"Master Lu, you have a ruddy complexion, a healthy tongue, and a stable pulse. It doesn't look like you are ill."

Dr. Li examined Lu Yiming for a long time, stroked his goatee and said.

Lu Yiming frowned, doubtful: "But last night, I was in unbearable pain. First, it was as if my heart was grabbed by a hand, and it almost took my heart out! Then my whole body hurt like being pricked by needles. Half a day. Do you have this kind of disease?"

After that, I fell asleep for a whole day and night, and just woke up just now, it seemed that it was almost time for dinner.

Although there is no abnormality in his body for the time being, he is still not at ease, so he specially came to the medical center to have a look.

"If it's some rare and intractable disease, I can't see it for a while, given your asymptomatic appearance. I can't prescribe you random medicine, right?" Dr. Li shook his head, "I'm really worried... ...It's getting late now, you can ask Sister Chen to cook you some tranquilizing medicine when you go back, and go to the county hospital tomorrow for another checkup according to the method of foreign doctors."

"Okay." Lu Yiming sighed softly, and lightly supported the gauze on his eyes, "It's been two days here, can you...?"

"No. Three days is three days. Can't you wait for three days? You don't even need to take care of your own body?" Dr. Li said with a look of resentment, "When your father was alive, he entrusted me, Let me help you a lot..."

"...Hey, I got it. You old man, please let me go. I just came to see a doctor. Why did you pull my father out of the coffin again? Yiming will definitely thank you for your great kindness. Keep it in mind." Lu Yiming pursed his lips helplessly and smiled.

This Dr. Li used to be a doctor in Lu Ji Medicine Shop, and he had a deep friendship with Lu Yiming's father, but then the Lu family sent all the doctors out for some reason, and Doctor Li used his savings to open a small medical clinic.

Dr. Li's clinic is small, and the types of medicinal materials are not complete, but Dr. Li's superb medical skills are well-known, and there are many customers. Sometimes when he prescribes prescriptions with rare medicinal materials, he recommends patients to come to Luji to get medicines, because his prescriptions are not for him. I, and only Sister Chen can understand.Usually, they don't charge any consultation fees for the Lu family's medical treatment, which can be regarded as a lot of help to the Lu family.

"Humph, good advice is harsh and good medicine is bitter, you can figure it out!" After saying that, the old man turned around, ordered the clerk to pack up and get ready to close, and then asked a little clerk to take Lu Yiming home.

After all, this young master Lu can't see the light now, which makes people feel uneasy.

"No, I can walk home. Thank you very much." After leaving the Liji Medical Center, Lu Yiming sent the boy back with a smile, "...don't be afraid, I just walked here by myself."

Strange to say, although he can't see now, he can walk in the town without any effort, which alley is in front of him, and whether there is a wall on the right... He knows all about it.Maybe it's because I'm too familiar with this town, it's hard to go wrong.

Yesterday, relying only on a cane, he was able to walk slowly and safely from home to the embankment without falling.

Besides, today he not only has a cane, but also a baby.

Right now, Lu Yiming hasn't eaten for a day, and his stomach is rumbling with hunger.

When I woke up, there was no one in the house, and there was no leftover food.

Unhurriedly pinching the "Jinling Local Chronicles" in his arms, Lu Yiming said in a low voice: "If someone is about to bump into you later, please remember to tell me." He paused, "You help me for a few days first, In the future, I will also try to help you fix the book."

The book demon Gao Leng said: "...Well, that's okay."

Leaning on crutches, Lu Yiming walked slowly towards the familiar night market.

The road around here is between Lu's house and the pharmacy.He has walked through each one countless times since he was a child, and he knows where the bricks are loose and where half of the wall bricks are missing.

There are a little few people on the road today, and occasionally someone hurried past, with the sound of the soles of their shoes rubbing against the bricks and stones on the ground.

From the medical hall, go right to the fork, take the one on the right, and then walk three forks, and you will arrive at the night market.

Thinking of He Ji's wontons, Lao Huang's pot roast... Lu Yiming's throat itched, and he swallowed for a long time.

right, right, left...

Huh?

Lu Yiming hesitated and slowed down, feeling something was wrong.

——I have been walking for a long time, but I have not encountered the third fork.

Take care...it's too late.

I'm afraid I went wrong.

Sure enough, it was inconvenient to be blind, he frowned, wishing he could pull off the gauze from his eyes so that he could see the road clearly.

He patted the book demon: "Which street is this now?"

