Chapter 046
My body suddenly shuddered, as if I had just woken up from a dream, and then I suddenly found that Ziran was still standing in front of the mirror at the door, with his hand touching the mirror. It felt as if time had suddenly stopped. Lu Yao and I had not even reached the restaurant yet. Everything I had just experienced seemed like an illusion, just a daydream.
There were still those water-like ripples on the mirror, but as I woke up, the ripples gradually subsided. I saw myself in the mirror, my face was pale, and sweat was dripping from my temples. It was as if I had just been hacked to death.
Lu Yao looked at me strangely and asked what was wrong with me.
I wiped the sweat from the corners of my eyes and subconsciously asked her where she got the mirror.
Lu Yao said, "This mirror has been in my home since I was born. It has been there for many years. My father occasionally takes it out to clean it, as if he is afraid that it will break if left alone."
My heartbeat suddenly slowed down, and I felt that these words were exactly the same as in the previous hallucination. If you say that what I just saw has nothing to do with the current situation, I will never believe it!
As expected, Lu Yao reached out and touched the mirror, but this time I didn't stop her. She withdrew her hand, turned around and prepared to take me to the restaurant.
But this time I didn't move. I still stood in front of the mirror, just looking at this strange mirror, my hands and feet were cold. I thought to myself, could this be another ghost sign? The situation I just saw was much more dangerous than before. If things develop like that, then I will really die!
But one thing that surprised me was that I was clearly not asleep. It felt like as soon as my hand touched the mirror, in that brief moment, I saw what would happen in the future.
I had so many thoughts in my mind that I even considered turning around and leaving. Lu Yao took a few steps forward and found that I was standing there without moving. She turned around in confusion and asked me, "Tan Xi, what's wrong with you? Are you leaving?"
I didn't say anything, my mind was racing. I looked back at the road I had just come from, and if I ran now, it would be difficult for them to catch me.
But then I thought, Lin Tian is still staying in his home hospital. If I run away, before I can take him away from the hospital, who knows what might happen during this period of time.
I looked at Lu Yao. Although she had no involvement in what I just saw, and was not even aware of it, I felt that she was like a guide, leading me step by step into a death trap. I realized that I couldn't leave like this, at least not before confirming Lin Tian's safety.
I thought about it for a while, but still couldn't come up with a solution. I could only force myself to calm down and follow Lu Yao's footsteps, planning to find a solution during this time.
Lu Yao raised his eyebrows in confusion, looked at me curiously, and said, Tan Xi, are you feeling unwell, or is the wound on your head too painful?
I forced a smile and said, "I want to go to the bathroom. Can you take me downstairs?"
Lu Yao smiled and said, "I thought it was something else. Let's go. It's right in front."
I followed her and looked at this woman who was completely different from her father. A feeling of compassion suddenly welled up in my heart.
When we got to the bathroom, I told Lu Yao to wait for me. She smiled and said yes, and then I went in.
I hid inside and took out a cigarette to smoke, trying to calm myself down. But the more I thought about it, the more anxious I became. Finally, I took out my cell phone, found Lin Tian's number and called him. But the line beeped a few times and no one answered. I didn't know if Lin Tian fell asleep and couldn't hear the phone, or if something else had happened. I was very anxious. I called three or four times in a row, and the result was the same.
I had no choice but to hear Lu Yao shouting from outside, "Tan Xi, are you okay? It's been so long."
I responded with an “ah”, then thought about it and called Lu Yao directly.
I don't know what she thought when she saw my call, but fortunately the call was connected. She was about to speak, but I took the lead and said, Luyao, don't say anything. Just listen to me.
I don't know if my actions with her will be monitored, but this is the safest way. Lu Yao hesitated for a while on the other end of the phone before saying "hmm".
I said, I feel very bad, something might happen soon, can you help me find someone to check on Lin Tian? It would be best to transfer him to another hospital now!
She asked in surprise why he did that, he was fine when he left, what happened? If you don't explain clearly, I won't help you, you still have a lot of answers to give me.
I was so anxious that I couldn't say your dad might want to kill me! I thought about it for a while. After all, our medical expenses hadn't been paid yet. It was hard to explain why I just left like that. I had no choice but to take the risk and fight!
I said to Lu Yao, when you meet your father later, he might talk about my grandfather and ask me to help you with the Feng Shui of your family. Do you believe it?
