Chapter 7, Dong Sanpao's Black Box
When I was seven years old, I raised my head and saw the second uncle at that moment with the faint candlelight. His face was full of sorrow. He stood at the door of the attic and looked at me. After sighing deeply, he said, "Lin'er, your mother answered the phone call. She said she didn't care about you, you should make your own decisions. This damn girl! I don't know if it's her biological seed! Don't worry, I will call my brother again, he will definitely not let you go..."
Before the second uncle could finish his words, he saw me standing up silently, lowering his head, and clenching his fists tightly. In the fire, I could vaguely see tears rolling in my eyes. Since I was a little sensible, I realized that my father was letting go of me, and my mother only provided me with food and clothing. I never cared about me, wouldn’t look at my homework, wouldn’t play with me, wouldn’t ask if I was cold, or wouldn’t care whether I was happy. (Good novel)
Just as the second uncle said, I didn’t give birth to her. I once asked her why, but she just gave birth to a disgusting look. She is my biological mother, but like her stepmother, she always attends parent-teacher meetings when she was studying. Many children laughed at me, saying that the second uncle is my biological father, and even joked about me as a wild child I picked up.
Such memories have been lingering around me.
Even though I was only seven years old, I still understood what my mother meant, and the little stubbornness in my heart began to burn like a fire. At that moment, that night, in the faint candlelight, I suddenly raised my head and shouted in my still tender voice: "I'll go to Beijing!"
The matter of going to Beijing has been decided. The second uncle and Li Saner began to arrange the matter of going to Beijing, and I was taken by Li Feng to the Gulou District of Tianjin, where he was going to meet an old friend, a man named Dong Sanpao.
Of course, Dong Sanpao’s name is not his real name, but a nickname he got when he was walking in the circle. He is a fellow disciple of Li Feng, and his skills are not as good as Li Feng, but he has been in the circle for longer than Li Feng, and he is an image similar to a gangster in the world.
Tianjin Gulou District, near the Northern Antique City, this area was still very lively in the 1990s. There were calligraphy and painting antique shops on the streets. When we went there it was noon the next day. There were not many people on the way. Li Feng took me into an old shop called "Deshunchang". It was high terraces and large wooden tables. At first glance, it looked like the dress and decorations of ancient times.
"This is an old teahouse. The shopkeeper is my old friend. Dong Sanpao is upstairs. Come with me."
Following Li Feng all the way upstairs, he stopped at the door of the first private room on the left. Before we could open the door, a man's voice came from inside, and he whispered: "But Brother Yun is here? I'm inside, come in."
The voice was quite rough, and the confidence in this shout was very strong, as if someone was shooting a cannon in my ear.
When I pushed the door open and saw that the person sitting in the private room was a round fat man wearing an old black leather jacket, a buzz cut, small eyes, and a string of shiny Buddhist beads on his hands.
I just took a look and felt a shrewd aura exuding Dong Sanpao's body.
"Brother Yun is here, sit down, what tea do you want to drink? Dahongpao here is good."
Dong Sanpao seemed very attentive to greet us and sat down, but his eyes fell on me and paused for a moment, and asked strangely: "What is this child?"
Li Feng simply said: "It was the one I found for the master. For that matter, you should know."
Dong Sanpao seemed to wake up immediately and glanced at me deeply. There was an indescribable feeling in his eyes. It felt like he was looking at an object, not like he was looking at a person.
"What's the matter with me?"
Li Feng doesn't seem to like his senior brother very much, and he is a little impatient when talking.[
"Before you say it, you can take a look at this thing."
While speaking, Dong Sanpao took a square box from him, with a black wooden base, and there was no sign of anything inside, but two pieces of yellow paper were sealed at the opening of the box.
"What is this?"
I asked strangely, but although I was curious, I didn't reach out to lift the yellow paper on the opening. I looked at Li Feng with a gaze, but saw Li Feng's brow frowned slightly and asked in a low voice: "Where did you find this thing?"
Dong Sanpao smiled and said, "About three months ago, I went to Hong Kong to help a wealthy businessman see his fate. When I came back, I visited near the Tiger and Leopard Villa and found it in a bush. I immediately sealed it up. You probably saw the things in it. It's not simple. Moreover, I know that you have been looking for this thing for a long time, so I'll ask you to take a look."
