That night, Xie Yinian lay on the bed and thought about it for a long time.

Help the ghosts complete their obsessions, this thing must be right.

But as Ms. Yao said, before he can do the right thing, he needs to make sure he is safe.

Two or three more events happened today, and he would definitely be distracted from his compassion, and even if he knew that he shouldn't be angry with other ghosts, he wouldn't bother to help the ghosts again.

Be vigilant in moderation, it's a protection for yourself.

The next morning, Ban Xi and Xie Yinian met in the gymnasium.

They're going to complete the second commission today.

The second commission was not difficult, Xie Yinian assisted with the formation, and Ban Xi attacked with a talisman and easily took down the ghost.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner."

Ban Xi hugged Xie Yinian's shoulder, looking like a good brother.

During the meal, Ban Xi transferred one-third of the commission fee he received to Xie Yinian.

Xie Yinian knew that this was the rule, so he accepted it with peace of mind: "What are you going to do with the three ghosts yesterday?" ”

Ban Xi said, "Purify them of their resentment and send them to reincarnation." ”

Xie Yinian nodded, he could only do this step if he came to do it.

Ban Xi took a sip of ice cream and stared at Xie Yinian back and forth, his mouth still amazed.

Xie Yinian was inexplicable: "What's wrong?" ”

"A year ago, you were a rookie, and now you can seal a ghost alone. This cultivation speed is too exaggerated. ”

Xie Yinian raised his chin slightly: "It's all taught well by my master." ”

Ban Xi scratched his lungs with curiosity: "What kind of sacredness is your master?" ”

Xie Yinian: "Can this tell you casually?" ”

Ban Xi laughed and scolded: "Look at your sassy look. ”

Of course, Xie Yinian was proud.

There is such a good master as Ms. Yao, who doesn't steal fun, who steals fun.

Ban Xi pulled Xie Yinian into a group chat called "I really can't catch ghosts".

Xie Yinian stared at the name of this group chat: "......"

In the next second, three messages popped up in the group chat, all of which were sent by the same person:

[A look at the ice clouds: Wuhu, there are newcomers again]

[A look at the ice clouds: welcome newcomers! ] 】

[A view of the ice clouds: yes, Ban Banxi, where did the newcomer come from]

[Danhua Guan Ban Xi: Go and go, don't scare the Nianzi. 】

[A view of the ice clouds: still use me to scare newcomers? Just the name of the group chat you took, but everyone who joined the group should be taken aback, okay]

It can be seen that Zhan Bingyun has a deep grudge against this group chat. Xie Yinian was amused in his heart, and hurriedly said hello in the group, and learned from them to change the remarks to their real names.

[A look at Zhan Bingyun: Hey, why don't you note the name of your family, you're not the Xie family? 】

[Xie Yinian: No, no, I have no door and no faction]

[A look at Zhan Bingyun: Oh, oh, oh, I'm really embarrassed, in the Heavenly Master Realm, ten people with the surname Xie, nine of them are from the Xie family, I see that you are also surnamed Xie, so I made a mistake. 】

[Xie Yinian: It's okay, it's okay]

Xie Yinian quietly clicked on the group list.

There are only eight members in the group, three of them are from Danhuaguan, and the remaining four are also remarked with the name of the family or Taoist temple, only he does not have any prefix.

It's no wonder that Zhan Bingyun misunderstood at first.

[Danhua Guan Ban Xi: My eldest lady, please, what is the relationship between you and the Xie family, I pulled the Xie family into the group with my front foot, and my back foot was not torn by you]

[A look at Zhan Bingyun: You are wrong, if you pull the vein of the former patriarch, I will definitely raise my hands and feet to welcome, don't talk about anything else]

【Danhua Guanbanxi:...... Forget about the small group, don't say these things in public]

[A view of the ice clouds: hey, hey, I know]

[Danhua Guan Ban Xi: By the way, I forgot to introduce it just now, Nianzi is the one I said, and it only took three days to successfully host the newcomer of the conjuring ceremony! 】

Not only Zhan Bingyun, but also the other two divers were blown up by Banxi's news.

Zhan Bingyun was the most excited: [Wow, wow, wow, I spent five days at the time, and my master was so excited that he couldn't sleep, what is the concept of three days. Nianzi, if you think it's convenient, let's exchange the experience of the conjuring ritual together! 】

[Danhua Guan Ban Xi: Tut-tut, what is it called! ] Do you know people, you just shout]

[A look at the ice clouds: go and go, chatting and chatting will not be familiar]

Xie Yinian probably guessed Zhan Bingyun's identity.

She is the natural yin and yang eyes who are as famous as Xie Chuan of the Xie family.

