Tomb Raider: I Can Hear Antiques Talk

Chapter 6
This time, Xiao Ran didn't bother anymore, but felt that someone was always whispering in his ear, making him upset.

When he woke up in the morning, he didn't feel the soreness from yesterday. It seemed that he didn't bother him anymore last night.Now he felt more and more light and comfortable in his body, and a power that wanted to explode at any time was accumulated in every muscle.

After moving his body, he felt a tightness in his waist. He reached out and took out the yin and yang mirror.He used to look at his mobile phone when he opened his eyes, but he was in a daze for a moment, and habitually looked in the mirror.

This photo scared him and threw the mirror aside with an "ow".

In the mirror, the face he saw was not this life, but the face that really belonged to him in the previous life.

"What are you arguing about..." Yajiu Jiukuo muttered.

Xiao Ran ignored him, carefully picked up the yin and yang mirror, and slowly turned to his face.

It was still Xiao Ran's face in this life, in his 20s, young and handsome, with disheveled hair and stubble on his face... I'll have to take care of it later.Why did I have a pimple on my face, squeeze it...

No, these are not the point!What happened to what you saw just now?Could it be that I am dazzled?
"The good man is merciful, the poor are polite. Did you scare you just now? It's really a sin."

A voice sounded in his head, it was not like the naughty and hoarse voice of Yasujiu Kuo or the mocking cruelty of Guan Shandao, but gentle and modest, which brought a trace of peace to Xiao Ran's heart.

"Suppressing evil and yin and yang mirror? Are you talking?" Xiao Ran's tone could not help being polite.

"It's the poor way, bothering me..."

"Where is it, sir... Daoist... You are too polite!"

Hearing that the two of them were so polite, Yau Jiukuo interjected: "Yo Yo Yo, you were not so polite to me two days ago. Look at the dishes and put them on the dishes, Lao Xiao is really pretending to be a good grandson..."

"shut up!"

"shut up!"

Xiao Ran and Yin Yang Jing scolded at the same time, which startled Xiao Ran.I didn't expect that humble voice to be so violent.

"I'm rude, I'm sorry..."

Achilles Jiugui is now in a good mood: "Look at you, do you know the true face of this stinky Taoist priest? He scolded me all night last night. I said I would take you to find immortals and medicines, but he said I He has ulterior motives; I told you to teach you how to live forever, but he said I was killing you; I said I would take you to listen to the debate, but he said I was a thief. Pretend to be sanctimonious, and you and Xiao are really like urinating into a chamber pot—smelly Went to a piece..."

Yin Yang mirror immediately replied: "The way to seek longevity lies in self-denial and self-cultivation, with a pure heart and few desires. Indulging in yellow and white outside the body, material desires are the key link, and by any means, crimes will come later. Not only wanting but admiring longevity, using the so-called celestial medicine to win the world Good luck, and addicted to the world of mortals, have never been happy with retribution. Let's talk about yourself, how did you suck Xiao Shanren's blood, don't you know?"

"Hey! The ignorant Lizi doesn't cultivate his experience but only shows off his tongue, so is your mother and maidservant!"

"There are countless gods, old people who don't cultivate and rely on their old ones to sell their old ones, please be kind and break it!"

The hoarse voice on the side suddenly laughed wildly: "Hahaha! Let's fight! He keeps coming to kill me, come over and let me slash twice, and I guarantee you will all be cut off!"

Xiao Ran looked back, only to realize that the Guanshan knife was probably not hung securely, and fell to the ground at some point, and a piece fell out of the scabbard.

It's all messed up, and the room is too lively.

"Go back to sleep! What's the matter with you!" Xiao Ran inserted the Guan Shan knife back into its sheath and hung it up carefully.

Judging from the conversation just now, these two guys were the ones arguing with him all night last night.This yin and yang mirror, who is only over 100 years old, is full of righteous and awe-inspiring principles, but he has the bookish spirit of a young student, which is indeed a bit cute.But how to use it, you have to be careful.

Xiao Ran asked politely: "Xiao Daoist, if you dare to ask about your background and ability, is it convenient to disclose it?"

"Good people are kind, Pindao used to be the Liuyun Temple in the suburbs of Beijing. Taoist Xuanfeng personally consecrated the Yin and Yang Mirror to suppress evil. First hang in the Sanqing Hall and listen to the jade voice of Tianzun for 50 years. Then enter the Tibetan Scripture Hall and read the scriptures for 50 years. Then enter The Temple of Fumo has suppressed evil spirits for 50 years. Afterwards, he lived among the people and was fortunately blessed by Xiao Shanren.

"The poor way knows people's minds, and everyone who sees them has a photographic memory, and there is no place to hide from the unpredictable mind; it can suppress demons and subdue demons, and all monsters and ghosts can reveal their true colors no matter how they take shape; they can also dispel charms. Confusion, like being fascinated by evil things, can help you break the illusion and reveal the truth."

Xiao Ran understands, in short, it is able to take pictures of the truth, goodness and beauty, and distinguish the fake from the ugly, similar to the function of the original camera of a mobile phone... let's upgrade it.

But just like the saying "the bright mirror hangs high", it's good to hang him on the door of the store, or take it with you when you go out to scan the goods, so as to discern people's hearts.

After all, you can somewhat guard against someone who deceives you with fake things, but you can't guard against someone with evil intentions.

"However, what do you need me to do, Daoist Master? Could it be that you also want to drink blood..." Xiao Ran was careful.

"Poverty Dao doesn't engage in feudal superstitions like demons and crooked ways! Our former abbot said that Taoist disciples must believe in science! But... if you can give three sticks of incense and a cup of tea on the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, I will be very grateful. If there are melons Fruit snacks..."

