When the magic stick summons cute pets
Chapter 31 Nightmare
Ye Changsheng looked at Cheng Shimiao's back, then at the crazy Wang Jin, touched the tip of his nose and sighed to He Jiuzhong: "No matter who you offend in the future, don't offend women."
He Jiuzhong looked at him with a half-smile: "Which woman do you want to offend?"
Ye Changsheng thought about it for a while, and took it for granted: "That's true. I've always been kind to others, so why would someone be cruel to mistreat me?" He blinked at He Jiuzhong again, "And I have you now!"
He Jiuzhong glanced at him, with a slight smile on his lips, but his face was still tense, and he just said lightly: "You only know this sentence."
Ye Changsheng looked at the appearance on the other side, and immediately understood the loose tone of the other party, moved closer, and immediately flattered him: "Isn't what I said the truth!"
Although these words were full of flattery, but when Ye Changsheng uttered them, He Jiuzhong felt a little helpful after hearing them. He glanced at him again, and went out of the room with him.
Cheng Shimiao was sitting in the living room outside, with lowered eyebrows and eyes wondering what she was thinking.Ye Changsheng walked over and said, "What are you going to do in the future?"
Cheng Shimiao looked up at him and smiled: "It's just like what I said." Then he said slowly, "The Cheng family has recently been confronted with evil spirits, and the young lady and the wife have been tricked one after another. It's just that the young lady has noble people to help her, so she survived the catastrophe. Mrs. Fubo, she ended up being a fool and a lunatic—since she is already insane, sending her to a mental hospital where she can enjoy the care of professionals, isn't that the best result?"
Ye Changsheng looked at her, and saw that although her eyes were tired, they were firm and determined, she looked sober and calm, so she nodded and smiled, "You already have an idea in your heart, so I won't talk too much." It's over." Looking at the time, he said, "The matter is almost over now, so we won't bother you anymore—if you need help with anything in the future, please come to me again, old customer, I Give you a [-]% discount!"
Cheng Shimiao slightly bent her lips: "When my dad comes back and everything is over, I will definitely pay a visit. Please come and perform a ritual ceremony for us to get rid of evil spirits. Then please leave Tianshi Ye for us." Set aside a day."
When Ye Changsheng heard that he could still take orders later, he immediately smiled happily and said, "Come, definitely! For the safety of your house, I will never frown even if I go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of fire!"
After speaking, he said a few polite words to Cheng Shimiao, and left with He Jiuchong.
It was already late November, and the city of X was getting a bit cold.Coming out of Cheng Shimiao's room, a gust of cold wind blew in and made Ye Changsheng shiver. He Jiuzhong frowned slightly and said, "It's cold?"
Ye Changsheng nodded in pain, and tried his best to wrap himself in not-so-thick clothes: "It's okay, it's okay, just take a taxi and go back quickly."
He Jiuzhong glanced at him, seeing that he didn't care, so he didn't say any more.
It’s just that I don’t know if Tiangong deliberately made things difficult at this moment. I can usually get a taxi with a stop, but now I stood in the cold wind and waited for more than 20 minutes, but I couldn’t wait. Blowing into a popsicle, Ye Changsheng suddenly heard another popsicle-like cold sound coming from beside him.
"hand."
Ye Changsheng glanced at him sideways, looked at the man's cold profile, and felt that he might have had an auditory hallucination just now: "I seem to have heard you just now?"
"Hand." He Jiuzhong repeated impatiently, "Give it to me."
Ye Changsheng blinked, and leaned over coyly and timidly: "What? Do you want to hold my hand? Damn it, why are you so romantic all of a sudden!"
He Jiuzhong looked at Ye Changsheng who was suddenly possessed by a playwright, and became even more impatient: "Hand."
Ye Changsheng, who keenly read the impatience in his words, immediately became honest, obediently stood up straight and stretched out his hand, curiously asked: "What are you going to do?"
Before the words were finished, he saw He Jiuzhong's hand pulling towards him, and then, a wonderful warm current came from their touching palms, and then followed the flow of blood to his limbs. flowed past.In just a few seconds, Ye Changsheng, who had been blown almost stiff by the cold wind, immediately came back to life. He turned his head and looked at He Jiuzhong, who still had a cold face, feeling a little flattered: "You did it for me. heating?"
It seemed that He Jiuzhong was doing this kind of thing for others for the first time. There was a slight unease in his eyes, but it was covered by the indifference on his face. He raised his eyebrows slightly: "Aren't you cold?"
But Ye Changsheng didn't miss the awkwardness in his eyes that he wanted to forcefully conceal. He bent his eyes and smiled, squeezed He Jiuzhong's fingertips, and sighed: "What should I do? Can't live without you."
He Jiuzhong withdrew his hand, and said lightly: "With your current body, even if you want to run away, this deity will not let you do so."
Ye Changsheng smiled and nodded: "Don't run, don't run. I can't wait to grow on your body now, what's the point of running around!" Then he stretched out his hand, blinked, pitifully, "Will you warm me up for a while?"
He Jiuzhong looked at him coldly, for a long time, "tsk", his eyes fell on the busy street directly in front of him, but he still stretched out his hand, and held the other cool hand.
It was more than half a month after Cheng Shimiao visited again.
She was wearing an off-white A-line padded jacket, a pair of black boots underneath, a little makeup on her face, and a pair of bright and firm black eyes, which made her look glamorous and compelling.
Ye Changsheng looked her up and down, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her: "It seems that you have been living comfortably recently."
Cheng Shimiao took the cup in her hand and smiled: "Is it because the previous look was too ugly?"
"It's so beautiful now." Ye Changsheng praised with a smile, "When I opened the door just now, oops, I thought it was a fairy from some family who had descended to earth at first glance."
She has heard such flattery words since Cheng Pan's career became bigger and Cheng Shimiao became a wealthy young lady, but for some reason, listening to the smiling young man in front of her Speaking of it, I felt very ironic when I heard it in my heart.
She pinned the hair on the side of her face behind her ears, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "My father has already sent that woman to a mental hospital, and then I specially found someone to take good care of her. Don't care about her." It doesn't matter if she was really frightened crazy, or just pretended to be crazy to lie to me. Anyway, she will never step out of that wall again in this life."
Ye Changsheng nodded, warming his hands with his glass filled with hot water: "Then you are here today, do you want to make an appointment for me to go to your house again?"
"This is one of the purposes." Cheng Shimiao looked at him and said, "Aside from wanting you to come to my house to do a ritual ceremony some time ago, Tianshi Ye, there is actually one more thing I want to invite God teacher to help."
Ye Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise: "What?"
Cheng Shimiao took out a photo from her bag and put it in front of Ye Changsheng.
In the photo is a girl about her age, wearing a woolen hat, with a big smile on her sweet face, looking energetic and sunny.Although not as delicate as Cheng Shimiao's facial features, he looked like a little sun at first glance, and his face was very pleasing.
"Her name is Ji Xiao, she is my roommate in college, and the only same-sex friend who is closest to me." Cheng Shimiao said, "More than two months ago, she told me that she was going back to her hometown to join her cousin It’s just that I was exhausted from being haunted at that time, so I didn’t care about her anymore. But when I was sorting out my mailbox a few days ago, I suddenly saw that she sent me an email.”
