The two looked at each other eye to eye in the setting sun, and the sun fell into the man's dark eyes, which were full of heavy gold.He still had a calm look on his face, as if he had just said something ordinary like "today's weather is fine".

This guy wasn't mocking him on purpose, Qi Yin was convinced that this guy might have some brain problems.

"I won't mention marriage anymore." Qi Yin said.

Fulan's eyes showed doubts.

"Didn't you see? She just kissed her boss," Qi Yin said helplessly, "She has already married her boss as an aunt."

Fu Lan looked at the pharmacy, the old owner was sitting at the counter to settle the accounts, nodding her tongue with her index finger, flipping through the ledger side by side, with blue veins stretching across the back of her bony hands.

This is an old mortal, his spirit is gradually declining, and he will soon enter reincarnation.

"Her husband is very weak," Fu Lan said indifferently, "he can be robbed."

Qi Yin was startled, and looked at the man in astonishment.That guy still looked at him quietly, his big eyes were evenly black, like a piece of clear glass.Qi Yin suddenly found that his eyes had never changed. Humans, animals, plants and trees all looked the same in his eyes, as if everything was the same.

Qi Yin was suddenly curious, what kind of parents could raise such...a silly child.

"What does your family do for a living?" Qi Yin asked, "Where are your grandparents? You brought the cat to find a wife by yourself. Why don't your grandparents come with you?"

"No father, no mother." He replied.

Just a few words, Fulan didn't show any more expressions, but Qi Yin could hear a deep sorrow.

Unexpectedly, they are clearly strangers, but they feel pity for each other.

"Alas..." Qi Yin sighed heavily, pulled Fulan's wrist, and put a purse in his palm, "Here is a piece of silver, which I saved myself, not much, you take it Don’t look for your daughter-in-law. You’d better find a decent job to support yourself and your kitten. When you have some savings, you will be able to find a wife. Don’t worry, men are not afraid of old age.”

Fu Lan stared blankly at him.

"Life is not easy for anyone, just grit your teeth and get through it. Don't take evil paths. Do you know?"

After Qi Yin finished speaking, she patted him on the shoulder, turned and left.He looked down at his slender shadow in the setting sun. It was a long black line, with drooping shoulders and drooping head, like a homeless ghost.He suddenly felt that he was ridiculous, obviously he couldn't take care of himself, and he wanted to comfort others.

He wandered around outside for a whole day today without doing anything, and when he gets home later, I don't know if my aunt will scold him for losing money again.No, now she relied on his identity to send Yao Xiaoshan to the fairy mountain, and she would probably treat him a little better.

The lapel was suddenly pulled, he turned his head, the guy was pulling the corner of his lapel.

"Why?" he asked.

"Is your egg still there?"

"..." Qi Yin was dumbfounded by this guy's sudden question, and unconsciously lowered his head to look at himself, does he look like an eunuch?

"Both are here, what do you want?" Qi Yin twitched the corners of his mouth.

two?Fu Lan was a little surprised, it looked like she was alone before.He didn't care, just said: "Throw it away as soon as possible, it's very dangerous, be careful."

Are you sick?Qi Yin looked at Fulan with the eyes of a lunatic, but Fulan didn't notice anything, holding the cat in one hand and the umbrella in the other, turned her back and walked slowly away.Qi Yin was puzzled, he took good care of two eggs, they were precious, why did he throw them away, it was dangerous... Wait, he suddenly realized, could it be that stone egg?

That guy...how did he know he had a stone egg?

Qi Yin was shocked, and chased him out in panic, but the streets on all sides were only pedestrians coming and going, the setting sun shone on the green brick floor, and the slippery moss was covered with light gold.That person just disappeared, as if he had never been there.

When I got home, I went straight to the attic, dragged out the cage from under the bed, and opened it. There were already several cracks on the stone egg, and it seemed that it was about to shatter in the next moment.Qi Yin was terrified, didn't dare to touch it with his hands, and closed the cage tightly again.

It's very dangerous, could it be a demon egg?

From the bottom of the attic came the voice of my aunt who was shouting and drinking, shouting loudly and stomping her feet loudly, and the whole house echoed her high-pitched tune. He had lived in such noise for 13 years.Pushing open the window, the old lady of the Yao family was dozing off in the drunkard's chair in the backyard, the dusky sunset climbed up to her knees, lingering around her withered fingers.He closed the window, the setting sun was cut off, and there was only him in the gloomy attic, and the monster egg that was about to come out.

