Section 67, Tianji Gate
"Hmm." I nodded in agreement. In fact, as long as I look at the watch, I can accurately say how many minutes and seconds in the next 12 hours, without looking at the time. Even I wonder why, but it's really a strange, completely instinctive situation.
"Because you don't understand the law of the flow of mana in the body, within 12 hours, the mana runs 24 laps in the body, and each lap is accurate for 60 minutes, that is, 3,600 seconds. When the body gets used to it, it's like muscle memory. As long as you think about it, it will naturally give you the most accurate time in 12 hours. The reason why it can't be accurate to 24 hours is that when the day and night alternates early, there will be a chaotic time ranging from a few seconds to a few minutes. Ye Yi explained it to me.
I raised my eyebrows and smiled and said, "So it's like this. I really can't be a wild road like me."
Ye Yi shook his head at me and said, "Actually, you have made rapid progress. According to this development, you can get close to the level of knowing me in another two years. Of course, I'm talking about insight.
"Ha ha~" I smiled again. I was already very satisfied and almost moaned to be satisfied. If... don't think about what you will face in the future.
"Go back and have a rest. I'll teach you when you eat, and then go out with me to do something in the evening." Ye Yi said to me.
"Hmm." I didn't ask Ye Yi what I wanted me to do with him, and he would naturally tell me at that time.
After going back, I chatted with Wen Yi on the phone for more than an hour and fell asleep in a daze.
When I woke up again, it was already dark. The days in winter were really short. Looking at the time on my mobile phone, it was only about 5:30.
I washed my face casually, and I pushed the door out and knocked on Ye Yi's door. Then he followed Ye to eat something casually, took a taxi, and only said that he would let the taxi walk around the city at the foot of Huangshan Mountain.
"Have you found it?" Ye Yi asked me in a low voice.
"Not yet." The two of us sat at the back table of the taxi, holding a compass in my hand, which can be straightened at any time.
Don't be curious. This is a place where Ye Yi asked me to learn to find a place like Gaojia Dienpu. In fact, there are such shops in almost every city. However, if it is not a local in the circle, few people will find its existence. Even if it opens so openly, it will never let laymen know.
If you are a foreigner in the circle, there is a way to find such a store.
That is, every such shop is arranged under the floor tiles at the door, or under the cement, there is a feng shui bureau with an inverted magnetic pole interference compass. This thing has only one function to interfere with the normal operation of the compass. It does not affect the feng shui outside the door, but also can provide a very clear sign.
I didn't ask Ye Yi why he was looking for such a shop in this city, but I held a compass and told the driver to crawl slowly on the city's highway at a speed of no more than 40 miles per hour.
Of course, it's not easy to run. Few such stores will open to the bustling area like Lao Gaotou.
Before getting on the bus, I checked by the way. There are about three old streets in the city, and there are also two places like a funeral street. These five streets are my key caret for.
Good luck. After wandering for more than two hours, we finally found a dark little red door shop at the end of an old street. It looked old and old, just like the vicissitudes of life in the 1930s and 1940s.
After paying to get out of the car, Ye Yi and I stood at the door and looked inside through a small door and window.
The inside seems to be a little brighter than the outside. In the only place on this street where there are no street lights, if ordinary people see the two green lanterns hanging on the door, their legs will be scared.
"Huh? It's snowing~" I saw a snowflake falling on the compass in my hand and looked up and muttered.
"How did you choose such a place to open a store?" I said depressedly, although it is winter, although most of the cities in the south will not freeze in this season, the consequence of pouring garbage and dirty water at the door is that the shiny leather shoes are stepped on the dirty water, and it seems that dirty water can be soaked in leather shoes at any time.
"Go in. It looks like you're going to be slaughtered." Ye Yi smiled.
"Do you have enough cash?" I asked Ye Yi, and it seemed that we had kicked thousands of yuan in our pockets when we came out. You definitely can't pay by credit card in this place, right? I looked up at the plaque with only half left, and I didn't even know the name of the store.
"No problem, go in." Ye Yi opened the door.
I don't know if anyone has found that in ancient times, all doors were opened inward. As people in our industry, almost all doors open inward. Few people push the door out. This statement is called wealth. The word push has the feeling of rejecting wealth.
"Is anyone there?" After pushing the door and entering, Ye Yi asked loudly.
And I almost cried out. Damn it, is there a dead person buried in this room? The smell of such a big rotten corpse.
