I sat cross-legged in front of the incense burner, placed the mirror opposite, and began to recite the spell to invite immortals taught me by Hu’s mother.
"The sky and the earth are full of spirit, the purple air is rising, the fragrance leads the way, summoning the gods, gods, humans and ghosts from all directions, descending rapidly."
I have recited it about a dozen times, but the incense in front of me has not changed much, and I feel nothing strange about my body.
I looked in the mirror, but there was nothing.
According to what Hu Ma said, if I invite the immortal family, I can see their image in the mirror.
Next, I told the story of Sister Yuan to the air, saying that I was encountering difficulties now and wanted to ask the fairy family for help.
After I finished speaking, there was no change in the incense, but I vaguely felt that the temperature in the room seemed to have dropped a bit, and it was chilly.
I don’t know if it was my psychology, but at this time I felt that the room was full of people, and my body started to get hairy, but when I looked around, there was nothing.
At this moment, the incense stick on the left suddenly snapped and exploded with sparks.
Looking at the smoke, it also turned into a spiral shape, swirling upward, which was very strange.
Then, I saw a dark figure standing behind me in the mirror.
It looks like it's a man.
The hairs all over my body stood up. I didn’t know what was coming, and I didn’t dare to move. I only knew that I might have succeeded and invited the immortal family.
I quickly said what I just said again and begged the Xian family for help.
After I finished speaking, I didn't get any response, but the black shadow in the mirror disappeared in a flash.
At the same time, all the cigarettes returned to normal.
When all the incense burned out, I turned on the light and saw that the offerings had not changed, except that half of the five glasses of wine had gone down.
According to Hu Ma, if the Immortal family moved the offerings, it would be in compliance with my request.
But I don’t know whether it was an immortal family or a wandering ghost who came at that time.
After this incident, Sister Yuan and I waited uneasily for three days, looking forward to a miracle.
As a result, on the afternoon of the fourth day, news came that Mr. Chang had suffered a sudden stroke while eating out two days ago and fell off his chair.
The situation was very serious at that time. Mr. Chang broke his head, foamed at the mouth, and fell unconscious. Fortunately, he was sent to the hospital in time to save his life.
According to insiders, Mr. Chang was eating his meal when he suddenly felt like he had seen a ghost. He trembled all over and fell to the ground after shouting.
Although his life was saved, now his legs can no longer be used, and he can't speak. He can only lie in bed and be waited on. He can't control his urine and feces. I'm afraid he won't be able to recover even if he's three or two years old. .
After hearing the news, Sister Yuan and I were dumbfounded. It took us a long time to believe that it was true.
Never in my dreams did I imagine that this matter would be resolved in this way.
She hugged me excitedly, crying and laughing, just like a child, and said that the immortal family really showed up and helped us deal with the old pervert.
Since Mr. Chang has suffered a stroke and is paralyzed, and he doesn't know when he will recover, it is impossible to trouble Sister Yuan again for the time being.
But I was still a little worried. After several days, I didn't see any movement from Mr. Chang, so I felt completely relieved.
But one weekend afternoon, Sister Yuan hurried to the hotel and called me aside.
She brought bad news.
Mr. Chang has recovered a bit in the past few days and can barely speak. This morning he asked someone to come over with a message and asked me to come by name.
I was a little stunned. What did Mr. Chang want me to do when he asked me to go there?
Sister Yuan said worriedly that I should have hit Mr. Chang that day and caused him to have a stroke. Now that Mr. Chang has asked me to go over, it is more likely to be bad than good.
I also fell silent. If this was really the case, then I would definitely not get any good results if I went there. It was not certain whether I could save my life.
Sister Yuan said that she reacted quickly at the time and had already told them that I resigned and would no longer work in the hotel.
Therefore, now I can only leave temporarily to avoid the limelight, and I can't be harmed by her affairs.
Sister Yuan's words made my heart tremble.
She doesn't want to hurt me, so why would I want to hurt her?
Sister Yuan shed tears and said, "Xiaofan, I've thought about it, I can't harm you because of my sister's affairs. You also have your own life, and you can't be a waiter here for the rest of your life."
