There are many treasures in this country

Xiao Suo didn't listen to Shen Yan's words.

He didn't go out to buy food recently, but he didn't eat in the restaurant either.Everyone annoys him, and eating together is inevitably awkward.Shan Gu cooked lunch for him in the morning, he took it to the restaurant, quietly took it out at noon, and ate it in the alley behind the restaurant, it was clean.

It's just that the weather is cold now, and the food is often cold by noon, and with the wind blowing, I always have stomach troubles.He didn't care, just drink more hot water when he comes back, it's better than just pretending to be a snake inside.

This alley is only one street away from the alley where he bought food before, but in two directions, there is no one around, it seems to be outside the back wall of a big family - there are many bare flowers and trees protruding from the eaves on the opposite side.

There was a dirty cat in the alley, thin and small, with a round face like a meowing orange.It is much more ordinary than Baoyu. It has neither noble blood and identity, nor elegant posture and behavior. It shrinks in the corner every day, like a pitiful little girl who is used to being bullied.

Xiao Suo was particularly touched, and often shared some food with it, and gradually became familiar with it.Perhaps no one has ever treated it so well. When the little pity saw him, he yelled and became extremely clingy, often grabbing at the hem of his clothes.

After work was over at noon today, everyone rushed out to the dining hall, Xiao Suofang took out his blue cloth bag with white flowers.He went out from the back door of Hongwen Hall, and just turned into the alley, but saw a person standing there.

"Brother Siwen?" Xiao Suo was surprised, "You...why are you here, didn't you go to lunch?"

"No."

Xiao Suo let out an "oh", feeling a little embarrassed, and asked for something to say: "I don't know why brother Siwen doesn't go to eat lunch, what are you doing in this secluded alley?"

"Something happened."

"..." Xiao Suo looked carefully at his face—it seemed that he was neither angry nor happy, like a piece of wood with no expression, and like a block of ice without temperature. "Brother Siwen, what's your worry? Maybe I can share my worries for you?"

Liu Siwen finally looked back at him, pointed to the bricks and tiles on the wall by the alley and said, "There used to be a cat here, have you seen it?"

"Cat?" Xiao Suo was startled, "ah, I've seen it before. I've fed it some food these few days, and I've become familiar with it. It usually comes out every day, but I don't know where it went today."

Liu Siwen raised his eyebrows: "Did you feed it?"

"Yeah." Xiao Suo nodded because he didn't understand, "Is it... Brother Siwen's cat?"

No echo.

After a while, Liu Siwen turned around and said, "Thank you for taking care of it. If you see it again, please let me know."

Xiao Suo didn't make a sound, Liu Siwen paused, and said: "If you have any request, just ask, as long as I can do it, I will definitely agree."

"Ah?" Xiao Suo had never heard him say so many words in one breath, so he was stunned. When he heard the words, he suddenly reacted, and quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no. It's a trivial matter, why worry about it, why is it so useful Don't worry brother Siwen, if I see it again, I will tell you."

"Thank you." He nodded and started to leave. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Xiao Suo unpacking a small bag and sitting on the steps beside a corner door with a rusty brass lock. He couldn't help asking: "Are you here?" Have a meal?"

Xiao Suo raised his head and smiled: "Yes, it's clean here."

Liu Siwen was silent for a moment, then turned and left.

Xiao Suo wiped the roasted pork with radish that Shan Gu brought him today, just as he picked up a piece of meat, he heard a voice above his head: "Meow."

It's a pity that Liu Siwen went back, otherwise he would just meet the little poor man who ran back.It jumped down from the eaves lightly and deftly, and raised its front paws to pick off Xiao Suo's clothes. Every time it screamed, its round eyes were squeezed into a slit by its cheeks.

Xiao Suo threw the only few pieces of meat in the bowl to it, and he only ate radish and rice.The kitten didn't eat much, and stopped making noise after eating a few pieces of meat. It squatted at his feet, licking its front paws to wash its face.

When I was halfway through the meal, my eyes suddenly darkened, as if it was cloudy.

Xiao Suo raised his head from the food box, and saw a piece of black brocade embroidered with gold and silver double thread in front of him, with a jade-inlaid girdle on it, and clusters of dark silk flowers on it, with black hair hanging down beside him, and a circle of pearly red around the neckline. Onyx, lining a section of moon white collar.

The face on the top was very familiar to him, it was Shen Yan.

Xiao Suo shook his hand and almost knocked the food box to the ground.He hurriedly stood up, not knowing what to say: "Why... what are you doing here? I mean, you will be found out."

Shen Yan stared at him with an unfriendly expression, as if suppressing great anger, but he couldn't tell whether he was angry or not.His voice was deep: "What are you doing here?"

"I..." Xiao Suo glanced guiltyly at the food box on the steps, and then at the poor little boy who had already hid aside. He hoped that the gods would show up and switch bodies between him and Liu Siwen's cat, so as not to suffer the pain in front of him. coercion. "Eat...I, sorry."

"Why do you apologize?" Shen Yan still had a gloomy face, just came out to look for him, and saw a man and a cat sitting on the steps eating cold food from a distance, two pitiful little ones, one thinner than the other.

Xiao Suo didn't answer, just lowered his head and remained silent.

Shen Yan became more and more angry, he only listened to his own words, mourned his misfortune, and was angry with him.He glanced down at the food box, and ordered without a doubt: "Take your things and follow me."

