soul collector

Chapter 71 The Practitioner's Self-Exploration

Tang Xiu asked again: "When did that happen?"

——"I really can't remember, but not long after that, Senior fell asleep."

Tang Xiu, "Before you separated from senior, did he meet any important people?"

——"No, Senior has been with me before that and helped me collect two strands of soul."

The clues are interrupted here again.

Tang Xiuxiu was about to call Jiang Qiao, when the bed suddenly started to squirm, and something pushed his butt through the bed board.The old ancestor had no choice but to dodge to the side, and after a while, Xiao Xiaoxiu's head came out from under the bed.It was almost noon before the dog woke up and looked at the owner with sleepy dog ​​eyes.

Tang Xiu sighed, "Hungry?"

Xiao Xiaoxiu yawned, shook his buttocks and went to grab his own bowl.

Jiang Qiao came in from the outside suddenly, "Hello Xiaoxiu? I'll come."

Tang Xiu hummed, looked at Jiang Qiao's well-dressed clothes, and asked, "Where did you go?"

"I went down the mountain to meet a friend who was a screenwriter, and the script for the new play is almost ready."

"Have you read the text message?"

"I saw it, but I didn't have time to go back." Jiang Qiao sighed, "Lu Xinrong is quite a thief, but he is a Hong Kong star, and the market and theater are different from yours. If you don't mess with the river, he can't make trouble for you."

Tang Xiu hummed, watched Xiao Xiaoxiu happily eating canned dog food, and said in a low voice, "My role is almost done. If you want his soul, you must act quickly."

Jiang Qiao nodded and said with a smile, "It's just a strand of soul, let it be, don't put so much pressure on yourself."

Tang Xiu glanced at him and forced a smile.

He didn't tell Jiang Qiao about Suanni Mountain. It was said that the old ancestor knew the Arabian Nights as soon as he heard it, but Jiang Qiao might not be able to sleep because of it.

While helping Xiao Xiaoxiu with a massage, Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "By the way, you haven't posted on Weibo since the last time you trapped Wang Yu. I checked your Weibo today, and netizens said that star chasing is a thing of drought." Drought to death from flood to death from flood, other artists are crazy about their presence, once you disappear, you will not be seen for ten and a half months."

The old ancestor was confident, "The film is still being filmed, and there is no new work to promote, so why not post on Weibo?"

Jiang Qiao sighed, rubbed the flesh around Xiaoxiu's neck, and said to it, "Listen, your master shouldn't be too righteous."

Tang Xiu snorted, and glanced coldly at Jiang Qiao, "Tonight you sleep in your own tent honestly, Lu Xinrong can see it, you should restrain yourself."

A certain director froze when he heard this, and asked after a while, "Then when will you finish filming?"

"If I were you, I would think about how to figure out what happened to Lu Xinrong before the filming is over."

"I know, I know." Jiang Qiao sighed, put Xiaoxiu on a dog leash, and went out for a walk, muttering, "It's just the contempt of a school bully for a school trash. Years, I'm proud of myself."

Xiao Xiaoxiu yawned and walked in front shaking his buttocks.

Tang Xiu was lying on the bed thinking about collecting soul banners, but he fell asleep again in a daze after a while.In the dream, he went back to who knows how many years ago, running around every day to collect souls.In each episode, there is a new soul that has never been collected before, and the joy is still very real even after so many years.

The ancestor in the dream sighed, he hadn't experienced that kind of happiness for thousands of years.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, a gust of wind suddenly came into the tent.Tang Xiu woke up suddenly, turned over and sat up, only to see that Jiang Qiao was holding the door curtain with one hand, and dragging Xiaoxiu who refused to go home with the other.

Seeing Tang Xiu's shocked face, Jiang Qiao asked in surprise, "Are you asleep again?"

"Again?" Tang Xiu was stunned.

"Yes." Jiang Qiao finally dragged the dog back, took off the leash, poured it a bowl of water, and said, "Didn't you find that you like to sleep a lot recently? It wasn't like this before, and your living habits are so regular. People point their fingers."

Tang Xiu didn't speak, Jiang Qiao walked over and said in a low voice, "Are you too tired? This job..."

"No." Tang Xiu shook his head, frowned, and said in a low voice, "There was such a big commotion this morning, I didn't wake up."

"Yeah. I flipped through it with a bang, but you didn't even move your fingers."

"Recently... I often have dreams."

