The next day, on the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, under the urging of his mother, Zhang Dadao took some souvenirs and embarked on the road to visit the home of the "old man".

When I arrived in Beijing, it was already evening. called Liu Ping, Liu Ping said to pick him up, and Zhang Xuanqing stood on the side of the road and waited.

Compared with the bustle of small mountain villages, the huge city seems extremely deserted at this time, the streets are empty, and there are few people and cars.

When Liu Ping arrived by car, she saw Zhang Xuanqing standing alone on the street with a hemp bag.

Seeing this, the girl was satisfied, and inevitably gave birth to a touch of joy. smiled secretly, but quickly retracted, the car didn't get off, and stuck out his head: "You're here, get in the car." The expression on his face was calm.

Zhang Xuanqing didn't talk nonsense, raised the sack in his hand and asked him to open the trunk. Put the sack in it and get into the car.

"What did you just take?" asked Liu Ping as the car started, looking ahead, as if casually.

Zhang Xuanqing glared at her angrily: "I'm embarrassed to ask, my mother prepared a gift for your parents!"

Squeak –

The car that had just started suddenly stopped on the side of the road again, and Liu Ping's expression was no longer so calm: "You told your mother? What did you tell your mother to do? You don't know the relationship between the two of us, I just let you deceive ......."

"Okay, okay, you and I want my mother to know. It's not that my mom was there when you called, and you said no, you have to let me see your parents. Okay now, my mother heard that she directly misunderstood, and she prepared some mountain goods and asked me to come over to see the 'old man', how do you let me explain the Chinese New Year?" Zhang Xuanqing interrupted with a roll of his eyes.

"So you just push the boat and say that we have that kind of relationship?" Liu Ping's face turned red and white, panicked, ashamed and angry.

Zhang Xuanqing blinked and smiled: "What kind of relationship is that kind of relationship? Don't say nothing happened between us, and even if something did, do you think I'd tell my mom?

"Get out!" Liu Ping was even more annoyed, the kind of relationship she herself said meant the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend, the very pure kind, but it came to Zhang Xuanqing's mouth...... Anyway, there are no good words in the mouth of the stinky rascal!

Resisting the urge to slap this slut to death, Liu Da Meinu's heart moved slightly, and she thought: What is the reason he told his parents? Could it be that he wants to make himself ...... I don't know what I thought, the big beauty's face was slightly red, her chin was cocked, and her face was full of pride: "Zhang Xuanqing, let me tell you, don't try to fool me with this, let me pretend to be a couple with you in front of your parents." Don't think I don't know what you're up to!hmph!"

Zhang Xuanqing was puzzled for a while: "What do I have in mind?" I couldn't figure it out, and waved my hand impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and drive, beg me for help and pay it back, be careful that I don't do it!"

Pretend, keep pretending! Liu Ping pursed her lips disdainfully, but she still couldn't help but have a thought in her heart: Did he really not have any other ideas? But for some reason, he didn't want to believe it.

The car started again, and neither of them spoke again all the way. Liu Ping didn't know what to think in her heart, and her expression was very entangled, while Zhang Xuanqing was much simpler, recalling the hexagram obtained in front of the old Taoist priest's grave that day, and secretly wondering: Did Ma Xiaotang also come to Beijing?

On that day, he counted out that the place where Ma Xiaotang went had the word "north", so he agreed to Liu Ping to come to Beijing so easily. Although he knew the truth that "everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door and doesn't care about the frost on the tiles of others", he also knows that if he wants to find Ma Xiaotang, he will definitely run into trouble. But it's about ghosts and gods, it's about the old Taoist, and he still can't help but be a little nervous.

It's just that he is cautious by nature and doesn't want to take risks by himself, so he is entangled in his heart, hoping to find Ma Xiaotang on the one hand, and hoping not to find it on the other.

With this complication in mind, the car drove up to the front of a hotel. Zhang Xuanqing couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this: "I said Pingping, what do you mean by not going to your house?"

"Go to my house again, don't you think about it!" Liu Ping was angry, the relationship between the two was misunderstood by her family, and Zhang Xuanqing was taken to live in her house tonight...... Isn't that a jump into the Yellow River that can't be washed?

"Hurry up and get out of the car, I booked a room for you, and I'll see my dad tomorrow...... What are you doing in a daze, get out of the car. ”

"No, do you want to be faced? Zhang Xuanqing was not happy.

Liu Ping looked at him for a while, and then his tone finally softened: "Then where do you say you want to live? Or you live in my house, and I live here?"

"Uh...... Forget it. Zhang Xuanqing was discouraged for a while, opened the door and got out of the car, turned around and asked again: "What is the room number?"

“......”

The hotel that Liu Ping booked was quite high-end, and after sending Liu Ping away, Zhang Xuanqing also enjoyed the treatment of a rich man.

You must know that he has never lived in any high-end places before, at most it is a small broken hotel, the kind that costs more than 100 yuan a night, and then he sleeps in the bridge hole, this time it can be regarded as an eye-opener.

After taking a shower in the room, Zhang Xuanqing lay on the big bed, thinking about the future with his fingers.

Suddenly, the mobile phone rang, it was my mother calling, and I came up and asked him if he had arrived at the place, and saw that he had not seen the other party's parents.

Zhang Xuanqing smiled and said, "Mom, you can't take care of this." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

This guy made his mother angry and scolded: The little rabbit cub really can't believe it, every time, he promised to do things well at home, and he regretted it when he went out! When he called Zhang Xuanqing again, Zhang Xuanqing didn't answer.

This is also the norm for the two of them to get along with each other, because my mother is too strong, she doesn't listen to her verbosity. So Zhang Xuanqing learned to disobey yang and yin when he was a child, didn't you let me listen to you? Okay, I'll listen, but only when you listen to you. When you can't see me anymore, I'm sorry, what the hell am I doing.

Especially when he grew up, he stayed outside all the year round and couldn't go home a few times a year, so Zhang Xuanqing became even worse. Whatever his mother told him, he usually agreed first, but when he turned his head, he was so angry that his mother scolded him for being a white-eyed wolf.

Dealing with his mother, Zhang Xuanqing thought about the road ahead again: now he is back in Beijing, but he has no place to live. If you want to stay here, you have to earn money to rent a house. But with their own numerology...... It's better to make money than sleeping in a bridge hole, worry-free, trouble-free, and you can leave as much as you want.

The matter of finding Ma Xiaotang can be slowed down first, after all, he doesn't know his specific location. I only know that in the east of my hometown, there is a "north" character in the place name. But there are many places with the word "north" in the place names of China, and there are cities and counties in the big ones, and townships, towns, and villages in the small ones. If you look for it from place to place, even if you have arithmetic, you have to find the Year of the Monkey. So the matter of finding Ma Xiaotang can only rely on luck.

The mystery of the old Taoist's death can only be put aside temporarily before finding Ma Xiaotang, the deceased has passed away, even if Ma Xiaotang is found, nothing can be changed, but the matter of ghosts and gods ...... Maybe you can go to Datang to find information!

According to the statements in some novels, the closer to modern times, the less aura there is between heaven and earth, and the weaker the power of monks and ghosts. Some say that it is a ten-year catastrophe, and some say that Liu Bowen cut the dragon vein. But anyway, there is some truth to it.

There are many constraints in modern time and space, whether it is the government's suppression of superstition or something else. Instead of looking for ghosts and gods in modern times, it is better to go to Datang.

After clearing his thoughts, Zhang Xuanqing lay on the bed and fell asleep.
