Chapter 61: Divine Wind Gate - Du Song
Seeing Yi Tian, Bai Xue smiled and said: "You're here!"
Haha, Yi Tian, it's been a while since we last met. You've changed quite a bit, I almost didn't recognize you! You're looking more spirited than ever!
Yi Tian nodded and smiled at Bai Xue, then turned to ask Bai Wei Ye: "Hehe, Uncle, why did you come today? Don't you have work today?"
"I'm going out to take care of some things today, and it just so happens that I can drop Bai Xue off at school on the way. Speaking of which, I used to be a student here too, it's been ages since I've been back. Might as well come take a look around."
Yi Tian continued to ask: "How have you been feeling physically lately? Nothing serious, right?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, just been feeling sleepy a lot lately."
"As long as you're healthy, you must take good care of yourself. I'll be watching from afar, goodbye!" Yi Tian waved goodbye to the two and headed towards the dormitory.
When chatting with Bai Weiyeh, Yi Tian carefully examined him and finally confirmed his thoughts. Bai Weiyeh had a 'blood evil' attached to him, and this evil energy was the result of external forces at work, not his predestined fate. In other words, Bai Weiyeh had been harmed by someone else.
If it is not resolved in time, there may be concerns for one's life.
But now it's not good to talk to Bai Weiye about this matter, it's easy to save him for the time being, but if he doesn't think of a way to thoroughly solve it, he will die sooner or later.
And also last time I asked if he had offended anyone, from Bai Weiye's situation, he should know himself, but he seemed unwilling to say more.
If he doesn't break through this point, even if someone is willing to help him, it will be in vain if he himself is unwilling to cooperate.
Bai Weiyu works in the Discipline Inspection Commission, and he doesn't have a huge grudge against ordinary people. The ones he has offended are just some corrupt government officials and business leaders. If someone is going to such great lengths to take his life, then this matter must be enormous.
Moreover, this matter also has a great relationship with Dong Qian's father. One is his own teacher and the other is his relatively close classmate, it's really not easy to take action casually.
Yi Tian walked while thinking about Bai Weiye's affairs, he had already made up his mind. He planned to find a chance to talk to Bai Xue alone and tell her first, letting her probe the situation with Bai Weiye.
But this matter can be big or small, helping Bai Weiye is possible, as long as you don't get yourself drawn into an endless dark whirlpool.
He soon returned to his dormitory.
"Haha, Yi Lao Da is great!"
Yitian had just pushed open the door and saw Skinny Monkey giving himself a military salute.
"Easy, old chap!"
"Easy, old man!"
The young scholar and Old Gao were also smiling all over their faces as they greeted each other.
"Haha, everyone's back! Hey, Lao Gao, you seem to have grown again. With a head like yours, it's a waste if you don't play basketball!"
"Thin monkey, looks like you had a pretty good year, your face has even gotten a bit rounder."
"Student, have a good holiday and review well? Do you have confidence in getting into the top three of your grade this time?"
Then several people started chatting and laughing together until class time, when they all went to the classroom together.
After entering the classroom, Yi Tiancai suddenly discovered that his seatmate had become another person... Dong Qian!
The introverted man who sat at the same table as himself before actually moved to Dong Qian's original seat.
"It's all over, it's all over, this girl seems to have some signs of being possessed by a demon!" As he walked to his seat, Yi Tian asked with a smile: "Hehe, how did you end up here?"
Dong Qian hummed softly, "Why can't I come here? There's no name written on this desk, from today on, we're going to be deskmates!"
"Welcome, welcome, but I'm worried that when I sleep, my hands and feet might not be honest and touch you by mistake, that would be a sin!" Yi Tian made a threatening expression with a sly smile.
"I don't care anymore, anyway I'm already yours, you have to take responsibility for me!"
As soon as Dong Qian's voice fell, the whole classroom was silent!
Yi Tian was stunned on the spot, this girl really dares to say anything! Is she doing it on purpose? At this time, Yi Tian didn't even know what to say to mediate the situation, and instead might make things worse.
There were still a few in the classroom who didn't forget to cheer, and Skinny Monkey was among them. From afar, he gave Yi Tian a thumbs up and looked over at him with eyes full of admiration, as if he had taken Yi Tian as his super idol.
When everyone's eyes turned to Yitian, he could only shake his head and smile wryly. After sitting down, he said in a low voice: "Dong Qian, stop joking around, I'm fine, but you're a girl, don't talk nonsense!"
Dong Qian shrugged and gazed forward, "Was what I said wrong? Do you dare say that nothing happened between us? Since we've done it, we should be brave enough to admit it! It seems like this is what you taught me, right?"
Many curious students pricked up their ears and soon spread the news, before long, the classroom was filled with a buzzing noise like that of bees.
Yi Tian was completely speechless, as if he had been defeated, and directly turned his back on Dong Qian and buried his face in the table.
"It's all over, this time I've really messed up big time... who can tell me what to do..." Yi Tian shouted in his heart.
