Bone

Chapter 33

"The wontons are in the pot!"——

The wonton shop is small, and only the owner runs it inside and out. On the stove outside the shop, there is an iron pot separated by a grate. While the chicken soup is boiling, the wontons are ups and downs. Add a small spoonful of fillings with the left hand, and squeeze the fingers of the right hand to form wontons as delicate as swallows.Put the wontons into the pot one by one, pick them up after they are cooked, add chicken broth, soy sauce and vinegar in the bowl, sprinkle with chopped green onion, and Tan Fengyue took it over and put it in his hand.

Just after noon, there are many diners in the store.Due to the invisible existence of Sanjiu, they found a corner to sit in. Qin Nianjiu quickly set up a pair of chopsticks on the bowl, clasped his palms together and called the little ghost's name "Sanjiu" three times, and then sat down. Push the bowl in front of Sanjiu, "Eat quickly."

"I..." Sanjiu was still a little reluctant, and what he was thinking about was still finding someone to settle accounts, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was restrained by Tan Fengyue's eyes, and he could only honestly hold it up Ordered the wonton bowl --

"Hey?!" He exclaimed, "I can hold the bowl?!"

Qin Nianjiu rolled his eyes and showed him, "Otherwise we are playing monkeys with that set of movements?"

Being able to taste the five flavors again, Sanjiu didn't even have time to talk, she raised her head and snorted halfway through the wontons and soup, squinting her eyes in satisfaction, and raised the corners of her mouth.

Keeping watching carefully, Qin Nianjiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the corners of his mouth finally curled up - he was the one who decided to take this little devil back to Qinyuan to settle his grievances, if the grievances were not resolved and would add to his heartache, then he The guilt would be great.

I don't want him to keep paying attention to Sanjiu, but Sanjiu actually has been paying attention to him all the time. Seeing that his expression has relaxed, he knows that he is causing the Ghost King to worry.He bit his lips lightly, laughed, and exaggeratedly said: "It's delicious! I haven't tasted wonton for a long time, and I even forgot what it tastes like... What a ghost—good and bad, nothing at all Remember it!"

It's not that he's coaxing the ghost king with a forced smile, it's true.When he returned to his hometown and saw the old scene again, he only vaguely remembered a little bit of his life-really a little bit: he only remembered that his mother was not as he "remembered".

There is no such thing as "Mother loves me", there is no such thing as "I can't leave my eyes for a moment". In fact, he seems to seldom even see his mother's face, so that he can't remember her appearance clearly. Only You Shi emerged from the scene.All these are things from the past, and when I remember it, it feels like a lifetime ago, so I say sad, sad... It seems to be there, but it's not so real, it seems that there is an inexplicable emptiness in my heart, and I don't know what to fill it with.

"..."

Both Qin Nianjiu and Tan Fengyue have lost their memories. Although one has a misunderstanding and the other has a weak relationship, they are unexpectedly able to empathize with this little ghost-if they can find the old things one day, what should they think?Thinking of this, I couldn't help being speechless for a while.

Sanjiu didn't care if they were speechless or not, raised his bowl and raised his head, gulped down the remaining half bowl of wontons in one mouthful, wiped his mouth again, blinked and said, "Why don't you guys eat it?"

Put the head off.

Tan Fengyue didn't like this kind of snacks, so she said lightly that she wasn't hungry, but Qin Nianjiu was still in a daze, and answered half a beat later, "...I don't really want to eat."

The bowls of wontons in chicken soup just out of the pot are very delicious. It's not that he is not greedy, but... the thought of a bunch of hungry ghosts waiting under the table makes him lose his appetite.

"Hungry ghost? What's it like?" Sanjiu became curious after hearing his simple explanation, and immediately bent down and lifted the tablecloth to see, "Where is it? Why didn't I see it?"

Qin Nianjiu was very unwilling to watch the scene of the hungry ghosts piled up, and he didn't lower his head to verify it. He said casually, "Perhaps your knowledge is too shallow."

Sanjiuquan thought that he thought he was not good-looking, and intentionally bluffed himself to hold the bowls and chopsticks when eating. He snorted and didn't ask any more questions. He turned his head and complained about the sky, "It's getting dark too slowly this day! If that How can I help the dog thief escape!"

