After a busy day of teaching, Fang Rui had the opportunity to go back to the office and put down the textbook, and was taken out by Bai Jingjing to find Hu Yue. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I've found Hu Yue'e's residence in the staff file, let's go!" Bai Jingjing dragged Fang Rui out of the school gate.

"You can see at a glance that Hu Yue'e is a vixen, will she also see you?" Fang Rui was a little worried.

"Do you think bookstore clerks are vegetarians?" Bai Jingjing glared at Fang Rui, and then revealed a ring on the ring finger of his left hand that looked like a ruby, and explained to Fang Rui, "This ring is something that every clerk will have, of course, you don't need to be a person." Because its function is to disguise our original identity, so that others, including other ghosts, think that we are just ordinary humans. ”

"There's something like this, then I'm relieved." Fang Rui nodded, at least now Hu Yue'e didn't know Bai Jingjing's identity, so she could always be surprised.

Although the small county town is not big, it took Bai Jingjing and Fang Rui more than forty minutes to find Hu Yue'e's home, an extremely dilapidated small courtyard, and even the gate was broken with a small hole.

Pushing open the door, Hu Yue'e happened to be washing fish in the yard, as Bai Jingjing said, sure enough, not every fox spirit is a beauty, and Hu Yue'e in front of her looks like a very ordinary woman, and even her skin is a little black and yellow. A very old, wrinkled old woman was sitting on a chair looking at her with a kind face. The entry of Bai Jingjing and Fang Rui made Hu Yue'e nervous and even the fish slipped to the ground, and after being stunned for a moment, she put the knife that scraped the fish scales in front of her, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes: "You... How did you guys get here? "Her fox pine fungus has never missed, why are these two people actually not doing anything at all? She obviously watched Bai Jingjing take a bite of the bun.

Bai Jingjing didn't answer, but spun the ruby ring in front of Hu Yue, and Hu Yue'e and the old woman's faces immediately showed frightened expressions.

"It's not Satsuki's fault, if you want to blame me, the old woman!" The old woman struggled to get up from her chair and pulled Hu Yue'e behind her.

"Don't be nervous, you two, you didn't kill anyone, and even if you did, I don't want to care. I'm just wondering why you're doing this? What's going on with the fluctuation of the book of fortune in the school? Bai Jingjing is also simply, for her, human life is far less important than the book of life, and those teachers who are fascinated by the fox pine fungus are not in danger of life.

Hu Yue'e turned around and pressed the old woman back into the chair, regardless of the old woman's desperate life, she pulled the corner of her clothes and gently patted her shoulder, the old woman let go of her hand a little helplessly, but her face was full of worry.

"Now that you can see it, I don't want to hide it anymore, yes, those sick teachers did eat the food I gave them with fox fungus. But if you don't die, you will lie in the hospital for a few more days at most. I did this just to get someone in the school to do something, after all, this school is still very important to him. Hu Yue'e put the knife down and said.

"Who is he referring to?" Bai Jingjing asked.

"You're all here, and you must be aware of the fluctuations in the book here. I've actually been an employee of this school all along, after all, the vixen also needs to earn money to support the family. Just three weeks ago, I felt the fluctuation of the book of destiny in the school, and this fluctuation was on the principal Xu Kai, every time he appeared within a hundred meters of me, I could clearly feel that this was the feeling of the activation of the book of life. It's a pity that although I'm a vixen, I don't have any mana, and besides, our vixen's sixth sense of predicting danger is particularly strong, so I don't dare to touch him, and I don't even have the courage to give him the fox pine fungus. Hu Yue'e was still a little scared when she spoke, and her ears really looked like a fox that was testing danger, maybe this is the instinct of animals.

"Then what's the use of you feeding those teachers?" Fang Rui felt very strange.

Because Xu Kai is 59 years old and has reached retirement age, and his family still has a 100-year-old grandmother to take care of, the school is usually presided over by the vice principal, and he rarely comes to the school unless something happens at the school. Therefore, I gave those teachers a meal of fox pine mushrooms, and I wanted him to come to school more often, so that I could have a chance to start. Hu Yue'e explained.

"Didn't you say you didn't dare touch him?" Fang Rui asked.

"I don't dare anymore and can't afford to wait, because 。。。。。" After Hu Yue'e finished speaking, she glanced back at the old woman sitting on the chair, and then gently hugged the old woman into her arms, "She can't afford to wait, she only has more than a month left to live at most." ”

Fang Rui glanced at Bai Jingjing strangely, what is the relationship between these two people? It doesn't always feel like an ordinary mother-daughter relationship. Bai Jingjing seemed to have guessed something, and sighed before saying, "Even if you get the loose leaf of the Book of Destiny, you can only recover the mana of one of you." ”

"I'm not rare in any mana, as long as she can recover it." Hu Yue's eyes were very resolute at this time.

