Chapter 83 So Sour
After hearing what Sister Dou said, there was a strange silence for a moment, especially Master Li's wife, who was both angry and amused.
She walked directly to Master Li's unconscious body and complained, "I never restricted you from spending money, but you just loved hiding money. It's fine if you hide it, but you only hide a few hundred yuan. In the end, it seems like I'm abusing you. Tell me, when you fell asleep, the sky fell down at home."
After complaining, Master Li's wife said to Sister Dou, "Sister, don't tell Old Li what I just said. I was just venting my anger."
Sister Dou was silent for a long time, and then she said in a very strange tone: "Master Li told me that you should pretend that you don't know about the private money. He has handed over all the money he earned. The Qixi Festival is coming soon, and he wanted to save some money to prepare a surprise for you. This is the money he will use if he doesn't go to the theater to watch operas in the near future, so he got into trouble. He didn't react when he heard the operas being performed here."
Hearing this, everyone showed a very painful expression.
"Ouch, my teeth are sore." someone said.
"What did I do wrong? I just wanted to see Master Xia's craftsmanship. What bad luck!"
"Master Xia, why don't we just not save him yet and fish him out after the Qixi Festival?"
"I've also been enlightened today. It turns out that some masters have such personalities." Du Yun poked Lu Qiu and saw that he took out his phone and looked at the calendar. "What are you looking at?"
"Nothing." Lu Qiu calmly took back his phone.
He was just suddenly curious about when this year's Chinese Valentine's Day would be, and when he looked, he found out that it was on the weekend, and there were only a few days left.
I don’t know whether to say it’s a coincidence or not.
Xia Wange also showed an indescribable expression. She was not afraid of young people showing their affection, but she was afraid of old couples in their fifties showing these things in front of her, and she would not be able to find a way to fight back.
She rubbed her face and tried to make her expression more natural. To be honest, she really wanted to pull the red string and bring Sister Dou's soul back so that Master Li could celebrate the Chinese Valentine's Day over there by himself.
No reason, she just felt it was too sour.
But reason finally took over. Xia Wange took out a red candle and rubbed it repeatedly on the thread on her and Sister Dou's hands, then lit it. The red thread slowly burned, "Okay, Sister Dou, you should be able to see the thread on your wrist. Follow the thread and bring Master Li back."
At this point she added in a low voice, "If Master Li insists on listening to the opera, then I will help you get him out of the underworld again in a few days."
Sister Dou said quickly, "It's no use. He's clinging to me and I can't get rid of him. He's even started chatting with my Xian'er."
"Okay." Xia Wange said with a hint of regret, "Come back."
"Master Xia, may I ask, is this your method of using the red thread to lead the way?" a master in the crowd asked.
"Yes." Xia Wange nodded.
"But Master Xia, this red line can only lead the way for a moment, right? It's used to guide the direction in an emergency. Even if you use wax to slow it down a little, it won't last long. Why can your line keep burning and still be there?"
Xia Wange looked at the eyeliner and said directly without hiding anything: "This is my own idea. Just soak the thread in saturated salt water and dry it, and repeat it many times."
Someone exclaimed: "What kind of metaphysical and Yishu is this? I have read a lot, but I have never seen a master use this trick."
"Oh, this is scientific reasoning." Xia Wange said, "Different wires will be burned, but the melting point of salt is relatively high, about 800℃, so the wires inside are gone, but the salt crystals are still there, so it is equivalent to the wires still being there."
Everyone: “…”
They didn't know what to say for a moment. Those who have been to school are different. They were a little hesitant and wondered whether they should let their apprentices go back to school first.
Not long after, Sister Dou came back. After Xia Wange opened his third eye and discovered that the other party's soul had returned to its place, in order to avoid any sequelae, he also lit a soul-soothing incense stick next to it.
After the incense was lit, there was movement from Master Li's side. Xia Wange asked his wife to push Master Li over to him so that he could rub the soul-soothing incense. Anyway, true love can withstand thousands of obstacles. Master Li has his wife with him, so he just needs to get more sun and rest recently.
Master Li didn't know what Xia Wange was thinking. He just kept thanking her for saving his life. Master Li's wife was also wiping tears and thanking Xia Wange. Then Master Li went to comfort his wife.
Sister Dou said that when she was down there, her daughter Xian'er told her that the suicides caused by this bridge should not be dominated by incident factors. Master Li, who had woken up, also said that he had heard that there was a problem with the bridge the day before, and he had been to this place at the same time in the middle of the night, and there was no problem. But the next day he heard the sound of opera, and he knew nothing after that.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another commotion. His wife then realized that Master Li had sneaked out in the middle of the night. Anyway, after Master Li's soothing words, his wife temporarily calmed down.
Xia Wange couldn't comment on this, maybe this is the interest between husband and wife.
Today's work is half done. Seeing that the problem cannot be solved for the time being, the person in charge of the bridge quickly pulled Xia Wange and said, "Master Xia, Master Xia, even if there is no permanent solution, can there be a way to solve the symptoms? This bridge has been jumping off the bridge every day. Even if I arrange people to patrol it all day, there will be a day of negligence. What if something happens to the patrolmen? This will break several families. Master Xia, can you think of a way to solve it?"
"That's true." Xia Wange touched his chin, looked at Lu Qiu, and blinked at him.
This time Lu Qiu didn't understand the other person's eyes.
While he was dazed, Xia Wange took out a white jade fox paperweight that had been pressed against his chest from her bag and said to him, "Let some blood flow."
"Bleeding?" Lu Qiu was slightly stunned and nodded.
After getting the nod, Xia Wange held up the white jade fox paperweight and said to Lu Qiu seriously: "This time, we need your luck to help the lost people here. Even if they are confused, they will recover quickly with your luck. Even if they can't recover, they won't jump again. Now we need two drops of your blood. Please put them on the eyes of this fox yourself."
"The needle for bloodletting is in the small pocket at the front of my bag. You can get it yourself."
After that, Xia Wange placed her backpack in front of Lu Qiu. Seeing him take out his things and was about to prick his finger, she hurriedly said, "What you think in your heart must be completely voluntary. I am not forcing you. This matter is good for you. You must not have the slightest idea that I have hurt you."
Don't let it be like last time you saw a ghost.
She is the unlucky one.
