ask incense

After listening to the housekeeper's words, Xiao Pan went to the library to invite out the Avalokitesvara with folded palms, put the Avalokitesvara on it respectfully, and after bowing to the Avalokitesvara with palms together, he felt a lot of dryness in his heart was relieved immediately.

"Spiritual, spiritual." Xiao Pan muttered in his mouth, got up and bowed respectfully to Guanyin again, "Bless you, Dashi."

It's a pity that praying again this time didn't have much effect. On the contrary, when he got up and raised his head to ask Guanyin to bless him again, he raised his head halfway, but just when he saw Guanyin's folded palms, a gust of wind came over his face, which made him confused instead. My eyes were closed, I couldn't stand up straight, so I had to cover my eyes and bend over, groaning in pain.

That gust of wind, unlike the general directionless wind, blows for a while and then disappears. On the contrary, the wind seems to have its own opinion, forming a small whirlwind of its own, sneaking close to the ground, going through halls and corridors, and directly to the outermost Coming from the west courtyard, the doors of all the rooms in the west courtyard opened automatically one by one.

Zhao Ming, who had just applied the medicine on himself, was startled when he heard the door slam, and looked through the screen, but no one came in. He was also surprised that a single wind could blow open his locked door?

The last room that was opened was Pei Ling's room door. When the door opened, the wind came in. It was no longer a small whirlwind, but the wind suddenly picked up, turned into a sharp arrow, and shot straight towards the screen in the room.

The screen fell in response to the sound, and the two people in front of the mirror were blinded by the wind. Pei Ling was able to move after being hit by the gust of wind, and raised his hand to resist the sudden wind for Sai Tianxian.Fortunately, it was just a gust of wind and it didn't hurt anyone, but the mirror on the opposite side was blown miserably by the wind. Pei Ling, who couldn't open his eyes, heard the sound of nails scratching the mirror in a daze, which made people's scalp tense.

Hearing the sound was uncomfortable, Pei Ling turned her back to the mirror, waving her arms to protect Sai Tianxian in her arms, and shouted, "Go!"

Not only was he shouting to Sai Tianxian, but also to whom, Pei Ling didn't quite understand in his heart, so he just said this subconsciously. After blurting out the word "Go quickly", his chest trembled, and his chest was buzzing, and it sounded like a bell buzzing on his chest again.

After a while, the wind finally calmed down, and the sound that made the scalp tense disappeared. Pei Ling, who was bending over to protect Sai Tianxian, looked back slowly. The mirror was still the smooth and bright mirror, clearly reflecting the Pei Ling's face appeared.Sai Tianxian also straightened up and turned his head to look at it. At this moment, the mirror had clearly reflected Sai Tianxian's face, not the scene he saw when he was dazed before.

Pei Ling looked at Sai Tianxian in the mirror and thought, what he saw before must be his hallucination, right?Because he was not sure, Pei Ling checked the mirror more carefully, and finally saw scratches on the edge of the corner of the mirror, like nails.

Pei Ling stretched out his hand in disbelief and touched it. He felt that something was wrong. He wiped it with the edge of his palm again, and wiped the scratch with his thumb. Finally, he lowered his hand and looked at the scratch in disbelief. What's outside the mirror is what's inside the mirror. Pei Ling wiped and wiped it just now. The mirror surface is very smooth, without any scratches or roughness.

"Brother Ling?" Sai Tianxian called him, "What's wrong?"

Pei Ling forced herself to look back at him, "It's all right."

As soon as he finished speaking, the lotus nail he put away fell to the ground, and both of them lowered their heads to look at the lotus nail that fell on the ground.

The butler hurried over, only to see Xiao Pan who was blown to the ground in a daze, the butler went up and kicked him on the ass, "What does it look like, get up quickly."

After being kicked, Xiao Pan hugged the butler's leg instead, "What should I do, it doesn't seem to work."

The butler frowned, unable to understand what was wrong with Xiao Pan, who was acting a little out of line, he flicked his feet twice but failed to get rid of him, and asked impatiently, "What's wrong?"

"I begged the master to protect me, but the master didn't want to protect me, a gust of wind came and knocked me down."

The butler rubbed his forehead, knowing that this kid was really scared, he persuaded him perfunctorily, "You haven't burnt incense yet, you should burn incense well to show your sincerity."

Someone rushed to look for the butler, saying that the young master had something to do, and after the butler said hello, he pulled out his leg from Xiaopan's hand and left.

"Shangxiang?" Xiao Pan, who was still sitting on the ground, repeated the butler's words dubiously. He knew that the butler was dismissing himself, "Can incense be useful?" He was talking alone when he suddenly heard the sound of cracking, and Xiao Pan heard the sound I climbed up to Guanyin and checked carefully, but I didn't see any difference in the image of Guanyin. I thought I was thinking too much, but I looked up and saw the sad face of Guanyin. Avalokitesvara turned from the front to the base behind, and there was a crack in the base!It's an ominous sign.

