Chapter 21 The Red Line Boy

On Friday, Mai went to the Jinan Lottery Distribution Center to collect his winnings. After tax was deducted, he got more than 4 yuan, enough to sell pastry shops.

After leaving the distribution center, Mai Mai ran to the nearest bank to deposit the money, and then went straight to the train station.There are quite a few people in the waiting room, all of them dragging huge luggage, waiting for the start of ticket cutting.There was still an hour left in Maimai's car, so he turned around, trying to find a vacant seat, but there was none.

The nearest train started to cut tickets. In an instant, countless people dragged their bags and got up and squeezed towards the ticket gate. Mai Mai was hiding from the crowd, and suddenly heard "Oops" next to him. Turning his head, a boy's big bag was squeezed away. The ball of red thread inside rolled all over the ground, rolling around under the feet of the crowded crowd. The boy was anxious to pick up the people's feet, which caused complaints from the people who were in a hurry to enter the station.Mai Mai saw that the boy was so anxious that his head was sweating, but there were dozens of balls of thread, and he couldn't pick them up, so he knelt down to help pick them up.Picking up one, he was taken aback: the ball of thread was unexpectedly heavy, and it didn't feel like silk thread or wool thread. You could say it was cotton thread, but it was too smooth to tell what kind of texture it was.

The two picked up the balls of thread by picking up the trouser legs of the passers-by. The boy wiped the sweat from his brow and thanked Mai: "Thank you, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have been miserable."

Mai Mai helped him stuff all the balls of thread into the bag, and smiled: "It's nothing." At this time, he looked up and down the boy. He was in his early twenties, and the black jacket was open, revealing a huge rogue rabbit on the green T-shirt. A pair of white jeans with hippie holes.The boy looked very upright and handsome, because he had just been scratched all over the floor, his little face was flushed, and he was smeared with a layer of dust, which looked a little funny.

After a group of people left, there was finally a vacant seat.Mai Mai found a seat and sat down, and the boy sat down beside him, grinning: "Where are you going?"

"Binhai."

"Oh, what a great place by the seaside. I went there once a few years ago, but I didn't have the chance to go again later." The boy wanted to say more, but the phone in his pocket beeped, and he immediately made a sad face, and answered. Picking up the phone, "Hey... what, why did I get into trouble? Who, who said, I didn't lose anything? I didn't lose a single thing!" He said, holding the big bag tightly with guilt.Mai Mai looked a little funny, turned his eyes away, and suddenly found that there was a small ball of thread left under the opposite seat, which was covered with a layer of dust, no wonder he didn't see it just now.Mai went to feel the ball of thread out. The ball of thread was small, and he saw a stone in the sparse red thread, which looked smooth and shiny, not like an ordinary stone.Thinking of those heavy balls of thread, Maimai suddenly realized -- no wonder it's so heavy, how could each ball of thread be stuffed with a stone?What does it mean?Although this stone certainly doesn't look like an ordinary stone, it can't be too valuable, right?Could it be jade?But even if it is jade, why is it entangled in the red thread?

Although he had doubts in his heart, Mai still handed the red thread ball to the boy.One thing more is worse than one thing less, it's just a chance encounter, why do you know so much?The boy was still answering the phone, and when he saw the ball of red thread handed over by Mai Mai, his voice suddenly became quieter: "Well... it's not missing, sure, um... anyway, it's not missing, so it's okay if I pick it up? Who said, what do I say?" I made a mistake when I was on a business trip... Anyway, I didn't lose it... Okay, I see, you are so nagging. You have passed menopause, why are you still nagging... I am going to hang up, long-distance roaming, phone bills If you exceed the limit, you will deduct my salary again... I know, I know, Mrs. Yue! Well, hang up."

Mai Mai watched the boy hang up the phone with a funny face, and stuck out her tongue: "Fortunately, you saw that there is another one, otherwise I must be miserable. Hey, I, um, my name is Xiaoyue, what's your name?"

"Just call me Wheat." After the mandrill incident last time, Wheat really didn't dare to tell others his name casually, but Brother Chun couldn't pronounce his name, so he only said his last name every time.

Xiao Yue looked Mai Mai up and down: "My surname is Mai? Which sect are you from?"

"Sect?" Mai Mai was puzzled.

Xiaoyue was even more strange than him: "Why, you don't even know the master?"

