Chapter 8: Chapter 0008 Where is the way out?
Uncle Li and I looked at each other, but the emotions in our eyes were not very high.
Although we didn't spend much time together, I could feel that this old man surnamed Zhou was not the kind of charlatan who would say "Sir, your forehead is black, and there will be a bloody disaster in the near future" when he met me. He was really capable. Regardless of the fact that the things the grandfather and grandson calculated were more consistent with my actual situation, the tortoise shell in the hands of the old man Zhou was not a simple thing. The tortoise shell was faintly white, not naturally weathered and faded, it was very strange, and I just realized that the thing should be the tortoise shell of a strange creature called white crocodile recorded in the book "Nine Provinces Strange Things" in my family.
"There is a spirit in the East China Sea, named the white crocodile. It takes a thousand years to take shape and ten thousand years to grow. It carries immortals on its back. Its shell is engraved with horizontal lines of destiny, which can reach the three lives!"
This is the description of the white crocodile in the book "Kyushu Yiwu Qilu". The saying that it carries immortals on its back is a bit nonsense, but my grandfather said that this white crocodile does exist, and it is in the East China Sea. It is just extremely rare. It has only appeared a few times since ancient times. The tortoise shells on its body are indeed the treasure of the physiognomy family and are priceless! !
Can an ordinary fortune teller afford this thing?
Now Mr. Zhou vomited blood and fainted after telling me a fortune. This really cast a shadow on my heart-could it be that I really provoked something terrible?
People who have not really experienced the threat of death will not understand my mood at this time. The feeling is no less than stuffing a loaded gun in the crotch, and being nervous, for fear that it will accidentally go off and make me "lose everything".
At this time, the little brat had already come in. When he saw his grandfather's condition, he immediately burst into tears and yelled at me: "It's all because of you, you are a person with bad luck and bad debts. If I hadn't told you the fortune, would my grandfather have become like this?"
I opened my mouth and wanted to say something, but I didn't say it in the end. The facts were in front of me. Mr. Zhou vomited blood and fell down in order to tell my fortune. This is an undeniable fact. What can I say? Even if I just want to survive, I never thought of dragging others down.
"Don't blame him."
An old voice suddenly sounded at this time, which more or less resolved my embarrassment. It turned out that Mr. Zhou had woken up at some point. His hair was disheveled, his face was pale, and his complexion was very bad. He barely supported himself and sat up. He looked at his grandson very seriously and said slowly: "Zhou Jing, remember, our Zhou family will always owe them the Ge family. If it weren't for Brother Ge, I would have died in that place decades ago. Now I have an accident for the divination of Brother Ge's descendants. It can be regarded as repaying Brother Ge's kindness. You can't blame him!"
Zhou Jing should be the name of the unpopular little brat. Although this guy is unruly, he is very obedient in front of his grandfather. Hearing this, he nodded unwillingly with tears in his eyes and stood aside.
Grandpa Zhou then waved to me: "Ge family kid, come here."
I hurriedly sat over. Grandpa Zhou hesitated for a moment and then said: "Ge family kid, let Zhou Jing follow you in the future. His parents died early and he is also a poor child. I am sorry to trouble you. Fortunately, he has learned most of my skills. What he lacks is some practical experience. It will be helpful for you to follow you."
How can the old man interpret my fortune? It is clearly telling me what to do after his death! Even the little brat Zhou Jing heard something wrong. He wanted to speak several times, but he was glared at by the old man and then he was quiet.
Uncle Li waited until he finished speaking before he said anxiously, "Senior Zhou, what are you doing..."
The old man waved his hand and said, "I have long calculated that my time is coming, but I didn't expect it was because of this kid from the Ge family. But it's okay. At least I have the face to see Brother Ge in the underworld, and I didn't let him down for saving my life."
At this point, the old man looked at Uncle Li and said in a deep voice, "I have calculated countless times for people in my life, and I have leaked too many things that shouldn't be leaked. I don't know how many karmas are entangled with me. I'm afraid that many people will come to me to seek retribution on the day of their death. If it's a human, it's okay. I'm afraid that the evil beast that comes here will harm my grandson instead. Please help me with this."
Uncle Li hesitated for a moment, and finally looked at Zhou Jing with tears in his eyes, and then nodded.
"As for the kid from the Ge family..."
The old man sighed softly: "I am incompetent and can't figure out what is going to harm him."
Uncle Li was anxious when he heard my story and asked hurriedly: "Is Xiaotian really hopeless?"
"It's not hopeless. I've already said that the child is fine for now. There is a black air in his life palace that is keeping him alive. Although the one who can save him may not be a human, he should not be harmed unless something unexpected happens. I think the key to solving this problem lies in the marriage certificate. If you understand the origin of the marriage certificate, you must know what is going to protect the child. It's a pity that the thing is too powerful. The old man I can't afford to offend it, so I can't figure out what it is. "
The old man looked solemn and said slowly: "What really threatens the Ge family boy is his future!
This child is entangled in Yin debts, and I'm afraid he will have to deal with ghosts and gods for the rest of his life. My grandson just told you that the Ge family boy's appearance palace has a great ups and downs in the Five Mountains pattern, and he is destined to have many disasters in his life. If he can't get over a hurdle, he may lose his life!"
Uncle Li asked: "Is there a way to resolve it?"
"Yes!"
The old man said a word with certainty, and then dipped his tea in the teacup and slowly wrote a word on the table-"Heaven"!
Uncle Li's face suddenly looked bad: "Senior Zhou, besides this, is there no other way? You also know that the Ge family has only this one child left. If we really go to find them, wouldn't that be pushing this child into the fire pit? Those people are doing a job that is worth their lives! Xiaotian's father has protected him for more than 20 years, just to prevent him from getting involved in this muddy water again, but now I bring him there, isn't this deliberately letting me get stabbed in the back!"
"What is destined to happen will happen, and what is not destined to happen should not be forced."
The old man sighed and smiled bitterly: "If there is no other way, how can I let the Ge family kid go to those people? But now I can't even calculate what is going to harm him. I'm afraid that only by following them can the safety of the Ge family kid be guaranteed. After all, you know the abilities of those people.
This is the fate of the Ge family kid, and we can't change it. If you don't take him this time, he will have to get involved in the future!"
Uncle Li was silent.
The old man didn't say much. He asked Zhou Jing to bring him a pen and paper. He quickly wrote down an address on it and handed it to Uncle Li, saying, "That's all I can say about this matter. If you have figured it out, take the Ge family kid to this place to find this person. He is not a bad person. At least he won't harm the Ge family. And as long as it is a Ge family member, he will definitely do his best to help. If the Ge family kid can stay with this person, his safety will be more or less guaranteed. Ordinary dirty things can't harm him!" Uncle Li sighed and took the paper. I really couldn't understand what these two people were saying. I couldn't help but look at Uncle Li, but Uncle Li didn't say anything at all. "I don't have much time. If you have nothing to do, please wait outside for a while."
Grandpa Zhou said, "Let me talk to my grandson and tell him something."
"Okay, we'll wait outside."
Uncle Li nodded decisively and took me outside. I looked at Uncle Li's face full of melancholy and worry, and I felt that he was becoming more and more unfamiliar.
I thought my family was just an ordinary antique collector, but now it seems that it is not the case!
What does the word "sky" written by Grandpa Zhou on the table mean? What are the origins of those people they have been talking about?
I have no idea about everything, and my mind is particularly confused. It seems that since I collected this Baipi Knife, my life has become confusing, and fate is pushing me step by step in a direction that I can't see clearly...
Is it life or death ahead?
I don't know, and I was pulled out of the house stupidly by Uncle Li.
