Chapter 52: Migratory Birds Wait (17)
Hold on to it.
She could clearly smell a faint wisp of sandalwood.
But how can ghosts smell the scent of mortals?
The smell of human flesh is about the same.
She paused slightly, and looked sideways at the man who walked by.
The man had already walked to the ordering table, so he could only see a back.
It's not accurate to say that he's a man, even if it's just a back, Zhiyun can detect his age through soul perception.
- 19 years old.
Ah, just a half-grown teenager.
Zhifei thought to himself.
Maybe it's just an illusion, it must be that she "ate" too much dessert just now.
How can a boy of this age have sandalwood on him!
Zhifei turned around thoughtfully and left the dessert shop.
What she didn't notice was that as soon as she left the boundary of the dessert shop with her hind feet, the young man who had just been ordering turned his head and glanced in the direction she had left.
The young man has a very characteristic curly hair, fair skin, full of delicate facial features, a pair of eyes with a nearly round curvature, and a very light pupil color, faintly shining with a little less obvious blue luster.
Like the sun shining into the cat's eyes, the spring flowers bloom in an instant, and the world is clean.
The young man's face was tender, and his round eyes made him look younger, even though he was tall, with a height of one meter and eighty-three.
He looked in the direction of the door, until the girl at the ordering table whispered a reminder.
"Sir, sir?"
"Huh?"
Before the young man could react, he turned his head to look at the polite and smiling girl in confusion.
Girl: Ahhhh
"What do you need?"
The girl grabbed the flesh on her forearm and forced herself to maintain perfect professional etiquette so as not to break her work on the spot.
At this time, the young man realized that he had been standing here for too long, and immediately smiled embarrassedly, and said softly:
"A mango mousse, thank you. ”
The girl who was hit by the sudden "Angel's Smile": ...... Ahh
The young man looked at the girl whose face flushed for a moment in confusion, and did not understand how she had suddenly become like this.
"One...... Mango Mousse, please help me place an order. ”
He repeats his request to wake up the girl who doesn't know why.
"Oh, ah, I'm sorry, I'll help you place an order, are you taking it or dine-in?"
"Pack. ”
"Okay, a total of 62 yuan, please take the receipt and wait at the pick-up counter. ”
The young man put away the receipt and walked to the pick-up table, thinking in his mind that it was indeed the picture just now.
The woman who couldn't see her face clearly was cold all around and passed by him.
He seemed to be able to see the beautiful eyes of the woman behind the sunglasses, as bright as the stars, casually skimming over all things in the world, leaving loneliness in vain.
It's strange that he cares inexplicably about an unknown woman who has never seen her on the front.
The young man's fingertips touched the tip of his eyebrows, and there was something incredible in his heart.
Clearly...... I don't know at all.
..................
Zhiqian returned to the inn to deliver the results to Jiang Chenyu, the young man had just gone to see the white-haired man to send the black-haired old mother not long ago, and he seemed even more silent.
I don't know what the mother and son said, in short, Jiang Chenyu added a little gloomy between his eyebrows, and when he didn't speak, he even had a faint sense of existence.
Seeing Zhixuan, he was slightly stunned, and after a while, he said slowly, "Did Lord Xue deliver the things?"
"It has been handed over to Zhu Jiajia. ”
Zhifei replied.
"Are you sure it was delivered to Zhu Jiajia in person, not for someone else to hand it over or ask her to pick it up herself?"
"Sure, personally, hand it over to Zhu Jiajia, myself. ”
Persistence, each word accentuates the tone.
She didn't get angry because of Jiang Chenyu's questioning, she was patient enough in making "money", and the more generous the reward, the more patience she gave.
After all, it is not satisfactory to collect so much "money" from others, and this kind of thing cannot be done.
Jiang Chenyu's mood improved at a speed that could be detected by the naked eye, although he was still depressed, the depression on his back in his eyes was much lessened.
He said, "That's good, that's it...... I'm also more at ease. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his thin arm in front of Zhixuan: "Lord Xue will get paid." ”
Zhiwan didn't say anything polite to him, the entrustment contract had been signed before, and both parties had already confirmed it again and again.
The employer insists on giving so much, and it's hard for us to refuse, right?
Zhiqi conjured up a transparent stone, and his nails scratched a quarter of the word on the stone surface, and then put it into Jiang Chenyu's palm.
As soon as the stone touched Jiang Chenyu, it glowed with blue light, and the inside of the originally transparent stone body appeared like a wisp of blue.
As the blue silk threads continued to increase, Jiang Chenyu's soul ghost eyes became visibly transparent.
Zhiqian knew that with Jiang Chenyu's soul power state, there was a high possibility that losing a quarter of his soul power would cause the soul body to collapse.
Making money according to her idea is making money, and you can't squeeze the ghost dry, otherwise it's no different from killing someone.
Therefore, she laid a layer of soul power net in the space around Jiang Chenyu to prevent the dissipation of soul power, ensuring that Jiang Chenyu's soul would not return to heaven and earth.
As for the rest, then don't do the stubborn business.
It didn't take long for the stones that absorbed soul power to fill up, and the young man's soul was so faint that it was almost invisible.
It can't be helped, soul power is like the blood of a living person - or even more important, most of the energy of the ghost is stored in it.
Mortals who lose more than 30% of their blood can be life-threatening, and ghosts have a much higher need for soul power than mortals need blood.
So, even if it doesn't dissipate, it's not much closer.
At least, if the young man is still reincarnated as a human in the next life, his life will not be long.
And in the limited short life, his body will not be healthy, and if he is still thrown into a not very good family, early death is inevitable.
If he is reincarnated as a livestock, grass and trees, he will not be able to escape the fate of early death.
"Thank you, Lord Xue, for your help. ”
Jiang Chenyu thanked weakly, he could feel the action of holding on to the scarf, although he didn't care whether he could die or not, but the kindness of others should always be appreciated.
"Not necessarily. ”
Zhifei said lightly: "Zhiqian Inn has no reason to ask guests to die. ”
After a pause, he said: "Mr. Jiang will rest in the inn for a few days before going to reincarnation, you are in this state, it is difficult to cross the Nai He Bridge." ”
"Then thank you Lord Xue for taking me in. ”
Jiang Chenyu sighed softly, and his soul body became lighter.
"Yes, after all, you have paid so much remuneration, counting the room fee alone, it is enough to live for a hundred years, and after deducting the needs of the commission, you can live for at least thirty or fifty years. ”
Zhiwan put away the stone and wrote the word "Cheng" on the power of attorney of "Jiang Chenyu".
"Then I also have to thank Lord Xue, what Lord Xue has done here has benefited too many living beings, and you will be rewarded. ”
Jiang Chenyu stood up, their lower bodies were no longer visible, only the upper half was faint, but they looked more like the "ghosts" in Western legends.
Zhifei was amused by his blessing.
"How do you know that I am here to bless the living, and what if I am punished for my evil in my life?"
