Chapter 745 Photo, one more person
Su Chen originally wanted to go back to the old street directly, but as soon as he turned the corner, he was stopped by a burst of fragrance.
At the corner of the street, a small stall was emitting white steam.
At the stall, plump white dumplings were garnished with black sesame seeds on a flat iron pan.
It's bulging and you can tell there's a lot of soup inside by looking at it.
Su Chen took a breath and stepped forward decisively.
"Ten pan-fried buns, please."
"Okay." The boss installed it for Su Chen neatly.
Eating a steamed bun, Su Chen slowly walked back to the old street.
From a distance, he saw that the stall was surrounded by people.
Su Chen: “???”
As he walked faster, a faint sound reached his ears.
"Girl, are you sure your memory is alright?"
"That's right, maybe I remembered it wrong? You were the seven people who went there?"
"Impossible! I organized this party, how could I not know how many people are involved? Seriously, believe me, I'm not sick."
"But didn't the friends who went with you say there were seven of us? You yourself said there were six people in the photo, and you took the photo alone."
"Their memories must have been altered. I really only invited five people."
The woman's voice sounded aggrieved.
Su Chen raised his eyebrows.
He ate the pan-fried bun he had just opened in a few bites and took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of his mouth.
When they arrived at the door of the teahouse, he raised his hand and handed the pan-fried buns in his hand to Xiao Liuer.
"Share it."
Xiao Liu'er was stunned for a moment, then quickly took it with a smile: "Thank you, Taoist Su~"
Taoist Priest Su?
The people surrounding the stall looked over immediately.
Seeing Su Chen coming back, Huang Nansong quickly made way: "Master Su, someone wants to see you."
Old Ji also turned sideways and pointed at the girl in the red skirt who was exposed: "Yes, this girl is looking for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone stepped back tacitly, leaving some space.
Su Chen stepped forward, glanced at the girl, and then his eyes fell on the table.
Three photos lined up in a row.
At first glance, there are six people in each photo, and everyone is smiling happily.
When the girl saw Su Chen, her eyes lit up. She quickly stood up and stretched out her right hand: "You are Taoist Su, right? Hello, my name is Xu Qiao."
Su Chen nodded to her.
Xu Qiao is very talkative.
Without waiting for Su Chen to sit down, he began to explain.
"I came here because my aunt told me there's a very capable gentleman here."
"These uncles all said you were amazing. I've encountered something that I can't figure out," she picked up the three photos on the table and handed them to Su Chen. "Master Su, can you help me figure out what's going on?"
Su Chen took the photo and sat down. He looked at it carefully and soon narrowed his eyes.
“The people in the three pictures are different.”
Xu Qiao nodded.
"Yes, because I didn't bring a stand, I had to have someone help me take the photo, so I changed people every time I took the photo."
"But I clearly remember there were only six people there, including me, and yet there are six people in every photo."
Su Chen nodded: "So you are wondering why there are so many people."
"Yes," Xu Qiao nodded. "It's more than just confusion. I only remember inviting five people, but I can't remember who they were. Moreover, I know all these people in the photo. Master Su, do you understand what I mean?"
Xu Qiao hesitated for a moment, then reorganized his words: "So, the five people in the photo were hired by me, and I don't know where the extra person came from, and I have no idea who he is!"
"I asked them, and they all said that there were seven of us hanging out together."
"And..." Xu Qiao paused, "After the photos were developed, something unexpected happened and the negatives were destroyed."
"This is such a coincidence. I think there must be something fishy going on."
"Master Su, please help me take a look. Did we bump into something dirty when we were out playing? It pretended to be my friend and affected my memory. Maybe..." Xu Qiao narrowed his eyes, "It even came back with us!"
As she spoke, she shuddered, obviously feeling terrified by the thought.
Su Chen looked at the photos carefully. In the three photos, three people were replaced, and the same three people were always there. Xu Qiao was one of them. There was a man and a woman beside her. Xu Qiao obviously had a good relationship with them. When taking pictures, her head was very close to them.
As for the few people who were replaced in turn, they looked ordinary and unremarkable.
Su Chen looked at the photo again twice: "There is no evil spirit in the photo, and the people in it are not mountain spirits or ghosts in disguise."
Xu Qiao blinked: "Are you sure?"
After she finished speaking, she subconsciously turned her head to look at Huang Nansong and the others, her eyes asking: Is this Taoist Master Su accurate?
Huang Nansong smiled awkwardly: "Little girl, I said you might..." He pointed to his head, "There's something wrong here."
Old Ji pulled him and said, "Can't you be more tactful?"
He also smiled at Xu Qiao.
"Little girl, you said it's been almost half a year, and you only developed the photos recently because you remembered. It's normal that you can't remember clearly after such a long time. I think we should just let it go and let it go."
Xu Qiao pursed his lips, obviously unwilling.
She turned her gaze to Su Chen again, and the latter returned the photo.
"Not only is there no Yin energy in the photo, but there's no Yin energy on you either. That's strange."
"Strange? Isn't it good to be free of Yin energy?" Old Ji asked in a low voice.
"Less yin energy is naturally better, but at night, spirits roam, and there should be yin energy everywhere. It's normal for ordinary people to pick up some of it when they pass by or stop there. But she doesn't have a single bit of it."
Old Ji nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Xu Qiao: "Little girl, you don't have any talismans or blessed items on you?"
Xu Qiao shook his head slowly.
"No."
Huang Nansong asked again: "Have you ever drunk any magic water?"
Xu Qiao shook his head again: "My parents don't believe in this and won't let me drink the magic water."
Su Chen raised the corner of his mouth: "That's strange."
He was rarely interested: "Do you remember your birth chart?"
Xu Qiao was obviously well prepared. She quickly took out the paper with the eight characters written on it from her bag and handed it to Su Chen.
Su Chen took a look, counted on his fingers, and then squinted his eyes and stared at Xu Qiao for a while.
"How about it, Master Su, have you figured out anything?"
Su Chen shook his head.
He frowned.
According to Xu Qiao's horoscope, she was born into a wealthy family and was smart since childhood. In a few years, she would meet her true love and give birth to a son and a daughter. She would live a rich life. Although she would not be as well off as the rich, she would be more than enough than the poor.
The three images that the Heavenly Eye saw on her were her marriage, childbirth, and her mother's death.
They are all very normal and there is nothing wrong with them.
Su Chen touched his chin, frowned, and used his Heavenly Eyes to carefully observe Xu Qiao from top to bottom again.
Old Song took a bite of the steamed bun with his wet hands and came out of the teahouse with satisfaction. Seeing this scene, he was stunned. He turned around and grabbed Xiao Liu'er and asked, "Master Su, what are you doing?"
Xiao Liuer explained quietly, and Old Song suddenly realized: "I thought he was interested in this girl."
"You know what, this little girl looks just like your sister."
Xiao Liu'er was unhappy.
"No, my sister is the prettiest!"
