Chapter Seventy-Six: Mind Reading
Before the people around me had dispersed, the young man gave me a disgraced look and walked away.
I looked at my "masterpiece" proudly, and in the indignation and praise of the people around me, the farce slowly came to an end.
Sure enough, it's good to have a different ability, although it is not the same as being able to bully ordinary people at will, but occasionally teach a street bully, I feel in a good mood, just like eating grandpa's sugar painting, sweet and greasy.
Lin Ziye cast an approving glance at me, and I proved that I am not useless with practical actions, at least in this aspect, I am still superior!
But one thing that makes me strange is that when I had a big argument with the young man, the old man still calmly used the little remaining syrup to make sugar paintings, and did not choose to avoid or come forward to stop us, I temporarily attributed it to the vicissitudes of life experienced by the old man, and his steady and low style.
But it still makes people can't help but admire him, but even if an ordinary old man has more experience and is capable, he will not be so calm and silent!
"Let's disperse, everyone......" I spread my hands and five fingers apart, and my arms made a chest expansion motion, signaling that the crowd should disperse.
In fact, I want to say a word to this group of onlookers, don't stop if you don't do anything. I used to encounter this kind of thing when I didn't have any special powers, but I walked away silently, because even if I stayed, it would be useless, and I couldn't bear to look at what was happening in front of me, so what did I stay for?
The young man is just a ruffian, you don't have to fear anything about him, worry that he will find someone to clean himself up afterwards? Joke, a crowd of people swarming to subdue him, he can't be an enemy of humans, right?
Fortunately, now I am different from ordinary people, and I don't worry about the retaliation of those scumbags, not to mention, in addition to the support of the people from the Ability Society, I also have Lin Ziye, a cute monster, as a backing, which is enough!
The crowd gradually dispersed, I smiled at the old man, and said, "Old man, don't be afraid of him in the future, if you have anything, just look for me, I will be there with the rumor!"
Helping others is the foundation of happiness, learn from Lei Feng's good example!
"Young man, I like to spoil things, but it's a pity for my syrup, eh...... Fortunately, you made the syrup dirty, so you can pay for it, this jar of syrup can probably make thirty sugar paintings, so let's do it, you pay me a hundred yuan, and this matter is over!" the old man smiled.
Na, Nani?
Did I hear you right, old man, I'm helping you, if it weren't for me, that guy might have overturned your mess, and then it wouldn't be this jar of syrup...... Of course, if I hadn't been angry with the young man's actions, I wouldn't have gotten the syrup in his face......
"Look, old man...... I saved your life, I knocked over your syrup, can you make a counteract between the two?"
Now I don't expect him to be grateful to me, as long as I don't pay a fine, I'm already secretly happy!
"Help me, huh, just you?" the old man snorted, as if he was looking down on me...... No, just look down on me!
"Hey, old man, don't take an inch, be careful that I will also learn from that bad boy, and give you a good time!" I said to him.
"You won't, I can read your heart, you're kind...... old man stroked his beard and said.
"Grandpa, stop playing, I really don't have that much money, otherwise, I will definitely give it to you!"
Hehe, read my heart? Just kidding, I can't read it myself, can you understand?
I rummaged through my pockets, and I really didn't have much money, dozens of dollars, and I could spend my days saving a little.
The old man stared at me for a while, I was a little uncomfortable, and then sighed and said, "Young man, don't be so impulsive in the future, always fight and kill, forget the money, my back hurts a little today, just go home and rest!"
Ahh
But hearing the old man say this, I felt more and more unhappy, and I thought about doing something for the old man, "Grandpa, let's send you home!"
When the old man cleaned up the sugar painting tools on the ground, in fact, it was just a few simple things, and it was quickly cleaned up, when he heard me say this, he turned his head and looked at Lin Ziye suddenly, and exhaled meaningfully, and said, "It's okay, come to my house to help me make syrup!"
Hehe, is the old man marveling at Lin Ziye as a celestial person? Yes, Lin Ziye and Ah Cha are combined into one "Lin Ziye" mode, which is the product of the unity of Yumeng, anyone who sees it, feels relaxed and happy, beautiful and delicious!
"Midnight, come and help the old man with the tools of the sugar painting, maybe you can eat the sugar painting tonight!" I smiled, Lin Ziye threw me a "I understand" look, walked to the old man happily in three steps and two steps, picked up a pen used as a "finishing touch", and played with it.
"Don't make a fuss, come with me!" the old man coughed twice and staggered away.
I winked at Lin Ziye and motioned to follow.
