The next day, because the meeting with the Cheng Family was scheduled for the afternoon, the schedule in the morning was unexpectedly relaxed.
Huo Sili put down his phone and looked at the internet-addicted boy who came to him early in the morning to play games. "You have nothing to do this morning, do you want to go out for a walk?"
He paused and added, "By the way, give Special Assistant Hao a half-day holiday."
Qu Nanzhu raised his eyes from the phone screen and nodded without any objection. "Okay."
H City The temperature is low, and there is a damp chill in the air.
Qu Nanzhu looked through his luggage and found that he didn't bring a thick coat at all.
So he silently put on the hood of the gray sweatshirt he was wearing, and added a slightly thicker black hooded sweatshirt to the outside.
As for Huo Sili, there is no casual wear option in his luggage at all. He still wears a perfectly tailored dark suit with a high-quality cashmere long coat.
With a tall and straight posture and a calm aura, he is incompatible with the casual atmosphere around him and is particularly eye-catching.
The two of them went out formally and casually.
Walking on the distinctive commercial street of H City, this contrasting combination will immediately turn heads.
Pedestrians' eyes will first be attracted by Huo Sili's elite aura and handsome appearance that cannot be ignored, and then they will fall on his companion next to him who is wearing two layers of sweatshirts and looks particularly young.
However, something strange happened.
When people wanted to take a closer look at the young man's appearance, their eyes would always slide away unconsciously.
I could clearly see the delicate outline and the smart eyes, but as soon as I turned my head, the impression of his specific appearance in my mind became blurred, leaving only a good-looking general concept.
This weird feeling of forgetting after seeing something prompts people to subconsciously look back again to confirm what they just saw.
As a result, a scene like this appeared on the street - people kept passing by this pair, but they couldn't help but look back frequently, with a trace of confusion and inquiry on their faces.
The return rate is 200%.
Qu Nanzhu seems unaware of all this, or in other words has long been used to it.
He was attracted by a steaming snack bar on the roadside, and tugged on Huo Sili's coat cuffs. "That one looks good."
Huo Sili lowered his head and looked at his appearance, wrapped in two layers of hats, with only half of his face exposed, and then glanced at the passers-by around him who kept looking back, with a helpless and conniving smile flashing in his eyes.
"Well," he responded, protecting Qu Nanzhu from the crowd and walking towards the small shop, "Let's go and have a look."
Qu Nanzhu also bought a very ugly ghost doll and stuffed it into the pocket of Huo Sili's coat. Inside was Little Eighteen.
Huo Sili acquiesced to the behavior of the two little guys playing in his pocket, looking straight ahead, preparing to find some special food to feed.
Suddenly, the crowded crowd became restless.
Huo Sili responded quickly and his arms were steady and strong, firmly protecting Qu Nanzhu in his arms and isolating most of the pushing from around him.
Qu Nanzhu was very calm, leaning against him, with only a little line of sight peeking out from between the gaps in his arms, his smart eyes spinning around, observing the restless crowd.
"What's wrong?" His voice was muffled in Huo Sili's coat.
"I don't know, don't move yet." Huo Sili lowered his head, his chin almost touched his forehead, and his voice was very low.
At this moment, the crowd's comments came clearly.
"Is it really that Master? I heard that the calculation is very accurate!"
"Yes, that's right! In the square in front, free fortune telling, and a consecrated peace charm will also be given!"
"Hurry, hurry! If you go late, you won't be able to get in line!"
Hearing the key words "Master", "fortune telling" and "safe charm", Qu Nanzhu, who was being protected in his arms, and Huo Sili, who was looking around cautiously, stopped at the same time.
Their eyes met in the air.
Huo Sili had a questioning look in his eyes, while Qu Nanzhu blinked, with a hint of cunning and curiosity flashing in his eyes.
No words are needed, a tacit understanding is reached in an instant.
Huo Sili's tight arms relaxed slightly, but they still half-circled Qu Nanzhu in a protective posture.
