Metaphysics, from getting started to giving up

Not long after, Xie Qianchou also drove to Jindu Film and Television Academy.While talking on the phone, Zhou Yi walked towards the new car that Xie Qianchou pointed out to him, while paying attention to the movements of Ye Qingkong and the male student.The two talked again, and then they left together.Zhou Yi speculated about Ye Qingkong's intentions in his heart, but when nothing came to fruition, he had no choice but to give up, suppressing the doubts in his heart, and got into Xie Qianchou's car.

The other party is rich and powerful, and the newly purchased car is a silver-gray MPV commercial vehicle, which looks low-key and luxurious.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but sincerely sighed that it's nice to be rich.

The only way to relieve worries is to get rich.

The structure of the seat belt inside the commercial vehicle is somewhat different from that of Xie Qianchou's previous car. When Zhou Yi got into the co-driver, Xie Qianchou leaned over very consciously and helped him fasten the seat belt.After all, Zhou Yi is basically in a cognitively disabled state of modern high-tech, and it takes a while to get used to most new things.

When the car started, Zhou Yi suddenly remembered that he had never asked Xie Qianchou about the other party.

Out of courtesy to the owner, should he also express some moderate concern?

Zhou Yi thought for a while, after all, Xie Qianchou basically took care of his food, housing and work now.

He suddenly said, "Didn't you say that you had an enmity with Ye Qingkong before? What kind of quarrel does he have with you?"

Xie Qianchou was concentrating on driving, when Zhou Yi made a sudden noise, he almost stopped and ran the yellow light.Zhou Yi usually ignored him, but in Xie Qianchou's impression, he had imagined him to be an independent, indifferent and arrogant feline man. Xie Qianchou was a little flattered by his sudden concern, and almost thought that Zhou Yi He changed his nature and turned into a character who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

"It's a bit difficult to explain, it's a long story," Xie Qianchou pretended to be flat, "You are a child of a mysterious family, you should have attainments in fate and physiognomy."

Zhou Yi said modestly, "Know a thing or two."

"Then can you tell my fate? If not, I can also give you my birth date, and you will know after doing the math."

Zhou Yi pondered: "Actually, I have already seen it. You are... um... um..."

He was thinking about how to say it to be more tactful, so as not to hurt Xie Qianchou's self-esteem.

It's impossible to bluntly say that this person is a once-in-a-lifetime peerless star, right?

"I'm very unlucky, isn't it?" Xie Qianchou answered by himself instead.

Zhou Yi continued to be modest: "Actually, it's okay! I've seen worse luck than you."

Xie Qianchou: "..."

Because of the number limit on Friday, although the rush hour is still congested, the traffic conditions are much better than before.Not long after, the commercial vehicle drove Zhou Yi and Xie Qianchou back to the apartment that Xie Qianchou had arranged for Zhou Yi.

After parking the car, the two continued their previous conversation while walking into the bachelor apartment building.

"You may not know my background, but I am actually the eldest son of the Xie family. I think you should know the status of the Xie family in China, and you can be regarded as a child of three generations beyond the standard." Xie Qianchou said with some nostalgia That said, this was the first time he had told others about his origins.

For some reason, he always felt that although Zhou Yi was not serious at times, he was unexpectedly reliable.

For example, when he caught a glimpse of the other party being made things difficult by the ignorant second generation ancestor on the set, or when the other party solved the ghost marriage team.

Zhou Yi nodded.

— In fact, he didn't know at all.

Xie Qianchou said as he walked.

As the leading family business in China, Xie's has a history of more than [-] years.After the reform and opening up, although most of the enterprises under the Xie family have changed from private ownership to public ownership due to changes in the current situation, more than half of the equity is still in the hands of the Xie family.Xie Qianchou, as the eldest son of the Xie family, has a superior background and excellent ability. Although he is unlucky, it doesn't hurt. Xie's equity in Chengfeng Media has basically been handed over to him by the owner.

People are always afraid of the unknown, even a family as wealthy as Xie's is not exempt from it.

"The Xie family and the Daoist sect were already family friends before the founding of the country. Later, when the elders of the Daoist sect were invited by my father to take my fate, they calculated the fate of six murders and seven murders. They took the initiative to ask me to worship under the Daoist sect. Some mystical arts and Taoist methods also used medical and mountain arts to change my life," Xie Qianchou said, "It's a pity that the seven kills are too fierce. After so many years, I am still very unlucky."

Zhou Yi listened quietly.

The floor of the apartment is on the third floor, and the two of them walked to the door of the apartment not long after.Taking out the key to open the door, Xie Qianchou pushed the door open and entered.

His voice was a little erratic: "However, it's the same as I said before. I think staying with you seems to make my luck better."

"What happened to Ye Qingkong?"

Xie Qianchou let out a long sigh: "He and I are both disciples of the Taoist sect. He is a year younger than me, so he can be regarded as my junior brother. It's just that my senior brother didn't do well, because this bad luck...killed his brother-in-law. .”

"Brother?"

"Yes, the situation of the Daoist family is more complicated. Apart from families like the Xie family, there are also some other wealthy families. Ye Qingkong is from another family," Xie Qianchou continued, "His parents... were infertile in their early years. , and adopted an orphan. Later, when the head of the Taoist sect learned about this, he let the child enter the Taoist sect and prayed for his parents. You also know that a family always values ​​bloodlines."

Zhou Yi nodded: "I understand."

He came from the era that focused on divine right of kings and bloodlines, and he knew more about the backwardness in this than anyone else.

Even though it is now an era of openness and progress, all living beings are still unavoidable.

Zhou Yiben has a flexible mind, and Xie Qianchou has clarified the relationship when he mentioned this: "That is to say, Ye Qingkong is that child, that is, after his brother-in-law came to the Taoist sect, the Ye family Is it your newborn son?"

