Chapter 16
The cold-looking but subtly cowardly young man bit his straw expressionlessly, peeked at Qin Xi, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
Qin Xi also knew that he seemed to have made a mistake again. He arched his back and held the milk tea cup with both hands, biting the straw and looking innocently at Xuan Ye.
Xuan Ye and him looked at each other for a long time, and finally smiled: "Forget it, forget it, I'm not angry with you."
"Really?" Qin Xi suddenly became happy: "Then you must not be aggressive!"
"Okay. Not fierce." Xuan Ye rubbed him, then calmly turned to look at the other two: "What's going on, let's talk about it."
Zhong Xiangshen glanced at Qin Xi in surprise, and then said: "The entrustment registered by the ancestor of the owner of the house in the underworld seems to be the heir of the mysterious art line in the past, and it has always been a benevolent home after the family's handicraft has disappeared. That old man The wife is holding a job in the underworld, and she begged for face. The fox demon was sealed by their ancestors and has been under the house. It has not been changed for so many years. As a result, the seal has been broken in recent years and was The monster ran out, and in the first two years, it could rely on the blood of the family to suppress the fox demon from running around. Who knew that there was only one girl in this generation, and no one suppressed it after marriage, so the fox demon also had fun. The girl's husband's family was killed, and she has been luring passers-by to her door in recent days."
After a pause, Zhong Xiangshen continued to whisper: "I just happen to be looking into the affairs of a few victims recently. I saw this entrustment and got to know it. It's all related, so I brought Senior Brother Gu Yuan together..."
Xuan Ye breathed out: "Forget about the two-star ghost entrustment, Gu Yuan has this ability. But Zhong Xiangshen, use your rusty brain, two-star demon entrustment, how many lives will you two lose? Just this once, If I find out next time, it won't be as simple as being punished!"
"I promise! There will never be a next time!" Zhong Xiangshen swore solemnly.
"Okay, go back to the headquarters and have a look at your face." Xuan Ye rolled his eyes at him, then turned to look at Qin Xi: "What about you? What's going on?"
Qin Xi whispered: "Wait here when you find the evil spirit of blood, then... go and have a look."
Xuan Ye poked his forehead with his finger: "You dare to break in without knowing anything, what if you can't beat it? Reckless, do you still want me to let you out?"
"I think..." Qin Xi said pitifully, "I was wrong, there will be no next time. But! That fox demon is not powerful at all, I killed it!"
"You're still proud, aren't you?" Xuan Ye laughed angrily: "Okay, you too, just this time, don't let me know the second time." After finishing speaking, he knocked on the table, "Let's get to know each other, This is Qin Xi, a new colleague. These two, Gu Yuan and Zhong Xiangshen, are both old employees of the office. Gu Yuan is the descendant of the mysterious art family, and Zhong Xiangshen is his younger brother."
Zhong Xiangshen silently covered his face.
Every time someone said that he was Gu Yuan's junior, he always felt an inexplicable sense of shame.Brothers who are several years younger than me...
"Hello." Qin Xi greeted with a smile.
"Hello, hello." Zhong Xiangshen smiled prettily, with a quarter of his face rotten, which was very unsightly.
Gu Yuan just nodded slightly, still silent, but his expression was obviously gentle.
Qin Xi looked at Zhong Xiangshen, pointed to his face: "Your face..."
"Oh, it's okay." Zhong Xiangshen touched the edge of the scar: "The evil spirit has eroded, and I will find the guys in the medical department of the headquarters to treat it later."
"What is the medical department?" Qin Xi was curious.
Xuan Ye embraced him very naturally and casually, and said, "A group of ginseng, snow lotus and other messy things have become monsters. They have no other skills. They have learned hundreds of thousands of years to cure diseases and save lives. It is not a big deal if a monster is eroded."
"Hundreds of thousands of ginseng... can become a demon?" Qin Xi was a little surprised.Why did he feel that in his impression, the thousand-year-old ginseng snow lotus can only be a good tonic, and its greatest effect is only to hang life and detoxify, so how can it become a demon?