Jiang Qiao rubbed his ancestor's shoulders, "Dreams are normal, who can't dream."

Tang Xiu didn't speak, in fact he rarely dreamed in the past.The so-called thinking day by day and dreaming at night, dreaming at night is because there are worries in the heart, and there is no way to completely relax.But the longer a person lives, the less he values ​​things, and the purer the time of rest at night.

Li Ziping's voice suddenly came from outside, "Ms. Lu? Are you out?"

Tang Xiu and Jiang Qiao looked at each other, and whispered to Jiang Qiao, "Go out and have a look."

Jiang Qiao nodded, opened the curtain and walked out. After a while, he and Li Ziping came in together.Li Ziping said speechlessly, "Did the two of you break the pot? Director Jiang didn't even explain when he left your room."

Tang Xiu didn't deny it, but just asked Jiang Qiao, "Do you see any problem?"

"No big problem, he looked very normal, so he exchanged pleasantries with us."

"Is there a big problem?"

Jiang Qiao hummed and gave him a meaningful look, "But he was carrying a white bag with a small blue elephant wrapped in a circle of stars."

Tang Xiu couldn't be more familiar with this pattern.It was a well-known private hospital in H City, and it had branches in many places. Before Chen Gui was hospitalized, and Wang Yu went to the hospital for examination after being injured, they all went to that one.The bag of this hospital is very special, there is no text on it, only the logo.

Li Ziping said: "The two of you are not really trying to catch Lu Xinrong, are you?"

Jiang Qiao didn't speak, but the old ancestor suddenly laughed, laughing until Li Ziping's back got hairy.He suddenly had a bad premonition, and immediately waved his hand and said, "No, no, no."

"No, what? You can't do it before I speak."

Li Ziping shook his head like a rattle, "If you can't do it, you can't do it, you can't say anything."

……

Two hours later, Jiang Qiao and Tang Xiu still appeared at the entrance of the hospital wearing masks.

They chose the one that was closest to the crew. Tang Xiu remembered that there was a girl whose hometown was in the mainland at the guidance desk, so he went straight there.

She didn't even need to take off the mask, the girl recognized Tang Xiu at a glance, she was overjoyed at first, then hesitated, "Why are you here again? And who..." She swallowed half of her words, probably thinking that It's not polite to directly ask yourself who idol broke again.

Tang Xiu smiled good-naturedly, "No, it's just that Director Chen's congested part hasn't healed yet, and he still needs some medicine to reduce the stasis. The imported one you prescribed last time is very useful, and you can't buy it in the pharmacy. .”

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, well, did you bring your medical records from last time?"

Tang Xiu looked troubled, "I'm not here. Senior Lu Xinrong was here to get the medicine, but I couldn't get in touch with him. The director is waiting."

The girl was taken aback, and said defenselessly: "Lu Xinrong has been here, but he didn't mention buying medicine."

Tang Xiu was also surprised and said, "Then why is he here? Isn't that why he came here?"

"No, he's here for brain surgery. I didn't recognize him at first, but I found out after recording the message."

Tang Xiu snorted, "Senior does have his own business, maybe he forgot about buying medicine."

The girl sighed, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, we can't prescribe medicine without previous cases. Would you like to go back and get it?"

Tang Xiu nodded, "Okay, I'm sorry."

When Tang Xiu came over, Jiang Qiao asked, "How is it?"

"It's really brain science."

Jiang Qiao said in a low voice, "The bag he is holding today is very big and thin, and it should contain X-rays or something like that. But he came here alone, so he couldn't have taken the pictures himself."

Tang Xiu thought about it and said: "The film may be brought by myself. It was filmed in another hospital and consulted in this hospital. According to my intuition, the one who was burned into a fool should be a child, probably about the same age as Kexin."

"Maybe it's his friend or relative's child, please ask him to ask if he's sick, but his behavior seems to be a bit too much..."

Tang Xiu said: "What if it's his own child? Kexin is only seven or eight years old this year, and Lu Xinrong is thirty. If he also has a child who is about the same age, that means that this child should be born when he was 22 years old. born."

Jiang Qiao sighed, "But Lu Xinrong is still unmarried and has no children. He is a capable actor, he doesn't gossip, he only focuses on acting, and he doesn't even have a girlfriend."

"Let's go."

Seeing the calm expression on his ancestor's face, Jiang Qiao asked in a low voice, "Do you have any guesses?"