My intuition told me that this old man was unusual.
The old man disappeared in the crowd, the two of us followed him through an alley, and in a blink of an eye, walking to an inaccessible place, a cool breeze burst out behind me, and I asked Lin Ziyedao, "Midnight, do you feel cold?"
Lin Ziye looked at me, picked up the pen in his hand, knocked on my head, and said, "I've always been cool and silky~"
Forget it, it's useless to ask, Lin Ziye's body is different from mine......
But who would live in this wilderness, is it ......
A black line appeared on my left forehead, and the corners of my mouth twitched slightly and said to the old man in front of me: "Grandpa, this, let's, where are we going?"
The old man smiled strangely, and said faintly, "Didn't I say it? Go to my house!"
I gasped, and sure enough, he was...... Now it seems that the moment the old man turned around, his face was still a little blue, this is ...... I can't imagine it more and more, on the other hand, Lin Ziye, happily playing with the pen holder, hey, you can see the situation clearly!
......
"Oh, here it is! I'll live here. The old man looked at the house in front of him and said.
I followed the old man all the way, and finally stopped here, I looked up, and I thought that the old man was "that kind of object", and I was immediately relieved, but I immediately lifted it up!
The residence in front of you, which is as simple as a house, is clearly a villa!
"Grandpa, don't be kidding, this is your home?" I asked.
You think I'm stupid, who has such a cow villa and still sells sugar paintings on the street?
The old man smiled, didn't say anything, and walked towards the villa.
No, the old man in front of him is really the owner of this villa?
Lin Ziye and I followed anxiously.
This villa is a three-storey structure, and from the outside, the unique magnificence of the villa and the tranquility of the suburbs have a sense of interest, which is also related to the low-key character of the old man!
As he approached the door, the old man took out something similar to a remote control from his pocket, pressed the green button in the middle towards the door, and the door opened.
I'll go, such a high-class thing...... It seems that what the old man said is indeed very true!
At this time, a middle-aged man in a tuxedo and bow tie walked out of the house, bowed to the old man, and said to the old man: "Master, you are back so early......
"Oh, I want to come back for a while...... " the old man said with a blank face.
"Please come in...... middle-aged man stretched out his hand to send it in, and the old man walked straight in with his hands behind his back.
Hey, is this acting? I feel like I'm seeing something that I shouldn't be seeing in reality.
Just as the two of us were about to follow in, the middle-aged man stopped him and said, "The two of you are the lord's guests, please change your shoes in the "temporary rest area" before entering." ”
Just as we were about to come according to the rules, the old man turned his head and said lightly, "If they come in the future, all the rules will not exist!"
The middle-aged man was stunned, his face immediately changed color, and he said respectfully: "I'm sorry, please come in!"
After speaking, I bent down to us, I nodded awkwardly, and led Lin Ziye in.
"Sit down!" said the old man, who was already sitting on the sofa facing the door, with a smile unchanged, welcoming us.
"Oh, oh......" I hurriedly chose a sofa close to the old man's seat, and Lin Ziye also sat down next to me.
Compared with the outside of the villa, the interior is much more simple, without the slightest arrogance, and a few sets of simple furniture look extremely lonely in the empty hall.
"Grandpa, you said that your family is so rich, why do you still sell sugar paintings on the street?" I told my heart.
The old man looked at the tools for making sugar paintings at his feet and opened the conversation.
In the early years, the old man walked in the north and south of the river as a sugar painting artist, and finally saved up a family business by his own hard work, and this villa was also bought a few years ago.
With the growth of his son, he is also in his old age, and he can't do anything, but he still remembers the craft of making sugar painting very clearly, so in his spare time, he set up a stall on Shunhua Street, making money is secondary, and passing the time is the purpose.
The old man's words solved many of my doubts, and I finally came to the conclusion that the rich are idle......
"It's really boring!" the old man sighed.
Alas, old man, are you answering the phone? No, I thought about it in my heart, how could you answer it?
"Hehe, you're wondering why I know what you're thinking, right!" the old man stroked his beard and smiled.
I looked at him in surprise, and then looked at Lin Ziye, who was also at a loss.
"No, I don't believe it, so do you know what Lin Ziye is thinking now?"
To bluff me, it must be to bluff me!
"She's wondering how much of my candy painting would be better tonight...... Okay, I'll make a few more for you later!" the old man said as he looked at Lin Ziye lovingly.
"Thank you, thank you, grandpa!" Lin Ziye replied obediently.
"Click" A thunderclap flashed from the bottom of my heart, this old man, it's not simple!
