Chapter 2 Junctions

Xiao Jun knew that they would come to him again, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

There is only one day left before what he promised Ning Yu.

It was still Ning Yu who opened the door that night, but Xiao Jun, who was playing games in the room, also opened the door and walked out just as he opened the door.

Outside the gate, two people, one short and one tall, one fat and one thin, one ugly and one handsome, one in black and one in white robe, looked at Xiao Jun through Ning Yu with embarrassing expressions.

Compared with Ning Yu's calmness, Xiao Jun's face is almost as cold as a scum.

He glanced at what Lao Xie was hiding in his sleeve. "Are you planning to come to me to snatch people?"

Lao Fan said flatteringly: "Xiao Jun, you also know how dare we come to you to make trouble. But, we are also doing business!"

Xiao Jun came over, stood in front of Ning Yu, and said to Lao Fan: "I know you are in a difficult situation. After tomorrow, I will send Ning Yu to your place. The day after tomorrow is the end of the month, so I can catch up with you."

Lao Xie said: "What's the difference between one day later and one day earlier? Xiao Jun, you don't belong to the Three Realms, and we can't control you, but don't take us too seriously!"

"Old Xie, don't say a few words!"

When Lao Fan yelled at him, Lao Xie choked up, gave Xiao Jun a hard look, and still shut up.

Lao Fan pondered for a moment.

"Xiao Jun, we have known each other since you were born. I also know your character, and you have always said what you say. It's not that I don't believe that you will send someone here in a day. But Lao Xie, it's like a pressure in my heart. One stone, I brought Ning Yu back one day earlier, and I was always thinking about it. You have to understand us. Besides, Ning Yu should not be a person who stays in this world. We also looked through his files before we came. Tomorrow It is the day of his reincarnation. If it delays the time, it will be a big deal! He has been a good person for several lifetimes in a row.

"You said—tomorrow?" Xiao Jun rarely had a surprised expression on his face.

Old Fan nodded. "I can't lie to you about this."

Xiao Jun looked back at Ning Yu again, just in time to meet his gaze.

"Or, I'll go with them." Ning Yu said.

"I promised you."

"I know." Ning Yu, who was supposed to be the most disappointed, comforted him instead, "Actually, you are willing to help me, and I am very grateful to you. They are also responsible. I can understand, so let me go with them."

Xiao Jun stared at him deeply.

"I told you, I promise you."

Xiao Jun turned around and closed the door, blocking Lao Fan and Lao Xie from the door.

I don't know what Xiao Jun did, but I could only hear Lao Xie's angry curses and Lao Fan's kind words to persuade, but they couldn't get in at all.

"You..." Ning Yu looked at Xiao Jun in surprise.

"Since I promised you seven days, I will definitely do it. With the abilities of the two of them, I can't take you away from me. Don't worry about the last day of tomorrow." Xiao Jun looked calm and said nothing at all. Ignoring what I had done, I turned around and walked towards the bedroom again.

"Thank you." Ning Yu said behind him.

Xiao Jun's footsteps froze. "You also helped me cook for so many days, there is nothing to thank."

With a bang, the door closed again.

Ning Yu didn't know what Xiao Jun did, but the next day, although Lao Fan and Lao Xie followed them all the way from the time they left the house, they couldn't get close to him.

It was like Ning Yu was surrounded by a hood, and Lao Fan and Lao Xie couldn't touch it.

"Oh, you kid... really..."

Lao Fan looked at a few steps away, and Lao Xie kept wandering around Ning Yu who was sitting by the window, but scratched his head and had nowhere to start. He shook his head and smiled wryly at Xiao Jun beside him, "Why do you do this, boy? A ghost. You don’t belong to the three realms. You are free and at ease. Why do you want to get involved with such a ghost who is about to reincarnate for no reason?”

"I'm willing." With a few stabs without mercy, the opponent's blood bar immediately bottomed out.In the game, the little character played by Xiao Jun continued to wander around the wild with his big name.

"You!" Even though he was as soft-tempered as Lao Fan, he was somewhat angry. "Xiao Jun, you have to think about it! This karma is not cabbage. If you buy it, you can eat it if you want to eat it, and throw it away if you don't eat it! Your karma is not small. He will definitely come to pay you back in the next life, and maybe even How many lives will you live! Don’t you ghost babies hate these worldly favors the most? Then why do you give him this karma?”