Ye Changsheng became a little interested, he leaned slightly and looked at Cheng Shimiao: "What did she say to you?"
Cheng Shimiao pursed her lower lip, and said slowly, "She said... her cousin was resurrected from the dead."
Ye Changsheng frowned, and was about to say something, but suddenly there was a "squeak", the door of the bedroom was pushed open, and an unusually tall man walked out of it unhurriedly.Cheng Shimiao turned her head subconsciously, and was facing He Jiuzhong's scarlet eyes without emotion. Such cold and unruly eyes made her instinctively feel the strong oppression and danger, and almost immediately made her feel a sense of urgency in her heart. There was a trace of deep timidity.
"Where's breakfast?" He Jiuzhong just casually glanced at Cheng Shimiao, then turned his attention to Ye Changsheng who was beside him.
Ye Changsheng got up and walked to him, and handed over the cup of water that he had been holding to warm his hands: "Moisturize your throat." Seeing him take the cup, he bent his lips and tilted his head and said, "I'll get you breakfast later Buy it, don’t you like leftovers, don’t throw it away for me if you buy it early in the morning.”
He Jiuzhong raised his eyebrows, took a few sips of water and handed the cup back to his hand, turned around and went to the sink to wash up.
Even though it was not the first time to see the relationship between the two, Cheng Shimiao, who had a fear of He Jiuzhong for no reason had been rooted in his bones, still felt miraculous about such a scene.
"What's the matter?" Ye Changsheng sat back on the sofa, looked at Cheng Shimiao looking at him with indescribable eyes, couldn't help scratching his head, and grinned, "Flowers bloomed on my face." gone?"
Cheng Shimiao's expression was delicate: "Sometimes I feel Ye Tianshi, you don't look like a ghost hunter..."
Ye Changsheng was inexplicable: "What does that look like?"
Cheng Shimiao hesitantly glanced over the man who could vaguely see the outline of a man through the frosted glass, and lowered his voice like a mosquito: "Beast trainer."
Ye Changsheng had a strange expression on his face. He coughed and replied in a low voice, "Sometimes I feel the same way."
The two looked at each other, smiled at each other, and the atmosphere in the whole room suddenly relaxed.
However, the sound of water at the other end of the washstand suddenly stopped at this moment. He Jiuzhong opened the sliding door with his hands and walked towards the living room, and stopped beside Ye Changsheng. The arc of the smile is not a smile: "What do you think too? Beast trainer?"
Ye Changsheng's face that was still smiling just now quickly collapsed, he stood up and gave He Jiuzhong his seat, and walked obediently to his side, squeezed his shoulders and beat his legs: "What are you talking about? What animal trainer, this is The enemy's cannonballs maliciously provoke our relationship, and their sinister intentions are beyond words! We are the most compatible soul mates, the closest perfect partners, and we will never split easily because of this level of estrangement, right?"
Cheng Shimiao, who maliciously provoked the relationship between the two, had extremely sinister intentions: "..."
He Jiuzhong's eyes slowly turned around Cheng Shimiao again, then he smiled and pulled Ye Changsheng to sit beside him: "It's fine if you really think so."
Ye Changsheng cautiously glanced at the uncertain man beside him with the end of his eyes, and saw that his expression didn't seem to be planning to settle accounts after Qiu Hou, so he put his heart back into his stomach, and squeezed towards him, his buttocks were about to sit up. When it reached He Jiuzhong's lap, the two of them were barely squeezed into a single sofa.
Turning his head to look at Cheng Shimiao, he continued with the previous topic: "Your friend's cousin came back to life, then what?"
Hearing the incident mentioned on the other end, Cheng Shimiao's expression became serious again, and she said: "That email was sent a month ago. If it was before this incident happened to me, I probably wouldn't think there was anything wrong with it." , but after what happened to me, the more I thought about it at home, the more I felt something was wrong, so I called her a few times—but until yesterday, no one answered. "
"What about her family?" Ye Changsheng asked, "Have you asked?"
Cheng Shimiao said: "Xiaoxiao is the only college student who passed the exam. She has good grades and is willing to work hard to learn things. After finishing college, she was directly admitted by W Company and stayed in City X. Her family Now all of them are still in my hometown." He said again, "I also went to her rental house to look for it yesterday afternoon, but no one was at home. The company also said that she hired a renter for a month from two months ago. After the annual leave, I still haven’t returned to work.”
Ye Changsheng pondered and asked, "Didn't you try to contact your friend's hometown?"
Cheng Shimiao frowned slightly: "Actually, we have known each other for so many years, and she seldom talked to us about her hometown. She only said that it was a very remote village. Sometimes the signal was not good and she even made phone calls. stay home."
He Jiuzhong suddenly said: "Do you want us to go over there for you and take a look?"
"It stands to reason that this kind of thing should be reported to the police, but I heard from Xiaoxiao that their place is too remote, and there is no police. If you go up to the county, they are not willing to send anything The police force passed by, and they were all fooled when they could, and I thought that even if I called the police here, it might not be of much use." Cheng Shimiao didn't dare to look directly at He Jiuzhong, and could only lower her eyes slightly to look at the rising and falling tea leaves in her cup , whispered, "And the last email that Xiaoxiao sent me, no matter how I look at it, I don't think it's right. I can't trust other people, so I can only come here and ask you."
Ye Changsheng said: "Then when do you want us to leave?"
Cheng Shimiao bit her lip lightly, raised her eyes to look at him and said, "If possible, I hope the sooner the better. If Xiaoxiao really hasn't come back from her hometown, I suspect that something happened to her .She has always been a girl with a plan, and she cherishes her work in W company, it is not a big event, she can't come back after her annual leave."
As he said that, he took out another check: "This is [-] yuan, first pay the travel expenses to Tianshi. When you come back, I will transfer the remaining [-] yuan directly to Tianshi's bank account."
Ye Changsheng glanced at the check she put on the tea table, and gently twisted it with his fingertips on the cushion on the sofa: "It's not about saving lives, Miss Cheng, just in case your friend—"
"No matter what, I must at least know what's going on with her now." Cheng Shimiao frowned, "It would be best if Xiaoxiao still has a chance, but if something happens..." Her eyes darkened Shen Shen, the voice is a little lower, "I also hope that Ye Tianshi can burn a stick of incense for her for me, and help her find the murderer who killed her!"
Ye Changsheng raised his eyelids and looked at her, with a sigh in his tone: "I didn't expect you to miss this friend so much."
Cheng Shimiao was silent for a while, and said softly: "When I was in college, a few friends went camping together. I didn't know how to swim, and I accidentally fell into the river and almost died. At that time, she was the only one who jumped into the river recklessly. The one who saved me. I owe her my life."
Ye Changsheng raised the corners of his lips slightly when he heard the words. He held the check in his hand and played with it for a while, put it between the index finger and middle finger of his right hand and shook it, smilingly: "Okay, I'll take this order." Yes. Let me pack up and get ready today, you can pass me the address later, and I will leave early tomorrow morning."
He Jiuzhong watched his movements, then turned his head and glanced at him lightly.
Cheng Shimiao's eyes lit up, she stood up and bowed deeply to Ye Changsheng: "Thank you... Thank you. Ye Tianshi, I'll go back and find the address right away, then I'll leave this matter to you guys." .”
