Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 523: The Blind Older
The idea of forming a group of trusted confidants did cross Tang Xiu's mind because he wanted to make his business bigger later. He thought that telling Hu Qingsong about it felt too early. Nevertheless, as the conversation reached this point, hiding it for longer made no sense. After a moment of contemplation, he finally decided and said, “Company Tang Magnificent. ”
Hu Qingsong furrowed her brows, trying to remember the name. He suddenly rose from his chair with a drastically changed expression. Placing his hands on the table, he leaned forward and looked at Tang Xiu fixedly, "You said that you are the Big Boss of the Magnificent Tang Company? The same Tang Magnificent company that produced the God of Nectar? "
"Yes," Tang Xiu said with a nod.
The shocking news that struck Hu Qingsong today was extreme to the point that she became numb. Therefore, he quickly jerked back to his senses and gave him a thumbs up, praising, "This little sister is willing to do her best for you, Big Bro Tang! I'll always follow you like a saddle following a horse. You are a god in my eyes! ”
"Hahaha, don't exaggerate so silly as you're going to die, right?" Tang Xiu could not help but laugh. “By the way, cut the crap and grab your food, we still have afternoon classes. ”
Hu Qingsong quickly nodded, “Oke, let's eat. Teacher Han just gave you a warning earlier, so we shouldn't be late this afternoon. After all, you are truly extraordinary, Big Bro Tang. A prodigy. You're really a super money bag that millions of students are almost impossible to catch up with in their lives, whereas I'm like a baby boy who has to go to school and learn to read. This Old Hu really admires you. ”
Tang Xiu, who was worried that their relationship would be affected if he told the truth, so he ended up feeling worried about not having to look at Hu Qingsong now. With a good mood, he smiled and said, “Learning a lot of things while young will result in good things. ”
"I understand," Hu Qingsong said with a nod.
At this moment, Ouyang Lulu was observing Hu Qingsong closely. He then suddenly took out the Paradise Manor VIP card and placed it in front of Hu Qingsong, saying, “This is for you. I'm welcoming you to dinner at my Paradise Manor later. ”
"Paradise Manor?" Hu Qingsong curiously asked. "What's this?"
“This is a comprehensive culinary and entertainment hill resort. With the ID number on this membership card you are exempt from all expenses there during your continued study at Shanghai University, ” Lulu said cryptically.
"Then, you are the owner of this Paradise Manor?" Hu Qingsong asked with a strange expression.
"Yes!" Replied Lulu with a nod.
In an instant, it was like something sucked the strength from Hu Qingsong's body. His eyes looked at Tang Xiu and Ouyang Lulu, as he said dejectedly, “All of a sudden I realized that two decades of my life had failed. We're the same age, but you two have really made the company and started your career, while the stupid me has done nothing. ”
With a gentle smile, Lulu replied, “I'll be 24 soon, so I'm a few years older than you. So, don't worry about it and study hard. You will enter the community in a few years, and if you work hard, you will have a good achievement also in the future. ”
Hu Qingsong clenched her hands and said seriously, "I will ponder on it well. Today really gave me a big surprise. I realized that even if I were to follow Big Brother Tang in the future, things would still not go well without me having social experience. So, I decided to go out and have a job while at university to gain social experience first. ”
"That would be awesome!" Ouyang Lulu raised her thumb and smiled happily.
The three then continued eating them. Although Lulu could not stay alone with Tang Xiu, Hu Qingsong's shocked and surprised expression made her amused. In addition, her straightforward personality was also liked by him.
However, just as the three were about to finish their lunch, a series of smacking and scolding sounds rang out from outside the Eternal Feast Hall. The noise made the guests at the outermost table rise up and avoid it.
"Continue with your food, I'll see it!" Tang Xiu furrowed his brows as he put down his chopsticks and walked out.
In front of the counter, the four security guards of the Eternal Feast Hall already contained several men and women causing trouble. There was also a messy blind old woman with a walking stick who was endlessly sighing. It was clear from his forehead that he had been hit by a blunt object, creating an opening wound with blood flowing into his eyebrows.
"What's going on here?" Tang Xiu walked over as he asked Chi Nan.
