Chapter 24: The Past

Despite all the things that happened before and during the meal, the last few people finished their breakfast peacefully. There were no deaths, not even bloodshed.

Yue Yao was still sleeping peacefully on the table, and she had no intuition about breakfast.

Ye Baiyu carried his wooden sword and jumped up and down in the courtyard to carry out his "morning exercise", the movement was cheerful like a monkey jumping in the woods.

Su Yang pulled Zhan Feng and squatted at the door, watching Ye Baiyu dance the god-like "swordsmanship".

The two also clapped their hands from time to time and applauded loudly.

Xia Beifeng was washing dishes in the kitchen alone, listening to the noisy voices of the three people behind him, and his face was full of lovelessness.

It's like being forced to watch the great immortal at the entrance of the village!

The scary thing is that there are still people cheering!

What's even more terrifying is that the great immortal is still his master!

Xia Beifeng looked at the window in front of him gloomily, sighed, wiped the bowl in his hand, and put it on the windowsill.

Then he lowered his head and began to fish a plate out of the water.

There was a crisp "jingling" sound from the bowl placed on the windowsill, as if someone had thrown something into the bowl.

Xia Beifeng raised his head and saw that the sparrow was standing outside the window with a smile, supporting his chin with one hand, tilting his head to look at him.

A copper coin in the bowl was swirling at the bottom of the bowl.

"You'll be rewarded."

The sparrow winked at Xia Beifeng, and raised his hand to throw a copper coin into the bowl.

The two copper coins collided together, and then separated, and turned more happily at the bottom of the bowl.

"I just washed the ......," Xia Bei said angrily, looking at the sparrow pleadingly.

The sparrow then grinned and threw another copper coin.

"You dug up the ground before......" Xia Beifeng looked at the three copper coins that were turning around in the bowl and colliding with each other, and sighed again.

"Let's rewash it then." The sparrow smiled and threw the remaining copper coins in his hand into the bowl, and looked at him with his chin in his hands, "I'm here to watch you wash." ”

A bunch of copper coins "jingled" with each other, and collided with the bottom of the bowl. It sounded for a long time before it quieted down.

"No need to ......" Xia Beifeng said half a sentence, looked up and saw the sparrow's shining eyes, his throat moved slightly, he looked away with some embarrassment, lowered his head and continued to wash the dishes.

"Hey, hey......" Sparrow watched Xia Beifeng wash the dishes slowly, and didn't know what to think. Laughing intermittently.

Xia Beifeng finished washing the dishes and didn't dare not look up at her. He just reached out and fished out a few copper coins from the bottom of the bowl, put them in his pocket, and began to wash the bowl again.

"Ah......" The sparrow looked at it for a while, Xia Beifeng kept his head down and concentrated on washing the dishes. She had no choice but to tilt her head to look closer at Xia Beifeng's expression, and she looked bored.

"What's wrong?" Xia Beifeng looked up at her and smiled softly, "Bored?" ”

"Hmm......" Sparrow nodded and laughed again, "Xiaobei Xiaobei, let's go out to play when you're done." ”

"What are you going to play?" Xia Beifeng said as he stacked the bowls in his hand one by one. Turning around and opening the cupboard, "Okay, I'm not necessarily free." ”

"I don't know, but I'm so bored!" Seeing Xia Beifeng turn around, the sparrow puffed out his face depressedly, and looked up at the sky, "Ah Yu said, let me not run around...... Obviously he himself ...... Hum! ”

"Master, what is he doing again?" Xia Beifeng looked back at the sparrow suspiciously, "Why do I still think that his old man is honest and surprising in the past two days?" ”

"Because I didn't be honest at the beginning, I suffered a loss!" Sparrow replied casually, watched Xia Beifeng close the door of the cupboard, and immediately said, "Xiaobei-let's go out to play." ”

Her "Little North" dragged the usual end note, and her voice carried the unique coquettishness of a teenage girl. Even coquettishness has a unique charm.

Xia Beifeng was about to ask Ye Baiyu what he had done, when he heard the man's voice behind him.

"No, I can't. Xiaobei is going to help me work today. ”

"Hey!" The sparrow shook his fist angrily and shouted, "Ah Yu, how can you be like this! ”

Xia Beifeng also looked back at Ye Baiyu in surprise.

How I didn't know I was going to work for you today!

Do you have something to say in advance?

"The stuff is in the cellar, you go and see for yourself." Ye Baiyu said a word to Xia Beifeng, then beckoned to the sparrow, and asked with a smile: "Are you saying bad things about me behind my back again?" ”

The sparrow blinked, looked at the indifferent Xia Beifeng again, and the bright eyes turned around twice, and jumped. It turned into a bird and flew away.

"I shouldn't have let her out, I knew that I was fooling around and not doing anything serious!" Ye Baiyu said hatefully, and turned his head to look at Xia Beifeng, "You asked me about that before, I went to ask about it." ”

What's up? Who to ask?