Ye Changsheng waved his hand: "Use people's money to eliminate disasters. Small things, small things."
Cheng Shimiao took another deep look at him, nodded, said goodbye, and quickly left the room with her bag.
He Jiuzhong watched Ye Changsheng tilt his head and stared in the direction Cheng Shimiao left for a long time, feeling a little irritable in his heart for no reason, he narrowed his eyes, and said lightly: "Is it so beautiful?"
Ye Changsheng turned around when he heard his voice, a little puzzled: "What?"
He Jiuzhong raised his chin slightly towards the door, and repeated lightly: "Do you think she is pretty?"
Ye Changsheng blinked, as if recalling Cheng Shimiao's exquisite face and those long, thin and straight legs, nodded, sincerely: "Ah, it's pretty pretty."
He Jiuzhong felt that the irritability in his heart became stronger with Ye Changsheng's sincere appearance. He hooked his lips in disdain, and his voice was a little cold: "This is considered good-looking? The beauties in the devil world are the last ones." Yes, it is also far better than her by a thousand times."
Ye Changsheng could hear He Jiuzhong's dissatisfaction this time, but no matter how smart he was, he couldn't figure out why He Jiuzhong was unhappy at the moment, scratching his head, he could only follow his words Said: "After all, the racial advantage, how can we mortals compare with the people there?"
He turned sideways again suddenly, held his face in both hands, looked around carefully, and smiled with his eyes bent, "Don't talk about other demons, I can tell just by looking at you, I'm afraid there is no one in this world It can look better than you were born."
His hands were slightly cold, and when he put them on his face, he could smell a vaguely cold fragrance.He and Ye Changsheng ate and slept together, and he had never seen any aromatherapy used there, and he didn't know where this inexplicable and sultry fragrance came from.
He Jiuzhong raised his eyes and looked at him halfway, as if he was chilled by the coolness on his hands, the restlessness in his heart gradually subsided, and even his voice became a little lazy: "You like the appearance of this deity ?”
Ye Changsheng nodded and withdrew his hand, stood up from the overcrowded single sofa while leaning on the armrest, tilted his head slightly and said with a smile, "You look so good-looking, who doesn't like it?" He pinched himself again Arms that were so thin that they didn't have any muscles, and enviously said, "If I can be half your size, how come I haven't had a girlfriend at this age."
Lord Mozun, who was already in a good mood, felt that he was not in a good mood when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows, and his voice sounded a bit mocking: "Do you still want to have a girlfriend?"
"I still want a child!" Ye Changsheng looked at him from the corner of his eyes: "Why, don't you allow others to have ideals?"
He Jiuzhong smiled, "Others are others, and you are Ye Changsheng. Others can, but you can't." Standing up, he looked down at him with absolute height advantage, "Your ideal, you only need to make money, work hard These two things are enough to save your life, isn't it my dear?"
Although Lord Mozun, who is the only one who respects me, has always been a little unreasonable, but for some reason, he seems to be extraordinarily unreasonable at the moment.
Ye Changsheng looked at the unreasonable He Jiuzhong in shock for a while, touched the tip of his nose, sighed secretly, and calmed down again.Forget it, if you are unreasonable, then be unreasonable. Who told him that he was summoned?A good pet owner must be able to tolerate all the little tempers of his pet.
"I think you're right." Ye Changsheng smiled sincerely, "I already have you, so why do I need a girlfriend? My only goal now is to work hard to make money so that you can live a good life ah!"
Lord Mozun nodded in satisfaction, not caring at all that this sentence sounded like he was being compared to a little boy who ate soft food.
"Then, you should be hungry too. I'll go buy you breakfast...can I just have the small wontons downstairs?"
Seeing that He Jiuzhong's emotions finally stabilized, Ye Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief, stretched his waist and rubbed his hair, and walked towards the door, "If you're okay, help me tidy up the clothes in the room. Hey... I heard the description on the other side, I'm afraid that if we go out this time, the two of us will have to struggle again."
For a remote and secluded village, the winter night seems to come very early, and when it gets dark, the whole village seems to be silent.Everywhere was quiet, almost anomalously quiet.
Ji Xiao shrunk herself into a small ball, tightly clutching a cell phone that was almost out of battery, her big eyes looked at the direction of the door anxiously, her body didn't know whether it was because of the cold or fear. Stop trembling slightly.
"dong dong dong"
There was a knock on the door, soft and unhurried, in this silent night, it seemed to knock on Ji Xiao's heart one after another, making her almost out of breath.
This family is full of rough people. When knocking on the door, they would clenched their hands into fists and smashed it loudly. They wished they were as rough as smashing the door.There is only one person in the whole family who can be so gentle and gentle—the cousin in the city that her cousin bought from traffickers for 3 yuan.
In other words, the cousin who died of the epidemic should have been buried in the ground at this moment.
"Xiaoxiao, open the door, I know you are inside. What are you doing closing the door again at home?"
The woman's voice is very gentle, with a little Jiangnan accent, Wu Nong's soft language is very touching.Ji Xiao used to like this sister-in-law who was completely different from the village women she knew: she liked her teaching her to read and read, she liked lying in her arms, listening to her tell her stories of distant places, and she liked her carrying Jiangnan The accented voice hummed a ditty to her.
But, that's all in the past.
Ji Xiao now felt even more frightened when she heard Wu Nong's soft words outside the door. She hugged her hands tightly around her knees, buried her head deeply, and followed the knock on the door with her whole body. The voice trembled more violently, like a frightened rabbit.
Suddenly, the knocking on the door stopped, but at the same time, the rustling sound of the door bolt being pulled reached the ears.Ji Xiao was a little panicked and slightly exposed her eyes to look over, and at a glance, she saw that the door bolt that she had already inserted was now wobbly and only hung on one corner.
She stared wide-eyed before waiting for a reaction, and heard a "bang", the door bolt fell down, and the originally closed door was blown open by a gust of wind. A woman with a gentle temperament outside the room saw the door open, and turned her eyes to the door. He turned straight towards the room, and when he looked, he met her terrified eyes.
"You girl, why do you have to ask for a meal? Your brother and the others are waiting for you outside, so hurry up and go there with me."
There was a bit of resentment in the woman's gentle voice, she walked in slowly, walked to the window and sat down, her eyes turned around Ji Xiao who was trembling, as if she sensed something was wrong on the other side, she couldn't help reaching out to touch it. Touching her forehead, a little worry appeared on her delicate face: "Xiaoxiao, why are you shivering? Are you cold? Or are you sick?"
Ji Xiao suppressed his desire to avoid the woman's hand, and forced his head up to look at her with a smile, "It's probably because of the cold wind. I'm not feeling very well right now... Cousin, today I I don't feel like eating anymore."
The woman frowned when she heard the words: "How can this work? People are like iron and rice is steel. You need to eat more when you are not feeling well. What should you do if you are hungry?" She dragged out of bed.
"Cousin!" Ji Xiao was pulled by the woman, and she blurted out a voice almost screaming. She looked away from the woman's suspicious eyes unnaturally, and said with slightly trembling lips, "Cousin, I'm I really can’t eat it. Please, I won’t eat tonight, tomorrow... I will definitely eat well tomorrow.”
The woman looked deeply at Ji Xiao.I don't know if her pupils are too dark and bright. Under the dim light of the kerosene lamp in the room, although the eyes of those eyes seem to be gentle, but when you look closely, there is always a bit of cold and gloomy feeling.
