Chapter 3
As soon as Bai Siyu said this, the young man's expression changed obviously.
But the next second he became furious.
"Where the hell did you come from, you pretty boy, to spit blood on me?!"
He looked at the aunt and her husband again.
"It's fine if you don't allow me to be with Xiao Meng, and it's fine if you don't recognize my efforts, but what's the point of finding someone to slander me! You beat someone in broad daylight and slandered me. I want to call the police!"
Sun Meng's mind shook. She didn't know why she felt that Zhao Chen, who used to be so handsome in her eyes, suddenly became much uglier. But she didn't think much about it. In her excitement, she shook off her mother's hand and ran towards the man.
"Brother Chen, don't call the police, let's leave quickly!"
If Chen Ge and her wallet had not been stolen the day before yesterday, they would not have been able to buy tickets to return to Chen Ge's hometown and would have had to find a temporary job to earn some money. Now that they were discovered, Sun Meng felt that God was really blind and had to punish them for their mistakes.
But I didn't expect that the smiling, overly good-looking boy who had been standing nearby suddenly spoke.
"No, you still have to call the police."
As he spoke, he walked leisurely in front of the man.
"Your parents divorced when you were twelve, but neither of them wanted you. You dropped out of school at fourteen to work, and had a child when you were just an adult. After you got married at twenty, you went to jail and spent five years in prison. You must have found some connections in jail, and when you got out you found a way to make a lot of money. You've only been doing this for less than a year, and you've already made a lot, right?"
"You...you...I don't understand what you are saying." The man's expression changed obviously, and even showed a hint of fear. How could this child who hasn't even grown all his hair know so much about him? !
"Don't worry, brother, how could you not understand? This is a good idea, but the supply is a big problem, right?" Bai Siyu glanced at Sun Meng next to the man, then smiled and waved the phone in his hand, "I've called the police."
“Bang——”
The scene suddenly changed in the next second!
The man who had been saying he was going to call the police actually pushed away Sun Meng who was holding him, threw her to the ground, and ran away.
Before anyone could react, Bai Siyu grabbed the broom from the cleaning lady passing by and threw it at the back of the man's head!
"Everyone help, catch him! He is a human trafficker!"
*
When Sun Meng sat in the police station, she was still in a dream.
She took three rounds of statements and couldn't believe that the man she was desperate to marry was actually a human trafficker. He said he wanted to take her back to his hometown just to sell her, and he had actually sold three girls two months ago!
The aunt and her husband were crying and cursing. If the police hadn't been there, the man's face and neck would have been scratched by the aunt until they were bleeding.
"I'm so sorry for you, child. If it weren't for you, I would have really died..." The aunt had only thought that her daughter might have run away with the wrong man, but she never thought that she would be sold. If her daughter was really sold to the mountains, she really didn't dare to think about whether she could survive.
The aunt grabbed Bai Siyu's hand and expressed her gratitude, her tears almost soaking Bai Siyu's hand.
Bai Siyu, who had already finished taking notes and was about to leave, simply said, "Auntie, it was just a coincidence."
When he was taking the statement just now, he said that he happened to meet those two people on that street, and he felt that the girl among the two looked like his aunt, and he said that the man was a human trafficker who was deceiving him. After all, he really said that he could tell fortunes, so he might not be able to "get out" so easily.
"I understand, I understand, Auntie understands everything."
But the aunt gave Bai Siyu a knowing look.
The real charlatan at the morning market was so scared by aunt's brother that he returned the money long ago. The 8,800 yuan was in the hands of aunt's brother. As soon as they left the police station, aunt took the money from the brother with her left hand and gave it to Bai Siyu with her right hand.
"Child...Oh no, little fortune teller, auntie really thanks you, you must accept it."
"It's not necessary, Auntie."
Bai Siyu stared at the thick stack of banknotes, but only took out ten red hundred-dollar bills.
Nine big red bills are enough to form a formation to keep him safe. The great power on them, combined with talismans, seals, spells, etc., are more useful than some magical tools. Of course, the prerequisite is that one must know how to use them. There are relatively few people like him who have a photographic memory and are extremely talented in integrating all knowledge of the Tao.
The remaining 100 yuan is enough for food and drink; he doesn't need to have any money on him now.
"How can that be possible? One thousand is not enough. Auntie, I see you don't even have a cell phone. The cell phone you used to call the police was borrowed from a passerby, right? If you use this money to buy a cell phone, there won't be much left."
The aunt was extremely sincere and expressed her gratitude with all her heart. She held onto Bai Siyu's hand tightly and pushed it in with all her might.
Bai Siyu's expression looked a little painful and a little pitiful.
It wasn't because he was being pulled by his aunt, but because he actually loved small money, and he wasn't pretending to be noble!
It is pitiful enough to let go of something with great pain, but you have to let go of it again and again!