Seeing Yi Tian's actions, Dong Qian smiled calmly and took out a beautifully packaged gift box from her backpack. She pushed it across the table to Yi Tian, "This is for you, see if you like it?"
Yi Tian suddenly stood up and turned around, asking in confusion: "What thing? You're not going to give me an engagement ring and ask me to marry you, are you?"
Dong Qian burst out laughing, "Alright, if you're willing, I'll buy you an engagement ring next time!"
"Never mind, I'll just finish college and become a Taoist priest. From then on, I won't be tainted by worldly affairs and will live out my life in the mountains and forests. It's likely that we two won't have any more fate with each other!"
Dong Qian's face changed instantly, and she clenched her fists, saying firmly: "Yi Tian, remember this, if you dare to become a Taoist priest, I'll become a nun. You'll never be able to shake me off for the rest of your life. I... I'm sticking with you!" As she spoke, Dong Qian's bright eyes sparkled with tears.
Seeing Dong Qian's appearance, Yi Tian suddenly fell silent, and instead stretched out his hand to take the gift box, opening it layer by layer, only to find a silver watch inside.
Yitian held the watch and looked at it for a long time, his heartbeat synchronized with the ticking sound of the pointer. Although calm, he couldn't hide the shock in his heart. As time passed second by second, he naturally put the watch on his wrist.
He looked at his watch for half a day and thought with emotion, "Tomorrow is still far away, because there are too many seconds in it. At that time, will you still be the same as you are now?"
At noon, Yi Tian Lian came to the antique street of Dongdajie Market without even eating lunch. He really didn't know how to face Dong Qian now. Dong Qian's words had caused a commotion in his heart that he had never experienced before. So, he decided to come out and get some fresh air to ease his mood.
He exchanged greetings with some familiar colleagues, put on his Taoist robe and crown from his backpack, and sat on a mat to watch the people coming and going in all shapes and colors.
Just as he saw an old blind man being supported by someone, he suddenly thought of Long Ao Tian. This master who had picked him up for nothing didn't know where he went to do something important and hadn't come back for such a long time.
Just then, a man in a gray jacket ran over from afar, with several bloodstains on his body, and even his face was bruised.
When he saw this person, Yi Tian felt familiar and thought for a moment before remembering the gray-clothed man he had met at the casino.
The man in grey clothes also discovered Yi Tian and rushed towards him like a madman, "Younger brother, help me out, I'm being chased to death!"
He saw the clothes in the backpack next to Yitian, and without hesitation, he put them on and sat down directly on the mat opposite Yitian, lowering his head as if calculating something.
Yi Tian didn't stop him either and even borrowed a hat from a fellow traveler beside him to hand it over to the other person.
"Thank you!" The man in gray hastily took the hat with his blood-stained hands and put it on.
At this time, a group of burly men with cruel faces ran over from afar, looked around and, not finding the person they were looking for, quickly ran towards an alley.
"Old brother, we really have a good fate, how about it? Want to see our horoscope? I'm quite accurate at reading them!" Yi Tian said with a smile.
The man in grey clothes asked somewhat anxiously: "Younger brother, have those people who were chasing me gone?"
Yi Tian nodded and casually asked: "Hehe, you didn't get caught cheating, did you?"
The man in grey was taken aback, blinking his eyes in puzzlement and asking, "How did you know?"
"Hehe, the heavenly secret cannot be revealed!"
The man in grey clothes smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, sorry about that, little brother. I don't know what's wrong with me today, my luck is really bad and I haven't won many rounds. Before I could even play a few hands, I was discovered by an expert! I didn't expect to run into you here, you're really a high-ranking person who doesn't show off. If I've offended you in any way before, please don't take it to heart!"
"Hey, it's all small stuff, forget about it." Yi Tian said calmly.
"Alright, here's my card. If you want to gather information in the future, look for me." He said, handing over a business card to Yi Tian.
The business card reads 'Du Song' and a pager number. Yi Tian asked: "Brother Du, what do you do?"
"I'm a 'bridge person' in the Sheng Feng Gang, which means I'm an outside connection for business. In our Sheng Feng Gang, as long as you're willing to spend money, there's nothing you can't find out!"
He looked around and changed the subject, saying in a low voice: "By the way, I have some news for you. You've already been targeted by two groups of people, and they're both investigating your background. The message has already been reported, so be careful."
"What? Investigate me? What's there to investigate?" Yi Tian was somewhat puzzled, but suddenly thought of a very likely person and frowned, asking: "Is it that casino boss Wang Jun investigating me?"
Du Song hesitated, "Ah, I can't say, if the news of 'Qizi' is exposed, and the door knows about it, I'll suffer three cuts and six holes! However, you can spend money to conduct a counter-investigation!"
"How can I believe what you're saying?" Yi Tian asked with a hint of inquiry in his tone.
Du Song smiled slightly, "Hehe, I knew you'd ask me that. Alright, I'll tell you, but don't mind, okay?" Seeing Yi Tian nod, he continued: "You're Yi Tian, living in Kao Shan Village, adopted by Old Man Xu, and recently became the apprentice of a blind old man, right? Do you want to hear more details?"
