Chapter 242: Old Knowledge
Fu Qingzhu finally couldn't help laughing, and said Xia Yejin, you asked me so many at once, which one should I answer first?
Xia Yejin blushed a little and glared at him, "Anyway, you shouldn't be here in broad daylight." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The other party looked innocent, "Is it okay on that big night?" ”
"......" couldn't bear to roll his eyes, "It doesn't matter, as long as you don't worry about being killed as a thief." ”
The two disliked each other for a while, and Fu Qingzhu suddenly put away a joking expression, saying that in fact, I came here today for a little business.
Seeing this, Xia Yejin's expression on her face also became serious, and just as she was waiting for the next step with a straight face, she heard Fu Qingzhu say, "Actually, it's nothing, just stop by to see if you're dead." But now I know it, and sure enough, it is a scourge that has been left behind for thousands of years, and the ancients will not deceive me. ”
“……”
The next moment, a stool smashed over.
Fu Qingzhu looked at Xia Yejin who was full of annoyance, and thought to himself that he had changed his mind temporarily just now, and it was better not to talk about some things.
Knowing more is not necessarily a good thing, and not knowing may be the best way to protect yourself.
"Is it really the Soul Mirror that is doing the trick?"
Xia Yejin stopped panting, holding the wooden stool in one hand, keeping the distance between the two, looking at Fu Qingzhu and asking. After she woke up, neither Qin Yin nor Wang Bad mentioned it again, which was quite a bit of a problem, but Xia Yejin felt that things should not be so simple.
Sure enough, I saw Fu Qingzhu shaking his head, his face was a little solemn, "It's not a mirror demon, it's a water demon." As for the mirror, it's just a trick it uses to absorb the original spirit. ”
"And now this water demon? ……”
The other party's face became even more solemn, "Ran away." After a pause, he said, "I don't think it will go far, you should be careful." ”
Xia Yejin thought in her heart that she didn't have to worry about having such a powerful character as Qin Yin in this shop, but it was rare to see Fu Qingzhu's face full of worry, so she nodded seriously, "Then you should be careful." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw that the expression on the other party's face was even more strange, and Xia Yejin was wondering if there were other tricky things, when she heard Fu Qingzhu staring at her cautiously and speaking, "Xia Yejin, can you put down the wooden stool in your hand first?" The way you put one hand on the stool to make me more careful is more like a threat than a concern......"
“……”
The wind and drizzle fill the room.
This is Xia Yejin's first impression when she enters the West Wing room.
Bianliang belongs to the north, the winter is cold and dry, the snow is often falling, but it is still dry, and chapped hands and feet are almost commonplace. But standing indoors at the moment, it made her feel a rare warmth. It's not a metaphor, it's literally warm, as if you suddenly walked into a small house in the south of the Yangtze River, listening to the rain and watching the flowers, the water vapor is dense, gentle and tactful.
"Your name is Ah Jin?"
The man sitting in the embroidered soft chair looked away from the building lamp in his hand and looked up at her.
"Yes." Xia Yejin nodded, I don't know why, the life in front of me is very good-looking, but there is an awkwardness in his gestures, and it seems to be an illusion when he looks closely, but after retracting his gaze, it is still awkward. In the end, such an inexplicable discovery made her own behavior extremely strange.
"I heard you've lived here for a long time?" The other party leaned over and asked her, her movements were elegant, but she still revealed a strange sense of awkwardness for no reason.
"Well, Shopkeeper Qin kindly took us in." Xia Yejin said as she hurriedly put the pastries in the tray in her hand on the table, Ah Jiu explained, these are all specially prepared by the shopkeeper for the girl in front of him.
Thinking of this, she was a little angry, she stayed in the library with dignity, she wanted to find some information about the water demon, but she was dragged out by Ah Jiu, saying that she wanted her to do a favor, and only she could do this thing. Just when Xia Yejin thought it was a big deal, the other party actually stuffed a tray into her hand and asked her to send snacks to the new water girl.
That's right, this person's surname is Shui. A single name is a cloud word.
At that time, she was shocked for a while because of this surname, but now it seems that compared to this water girl's person, her surname is too normal.
"Didn't think about going anywhere else?" Xia Yejin was concentrating on "communicating with heaven and man" with the pot of begonias in front of her, when she heard the other party ask again, she immediately came back to her senses and replied lightly, "Shopkeeper Qin is very good to us, and we are also at ease here." ”
"You must all be curious about who I am, right? ……”
Cold, the water girl threw out another question.
Xia Yejin was stunned for a moment, subconsciously raised her head, just met her eyes, and didn't know how to answer, but she stood up, slowly paced to Xia Yejin's side, as if inadvertently, she gently shook her hand, there was a coldness in the palm of her hand, she turned her head, with a soft smile on her face, "If you want to know, I can tell you when I come over at night......"
The voice was very soft and very good, Xia Yejin was almost about to agree, but someone patted her shoulder, she came back to her senses instantly, but saw Qin Yin walk in, looked at her and said, "Wang Bad is too busy in the shop, you go and help him." ”
Xia Yejin hurriedly nodded and agreed as if she had been amnesty, and then disappeared into the courtyard as quickly as she saw a ghost.
"What? Worried about me doing something to your little girl? ”
Shui Yun still maintained his previous smile and tilted his head to ask Qin Yin. Such a smile, lined with the lying silkworm under the eyes, actually gives people a sense of innocence.
Qin Yin didn't plan to pay attention to her, "Say, when are you going to return the Yuan Shen?" ”
Shui Yun looked aggrieved, "I have already taken it away, where can I return it?" And you know, I managed to collect some of them. ”
"Then I can only pay it back for you."
"You're going to do it to me?" The other party's eyes widened, and his movements suddenly became strange again, "You shouldn't have forgotten what Master said to you before leaving, right?" Or do you say that you have been in this world for too long and have forgotten how Master died back then? ”
Qin Yin pursed his lips tightly, and the lines on his face stiffened. He turned to look out the window, and the leaves and grass in the courtyard were withered, leaving only the branches of the cold plum in the corner of the wall still budding.
Seeing this, the other party knew that her words had begun to work, she still smiled, and also walked to the window and stood still, looking at Qin Yin's side face, "This is just a trivial matter, senior brother, don't worry too much." Seeing that he still didn't move, he pouted and said that this is not enough. I'll give back all the children's primordial spirits, but I can't pay back those who voluntarily promised as the price of the transaction.
It wasn't until she stayed in the shop for a long time and came into contact with many guests who came and went that Xia Yejin slowly recovered from the strange atmosphere just now, and she finally knew what was strange about the water girl.
