Chapter 18 The Danger of Crossing

"Master Tian, ​​what do you think of the taste?"

Li Xiu knew that no matter how much everyone likes to eat, Tian Buyi is the one who finally decides whether to start this business, so Tian Buyi's opinion is the most important at this time.

"Well, I've never eaten this kind of thing before. It's really delicious. Xiao Li, what kind of precious food are you bringing here? With this thing, I won't make a lot of money. Hahaha Haha. Good, good, great."

Tian Buyi smiled and narrowed his eyes into a thin line.

"Okay, then let's finish today's hot pot and start preparing the ingredients and ingredients accordingly. After we are ready, in two days, head Tian can invite several other heads of Fengmai to come and try it. , can be regarded as publicity, and then wait for everyone to come to the door."

So throughout the whole day, the whole Dazhufeng was busy, everyone was preparing various things according to their duties, Li Xiu also told Xiaofan about the heat and skills needed for frying ingredients, and then told Tian Linger He and Song Daren how to prepare fresh ingredients, how to marinate meat products first, how to make hot pot noodles with sweet potatoes, how to slice potatoes and lotus root, how to grow coriander by yourself, etc.
But Tian Buyi and Suru have a more important job, which is pricing. Li Xiu doesn't know much about the consumption level here, so this job can only be decided by Tian Buyi and Suru themselves.

Unknowingly, the moon rose, and the two original student bedrooms in Dazhufeng had been transformed into a hot pot restaurant. There were two rooms in total, and a dozen tables.

Li Xiu is just the most ordinary professional worker in the modern world, but he unexpectedly experienced the feeling of being a leader when he came here.He likes people in this world more and more.

He suddenly had an idea, what would happen if he just stayed in this world? If he didn't go back, it would be nice to stay here with Zhiyue when he resurrected, so he wanted to give it a try and not go back today , although he heard from the owner of the rare goods store that no matter how many times he goes back and forth every day, he must return to the modern age before twelve o'clock at night, otherwise bad things will happen.

But what the bad thing was, the boss didn't say a word.

So Li Xiu was going to give it a try.

"Brother Li Xiu, it's so late today, and you are tired, how about resting with us today and going home tomorrow?"

"Okay."

Li Xiu readily agreed.

So that night, everyone fell asleep after a busy day like this.

At dawn on the second day, Zhang Xiaofan got up and started to practice kung fu. Although he said he had to do business, he couldn't escape Qimai Huiwu.

After practicing, Xiaofan went back to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the big guys. After finishing his work, he was going to invite Li Xiu out for dinner.

"Brother Li Xiu, are you up? I've made breakfast, would you like to come out and eat with us?"

"Brother Li Xiu?"

Zhang Xiaofan gently knocked on the door but no one responded, he felt strange.

When he gently opened the door, he was instantly dumbfounded. The person lying on the bed, where was Li Xiu, who was in his early thirties, was clearly an 80-year-old man.White hair and wrinkled face.

"Old man, old man, what's wrong with you, old man, wake up!"

Zhang Xiaofan rushed to the bed, calling for the old man.

The old man on the bed slowly opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Xiaofan blankly.

"Xiaofan, what are you calling, old gentleman? I am your brother Xiu."

Li Xiu said slowly.

"What?! How is it possible, you, you are Brother Xiu, Brother Xiu, why are you like this, you, your face?"

Li Xiu seemed to sense something, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose.

"What's wrong with me?"

Li Xiu touched his face with his hands, and the touch was full of old people's wrinkles. When he raised his hands, he saw that his hands were covered with age spots.

Li Xiu wanted to rush to the mirror and look at himself immediately, but he found that his hands and feet were not obeying him at all. He could not rush over as he thought, so he could only stand up slowly and walk over slowly, and his waist could not be straight. When I got up, my legs felt weak.

When he came to the mirror and saw his own appearance, he was instantly like a thunderclap.

Others didn't know what happened, but Li Xiu knew very well that this was the bad thing the boss said. At the moment when Li Xiu was in a trance, he felt dizzy, and his body seemed to be getting old again. He felt that his heart was Beating hard, breathing hard, he didn't know what to do.

The others heard the noise and rushed over. When they saw Li Xiu in such a situation, they were all dumbfounded.

"Hurry, send him back to his world quickly, it's too late. He will die of old age."

Tian Linger looked at Li Xiu's appearance, and instantly remembered that Zhiyue had a similar situation. She was too tired last night, so she went to rest after finishing her work. She didn't expect that Li Xiu would not leave the Big Bamboo Peak.

