Page Boy’s Yin & Yang Road - C119
As I looked at Wu Ji’s back, I kept on having the feeling that even though Wu Ji was very close and was standing right next to you, you would never be able to catch him.
When I woke up the next morning, I discovered that Wu Ji had actually made breakfast himself. It was simple rice porridge and light cold mixed dishes, but they looked extremely tasty.
I asked in astonishment, “You did this?”
Wu Ji nodded, showing indifference. “What?”
“No, I was just surprised that you cooked.” I sat down and took a bite of the side dish, refreshing and delicious.
“In my early years, I lived on the mountain with Master, and I had to do everything I wanted. Master only had me as a disciple, so naturally, I was the one who arranged the daily necessities.”
This is the first time I’ve heard him take the initiative to talk about his private affairs. However, after hearing this, he didn’t know how to respond.
When I was young, I often lived at the Eldest Aunt’s House, so I could be considered half a rural child. Dongkanzi Village wasn’t very rich, nor was it developed, and it couldn’t compare to the living conditions of the city, but no matter what, I usually need the care of a big sister and didn’t suffer much, so it’s hard to imagine what Wu Ji’s life was like when he was young, and whether it was a little difficult or not.
“I’ll take you to school later.” Wu Ji put down his chopsticks and said after eating a bowl of porridge.
“No need, I’m not a child, and this place is not far from our school.” How could I be embarrassed to trouble him any more?
He looked at me without a word, got up, and went to his room. When he returned, I was just finishing my meal and was about to leave when I saw him in his coat and bag, looking like he wanted to go out with me.
“Actually, you really don’t need to go through so much trouble. In a few days, when my mom is no longer so nervous, I’ll move back to school.”
“It’s nothing, I just happened to pass by along the way.” He looked at me and smiled.
Although Wu Ji’s personality was a little cold, but he was still very considerate. This should be the high EQ that others were talking about.
When we arrived at the school gates, Wu Ji said that he wanted to watch me go in. When I turned around to say my farewells to him, I saw a car parked at the gates.
“Qing Sheng, Mage. I just happened to have something to discuss with you guys, and coincidentally met you guys here! ” The Principal’s glasses shone in the morning light, looking at Wu Ji and revealed a very polite smile, even saying that he was trying to curry favor with him.
Wu Ji did not answer but did not leave either. He only stood there and indifferently looked at the Principal.
The Principal immediately opened the door and got off the car, walking in front of Wu Ji with a smile: “Mage, it’s really fate that we could meet in such a coincidental manner.”
I also walked over. When I heard the principal’s words, I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed for him. The words were too reluctant.
“Let’s not stand here on such a cold day. Why don’t we go in and talk?” I have something I want to ask you. ” The Principal very politely gestured to Wu Ji to invite him in.
Wu Ji looked at me for a moment, then cleared his throat and walked into the school with the principal.
I followed behind them eagerly, as I clearly sensed that Wu Ji did not want to follow, and was afraid that if I did not give face to the Principal, it would make things difficult for me.
When we arrived at the office, the principal boiled water and personally poured three cups of tea. My two hands that were overwhelmed by the favor received them, while Wu Ji merely nodded slightly.
Wu Ji had a calm expression on his face the entire time, he did not take the initiative to ask the Principal what business he had with them. Only when the Principal was unable to resist and asked Wu Ji and me, “Actually, even if I did not meet you guys at the entrance today, I would have asked Qing Sheng to invite you here.”
Wu Ji nodded his head, indicating that the Principal could continue.
Only after pausing for a moment did the Principal tell him why he had come to find Wu Ji.
So this matter was related to a friend of his. Recently, this friend of the principal seemed to have admitted that he had impurities, saying that he had seen unclean things following him from time to time recently, and that he had been particularly unlucky recently.
So the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was not right. He wanted to ask Wu Ji to let this friend see if he had really gotten entangled with something.
Hearing that, Wu Ji did not speak immediately, and I asked: “What do you mean by seeing unclean things?”
The headmaster said, “It’s a ghost. It says it can see ghosts.”
I felt it was strange and asked again, “Has there ever been such a situation before? See something that’s not clean. ”
“I don’t think so.” The headmaster shook his head.
I looked at Xiang Wuji, not knowing what he planned to do, or whether he planned to interfere in this matter.
“Better see me.” Wu Ji said.
“That won’t be a problem. Why don’t I call him over right now?” The principal was about to make a call.
“No rush.” I still have some things to take care of, so I’ll get Qing Sheng to bring you guys to me tonight. ” Wu Ji said.
When the Principal heard that Wu Ji was willing to intervene in this matter, his face revealed a smile, and said that he would definitely bring his friends to meet Wu Ji, and let him see just what exactly happened.
Saying that, Wu Ji stood up and said that he had some matters to attend to so he left first. When the Principal saw that Wu Ji had left, he immediately took on the serious look of a senior official, the face of a dog that was trying to curry favor with Wu Ji earlier was instantly eaten by the dog!
At night, I didn’t even have time to study at night, so the principal called me over to his office and told me to bring his friend to go find Wu Ji.
I complained in my heart. Usually, whatever I say is based on my life, but students should focus on their studies. Now, for my own self-interest, I am not even allowed to study at night!
I went out of the school in the headmaster’s car, which stopped at the crossroads. A middle-aged man in his fifties got on the bus, and I learned that he was a friend of the headmaster’s.
The man had eyes and his hair was neatly combed. He was dressed like a typical middle-aged veteran. In his hand was an old handbag. He was short and a little fat. He had a worried expression on his face, as if he was soaking in yellow lotus water.
I thought he looked familiar, like I’d seen him somewhere before, but for a moment I couldn’t place him.
The principal introduced his friend as Zhuang, and I asked him to tell me briefly what had happened.
When Uncle Zhuang talked about this, his expression became even more bitter, and he was even a little nervous. From time to time, he would suddenly turn his head to the side, and that look on his face was as though there was something that ordinary people could not see appearing around him. Not to mention if it really was something, just this look on his face was enough to frighten the people around him!
And his business began a month ago.
One night, he came home very late from a social meetup. There were not many people on the road at night, so he drove rather quickly and even drank a little while he was there.
On the way back, he suddenly heard a bang, as if he had hit something. He immediately stopped the car and got out to check. Because he didn’t see anyone in front of the car, he guessed that he ran into some small animals.
The weird thing was, after he got off the car, he looked around but didn’t find anything. Not to mention humans and small animals, there weren’t even any mineral water bottles on the way here.
So he got into the car and drove on, but the more he thought about it the more he felt that something was wrong, because he, too, had been an old driver for many years, and he could tell there was something wrong with the car.
And it was clearly the sound and feeling of him colliding with something just now, why couldn’t he find anything?
However, this strange matter was forgotten the next day after he slept. What he did not expect was that from the second day on, he felt that something was wrong around him.
The first time he saw it, it was in his garden. When he went downstairs, he saw an old man standing on the lawn. That old man was standing there, wondering what the old man was doing.
However, in the blink of an eye, he lowered his head and looked up. When he looked again, he discovered that there was no one around him, and there was no one around him at all.
In such a short period of time, he had completely disappeared from their line of sight. Even Liu Xiang would never be able to do that, let alone a seemingly weak and skinny old man.
Although it was winter back then, he inexplicably broke out in cold sweat.
