Qin Shen's Inn

The one who can boil the small wonton until the skin and flesh are separated is probably Liu Niang.After eating the wontons, I fished them into the soup, but look at this soup, it has been "drunk" in the pot for a century, it is cloudy and flocculent, it is a bowl of soup with a story...

When Liuniang was making wontons, Qiu Baocheng was there to guide him. The finished product really made the master doubt his life. Maybe when the pot was in Liuniang's hands, another dimension was connected.

Liu Niang was really embarrassed to say that the wontons she made had good color and fragrance, but the monster with hundreds of years of thick skin pushed the bowl in front of Rand Qi, showing a deceptive smile on his face , "Don't look at it as ugly, but it tastes absolutely delicious."

When the hand holding the side of the bowl left, the little finger slid across the back of Rand's hand placed on the table. The smile on Liu Niang's face deepened, and her voice was slightly in her mouth. She said, "You will be satisfied." Jane was simple. The five words of the list are like pouring wine into a glass glass. When you shake it gently, the wine liquid flows in circles on the glass wall. When it stops, the "teardrops" formed are like small rivers flowing into the heart, which is extremely attractive.

Rand had no expression on his tough face, and his eyes were as calm as stagnant water. He raised his head and glanced at Liu Niang. After a while, he picked up the soup at hand under Liu Niang's sweet smile. With a spoon, he scooped up a piece of pink and tender meat and put it into his mouth.

Qin Shen, "..."

Seeing Liu Niang seduce people, and succeed in seducing people, his mood is so complicated.

Entering the inn since Rand, Qin Shen looked at this man for the first time. He has a tough face and deep facial features, like a foreigner. His eyes are silent, the corners of his mouth are straightened, and there are deep dents between his eyebrows. He has left behind his good life. , Choosing to kill the enemy for the younger sister, but it didn't make the man happy.

Unexpectedly, Rand Qi would eat the wontons served by Liu Niang. Qin Shen thought he would reject Liu Niang's invitation. The world is really amazing.

The smile on Liu Niang's face got bigger, the tip of her tongue licked her lips, the plump lips had an irresistible moist color, making people want to kiss their fragrance, her appearance made all the guests in the lobby, no matter Whether it was a male ghost or a female ghost, they all swallowed their saliva, staring straight at her almost perfect delicate face, proud twin peaks, and long white and tender legs...Liu Niang, who is fully exerting her charm ability, is a stunner in the world, really It was impossible to refuse, she glanced at Qin Shen triumphantly, and finally regained her confidence from the failure of cooking.

Qin Shen supported his forehead, and whispered to her, "Restrain yourself, pay attention to the image of the inn, we are a serious inn."

"I hate it, he is obviously a decent person."

"Sister, if we do this again, we won't be serious."

Liu Niang pouted, put away the demonic power unwillingly, looked down, shrunk her shoulders in frustration, none of the three people at this table were affected by her, the boss was fine, as the boss he was attracted to himself immunity.Mr. Zhang, well, the only beauty in his eyes is the boss.Looking at Rand again, the action of eating wontons is serious and focused, as if he is eating a full banquet in Han Dynasty. If he has eaten it, anyone who sees "Appointment tonight" will die at the first glance!

Liu Niang turned her head resolutely, that's fine, the others are still dumbfounded and obsessed, she can only helplessly think that there are people with hard minds in the world who are not affected by external forces.

"Dad, Dad." After waking up from sleep, Diudiu put on a thin little yellow chicken home clothes and ran out, with a bright red chicken hat on his head, and the bright yellow color of the clothes set off just sleeping The awake little guy's skin is rosy and fair, so tender that it seems that a pinch can squeeze out abundant juice.

"What's the matter, baby?" Qin Shen hugged the little guy on his lap, touched the baby's ankle with his warm and dry palm, and was relieved that it wasn't cold, "It's still early, why did you get up from the bed so early. "

Diudiu shrank his feet timidly, Xiaonen frowned, and said distressedly: "Little Qilin peed in my room."