Xiao Jun played games wholeheartedly.

Old Fan: "..."

Lao Fan opened his mouth to say something, a hand suddenly passed through his body, reaching in front of Xiao Jun.

"Hey, Xiao Xiao, I'm playing games here again, hurry up, sister here has a form, you can help me type it out on your computer and copy it to me, I will use it right away!"

The aunt who called herself "sister" was eating melon seeds while handing over a piece of paper with ghost-like characters written on it.

"Oh." Xiao Jun kept a cold face. After minimizing the game window, he opened the word document and started editing the form.

Lao Fan looked at the situation, thought for a while, and dawdled to Ning Yu's side two meters away - this is the maximum range that can get close to Ning Yu.

Lao Fan pushed away Lao Xie, who was still baring his teeth and claws, and followed Ning Yu's gaze to look out the window.

It was drizzling and the weather was not good.

"How...how did you meet Xiao Jun?"

Ning Yu recalled, and said with a smile: "Xiao Jun picked me up on the road."

Lao Fan turned his eyes back to Ning Yu's face again, looked at it for a while, and suddenly asked: "Don't you hate it at all? When I saw you the last two times, I really didn't recognize you. The picture that Lao Xie gave me Your face is bloody and bloody, but your appearance after the car accident is pretty good among ghosts. But... I really didn't expect that you would..."

Lao Fan looked at Ning Yu again and again. "It's abnormal in my eyes that you look normal like this. You don't hate him at all for making you like this? Ordinarily, you should become a ghost."

Ning Yu glanced back at him, then turned to look out the window, smiled and said nothing.

Lao Fan said again: "Then since you have no hatred in your heart, why don't you go back with us. You must know that tonight is your reincarnation day. Your next reincarnation is about to begin, and the right and wrong of this reincarnation is just a passing cloud. You are not even attached to hate, so why are you obsessed with it?"

Ning Yu said: "Compared to hatred in this world, there are too many things worth clinging to. You are not human, and you don't understand."

Lao Fan said: "Although I am not a human being now, I have been a human being once, but it has been too long, and I have forgotten the feeling of being a human being. However, you people are really strange. Not only do you have so many hearts, spleens and stomachs, What's more, I, Lao Fan, don't even know what the use of these things are. Now even a ghost baby has been ripped out of love by you, which is considered an anecdote in the Three Realms."

Ning Yu hesitated. "Ghost baby...what the hell is it?"

Lao Fan glanced at him and said: "The so-called reincarnation of life and death is divided into six destinations according to the good and evil of all living beings, and the size of their blessings. They are also called the six realms. These six realms are the heavenly realm, the Asura realm, the human realm, and the animal realm. , Hungry Ghost Realm, Hell Realm. However, due to chance and coincidence, some things outside the six realms were born, and the ghost baby is one of them.

"This Xiao Jun was supposed to be born in a family of Zhongming and Dingshi, and was destined to be rich and powerful, but someone was jealous of his biological mother, and used some insidious methods to change his mother's natal chart, so that she was born in Xiao Jun's family. When he was about to be born, he died in the wilderness. However, Xiao Junming had noble people to help him. A military doctor who returned home to visit relatives passed by and found his mother’s body. He also happened to find that the fetus in her womb was not dead. The method of laparotomy saved him. Before he was born, the female corpse was completely dead, and it was an extremely dark thing. Xiao Jun should not have been alive, but at the moment he was about to die, someone saved him. So, Good luck made a man to give birth to such a ghost baby."

Ning Yu frowned slightly. "Since he's not dead, isn't he still a human?"

Old Fan laughed. "Indeed, a ghost baby is still a human being, so it is called a ghost baby instead of a baby ghost. However, it is not unusual for a person who should have died to still be alive in this world! To tell you the truth, like Xiao Jun In such a situation, even if he dies a hundred years later, we will not be able to detain him back to the Yamen of the Underworld, because there is no file on him there. According to the words of your world, he is a black household."

Ning Yu was thinking about something again, when a voice suddenly intervened.

"What are you talking to him about?" It turned out that it was Xiao Jun who came over.

Old Fan turned his head. "You brat don't care what I say!"