Pointing at the blind old woman, Chi Nan forced a smile and replied, "The mouth of this old man is also .. In short, what he said is very unpleasant to hear. Everyone thought he would eat here when he arrived. But he then went straight upstairs and surrounded every private box. After these guests came down, he cursed a few of them, it said that today was the time of their death and that they should immediately contact their family members to tell them what to do after their death. ”
A plump middle-aged man looked furious when he was detained by security officers. He struggled as hard as he raised his head and shouted, “That's right! this poor old man said that! If once or twice, it could still be borne, yet he kept repeating the same thing, endlessly cursing us to death. We had asked him to leave but he flatly refused to leave, and even spat at the dish we ordered … "
Tang Xiu forced a smile inside. He casually picked up the napkin box from a nearby table and crouched down in front of the blind old lady, saying, “Old Lady, it is very wrong for you to curse people and spit on their food! Stay still now. Your forehead is bleeding, so I'll remove it first. I'll take you to the nearest clinic to wrap it up later. ”
The depressed and grimacing expression on the face of the blind old woman changed in an instant. He grabbed Tang Xiu's wrist and clamped it a few times. After releasing it, he suddenly clapped his hands and smilingly said, “They can keep on living! Their whole family was finally able to live! ”
Tang Xiu raised his hand to cut it off. He frowned and asked, “Mrs old, I don't understand what you're saying. Will you explain it to us? "
The blind old woman pointed to Tang Xiu and said, “You know more about Heavenly Secrets than I do. Even though you can't see it now, you definitely understand it. I, this blind old lady, still want to live a few more years. I still refuse to leave this mortal and earthly world, so that the mystery of heaven must not be revealed. The lives of their entire family were arranged, and they should not leave the entrance of this restaurant even half a step away. Red candles, dog blood, and the sound of thousands of cannons will spread out to greet them as their families leave the entrance of this restaurant tomorrow. ”
Heavenly Secret?
Tang Xiu's complexion changed, as he quickly grasped the blind old woman's wrist. In just a few seconds, the color on his face receded and changed as he could clearly feel a wave of special energy fluctuating within the blind old woman's body. That powerful energy circulated throughout his body as if there was a stream of water flowing within it.
"You ..." Tang Xiu asked in a whisper.
The blind old woman smiled, “I'm too old and I forgot my own name. You can call me .. Just call me the blind old lady. In this life I understand what life is and fate is; about what life prophecy is, stealing destiny, robbing destiny, and losing life. Little did I expect that I would find a very interesting fate in the last few years of my life. Little one, your fate is very interesting! ”
Tang Xiu lifted his head to Chi Nan and said, “Bring this entire family behind. Serve them delicious dishes and drinks, and give them everything they need as far as possible. Remember, you should not let them leave half a step before tomorrow morning. ”
"Copy it!" Chi Nan immediately nodded.
The fat middle-aged man shouted, “What are you doing? It's the 21st century now, and society is governed by law! If you dare to illegally detain us, I will definitely file a lawsuit against you! "
"Rubber! You detained us illegally. What you do is just superstition. We are guests here, not your prisoners! ”Other middle-aged women are shouting loudly.
At this moment, there was also a young man among the audience who also supported them, “This place is a restaurant, and these people are guests. The act of restricting their freedom, you shouldn't do that, right? Moreover, this blind old lady was merely a liar; a fraud. What he said was just a trick! Or, are you, the people of the Eternal Feast Hall, conspiring with him? ”
Chi Nan ignored them and ordered the four security guards to take the family away. While Tang Xiu propped up the blind old woman and brought her to his desk. He then asked with a smile, "Old Lady, you are really very outstanding, an expert in the art of divinatory. You said you couldn't divulge the Heavenly Secrets, yet you actually did. In addition, you do so despite difficulties that suck your lifespan just to provide an opportunity for that family to continue living. ”
The blind old woman smirked, “This blind old woman did indeed leak the Heavenly Secrets. But then, I am the one who reached the Dao yet must be punished by the Heavenly Dao. That's what makes it interesting and fun. Do you know why I dared to do it? "
"Yes, why?" Tang Xiu asked, puzzled.
"That's because of you!" Answer the blind old woman.
"Because of me?" Tang Xiu was confused.
The blind old lady nodded, “Yes, because of you. I find it quite interesting, that as long as I involve you in the causal relationship of this incident, the punishment of the Heavenly Dao seems to be unable to target me even in the slightest. ”
"Can you gain insight into my fate with your divination art?" Ask Tang Xiu.
The blind old woman quickly waved her hand, “No, no, no! Don't bring disaster for me. I may not be afraid to see through the lives and fates of everyone in the world, but you are not the one I dare to see! Otherwise, I fear that I will lose my life at once. ”
"But why?" Ask Tang Xiu again.
"I don't know either. Your fate is too strange. I just couldn't figure it out even though I had immersed myself into the Heavenly Dao for over a century. Anyway, let's forget about that, shall we? How about talking about other things? ”
"What?" Ask Tang Xiu.
“I'm a bit tired of living in this country, how about you send me abroad? I've always loved the ocean, and this old lady will be thrilled if you send me somewhere in the middle of the ocean. It's just that I can't see where it is. The place was like another world, another space or nature, or something like that. So I can't go there alone. ”
Tang Xiu was shocked. It was clear to him that this blind old woman had already foreseen the situation on the Island of the Nine Dragons. And what he said was not wrong at all. Although the Island of the Nine Dragons actually existed on the planet, once the reconstruction was complete and he placed a large-sized array there, the place would definitely be similar to a new space, a new world.
