In the end, it turned out that Xu Chaoxi and Uncle Zhong were the only ones who felt embarrassed. Aunt Fang was just surprised and asked about his partner, where the ghost was, and why she hadn't seen him before.

Sure enough, as long as I am not embarrassed, the one who is embarrassed will always be Bie Gui.

Xu Zhaoxi hesitated for a moment and was about to say who it was. He knew that homosexuality, sexuality, and love affairs were rare after all, especially ghosts at the age of Aunt Fang and Uncle Zhong, who probably couldn't understand it.

Noticing his hesitation, Uncle Zhong pretended to be annoyed and said to Aunt Fang before he spoke, "Why do you ask so many questions? You thought you were checking your household registration at the street office!"

"What's wrong with me, aren't you just curious?" Aunt Fang replied in dissatisfaction with Uncle Zhong, and then saw Uncle Zhong shaking his head.

She didn't understand the reason why she couldn't ask this question, but she still broke the topic and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm just curious, you young people are too thin-skinned to say it, I understand."

"It's not that I'm embarrassed to say it, but you have seen him before." Xu Zhaoxi said.

He saw the eye movements of the two ghosts just now, but he couldn't interrupt when the two ghosts were talking, so he explained clearly when he asked: "It's my brother."

"?"

"……what?"

Xu Zhaoxi went back to his home after dinner.

Uncle Zhong and Aunt Fang were very surprised by the fact that he was in love with his brother. He stayed there awkwardly and then came back.

In the evening, Aunt Fang came to look for Xu Zhaoxi with a pot in her arms. At this time, Pei Ji had already returned from get off work, and the two ghosts were discussing what to have for dinner.

Hearing Aunt Fang calling him outside, Xu Zhaoxi told Pei Ji to go out to meet Aunt Fang, with a smile still on his face: "What's the matter, Aunt Fang?"

The female ghost was also straightforward, saying: "Lao Zhong and I were too surprised at noon, we didn't react for a while, there was no other meaning."

Xu Zhaoxi smiled and shook his head: "It's okay."

He didn't care what other people think about his relationship with his brother, anyway, no matter what the ghost said, he and his brother would never be separated.

"I just have a question," Aunt Fang asked in a low voice, "You and your brother...are not related by blood?"

⊙0⊙

"Of course not!" Xu Zhaoxi quickly denied it. It turned out that Aunt Fang was surprised by this at noon. He explained clearly, "My brother and I are not related by blood. We only called him that when we grew up together."

"Hey, I thought..." Aunt Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and she also felt a little funny when she said it, "It's okay, everyone is dead, who cares whether you are with a man or a woman, man and man It’s also quite common to live together in the underworld.”

She stuffed the jar she brought into Xu Zhaoxi's hand: "I see that you like this pickle very much, so I'll bring you some."

Xu Zhaoxi wanted to decline again, but was blocked by Aunt Fang who said "there is too much to eat at home".

After delivering the pot, Aunt Fang went home shaking her hands. At the door, Xu Zhaoxi looked down at the earthen pot exuding the aroma of pickles in her hand, curled the corners of her mouth, and smiled slowly.

"Brother~" He trotted back to the kitchen to look for Pei Ji, and showed the jar in his hand, "Look, the pickles from Aunt Fang!"

"What have you been talking about for so long?" The male ghost glanced at the smile on the kid's face, and reached out to take the jar, "Eat tonight?"

Although he had eaten a meal at noon, Xu Zhaoxi felt that he could have another meal!So he nodded: "Well, it tastes great when used to stir-fry meat, brother, try it."

Pei Ji: "Bacon or fresh meat?"

After eating bacon, Xu Zhaoxi said, "I ate bacon at noon, and fresh meat at night."

The male ghost heard that Xu Zhaoxi didn't eat at home at noon, because there was no pickles at home, and the jar on the counter had just been brought in.He asked, "Aren't you home at noon?"

