After my grandma left, I always felt that time passed quickly. Maybe I was extremely busy and numbed my nerves about time. Only when the grass turns green, would I take the time to express my feelings.
A cry, oh, summer is coming——
Although there are four distinct seasons in the north, in my memory, I only remember winter and summer, because winter can be bitingly cold, and because summer can sometimes be as cold as winter, so I get confused between the two seasons. Why do I think so?
We have to distinguish winter from summer. One is cold outside and the other is cold inside. How can we tell the difference?
During the Qingming Festival, I went to visit my grandma's grave. As I knelt on the grave, I kept thinking, "Grandma, I have grown a lot since my fate was clear. Not only can I defeat the evil spirits of the head, but I can also master the thirty-five evil spirits of home feng shui."
Now, grandma, I have become quite famous in the county. Grandpa didn't come with me this time. His legs and feet are not very good. I'm afraid he won't be able to get back down when climbing the mountain. Grandma, don't worry about me. I'm fine.
I think I will be better in the future.
This time, grandma didn't respond to me. I had been expecting Zongbao to turn around and at least give me some clear instructions like last year, but there was nothing and everything was as calm as ever.
Because I drove there, I was not in a hurry to go back. I just sat by the grave until dark. Before I left, I burned incense again and continued to mutter, "Grandma, I now know that I
Why didn't you let me come to the city when I was ten years old? It wasn't just because of Zhuo Jing, right? You wanted me to hide from the bearded man who taught me sorcery, but don't worry, the bearded apprentice and
He is different, he is very good to me, he is my very good friend, he will not hurt me, don’t worry...
With a 'bang' sound, the incense actually broke...
I was stunned for a moment: "Grandma... what's wrong with you?"
Water oozed out from the tombstone, like dew. Crystal water droplets oozed out layer by layer. I stretched out my hand and wiped the tombstone, and the water droplets poured out layer by layer again, more like
Grandma is watching me cry.
I was a little at a loss: "Grandma, why are you crying? What do you want to tell me?"
The wind was very quiet, and there was nothing unusual except for the tombstone that was quietly leaking water droplets. I was a little anxious and looked back at Zong Bao: "Did my grandma say anything?"
Zong Bao looked at me and shook his head dully: "No." As he said that, he closed his eyes and said, "I seem to see your grandma looking at you very worriedly... and shedding tears."
"Grandma..."
I was anxious: "Can you please stop crying? Tell me why you are crying. Is it because of Cheng Baize? Do you know that he couldn't bear to kill me and gave himself a Five Thunder Palm? Grandma, or are you worried that his master will still do it?"
He won't do anything to me. Don't worry, his master is already dead no matter how capable he is. Cheng Baize won't hurt me. Really, grandma, don't cry. I'll take care of me when I grow up.
My own, I can still take good care of my grandpa, no one will hurt me again..."
It wasn't until the water drops on the tombstone gradually stopped that I breathed out gently and glanced at the darkening sky: "Grandma, I know you are most worried about me. You often tell me that I want to save you from disaster. In fact,
It also tells me to be strong. No matter what happens, I will face it with strength. Cheng Baize is my trustworthy friend. He is really a very good person. He is also very good to my grandfather, although he is the bearded one.
Apprentice, although he is also good at sorcery, he is not a person who engages in evil ways. Don't worry about me, otherwise, I will feel uncomfortable. It's very late and I'm going back. Grandma, if you have anything to say to me
, you want to entrust me with a dream."
On the way back, I kept wanting to look back. Zong Bao seemed to know what I was thinking. He opened his mouth in my ear and said, "It's better not to look back when you go to the grave. Otherwise, the deceased will think that you are too nostalgic and will feel uneasy."
I sighed: "I just want to know why my grandma cries."
He glanced at me: "Maybe he expected something, maybe he just missed you."
I shook my head, "It can't be that you miss me. You don't miss my grandma like this." Because I couldn't figure it out, I smashed the steering wheel in frustration after getting in the car: "Why can't Onmyoji see his own life!"
