Episode 20, Gate of Life and Death (Part 1) Today is even later

  Mother was busy for half a day and finally cooked the fragrant porridge, which was served on the dinner table. I couldn't see if there were any dark colors on her face, but judging from her attitude and behavior, she seemed really good. There was an unprecedented ease about her.

  After dinner, in my room I asked Ye's mother if the black mole on her forehead was really heavy.

  Yi Dao said, "It's scattered but not gathered, which means our method is still effective. In any case, before Mr. Tai Yi arrived, we couldn't do anything either. Did you ask Auntie where she was born?"

  I said: "Yes, Mother described it in great detail."

  "Alright then, let's go. We'll get ready for tonight."

  I said hello to my mother, and then Ye Yi and I drove straight to the flower and bird market. This time Ye Yi acted quickly, directly buying a parrot, and then driving straight to the outskirts of town to the wheat field. The two of us secretly pulled out a few handfuls of unripe wheat stalks, got in the car and ran off.

  After everything was ready, they set off in their car towards Gao's home.

  As soon as we entered, we saw Old Gao sitting in his usual spot reading a book and drinking coffee. We pushed the door open and when he saw us, he smiled and said: "Ye Xiaozi has been really busy lately."

  "Where's Gao Ni'er?"

  Old Gao said: "How would I know? You two are having a lover's quarrel?" After saying that, he also raised his chin with an expression of "you're bullying my granddaughter and I'll hit you".

  Yeyidao said: "I'm telling you, Lao Gao, other people's daughters are already 17 years old and grown up, why don't you get Gaoni a cell phone? It would be more convenient for her to find her way around."

  Lao Gao put down the thread-bound book in his hand and said, "Ye Xiaozi, don't say you don't understand."

  Yeh smiled and I hastily asked: "What's up? Is there something you want to say?"

  Lao Gao said, "For people with yin-yang eyes, they are most afraid of magnetic interference. Things like computers and mobile phones should be avoided as much as possible when not in use. This can help maintain the body's sensitivity to those things. Yang Xiaozi, take a look at the book that Tai Yi gave you when you have time."

  I forced a smile and hastily nodded in agreement. This old man is no ordinary person, I had understood that long ago.

  Lao Gao said: "Speak up, what brings you to our Xiaoni'er's place?"

  "Ask her for help."

  "How could I not know you're asking her for help? You've been avoiding me from afar when it comes to finding a partner!"

  "Speak quickly, otherwise I'll go to school and block her way myself."

  Lao Gao picked up the thread-bound book again and said, "If you have the guts, then go."

  I always feel that Lao Gao and Ye Yi don't get along, but looking at their relationship, it seems to be okay. It's really confusing what kind of things they have that can cause such a commotion, is it really related to the time I met with Old Lady Gao? Ye Yi said: "Forget it, I'll wait here."

  Lao Gao Tou said: "Has Mr. Tai Yi gone to find Chun Liang Dao Zhang?"

  Ye Yisi sat opposite Lao Gao's head and said, "The news is really spiritual."

  "Cut to the chase, did something big happen in D city?" Old Gao asked.

  Ye Yizhen didn't conceal it either and said: "Yes, someone is openly raising a dragon. It has already harmed more than 100 families."

  "What?" Old Gao threw away the thread-bound book in his hand and scolded, "You Ye Xiaozi aren't capable, how could you not know about such a big thing happening?"

  Ye shrugged and said, "Old Gao, think it through. When there was an emperor, this matter was managed by the Imperial Observatory. Without an emperor, who's in charge now? Besides, do you think I'm capable of managing it?"

  Lao Gao said: "Can't take care of it, should have known earlier. So many people died, you, you."

  "What's with you! You're running a store here, and all the capable people in D City are coming to you for supplies. Have you heard any rumors?" Ye Yi retorted.

  "Who is Junliang Daochang?" I chimed in and asked.

  Lao Gao Tou said, "One of the famous Five Elements of this generation, Chun Liang Dao Zhang is also a top-notch master. This time, being able to get Mr. Tai Yi and Master Chun Liang to join forces, it's not a small matter."

  Yey said: "It's all coincidental that we discovered this, who would have thought someone could actually make something like this."

  Lao Gao also knew that his tone was bad just now, so he spoke in a more gentle manner: "If you need anything, just call me."

  "Of course you won't be left out. You treasure that dagger."

  "Xiao Nier has gone out for a stroll." Old Gao suddenly said.

  "Who with?" Ye Yiqiu asked.

  "It seems like an auntie, I heard Little Ni calling her 'auntie'." Old Gao shook his head and said.

  "Is it Wen Yi?"

  "Oh, right, it's this aunt."

  "I said: 'That's my university classmate, surname Wen, first name Yi. Not Auntie's sister.'"

  Old Gao said: "Oh, no wonder. Alright, you go find her then. Don't linger in front of me if there's nothing going on."

  He Yizhen and I came out of the Gao's house, I called Wen Yi, thinking to myself, isn't Wen Yi supposed to be working today? How does she still have the mood to go shopping?

  After the phone was connected, Wen Yi asked first: "Xiao Yangyang, you miss your sister after not seeing her for a whole morning?"

  One sentence made me blush, and I thought of the scenery at Wenxi's house yesterday, feeling a bit uneasy. I said, "Sister, is that Gao Ni'er by your side?"

  Wen Yi's sister said, "What? Are you dissatisfied with your sister getting old and ugly, and planning to find a new love? Gao Ni'er is your brother's future girlfriend, you can't mess with her."

  "I hastily said: 'Sister, this joke can't be played. It's Ye Yi looking for Gao Ni'er on business. I know she went shopping with you.'"

  Wen Yi's sister heard Goni's voice coming from the receiver: "Sister, how is this?"

  "Not bad, Ye Yatou will definitely like it."

  ……

  "Sister? Where are you guys, I and Ye Yi will go find you."

  Sister said to me after commenting on Goni's outfit, "Central Plaza Department Store, 3rd floor women's clothing. You guys call me again when you arrive." Sister hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

  I told Ye Yi the address and Ye Yi drove straight to the department store.

  Arrived at the third floor ladies' department, and dialed Wen Yi's phone number again. There was no response for a long time.

  "Is he gone?" Ye Yi said.

  I said: "No way, Wen Yi is a heroine of our school, she's a woman of her word. She can't stand us up."

  I paused for a moment and said: "I'll call her again."

  The phone still didn't get an answer, and just as we were thinking of going up to the third floor to take a look around, someone on that side shouted "Come see the excitement".

  My heart skipped a beat as I thought to myself, "Could it be that my senior has gotten into trouble again?"

  He hastily said to Ye Yi, "Let's go take a look."

  A crowd of people gathered in front of a female cargo container, and from afar, I heard Wen Yi's voice: "You scoundrel, you think you can take advantage of us and then leave? Today, I must kick your three legs off."

  Here is the translation:
