Before she came to the study, she always thought that Shui Yun had an accident, but now it seems that it is not, could it be Ah Jiu? But Fu Qingzhu said that the spirit rune is only useful for demons, Ah Jiu is a human, even if he eats a cake mixed with a spirit rune by mistake, it stands to reason that there should be no problem? What's more, at that time, she deliberately divided the two servings of osmanthus cake, and she was very sure that the one given to Ah Jiu did not add anything. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info So how could something happen?

But the expressions on everyone's faces now clearly said the words "something big", which made Xia Yejin a little at a loss for a while.

But no matter what, she can't give Fu Qingzhu an explanation.

"Ah Jin, haven't you really met anyone else?" Shui Yun stood aside and spoke, his words were warm and his expression was indifferent, obviously looking like he was watching a good show.

At this moment, Xia Yejin suddenly understood why Fu Qingzhu's spirit rune couldn't play a role on Shui Yun - it turned out that she had dropped the bag in advance. dropped the two portions of osmanthus cake and exchanged the one mixed with spirit rune water for Ah Jiu.

"Ah Jiu is so pitiful, it's a shame that he still treats you as a friend, you are really ......" Seeing that Xia Yejin didn't answer, Shui Yun sighed on the side again, Wang Bad really couldn't help it, glared at her, and said You can't say a few cool words?!

Qin Yin has never been a person who will show his emotions to the outside, and after a short period of loss of control, he returned to his usual expressionless appearance, "The shopkeeper Li of Brocade Zhai should almost wake up, Ah Si, you come with me later, Wang Bad will stay at home, as for you-" His gaze fell on Xia Yejin's body, and motioned for Ah Si to take out a brocade box from the box next to him and hand it to her.

Xia Yejin opened the brocade box and looked at it, stunned.

A tourmaline bracelet.

"This one is for you, put it on."

"Give it to me?"

Seeing that Xia Yejin's face was full of surprise, Wang Bad winked at her next to her, signaling her to put it on quickly, otherwise everyone would suffer when the shopkeeper was angry.

Although she wanted to be able to receive a gift and leave here sooner than anyone else, but now that she was giving her a gift for such an inexplicable reason, the person who gave the gift was still Qin Yin, who was about to erupt with a cold face, this was too strange, right?

"Not surprising at all."

After Qin Yin and the others left, Wang Bad saw that she was still immersed in the shock of receiving the gift and couldn't extricate herself, and couldn't help but speak, "In our shop, the weakest person is you." This time, the osmanthus cake is because your ability is too weak to catch those unclean things. So the shopkeeper gave you this bracelet, and with this thing reaching out, whether it is a demon or a ghost, it can't get close to you. ”

"That...... How is Ah Jiu? ”

Wang Bad paused and said, he was fine, but there was a little accident, and the shopkeeper had solved it.

"Didn't the shopkeeper just say that the family of Jinzhai was ......?"

"It's all settled." Wang Bad turned his head and looked out the window, the sky was a little gloomy, and there were a few dolls in the alley outside the courtyard who were grabbing the scattered firecrackers, shouting noisily, "It's Laba tomorrow, you will help the house clean up during this time before the year, and then prepare New Year's goods with Ah Jiu, this year is just the sixth year for a few of us to come to the shop, and the shopkeeper said to celebrate well." ”

Seeing that he didn't mention the fault just now, Xia Yejin felt a little guilty, "I'm really useless, buying a pastry can cause trouble, not only causing trouble to everyone, but also affecting Ah Jiu, I must think about it next time......"

Wang Bad smiled and said that if the shopkeeper was really angry, he would not have specially given you a bracelet to ward off evil spirits, maybe this time he was a little angry when other outsiders like Brocade Zhai were involved. But he was angry, and he didn't actually blame you, and besides, now that the matter has been resolved, you don't have to blame yourself too much.

When she returned to the house, Xia Yejin remembered that there was another Fu Qingzhu who she threw in the library, seeing that it was dark, she planned to go over and take a look, but after thinking about it, people probably had slipped away a long time ago, so she gave up.

Although she had Wang Bad's comfort, because she didn't see Ah Jiu, Xia Yejin's spirit still couldn't be lifted, and she didn't have any appetite at all in the face of the dinner on the table, she just moved her chopsticks numbly, and she didn't know the taste of food.