Lu Yao was surprised and said, "My father believes in these things, but how do you know?"
I said don't worry about how I know it, anyway, he might tell me later, the key point is that he will mention my grandfather, remember this. If he really does this, then you have to help me confirm Lin Tian's situation, and you can't let your father know!
Lu Yao was silent for a long time, probably studying the meaning behind my words. After waiting for a while, I heard her say, "Okay, I promise you, if you really have this ability to predict the future, I would really like to see it."
After that, I hung up the phone, but I couldn't let go of my worries. I walked out of the bathroom anxiously and looked at Lu Yao outside the door. She didn't say anything, but her eyes became serious when she looked at me.
I said let's go, your father is waiting for us.
We walked all the way to the front of the restaurant, pushed open the door, and Lu Yao's father stood up with a smile on his face and greeted us. I looked at his smiling face and felt a chill in my heart. I felt as if this man was wearing a mask, and the face under the mask was ugly and terrifying.
I had been hoping that the scene just now would not happen, after all, it was different from the previous ghost omen, but after we sat down, Lu Yao's father began to open the curtain. Every word he said was exactly the same as what I had seen before.
When he mentioned my grandfather, Lu Yao was obviously stunned for a moment, and looked at me with wide eyes. I smiled and responded to her father, but my hand was hidden under the table to send her a message, asking her to check on Lin Tian's situation!
In just a few seconds, Lu Yao 's phone alert sounded. She looked at the text message, then looked at me, and then stood up silently.
Father Lu looked at her strangely and asked Xiaoyao what was wrong?
Lu Yao smiled slightly, covering up the past well, and said, "Dad, there is a small matter in the hospital. I'll go out and make a phone call. You and Tan Xi can talk first."
His father nodded and said, "Come in quickly." Then he turned his head again, facing me, and asked, "Tan Xi, where were we just talking about?" Oh, right, we were talking about your grandfather helping my family with the layout.
I was waiting for news from Lu Yao and just wanted to delay time as much as possible. I laughed and said, "Uncle Lu, although I am not as capable as my grandfather, I still know something about Feng Shui layout."
He seemed to be surprised by what I said. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Oh? You have also done some research. It seems that you have lived up to your grandfather's reputation. Come on, tell me, what is the layout of my house like?"
I recalled the previous conversation and said in a pretentious manner, "As for me, actually, as soon as I came to this house, I wanted to leave immediately. This place looks like a very bad layout! People who live in it are bound to suffer from disasters and misfortunes, and someone might even die if things go wrong."
Mr. Lu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said, "That's impossible. Look at my family. Although we're not rich, it's pretty good."
I thought to myself that this old guy was still pretending to be nice to me. It was obvious that he wanted to hear me continue talking to see if what I said was accurate.
I continued, "Yes, then I changed my mind and felt that your family situation was really not suitable for this house, so I resisted the urge to come in and take a look. As soon as I got to the door, I understood."
Mr. Lu put his hands together in front of his chest and asked me with a smile, "What do you understand?"
I said I saw a mirror there, and it was extremely ominous, with a very strong evil energy that was rare. It was because of it that the evil energy in the house was washed away and turned into a place of great fortune!
Mr. Lu smiled and didn't say whether what I said was right or not, but I could clearly see the joy in his eyes getting brighter.
Just at this moment, my phone rang, and I looked down and found it was a text message from Lu Yao. As soon as I clicked on it, Lu Yao pushed the door open and walked in, smiled at her father, and said that it was okay, it was just that an intern nurse was nervous when giving an injection, which made the patient unhappy.
His father smiled at him and said that it was okay.
I looked at the text message on my phone and frowned. Lu Yao said that someone claiming to be Lin Tian's father had just helped him to complete the transfer procedures and even paid for the surgery.
I thought to myself that this was not good. Maybe it was really Lin Tian’s father who took him away. If that was true, Lin Tian was still being kept in the dark by his father and I wonder if there would be other things going on.
But compared to the current situation, I still felt relieved. As long as Lin Tian didn't fall into their hands, I would have some confidence in escaping by myself.
I winked at Lu Yao and sent a text message back. This girl actually learned to be smart. She turned off the sound of her phone and then lowered her head slightly to take a look. But her face immediately changed and she looked at me in disbelief. I told her, your father wants to kill me!