"I'm not unusual!" The old woman's voice was old but firm, and she smiled and said to Bai Jingjing and Fang Rui, "You persuade her, I am not rare in mana and I am not afraid of death, as long as she doesn't take risks." ”

Bai Jingjing frowned, this kind of thing is not something that others can persuade in a few words, "Thank you for telling us about Xu Kai, you must know that once the bookstore interferes in the matter of the book of life, no other mistakes are allowed." I can't do anything about the two of you, so please do it yourself. ”

After speaking, Bai Jingjing left without looking back, Fang Rui hurriedly followed, before leaving, he glanced back at Hu Yue'e and the old woman, the two hugged each other tightly, the unknown petals and leaves rolled up in the night wind fluttered gently around them, this scene made Fang Rui feel very beautiful at this moment, even if Hu Yue'e and the old woman were not beauties.

"They... Fang Rui also vaguely guessed something, but he didn't dare to confirm it, so he had to ask Bai Jingjing.

"Both of them are vixens, and they are vixens who have been deprived of their mana. The old one seems to have been injured, so there is no way to stay young like Hu Yue, and his vitality is running out, and he should die soon. I think this is also the reason why Hu Yue'e took the risk to obtain the loose pages of the book of life, and only the loose pages of the book of life can be reinstated. Bai Jingjing said.

"I was deprived of my mana because ... Because the two of them love each other? Although Fang Rui is a little introverted, it doesn't mean that he is stupid, the exchange of eyes and movements between Hu Yue'e and the old woman made him guess the relationship between the two, and it is not the opposite sex that can only love each other.

"I guess so." Bai Jingjing was not sure.

"What's this? There is a lot of same-sex love in our human society, and there is no criminal punishment, at most it is not accepted by some people. Fang Rui felt very strange.

"Hehe, that's you humans. For youkai, same-sex love is absolutely not allowed, but being deprived of mana is already considered extraordinarily gracious. In this regard, you humans are more open-minded. Bai Jingjing replied.

"It's rare to hear praise from your lips about us human beings!" Fang Rui was a little proud, it seemed that human beings were not Bai Jingjing who said nothing, "What should I do next?" ”

"Looking for Xu Kai!" Bai Jingjing replied.

"Go now? Do you know the address of Xu Kai's house? Fang Rui asked.

"Of course, I wrote down the entire school teacher-staff contact booklet. We have to hurry up, even the fox spirit who has been deprived of mana can feel the fluctuation of the life book on Xu Kai's body, and it is estimated that other monsters have also noticed it. Bai Jingjing pulled Fang Rui and got on a bus and went to the eastern district of the county.

Xu Kai is worthy of being the principal, and the place where he lives is much more upscale than Hu Yue'e's house, and a self-built small western-style building is Xu Kai's home. It's a pity that before Bai Jingjing and Fang Rui could make a move, there was a loud bang followed by a burst of fire, and the small western-style building was already in the sea of fire.

In the firelight, the surrounding neighbors came out to put out the fire, and soon the small western-style building was surrounded by the crowd. Bai Jingjing said to Fang Rui: "I'm going to chase that guy, you go back to school first." ”

Fang Rui followed Bai Jingjing's eyes, it was a middle-aged man standing in the crowd watching the excitement, his black and white hair stood up on his head, and his garlic-sized nose was very eye-catching.

Who is he? Before Fang Rui could ask, Bai Jingjing had already walked quickly towards the man, and the man seemed to be aware of Bai Jingjing's arrival, and walked quickly towards an alley through the crowd, Bai Jingjing hurriedly followed.

Fang Rui stood there and thought about it for a few seconds, and followed, but unfortunately the two of them had already turned a corner and walked into an alley one step ahead of him, and by the time Fang Rui followed, the two of them had already disappeared. Frustrated, Fang Rui searched around for a while and still couldn't find them, so he had to return to the place where the fire broke out, the fire truck and ambulance had already arrived at the door, and on a stretcher carried out of a small western-style building lay a charred man, he was carried into the ambulance and roared away.

Standing in the crowd for a while, Fang Rui couldn't wait for Bai Jingjing to come back, so he had to return to the school first, and just after arriving at the dormitory room, he received a call from Bai Jingjing.