When Xiao Pan saw the crack, his heart skipped a beat, he had a bad feeling.For some reason, Dai Zhiyi suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, "He said he knows how to exorcise evil spirits."

Pei Ling was supporting the screen, and it happened that Zhao Ming came to visit the door at this time. When he entered the door and saw that Pei Ling was tidying up, he asked, "Your place was also attacked by a strange wind?"

When Pei Ling heard Zhao Ming say "yes", she turned to look at him, "You too?"

"It's not just me." Zhao Ming entered the door and found his own seat and sat down, facing Sai Tianxian who was placed by Pei Ling.As soon as Zhao Ming saw Sai Tianxian smiled friendlyly at him, but Sai Tianxian ignored him, and the beauty didn't respond, Zhao Ming didn't feel bored, but took a closer look at the new suit on him.

"Not only you but who?"

Pei Ling, who had put everything in the house in order, clapped his hands and turned around to the round table. His question brought back Zhao Ming, who was distracted by Sai Tianxian's new clothes.Zhao Ming looked up at Pei Ling who was sitting cross-legged next to Sai Tianxian and patiently making tea, and then said, "The doors of this row of guest rooms were blown open by that gust of wind. You say it's not evil, When everyone saw the door was open, they thought it was the housekeeper who sent someone over to announce the important things one by one, but it was just blown open by the wind, and I was giving myself medicine at that time, the door was locked, and it was blown open. The strange thing is, after the door was blown open, I didn't see the wind blowing into the house, I didn't know it was the wind, I thought someone was bored, opened the door one by one to see who was in the house."

After Zhao Ming finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Pei Ling's room. Although Pei Ling had tidied it up, some of the furnishings were still shifted by the wind.

"Your house seems to be in a miserable state. Everyone else's door was blown open, but your house was completely swept away by the wind." Zhao Ming had no other intentions. He half-jokingly said to Pei Ling, "The doors are blown open one after another, and they end up making trouble in your room. Maybe the wind is just looking for you."

Pei Ling paused when he heard the hand pouring the tea, Zhao Ming's joke really hit Pei Ling's guess, the wind might be coming towards Sai Tianxian, isn't it like this when he was at Yuejia?

Although Pei Ling was suspicious of the weirdness of the wind, he could only deal with Zhao Ming, "It's just a draft, who made our room the last one."

Zhao Ming naturally didn't think too much about it. Although his life was full of ups and downs, he had never encountered any strange things, but this was the first time he encountered them today. However, there are too many strange things in the world. Most of the unresolved phenomena originate from the unknown of nature.Hearing Pei Ling's words now, he couldn't help nodding, "The Tang family courtyard is big, so a little wind passes through the hall, from the inside to the outside, it becomes a strong wind. There used to be a movie where a butterfly with one wing can create a tornado of it."

Pei Ling answered Zhao Ming's words with a smile on his face, and was about to send out the tea that he had brewed in his hand. Zhao Ming saw that Pei Ling's tea seemed to be handed to him, so he naturally reached out to greet him politely. He sent it out, but he didn't receive it, so he was cut off by Sai Tianxian, and he drank it directly.

It was clearly a robbery, Zhao Ming glanced at Pei Ling, thinking that Pei Ling would do something for his recklessness, but Pei Ling just stretched out his hand to give Sai Tianxian Shun, who had finished drinking tea in one breath.Looking back at Zhao Ming's eyes, Pei Ling was quite embarrassed, so Zhao Ming had to find another way to talk about the episode just now, "His new clothes are really nice, did the Tang family send them?"

As far as Zhao Ming is concerned, since he has already entered the Tang family, it is normal to send food and clothes, isn't that what he came for?Being served by others, laughing with guests.

"I'll ask later and give me a new set of clothes."

It was just an ordinary chatter, but Zhao Ming didn't know that he had stepped on Pei Ling's thunder point. Pei Ling had never looked down on anyone, and he didn't disdain those high-ranking young masters. It's just that Sai Tianxian was different in his heart, so He can't compare it with others casually, especially he doesn't want to classify Sai Tianxian as frivolous, but he also knows that Zhao Ming's words displeased him only because he cared too much about Sai Tianxian and lost his bias. So Pei Ling didn't plan to have an attack, but he didn't plan to make tea for Zhao Ming either.

Pei Ling didn't want to mention the matter of clothes again, so he had to change the subject, "I just asked about it, and it seems that the next match will have to wait."

"What's the matter?" When it came to the next competition, Zhao Ming smiled and looked at Pei Ling seriously. After all, it was related to his future, so Zhao Ming had to take it seriously.

