Shopkeeper and God

The tissue was taken aback for a moment before taking it, and said with a twisted voice: "Thank you".

Baochen looked at Lu Xing wiping his hands with a distorted face, and looked at the long gown that he hadn't changed when he went out, and said, "Be careful, it's too embarrassing to get food on your clothes."

Lu Xing said "Oh", wiped his hands clean, and ate two more mouthfuls of ice cream, but he seemed to have become better. After sitting for a while, he smiled and said, "My lord, you are like your parents."

"Huh?" Baochen didn't quite understand what Lu Xing meant.

"Hey, don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand." Lu Xing ate the ice cream, but did not look at Baochen, "I don't have the concept of parents in my memory, and I can't even recall how Master treated me. One Just being an orphan, when I was in elementary school, I always said that I was like a mother and a father, and I didn’t quite understand what it felt like, but probably ‘parents’ means someone who cares about you and can protect you.”

Lu Xing paused for a moment, then laughed again, and said, "It seems difficult to understand. If you don't understand, my lord, just pretend that I haven't said anything." Lu Xing silently ate the rest of the meal. Only ice cream.But Baochen was still looking at him, his eyes flickering, as if he wanted to blurt out some emotions, but he gave up several times.The two of them were silent for a long while before they heard Lu Xing speak again, but this time they changed the subject very abruptly.

"Have you heard about Yunjin International?" Lu Xing rolled up the eaten ice cream stick and toilet paper.

"Is it about the villa area?" In the past few months, Baochen has generally learned a lot about the affairs of this city, so it doesn't seem ignorant when Lu Xing asks.Lu Xing nodded and said, "Three people have already died."

Yunjin International is a villa area near the mountainous area on the outskirts of the city. Its selling point is the beautiful environment close to the mountain. Naturally, the housing prices have also risen. Those who can buy villas there will naturally earn less.Only in the last half month, three people died in the villa area one after another.The first one died in the cellar dug by himself. It is said that when he went down to get things, the cellar door was closed somehow. By the time people found out, this person had already lost his breath.

The second one is a decoration worker. Originally, the height of the villa on the second floor was not high, but when the worker fell from the roof, he happened to overturn the scaffolding.A metal rod passed through his head, killing him instantly.

Two homicides occurred in half a month. Although both were accidents, the developer and the property owner were also quite worried, so they invited a respectable old monk from the temple on the mountain to take a look at Feng Shui.The old monk came and walked around the villa area, and his face was sour. He said that there is something under this place, and two more people need to die to be safe.When the developer and property management heard this, their faces turned green with fright, and they hurriedly asked the old monk to solve it.The old monk originally said that the secrets of heaven cannot be broken, but he couldn't stand the soft and hard paws on both sides, so he had to say that he did his best.Unexpectedly, the third person who died was this old monk.

The explanation from the developer and the property owner was: the old monk went into a house that had not yet been occupied by the owner the night before and chanted sutras. When he went to find him the next morning, he found that the old monk was out of breath.The developer and the property owner were frightened to death, but the explanation given by the hospital was that the old monk was old and his body functions failed, so he died naturally.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a coincidence, but there seems to be some weird and unspeakable things hidden in this "coincidence", which makes people break out in a cold sweat when they think about it carefully.And precisely because of the sudden death of the old monk, the events of Yunjin International in the past half month spread quickly.Coupled with all kinds of third-rate reports that add oil and vinegar, monsters and ghosts, this incident can be regarded as well-known in the city, and all kinds of rumors are also spread so magically that it sounds ridiculous.

As Qi Xie, who deals with monsters, naturally he will not ignore such things.As a human, Lu Xing couldn't see through the fog of this matter, but as a god, Bao Chen had a different view.Baochen knew that Lu Xing was only curious at best, and he would not meddle in his own business if he had not received the entrustment, so he smiled lightly and said, "The secret is unbreakable, you'd better not understand the superfluous things, so as not to go to Follow in the footsteps of that old monk."

After being told by Bao Chen, Lu Xing finally looked at him and said, "That thing is powerful?"

Baochen said: "That thing even dares to kill an old monk with such high morals, so what are you? Can you guarantee that you are stronger than the old monk?"

When Bao Chen said this, Lu Xing twisted all over his body, his face changed a few times, and finally suppressed his voice and said, "What do you mean? You who work here have taught me a lesson?"

"Yes, yes, my lord, it's my fault for saying the wrong thing." Hearing Lu Xing's questioning, Baochen immediately lowered his posture, and was so soft that he choked so quickly that Lu Xing had nothing to say.Looking at Lu Xing's appearance, Baochen couldn't help but feel happy, but he also knew that if he provoked him, he would definitely end up with no fruit, so he just planned to coax him and go back.However, before he could speak, a black shadow appeared in front of the two of them, and then a cheerful and respectful voice asked, "Excuse me, are you the owner of Qi Xie?"

