After Jiang Li's matter was settled, she transferred 3,000 yuan to me and returned to school. It was only then that I realized that she was still a sophomore!
Thinking back on what happened last night, I felt a little uncomfortable.
The days are gradually getting back on track.
The antique city has a large flow of people, and tourists from all over the world often come to play. Out of curiosity, they will form groups to tell fortunes and read fortunes. The fortune-telling business in the shop is also pretty good.
And Li Yingying and Xia Rou set up a stall in the antique city to sell craft ornaments, and their income was getting higher day by day!
Just half a month later, Brother Long suddenly came to the door.
He had two dark circles under his eyes, and his eyes were full of exhaustion. He was wearing a gray suit, which was full of wrinkles and looked a bit sloppy!
There are even some mottled blood spots on the cuffs.
I know in my heart that Brother Long must have done some shameful things to deal with the Luo family during this period.
But I owe him a huge favor, which is another thing, but I will never betray him.
As soon as he entered the door, Brother Long hurriedly walked to the table and sat down. He picked up the teapot and poured water. "Gudong, gudong!" After taking two sips, he panted slightly and said, "Lu Ming, do you have any more tea here?" Peace Talisman, the two you gave me were broken last time!"
My heart skipped a beat, and my eyes unconsciously moved to the blood spots on Brother Long's sleeves.
In order to repay the favor of Brother Long and his sister-in-law, Sister Bai and I got two peace charms and gave them to Brother Long and his wife.
I made that peace talisman very carefully, it can definitely save Brother Long's life in times of crisis.
But now he actually says that the peace charm is broken, doesn't that mean...
I slowly straightened up and looked at him seriously, "Brother Long, did something happen to you?"
"It's a small matter. I've been having a bit of a quarrel with the Luo family recently, and I'm just a little busy." Brother Long took another sip of tea, moistened his throat and continued, "Yesterday, your sister-in-law and I went out to do errands, and the wheel of the car suddenly exploded on the road. We almost died in the car, but luckily I had your safety charm to protect me, otherwise I would have died."
I made tea for him again and joked with a smile, "How did you know it was protected by the peace amulet?"
"Let's pull it down. There are three cars in total, and we are the worst offenders. The car flipped into a ditch and was smashed like something. But apart from a few scratches, nothing happened." It seemed like I was joking. After hearing what Brother Long was talking about, he lifted up his sleeves to reveal a scratch the size of a fingernail. He leaned closer and whispered, "The two cars behind us don't seem to be seriously injured, but the people have either fractures or internal displacement, and they are all hospitalized. went!"
Brother Long picked up the tea cup and drank it in one gulp again, as if he hadn't drank water for several days, "If you still have those things, get me a few more, I suspect...the Luo family's The old bastard has started to use his dirty tricks again!"
"Okay!" I nodded in agreement, took out a box from under the table, "Bah!" I opened it, and it was filled with folded peace charms.
Brother Long looked at a whole box of peace charms with dull eyes, "You...are you a wholesaler here?"
"Who can wholesale such things as peace charms?" I glanced at him helplessly, "I usually make this stuff when I have nothing to do, and it doesn't have much technical content. I can make it one at a time, and it will be full in no time. Got it!"
Brother Long smacked his lips and looked at the box full of peace charms and said with some dissatisfaction, "I thought these things were so precious. Your sister-in-law even asked me to prepare 50,000 yuan to buy two from you... "
I smiled and joked, "Okay, I'll give you a discount, buy two for 50,000 yuan and get one box free!"
"Fuck you!" Brother Long cursed with a smile, and a trace of worry appeared on his face, "Are these peace charms the same quality as the last time?"
I know that Brother Long is worried about the difference between this bunch of things and the two last time. After all, this thing... is used to save lives, so don't be careless!
"Don't worry, they are all carefully made. They have been opened and they are exactly the same as last time!"
Brother Long nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, and took out a thick bundle of red notes from his bag, "I only have so much, take it and use it first, I will replenish it for you later when I have time!"
I glanced at it casually and saw that it was about 50,000 yuan. I was a little surprised and asked, "Did you really give me that much?"
Brother Long waved his hand nonchalantly, "Okay, keep it. If you feel guilty, get me something to do that, like the magic weapon you mentioned!"
I paused and didn't agree immediately.
The "things" in his mouth refer to dirty things, but he is just an ordinary person. If he plays with things like tools, something will probably happen, so he can only wear some amulets and the like to ward off evil spirits.
I thought about it and nodded, "I'll keep an eye on it for you then, but don't get your hopes too high. After all, if this thing doesn't work, something will happen!"
"Your words are enough. I'll leave first if I have something else to do." Brother Long happily picked up the box filled with peace charms, stood up and walked towards the door, but he happened to bump into a man with his head lowered. The walking old man, Brother Long's face darkened, and his good mood suddenly disappeared, "Your special eyes are on the top of your head? Can you be normal? Damn it!"
After scolding, Brother Long went out and left directly.
At this moment, I clearly saw the old man raising his head and looking at Brother Long sinisterly. A black shadow quickly rushed towards Brother Long, but as soon as it touched Brother Long's body, it disappeared instantly.
At the same time, one of the boxes filled with peace charms in Brother Long's hand happened to fall out due to bumps. When it fell to the ground, some black spots gradually appeared, which proved that the charm was broken.
The old man stared blankly at the peace charm on the ground. After being silent for a long time, he walked towards me and sat directly where Brother Long had been.
The old man looked very strange. There was a black tumor the size of a broad bean on his left forehead. The nose on his face was so droopy that it almost covered his nostrils. His yellowed and black teeth were tightly wrapped by his mouth.
I stared at the old man in front of me with a cold face. This was the first time I saw such a vicious person. He was obviously the one who bumped into Brother Long while walking first, but he actually wanted to use evil energy to retaliate. "Old man, what you did just now was a bit inappropriate, wasn't it?" It’s so suitable!”
"Well, I'm sorry, please be careful next time." The old man's attitude was unexpectedly good. He raised his face and stared at me with a pair of sinister eyes, "Did you make that peace charm?"
I nodded, "Yes."
"Well, it's okay, I'm just asking." The old man leaned back on the chair slowly, closed his eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "I want a fortune telling, how much does it cost?"
I didn't expect that he not only looked weird, but also had such a weird personality. It was as if what happened just now was nothing at all. "Three hundred for yourself, five hundred for others."
After saying the quotation, the old man opened his eyes and looked at me and asked in a hoarse voice, "How much does it cost to calculate the life of a dead person?"
I frowned, "You...what did you say?"
