029, Blue Mountain Coffee
Cheng Hantao unexpectedly showed up at my house on Saturday morning.
I wondered when he arrived, and he behaved strangely to me.
"Xiaoxue, do you have time today? I'll take you to a nice place in the evening, it's a newly opened coffee shop, and the coffee there is absolutely superb. Cheng Hantao snapped his fingers as he spoke.
"Coffee?" I asked incomprehensibly.
"Yes, coffee, there is only tea during the day, there is all kinds of tea, but there is no alcohol and coffee-based drinks, but at night, there is only coffee." Cheng Hantao raised his eyebrows when he said, looking very proud.
In my memory, Cheng Hantao is a very stable person, although he often has a funny and humorous side, but such frivolous expressions and movements are not zài, what's wrong with him?
"It's a little bit different from his usual life." Lin Haoran leaned into my ear and said.
"Well, I don't feel quite right, either." I responded softly, and it seemed that Lin Haoran and I felt the same way.
"How? Come with me in the evening. Cheng Hantao raised his eyebrows at me, and then whistled very loudly.
"Okay, you can pick me up in the evening." I decided to figure out what was going on.
Cheng Hantao left happily, while Lin Haoran and I fell into deep thought.
"The senior's cousin is a little too abnormal, what could be the reason?" I muttered quietly.
"Maybe he's been bewitched, he doesn't even know what he's doing now." Lin Haoran pouted.
"Bewitched? Who bewitched him? What are you trying to do with him? I turned my head to look at Lin Haoran.
"Trick him into finding more people to go there, and then trick everyone into finding people again, but I really don't know what he is going to do." Lin Haoran looked at me deeply.
"Isn't that dangerous?" I frowned.
"Well, this should be a dangerous yin spirit doing something, but it's not too scary." Lin Haoran chuckled.
"No matter what, I must save my senior." I said firmly, I don't care what kind of dangerous yin spirit it is, if it dares to touch the people around me, it will come to an end.
When we came to the coffee shop he said with Cheng Hantao, I understood.
It's really a very atmospheric coffee shop, in fact, this shop is not new at all, this shop has been here for at least five years, but I don't usually notice its storage zài.
It's just that Bai Lili and I have been there twice, because the flower tea here is very delicious, but the business of this shop is really not very good, there are usually few people, and it is really not easy to save zài here for five years.
Today, however, it looks like it's a very different place, business here is surprisingly good, and it should be described as overcrowded.
A lot of people didn't even have a seat, just standing there drinking with a coffee cup in their hands, and all of them had an obsessive expression on their faces, which made me more sure that there must be something wrong here.
After Lin Haoran and I glanced at each other, we walked towards the coffee shop together, Cheng Hantao had already squeezed into the store early, and I didn't know where he was at this time.
As soon as we entered, a very handsome waiter opened the door for us and politely said, "Welcome." ”
I smiled at him, "Handsome man, can you show me your coffee maker?" ”
"Yes, he's at the bar, and my coffee is made on site." The handsome waiter pointed forward, and I followed his hand to see the tightly walled bar.
Lin Haoran and I didn't rush in, but stood on the periphery and quietly observed, through the crowd, we saw the coffee maker, to be precise, a handsome guy who made coffee.
We watched him, and he felt our gaze, and he looked at us through the crowd and nodded at us, which made me laugh, because from that glance I read his thoughts: "You're finally here." ”
"He's waiting for us to show up." I whispered close to Lin Haoran and said.
"This kid did it on purpose." Lin Haoran also smiled, it seems that today's events are not too dangerous.
The lively coffee shop closed at 12 midnight, and Lin Haoran and I sat in a rest chair under the shade of a tree outside the door, because we knew that he must have asked for something to bring us in.
After the lights in the coffee shop were turned off, we saw the handsome guy making coffee standing in front of the door waving to us, Lin Haoran and I looked at each other and smiled, stood up and walked into the coffee shop together holding hands.
Sitting in the dark café, I was not scared at all, because the two handsome guys sitting in front of us were really eye-catching, Lin Haoran couldn't help but pull my hand and let me come back to my senses, when I turned my head to look at him, his thoughts made me laugh out loud, "Is it that good-looking?" Why keep staring. ”
I cleared my throat and tried to face the two handsome guys in front of me with a straight face, but after a while I looked at them with a smile on my face.