The book demon was silent for a while, and muttered: "I don't usually walk, how do I know?"

Really useless.

Lu Yiming disliked it in his heart, pricked up his ears, and never heard anyone passing by, so he could only lean on crutches and continue walking forward.

The further you go, the quieter the road becomes.

The rustling of the grass blades on the side of the road, the sound of falling leaves hitting the bricks and stones in front, and the barking of dogs from an unknown courtyard in the distance, all made Lu Yiming inexplicably irritable and palpitating in his heart. Consciously holding his breath, his steps became slower and slower.

This is also lunch time, people have just finished work and hurried home, so the road can't be so quiet.

...It was uncomfortably quiet.

Turning a corner, just as he was hesitating whether to turn his head back, suddenly, someone yelled not far away: "Shortbread! Just out of the pan!"

Ahead, there began to be some human voices.

The strong aroma of food wafted over faintly.

The night market is here.

Lu Yiming's eyebrows twitched, and he let out a long sigh of relief and smiled: It really is here!

I guess I accidentally took a path that I don't usually walk just now, and I got around it.

I was startled in vain.

Following the sound and aroma, he turned around several walls and walked slowly into the night market.

Soon, just turning a corner, there was a lot of voices and shoulders rubbing shoulders in an instant.

No one would notice a blind man under the dim light, Lu Yiming took his time to look for food in the crowd.

On the left is the spicy smell of spicy soup, on the right is the smell of roasted rabbit meat, and further ahead is full of all kinds of strange aromas. You can't smell anything good. I feel that the night market tonight is more fragrant than usual.

Someone on the left tugged him: "Guest, would you like a bowl of spicy soup? We have added a lot of good ingredients, so you will be satisfied."

Lu Yiming pursed his lips and shook his head.

Malatang?

If you come to eat with Wen Yuan, that's okay, after all, that guy doesn't like anything but spicy food.

If you are alone, then thank you Bumin, his voice is unbearable.

I don't know how Wen Yuan's investigation has been going on in the past two days?Tomorrow, I can talk to him about Chen Jinzhi.

After walking two more steps, someone grabbed his sleeve again: "Guest, let's have some fried rice noodles, my fried noodles are very good."

Lu Yiming still shook his head.

A delicate woman on the right patted him on the shoulder: "Why don't you try my sugar-fried chestnuts? Eat one and you'll be happy all day long."

What is there to be happy about eating a candied chestnut?It's not something rare.

Lu Yiming continued to purse his lips and shook his head, secretly surprised: I didn't get such gossiping treatment when I came to the night market before, what's the matter today?Business is hard to do. Let's grab customers together?Or do you think it is easier to do business with the blind?

Next comes powder soup, glutinous rice cakes, bean porridge, spring rolls...

After rejecting the solicitations of several stalls in a row, he walked to an intersection, and there was a faint fragrance from the side.

Lu Yiming raised his voice and asked, "Boss, what are you selling?"

A middle-aged woman's warm voice sounded: "We sell clove wontons. A bowl of them can relieve your worries."

"..."

Lu Yiming couldn't help but laugh, this ad was made, no matter if it's cloves or magnolia, isn't it just a bowl of wontons, it can relieve your worries!

But right now I'm very hungry, and I've been craving wontons recently, and I didn't care about those details, so I said, "Then have a bowl."

Not long after, a bowl of clove-flavored wontons was steamingly placed in front of Lu Yiming.

The smell whetted the appetite. Lu Yiming touched the spoon and took a sip of the soup. The fragrance overflowed, and the warm soup passed his throat, and the fragrance still lingered between his teeth and cheeks.

He touched his pocket, pinched a few copper coins, and asked, "How much?"

"No money, as long as you give a 'good' word." The proprietress said.

"..." Lu Yiming raised his brows and asked strangely, "Miss Boss, did you just open today?"

"That's not it." The proprietress laughed, "I'm looking forward to a good fortune, as long as the first customer gives the word 'good', this year's fortune will be complete."

"..." Lu Yiming sat up straight, and said slowly, "What word?"

The proprietress is still smiling: "Just one word 'good'. Hello girl."

Lu Yiming opened his mouth, feeling that the air was much quieter at this moment, he could almost feel the earnest eyes of the proprietress falling on his lips passionately.

It was too hot, which made him very uncomfortable.

