I pondered for a long time, looked at Chan and Hu Tiangang and asked, "Do you think it's possible that in the past few years, in the process of trying to subdue sneaky people, I offended a kid with a terrifying background?"
I remember that when the old man was fishing for me, he said that she was fine. Who is she? Is she someone who has been offended by me unintentionally for so many years, so the young man found the old man and wanted to kill me?
And the old man's fishing method to kill me was really terrifying. What kind of method was it?
"That's impossible!" Zen directly denied me, "It's impossible for a kid to have that kind of terrifying background. In the eyes of that kind of person, a kid is worse than dust."
"That's strange." I whispered thoughtfully, and suddenly my heart moved, and I quickly said: "Then, do you think that old man is a member of an evil organization? For example, the Evil God Cult!"
Three years ago, when I was dealing with the case of missing corpses in the town hospital, I encountered an ambush and plot by an evil organization. However, the evil master Shen Qiaolan was not very strong and was easily solved by me.
Later, the little girl Zhuang Ruxue learned important clues about the evil organization from her grandfather, which was called the Evil God Cult.
Then, the old man just now is most likely a member of the Evil God Cult. They figured out my whereabouts and sent people to kill me. Only this guess can explain it.
"It's possible, but I feel it's not that simple. You have to be more careful in the future." Zen said with a frown.
"That's right." Hu Tiangang said with his hands in his sleeves: "If your grandma hadn't given you the Netherworld Trident to save your life, you can imagine the consequences this time."
Hearing this, my heart moved, and I quickly looked at the bedside table. I saw the black wooden box lying there quietly, as if it had not been opened.
I quickly took it over and opened it, only to see the glowing trident inside. After I took it out, I felt the cold touch and my eyes became moist.
It seems that my grandma's breath still lingers on it. If grandma hadn't given me this trident to defend myself, I would have died just now.
Although I wasted one use, fortunately I was fine. Thinking about it made me scared, but then I started to look at the trident again.
At this time, Zen's voice suddenly came, "This trident is not as simple as it seems on the surface."
When I heard this, I secretly said that it was true. The old man had already grabbed the trident before, as if the low-grade Taoist weapon could not hurt him, and he was actually powerful enough to have the ability to refine the low-grade Taoist weapon.
If not for the last moment, the trident burst out with black light, seriously injuring the old man and escaping, the consequences can be imagined.
"Let me take a look." Hu Tiangang suddenly took the trident and inspected it. After a long time, he said: "It looks like a low-grade Taoist weapon, but why did it suddenly burst out with such terrifying power at a critical moment? Sun Yanhong is really unfathomable."
I looked at the trident with solemn eyes, thinking that although the power of this treasure was beyond my expectation, it was still escaped by the old man.
"By the way, Zen, Hu Tiangang." I asked worriedly, "What do you think I will do if the old man comes to kill me again in the future? After all, the Netherworld Trident only has three chances to use it, and it was wasted just once."
My mood sank to the bottom. If the old man came a few more times and consumed the number of attacks of the trident, wouldn't I definitely die?
"You're okay for the time being." Zen shook his head and said, "Although the old man escaped, he must have paid a huge price to escape successfully. He must also have suffered extremely serious injuries. He will definitely not come back in a short time."
"Yes, if I'm not wrong, his current injury has caused his cultivation level to drop, and he will definitely not do it again in a short time, unless he no longer wants to live, and after experiencing this lesson, he will never dare to take action easily again. "Hu Tiangang also echoed.
"Huh..." I breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, but my heart was still worried. After all, being targeted by such a terrifying existence made me sleepless.
Ring ring ring.
Suddenly, a harsh ringing sound startled me. I picked up the mobile phone and saw that it was Xiao Mengxin.
I suddenly realized a problem and quickly answered the phone.
"Mengxin, are you okay?"
"Xiao An, are you okay?"
We almost said it in unison, and then I was stunned, the receiver was silent, and Xiao Mengxin was obviously stunned too.
"Huh..." But when I heard Xiao Mengxin's voice, I was relieved, indicating that she was fine.
"I'm fine. I'm fine. Why do you ask me that?" I asked curiously. Did she sense something after I was in danger?
"Tell me first, why did you ask me if I was okay?" Xiao Mengxin asked curiously.
I was afraid that she would be worried, so I thought for a moment and said, "It's nothing. I just dreamed that you turned into a fish, and I thought you were feeling unwell."
"Is it that simple?" Xiao Mengxin asked.
"Yeah, it's that simple. Why did you ask me if I was okay?" I asked curiously, "Did you also have a dream?"
"That's right." Xiao Mengxin took a deep, trembling breath and said, "I also dreamed that you turned into a fish, struggling and being fished up by an old man. It really scared me to death. I have a feeling in the dark, if you If you really get caught, your life will be in danger."
Hearing this, I was shocked. I didn't expect that she had just dreamed of the scene where I was in danger. She was indeed the incarnation of my other half of the soul. Many things could be synchronized to each other.
I didn't want her to worry, so I lied and said, "That was just a nightmare. How could my life be in danger? It's fine, but why did you have such a dream? What happened later, was I caught?"
"Then it was pitch dark and I couldn't see anything and woke up. Huh..." Xiao Mengxin exhaled and said again: "Xiao An, you are lying. I can feel that you are not telling the truth. Tell me honestly, you are Aren't you in any danger? Don't stay in the countryside. How about I drive to pick you up tomorrow? I'm really worried about you."