After dinner, Wang Bad and Shui Yun went to Qin Yin's study, Xia Yejin was bored, knowing that she was also depressed when she went back now, and it happened that the curfew in Dongshi was delayed in the past few days a few years, so she simply went out to buy some New Year's goods.

walked to the door of the workshop, and once again met Fu Qingzhu unexpectedly.

However, this time it was different from the previous times, it seemed to be a real chance encounter, because Fu Qingzhu was still carrying fresh fish newly bought from the fish shop.

"On this big night, you also came out to buy New Year's goods?" I don't know why, seeing him holding fresh fish in his hand, Xia Yejin inexplicably felt funny.

"Sort of." Fu Qingzhu said while looking at the carriages coming and going in the market, and seemed to be a little anxious.

Seeing this, Xia Yejin said If you are busy, go first, and I will take a walk around at will.

At this moment, a carriage passed by, Fu Qingzhu stretched out his hand and pulled her, and when the carriage passed, he looked like he wanted to say something, hesitated for a while, and finally spoke cautiously, "That, Xia Yejin, can you accompany me to a place?" ”

*

The place where Fu Qingzhu was going was located in the west of Bianliang, and the distance was not too far, but it was a little off, Xia Yejin followed Fu Qingzhu around the alley for a long time before he reached the place he said.

After arriving, Xia Yejin found that there was such a place in the economically prosperous Bianliang City, in the deep alley, two rows of low adobe houses, the wooden doors were dilapidated, almost crumbling in the cold winter, and the tiles on the roof looked quite new, as if someone had just repaired them.

"Where do you live?" Xia Yejin couldn't help but ask when she saw Fu Qingzhu standing in the alley looking around. Is there something unclean here, too, otherwise what else would this man be doing in the middle of the night?

"No, I'll deliver something and leave."

After Fu Qingzhu finished speaking, he asked Xia Yejin to stand in place and wait, and then turned around and walked out of the alley.

Just when Xia Yejin didn't understand what kind of medicine was being sold in his gourd, he saw Fu Qingzhu pushing a cart and stopping at the mouth of the alley, and then beckoned Xia Yejin to come over to help.

"This alley is too small for the cart to get into, I want to give them these things, it's a bit much, I might want you to help."

After Fu Qingzhu finished speaking, he came out with two large bags of things from the cart, Xia Yejin took a look, there were not only fish but also rice and noodles in it, "Your relatives live here?" ”

Fu Qingzhu shook his head, "The people who live here are some lonely old people and children from the south, and these are for them." ”

Xia Yejin was a little surprised, "You bought such a big cart of things just to give them them?" ”

"Or else? Do you still sell it to them? ”

Xia Yejin pursed her lips, saying that she was too lazy to argue with him, and was about to ask if she was going to send it from door to door, when she heard Fu Qingzhu say that she didn't need to send it to their house, just put it directly in front of the door of each household.

Saying that, he asked Xia Yejin to stabilize the two big bags of things, and began to tie the rope along the outline of the stone mill under the eaves.

"Won't this be discovered?"

"So we're going to move a little bit faster."

After Fu Qingzhu tied it, he shook it and felt that it was quite firm, and grabbed some weeds from the haystack next to him and covered it, Xia Yejin watched him move like a cloud and water on the side, and suddenly understood a little, and stretched out his finger and pointed to the new tiles of the front rows of roofs, "Did you secretly help them repair it?" ”

"What do you mean by secretly? It's so ugly. I'm doing it with a lot of hands.,Now if you don't fix it, it's time to leak in the spring.,Anyway, I'm free.,I'll fix it.。 ”

When it was delivered to the last household, Xia Yejin suddenly saw a piece of rice paper pressed on the stone mill, she took the small stone pressed on it to the side, and handed the rice paper to Fu Qingzhu.

On the paper, a man wearing a martial arts costume and holding a long knife was drawn in black ink, which looked similar to the image of Wusheng in the play, and a line of words was written crookedly next to it: Kind chivalrous brother, when will you appear, we all want to see you.

"The appearance in this painting is much different from me......" Fu Qingzhu smiled, and easily pressed the rice paper with small stones again.

Suddenly, his eyes were a little sour, Xia Yejin blinked vigorously, and replied with a smile, "Yes, where are you so good-looking." ”

On the way back, the two were silent all the way, and after a while, Fu Qingzhu said Are you a little curious about why I do this, in fact, I was already alone when I was very young, and when I grew up and got used to the ability to survive, I may not feel how bitter a person is, but when you just started, you were still very young, and even three meals a day became a problem, the days were really long to the point of despair. I've been through that kind of time, so when I came here by chance a few years ago, I had this idea. I'm just a gesture, but sometimes what people lack in despair is often the effort of other people.

