In the cherry blossom castle.

The three-tailed fox and Chen Yan have already started to work, and in the "slow life", their main thing to do is to receive those who come to consult.

Although this is only a small psychological clinic, but, as Chen Yan said, the business here is indeed very good.

"Is the boss there?"

A woman with delicate makeup asked Chen Yan.

"The boss has other customers for the time being, and if you have something, you can make an appointment a week in advance."

Chen Yan looked at the woman and replied to her.

This woman has been here many times, except for the first few times, Chen Yan received her well, and she answered like this every time in the future.

It's not that Chen Yan wants this, but the boss specifically asks for it.

Even when the boss was free, the boss would ask Chen Yan not to receive the woman, as for the reason, Chen Yan didn't know at all.

When Chen Yan sent the woman away again, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

The boss smiled and walked out of the room separated by the curtains, and the boss walked to a chair and sat down.

"Boss, why don't you receive that woman every time? Isn't she your customer? ”

Chen Yan looked at the boss, and finally asked his doubts.

Chen Yan has always been very concerned about this doubt, after all, such a thing is too difficult to understand.

"Chen Yan, you still don't understand, sometimes, rejecting others will make others feel more cherished. Let her wait a few more times, and the work will be easier in the future. ”

The boss looked at Chen Yan and replied to her.

Even though the boss has answered Chen Yan's question, Chen Yan is still in the clouds.

The boss always has a feeling that everything is in his calculations, but if he does this, will that woman really come all the time?

If the woman doesn't come, isn't it still the boss who loses?

……

When Gu Xuniao found Xia Qi, Xia Qi was already dead.

Xia Qi died in a river, the river water was not clean, and Xia Qi's body floated in the river, like a discarded waste.

"Why did you die in such a place?"

Gu Xuaniao looked at Xia Qi's corpse floating in the river, and his heart was full of doubts.

Gu Xuaniao just watched from a distance, and did not approach Xia Qi, nor did he go to fish for his corpse, in human society, dead people are always troublesome.

Gu Bird is a monster, so it's best not to get into such trouble.

"Master, Xia Qi died in a river."

At night, Gu Xuaniao returned to Chen Beibei's house and said to him.

"Do you know how he died?"

Chen Beibei asked.

Even though Chen Beibei was shocked when he heard the news, he still directly asked Gu Huoniao this question.

What Gu Xuaniao said, Chen Beibei would not doubt it.

"I don't know, I didn't go near him."

Gu Xuniao looked at Chen Beibei and replied to him.

This matter seems to have become more and more complicated, after all, if Xia Qi dies, Chen Beibei's mission will be over.

And Xia Qi's death is something that others will investigate.

Although he was a little unwilling, things were already like this, and Chen Beibei could only go to Xia Qi's wife's house for the time being and tell her the news of Xia Qi's death.

Xia Qi's body was quickly fished up, and there was an answer to Xia Qi's death.

He committed suicide by jumping into the river at around 3 a.m., and the scene of him jumping into the river happened to be filmed by the surveillance on the street.

For a person who commits suicide.

People don't always care too much about it, and it's going to be over.

……

Why did Xia Qi commit suicide?

This question should be something that many people will think about, including all the people who know Xia Qi, but none of them are Xia Qi, so there is basically no way to come up with a result.

Xia Qi first ran away from home, and then became a beggar, and the time that passed was only a short two or three days.

Then.

Xia Qi's wife entrusted Chen Beibei to find Xia Qi back.

Chen Beibei found Xia Qi, but Xia Qi didn't want to go back with Chen Beibei, and finally Xia Qi went to the "Slow Life" psychological clinic.

At last.

It was taken by the surveillance, and the picture of Xia Qi's suicide was taken.

And so it ended.

With Xia Qi's death, people will no longer track this matter, and everyone continues to live their lives as always.

……

Night.

In the courtyard of Chen Beibei's house, the gods sat around a large table, on which were osmanthus wine and some dishes.

