Late at night, early in the morning.

After determining that he could not exterminate mosquitoes, Lian Ge put away the "Fu Seal Principle", put on his clothes and shoes, and stepped out of the courtyard again.

One hour after receiving the text message from Gu Xiaoying,

Lian Ge apologized for waking up the second uncle of the uncle's family at the entrance of the village from his sleep, asked him to borrow one of the few cars in the village, an old jeep, and began to drive to the city.

Unlike the county seat, the urban area of Xugou City is on the other side, and the distance from the old house of the Lian family is even farther.

Lian Ge wore the stars and the moon all the way, facing the night, bypassing the winding mountain road, driving out of the mountains, followed by a straight road from the suburbs to the city.

Finally, starting from four o'clock, after an hour and a half of driving, when the sky had begun to be hazy and white, Lian Ge arrived at the high-speed rail station of Xugou City on the edge of the city.

After parking the car, Lian Ge came to the exit of the high-speed rail again.

Glancing at the high-speed rail station where many people had gathered, Lian Ge took out his mobile phone and looked at the time.

After determining that the high-speed train Gu Xiaoying took would arrive at the station in half an hour, Lian Ge simply took out "Cultivation Basics" and looked at it.

After experimenting a few days ago, Lian Ge found that although people other than him could also see that he was holding a book in his hand, in their eyes, they could not see any handwriting on the book at all.

Lian Ge didn't care about whether there was anyone around him at the moment, so he didn't have to worry about the magic in the book being leaked at will.

"Whoa...... Whoa......"

Time passed in Lian Ge's continuous reading and flipping.

The number of people inside and outside the high-speed rail station increased as the sky gradually brightened.

Finally, half an hour later, another group of people who arrived at the station began to pour out from the exit of the high-speed rail station, and after glancing at the time, Lian Ge put away "Cultivation Basics".

Moved his gaze to the exit of the high-speed rail, looking at the crowd that kept pouring out, Lian Ge waited quietly,

Finally, after the arrival of this train of passengers was almost out, a familiar figure dragged a bulky suitcase into Lian Ge's sight.

Seeing this, Lian Ge smiled slightly and greeted him.

And Gu Xiaoying's eyes also lit up and saw Lian Ge.

"Lian Ge...... Brother Xiaoge!"

As soon as she stepped out of the exit of the high-speed rail station, Gu Xiaoying threw off her suitcase and threw herself into Lian Ge's arms, sticking to Lian Ge like a rag bear.

"Say, man, do you miss me?" Gu Xiaoying asked while hugging Lian Ge's neck.

"Yes. Lian Ge hugged this lovely girl and smiled knowingly,

"Hmph, liar, you still said that you miss me, don't call me!" With a hum, Gu Xiaoying let go of Lian Ge and pouted with an expression of 'come and coax me'.

"I'm sorry, Shadow. Lian Ge touched Gu Xiaoying's head and said seriously.

"Hmph, I don't want to hear sorry, I don't want to hear you apologize. Also, don't touch my hair, not when I'm angry. Gu Xiaoying said this in her mouth, but she didn't move her head,

"Just tell me, do you dare to break up with me?"

"Don't dare, I was wrong, is it okay for me to kneel down on the durian to apologize?"

"How can it be so easy, I'm angry this time, you can't coax it well. Gu Xiaoying turned her head and said,

"Then how can I express my apologies and make Xiaoying-san no longer angry?"

"Lian Ge, when I found out that you were really a bastard, you would bully me, do you still want me to tell you this kind of thing?" Gu Xiaoying said angrily,

"Then I'll think about it slowly, now Xiaoying, can you go home with me first?" Lian Ge said as he touched Gu Xiaoying's head.

"Okay, then think about it yourself. Gu Xiaoying nodded reluctantly, "Come on, Lian Ge, take my luggage, let's go home!"

Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled slightly, and then cooperated,

"The little one understands, please take care of Miss Xiaoying. ”

As he spoke, Lian Ge took Gu Xiaoying's somewhat bulky suitcase,

"Hmm...... Xiaoying, how long are you going to live," dragging a bulky suitcase of dozens of pounds, Lian Ge was afraid that it would be blown up,

"Stay until you are willing to go back with me!" Gu Xiaoying's face was slightly red at first, and then she raised her head and said to Lian Ge,

"What if I don't want to go back?"

"Then I'll stay here with you. ”

Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled, and then touched Gu Xiaoying's head again,

"Then you don't go to college?"

"You, Professor Gu's proud student, don't read anymore, what else do I read?"

"You're like this, I'm afraid that Professor Gu will break my legs. ”

"You know? Then don't come back with me. ”

Lian Ge smiled slightly and didn't answer.

“...... Lian Ge, you look so haggard...... Although I know that you must be very sad that your grandfather is gone, you can't be so careless about your body. ”

Gu Xiaoying looked at Lian Ge's bloodshot eyes and dark circles, paused, and stroked Lian Ge's face with her hand with some distress.

“...... It's all right, aren't you the same? His eyes were red and his face was pale. ”

"Which one, I came here in a hurry, didn't I sleep all night?"

"Me too. ”

“...... Lian Ge, no matter how sad you are, you can't help but rest, I know that in the dead of night, it is indeed easy to recall the past, but even so......"

"Actually......" Lian Ge looked at Gu Xiaoying, who was a little angry, and couldn't help but smile slightly,

"Actually, I didn't sleep for the same reason as you. ”

"Huh?"

"It takes about an hour and a half to get from my home to the high-speed rail station in the city, and the time I received your text message is three o'clock in the morning, and the high-speed train you take is six o'clock, and I have been waiting here for half an hour. ”

"Oh. Gu Xiaoying, who reacted, nodded, "Then aren't you really so haggard because you're sad?"

"Then why don't you go back to school, it won't be because you don't have money so you can't continue your studies, and then you have a younger sister or younger brother at home, right?" Gu Xiaoying instantly completed the brain supplement,

"If that's the case, Lian Ge, you don't have to worry at all, your teacher, can he still ignore you?" Gu Xiaoying said, selling her father in a blink of an eye.

Hearing this, Lian Ge patted Gu Xiaoying's head with tears and laughter,

"What kind of bloody drama are you making up in your brain, I'm not stupid, if it's because of the money, wouldn't I just apply for a student loan? Besides, where did I get my younger brothers and sisters?

Moreover, after returning home this time, I found that my family is quite rich. ”

"Then why don't you go back to school, is it because your family has inherited a lot of inheritance, and you have lost your goal all of a sudden, so you want to lie down at home and be a salted fish?" Gu Xiaoying asked again.

"I thought about it, but it wasn't the main reason, it was that my grandfather wanted me to inherit his business. ”

Lian Ge paused his steps again, turned to Gu Xiaoying and said.

"But didn't you say that your grandfather was a barefoot doctor? In that case, you should hurry back to school and continue your studies in clinical medicine." ”

Gu Xiaoying also froze in place, looking at Lian Ge with some doubts.

"You forgot, I also told you that my grandfather has another profession ......" Lian Ge looked at Gu Xiaoying and said quietly.

"Divine stick?" Gu Xiaoying spit out a word with some hesitation.

"It's a little different from the god stick, but it's just a little bit. ”

"What's that?"

"Immortals. ”

Lian Ge looked at Gu Xiaoying and smiled slightly, and then asked a classic question,

"Xiaoying, do you believe that there are ghosts in the world?"

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoying did not immediately refute, but lowered her head very seriously and pondered.

After a long time, he raised his head again and said seriously and rigorously:

"It's a question that can't be falsified and can't be proved for the time being, but since you asked at this time, it means that you may have evidence to prove the existence of ghosts.

My answer, then, is that if you can come up with evidence to prove its existence, I believe it. ”

Looking at Gu Xiaoying's rigorous and serious attitude, Lian Ge couldn't help but smile,

"Gu Xiaoying, why don't you play cards according to the routine?"
