Gratitude License

Xu Liang dreamed about his parents.

When his parents had just left home that year, he always dreamed that his parents were talking to him, telling him not to worry.

In fact, he was not worried, he just missed them very much.

Later, Chang Jing told him that his parents were going to save the world, and they would come back when the world was peaceful. Xu Liang accepted this statement without any obstacles. Since then, the number of times he dreamed of the two of them has decreased a lot.

He is very sure that his parents are a pair of great heroes. Since they are going to save the world, he just needs to wait obediently. One day, his parents will wear a cape like a superman and step on the cycle of wind and fire. Come to reunite with his family and buy him a lot of nougat.

Perhaps because of the influence of the amulet, Xu Liang dreamed of them again.

The time was when I was ten years old, before my parents went out to "save the world".

Xu Liang was squatting in the corner teasing a kitten with dogtail grass, while his father Xu Ruosan and mother Jiang Yuan were talking in the study.

He couldn't understand or remember the meaning of the words, but he could always dream them completely, and it was the same this time.

Xu Ruosan said to Jiang Yuan: "I'm sorry, I want you to go out with me for an adventure."

Jiang Yuan smiled and held his hand, "Is it stupid to say such things."

Xu Ruosan sighed.

Jiang Yuan: "Since I'm married to you, I will share weal and woe with you. I have already prepared myself psychologically, and Liangliang is just not growing up now. In fact, there is nothing wrong with continuing like this. From the time he was born, I have treated him with respect. I don't have any requirements, I just hope that he can live a healthy and happy life, in fact, he is living a happier life than other children of the same age... And we will definitely find a way to cure him when we go out this time."

Xu Ruosan: "Actually, I also know that there is little hope, but we have to do our best to listen to the destiny. After we come back, no matter what the result is, we will stay with Liangliang well."

After a moment of silence, Xu Ruosan looked at Xu Liang, "After the accident, I have always regretted it. In fact, I knew about the curse a long time ago, but when I was young, my parents didn't want to talk about it, and I didn't ask too much. This kind of thing is too illusory, but he didn't expect it to come true when he was only five years old, and it would be too late to confirm with his parents at that time.

As I said before, the boys in the Xu family are always troubled by disasters, some children are prone to illness, and some are prone to injury, but I have always been doing well, so I always thought that my son would also be doing well, but I didn't expect..."

Jiang Yuan touched Xu Ruosan's head and comforted him: "It is a deep fate to be a father and son. Liangliang is destined to be our son, and we are also destined to do our best for him. Why do you think about things that cannot be avoided? Just do it with a clear conscience. good."

Xu Ruosan responded with a smile, like Jiang Yuan comforting him, went over and gently stroked Xu Liang's hair, "Liangliang, Mom and Dad are going out for a while..."

Xu Liang nodded while listening to his parents' instructions, and finally his parents came over with a smile and kissed him on the left and right cheeks.

Just like when I was a child, both sides made two sounds of "bajibaji" at the same time.

When the train whistled, Xu Liang opened his eyes in a daze, rubbing his palms on his face, feeling a little happy to see his parents in his dream, but at the same time a little disappointed.

Sweeping his gaze across the carriage, when Xu Liang saw Chang Jing, that bit of disappointment suddenly disappeared, leaving only happiness.

He didn't even lift the quilt properly, and dragged it to Chang Jing's bed.

The morning light shone through the curtains on Chang Jing's face, and her complexion was like toffee mixed with honey.

Xu Liang smiled so much that he rolled his eyes, leaned forward and kissed Chang Jing's face.

Like mom and dad kissing him.

Chang Jing woke up, was stunned for a moment when he saw Xu Liang, and then pushed him out.

Xu Liang fell to the ground with a groan, rubbed his butt, smiled and pointed to his face, meaning that I kissed you, so you kiss me too.

Chang Jing stared at Xu Liang for a while, shook his head, and stretched out his hand to pull him up, "It's almost time to stop, you go wash up first, get off the car later and take you to eat delicious food."

Xu Liang still pointed to his face, looking at Chang Jing with sparkling eyes.

Chang Jing: "..."

In the past, he would have kissed without hesitation, after all Shaliang was just a child, but now...

