I stared at the mobile phone in my hand, smiled in my heart, and said to myself: Old fox, God is not as good as man, I have not thought about you at all in the past six months.

But the astrolabe is still very important. I know this very well. I had no choice but to dial the old fox's phone. After many rings, an old voice came from the other side.

I told him about what happened six months ago in general and in detail.

"Huh? Did they attack you? It seems that I was right. You are indeed very precious to everyone.", the old fox said angrily.

"Old man, don't flatter me, it's useless. It's been half a year, but you have found both of those things?" I went straight to the point.

"It's destiny, I think I've got it, but you don't have to think about it. Come and see it now. Before you complete your mission, you don't have any chips to exchange with me," the old fox replied calmly.

This old guy didn't even give me a chance to open my mouth.

"That place cannot be entered by one person. You are asking me to die! Or, I may have other items on my hand that you care more about. I think they are enough to exchange for what you have." , I'm still fighting for it.

"Young man, we promised each other to perform our duties half a year ago, and my duties have been completed. Now, it's up to you." After saying that, the old **** hung up the phone on me immediately.

Am I still going to take risks to fulfill my promise in exchange for the astrolabe and the ancient ring?

This is a question I want to think about immediately.

Wang Meng walked in with a half bottle of Shikumen. He seemed stunned when he saw the door open. Then he put the wine on the guest table and walked towards me with his head lowered.

"Where are you going?", I asked calmly. I didn't mind that he was carelessly guarding the store. In fact, this was the first time that my boss had stepped into the store in half a year.

"Boss, um... I have to tell you something. Just take it easy after listening to it." Wang Meng did not answer me, but instead took the topic in another direction.

"Boss, my dad asked a friend to find a public institution for me. I paid the trustee's money and the matter was completed. I was asked to go to work next week. You know, I am the only one in our family. Miao'er, they all hope that I can make a difference." Wang Meng said after a pause.

"I used to learn a lot from you when I followed you, but over the past few years, I have spent less time seeing you..."

I understood what Wang Meng meant, so I naturally said some unnecessary words such as that since I couldn’t save him, I hoped he would have a good future. While I was in the hospital, I also thought about temporarily closing the store. , for me, the way out is very simple, either go straight to Banai and solve the mystery in my heart, or close the shop and never get involved in the field of dealing with soil. After all, I still have enough money to spend, as long as I don’t waste money like my third uncle. That’s it.

Immediately, he said some more sincere words to Wang Meng, picked up the Shikumen on the table, and drank a few sips, which was extremely satisfying.

He also told me that he had a new girlfriend, she was very beautiful, he was very satisfied, his expression was very happy, and he was beaming as he spoke.

I am also very happy. After all, we have been together for so many years, and we have some feelings. For Wang Meng, he is like his own little brother, very deep, but very dull.

I happily made an agreement with Wang Meng to settle the salary the day after tomorrow. At the same time, maybe because I was a little drunk, I promised him a good amount of bonus.

Looking at Wang Meng walking out of the store overjoyed, I felt empty in my heart.

I sat back in the inner room, put aside the matters about the king alliance and the store, and calmed my mind. The promise I made to the old fox weighed on my heart like a mountain, and I wandered around. Half a year passed. , many things are gradually fading away, and I am no longer as persistent in the truth I pursue as before. Now, I am more calm and can see problems more clearly.

I never fully believe what the old fox said. Even if everything that happens is going in the right direction, between my friends and him, I am still willing to believe in Xiaohua and Xiuxiu. .

Half a year has passed, and it’s time for me to make a call to the two people in Beijing.

Many times, the phone is a tool for casually scolding each other and making fun of each other. But sometimes, the phone, which is famous for being thin and light, is extremely heavy.

Xiuxiu called Xiuxiu several times, but no one answered;

But it was still a matter of brotherhood. Xiaohua picked up the phone as soon as it rang, but Xiaohua never spoke.

After listening for a while, the other party still didn’t mean to speak. I couldn’t hold it any longer.

"Xiaohua, no matter what happened before, maybe it doesn't matter anymore. I no longer care so persistently. Now, it's just a phone call from a friend. So, can you talk?" I lowered my voice and said very calmly.

There was still silence, but not long after, Xiaohua's voice came over.

"Mistress, there are many things that you can't ignore just because you want to forget them. Xiuxiu... Well, she is in Hangzhou. Take good care of her for a while. She needs our help. The phone is inconvenient. I will call you again. ". After saying that, he hung up the phone.