He will be eighteen in one month. By then, the evil life-changing spell will be completely completed and the curse will be revealed. Now the evil life-changing spell has reached its advanced stage. His fate is already shabby and extremely bad. It is already a struggle for him to carry out his daily activities smoothly.
If you carry valuables and possessions that you cannot afford, you will probably die faster and be prone to bad luck!
"I really can't have it, Auntie..."
"You can't refuse it, Auntie is giving it to you sincerely, you must accept it!"
A tug-of-war started between the two, and even the aunt's husband and younger brother joined in, feeling guilty for having looked at the boy in front of them with prejudice.
"Take it, little fairy, you are our benefactor."
"Yes, yes, yes, take it. We were blind to its true potential before..."
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Bai Siyu was silent for two seconds and simply took advantage of the situation.
"How about this, Auntie? I just don't have a place to live. Can you help me find a house to rent in Shikou, Xijiao? Just rent it for a month. I don't want a nice house. The more ordinary... even the more shabby the better, because this is what I need for my practice."
"Ah, then..." The aunt had originally thought about renting a good house for him after hearing the first part, but her face twisted involuntarily after hearing the second part, "Don't lie to me, auntie."
It doesn’t say that one must live in the shabbiest house to practice cultivation.
"Auntie, I really didn't lie to you. How dare I tell a lie about this kind of spiritual practice? The Heavenly Dao is listening."
Bai Siyu's words were so clear that no matter how confused the aunt was, she had no choice but to believe them.
Because Bai Siyu didn't have a cell phone, they agreed to meet at the door of the soy milk shop in the morning market at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, and Bai Siyu left quickly.
He cannot leave the capital city now - as long as the evil life-changing spell is not eliminated, he cannot leave the Qin family too far, otherwise it will easily trigger the evil spell to be passively activated and his whereabouts will be easily exposed. Secondly, there is a subconscious feeling telling him that there is still a glimmer of hope in the capital city.
He couldn't just walk away.
Bai Siyu got on the bus in front of the police station. In order to collect more information about the market, he chatted with the uncles and aunts on the bus for nearly half an hour. He discovered that the largest market in Beijing was located in the western suburbs.
Although the western suburbs are poor, with few high-rise buildings and no bright lights and nightlife, there are many people and a mixed crowd. The large markets sell a much wider variety of goods than those shopping malls.
Bai Siyu immediately changed his destination, got off the bus and got on again. An hour later, he arrived at the crowded Xijiao Market. He spent a full three and a half hours shopping there. Not only did he buy a small bottle of top-quality cinnabar, but he also bought stacks of yellow paper, brushes, hemp ropes and other items... He even bought a stained and worn jujube wood door sill from an old man, which he estimated was taken down from an old house in the countryside.
The price was not expensive, only costing over a hundred dollars in total.
There were exactly nine big red bills left in my pocket, plus nineteen coins in change.
"Oh, I should have left one more with Auntie."
Bai Siyu was holding the jujube wood door sill as he passed a stall where a lot of clothes were piled up. He remembered that he seemed to have no change of clothes yet.
He felt the coins in his pocket and looked at the sign on the stall that said the starting price was 15 yuan per piece. He finally couldn't help but stop and picked out the old man's sweatshirt that looked the cheapest.
"Hey, you are such a handsome kid, why are you holding that old man's vest?"
The stall owner was sorting the goods with her back to Bai Siyu. When she turned around, she saw a young man with a very good-looking face who had picked out the cheapest and shabbyest white sweatshirt in the whole stall. She quickly dropped the goods in her hands and walked over, and also picked up an expensive pink floral shirt for men that couldn't be sold and gestured to Bai Siyu.
"Look at this shirt, it's so pretty, it's suitable for a child of your age! I've been selling clothes for so many years, but I've never seen a child as handsome as you. Look at your skin, it's so white, this pink color is perfect for you, people with darker skin can't wear it!"
Before Bai Siyu could even say a word of refusal, she was dragged in front of a mirror by her elder sister.
"Don't you see? This dress looks really good on you. Big sister never lies."
When Bai Siyu saw the person in the mirror, he was stunned for a moment and his pupils shrank.
Wait, this face in front of me...
How come it looks exactly like my original face? ! !
He subconsciously raised his left hand. A small peach-shaped mole on the middle finger of his left hand was quietly lying in the center of the white finger groove. At this moment, it seemed to be on fire, burning straight into Bai Siyu's eyes.
Bai Siyu's brain completely exploded.
What the hell is going on? This is clearly his body, this is his body!
"What the elder sister said is right, this shirt looks absolutely amazing on you. You look better in it than the stars on TV!" The elder sister next to her was still chattering, trying the clothes on Bai Siyu. Seeing the shocked expression on the boy's face, she thought he didn't like this style, so she picked up another blue shirt that was equally expensive but not as patterned and tried it on Bai Siyu.