Zong Bao put on his seat belt and continued calmly: "The steering wheel is broken and we can't go back. You still can't do it."
As he said that, he glanced at me again: "This is something you have known for a long time. It is useless to worry about it. You are not the only one who is like this. Every onmyoji is like this. Judging numerology, measuring good and bad luck, and increasing fortune are all leaks in themselves.
The process will more or less affect some of your own fortune and body. Having said that, if you can't show it to yourself, there are a lot of onmyoji who are studying the evil arts and wish that you would be rich and wealthy immediately. If you can show it to yourself, then what?
Not every Onmyoji with evil intentions will change his or her life? By then, how many do you think will be left who can only think about accumulating Yin and Yang merit? Yin and Yang pursue balance, and giving you this ability is to allow you to help
People, rather than helping oneself, otherwise it would go against the very nature of spiritual practice.”
I was too lazy to pay attention to him. Either I would say nothing and pretend to be careless, or I would tell you a lot of reasons. It’s not like I didn’t know. “I just want to know why my grandma is crying! You said that.”
What are you doing!"
"This is what Lao Xian'er told me, so I just conveyed it."
Zong Bao leaned back: "I have to remind you at any time, otherwise, don't take detours."
I curled my lips: "I really thank you. My grandma told me what you said the day I picked up Xian'er. I was just complaining. Do you understand?"
Zong Bao gave me a dull look: "I don't understand, but I know what pulling wool is."
I raised my eyebrows: "?"
"I pulled it..."
I stepped on the accelerator and was speechless for a moment.
Zong Bao looked at me seriously: "You did it too..."
"you shut up!"
"The red one."
"Liu Zongbao!"
"Okay, let's be quiet together."
I snorted, okay, you win.
Although I felt a lot more relaxed when I came back that day because I was interrupted by Zong Bao, when I went home and lay on the bed at night, I still dreamed about my grandma, and in my dream, I saw my grandma crying towards me.
, I wanted to call her but I couldn't get close. This happened for many days in a row, which made me feel bad. I always felt vaguely that something was going to happen.
"Jiaolong, what's happened to you recently?"
After sending the customer away, I sat on the sofa next to me and gently rubbed the Qingming point on the bridge of my nose: "It's okay, I probably didn't get enough rest."
Wen Xiaoni patted me on the shoulder: "Don't work too hard." After saying that, she came to Zong Bao in boredom and said, "Ah! Jiaolong, come over and take a look. Zong Bao is lazy. He's watching that during his working hours.
newspaper!!"
Zong Bao didn't even raise his head and replied: "It was time to get off work five minutes ago."
Wen Xiaoni made a sound, leaned close to the newspaper he was reading and muttered: "The President of the United States announced at the White House on May 1 that the leader of Al Qaeda, BLD, had been killed by the US military... Oh, is it true or false?
I thought he was dead long ago, Zong Bao, you still watch international news, you also pay attention to terrorists..."
I was startled for a moment, then stood up and walked to the front desk in a few steps, staring directly at the spread newspaper: "Who died?"
"Pfft." Wen Xiaoni then laughed: "Jiaolong, are you also interested in this thing? It's normal for a terrorist to die. Besides, I've seen him die several times on the news, so I don't know.
It’s true or false, but he is quite powerful.”
I didn't answer. I looked at the bearded head that took up half the page of the newspaper and thought of the spear I flashed on New Year's Day: "How did he die?"
When Zong Bao saw me looking at this picture, he took out the following pages and looked at them, saying, "He was shot to death."
"He was beaten to death?" I wanted to frown and said, "Something's wrong. Doesn't it have anything to do with the spear?"
"Spear?" Zong Bao raised his eyes and glanced at me, then lowered his head and continued reading the newspaper: "No one uses that thing now."
I looked at the newspaper again and muttered: "That's not right. What does the spear I saw mean?" Is there something wrong with me?
Thinking about it, I continued to watch the news until I saw the last sentence, and finally understood in my mind, 'The US military stated that this is a landmark operation in the field of counter-terrorism - Operation Poseidon Spear.