Following the little unicorn that came out, it squatted at Zhuo's feet, with its head down, looking at its little claws with black and white eyes, and the fat little claws touched each other embarrassedly, "Hmm." The tail flicked behind him listlessly, he did something wrong, what should I do?

Qin Shen withdrew his gaze, squeezed Diudiu's little hand and said, "It's okay, Dad will drag it for a while, then open the window for ventilation, and it will be done in a while."

"But..." Diudiu rubbed his fingers pinched by his father tangledly, "he peed on Dabai's little cushion, and Dabai was jumping around in the room, saying he wanted to eat the little unicorn, and he also said he wanted to eat braised pork Taste. This time it's true, Dabai is super angry."

"...Dabai never uses his mat anyway, just wash it." The mat is ready for Dabai to sleep on, but a certain divine beast is determined not to sleep, so it just sleeps on a lost bed, and the mat is left in the corner. Ash.

"But that's obvious."

"Okay." Baihu Shenjun likes to enclose territory, and the mat also belongs to his territory. If a little unicorn pissed on it, it is certain that he will go crazy, "Uh, let Dabai run wild in the room for a while and calm down. It won't eat the little unicorn."

"Yeah." Diudiu felt relieved after getting his father's assurance, clenched his little fist and waved it to the sky, making up his mind, "I will definitely teach the little unicorn to pee in the toilet."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu who raised his head on the ground, as if echoing Diudiu's words.

"Haha, come on, come on, come on." Qin Shen encouraged the two babies, and comforted the two children by the way, "When the white air is a little smoother, Dad will tell him that he will definitely not eat the little unicorn."

"Well, Dabai probably wants Dad to cook something delicious."

As if he knew it well, Dabai, who had been "stained" by the little unicorn, put on a serious face and reported the name of the dish, "roast duck, roast whole lamb, beggar's chicken, roast goose, roast duck, Barbecued pork, crab meat dumplings, Huangqiao biscuits, crystal siu mai..."

In order to make Dabai happy, Qin Shen agreed to prepare delicious food for him for a month, and asked him to order. Obviously, a certain little milk cat has a big face, as big as "-________-'".The veins on his forehead twitched, and Qin Shen tapped on the head of a certain little milk cat who was aggressive, and pressed the cat's head down a little, "There are none of what you said! Dried fish in honey sauce, Between five-spice beef jerky and sauced meat, you can choose the same."

"Meow~ Since that's the case, I reluctantly agree because I'm caring." Dabai raised his head, and blinked at Qin Shen with moist eyes, "Can we take turns?"

The cute Qin Shen threw away his helmet and unknowingly nodded, "Yes..."

Amber's eyes flashed slyly, and the kitten, who had succeeded in trickery, made a "V" with her pink paws. It was really hard for him to make such a difficult movement with his short fingers.

"..." Qin Shen, who had reacted, sighed helplessly. In order to eat, the White Tiger God Lord didn't even want the majesty of the God Lord.

"Boss, there's another guest here."

Liuniang's energetic voice came from outside, and Qin Shen responded, "Understood, come right away."

They had already finished their dinner, and it was eight o'clock quietly. Qin Shen was about to close the door and lock it. It was quite rare for a guest to come at this time.There are very few guests at night, and everyone seems to have agreed not to disturb the rest of the innkeeper at night.Qin Shen rubbed the little milk cat's head indiscriminately, "I will not go back on what I promised, and I will make small dried fish, beef jerky and sauced meat for you in turn in the next month, you, finish eating Be sure to rinse your mouth and brush your teeth after listening to the words, otherwise you will become the first god in history to lose teeth."

"Cut, my god protects my body with mana so that I won't lose my teeth."

"It's best to be like this." Qin Shen stood up with his hands on his thighs, "Eat my food, treat the little Qilin better, he is still a child, he won't stay in the inn for long, and his parents probably will die soon." Will find it."

"A hairy kid, why should I argue with him?" The little milk cat said with awe-inspiring righteousness, full of elder style, and I don't know who was mad in the room before.