As long as he combined the verb kiss with Xu Liang's face, he would think of certain images, and then he thought that if the non-stupid one saw this, he would definitely make a very embarrassed expression at him.

Chang Jing pushed Xu Liang out of the carriage, "Don't make trouble, go wash up."

"Oh...then I'll wash my face before I kiss you."

After the two left the carriage, Xiao Shisan ran onto the table holding a mobile phone as tall as himself, and looked out the window excitedly.

The speed of the car is getting slower and slower, and it will arrive in Nanjing in a few minutes.

He conjured up a human form and quickly tapped on the screen.

Xiao Shisan loves Brother Xu the most: [Picture] Arrived in Nanjing~(≧▽≦)/~Seeking for face-to-face

Jinling Little Flying Squirrel: Baby Thirteen, aren't you following Brother Xu?

Xiao Shisan loves brother Xu the most: yes, yes, brother Xu is coming to Nanjing too!Of course there is Brother Chang, but I am still so afraid of him!

Jinling Little Flying Squirrel:! ! ! !

After 30 seconds, the "Jiangsu-Shanghai No. 3 Group of the Mutual Aid Federation of Repaying Gratitude" exploded.

Ten minutes later, Xu Liang and Chang Jing got out of the car.

Fairies living near the station came one after another, approached the two at the risk of having their ID revoked, and took a group photo with different types of counterfeit mobile phones.

Half an hour later, Xu Liang and Chang Jing were sitting in the shop eating beef pot stickers and duck blood vermicelli. The goblins had already received news from the gossip tabloids.

The headline reads—Brother Xu has arrived in Nanjing!

Immediately afterwards, the hottest topic on Yaobo became:

#Xu Gege Visits Jinling#

#许哥长哥长哥南京翁走#

#Can you repay your kindness across provinces#

#Is the Yaozu household registration policy reasonable?#

Chang Jing gave Xu Liang the last potsticker, and checked Moments for a while, feeling that the atmosphere was a little off.

Those classmates and colleagues in the demon-subduing circle seem to have collectively changed their style of painting, one or two are either posting babies or pets, and if they don’t have these two, they are posting clothes and food.

Chang Jing clicked on Liao Yang along a small hemp map, and sent a question mark.

Liao Yang replied with eight words: be wise and protect yourself, but seek no faults.

Chang Jing frowned. Ever since Huanhai's accident, he felt that the painting style of the whole circle had changed.

The most intuitive feeling is to ask for leave by myself. In the past, there was always a lot of trouble, but this time it went very smoothly. The team leader didn't even ask him to write a leave note. He just said that it should not exceed one month, and he would make it up when he came back.

Judging from this detail alone, the attitude of the higher authorities towards the children of the aristocratic family seems to have warmed up.

No wonder, in the past, all the birds used to hide their bows, but now that the cage is broken, and a few big birds have escaped, it is natural to draw the bows and arrows back.

Of the four major families in the past, only three of them are still able to sustain the scene.

The Chang family in the capital, the Lin family in the demon capital, and the Cai family in the demon capital.

In addition, the Liu family in Shenzhen, the Bai family in Chengdu, and the Meng family in Nanjing can be named, but their qualifications are still too young.

The Jingdao family specializes in dealing with goblins. It can be said that the degree of recognition of goblins directly determines their status.

Goblins live long lives, and human families don't have a thousand-year-old inheritance, so they can't remember you at all.

In addition to the fact that the Chang family's Taoism skills are slightly better than the others, the most important point is that the inheritance time is long enough.

In Chang Junyang's words, practicing Taoism is not as good as having children.

Every time I think of this, Chang Jing is quite speechless.

The vermicelli soup was eaten clean, not even the bottom was left.

Chang Jing: "Are you full?"

Xu Liang: "I'm full, but I still want to eat..."

Chang Jing went out and bought a large cone for Xu Liang, and called Meng Changze.

"Hello, Uncle Meng. I'm Chang Si'an. I'm here. Thank you. Everything is going well. I want to meet you first. Is the park okay?"

He called himself Chang Si'an, and made an appointment to meet in the park, so that there would be a place to accommodate Xu Liang, and secondly, it would not be too formal.