"Tell me, you must have something to do with us, right?" Lin Haoran spoke first, he thought that if he didn't open his mouth again, I would definitely not be able to ask anything, because I was already fascinated by the two people in front of me.
"I brought you here on purpose, I just want you to do me a favor." The handsome guy who made coffee said with a smile.
"Just say it, don't laugh, don't you see that she can't control herself?" Lin Haoran said to me with a cold face and sarcastically at all.
"What, why can't I control it?" I turned my head to look at Lin Haoran unhappily.
No matter how you say it, it's in front of two handsome guys, he doesn't have to say that, as if I'm a nymphomaniac.
"Originally, do you think you're in a state since you entered the house?" Lin Haoran tapped me unceremoniously.
"Ah, it hurts." I covered the place where he knocked and looked at Lin Haoran angrily.
Lin Haoran saw that my attention returned to him, so he laughed and rubbed it with his hand, and our non-professional appearance made the two handsome guys on the other side laugh.
"Okay, the show is over, let's talk about the purpose of our visit." After I smiled sweetly at Lin Haoran, I turned my head and looked at the two handsome guys opposite.
"Huh?" Both of them were taken aback by my sudden change of expression, and both looked at me in amazement.
"I just want you to help me pass the word to the female owner of this shop, let her stay in this shop, and tell her about my method of making Blue Mountain coffee, so that this little shop of her can be lived." The handsome guy making coffee looked at me seriously.
"You love her so much, don't you?" I saw what he was thinking.
"Yes, I love her very much, I think it's really not easy for her to support this store alone, and it's still in such a bad situation." The handsome guy nodded to me.
"Hmm...... Come on, let's follow the rules, what's the name. I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Yang Chen." The handsome guy who made coffee replied.
"What about you?" I looked at another handsome guy sitting next to him and asked.
"I didn't ask you for help, do I have to sue you?" The handsome guy looked at us with the corners of his mouth raised.
"It's lucky that you've met the Soul Rim Master, so you're going to have to talk about it." I looked at him with the corners of my mouth raised.
"Whew...... Guan Xiao. "The handsome guy was finally blindfolded by me.
Lin Haoran smiled and touched my head, I grinned after hearing this, and immediately Guan Xiao realized that he had been fooled.
"Tell me, how did you end up here?" I looked at the two of them and lifted my chin.
"We were roommates in the hospital together, we both had the same disease and lived in the same ward, so I decided to come here to make coffee, and he came with me." What Yang Chen said was relatively simple and general, which made me listen to it very hard.
"In other words, you are still alive, but your soul has left your body, are you in a coma or a vegetative state?" I chuckled.
"Vegetative." The two spoke together.
I nodded, it seems that these two people really have a tacit understanding, "Are vegetative people also contagious?" Together? Still living together in the same ward? ”
Yang Chen and Guan Xiao glanced at each other, both lowered their heads, and then Yang Chen said softly: "Because the two of us had an accident together, we were admitted to the hospital together, because the economic conditions of both of us are not very good, so we can only live together to facilitate the care of our families." ”
"What accident, car accident?" This is the only possibility I can think of.
"Yes, a bus was knocked over, and we were both in this bus." Guan Xiao looked up at me.
"Only the two of you survived?" My heart is blocked, isn't it, there are only these two people left in a car?
"We really don't know about others, when the car overturned down the mountain, and after arriving at the hospital for rescue, we were declared vegetative, and we just left the body, and in the hospital, there were only two of us." Yang Chen explained to me.
I glanced at Lin Haoran and licked my lips a little helplessly.
Lin Haoran reached out and put his arm around my shoulder, "The female shopkeeper here, how did you meet?" ”
Yang Chen smiled, that kind of very happy smile, "She is a very good girl, she has been running a shop here alone for four or five years, I often come here to sit when I was in college, the environment here is very quiet, but her coffee here is really difficult to drink, but the tea is very delicious." ”
"Well, the coffee here is really not good, but the flower tea is really good." I nodded and smiled in response to Yang Chen's statement.
