At noon the next day, I had been in class all morning. As soon as I walked out of the teaching building, my phone in my trouser pocket vibrated. I took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello! Hello, who are you?"
"Haha! I'm the owner of the restaurant yesterday. Didn't you tell me that I could contact you today?" A middle-aged man's voice sounded on the other end of the phone.
"Hey! Do you want to meet and chat?"
"Of course, little brother, are you free at the moment?" the middle-aged man asked in a kind manner.
"Yes, but it's noon and I haven't eaten yet after class." I really didn't want to eat, I was just telling the truth.
"Haha! It's okay to eat. It's natural to ask for help from others. How about we meet at the main gate of A later?" The middle-aged man chose to meet at the main gate of A. I'm afraid I was cheating on him yesterday.
"No problem." I said firmly and hung up the phone. About twenty minutes later, standing at the main entrance of A, I saw an old black Honda parked steadily beside me.
"Haha! Little brother, please get in the car." The driver's window rolled down, and the middle-aged man from yesterday looked at me with a smile and greeted me. Without saying a word, I walked around the front of the car, opened the passenger door and got in.
"What do you want to eat, little brother?" The middle-aged man turned the steering wheel, and the old Honda merged into the constant flow of traffic.
"Hey! I'm from out of town. I can eat whatever I want." I said as I took out the smoke and fire on my body.
"Smoke mine." The middle-aged man held the steering wheel with one hand and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket with the other hand and threw it to me.
"Hehe! The boss is the boss. Is this cigarette of high quality? Let me taste what this good cigarette tastes like." I naturally took out his cigarette and lit it as I thought.
"Haha! Don't look at this small shop, but the food is absolutely authentic. I'm so greedy that I often come here to eat." In a small restaurant, in a private room with good privacy, the middle The young man introduced me while putting his coat on the chair.
"Aren't you just a restaurant owner? Why do you come to eat at other people's houses and praise their food so much?" I asked him in confusion.
"Haha! I opened a restaurant to support my family. I have long been tired of eating my own food. At my age, I shouldn't use such metaphors. People don't say, 'Is it okay for my wife to belong to someone else's family?'" The middle-aged man should usually be quite polite. A decent person, he still had some foreshadowing when he said this.
"Haha! By the way, I don't know your last name yet?" I asked first out of politeness.
"My surname is Ma, I can just call me Lao Ma."
"That's not possible. At your age, I have to call you Uncle Ma. My name is Hu Xiaoyue. You can call me Xiao Hu or Xiaoyue." We are not children who don't understand etiquette, so we immediately called out respectfully. The other party called him uncle.
"Haha! If you praise me like this, I won't refuse. You see, we know each other now. Xiaoyue, Uncle Ma has all the symptoms you mentioned yesterday, and he has indeed seen a doctor. But it was never cured, and instead it got worse." Boss Ma wanted to continue, but I interrupted him.
"Hey! Uncle Ma, don't be anxious. This is nothing to worry about. I've been in class all morning and I'm really hungry. Wait for me to give you some advice and then we can talk slowly." I said. When I picked up my chopsticks, the rice in the bowl was all gone in the blink of an eye.
After a while, I finally put down the bowl and chopsticks, burped, picked up a cup of tea at hand, and sipped it.
"Oops! Look, I'm so old and confused. Why did I forget to order wine? Xiaoyue, do you want something white or beer? Come on, Uncle Ma will drink some with you." With that, Boss Ma asked. Go call the waiter.
"Hey!" I reached out and stopped him.
"Don't be in a hurry when you drink. We'll have a chance when things get settled." Hearing this, Boss Ma didn't insist anymore and looked at me expectantly.
"Hehe! Actually, this matter is not complicated. It's just that your body is contaminated with something unclean, which is what is often called an evil disease. Naturally, it cannot be cured by seeking medical advice." I said seriously. Get down to business.
"I have also speculated on this. To be honest, I have also looked for it through friends. Some witch doctors and witch doctors in the countryside have seen it. If the money is not spent, I will not mention it, but the results are ineffective." Boss Ma talked about the past with some frustration.
"It's hard to say. Maybe those people's abilities are limited and they can't solve your problems. Maybe they are just a group of fake people who are swindling?" I took over the conversation in a hurry.
"Haha! Who knows about this? Anyway, this is the first time I have encountered such a thing in my life. Xiaoyue, do you think you are sure to help Uncle Ma solve the problem?" Boss Ma looked longingly. My words were a little hasty.
"Well, I can only say give it a try. I don't like to talk too much, but I will definitely try my best." I agreed to his request sincerely, and that's what I really thought in my heart.