Born with yin and yang eyes can pass through ghosts and gods, you can see the hiding place of ghosts at a glance, and discover the place where evil people live, which can be said to be the natural nemesis of ghosts.

No wonder she was so obsessed with this group chat name.

With her talents, she is definitely one of the best ghost catchers of the younger generation.

Just thinking about Zhan Bingyun's identity, Xie Yinian received a friend application from Zhan Bingyun.

He hurriedly clicked through.

[A look at Zhan Bingyun: Nianzi, I must be older than you, in the future, if you call me Sister Bingyun, I will cover you for anything]

Xie Yinian's eyes were slightly bent, and he didn't have the interest to sweep Zhan Bingyun: [Sister Bingyun is good]

Zhan Bingyun is worthy of being a good friend of Ban Xi, and the two have many similarities in their personalities, and they are both very enthusiastic.

It's just that compared to Ban Xi, Zhan Bingyun's personality is more love-hate and distinct.

It can be seen from the fact that she talked to Ban Xi about the Xie family.

What happened to the Xie family back then that made Ban Xi and Zhan Bingyun look disgusted when they mentioned the Xie family?

Ban Xi spoke up and introduced to Xie Yinian: "Yiguan is the best at making tools. If you want to make any magic weapons in the future, or what magic weapons you want to buy, you can find Zhan Bingyun. ”

Xie Yinian said: "I didn't expect Sister Bingyun to be so powerful in making weapons. ”

Ban Xi has a toothache, why does Zhan Bingyun love to let others call her sister so much: "In these years, in addition to the job of catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits, everyone will learn one or two other subjects." ”

"It's like I'm good at making talismans, you're good at formations, and Zhan Bingyun is good at magic weapons. If you are not good at anything, you will not only have to buy talismans in the future, but also buy array plates, and even more importantly, you have to buy magic weapons, there are too many places to burn money. ”

Xie Yinian thought so.

On several occasions he had to draw the array plates, all of which had to be made with powder made of gold.

Ban Xi was happy again: "The three of us just complement each other. Nianzi, you hurry up and improve the level of the formation, if you have any entrusted tasks in the future, I will call you to do it with Zhan Bingyun. ”

Ban Xi also knew other young Celestial Masters who were good at formations.

But Ban Xi himself is the best of the younger generation, and the one who can get into his eyes and make him invite him must of course be equally good people.

With Xie Yinian's help, both tasks were completed very smoothly, and after surpassing Xu Xing and them, Ban Xi said goodbye and left D City.

In the blink of an eye, it's the birthday of the dean's grandmother again.

Xie Yinian called Zhuzi and made an appointment with Zhuzi to go back to the orphanage together: "You go and order the cake, I will buy snacks and fruits, and the dishes will be taken care of by others." ”

Yao Rong suddenly said, "I'll go to the orphanage with you." ”

Xie Yinian looked at her.

Yao Rong said softly: "I want to go to the place where you lived when you were a child." ”

The two went to the supermarket first, bought a bunch of fruit snacks, and bought a lot of nutritious products, and then took a taxi to the orphanage.

The pillar arrived a little earlier than them, and when he heard the movement, he came out of the orphanage, and when he saw Yao Rong, his face was a little surprised: "Nianzi, you are here, this is ......"

He didn't misunderstand the relationship between Yao Rong and Xie Yinian.

The relationship between Yao Rong and Xie Yinian is very close, and the atmosphere is also very harmonious, but this closeness is the warmth of relatives, not the sweetness of lovers.

Xie Yinian introduced: "This is my master. ”

"It turned out to be the master of Nianzi! Hello Master, Hello Master! The sun is so big outside, come in! ”

The pillar was in awe, beckoned Yao Rong into the house, and took the heavy fruit she was carrying by the way.

"I'm in trouble." Yao Rong smiled slightly, this smile diluted the momentum on her body, and she was a little approachable and gentle, "You are the pillar, Yi Nian often mentions you to me." Don't call me Master, just call me Aunt Yao. ”

Zhu Zi said happily: "Hey, Aunt Yao! ”

Xie Yinian: "......"

Why does he have to call Ms. Yao, but this guy can call Aunt Yao!

It's not fair!

Apparently he came first!

Xie Yinian glared at the pillar angrily, but the pillar didn't look at him at all, and shouted at Aunt Yao on the left and Aunt Yao on the right.

More than half a year ago, Xie Yinian anonymously donated a large sum of money to the orphanage.

With this money, the orphanage was simply renovated, but in some places it is still difficult to see financial difficulties.

When she entered the hospital, Yao Rong went to greet the dean first, and stuffed the skin care products she specially bought to the dean: "The first time I came, I brought some gifts." ”

The dean smiled kindly: "You are too polite. ”

Yao Rong said sincerely: "You are an elder, you should be." ”

After a few small talks, other children who had already grown up in the orphanage came to the director.