"Oh," he cleared his throat twice, and opened his lips to form the word "good", but before he could pronounce the whole word, he closed his mouth, with the corners of his mouth raised, and changed the topic, " Ma'am, what's the material for your ravioli?"

The proprietress said earnestly: "What else can you eat, you won't regret it after eating it. How much you want, how much you have, no money! As long as you say yes."

"Really?" Lu Yiming reached out to pick up the wontons in the bowl with a spoon, as if preparing to eat a big piece.

In fact, there were a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead.

He's not stupid, how could he not see something wrong?

——This proprietress, she must be drugged to rob.

No, it's not like robbery.It would be better if it was robbed, at worst, I would give her all the copper coins on her body.If it's not robbery, then...

She kept making herself say 'yes', but what was she trying to figure out?

I just took a sip of soup, I don't know if it's in the way.

Now this bowl of delicious wonton is in front of him, he is obviously very hungry, but he can hardly finish his mouth.

——Eating is not, and not eating is not.

In the midst of the embarrassment, the hustle and bustle around suddenly quietened down strangely, and a burst of light footsteps came from behind.

Accompanied by the sound of footsteps, a very familiar, pure and magnetic voice said word by word: "Pack him up."

It was the first time for Lu Yiming to find his voice so beautiful.

The proprietress's voice trembled twice: "...Hey!"

On the way back, the sound of footsteps ahead has been unhurried.

Compared with his usual walking speed, it was extremely slow, as if he was deliberately waiting for the people behind to catch up.

Lu Yiming was silent for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Why are you here?"

Seeing that there was no response, he raised his eyebrows: "Are you following me secretly?"

After a pause, he deliberately said: "Tsk tsk tsk, what does it look like?"

In fact, he originally wanted to say "running after bones like a dog all day long", but before he could say anything, he realized: Then wouldn't he be a bone?Hastily changed his mouth.

Kim Poro changed the subject: "Do you know what would happen if you said 'good' just now?"

Lu Yiming pretended to be nonchalant: "Just do what you like, at worst, let her be robbed."

He does want to know.

But if he really asked "What will happen?", Kim Poro would definitely tease him deliberately.

His family, Ah Jin, has always been so wicked.

Jin Poluo laughed, and said in a calm manner: "Your bowl of wontons is the contract written by her. If you say 'good', then you will form a contract with her."

...a contract?What contract?

Lu Yiming was extremely curious, but he still made a casual tone: "If you make a contract, you're done, so what if you make a contract."

"The contract is concluded," Kim Poro's voice came faintly from the front, "she is yours."

"Heh, it's good to be brave, one word for one person, it's worth it." Lu Yiming teased.

Kim Poro sneered: "Who told you that it was a person?"

Lu Yiming's eyelids twitched: "What is that? Two people?"

——or...a ghost?

Kim Poro didn't answer his question, instead, he approached him suddenly, and his voice rang out with strong mockery: "Instead of making a pact with such an ugly monster with ulterior motives, why don't you make a pact with me?"

...You don't have ulterior motives anymore?

What does it mean to end a contract?

Lu Yiming didn't have time to think about it, the scorching breath hit the side of his face, he couldn't help but take a step back, accidentally stepped in the air, and almost fell down.

The wrist was tightly grasped by the big hand stretched out from the right, stabilizing his body for him.

"..." As soon as Lu Yiming stood firm, he was led forward, "Hey, I'll go by myself. Let go." He shook his hands, but he didn't let go.

"You're too slow." Kimporo said coldly.

Lu Yiming was half amused and half impatient: "If you think it's too late, you can go back by yourself first, I want to go slowly."

As soon as the voice fell, the hand was let go.

There was a sudden silence around.

The cold wind blew through his clothes, and he was a little flustered for a while: running so fast?

... dead animals.

Just as he cursed this sentence in his heart, Kim Poro's contemptuous voice sounded from a step ahead: "Are you afraid?"

His footsteps sounded again, still light and slow.

Lu Yiming followed up bravely, and asked as he walked, "What the hell was that just now?"

Kim Poro said lazily, each word after word: "Guess."

"I don't want to guess."

"what ever."

"Can't you speak well?"

"I'm not human."

"If you want to speak well, I will..."

"……what?"

A triumphant laugh sounded: "Guess."

……

The two figures slowly disappeared at the end of the alley while whispering.

In the alley, countless eyes were shining with a strange light in the dark, looking at the two figures from behind.

There was a rustling sound of gnashing of teeth.

—Damn it, it was almost there.

--hateful!

--what a pity.
