Chapter 10: Supper
Shen Qingge's girl, her appearance and age look no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, and her actual age is unknown. When he first appeared in front of the Shen family, it was probably during the Republic of China...... Or a little earlier, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was no record in the genealogy of the specific process, only in the story of the Shen family's adults coaxing children.
This girl was discovered by a young man who went to the ancestral hall of his hometown to rummage through the cabinets.
Regarding the ancestral hall of the Shen family, it is also a very magical place, and people often find some strange things or characters in it (such as Shen Qingge, such as sparrows...... )。
She was found asleep in a dark room beneath a tile in the ancestral hall.
It didn't seem right to say that she was asleep, because she wasn't breathing, just huddled in the corner of the dark room, leaning against the corner of the wall and not moving.
There are still a lot of bits and pieces of bones around me, and I can't tell what kind of species it is, but the visual effect is quite shocking.
The bones were not known for many years, and they were covered with layers of cobwebs, shattered at the slightest touch, turning into a pile of gray-white bone meal, which raised a room of dust when it fell to the ground.
As for Miss Shen Qingge herself, it was even more exaggerated than the pile of bones, she had been wrapped in a huge cocoon by cobwebs, and she could barely make out the outline of a human figure from a distance.
When the young man struggled to remove the gray cobwebs and saw the girl holding a silver spear with her eyes closed, he didn't realize what he had found.
Or maybe even though he realized that this was no ordinary little girl, he didn't care much about what this girl was.
It may be that young people are bold, or it may be that simple young people are brainless. In short, despite the fact that the girl was wrapped in iron chains and the chains were covered with a dense number of runes with red letters on a yellow background, the young man was still not very afraid, but studied with great interest how to wake up the girl.
The chains that had been ravaged for many years were not strong, and after the young man burned most of the rune paper in a fire, the fragile chains shattered into several pieces and fell to the ground with a "clang".
So the aunt and grandmother, who claimed to be the ancestor of the Shen family, stretched her waist and yawned lazily to wake up.
On the day she opened her eyes, a fire broke out in the ancestral hall of the Shen family, which was not too big.
The fire didn't burn anything, but it was so evil that the water couldn't extinguish it, and the soil couldn't cover it. I didn't know where it started, and I didn't know when it would disappear, so I burned it for a long time, and then I couldn't think about it and extinguished it.
Just when the family gathered around the door of the ancestral hall to study the inexplicable fire, Miss Shen Qingge followed the young man who released her and climbed out from under the floor tiles, rubbing her eyes in a daze and shouting that she was hungry and wanted to eat meat.
This was followed by a drought for most of the year. For a whole summer, let alone rain, not even clouds could gather in the sky.
And Miss Shen Qingge lived in the Shen family with a swagger. Although she can kill a cow in one meal, she gets along well with the rest of the Shen family.
The young man who released her a few months later realized that he seemed to have been in a big trouble, and began to ask seriously about the girl's origins.
After this question, I learned that this girl turned out to be a zombie who had been dead for an unknown number of years, and before she was imprisoned in the dark room under the Shen family, she had already been cultivated into a drought.
As for what she did when she was alive, what she died for, and how she was sealed in a dark room...... She didn't want to reveal any of these things.
The young man who released her saw that since he had caused this catastrophe, he almost made the villagers in his hometown lose their harvest and starved to death on the side of the road. couldn't just leave this girl alone, so he left his hometown with Shen Qingge and wandered around.
In the following decades and hundreds of years, their lives were also peaceful, as long as they did not live in one place for too long, they would not cause trouble to others, but it was very simple.
***********************************
Under the starlight, Shen Qingge carried the spear on his shoulder, jumped up and down behind Xia Beifeng, and asked him every once in a while: "Xiaobei, what are we going to eat?" When will it arrive? ”
Xia Beifeng just lowered his head and played with his mobile phone, turning a blind eye to Shen Qingge, who kept asking questions behind him, and let her babble there alone......
When Xia Beifeng was standing at an intersection waiting for the red light to pass, he inadvertently glanced back at Shen Qingge who was following behind him, and suddenly felt a little cold.