"Yeah." The inn should love each other and be a harmonious family. "By the way, I will reduce the sugar for you when you make dried fish."

The white tiger god who can satisfy his hunger for a month would not care so much. After hearing what Qin Shen said, he said indifferently: "Whatever." Anyway, he can secretly eat with honey (﹃).

When Qin Shen came out of the kitchen, Baihu Shenjun, who chose to discuss important matters with Qin Shen in the kitchen, suddenly covered his left cheek, his expression of indifference cracked, and he muttered to himself, "It was just a little uncomfortable before, no It hurts so much. Is it possible that the tooth is really broken? No, no, no, I am the god of the four directions, and I have magic power to protect my body."

Lord White Tiger secretly made a decision in his heart, he will ignore it from now on, and just brush his teeth obediently...

Qin Shen, who came out of the kitchen, stood behind the bar and said to the guests with a polite smile: "Welcome to Wangxiang Inn. I need to register here. Please give me your name and address." He pushed it out of his mouth, and when he saw who was coming, the smile on his face suddenly froze, replaced by astonishment, "Miao Miao?!"

The corners of Lin Xiaomiao's pale face curled up, and a smile appeared on her face. She looked at Qin Shen and shouted, "Hi, brother."

My sister-in-law is good-looking, but her first husband looks very ordinary. The Miao Miao she gave birth to did not inherit her good-looking appearance, but more of her appearance was inherited from her father.Although she is not very beautiful, the little girl has a natural smiling face, with the corners of her mouth slightly sunken inwards. She only needs to bend the corners of her mouth slightly to have a sweet smile.

But now, Miaomiao's face is bloodless and pale as paper, the upper and lower eyelids of the left eye are uncontrollably widened, the black and white eyeballs protrude, and the pupils on the eyeballs become two superimposed vertical pupils , which is the symbol of the ghost school.Such an image, the sweet smile looks weird and weird, very similar to the rag doll of the psychic Lolita in the Guoan No. [-].

Qin Jing and Lin Gaofeng didn't come back at night. In the evening, her mother Qin Jing called Qin Shen and told about the situation there. She said that there were still many doubtful points in the case, and it was impossible to determine the crime of sister-in-law Lin Gaofeng.Because the nature of the case is quite bad, the case will be formally handed over to the Municipal Public Security Bureau in two days. At that time, Lin Gaofeng will also be transferred.After four o'clock, the police station agreed with the family members to meet the suspect.

It was Grandma Lin and Lin Xiaomiao who went to see her.

"Didn't you go to see your mother with grandma? Why did you come to me?"

Lin Xiaomiao's long hair was draped over her shoulders, her hands clasped in front of her body naturally, she looked cute and supple, if her face was ignored, she said in a hoarse voice: "Brother, I'm here to kill you of it."

Qin Shen, "..."

Liu Niang, who stood by and did not enter the room immediately, took a step forward and stood by Qin Shen's side.

Zhang Tenghai, who was waiting at the bottom of the stairs for Qin Shen to return to his room, strode to Qin Shen's other side.

Qin Shen twitched the corner of his mouth, looked at Miao Miao's weird eye, the ghost pupil logo inside seemed to move, and the two stacked vertical pupils gently separated on the white eyeball as if floating on the water Closed again, a harmless sense of blur floated out.

This is the first time Qin Shen has observed the logo of the Ghost School at such a close distance, and found that the vertical pupils stacked on top of everything are like two cat's eyes, a bit eerie... probably because Miao Miao was shocked by what he said, and his thinking was a little bit Chaos orz.

Lin Xiaomiao didn't need Qin Shen's answer, she said to herself, "But I don't want to kill my brother, so..."

She took out a knife from her bosom, the blade was glowing with sharp white light, Qin Shen and Zhang Thouhai pulled each other back, the magic power of Liuniang gathered in her hand, Lin Xiaomiao would be killed by her if she moved slightly different place.

The smile on Lin Xiaomiao's face was sweet, she waved the hand holding the knife, raised it to a certain height and fell decisively...

