I was already a little sleepy, but Shen Xing's words cheered me up.
I quickly called him and said to him, "What the hell are you doing? Are you looking for a coffin lid?"
Shen Xing's breathing was slightly out of breath, and he said on the phone: "Find a good coffin cover, which can make more money than cell phone stickers. Isn't this just to save the travel expenses to Harbin!"
I was speechless: "Who are you looking for a coffin lid for, living or dead?"
He said, "It's a long story. I'll tell you when I get to Harbin. I don't have time to talk about it now."
At this time, I heard something wrong with the voice on the phone. It seemed like I was in the wild, and there was a whistling wind, which was quite scary.
I asked him: "Where are you? Why are you hearing ghosts crying and wolves howling?"
He said: "Where is the ghost? There is no ghost. I am watching the scenery on the mountain. It is almost July 15th these two days, and the moon is very full."
July 15th? Ah, yes, yes, it’s almost July 15th, the Ghost Festival!
I didn’t believe what he said at all. I said to him, “Stop talking nonsense. It’s almost July 15th. You went up the mountain in the middle of the night to see the crappy scenery. Tell me, what on earth were you doing?”
He then said: "It's nothing. It's true that an old man's coffin lid was lost. There are also a few ghosts. They just killed me. I'm on my way back to my residence now."
I asked him: "Then where did you come from?"
He said: "Mass graves!"
I couldn't help but give a thumbs up over the phone, Shen Xing, it's you as expected. This business scope is too wide, I know how to apply film and catch ghosts, and I even go up the mountain to find coffin lids for people in the middle of the night!
I didn’t continue to ask about the coffin lid, so I asked him when he would come to Harbin. He breathed a little, and then replied with two words.
"tomorrow."
Oops, this is really an unexpected surprise. If so, I can see Shen Xing tomorrow?
But this journey is a bit far, and Shen Xing said that even if he came over, it would be late at night when he arrived in Harbin.
I said it doesn’t matter if it’s night, I’ll pick you up, and you tell me the flight number and what time you’ll arrive.
Shen Xing said that there is no need to pick up the phone yet. I still have something to do when I arrive in Harbin. You can send me an address and I will go there by myself when I am done.
In this way, Shen Xing and I made an agreement, told him the address, and then hung up the phone.
It was already past twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. I was tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep, so I just got up and wrote a novel.
At this time, my book was almost finished. It took me more than half a year to write it, and it has exceeded one million words.
This is my first "child", and it must have a happy and beautiful ending, so I thought hard in front of the computer and pondered the plot of the final battle.
Because at this time, I have already written about Mr. Hu San, leading the army of the Immortal Family to fight the villain. The protagonist has also awakened the memory of his past life, and even awakened some of his abilities, knowing that he is the reincarnation of the nine-tailed fire spirit fox.
In fact, when I was writing, I unknowingly put myself into it, and many of the stories in it were adapted from reality.
But when I wrote that the protagonist is a nine-tailed fire spirit fox, I was a little hesitant, because I didn’t know whether this nine-tailed fire spirit fox was one of my previous lives.
To be honest, I have thought about this issue before, and there were indeed some signs that this nine-tailed fire spirit fox may exist, or it may have something to do with me.
But whenever I want to think deeply, I feel a little dizzy and confused.
Later, I simply stopped thinking about it. It’s not a good thing to know too much about past lives. What I should know will come naturally when the opportunity comes. If I shouldn’t know, I won’t think about it to avoid going crazy.
Uncle Ma was positive about my idea. He said that many people are obsessed with an idea and cannot get rid of it, and eventually become obsessive. If you can let go, that's good.
I said that I didn't give up, mainly because I already knew that I was Lord Jialan, and it didn't matter whether I was a nine-tailed fire spirit fox. Anyway, I knew that I was very awesome before, and that was enough.
Uncle Ma looked at me at that time and said that you don’t need to think that your Lord Jialan is very awesome. In fact, there are many, many Dharma protector Jialan in Buddhism, and they are nothing.
I said that’s fine, I don’t ask too much, Venerable Jialan is enough.
Uncle Ma laughed and said something meaningful to me.
He said: Venerable Jialan is just your identity in Buddhism. Don’t you want to know where you come from in Taoism?
My heart moved at that time, and I said, of course I want to know, what do I do in Taoism?
Uncle Ma gave it up, shook his head, and said, you, you, you, you don’t know yet, anyway, you have many past lives, sometimes you are a human, sometimes you are an animal, sometimes you are a Buddhist protector, sometimes you ...Ahem, cough, cough, you can figure it out on your own, if you can't figure it out, you have to find the reason behind it!
Uncle Ma's words made me confused and completely confused by him.
But one good thing about me is that I usually don’t think about things that I can’t think of.
Uncle Ma said that I am open-minded and can let go of my obsessions at any time, but I know what is going on with me. In fact, I am just lazy.
After chatting for a long time, I went back to the night before Shen Xing came. I was thinking about the plot in front of the computer. I felt sleepy before I knew it, but I still couldn't bear to sleep because I still had a few hundred words to finish this chapter. I have a problem. When I do something, I want to finish it. If I don’t finish it, I get upset!
But after holding on for a while, I became more and more sleepy, so I thought I would just squint for a while, but as I kept thinking about it, I fell asleep on the keyboard.
I even heard my own snoring...
At this time, I hadn't completely lost consciousness, and I was still thinking about why I fell asleep lying here, so I should go to bed.
Then another thought is still persuading myself: get up quickly and write a novel, and then go to bed after finishing it.
Just like this, I suddenly felt that a person came into the room. He appeared in front of me in a flash and stood beside me looking at me.
Although I was half asleep and half awake, I was still a little creepy. I thought to myself, is this a ghost or something? Why did they come into my house? Huang, run, what are they doing? Why don't they look after the house?
Just when I thought of this, the person standing next to me suddenly smiled and said to me.
"Brother Wu, are you doing well?"
I thought to myself, who is this talking to me?
So I looked up and found that he was a young man about 1.6 meters tall. He had quite a personality, with a short build, a round head, and two bright, energetic eyes.
The most important thing is that he has a few beards on his mouth, which at first glance look like the black cat sergeant.
I was very puzzled and asked him who he was and why he came to see me.
This guy bared his teeth at me, then raised his chest and head and said to me, "Didn't you ask me to come to you?"
I couldn't help but be stunned and asked: "When did I ask you to come to me? Who are you?"
He stretched out his hand and stroked the beard on his mouth, and said with a smile: "If I don't change my name, I will be Huang Zuodian!"
