The new skin on Bai Yang's body was peeled off hastily. Although he "worn" it on the bones, he still didn't get used to it, and his limbs were a bit stiff when he moved.

He glanced at the woman in black from the mirror, and said arrogantly: "Don't worry, I haven't forgotten what I promised you, and I will do what you wish."

The woman in black was still silent, but she bowed deeply to Bai Yang, "Thank you, master", and then exited the room, walked around the narrow corridor, and pushed open the door of her own room.

The house is spotless, the beds, tables and cabinets are neatly tidied up, the bed curtains are embroidered with wisteria and grapes, and there are a few small red and yellow flowers in the vase in front of the mirror.

These flowers originally bloomed in the corner of the wall, but she picked them and placed them in the house.

There was a red coffin lying under the bed, and the woman in black lifted the gauze cap and dragged the coffin out from under the bed.

Instead of opening the coffin lid immediately, she stood in front of the mirror, took off her black robe, and changed into a paper cheongsam with floral patterns on a white background.

Only then did he turn around and open the lid of the coffin, half kneeling on the ground, staring at the bottom of the coffin, and smiling lightly.

What was placed in the coffin could not be regarded as a human being at all, it was like a mass of burnt blackened scorched earth, spelling out a human shape in the coffin.

The woman poked her head into the coffin, and kissed her lover with empty lips. She obeyed Bai Yang's orders. After being a ghost for so long, it was finally time for this day.

Bai Zhun sat in front of the lamp and finely ground the bamboo bone, and sharpened the bamboo bone to make a sword.

Huo Zhenye stretched out his long legs, leaning against the door, his hair scattered on his forehead, the light illuminated half of his body, he looked at Bai Zhun and asked with a smile, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"

He has been busy in the room all day.

Bai Zhun suddenly raised his head, only to realize that it was already dark and the lights in the room were turned on at some point.

He didn't feel hungry at all, so he thought for a while and said, "Longevity noodles."

Bai Zhun is a person with a strong appetite. Although he doesn't eat much, he loves to eat and enjoy himself. Huo Zhenye had already prepared for him to report a long list of dishes, but he didn't expect him to eat longevity noodles.

"It's the kind you cooked for me on my birthday."

Huo Zhenye smiled, a handful of dried noodles, two small green vegetables, a poached egg, and a few drops of sesame oil.

The two of them have experienced too many things. On Bai Zhun's last birthday, he cooked noodles for Bai Zhun, which seemed to be a long time ago.

"Do you really want to eat this?" Huo Zhenye asked, his hands already rolling up his sleeves, "It's fine, and there's also the chicken soup that Mama Liu sent. I'll make you a bowl of chicken noodle soup."

Bai Zhun gave him a sideways glance, he smiled and went to the kitchen, lit the stove to boil water, cooked noodles and fried eggs, the whole set of actions was smooth and smooth.

Huo Zhenye was quite proud, Bai Zhun with such a tricky mouth was well supported by him, who would have thought that in just half a year, his cooking skills would improve so much.

Returning to the room with the noodle bowl in hand, while watching Bai Zhun eating the noodles, he asked him, "Have you ever thought about leaving Shanghai?"

Bai Zhun picked up a piece of thin noodles. He remembered to add salt to today's bowl, and the taste was just right.

"how?"

"My elder brother wants to send his wife and daughter to Hong Kong." The current situation is getting more and more chaotic, the Japanese are becoming more arrogant, and their wolf ambitions are clearly revealed.

Only a few days later, many houses on Xiafei Road were vacant, and most of them went to Hong Kong.

Huo Chaozong's situation was even more dangerous. He was surrounded by all kinds of spies, and now the only one he could trust was Huo Zhenye.

I sent my wife and daughter to Hong Kong, and I only said that I went to Hong Kong for vacation. The winter in Shanghai is wet and cold, and the climate in Hong Kong is suitable. Many people go on vacation to recuperate.

With Huo Zhenye following him, Huo Chaozong felt more at ease when he bought a house to exchange favors.

"I asked Hong Sihai to buy a house. It's on the middle of the mountain. You can see the sea from the balcony. The weather over there is warmer and better for your body."

"Ah Sheng's troupe has already taken the stage in Kowloon, and we can still go to support A Sheng." Ah Sheng's troupe still relied on Hong Sihai to move up and down to occupy a place.

The eight sects fell apart, but those who could help still took care of each other. Ah Sheng even asked Hong Sihai to write a letter to tell Huo Zhenye that everything was fine with them.

Huo Zhenye also contributed a sum of money, which was for the theater troupe to settle down. Even if he was a shareholder of the theater troupe, even the Starlight Film Company would go to Hong Kong to open a branch office, and when he got there, he could make Bai Zhun live like he is now.

He is Bai Zhun and thinks long-term.

Seeing that he was talking excitedly, Bai Zhun didn't answer a word, just lowered his head and drank two mouthfuls of noodle soup.

Huo Zhenye asked: "What? You don't want to?"

Bai Zhun put down his bamboo chopsticks and pressed the corner of his mouth with a silk handkerchief: "There is no City God Temple in Hong Kong."

The local city god enshrines the righteous god and has been established for more than [-] years. If you leave this place and change to another place, Qimen will have nothing to do, and the fragrance of life will not grow any longer.

Huo Zhenye was stunned: "Then... what if we build one?"

Bai Zhun just looked at him and didn't speak. How could a newly built temple compare to a century-old temple.

"Then when the matter is over, I'll send my sister-in-law to Hong Kong, make arrangements for them, and come back to accompany you." Huo Zhenye saw that Bai Zhun opened his mouth, and immediately raised his hand to stop him, "Don't talk."

Unexpectedly, Bai Zhun really stopped talking this time, picked up the last few noodles with his chopsticks, ate them slowly, put the soup bowl away, and went back to the house to make paper figurines.

It was rare for Huo Zhenye to be treated like this, he was stunned for a moment, he didn't know how to make Bai Zhun obedient.

Turning around and seeing Zhizha Zhang Fei standing by the table, Huo Zhenye asked Zhifei, "How did I do it just now?"

You have to remember, you have to deal with him like this next time.

Zhang Fei made of paper has a dark face, only the eye wheel is white, he shook his head as a matter of course, it is a paper figurine, how could he know?

The author has something to say: Hong Kong only had the Town God's Temple in seven years