----

My aunt stood in front of the Eight Immortals' table and watched Xiaoyuan serving dishes one after another, while the old lady sat down with her eyes drooping, looking as calm as a god.My aunt unconsciously glanced at the direction of the attic again. Qi Yin didn't come home at noon, so she must go back at night. She made a rule at home a long time ago. She doesn't keep the door open at night, and sleeps on the street before going home after the sun goes down. This child is cowardly and has never violated the ban.

While shaking the silk fan, she turned to the threshold and looked up at the attic. The doors and windows were quiet, and there was still no movement.When the dishes were all served, Yao Xiaoshan and Uncle came, only Qi Yin was left.

She became more and more impatient and wanted to go upstairs to have a look.The old lady put the dishes and chopsticks heavily on the table, and shouted: "Come back, eat!"

My aunt shrank her step forward and walked back reluctantly.Just as the old lady served the soup, when the light at the door dimmed, Qi Yin walked in with a small box in his arms, put it on the table, and said to his aunt, "Auntie, this is the unicorn fairy egg my cousin asked me to hide for him. Last time he asked me to hide the talisman for him, but turned out to be a bunch of toads, this time I dare not, so I'll leave it to you."

"Qi Yin, you betrayed me!" Yao Xiaoshan shouted.

My aunt gave him a hard look, and said, "What did you go to West Market for? Returning the unicorn egg must have cost a lot of money, right? Even if there are gold and silver mountains at home, it is not enough for you to toss about! I will search again later. Throw away your foolish things in your house!" She took the box and handed it to Xiaoyuan, "Go, put it in my room."

Yao Xiaoshan was indignant and dropped his chopsticks in anger.Xiaoyuan carried the suitcase and left, Qi Yin sat at the table and lowered her eyes, the auntie smiled at him and picked up his bowl to serve him a meal, "Xiao Yin, you are still sensible, don't imitate your brother. Come on, Eat, young people eat a lot, eat more."

Seeing Qi Yin open his mouth to eat, she felt relieved.There are ingredients in the meal, enough to stun a cow.Everything is ready, only the Eighteen Sons of Liuli in Qi Yin's wrist are owed.The auntie lowered her head, took a sip of the soup, and unconsciously looked at the child again, sitting in the corner with her head lowered, her broken hair covering her eyes.

This child looks like his father, not ugly, he can be called handsome, but he often hangs his head behind the crowd, unable to see his face, like someone else's shadow.His outline is very deep, as if carved out with a knife, and the corners of his eyebrows are sharp, in the shape of a blade.He is very energetic when he smiles, but hard and cold when he is not smiling, as if he is far away from others.

He has such an unlovable temperament, drooping his head and not making a sound, which always makes people feel unlucky.In fact, she hugged him when he was just born, a small one, wrapped in swaddling clothes, with a wrinkled face that kept crying and crying, but when she saw her, she smiled again.She did like him, at least until he came to live with her.The two sisters have been close since childhood, and they are inseparable. Of course, she also loves her sister's child.

But he shouldn't come to her house, he should be dragged away by the water ghost just like his mother.In this way, her love for him can continue to this day, and every time it is the anniversary of their mother's death, she will spend money to do things without hesitation.

She thought she had done him right by pulling him to such a big and tall stature.As long as her son goes to Xianshan, she doesn't mind posting more money to him so that he can marry a happy wife.Cultivating the Tao and becoming an immortal is a blessing that ordinary people dare not dream of in their entire lives.She thought those immortals stood high in the clouds, looking at them must be like looking at dusty dust.From now on, her son will also be able to stand that high, with spotless feet, and a lifespan of thousands of years.

Qi Yin finished eating and went back to the house.She sat at the door, waving a silk fan, quietly waiting for the dark.The moon rises slowly, a full circle, white and bright, which seems to herald the reunion of the world.She sent Xiaoyuan to the old lady, and quietly went up to the attic, the screen window was opened at a corner, the room was dark, and there was a dark shadow on the plank bed.

She pushed open the door and tiptoed in.Qi Yin closed his eyes, his brows were serene in the darkness, he didn't know anything.She stretched out her hand tremblingly, and took off the Liuli Shibazi from his wrist resting on the edge of the bed.It was the only thing his parents left him, and she suddenly felt guilty.

Don't blame me, I'm sorry for you.She said in her heart, tiptoed out the door, and put locks on the doors and windows.Going back to the upper room, laying on the side of the beauty, looking down at the glazed eighteen sons in his hands, he exhaled deeply.The first time I did this kind of thing, my heart beat like a rabbit.Her husband brought a cup of nourishing soup with a smile, "It's still my wife who is amazing, she has worked hard, drink the soup and drink the soup."

She squinted at him, snorted coldly, with a hint of conceit, then lowered her head and drank the bowl of soup.

In the darkness of the attic, Qi Yin opened his eyes.