That day was the first time I shed tears since I left home.
On the escape train, I didn’t cry.
Wandering on the streets of Harbin, I didn't cry.
But now Sister Yuan wants me to leave, and I'm crying.
Seeing my dejected look, Sister Yuan added that she had already found two places for me to go.
One is from Aunt Hu, because Aunt Hu has long since taken a fancy to me and said that I was born to be a good person. Moreover, Aunt Hu has already seen that I will be in a big disaster within three years, so I became her apprentice. It can eliminate disasters and avoid disasters.
No matter what she said, I just shook my head in disagreement.
Because I know that doing things like showing off one's horse is usually done as a last resort. Once you do this, you will never be able to leave it for the rest of your life.
What good, normal person would be willing to take this path?
When you have a problem, asking for help from an immortal is completely different from asking for help.
I always feel that my life can be broader and more exciting.
I hope to find my own way out, rather than succumbing to fate or letting others arrange it.
As for the three-year catastrophe that Hu Ma mentioned, I didn’t take it to heart at all.
Ever since I was little, I have been told by great immortals that I will suffer three disasters in my life, but I no longer care.
Sister Yuan had no choice but to say that if you don't agree, she will send you to work at an old classmate of mine.
She said that her old classmate's business was doing well, and I could learn how to do business and start my life again.
But I told Sister Yuan that I don’t want to go to Hu’s mother or her classmates. The world is so big, so let me go out alone.
In fact, there was something I didn't say in my heart: Mr. Chang has great supernatural powers. If he knew that it was Sister Yuan who arranged for me to go there, Sister Yuan would be implicated sooner or later.
But at that time, I could not have imagined that not long after, Master Chang and I would have some intersections and entanglements again, but that was a story for another day.
Sister Yuan had nothing to do with my persistence. She stretched out her hand to wipe the tears on my face, and then hugged me gently.
I didn't move, but my heart was bleeding.
I told Sister Yuan that whenever anything happens in the future, just call me and I will come at any time.
Because I was afraid that Master Chang's people would come looking for me, I immediately packed my luggage and left the hotel.
When we were saying goodbye, Sister Yuan arranged my clothes and spoke to me seriously.
"Xiaofan, I hope you can get ahead. Remember, if you have something happy outside in the future, you can call me. But if someone bullies you, don't tell me, because I can't help you, and I can't Anyone can help you, you know?”
I gritted my teeth, tried hard not to shed tears, and nodded heavily.
I naturally understand that Sister Yuan wants me to be strong outside, no matter how big or small the matter is, I have to carry it through myself.
She gave me 5,000 yuan and said she hoped I would live a better life, but I refused to accept it because she was also having a hard time now.
When I left, Sister Yuan kept waving to me from behind. I didn’t dare to look back at all and forced myself to look up at the sky.
I still remember that the sky that day was blue and vast, just like my future, full of unknowns.
After leaving the hotel, I first found a hotel to stay, and then wandered around the labor market on Fushun Street for two days. There happened to be a company recruiting salesmen. Although the salary was not high, food and accommodation were included.
I filled out a form and was notified to go to work the next day.
I was so happy. I had never had such a smooth experience since I was a child. I even suspected that the invitation to the immortal had an effect that day and that my fortune began to change.
Unexpectedly, the location of the new job is not too far from Sister Yuan's hotel. It is only a few kilometers away in the famous Military Industrial Institute in Harbin.
The full name of military industry is Military Engineering College, which is now Harbin Engineering University.
This place should be well-known throughout the country. It is China's first higher military academy, and is referred to as Harbin Military Industry. However, Harbin people are accustomed to calling this place military industry, and basically do not add the word "Harbin".
The person in charge of the company, whose surname is Su, is in his forties and is from Sichuan.
He is a bit bald, of medium height, and very enthusiastic. When we met, he asked me to call him brother.
After arranging the dormitory, I looked at the completely unfamiliar environment and felt very emotional.
My new life has begun again.
That night when I was packing my luggage, I found a letter secretly slipped in by Sister Yuan.
After reading the contents of the letter, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was like a bolt from the blue that struck me.
