Chapter 2 The old alleys have not been returned

At the end of Zhengxian North City, staggered alleys have been made into fireworks houses, and a group of children are surrounded by dilapidated vending machines at the corner of the alleys.

The early dawn sun shines down through the gaps in the eaves, dissipating the afterglow of the night!

With the sound of the automatic cleaning vehicle "squeak, squeak", a lonely figure slowly came with the moisture of the early morning!

"Brother Nine is back, Brother Nine is back!"

A sharp-eyed little girl saw the returning figure and shouted loudly, and at the same time rushed towards Chen Xiaojiu!

It's just that the running posture looks extremely uncoordinated, like a duck struggling forward.

led to being overtaken by a group of children behind him.

Suddenly, Chen Xiaojiu was surrounded by a group of chirping children, pulling his trouser legs forward.

The backward little girl sat on the ground with big watery eyes and sobbed quietly: "Obviously I saw it first, I saw it first......"

Suddenly, the whole body was lifted out of thin air by a large hand, and then he sat on a solid shoulder.

The little girl rubbed her crying red eyes, turned her head to look at the familiar face, burst into tears and smiled, buried her whole head on Chen Xiaojiu's shoulder and refused to get up.

When Chen Xiaojiu sent the last little kid next to him with a drink, the little girl was secretly looking at the gift box he was carrying.

Chen Xiaojiu couldn't help but smile and comforted the little figure on his shoulder, "Don't look at it, this is your gift!"

"Really, thank you, Brother Nine," the little girl looked up and snapped at him on the right cheek.

The laughter of one big and one small spread throughout the alley.

Carrying the little girl, Chen Xiaojiu asked the little girl: "Nannan, have you listened to your aunt in the past few days?"

While responding to the greetings of the neighborhoods who got up early.

"Xiao Jiu, where have you been running to make money these days, young people should also pay attention to their bodies!"

Chen Xiaojiu responded: "Master Fu, your body is very good, I will practice with you for a few days, and maybe I can enter the city defense department." ”

"You little bastard knows how to tease your uncle and me. ”

"Don't talk about it, there is still a group of old men waiting for me to lead the dance, see you later, I have time to eat at Fu Ye's house with the little girl!"

Chen Xiaojiu and the little girl rolled their eyes in unison, and slipped away as if they hadn't heard.

The little girl whispered something in his ear, causing the two of them to laugh!

In this way, I walked all the way to a compound where I lived alone, a few pots of flowers bloomed at the door, and the two stone lions on the side of the lining were extraordinary!

Pushing open the heavy wooden door, the little girl who had just been put on the ground and had not yet stood firm carried the one handed over by Chen Xiaojiu and continued to rush towards the slender figure in the courtyard who heard the sound.

"A-Niang, A-Niang, Brother Jiu bought me a gift"

A graceful and elegant woman helplessly picked up the little girl who was dancing, tidied up her messy clothes, and said, "Then have you thanked Brother Jiu!"

The little girl nodded solemnly: "I kissed Brother Jiu, I decided to marry Brother Jiu when I grow up, and let him buy me the best gift every year!"

completely ignored the dust Xiaojiu who was already full of black lines on the side.

"The girl's family says something inconsequential. The woman holding the little girl stroked her forehead and shook her head, angrily tapped the tip of the little girl's nose and preached!

"No matter what, no matter what, people are going to marry Brother Jiu!" The little girl broke free from the woman's embrace, trotted to the side of Chen Xiaojiu, stared at him with a pair of big eyes, and crossed her waist to look up at him.

There is quite a momentum that you want to look good if you don't agree!

Chen Xiaojiu directly snapped his finger at his head and "jumped" at his head, and laughed angrily: "You are not ashamed, when did your ninth brother lack your gifts!"

The little girl who was bounced in the head was annoyed and angry, and the little foot girl kicked the dust and Xiaojiu's face hard, and Tsundere turned her head and ran into the inner room with a gift!

Leaving the two to look at each other and smile helplessly!

"Xiao Jiu, you sit, the meal is almost ready, drink some tea and pad your stomach first!" The graceful woman made a pot of tea and pulled Xiao Jiu to sit on the stone chair on the side!

"Aunt Shen, you're welcome, I'll come by myself. Chen Xiaojiu hurriedly took the teapot and poured two cups of tea!

The woman known as Aunt Shen looked at the thin young man in front of her and couldn't help but sigh: "I'm thin again"

Chen Xiaojiu shrugged his shoulders, drank the tea, and said, "So didn't you come back to find Aunt Shen to eat!"

"You, you, I'll stay for a few more days when I come back, and I won't be able to catch you a few times a month!" Aunt Shen glanced at the young man who was wrong and said helplessly!

Chen Xiaojiu shook the freshly poured tea and took a sip: "Auntie, have you been a guest in the past few days?"

