soul collector

"Director Jiang!" Zhang Zhongzhong raised his hand to greet Jiang Qiao reflexively, his eyes slipped to the side, and he was startled when he saw Tang Xiu, "Is it senior? Am I right?"

Tang Xiu was probably the most stable person Zhang Zhongzhong had ever seen in appearance and temperament.A few years have passed, and it really hasn't changed at all.

"Well, long time no see."

"It's been a long time, senior! Hey senior, why is your voice a little hoarse? Are you sick?"

Tang Xiu didn't speak, Jiang Qiao said, "I've caught a cold, it's nothing serious."

"Oh." Zhang Zhongzhong subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the dormitory, "Then you go to bed early... hey, is there a room for you?"

Jiang Qiao didn't change his face and said: "Just now I asked the logistics to arrange the dormitory. This time, I asked Tang Xiu to join the team to see you children. There is a senior who dominates the situation, and it will save you all from being lazy."

Zhang Zhong said, director, who in your crew would dare to be lazy, wouldn't it really hurt your conscience to say this?

And he clearly remembered that when Gu Sihuan joined the team yesterday, he applied for an extra dormitory with Jiang Qiao, saying that he wanted to send two more living assistants over, but Jiang Qiao directly refused on the grounds that the room was full.

Where can I get an extra room?

Tang Xiu looked at Zhang Zhongzhong's hesitant expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing." Zhang Zhongzhong licked his lips, "Then what, I'm so dry in the room, I'll come out to get some air. If senior is sick, go to bed early."

"Ah, you too."

Zhang Zhongzhong waited for Jiang Qiao and Tang Xiu to pass by before he dared to look back at them.

The sky was very dark, and under the cover of the night, the figures of those two people walking together were a little too harmonious.Jiang Qiao and Tang Xiu were very close, and occasionally those two shoulders would brush each other lightly.

Zhang Zhongzhong suddenly felt more irritable and flustered. He tugged at the collar of his T-shirt and muttered, "The south is really too trendy."

The so-called Tang Xiu's room was actually Jiang Qiao's room.As soon as Tang Xiu entered the door and saw the huge bed, he immediately curled his lips, "You are a director who is really ostentatious."

"It doesn't matter if I live by myself. I knew you were coming a long time ago, so I chose this room on purpose." After closing the door, Jiang Qiao poured mineral water into the kettle to boil, and said, "But it's not for this bed. This room is well lit, don't you like bright halls?"

Tang Xiu hummed, walked to the window and opened the blackout curtain inside, looking outside through a thin layer of gauze.

The night scene of the film crew is different from the night scene of the city. It is empty and quiet, without so many lights. It is full of heat during the day, but extremely peaceful at night.

"I'm back here again."

"Yes." Jiang Qiao quickly opened the suitcase and helped Tang Xiu hang his clothes in the closet, and said, "Do you miss it?"

"A little bit." The ancestor tilted his head slightly and thought for a while, then said with a smile, "I miss the days when I was maliciously picked on by you."

"..." Jiang Qiao was silent for two seconds, and then immediately said, "That's just a way to get your attention. When I was young, I didn't know how to chase people, so I made many detours."

The ancestors heard the words but laughed and said nothing.This trip accompanied Ye Zhiheng to get the big soul that he was not sure about. Along the way, Ye Zhiheng chatted with him a lot. The first sentence Ye Zhiheng commented on Jiang Qiao was, " Director Jiang has a strong desire to survive."

Jiang Qiao pulled out a strip that had been scraped into strips from the suitcase, frowned and recognized it for a while before he recognized it was a tie of Tang Xiu.He was stunned for a moment, "What happened to this tie?"

Tang Xiu also identified it for a long time before he remembered, "Oh, I didn't take it out in the suitcase before, but this time I took it into the deep mountains and old forests, and it was used by Ye Zhiheng to bind branches."

"..." Jiang Qiao was silent for a second, "The tie we both bought was the same style, and we wore it as a couple, do you remember?"

"Remember." The old ancestor said with some helplessness in his tone, "I can't help it, I sprained my ankle that day, and Ye Zhiheng wanted to tie a cane with a branch for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Qiao immediately threw the tattered tie in his hand into the trash can, walked over and knelt down, and lightly touched his ancestor's ankle.

"Which foot?"

Tang Xiu felt goosebumps all over his body, and took a step back, "It's healed."

"Which foot?"

"Left foot." Tang Xiu was helpless, there was only room for two people, and he was still blushing even though they had been together for more than 1000 days.

"Hey, it's almost done. It's just the two of us in the room. What kind of affection do you show?"

"It's not showing affection." Jiang Qiao's voice was very low, and he sounded a little aggrieved. He sat down on the floor, rubbed Tang Xiu's ankle carefully, and whispered: "Why do you always feel I show affection, I really miss you, and I really love you."

Tang Xiu didn't know what to say all of a sudden, there was a cautious force on his ankle, it was a little itchy, he endured it, and didn't retract his foot.

"It's okay, but it's always hurting here and there. In a few years, the wear and tear on your joints will still be felt." Jiang Qiao sighed heavily, looked up at Tang Xiu, "In the future Just leave those juniors alone, okay?"

