The master glanced outside the door and said lightly, "You'll know when that person comes." ”

I don't know what Master means, but Master deliberately sold Guanzi, and I didn't have a trick, so I could only wait for the mystery to pop out by itself. The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the guests in the restaurant had already finished their dinner one after another, leaving only Master and I, and the guy was sitting at the door, staring at the two of us with his head in his hands, maybe waiting for us to settle the bill and leave immediately, or maybe he was afraid that we would suddenly run away and pay the bill.

Dinner has already been eaten, and now that I have drunk two pots of tea, I calculated the time, it should be time at this moment, if we wait like this, I'm afraid people haven't waited, and this restaurant should also bombard us away. I turned my head to look at Master, who was frowning and seemed a little anxious, and I couldn't help but ask, "Master, who are we waiting for?" Could something happen to that person who doesn't come? ”

The master suddenly raised his head to look outside, and said lightly, "He's here......"

I hurriedly looked up and saw that it was pitch black outside, and I couldn't see anything, so I immediately asked Master, "Master, where are you?" ”

The master didn't answer me, but Huo Di stood up, called the guy to settle the bill, and then dragged me away. I was even more surprised, obviously it was waiting for someone, why did we leave without seeing each other when someone came? What the hell is Master thinking? I followed Master out of the restaurant, and the street outside was already dark, and all the shops were closed. But after walking a short distance, Master suddenly said to me, "Ergou, the one who came soon is the messenger who came to find us, but he has not yet responded to the robbery, so we can't see him!" ”

"Huh? Master, did you mean that the person who came to us has already arrived? And the one we have to wait for is the messenger? I looked at the master in amazement, and after getting the master's confirmation, I hurriedly wanted to say something, but I saw a depressed figure on the empty street, with his head bowed and a burden on his back, walking towards the restaurant we had just walked out of, this person gave me the feeling of lifelessness, maybe because of too much work, or maybe it was the helplessness and despair that caused him to be so depressed.

When this man walked to the door of the restaurant, I could see through the light of the lamp, I could see the appearance of this man, as if he was a young man in his twenties, but his clothes and hair were dirty, and he also had a stubble on his face. He lived like a poor man begging for food, but I knew that he was naturally not asking for food, but a messenger sent by Doctor Ge to find his master.

But when the master saw this person, he couldn't help but be stunned and said, "This is ...... This is Ge Caigen, the son of Doctor Ge?! Doctor Ge is such a son, how can he send his son out with confidence? What happened to the Ge family? ”

When I heard that Master knew this person, Master didn't mean to recognize him. I saw that Ge Caigen walked to the door of the restaurant, and the guy immediately waved his hand and said, "We have closed, and it is midnight now, so let's come back early tomorrow morning if we want to eat." ”

Ge Caigen hurriedly clasped his hands and said: "Boss, you can do it, I haven't eaten for two days, I originally came out with money, but I was deceived not long after I left the house, and all the money on my body has been taken away." I didn't have the face to go back, so I had to beg along the street for a few days, as long as I went all the way to Xuanwu Lake, boss, if you have leftovers at home, please give me some. ”

Xuanwu Lake? How did he know that Master was in Xuanwu Lake?

"Xuanwu Lake? This brother, don't make trouble, it's at least more than 200 miles from here to Xuanwu Lake, and you don't have a penny on you, so you have to ask for food everywhere. Fear...... I'm afraid that you will have to walk for at least a month or so to get there. The shopkeeper looked at Ge Caigen, and wanted to close the door, but he still stopped, pointed to the steps at the door and said, "You sit on the steps and wait for a while, I'll go get you a bowl of rice!" ”

The guy in the shop is still good, I nodded slightly, but when I looked back, I saw that the master shook his head and sighed softly, already showing pity. After a while, the shopkeeper walked out with a big bowl of rice and said to Ge Caigen, "Do you have your own bowl?" ”

"Yes! Yes! Ge Caigen said, and hurriedly took out a broken bowl with a gap from the baggage, only to see the shopkeeper turn over and detain the food in his bowl into Ge Caigen's bowl.