After all, his current identity is Chang Jing. If he went directly to the Meng family to find someone, it would be equivalent to contacting the Meng family on behalf of the Chang family. To personally go out to meet...

It's troublesome if you think about it, it's better to make an appointment to meet secretly.

He had already prepared his speech, but he didn't expect Meng Changze to ask, "How much do you know about Huanhai?"

△

Meng Changze was nearly forty years old, and he looked like a soldier in an inch-cut leather jacket. Although he had an innocent smile, his face was still slightly ferocious. When Xu Liang saw him, he took half a step back.

Children are best at judging people by their appearance, and Xu Liang, a big kid, is no exception.

Meng Changze looked at Xu Liang and smiled meaningfully.

"I asked for leave on the day when Huanhai's accident happened, so I shouldn't know more than you." Chang Jing rubbed Xu Liang's head, "Does Uncle Meng remember him? We grew up together, so maybe we should invite you too. Help him take a look."

"Remember, this is the child of the Xu family. I met him when I went to your house that year, and you always ran around with him...There are chairs over there, let's sit down and talk, we can't speak clearly. "

The stone table for enjoying the shade was equipped with four round stools, Xu Liang followed Chang Jing over like a tail, and sat beside him.

Chang Jing didn't mean to shy away from Xu Liang, but Meng Changze took out a piece of red money and said to Xu Liang, "Son, uncle is thirsty, please help me buy a bottle of water."

Chang Jing understood what Meng Changze meant, thought for a while, and then gave Xu Liang her wallet, "Go ahead, buy a bottle of water for this uncle, and buy myself a popsicle, not many, just one."

After Xu Liang turned around, he heard Chang Jing say, "He's not sensible, so there's no need to dismiss him."

Meng Changze replied: "Some things, the less outsiders know, the better."

Changjing's wallet is dark brown, made of cowhide, without any decoration on the surface, generous and simple, which is in line with the aesthetics of young people today, but Xu Liang doesn't like such monotonous things.

On the way to the cold drink shop, he purposely took a detour to pick up a leaf in the ginkgo forest.

Countless small fans were spread out on a layer of gold and yellow. Xu Liang had some difficulty in choosing, and he didn't know which one to choose.

He squatted on the ground, holding the wallet in one hand, and put the leaves on the wallet with the other, trying to find the best one.

In Xu Liang's mind, Changjing is the prettiest, and of course the things he uses are also the prettiest, and the leaves he chooses must also be the prettiest.

Maybe in the eyes of others, the leaves and flowers of the same species look the same, but Xu Liang doesn't think that the flowers given to Chang Jing are also selected one by one in this way.

When he was struggling, someone squatted down in front of him, pawing all over the ground like him, picking leaves.

Xu Liang first saw a pair of small hands with freckles, and then saw their owners.

"Huh..." He stared at the silly hair on the boy's head, feeling familiar.

"Brother Xu, hehe." Little Shisan raised his small face and shook the leaf in his hand towards Xu Liang, "You...look, is this good?"

Xu Liang stared at Xiao Shisan's face for a while, then suddenly asked, "Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Xiao Shisan nodded vigorously, and the flesh on his cheeks swayed.

Xu Liang's eyes were a little dull, and many images jumped in his mind, for a while it was moon cakes, for a while it was popcorn, for a while it was Chang Jing squatting on the grass talking to him, and there were also talking hamsters and big green snakes...

"Brother Xu, I, I found another leaf." Xiao Shisan held up a leaf.

Xu Liang came back to his senses, "This is not pornographic enough."

"Oh oh oh! Good! What about this one?"

"too big."

"It's small!"

"This is not like a fan."

"This image!"

"This one was bitten by a bug."

……

"What about this, Brother Xu?"

"It's dirty."

"This, this, Brother Xu, do you think this is okay?"

"This...huh? You..." Xu Liang realized that, unknowingly, there were seven or eight more children around him, and the one with the hairy head was squeezed to the back instead.

Xiao Shisan entered the "encirclement" again, blinking hard at a group of children.

"Did sand get in? I'll show you." Xu Liang pulled Xiao Shisan over, held his face in his hands, lowered his head little by little, "Huh—"

Xiao Shisan's lips trembled, his chin trembled, his whole body trembled, his round face turned red like a tomato.