"That's right, I met Aunt Fang and Uncle Zhong before lunch, and invited me to eat at their house..." Xu Zhaoxi babbled, and by the way, told about Aunt Fang's question about his partner at noon, and apologized for coming to deliver pickles just now .

After hearing this, the male ghost stopped chopping vegetables, turned his head, and said, "I was introduced to someone every year."

Xu Zhaoxi shook his head violently, and said loudly: "No." It was just asking him if he wanted to find a partner, without any specific implementation.

Pei Ji looked at his empty hands and thought, "It's really not obvious..."

Xu Zhaoxi, who didn't notice, was still asking, "What did brother say?"

"I'm thinking about when I can extract the mountain soul." The male ghost said.

Sure enough, Xu Zhaoxi was distracted, and the soul of the mountain can only be refined into the blood essence, so he asked, "When will it be refined? Are we going to move after that?"

Pei Ji estimated the time: "After the year. As for moving, staying nearby can speed up the fusion speed, but it's okay if you don't want to move every year, at most it will be slower."

"No, I don't want to move..." That's my brother's home, how could I not want to move, the kid muttered, "It's good that my brother doesn't mind if I turn Fengdu City into a vegetable garden."

Pei Ji smiled: "Fengdu City hasn't changed for many years, it's not bad to change the style."

Xu Zhaoxi: Court style → pastoral style?

……

After New Year's Day, the Spring Festival is getting closer and closer, and the ghosts living around Xu Zhaoxi and his family have started to buy new year's goods. In the town, I often see familiar ghosts shopping for their homes.

Only Xu Zhaoxi and Yuebai's family should do what they want.

"Are you going to Fengdu City for Chinese New Year?" Yue Bai, who was on vacation that day, asked where Xu Zhaoxi was celebrating Chinese New Year.

There is still one week before New Year's Eve, and the elementary school in the town is already on winter vacation, and a few little ghosts ran across the street laughing and laughing.

Xu Zhaoxi stepped aside and said, "That's right, how about you, are you going to Qingyun Town?"

"Well," Yue Bai nodded, "My grandparents have been talking about it for a long time, telling me not to buy too many things, just go there for the New Year, and let you go with me."

Hey, there is still him?

Xu Zhaoxi was quite surprised: "I can go to pay New Year's greetings after the next year, and you, when the time comes, go to Fengdu City to play."

"No, no, no," Yue Bai quickly declined, "I get nervous when I think that all the ghosts and gods I don't know will be there, so let's get together when you return to Xiaoxi Village."

As he talked, he remembered Xu Zhaoxi's mention of moving before, and sighed: "Oh, when you move away, I will live here alone."

Xu Zhaoxi: "? It's not like I won't come back."

Here he also planted fruit trees and lotus flowers, but he has not eaten lotus seeds yet.

But he was also nervous about Yuebai's nervousness. My brother said that introducing him to all the ghosts and gods during the New Year's Eve sounded like meeting relatives and friends. Could it be a special dinner party or something?

Afterwards he asked Pei Ji privately, and Pei Ji said, "If you like this every year,"

Xu Zhaoxi: "I don't like it!" It doesn't have to be so grand.

Three days before New Year's Eve, the two ghosts packed their luggage and returned to Fengdu City.

Compared with the last time they came, the city of Fengdu had a lot more ghostly atmosphere, blessing characters were posted everywhere and red lanterns were hung up, and attendants could be seen passing by on the road from time to time.

Xu Zhaoxi moved into Pei Ji's dormitory, and Lianyi wanted to go forward to pack their luggage, but Xu Zhaoxi quickly refused: "No need, I'll do it myself."

My brother said that Lianyi was a female ghost, how could he have the nerve to let a girl pack his suitcase.

Although this girl may be old enough to be his ancestor...

Lianyi smiled and exited the hall, before leaving, he said: "You can call me by my name if you have anything to do."

