Chapter 3 The Book That Won't Get Wet
As soon as the words were finished, the scene suddenly became extremely quiet. The young man's voice was not loud, but in the ears of everyone under his feet, it was like thunder rolling and extremely majestic.
"You...what do you want to do?" The man in black holding a dagger was the first person to come to his senses. He swallowed deeply and took a long time to temporarily suppress the unquenchable fear in his heart. He looked up at the man in the air and asked tentatively.
"Let them go, and you will never die." The young man's voice was calm and calm without any tone, but the man in black holding a dagger sounded full of deterrence. He could clearly feel that there seemed to be an indescribable pressure slowly coming towards him from all directions.
A moment later, just as the other party members in black watched felt that their leader chose to compromise this time, they heard a sentence that almost scared them.
"Want me to let them go?" The man in black holding a dagger suddenly regained his calm face. He sneered twice, then glanced at Hoffman's neck that had already oozed blood and said with a gloomy smile: "Even if you are Superman and can use strange spells, I'm not afraid of you. Judging from your appearance, you want to save this old guy, I don't believe you can be faster than my knife. Even if you die, I have a back cushion, it's worth it!"
I haven't taken any action for so long. It seems that you only know the strange spell like a fire ball just now. As long as this old thing is still under my knife, you can't help but save them from me. I have been waiting for this opportunity for more than ten years. Today I asked me to let go of the thing I have already obtained unless I am dead!
The man in black holding a dagger was even more proud when he saw that the young man had not replied. He firmly believed that the other party had compromised his tough attitude, and the expression on his face showed an undetectable smile. With Hoffman as a shield, he slowly retreated towards his companion, trying to evacuate the place in this safest position he thought. Seeing that the boss's words actually played a role, the big stone in his heart finally fell down safely, and he didn't say anything more. He turned around and came to the girl again, took out the rope and acted to go forward and tie it up.
But at this moment, the companion in the black who was facing their boss suddenly shook his body. Then the rope he grabbed in his hand fell to the ground. His hands without the rope did not pick up the rope on the ground, but kept trembling. Everyone was stunned by his sudden strange movement, and they turned their eyes to him, but saw a face that was scared by fear, the muscles on both sides of the corners of his eyes were still twitching slightly, and the mouth covered by the black cloth was shaking constantly. The pupils that had been magnified several times due to fear were completely protruding, and they looked really scary.
"Hey? What's wrong with you?"
"Brother, don't scare us!"
"It's not a seizure, is it?"
Several men in black who had a good relationship with him pulled his clothes while pushing him and asked questions. Seeing that the man still had no reaction at all, one of the tallest men in black was a little angry. He came to the back in two steps to punch him heavily, but when his hand was just clenching his fist gesture and wanted to punch him, his eyes subconsciously glanced in the direction of his companion in front of him, but he didn't expect to see the scene that made him gasp. His heart suddenly tightened, and a heart almost jumped out of his chest. The clothes on his back were completely wet in just a blink of an eye.
"Ah!?" The man's legs and feet fell heavily on the hard ground, and he forgot the pain. He pointed at his companion who was still confused and screamed in horror.
Seeing that the man who was the most tout and brave among them was scared to this point, the other men in black couldn't help but tremble in their hearts at the same time. A terrible thought arose in their hearts at the same time. Could it be that the boss is dead?
With this doubt, everyone swallowed deeply at the same time. After several deep breathing movements, they looked back with a slightly calmer mood.
"Old...Boss!"
"Boss!!!" No matter how many times the word "Boss" is said, it cannot express their mood that they have been occupied by fear at this moment. The tremor is the trembling from the depths of their souls. Until the last man in black was frightened and incontinent because of the incredible scene in front of her, the girl dared to open her eyes, but when she saw the man in black who had become an ice sculpture in front of her, she couldn't help but exclaim.
"Why don't you let this girl go?" It was not until the clear male voice that sounded from time to time in the air again came into the ears of the men in black that they came back to their senses from the shock just now and said nothing more. After getting up, they ran towards the woods on both sides. They were sometimes bumped into each other by two or three companions during the escape. They looked extremely embarrassed and ridiculous.
"Grandpa Hoffman!"
"Miss. You're fine, it's so good!"