"You've been here too?" Yang Chen looked at me in surprise.
"Yes, I've been here when I was in college, and reading here is a good choice." I smiled.
"This girl is not easy, I just want her business to be better, life better, I also want to teach him how to make coffee, but I don't know how to tell her, now I can't say anything, if she sees me now, she will be scared to death." Yang Chen smiled bitterly.
"That's why you remembered to ask us for help, why did you bring us in instead of coming directly to us? Do you know or not, it's dangerous for you to do this. I looked at Yang Chen with some reproach.
"I'm sorry, I originally wanted to find you, but I was afraid that after teaching her the method, she still wouldn't be able to attract so many customers, and the business would still not be good, so I discussed with Guan Xiao and decided to try it first, and then teach her if the business is good, so that she can sell coffee and tea together, and the business will be better." Yang Chen looked at us apologetically.
Lin Haoran looked at them with appreciation, "How did you learn this method of making coffee?" ”
"I used a lot of methods, first I looked it up in the computer, then I went to work in a famous coffee shop in the city for a while, and I tried to brew it myself until I mastered how to make Blue Mountain coffee." Yang Chen laughed proudly, and Guan Xiao beside him gave him a punch, which was regarded as an encouragement to him.
Looking at the two people in front of me, I really didn't know what to say, I pouted and thought for a while and suddenly looked up at them, "How about making us a cup too, but I want to drink the kind that is not bewitching." ”
"Huh? Oh, okay. "Yang Chen was very uncomfortable with my sudden change of thinking.
"Oops, Cher." Lin Haoran looked at me with tears and laughter.
"Sister, you're really cute." Guan Xiao was finally forced out by me to say a long sentence.
"I don't drink coffee here, I just listen to him, I don't think it's appropriate, wouldn't it be nice to talk while drinking." I smiled at Lin Haoran.
"You, really." Lin Haoran was speechless, just rubbed it on my head.
"What about you, you just want to follow Yang Chen like this, fulfill his wish, and then go back to the hospital? Do you want to live, or do you want to just wander around? I turned my head and looked at Guan Xiao seriously.
"Sister, your thinking is jumping too fast." Guan Xiao laughed, "I didn't think about it, anyway, I'm just alone at home, if I live, I have to continue my life alone, if I die like this, I may be better." ”
"Boy, you're too negative, aren't you, what do you mean it's better to die? Is there really no nostalgia at all to be alive? I looked at him with a chuckle.
From the very beginning, I could see that his problems were stricter than Yang Chen's, and he was the one who needed my help.
"Sister, I haven't thought about it yet, I don't know what I want, when I think about it, I'll tell you again, okay?" Guan Xiao's evasive gaze let me know that he must be worried, but he was just not sure.
"Guan Xiao, there is only one human life, and many people have regrets at the end of their lives, so there is the existence of the soul Yuandu Master, we are at the request of the Yin Spirit to complete the task, if the Yin Spirit has no wish and is unwilling to leave, there will be a senior Yuan Du Master to invite these Yin Spirits to leave, life is not a child's play, think about the direction you want to face and work hard in the future, this is what you have to do." Lin Haoran's eyes were also cold, his words were the first time I heard them, and only then did I understand what the responsibilities of the senior Yuandu Master were.
"Guan Xiao, if the person is really dead, it is impossible to do anything else." I stared at Guan Xiao because his expression let me know that he really had something he couldn't let go.
"Guan Xiao, do you dare to look at me?" I raised an eyebrow at Guan Xiao.
Guan Xiao didn't understand and looked at me, I immediately seized this opportunity, we looked at each other for about 10 minutes, and my thoughts were clearly seen by me.
"Guan Xiao, living alone, it will really be very lonely and lonely, but do you know? Sometimes when I'm alone, I do a lot of things, just like me, I'm living alone, and I'm doing things that other living people can't do. I raised the corners of my mouth.
"But I'm not ready." Guan Xiao looked at me uncertainly.
"While you are now a Yin Spirit, you can wander around, the things around you may make you change your mind, you will have a lot of things, why can't you show it? Wouldn't it be great to benefit more people? I smiled at him.
