Chapter 38 Shopping

Bao Datong scratched his head, "I don't remember when I offended this little ghost." I have been living in seclusion, and I have never intervened in other supernatural events except for cooperating with you since I joined the WTO, how can I know them? ”

"Or was it your past life?" Wanli said.

"Boss, I'll ask you to think about it, okay?" Bao Datong stood up in annoyance, "That old Taoist doesn't even have a soul, what can he reincarnate?" But he is really the scum of my Dao realm, let's die if he dies, and he also buries boys and girls with him, delusionally thinking that he will cultivate with his soul body, and then be reborn. I'm afraid he didn't want boys and girls to accompany him, maybe he wanted to suck the pure qi from them! Alas, I don't understand why we ignore the lives of others when immortality is so important! ”

"Was the soul of the old man really eaten?" Xiao Xia was puzzled, "Didn't you say they were all sealed in the tank?" How to eat? ”

"You don't understand this, if the soul of the old Taoist priest is not eaten, those two children who don't know how to cultivate will not grow into demon children with profound mana, everything is naturally passed down using this 'innate' method." Bao Datong explained, "Although to the outside world, the three cylinders are sealed, but there will be a way to communicate between them. How so? It's like a unit, the outside may be locked and you can't get in and out, but you can still walk around a few rooms inside. ”

"But their attitude towards you is not casual, as if they want to kill you quickly! Why is that? There's always a cause, right? Wan Liqi said.

"This question can be put aside for now." Ruan Zhan took over, "As long as you know that they are targeting you, be careful in the future." ”

His words, everyone agreed, and they all knew in their hearts that since they understood the background of the two demon boys, they should take the initiative to attack, and the opponent would not sit still, so a frontal conflict was inevitable, so the top priority now was to restore everyone's physical strength and energy, especially Ruan Zhan, who had been running around and consuming.

But Xiao Xia can't rest, she still has to go to work, although Wan Li suggested that she ask for leave, but she knows that she can no longer treat her own employees like this, otherwise even if Director Pan is biased, she will face the risk of being fired.

While there was still some time before work, she slept for two hours in a daze. Fortunately, it was summer, and she wore simple clothes and no makeup, so when she arrived at the office in a speeding car for thousands of miles, she was only fifteen minutes late, which is nothing for her recent slack record.

In fact, during those two hours, she didn't sleep well and kept having strange dreams. She couldn't remember exactly what she dreamed of, but she remembered that there were two factions of people calling back and forth. In the dream, she was very scared, and when she woke up, she forgot everything, which made her feel a little uneasy, and she didn't know if it was the psychological hint that Ruan Zhan gave her when she talked about the origin of the two demon boys, or if something was going to happen.

The tension of the day and the lack of sleep for a few days made her extremely tired, and she almost fell asleep against the wall during the time she waited to copy the documents, and she was in a mess all day, and finally coped with the day's work, and staggered to the fourteenth floor, trying to find Wanli to go home with her, but was told that Dr. Wan had a patient who was committing suicide, and he had already rushed there.

In the summer, the twilight sun was still scorching, and the ground was steaming hot after a day of exposure, Xiao Xia stood at the bus stop carelessly, only feeling dizzy, and the voices and cars around her were just a 'buzzing' noise to her. At this time, she suddenly remembered a sentence - waiting for a car is like waiting for someone, many cars, many people, but there is never a car you have to wait for and people you have to wait!

What about the person she was waiting for? It's so close to her, but it always makes her pass by, as if she can never touch it!

There are many men around her, Wanli of the perfect husband-type; can be a lover of the human-type Bao Datong; the fashion pioneer of the advertising agency in the building; She can even have a crush on the mature uncle-type Director Pan, but why doesn't she love it, but she falls in love with that unpredictable man? Sometimes, she felt that he loved her so much and cared for her like a treasure, but at other times, he was suddenly cold and detached, so that she couldn't tell if it was real or just a hallucination caused by her nymphomaniac.

The bus during the rush hour is very fatal, and she finally waited for the bus she was going to take, but found that it was already crowded. She didn't have the courage to get on the train, so she decided to take the subway, although it would be a little farther, but she thought that the train would be in better condition. I think it's better to come to her own home, it's closer to the office, she always walks and gets off work, so she doesn't have to suffer this sin. However, if you go home to live, you can't blatantly stay by his side!