Ji Xiao didn't dare to look at her, but she also didn't dare to show the fear gushing out of her heart in front of her. She could only turn her gaze slightly, trying to restrain the trembling in her body.
"Hey, you child." The woman looked at her for a long time, as if she had finally compromised, she touched her head again, and said softly, "Since you feel uncomfortable, go to bed early, I will let you sleep tomorrow morning." Brother will cook porridge for you."
Ji Xiao nodded desperately, peeking at the woman standing up and slowly walking out the door, then quickly got up and closed the door, then leaned against the old wooden door, and slowly slid down to sit exhausted. to the ground.
The gentle sister-in-law is still as gentle and kind as she remembers, even if she was kidnapped to the deep mountains and married to her ugly and old cousin full of grievances, she still cared so much for her little sister-in-law.
Everything seems to be all right.
Ji Xiao buried her head deeply between her arms again, trying her best to stop the trembling on her body.
——It's just that she clearly saw that under the light, she had already disappeared.
The address Cheng Shimiao gave seemed to be taken from a letter with a camera. The handwriting was crooked, and the scrawled "Jijia Village" could barely be seen.
Ye Changsheng took the address on the photo and went to the Internet to check again. The so-called Jijia Village is probably located under a township under City H in the central part.
City H is farther away from City X than City A back then, but considering He Jiuzhong's black household status, Ye Changsheng had no choice but to take He Jiuzhong together on a long-distance bus that required two transfers .
Looking at the more and more expensive tickets, Ye Changsheng sighed and melancholy for a while, and was about to complain to the other end, but then he thought about He Jiuzhong's experience of flying with him when he didn't agree with him, and the words of complaint were choked Throat, he didn't dare to complain anymore, he obediently put his luggage away and endured the bumps of the road together with his Lord Mozun.
The car was not slow, but this time the road was unlucky. There were traffic jams and typhoons in succession. The two had to rest at the transfer station for another day. It was not until the afternoon of the third day that they barely reached City H. .
After getting out of the station, Ye Changsheng made a phone call to go to the hotel as usual. This time when he got on the bus, he deliberately opened the door on the side of the co-pilot and sat next to the driver. With a youthful face on his face, he smiled as soon as he got on the bus. He chatted with the driver master.
I have to say that Ye Changsheng's language talents are all full because he has been a magic stick since he was a child, especially his ability to talk nonsense when he sees people, and he has perfected the ability to talk nonsense. The driver beamed with joy, wishing he could tell him all the household registrations of the eighteen generations of his ancestors.
Ye Changsheng didn't think he was noisy, so he listened to him seriously with a slight smile.The other end finally cleared up the situation in his own house, as if realizing that he had said too much, Hanhan smiled and turned to this end and said: "Hey, where is my brother from? The accent doesn't sound like that. It's local."
The other end bent his lips and smiled, nodded and replied: "It's really not from the local area." He glanced at the man sitting on the rear seat looking out the window through the central rearview mirror, and said slowly , "My roommate and I were invited by a friend to come here to play a few days ago. No, we just arrived here after traveling from City X for several days."
"City X, my dear, that's very far away." The driver was speechless, he took the steering wheel in his hands and turned around familiarly, and then said enthusiastically, "I don't know where you are going, brother? Don't want me to show you the way? It's not nonsense, I have been driving in City H for more than [-] years, and there is no place in the whole city that I don't know!"
Ye Changsheng's eyes flickered for a moment, and the corners of his mouth curled up even wider. He smiled and said, "That's right, I'm worried about how to find the way tomorrow!" He glanced at the address on the phone, "Master, let me tell you Do you know how to get to 'Jijia Village'?"
As soon as these words were said, the driver who was driving frowned, and stopped the car on the side of the road with a "squeak".Turning his head to look at Ye Changsheng strangely, he spoke again, his voice seemed a little subtle according to his expression: "Are you going to Jijia Village?"
Ye Changsheng and He Jiuzhong looked at each other, then nodded as if nothing had happened, and asked innocently: "The address is right there...Master, what happened to Jijia Village?"
The driver took a deep look at Ye Changsheng's delicate and thin appearance, sighed, and started the car slowly again: "Although I can't say this well, but well, you know that city H is no better than city X, here Its development is late, and the atmosphere is more or less tough in some places. The urban area is better, but the countryside below...especially the Jijia Village!"
The driver seemed to be thinking of something, and couldn't help showing a trace of disgust on his face. After a while, he spat out, "It's not unreasonable to say that troublesome people come from poor mountains and rivers. They are not only tricky, but also very xenophobic. We None of the girls and daughters-in-law here dare to pass over there... Besides, I think you look so gentle, if you really pass like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."
Ye Changsheng burst into laughter, he pouted back, and said slyly: "It's okay, my brother is a trainer, a world champion, no matter how tricky their people are, I'm not afraid of the whole village."
The driver was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously raised his eyelids to look back through the mirror, but before he had time to take a closer look at the appearance of the passenger in the back seat, he saw a pair of pupils that were so dark that there was a trace of scarlet luster He also raised it suddenly, and his two eyes collided with one, which frightened him, a fearless 40-year-old man, into a cold sweat.
"Hey—hey!" The driver waited for a long time, and finally recovered from the pressure of He Jiuzhong's gaze, but his heart was still beating violently. He let out a sigh of relief, and looked at Ye Changsheng as convinced. , "Yes, yes, with this brother protecting you, you probably won't have any trouble." After thinking for a while, he said, "It's just that the reputation of 'Jijia Village' in the whole city is very bad. It’s remote and closed, and the government has been unwilling to allocate funds for road repairs, and unless you rent a car at a sky-high price, probably no one wants to go there.”
"Is that so?" Hearing this, Ye Changsheng frowned slightly, as if feeling a bit of a headache.
The driver looked at such a handsome young man with a troubled face and couldn't help but think of his son who was studying outside. He couldn't help but felt a little compassion, he hesitated and suggested: "Or else, Tomorrow I’m going to Mujin Town on business, and it will take about two or three hours for you to walk from the town to the village. If you’re willing to walk this section by yourself, I’ll pick it up for you when I leave tomorrow.”
Of course Ye Changsheng couldn't wish for it. He nodded and hurriedly responded, "Then thank you, Master. I don't know when Master will leave tomorrow?"
The driver parked the car in front of Ye Changsheng's hotel, looked at the time and estimated, "Nine o'clock in the morning. It gets dark early in winter, and it's too late. I'm afraid you won't be able to see the road by then." .” He drew a business card and said, “This is my mobile phone number.”
Ye Changsheng took the business card, paid the fare and got out of the car with He Jiuzhong. After taking the suitcase, he smiled and thanked the open window: "Thank you so much, master. I'll be here waiting for you at nine o'clock tomorrow." .”
Saying that, he waved his hand at the other end, and took He Jiuzhong to the front desk of the hotel to go through the formalities.
Holding the room card and opening the door, He Jiuzhong looked at Ye Changsheng and said indifferently: "It seems that this Jijia Village is not a good place in the first place."
The other end put the suitcase aside, and threw himself on the bed with a dash. The huge impact caused Ye Changsheng's whole body to heave a few times on the mattress. A pillow was placed under the face, and the voice sounded a bit dull through the pillow: "That's why I said this time the list seems to be a bit tossed, tsk."
