Chapter 114 Modern Supernatural 18
Dark clouds gathered, and the smoky gray sky was gloomy. Endless waves rolled in it, pressing heavily on people's heads, making it hard to breathe.
Mu Guishuang stood by the window and opened it.
The fishy, salty and humid air rushed into his nose along with the breeze.
Raising his head slightly to face this gloomy land, Mu Guishuang frowned.
He hated such weather.
Such a gloomy and gray scenery always reminded him of those bad memories.
His chest felt heavy as if a huge stone was pressing on it. He exhaled lightly, along his jaw, and his fingertips went all the way to between his eyebrows.
His slender index finger gently hooked the white silk covering his eyes.
He suddenly wanted to take a look with this eye.
With force from the fingertips, the thin layer of satin was pulled down, as if the white curtain covering the world was lifted. Everything became as clear as a microscope.
The dark red eye seemed to be covered with a layer of dust in the dim light, but it could not hide its dazzling luster. It was like the finest agate jade, shining brightly.
Blinking, although the light was not strong, the left eye that had not seen the light for a long time still had difficulty adapting to the dim light.
A sour and swollen feeling spread over the eyeball.
Physiological tears overflowed from the eye socket, moistened the eye, and a layer of crystal floated up.
A wind blew past from nowhere.
For a moment, the air was distorted a little, like the marks left after being burned by a scorching flame.
The gentle wind brushed across Mu Guishuang's face like an invisible hand.
It was like wiping away the dust on the surface of a dusty pearl.
"...Shi Heng."
The sigh dissipated in the air.
"Why don't you dare to come see me?"
*
"Brother, why do I feel that those people are more capable of causing trouble than ghosts?"
Zhou Zhile walked on the road with sleepy eyes, with a messy head of hair like a chicken's nest.
Because Nan Rui suddenly broke into Zhou Zhile's room and pulled him off the bed, he didn't even have time to tidy up his hair.
"For those of us in this line of work, we have to be wary of more than just ghosts."
Nan Rui pulled the corner of his mouth, smiling.
Who would have thought that the ghosts hadn't caused trouble for him yet, but that group of people had caused trouble.
"There is news that a group of people in Jiulin City have been causing trouble recently, using ghosts and evil spirits to get money to do things, and provoking the Tianshi Association."
"The master has not been at the main house these days, so for the time being, it's just the two of us and the junior master uncle who will go to find out what's going on."
"Then where's the junior master uncle?"
Zhou Zhile looked around, but didn't see Mu Guishuang.
"The junior master uncle has already arrived in Jiulin." Nan Rui quickened his pace:
"Why else do you think I pulled you out of bed so early? We can't let the junior master uncle wait for us so long."
"Oh, oh, oh, then let's go quickly, we can't let the junior master uncle wait for us too long."
Zhou Zhile nodded, patted his cheeks, dispelled the sleepiness, and hurried on his way.
As for Mu Guishuang, he casually walked into a coffee shop and was surrounded by countless eyes.
Perhaps they were female classmates who were out playing on the weekend. A group of them sat not far from Mu Guishuang and huddled together to whisper.
"Ahhhhh, he's looking over here! So handsome!"
"Do you think we can go up and ask for his VX? I really want to get to know him!"
"Is this handsome guy cosplaying as a blind Taoist priest in a novel? Just look at his face. I really want to ask for his social media account."
"No way, he must really be blind?"
"How can he walk so smoothly if he really can't see? Just now, he came in and perfectly avoided the tables and chairs in front of him."
"Shhh - keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear it, it's embarrassing."
In fact, he had already heard it.
Who in the profession of heavenly master doesn't have
sharp ears and sharp eyes. Although he couldn't see because of his blindfold, his hearing was still very sharp.
Mu Guishuang tilted his head slightly, letting the lush green plants at his hand slightly block his face.
A young man in a Chinese black Tang suit sat quietly on the sofa, with a noble temperament and an upright figure.
Although his eyes were covered, his facial features, whether it was his nose, mouth or face shape, all showed his extremely outstanding appearance.
A ray of sunlight passed through the transparent glass window and fell on his body, coating him with a layer of golden light, like a compassionate god.
"Uh... Hello, can I add you on VX?"
A girl was pushed and shoved by her sisters, and finally plucked up the courage to move to Mu Guishuang's side, looking back every few steps.
Mu Guishuang was silent.
He spent most of his time learning spells and studying magic, and the rest of his time was spent in the old Mu family house in Wenshan.
The few times he went out, most of them were to go to remote and spooky haunted places to deal with evil ghosts.
He had almost no experience of being approached by others.
So Mu Guishuang, who had zero experience, froze in his seat.
If the person in front of him was a zombie ghost, Mu Guishuang could just stick a yellow talisman on it and then leave without mercy.
But the person in front of him now was a slightly shy woman, and in Mu Guishuang's memory, he had no experience to draw on for the time being.
Just as Mu Guishuang was racking his brains for how to tactfully reject others, a hand gently tapped on the glass window beside him.
Mu Guishuang looked in the direction of the voice -
through the glass window, through the blindfold of white silk, a familiar face fell into her eyes.
"Ah Heng..."
The voice was almost squeezed out of her throat.
With a smile on his lips, Shi Heng was wearing a black windbreaker. He placed one hand on the glass window and wiped off the dust on it. As if breaking through many obstacles, he stared straight into those eyes, his lips opening and closing:
"I'm here to see you."
"Ziyun."
*
"Excuse me, ma'am."
Shi Heng sat next to Mu Guishuang, wearing sunglasses that covered most of his face, with the corners of his mouth raised upwards:
"He already has a partner."
"Ah? Oh... Sorry, I'm bothering you... I didn't know..."
The girl was stunned for a few seconds, her eyes wandering between Mu Guishuang and Shi Heng, her face reddened even more, and she apologized quickly.
"It's okay, I thank you for your love on his behalf."
Shi Heng stretched out his long arm, put it on Mu Guishuang's shoulder, and half-embraced the young man in front of him.
As soon as the girl left, Shi Heng immediately retracted his hand from Mu Guishuang and took off his sunglasses pitifully:
"Ziyun, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Mu Guishuang didn't know what he was apologizing for.
Both of Shi Heng's eyes are black, and his eye sockets are deep, which makes his eyes look like a deep pool, with no bottom to be seen.
Feeling Mu Guishuang's doubtful gaze, Shi Heng blinked his right eye:
"Red is too conspicuous, so I hid it."
"Why did you..."
Mu Guishuang naturally asked the question with a doubt in her heart.
"Junior Master--"
Mu Guishuang turned her head to the side, and in the blink of an eye, the people around her disappeared.
"Junior Master, you are here!"
Nan Rui pulled Zhou Zhile and trotted to Mu Guishuang's side.
"My junior apprentice brother and I have been looking for you for a while, and we were almost going to use tracking skills to find you."
"Wait a minute..." Zhou Zhile rubbed his eyes:
"Was there someone next to the junior apprentice brother just now? I seemed to see a dark shadow."
"No."
Nan Rui touched the cushion on the seat next to Mu Guishuang and denied Zhou Zhile:
"If someone was sitting here, the cushion should be a little warm."
"Did you run too fast and get dazzled?"
"But I seem to have really seen it..."
"No." Mu Guishuang stared at the empty seat next to him:
"I have always been sitting here alone."