"Indeed..." Qin Nianjiu thought of the Taoist priest in Xibei Village who ran faster than a dog after committing evil deeds, and secretly said, "Why don't we go to the outside to check out the location and prevent them from slipping away? "

Their storefront is in Qinyuan Town. If you can run to a monk, you can also run to a temple.Tan Fengyue gave them both a blank look, but she didn't say anything wrong, she just sneered at Qin Nianjiu, "You know a lot, and you know how to 'step on the spot'."

Obviously I saw it all in the storybook... Qin Nianjiu hissed his teeth at him, and made a face, "Why, I was a villain and a villain in my lifetime. It's not like you don't know, Patriarch!"

He stood up, poked Tan Fengyue's back with the tip of his umbrella unceremoniously, and made a villainous gesture to threaten him, "Go to the store and ask for directions!"

"..." Tan Fengyue turned her head for a while, looked at him like a fool, didn't bother with the fool, and went as she said.

Sanjiu watched them fight, and the last trace of sadness in his heart was also suppressed, replaced by a smile, and he grinned happily.

According to the store owner, the "Yuntong" store has several warehouses, so the location is not in the center of the town, and it is relatively remote. If you are not familiar with the way, you should first look for the nearby "Changman Embroidery Workshop", and then go west to find it. .

Sanjiu seemed to have left the mother's affairs behind, and was very interested along the way, only talking about how to toss the kidnapper well later, patted his chest/chest and said: "According to me, there is no need Xianjun Guijun has come forward! I'm a professional at scaring people, and the safekeeping will make them scream and scream!"

He wiped his face, made a miserable face like a ghost, and said in a long and sharp voice: "Where do you escape—"

He put away his expression again, and asked happily: "How about this? Or is 'give me back my life—' more deterrent?"

No matter how evil the kidnapper was, he was still a mortal after all. Tan and Qin had no intention of making a move, so they responded as they heard what he had to say, "Okay, okay, it's all good... Changman Embroidery Workshop is here."

"It's a little eye-catching for two foreigners to go together," Tan Fengyue raised the third-nine-year-old leader who was about to rush westward, and brought him to Qin Nianjiu's side, "You guys wait here, I'll come after I go to check. "

After all, lift your legs and leave.

"Hey——" Qin Nianjiu kept yelling at him all the time, and looked at Sanjiu beside him who was still chattering non-stop, and pressed his forehead with a headache.This ancestor obviously didn't want to be quarreled, so he threw the kid to himself, and went to hide alone!

But Sanjiu suddenly let out a cry of surprise, and tugged at his sleeve, "Guijun Guijun, there is a beautiful lady over there looking at you!"

"Ok?"

Qin Nianjiu didn't understand why he turned his head away, only to see a girl sitting in the embroidery workshop, looking at her from a distance.Taking a closer look at his appearance, it was the one he had met in the temple.

The first time she saw her, she felt familiar, but the second time she saw her, she realized that this girl's appearance was... quite similar to that Luo Qingyu!

No wonder he didn't recognize it first, he had only seen the horrific Rakshasa face to face, and only seen a few scenes of her appearance in life in the phantom formation, and he almost forgot it if he didn't think about it—— Thinking about it, wasn't Luo Qingyu also redeemed from Ren Yazi by the people of Xibei Village?

Qin Nianjiu felt a chill down his spine, and was tugged by Sanjiu's sleeves again. He heard him say in a low voice, "You can't stare at a girl even if she's pretty... How rude!"

"..." It was true that he had been staring at her for too long, Qin Nianjiu hurriedly withdrew his thoughts, smiled apologetically at the girl, and was suddenly grabbed by the arm and pulled away.

It's about Fengyue.

This ghost, who has been busy worrying about others all the way, now has the leisure to flirt with girls—is he really coming back to save himself?Tan Fengyue was unhappy in her heart, but her expression didn't change, she dragged Qin Nianjiu to "Yuntong" in a muffled voice.

However, the ghost raised it without looking too far, "Talk about it, that girl just now... I met in the temple, she..."