He Jiuzhong looked at him with a half-smile: "Which woman do you want to offend?"
Ye Changsheng thought about it for a while, and took it for granted: "That's true. I've always been kind to others, so why would someone be cruel to mistreat me?" He blinked at He Jiuzhong again, "And I have you now!"
He Jiuzhong glanced at him, with a slight smile on his lips, but his face was still tense, and he just said lightly: "You only know this sentence."
Ye Changsheng looked at the appearance on the other side, and immediately understood the loose tone of the other party, moved closer, and immediately flattered him: "Isn't what I said the truth!"
Although these words were full of flattery, but when Ye Changsheng uttered them, He Jiuzhong felt a little helpful after hearing them. He glanced at him again, and went out of the room with him.
Cheng Shimiao was sitting in the living room outside, with lowered eyebrows and eyes wondering what she was thinking.Ye Changsheng walked over and said, "What are you going to do in the future?"
Cheng Shimiao looked up at him and smiled: "It's just like what I said." Then he said slowly, "The Cheng family has recently been confronted with evil spirits, and the young lady and the wife have been tricked one after another. It's just that the young lady has noble people to help her, so she survived the catastrophe. Mrs. Fubo, she ended up being a fool and a lunatic—since she is already insane, sending her to a mental hospital where she can enjoy the care of professionals, isn't that the best result?"
Ye Changsheng looked at her, and saw that although her eyes were tired, they were firm and determined, she looked sober and calm, so she nodded and smiled, "You already have an idea in your heart, so I won't talk too much." It's over." Looking at the time, he said, "The matter is almost over now, so we won't bother you anymore—if you need help with anything in the future, please come to me again, old customer, I Give you a [-]% discount!"
Cheng Shimiao slightly bent her lips: "When my dad comes back and everything is over, I will definitely pay a visit. Please come and perform a ritual ceremony for us to get rid of evil spirits. Then please leave Tianshi Ye for us." Set aside a day."
When Ye Changsheng heard that he could still take orders later, he immediately smiled happily and said, "Come, definitely! For the safety of your house, I will never frown even if I go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of fire!"
After speaking, he said a few polite words to Cheng Shimiao, and left with He Jiuchong.
It was already late November, and the city of X was getting a bit cold.Coming out of Cheng Shimiao's room, a gust of cold wind blew in and made Ye Changsheng shiver. He Jiuzhong frowned slightly and said, "It's cold?"
Ye Changsheng nodded in pain, and tried his best to wrap himself in not-so-thick clothes: "It's okay, it's okay, just take a taxi and go back quickly."
He Jiuzhong glanced at him, seeing that he didn't care, so he didn't say any more.
It’s just that I don’t know if Tiangong deliberately made things difficult at this moment. I can usually get a taxi with a stop, but now I stood in the cold wind and waited for more than 20 minutes, but I couldn’t wait. Blowing into a popsicle, Ye Changsheng suddenly heard another popsicle-like cold sound coming from beside him.
"hand."
Ye Changsheng glanced at him sideways, looked at the man's cold profile, and felt that he might have had an auditory hallucination just now: "I seem to have heard you just now?"
"Hand." He Jiuzhong repeated impatiently, "Give it to me."
Ye Changsheng blinked, and leaned over coyly and timidly: "What? Do you want to hold my hand? Damn it, why are you so romantic all of a sudden!"
He Jiuzhong looked at Ye Changsheng who was suddenly possessed by a playwright, and became even more impatient: "Hand."
Ye Changsheng, who keenly read the impatience in his words, immediately became honest, obediently stood up straight and stretched out his hand, curiously asked: "What are you going to do?"
Before the words were finished, he saw He Jiuzhong's hand pulling towards him, and then, a wonderful warm current came from their touching palms, and then followed the flow of blood to his limbs. flowed past.In just a few seconds, Ye Changsheng, who had been blown almost stiff by the cold wind, immediately came back to life. He turned his head and looked at He Jiuzhong, who still had a cold face, feeling a little flattered: "You did it for me. heating?"
It seemed that He Jiuzhong was doing this kind of thing for others for the first time. There was a slight unease in his eyes, but it was covered by the indifference on his face. He raised his eyebrows slightly: "Aren't you cold?"
But Ye Changsheng didn't miss the awkwardness in his eyes that he wanted to forcefully conceal. He bent his eyes and smiled, squeezed He Jiuzhong's fingertips, and sighed: "What should I do? Can't live without you."
He Jiuzhong withdrew his hand, and said lightly: "With your current body, even if you want to run away, this deity will not let you do so."
Ye Changsheng smiled and nodded: "Don't run, don't run. I can't wait to grow on your body now, what's the point of running around!" Then he stretched out his hand, blinked, pitifully, "Will you warm me up for a while?"
He Jiuzhong looked at him coldly, for a long time, "tsk", his eyes fell on the busy street directly in front of him, but he still stretched out his hand, and held the other cool hand.
It was more than half a month after Cheng Shimiao visited again.
She was wearing an off-white A-line padded jacket, a pair of black boots underneath, a little makeup on her face, and a pair of bright and firm black eyes, which made her look glamorous and compelling.
Ye Changsheng looked her up and down, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her: "It seems that you have been living comfortably recently."
Cheng Shimiao took the cup in her hand and smiled: "Is it because the previous look was too ugly?"
"It's so beautiful now." Ye Changsheng praised with a smile, "When I opened the door just now, oops, I thought it was a fairy from some family who had descended to earth at first glance."
She has heard such flattery words since Cheng Pan's career became bigger and Cheng Shimiao became a wealthy young lady, but for some reason, listening to the smiling young man in front of her Speaking of it, I felt very ironic when I heard it in my heart.
She pinned the hair on the side of her face behind her ears, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "My father has already sent that woman to a mental hospital, and then I specially found someone to take good care of her. Don't care about her." It doesn't matter if she was really frightened crazy, or just pretended to be crazy to lie to me. Anyway, she will never step out of that wall again in this life."
Ye Changsheng nodded, warming his hands with his glass filled with hot water: "Then you are here today, do you want to make an appointment for me to go to your house again?"
"This is one of the purposes." Cheng Shimiao looked at him and said, "Aside from wanting you to come to my house to do a ritual ceremony some time ago, Tianshi Ye, there is actually one more thing I want to invite God teacher to help."
Ye Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise: "What?"
Cheng Shimiao took out a photo from her bag and put it in front of Ye Changsheng.
In the photo is a girl about her age, wearing a woolen hat, with a big smile on her sweet face, looking energetic and sunny.Although not as delicate as Cheng Shimiao's facial features, he looked like a little sun at first glance, and his face was very pleasing.
"Her name is Ji Xiao, she is my roommate in college, and the only same-sex friend who is closest to me." Cheng Shimiao said, "More than two months ago, she told me that she was going back to her hometown to join her cousin It’s just that I was exhausted from being haunted at that time, so I didn’t care about her anymore. But when I was sorting out my mailbox a few days ago, I suddenly saw that she sent me an email.”
Ye Changsheng became a little interested, he leaned slightly and looked at Cheng Shimiao: "What did she say to you?"