Xiao Jun didn't bother to glance at him, and said to Ning Yu: "It's time for my lunch break, let's go."

"Well, good." Ning Yu got up and followed him.

When Lao Fan and Lao Xie saw this scene, they scolded their mothers in their hearts, and hurriedly followed.

On this day, Dr. Cheng came to work normally.

Ning Yu sat in his old position, staring at Dr. Cheng who was busy in the consultation room, without blinking his eyes.

Next to him, Xiao Jun stared at him without blinking.

However, a few meters away, Lao Xie squatted and burst away, and Lao Fan stood impatiently.

"Is your death related to him?" Xiao Jun, who always sat beside him without saying a word every time he came to the hospital, asked suddenly today.

Ning Yu watched the man walk out of the consulting room with the mug he gave him, passed by in front of his eyes, and walked straight to the water room.

"how do you know?"

"He smells like blood. It smells like murder." Xiao Jun said coldly.

Ning Yu looked at the figure of the man going away, the back of the snow-white coat fluttered with his steady steps. "He didn't kill me, I died in a car accident."

Xiao Jun sneered. "The car accident was caused by him? His bloody body must have been stained with human life."

"No, it was just an accident." Ning Yu finally turned his head and glanced at him.

Xiao Jun met his gaze and suddenly asked, "Where do you want to be reborn in your next life?"

Ning Yu was a little surprised, and then said with a smile: "Where I think, I can go there?"

Xiao Jun said, "If they don't agree, I'll beat them up."

Ning Yu couldn't help laughing. "Forget it, I think it's pitiful enough for them to be bullied by you. Besides, it is said that the family I will reincarnate in in my next life is not bad."

Xiao Jun looked at him. "Do you want to reincarnate?"

Ning Yu pondered and said: "I don't know either. But isn't it said that people are like this, birth, old age, sickness and death, and then reincarnation. Although I don't have the memory of my previous life. What about you, do you want to be reincarnated?" Also stunned.

"Did you hear what Lao Fan said about me?"

Ning Yu glanced at him a little embarrassedly. "Um."

Ask a person who cannot be reincarnated if he wants to be reincarnated.He didn't know how he asked such a stupid question.

"I never thought about it before."

what about now?

Ning Yu didn't want to ask.After today's time, everything in this world has nothing to do with him, and he will forget everything.

After reincarnation, Ning Yu's former existence will be completely wiped out, just like a U disk being formatted.

Thinking about it, it makes people feel a little chilled.

"Let's go." Ning Yu stood up and said to Xiao Jun.

"Don't you read?" Xiao Jun glanced at the door just after fetching water, and walked back to Cheng Zhou who was sitting down.

Ning Yu smiled and shook his head. "There's no need to read it anymore. I'd better knock on the door with you, and then you get off work early, and I'll go back and cook for you."

Is it the last meal?

Xiao Jun thought.

"Ah."

The two left the hospital.

On this day, Xiao Jun, who always commutes to and from get off work on time, was gloriously late for the first time under the astonished eyes of all the aunts and sisters-in-law.

But one hour earlier after get off work, the usually crowded supermarket has only a few people, and it looks extremely spacious.Xiao Jun accompanied Ning Yu for a leisurely stroll and filled the shopping cart to the brim.

Of course, Xiao Jun was the one who paid the bill last.

"There are still three and a half hours before midnight." Lao Xie, who was following the two of them, looked at them coldly and said.

Xiao Jun turned a deaf ear and picked up the full bag and left.

Ning Yu smiled at Lao Xie and said, "Thank you for reminding me, Master Wuchang." Then he also followed.

Old Fan sighed beside him. "Old Xie, don't provoke Xiao Jun anymore. We can't do anything about this kid's temper. Besides, his character has always been trustworthy, and he will definitely hand over this Ning Yu to us before the hour What's the point of making him unhappy right now?"

Knowing that what Lao Fan said was reasonable, Lao Xie gave a cold snort bitterly, and followed the footsteps of the two of them floatingly.

The doors and windows were blocked by Xiao Jun, and Lao Xie and Lao Fan couldn't get close to each other. They had to stand outside the kitchen window on the fifth floor and look at the two inside.

Lao Xie looked at Xiao Jun with a strange face, helping Ning Yu in the kitchen without saying a word, picking vegetables and scraping the scales of fish.