Oh, it's kind of fate.Tan Fengyue let go of her hand suddenly, and interrupted him lightly, "It's useless to tell me, I have to find a matchmaker."

"...?" How did it get here?Qin Nianjiu was dumbfounded by his words, "No, you've been thinking about something all day long! I mean——"

But Sanjiu yelled, "It's that man! It's that man! There's a little mole on the tip of his nose!"

I saw that the man he was talking about was dressed in bunts, with thick and powerful arms, like someone doing manual labor. As soon as he stepped into the threshold of "Fortune", someone came forward to greet him with a smile, and greeted him respectfully. in.

Tan Fengyue and Qin Nianjiu looked at each other, they stopped bickering, Zhuo Sanjiu followed, held their breath and walked around to the back of the house.

It has not been found out what the situation is, so we can't rush in rashly, scare the snake, or catch the stolen goods and get the best.Qin Nianjiu held down Sanjiu who was about to move, put him back into the talisman, and climbed over the courtyard wall together with Tan Fengyue.

As soon as the toes touched the ground, a man dressed as a servant spotted them, and rushed over with a long stick and glared, "You——!"

Before he could utter the words "who is he?" Qin Nianjiu appeared behind him in a flash, and knocked him to the ground with a knife in his hand.

"..." Tan Fengyue calmly waved away the half-drawn spell at hand, watching the ghost in red dragged the person into the pile of fallen leaves with great agility, and then picked up a dead leaf and pressed it In the palm of the hand, with the fingers a little above, cast a "one leaf blinder".

"Blinding the eyes with a leaf" is just a side-by-side spell, and the range it can cover is very limited. With a dead leaf on his head, Qin Nianjiu is almost standing next to the wall with Tan Fengyue, looking inside through the window.

"Hurry up and serve tea to Brother Li." The chubby, gracefully dressed middle-aged man greeted the man with the mole on the tip of his nose to sit down and drink tea, and greeted him with a smile, "This delivery is far away, and the road is dangerous. , Brother Li, thank you for your hard work."

"Master Zhang is too polite," said the man surnamed Li with a hearty smile. "It's not safe to say, Mr. Zhang is generous and willing to take care of it, so the road will be easy. Where will the next batch of goods be delivered?" , or go to the imperial capital?"

"No, the town has recently developed a new purple color, which is very expensive. As soon as the cloth pattern was delivered to the imperial capital, there were piles of orders, and all the wives were eager to get it." Zhang Weishan rubbed his hands cheerfully. Rubbing his hands together, he said again: "Counting it all together, I haven't been to the imperial capital for three or four years. What's the matter, brother Li just came back from the imperial capital, is there anything new?"

"Hey, that's not the case. What's new? With the sage in charge and the help of the national teacher, it's very safe!" The person surnamed Li took a sip of tea and picked up a few anecdotes to tell.

The two chatted back and forth, from the appearance of the ladies and ladies to the private obsessions of the princes and ministers, and even mixed in a few political affairs, and they talked so hard that Qin Nianjiu was sleepy and didn't hear them. Talk about things related to buying and selling people.

He stood close to Tan Fengyue, unable to make any big moves, he could only place his hands on his back, scratched him a few times, and asked him in a very sad voice, "Could it be a mistake... "

This ghost...!

Tan Fengyue's spine was numb from his scratching, and her ears were almost reddened by his breathing. She endured and endured so much that she didn't blow this troublesome ghost away, she just gritted her teeth very stiffly and said: "... …Get off."

"Why, is it possible that the ancestor is still ticklish?" Qin Nianjiu was used to being incomprehensible, not only was he oblivious to his discomfort, but also wantonly touched his back a few more times, "Eh?——"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Weishan in the room suddenly stood up, and said with a smile: "Look at me, I was so busy chatting, I almost forgot important things! No, I have found a batch of fresh goods in recent months, and I am still waiting in the warehouse Go through the water again."

"Fresh goods again?" The one surnamed Li stood up, "How is the quality?"

"Pretty good, pretty good, there are all kinds of them," Zhang Weishan smiled, and led him to the warehouse. "The worst ones can be sold in the courtyard!"