Tang Xiu hummed, "Regardless of whether he has a girlfriend or is married, this child can only be his own."

"why?"

Tang Xiu gave Jiang Qiao a meaningful look, "When reasoning about something, you can't look at what makes sense, but what doesn't make sense. If someone asks him to help with medical consultation, and his performance of Kexin shows that He cares about children in his heart, so why is he so nervous and repulsive every time he answers the phone call?"

The old ancestor's gaze was unfathomable, Jiang Qiao suddenly felt his heart suspend, and subconsciously said, "He has a guilty conscience."

"That's right." Tang Xiu slightly raised the corners of his lips, "This is the end of the ancestor's reminder. I can't interfere too much if we want to gather this strand of soul."

"understood."

In the evening, Tang Xiuxiu sat on the bed and flipped through the materials.He searched a lot of interpretations of the six-pointed star totem on the Internet. There are all kinds of explanations.Jiang Qiao walked in from the outside and said, "I have a clue about Lu Xinrong's matter."

The old ancestor hummed, and while outlining the information with a highlighter, he listened to Jiang Qiao's words.

"I checked Lu Xinrong's acting career. He made his debut at the age of 19, and became popular at the age of 21 because he starred in a popular criminal investigation drama. At the age of 26, he terminated the contract with the brokerage company and established his own studio. Since then, the style of the drama has become more mature and stable. Today. But in the five years between the age of 21 and 26, the company did not position him as a powerful group, he also made idol dramas, appeared in magazines, and fired people.”

Tang Xiu raised his head, "What kind of character design?"

Jiang Qiao paused, and said in a low voice, "A handsome young man who works hard, with a pure mind and no adulteration."

The old ancestor smiled, "So you know."

"Well, I see." Jiang Qiao sighed, "I checked his background again. In fact, Lu Xinrong came to Hong Kong to work hard after he was 16 years old, but his hometown is in a village."

"What village?"

Jiang Qiao shook his head, "I don't know about that. The rural areas in Hong Kong are different from those in the mainland, and they retain a certain amount of traditional clanism. It is still difficult for mainlanders to check these things."

Tang Xiu hummed, "It's enough to get here."

Jiang Qiao hesitated for a moment, "But...we have cracked Lu Xinrong's secret, how can we really get that ray of soul?"

Tang Xiu smiled and said softly: "Good and evil souls are everywhere, but the soul collectors only take a small part of them, because not every strand of soul is destined for each other. Since Lu Xinrong himself bumped into it, there must be some. An opportunity to gather souls, you have figured out the truth of the matter, the next step is to wait."

"Waiting?" Jiang Qiao curled his lips, "It means that after working for a long time, I finally let it go? Alright."

What about collecting souls, it is more comfortable to lie down with the ancestors.

A certain unmotivated director sighed, glanced at the pile of documents that Tang Xiuxiu was flipping through, and asked curiously, "What the hell have you been looking for recently? It's mysterious, let me take a look..."

However, when Tang Xiu heard the words, he put the cap on the pen, threw the stack of things on the ground, and said, "It's just some illusory things. I've been very tired recently, and I'm a little sleepy again."

When Jiang Qiao heard this, he changed direction temporarily and walked over, helping his ancestor hold his shoulders, and said gently: "Take a month off after filming this movie, and I'll help you find some high-quality programs. You have to buffer it."

Tang Xiu hummed.Jiang Qiao thoughtfully helped the ancestor cover the quilt, and said to Xiaoxiu in the corner, "Your master is going to sleep, please be quiet."

Hearing this, Xiao Xiaoxiu arched his buttocks and went back under the bed.Tang Xiu didn't know what was going on, and the drowsiness really surged up immediately. He felt the big lump under the bed rubbed inch by inch to the center of the bottom of the bed, moved to the side for Xiaoxiu, and held on Said: "I think Xiaoxiao should change her name."

"what is it call?"

The old man yawned, "Voldemort."

Jiang Qiao couldn't help laughing, "Get some rest."

Within half a minute, the sound of the ancestor's steady breathing came from the bed.Jiang Qiao gently poured him a glass of water and put it beside him, then turned and left.

The door curtain opened, and a gust of wind blew in. The top few pages of the stack of materials were blown away, and the exposed page had a line of small characters marked with a highlighter.

"...Six lights, formed from chaos and perfection, symbolize the rebirth of all things..."