Xu Zhaoxi smiled back, turned around and was embraced by the male ghost, and asked him, "Do you like refining clothes?"

Xu Zhaoxi: "Are you okay?"

Pei Ji didn't say anything, just kissed his forehead and went to pack his luggage.

There are many ancient clothes with thick colors and complicated styles hanging in the carved wooden wardrobe. Xu Zhaoxi looked at each one with curiosity: "Why doesn't brother wear these now?"

Think how handsome it looks.

Pei Ji hung his clothes beside him and said, "It's too troublesome. I used to only wear them on formal occasions, such as court meetings or foreign guests visiting, or going to heaven to report on my work."

Huh?The content of the words attracted Xu Zhaoxi.

He helped the male ghost pack his clothes and toiletries: "The court meeting is like the emperor's court meeting? Then why was it cancelled?"

Pei Ji: "There is a mobile phone."

Going to court is just for the convenience of discussing work. Now that you have a mobile phone, you only need to join a group. The same is true for reporting work.

"Sure enough, technology has changed the life of ghosts," Xu Zhaoxi said in shock, and then asked, "What about foreign guests? There are ghosts in foreign countries too?"

Pei Ji: "Yes, but it may be different from what you imagined." Then he explained the foreign ghost to Xu Zhaoxi.

There are heaven and hell in foreign countries, but the soul after death will only go to hell, and only angels with wings live in heaven.

"Then can we travel abroad?" Xu Zhaoxi asked with interest.

"Not for the time being," the male ghost patted his head, "This catastrophe has sealed the passages from the underworld to other spaces, and they can't even go to the heavens. Only the passages guarded by the ghost emperors of the five directions are naturally connected to the sun. Didn't break contact with Yang Shi."

It is also for this reason that he decided to step into the reincarnation pool to avoid disaster after discussing with all the ghosts and gods.

"That's it." Xu Zhaoxi was a little regretful, but not particularly disappointed. He hadn't finished watching the underworld yet.

Pei Ji thought for a while: "There should be a video on the Internet, if you are curious, you can find it."

The two ghosts were talking, when Lianyi suddenly said at the door: "Dijun, the central ghost emperor asks to see you."

After the New Year greetings, most of the people who came to visit before the year were for work.

Pei Ji told Xu Zhaoxi where he was going to work and then went out, and said that Xu Zhaoxi could go to him if he was bored, or asked Lianyi to take him to Luofeng City for a stroll.

Xu Zhaoxi didn't want to go to Luofeng City for the time being, he was quite curious about Painted Skin Ghost.

Therefore, as soon as the male ghost left, he paced to the door and occasionally glanced at the refining clothes instructing the attendants to decorate the front hall.

The red dress is so pretty.

The waist is so thin, is this also a painting?

The makeup seems to have changed a bit compared to that day, is it because of a new face or makeup?

Hey, she looked over, her pupils were also red...

"!" Oops, peeping was discovered!

Discovering that the future emperor and empress had been watching her secretly, Lianyi, who was worried that the other party had something to say and was embarrassed to say, flew over.

Geez, it seems rude to peek at girls.

Xu Zhaoxi blushed: "I didn't mean to peek!"

Lianyi covered her lips with a chuckle, didn't care about such a small matter, and asked softly: "Is the empress looking for me?"

"Don't call me Empress, it sounds weird," Xu Zhaoxi said, and found that the other party was not angry at him for peeking, so he smiled naturally, "My name is Xu Zhaoxi."

"The rules can't be broken," Lianyi smiled and didn't respond, and asked again, "Is there something the empress wants from me?"

"Actually, it's nothing..." Xu Zhaoxi hesitated, "That's right, I'm just a little curious..."

"Curious what?"

"Well, how to paint the painted skin?"

So when Pei Ji came back after finishing his work, what he saw were two ghosts gathered around the stone table in front of the hall, muttering something.

Head to head, very close together.

The author has something to say: Lianyi: I am a professional in painting skin~
