Chapter 122: In the Dark
If he said before, it can be interpreted as that he is just talking nonsense.
But the latter sentence really sent chills down Jiang Jingyun's back, because to some extent, he was right.
However, Jiang Jingyun still pulled out a smile, and said to him calmly: "Old man, don't be joking, I'm not from this world, where else can I come from?" ”
The old man sneered, and muttered a dialect that he didn't know where it was.
Jiang Jingyun didn't understand, but before she could ask, the man looked at her and continued with a warning in his eyes: "Little girl, let me tell you the truth, you have violated the fate that this body should have experienced, and the so-called changing your life against the sky requires a great price. ”
"And what do you think I should do?" Jiang Jingyun heard the last question.
In fact, she was a little nervous because of the old man's words, but thinking about it, she didn't know the purpose of this person's appearance.
In case he was just blind and purely wanted to cheat money, she could just ignore what he said.
If it's true......
Then she really had to think about how to deal with it, and at the same time wondered what the so-called price he was about to pay was what he said.
The old man chuckled, as if satisfied that she had finally listened to his words, and then said to her earnestly: "Of course, you must consciously accept your own fate, and correct as much as possible your influence on the destined pair of men and women, only in this way will you be liberated." ”
"Relief?" Jiang Jingyun was speechless and frowned when she heard his last words.
Apparently she didn't agree with the solution proposed by the strange old man in front of her.
"What if what I want is not liberation, but to live well in this life?" Jiang Jingyun looked at him and asked.
The old man shook his head and sighed when he heard this, looked at her with a look of disappointment and pity, and replied: "This is impossible, even if you don't want to, God will find a way to get everything back on track, but when the time comes, your ending...... It will only be more pathetic. ”
"That's right." Jiang Jingyun smiled bitterly when she heard this: "That's really no way." ”
In any case, she could not honestly accept the fate of the original body as he said.
Seeing Jiang Jingyun like this, the old man didn't say anything anymore, and quietly watched Jiang Jingyun turn around and walk towards the depths of the alley, and her figure gradually disappeared into the night.
And the old man who saw her leave sighed slightly after a while, and lamented with an inexplicable expression of regret on his face: "The little girl's courage is commendable, but her personal strength is limited, and everything in the dark has a certain number that cannot be changed by manpower, but it's a pity, it's a pity, I don't know how many innocent people will be affected this time." ”
At the same time, Jiang Jingyun walked out of the uninhabited alley, and when she arrived at the door of the house, Qin Mian didn't know where to come from, looking at her and greeting her with a smile: "You're back, what are you going to do tonight?" ”
"Eat, eat, eat, know how to eat all day long!" Jiang Jingyun glared at him.
Qin Mian was inexplicably a little stunned by her yelling, and then simply stared at her with an innocent face and looked at her with big eyes and asked, "What's wrong?" Who you off? ”
She couldn't help but complain: "Don't you know who made me angry?" ”
Didn't you even hear yourself talking to yourself clearly some time ago?
"I don't know." Qin Mian replied very calmly.
Jiang Jingyun was speechless for a while when she heard this, and suddenly remembered that she had warned this guy before and asked him not to eavesdrop on his own affairs, but I didn't expect him to really do it honestly?
And Qin Mian was a little weak by Jiang Jingyun's inquiring eyes for a while.
But he can't tell the other party that he left for a while because of something temporary, so he doesn't know what happened just now, right?
And Jiang Jingyun obviously didn't have his mind on him, and soon stopped worrying about his problems.
Her heart was still more and more uneasy because of the old man's words, after all, he was indeed right in some of his words.
And according to common sense, it is impossible for this old man to know about her.
However, in the next few days, Jiang Jingyun still deliberately pretended that nothing happened, because although the old man's words were very much like some kind of prophecy, this kind of thing was not something she could control in the end.
The only thing I can do is to do my best, as for the so-called destiny.
She couldn't accept it, it was not easy to live a new life, and what the old man said was no different from the so-called suicide.
So it is impossible for her to do so, and it is impossible for her to give up this opportunity given by God easily.
But even so, she actually still cared about the words of the Taoist priest.
The hints he mentioned were quietly kept in his heart.
Fortunately, Jiang Jingyun spent a period of calm days next, and the dividends that Jishitang should give her every month were not less than her.
The business of the store she opened has always been very good, and she has made a lot of profits.
Jiang Jingyun had some savings because of this, perhaps because of this, she gave her the illusion that everything was fine.
Jiang Jingyun decided to discuss with Xie Wei'an and open a second chain store.
Thinking that since it had been decided, Jiang Jingyun went out to her own store on this day.
It's just that when I arrived at the place, I found that under the familiar bronzing plaque, the red door was sealed at some point.
"Confiscated? What's going on? Jiang Jingyun muttered in a low voice.
Then she went around to the back door and found it closed.
She raised her hand and knocked on the door, and it wasn't long before someone came to open the door, and it was the first errand boy she had hired in the store.
When the young man saw Jiang Jingyun, he seemed to see a savior: "Boss, you're here!" The little one is going to find you according to Mr. Xie's instructions! ”
"What the hell is the seal at the door?" Jiang Jingyun asked directly.
When the guy heard this, he instantly frowned and said, "Hey, we don't know about this matter, boss, you better go up and ask Mr. Xie." ”
"Hmm." Jiang Jingyun was eager to know the reason, so she quickened her pace.
After going up to the second floor, he found Xie Wei'an standing by the window on the second floor, with his back to her.
After hearing the movement, he turned to look at her, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and say hello: "Miss Jiang, you're here." ”
Jiang Jingyun nodded and asked directly, "Tell me, what happened?" ”
She hadn't been here for two days, and the originally bustling shop had become extremely deserted in the blink of an eye.
Although she knew that most of the reasons must be because of the seal at the door.
But even so, she still felt puzzled and did not understand the specific reason why her shop was seized.
Could it be that she really violated the rules? This is also what Jiang Jingyun is most worried about, after all, she really doesn't know a little about the laws of this Xia Kingdom.
This is indeed her carelessness, after all, she is not studying this major, and she is not very sensitive to this.
