18. Sea Charm Jiao

Ghost Festival on the 15th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar.

The fishermen of Red Sea Town have a day off, and the children don't have to go to school.

At noon, Uncle Guang burned a pot of pig's head meat, and made three big pots of vegetables full of the largest pomfret caught in the sea during the day, grouper and yellowfin fish.

Qi Ji hung a second-hand LCD TV on the wall in Qin's mother's commissary in the morning, adjusted the signal of the cable TV for a long time, and the connection line between the remote control and the computer was installed by Lu Li all morning.

Qin's mother tried it and found that the handsome guy in the Korean drama suddenly had a big face that he couldn't hold it with both hands, so happily, she called the barber shop proprietress over, and the two women were holding melon seeds and preparing to watch "My Name is Jin Sanshun" for the fifth time.

Old Man Hong changed into a crimson dress, tied a large belt around his stomach, and wore a pentagonal paper hat on his head. The whole person was in high spirits, smoking a cigarette, pulling Xuan Xuan and a few children who came to the town to watch the excitement to tell the story of the sea charm.

Xuan Xuan listened to it for the hundredth time, but the children's memory was poor, and Old Man Hong didn't know where to conjure up a dozen lollipops, so that a group of children carried a small bench, stuffed lollipops in their mouths, ate deliciously, and listened carefully.

"This sea charm has eight heads, a human face, the shape of a snake, and the fins of a sea fish, and it rests only in our part of the sea...... He likes to haunt the sea in □□, and his cry is like his name, and he likes to eat fishing boats, and he likes to eat people, especially ...... is a disobedient villain...... Wherever he went, the cottage was flooded, and no one survived. The old man's voice was hoarse, glaring at the children, and the wrinkles on his face were wrinkled.

The children's half-opened mouths listened seriously: "Grandpa Hong." Have you ever seen a sea charm?"

"Of course I've seen it!" the old man shook his eyebrows: "Your grandfather and I, when I was a teenager, I went fishing with my grandfather, and it was at this time of year that I almost ...... I can't come back!"

"Really? Really? Does it really have eight heads? So which head does his body listen to, and does the eight heads quarrel?"

"But my dad said that Haimeijiao is a summer typhoon, and the typhoon is very big, so he overturned the boat. ”

"Grandpa, grandpa, you told me last year that you met the sea charm Jiao when you went fishing with your father......"

Several children chattered, and soon asked Old Man Hong stunned, and whined for a long time, not knowing which one to answer first.

After eating breakfast, Situ wandered to the entrance of the town on crutches.

Sure enough, Chen Yan was holding his notebook in the commissary, rubbing the net, burying his head in writing.

The doctors they went to the countryside to support had to write a report every week and send it to the city, and if they didn't pay them, they wouldn't be paid, which was very troublesome. The broadband installation in the hospital was not successful twice, saying that the two signal towers in the town were damaged by a typhoon last year, and one could not be repaired, so the signal was particularly poor, and the town entrance was very fast, so Chen Yan always came here to rub the Internet, and seemed to buy something by the way.

Lu Li and Qi Ji's rural Taobao purchasing station is still impressive, only a week later, the pattern of the commissary has changed, half of the store that was originally separated by glass can enter people, got two second-hand computers, just installed a large TV, a huge cardboard at the door of the small store with a ballpoint pen painted several layers, marked "rural Taobao station".

Situ frowned and looked at it for a while, only to feel that it was really shabby.

Qi Ji and Lu Li are really big liars.

The 60-inch big color TV that was said to be good, there are still a lot of big cracks in the dilapidated corner, the two computers on the table look like they were picked up directly from the scrap market, and the façade is too ugly, and he has been standing there for half an hour, except for Qin's mother and the barbershop proprietress who looked at the sticks in the Korean drama and laughed non-stop, and Chen Yan, who was curled up together staring at the screen for a long time and hadn't moved, none of the ghosts had ever come in.

Lu Li and Qi Ji didn't know where to go.

In such a broken place, can you really expect to give him dividends in half a year?

Situ despised himself for a while in his heart, he already knew that he had fallen for Lu Li.

But when I saw Chen Yan, I thought about it in my heart.

The little actor before, he didn't blink his eyes, he threw down hundreds of thousands of dollars, bought bags and entrusted relationships. Chen Yan is more comfortable than that little actor, and he has less to do, I don't know how many times it is better, and it is not a big deal to send tens of thousands to improve his living conditions.

Chen Yan doesn't like to eat seafood very much, but chickens and ducks like to eat a few bites, and the chicken sent by Qi Ji is genuine and really good, as long as the chicken continues, it is easy to say......

Situ made his own little calculations.

He didn't think carefully about how Dr. Chen, who used him to pass the time in Red Sea Town, and the little actor who was similar to Liu Yifei before, could be comparable in his heart.

