Before leaving City C, Xu Qing contacted Bai Zhou, who responded hurriedly and was still busy, so she drove back from the highway and arrived at the community at five o'clock in the evening.
At this time, the sunset glowed half of the sky. Children were chasing and playing downstairs, the old man was shaking his banana fan, and the nearby restaurants were gradually becoming lively.
Xu Qing parked the car and took out her schoolbag and cardboard box from the trunk. She paused and opened it. It was a Buddha statue with an almost defeated face. She couldn't help but pat her forehead. She had promised Aunt Li to go there again on her return trip.
After thinking about it, I called Bai Zhou to ask. The other party had finished his work at this time. After hearing this, he offered to help her take a look while passing by.
Xu Qing curled her lips. Being organized and having colleagues seems to be a good thing at the moment. She picked up the cardboard box and was about to go upstairs. She walked past several grandmothers and aunties, and was stopped by someone: "Xu Qing!"
"Xu Qing, is this the car you bought? I heard that your mother is ill and still needs surgery fees. Why are you suddenly rich?"
"I've seen you go out early and come back late these days, sometimes staying up all night. Have you found a boyfriend?"
The two aunts sang "You and Me" with bright eyes and full malice as they looked her up and down.
She and her mother have lived here for seven or eight years, and they are all familiar with the neighbors, but there are always some people who always like to make trouble, speak ill of her mother behind her back, and make sarcastic remarks.
Xu Qing didn't want to talk to him: "I'm lucky to have found a job with a good salary." He went straight upstairs.
After entering the stairwell, I still heard whispers from behind, saying that she was a rich man. I saw her getting out of the car of an old man in his fifties and sixties, disheveled and so on.
She couldn't help but feel bored. She didn't like dealing with these people before, but now that her mother was sick, she was even more disgusted by them adding insult to injury.
The community was built in the 1990s. There are various advertising stickers everywhere in the corridors. The walls are bald in patches. The smell of food can be heard from every house, and there are the sounds of couples quarreling. The sound insulation is not very good.
When she arrived on the sixth floor, she was just about to open the door when the door to the inner room opened. The landlady was wearing pink pajamas and her fat and round body came out: "You are back!"
Xu Qing frowned and looked at her: "What's wrong?"
The landlady said fiercely: "What did you say? Pay the rent, three thousand! I am shameless to be a mistress at such a young age, bah, it just made my house dirty."
Xu Qing's face darkened: "First, my mother just paid the rent last month. The contract stipulated that it was one thousand three thousand a month. You can't increase the rent casually. Second, defamation is punishable by imprisonment. You'd better be careful what you say."
The landlady's stubby fingers almost poked the tip of Xu Qing's nose, and her nostrils turned upward: "I can raise the price of my house as much as I want. Do you care about it? There is also a sentence, who do you think will sentence me? I am shameless to be the third party, and what else can I do?" Blame others for making irresponsible remarks."
"I used to think you were honest and thought about marrying my precious son. Bah, what a shabby thing. Maybe it has been ruined long ago."
"Wearing coquettishly and flirting with others all day long is the same as your mother..."
Suddenly, he arched his body and his face was distorted in pain, and he howled like a butchered pig: "It hurts."
Xu Qing's face turned black: "Try saying something to my mother again! And your son, that mentally retarded boy in his thirties? You want the good son you gave birth to yourself, don't blame others."
The landlord had a son who was a fool, but he was very bad. He harassed girls in the community all day long, and would touch their buttocks and breasts when he saw a girl. Once, he almost assaulted a girl who came to work from out of town.
He was 1.6 meters tall and weighed 200 pounds. He was dirty, had a runny nose, and was absolutely disgusting.
The landlord immediately exploded: "You dare to call my son a retard? Bitch, I'll beat you to death." He tried to tear Xu Qing's hair, but she held him tightly.
"Get out, get out of here tonight, don't stay here!"
Xu Qing's face was expressionless: "The contract has not expired. If you want me to move out, please refund my rent, otherwise we will not move out. And if you insult me again, don't blame me for calling the police."
The landlady's roar almost shook the ceiling: "Get back, mother... wu wu wu."
Xu Qing glanced at the landlord's husband standing at the top of the stairs, pushed him hard, opened the door and entered the house, ignoring the landlord who banged on the door angrily.
There was no one in the house for two days and it was very quiet. Xu Qing put down her things, took her pajamas and went into the bathroom. Not long after she came out of the bathroom while wiping her hair, Lin Ye sent her a message saying that he wanted to see her if he had something to do.
She replied something, put down her phone, and was about to organize her belongings, when the clay Buddha cracked.
Xu Qing frowned. She probably bumped into him accidentally when she had a conflict with the landlord just now, so she decided to take the time to send him to the temple as soon as possible.
Find a box, lift up the clay Buddha and carefully put it in - there is a golden light at the bottom.
She took a closer look and found a golden light seeping out of the cracked lines. She couldn't help but touch it with her hand. A small piece of mud fell off, and the golden color became more and more conspicuous.
Xu Qing got up and went back to the bedroom to get tweezers, and gradually pushed away the mud, and gradually a gold foil appeared in front of her eyes.
She carefully took it out and unfolded it gently. It was densely packed with small characters, and the content was profound, complicated, and difficult to understand. It read "The Secret Book of Huang Ting Jing".
Xu Qing pondered, she had heard of Huang Tingjing, it was one of the famous secret books of immortality in ancient times. It seems to relax the muscles, activate the collaterals, and adjust the qi, so that the qi in the human body can flow smoothly, thereby improving spirituality.
However, due to changes in time, Huang Ting Jing only left theories, and the specific immortal formulas have been lost.
...Why is it in a clay Bodhisattva?
Xu Qing was lost in thought when the clay sculpture suddenly cracked, and the clay Bodhisattva completely dissipated into ash and spread on the ground.
Xu Qing was stunned and hurriedly went into the bedroom to get a small clay pot, filled it with soil, put it away, and found a time to go to the temple and hand it over to the monk.
Sitting down and looking at the gold foil, she decided to give it a try. She closed her eyes and sat cross-legged... After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly opened her eyes, and her eyes were filled with light. It was indeed a fairy book, what she needed!
The Taoist ghost-catching spells and the Seventy-Two Immortal Techniques provided by the Underworld APP are naturally good things. Coupled with the flames in the body, I have never failed to deal with ghosts.
And as the flame grew bigger, she found that not only did she become stronger, but her physical condition also improved.
But there are also disadvantages, especially the use of Taoist spells and the Seventy-Two Immortals consumes too much flame energy, and the flames will shrink every time they are used up.
Huang Ting Jing, as an inner magic formula, improves spiritual energy. It can not only assist in the upgrade of flames, but also eliminates the need to consume the energy of flames when using Taoist spells.
Xu Qing almost looked up to the sky and screamed, this was such an unexpected surprise!
After carefully placing the gold foil, Xu Qing took out the reward elixir given by the underworld AP and stuffed it into his mouth. Now it's time to try this.
Soon a wave of heat rose from her lower abdomen, and her whole body ached. Thin beads of sweat seeped out from her skin, as if there were ants gnawing at the bone marrow. Countless impurities were discharged from the seams in the bones in the pain.
