Chapter 52: Tokens

When night fell, the Taiji Building was quiet again, the diners left, all the employees in the Taiji Building went home to rest, and the tenants returned to the room, and the bell hanging on the door was silent.

Shen Qingjiu lit the incense, poured the wine, and then, sat down behind the counter alone, she didn't take out the homework book today, and she was not in the mood to write her homework at this time, her mind was full of the theft of the Divine Bead and what the black horse said.

This dark horse of unknown origin, he is not familiar with the demon city, and he is not familiar with the current world, in some ways, he is the same as Shao Siyu and Bai Ruyu, as if he has traveled from ancient times, but he has no other purpose, it seems that he just walks around, looks at it casually, and now he stays in the Taiji Tower of the demon city, and it is just fate.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps on the stairs, and when he looked up, Yueqing had already walked down the stairs and came to Shen Qingjiu.

Shen Qingjiu opened his mouth and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Yueqing opened his mouth and said: "I need to go out for a while, it will probably take a little longer, but Xiaojiu can rest assured, I will come back before twelve o'clock in the evening, and I will not miss your time." ”

The guests who live on the second floor are not subject to the rules of the Taiji Building, they are free to go where they want and what they want to do, and they don't even need to know their names, just like the guests who live in the room inside, Shen Qingjiu has never seen a real person so far.

Shen Qingjiu shook his head and said, "You can come and go freely, you don't need to explain it to me." ”

Yueqing disagreed, smiled and said: "The so-called local customs, I live in Taiji Building now, naturally I have to abide by the rules of Taiji Building, living here, it is already a disturbance, and I should not bring trouble to the master's family, hmm...... Is there anything embarrassing about Xiaojiu, the knotted brows are about to wrinkle. ”

Wrinkles?

Shen Qingjiu raised his hand and touched his forehead, and said with a flat mouth: "I won't have wrinkles, I'm only sixteen years old." ”

Yueqing put one hand on the counter and said, "Yes, you are only sixteen years old, so, there is nothing to worry about, at this age, it should be a carefree time, I am in a hurry, go first." ”

After saying that, he also blinked his eyes and said, "Be happy." ”

At this point, he didn't continue, turned around and walked out of the gate of the Taiji Tower, and disappeared into the night.

Shen Qingjiu thought about what he said: "Be happy...... Huh, lollipops? ”

On the counter, where Fang Caiqing's hand was placed, a lollipop wrapped in colored paper appeared in front of her, seeing this lollipop, Shen Qingjiu was stunned at first, and then laughed, and said to himself: "There is nothing that cannot be solved, I will definitely be able to get the Shenzhu back." ”

The sweetness of the lollipop melted in his mouth, and it was sweet to his heart, and Shen Qingjiu's spiritual qi seemed to be back, and at this time, he saw Yue standing in front of her, wearing his cap, wearing a black dress, and holding his peach wood sword in his hand.

Shen Qingjiu asked tentatively: "Are you going out?" ”

Yue stretched out a finger and propped up the brim of his cap, his overly pale face, his eyes looked at Shen Qingjiu, and said, "There are a lot of demons in the demon city recently. ”

Recently, there are not only a lot of demons, but the demon city often loses things, and there is no such quiet and peaceful atmosphere at night, in addition to the people of the Demon Hunting Mansion in the demon city, there are also people from the Demon Capital Security Department who are also acting, however, even so, the thief who stole the things has not been caught, and there are more things missing.

Shen Qingjiu nodded in response and said, "Remember to come back before twelve o'clock at midnight." ”

Yue put his hand down, the brim of his cap hid his face in a shadow, he put one hand on the counter, his fingers curled, as if holding something, after a while, he said: "No. 128 Four Seasons Street, there is an antique shop in the corner, there is an old man with a hunchback in the shop, give him this, he will take you to where you want to go." ”

After saying this, he left, leaving the Taiji Building, and there was no more nonsense.

Shen Qingjiu also saw what he left behind, it was a small wooden card, and there was a word engraved on the wooden card, the word "month", and then thinking about what Fang Caiyue said, Shen Qingjiu reacted, and said in surprise: "It won't be ......"

Before the words came out, Shen Qingjiu covered her mouth with both hands, sat down on the chair, and after her mood calmed down, she carefully put the small wooden card into her pocket, and then patiently waited for the arrival of midnight.

This night, it was very quiet, no new guests came, and the guests who lived in the room did not find anything for her to do, what Bai Ruyu did to Ah Le last time successfully let him know how powerful Bai Ruyu was, and he no longer dared to find trouble, and the big spider always lay quietly on Bai Jingjing's shoulder, according to Yun Ge, he never left for a moment, probably because he really didn't find anything useful from behind, so give up.

Yueqing came back from outside at half past eleven, and brought a cup of bubble tea to Shen Qingjiu, and then, yawned and went upstairs to sleep, he seemed to be in a good mood, as if he had encountered something good.