"It seems to say that some of Xuan Shao's friends haven't come yet."

"His friend?" Zhao Ming narrowed his eyes.

Pei Ling also wanted to ask Zhao Ming if he knew who Shen Xuan's friend was, but he was afraid that he and Young Master Xuan would be involved if he asked, so he didn't mention it after thinking about it.On the contrary, Zhao Ming took the initiative to speak and wait, "When I went to find him last night, I heard him talking on the phone with someone. Could it be the person talking?"

Pei Ling asked him, "You know?"

Zhao Ming shook his head, "I'm not very clear, I just thought that there was no invitation letter and no treasures, so I came here just after talking, so I paid more attention."

Pei Ling, who failed to get any useful information, sighed, "I just hope that my friend, Mr. Xuan, doesn't come to fight for what I want."

"That's not enough." Zhao Ming reached for the teapot and poured tea for himself, "I vaguely heard that he and the young master of the Tang family were classmates in the past, so they must be old acquaintances. Now that we know each other, what he wants is to be with the old man. It’s enough for the classmate to just say it, why come here and grab it from you.”

"That's true."

Pei Ling said so, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart. When he was talking to Zhao Ming, Sai Tianxian was lying on the table bored, showing great disinterest in the conversation between him and Zhao Ming.Seeing that Pei Ling had finished speaking, he looked at him, then at the glass of water he had finished drinking, and signaled Pei Ling to pour another glass.

Pei Ling took the teapot and poured another cup for Sai Tianxian, and put it in front of him.After watching the tea, Sai Tianxian, who was lying sideways on the table, raised his head, rested his chin on the table, and didn't stretch out his hand, just retracted his chin, holding the teacup like a chicken drinking water, sipping a little.I don't know if it's because he's lazy, or if he made this appearance on purpose for Pei Ling to see.In short, Pei Ling couldn't see him like this, so he just picked up a water glass and fed it to him, telling him to drink slowly from time to time, but he was thinking in his heart, who is that classmate of the young master of the Tang family who is coming so late?Since they are old acquaintances, why did they come to the Tang family's Douxiang Club through others?

Zhao Ming, who drank water by himself with a teacup in his hand, watched Pei Ling feed Sai Tianxian carefully, and said enviously, "You are really kind to him."

Pei Ling looked at Sai Tianxian who was drinking water with kind eyes. After Sai Tianxian finished drinking the water, he turned his head and smiled at him brightly. Pei Ling said unconsciously, "Because he is a Narcissus who needs to be cared for."

The antique shop on Caishi Street was as cold as usual, so the owner was not worried. After all, the business had just been completed two days ago, and it was enough to last for three months.As for the livelihood in three months... let's talk about it at that time. Today, forget the troubles of livelihood for the time being, carrying a pot with a crooked mouth, holding a cattail fan, and humming a little tune in the rocking chair of the shop to spend the day.

"is the boss around?"

Originally in this line of business, after one order was completed, the next order would never come so quickly, but today, I don't know what kind of luck, unexpectedly a customer came.As soon as the boss heard that someone was coming, he immediately jumped up, and when he saw the person coming in, he immediately threw away the fan and water bottle in his hand, and rubbed his hands to greet him, "Yes, I am the boss, what do you want to see? "

The young man who came in first just smiled and didn't say anything, but the middle-aged man who followed up picked up the hollowed-out aromatherapy ball after entering the door.

Seeing the age difference between the two, the boss wondered if they were father and son?Seeing that the older man seemed very interested in the aromatherapy ball, he enthusiastically introduced it, "This thing is from the Tang Dynasty."

The middle-aged man holding the aromatherapy ball smiled slightly, "I don't think it looks like it."

As soon as the man spoke, the boss' face changed slightly when he heard that his accent was wrong, "Aren't you Chinese?"

"Hi." The middle-aged man put down the aromatherapy ball in his hand, bowed slightly to the boss and said, "I am from Kyoto."

The boss's complexion gradually turned bad, and he yelled in his heart, unexpectedly came a little Japan? !

However, the young man who came in at the head was not Japanese, "Boss, we want to come over and ask you something."

The boss turned his head to look at the young man, thinking that they were not father and son, and he came to his shop to inquire without looking at things, what can he inquire about?Could it be related to the cash I received?

The boss thought that the cash collected from Pei Ling caused trouble, and that's right, who else has a big bundle of cash with him now.

Seeing the nervous look on the boss's face, the young man comforted him softly, "We are really just passing by to inquire with you, it's not for nothing, we will pay you."

When he heard that he was paid, the boss swallowed and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Do you know where the family that opened the incense shop went before the dessert shop opposite?"

The boss felt strange, they asked what Lao Qi's family was doing?