"Miao Miao don't want it!"

Lin Xiaomiao staggered when the fruit knife pierced her eyeballs. The sweet smile on her face remained unchanged, and she endured the pain and said weakly to Qin Shen, "Brother, I don't want to hurt you, and I won't hurt you."

Regardless of Zhang Tenghai's stop, Qin Shen let go of his hand, leaned on the bar and jumped out from behind, hugged Lin Xiaomiao, "Miao Miao is not afraid, brother is here, brother will take you to the hospital."

Thick black-red blood flowed from Lin Xiaomiao's wound, exuding a sticky stench. She shook her head, "They dare not enter the inn. I went out. They still want to find me."

What Lin Xiaomiao said were members of the Guitong faction hiding in the dark like rats in the gutter.

"There is a doctor in the inn, and there are medicines brought from Qinglong Shenjun, which can treat Lin Xiaomiao's injuries." Following Qin Shen, Zhang Tenghai, who came out from behind the bar, suggested.

"Yes, yes, yes." Qin Shen nodded carelessly, and told Liu Niang, "Liu Niang, let Rand come to my room and show Miao Miao."

"I'll go right away." Liu Niang frowned and glanced at the little girl who was being protected by the boss, then nodded and walked into the guest room area to look for Rand.

Qin Shen was short, and put his hand through the back of Lin Xiaomiao's knee, hugged her princess, hurried into the room, and said to Zhang Tonghai as he walked, "Old Zhang, go to the room and talk to me quickly." Diu Diu said, let him enter the room and not come out."

Zhang Tenghai nodded, Qin Shen walked into the room one step at a time, settled the child, Qin Shen also came in holding Lin Xiaomiao, Lin Xiaomiao's face was as white as gold paper, her breathing was weak and she was dying.

Qin Shen carefully placed her on the sofa, looked at Miao Miao with a fruit knife stuck in her face, and sighed heavily, "Oh, how did things happen like this!"

"We'll fix her."

"En." Qin Shen nodded, and said hesitantly, "But one eye is missing..."

"It's better to be controlled by the ghost pupil faction than to lose one life."

"It's true, this ghost pupil faction is harmful to people, and it must be eradicated."

Qin Shen didn't expect that the Ghost Eye Sect would come up with such a vicious method, using the hatred in a little girl's heart to confuse her, drive her, and lure people into demons, it's too hateful.

"Knock knock."

The door was knocked twice, Qin Shen raised his voice and shouted: "Come in."

Rand Qi was called by Liu Niang. Liu Niang turned around and was about to close the door, but a hand blocked the door. Lin Xiaoning and Lan Yueer who heard the movement also came down. Lin Xiaoning asked Liu Niang nervously, "What happened?" Something? I heard my brother yell."

"Lin Xiaomiao is here."

"Miao Miao?"

"Well, come in." Liu Niang let go of the hand pushing the door, making way for Lin Xiaoning and Lan Yue'er, and the two of them walked in.

In the living room, Rand was already inspecting the wound on Lin Xiaomiao's face. His steady and strong hand touched the handle of the fruit knife lightly, "Fortunately, the wound is not deep, it should only hurt The eyeball was removed, and the internal nerves were not damaged."

Qin Shen, who was holding his heart, heaved a sigh of relief, and asked Rand, "Can Miao Miao still keep her eyes?"

"I'll give it a try. It should be possible to keep it, but it will affect the strength. From now on, this eye can only see limited things." Rand got up and stood up, looking sideways at the medical equipment and medicines that Qin Shen and Zhang Tenghai packed up. The things are quite complete, enough for him to perform the operation. "Prepare me a clean room with bright and concentrated lighting. I will do the disinfection. I will take out the fruit knife for Miaomiao."

Seeing Lin Xiaomiao's situation, Lin Xiaoning was terrified, and when he heard that he was going to have an operation directly at the inn, he couldn't help but said, "Aren't you going to the hospital?"

Qin Shen shook his head and sent him to the hospital. People sent by Guitong came to find him, and the situation was even worse.

