Huaxi's obsession (1)

Baochen was dreaming again.

It was a dream so far away that it faded, and every scene and object in the dream were as ambiguous as old photos.Figures who couldn't see the real and the false were swaying in front of his eyes, and voices that couldn't tell the distance were floating in his ears.Bao Chen wanted to reach out and grab something, but his fingertips were as cold as touching clouds.

"...When I become a god one day, I will promise you a peaceful and prosperous world."

Every time Baochen uttered a sentence that he wanted to keep something and wanted to prove, Baochen felt his heart was filled with a tearing sadness, it was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.And on the other side of the dream, the person who was so blurred that he couldn't see his face clearly seemed to be pulling a bitter smile, and the voice came from a distance, saying: "But you are a god, and I am an ordinary person, how can we be together?" One room?"

Usually by this time, the dream will wake up.

It is the same today.

It was early summer, and the morning sun was not too hot, and it came in softly from the latticed windows.The leaves on a pomegranate tree outside the window were still brand new, and a few sparrows were chirping on the branches for a while.Baochen squinted his eyes and looked at the twitching branches outside the window, as if he heard something downstairs, he simply got up.

He was wearing a Chinese-style pajamas that were shorter than the length of the wrist and ankle, and the slippers were also a size too small, but he didn't seem to care.When the smoke from the kitchen downstairs was slowly wafting away, Bao Chen also just finished washing and went downstairs.

In addition to the smell of breakfast downstairs, there is also the smell of incense that belongs to the offering.A man half a head shorter than Baochen, wearing a finely embroidered gown, was lighting incense skillfully, twisting it in his hand and bowing three times to the tablet on the altar table, before digging into the incense burner respectfully.Burning incense rises like a pillar, and the pitch-black tablet is written with white paint "The seat of Zeng Shanqiang, the owner of Qixie".

The so-called "Qi Harmony" is the name of this store.Whether the store is big or not, it is not small.The traditional Chinese-style small second-floor structure, with people living upstairs and receiving guests downstairs, is in a four-in-one style with a small patio.Classical is classical, but it does not match the atmosphere of this modern city.However, whether it suits the appetite of modern people, the shopkeepers of the past dynasties seem to have never considered this issue.After the former owner of the shop—it was Zeng Shanqiang on the tablet—passed away, the shop was left to his apprentice Lu Xing, who was also the one who offered incense to Zeng Shanqiang.

However, Qi Xie said it was a shop, but basically did not do business.To be precise, it does not do business with humans, but only accepts commissions from spirits and ghosts.Rumor has it that since Qi Xie opened his shop in the prehistoric era, all successive shopkeepers have been Bai Xiaosheng, but the rules are close to the people. Therefore, from the gods of the land and mountains to the spirits and monsters, they can accept all entrustments.However, in such a shop, the owners of all generations are human beings.It seems that it is precisely because of the need to carry the "weight" of such a store with flesh and blood, when they become store owners, they will hand over their previous memories to "Qixie", so as to obtain the rights necessary for inheritance, and in this way The direct result is that the shopkeepers of all dynasties are not long-lived people.

Lu Xing said that Master never lived past the age of 41, and Lu Xing is 28 this year.According to Qi Xie's shop records, the shortest-lived shopkeeper was only 32 years old, and the longest-lived shopkeeper did not live to reach fifty.

Baochen has only been in the store for a month, and he knows that Lu Xing is a person who likes to laugh, even when he says such things.

So how long can Lu Xing live?

Baochen has never seriously thought about this issue, and since he came here, the relationship between them is nothing more than the relationship between "owner" and "employee".It's just that this kind of relationship, if put in front of monsters, I'm afraid it will be a big joke.

How could the majestic mountain god condescend to be a wage earner for a human being?

Similarly, Baochen didn't care whether this matter has become the laughing stock of the world's spirits and monsters.However, he was standing there now, but he heard Lu Xing sigh half mockingly half helplessly.