Xuan Ye chuckled lightly: "It's not an ordinary thing to take advantage of the luck and get the opportunity. Naturally, you can open your spiritual consciousness and become a demon."
Oh, yes, those who can become demons are not limited to species, but depend on good fortune.
"That... Excuse me..."
The four people sitting around the table turned their heads to look at Qi Lele. They felt a little embarrassed, but they still mustered up their courage to look at Zhong Xiangshen and said, "Excuse me...what's your name?"
Zhong Xiangshen was a little dazed: "Zhong...Zhong Xiangshen?"
Hearing this, Gu Yuan looked carefully at Qi Lele, then at Zhong Xiangshen again, and said for the first time, "He was adopted by my father, and he was sold by human traffickers when he was five or six years old."
Zhong Xiangshen looked at him inexplicably.What are you bringing this up for?
Unexpectedly, Qi Lele immediately became excited, her face was red with tears in her eyes, she held Zhong Xiangshen's hand tremblingly and asked, "You...do you have a red birthmark like a copper coin on your chest?"
"Yes... yes..." Zhong Xiangshen vaguely guessed something, but didn't dare to ask more rashly, looking at the excited Qi Lele in a daze.
Qi Lele broke down and cried out, "Xiao Xiao!—"
Gu Yuan got up and pulled a stool to sit down, and gave the seat to Qi Lele who was crying bitterly while clutching Zhong Xiangshen. The four people at the table looked at the girl crying with agitation and breakdown.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Qi Lele finally calmed down, took a few sips of the warm water Zhong Xiangshen handed her.When she recovered completely, she smiled apologetically at them with red eyes: "Yes... I'm sorry, I'm a little excited. But..." She looked at Zhong Xiangshen: "You are really my brother! The five-year-old I was taken away at the old train station in Kyoto in [-]. After that, my parents searched for more than ten years but couldn't find it, and they are still talking about it to this day!"
Zhong Xiangshen was in a daze, and said blankly: "But I...don't even remember..."
"Indeed." Gu Yuan took a sip of milk tea and swallowed, and continued: "You two are related."
Gu Banxian's opening is basically the same, and there is Xuan Ye beside him, so you can tell at a glance whether it is true or not.That is to say, at the beginning, everyone was thinking about other things and didn't pay attention to these things.
Qi Lele didn't know why, but after these people affirmed it, she completely let go of her hesitation, which was more at ease than an appraisal.
"You were stupid when you were young. You couldn't remember anything. You only knew how to eat, drink and play. You didn't know how to cry when you were carried away. It took a long time after your parents sent your uncle to the car to find that you were gone..." Said, Qi Lele's eyes were red, and she shed tears again: "My parents have been guilty of this for so many years. In recent years, my health has become worse and worse. I don't have the energy to look for you anymore. When I was seriously ill, I went to the hospital and kept talking about it... ..."
Zhong Xiangshen was infected by her, and couldn't help but have red eyes.Enduring it, he took a breath and looked at Gu Yuan: "I finally know why you lost your temper with your sister." After speaking, he hugged Qi Lele into his arms and patted her, letting her cry in his arms .
Gu Yuan shrugged his shoulders and made no statement.
The onlookers Qin Xi chewed on the pearls and sighed: "It's really..."
Xuan Ye laughed when he heard the words: "What? What did you see?"
"Before she talked to me, I noticed a little bit, but I didn't say much because I wasn't sure." Qin Xi smirked: "I really guessed it."
Xuan Ye raised his eyebrows: "You still count this?"
"It's not calculated." Qin Xi shook his head, "I seem to be able to read a little about facial features."
"Well, very good." Xuan Ye nodded: "If you want to learn more, you can ask Gu Yuan, he is proficient in this."
Gu Yuan nodded, and turned the corner of his mouth slightly towards Qin Xi.