"Yesterday when we passed each other, I smelled a smell. For this reason, I even took a look at your face. Based on your face and that special smell, I guessed that you were contaminated with it. There is a very strong evil spirit. This demon is a thousand times more powerful than those ghosts and ghosts. Maybe those otherworldly experts, witch doctors and goddesses can deal with the ghosts, but they are helpless against this demon." I think of it. Both he and Boss Ma in front of him spoke frankly.
"Evil spirit? Is there really a demon? I thought running into a ghost or meeting a ghost would be the end of it. Why did I encounter a demon again?" Boss Ma looked at me in disbelief and asked. .
I go! I thought to myself, 'Is it unusual to meet a demon? I have a litter over there, and my buddy even slept with a demon, so it’s not a big deal. '
"Uncle Ma, do you think anything strange has happened to you in the past six months or so? I think you have been infected with this evil spirit for a long time." Regardless of Boss Ma's frightened look, I asked solemnly. One sentence.
"Strange things, nothing strange at all. Life just goes by day by day. It's quite normal." Boss Ma muttered and fell into deep thought.
"Don't be anxious and think slowly. The person who tied the bell must be tied to untie it. If I don't find the thread, I won't be able to do anything." I said comfortingly.
"Ah!" Boss Ma suddenly exclaimed. I didn't care. I picked up the teapot on the table and poured myself half a cup of hot tea. After picking up the teacup and taking a sip, I looked at the face. Suspicious Boss Ma.
"Is there something wrong with that piece of jade? No way." Boss Ma muttered to himself as if he thought of something. I didn't interrupt his thoughts with words, I just looked at him calmly, waiting for his next words.
"Hey!" After a while, Boss Ma sighed, "This is what happened..."
The boss Ma in front of me is named Ma Lei. He started working in a street snack bar when he was young. After more than 20 years of hard work, he built the prosperous Nanyuan Hotel today. Although he may not be considered rich when he reaches middle age, he can still be said to be moderately wealthy and content.
Over the years, Ma Lei considered himself a fairly self-disciplined man. Although he had not been exposed to women in the romantic field, he had never paid attention to those beautiful women.
About a year ago, a chance encounter introduced him to a young and beautiful woman. With just one glance, Ma Lei, an experienced man who was almost middle-aged, was instantly fascinated by the woman's pure and bright eyes and could not extricate himself. .
That time Ma Lei and a few friends went to hang out in a famous antique city in city S. He had some spare money, and he usually liked to play with arty antiques. He also knew that he was not very knowledgeable, so he didn't play very well. It's just a big fight or a small fight.
As soon as Ma Lei walked out of a store that day, he bumped into a girl who was about to come in. Ma Lei subconsciously wanted to say sorry, but when he looked up, he saw a charming and pretty face. In an instant, he thought I got stuck after saying just three words: "I'm sorry."
"Haha! I'm sorry, brother, I left in too hasty, are you okay?" On the contrary, the girl was the first to apologize. The girl in front of her, who seemed to have fallen from the sky, immediately attracted Ma Lei. She has big, bright, and pure eyes with short ears. She wears a pink windbreaker on her upper body and a milky white low-necked shirt underneath. The colors in front of her are very bright and gorgeous, especially on her fair neck. Here, the light yellow ribbon is even more eye-catching.
"Haha! Brother, brother, are you okay?" The young short-haired woman waved her hand in front of Ma Lei's eyes and asked softly.
"Ah!" Ma Lei, who came back to his senses in an instant, immediately responded: "It's okay, it's okay." At the same time, he was also wondering in his heart. His old Ma is not a person who has never seen the world. What kind of girl is he? I’ve never seen it before. Why did you get distracted by a little girl today?
"Haha!" The short-haired woman smiled faintly, then walked around Ma Lei and walked into the store. Ma Lei turned to look at the graceful back of the short-haired woman, and unconsciously fell into a trance again.
"Hey! Old Ma, is this iron tree of yours about to bloom? Your eyes are about to fall out. You don't usually see you so nice?" The friend next to him saw Ma Lei's lost look and immediately jumped up. Ma Lei teased him and did not retort. He just smiled and followed a few friends out of the antique city.
Originally, they were going to meet for tea, but Ma Lei, who was a little absent-minded, said that he suddenly remembered that he had something to do, so he left alone. Ma Lei, who had not gone far in the car, unexpectedly turned around and returned. Back in the antique city, this unexpected encounter made Ma Lei officially get to know the short-haired woman. Somehow, this young and beautiful girl really touched the old Ma's long-lost heart. The heartstrings made him completely exhausted.
A person will meet many people in his life. Some people call this kind of encounter fate. Fate is also a mysterious thing. There is love fate, eye fate, organic fate, immortal fate, and there is another kind called evil fate. But no matter what the fate is, you can't escape if you are destined to escape.