Yao Rong didn't disturb them to catch up, and wandered around the courtyard alone.

She walked from the courtyard to the teaching building, walked around the classroom, and was just about to walk out, when the system reminded her: [Host, look at the wall on your left]

Yao Rong's footsteps froze, walked to the wall, and looked left and right several times before he knew what the system wanted her to see.

The walls were covered with children's graffiti, and the walls that were once white had become dusty.

But between the graffiti, there is a high wall sticker.

There is also a column of markers next to the height wall sticker.

From one meter, to one meter one, one meter two...... One meter seven.

Finally, there is 1.75 meters.

Then, next to each mark, someone wrote a crooked name in pencil: Xie Yinian.

In a trance, Yao Rong seemed to see a little boy about four years old, holding a pencil and drawing in front of the wall for a long time, leaving a heavy first stroke.

After that, the little boy grows up to five years old and then to six years old......

He would measure his height every year, and he would also make a note on the wall by the way.

Until he grows to 1.75 meters and grows into half an adult.

"So you're here, I've been looking for you just now."

The young man's voice was as clear as the June sun coming from outside the classroom.

Xie Yinian was wearing a yellow pullover shirt, walked briskly to Yao Rong's side, followed her gaze, and laughed with surprise: "Hey, you have found out about this." ”

"Is there anything you want me to do?"

"I didn't see you in the yard."

"Didn't I say that I wanted to see where you grew up, so I wandered around the orphanage." Yao Rong took Xie Yinian's arm and instructed him to stand in front of the wall, "I haven't measured my height this year." ”

"No ......"

Yao Rong took out a pencil from the pen holder next to him and turned it around his fingertips: "You have grown a lot taller." ”

"Really!?" Xie Yinian said.

"Really." Yao Rong also smiled and asked him to stand still.

She measured his height with her eyes, raised her hand to carve a new mark on the wall, and wrote his name next to the mark: "One meter seven or eight." ”

"In the future, it will grow to 1.85 meters."

Yao Rong put the pencil back into the pen holder: "Why are you so tall?" ”

"Of course it's good to be taller." Xie Yinian leaned closer to look at her words, and then looked down at his own words below, feeling that his eyes were ugly, "I'll take you to see the lychee trees I planted." ”

"You also planted trees?"

"yes, it's good-looking." Xie Yinian took Yao Rong to the courtyard and pointed to the lychee tree in the corner of the wall ostentatiously. He also jumped up to pick lychees for Yao Rong, "Don't look at the skin of the lychees, they are all green, not a little red, in fact, they are sweet." ”

Yao Rong peeled it off and sniffed it: "I know it's sweet when it smells." ”

"It'll be more ripe in a few days, but it won't stay at all. One was picked naked by other children without noticing. ”

Yao Rong smiled: "It seems that you have experienced it." ”

The sultry summer breeze passed through the low courtyard wall, blowing the branches and leaves of the lychee trees, blowing the broken hair in front of Xie Yinian's forehead, revealing his full forehead.

He recounted his youthful years.

"When the lychee tree bears fruit in the first year, I waited and waited, but when I saw it the next morning, I was dumbfounded, and the ground was full of lychee shells. I cried so badly that the dean's grandmother punished them and bought me a lot of fruit to eat at her own expense. ”

"I'm the only one. None of them. ”

Before Yao Rong could say anything, Xie Yinian suddenly smiled at her.

The sporadic sun passed through the branches and fell into his eyes.

There was a fox-like cunning in his eyes.

"Actually, I'm not that angry. But who told them to steal my lychees, I had to cry super loudly, so that the dean's grandmother felt sorry for me and favored me. ”

Yao Rong stared at him: "Do you like to be favored?" ”

Xie Yinian was a little uncomfortable by her, and raised his hand to pat the branches and leaves of the lychee tree: "I like it." In the orphanage, everything is fair, and each child eats the same amount of fruit, takes the same amount of pencils, and divides the same amount of chicken. But who doesn't love special treatment. ”

"But the dean's grandmother is already very tired, and I can't be ignorant and can't cause them unnecessary trouble. So the opportunity to be eccentric is rare. ”

Yao Rong stood on tiptoe and also picked a bunch of lychees for Xie Yinian: "What are the children who grew up in the orphanage?" ”

Xie Yinian lowered his head and ate slowly: "Let me tell you about the other children I saw." ”

"Most of them are very sensible."

"But in fact, everyone has their own thoughts. Everyone knows how to please the dean's grandmother and them, and they also know what kind of children adults like the most, and then they will subconsciously play like this. ”

"On the surface, they all say that the orphanage is their home, but in fact, more often, they still feel that they are under the fence and feel insecure."