"What's the situation?" Lin Haoran stretched out his head and asked me.
"Guan Xiao is amazing, he is the champion of the provincial martial arts competition, and he sings well, if he can open a martial arts class and teach some women's self-defense techniques or something, there will definitely be a lot of girls signing up." I smiled and praised Guan Xiao to Lin Haoran.
"Really? That's good. Lin Haoran raised his eyebrows and agreed with my point of view.
"Sister, there is a fee for starting a class, I am a poor student, I just graduated, how can I have so many funds, don't be kidding." Guan Xiao shook his head disapprovingly.
"I'll help you solve the matter of funds, anyway, I still have a senior who is a capitalist." I laughed.
Lin Haoran immediately hugged me in his arms and warned me with a smile, "Don't blame me for not warning you, don't get so close to Cheng Hantao and Yan Xucheng, I'll be angry." ”
"Yikes! Why are you so stingy? I'm helping people, what a great cause, if you don't contribute, forget it, in fact, you are the biggest capitalist here. I pouted and tapped my hand on his shoulder.
"Haha, too." Lin Haoran nodded calmly, "I'll tell you my personal account number and password tomorrow, you can transfer money online, and you don't need to borrow it from them." “
"I'm not, you're in the same situation as them now, if I move your money, then I won't be reported to the Public Security Bureau, I won't." I pursed my lips and glared at him, how could he think like a child, he didn't have any intelligence at all.
"No, that account is my private, only I know, and the money on it was originally deposited for you." Lin Haoran touched my head with his hand, and there was a lot of love.
Guan Xiao looked at the affectionate appearance of the two of us, and laughed, "Sister, brother, don't say it, I listen to you, as soon as Yang Chen's matter is over, I will go back, and then I will go to you when I am well, I will definitely not let you down." ”
"Well, that's right. As long as people live, there will be hope, I am optimistic about you. I smiled and pointed at him.
At this time, Yang Chen came over with two cups of coffee and took a sip of the coffee he brewed, I couldn't help but give a thumbs up, and Lin Haoran also nodded.
"Tell me, how do you want to tell her the method?" I took another sip and looked up at Yang Chen.
"I want to teach her personally." Yang Chen looked at me carefully.
"Okay, then you can go back to the hospital now, go back to your own body, and be a new person." I said with a smile.
"Huh?" The two of them looked at me together, surprised.
"That's what you understand, and only when you come back to this world can you fulfill your own wishes." I raised an eyebrow.
"What Xue'er means is that you are not dead at all, there is still hope of living, and your wishes must be fulfilled by yourself." Lin Haoran explained to them, "Teach her how to make coffee in person, that's what you have to do." ”
"Well, I see." Yang Chen laughed understandingly.
"Oh, by the way, what about the people who drank your bewitched coffee here, it won't always be like this, right?" I looked at Yang Chen and Guan Xiao with inquiring eyes.
"Ah, those people will be fine, and they will be back in two days." Yang Chen and Guan Xiao laughed.
"Oh, that's good, I'm really afraid that Cheng Hantao has always been like that, like a little **, and I can't stand it." I whispered to myself.
"You still say you don't care, you haven't been at ease, have you?" Lin Haoran said and knocked on my head again.
"Ah, it hurts." I screamed loudly and looked at him with a wrinkled face.
"Who told you to think about him in front of me, there was a Li Jianfei before, and now there is Cheng Hantao, what do you want me to do?" Lin Haoran looked at me without showing weakness.
"Really, why are you so stingy." I pouted helplessly.
And the two handsome guys on the opposite side laughed out loud without giving face at all.
Lin Haoran and I weren't used to them, and shouted loudly at them, "Shut up." ”
The two of them immediately shut up and looked at us with a smile.
Yang Chen and Guan Xiao really listened to us and went back to the hospital, because I went to the hospital to visit them the next day, they all woke up, the doctor said it was a "miracle", the family was in tears of joy, and they also recognized me, nodded and smiled at me, I saw that they were really awake, and they also walked out of the hospital with a happy smile, this may be the happiest mission since I became a soul crosser.
