Chapter 25 Lu Qingwen's scheming
Huang Chaojie lives in a newly built high-end community, according to our innkeeper, it is not too far from here, only about ten minutes walk, so Lu Qingwen and I walked slowly along the street, I felt that she had something to say to me alone.
Sure enough, Lu Qingwen didn't go far before she said, "Brother Zhang, do you still have an opinion on me?" β
I said calmly, "No." β
Xiaoxue snickered in my heart: "Hehe, I'm going to start confessing!" β
I frowned secretly, why did Xiaoxue always think she liked me? However, Lu Qingwen used to call me Brother Xuanming, but now she is called Brother Zhang, which seems to be a little different.
Lu Qingwen said: "I think you are very good to others, like brothers and sisters, you are very polite to me, and you have a sense of distance." β
I didn't answer, I thought to myself: You hurt me so badly, I didn't treat you as an enemy, what else do you want?
Lu Qingwen sighed faintly: "I was ignorant before, it was really annoying, and you became the way you are now, it was also caused by my inability to calm down and act rashly back then, and you should be angry with me, but now I want to try my best to remedy it." In the past, my grandfather taught me, I was not convinced, and when I went to your house last year to ask you daoqian, I was still a little reluctant in my heart, but now I really know that I was wrong. β
This was her sincere daoqian once, so I turned my head and smiled at her: "It's all in the past, and I still mention what it does, but our life experiences are different and we belong to different types of people, so the distance you said may be generated by this." β
Lu Qingwen's mood immediately improved: "It's no different, in fact, I admire your calmness, ability and strength, if I was in your environment, I wouldn't be able to bear it for a long time." I really want to help you, so I hope you can treat me as a friend with all your heart, and I will do my best to do what needs me to do. β
When she said this, her expression was serious, her eyes were straight and clear, and she was obviously sincere, so I nodded: "It seems that you have really grown up, and your grandfather doesn't have to worry about you anymore." β
Lu Qingwen blushed a little, showing a rare shy appearance of a girl, avoiding my eyes: "It's as if I made trouble for my grandfather." β
βhahaβ¦β¦β
As we move on, my mood has improved a lot, after all, it is better to have more friends than one more enemy, and it is better to be able to resent one person than to hate one. She did come to confess to me, but she apologized and forged.
After not walking a few steps, Lu Qingwen asked again: "Brother Zhang, you have found all eight jade talismans, when do you want to go back?" β
"Is this ......" I have a hard time answering, I have thought about this question many times, if I could do it all over again, how would I arrange my life and experiences? The bigger question is, is going back in time and starting all over again? Do I have any memories of the present, can I jump out of the clutches of fate?
I told the truth: "I haven't figured it out yet, because I don't know if I can remember what happened now after I crossed over, and what will happen to the people who travel through this plane." β
Lu Qingwen immediately said: "Of course you can't remember the present, otherwise you will know what will happen in the future, and you will become a living immortal, which will be against the sky." Going back to the past, it's just that when you are faced with a choice, you will make other choices because of your different minds, and then the results will be different. To put it simply, there is a chance to make a new choice. β
There was some truth to that, but how could she think so deeply? I looked at Lu Qingwen suspiciously, this time she didn't dodge, she looked at me bravely, and her beautiful phoenix eyes flashed with brilliance: "If you can go back to the past, can you go back to the day in Beikeng Village?" Maybe you will agree to worship my grandfather as a teacher, with your qualifications and hard work, you will definitely be able to make great achievements, and you will not have to suffer so much and suffer so much. β
I was stunned, I'm not a fool, how could I not understand what she meant? She is really in love with me, but she also knows very well that the relationship between me and Lin Mei is unbreakable, and I can't fall in love with someone else, so she hopes that I can choose her when I have a chance to choose again. Although this idea is somewhat naΓ―ve and ridiculous, her feelings are real and touching.
Xiaoxue smiled proudly in my heart: "How about it, let me say it!" Who am I, a fox fairy for more than 800 years, who can hide from me in my heart? But I also know you're not going to like her, so I'm not worried at all. Hmph, if you become Lu Chengshan's apprentice, it's no wonder if you don't suffer from her all day long! β
I couldn't say anything too hurtful, so I said, "I haven't found the jade talisman yet, so I haven't thought about it yet, so I'll talk about it later." β
"Hmm." Lu Qingwen responded, slightly disappointed.
We walked on, and after walking for a while, I said, "Gao Feng, this guy is pretty good. β
Lu Qingwen pursed her lips: "Don't you think he's very superficial?" I know him very well, he is good to me now, on the one hand, to make my grandfather pay attention to him, on the other hand, I haven't become his girlfriend yet, if I marry him, he won't be so good to me, how can he be like you and Lin Mei. β
I'm speechless, it's better not to talk about this matter, the more I talk about it, the more chaotic it becomes.
Xiaoxue also sighed in my heart: "You and Lin Mei are indeed very enviable, and I am also jealous and envious, but fortunately, I have preconceived ideas and are firmly in half of the country, hehe......"