At this time, the other children said in unison: "Brother Xu, I also have sand in my eyes!"

Xu Liang: "Ah, okay, who will come first?"

Children at the same time: "Me me me!"

Xiao Shisan: "You...don't, hey! In case Brother Chang sees it..."

A group of children were all transformed by local goblins, and they didn't listen to Xiao Shisan at all because they were local snakes, and they scrambled to turn their little faces towards Xu Liang.

When Xu Liang reached the third blow, he suddenly felt a numbness in his neck, and before he could hum, he felt his eyes go dark.

Dusk caught Xu Liang, punched the little demon who was blocking the way, rushed to the river with Xu Liang in his arms, and jumped down.

When Xu Liang woke up, he first smelled the fishy smell of aquatic plants.

If you give him a mirror now, he will definitely be frightened by himself. There is a layer of water plants hanging on his head, and his face is black with river mud. Scary white.

"Finally woke up." Dusk walked to Xu Liang's side and looked down at him.

The light was very dim, Xu Liang could not see clearly but could hear, "Are you, a magician?"

The weather was very cool, but at dusk, there was a layer of sweat on his face, and he was a little out of breath even when he spoke.

He suddenly knelt down towards Xu Liang and saluted respectfully.

Xu Liang was stunned, he just opened his eyes wider.

Dusk's voice trembled, "I'm dying, I beg brother Xu to save me."

"Me?" Xu Liang pointed at himself, "I, I, I can't... You, die... Ah! Don't die!"

"I haven't repaid him yet. I don't want to die. I beg my brother to save me. Afterwards, I can be at your disposal." Dusk said, touching his head to the ground sincerely, and slammed his head firmly.

If it was someone else, he would have to help him up first when he was kowtowed like this, but Xu Liang didn't understand, he was only worried that Dusk would smash his head, so he hurriedly put his hands on the ground as a buffer.

He "I, I, I" couldn't make a sentence for a long time. In fact, he just wanted to ask, how can I help you?

Dusk: "Brother, please promise, you are a demon doctor, you can definitely save me."

"Okay, okay." In short, it's right to agree first.

Dusk finally raised his head, with tears in his eyes, "Brother Xu, I, I'm so scared... I've lived for more than 600 years, and I think I can live for a long time... Today, I just know, I know I'm going to die... That The seal of the bottle, as long as I escape, I will die, Brother Xu, you humans are too scary."

He exposed his arms to Xu Liang, his fair skin was covered with green rot.

Xu Liang smelled a stench, like rotten water plants. He knew that the person in front of him needed help, but he didn't know what he could do.

At this moment, there was a muffled sound behind him, followed by several "clicks", as if something was broken.

Xu Liang turned his head, only to realize that he was in a strange place, surrounded by a translucent shell, in the darkness, only the shell exuded a warm orange light, like a sunset.

There is a familiar figure behind the sunset.

Xu Liang stood up excitedly, "Be quiet!"

At the same time, the shell shattered completely, and Dusk screamed.

"Silly Liang! Are you alright?" Chang Jing held the Jing Talisman in his hand, followed by Yue Zhuo and Xiao Shisan.

Xu Liang nodded vigorously, "It's okay, but the magician is going to die, what should I do!"

Chang Jing didn't speak, Xu Liang pulled him to look at the dusk, but he didn't see anyone.

There was a small goldfish lying on the ground, its body was covered with green rot, its mouth was open, it exhaled with great difficulty, and said in a weak voice: "Brother Xu, remember, you promised, save me... "

Chang Jing also heard it, but pretended not to hear it, glanced at Xiao Yu, and took the Jing Talisman away.

"Silly, let's go."

Xu Liang looked around, as if looking for something.

"What are you looking for?"

"Bottle, the little goldfish is going to die!"

"Let's go, we can't save him."

"No, no, anyway, bottle bottle bottle..." Xu Liang understood that the little goldfish was transformed by a magician, and it was wandering around, refusing to leave for life or death.

Chang Jing had no choice but to take out the bottle that once sealed Dusk and put him in it.

Xu Liang: "He said that I am a demon doctor and asked me to save him, but I don't know how to do it. Quiet, please save him."

Chang Jing paused, "Demon doctor?"