Ye Yi also frowned and couldn't believe that it would be opened by his peers.
"No one? Such a big smell, it won't be a person who made a fortune, will it?" I said in a low voice. Buying and selling birthday clothes, coffins, cemeteries, and watching feng shui is to do business and take the sunny road. And the business I whispered about "making money to death" has two types: yin trading and yang trading. The yin trading is to seduce people and special dealing with zombies and dead people. Yang Trading is a category of 'grave robbery', which is particularly popular in online novels recently. These two kinds of people are not unpopular. The main reason is that they can't stand the smell of this kind of person. What they come into contact with all year round are things that are too gloomy and evil. As long as something happens, it must be a big deal.
"How many people in this industry don't deal with the dead? Young people should keep a little morality when they speak!" Only then did I find that at the end of the interior of this large shop like a corridor, there was a door. There was a blue cotton curtain on the door. The curtain opened. In an instant, I felt that I wanted to travel through it. What kind of old man was that? No, what kind of old woman is she is wearing the old robe of the 1900 era, wearing a landlord's hat on her head, and holding a one-meter-long tobacco bag pot that seems to be made of old copper in her hand, emitting curling cyan smoke clouds through the faint light.
She coughed, staggered out slowly, and looked up at us!
I saw her face clearly. It was really an old face, just like describing the dilapidated appearance before entering the door, with wrinkles and almost insoluble in this era. Please forgive me for using the ancient word to describe an old man's face, but I really can't find any other adjective.
Dry body, dry and thin hands, and skull-like heads in addition to folds. It seems that the white hairs scattered from the hat can be counted with one hand.
"It's strange. Is it you two in the gossip?" The old lady raised her head, but her eyes were so bright that she couldn't see the meaning of old age.
"Old...er...grandmother?" I was entangled for a moment. I don't know how old the old lady is: "Do you know us?"
"I don't know." The old lady replied happily.
Such a person, who looks deaf, blind and thin, can also carry a one-meter-long cigarette pot made of pure copper. He feels a little illogical, which makes me more vigilant in my heart.
"Whose children are you? What are you doing here so late?" The old lady leaned against the door and half held the cigarette pot and picked up the blue curtain.
"We want to buy something." I said.
"Oh? Shopping? What do you want to buy?" The old lady asked.
I motioned to Ye Yi, and I didn't know what to buy.
Ye Yi, like me, looked at the old man and heard the old man's question. He said, "Four yin and four yang fixed soul fragrance."
"One hundred, one for twelve, only the money is charged." The old man took a look at Ye Yi and said faintly.
I have heard of the soul fragrance, which is famous for its stable combustion, but what is the soul fragrance of the four yin and four yang? I'm confident that I've seen a lot of things, such as evil props, even if I haven't seen the props of the partial door, I should have heard of them. But I really don't know about this four yin and four yang.
"Wait, I'll get it for you." The old lady turned around and went behind the blue cotton curtain.
I asked Ye Yi in a low voice, "Ye Yi, what is the soul fragrance of four yin and four yang? Why haven't I heard of it!"
Ye glanced at the position of the blue curtain and whispered to me, "I also said it casually at the moment. I really didn't expect to hit it."
I frowned and said, "What knocked down?"
"Good luck. Really good luck." Ye Yi couldn't help laughing and said.
"This is a very mysterious and strange sect composed of a group of people. I have always believed in luck. I dare not say that the ability of divination is the best in the world, but the top three are no problem. I'm afraid that even the little fish master's divination skills are not as good as those in this sect. Ye Yi said.
"Awor- great?" I whispered.
"Of course, this school is very interesting. He only believes in fate, and he is recognized as the most trustworthy person in the circle, and also the most unfaithful person. This sect is called Tianji. I want the four yin and four yang to determine the soul fragrance. In fact, it is just a secret word. If you are a person from Tianjimen, you will think that this is fate. I will calculate the people who see them once. Ye Yi explained.
"So divine?" I whispered again like a two hundred and fifty.
"Look, if you really meet the person from Tianjimen, there are also a lot of benefits for our action this time." Ye Yi said seriously.
I sneered and said, "Ye Yi, when did you believe so much?"
"Young man, because you don't know what is the most powerful thing about Tianji Gate." The old lady's unique voice came from behind the curtain.
No matter how I heard that sound, I felt goose bumps all over my body, and I couldn't help shivering.