You should have put on extra clothes when you go out this morning.
The clothes on the girl behind her can be regarded as very cool even in summer. A camisole top, a pair of denim shorts that exposed the thighs, and a pair of flip-flops studded with shiny beads.
"Ancestor, I would like to ask you." He watched the signal light on the opposite road jump from red to green, beckoned to Shen Qingge, and motioned for her to follow: "May I ask if you just came back from a trip to Sanya?" Wear only a little bit like this? ”
"Huh?" Shen Qingge glanced up at him suspiciously, and followed his footsteps: "No, I don't like Sanya, it's too hot." ”
Xia Beifeng glanced at her snow-white straight legs again, and sighed very badly.
Although he knew that Shen Qingge's species would not feel cold, he still couldn't accept this kind of person who was still jumping on the street like this in the weather when people who were afraid of the cold had begun to wear two clothes.
It's so traverse, don't you think there's anything wrong with the way others look at you?
Xia Beifeng kept complaining to the girl behind him in his heart, while searching for food on the side of the road.
"Do you eat KFC?" Xia Beifeng pointed to the signboard flashing yellow in front of him, and asked Shen Qingge: "There are not many things to eat at this time, there is nothing good, you can just take it, okay?" ”
"Eat!" Shen Qingge replied very dryly: "I want two family buckets!" ”
After saying this, she carried the silver gun and took the lead in running towards KFC in front.
I thought it was so late, and there should be no one in the general store. But what Xia Beifeng didn't expect was that when he walked into the store, he found that there were many people, and there were actually a lot of people.
Young couples, young students in school uniforms, and parents with children are noisy and crowded into this small shop, which is very lively.
What's even more terrifying is that the people in this store don't seem to care about Shen Qingge's way of wearing, as well as the spear in her hand, as if they don't see it at all, (maybe they really can't see it" Still hanging on his face with the danger of showing eight teeth, he gently asked Xia Beifeng what he was doing.
Over there, Shen Qingge had already ordered two family buckets, waiting for Xia Beifeng to pay for it.
"You really want two!" Xia Beifeng took out his wallet, looked at Shen Qingge who was standing beside him, and reluctantly took out two hundred yuan and handed it to the salesman behind the counter.
"Two may not be enough for me." Shen Qingge loosened his shoulders, pointed to the colorful leaflets on the counter, and said loudly, "I still want to eat cones." ”
"Trouble with another cone." Xia Beifeng smiled at the young salesman who was making change and said, "Is there any vacant seat?" ”
"Your change, cone, please wait in line next to you." The waiter smiled and handed the change to Xia Beifeng with both hands, and raised his hand to point to the stairs in the corner: "If Mr. is not troublesome, please go upstairs, there are still many empty seats upstairs." ”
"Okay, thanks." Xia Beifeng nodded at the salesman, reached out and pushed Shen Qingge's back: "I'll get the cone myself later, I'll wait for you upstairs." ”
With that, he carried two buckets of the family and walked towards the stairs that led to the second floor.
He turned his head at the corner of the stairs and looked at Shen Qingge, who was waiting in line to get a cone, just like an ordinary teenage girl, his eyes were full of innocent anticipation.
Xia Beifeng was standing in the middle of a group of children whose oldest was no more than junior high school, stretching his neck to look at the ice cream machine at the end of the line, looking salivating.
So when Shen Qingge jumped upstairs with a cone and sat opposite Xia Beifeng, he still couldn't hold back the desire to complain, and asked Shen Qingge: "Auntie, you are thousands of years old, can you not be like this...... Immature. ”
"No, I'm a beautiful girl who is forever sixteen."
Shen Qingge ate the cone in his hand in a few bites as he spoke, opened the family bucket on the table with great interest, and picked up a hamburger.
"Oh, by the way, you should eat only meat until I do, so the bread is going to be eaten for you."
She quickly opened the burger in her hand and ate the middle filling in a few bites. Then he pushed the rest of the hamburger in front of Xia Beifeng along with the wrapper, gave him a "I believe you" look, and lowered his head to continue searching for other food in the family bucket.