Lin Xiaoning wanted to ask again, but Lan Yueer pulled him back, and Lan Yueer shook his head at him, biting his lower lip to keep his doubts in his mouth.

Qin Shen quickly called Liuniang's other sisters and asked them to tidy up a clean and hygienic room, and prepared beds of suitable height, bright lamps, etc. in it.The prepared room was in a standard room on the third floor. After Wu Niang and the others tidied up the room, Rand went in and made strict disinfection preparations. After the preparations were complete, he walked in with Lin Xiaomiao in his arms, and called the six mother to help.

Before Rand asked the inn staff who had medical skills, it was a pity, not to mention the staff, even so many guests who came tonight, except for Rand, no one was engaged in related work.

"Taller than short", Liu Niang, who is good at sewing, was chosen to help.

The medical staff is ready, the equipment is complete, and the operation has begun.

On the door of the room, there is no sign of "operation in progress" lit up in the hospital, but there is no less tension and apprehension.

The operation was surprisingly quick, over in less than four and 10 minutes from the time Rand entered the room.The door was opened, Liu Niang poked her head out and said, "Okay."

Qin Shen raised his leg to move forward, staggered a bit and was supported by Zhang Tenghai. He grinned and endured the numbness of his legs from standing still for a long time, "How is the operation going?"

"It was a success. Lin Xiaomiao has not yet woken up from the anesthesia. Rand and I will take care of her here at night. Boss, go back to sleep."

"Can't go in and see?"

"After all, it's not a hospital. The operating room is already crude enough. To prevent infection, you'd better not come in."

Qin Shen nodded understandingly, and said reluctantly, "Then I will trouble you."

Liu Niang, who helped with the operation, frowned, "Don't worry, this is what we should do, boss, don't worry. It's getting late, go to bed."

Holding different needles, there are so many different funs, and Liu Niang discovers a new world.The occasion is not right now, if the patient inside is not a relative of the boss, she will definitely laugh a few times to express her inner joy and excitement.

"Then take good care of her. If anything happens, come to me."

"Well, the boss is relieved, Rand is very good at medicine, and Lin Xiaomiao will be fine."

Qin Shen's legs had recovered their blood circulation, but they were still a little stiff, so he walked back with Zhang Tenghai's support.After walking a few meters, Liu Niang suddenly called out, and Qin Shen turned his head.At night, the lights in the corridor became dim and blurry, and the lights shone from overhead. Liu Niang's long and curly eyelashes cast a shadow on her face. She said, "It's nothing, I call you. Good night, boss, Zhang Good night sir, good night everyone."

Qin Shen frowned, feeling that Liu Niang didn't mean to say these things, but he was too tired to continue asking, so he waved his hand and turned around to continue walking.

Qin Shen and the others went back to the room. On the way, Lin Xiaoning wanted to ask what was going on. Qin Shen was so tired that he didn't want to say more, "I'll talk about it tomorrow. I'm too tired to talk."

"Oh." Lin Xiaoning could only suppress a lot of doubts in his heart, and watched Qin Shen and Zhang Tenghai continue downstairs. He and Lan Yueer lived upstairs.

Qin Shen, who didn't want to talk at all, opened the door and glanced at the child, and found that Diu Diu had tidied himself up and fell asleep on the bed. He closed the door and went back to his room, took a hasty shower, came out and put the baby on the bed. He threw himself on the bed, lay on it, and looked ahead with his eyes open sideways.

When Zhang Tenghai came out of the shower, he was still in this posture, motionless.

Zhang Tenghai sat sideways on the bed, and patted his back with his gentle but steady hand. Although he didn't say anything, he patted him with just enough force, and slowly soothed Qin Shen's heart in sync with Qin Shen's heartbeat. .

After a while, maybe half an hour or just a few minutes, Qin Shen let out a long sigh, turned sideways, bent his legs, bent himself into a shrimp, put his arms around Zhang Tenghai's waist, Zhang Tenghai Teng Hai cooperated with him and sat down on the bed completely, making it more convenient and comfortable for him to hug him.