When he saw the girl and the old man hugging each other deeply because of the joy of surviving the disaster, a hint of comforting smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He didn't plan to stay here for a long time, and turned around and wanted to break through the air in the direction behind him. However, the girl's voice suddenly rang in his ears: "Slow down! Can you tell me your name?"
"Qingchengzi! Girl, I no longer owe you anything, say goodbye!" After answering the girl's question, the young man turned around and made a goodbye gesture to the girl, then flew towards the distant sky, leaving only a white spot of light shining brightly in the dark night sky. Hoffman and the girl were fascinated. Perhaps they would never forget this night that they would never forget in their lives.
A few days later, in a Western restaurant in a big city outside the town, Qingchengzi was sitting leisurely in the window seat, slowly flipping through the Western menu in his hand. On the dining table, there was an ordinary book with a white cover. Although he was still dressed in the green Taoist robe that was incompatible with the surroundings, he was not inferior to any fashionable hot star in terms of attraction. The reason is still to blame his eyes, which were no longer slightly closed, but completely opened. When the waiter saw these eyes for the first time, they all felt like they were sucked by it. This was an ordinary but extraordinary pair of eyes, and the shape of the corners of the eyes was a typical Danfeng with low inner corners and high outer corners.
The eyes and eyes are the same as those of ordinary people. The most different thing is that Qingchengzi's eyes are extremely deep and extremely black, black without any impurities, so dark that it makes people dare not peek. Every female waiter who was looked at by Qingchengzi had a feeling that her mind was swallowed by her. It seemed that what they saw in their eyes was not a pair of eyes, but two bottomless black holes. Every time they looked at it for one more minute, they would feel that their souls seemed to be suddenly pulled away by them. It was not until they suddenly woke up and evacuated their eyes from Qingchengzi's eyes that they would be surprised to find that their foreheads were already filled with cold sweat.
"Sir, have you chosen the best dish?"
"Give me a fruit platter and add a cup of Blue Mountain coffee."
"Okay. Please wait." The waiter respectfully took the menu in Qingchengzi's hand and turned around and walked slowly towards the kitchen. After more than ten minutes, she walked over with a white porcelain tray the size of two palms, which was filled with a cup of coffee with a strong aroma.
"Well. It smells so good. Not bad, not bad." Qingchengzi, who had already smelled the aroma of coffee, couldn't stop nodding and complimenting. Unfortunately, when the waitress came to the Qingchengzi table four or five steps away, a man dining at Qingchengzi table suddenly touched the waitress's round thigh exposed under her short skirt.
"Ah!" The waiter screamed instinctively, and there was no way to shake when walking, which made the man who had just eaten her tofu more unrestrained and bold. This time, he actually squeezed the other person's buttocks hard after the waiter walked past him. Such excessive actions immediately attracted the contemptuous eyes of other guests around him.
"Oh!" A lot of tofu was suddenly eaten on his butt. The waitress suddenly felt a numbness in her whole body. She was not careful, and her legs did not stand firm and staggered forward a few steps. She actually completely poured the Blue Mountain Coffee that had just been brewed on Qingchengzi's table. When the brown water stains encountered the smooth white tabletop, they immediately spread out like a spider web, splashing the whole table with brown marks everywhere, which was extremely ugly.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I'll wipe it clean for you right away!" The girl who had never experienced this scene immediately turned pale. She finally got this job after three re-examinations. In order to continue her leisurely work here, the girl hurriedly bowed and apologized to Qingchengzi, and then took a rag from another table and quickly wiped the tabletop.
The girl was very young, but she worked very quickly, only ten seconds. The original brown water-covered desktop was immediately renovated under her Maili's work, turning into a spotless white desktop. However, when the girl wiped off the brown water-covered on the white book cover, she strangely discovered that there was no brown mark on the cover of the book. It seemed that the material of the cover of the book was like oil paper, which could be completely separated by water. However, after reading the cover of the book several times, she touched it with her hand several times, she was convinced that the cover of the book was the most ordinary paper. It was the first time she saw such a strange thing.
"Sir, your book is really strange! The coffee splashed on it and it didn't leave any marks, and the paper on the book cover didn't look wet at all. Why?" The girl asked curiously at Qingchengzi while looking at the book in her hand.