She thought about it as she walked towards the subway station, and when she was about to reach the station entrance, she suddenly saw a giant billboard in a large shopping mall advertising a designer underwear. She has a good figure, so she is more concerned about underwear, and she is very willing to invest, and seeing beautiful models and fantastic underwear at this moment makes her suddenly have an urge to buy, an irresistible impulse!

Her steps hesitated, and her reason finally did not overcome her desire, and she walked towards the mall.

This store is relatively famous, but the interior has been renovated a few days ago, so Xiao Xia is not familiar with the adjusted counter location. I don't know what's going on, as soon as she enters the door, she goes directly to the third floor through the escalator, and comes to the underwear department with a familiar car, as if the decoration has passed. But before she could realize it, she was already attracted to the beautiful lingerie.

She picked a set and found that there was no clerk to serve, so she planned to try it in the dressing room on a whim. She didn't realize the abnormality of her behavior, and when she usually bought underwear, she only bought it according to the corresponding model, and never tried it in the mall. At the moment, she didn't know why, as if there was a voice in her heart directing her, but she didn't feel it herself.

She didn't notice that next to the underwear department was the children's clothing department.

Looking at the mirror in the dressing room several times, she was very satisfied with the effect of her underwear. But just as she was about to change back into her clothes, she found that the small door of the dressing room opened a crack. This frightened her, and she thought she was a pervert, worried that she was gone, and screamed.

But she didn't make a sound!

On the wooden wall of the locker room, a child's hand stretched out at some point and held her mouth down. Then, the wooden door opened, and Zhang Jialin stood at the door!

She is still the same as before, with long hair, retro dress, blue and white face, and a pair of big eyes staring at Xiao Xia without the slightest popularity, and the cold breath is blowing in her face!

Xiao Xia was so frightened that she forgot about her struggle, so she looked at Zhang Jialin like that. And after Zhang Jialin stood for a while, she suddenly pounced and grabbed Xiao Xia hard! Xiao Xia never knew that anything could be so fast, she didn't even blink her eyes, she only felt a flash in front of her eyes, a pain came from her left chest, and she heard a scream in her ear.

It wasn't her cry, it was Zhang Jialin's. Because she was too close to Xiao Xia's amulet, she was obviously burned by the yellow light emitted by the amulet, but despite this, she still scratched a bloody five-finger mark in the middle of Xiao Xia's collarbone and chest.

At this moment, Xiao Xia suddenly felt that this little girl hated her!

But why hate her? Why do they hate Bao Datong again? She and Bao Datong have never provoked them!

But she didn't have time to think about it, because the moment the amulet shone brightly, the hand that was sticking out of the wall also retracted, and Xiao Xia hurriedly took advantage of this blink of an eye to rush out of the locker room!

Whether it's gone or not, she can't care anymore! Fortunately, her skirt is a two-piece suit, and she still grabs her blouse with her other hand to block the spring light on her chest, she is betting that Zhang Jialin is not an entity, betting that she is afraid of her own talisman, and betting that she made a big move to attract the attention of others, so she rushed out!

The pain from her knees and elbows proved that Zhang Jialin was indeed not an entity, but her collision did not knock Zhang Jialin away, but only passed by. Xiao Xia didn't look behind either, crawling down while shouting for help, running around the shelves. But she immediately found that it was useless how loud she screamed, and the people around her could not see her existence at all, as if she was transparent, but she clearly heard the noise of the outside world, why couldn't other people see her or hear her?

Out of nowhere, a wooden stick stretched out and tripped Natsu again. Before she could get up, two little legs appeared in front of her, and two feet in little red leather shoes lifted one and stepped viciously on her head.

She hurriedly retracted, and as soon as she turned around, Zhang Jialin appeared behind her again, and then changed directions, it was still the same, as if there were countless Zhang Jialin surrounding her. Only then did she understand that her talisman had little effect on this powerful demon boy, and could only protect her from being attacked on important parts of her body, but Rao was so, Zhang Jialin still scratched her skin!

Crunch――

A soft sound sounded in Xiao Xia's ears, close enough to be close to her. She looked around in horror and found that she was sitting in the middle of several unopened clothing boxes in the children's clothing department, and the sound came from behind the boxes, and Zhang Jialin was standing opposite her, staring at her ghostly!

"Auntie." There was a call from between the cracks in the box, and the voice was stiff, not like a human voice.