"Oh...well...quick...quick...Brother Li Xiu, I'll carry you on my back."

Hearing the sound, Zhang Xiaofan immediately put Li Xiu on his back and ran down the mountain, fortunately even if his martial arts were not good enough, he still had some distance on his feet, and soon he came to the gate of the mountain with Li Xiu on his back, so he quickly helped Li Xiu to walk to him The doorway that deliveries pass through.

At this moment, Li Xiu couldn't finish a sentence, his body was aging too fast, and at this moment he looked like a person who was about to die of old age.

But no matter what, his willpower is telling him that he can't die, no one can save Zhiyue after he dies, he still has his plan unfinished, he still has his career unfinished, he doesn't want to die. Willing to end his life like this, he wants to live.

So with the remaining physical strength, he struggled to breathe and panted, and crawled through the door.

The moment he passed through the door, he stopped breathing almost at the same time. The owner of the odd goods store rushed upstairs when he heard the sound. Seeing Li Xiu collapsed on the ground, he instantly understood what had happened.

So the boss immediately helped him up, and found that he was no longer breathing, like... like... dead...
"Hey, hey, Li Xiu, Li Xiu, wake up."

The boss slapped his face and shouted at him.

"Uh...cough cough..."

After Li Xiu took a deep breath, he coughed violently.

He reached out and grabbed the boss's collar, and asked with a look of horror:

"I...am I dead, am I dead..."

"Whether you will die or not, I don't know, I only know you... you... then... no... let go... I'm going to be strangled to death by you."

The boss said with difficulty while shaking Li Xiu's hand.

"I'm not dead yet, hahaha, I'm not dead yet."

When Li Xiu realized that he was still alive, he was ecstatic, but suddenly he raised his hand to touch his face again, and found that the touch had returned to the skin state when he was young, so he immediately got up and rushed to the bathroom, and saw in the mirror As expected, I returned to my 30s appearance, so I felt relieved.

"Hehe, if you come back a little later, I don't think even the gods can save you. You say you are too, and I remind you not to think about staying there or spending the night there. If you don't believe me, you have to try it. This You must have tasted the bitterness."

The boss looked at Li Xiu's appearance and said sarcastically.

"You old man, knowing this is the result, why didn't you remind me earlier, and insisted on letting me suffer this crime. If something really happens to me, can your conscience be at ease?"

Li Xiu said angrily.

"Hey, I said you kid is really kind-hearted. I guard this door. There are always things I can say and some things I can't say. I can remind you that you have taken a risk. If you don't thank me, you have to challenge it yourself. , I knew earlier that I would ignore you, you said you are a real person."

The boss complained a bit.

"Okay...okay...thank you, it's alright, anyway, I'm also the one who came back from Lord Yan, so don't get angry with me, okay?"

After Li Xiu came back to his senses, he still thanked the boss from the bottom of his heart, and thanked him for reminding him.

"So, no matter when I go to destroy that world, I have to return to my own era before twelve o'clock, otherwise my body will rapidly fail. If I die in that world, then in this world The world is tantamount to death."

After Li Xiu calmed down, he analyzed.

"It looks like this, so you have to remember that you must come back before twelve o'clock no matter what. Although you are fierce and have a weird temper, I still don't want you to die because of my baby."

"Okay... you should take a rest quickly, what the hell are you doing running there all day long?"

"I, to tell you the truth, I originally wanted to open a courier company and let the people over there come over and help me deliver the courier or something, but then I found out that they might expose you as a treasure by coming here, so I canceled it." This idea, but I am going to open a hot pot restaurant with them in Dazhufeng, and I was busy with them there yesterday."

"I sent the hot pot ingredients from here to the other side and taught them how to do it. I asked them to try it yesterday, and they were very satisfied."

Li Xiu was very satisfied with his thoughts, so he said proudly.

"Hey, you kid, you'll get beaten for nothing if you cooperate with me. But having said that, your idea is still good. I still hope you can succeed. I won't share the money with you, but there are still people who need help. You can tell me and I can help you come up with ideas. Although you have a bad temper, you are also a person who values ​​love and justice, and it is also for your lover."

"Seeing you like this reminds me of my own wife. She used to suffer a lot for me. Seeing that life is getting better, but he... hey..."

The boss said, with tears in his eyes.

"So, Xiao Li, I really hope that you and that girl will not have any regrets."

"Thank you, boss."

After returning home, Li Xiu was exhausted and paralyzed, so he quickly lay down on the bed to rest.