Twenty minutes later, Yueya walked back from outside, his face was not good, his cloak was torn, it was obvious that he had a fight with the same person, but, looking at this appearance, there was a high probability that he had lost, or he didn't catch the demon he wanted to catch, and he didn't say a word to Shen Qingjiu, like a piece of ice, he walked past Shen Qingjiu's side and returned to his own room.

When the two of them came back, Shen Qingjiu looked at the time, closed the door of the Taiji Building, left only one lamp in the lobby, re-lit the three incense sticks, put two wines, and after chattering for a while, he also went upstairs to sleep.

It's a rare night that she didn't dream, but Shen Qingjiu still didn't sleep well, she put the wooden card that Yue handed over to him under the pillow, and woke up almost every hour, and then, touching the bottom of the pillow, the wooden card was still there, and the window was still closed, so she would continue to sleep with peace of mind.

Tossed a few times in one night, the little fox was going to be made a nervous breakdown by her, at dawn, Shen Qingjiu got up, but the little fox fell asleep in a daze, and did not come to ask Shen Qingjiu for breakfast.

Shen Qingjiu got up quietly, washed and dressed, took the wooden card given to her by Haoyue, as well as her black and white umbrella, and the schoolbag containing the secret record of the demon capital, came out of the room, and closed the door properly.

"Hey, little girl!"

Bai Ruyu's crisp voice sounded in his ears.

Shen Qingjiu's soul was frightened by her all of a sudden, and said, "Bai Ruyu, you don't have to be so loud, I can hear it." ”

Bai Ruyu quickly blinked her beautiful big silver mirrors, and said with a smile: "You are quiet, like a thief, hey, you have cleaned up so neatly, where do you want to go, I want to go too!" ”

Shen Qingjiu hadn't answered her question yet, Shao Siyu was already standing behind Bai Ruyu, and Shen Qingjiu said first: "Let's go to the study and say, we are indeed going out today." ”

The three of them walked down from the upper floor, and after Shen Qingjiu greeted Yun Ge at the front desk, he took Shao Siyu and Bai Ruyu into the study and closed the door.

Looking at her mysterious appearance, Bai Ruyu's curiosity became even greater, and said: "Little girl, tell me quickly, where are we going today, do we want to go to Xuanji Pavilion again, are we going to fight, we bring the little red bird, there are many people with great strength, and they fall into the water, don't look at the little red bird with a broken mouth, the fight is still very powerful!" ”

I like to fight so much, and I'm still a girl, and there's no one else.

Shen Qingjiu found that Suzaku did not follow Bai Ruyu, probably because he was locked in the room by Shao Siyu, after all, Suzaku, as a male, could not sleep with Bai Ruyu, he lived in the same room with Shao Siyu.

However, without Suzaku, it was a lot cleaner.

Shao Siyu opened his mouth and said: "Ruyu, don't talk first, wait for Xiaojiu to say." ”

Bai Ruyu really closed her mouth, looked at Shen Qingjiu with blank eyes, and waited for her to say.

Shen Qingjiu stretched out his hand and put the wooden card that Yue handed over to her last night on the coffee table in front of him, and said, "Yue told me last night that with this thing, I can go where I want to go, and he suddenly said this......"

Bai Ruyu interrupted her words suddenly, and said: "It turns out that this is what you said, I know this, this is something that can take you into the 'black market', you don't know yet, the stinky wood has accepted Yue as an apprentice, this is a meeting gift, from today onwards, you don't have to worry about Yue getting into trouble for you anymore." ”

"Huh?"

Shen Qingjiu no longer thought that Shao Siyu would agree to accept the moon as an apprentice, she looked at Shao Siyu in surprise and said, "So, are you doing this for me?" ”

Shao Siyu's eyes were calm, and he said: "Since Yue wants to worship me as a teacher, and accepting him as an apprentice, it is not a troublesome matter, rather than leaving this matter aside, it is better to solve it as soon as possible and save trouble." ”

Bai Ruyu sat next to him and complained: "The mouth is as hard as a stone, it shouldn't call you stinky wood, it should call you a stinky stone, or a stinky and hard stinky stone that grows in the pit." ”

Shao Siyu didn't care, his eyes fell on Shen Qingjiu's body, and said, "Since we have obtained the token, without further ado, let's set off." ”

Bai Ruyu opened his mouth and asked, "Don't you bring the little red bird, he can track the breath of the Divine Bead." ”

Shao Siyu obviously hesitated, he had always made a decision on the spot, and rarely hesitated, but now he actually hesitated, Shen Qingjiu had a feeling that Shao Siyu didn't want to bring Suzaku, but in the end, he was relieved and said, "I'll call him." ”

After calling Suzaku, a few people left Taiji Tower and came to Four Seasons Street.