"Fang Rui, I have something to do and won't come back for a few days, you make up a reason to help me take a few days off. You stay in school obediently and don't be reckless. Bai Jingjing hung up the phone directly after explaining, and didn't even have a chance to ask Fang Rui to ask.

Looking at the phone a little helplessly, Fang Rui scratched his head, he had to ask for leave after only a few days of work, but it was too embarrassing for him, besides, what did Bai Jingjing do was more important than finding the missing page of the life book? Although there were a lot of doubts, Fang Rui still chose to go to bed first, anyway, when the sky fell, he would be covered in front of him, Fang Rui, who had not slept without lungs, seemed to have forgotten all about the man in the pink shirt, but he didn't know that the puddle of water on the ground at his door was put into a water snake and hovered at the door for a long time, and finally it still didn't flow into Fang Rui's room.

Early the next morning, the news that the school's principal, Xu Kai, and his 108-year-old grandmother had both died in the fire, had spread throughout the campus. Xu Kai is really respected, and the news of his death made everyone very sad, and even the vice principal announced that he would suspend classes for three days, and all the teachers and students of the school went to attend Xu Kai's funeral.

Fang Rui learned a trick from Bai Jingjing, that is, to chat with aunts and uncles to get information, and in the mouth of an old worker aunt who has been working in the school for more than 30 years, Fang Rui set out a lot of information about Xu Kai and his grandmother. Xu Kai's grandmother, Zhong Aimei is a legend in this small county, she lost her father and husband in her early years, she only has a posthumous son, Xu Weiguo. Xu Weiguo later married and had two sons, Xu Kai and Xu Xuan. It's a pity that the youngest son Xu Xuan died in childhood, Xu Weiguo and his wife both died in a car accident, leaving Xu Kai, who was only 7 years old. Since then, Zhong Aimei has raised Xu Kai as her second son, and she has worked hard to bring Xu Kai up. Xu Kai became a primary school teacher in the county, and Gao Ling, who was also a teacher, married and gave birth to a daughter, Xu Hailan, I thought that the family would live such a plain but happy life, but I didn't expect bad luck to befall the family again, Xu Hailan died of a serious illness before she was 15 years old, and her mother Gao Ling was grief-stricken, and in the second year after washing her face with tears every day, she swallowed a whole bottle of sleeping pills in extreme grief and committed suicide. A good family is like this, only the old Zhong Aimei and Xu Kai are left. Xu Kai, as a teacher in the school, although he lost two close relatives in life, but he was conscientious and very loving and caring for his students at work, and became the principal of the school when he was thirty-five years old, but he never married.

It's a pity that such a good teacher, Fang Rui is very emotional, how can such a good person be so unlucky? The loss of his parents in his early years, and the loss of his only beloved daughter and beloved wife at a young age, may only make Xu Kai forget his pain if he puts all his thoughts on the school and students. But in the end, Xu Kai couldn't end up hearing about extensive burns all over his body and died. Could all this be Xu Kai's life book, which has been written a long time ago? No matter how good you are, it doesn't help, do you have to follow the arrangement in the book of life? As soon as he thought of this, Fang Rui was a little frightened, he didn't know why Xu Kai's life book was written like this? Will his own life book be like Xu Kai's, even if he tries hard to do well in this life, he still can't escape such a miserable life? Fang Rui also suddenly realized, why would anyone want to tear off a page of the book of life or activate the page, if they know the content of the book of life, who wouldn't want to change it? Fang Rui, who was thinking hard, was a little distracted, and the teaching director who walked to his side, Teacher Li, called him several times before calling him back to his senses.

"Oh, it's Mr. Li, what's the matter?" Fang Rui hurriedly asked.

"Teacher Xiaobai, are you free today? That's the case, I want to take advantage of the school closure today to go to Wang Xiaozhan and Lu Ming's house to give them a sum of money raised by the school. Principal Xu asked me to do this when I was alive, but unfortunately I was very busy with the illness and hospitalization of teachers in the school a while ago. I happen to be free today, and I think it can be regarded as fulfilling a wish of the deceased Principal Xu. There are a lot of condolences to bring.,I can't take it alone.,Other teachers aren't available.,So.。。。 Teacher Li explained.

"No problem, I'll go when I'm free!" Fang Rui immediately agreed, although he and Principal Xu Kai never had the chance to meet again, but Fang Rui was still very willing to fulfill the old man's wish, and besides, he was going to the home of the two children who had the accident, maybe there would be some unexpected discoveries?