"The scene where Miao Miao grabbed a fruit knife and stuck it in the eye kept recurring in my mind, playing it in a loop. I told it to stop, but my brain was out of my control, so I couldn't stop."

Zhang Tenghai bent down, reached out and hugged Qin Shen's upper body and pulled him onto his lap, "This child has not completely compromised with the darkness, and she doesn't want to hurt you. Rand Qi has excellent medical skills, and he pulled out the fruit knife. Her The eyes are saved, we can still ask Qinglong Shenjun, ask him if there is any way to restore eyesight, everything will be fine."

"En." Qin Shen raised his head, buried his face in Zhang Tonghai's arms, and replied muffled.The beloved sister stabbed him in the eye, Qin Shen thought that this should become his nightmare, but it would be buried deep in his heart, because that scene was not a concrete manifestation of horror.

…………

……

When the clock struck twelve o'clock, Qin Shen in his sleep suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the darkness in front of him. He heard the sound of cracking ice and the sound of a conch horn coming from far away. The river broke through the ice.

Carefully took off Zhang Tenghai's hand on his waist, Qin Shen tiptoedly lifted the quilt and turned sideways, bent down to lift the slippers by the bed in his hands, stood up, the quality was excellent The mattress did not make any "creaking" sound, he tiptoed, slowly moved to the door, turned the handle to open the door, quickly passed through into the living room, turned and closed the door.

Stepping on the ground on tiptoe, Qin Shen put down his slippers and walked to the door. After thinking about it, he changed into a pair of sneakers, opened the door and went to the stairs in the northwest corner.

After passing through the stairs, with the scent of Bana flowers lingering on the tip of his nose, he walked quickly to the small courtyard, looked up at the sky, the bright moon was hanging high, and the clear light spread all over the world, making the intersection of the three realms look not so dark.On the one hand, the cold wind keeps blowing on the Xudu Plain, and the snow is flying heavily. The snow that has fallen all winter has accumulated at the border, and it is already taller than him alone. I wonder if the snow will melt when the spring is warm and the flowers bloom. Flood, does the inn need to take any measures to prevent the flood from passing through the barrier and hitting the inn.

In the middle, the Bianhua flowers become fragile in the cold wind of severe winter. The strong wind blows, blowing off the flowers between the branches and leaves from time to time. The filiform petals, which are like fire, are wrapped in the cold wind, flying, shattering, and falling apart in the air. On the soil, turn into dust and nourish the earth.

On the other side of the large expanse of flowers on the other side is the Santu River.

Qin Shen wrapped himself tightly in the thin pajamas, and when he came out, he was afraid of disturbing Zhang Tonghai's sleep, so he didn't go to the small sofa to get thicker home clothes.

Even the seal of the Heavenly Emperor could not completely stop the severe and extreme weather at the intersection of the three realms. The temperature in the small courtyard was quite low, maybe five or six degrees.

Qin Shen looked in the direction of the Santu River, and considered whether to turn around and go back to sleep now, or to walk out of the barrier and get closer to watch this spectacular scene.

A thick down jacket was draped over his shoulders, Qin Shen turned his head and saw Zhang Tenghai, "I woke you up."

Zhang Tenghai came out wearing a down jacket and thick trousers, holding Qin Shen's in his hand. He shook his head, "You didn't make any noise when you went out, but I woke up naturally when you weren't around."

Qin Shen smiled, "When I woke up at night before, you woke up immediately."

"Yes." Zhang Tenghai said naturally.

"Fortunately, unless I drink water before going to bed, my habit of sleeping on the pillow rarely wakes up at night, and it doesn't wake you up."

"My pleasure."

Qin Shen took the trousers, it was a pair of thick home trousers, you don't need to take off your pajama trousers to put them on again, just put them on outside, and then put on the down jacket, he took Zhang Tenghai's hand and said: "Let's go, let's go Appreciate the state of nature."

