Chapter 88: Shangguan Liuyun

  I am someone who does whatever comes to mind and has moved beyond petty interests.

  I spent 100 yuan taking Zhao Shenyu out for a meal, and then I only had 20 yuan left in my pocket. I felt the money in my pocket, and it's hard to describe how bitter I felt inside. Then I accompanied Zhao Shenyu strolling around on the street for a while, fortunately we didn't buy anything. After sending her back to the dormitory, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

  After sending Zhao's shirt back to the dormitory, I ran back to my dormitory, put on the yellow Taoist robe in my backpack, and then took a bus to Guanyin Bridge.

  Guanyin Bridge is one of the most prosperous places in Jiangbei, Chongqing. Even the aunties dancing in the square are more numerous than elsewhere. After I arrived, I found a Dicos on the pedestrian street, ordered a Coke, and sat down to ponder life ideals.

  I sat here until it was past 7 o'clock in the evening, I took a look at the time and thought it was about right, so I walked to Jia Nong Underground Commercial Street, which is where I first saved Hong Zhuo. I casually found a place to sit down, then closed my eyes.

  Generally speaking, someone like me who is dignified and majestic in appearance, wearing a Taoist robe, will definitely be mistaken for a fortune teller, and soon someone will come to ask for a reading.

  As expected, I closed my eyes for a moment and someone opened their mouth and said to me: "Brother, don't close your eyes."

  I opened my eyes and took a look, damn it, he was actually a beggar. This guy was dressed in tattered clothes, his face was black like he had smeared coal on it, and there was even a big booger hanging from his nostril.

  Of course, I certainly can't judge people by their appearance. These beggars, one by one, look like they're begging for food, but they're all rich people. The money they make from begging in a day is much higher than any white-collar worker's salary.

  "Sir, you have an extraordinary aura. Are you seeking to know your future prospects, fate or marriage destiny?" I asked with a hint of a smile, feigning a wise and knowing demeanor.

  "Get out of here, you're still young and have a future ahead of you. You're taking up space that belongs to me. Are you new to this line of work? Don't you know the rules?" The beggar cursed at me as soon as he opened his mouth.

  If someone else said that to me, I'd beat him up, but I don't dare mess with this guy. It's not because I'm afraid of losing a fight, it's just that he's filthy all over, and the boogers in his nose are disgusting. If we were to get into a fight, as soon as he comes at me and gives me a hug, I'd be done for.

  "Cut it out," I said with my mouth, but also stood up and changed places. How could I have the same understanding as these beggars?

  Honestly, I really look down on these people who make a living by begging. They have hands and feet, but are lazy and don't want to work, so they come out to beg. These people truly have no place in my eyes.

  I walked to the entrance of Jia Le Fu supermarket and sat down, there was a good flow of people here. I had just sat down for a minute when an old man came up to me.

  The old man was wearing a red suit and had a gold ring on his right hand. He looked at me with curiosity, walked over and asked: "Mr. Yin Yang?"

  "Ah? Is the old gentleman asking about my fortune or inquiring about my children's careers?" I hastily asked with a smile, this old man looked over 50 years old, his hair was slightly gray, but that suit he wore, that ring, it was obvious he was a wealthy person.

  "This is interesting, will you tell my fortune?" The old man nodded and said: "Follow me."

  He finished speaking and walked ahead, I was delighted in my heart, it must be a big business, I hastily followed behind him.

  He took me to a coffee shop, found a corner seat and sat down. After I sat down, he also didn't speak. The old man ordered two cups of coffee and asked me: "Young brother, how long have you been in this line?"

  I slightly furrowed my brow and said, "Start from scratch."

  "Where did you learn from?" The old man asked me with a smile.

  "No master, a book passed down from ancestors to learn by myself." I was a bit impatient, of course, and tried not to show it. In our line of work, we definitely can't lose our temper with customers.

  "You must be the successor of the 'Mountain' book." The old man said, handing over a business card and a black token: "My name is Shangguan Liuyun, this is my business card. Young brother, when you have time, come to Beijing to play with me. This token was given to me by my old friend Liu Boqing, I haven't had the chance to use it yet. I see that you will encounter a great calamity in a short period of time, so consider this as my gift to help you avoid the disaster."

  "Shangguan Liuyun?" I was shocked in my heart, having heard of him before. It's said that Shangguan Liuyun is China's most formidable Fengshui master.

  "Why did you give this to me?" I frowned, he must have had a reason for giving it to me, it couldn't be just because of my extraordinary temperament and majestic demeanor.

  Shangguan Liuyun stood up: "Let's just say I've given myself a good deed, this disaster is not just about you, it affects the lives of many people. It will come soon, that's all, if you have time, you can come to Beijing to find me."

  After finishing, Shangguan Liuyun walked out of the coffee shop with big strides. I originally wanted to catch up and ask what was going on, but I didn't go after all. These things, as long as these people don't want to say them, you can't get anything out of them no matter how hard you try asking.

  After Shangguan Liuyun left, I didn't have the mind to continue deceiving Qian anymore.

  What did Shangguan Liuyun mean by "jie" after all? Revenge of the Miao Wu Sect?

  I couldn't figure it out in my mind, I returned to school at 9:30, walked to the dormitory, and Brother Yingjun was about to tell me some get-rich-quick plan, but I didn't have the mood to listen to his daydreams, so I directly pushed him away and fell asleep on the bed.

  ……

  Butterflies! So many butterflies.

  I am standing in the square of our school at this moment. The sky is filled with blood-red butterflies flying around, and the whole world has turned into a bloody red color.

  ……

  I woke up with a start, panting heavily. Was that just a dream? It felt too real, and my back was already drenched in cold sweat.

  I looked at the time, and it was already morning on the second day. Those butterflies from just now, could they be the great calamity mentioned by Shangguan Liuyun? If it's really like in my dream, then it's too terrifying. What are those butterflies? Ghosts? Monsters? Or something else?

  I was just thinking, when suddenly my right hand transmitted a severe pain, like being pricked by needles, it hurt so much that I felt as if this hand was about to fall off. I gritted my teeth and rolled up my sleeve, took a look at my right hand, and at this time the black evil energy on my right hand had already begun to expand.

  I've been having too leisurely of a day, it seems like my right hand has started to get serious.

  I clutched my right hand tightly with my left hand, gritted my teeth and lay on the bed, and it wasn't until ten minutes had passed that the pain gradually subsided.

  The evil energy in my right hand, I just wanted to let it go with the flow, feeling that there was still a year before I could find the zombie blood, but the pain earlier made me realize that this matter couldn't be delayed any longer.

  I washed up, changed clothes and hurriedly gave Hong Zhuo a call.

  "Hey, Ah Feng, what made you think of calling me?" Hong Zhuo asked on the other end of the phone.

  "I feel something is going to happen, you'd better come out quickly." I said: "Let's meet at that house you rented, this matter can't be made clear over the phone."

  After hanging up the phone, I ran out of school, took a taxi and went to Hong Zhuo's place. When I got there, Hong Zhuo was already at home, still wearing his white coat. Seeing me arrive, he asked: "What's going on? Why did you call me over in such a hurry?"

  "Yesterday I met an old man, he told me..." I started telling Hong Zhuo about what happened yesterday in detail.
