I stared at Zhong Qiu in disbelief.

Zhong Qiu said to the innkeeper fearlessly.

"Hello, boss, open a room."

Not again......

The embarrassment of being chased and asked by the proprietress in the dilapidated small hotel reappeared.

Why did Zhong Qiu slam the door so much!

"Two!"

I'm determined to open two.

"But we're here to do something, and it's a waste to open two rooms."

My hairs stood on end.

Please, big brother, when you come to find someone, you say that you come to find someone, and when you come to investigate things, you say that you come to investigate things, don't be so vague!

......

I can't look at the word anymore.

"Two rooms, no negotiable! Or you'll sleep in the hallway! ”

This time, I resolutely can't slander Zhong Qiu anymore.

"But ......"

Zhong Qiu was still hesitating here, and I couldn't wait to watch the boss speak.

"Hello, boss, open two rooms."

Then, under the hint of my gaze, the boss spoke.

"I'm sorry, there's only one left."

……

I suspect the boss did it on purpose, but I have no proof.

In the end, I blushed, and Zhong Qiu was very happy because he saved money.

The two of us slowly walked into the elevator under the boss's "I know" gaze.

I felt like my face had been dropped on the floor at the hotel front desk, and I couldn't pick it up.

When I entered the room, I was most glad that it was a double room with two single beds, and if it was a double room, I would never have been able to tell.

Later in the evening, the Master sneaked into our room.

"I inquired, there was an old man alive from that time."

The master has finally done a good thing.

"Oh? Let's take a closer look. ”

Zhong Qiu asked with interest.

"That old man is also surnamed Zhang, and he was a relative of Zhang Yanjin who couldn't beat him, but because he knew a little fortune telling, there were still a lot of people looking for him at that time, although he ...... later."

Later, with Yuqingguan, there was nothing for him, and even several industries that were good back then were squeezed by Yuqingguan.

The better ones are like this grandfather of the Zhang family who changed their careers, and the bad ones are just like Master Ji who was depressed and unhappy, did good things all his life, and finally died with hatred.

"The old man of the Zhang family is now in the west of the town, and I will send you the address in a while."

After saying this, Master De pestered Zhong Qiu for a long time, crying and making trouble, although Zhong Qiu finally did not agree to accept Master De as an apprentice, but promised him several times, he would definitely help him get out of the sea of suffering, and he would definitely not abandon him.

The master was reluctant to give up, and left step by step.

"I feel like I'm a bit of a scumbag."

Burst!

I squirted out a mouthful of water.

Well, the master is like a miserable little daughter-in-law who accuses Zhong Qiu of the scumbag's behavior, crying, making trouble and hanging herself.

It's kind of disgusting.

I shivered and shook the goosebumps off my body, and I couldn't think about it when I thought about it.

The next day, Zhong Qiu and I got up early in the morning to go around the town, and by the way, we went to a relative's house where Zhang Yanjin couldn't beat him.

But when we passed by the front desk of the hotel, the owner looked at us a little bit......

Yesterday it was "you know", but today he was so shocked that it was a little hard to describe our eyes.

Ahem.

Also, after all, the master came at night, and he didn't wear a Taoist robe yet, and he was still a little sneaky, and he looked at people sneakily.

It's no wonder that the boss thinks too much.

Zhong Qiu looks like a hanger, I am a quiet lady, and a bad old man.

These three people are gathered in a room, and it is indeed strange to look at it.

But now my skin has become thicker and thicker in the process of contact with Zhong Qiu.

I also ignored my boss's gaze and walked out generously.

Anyway, yesterday's face still fell on the ground at the front desk, and if it falls again today, it's not a big deal.

Zhong Qiu and I walked all the way to the west, and then I noticed a strange place.

"Zhong Qiu."

I stabbed Zhong Qiu in the arm.

"Have you noticed that everyone who lives here has a red rope on their arm?"

The rope was braided in a nice way, and it was tied in a cross-buckle knot.

People seem to be afraid that others will not find out that they have brought a red rope, but it is already early autumn, but they want to show off this arm wearing a red rope, even if some of the arms are already frozen blue.

"Master Dade told me last night that this is the handiwork of Yu Qingguan."

Yuqingguan has been in this town for more than forty years.

Zhang Yanjin's famous battle back then has developed until now, and the people in the whole town believe in Yuqingguan very much.

On the fifteenth day of the first month of each month, Yuqingguan will also hold a blessing ceremony, where the master of Yuqingguan will bless everyone and wear a red rope that symbolizes good fortune.

It is said to be a blessing, but in fact, it is a circle of money, and these red ropes are all exchanged for real money by ordinary people.

However, because the name of Yuqingguan is too loud, the people of the town are proud to be able to wear the red rope, if anyone does not wear the red rope, they will be excluded by the whole town, saying that they are unblessed.

I pursed my lips with some disdain, Yu Qingguan is really good at grasping consumer psychology.

In my opinion, this red rope is the same as a commodity, not to mention whether it is a blessing or not, but the goods are sold quite gimmicky.

Chatting all the way, we walked to Grandpa Zhang's house.

The building is a bit old, it looks like it's at least 20 years old, and the community doesn't even have a gate, let alone any property and greenery.

The walls are already peeling off their eyes.

If it weren't for the address given by the trusted master, Zhong Qiu and I really couldn't imagine that there were still residents in such a house.

Coming to the sixth floor, which is the top floor, we found Grandpa Zhang's home.

The gate is a little rusty and looks like it's in disrepair.

There is no one in Grandpa Zhang's family, and the children have already gone to the city to work, leaving an old man to live on the sixth floor, which shows that he usually doesn't go out much, which is also the most common lonely old man.

"Knock knock!"

Zhong Qiu knocked on the door, and half a day passed, and there was no response.

"Is there no one at home?"

Zhong Qiu knocked on the door again, this time with some force, watching the door being knocked on with a crackling sound, I was afraid that Zhong Qiu would use a little more force, and the door would be knocked directly broken.

"Who?"

We waited for another long time, and finally we got a response.

It should be that the old man is too old and his ears are not good, so he has not heard it all the time.

"Anyone?"
