Express delivery is a high-risk occupation

The courier brother stopped the small three-wheeler and swiped it over and over again on the screen of the mobile phone. The word zero was still mercilessly displayed on it, without any change.

The bright zero score attracted all of Xu Mu's attention. He stared at the top row with distressed eyes. The average score had dropped to 4.93. At least two items were given away for nothing today!

Xu Mu was like an eggplant beaten by frost, and immediately wilted.

[There is a social event tonight, don't wait for me for dinner. 】The screen vibrated violently, and a message from Feng Yuan was pulled out.

【OK. 】Xu Mu hesitated again and again, but held back the desire to complain to Feng Yuan, replied briefly, and then dragged his heavy legs onto the small three-wheeler.Since I don't have to go home for dinner tonight, I won't be in such a hurry to go to Yuetan Street later.

Yuetan Street is an old street left over from the Ming Dynasty. It has a history of almost 500 years. The original buildings on both sides of the street have been destroyed in the war, and only two stone archways remain.The current Yuetan Street is an antique street rebuilt on the original site. Most of the shops on both sides of the road are Shanghai special snacks, which are very popular.Four or five years ago, it was changed into a commercial pedestrian street. Because of its antique flavor and unique characteristics, and two authentic antique archways, it has become one of Shanghai's famous tourist attractions.

The two stone archways in the middle of the road are three towering archways with four pillars, with flowing eaves and flying ridges, and bucket arches with flower wings.The stone is made of cyan tea garden stone, and the carving process is more complicated and exquisite.

The column body, Liangfang, Dougong, and Queti are exquisitely carved in relief.The decorations on the archway are even more exquisite and gorgeous, with "ying (eagle) posture (pheasant) huan (badger) hair", "majestic phoenix", "ruihexiangyun" and other characters praising the emperor at that time and the peaceful and prosperous age. pattern.

Under the two pillars in the center, there are four squat-shaped stone lions standing on the front and back respectively. The carvings are exquisite, simple and unrestrained.

When Xu Mu arrived at the intersection of Yuetan Street by bus, it was exactly [-]:[-].

Because of the impact of zero points, Xu Mu was finally deducted a few dollars more, and now he was frowning, and his whole body exuded a sleepy breath.

He didn't take a few steps toward the conspicuous Toudao Memorial Archway in the middle of the street, when he saw Shen Liang, a bald little Taoist priest in a blue gown, standing on tiptoe at the entrance of a time-honored soup dumpling shop, looking eagerly at the steaming steamed buns just out of the oven. Crab Roe Soup.

In the small yellow bundle behind him, a black cat with soft fur lay on his shoulder with its paws.One person and one cat, their expressions are similar like copy and paste.

"Shen Liang!" Xu Mu cupped his hands around his mouth like a trumpet, drowning out the noisy voices, and waved at the little Taoist priest.

"Brother Daoist!" Seeing Xu Mu, Shen Liang immediately showed a sunny smile, and rushed towards Xu Mu with the burden on his chest.

The little black cat on his shoulder was dissatisfied with the turbulent state, and directly patted his ears with a few paws.

Shen Liang didn't seem to feel it, he didn't slow down at all, he ran directly in front of Xu Mu and stopped, and said happily, "Brother Dao, there is still time now, let's eat that crab roe soup bun, shall we?"

Xu Mu: ……………

What about restraining your greed?

"It's important to get down to business first, and we'll talk about it when we have time." Xu Mu changed the topic vaguely, stroked the little Taoist priest's round head, and brushed his palm with a short hair.The crab roe soup dumplings in that store are not much bigger than the glutinous rice balls, but the price is [-] yuan a piece, which is too expensive!He went crazy to buy it!

"Brother Dao, you haven't explained in detail, what's going on?" Shen Liang looked at him with big round eyes.

Xu Mu then recounted the situation when he encountered a puppy and a teapot asking for help. When he was practicing breathing techniques a few days ago, he asked Shen Liang on the sidelines. Do not catch monsters casually.Only when you feel that the other party is doing harm to the world or taking money from others, will you take the initiative to take action.So, at this moment, Xu Mu was not too worried that the little Taoist priest would take the puppy and the teapot monster away indiscriminately.