Hearing this, a warm current flowed through my heart, and then I said: "I'm fine, don't worry, it's already past four o'clock, go to bed early, I will go to Hualian City in a few days, don't worry, be good and be obedient."
"Hmph, a little kid who is four years younger than me is still coaxing me to be good? Obedient? Huh, but I like it." After Xiao Mengxin finished speaking, she asked me if I was really okay, and said a lot of caring words.
After I repeatedly emphasized my own safety, she felt relieved and stopped worrying. After chatting for a while, she hung up the phone.
After Zen and Hu Tiangang said many words of advice, they also returned to my body.
I lost my sleepiness, so I walked to the window and looked at the silver moonlight outside the window. Although the scenery was beautiful, my mood was as depressed as being pressed by a stone.
Who is that scary old man?
Why do you want to kill me?
Does he have anything to do with the evil organization and Gongsun Tianqiang?
And when he grabbed the trident, he was surprised and said that I was worthy of being... He didn't reveal the rest, but it was obvious from his brief words that he knew my details.
But I don't know any information about him. The enemy is hiding and I am hiding. It's really passive and tricky.
How did he know who I was? I was confused.
I picked up the Netherworld Trident again and thought about the terrifying energy it erupted before that seriously injured the old man. Is that mysterious energy really the power of the trident itself?
Suddenly, my heart trembled, and I whispered in my heart, "Could the mysterious energy that the trident species erupted have something to do with grandma, and is she protecting me secretly?"
Thinking of this, I felt suddenly excited, but it felt impossible. I didn't notice the slightest breath of my grandma at the time. Maybe I was overthinking it.
My mind was in chaos, I looked at the moon in the sky and whispered, "Grandma, are you helping me secretly?"
I lowered my head and looked at the trident again. The vitality poured into it and I felt it carefully. I did notice a trace of life fluctuations. It was probably the weapon spirit that had not grown up and opened up my mind. Only Taoist weapons have weapon spirits, but I guess this Taoist weapon Due to the low grade, the weapon spirit cannot be awakened.
But I’m not in the mood to dwell on this now, I’ll talk about it later.
I went back to bed and couldn't fall asleep. I meditated until dawn, thinking a lot during this period.
The danger just now reminds me of the crisis in Hualian City that my grandma warned me about in my dream. However, this crisis should be temporarily resolved by me.
At least in a short period of time, nothing should happen, unless the old man really wants to cultivate and can't make any progress.
As a practitioner, no one wants this.
I looked at the time and saw that it was already seven o'clock. There were footsteps outside the door. I got up and walked to the bathroom, just in time to see He Huanhuan yawning and walking out.
When she saw me, she said in surprise: "Brother, you're awake."
"Yeah." I smiled and said, "Huanhuan, how did you sleep last night?"
Yesterday, I heard my eldest sister say that she likes me. My heart was really complicated. I even felt that I couldn't face He Huanhuan, and I had a subtle thought of running away from her.
Because when you find out that a girl you think of as your sister may like you, it feels really weird, a bit incestuous.
"I slept well, brother." After He Huanhuan finished speaking, he suddenly came up to me and took my arm, pouting: "I just don't feel as comfortable sleeping in the same bed with you."
"Cough..." I coughed and took my hands out of her arms with twinkling eyes.
At this time, the eldest sister walked out of the bedroom and saw us and said, "Have you all gone to the toilet? I'm going to go after you're done."
"Ah, I haven't yet." Hearing this, I ran into the toilet as if I was running away. After washing up, I looked at the mirror, frowned, and said to myself that when I have the right opportunity, I really need to ask He Huanhuan if it is true. Like me.
This is a big deal. If she really has other thoughts about me, I have to stop her severely.
The eldest sister went to the toilet to make breakfast and then suddenly received a call from Xiao Qilei. He said that he had something to do and could not pick me up.
Tell me that if I want to go to the hotel, I can just take a taxi there, and ask me to go directly to Manager Feng. Xiao Qilei has already notified him there.
At the same time, Xiao Qilei gave my eldest sister a few days off so that she could take He Huanhuan around for fun. After all, it was her first time in Hualian City.
I thought Xiao Qilei was quite thoughtful. After eating breakfast and staying for a while, after eight o'clock, I looked at eldest sister and He Huanhuan and said, "eldest sister, Huanhuan, you guys can go for a walk if you have nothing to do. I'll go to the hotel right away." have a look."
After saying that, I started to pack my things. Such a dangerous thing happened last night, so I took all the treasures and Taoist tools, just for fear of an accident.
"If you ask me, just leave that shit alone. It's so dangerous. What if something happens?" The eldest sister said angrily, not wanting me to go there.
"I've promised you, let's go and have a look." I said as I packed my things: "Besides, I'm going to do my old job in Hualian City. Solving the hotel issue will help me establish myself in the big city. Get a foothold.”
I put my bag on my back and looked at my eldest sister deeply and said, "If I make a lot of money, I can bring our parents to the city."
The eldest sister wanted to say something else, but after hearing my words, she had no choice but to stop trying to persuade me and told me to be more careful.
Seeing that I had to do business, He Huanhuan didn't bother me, and asked me to be more careful, "Brother An, please pay attention to your safety." She straightened the collar of my clothes and spoke to my little wife tenderly.
My expression became more complicated, then I exhaled and smiled: "..."