"What...Master..." Xiaomai thought to himself that this kid must have some brain problems, right?

Xiaoyue scratched his head and looked at him: "Aren't you from the Celestial Master's Institute? But you clearly wear the Zhang family's talisman..."

Mai Mai involuntarily reached out and touched the talisman hanging around his neck.Originally, after Shao Jing gave him this talisman, he didn't dare to carry it with him for fear of losing it, so he put it under his pillow.That night Shao Jing called him and said that his luck was bad. Although it sounded unpleasant to his ears, he still took out the amulet, put it in a small bag and hung it around his neck.But how did Xiaoyue see it through the clothes?How did you recognize that it belonged to the Zhang family?

Looking at his subconscious movements, Xiaoyue grinned: "Is that so? Am I right? Well, that smell, I'll say it's from the Zhang family. Hey, is your real surname Mai? I heard The Zhang family does not accept disciples with other surnames."

"This, this is a gift from a friend. Are you a heavenly master too?" Maimai lowered her voice for the last two words.There were people around, and he didn't want to be stared at.

Xiaoyue scratched his head again: "I am not. You really are not from the circle of celestial masters? Then your friends must be from the Zhang family. This talisman is not bad."

Xiaomai touched the talisman subconsciously again: "How do you know it's right?" Anyway, he couldn't see it.

Xiaoyue tilted her nose triumphantly: "Of course! I have learned this before, and you can tell if something is good or bad. This is a talisman for dispelling yin, and ordinary celestial masters can't make this level. Seeing this, almost all ghosts dare not get close."

"A talisman for removing yin?"

"It seems that you are really not in the industry. The Yin-dispelling Talisman is not an advanced spell, but this one is quite powerful. It can dispel almost all kinds of dark energy. The person who wrote this Talisman is very capable. "

Mai Mai thought so, but who is this Xiaoyue?I used to be a celestial master, so I quit now?

"You, do you live in Jinan?"

"No." Xiaoyue's face twisted, and he said angrily, "It's a business trip!"

Wheat thought about what to do with such a rage on a business trip, and was about to change the subject when Xiaoyue started chirping: "I haven't taken a vacation for a year. I'm on a business trip, and I'm on a business trip all day long! I'm surprised, my exes I sit at home and write, why do I just run around? Now these people, running around everywhere, why don’t they just stay at home? In a few days on July [-]th, I will return I have to be busy, ah ah ah - I am exhausted!"

Mai Mai sympathized with him: "Let the boss raise the wages."

Xiaoyue turned her mouth so hard that she wanted to turn her head to the back of her head: "Think about that old man getting a salary increase? Just dream! He said that I am not an official employee, and I don't deserve a salary increase! If I had known earlier, I might as well have gone to the underworld to work--" The following words Swallowed by him abruptly, he said twice, "It's better to go to another house to do it."

When Mai Mai heard the word Jifu, she felt a little puzzled: Is it Difu?Or Defoe?Company name?Or - hell?In the past, he would have thought it was the name of a certain company, but after encountering these weird things, he began to associate it with ghosts.Could it be that Xiaoyue was talking about the underworld?Is he a ghost?No, he said just now that he was wearing a yin-dispelling talisman, and almost all the ghosts dare not approach it.Is he a very powerful ghost?Hey, it's also possible that the Yin-dispelling Talisman was also made up by him casually?

After a burst of horror, Maimai subconsciously moved aside.Can ghosts come out in broad daylight?Or is he not a ghost, but a monster like a white radish?He tentatively asked, "Then what do you do when you run around?"

Xiaoyue scratched his head: "Marriage introduction."

Mai Mai breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he must have thought too much.Have you ever heard of ghosts coming out in broad daylight?Presumably this Diff is the name of another company.It's just that marriage introductions have to run around?

Xiaoyue said sadly: "That's not true. How could it be like this before? It's all because of the people nowadays. The traffic is too convenient to run around, which made me chase from one city to another. Once I ran straight from Tibet to Hainan. Just got it done."

"It's so far away, can it be done? Isn't the two places separated?"

Xiaoyue said proudly: "Of course it will work. Who am I? If there is a red line, everything will work!"

Mai Mai thinks it's funny, isn't this kid blowing too hard?Which dating agency is so good, introducing one by one?

"Are you bragging? Is there anything you can do?"

