ghost craftsman

Chapter 127 Requirements
Before I could finish speaking, Mr. Wu was so angry that he slapped his palm on the table and said sharply, "Get lost! I don't have time to fool around with you!"

Hearing this, I was also anxious, and hurriedly asked him: "What request do you have, just ask, the boy will do it even if his body is smashed to pieces."

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Wu's originally angry face eased a little, and he tapped the table with his right hand lightly, without saying a word.

After a while, he slowly said: "Young man, seeing that you are from the countryside, and the old man is also from the countryside, I don't want to make it difficult for you, but the rules of the old man cannot be broken!"

"What rules?" I asked quickly.

He stroked the white beard on his chin, frowned, and didn't answer my question, instead he asked, "How did you find the old man? How did you know that the old man could save your second uncle and that child?"

How dare I hide it, I immediately told about Wang Runxue.

Hearing this, his brows became tighter, "Wang Runxue?"

After thinking about it for a while, he waved his hand and continued: "I don't care where you found out about Laoji, but since you have come to Laoji's house, you have to follow the rules of Laoji. How about it, you start from 23 Run upstairs to downstairs, and from downstairs to 23, the old man will tell you more about it."

Hearing this, without any hesitation, I went out immediately, ran downstairs in one breath, and ran back to the 23rd floor with all my strength, almost collapsed, and my words started to tie up, so I said: "Mr. Wu... , what else do you need me to do?"

He glanced at me with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Run again!"

I... I... I was a little speechless, and finally understood why Lin Fan said that Mr. Wu was difficult to speak. This was not only difficult to speak, but he was clearly making things difficult on purpose, but he didn't dare to delay, and ran out immediately.

When I ran to the 23rd floor again, I felt that my feet didn't seem to be my own. I sat down on the ground and said again: "Wu... old..., you..."

Before I finished speaking, Mr. Wu didn't know if he had thought of something or what was going on. He walked up to me, his expression froze, and he tapped me on the back casually three times.

With these three clicks of his, my whole body instantly became extremely relaxed, which made me stare at him in surprise, trembling: "You..."

"Follow the old man into the house!" He stepped up and walked into the room.

I hurriedly followed, but I was very curious in my heart. Mr. Wu tapped me three times just now, which seemed normal, but I could clearly feel that the whole person was relaxed, and the fatigue before was even more so. was swept away.

After entering the house, to my surprise, Mr. Wu's attitude changed drastically. He first invited me to his study, then made me a cup of tea, and finally said to me with satisfaction: "Yes, now it's like It's rare to see such an honest young man like you."

I giggled, if I guessed right, the old man was testing me just now, and he was about to speak, when he heard Mr. Wu continue to say: "The two things you said earlier, as for your second uncle, I can only send them to you." In a word, the possibility of a complete cure is almost zero. Even if the old man takes action, he can only control the deterioration of his condition and let him enjoy the lifespan of a normal person. Otherwise, within a year, your second uncle will definitely die of exhaustion. What happened to the child, this old man can completely cure him."

I frowned. My second uncle has been paralyzed in bed all these years, and he hasn't seen any deterioration. It can even be said that ten years have been the same day. How come Mr. Wu said that he would die of exhaustion within a year? You must know that I came to look for Mr. Wu because I wanted him to cure my second uncle.

I asked out my doubts.

Mr. Wu told me that there were two reasons why my second uncle was paralyzed in bed. One was that he suffered retribution, which caused the loss of the five elements in his body, which would make the bones all over his body extremely brittle. The second is that the second uncle may have done something shady, otherwise, he will also suffer retribution, why my father only broke a finger, but the second uncle is paralyzed.

As for why the second uncle has been consistent for ten years in recent years, Mr. Wu explained that everyone is born by the energy of the five elements of Yin and Yang in the universe. The speed of gas loss is generally 19 years, and it will definitely be lost. It may be because of the special situation of the second uncle that it has been like a day for ten years.

His words made me nervous all of a sudden, so I asked him, "You mean my father will die at that time too?"

He nodded and said: "Theoretically speaking, it is indeed the case. As the folks often say, it's not that you don't report, the time has not yet arrived. This time refers to the time when the energy of the five elements in the body is exhausted."

I half-understood, but I completely believed what he said, and felt that Mr. Wu's analysis made sense. I heard from my mother that since I was born, my father's body and bones have also been much worse than before. , I was very tired all over my body, and sometimes I felt extremely painful in my bones after bumping a little. This kind of situation should be the loss of the energy of the five elements that Mr. Wu said.

But he said that my second uncle had done shady things, which I couldn't agree with. I know very well the character of my second uncle, a typical good guy, how could he do such shady things.

I asked the old man if he made a mistake in his deduction.

He smiled and said, "Young man, you know people, you know your face, you don't know your heart. From what you just said, this old man can only deduce this. Of course, it is also possible that you missed something, which caused this old man to infer wrongly." , All of this will have to wait for the old man to meet your second uncle and your father before he can make a conclusion."

After that, he got up slowly, as if he didn't want to say anything more about this matter, he changed the topic and asked me with a smile: "From what you said earlier, you should be a ghost craftsman, right?"

I hummed and said truthfully, "I joined the industry last year."

He smiled and said: "I happen to have a difficult task under my hands, and I want to ask the ghost craftsman for help. If you can help this old man, in exchange, this old man will go to Hengyang with you."

When I heard this, I became a little reluctant. It's not that I don't want to help him, but that Ge Yao's younger brother is in a hurry. I'm afraid that something will happen if I delay. In a hurry, he said: "The situation of my friend's younger brother is a little urgent, can you..."

Before I finished speaking, he stopped and said: "You don't have to worry about this, the old man knows it well, so I will ask you a question, would you be willing to help the old man with this?"

I didn't even think about it, so I hurriedly said: "You said, the kid will go all out."

He stroked the beard on his chin, and said with a smile: "If that's the case, you will go to the countryside with the old man in the afternoon."

I hummed and quickly agreed, but I was still a little curious, so I asked the old man how confident he was about the matter between my second uncle and my father, and he said [-]%.

This made me respectful all of a sudden. As a ghost craftsman, I know that the longer the age of some things, the lower the confidence will be. However, Mr. Wu dared to say that he has eight points, which shows his ability.

But I still have some doubts in my heart. If even Mr. Wu can't solve the problem, can it be useful to ask me?

With this kind of doubt, I stayed in Wu's hometown until the afternoon, around two o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Wu asked me to bring my tools, and then led me out of the house.