"Brother Daoist, I invited you here mainly to let you see what kind of monster is sealed inside the stone lion. If it is some kind of vicious guy, it would be bad if it was released to harm ordinary people." Xu Mu said what he was worried about. Tell Shen Liang.

"A monster who needs to use a stone lion to suppress its hostility should not be an ordinary character. However, if I don't release it, I may not be able to break through the original Taoist formation to identify its real body."

"It's okay, just try it, anyway, I'm just starting out, and I'm a thousand miles away from you. I'm sure I won't be able to see things that you can't see."

The two walked while chatting, and as soon as they got to the head archway, a puppy with brown-red fur came out from under the belly of the stone lion with an azure teapot in its mouth.

Let's just say that these two guys must be playing tricks!

Xu Mu looked at the intact Feitian pot and murmured to himself.

[Little Taoist, you are here! 】The teapot lifts the lid, and greets the courier brother in a low voice.

Xu Mu looked at the bustling crowd around him, but he didn't dare to respond, but just pretended to be very interested in the stone lion and touched the one horn on top of its head.

【Roar! 】The stone lion let out a long roar, the sound was like a torrent of bells, like thunder piercing his ears, Xu Mu's jaw almost dropped in shock.He withdrew his hand in horror, staring at the stone lion in front of him.

wipe!This thing can't be repaired into a monster, right?

Xu Mu looked at the curious Shen Liang and the unresponsive puppy next to him, and finally realized that he was alone again!

Only he heard the roar of the stone lion.

Shen Liang could feel the evil spirit, so when he saw Xu Mu's expression, he understood most of it. The stone lion in front of him must be weird.

【My seventh brother was sealed inside this stone lion. 】The puppy scratched the giant stone lion's paw with its paw, and said lonely.

Wait, your seventh brother?Who made the sound just now, your seventh brother or the stone lion?

Xu Mu looked at the stone lion in surprise, then tentatively touched the top of its head.

【Human, if you tease me again, I will turn my back on you. 】The stone lion roared angrily.

What, teasing you?

Xu Mu looked at his hand on top of the stone lion's head, "Touching your horn is called molesting?"

[I, the Shijia clan, regard touching each other's unicorn as a courtship act, how many times have you touched my horn, and you still say you didn't flirt with me? 】

Xu Mu: ……………

Well, those who don't know don't blame it.

Also, please don't use such rash actions about courtship, okay...

Shen Liang, the black cat, and the puppy teapot next to them blamed them. They stood in a row high and low, all staring up at Xu Mu who was talking to himself while facing the stone lion. Although they couldn't hear it, they knew it. Xu Mu must have heard something.

【Seventh brother, is my seventh brother talking? 】The puppy anxiously jumped onto the paw of the stone lion, raised its head and asked Xu Mu.

Xu Mu shook his head. The one who complained just now should be the stone lion himself. It is basically impossible for the monster sealed inside to completely coincide with its appearance.

"Is there still a monster sealed in your body?" Xu Mu lowered his voice and asked the stone lion.

【You mean the guy who sleeps all day? 】The stone lion snorted, 【That guy is very violent. He tossed so hard in the past few decades that he almost smashed me into pieces. In the past few decades, he seems to have given up. He has been silent and sleeping. 】

"It said that your seventh brother is sleeping now." Xu Mu repeated what Shi Shi said to the puppy in a low voice.

【Seventh brother, I will definitely find a way to rescue you. 】The puppy said to the stone lion with firm eyes.

【I will help too. 】The teapot monster lifted the lid of the pot, and followed behind to make a statement.

[Stop making noise, it says it just wants to sleep now and doesn't want to come out. 】The stone lion told Xu Mu dissatisfied.

Xu Mu: ……………

It was obviously those two people under your feet who made the noise just now, not me, okay!

The courier brother sighed helplessly and had to do the translation again, "According to Shishi, your seventh brother said that it just wants to sleep and doesn't want to come out."

[Don't want to come out now?So when is it going to come out? 】The puppy blinked, and looked at Xu Mu with some disappointment, Brother Qi didn't want to come out?Then it and Jin Sheng are not in vain...

how could I know?

