Chapter 494: The Crippled Weird Man
Just as Tu Ran was hesitating whether to let them in, a young man pushed Tu Ran's way and walked in.
“Hey…you…”
"He's really a rich man, his house is really nice."
The man who came in said this very presumptuously, and Tu Ran frowned.
She couldn't imagine that a pretentious man like Nie Xiu would use someone with such a lack of sense of boundaries?
If Xiaojie hadn't come with her, she would never have let him in today.
The man who came in looked to be in his forties, his skin darkened by long-term sun exposure.
He looks ordinary, nothing special except that his eyebrows are particularly thick and black.
However, after the man took a few more steps, Tu Ran's eyes fell on the man's feet.
A cripple?
To be precise, it is a slope.
"Just call me Lame Five." The man suddenly spoke.
This name... Tu Ran didn't dare to call it, it seemed a bit presumptuous. Although she didn't like the person in front of her, she would not laugh at other people's shortcomings.
"Is there any water?" he asked Tu Ran.
"have."
"Get me a bottle, I'm thirsty."
"good."
Tu Ran turned around and went to the refrigerator, took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it over.
"Any cigarettes?"
"No."
"Nonsense, the owner of this house obviously smokes." said the man.
"I don't smoke, I don't know where the cigarettes are."
"The third drawer under the desk in the study is actually filled with lotus flowers. Tsk tsk."
Tu Ran: ...
"Why are you looking at me like an idiot? Go get it."
Tu Ran was shocked. She didn't even know where the cigarettes were placed, so how could this outsider know?
But out of politeness, she did not refuse.
According to Lame Five, cigarettes were found under the desk in Xie Nancheng's study.
The man took a puff of his cigarette and then sat on the sofa, looking very casual.
Seeing that Tu Ran was somewhat dissatisfied, Xiao Jie quickly stepped forward and explained in a low voice.
"Doctor Tu, this gentleman is my master's distinguished guest. It's not easy to invite him here. I'm afraid no one else in the world can invite him except my master. His personality is indeed a bit strange, but he will definitely cure your illness."
"A man from the Ninth Bureau?" Tu Ran knew that there must be something extraordinary behind this ordinary man.
Otherwise, Nie Xiu wouldn't look at me differently.
"Those old monsters in the Ninth Bureau are nothing. I won't go even if they invite me." Lame Five heard their conversation and spoke in an arrogant tone.
Tu Ran was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to say anything.
After finishing a cigarette, the man seemed a little sleepy and leaned lazily on the sofa.
"Who asked you to violate the rules?" He looked at Tu Ran and spoke.
"What?"
"Don't pretend, you know what I'm asking? You shouldn't do this."
"I..." Tu Ran knew it for sure, so he felt guilty.
She subconsciously glanced at Xiaojie, who quickly made an excuse, "I'll go down and move the car, you guys chat."
After Xiaojie left, Tu Ran slowly spoke, "I was forced by the situation at the time. I had no choice."
"Bullshit." The man cursed.
"Don't say that your affairs are nothing at all. Even if someone died, what does it have to do with you? They have their own karma. Who the hell are you to interfere?"
"I..." Tu Ran clearly wanted to retort, but for some reason, he just couldn't say it.
"What do you mean, you little stinky girl."
"Rash."
"You have some talent, it's a gift from God to you, but you don't know how to hide it well, and actually use it to deal with some random people. I look down on you."
Tu Ran was confused by his scolding and even blushed. You know, even Xie Nancheng wouldn't dare to talk like that, right?
"This is Mr. Wu."
"I wasn't the one who invited you here."
"You don't have to vent your anger on me."
"I didn't ask you to cure me."
"You can definitely leave now. You don't have to continue."
Tu Ran's meaning was very clear, he wanted to drive this person away.
Unexpectedly, Lame Five ignored him completely.
"Do you know how difficult it is to cultivate Xiantian Yiqi?"
"How many people have spent their entire lives dreaming of something, and you're squandering it like this, you're crazy."
"I do." Tu Ran's face turned cold.
"Forget it. I don't want to argue with you youngsters. Sit down."
The man's commanding tone made Tu Ran very uncomfortable.
But she still sat down obediently.
The man casually took out a piece of paper from his pocket. It was neither yellow nor red.
It is the kind of cigarette paper used by the older generation in the mountain village.
Then, I saw his fingers dancing quickly and drawing randomly on it.
What he said was incomprehensible and I couldn't understand a word. It didn't sound like human language at all.
A few seconds later...
He opened his eyes and handed the white paper to Tu Ran.
"I won't eat it." Tu Ran was determined.
Even if this thing can really cure the disease, she doesn't want to swallow paper and can't accept it.
"You're crazy, did I tell you to swallow it?"
Tu Ran: ...
"He's not tall, but he has a lot of imagination."
Tu Ran: ...
"Take it. After I leave, light it and burn it."
"Remember not to use lighters and gas."
"Those are Yin Fires."
"Use matches, wooden matches."
"What happens after it burns?" Tu Ran wondered.
"You'll be fine after the burn, so why are you asking? I'm leaving now."
After saying that, the man stood up and walked outside.
"Is this the end?" Tu Ran was stunned.
"What else? What else do you want? A set of acupuncture? A few magic pills?"
Tu Ran: ...
"I really don't care about you guys."
"If I didn't owe that kid a favor, I would never come here even if I were beaten to death."
"By the way, you can't mobilize any energy for three months."
"Otherwise, your internal organs will be damaged, and even gods won't be able to save you."
"Stop showing off, you hear me?"
"If you want to die, just kill yourself, not this way."
"Humph, I hate people like you who take advantage of your talents and act recklessly, especially women who don't know their place."
Tu Ran: ...
"What does this have to do with women?" Tu Ran was so angry. Why was there a confrontation between men and women?
"Because my master said that beautiful women are willing to seek death, and you are no exception."
"Treasure your life. Not many people in this world have the chance to obtain my talisman."
"Leave."
The man waved his hand and seemed to be limping, but he disappeared from sight very quickly.
Tu Ran was holding the white paper, still in a daze.
There is indeed nothing visible on this white paper with the naked eye.
But when Tu Ran held it in his hand, he could faintly feel a surge of energy.
This man doesn't look very old, why is he so scary?
He knew where things were placed in her house and knew that Tu Ran had innate Qi.
He didn't even feel her pulse or ask for her fortune.
He doesn't look like a Taoist priest...
Because he was dressed very casually, just a pair of worn gray trousers and an old sweatshirt.
But, what he just drew seemed to be another talisman?
What is the origin of this guy?
Can Nie Xiu be invited to treat her?
Forget it.
Tu Ran is not an ungrateful person. She really needs to recover quickly.
Because she has many enemies.
The Xie family also has a lot of things to do.
After the man left, Tu Ran found a box of wooden matches that he had collected before.
In the tea room, he quietly lit the inconspicuous little piece of white paper.
In an instant, I felt a ball of white light appear before my eyes...
