Urban Feng Shui Master

Chapter 386
Afterwards, Yun San pulled out the pull plug on the grenade, counting in his mouth: "One, two, three..."

The detectives passed the injured Zhao Lei, Lao Ma leaned over to see his injury, and quickly followed his companion.

"Don't go there!" Zhao Lei pulled out the steel needle on his shoulder and shouted sharply, "Be careful..."

"Four!" Yun San smiled and glanced at Liu Ziheng, and accurately threw the high-explosive grenade at the running policeman.

Under the dazzling flash, there was a sudden explosion, and countless droplets fell from the sky. Liu Ziheng fell on the ground, and tasted a fishy and salty taste at the corner of his mouth.

In the distance, sirens blared, and several police cars roared towards the food warehouse area in the west of the city.

A young man looked at the passing police cars, looked back at the flashing lights in the distance, and sighed heavily.

"Where there are variables, there are victims."

……

On the table were two bottles of beer, a roast chicken, and two cooked dishes.

Lao Huo was sitting at the table, the chopsticks in his hands were motionless. Opposite him, Zeng Yifan was struggling with a chicken leg with his teeth grinning, and from time to time he picked up the wine glass beside him and drank sizzlingly.

It's not that the food is not to your appetite. For an old Jianghu like Lao Huo, there is no food that cannot be swallowed. He just has no appetite, and there is a strange feeling of fullness in his stomach, which makes him very uncomfortable.

Before Zeng Yifan came back, Lao Huo had been staring at the computer screen. Although the viewing angle was not very good, and the screen often had layers of frame skipping, he could still see everything that happened on the scene clearly.

Flashes, explosions, and corpses flying across the sky, even though he has traveled far and wide and seen many things in the world, he couldn't help but feel a little shocking when he saw them.

Miserable, indeed miserable enough.

After the explosion, some rolling and wriggling "things" appeared on the ground. Some were branches and twigs, and some were only a large piece. They had different shapes and moved strangely, and all of them dragged out dark spots of different sizes on the ground. trace.

When he saw this, Lao Huo couldn't help turning his face to the side. He knew that just a dozen seconds ago, these strange "things" were all lively young men, but in the blink of an eye they turned into this kind of Life is worse than death.

While forbearance, Lao Huo somewhat lamented, for a fortune teller, regardless of life, old age, sickness, and death, he should be able to see clearly. Besides, he had seen many similar scenes when he was young, and it seemed that it was not as good at that time. Now that I can't bear it, it seems that when I get old, my heart can no longer be hardened.

Compared to Lao Huo, Zeng Yifan seemed to see clearly, and even seemed a little heartless.

When Zeng Yifan came in from the door with big bags and small bags, Lao Huo described the situation to him, Zeng Yifan just nodded, went to the computer and played the transcribed video, and then ran away as if nothing happened Put the cooked vegetables in a pot, pour beer, and greet Lao Huo to start the meal.

cold blooded!This word popped up in Lao Huo's mind involuntarily.

"What, the food doesn't suit your appetite?" After killing the chicken legs with all his strength, Zeng Yifan took a sip of beer, "Old Huo, don't be hungry, we still have a lot of things to do."

"The food is good, but I can't eat it." Lao Huo sighed and put down his chopsticks, "Those policemen, it's too miserable..."

When he said the word "miserable", Lao Huo deliberately dragged his voice a long time, looked at Zeng Yifan, and did not continue speaking.In fact, he didn't have any special meaning in doing this, he just subconsciously wanted to see Zeng Yifan's reaction.

Zeng Yifan smiled, as if he had expected the continuation of Lao Huo's words, but he didn't answer Lao Huo's words, he just wiped his oily mouth, stood up, and walked to the window.

The atmosphere in the room became dull, Lao Huo still stared at Zeng Yifan persistently, but didn't say anything, but now he could only see his back.

"Those people..." Lao Huo sighed, and finally couldn't help breaking the silence, "You could have saved them."

"I know." Zeng Yifan nodded, "However, I chose to stand by and let them be killed, wounded, and maimed."

His tone seemed very understated, as if he was describing an innocuous matter.

"Maybe I'm old and I can't bear to see these horrible scenes." Lao Huo shook his head in disappointment and said with a lonely expression.

"Are you trying to say, I'm cruel?"

"Cruel? Hehe, I don't know if this is considered cruel." Lao Huo smiled wryly, "I'm just a little confused. As divination, what is our value?"

"The first time I asked you for help was in Fancheng, do you remember?" Zeng Yifan walked to the computer, and fixed the video on the scene of Zhao Lei and Liu Ziheng confronting each other, staring at the two in a daze.

"At that time, in order to save that policeman, what was your name Guan Chengjie?"

"This policeman, in fact, is as good as Guan Chengjie." Zeng Yifan shook his head slightly, "And, if it is destined, he should take over Guan Chengjie's position after Guan Chengjie's death. But..."

"But because of your intervention, Guan Chengjie survived several times, and he has been living under Guan Chengjie's shadow." Lao Huo seemed to understand something.

Zeng Yifan nodded.

"But even so, what does it have to do with whether you save those people?" Old Huo pointed at the computer screen.The past is the past, but the present is the present.

"Old Huo, I always thought that you, as the direct descendant of Dao divination, chose to live in seclusion because you have seen through the cause and effect, but I didn't expect you still didn't see through." Zeng Yifan sighed, "In order to get the key to the dragon lock, I rescued you several times. Guan Chengjie, who should have sacrificed with honor. In fact, Guan Chengjie was destined to die young, and Liu Ziheng will succeed him and become another excellent policeman. However, I made a move to save Guan Chengjie, and also cut off Liu Ziheng's path to promotion. I even set up a trap with my own hands to completely destroy him. If it wasn't for this, he wouldn't hate me so much, let alone cooperate with Yun San and the others, and there wouldn't be this explosion. Then In the same way, if I prevented the explosion, maybe these dozen people would not be killed or injured, but would it plant a bigger bomb and kill more people in the future?"

After saying this, Zeng Yifan fell silent.

At this moment, Lao Huo completely lost the indignation towards Zeng Yifan just now, replaced by an inexplicable sympathy.

Predicting the future, seeking good luck and avoiding bad luck, these words have been inseparable from divination for thousands of years. For a divination, perhaps it is not how to predict people's fate that is important.

Lao Huo nodded, and said with emotion, "Maybe we should really let nature take its course."

"There is no 'maybe' in this world, only results full of variables." Zeng Yifan raised his head and recovered his calm expression, "And what we have to do now is to try our best to control this variable so that the result is not too bad .”