Xu Mu rolled his eyes towards the sky, the communication was really difficult, and he had to switch hands twice each time.

Judging from this situation, they might have to come here for nothing today. Even if he wants to let the other party out now, the other party may not agree.This posture of swearing to sit in prison is really rare.

Shen Liang closed his eyes and raised his brows, made seals with his hands, and said to Xu Mu in silence for a long time, "The stone lion's demonic aura is average, probably only at the third level. But the one in its body should have a strong background, at least at the tenth level." .”

grade ten?

Xu Mu pursed his lips, Fu Zhu was only at the ninth level, and the master who was sealed here was actually above the tenth level?

"Who the hell are you?" The courier boy looked down at the brown-red fur puppy. Where did you come from?To be able to sworn obeisance to a beast above tenth level!

[Pepper map. 】The puppy answered with his head up, 【The one locked inside is my seventh brother Yazi. 】It never dreamed that Yazi would stay inside and refuse to come out, and now it doesn't know what to do.

The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each with their own preferences. The eldest son Bixi, the second son Chiwen, the third son Pulao, the fourth son Bigan, the fifth son Taotie, the sixth son Chongbu, the seventh son Yazi, the eighth son Suanni, and the youngest one is Jiao. picture.

Xu Mu: ……………

I wipe!You are actually a dragon?

Xu Mu and the puppy stared at each other for a long while, you don't even look like a dragon at all!

Since the one inside is Yazi, the fierce god, it's better for him to stay inside and sleep first, the courier brother thought silently.

The puppy hesitated for a long time around the stone lion, and then bit the ear of the teapot for a long time. Finally, he had to say goodbye to Xu Mu and left with the teapot in his mouth.

Xu Mu had dinner with Shen Liang, and by the way, he asked the little Taoist priest a few questions about stagnant breathing, and it was exactly eight o'clock when he returned home.

He practiced for two hours according to the method corrected by Shen Liang. Just as he was about to take a shower, he heard the sound of the key turning at the door. It should be that Feng Yuan had returned.

Xu Mu stepped out of the bathroom and looked outside, only to see Feng Yuan leaning on the sofa with half-closed eyes, pulling off the tie around his neck with his slender fingers.

Hearing the sound, he calmly turned towards the bathroom, and asked Xu Mu, "Did you wash?"

"Not yet." Xu Mu nodded, wrinkled his nose, strangely, the room seemed to smell of alcohol, "Brother, have you been drinking?"

"I had a few drinks, so I asked the driver to come back." Feng Yuan took off his tie and threw it on the sofa next to him, his eyes clear.

"Want something to drink to warm your stomach?" Xu Mu scratched his ears and walked over to sit on the sofa, looking at Feng Yuan's appearance, he seemed to be fine.

"I'm fine." Feng Yuan rubbed his head affectionately, and put half of Xu Mu's body in his arms, "Why don't you seem so happy?"

"Brother, let me tell you, I got a zero score today!" Xu Mu was bored for half the night, and now when Feng Yuan asked him, he immediately dug out the letter with the lowest score in history and hugged Feng Yuan. His arm complained, "Zero, he actually scored zero!"

Feng Yuan glanced at the screen of his mobile phone, and patted Xu Mu who was leaning on him, "It's getting late, hurry up and take a shower and sleep."

When Xu Mu walked into the bathroom, he always felt that something was wrong. He took off his T-shirt halfway, and then he suddenly remembered, no, Feng Yuan would never allow himself to rub on him if he didn't take a shower. No response?

Thinking of the smell of alcohol in the living room, Xu Mu was startled suddenly, shit, Feng Yuan couldn't be drunk, right?

He rushed out of the bathroom, only to find that the living room was empty, the kitchen, and the master bedroom were all gone.

Where is Feng Yuan?

The author has something to say:

Minor offenses are generally used to protect their shortcomings, and those who are drunk are even more serious ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Remark 1: The dragon gave birth to nine sons. There are several theories about the specific ranking and names of the nine sons. Here we just choose one according to the needs of the text.