A head slowly poked out from behind the box, with a picturesque face, red lips and white teeth, but with a dull smile and shiny skin, it turned out to be a wooden model for children. He called out to Natsu as he walked out from behind the box, his posture extremely strange because he couldn't bend his knees.

Xiao Xia put on her clothes indiscriminately and wanted to hide behind the box, but suddenly felt her hands and wrists tightened, and she was instantly grabbed tightly by a cold and stiff thing, and when she looked down, it turned out to be two small wooden models again. They are a man and a woman, dressed in clothes displayed in the mall, with brands and price tags on them, pulling Xiao Xia from left to right, turning their necks mechanically, looking up at her, making a 'kaba kaba' sound, as if they were winding a clock!

"Let's go!" They said in unison.

"Where are you going?!" Xiao Xia struggled to get rid of the clamps of the two small logs, but she couldn't do it at all, so she was pulled towards a door that looked like an escape ladder, Zhang Jialin led the way backwards, and the white miserable light in her eyes kept staring at Xiao Xia.

"I'm not going, let me go!"

She remembers that the wooden models in the mall are very light, and sometimes she accidentally bumps into them, as if they will fall down, why are these two so heavy? Her hands were about to be torn off, but she still couldn't break free from the wooden hands that didn't separate her fingers!

As she got closer and closer to the door, she screamed hoarsely and kicked over several shelves in an attempt to get the attention of others, but to her despair she found that it was all in vain, and that although she was in a busy mall, she was as helpless as if she were on an island!

When she got to the door, she kicked the door frame and refused to leave, seeing Zhang Jialin looking at her with annoyance, she actually had some joy of victory.

Finally, she is no longer cold and unchanging, and finally, she can make this demon boy exert some effort, and she will not be subdued so easily!

"Be careful of us when you go to the mall!" As soon as her leg went numb, a hand touched her thigh again, and at the same time, words as cold as a snake sounded beside her. When I turned my head, it turned out to be a wooden male model showing off a suit. This made Xiao Xia's legs weak, and he could no longer support it, and was directly pushed into the door by a strong force.

Darkness, boundless darkness!

She didn't know where the back of the door led, but it was unusually dark, and the two little wooden men were still holding her hand, but the sides gave her a strong sense of oppression, and she felt like she had entered a long corridor with a wooden floor, and she couldn't help but go down.

She trusts her feelings, and because Wanli says she has claustrophobic tendencies, she is particularly sensitive to closed and narrow environments.

Bang-Bang-Bang-

The sound of wooden feet stepping on the wooden plank sounded on both sides of her body, and there were two small white lights in front of her that were cold and flickering, and they were Zhang Jialin's eyes. And what about her own footsteps?

Why can't I hear her footsteps? Is Zhang Jialin funny, or is her soul out of her body?

For a moment, she regretted it very much. She shouldn't have gone shopping, knowing that now was a critical moment, and those two demon boys who were so aggressive would not just defend and not attack, why were they still careless?

"If you don't go shopping, I'll find other ways to catch you." She suddenly squeezed into this sentence in her mind.

Xiao Xia was startled, only to realize that she was bewitched by the sudden desire to buy something inexplicably. Come to think of it, Wanli's patient didn't want to commit suicide for no reason, everything was to transfer Wanli away from her. After all, Wanli is an invulnerable physique, and it is not so easy to confuse him!

The delicate children's voice laughed grimly!

Xiao Xia understood that she could understand her own mind and knew that she must have guessed correctly, which is why she was so proud.

"If you have anything, come at me, don't use this despicable method to set a trap for Ruan Zhan!" She thought that she was being used as bait again to lure Ruan Zhan to take the bait, so she was angry and yelled at the two little white lights.

She just wanted to love him, wanted to give him warmth, wanted to pull him out of his dark inner world, never wanted to be his burden, or even his weakness, why did everyone take advantage of her like this? She'd rather die than drag him down! So she tried to calm her mind as much as possible, afraid that someone as sensitive as him would feel her danger! How many times, as long as she is in trouble, he can feel it, and he will come immediately, even in Sima Nan's dream killing technique, which makes her feel connected to him by flesh and blood, intimate, but it also makes her feel that it will bring him danger!

She's going to try to figure things out on her own! She must have a way!

"What is Ruan Zhan? I don't care about it at all! The voice entered Xiao Xia's mind again, "What I want is you!" ”

Is this little demon boy wanting her? Why?

"And Bao Datong!"

It turns out that the two of them are the target!