Qin Xi's eyes lit up: "Then what else do you know? Do you know how to cast spells in your mysterious art family? Can you make utensils?"
"...will..." Gu Yuan said, "You are better than me, so you don't need to learn spells."
"But it looks fun." Qin Xi said happily, "I watch TV and they draw talismans to catch ghosts, and they can even bite their fingers in the air! It seems very powerful!"
"..." Gu Yuan choked up, his face darkened, and said, "The TV is unreliable, it's made up. Void symbols need to be drawn with essence and blood, which consumes a lot of energy."
Qin Xi collapsed listlessly: "Is that so... I thought I could draw easily."
Seeing the interaction between the two of them, Xuan Ye chuckled, rubbed Qin Xi's head and looked at Gu Yuan: "You two are about the same age, and you usually play with Qin Xi. He doesn't know much about the outside world, you teach him Point. I don’t worry if I leave it to you to take it with me.”
Gu Yuan looked at him silently, and finally nodded.
Boss, have you misunderstood something? I am a ghost hunter, not a kindergarten teacher!Also, what does it mean to be about the same age?Do you count this life or everything?
"In a while, I will arrange for Qin Xi to go to your school, and you two will be companions." Xuan Ye ignored him and gave the order directly.
Prodigy of mystical arts, master of ghost hunting, best friend of Hades, and ancient half-immortal of Jianghu also need to go to school.He is still a freshman who finished the college entrance examination last year and just entered his freshman year this year.
Xuan Ye hadn't thought of this at first, but just happened to see Gu Yuan remembering it, and it happened that the two of them knew each other, so they went along with it.
On the other end, when the siblings finally finished crying, Xuan Ye knocked on the table and said, "Zhong Xiangshen, take this lady for an appraisal later. If there is no problem, then go back with me to see the old man, and follow up with him if necessary." Gu Yuan said, if you are on vacation, submit the application yourself, and I will greet Sheng Sheng."
Zhong Xiangshen wiped his face and nodded: "Thank you, boss."
"Okay, let's close the shop with this lady and go back to rest early. I'll take Qin Xi away first. Gu Yuan, go to the back to see if the logistics people have finished processing."
Seeing the two leave, Qi Lele rubbed his eyes and asked Zhong Xiangshen: "Xiao Xiao, what do you do? That gentleman and that kid seem to be very complicated."
"I don't know about that kid. But that gentleman...it's really not easy. I'll tell you about this later, and I'll take you home first. You still stay in the store at this late hour, and you can't do this in the future... ..."
The voice spread far to the ears of the two people who walked out of the store, Qin Xi was pulled by Xuan Ye, and said with a smile: "It's nice to have relatives..."
"Envy?" Xuan Ye looked sideways at him.
"Not really." Qin Xi shook his head: "I just think it's really good. With someone to accompany, I can still say what I want to say, I won't be lonely, and I won't be ignorant of where to go..."
Xuan Ye's heart softened: "Little heartless, did I treat you badly or what?"
"No!" Qin Xi smiled and climbed his shoulders, but it was really uncomfortable after a long time, and finally gave up, and could only jump around with his arms in his arms: "Xuan Ye is the best! Xuan Ye is a good man! The best and the best in the world Good good man! No, good demon!"
"It's enough to have a sweet mouth? You have a nice voice, and I'll take you home with a voice."
"what is it call?"
"Brother?"
"not called!"
"Little heartless! Do you want to scream!"
"Hey...don't bark! Slightly slightly!"
The author has something to say:
After a long time, Gu Yuan learned about Qin Xi's life experience as a melon-eating crowd: I'm sorry to say that I think highly of myself when I'm about the same age, and I can't afford to offend him
Not long after, Xuan Ye remembered the matter of asking Qin Xi to call him brother, and tried his best to let the other party call him once.
So Qin Xiaoxi called my good brother all night that night
【I always feel like I drove a night hearse emmmmm】