Tang Xiu pursed his lower lip, "It's not a big favor, Zhiheng's soul born from hidden kung fu has been searched for hundreds of years but he still hasn't found it, now it's even more difficult in this world, and finally got a clue, I have no reason not to help. "

"But practice is one's own business. If every soul collector needs the milk of his predecessors, then what's the use of them?"

Tang Xiu was at a loss for words.

Seeing his expression, Jiang Qiao felt something was wrong, and subconsciously frowned, "Aren't you going to leave after a while?"

Tang Xiu inexplicably felt a little guilty. Jiang Qiao looked at his eyes so bright, and he knew that once the words on his lips were spoken, those eyes would definitely dim.

He knew Jiang Qiao too well. This man would never get angry with him, nor would he show even a trace of impatience. He would just look at himself quietly, oh, and then carefully hide the disappointment and loneliness in his eyes .

Jiang Qiao looked at him vigilantly, "I just realized it. When you left, didn't you have two trolley suitcases? What about the other one? Did you take it back from Ye Zhiheng's place?" The luggage spread out on the ground, the things Tang Xiu brought back were either badly damaged, or some shirts and trousers, none of which were suitable for soul hunting.

Jiang Qiao took a deep breath.

"It's not like we have to go." Tang Xiu sighed, and finally said: "This time we found another clue to the great soul, which happened to be the one that Zhiheng had been searching for for several lifetimes, and he only had a clue in this life. It's the last thread, so everything is just right, so..."

Jiang Qiao didn't speak for a long time.

"But it will take a while, and he has to rest. We agreed to make plans in a month. I'll be with you for a long time, huh?" Tang Xiu carefully observed Jiang Qiao's emotions, but Jiang Qiao sat With his head down on the ground, he stood beside him, unable to see Jiang Qiao's face.

After a while, Jiang Qiao sighed, rubbed his hair and said, "I don't have to bully you, I just feel sorry for you running around, I... hey, forget it." He stood up from the ground , "Wash up and sleep, I'll get you some cold medicine."

After he said that, he opened the door and left. Tang Xiu sighed, went back to the bed and sat down. Looking at the half-box of dirty and tattered clothes, he suddenly felt a little empty in his heart.

He felt that he was becoming less and less self-motivated, helping the younger generation to complete the great cause of cultivation, compared with being with a lover, which one is more important?

In the past, he would have chosen the former without hesitation, and even ridiculed those who asked such stupid questions for their lack of spiritual awareness.

But now, I don't know when, the balance in his heart began to tilt.Seeing Jiang Qiao's disappointment written all over his head to toe, he actually felt very sad.

Tang Xiu didn't know how his mind was going, he seemed to have made some kind of decision in a daze, the door was unlocked from the outside, he subconsciously stood up, "Well, how about..."

Jiang Qiao walked in with cold medicine, smiled and asked, "Hey, did you take this last time and it didn't help? I remember you took that lotus flower that was more effective."

Tang Xiu was stunned for a moment, "Really."

"Hey, let's eat this tonight to deal with it. I remember eating the lotus one and I can't sleep."

"it is good."

Jiang Qiao took out two pills from the medicine, went to the table and mixed a glass of warm water, walked over to hold the cup and fed Tang Xiu the medicine.After Tang Xiu finished taking the medicine, he put the things on the table, walked over and hugged Tang Xiu.

"Hey, baby, I'm not angry at you, I really love you, and I miss you too."

Tang Xiu suddenly felt as if something was stuck in his heart, so he hummed.

"But I also understand your pursuit. It's a pity that I can't finish filming this drama in a month, otherwise I can go with you. It's my fault that I didn't coordinate the itinerary with you in advance. Next time I will ask clearly in advance, so I won't rehearse the drama like this .”

Tang Xiu didn't speak.

Jiang Qiao stroked his ancestor's back with his broad palms, as if comforting a child, "Okay, sleep well after taking the medicine, and you'll be much better when you wake up tomorrow morning. I'll buy you a family around here tomorrow." Very fresh pear juice, sweet and soothing to the throat."

"it is good."

Tang Xiu originally thought that after being separated for so long, Jiang Qiao would definitely not let him go to bed early tonight.But in fact, the man was like a koala, holding him in his arms, and fell asleep after holding him for a while.

Tang Xiu opened his eyes and slightly turned his head to look at Jiang Qiao.

In fact, this guy is a very pure person. Those who don't know him say that he is cold and loves to show off, but in fact he is very warm.Even if there is grievance in my heart, I will not vent it to the person I love. After turning around and digesting it by myself, I will turn around to comfort the other person.

Just like now, although something unpleasant happened, he still slept soundly, and that hug was sincere.

Tang Xiu suddenly remembered something, carefully removed Jiang Qiao's arm from his waist, and gently got off the bed.

Jiang Qiao's breathing was still steady.Behind him lay the unpacked box.Tang Xiu groped in the dark and squatted down next to the box, reaching into the interlayer to feel around.

It was dark, and the interlayer seemed to be empty, and he couldn't touch the thing he wanted no matter how hard he touched it.

Didn't it fall?

Just when he was anxious to turn on the flash of his phone to take a picture, Jiang Qiao on the bed suddenly turned over and shouted, "Grandson!!!"

Tang Xiu, "?"
