I am not repairing cultural relics in the Forbidden City

When eating at noon, Xu Congcong watched Tao Xiu stare blankly while eating, and couldn't help but sighed, "Master Tao, what expression do you have? You encountered a ghost this morning!" Feeling uncomfortable all over, he suddenly raised his head when he heard it, and the piece of fat in his mouth was also thrown to the ground.

Xu Congcong: "..."

Embarrassed, Tao Xiu took out a napkin, wrapped up the piece of fat and threw it into the trash can.

"What's wrong with you?" Xu Congcong changed his worried expression, "Are you too tired recently?"

Tao Xiu didn't know what to say, so he could only shake his head. After thinking for a while, he felt that this was not very good, so he said, "It's nothing. When I repaired a watch in the morning, something was rusted inside. I'll think about it again." What should I use instead..." Before he finished speaking, Xu Congcong covered his ears and interrupted him, "Don't tell me about work while eating! And I don't understand what you're saying!" Tao Xiu had to shut up, feeling relieved. Take a breath.

After eating, Tao Xiu struggled a bit, but still packed a few steamed buns and some side dishes, Xu Congcong said in surprise, "Aren't you full?" Tao Xiu explained, "I'm afraid I'll be hungry in the afternoon."

"Okay." Xu Congcong didn't ask any more questions, waved at him, and turned to go to his yard.

Tao Xiu walked for a few minutes with a small bag through a bamboo grove, and arrived at his yard. He stood in front of the stone gate and looked at the closed door of his house, feeling a little conflicted in his heart.

As soon as the door was pushed open, Tao Xiu saw a certain figure squatting in the corner standing up abruptly. Now his whole body was no longer dark, but his whole body was like a clear shadow, and he could almost see through him. Seeing the stool behind him, Tao Xiu trembled uncontrollably, and walked over pretending to be calm.

"Are you hungry?" Tao Xiu tried to make his voice gentler, after all, he didn't know much about this "thing".

The figure stood there for a while, then walked forward hesitantly, and stared at Tao Xiu's steamed buns on the table for a long time, Tao Xiu saw a hint of disgust in his one-eyed, and said gently: "Not used to eating? "

Qintang coughed, and his voice was uncomfortable and hoarse: "Sir, you are worrying too much. Now that Qintang lives in someone else's house, there is no reason why you can't get used to it." As he said that, he was about to go forward to get it, but he stopped when he raised his hand Yes, Tao Xiu smiled knowingly, yes, one arm of this "thing" is completely gone, and the other hand is missing the palm, only one disabled arm, how to eat.

Tao Xiu took a step forward, picked up the white flour steamed bun, broke it apart, stuffed some pickles in the middle, the slightly yellowish juice stained the white flour in the middle, it didn't look pretty, but it smelled surprisingly good.After Tao Xiu finished, he brought the steamed buns to Qintang's mouth.

Qin Tang stared at the steamed bun by his mouth with one eye, as if he had made up his mind, he opened his mouth and bit it.

Then Tao Xiu watched Qintang's upper teeth collide with his lower teeth, making a rattling sound, his mouth penetrated the steamed buns and touched them together, Tao Xiu took the steamed buns back, and the steamed buns didn't move at all .

……

Qintang's eyes were a little puzzled at first, and then he seemed to understand something, suddenly became sad and angry, turned his head and ran to the corner where he had been squatting before, before Tao Xiu could say a word, he watched Qintang's figure slowly and transparently disappear.

……

Tao Xiu was a bit dumbfounded, it seemed that this "thing" really couldn't touch anything.

After a while, he tried to shout a few times, but he didn't see Qintang's figure. Tao Xiu reckoned that he should have disappeared temporarily, and then wondered if he felt ashamed so he hid, right?After thinking about it, I was shocked by my own thoughts, so I had to drive these messy thoughts out of my mind.

The work in the afternoon still had to continue, and Tao Xiu quickly started to concentrate on the repair work at hand, forgetting the thing that he didn't even eat.

Tao Xiu loves clocks from the bottom of his heart, and he is 100% meticulous in his work. When he raised his sore neck and took the time to look at the clock on the table, he realized that he had already left work for 10 minutes.He looked at the pocket watch with regret, and was going to see if it could be repaired a bit, so it seems that it can only be tomorrow.

It was getting dark outside, Tao Xiu tidied up, went to the door, turned off the lights and locked the door to go home, when he walked into the yard, he suddenly felt bright behind him, turned around and found that the lights in the room were not turned off, he thought and thought Not knowing if he forgot to turn off the light, he had to go back to open the door and turn off the light, but this time, before the door was locked, the light in the living room turned on with a "snap".

……

Tao Xiu thought it was amazing that he was so calm.

Lao Wang, who opened the door, happened to pass by the gate of the yard. Seeing that he was still here, he shouted, "Xiao Tao, remember to turn off the lights and lock the door! I won't be patrolling you tonight!"

……

Tao Xiu looked at the empty room, thought for a while, didn't know how to express himself, so he could only whisper, "I'm off work, turn off the lights, I'll be here tomorrow." After speaking, he stretched out his hand to turn off the lights, This time, he had just turned off the light, and before he took his hand off, he suddenly felt something cold penetrate his hand, and turned on the light again.

Tao Xiu didn't care to think why Qin Tang didn't want to show up, and didn't care to think why he could touch the switch again, but was worried about how to persuade this "ghost" to let him turn off the light.

Suddenly he saw the pocket watch hanging on his desk, his heart moved, he walked over to wrap the pocket watch in a handkerchief, carefully stuffed it into the backpack, and patted it symbolically, and said seriously: "I bring this pocket watch Let's go, okay?"

As if in response to his words, the lights in the room snapped and went out.