Lu Xing was just annoyed by Bao Chen, but when he heard this, he probably knew the identity of the person who came, so he couldn't help but look up.I saw the young man standing in front of the two, about [-] years old, although he was wearing a sportswear, his heroic and upright spirit was unstoppable.He was also carrying a slender sports bag on his shoulders, which seemed to be less than one meter long, but it was heavy as if it contained something important.

Lu Xing looked at him, and just now straightened his sitting position, and said, "I'm the owner of Qixie, Lu Xing, who are you?"

The young man's face was filled with joy, he couldn't help but wanted to salute with his fists in the palm of his hand, halfway through the movement, he stopped awkwardly as if remembering something, he could only bow slightly, and said: "I'm going down to heaven, Hong Yu, the Dragon Clan, I have something to do this time. I also hope that the shop owner can help me with this."

Under the seal (2)

"You really don't know how powerful the dragon clan that has eaten people is? With your body, you will run out of energy even if you use a little magic, so how can you deal with her? Besides, even though you are sealed here, you are still a member of the heaven. People, even me, the gods on this earth, are not sure that I can deal with them... Are you listening to me?"

Ever since Lu Xing took over Hong Yu's commission, Bao Chen's face has changed.Probably because of his face outside, he didn't talk to Lu Xing all the way back, but as soon as the two of them entered the store, Baochen started talking.It's just that he was anxious in his heart, but Lu Xing didn't seem to think so, and there was even a leisurely smile on his face, Baochen's anger inevitably became stronger.

However, Lu Xing just put the shopping bag in his hand and the sports bag less than a meter long - exactly what Hong Yu gave him - on the table, and even laughed aloud when he saw Bao Chen's appearance. He poured himself a cup of tea and said, "Do you really think that the people from the heavens can do anything when they are on the ground? Hong Yu just said that since it is already a matter on the ground, it is best to use the solution on the ground. My lord Do you really underestimate me? Do you think I can’t do this? Then don’t I ruin Qi Xie’s reputation?” Lu Xing drank tea and sat down on a chair. The smile on his face was so confident that Baochen even felt A trance of uncertainty came.And when this trance hadn't dissipated, there was a calm knock on the door, and before Lu Xing even said "Please come in", the person who knocked pushed the door and walked in.

The person who came was a girl in her late thirties, with a tall and handsome figure, her long hair tied neatly, wearing a slender Taoist robe, carrying a silver sword on her back, and a capable and heroic look on her face. It turns out that he is not a man in the world of mortals.She looked at Lu Xing, who was sitting, and Baochen, who was looking serious, and clasped her fists together, and said, "I'm in Tianting, Su Xin, who disturbed me without authorization, and I hope the owner will forgive me." After speaking, she spoke to Lu Xing crisply I saluted.

Although he had doubts about the identity of the visitor, Baochen knew that it was inconvenient for him to stay longer, so he took the shopping bag and went to the kitchen to tidy up.Lu Xing watched him enter the kitchen with a smile on his face, and turned his eyes to look at the girl who called herself "Su Xin" when the door was closed. She straightened the hem of her long gown and said, "The girl is really nice." With sharp eyesight, you can tell at a glance that the shopkeeper here is me."

"That's natural." Su Xin showed a natural expression, "There are rumors in the world that Qixie is a place for monsters, but the owner is human. I am afraid that the only person who can sit in that position is you, the owner." Su Xin flattery without affectation.After Lu Xing heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud, and said, "Since the girl is so clear, why don't you get straight to the point. What does the girl want to entrust me to do?"

Seeing that Lu Xing was so forthright, Su Xin took two steps forward with satisfaction, and asked, "Then, does the owner know what happened in the villa area at the foot of the mountain in the past half month?"

Lu Xing leaned his back on the back of the chair, with a smile on his mouth, but his eyes flickered, and he said after a while, "Of course I know. Three people died there, and one of them was a respectable old monk. This The news has spread all over the city, so could it have reached the ears of the people in the heavenly court?"

Lu Xing had something in his words, and Su Xin could naturally hear what he meant, but she just shook her head helplessly, and said, "It's no wonder that the shopkeeper, who is a human being, can't see the strangeness in this. To be honest, 400 Years ago, under that villa area, the people of my heavenly court sealed a man-eating dragon there. Now that human activities have loosened the seal, the deaths of those three people are not coincidences. They were all made by the dragon to break the seal swallowed food