"Husband, husband, wake up..."

"Paper Moon...Paper Moon...is that really you? Have you come back?"

"Husband, you have worked hard, I miss you very much, do you miss me?"

"Zhiyue, of course I miss you, what happened to you?"

"Honey, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kept it from you, I... I'm delivering goods to a world called Zhu Xian, I really don't want you to work so hard, I want to help you share it."

"I know, I don't blame you, but are you really dead? Or is there some ulterior reason, why do I always feel that your death is not easy?"

"I found a key, and I was looking for the owner of the key, but before I could find the person, I got into a car accident. I don't know if it's related."

"What key? Where is it?"

"It's a whistle. I gave it to you. Husband, I'm so scared. I'm locked in a very dark place. I really want to go home. Husband, please help me."

"Paper Moon, Paper Moon, don't go, I still have a lot of questions I want to ask you...Don't go, Paper Moon...Paper Moon..."

Suddenly Li Xiu woke up. It turned out to be a dream, but it was a very real dream. He suddenly remembered something, so he immediately got out of bed, opened the drawer, and saw the whistle-shaped pendant. It turned out to be real. Tommy is back.

He said he was locked in a very dark place, he said it was because she picked up a key and something happened.

"Oops, I forgot to ask her the phone password."

Li Xiu suddenly thought of this important matter, and felt lost for a while.

After simply washing up for a while, Li Xiu didn't want to stay in the empty home, so he walked out of the house, wandering in the street when the lights were on, lost in the crowd, where should he go, he had no direction, why did these strange things happen to him He just wanted to be an ordinary person and spend his whole life with his lover. Originally, they planned to save some money and have a child this year, but everything has changed now.

Watching the people coming and going on the street, watching them
The bustling streets echoed with their favorite song "I came to your city and walked the way you came. I imagined how lonely you would be without me... would you It won’t appear suddenly, in the coffee shop on the corner..."

After wandering around for a while, having a casual meal, Li Xiu returned home and began to think about the way to go next.

He used to think that as long as he opened a hot pot restaurant and had money, he would be able to find a way to revive the paper moon, but now it seems that he can only travel to and from the world of Jade Immortals for one day. This time limit is beyond his expectation. Time is not enough to say anything.

But no matter what, at least I found another thing that needs to be paid attention to. It's better than not knowing anything. In case one day I drink too much and stay there, I won't be able to get up again.

Thinking of this, he optimistically told himself that as long as he had the will, he would definitely be able to accomplish his own things, and as long as he didn't give up, he would be able to get Zhiyue back, even if it was one year, five years, or ten years, he was not afraid.

At Dazhufeng on this day, everyone was anxious because of Li Xiu's absence. Looking at the new business that had just started, they didn't want it to be so dirty.

"I didn't know Brother Li Xiu was like this now. When I sent him through the door, he felt like he couldn't breathe."

Zhang Xiaofan said with a worried face.

"I knew it would be so dangerous for him to stay with us. I shouldn't have kept him. It's all my fault."

"Xiaofan, don't blame yourself, you didn't do it on purpose, if I had told you that people of their era would age faster if they stayed here, you wouldn't have kept him, those who don't know are not responsible, you Don't be sad, I believe that as long as he passes through that door and returns to his own world, he will be able to survive. Didn't he say that there is a place called a hospital in their place, which can save lives? A lot of people."

Seeing Zhang Xiaofan's self-blaming and sad look, Tian Linger quickly comforted him.

"We'll place an order at dawn tomorrow. We'll know what's going on with Li Xiu at that time. You should rest quickly. If something happens to Li Xiu, we'll continue with this business."

The elder brother thought, everyone must cheer up.

Before dawn the next day, Zhang Xiaofan was ready to go to the Cangbao Pavilion to place an order. As soon as he walked into the Cangbao Pavilion, he found that everyone had come to the Cangbao Pavilion early, and Tian Linger was lighting the hot pot they needed in front of the bronze mirror Bottom material, everyone is so nervous about shopping for the first time, not because they are worried that the goods will not arrive, but because they are worried that the delivery person is not Li Xiu...
[Ding, you have a new order message, consignee: Tian Linger, address: Dazhufeng]

Li Xiu, who was still asleep, was awakened by the ringtone of his mobile phone. After seeing the content of the text message, he smiled knowingly. The order at this point must be that group of guys who worried about him all night, so he hurriedly wanted to see if he was okay at dawn. of.