"Old Fan, tell me——, would a baby ghost be moved by Hong Luan this day? I think Xiao Jun's attitude towards this ghost is not a normal thing?"

Old Fan gave him a blank look. "It's only now that you see that it's not a normal thing? I don't know how you got the title of the number one prodigal son of the underworld."

Lao Xie's face turned half black. "Is that the same thing as him? Since ancient times, yin and yang have been called harmony. This, this, this, this man and man, dividing peaches and breaking sleeves is against the laws of heaven and earth, and violates the principles of human ethics. How could I think of this all at once? Go! Didn’t you say that Ning Yu and Xiao Jun are friends or something. I’m surprised, there was no mention of any intersection between the two in the file before, so how did they become friends?”

Lao Fan's complexion also turned serious rarely, staring at the two people inside the window. "I've been in the yamen for so many years, and I've only seen three heavenly ghost infants, all of whom died alone, and ended up either self-destructing or dying. They don't belong to the six realms of reincarnation, and there will never be a Yuelao to arrange for them Marriage. It's just... God's will is unpredictable, and the fate of this ghost baby is not as ugly as I can say. And this Xiao Jun——, alas..."

inside the window.

Ning Yu watched Xiao Jun scrape fish scales on the chopping board with an unfamiliar knife technique, and couldn't help but speak again. "Let me do it."

Xiao Jun shook his head. "I come."

"This……"

Seeing that Ning Yu wanted to persuade him, Xiao Jun turned his head to look at him, and said bluntly: "The crime of killing fish is serious, you are a soul that is about to reincarnate now, it is better to accumulate some good fruits."

Ning Yu froze for a moment. "Huh? Is there something special about this?"

Xiao Jun nodded and continued to scrape the scales clumsily. "Killing is inherently sinful, and killing fish is the greatest sinful karma."

Ning Yu asked: "Why?"

After scraping one side, he turned the fish over. The fish hadn't been killed yet, and the pain of scraping the scales made it unable to resist struggling violently on the chopping board.Xiao Jun simply slapped the fish's brain with a knife, knocking it unconscious.

"Souls that have committed crimes in this world will be thrown into the animal realm. Only by constantly practicing and accumulating merit can they reenter the human realm. It is said that such souls have to undergo ten times of reincarnation before entering the human realm, and the last reincarnation is a fish As long as you go through the pain of scraping and caesarean section, you can be a human being and enjoy happiness in the next life. But the person who kills it kills a soul that is about to become a human being, and the crime is basically equivalent to killing people."

"Killing... Is the crime a lot?" Ning Yu asked thoughtfully.

Xiao Jun said lightly: "It depends on who is killed. If it is a person who has accumulated good deeds, he may be punished by heaven."

"What... is God's punishment?" Ning Yu stared at his side.

Xiao Jun shook his head. "I do not know then."

Ning Yu silently took the motionless fish cleaned by Xiao Jun, rinsed it slowly in the pool, and watched the light red blood pass through his slightly transparent fingers.

Xiao Jun glanced at him, walked out of the kitchen quietly, came to the small balcony next to the living room, and waved to the two people outside the small window of the kitchen next to him.

"Why?" Lao Xie stared at him vigilantly, as if he was afraid that he would go back on his word.

Xiao Jun didn't bother to glance at him, and looked directly at Lao Fan. "Ning Yu was killed by Cheng Zhou." He said with certainty.

With a "tsk" sound, Lao Fan scratched his head. "Only they know about this. But normally, it seems that Ning Yu died in a car accident. At that time, Cheng Zhou was in the same car with him, but he was only slightly injured."

Xiao Jun got the plausible answer from Lao Fan, and he was no longer interested in this matter, and asked again: "How did Ning Yu and that Cheng Zhou know each other?"

Lao Fan looked at him jokingly. "Why don't you ask Ning Yu yourself, and you still want to find out the enemy's situation from me, ha!" After being scratched by Xiao Jun's cold gaze, he quickly smiled. "Hey, seeing how determined you are to have karma with him, I knew you would come to ask me about him!"

After old Fan Chang sighed, he began to talk about Ning Yu.