"Of course!" Xiaoyue patted her chest proudly, "Are you not married? Do you want me to check for you too?"

"Check it out?" Mai Mai was puzzled, "Check what?"

"Of course it's a marriage!" Xiaoyue looked at him like a fool, "Don't be ignorant, I'll check for you because I think you have something to do with the Zhang family."

Wheat is a little tempted.Listening to this Xiaoyue's tone, it seems that he still knows the Zhang family. Even if he is not a celestial master, he will probably look at palmistry or something. If he can really see the marriage...

Speaking of marriage, Mai Mai feels a little sad.He had felt that way ever since he came out of the Distribution Center with the money.On the night of winning the lottery, the owner of the pastry shop had already started counting the items in the shop for transfer. As long as he got the money back, the shop would belong to him.Gui Zi'er is a ready-made master master, everything can run normally immediately, his livelihood problem has been solved, but it seems that there is still something missing.Mai Mai recalled when he started a company with Wei Yan, he was more excited than now, full of anticipation and motivation.After half a year of no serious business, he still ran around, but Wei Yan left.The current pastry shop undoubtedly has a better foundation than the small company I opened at the beginning. As long as it runs smoothly, the income is predictable. However, the excitement of going out into the world back then can no longer be found.

Are you old?Wheat laughed at himself.It's not long after your 24th birthday, so you're getting old?In fact, it was less than half a year since Wei Yan left, but looking back now, it seems that it was a long time ago.Living alone, I feel a little lonely. I once saw a Zheng Yunshu—it’s a good deal, but it’s better not to think about it. When I think about it, I think of the face full of yellow and black stripes—maybe, I really should find someone again?Because of his special sexuality, he doesn’t have many friends. He occasionally enters the social circle and hears people talking about playing or 419. There are really too few people who really want to find someone to live with. Even if there are a few, not everyone is lucky enough to stick to it. Often stay together for a few years, separated because of their respective family pressure.In this regard, he has a lot of advantages, because he has no parents, no one will care about him, but he has had a few boyfriends, but they always blow them up within half a year. Some insiders who met online laughed at him for being too naive, But Xiaomai has always felt that he can always find someone who is willing to live with him, and he can always find it.

"Hey," Xiaoyue stared at him, "What are you thinking? Check it out? Come, come, tell me your date of birth."

Mai Mai said helplessly, "I only know the year, month and day, not the horoscope."

Xiaoyue pouted: "Young people nowadays are like this. They only know the Gregorian calendar, but they don't even know the lunar calendar. You can't expect you to know the horoscope of your birthday! Come on, tell me your date of birth." Saying, pull away From the interlayer of the travel bag, he pulled out a commercial netbook as if by magic.

Mai Mai thought it was funny: "You are still a 'young man now', seeing how old-fashioned your speech is, people who don't know think how old you are."

Xiaoyue grinned, didn't answer this sentence, just opened the netbook, a page popped up, and then asked: "Your date of birth?"

Mai Mai was stunned: "You, what are you doing?"

Xiaoyue looked at him inexplicably: "Didn't I check your marriage for you?"

"Don't you...don't read your palm?"

"...Does it matter if you look at the hand?"

The two looked at each other, and it took a long time for Maimai to laugh: "I thought...you have to look at your palm to see if you want to see marriage, right?"

The corner of Xiaoyue's mouth twitched: "I, I'm not that high...ah, no--" He glanced at Mai Mai's hand, "Can you let me read your palm like this?"

Mai's left hand is still wrapped in gauze.He fell so badly on Dazhushan that a large piece of skin on the outside of his palm was directly peeled off. It was so bloody and scary at the time, and it hasn't fully grown yet, because this time he was going to come out, and he wrapped it with a thin layer of gauze , so as not to accidentally scratch the tender meat that has just grown.In this way, it is indeed impossible for people to read palms.Of course, Xiaoyue's words were obviously an excuse.

Mai Mai hesitated, wondering if he should report his birthday to others.From what happened with the mandrill last time, he knew that he couldn't easily report his name, but his birthday...he really wanted to see his marriage, but this Xiaoyue, is it reliable?

Xiaoyue was still waiting eagerly.Seeing that Mai Mai didn't move, he blinked his eyes: "What's wrong?"

"Otherwise, forget it..." Mai still didn't dare to report her information easily.

