In the ancient city of Liangxi, at the end of October when winter was approaching, sparse and sparse light rain began to fall again as in previous years. The people of Liangxi are accustomed to the light rain of the next month, and people walking on the street look commonplace, and if they stop a pedestrian and ask, they will probably get "just like there is a rainy season twice a year." Answer.

Longtangfang opened its doors on the first day of rain. Strange to say, this shop does not seem to the owners of other shops in the surrounding area to make money at all, and it opens for four months every year, in June, July and October, as if it is open for business during the rainy season, and the day it closes is the end of the rainy season. This shop has been open here for 20 years, and this street is full of old shops from a hundred years ago.

The owner of the shop is a man who likes to drink tea, and has the temperament of a traditional Jiangnan person like water and the height that does not conform to the traditional Jiangnan people. The size of 1.92 meters stands out in the entire Longtang Street, and has become a benchmark for every mother in Longtang Street to coax their children to eat: "Good, if you eat well, you can grow as tall and beautiful as Uncle Bai next door!" ”

The boss's name is Bai Yuan, and he has two cats, a black cat and a white cat. There was a young man in the shop, who held a small broom all day and looked like he hadn't woken up, but he was quick with his hands and feet, and there was nothing wrong with him except that he couldn't speak. The store sells all kinds of trinkets and ancient costumes Hanfu, in fact, most of the clothes are made by the boss, some customers have ordered the clothes and measured the size after three days can come to pick up the clothes, the speed can be said to be the fastest one of all Hanfu custom stores.

This is where our story begins.

###############################

Today is a rare day without rain, Bai Yuan is lying listlessly on the table in the store, a customer has just come to pick up the clothes, and there are no new orders for the time being. Bai Yuan, who was idle, touched a brush to tease the two cats licking each other's hair, the wind chimes on the door were blown by the wind and made a tinkling sound, the sunlight hit the workbench through the glass, and even the cloth was showing a gentle color. The crow yawned, stretched, and picked up the broom, having a hunch that there would be other business today. Bai Yuan looked up at the time, half past three in the afternoon. He turned his head and told the wooden crow to close the door, and the air was filled with a different sweet fragrance today.

The red sandalwood door was halfway closed, and suddenly there was a crisp sound outside: "Hey! Don't close the door! ”

Bai Yuan's face changed suddenly, even the two cats were blown up, and the wooden crow closed the door with a "bang", and he still looked like he was apprehensive when he put on the two deadbolts. The owner of the Peach Blossom Tavern next door who saw this scene almost laughed, poked his head out of the window on the second floor and greeted the little girl in the red dress who was standing at the door of Longtang Fang with a smile: "Hey, the Mei family doll is here again." The little girl raised her head in response, turned her head and continued to shout at the wooden door, "Bai Yuan, open the door!" Don't hide inside and keep quiet! I know you're at home! ”

After arguing for a long time, the bitter-faced wooden crow came out and pulled the little girl who was bouncing outside, and the little girl brought the door with a "bang", and the copper bell hanging on the door rang three times, and the bosses who were watching the excitement outside retracted their heads unsatisfied.

Mei Xiangqi, who entered the door, looked at the two people and two cats who looked like they were about to be enemies, changed their usual jump, and knelt opposite Bai Yuan, who hurriedly put away his collection, with a serious expression, and his demeanor was so serious that the wooden crows thought that she had been taken away.

"Something's wrong?" Bai Yuan looked at her with a solemn face, carefully put away the three-headed canine teeth in his hand, and after throwing them into the Qiankun bag, he breathed a sigh of relief, and raised his head and asked.

"Not really, but it's up to you this time." Mei Xiangqi raised her eyes to look at him, reached out and took out a dagger from her sleeve, the small blade was glowing with cold light, she held the dagger, and slashed her wrist without blinking, her wrist flipped, and the bright red blood dripped on the table into a puddle, and the air was instantly filled with blood, and Bai Yuanzhi frowned.

"I hate this kind of blood law book of the Mei family the most, this taste is really enough." The black cat scratched its ears dissatisfiedly, and its nose wrinkled with disgust.

Mei Xiangqi glanced at the black cat, stretched out his hand and pointed at the center of the blood puddle, the red blood began to boil and gather in the middle, and finally formed a bewitching flower.

"Suzu goblin?" Bai Yuan stared at the flower in surprise, "Is it so tricky?" ”

"It's okay," Mei Xiangqi pulled out a smile that was more ugly than crying, "The one from the Zhan family has already fallen in, and I haven't been saved with the Yu family." The Qiu family even had their clan land destroyed, but in the end, the Qiu family was still alive, although it was no different from dead, it all relied on the heart beads to hang a sigh of relief. It is possible to go to Meng Po's for a drink of soup at any time. ”

"What the hell, what else can I do when all four of you are like this?" Bai Yuan frowned, "What's the use of thinking about me now, I was split into eight sections before, and my whole body was cultivated and even the tendons were pumped, and I am not much stronger than mortals now." ”

Mei Xiangqi smiled and took out a water-blue bead from his arms. When he saw the beads, Bai Yuan's eyes changed instantly, his whole face began to become hideous, and the arm on the table faintly showed traces of scales. The bead drew a beautiful arc in the air, and Bai Yuan hurriedly caught the bead and carefully held it in the palm of his hand, although his facial expression was still hideous, his eyes revealed confusion.

"Sent by the Zhan family before their disappearance, I think you may be interested." Mei Xiangqi smiled, "And if you leave in advance, you think about it, and tell me if you think about it." She got up and walked out, and when she pulled the door, she raised her eyes and looked at the copper bell on the door, "Tsk, your domain is actually placed here, it's really long-term love." ”

The red sandalwood door creaked softly, and the whole space fell silent after the brass bell rang three times. The two cats jumped down from the Bogu shelf, turned into two boys, and sat quietly beside Bai Yuan.

Staring at the bead for half an hour, Bai Yuan sighed, the whole person relaxed, took out a delicate wooden box and carefully put the beads in, and turned around from Bailongxuan back to Longtang Fang, the sunlight outside was still warm, and the blood-colored bell fairy that bloomed on the workbench was shaken from side to side by the wind and the petals were shaken. Bai Yuan stared at the flower, and suddenly heard the song mixed with the murmuring of the waves, but he knew that he was not facing the sea anymore, and there was a sound of dogs barking outside the window, mixed with the sound of the neighbor's aunt calling his children to come home for dinner, full of fireworks in the world.
