When I arrived at the Chinese medicine store, I wrote down a prescription and asked Xia Min to take the medicine accordingly.
Fortunately, pharmacies now provide cooking services, so we just waited for the soup to be cooked.
While waiting for the medicine, I took out my phone and put it on the table: "I know we have a contract, but I have to remind you, look at today's day."
"August 15th?"
I put the phone in place and whispered, "It's good that you know. Don't seek death tonight."
Xia Min's attitude towards me softened slightly: "Isn't this because of you?"
"Actually, I just watched the replay of last night, and there were messages from fans backstage. I probably know what happened last night."
"Then what? What do you want to say?"
Xia Min clasped her hands: "Thank you."
"If you really want to thank me, just give me the money I gave you for the cruise."
Xia Min was stunned, and immediately took out her phone, fiddled with it a few times and then looked up at me.
"alright."
I looked down and said, "2000? That's too much."
With that said, I am about to return the money.
Xia Min quickly pressed my hand and said, "Don't retreat. If there is a next time, you have to save me."
Her attitude has softened a lot now, and I don't want to act like a class enemy.
Taking advantage of this excitement, I talked about all the pros and cons.
However, Xia Min was like the bastard who ate the weight, her head shook like a rattle.
"If I was afraid of danger, I wouldn't go down this road, so don't persuade me."
Everyone has obsessions, and I can't forcefully interfere with other people's thoughts.
However, I still have to say what needs to be said: "On August 15th, the door of hell will open wide."
"Yeah, I know everything."
I laughed half-jokingly: "This is really a chance to gain wealth through danger."
Xia Min just smiled and said nothing.
After a while, I sighed: "Then go buy something and don't end up in the same situation as last night again."
"You tell me, I'll remember it."
"Forget it, just drink the medicine and I'll go with you."
She drank the Chinese medicine in one gulp, and in the puzzled eyes of the little boy, I took away all the dregs of the medicine.
After that, we both bought cinnabar and other evil spirits.
Even with the help of Chinese medicine to suppress it, Xia Min's steps still drifted. She thought she was walking in a straight line, but in fact she was walking crookedly.
After struggling for nearly a day, I finally bought everything.
Seeing that the sun was setting, Xia Min sat on the steps, covering her stomach with one hand: "Eat something, I'm hungry."
"I'll treat you to it! No salary deduction!"
I smiled and waved my hand: "I can't eat your food in vain."
"Here, this is for you."
I took out the Bagua mirror that Achen left for me and handed it to Xia Min.
Xia Min looked at this thing curiously: "Is this consecrated?"
"I don't know if it's turned on or not, but I know it's very useful."
She held the Bagua Mirror in both hands and was about to put it in her pocket when she suddenly asked again.
"Huh? You won't charge extra for this, right?"
"It's worth the meal."
Anyone with a little common sense knows that the ghost gate opens on August 14th, the ghost gate closes on August 16th, and the middle one is August 15th. This is the time when hundreds of ghosts walk at night and they will not go out at all.
The autumn rain had just fallen, and gusts of autumn wind came with a coolness. The yellow leaves rustled on the ground, and the autumn wind penetrated into the skin along the gaps in the clothes.
It was a kind of coolness from the inside out.
The sun had just set and the street lamps had not yet had time to light up. Everything as far as the eye could see was black and gray, with only large and small puddles still bright.
There are almost no people on the road, and you can see the end of the street from the street.
We wrapped our clothes tighter and just kept our heads down and walked on.
While walking, I had already taken out my mobile phone: "Let's go to the night market."
"Is it so cold?" Xia Min rubbed her hands: "You can't freeze to death if you sit outside?"
The calm streets made me even more unsure: "We need to find a place where the popularity is at its peak."
"Look at these restaurants, there are almost no people."
Xia Min pursed her lips and thought for a while: "Then turn right from the front."
Before I even reached the intersection, the strong smell of burning paper had already entered my nostrils.
Near the intersection, there are piles of unburned paper everywhere. The number of people burning paper is no less than that of the Sunday market.
I raised my head and whispered, "Hurry up and don't stop."
We both just kept walking forward, and Xia Min suddenly burst out in panic next to me.
"Oops! Sorry!"
I looked back and saw that Xia Min had one foot stepping on a pile of burning paper.
The old lady squatting aside stared at Xia Min with a dark face, scaring her so much that she quickly retracted her feet.