Qu Nanzhu took advantage of the situation and adjusted his posture. He no longer tried to squeeze out, but moved in the direction of the crowd without leaving any trace.
Huo Sili matched his rhythm, and the two of them were like two drops of water, naturally integrated into the torrent rushing towards Master, and were carried forward.
The two of them squirmed along with the crowd for a few minutes, and then stopped moving completely.
Qu Nanzhu couldn't see what was going on inside, so he tapped the shoulder of the girl standing in front of him and asked her.
When the girl turned around, she was immediately fascinated by Qu Nanzhu's cute face. She lowered her voice and asked, "What's wrong, little brother?"
Little brother??
Qu Nanzhu had a dark face and secretly elbowed the snickering Huo Sili.
"Who is Master inside?"
As soon as the girl heard this question, her words immediately flowed into the sky.
"Look at this!" She pulled out her phone and clicked on the home page of a Satoshi account, "He is the fortune teller Master who is very popular recently! Of course, he is not as popular as our God Qu, but he is also very good. He tells fortunes for many people in the live broadcast room, and he is very accurate! The most important thing is that his fees are very low! Of course, I am not saying that God Qu charges high fees."
"He is now telling fortunes to passers-by for free! He also gives away a peace charm for free! Oh my god, if I go to the temple to ask for it, I won't be able to ask for it! I hope I can be in line later!"
The girl's excited appearance attracted chatter from the people next to her.
"Miss, are you also a fan of Master Cui!?"
"Just force it, force it, I mainly watch Candlelight, but God Qu's live broadcast time is getting shorter and shorter now, so I will also watch other things."
"Me too, me too. There is no way God Qu needs more rest recently. Fans should be more considerate of him."
Qu Nanzhu, who needed more rest, intervened in the conversation between the two, and he was somewhat speechless.
Qu Nanzhu: "Since you two are both fans of God Qu, don't you know that fortune telling requires fortune telling?"
Free fortune telling?
When this person Heavenly Dao is reincarnated!
Hearing what he said, the two girls looked at each other and said "Hey?" and asked in unison, "Is that so? I just became a fan of God Qu later, and I never heard him say..."
"Little brother, have you remembered wrongly? It's a good thing to tell people's fortunes for free, why do you have to charge money?"
"Yeah, it's just like other people's free clinics, it's free of charge."
Qu Nanzhu:"..."
Seeing Qu Nanzhu being silenced by two "fans" and black energy starting to appear all over his body, Huo Sili could hardly hide the smile in his eyes.
He put his fist to his lips, coughed slightly, and intervened at the right time. His voice was calm and had a convincing aura:
"This little... friend is right." He paused subtly and felt another warning bump on his elbow before continuing, "In the field of metaphysics, there is indeed a rule of 'no hexagrams are left empty'. Collecting hexagram gold is not for profit, but a kind of 'karma settlement' to avoid unnecessary karmic entanglements between the caster and the tester, and it is also a kind of protection for both parties."
His tone was calm and his words were chosen carefully. The two girls looked at Huo Sili and felt that this man's demeanor made people unconsciously want to believe his words.
"Ah... is that so?"
"It seems... it makes sense? I think some Daoist temples seem to have to rejoice when they perform rituals for people..."
While the two girls were lost in thought, Huo Sili gently held Qu Nanzhu's shoulders and motioned for him to follow her.
"Let's go." He whispered.
Qu Nanzhu While being led out by him, he couldn't help but look back. Thinking of what he just said, he suddenly laughed out loud, "Ha!"
The crowd was still crowded, and Huo Sili relied on his height and strength to walk through it, but he did not forget to remind Qu Nanzhu: "Follow closely, little brother."
Qu Nanzhu suddenly raised his head and stared at the back of his head, his eyes filled with murderous intent. "Huo, Si, Li!"
Huo Sili's deep laughter came from the front.