"Ning Yu, my old fan has been imprisoned for thousands of years, and I rarely see such a weird person. I checked his files. Since the record, every reincarnation is not considered a great person, but it is also If you don’t do evil, you still accumulate a little goodness, so even if you have never been reincarnated into a rich and powerful family, but every time you are counted as a wealthy family, your life goes smoothly and you die. In this life, if you don’t have this evil relationship with Chengzhou , presumably also a full house of children and grandchildren, starting well and ending well. Good fortune tricks people~

"Speaking of it, he is actually the noble man that Cheng Zhou has chosen. In the New Year when he was eight years old, his parents took him back to his hometown to visit relatives and worship ancestors. One morning he had a whim and wanted his father to take him to the river to fly a kite. It happened that Cheng Zhou was picking up wild vegetables on the bank of the river. He accidentally rolled into the river and nearly drowned. So the father and son rescued him. In some places, there is a tradition in the countryside. , and recognized that benefactor as godfather. So Cheng Zhou recognized Ning Yu's father as godfather, and asked his father to give him a new name, and then called Cheng Zhou.

"At that time, it was really painful to recognize a son as a real son. In the second year, Ning Yu's parents took Cheng Zhou into the city to live with them. He really became brothers with Ning Yu, and then became the later Relationship. That's all I know, if you want to know anything else, you can only ask Ning Yu."

After listening to the story, Xiao Jun frowned, and now he had one thought: Why didn't Cheng Zhou drown in the river back then?

Probably his facial expression was too obvious in his mental activities. Old Fan gave him a glance: "I know what your kid is thinking now. But you have to know, without this, you and Ning Yu probably won't be able to fight each other."

"Those who have the truth but no husband, Yu Ye; those who have strengths but no roots, Zhou Ye..." Xiao Jun murmured suddenly.

Old Fan looked at him unexpectedly. "What are you kidding about?"

"'Whoever has truth but no husband is Yu Ye; whoever has strength but no foundation is Zhou Ye', what does this sentence mean?" Xiao Jun asked.

Lao Fan was very surprised now. "Where did you hear this sentence, kid? You don't always dislike reading, but you still know this sentence?" He turned his head and glanced at the sun that was gradually sinking on the horizon. "Is the sun going to set in the east today?"

Being stared at coldly by Xiao Jun, even a thousand-year-old ghost, the yin energy of becoming a baby ghost that day made his hair stand on end.The old Xie next to him was also like a cat whose fur had exploded, flying hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye.

Lao Fan said "haha" in embarrassment. "It's not an accident to me. This is a sentence in "Zhuangzi". It probably means that what does exist but has no specific location is space, and what has length but has no beginning and end is time. In fact, it is similar to Taoism. , The thoughts of the Three Lives and Myriad Things are similar, no one knows how wide this world is and how far eternity is!"

Does it exist, but no specific location?

Xiao Jun suddenly wanted to look back at Ning Yu. There is indeed no "person" in this world who knows the existence of "Ning Yu", and no one will know from now on, except him.

Xiao Jun raised the corners of his lips slightly, feeling a little joy in his heart, but it was like a feather gently scratching his heart, which made him want to hear Ning Yu say a few more words.

So he turned and left the balcony.

"Ning Yu, is there anything else I can do for you?"

Ning Yu turned around and smiled at him in the kitchen. "It's nothing, it's all ready to go to the pot, you can wait outside."

As soon as Lao Xie floated back, he was outside the balcony with a terrified expression, poking his neck out to look inside. "Old, old...Old Fan, did that kid just smile?"

Lao Fan was also terrified, his facial features almost shifted, but he still forcibly and calmly pulled Lao Xie's head back. "Cough! Just smiled, look at your virtue!"

Old Xie turned his head to stare at him, and waved his hands exaggeratedly. "But he is a Tiancheng ghost baby! Tiancheng ghost baby can laugh! He doesn't even recognize his own parents! You, have you seen him smile before?"

Lao Fan's facial features were distorted for a moment, and he choked out a word. "No."

Lao Xie suddenly looked at him with a mournful face. "Old Fan, do you think I can complete the mission safely tonight?"