ββ¦β¦β
After a while, I found the community where Huang Chaojie lived, he was already waiting for me at the door, and when he saw me, he immediately shook hands with me, warmly said welcome, and then looked Lu Qingwen up and down a few times: "This is ......"
I don't know what to say about my relationship with Lu Qingwen, Lu Qingwen has stretched out her hand very generously: "My name is Lu Qingwen, and I am his friend." β
"Oh, hello, hello." Huang Chaojie shook hands with Lu Qingwen very decently, and then winked at me, "Your friend is very beautiful!" β
Is this guy implying that I'm a playboy? Lu Qingwen smiled: "Xiexie compliments." β
When I walked inside, Huang Chaojie kept looking at me with some doubts: "I take the liberty to ask, I haven't seen you for a few days, your hair has turned a lot gray?" β
I said seriously: "Brother Huang is a doctor, and I was just trying to let you see what is wrong with my body, but Weishenme's hair suddenly turned a lot grayer?" β
Huang Chaojie glanced me up and down several times and said: "I'm not an expert in this area, but I still know the general cause of juvenile gray hair, which is generally the decline of the pigment cell growth function of the hair, and it cannot produce enough melanin particles." The reason for the impact may be mental, nutritional, and disease, and all of a sudden you have increased a lot, and your body looks normal, so you can rule out the nutritional and disease aspects, it should be mental overtension and fatigue......"
I do often get overstressed and tired, but this is definitely not the main reason, and I asked, "If a person who originally had a life span of sixty years has become twenty years for some reason, does he age at the age of nineteen as he does in his fifties?" β
"Shou Yuan? You're talking about how old the fortune teller is going to live, right? That will definitely not lead to premature aging, only sudden death. Besides, I don't believe in fate, could it be that hundreds of people died at the same time in a plane crash, and these hundreds of people deserve to die and just get together? An earthquake happened, tens of thousands of people died, and they were all destined to die at the same time? This is ridiculous! β
Huang Chaojie was a little excited, probably thinking that he was too extreme, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm far away." I think you're just under too much mental pressure, didn't the ancients have a saying that they were white-headed overnight? No matter what happens, there is nothing that cannot be overlooked. β
I can only smile bitterly and tell a doctor about longevity and fate, isn't it self-deprecating?
Huang Chaojie's house is on the fifth floor, and when I entered the door, I found that there was a young woman inside, tall, shoulder-length short hair, goose egg face, not very dazzling, and a group of harmony is also very blessed. Huang Chaojie introduced that it was his girlfriend, named Xu Fanping, who was an accountant.
After urging Fanping to say hello to us, he was busy in the kitchen to prepare the meals, and Huang Chaojie accompanied me and Lu Qingwen to drink and chat. I secretly observed his home, a three-bedroom apartment, decorated simply and elegantly, quite tasteful, in line with the identity of the "turtle" medical doctor. In his study, there are many medical books, a set of computers, and a zoomed-in photo of him and Xu Fanping on the wall...... Everything is normal, this is a family with good economic conditions, I don't see anything wrong, Lu Qingwen exchanged glances with me, and she didn't see anything wrong.
While chatting, I asked coldly, "Brother Huang, have you heard of the Xuanming Sect?" β
Huang Chaojie was stunned for a moment: "This, this...... Haven't heard of it. β
Xiaoxue immediately said in my heart: "He said a lie, he must have heard of it, if he doesn't say it, I will confuse him!" β
I stared at Huang Chaojie: "I'm looking for revenge from Cangwu Daoist, as far as I know, he is a member of the Xuanming Sect, this matter is very important to me, if Brother Huang knows, please say it directly!" β
Huang Chaojie showed a slightly embarrassed look, glanced at the kitchen, and said in a low voice: "Actually, I have heard of the name Xuanming Sect, it is said that it is a group of very mysterious people, all of which are related to chasing corpses and ghosts. β
I asked, "Do you know where their people are?" β
Huang Chaojie shook his head again and again: "How can I know this, but I heard that in the past, in a valley not far southwest of the Immortal Temple, there was a very terrifying ghost cave, and no one dared to approach it...... Uh, I advise you not to go to them, these people are really scary. β
I asked Lu Qingwen a few words, but I didn't ask anything useful, but Huang Chaojie was very interested in spells and repeatedly asked to show him. He is my savior, and I can't shirk it, so I took two raw eggs and grabbed them in my hands on both sides. In less than two minutes, one egg was cooked, but one egg showed signs of freezing.
Then Lu Qingwen performed a trick of turning wine into water, these are not actually spells, they are used to satisfy the curiosity of laymen, and the real spells may not be good-looking.
After eating, I said goodbye to Lu Qingwen, and when I left, Xiaoxue quietly left me and stayed at Huang Chaojie's house. Anyway, he saved my life, and I can't use coerced confessions just because I have the slightest suspicion, but it's not too much to let Xiaoxue stay in his house and eavesdrop.