You didn't go anywhere after breakfast, okay?

I've been having epilepsy in the yard, who have you communicated with?

Xia Beifeng looked at Ye Baiyu in surprise.

"There's so much more you don't know." It seems that he heard Xia Beifeng's heart. Ye Baiyu patted him on the shoulder triumphantly, and said earnestly: "You have your way, I have my way, but what we want to know will always be known in the end, right?" ”

Xia Beifeng nodded, leaned against the cupboard beside him, and raised his arms to look at Ye Baiyu: "So, what result did you ask?" ”

"Hmm...... The ...... The groom's official ...... It is a local thousand-year-old demon. Ye Baiyu cleared his throat and said slowly: "The He family took over a business before, and it was introduced by a Taoist priest who didn't know where he came from, and it was for this daughter-in-law. Later, I didn't know what happened, and the 28 beauties who said that they cut corners and replaced them with an old lady in her eighties. Of course this master is unwilling. ”

"The He family is also stupid, thinking that the business that doesn't even have a grave can be fooled around. Actually, it's the most troublesome...... As a result, the family was ruined, and there was no business to do in the future. This master squatted on the beam of his house every day to make trouble, smashed things during the day and tossed like a dream at night, and paralyzed the old lady directly. In the end, they could only beg their grandfather to tell their grandmother to find a way. ”

Later, it was the Taoist priest who helped to pull the strings, and the He family agreed with the evil ghost to find him a better daughter-in-law. The evil ghost directly gave the eight characters of the birth date and specified what kind of person he wanted. Prevent them from fooling around again. I thought it would be very difficult to find, but I didn't expect He Ming to find someone at school, and he sent people home after the disaster, I just don't know how to write dead words...... Gee. ”

"So...... What is it that does it? Xia Beifeng frowned and thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "But it should be the zombie girl who did it last night." Why, is she familiar with that demon? That's not right. Since she knew her, why did she take Yue Yao away......"

"They don't know each other. In fact, there should be a grudge now. Ye Baiyu smiled meaningfully, "That evil ghost still feels wronged, and the daughter-in-law who got it flies." The zombie girl also felt aggrieved, Yue Yao should obviously be her thing, and it was the opportunity for her to take that last step...... It's just a pity that she's soft-hearted! When he saw Yue Yao's face, he couldn't do it. ”

"What do you mean?" Xia Beifeng was a little surprised when he heard this, but after thinking about it carefully, he seemed to understand Ye Baiyu's meaning somewhat, "You mean, Yue Yao, she is actually ......?"

"The zombie girl turned around." Ye Baiyu smiled and glanced towards the bedroom.

Yue Yao was lying on the table asleep, as if sensing that someone was watching her, she moved slightly, burying her face in her arms. I continued to sleep peacefully.

"You see, there are some things that you can't even imagine without seeing them with your own eyes." Ye Baiyu retracted his gaze and said to the thoughtful Xia Beifeng: "We only know how many tribulations some things have to go through if they want to take that last step, but we don't know that even their chances are like this...... That zombie girl already owes Yue Yao a life, and she didn't know how to pay it back, but now she has to kill her with one life, ah two lives. As a result, she is actually in a dilemma. ”

"So even if we don't bring Yue Yao back. She won't die either? Xia Beifeng instinctively asked a rhetorical question, but before Ye Baiyu could answer, he denied this inference, "No." That person was actually hesitating, too. After all, she didn't have much time for herself, if she gave up her own cultivation for so many years for the sake of a Yue Yao, and finally destroyed herself, she shouldn't be willing to do it. ”

"Yes! You're reacting much faster than I expected. Ye Baiyu looked at Xia Beifeng with relief, with a little smile in his eyes, and nodded, "That girl will have to make a decision sooner or later." It's just that the later she drags on, the more shaken she becomes. If she is really shaken, even if she can really do it in the end, she will be difficult to survive. ”

"And she's probably thinking of giving up now." Xia Beifeng also glanced at Yue Yao, and shook his head regretfully, "That zombie girl dug He Ming's heart out just for Yue Yao." What is this? Let him see with his own eyes that the man doesn't have her in his heart? ”

"Maybe." Ye Baiyu nodded thoughtfully, and said earnestly: "So Xiaobei, you have to be careful, maybe there is this kind of deep backstage among the girls you have dumped before, and when the time comes, come to dig your heart in the middle of the night and take it back to drink." ”

"I broke up peacefully, and we don't owe each other...... Can you hope that I will order it? Xia Beifeng said and kicked Ye Baiyu as if jokingly.

Ye Baiyu immediately squatted on the ground with his legs in his arms and wailed.

"I've got a broken leg! You're so ruthless! Treat your master like this! ”

I didn't even touch you, okay!

And I'm kicking my right leg, what are you holding your left leg for!

Did you finally realize that you were old enough to start touching porcelain, right?

Xia Beifeng helplessly watched Ye Baiyu squatting on the ground humming and chirping, and he didn't want to pay attention to him.