It's a parting meal.

The update of the system task means that Chen Beibei will leave Qinghe Town again and go to Jiyuan Island.

However, Chen Beibei has not told everyone about this matter for the time being.

"Chen Yan, today I want to say something......"

Chen Beibei looked at Chen Yan and said to her.

Leaving Qinghe Town, Chen Beibei felt most uneasy, naturally Chen Yan, after all, Chen Yan was brought out by himself.

Before that.

Chen Yan has always lived in Sanquan Village.

It is a small village surrounded by mountains, which is relatively backward, and the folk customs are relatively simple, without so many routines and traps.

"What's the matter?"

Chen Yan looked at Chen Beibei and asked suspiciously.

"Tomorrow we are leaving Qinghe Town again because there are some things that must be done. But this time I should be back soon......"

Chen Beibei looked at Chen Yan and replied to her.

At this time, Chen Beibei can only say the matter directly, after all, he is leaving tomorrow, and if he doesn't say it now, then tomorrow will also be known by Chen Yan.

Instead of that, it is better to let Chen Yan be mentally prepared first, so that it will not seem too abrupt at that time.

"Let's have a drink."

Chen Beibei continued.

Hearing the news that Chen Beibei and the others were leaving, Chen Yan and the three-tailed fox were both a little depressed, and everyone didn't speak.

So Chen Beibei had no choice but to raise his cup to break this atmosphere.

"Well, let's have a drink."

The three-tailed fox also raised his cup.

The meal didn't say much, just drank wine and talked about topics that didn't matter.

……

Early the next morning, before the sun rose, Chen Beibei left with the gods.

Same as before.

Only the three-tailed fox was left at home to accompany Chen Yan.

No...... There is also a painted wall, but the painted wall usually exists in the form of a wall, so the sense of presence is a little low.

"Chen Beibei, you must come back early."

Chen Yan looked at Chen Beibei and said to him.

Chen Yan, who originally said that he would not send Chen Beibei, was finally sent to the stone bridge in Qinghe Town.

"Well, Chen Yan, when you are at home by yourself, be more careful. If there's anything to do, let the three-tailed fox help you. ”

Chen Beibei looked at Chen Yan and said to her.

"I got it......"

Chen Yan replied.

Chen Beibei walked towards Luoying City with the gods, and then took a car all the way, left Luoying City, and went to a farther place.

Yoshiwara Islands.

In a far, far place, at least, you have to pass through many cities before you can get there, and it should take a lot of time on the way.

No one knows what they will encounter along the way.

"Master, where are we going this time?"

Zashiki looked at Chen Beibei and asked him.

Regarding the matter of going to Jiyuan Island to rescue Shiranui, Chen Beibei only told Guan Hu, and the other Shikin did not know for the time being.

"It's a long way off, but this time, it should be easier."

Chen Beibei looked at the Zashiki boy and replied to her.

Rescue Shiranui.

At least in Chen Beibei's heart, compared to the task of defeating the drunken boy, it is much simpler.

Of course.

What exactly will happen is not yet known.

……

on the train.

Chen Beibei took a long time to take the train, and except for the Zashiki boy, the other Shikjin stayed in the courtyard.

"Zashiki boy, I'll go to the courtyard to take a look, if there is any situation, call me directly."

Chen Beibei looked at the boy and said to her.

"Hmm."

Zashiki looked at Chen Beibei and replied.

Chen Beibei hadn't been to the courtyard for a long time, and now he happened to have nothing to do on the train, and it was still a long time.

So just go to the courtyard and have some fun.

Chen Beibei is a human being, and if he enters the courtyard, he only enters the consciousness, not the physical body, while monsters and the like can enter them all.

Old cherry blossom trees, small bridges, ponds, rows of wooden houses, and mountains in the distance.

This is the scene that Chen Beibei saw as soon as he entered the courtyard.