Cheng Shimiao pursed her lower lip, and said slowly, "She said... her cousin was resurrected from the dead."
Ye Changsheng frowned, and was about to say something, but suddenly there was a "squeak", the door of the bedroom was pushed open, and an unusually tall man walked out of it unhurriedly.Cheng Shimiao turned her head subconsciously, and was facing He Jiuzhong's scarlet eyes without emotion. Such cold and unruly eyes made her instinctively feel the strong oppression and danger, and almost immediately made her feel a sense of urgency in her heart. There was a trace of deep timidity.
"Where's breakfast?" He Jiuzhong just casually glanced at Cheng Shimiao, then turned his attention to Ye Changsheng who was beside him.
Ye Changsheng got up and walked to him, and handed over the cup of water that he had been holding to warm his hands: "Moisturize your throat." Seeing him take the cup, he bent his lips and tilted his head and said, "I'll get you breakfast later Buy it, don’t you like leftovers, don’t throw it away for me if you buy it early in the morning.”
He Jiuzhong raised his eyebrows, took a few sips of water and handed the cup back to his hand, turned around and went to the sink to wash up.
Even though it was not the first time to see the relationship between the two, Cheng Shimiao, who had a fear of He Jiuzhong for no reason had been rooted in his bones, still felt miraculous about such a scene.
"What's the matter?" Ye Changsheng sat back on the sofa, looked at Cheng Shimiao looking at him with indescribable eyes, couldn't help scratching his head, and grinned, "Flowers bloomed on my face." gone?"
Cheng Shimiao's expression was delicate: "Sometimes I feel Ye Tianshi, you don't look like a ghost hunter..."
Ye Changsheng was inexplicable: "What does that look like?"
Cheng Shimiao hesitantly glanced over the man who could vaguely see the outline of a man through the frosted glass, and lowered his voice like a mosquito: "Beast trainer."
Ye Changsheng had a strange expression on his face. He coughed and replied in a low voice, "Sometimes I feel the same way."
The two looked at each other, smiled at each other, and the atmosphere in the whole room suddenly relaxed.
However, the sound of water at the other end of the washstand suddenly stopped at this moment. He Jiuzhong opened the sliding door with his hands and walked towards the living room, and stopped beside Ye Changsheng. The arc of the smile is not a smile: "What do you think too? Beast trainer?"
Ye Changsheng's face that was still smiling just now quickly collapsed, he stood up and gave He Jiuzhong his seat, and walked obediently to his side, squeezed his shoulders and beat his legs: "What are you talking about? What animal trainer, this is The enemy's cannonballs maliciously provoke our relationship, and their sinister intentions are beyond words! We are the most compatible soul mates, the closest perfect partners, and we will never split easily because of this level of estrangement, right?"
Cheng Shimiao, who maliciously provoked the relationship between the two, had extremely sinister intentions: "..."
He Jiuzhong's eyes slowly turned around Cheng Shimiao again, then he smiled and pulled Ye Changsheng to sit beside him: "It's fine if you really think so."
Ye Changsheng cautiously glanced at the uncertain man beside him with the end of his eyes, and saw that his expression didn't seem to be planning to settle accounts after Qiu Hou, so he put his heart back into his stomach, and squeezed towards him, his buttocks were about to sit up. When it reached He Jiuzhong's lap, the two of them were barely squeezed into a single sofa.
Turning his head to look at Cheng Shimiao, he continued with the previous topic: "Your friend's cousin came back to life, then what?"
Hearing the incident mentioned on the other end, Cheng Shimiao's expression became serious again, and she said: "That email was sent a month ago. If it was before this incident happened to me, I probably wouldn't think there was anything wrong with it." , but after what happened to me, the more I thought about it at home, the more I felt something was wrong, so I called her a few times—but until yesterday, no one answered. "
"What about her family?" Ye Changsheng asked, "Have you asked?"
Cheng Shimiao said: "Xiaoxiao is the only college student who passed the exam. She has good grades and is willing to work hard to learn things. After finishing college, she was directly admitted by W Company and stayed in City X. Her family Now all of them are still in my hometown." He said again, "I also went to her rental house to look for it yesterday afternoon, but no one was at home. The company also said that she hired a renter for a month from two months ago. After the annual leave, I still haven’t returned to work.”
Ye Changsheng pondered and asked, "Didn't you try to contact your friend's hometown?"
Cheng Shimiao frowned slightly: "Actually, we have known each other for so many years, and she seldom talked to us about her hometown. She only said that it was a very remote village. Sometimes the signal was not good and she even made phone calls. stay home."
He Jiuzhong suddenly said: "Do you want us to go over there for you and take a look?"
"It stands to reason that this kind of thing should be reported to the police, but I heard from Xiaoxiao that their place is too remote, and there is no police. If you go up to the county, they are not willing to send anything The police force passed by, and they were all fooled when they could, and I thought that even if I called the police here, it might not be of much use." Cheng Shimiao didn't dare to look directly at He Jiuzhong, and could only lower her eyes slightly to look at the rising and falling tea leaves in her cup , whispered, "And the last email that Xiaoxiao sent me, no matter how I look at it, I don't think it's right. I can't trust other people, so I can only come here and ask you."
Ye Changsheng said: "Then when do you want us to leave?"
Cheng Shimiao bit her lip lightly, raised her eyes to look at him and said, "If possible, I hope the sooner the better. If Xiaoxiao really hasn't come back from her hometown, I suspect that something happened to her .She has always been a girl with a plan, and she cherishes her work in W company, it is not a big event, she can't come back after her annual leave."
As he said that, he took out another check: "This is [-] yuan, first pay the travel expenses to Tianshi. When you come back, I will transfer the remaining [-] yuan directly to Tianshi's bank account."
Ye Changsheng glanced at the check she put on the tea table, and gently twisted it with his fingertips on the cushion on the sofa: "It's not about saving lives, Miss Cheng, just in case your friend—"
"No matter what, I must at least know what's going on with her now." Cheng Shimiao frowned, "It would be best if Xiaoxiao still has a chance, but if something happens..." Her eyes darkened Shen Shen, the voice is a little lower, "I also hope that Ye Tianshi can burn a stick of incense for her for me, and help her find the murderer who killed her!"
Ye Changsheng raised his eyelids and looked at her, with a sigh in his tone: "I didn't expect you to miss this friend so much."
Cheng Shimiao was silent for a while, and said softly: "When I was in college, a few friends went camping together. I didn't know how to swim, and I accidentally fell into the river and almost died. At that time, she was the only one who jumped into the river recklessly. The one who saved me. I owe her my life."
Ye Changsheng raised the corners of his lips slightly when he heard the words. He held the check in his hand and played with it for a while, put it between the index finger and middle finger of his right hand and shook it, smilingly: "Okay, I'll take this order." Yes. Let me pack up and get ready today, you can pass me the address later, and I will leave early tomorrow morning."
He Jiuzhong watched his movements, then turned his head and glanced at him lightly.
Cheng Shimiao's eyes lit up, she stood up and bowed deeply to Ye Changsheng: "Thank you... Thank you. Ye Tianshi, I'll go back and find the address right away, then I'll leave this matter to you guys." .”
Ye Changsheng waved his hand: "Use people's money to eliminate disasters. Small things, small things."
Cheng Shimiao took another deep look at him, nodded, said goodbye, and quickly left the room with her bag.