Li Feng frowned even more, but the fat man Dong Sanpao on the opposite side revealed a hint of pride between his eyebrows.
"Tell me clearly, you are also a guy who can't get up early without profit. I definitely want this thing. What do you want me to exchange for you?"
Li Feng's tone sounded a little quick, which made me even more curious about what was hidden in this box.
"Okay, you and I are both fate masters, and I came from the same school, so I said it straightforwardly. Three months ago, I showed the fate of the Hong Kong rich businessman. This rich businessman was called Rong Guohua. In fact, what I saw was not his fate, but his son's fate. His son was eight years old, but he has been weak since childhood. No matter how he replenished his body, he was weak. After seeing his fate, I found that he was born sick and covered his body. The essence of the five meridians was insufficient, which was caused by his bad fate. So, I hope brother, you can help me and change your life for this child!"
As soon as these words were said, Li Feng's face immediately became extremely serious and shouted: "Dong Sanpao, if you are a life master, do you still need my help in changing your life? Moreover, don't forget the rules set by the master back then. First, don't change the life of the rich, second, don't change the life of the evil, third, don't change the life of the hero. The rich businessman in Hong Kong you mentioned has probably agreed to you a lot of benefits, but I won't do this bad rule, so you should find someone else."
Li Feng refused Dong Sanpao's request on the spot, and pulled me up immediately, but then walked to the door. Dong Sanpao pulled the lid of the teapot and said calmly: "Only we brothers know what happened in Yangmingshan, Taiwan that year. Only a few of us know about you and the white fox. In a blink of an eye, five or six years have passed. You have been to Yangmingshan several times, but you have not seen the white fox back then. What I put in my box may be your last clue, I ask you to call you junior brother. Junior brother, if you walk out of this door, you may have broken the last clue."
I didn't understand what Dong Sanpao said at that time, but I could hear a sense of threat. However, Li Feng really didn't step out of the door. He turned around and asked in a deep voice: "What kind of life do the Hong Kong rich businessman want to exchange for his son?"
Dong Sanpao laughed at this time, walked over with the box, and whispered: "The army bows down, the dragon of the sky, he wants to change his son's fate to a general."
As soon as these words came out, Li Feng opened his eyes suddenly and grabbed Dong Sanpao's arm and shouted: "Are you telling me a joke? The three destinies in the world, the destiny of the emperor, the destiny of the general, and the prime minister. These three destiny are not easy to find. Moreover, people with these three destiny are not ordinary people, they are all nobles and even people in our circle. If you ask me to change the destiny of the general, where can we find it? Even if we really find it, can we deal with others?"
Dong Sanpao was probably scratched by Li Feng and hurt. He shook his head slightly, pushed Li Feng's arm away and said, "Junior brother, don't worry, I didn't do anything. Rong Guohua has money and resources. He sent people to search all over China early in the morning, and he has found more than one life master. He had already had some clues before seeing me. Recently, in Tianjin, there was a man named Wang Liang. This man had a son a month ago. Before the son was born, Wang Liang's wife dreamed of Canglong dreaming for seven consecutive nights. The child cried more than an ordinary child after birth. Now he has been a month old, and he can crawl on the ground and his strength is much greater than that of an ordinary child. In my guess, this child should be the dream of a general. If it is true, then I can get rich, and you can get clues from the white fox. Isn't this a good thing at the best of both worlds?"
After Dong Sanpao said something, Li Feng was silent for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "I need some time to prepare an ordinary fate for this newborn. At least three days, at least seven days, I will take the general's life on this child."
When Dong Sanpao saw Li Feng agreeing to this matter, he immediately smiled and laughed: "Okay, very good! Junior brother, I will feel relieved if you take action. Then I will give you a present on behalf of Mr. Rong Guohua here, thank you. Don't worry. In three days, he will bring his children to Tianjin. Then after you succeed, you will still be in this teahouse. At that time, I will naturally present this box with both hands and will never miss the debt."
Li Feng nodded and pulled me out of the door. But when he went out, I heard him say coldly to Dong Sanpao: "Don't call me junior brother in the future. You were expelled from the mountain by your master five years ago!"