Aunt Shen heard a shock to her body, and after a while, she said quietly: "I know that I can't fill you, and someone from my mother's house is here!"

"Old Ancestor hopes that I can take Xiaoxi back. ”

"My eldest brother came in person, and Xiaoxi has also met"

After hearing this, Chen Xiaojiu took out a plain black card from his pocket and pushed it in front of Aunt Shen.

"The stored value of the spiritual source in this is enough for Xiao Xi to enter the golden tide twice, and it has not been certified yet, you can put it away." ”

Aunt Shen excitedly pushed the card back, and before she could speak, Chen Xiaojiu said calmly: "Xiaoxi's body can't be delayed, whether you decide to go back or not, it's always good to have a few more chances!"

"Besides, if you really can't do it, you can use it as a little girl's bride price."

Aunt Shen couldn't cry or laugh when she heard this, and slowly got up and saluted solemnly: "Aunt Shen is here to thank you for that girl, great kindness, toothless and unforgettable!"

Chen Xiaojiu quickly got up and helped Aunt Shen up, waved his hand, shook his head and said, "How can there be any kindness, every month and every month, you have to thank God if you don't dislike me!"

At this time, Xiao Xi rushed out with a shout, "Ah Niang, look at my helmet, hurry up, hurry up!"

The girl wearing a pink helmet threw herself into Xiao Jiu's arms: "Thank you, Brother Jiu, I like you the most!"

"Hahaha, little girl, my uncle is here to celebrate your birthday" The rough voice was not over, and a middle-aged man strode into the courtyard with great strides!

Xiao Xi took off his helmet and walked towards the man when he heard the voice, and stretched out his little hand like a treasure: "Uncle, show you, my favorite gift, the latest military virtual mecha helmet, I can use it to fight with many big monsters!"

Looking at the dancing villain in front of him, thinking about the gift he had prepared, the man's face couldn't help twitching, and he glared back fiercely.

The yellow-haired young man who was stared at buttoned his head weakly, who would have thought that a little girl liked to fight and kill.

Behind him, a girl wearing a black mask covered her mouth and chuckled, Lianbu stepped forward, half-squatted in front of Xiao Xi, and asked in a low voice: "Tell my sister, do you like mechas?"

Xiao Xi looked at the stranger in front of him, pointed to someone sitting on the stone chair and drinking tea leisurely, and replied twisting the corner of his skirt: "Brother Jiu said that snails can drill shells!"

Hearing this, everyone present twitched the corners of their mouths, and the girl turned her head directly, her willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she glared at someone who was calm fiercely.

And sitting on the side, Chen Xiaojiu felt a few unkind eyes, and he was also speechless, and sighed in his heart: "For no reason, I have a black cauldron on my back, a little troublemaker!"

And the little girl grinned again, "But Xiaoxi likes to be a snail"

Although she is very dissatisfied with comparing the mecha to a snail, the girl doesn't care anymore, she likes the mecha as well, she believes that she will have a lot of time to correct the little girl's "wrong thoughts!"

Then he removed the long black chain on his white wrist and placed it on Xiao Xi's small wrist, and the bracelet automatically wound and then evolved into a pink ribbon.

Xiao Xi curiously touched the smooth ribbon on his hand, and asked puzzledly: "Sister, will it change?"

And Aunt Shen, who was on the side, wanted to stop the girl the moment she took off the bracelet, but the middle-aged man shook his head and signaled that there was no need to say more.

The girl took off her mask, revealing her alluring face, and smiled slyly at the little girl, "This is the shell prepared for you!"

Xiao Xi dissipated and didn't understand the girl's ridicule, but he also felt that the bracelet was unusual, and stepped forward to kiss the girl lightly on the forehead, which provoked the girl to smile!

The middle-aged man kicked the yellow-haired young man who was squatting aside and counting ants with nothing to do: "Ahem, take out what I gave Xiaoxi!"

The yellow-haired young man stepped forward, took off a small jade gourd hanging from his waist, and lightly clicked: "A pile of colorful jade stones and all kinds of skirts are piled up into a small hill."

Looking at the stunned little girl, the man shouted proudly: "It's not in vain that I broke my leg and swept a few shopping malls directly, it seems that Xiaoxi still likes it very much!"

At the same time, he shamelessly put his face close to Xiao Xi, and put his hands together, "Xiao Xixi, I want to reward you too"!

Before Xiaoxi could act, a big hand slammed his face down, instantly making him lie on the ground and unable to move.

The middle-aged man who did it touched his beard, and said with a pleasant face: "Does Xiaoxi like it? If you don't like it, your uncle will take you out in a few days and buy it again!"

With a wave of his hand, he recalled the small gourd suspended in the air and hung it on Xiao Xi's waist.

"Xiaoxi likes it very much, thank you uncle. But Xiaoxi has a lot of clothes, so don't buy them for me from my uncle. The little girl shook her uncle's hand and said cutely!