Xia Beifeng glanced down at the two poor pieces of bread in front of him, and a cyan vein jumped on his forehead.
A crumpled green leaf sticking to the bread, with something white on it, looked like it was broken, and it made people lose their appetite at all.
But the girl on the other side was still biting the chicken leg and reminded him very "kindly": "Don't waste food." ”
"What the hell are you here for?" Xia Beifeng raised his head and asked impatiently.
"Just like you!"
Shen Qingge gnawed off a chicken leg, threw it aside, and turned out a pair of chicken wings: "Find your master who has been missing for many days." ”
As she spoke, Xia Beifeng kept staring at her face, trying to find out her true thoughts from her expression.
It's a pity that there isn't, nothing.
Shen Qingge's face. There is no second emotion other than "eating happily".
Even when talking about the person "Ye Baiyu, who has been missing for a long time", he is understated, and he doesn't seem to take this seriously at all.
"How do you know he's missing?" Xia Beifeng stared at her for a while, and it wasn't until she finished nibbling on a pair of chicken wings that she asked her very suspiciously: "Except for me and Xiaotian, no one knows about this matter, what is your source?" ”
"It's okay to tell you...... But do you have to know? Shen Qingge picked up the Coke cup on the side, opened the lid and poured half a cup of Coke directly.
Xia Beifeng sat opposite her, watching her eat and drink, and couldn't help but pick up the poor piece of bread in front of him, and took a bite: "I don't have to know, but I'm still a little curious." To you like this...... Well, what do people like you usually rely on? ”
"By brain waves." Shen Qingge put down the Coke cup and said seriously.
Xia Beifeng choked for a moment, too lazy to pay attention to her nonsense, as if he hadn't heard her, and repeated his question: "What do you usually rely on?" ”
Shen Qingge snorted boringly, took out a bag of chicken nuggets from the family bucket, and said while eating: "Your master and I used to rely on sparrows to send letters back and forth, but in the past few years, I have found that it is more convenient to call QQ or something, and it also saves sparrows from running around." But this time ......"
She ate all the colonel's chicken nuggets in her hand halfway through her words, looked at Xia Beifeng triumphantly, and stretched out an oily hand to him.
"And the chicken cutlets, I bought two different barrels, okay." Xia Beifeng said as he took out a whole piece of chicken steak from another family bucket and put it in front of Shen Qingge: "What's wrong this time?" ”
"This time, it wasn't your master who took the initiative to contact me." Shen Qingge excitedly took the chicken steak and said quickly, "It's your sister...... Don't ask me who your teacher is, where is your teacher, I can't tell you such a stupid question. In short, you remember that your sister is a very powerful and beautiful temperament. She caught an unlucky ghost the other day, I mean she caught a ghost who happened to be particularly unlucky, not a metaphor. Your master asked him to send me a letter, saying that he was trapped in a certain place with your master and couldn't get out, and wanted me to help see if he could find where the two of them were now, so I came. ”
"So what?" Xia Beifeng ate two pieces of bread with difficulty, and poured half a cup of Coke, before he felt more comfortable, he cleared his throat and asked Shen Qingge, "Have you found it?" ”
"If I find it, will I need to stop you? Why don't you just drag them home? Shen Qingge looked at him with an expression of "why are you so stupid", tore the chicken steak in his hand, and said through gritted teeth: "I can't even feel a little breath, so I can only come and see it in person." ”
"He shouldn't die." Xia Beifeng seemed to be relieved, but he seemed to be more worried: "I don't know where I went, can I still find it?" If you're still alive, you're probably about to confess. ”
"No, after all, your master is also here, he shouldn't die so quickly!"
"So what the hell is my sister?" Xia Beifeng asked curiously: "Anyway, it's not human, right, are you very familiar with her?" How did Ye Baiyu pick up such a treasure? ”
"This one!" Shen Qingge raised a hand, bowed to Xia Beifeng, and said incomprehensibly: "This matter, don't say it." (To be continued.) )