Broken hair fell down on Xie Yinian's ears, half-covering his reddened ears.

"Grandma Dean is very kind to everyone, and she really treats everyone as her child. But there are too many children, and the love that the dean's grandmother has assigned to each child is less. ”

Yao Rong looked at Xie Yinian quietly and sadly.

He was also a child who grew up in an orphanage.

"What kind of eyes are you......" Xie Yinian looked up at the sky, "I'll go and see if there's anything on the other side of the pillar that needs my help." ”

When Yao Rong returned to the courtyard, everyone was sitting around and reminiscing about his childhood.

The pillar poured bitter water: "Nianzi, do you remember that when we were nine years old, we heard ghost stories, and you didn't dare to sleep in the middle of the night, so you ran to my bedside with a pillow and stood there." I was in a daze, and when I saw a person standing at the head of the bed, I was so frightened that I shouted Mom, there is a ghost. When you saw that I was frightened, you were not afraid, and ran back to your bed to sleep, but I didn't sleep all night, and the next day I was criticized by the dean's grandmother, saying that I was noisy with other people to sleep. ”

Xie Yinian's eyes widened: "Is there such a thing?" ”

The pillar affirmed: "Yes! ”

Xie Yinian spread his hands: "I forgot." ”

The pillar tugged at him: "There is one more thing, you must not have forgotten." When we were eight years old, a well-wisher who opened a lychee orchard sent several baskets of lychees to the courtyard. The dean's grandmother gave everyone ten pieces, lychees are expensive, everyone is eating lychees for the first time, and they are reluctant to eat them. It's just you, who finished eating in one go, staring at other people's lychees. ”

"And then you have a bad idea. You took the children of the whole house to play at home, and became everyone's elders, fooling everyone should be filial to you. Everyone was fooled by you, and each of you gave you a lychee, and you were worried that the dean's grandmother would find out, so you ate all the lychees in one go, and as a result, your throat became inflamed and you couldn't speak for several days. ”

The others chimed in on the side: "Yes, yes, yes, I can testify to the pillar about this matter, Nianzi, don't want to deny it again." ”

Even the dean smiled and said, "I remember it too." ”

Xie Yinian sighed: "Can't you remember some good things." ”

In the afternoon, Xie Yinian and the others went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Yao Rong pulled over a small bench and sat down next to the dean: "Dean, can I ask you something?" ”

The dean asked Yao Rong what he wanted to inquire.

"It's about Yi Nian being adopted." The cicadas on the lychee trees were chirping, and Yao Rong's voice was soft, "I want to know what happened back then to make him adopted twice, but he was abandoned twice." ”

Yao Rong looked at the dean with a pleading look in his eyes: "Can you tell me?" ”

She rarely begged for help, but this time, she wanted to know what happened to Xie Yinian.

Perhaps moved by Yao Rong's gaze, the dean hesitated for a long time before sighing: "You are Yao Rong's master, in other words, you are his elder." Since you want to know, I won't hide it from you. ”

"The first time he was adopted, he was adopted by a wealthy couple when he was four years old."

"In less than half a month, his adoptive father called me and said that Nianzi had some problems with his brain."

Anger rose from the bottom of her heart, dyeing Yao Rong's eyebrows and eyes, making her face appear cold as no one should enter.

The dean noticed Yao Rong's anger and shook his head: "His adoptive father said that the day after Nianzi arrived at the villa, he told them that there were a lot of strange things in the villa. ”

He described it in such detail that his adoptive parents thought it was mad to hear it, and they thought he was babbling at a young age. Nianzi probably knew that his adoptive parents didn't like him to say this, and said it twice and then never said it again. ”

But it didn't take long for his adoptive father to have an accident. They don't think that the accident was caused by their own negligence, but they feel that Nianzi's child has brought bad luck to their family. ”

So the adoptive parents sent Xie Yinian back to the orphanage like sending away the plague god.

"When Nianzi came back, he fell seriously ill, and when I asked him what happened, he refused to tell me."

Yao Rong closed her eyes, she probably guessed.

The special physique of the lunar year, the moon and the cloudy day, even if you have not undergone any cultivation, will occasionally encounter ghosts and evil things. Four-year-old Xie Yinian just told the family what he saw.

She slowly opened her eyes and asked, "What about the second time?" ”

The dean said, "The second time it was easy. When Nianzi was six years old, a couple who had been married for fifteen years and had no children adopted Nianzi. ”

"But less than two months after the couple's adoption, the woman found out she was pregnant."

"When Nianzi was sent back, he neither cried nor complained. He took my hand very calmly and told me that I didn't want to be adopted anymore and that I would stay in the orphanage forever. ”：，，