Old Fan sighed. "You worry too much. It's not that Xiao Jun has no idea. He helped Ning Yu in this way and forged such a big karma. He is not only calculating Ning Yu's life, but the next life. Moreover, he also knows why Be good to Ning Yu. Is it true that Ning Yu has become a black household like him? Ning Yu is just an ordinary soul, and he is not a careless person like him. Even if we can't control it, the world has its own balance, and there is no room for him. The soul that should not exist will naturally disappear when the time comes. Unless he uses his own yin to support Ning Yu, but then Ning Yu will definitely fall into hell in the end, and he will no longer be Ning Yu. Therefore, he did not The only choice is to give Ning Yu to us."

After hearing what he said, Lao Xie was slightly relieved, but his eyes were still fixed on the two people inside.Until the end, Ning Yu followed them back, but he couldn't let go of his heart.

I saw two people in the room, one was eating, the other was watching, there was a strange sense of warmth in the silence.

Old Xie's face twisted again.

Suddenly Lao Fan's cell phone rang next to him, and he took it out to take a look, his face immediately became serious.

"Old Xie, I have received a temporary mission."

"What?" Lao Xie turned his head to look at him in surprise. "Suddenly there is a temporary mission again? Something happened to Heaven again?"

Old Fan nodded. "Well, it should be God's punishment, it will be at Xu time tonight (19~21 o'clock)."

"Then, that...then we went there, can we catch up here?"

Lao Fan said: "It might be a little more troublesome over there, I'll go. You're almost waiting here, so tell Xiao Jun to take Ning Yu back. Let's meet in the yamen at night."

Old Xie struggled a lot. "I really don't want to face that kid alone."

Old Fan laughed. "You, if you want to complete the task smoothly, you just need to say a few words. With Ning Yu here, Xiao Jun won't go too far. You can't solve the matter over there."

Lao Xie thought for a while, and only nodded.Lao Fan then left.

In the room, Ning Yu saw that Xiao Jun had finished eating and cleaned up, so he said to him, "I think it's almost time, so I'll go with them. It's not necessary to be an hour earlier or an hour later."

Xiao Jun looked at him and said, "You don't want to stay here for a while?"

Ning Yu avoided his gaze and shook his head.

He is tall and thin, but he doesn't feel weak when he stands up. Instead, he looks like a green pine tree, beautiful and straight, warm and firm.

"Thank you for your care these days, Xiao Jun."

After saying this, Ning Yu walked towards the balcony.

"Where's Lao Fan?" Ning Yu was slightly surprised looking at Lao Xie who was rolling around bored outside the balcony.

"He has received a temporary mission, and some people may be punished by heaven when the next day comes." Lao Xie rolled over again and said sullenly.

"God's punishment...?"

"Yeah! Tsk, there have been more and more scourges in the past few years. Now people~ We are so busy every day, and we have increased workload, damn it!" Lao Xie said angrily, not paying attention to Ning Yu who was next to him. Something is wrong.

"Old Xie, can you take me to have a look?"

Lao Xie was stunned for a moment, turned over and stood up and floated outside the railing in front of Ning Yu. "What are you looking at? Looking at the Scourge?"

"Well, I haven't seen it."

Lao Xie frowned puzzled. "What's so interesting about the scourge? But it's no big deal to take you to see it, and only a kind-hearted impermanence like me can satisfy your soul's strange request."

Lao Xie looked at Ning Yu, but he was the one who liked Ning Yu, if someone else came, hum!It's been a long time since I hit back to Yin Division.

Lao Xie single-handedly dragged Ning Yu out of the balcony. "Then let's go, go back early."

"Where are you going?" Xiao Jun's voice came suddenly.

Lao Xie gave Xiao Jun a blank look, and just opened his mouth to say something, but he closed his mouth again remembering what Lao Fan said.

Ning Yu in his hand said: "It's nothing, I want Lao Xie to show me the place where I lived before I died, and then go to the Yinsi Yamen."

"..." Lao Xie continued to remain silent.

"I'm leaving." Ning Yu smiled at Xiao Jun.

Xiao Jun stared at him silently for a while.

"Ah."

As soon as he heard his "hmm", Lao Xie immediately disappeared at a speed faster than the speed of light.

Xiao Jun was left alone, looking out of the empty balcony.

Downstairs, the noisy night market kicked off again, but there was no one around him who quietly watched the night scene with him.

Be patient, see you soon.Xiao Jun thought.

Then walked into the house.