"This one is also good. Which one do you like? They are all sold out anyway!"
"Mom, come and have dinner."
The eldest sister's son just came back with a box of spicy chicken racks and a bag of steamed buns. When he heard what his mother said, he thought his mother was fooling the customers again, and his ears felt a little hot.
Little did she know that this time the elder sister's conscience was truly evident to all, and every word she praised came from her heart. This young man was truly the best-looking one she had ever seen in all the years she had been selling clothes.
"I'm not hungry yet. You eat first." The eldest sister didn't even turn her head and continued to sell. The eldest sister's son sat down on the pony stool and couldn't help but glance at his mother's hand.
Suddenly, a look of dismay appeared on his face.
That pink floral shirt is definitely Barbie pink, whoever wears it will be in disaster, and it’s for men, no one will buy it. Didn’t his mother say that it hadn’t been sold for so long and was going to be donated? Why is it being taken out again!
Looking at the back of the person being sold, he seems to be about the same age as me. He is obviously a minor. How could his mother deceive a student?
The eldest sister's son bit the steamed bun, and the more he bit, the more he felt guilty. Finally, he couldn't help it, and stood up suddenly and walked towards the mirror: "Actually, I think this dress..."
"!"
The eldest sister's son didn't finish his words as he stared at the figure in the mirror.
The boy in front of me had a pair of dark, sparkling pupils that looked like the deep sky filled with stars, and were obviously larger than those of ordinary people. His eyes were shaped like a fox's but rounder, making them look a little more perverse in their charm. At this moment, his eyes were slightly wide open in surprise, making him look particularly innocent and green. There was a small light-colored mole on the right side of his tall nose. The golden sunlight slanted down, and the shadow of his thick and long eyelashes just fell on the small mole.
It was so beautiful that he was stunned.
Is this person wearing makeup? ! ! !
But can makeup be applied like this?
"Go eat your meal. Don't you have to go to school after that?!" The elder sister waved a few times, thinking that her son was going to interfere with her sales again. However, she didn't expect that her son just stood there stupidly for a few seconds, then suddenly turned around and ran away.
The elder sister turned around and continued to sell with a smile: "Which one do you want? I'll pack it for you! How about giving you a pair of socks as well?"
Bai Siyu finally came back to his senses. He looked at himself in the mirror, the shock in his eyes narrowed, and was replaced by a vague look.
This is your body, but not entirely.
He is already in his twenties, but this body clearly looks like a teenager in his teens, with a little baby fat still on his cheeks, just like himself six or seven years ago.
Could it be that Qin Siyu is him from a parallel world? !
"Sister, the money I brought today is not enough. I'll come back to buy more tomorrow." Bai Siyu couldn't wait to deduce the hexagram and prepared to leave.
But the eldest sister held him back and wouldn't let him leave.
"Hey, don't worry, I'll give you a discount!"
Bai Siyu was about to say something else when the boy who had just run away and was sitting on the pony with his back to Bai Siyu suddenly stood up, walked over with a red face and grabbed his mother's sleeve: "Mom, they said they would come again tomorrow."
Bai Siyu then looked directly at the boy in school uniform in front of him, and his eyes paused slightly.
While the boy was grabbing his mother, Bai Siyu left quickly. But before leaving, she said calmly, "Take a different route home tonight to avoid disaster."
The eldest sister was already feeling annoyed, and she became even angrier when she heard these words. If her son hadn't been holding her back, she would have almost rushed out of the stall.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you cursing my son?! Not only did you not buy him clothes, but you also farted!"
"Mom, what are you doing? I didn't say anything bad." The eldest sister's son's face turned even redder, and he was anxious.
At the same time, he also noticed that the tall and thin figure like Xiao Baiyang seemed to be holding a bag of yellow paper and cinnabar or something in his hand.
"Mom, look at those things in his hands. They seem to be used for fortune-telling. Does he know how to tell fortunes? Maybe he is really trying to save me?"
"I'm not going to save you, I've seen a lot of these charlatans over the years, I've seen more than ten of them on this street alone, this brat hasn't even grown all his hair yet and he's already cheating people, he's definitely not a good person!"
The older sister became angrier the more she thought about it.
Although this boy is extremely good-looking, to be honest, her first impression of him is not good. Anyway, she just feels uncomfortable and a little uneasy when she sees him. He is not like some people who look likable at first sight.
For example, the new spokesperson for Xihaha mineral water seems to be called Qin or Qin Zhi?
He is good-looking and extremely likable, making people feel comfortable just by looking at him. There is almost no one on this street, young or old, male or female, who doesn't like Qin Zhi!
I’m afraid that poor guy just now will never be able to catch up with others in his lifetime!