"Breakfast is ready, don't you know how to eat by yourself?" Lu Xing's voice was a little soft, but with inner strength.Baochen came back to his senses, only then did he notice that on the table behind him were two sets of bowls and chopsticks, a pot of millet porridge, some white steamed buns and tea eggs, boiled and broken corn, a few small pieces of salt Dried fish, plus a plate of small pickles.It looks the same as before, except for those pieces of dried salted fish.

Baochen looked over all the food on the table before he said lightly: "You know it too, God doesn't..."

"Naturally, the high gods don't understand that it's shameful to waste food." Lu Xing interrupted, and Bao Chen fell silent.Lu Xing hadn't looked at him all morning, but now he interrupted and glanced at him. With a smile on his lips, he shouted upstairs, "Chen Yiguang! If you don't come down for breakfast, don't go to school!"

Immediately there was the sound of a child screaming upstairs, accompanied by a commotion like demolition of a house, a child about ten years old rushed down the stairs, holding a schoolbag in one hand and a red scarf in the other, staring at it with rounded eyes. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit delicate, the two adults sat down at the dining table, threw away the things in their hands, and went to grab buns to eat.

"Have you washed your hands yet! How many times have I told you not to pack your schoolbag in the morning and you just don't listen? Did you bring your textbooks? Did you bring your homework?" Lu Xing took the red scarf thrown by Chen Yiguang and tied it for him While talking like an old lady.Chen Yi was so busy eating and answering Lu Xing's question that he was choked up and almost spit.

This Chen Yiguang is Lu Xing's apprentice. He is only 12 years old and still in elementary school.Lu Xing said that he was still too young, except for the rules in the shop, he hadn't been taught anything to learn.As for how Chen Yiguang came to the store, Lu Xing shook his head and said he didn't remember.Chen Yiguang himself said that he was adopted by the shop owner, and that he was Lu Xing's younger brother in the account book, but he was still used to calling Lu Xing "Master".Baochen felt that Lu Xing did not seem like a liar, so maybe Lu Xing also handed over the memory of Chen Yiguang's origin to "Qi Xie".

But seeing how Lu Xing treated Chen Yiguang as both a father and a mother, even if Lu Xing no longer had that memory, it didn't affect the relationship between the two of them.

After finishing tying the red scarf on Chen Yiguang, Lu Xing turned his head and saw Bao Chen was still standing there, couldn't help but frowned, and said, "Didn't I ask you to come and eat?"

Bao Chen looked at the two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, and asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"I've eaten it." Lu Xing filled two bowls of porridge, gave one to Chen Yiguang, and pushed the other to Baochen.Baochen knew that today's "Hongmen Banquet" couldn't be avoided, and he felt that Lu Xing had no good intentions, but he held back his smile, pulled up his chair, and sat down to eat porridge.

Lu Xing watched him start to eat, and gave him another piece of fish.

Chen Yiguang was holding a bowl of "Su Liu Su Liu" and drank half a bowl of millet porridge. He couldn't help but raised his head and said, "Why is Master treating Uncle Baochen so well today? I heard Master say yesterday that Sister Tian Luo, who lives in Huaxi Bridge, will take care of him." Come eat, when will Sister Tianluo come?"

Baochen ate half a piece of fish, looked up at the half-smile expression on Lu Xing's face, and asked, "Over there at Huaxi Bridge, do you have any entrustment?"

"It was said that a man committed suicide by jumping into the river at Huaxi Bridge half a month ago. The ghosts lingered under the bridge, and the spirits in the river couldn't bear it anymore, so they found me and asked her to come. I asked her to send some delicious food. Come here, I will accept this commission. No matter how you think about it, it is just a dead spirit, you will send Yiguang to school later and just pass by and get rid of it." Lu Xing waved his hand, his attitude was obviously casual.But Bao Chen completely sensed that something was wrong, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and asked, "Why am I going?"

"I ate everything the girl sent, why don't you go? Or is it that the majestic lord can't even deal with a dead soul?" Lu Xing pointed to Baochen's remaining half piece of fish.

Baochen had nothing to say, but Chen Yiguang yelled, "I also ate the fish, and I want to share with you too."