The courtyard feels like a paradise, but of course, there is a downside to it, which is that it is lifeless.

Compared with the outside world, the lights are bright, and the courtyard is much more single.

"Master, why are you here......"

When Yingcao saw Chen Beibei enter the courtyard, she hurriedly ran towards Chen Beibei.

"I'm bored outside, just come in and have a look."

Chen Beibei replied.

The only people living in the courtyard are the three siblings, their dog, Tomato.

"Where are they?"

Chen Beibei looked at Yingcao and asked her.

Yingcao pointed to the forest in the distance, and then replied, "They went to play in the forest, and now the three brothers and sisters seem to play there every day." ”

The forest in the courtyard had been explored by Chen Beibei before.

But after walking for a long time, I didn't come to the end, as if it was boundless. Moreover, there are no animals in that forest, which is a little gloomy because the branches and leaves block the sun. In the absence of animals, it is even more unsettling.

Therefore, Chen Beibei's last exploration was only fruitless.

"Yingcao, let's go find them."

Chen Beibei looked at Yingcao and said to her.

When Chen Beibei came in, Yingcao was sitting on the stone bench under the cherry blossom tree, lying on the table folding a thousand paper cranes, and now there are three or four folded paper cranes on the table.

"Well, wait until I'm done folding this one."

Yingcao replied.

Although Yingcao doesn't look like a girl who can fold paper, Yingcao is often able to do well when she is serious about things.

"Why do you have to fold a thousand paper cranes?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Ah...... Sister Hopping said it was pretty, so I was going to fold it a little more for her......"

Yingcao replied while carefully folding the paper crane in her hand.

Sister Hopping is the youngest of the three zombie siblings, and the most lively and cute one, under the protection of the two older brothers.

Even though Sister Hopping has become a zombie, she doesn't feel that becoming a zombie is much different from a human.

That.

Sister Hopping accepted that she was a zombie without any pain.

In this regard, the two elder brothers of the Hopping Sister are doing very well, and it can also be seen that the Hopping Brother and the Hopping Brother love the Hopping Sister

……

Forest.

The forest in the courtyard, even though it is already autumn, is still not much different from summer, and there will be seasonal changes in the courtyard.

But the changes in scenery are not very noticeable.

As the seasons change, some scenery changes, indicating that the seasons have changed. Most of the scenery is the same.

"Yingcao, is there anything interesting in the forest?"

Chen Beibei looked at Yingcao and asked her.

"I don't know, maybe it's because the forest is a mysterious and unknown place for the three brothers and sisters, so they like to go there to play."

Yingcao replied.

Yingcao's answer made Chen Beibei can't help but have some thoughts, although the space of the courtyard is infinite, the scene inside looks very beautiful.

But.

Most of these things are one layer of constant.

Like Chen Beibei, who doesn't come in often, every time he looks at it, he will feel very beautiful, but if he lives in it for a long time, he should feel very boring.

What's more, youkai generally have a very long lifespan.

The permission given by the system to turn on the courtyard construction function is probably aimed at this. In a sense, with the permission to build a courtyard, the courtyard may be able to become a more suitable space for living, or even a place beyond the outside world.

"Looks like we have to finish the task sooner."

Chen Beibei couldn't help but make up his mind in his heart to complete the task of ignorant fire.

……

The three brothers and the other Shikigami were found in the depths of the forest, and when they were found, it was already night

Chen Beibei and Yingcao both walked for six or seven hours in a row.

"The host is coming......"

When Gu Huoniao saw Chen Beibei, he reminded the other gods.

The gods all looked at Chen Beibei, and the gods looked a little surprised, but more of them were happy to be able to see Chen Beibei here.

"Hop and Hop three brothers and sisters, what are you doing here? We walked for a long time before we caught up. ”

Chen Beibei looked at the three brothers and sisters and asked them.

"Master, we're looking for herbs that can suppress Sister Hopping's illness, and they're almost running out."

Brother Hopping replied.