When I saw that Ge Caigen was holding a bowl of upside-down rice in the shape of a small mountain, I was shocked and whispered to the master: "Master, this, this, this is the upside rice, will Ge Caigen die here?!" ”

The master frowned, then pinched his fingers and said: "No, it's not yet an hour, his blood and light disaster is after the child's time, and there is still an hour, but I don't know if he can escape this catastrophe, if he can't dodge, then this bowl of rice will be the last meal in his life......"

"No! Master, we have to save him, in order to find your old man, he has become so miserable, Master, can you bear to watch him die? "I anxiously begged Master.

Master turned his head and glared at me, and corrected me sternly: "When did Master Wei say that he would die?" Don't talk nonsense! ”

"But......" I smacked my lips, and continued, "But you just said that this bowl of rice was the last meal in his life, why did you not admit it in an instant?" ”

The master said angrily: "The master just said if, isn't there another situation?" He is now a mixed blessing, but if he can survive this catastrophe, he will definitely be free of disease and disaster in the future, and he will be rich and prosperous all his life. But if we save him, he will still be doomed from somewhere else in the future, and it is better to help him cope with this catastrophe now than to ignore him in the future! ”

I smiled: "Master, can we secretly help him to deal with the catastrophe?" ”

Master gave me a blank look and said, "We can't help him cope with the disaster, we can only symbolically add fuel to the fire...... Let's get out of Qingsi Town right now, wait for him outside, let's go! ”

After speaking, I hurriedly followed the master towards the outside of the town, maybe Ge Caigen didn't know at this moment, in the unknown place behind him, his fate was already quietly changing, and the person he was looking for was by his side. It's a pity that he doesn't know anything about this. When we came to the hillside three miles north of Qingsi Town, I settled down, looked at the silent mountain road below, and asked Master, "Master, will Ge Caigen really pass through here?" ”

The master nodded and said, "When he came out of his home, he must have been instructed by a master to calculate that the teacher was near Xuanwu Lake in the north, so he had to go all the way north to find the teacher, and this road was his only choice." In addition, this place is deserted, and he has long been far away from Qingsi Town, counting the time, when he walks here, it should also be the time to be robbed. ”

I looked around and said in a daze, "Master, this place is deserted, but there are no ravines or cliffs next to the mountain road, and there is only a small hill next to it, and there will be no rolling rocks, how can he deal with the disaster?" Don't...... Could it be that someone intercepted him? Is it a vendetta......

"Shut up!" Before I could finish speaking, the master suddenly glared at me and said sternly: "Although the heavenly secret must not be revealed, it is even more important not to judge the heavenly secret. Otherwise, once the heavenly opportunity is leaked by mistake, it will bear a heavy cause and effect, do you know? ! ”

"Oh......"

I pouted, not daring to say any more, so I agreed, and found a place to sit down with my master. About half an hour later, a figure slowly walked from the direction of Qingsi Town, and after a closer look, it was indeed Ge Caigen, because of his lost and depressed appearance, even if he didn't look at his face, he could recognize it. The bright moon hung high, but on the mountain road, there was not so much light, and it looked dim.

But speaking of which, this young master Ge Caigen is really persistent, he was originally the son of Ge Shenyi, his family is well-off, he should have married a wife and children at home, or made a career, at least he could live a worry-free life, but he was sent by his father Ge Shenyi to find his master. After the money on his body was cheated away, not only did he not complain, but he insisted on going north to find the master, this person is really a loyal and kind person, but he didn't know that the master had taken me to Qingsi Town in a hurry in advance in order to find him first.

When Ge Caigen walked to the bottom of this hillside, he seemed to be tired, and he glanced left and right at the desolate mountain, and couldn't help but find a dry ditch to block the wind and lie down in it. I looked around and found that there was no danger near him, but just when I was puzzled, I suddenly saw a person rushing in the direction of Qingsi Town, this person's footwork was light and vigorous, like a practitioner. At the bottom of the hillside, the figure whose face was not clear suddenly stopped, and at a glance he saw Ge Caigen sleeping in the dry ditch.

"Master......" I hurriedly shouted to Master, but Master made a silent gesture and signaled me not to say anything, not to do anything. I don't understand, the man in black is obviously coming for Ge Caigen, and he slowly took out a dagger in his hand, this is obviously to kill Ge Caigen, didn't the master say that he wanted to do something? Why do nothing? Don't let me do it yet!