So that’s it, I felt some inexplicable waves in my heart at that moment, and I felt like I was seeing the moonlight through the clouds. I can’t describe this feeling. I feel like an arrow about to leave the string. As long as I draw the bow fully, I don’t know.
How far can you go?
"Hey, Jiaolong, look, isn't this the theme park in the city? It's a pity that the original one has been demolished. Do you still remember, that's where I confessed to you for the first time..."
I put down the newspaper in my hand and looked directly at the page that Wen Xiaoni was pointing to. The headline read, 'The theme park in the city will be renovated, so stay tuned, a new themed world of fun will soon be presented!'
"It's a pity that the original Ferris wheel is gone. The landmark building will expand its area and replace it with this building called 'One Heart City'. Jiaolong, look at this..."
Following the title, the newspaper introduced a new landmark building in a large space, a building with a heart-shaped pattern. The name is really nice, it's called 'City of One Heart', and there was even a preview picture next to it. I took a quick look.
After taking a look, there is an annotation of the building next to it. After the completion of the 'City of One Heart', it will not only form an indoor swimming pool, entertainment, catering, clubhouse, and accommodation in the happy world, but also become the largest indoor theme park in the country.
Bringing more recreational experiences to citizens...'
I frowned slightly. The following are interviews with citizens. Everyone is obviously looking forward to this 'City of One Heart', and some experts have come forward to point out that buildings like the 'City of One Heart' are more suitable than Ferris wheels.
As a city landmark, its conspicuous shape is likely to cause a sensation in the country, and its meaning is profound and beautiful. It will definitely become famous after it is completed.
"Jiaolong, this is so good. What should I do? I still prefer the Ferris wheel."
I looked at the hollow building. Just looking at the shape, it’s not up to me how much effort it takes to build it. That’s the architect’s business. And it might be more beautiful when it’s built. After all, it’s heart-shaped.
Nowadays, you can see from TV that there are all kinds of weird-shaped buildings. It seems that if these designers don’t design something awkward, they can’t show their personality. People these days seem to have fallen into a strange circle.
The more unconventional and innovative it is, the more people will pay attention to it. But if I give up on this 'city of one heart', I will accept it, but it is actually hollow, which means that after the building is completed, the airflow will move back and forth in the middle.
, cannot gather Qi, this is a taboo in Feng Shui.
"Jiaolong, why don't you say anything? I remember that you were looking for me just because you wanted to visit this theme park. Don't you feel a little disappointed now? I remember when I took the train into the city, I was so far away.
I saw the Ferris wheel from afar. I thought this new building could be used to build a Ferris wheel. Who knew that the area would be expanded to cover the whole building... Hey, maybe this is the development of a city. Jiaolong, please comfort me.
…”
I looked directly at Zong Bao: "Zong Bao, I remember that our store has a map of the city. Bring it over and let me take a look."
Zong Bao raised his eyes and looked at me: "What do you want to do with the map?"
I pointed to the "City of One Heart" in the newspaper: "I want to see if this place is suitable for building this building. Please show me the map."
Zong Bao did not move: "They are going to build something, can you stop it?"
I was stunned for a moment, then looked back at the 'City of One Heart', "Yes, it's useless even after I read it. This is a project jointly developed by real estate developers and the government. It has nothing to do with us ordinary people. We can build whatever we like.
Bar……"
Zong Bao lowered his eyes and continued to read his newspaper: "Some people will listen to you if you say it at the right time. Now it is useless to say too much, it is a waste of saliva."
"What do you mean, Zong Bao, are you saying that someone will ask me about this building?"
I was startled for a moment, and just as I asked, the cell phone placed aside rang. Zong Bao raised his eyes and looked at me: "Take it." I breathed: "Zong Bao, are you being so mysterious to me?
I'm in a hurry with you, really... Hey, Xiaoke."
"Jiaolong, can you come here early this month? It's best to come tomorrow! I have good news to tell you!"