"Tch, a fake Taoist priest pretends to be pure-hearted and pretends to have as few desires..." Yarrow Jiukuo interjected.

"Xiao Jiu, you carnivorous and sleepy skinny!" Yin Yang mirror retorted.

"Xiao Jiu?! Is this your name?!"

Seeing that there was going to be another quarrel, Xiao Ran hurriedly interrupted: "Come on, the quarrel made my brain hurt. I wrote down the request of the Taoist leader. In the days to come, incense, tea, fruit, and snacks will definitely be indispensable. In the future, at home, You and Guan Shandao helped me guard the house with one article and one weapon; when we went out, you and Xiaojiu looked at people and things one by one, please worry about it."

"Good people are merciful, and the poor will definitely try their best..."

Just as he was talking, there was a knock on the door suddenly. When he opened the door, he saw Liu Shengli with a panicked face.

"Boss, there is a man knocking on the store door with a swollen face. Have you offended someone? Go and have a look!"

After thinking about it, Xiao Ran was overjoyed, it should be the fat man who came.It seems that there was no problem with yesterday's plan. They abandoned the big gold tooth and turned to find themselves.

"Look at your virtue, it's really embarrassing to me. Go clean up and open the door, I'll go there later."

Xiao Ran got dressed, washed up indiscriminately, put the yin and yang mirror in his pocket and rushed to the front hall.At the door of the store, a tall and strong figure stood there smoking a cigarette.

Who else could it be if it wasn't Fatty Wang?
"Yo fat man! You are auspicious! I just said why the magpie called me to get up today. It turns out that a distinguished guest came to the door! Is it just you? Where is Master Hu?"

Hearing Xiao Ran's warm greeting, Fatty Wang turned around, with a faint smile on his face: "He's still cleaning up at home, Young Master Xiao, I'm here to say goodbye to you. Lao Hu and I will catch the train at noon today and go to Xijing .”

Hearing this, Xiao Ran froze instantly.

"Xi...why are you going there?"

"Hey, you just finished mentioning yesterday, and as expected, a grandson came here. He talked and acted exactly according to the routine you said, and the order was not bad. It's old nonsense. Zhaojing's mind is too lively. If you can’t get along here, why don’t you change places and continue selling tapes.”

In the original plot, before they met Da Jinya, the two did plan to go to Xijing.

But now, with the influence and help of Xiao Ran, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan have escaped the evil path of inversion, embarked on the broad road of self-employment, and marched towards the glorious million-dollar household. This is really...

The bullshit has pulled out the twins!
Xiao Ran couldn't figure out what went wrong.Could it be that he forcibly changed the plot and conspired to seize wealth and power from Da Jinya, which caused the original story line to be distorted?

Is this the butterfly effect?This is the moth effect!
"Good man, he's lying. Besides, the person who was with him yesterday is also at the west tea stand." Yin Yang Jing spoke suddenly.

Xiao Ran looked to the west, and saw a person lowering the brim of his hat, sipping a big bowl of tea.Although the upper body was changed into a leather jacket, the flared trousers were still the ones Hu Bayi wore yesterday.

Xiao Ran thought quickly, which song did these two people sing?

Yesterday he appeared out of nowhere, which made Hu Bayi wary first.Then he explained all the words and deeds of Da Jinya after that, and Da Jinya acted according to the original plot, so would Hu Bayi think that Xiao Ran was singing a double reed with Da Jinya?
Or maybe he felt that he was deliberately dismantling the Dajin Yatai, but he couldn't figure out the grievances between the two, so he didn't want to get involved?

But if they were really afraid of being tricked, so they made up their minds to leave, why did the two of them come to him so early in the morning?He and Fatty just met by chance, far more than a special trip to say goodbye.And Hu Bayi, still pretending to be sitting there like a wolf with a big tail...

That's right!It must be what happened yesterday that made the two of them suspicious. Although they didn't agree to Da Jinya, they didn't make up their minds to cooperate with him, but after all, they still wanted to get rich, so they came to visit him early in the morning. bottom.

Such an excellent scout Hu Bayi, he really can't be led by the nose casually.

Xiao Ran smiled wryly, it seemed that he had to work harder.Sure enough, the adaptation can't be made up randomly, otherwise if you dig the wrong hole, you have to bury it yourself, and it's easy to fold yourself into it.

In the future, it is better to be cautious. Only by adapting to the general environment can we achieve great things. He has to keep this in mind.

"Come on fat man, it's not a problem to stand up and talk like this, we have to talk wet."

After finishing speaking, he bypassed the fat man and walked straight to Hu Bayi's tea table: "Master Hu, let's make a table."

When Hu Bayi heard Xiao Ran came to say hello, he didn't need to pretend, he took off his hat and called the fat man to come and drink tea together.

"Master Hu, let's get straight to the point. I know we met by chance, so you have no reason to believe me. But if you are really not interested in me, then you can't, otherwise there is no need to come to me, right? "

Hu Ba must have looked at Xiao Ran firmly and said: "I really don't believe you, but I just want to see who you really are, how can you be at ease when you plan to plot against us?"

There was a bit of hostility hidden in these words, it seems that Hu Bayi's reckless actions yesterday really pissed off a little.

"No way, old Hu, you see, this store really belongs to Boss Xiao, you really worried too much before..." The fat man smoothed things over.

Sure enough, they even suspected that the address given yesterday was fake.But if they can come, there is still a chance to restore trust.

Xiao Ran suddenly thought of an idea, and said to the two of them: "Both of you, please trust me once, and I will take you to meet someone."