Here Tian Linger and a group of people immediately went down the mountain after placing the order and came to the cave at the entrance of the mountain. Li Xiu usually came out of this place. They tried to go in. There was a door in the deepest part of the cave. When they opened the door, they saw It was just a stone wall, but they all knew that Li Xiu came out from there, so they guarded the door early, hoping to see Li Xiu appear safely at the first time.

Li Xiu's battery car was still with them. Xiao Fan pushed the battery car and stood guard at the door, hoping that the owner of the car would show up quickly.

As soon as the strange goods store opened, Li Xiu arrived, seeing the goods piled up as high as a hill in front of him, his jaw dropped instantly.

"Are these guys crazy or are they trying to trick me? There are so many things and my car is still there. How can I climb the mountain with such a lot of things on my back?"

"Crazy, crazy."

"You have the nerve to say that they are placing orders before dawn, so I don't fall asleep afterwards. I have to lose a lot, and there is a profit, otherwise I will really lose money."

The boss was ashamed to complain when he heard Li Xiu, so he complained more fiercely than he did.

Carrying a large bag of things, Li Xiu climbed up to the attic with difficulty, opened the door and went in...
"This group of brats, if you have an opinion on me, just say it. I, a person who has been closed for a while, bought so many things as soon as I came here, and I don't have a car. Are you trying to exhaust me?"

While complaining, Li Xiu stretched out his hand to open the opposite door, but after trying several times, he couldn't reach it because there were too many things.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened from the outside...

The moment he opened the door, Li Xiu was stunned. He saw a dozen teenagers standing at the door, and they immediately cheered when they saw him come out.

"Hahahaha, great, it's Li Xiu, it's Li Xiu, he's all right."

"Yes, it's Li Xiu, he's not dead."

"It's really Li Xiu, he delivered the goods to us."

The teenagers cheered and talked.

"Brother Li Xiu, you scared me to death... woo woo woo..."

Zhang Xiaofan squeezed out of the crowd, and immediately threw himself into Li Xiu's arms.

"Hey... Hey... I said you kid want to strangle me, hold me so tight."

"Oh... oh... Brother Lixiu, I'm sorry, I... I'm too excited..."

Zhang Xiaofan quickly let go, then said with a smile while wiping away tears.

"Quick, quickly help Brother Li take what's on hand."

Someone in the crowd finally regained his senses. Seeing Li Xiu carrying things in big and small bags, he hurried forward to help him take the packages from his hands and back.

"Brother Li, I'm really happy that you're okay."

Tian Linger also spoke excitedly on the side.

"Stupid girl, it's thanks to you for saving me. If you hadn't asked this silly boy to send me back quickly, I think I would have no way to recover even if Immortal Da Luo was alive. So I should thank you all."

"Okay, okay, don't stand and talk in the cave, everyone had a rest yesterday, don't try to be lazy today, we are going to prepare everything in place today, what should be prepared, what should be prepared If you want to make money, you can’t do it without hurrying up. Hahahaha.”

Li Xiu clapped his hands, cheered everyone up, and then led a group of people straight to the Big Bamboo Peak. The cubs were all very light-hearted. How could he catch up with them as a mortal? Fortunately, he had his battery car, so he could barely keep up with them. up their speed.

After a while, the group returned to the Big Bamboo Peak, Tian Buyi was already standing at the door waiting to see if Li Xiu could come back.

The moment he saw Li Xiu, Tian Buyi excitedly held Suru's hand and said:
"I'm back, I'm back, that kid is not dead, haha, Junior Sister, he is not dead."

"Yes, yes, I have seen it all. Look at you, you are still like a child at your age. Be careful that the apprentices will laugh at you when they see it. Hurry up and restrain yourself."

Suru smiled and patted Tian Buyi and said while holding her hand tightly.

Of course Suru knew that her own husband was actually cold on the outside and hot on the inside, he looked serious on the surface, but he was actually an old child.

"Master Tian, ​​I'm back, I'm really sorry to make you worry."

"You boy, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm still embarrassed. Just come back, just come back. My hot pot business is still waiting to be completed with you."

Tian Buyi replied.

"Okay, no problem, let's not talk nonsense, we will start comprehensive preparations today, and we can start a trial operation tomorrow. If it is fast, we should be able to invite other Fengmai leaders to come and try it in the afternoon."

"Are you serious? We can treat guests today? Well, well, well, my Big Bamboo Peak has not been lively for a long time, hurry up, everyone, let's prepare together."

With a word closed, everyone immediately opened up.