In fact, he didn't tell Xia Yejin completely, and Xia Yejin didn't necessarily want to hear it, he just suddenly felt something, recalling many times when he was struggling on the edge of despair, and suddenly realized that he had been walking on the road of loneliness and not being understood for a long time.

Xia Yejin was a little surprised that Fu Qingzhu would take the initiative to speak, and even more surprised that he would take the initiative to mention these, but she really didn't know how to comfort and answer, seeing that his subconscious frown seemed to be extremely uncomfortable, she touched his arm and said Is the injury better?

Fu Qingzhu was stunned for a while before she realized that the injury she was referring to was left over from the last time she was captured by the water demon, and immediately laughed, saying that it had been a long time since it had been healed.

Then he asked, "Today you were called away by the shopkeeper Qin, that Shuiyun girl didn't embarrass you, right?" ”

Xia Yejin shook his head, and was about to say that it was nothing big if the matter was resolved, when he heard Fu Qingzhu say, I am all to blame for this matter, if it wasn't for me having such a bad idea, you wouldn't have been suspected by the shopkeeper Qin, but I didn't expect to be ...... in the end The clouds swung along.

"It's not your fault." Xia Yejin said with a smile, "The matter has been resolved, and the shopkeeper didn't bother me much." ”

"Is Ah Jiu injured?"

Xia Yejin was stunned, "How do you know?" ”

The other party smiled and didn't answer, but just took a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Xia Yejin, saying that you give this to him, the healing effect is good. If he asks, you can make an excuse, don't say that I gave it, I'm afraid they won't.

Xia Yejin's nose was a little sour all of a sudden, she turned her head away from looking at Fu Qingzhu, and blinked her eyes vigorously. After her mood stabilized for a while, she couldn't help asking, "Fu Qingzhu, have you always been alone?" ”

Obviously a little confused by her question, Fu Qingzhu looked at her with a puzzled expression, and nodded for a long time, saying yes, what's wrong?

"I've always been alone, since I have a memory?"

"Not really. My parents died when I was six years old—"

Before he finished speaking, Xia Yejin's eyes widened, "You still have parents?!" ”

The other party had an expression of "isn't this nonsense", and looked at Xia Yejin very speechlessly and said, Why is it strange that I have parents?

Xia Yejin directly ignored his expression, and then asked, "Then you also remember the past?" ”

"Yes, I don't have amnesia, of course I remember everything. Xia Yejin, what do you want to say? ”

"I ......"

Xia Yejin suddenly paused, she really didn't know what she was going to say. The Fu Qingzhu in front of him has no amnesia, remembers his parents, and remembers everything he has done since he was a child, so he is not the Fu Qingzhu who has no memory and is missing a soul?

Or is he Fu Qingzhu, but at this time, he has not lost his memory, lost his soul and fell into that endless cycle of reincarnation?

Here, after Fu Qingzhu called Xia Yejin several times in a row, she didn't respond, and finally couldn't reach out and pat her arm, "Xia Yejin, why are you distracted again?" It's almost time to get to the shop, so go back quickly. ”

After Xia Yejin came back to her senses, she found that sure enough, the jade shop was not far in front, and as soon as she nodded and said You should go back early, she saw Fu Qingzhu frowning again.

"Fu Qingzhu, are you uncomfortable?"

"Maybe I'm tired from pushing a cart of things just now." Fu Qingzhu smiled indifferently, glanced at the red lantern in front of the shop not far away, and said to Xia Yejin It's late, hurry back.

Xia Yejin nodded.

Fu Qingzhu stood in place until she walked up the steps and her back completely disappeared into the door of the shop, then she turned around and walked back.

*

Sure enough, after Ah Jiu took the pill given by Fu Qingzhu, he recovered very quickly, and within a day or two, he returned to his original appearance.

The business of the jade shop all year ago seems to be concentrated in the past few days, which has caused Qin Yin, Wang Bad and others to be extremely busy, as soon as they are busy, the cleaning work of the inner courtyard will all fall on Xia Yejin's head, fortunately, Ah Jiu has recovered well, and the two of them have divided their work, but they don't feel too tired.