He just calculated that the pork rib soup he stewed was almost ready, and he had to call someone back to eat.

So he entered the commissary with a big grin and secretly stood behind Chen Yan.

- You shameless dog, my son's life needs to be changed.

- Chen Yan, I won't let you go if I'm a ghost. You have ruined my family, my children, my husband, you will be punished, you will be punished!

-- Do you think I won't be able to find you if you hide? I make trouble in your hospital every day, and I call Director Chen's house every day, and I will definitely find you, and I will dig up your body when you die, and I will eat your flesh one bite at a time!

- My son is a ghost, and he will never let you go in the next life, bitch......

"Who is it?" Situ's voice was cold. He thought that Chen Yan was looking at some information, but found that Chen Yan was staring at a QQ chat box alone, motionless, and he didn't even notice it when he walked behind him.

"Ahh Situ pressed the person to his position, and Chen Yan's body was trembling.

"Hahahahahaha-" The two middle-aged women who were watching Korean dramas with their backs to them suddenly burst into laughter like killing pigs, and the barbershop proprietress laughed so hard that she was stuck in her throat by melon seeds, coughed for a long time and came out, and continued to rattle heartlessly.

Situ's face was murderous, and Chen Yan was sweating.

The two of them were in such a stalemate, and the strange laughter of the women behind them was extremely embarrassing in the air.

"It's nothing, suddenly a ...... Strange site. After a while, Chen Yan seemed to be able to breathe suddenly, and the person stopped shaking, and his voice was still hoarse.

What was Situ about to say, seeing Qin's mother turning her head curiously, seeing that it was him, there was still a little caution in her eyes.

"Qin's mother buys a pack of cigarettes. Two bottles of beer. "Situ is fine, he buys things like a person and pays for it.

Qin's mother was still kind to the guests: "The hands and feet are not good yet, drink less wine." ”

"Mama Qin's dress today is really good, and the boss's new hairstyle also looks fashionable, tsk, she was a beauty embryo when she was young. ”

"Hahaha......"

Here, Situ's two sentences made the two middle-aged women laugh even more magically.

The old man Hong next door also told the □□ of his story-

"Oh, guess what's in the eighth mouth of that sea charm Jiao? a child, a child covered in blood, that is the son of the man who was supposed to be sacrificed...... The child has not yet been born from its mother's belly, and it is a large red patch, and its eyes are still open......"

"Let's go—" Situ shouted in a low voice.

Pulled Chen Yan up, listened to the old man's more and more unreliable ghost stories, and walked extremely fast.

"Let go of me. ”

Chen Yan struggled several times along the way, Situ's hands and feet were not perfect, but his strength was very great, and he took people back to the small bungalow under the lighthouse all the way, and specially avoided Hong Jianqiang's family who were cooking at the door of the house.

"Doctor Chen, your pork rib soup is ready, I'll turn off the fire for you!" Linghua shouted when she heard the sound of Chen Yan's house closing the door.

"Okay, thank you!" Situ shouted without looking back, pushed Chen Yan onto the bed, and sat him down.

Outside the door, Linghua's family was lively and lively to cook fish and make simple sacrifices.

Inside the door, the smell of pork rib soup is everywhere.

Chen Yan lowered his head, and his body was a little cold.

Situ lit a cigarette, pulled a stool over, and sat opposite Chen Yan.

"If you're in trouble, Brother Situ covers you. What does a sad face look like!" If his little brother was like Chen Yan and refused to tell the truth, Situ would have slapped him in the face and let people have something to say. Facing Chen Yan, Situ couldn't beat anyone.

After a while, my heart softened.

You speak slowly. Situ's voice was much softer.

……

"It's really nothing. Chen Yan shook his head.

"Do you want to treat me as your buddy?" Situ frowned.

Chen Yan looked up at the person, smiled inexplicably, and still shook it.

“……”

Five minutes later.

"Smack-"

The door of Chen Yan's house was violently opened and slammed shut.

Zhenkou.

Qi Ji returned from the county seat with Lu Li.

Qi Ji took out a bag of fried chestnuts with sugar, and the children immediately dispersed from Old Man Hong, chasing after Qi Ji to fry chestnuts to eat.

Uncle Guang helped Lu Li paste a yellow advertising poster on the cardboard in front of Qin's mother's store.

Qi Ji divides the chestnuts.

walked over, stretched out his hand to hug Lu Li, and looked at it from a distance-

"Rural Taobao Service Station"

The two of them read it happily.

I couldn't think it could be better.

"We're officially open today. Lu Li rubbed the glue on his hand, a little excited in his heart.

"Making a fortune is just around the corner!" Qi Ji echoed.

"But I forgot that today is Halloween—will it be unlucky?" Lu Li tangled.

"Today, August 8th, it's not too good. Qi Ji put his arms around Lu Li's waist and rubbed his head.

The man stood obediently beside him, and both of them were warm.