I glanced at Zong Bao, turned around and looked at the door: "What good news."
"Do you know Zhuo's Real Estate?"
My heart shook, and I lowered my voice unconsciously: "I know."
"Ha, do you know that the theme park was acquired and built by Zhuo Corporation?"
I turned around and looked at Zong Bao again: "Yeah."
There was excitement that could not be hidden in Xiao Ke's voice: "You know, you are so prescient. Didn't you agree to be on that Feng Shui World show before? Who knew that a person in charge of Zhuo's called me a few days ago?
I called and asked Mr. Cheng to take a look at the architectural feng shui of Happy World. The reason was that Mr. Cheng was low-key enough. They also said that they had planned to find Mr. Sun before, but considering that Sun Jiji was too flamboyant, they did not want to
I like Feng Shui masters to use the name of their group to promote, Jiaolong, this is simply a pie falling from the sky. Even if there is no need to use the media for publicity, when the Happy World is completed, the industry will know that it is our boss who provides Feng Shui.
Look, when the time comes when Happy World takes over, our Mr. Cheng will definitely become famous, Jiaolong, this is all due to you!"
I opened my mouth: "You mean, you want me to help you look at the Feng Shui of Happy World now, right?"
"Yes, have you read the newspaper recently? Just read the City of One Heart. You should come here first. Then the person in charge of the Zhuo family will come to contact you..."
I suddenly thought of a person and felt nervous: "Wait a minute, Xiaoke, you know it's not convenient for me to show up. They will be very careful about this kind of thing. They need to communicate face to face to ensure that everything is not right. I don't think paper can keep the fire.
Otherwise, let’s push this matter aside.”
"Don't mention it, Jiaolong. It's rare to see such a large-scale Feng Shui bureau that requires onmyoji to look at in a few years. Isn't it a pity to just push it away like this? I know that you have been acting as an unsung hero, which may be harmful to yourself..."
"Xiao Ke! You misunderstood me. I'm just afraid that if Zhuo's boss asks for face-to-face communication, what will we do then? If Cheng Baize is not here, do I need to step forward?"
I don't want to see Zhuo Jing's father in this situation.
"You are overthinking Jiaolong. They will just send someone over to communicate with us, mainly to seek advice, because Zhuo's boss is more interested in Feng Shui. I heard that every real estate he develops has a well-known
Don't worry, the Feng Shui master is planning. I just want to see if it is appropriate to transform the former Ferris wheel into the 'City of One Heart'. If we really need to come forward to communicate, can I take the initiative? Jiaolong, please help me.
Just think of it as doing it for Mr. Cheng."
I didn't answer, but looked at the date on the electronic wall clock. It wasn't June yet, so he probably wouldn't be back.
"Also, Jiaolong, this kind of opportunity is rare for Onmyoji. Don't you want to show off your skills? Just look at the small home feng shui. It will definitely be different from this one. Believe me, I will push you."
You will regret it too."
I took a deep breath: "Well, you make an appointment with the person in charge of the Zhuo family for me tomorrow, and I will talk to him directly about this 'City of One Heart'. Of course, it is his business whether he listens to my advice or not."
Yes, I will arrive early tomorrow morning so we can make a quick decision."
"Hey, okay, thank you Jiaolong, let's see you tomorrow."
I hung up the phone and glanced at Zong Bao: "Old Xian'er told you that I would go see this 'City of One Heart'?"
Zong Bao hummed and said nothing.
"Did Lao Xian'er tell you whether my viewing went well?"
Zong Bao shook his head: "The 'City of One Heart' cannot be built."
I bit my lip and looked at the completed renderings of the 'City of One Heart' in the newspaper. Putting aside some miscellaneous personal thoughts, this building is indeed a taboo in terms of Feng Shui, and my heart is still empty.
, where is the city of one heart? It is clearly a hollow city. The heart is empty, so how to support it? What is this designer thinking? Do all designers know some Feng Shui? I don’t know.
Isn't it stuffed with donkey hair or something? What the hell is this!