He Jiuzhong watched Ye Changsheng tilt his head and stared in the direction Cheng Shimiao left for a long time, feeling a little irritable in his heart for no reason, he narrowed his eyes, and said lightly: "Is it so beautiful?"
Ye Changsheng turned around when he heard his voice, a little puzzled: "What?"
He Jiuzhong raised his chin slightly towards the door, and repeated lightly: "Do you think she is pretty?"
Ye Changsheng blinked, as if recalling Cheng Shimiao's exquisite face and those long, thin and straight legs, nodded, sincerely: "Ah, it's pretty pretty."
He Jiuzhong felt that the irritability in his heart became stronger with Ye Changsheng's sincere appearance. He hooked his lips in disdain, and his voice was a little cold: "This is considered good-looking? The beauties in the devil world are the last ones." Yes, it is also far better than her by a thousand times."
Ye Changsheng could hear He Jiuzhong's dissatisfaction this time, but no matter how smart he was, he couldn't figure out why He Jiuzhong was unhappy at the moment, scratching his head, he could only follow his words Said: "After all, the racial advantage, how can we mortals compare with the people there?"
He turned sideways again suddenly, held his face in both hands, looked around carefully, and smiled with his eyes bent, "Don't talk about other demons, I can tell just by looking at you, I'm afraid there is no one in this world It can look better than you were born."
His hands were slightly cold, and when he put them on his face, he could smell a vaguely cold fragrance.He and Ye Changsheng ate and slept together, and he had never seen any aromatherapy used there, and he didn't know where this inexplicable and sultry fragrance came from.
He Jiuzhong raised his eyes and looked at him halfway, as if he was chilled by the coolness on his hands, the restlessness in his heart gradually subsided, and even his voice became a little lazy: "You like the appearance of this deity ?”
Ye Changsheng nodded and withdrew his hand, stood up from the overcrowded single sofa while leaning on the armrest, tilted his head slightly and said with a smile, "You look so good-looking, who doesn't like it?" He pinched himself again Arms that were so thin that they didn't have any muscles, and enviously said, "If I can be half your size, how come I haven't had a girlfriend at this age."
Lord Mozun, who was already in a good mood, felt that he was not in a good mood when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows, and his voice sounded a bit mocking: "Do you still want to have a girlfriend?"
"I still want a child!" Ye Changsheng looked at him from the corner of his eyes: "Why, don't you allow others to have ideals?"
He Jiuzhong smiled, "Others are others, and you are Ye Changsheng. Others can, but you can't." Standing up, he looked down at him with absolute height advantage, "Your ideal, you only need to make money, work hard These two things are enough to save your life, isn't it my dear?"
Although Lord Mozun, who is the only one who respects me, has always been a little unreasonable, but for some reason, he seems to be extraordinarily unreasonable at the moment.
Ye Changsheng looked at the unreasonable He Jiuzhong in shock for a while, touched the tip of his nose, sighed secretly, and calmed down again.Forget it, if you are unreasonable, then be unreasonable. Who told him that he was summoned?A good pet owner must be able to tolerate all the little tempers of his pet.
"I think you're right." Ye Changsheng smiled sincerely, "I already have you, so why do I need a girlfriend? My only goal now is to work hard to make money so that you can live a good life ah!"
Lord Mozun nodded in satisfaction, not caring at all that this sentence sounded like he was being compared to a little boy who ate soft food.
"Then, you should be hungry too. I'll go buy you breakfast...can I just have the small wontons downstairs?"
Seeing that He Jiuzhong's emotions finally stabilized, Ye Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief, stretched his waist and rubbed his hair, and walked towards the door, "If you're okay, help me tidy up the clothes in the room. Hey... I heard the description on the other side, I'm afraid that if we go out this time, the two of us will have to struggle again."
For a remote and secluded village, the winter night seems to come very early, and when it gets dark, the whole village seems to be silent.Everywhere was quiet, almost anomalously quiet.
Ji Xiao shrunk herself into a small ball, tightly clutching a cell phone that was almost out of battery, her big eyes looked at the direction of the door anxiously, her body didn't know whether it was because of the cold or fear. Stop trembling slightly.
"dong dong dong"
There was a knock on the door, soft and unhurried, in this silent night, it seemed to knock on Ji Xiao's heart one after another, making her almost out of breath.
This family is full of rough people. When knocking on the door, they would clenched their hands into fists and smashed it loudly. They wished they were as rough as smashing the door.There is only one person in the whole family who can be so gentle and gentle—the cousin in the city that her cousin bought from traffickers for 3 yuan.
In other words, the cousin who died of the epidemic should have been buried in the ground at this moment.
"Xiaoxiao, open the door, I know you are inside. What are you doing closing the door again at home?"
The woman's voice is very gentle, with a little Jiangnan accent, Wu Nong's soft language is very touching.Ji Xiao used to like this sister-in-law who was completely different from the village women she knew: she liked her teaching her to read and read, she liked lying in her arms, listening to her tell her stories of distant places, and she liked her carrying Jiangnan The accented voice hummed a ditty to her.
But, that's all in the past.
Ji Xiao now felt even more frightened when she heard Wu Nong's soft words outside the door. She hugged her hands tightly around her knees, buried her head deeply, and followed the knock on the door with her whole body. The voice trembled more violently, like a frightened rabbit.
Suddenly, the knocking on the door stopped, but at the same time, the rustling sound of the door bolt being pulled reached the ears.Ji Xiao was a little panicked and slightly exposed her eyes to look over, and at a glance, she saw that the door bolt that she had already inserted was now wobbly and only hung on one corner.
She stared wide-eyed before waiting for a reaction, and heard a "bang", the door bolt fell down, and the originally closed door was blown open by a gust of wind. A woman with a gentle temperament outside the room saw the door open, and turned her eyes to the door. He turned straight towards the room, and when he looked, he met her terrified eyes.
"You girl, why do you have to ask for a meal? Your brother and the others are waiting for you outside, so hurry up and go there with me."
There was a bit of resentment in the woman's gentle voice, she walked in slowly, walked to the window and sat down, her eyes turned around Ji Xiao who was trembling, as if she sensed something was wrong on the other side, she couldn't help reaching out to touch it. Touching her forehead, a little worry appeared on her delicate face: "Xiaoxiao, why are you shivering? Are you cold? Or are you sick?"
Ji Xiao suppressed his desire to avoid the woman's hand, and forced his head up to look at her with a smile, "It's probably because of the cold wind. I'm not feeling very well right now... Cousin, today I I don't feel like eating anymore."
The woman frowned when she heard the words: "How can this work? People are like iron and rice is steel. You need to eat more when you are not feeling well. What should you do if you are hungry?" She dragged out of bed.
"Cousin!" Ji Xiao was pulled by the woman, and she blurted out a voice almost screaming. She looked away from the woman's suspicious eyes unnaturally, and said with slightly trembling lips, "Cousin, I'm I really can’t eat it. Please, I won’t eat tonight, tomorrow... I will definitely eat well tomorrow.”
The woman looked deeply at Ji Xiao.I don't know if her pupils are too dark and bright. Under the dim light of the kerosene lamp in the room, although the eyes of those eyes seem to be gentle, but when you look closely, there is always a bit of cold and gloomy feeling.