Qinglong Shenjun engraved the scales of the talismans. They found strings to pass through and hung them around their necks as amulets, so they can carry out intersections in harsh environments anytime, anywhere without worrying about getting hurt.

The two walked through the flowers and walked up to the trestle bridge of Wangxiang Jindu. They didn't dare to go too deep. The big black shadow Qin Shen encountered while catching fish was still fresh in his memory.

Standing on the trestle bridge, the whole body is icy cold but the wind is not rushing. It is cold, but it can't stop the heat in my heart.

The uncanny workmanship of nature makes people have no other emotions except admiration.

The thick ice surface of the Santu River, which has been frozen for thousands of miles, began to crack. Countless gaps have no origin, as if they appeared on the ice at the same time. The big ones can swallow people in an instant, and the small ones are like hair. .Under the ice layer, the water rose up, flowing, and in the silent dark night, the loud noise of the rushing water could be heard.

The water flow spreads from the gap, holding up huge thick ice blocks, they are undulating and agitating, some ice blocks are more than seven or eight meters by visual inspection, fish that have not had time to escape are frozen in the huge ice layer, some fish are like children Arms as long as some fish are as huge as blue whales.

Frozen in ice, it becomes a beautiful but cruel sculpture.

The water flowed more rapidly, visible to the naked eye, the floating range of the ice cubes was even greater, some small ones had already melted into the water, and the unmelted ones were carried by the current to flow... In the end, within a thousand miles, Qin Shen's naked eyes Within reach, only large ice cubes can be seen.

The Santu River resumed its usual speed and began to flow, and the ice blocks on the water also slowly floated, taking the fish inside and disappearing from Qin Shen's sight.

It is worth mentioning that not all the fish that were frozen in the ice were dead. Qin Shen saw that some of them quickly regained their vitality and started swimming after the ice melted.

"It's amazing." Qin Shen, who was shocked by the changes in the Santu River, praised, "The frozen Santu River resumed its flow in just over an hour. It's incredible."

The well-informed Zhang Tenghai was also fascinated by the scene in front of him, "This is nature."

"Yeah, it's hard for a human being to resist."

A long and long conch sound tore through the darkness. In the distance ahead, a treasure ship gradually appeared in the field of vision. The speed of the treasure ship was extremely fast. After a few breaths, it changed from the size of a bean to the size of a palm, and then from the size of a palm. It became a big ship with three floors in front of me.When the big ship lowered its deck, a big-headed ghost in green pantaloons, a red vest, and a yellow melon cap came down with a lantern.

The big-headed ghost caught a cold, and sniffled his nose from time to time. He hummed a tune that he didn't know where, and shook his huge head close to Qin Shen.As he walked closer, he bowed to Qin Shen with a lantern in his hand, "Hi sir, the boat docked at two o'clock today and stayed for three days and three nights. It will leave the port at this time three days later. Please send me some tea during this time." .”

"Okay." Seeing the long-lost big-headed ghost, Qin Shen smiled and expressed welcome.Looking up at the big boat, he wondered if his biological father was standing in a corner of the big boat and looking at him.

With a move in his heart, he suddenly raised his voice and shouted at Lou Chuan, "Father, I'm Qin Shen, happy new year!"

With the wind, his voice spread to every corner of the boat.

After waiting for a long time without any response, Qin Shen shook his head in disappointment. If he knew this was the result, why should he be disappointed? "Big head ghost, do you need to order any dishes, I..."

"Happy New Year."

Qin Shen suddenly turned his head to look at the big boat, his eyes swept up and down the boat, but unfortunately he didn't find any figure.But this reply is real. Qin Shen's father, Qin Yan, is standing in a corner of the building looking at him, watching his son.

Thinking of this, Qin Shen excitedly stood on tiptoe, and grabbed a few random hands in the air. Because he was too excited, he didn't catch Zhang Tenghai's hand at once, or Zhang Tenghai took the initiative to move his hand Sent up.He grabbed Zhang Tonghai's wrist and raised it up, "Dad, I will introduce someone to you officially. This is Zhang Tonghai, my lover, and my child's other father. I will bring Diudiu to see you tomorrow. He is me and Zhang Tenghai's son is eight years old this year, and you are now a grandfather."