Looking at the obviously whitewashed and faded skirt on the little girl, the middle-aged man's eyes were red for a while, and he didn't know what to say!

At this time, Aunt Shen had already taken the time to put the dishes on the table and beckoned everyone to sit down and discuss.

The yellow-haired young man who was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead sat down at the table in a hurry, picked up the chopsticks and grabbed them, eating happily, and at the same time whimpered and said: "Auntie, I haven't eaten your dishes for more than ten years!"

Aunt Shen led Xiaoxi with one hand and the girl to the table with the other, and said with a little emotion: "Xiao Xuanzi has grown up and has now become a man." ”

Looking carefully at the large table of people in front of the table to the right, tears couldn't help but slide down.

Family reunion, this table has not been full for ten years, it seems like a dream.

The girl wiped away her tears for her aunt, and choked up excitedly: "Auntie, Xiaohuang has seen you again, my mother has been thinking about you all these years, if there are some things that really can't go, she will come to pick you up together."

Aunt Shen calmed down and looked at the girl in front of her who seemed to be out of the water.

Her favorite thing at the beginning was to secretly kidnap the two children of her brother's family and mess up the Heavenly Daoist Pavilion like crazy.

After being detained, the three depressed people waited for their sister-in-law to come and receive the person in a domineering manner, and finally knelt together in the ancestral shrine to receive the punishment.

Now the girl has shone brightly, and she has added a few strands of gray hair.

Time has smoothed out the uninhibited and arrogant, and portrayed the shackles that belong to life.

"Mom, don't sigh, you'll get wrinkles. ”

"On my birthday this year, I want to make a wish, wishing my mother, brother, sister, uncle, brother and brother always happy"

Xiao Xi's voice sounded and immediately swept away the sad atmosphere on the table, everyone looked at each other and smiled, time represents the past, and at the same time it is pregnant with new life!

"Stupid, it won't work if you say your wish" Chen Xiaojiu's words can always break the warm atmosphere suddenly.

Looking at the little girl who was about to cry, Shen Huang directly poured the rice in his hand into the bowl that was about to be emptied.

Angry scolding: "Eat, and at the same time close your mouth"

Aunt Shen comforted Xiaoxi and hurriedly played a round: "These two children are usually used to scolding each other"

Xiaoxi snorted: "Bad brother, I want to make a new wish, I won't add you to this year's wish, who told you to make me angry"

Chen Xiaojiu also rolled his eyes, thinking: "I can't do it every year if I say cruel things every year." ”

This is Aunt Shen introducing Chen Xiaojiu to the middle-aged man, "If it weren't for Xiao Jiu's gang for ten years, it is estimated that Xiaoxi and I may not be able to hold on for a long time!"

Ten years ago, when they wandered to Zhengxian North City and lived in a fixed place, a six-year-old child gave them a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

In the face of gossip, it was the boy in front of him who dispelled the idea of bullying others with a knife.

Xiao Jiu is the light that gave her and Xiao Xi to live in the dark!

The short sentence made the middle-aged man's face feel guilty and distressed.

He stood up with a "poof" and bent down in the direction of Chen Xiaojiu!

"Brother"

"Father"

The shocked Shen Huang and Shen Xuan also stood up and silently bent forward!

If the identities of the three people present spread out, it would set off a shock and storm in the Northern Demon Domain and even the entire Mobei!

But at this moment, he bent down to an unknown teenager.

Chen Xiaojiu turned sideways and did not accept the thanks of the three of them, and said indifferently: "Do it easily" and did not continue!

Then he turned around and waved his hand backwards: "Aunt Shen, I'm full, I'll go back first" The figure disappeared into the alley in the blink of an eye.

Passing through the alley, at the end stands a small two-story building, hidden in the dense trees.

Green vines wrapped around the eaves, and hanging yellow flowers knocked on the doors and windows.

Push the door, open the window, the sunlight shines through the gap in the trees into the doors and windows, and you can see the books, which are placed in the closet and desk in twos and threes!

There are music classics from the old century, and there are also introductory courses for mecha repair.

There are talismans, basics, and illustrations of knives, guns, and clubs.

It's more about descriptions of the world as a whole and even extraterritorial exploration books.

On the bedside table in the bedroom is a book written by a former madman of the Tendo Pavilion.

The breeze shines through the window, blowing the paper. In the margins of the first page is inscribed a sentence that is out of place in the book: "The grass that survives in the darkness does not yearn for light!"

Chen Xiaojiu walked to the desk in front of the window, took out a worn-out pocket watch in his arms, put his middle and index fingers together, outlined the halo, and floated out of two objects.

Landing on the table was a pink letterhead and a half-cut sword.

Chen Xiaojiu tapped the hilt of the sword and muttered, "Leave the Ming Ye Huo." ”

Then he curled up in a rocking chair next to him and slowly closed his eyes.