"Go—" As soon as the word popped out, his eyes went out.Xiao Suo hurriedly swallowed the rest of the words, quickly put away the food box, followed him step by step to the restaurant.

At this time, it was lunch break, and everyone in the hall gathered together to chat their teeth.There were a few people from the maintenance department taking a walk in the back yard, but no one was outside in the front yard, probably sluggishly moving around in the cold weather.

Shen Yan walked in without saying a word, Xiao Suo followed behind very anxious: he usually laughs and curses, he likes to joke, even if he gets angry, he just curses a few words, it's seldom that he has such a cold face, it's hard to see Out of emotion.

As soon as Xiao Suo stepped up the steps, he saw that Shen Yan's hand that pushed the door stopped, and then he heard someone in the room say: "...it's early today, and the disaster star will probably come back in a while, don't talk nonsense, let him hear it Oh no."

Xiao Suo's face turned pale, and he was even more apprehensive.He recognized this voice, it was Huang Baiqing, an elder over forty years old.He really didn't expect that even this person would do the same.

"If you hear it, you can hear it. How dare he do anything!" Another childish voice said, "With him always in the way, our luck is bad. Can't we complain?"

Another older voice said: "I don't know where I made my sins, but I met him. After the new year, I still want to take the exam. Don't let him get in trouble again then!"

"Then needless to say, can you forget how those candidates who were imprisoned before died?" The childish voice said again: "It's not all his fault! The scourge is really evil, and the evil spirit is extremely strong, if you touch it, you will be unlucky!"

Suddenly another voice said: "That's right, I said why I have been so unlucky recently, it turned out to be his fault!"

"Really?" Huang Baiqing's voice sounded again, "It's so powerful, it won't work if you touch it?"

Just now the person who said "monster star" said: "Of course it is true. If you don't believe me, think about it, since he came, who among us has ever been lucky? Do you know who was the last reincarnation of a demon star?"

One after another voices came from inside the door: "I don't know. Who is it?"

The man said again: "It's Lu Zifeng, the rite minister who hanged himself on the south city gate!"

Everyone in the house was noisy, but it could be heard clearly outside the house.Xiao Suo's face turned blue, seeing Shen Yan squinting his eyes as if he was going to have a fit, he wanted to persuade him, but he looked down at the food box in his hand, but he didn't dare to persuade him.

Shen Yan didn't wait for them to finish speaking—probably there would be no time to finish—then pushed the door open.

Everyone was astonished, they stared at him for a long while, and then they had the wit to see the regulation of his clothes, knelt down and kowtowed: "I don't know the general is here, I have lost my way, I hope the general will forgive me!"

Everyone in the room was surprised and knelt down to salute.

However, Shen Yan smiled: "The general came to check the books for something, and he didn't know that the secretary of the school would come. You don't know, and it's understandable. Who is in charge in this room?"

No one made a sound for a long time, Shen Yan walked into the room, picked up an empty chair and sat down, said with a light smile: "Why, you don't even have a person in charge here?"

Xiao Suo hurriedly followed, and said softly: "General, Liu Siwen is in charge, he is not in the house at the moment."

"That's it." Shen Yan smiled faintly, "If you are not in charge, there is not even a person who can talk?"

As soon as the words fell, the person who said "Demon Star" ran out at some time, and suddenly came in from the outside holding a small tea tray, and said with a smile: "General, please use tea. Everyone has never seen the general so grand, So I was too frightened to speak, please don't blame the general."

Shen Yan took the teacup, took a sip, and suddenly threw it out, smashing it into pieces with a "bang-crack", splashing the tea everywhere. "Hey, do you want to burn this general to death?"

"Forgive me, General!" The man hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "The lowly position is not intentional, please forgive me, General!"

"What's your name?" Shen Yan glanced down at him.

"Back to the general," he said hastily, "Yang Weiju, a low-ranking officer."

Shen Yan nodded, and asked him again: "What were you guys talking about just now? This general only hears about 'disastrous stars and demon stars', but are you talking about fortune-telling and divination?"

Yang Wei cupped his hands and said, "Return to the general, the words of the humble rank... are gossip."

"Gossip?" Shen Yan sneered while holding the cup, "This general loves gossip the most, so let me hear it too."

Yang Weiju's complexion suddenly looked as if he had knocked over the dye vat, so he could only tell the truth: "I'm lowly, I'm talking about... the rumor that the demon star was reincarnated and attached to people."

"Oh?" Shen Yan asked with a smile: "It's interesting that the demon star is reincarnated. Who is the possessed person you mentioned just now?"

"Yes..." Yang Weiju looked at Xiao Suo, and said in a low voice, "It's Xiao Juren."

Shen Yan asked again: "Xiao Juren, which one is Xiao Juren?"

None of the people dared to answer, and they put their heads on the ground one after another.Yang Weiju knelt beside him with an uneasy expression, as if he was quite disturbed.Xiao Suo was extremely tormented, he didn't know what Shen Yan was going to do, so he could only say: "Report to General, the student is Xiao Juren."

"Are you the reincarnation of a demon star?" He asked suddenly.

"I..." Xiao Suo moved his lips, and murmured: "Student, student is not."

"How could it be?" Shen Yan said with a smile that was not a smile: "Everyone says you are, you must be. Otherwise, why would they say you?"

Xiao Suo lowered his head even lower, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

Shen Yan suddenly smiled and said: "Come on, come on, do your best and show me the general."