"Why?" Xiaoyue was upset, "Are you afraid that I won't be able to check it accurately? Then, use this!" He lightly pressed the side of the netbook, and a small metal piece popped up, "Come on, take a fingerprint. "

"Press what?" Mai Mai was still in a daze, and Xiaoyue had already dragged her index finger to the small metal plate.It seemed that a trace of electricity passed through the fingertips, and then disappeared, and the metal piece retracted.Xiaoyue said proudly: "This is the latest software. Some people remember their birthdays wrong, and this is not wrong." Jumping out, it dazzled Mai Mai, but Xiaoyue seemed to be very used to it, and whispered while knocking: "Mai Qiao, male, born at the time of Renchen on the day of Guiyou in the year of Bingzi in the year of Jiazi, his mother died, and he was destined to meet Hongluan... Eh ?”

Mai Mai was dazed by his series of Jia Zhi and Bing Zi, and was surprised that this software could tell the time of his mother's death correctly. gone?"

Xiaoyue touched his nose: "You, you are a dewy marriage."

Wheat knows the word dewy marriage.But it seems that in his impression, this is not a good word.I remember that an aunt in the neighborhood used to associate this word with wild men and women, and couldn't help but ask, "What does it mean?"

Xiaoyue looked embarrassed: "You, you are too... Everyone has a natural marriage, but you, you can't see the marriage, you only see the dewy marriage..."

"What do you mean by dewy marriage?"

"That is to say, that is to say..." Xiaoyue babbled and babbled for a long time before saying, "It doesn't matter who you are with, it won't last long..."

Mai Mai was stunned for a moment, and it took a few seconds to realize: "Nonsense!"

Xiaoyue was unconvinced: "Why am I talking nonsense? Besides, I didn't say it. This software was edited by Yuelao, so be sure!"

Mai Mai frowned: "What? Yuelao?" He knew Yuelao, the abbreviation of Yuexialao.The problem is, this month old, he seems to be something in the legend, right?

Xiaoyue covered his mouth at once, his black eyeballs rolled around, Xiaomai didn't care about his cute appearance like a small animal, and grabbed him: "What the hell are you--" The word "person" was swallowed by him.

Xiaoyue pursed his lips, and said pitifully, "I, I am the Red Line Boy who is an apprentice under Yuelao."

Mai Mai looked around, fortunately there were not too many people in the waiting room at the moment, and the people in the nearby seats were all dozing off, otherwise people would have heard these words, and probably thought the two of them were either liars or crazy.

"What does the red thread boy do?" No wonder the red thread ball carrying a bag is probably named after this.

"Also, what are those red balls of yours for? Why is there a stone in it?"

Xiaoyue said dejectedly: "Those red lines are the lines of marriage. As long as they are destined in the marriage book, they can form a marriage with the red lines. That stone is the three-life stone, which is used to determine fate."

He explained it so clearly that Mai Mai couldn't help but not believe it: "You...that's the marriage introduction you're talking about?"

"Yeah..." Xiaoyue peeked at Mai Mai with his eyes, "Well, you, are you a comrade? Now this business is really difficult to do. In the past, there were only marriage books for couples, but now there are husbands and wives. It's troublesome. It's..."

Mai Mai grabbed his collar: "Who told you this! Is the dewy marriage you checked for me just now, is it accurate? Why do I only have dewy marriage?"

Xiaoyue complained: "How do I know this? It must be true, but this is your own marriage, and I didn't write it indiscriminately. How do I know why you only have a dewy marriage? Judging from the marriage book, He struggled to flip through his netbook, "Look, you've been using the Red Luan Star for a long time, but it didn't last long. It's obviously only a dewy marriage."

Mai Mai felt a chill in her heart: "Then, what about the future?"

"In the future, let me take a look again. Well, it was always dew before the age of 25-ah! Why is the screen black?"

Mai Mai turned her head to look, and sure enough, the screen of the netbook was black.Xiaoyue opened it again, but couldn't adjust anything: "This, this, what kind of software is this, it's really bad quality, it really can't be used in the trial period..."

"What?" Wheat was about to go berserk, "It's in the trial period?"

Xiaoyue shrank his neck and said in a low voice: "Yes, it hasn't been officially promoted yet, I, I installed it secretly..."

Mai Mai slowly let go of her hand, looking at the innocent eyes of this off-line boy with red lines, she was completely speechless...