There was a moment of silence on the upstairs boat, and there was no sound.

But Qin Shen didn't mind, he smiled and continued, "The shepherd's purse dug by mom and dad are still in the inn. I'll make big wontons of shepherd's purse for you tomorrow. Mom will be very happy when she knows you're here. I will go back with Qi Hai first." Go to bed, you also go to bed early, good night."

After a while, the voice just now sounded again, "Good night."

This was a huge breakthrough, Qin Yan on the boat finally spoke, how far is it from getting off the boat.

Qin Shen, who waved his hands vigorously to say goodbye to the ferry, hummed the tune hummed by the big-headed ghost just now. He asked, this is a nursery rhyme, the content is very simple-baby is sleeping, mother is here, the moon in the sky, the stars outside the house , protect you, my baby.

After entering the room, the corners of Qin Shen's mouth kept curling up when he finally got some good news today. He excitedly said to Zhang Tonghai: "Mom will be very happy to know that his brother is here."

In the end, Qin Shen didn't have much affection for Qin Yan who abandoned him shortly after he was born. He was so excited when he knew he was coming, it was all because his mother Qin Jing was looking forward to her younger brother's arrival.

Qin Shen and Zhang Tenghai went to sleep. On the upstairs boat, Qin Yan stood leaning on the railing and looked at the inn not far away against the wind. The huge inn standing at the intersection of the three worlds was the place where he was born and grew up. My loved ones, I really want to see them.

Behind Qin Yan, the ferry steward standing bowed still looked terrifying, with long hairs covering his exposed skin, and sharp teeth protruding from his thick upper lip against his lower lip in his protruding snout. Lips, even if you just stand simply and relaxed, the short sleeves made of kudzu linen are stretched by the muscles, and the silky fat pants can't cover the strong and developed muscles of the legs.

The housekeeper stared straight at the back of the owner of the ferry with a pair of big copper bell-like eyes, and there was a strange emotion in his eyes, and his voice was surprisingly pleasant, like the gurgling sound of a mountain and flowing water, calm and calm like a clear and cold moon, He said: "Miss them, just get off the boat and have a look."

"No." Qin Yan shook his head firmly, "It's not like you didn't see it during the Chinese New Year this year. The man who bet with me said that as long as I get off the boat, he will wipe out everyone in the inn. He is Cai Yuxi, the Eastern Ghost Emperor, He has the ability."

The butler sighed indistinctly, "My master, he is just a ghost land, not strong enough to destroy the entire inn."

"No." Qin Yan shook his head, looked at the endlessly flowing Santu River, and said quietly: "To you, he is just a ghost emperor ruling Fengdu, but to ordinary people, he is powerful and terrifying. If he can force me to promise to make a bet, he will have a way to kill me when I am. I can't afford to lose."

If you lose, you lose the life of your loved ones.

The housekeeper clenched his hands tightly, and tentatively said: "He wants to marry you and bet with you, but he just wants you to soften your attitude and agree to his request. As long as you agree, you can marry me." The family met."

The wind on the Santu River blew Qin Yan's cloak, and the brim of the hood bulged. The next moment, it was lifted off, revealing half of his face covered with hideous scars. The scars meandered upwards from the depth of the collar, like Twisted earthworms writhed under the skin, twisting half of their faces into the image of a terrifying victorious ghost, which was both disgusting and terrifying.

"It seems that there is nothing worthy of him marrying me like this. Is it because of love? Hehe, I'm afraid I want to get something from me."

This is the price for Qin Yan being selected as the owner of the ferry. He has a long lifespan and a ghost face. The ghost face appears every 24 solar terms, lasts for two days, and disappears after two days.

And today, it happens to be the second of the 24 solar terms, rain.

Why did the previous owner of the ferryboat die? Qin Yan thought, probably because he couldn't bear the loneliness on the boat and the presence of ghosts with hideous faces. He had too many mirrors and died of depression.
