Chapter 163: Preventing others from disaster
“No need to thank me. I know very well that you are definitely not a spy.”
After hearing An Jing's thanks, behind the teahouse, in the shadows, an old woman sat behind the counter and smiled: "Xiao Wang, he certainly has no ill intentions towards you, but he has a strong sense of responsibility and can easily be deceived."
"However, I still listen to the old man's advice... If you can, leave as soon as possible. Kanming City is not a blessed place now."
An Jing lowered his eyes. He knew very well the source of Aunt Huai's confidence, which was that the other party saw that he was not a real Chenli person - in this case, he was definitely not a Northern Barbarian spy.
But a Dachen person pretending to be a Chenli person is obviously more suspicious. Why doesn't the other party care?
The identity of this old man is also quite mysterious.
"Anyway."
An Jing repeated: "Thank you for your help. I will pay attention."
"Also, your milk tea tastes really good."
An Jing bowed his hand and bought another salty milk tea. The old lady smiled and served it to him with her own hands.
'Inadvertently', An Jing touched Madam Huai's hand. His expression remained unchanged, but he was slightly shocked.
——No pulse, cold hands?
Is this... the touch of a dead person?
After all, An Jing didn't say anything until the end. After drinking tea, he went straight back to the inn.
Behind him, Huaiji Tea House was embedded in the shadows of the street corner.
The interior of Huaiji Tea Shop.
In the shadows, Aunt Huai returned to the back room.
If the lobby of the tea shop is only dimly lit, then the back room of the tea shop is almost invisible, with no sunlight coming in at all during the day.
But the old lady walked freely in this shadow as if it were daytime.
She opened a secret door, and behind the secret door, a pair of warm, crystal-clear, mysterious golden eyes lit up.
"Little girl, it's okay."
She said softly: "Those people you mentioned who might come after you happened to meet a young man who was very tough and had secrets. He blocked a disaster for you and was almost thrown into jail."
"If he is really caught, with his methods, he should be fine. I'm afraid not many people in Kanming City can stop him."
"In a chaotic situation, all eyes will be focused on him. You will definitely be much safer."
"But in that case, many people might die... I couldn't help but help him out. I hope you don't blame me."
"It's okay, aunt."
And a timid-sounding voice with unexpectedly fluent words sounded: "You will see me as pitiful and help me hide. Naturally, you will also help that young man. This is your character and your 'fate'."
"Besides, the disaster that happened to me is not something that ordinary people can offset. If a passerby can escape the disaster, I feel at ease. I have accumulated some virtue, and I may have some luck."
"What a good girl. I don't know why those people are chasing you."
The old lady sighed and said warmly: "However, my place is not a good place to avoid disaster, and there are many people watching... If I find an opportunity, I have to send you out of the city."
"Hope everything goes well."
"Is it going well...?" The girl with dark golden eyes whispered to herself, and then fell into silence. Aunt Huai also closed the door, sealing everything into shadow.
"That aunt has a destiny."
In the inn, the sword spirit said firmly: "And it is a destiny that has awakened magical powers, at least this is the destiny."
"Living in a place where Feng Shui gathers, and having such a destiny... An Jing, I suspect that you may have blocked disaster for others. The target of that team, at least the initial target, is probably not you. They are just there. Find someone randomly next to the teahouse just to attract the old lady."
"It's just that you are quite good as a target. Those people wanted to kill two birds with one stone, so they chose to take action."
"With my destiny, how can I still prevent disasters for others?"
In the guest room, An Jing, who was drawing a map of Kanming City, raised his eyebrows: "But it is true that Madam Huai is no ordinary person... However, she is not a warrior, let alone a urn holder."
"What kind of background does she have that can actually make those people afraid to take action directly? And looking at Wang Captou's behavior, she is surprisingly senior."
Putting away his pen, An Jing picked up the paper and looked at the schematic diagram of Kanming City that he had drawn.
During the recent period, An Jing memorized all the streets of Kanming City that he walked through in his mind, then erased all the details and recited them on paper with pure lines.
In this way, the structure of the entire city is quite intuitive.
Like all cities in Dachen and even Beixuanjizhou, Kanming City is a city built on the nodes of Feng Shui leylines. Rather, if it is not built on the nodes of leylines, it is not worthy of being called a city. It can only be called a city. It is said to be a larger village built with stones.
There are two sets of civil and military teams in Dachen City. Not counting the big cities in the state capital, there will definitely be a martial arts master at the level of Kanming City, and then there will be an assistant, who is at least as powerful as the [Shanshui Lu] official.
Weiyang Quan died. The local official who was awarded the Shanshui Rui must be guarding the ground node in the center of Kanming City, that is, the official hall.
"With the government as the center, we can get the pattern of four yin and four yang, which is also the pattern of most cities."
An Jing analyzed the feng shui direction of the city based on the map and under the guidance of Sword Spirit: "Military barracks and arsenal. Market gatherings. Long streets along the river. Residential residences. Prisons. Craftsmen's workshops. Pharmacies and clinics. Martial arts schools."
"Huaiji Tea Shop is located at one of the nodes of the Four Yin Patterns... It seems that someone really wants to deal with Mrs. Huai for the nodes."
"I just don't know why I'm dealing with him now. He just happened to bump into me."
After confirming that he might have just bumped into him, An Jing couldn't help complaining: "This destiny is too catalytic. When you go to a certain place, it will cause problems to explode in a certain place?"
Regarding An Jing's doubts, Sword Spirit was quite calm: "Let's not talk about the recent period. The city lord left, the devil appeared, and all the forces were in turmoil... Even if it is really because of you, don't feel weird. "
"Destiny is entangled in causes and conditions. Their potential is like magnetism, attracting each other."
"Destiny holders will involuntarily meet other fate holders, and their lives will never be peaceful."
"But on the other hand, people who want a peaceful life, who just want to live a stable life without seeking progress, will never be able to awaken their destiny."
"Of course, even just wanting to cook better is considered progress, but such people will also be involved in disputes like the 'God of Cooking Competition'... In short, given your destiny, , let alone a catalyst, it’s not surprising that you explode wherever you go.”
"besides……"
Sword Spirit raised his tone with a hint of ridicule: "Isn't this what you want?"
"indeed."
And An Jing also smiled. He was indeed interested in the secret behind all this at this moment: "I would like to see what kind of medicine these people are selling in the gourd."