Who knew that this person was getting more and more addicted, and finally simply sat on the ground and shouted that he was going to die.

"Hey...... Stop it. Xia Beifeng squatted down and looked at Ye Baiyu, and said almost pleadingly: "Let's be serious." If you say so, we'll leave that zombie girl alone today, okay? ”

"Well, almost." Ye Baiyu raised his head, looked at Xia Beifeng in front of him, and nodded, "Let's ignore her today, her affairs still depend on what path she chooses in the end, and it may not be necessary for us to make a move when the time comes...... We're going to get the other guy in trouble today. ”

"Who else?" Xia Beifeng asked in surprise, "Which one of you doesn't have long eyes has offended you again?" ”

"The guy who hid in the hole last night and didn't come out to see me." Ye Baiyu shrugged his shoulders and sneered contemptuously, "I originally made an appointment to come to see me, but I didn't dare to come." I thought that since people didn't want to come, I would go and look for it, but when I went to the door of its house and knocked on the door, he ignored me, as if he was dead...... That's why I'm going to look for it today, and I'm going to see it anyway. ”

"Master. You look at the opening point. Xia Beifeng said leisurely: "You can't force your feelings, since people don't want to see you, then you can let it go...... Otherwise, in the end, everyone will not even be able to make friends. ”

"Do you think I'm you?" Ye Baiyu looked at Xia Beifeng with disdain and said to him: "I have always been persistent, either follow me well, or I don't want to see each other, or you live or die...... Broke up and became friends. It's something that only a scumbag like you who still has a dirty little abacus in his heart that doesn't know what dirty can do! ”

Xia Beifeng watched Ye Baiyu climb down the pole in silence, and didn't want to say anything. "People like you are simply the public enemy of mankind, and you have everything you need from your predecessor, and you have not considered the current mood of your predecessor, as well as your own current mood!"

Ye Baiyu finished this tongue twister-like paragraph in one breath without even pausing. After speaking, he clutched his chest and made a sad expression.

"I'm really ashamed to teach such a ......"

Xia Beifeng stood up expressionlessly, turned around and left.

"Oops...... Little North. You waited. Ye Baiyu saw that Xia Beifeng ignored him, and immediately "remembered the serious matter" again.

He stood up, reached out and pressed Xia Beifeng's shoulder, and said to him with a smile: "The teacher has said that there is something for you to do, how can you just leave!" ”

Ye Baiyu's action seemed to be a void of putting his hand on Xia Beifeng's shoulder, and he didn't seem to have any strength at all.

Xia Beifeng didn't feel this way at all, and his shoulders seemed to be pressed against a mountain, so that he could barely straighten his waist.

He tried to remove the hand from his shoulder. Ye Baiyu's hands seemed to have roots. Tightly clasped on Xia Beifeng's shoulder, no matter what, he couldn't break free.

"Okay. What the hell is going on. Xia Beifeng turned his head helplessly and said to Ye Baiyu: "Please Master, don't be polite to your old man, you must say where you can use me...... I will do my best to do things well for you, and I will do my best to die, and if I can't do it well, I will come to see you! ”

Ye Baiyu smiled with relief and withdrew his hand. With his hands behind his back, he said to Xia Beifeng in an unfathomable manner: "You can go to the cellar and take a look." ”

"What the hell, mysterious." Xia Beifeng climbed down the cellar with a flashlight and shone on the surrounding walls.

The cellar wasn't huge, and there were vegetables and stuff in the corner. It occupies a small part of the area, and in fact only leaves an open space that can barely accommodate a person to turn around.

The vegetables in the cellar exude a vegetal fragrance, but the air is not so stuffy.

Xia Beifeng took a deep breath, and faintly smelled some special smells mixed in the smell of plants.

The smell was familiar to him, and if he guessed correctly, there should be ......

Xia Beifeng was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard a "bang" above his head.

Xia Beifeng looked up and saw that the door of the cellar had been closed by Ye Baiyu, leaving only a twenty-centimeter square ventilation opening.

Ye Baiyu's face emerged from above the vent.

"I'm worried that you're not concentrating on your work, so I'll help you focus." Ye Baiyu said with a smile: "It just so happens that the sparrow is still tossing and going out to play, so I asked her to accompany you to get this thing." ”

"I don't do it." Xia Beifeng replied categorically.

Ye Baiyu ignored him, and just said to himself: "Just call me when you're done, and I'll let you out when the time comes...... Ah yes, what I'm going to get is in your phone, you can watch it yourself. Have a number in mind, just don't overdo it. ”

After Ye Baiyu said this, he patted his shirt, stood up, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Only Xia Beifeng was left standing in the middle of a pile of vegetables with a confused face, looking up at the small piece of sky.

It's fucking cloudy!

Xia Beifeng covered his face in pain.

A small white bird flew in through the narrow cellar vent, slowly descended, and landed on Xia Beifeng's shoulder, before tilting his head and combing his feathers.