In fact, if this matter had nothing to do with the Zhuo family, and it had been any real estate developer, I would definitely have passed it over with indignation. But when I think of the Zhuo family, it is still at such a critical moment, and I still feel weak and extremely confused.
Unspeakable chaos!
…
Every time before I go out, I have to visit my grandpa and tell him that I am going away for a few days and not to let him worry or anything else. But this time as soon as the car drove to the door of my house, I watched a big battle live. Of course, the female lead was still
The eldest aunt, but the second female lead has retreated to the background, which means that this time it is not the eldest aunt who fights with my mother, but the eldest aunt and the uncle's husband!
Of course, as my aunt is a warrior-level player, I am used to her yelling and cursing, so I just bypassed my aunt's words and said a simple goodbye to my grandpa and went out. After all, I am not traveling far away, so I don't need to say much.
Grandpa urged me to leave quickly, saying that there was a commotion at home and not to get involved. I nodded, but I wanted to tell the grandson a few words, but I didn't look at her.
As soon as I walked out of the yard, I saw my aunt pointing at my uncle's nose with a look of sorrow on her face: "Tong Dawei! Are you sorry for me? How dare you break your shoes under my nose? You tell me! What's wrong with her?
She seduced you! Did you see how big her ass is! You shameless bastard! You are almost fifty years old and you are still in love with me! If you are looking for a lady, don’t look for her to disgust me! You are
I’ve never seen a woman before, you!!”
"Ruby Lin, please keep your voice down, don't you think it's embarrassing for you!" The eldest uncle looked at the aunt with a red face, and his eyes flickered to avoid the neighbors who were watching in groups at the door.
I walked directly into the car and honked the horn twice to signal the onlookers to move away. What was there to see in this bustle? I was used to my aunt being startled, so I didn’t dare to say anything outrageous to her.
interest.
"I won't keep my voice down! I'm going to scold that man who works for my family and steals my men! What a shame! I'm so horny and thirsty! Don't show off your shame, he came to my house with broken shoes.
!You don’t know who I am, Lin Xinyun! If you make me angry, I will let all Anton know that you are a scumbag! Let your ancestors know for eight generations that you are not a good pie! Where did you die! Don’t give it
I'm hiding, get out of here!!"
"You can do it!!!"
"Okay, Tong Dawei, you dare to hit me! Dazhi! Come out quickly! Your sister was beaten! Your brother-in-law beat me for being a bitch! Dazhi!!!!"
I started the car, turned around and drove out. By the way, I glanced at the playful faces of the neighbors who were watching the fun. I was lying if I said I wasn't angry. Lin Xinyun is my aunt, even though I am older than me.
My aunt had a festival, and I didn’t want to get involved in her affairs, but she and these neighbors didn’t have a festival either. Not only did they not hold each other, they also looked at each other enthusiastically. Anyone who saw this scene would get angry.
As soon as I drove onto the street, my cell phone rang. While looking at the traffic, I slowed down and answered the phone: "Hello."
"Xiao Lin, I am Aunt Sun..."
"Oh, Aunt Sun, I went home just now and didn't look at you. I'm going out to the city in the next few days. Please pay more attention to my grandpa. If anything happens to him, wait until I get back...
"
"Xiao Lin, then, I'll wait until you come back and then I won't do it."
I frowned, and Aunt Sun's voice sounded full of grievance: "Why don't you quit? The salary..."
"It's not about money, Xiao Lin. It's about your aunt. I really can't bear it anymore. She always says that I have something to do with your aunt. I'm not that kind of person. I just clean the room normally and she says that I
She seduces your uncle, and when I cook, she says that I deliberately cook your uncle’s favorite dishes. When have I ever been dumped like this? I really can’t stand your relatives, Xiaolin, I won’t do it again.
I insist on waiting for you to come back, and you can ask your friends or someone in the county to help you find someone else in the past two days, I can't do it anymore."
"Hey, Aunt Sun, Aunt Sun..."
The other party hung up on me directly, and I sighed speechlessly, what the hell is going on! (To be continued)