Ji Xiao didn't dare to look at her, but she also didn't dare to show the fear gushing out of her heart in front of her. She could only turn her gaze slightly, trying to restrain the trembling in her body.
"Hey, you child." The woman looked at her for a long time, as if she had finally compromised, she touched her head again, and said softly, "Since you feel uncomfortable, go to bed early, I will let you sleep tomorrow morning." Brother will cook porridge for you."
Ji Xiao nodded desperately, peeking at the woman standing up and slowly walking out the door, then quickly got up and closed the door, then leaned against the old wooden door, and slowly slid down to sit exhausted. to the ground.
The gentle sister-in-law is still as gentle and kind as she remembers, even if she was kidnapped to the deep mountains and married to her ugly and old cousin full of grievances, she still cared so much for her little sister-in-law.
Everything seems to be all right.
Ji Xiao buried her head deeply between her arms again, trying her best to stop the trembling on her body.
——It's just that she clearly saw that under the light, she had already disappeared.
The address Cheng Shimiao gave seemed to be taken from a letter with a camera. The handwriting was crooked, and the scrawled "Jijia Village" could barely be seen.
Ye Changsheng took the address on the photo and went to the Internet to check again. The so-called Jijia Village is probably located under a township under City H in the central part.
City H is farther away from City X than City A back then, but considering He Jiuzhong's black household status, Ye Changsheng had no choice but to take He Jiuzhong together on a long-distance bus that required two transfers .
Looking at the more and more expensive tickets, Ye Changsheng sighed and melancholy for a while, and was about to complain to the other end, but then he thought about He Jiuzhong's experience of flying with him when he didn't agree with him, and the words of complaint were choked Throat, he didn't dare to complain anymore, he obediently put his luggage away and endured the bumps of the road together with his Lord Mozun.
The car was not slow, but this time the road was unlucky. There were traffic jams and typhoons in succession. The two had to rest at the transfer station for another day. It was not until the afternoon of the third day that they barely reached City H. .
After getting out of the station, Ye Changsheng made a phone call to go to the hotel as usual. This time when he got on the bus, he deliberately opened the door on the side of the co-pilot and sat next to the driver. With a youthful face on his face, he smiled as soon as he got on the bus. He chatted with the driver master.
I have to say that Ye Changsheng's language talents are all full because he has been a magic stick since he was a child, especially his ability to talk nonsense when he sees people, and he has perfected the ability to talk nonsense. The driver beamed with joy, wishing he could tell him all the household registrations of the eighteen generations of his ancestors.
Ye Changsheng didn't think he was noisy, so he listened to him seriously with a slight smile.The other end finally cleared up the situation in his own house, as if realizing that he had said too much, Hanhan smiled and turned to this end and said: "Hey, where is my brother from? The accent doesn't sound like that. It's local."
The other end bent his lips and smiled, nodded and replied: "It's really not from the local area." He glanced at the man sitting on the rear seat looking out the window through the central rearview mirror, and said slowly , "My roommate and I were invited by a friend to come here to play a few days ago. No, we just arrived here after traveling from City X for several days."
"City X, my dear, that's very far away." The driver was speechless, he took the steering wheel in his hands and turned around familiarly, and then said enthusiastically, "I don't know where you are going, brother? Don't want me to show you the way? It's not nonsense, I have been driving in City H for more than [-] years, and there is no place in the whole city that I don't know!"
Ye Changsheng's eyes flickered for a moment, and the corners of his mouth curled up even wider. He smiled and said, "That's right, I'm worried about how to find the way tomorrow!" He glanced at the address on the phone, "Master, let me tell you Do you know how to get to 'Jijia Village'?"
As soon as these words were said, the driver who was driving frowned, and stopped the car on the side of the road with a "squeak".Turning his head to look at Ye Changsheng strangely, he spoke again, his voice seemed a little subtle according to his expression: "Are you going to Jijia Village?"
Ye Changsheng and He Jiuzhong looked at each other, then nodded as if nothing had happened, and asked innocently: "The address is right there...Master, what happened to Jijia Village?"
The driver took a deep look at Ye Changsheng's delicate and thin appearance, sighed, and started the car slowly again: "Although I can't say this well, but well, you know that city H is no better than city X, here Its development is late, and the atmosphere is more or less tough in some places. The urban area is better, but the countryside below...especially the Jijia Village!"
The driver seemed to be thinking of something, and couldn't help showing a trace of disgust on his face. After a while, he spat out, "It's not unreasonable to say that troublesome people come from poor mountains and rivers. They are not only tricky, but also very xenophobic. We None of the girls and daughters-in-law here dare to pass over there... Besides, I think you look so gentle, if you really pass like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."
Ye Changsheng burst into laughter, he pouted back, and said slyly: "It's okay, my brother is a trainer, a world champion, no matter how tricky their people are, I'm not afraid of the whole village."
The driver was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously raised his eyelids to look back through the mirror, but before he had time to take a closer look at the appearance of the passenger in the back seat, he saw a pair of pupils that were so dark that there was a trace of scarlet luster He also raised it suddenly, and his two eyes collided with one, which frightened him, a fearless 40-year-old man, into a cold sweat.
"Hey—hey!" The driver waited for a long time, and finally recovered from the pressure of He Jiuzhong's gaze, but his heart was still beating violently. He let out a sigh of relief, and looked at Ye Changsheng as convinced. , "Yes, yes, with this brother protecting you, you probably won't have any trouble." After thinking for a while, he said, "It's just that the reputation of 'Jijia Village' in the whole city is very bad. It’s remote and closed, and the government has been unwilling to allocate funds for road repairs, and unless you rent a car at a sky-high price, probably no one wants to go there.”
"Is that so?" Hearing this, Ye Changsheng frowned slightly, as if feeling a bit of a headache.
The driver looked at such a handsome young man with a troubled face and couldn't help but think of his son who was studying outside. He couldn't help but felt a little compassion, he hesitated and suggested: "Or else, Tomorrow I’m going to Mujin Town on business, and it will take about two or three hours for you to walk from the town to the village. If you’re willing to walk this section by yourself, I’ll pick it up for you when I leave tomorrow.”
Of course Ye Changsheng couldn't wish for it. He nodded and hurriedly responded, "Then thank you, Master. I don't know when Master will leave tomorrow?"
The driver parked the car in front of Ye Changsheng's hotel, looked at the time and estimated, "Nine o'clock in the morning. It gets dark early in winter, and it's too late. I'm afraid you won't be able to see the road by then." .” He drew a business card and said, “This is my mobile phone number.”
Ye Changsheng took the business card, paid the fare and got out of the car with He Jiuzhong. After taking the suitcase, he smiled and thanked the open window: "Thank you so much, master. I'll be here waiting for you at nine o'clock tomorrow." .”
Saying that, he waved his hand at the other end, and took He Jiuzhong to the front desk of the hotel to go through the formalities.
Holding the room card and opening the door, He Jiuzhong looked at Ye Changsheng and said indifferently: "It seems that this Jijia Village is not a good place in the first place."
The other end put the suitcase aside, and threw himself on the bed with a dash. The huge impact caused Ye Changsheng's whole body to heave a few times on the mattress. A pillow was placed under the face, and the voice sounded a bit dull through the pillow: "That's why I said this time the list seems to be a bit tossed, tsk."