"Yes."

"Isn't this righteous brother's status embarrassing?" Zhou Yi has also seen a rich family with infertility adopt a child from a poor relative before. If a parent-child is born later, the situation of the stepson will inevitably plummet.

Xie Qianchou's expression became a little subtle: "Well... Although the Ye family doesn't care much about that child anymore, Ye Qingkong is very close to his foster brother. His foster brother is older than me, I remember When I was young, I even kissed a little exaggeratedly, Ye Qingkong had to let his brother-in-law urinate even when he went to the bathroom, and if others made him, he would urinate all over him."

Zhou Yi: "..."

It's a bit hard to imagine, what was the painting style of that treacherous and cunning fox eye when he was a child?

Xie Qianchou lowered his eyes, with a painful expression on his face.

"After all, I was the one who harmed him... It's only natural that Ye Qingkong hates me."

Zhou Yi suddenly said: "Where did you say that you killed that child? Is it... related to your murder?"

Xie Qianchou said: "It is true."

A few years ago, when Xie Qianchou hadn't graduated from school, he once encountered a ghostly night walk.

It was July and a half at that time, the gate of ghosts opened, Xie Qianchou was unlucky, and his character was light, so he half-stepped into the gate of ghosts.If it hadn't been for his elder brother Ye's sworn brother who rescued him at that time, Xie Qianchou might have died long ago.Recalling the past crisis, Xie Qianchou is still a little scared.

"I'm sorry Senior Brother Ye. If he didn't come to save me, he wouldn't be dragged into the gate of hell by the evil spirits who came out of the gate, and his life and death would be unknown."

After Xie Qianchou said this sentence, deep guilt and guilt appeared on his face.Even though he knew in his heart that Ye's righteous brother's death had no direct connection with him, it was indeed his bad luck that killed him.

Seven kills and six murders, he may not be able to escape the tragic fate in this life.

Seeing that he was depressed, Zhou Yi didn't know what to say for a moment.

After thinking about it, he suddenly snapped his fingers.

Xie Qianchou looked up at him: "What's wrong?"

"Don't blame yourself, maybe Senior Brother Ye didn't die then?" Zhou Yi comforted him, "Although the gate of ghosts is extremely dangerous, Senior Brother Ye is also a disciple of your Taoist sect, so he should know a lot of mystic arts, right? A mere ghost, why not?" Can it make him die in Huangquan?"

"But if he didn't die, why didn't he return to the Taoist sect and never contacted us," Xie Qianchou suddenly felt extremely disgusted with his fate, "It's been four years, and from a legal perspective, it can be directly judged that brother dead!"

"There are sentient beings outside the law," Zhou Yi blinked at him, "If you do the math, don't you know?"

Xie Qianchou frowned: "Back then, even the head of the Taoist sect could not calculate the whereabouts of Senior Brother Ye."

"Tell me his birthday and horoscope, what if he can figure it out?"

Zhou Yi said seriously.

He was born full of vigor, but now he is staring at Xie Qianchou so intently, the corners of his eyes slightly raised are full of indescribable confidence, people can't help but trust him and entrust everything to him.Xie Qianchou paused, and suddenly felt that maybe Zhou Yi could really figure something out.

After all, the other party came from a mysterious mystical family, and maybe he possessed a secret method unknown to Taoism.

He bowed deeply to Zhou Yi.

"Then I'm counting on you, Zhou Yi."

Xie Qianchou called Zhou Yi's name in a rare way.

***

That night.

Zhou Yi looked around, holding a disc-shaped copper compass, and went up to the top floor of the apartment with Xie Qianchou.This elevator apartment is as high as [-] floors, and the top floor can be said to be a dangerous building with a height of [-] feet, and you can pick stars.In the middle of the night, the colorful neon lights in the city were still flickering, but standing at such a high place, those lights were pulled far away, and the light dimmed and flickered a little, which made Zhou Yi a little dazed for a while, not knowing whether it was stars in the sky, or There are stars on the earth.

He picked up the compass, compared it to the dim stars in the night sky, and started the star map divination.

Xie Qianchou stood beside him solemnly, when suddenly the night wind blew in, making Xie Qianchou slightly stunned.Seeing Zhou Yi who was fiddling with the compass sneezed, he hurriedly took off his coat and put it on Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi tilted his head: "You are not cold."

Xie Qianchou didn't mention himself, but said: "Don't catch a cold."

Zhou Yi saw that he looked indifferent, shook his head, and began to pay attention to the rotation of the needle on the compass again.After he was immersed in the astrolabe, Xie Qianchou twitched his nostrils and shivered.He stamped his feet in an attempt to warm his body.

Damn it, why is it so cold!

Zhou Yi turned his head again: "You should wear the clothes yourself."

Xie Qianqiu forced his face: "It's okay, my body is stronger than yours, I won't catch a cold, right! Have you figured out anything?"

"Forget it, it's figured out."

Zhou Yi's expression suddenly turned subtle.

Xie Qianchou was overjoyed, but seeing Zhou Yi's expression was wrong, he frowned and asked: "Senior Brother Ye, did he really die long ago..."

"No, he eats deliciously, and lives more nourishingly than a pig, but... didn't you tell me before that your senior brother is called Ye Minglang?"

"what happened?"

Zhou Yi's expression became more subtle.

Like... choking.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that he's changed his name now."

"What's that called!" Xie Qianchou was a little anxious.

Zhou Yi paused.

"Oh, he is now a novelist. His name is... Su Duan Leg. When he takes medicine, he calls Su Su Su Su Su Su Su Su Su Su Broken Leg. Su cut off his head, neck, torso, hands, feet and tail."

Xie Qianchou: "..."
