My very cool daughter-in-law

At seven or eight o'clock, it's still early for this busy city to calm down. The subway station is bustling with people. Even if there is only one train heading for the University City on the platform, the continuous supply of passengers will be able to fill up. Fill up the waiting spaces immediately.

When Sheng Xun came down on the escalator, he happened to watch a fully loaded subway leave. At this moment, he was looking up at the small suspended LED screen, looking at the station time on it, and confirming the next time. The arrival of the subway is in a few minutes.

Xiao Qiu looked at Sheng Xun when he was confirming the time.

Gui Wa took advantage of Xiao Qiu's gaze at Sheng Xun, and thought he was hiding a quick glance at Xiao Qiu.

"Look at what?"

A cold voice suddenly fell from the top of the head, startling the doll who thought her movements were subtle and quick.

Xiao Qiu's eyes still fell on Sheng Xun, not only did he not lower his head, but he didn't even lower his eyelids symbolically.

But he did catch the doll's peeking behavior, and rarely took the initiative to talk to the other party.

But the ghost doll acted as if it was overwhelmed by this sudden "honor", its first reaction was to pretend to be dead, trying to pretend that it had done nothing just now.

Xiaoqiu has always had limited patience with people other than Sheng Xun.

He probably only patiently waited half a minute for Sheng Xun to watch the time.

Seeing that the human beings looked away from the LED screen, it seemed that they were about to turn around and look at themselves.

Xiaoqiu moved her wrist lightly—this was to tell Guiwa that if she didn’t speak again, she would never have a chance to speak.

The ghost doll was coerced by an invisible force, and it immediately "lived" again, and quickly said truthfully: "I saw you because you seemed a little strange just now."

"What's strange about him?" It was Sheng Xun who asked.

Sheng Xun turned around after confirming the time, just in time to hear Guiwawa's last sentence.

Because the subway station was very noisy, and people on the left and right were either wearing earphones or concentrating on swiping their phones, he felt relieved to ask his own questions amidst the noise, so that his communication with the ghosts would be hidden in the noisy environment.

It may be because Sheng Xun offered to go to Xiaoxiong before, and Guiwa's attitude towards him has obviously improved by more than a little.

Hearing that it was Sheng Xun who asked, Guiwa replied faster than when facing Xiaoqiu.

It almost deserves to be honestly said: "It tastes weird."

There is only one smell that can make the ghost doll care about, and that is the so-called "smell of lost things" and "smell of discarded things" that it has identified through its own ability.

But the ghost doll then told Sheng Xun that the reason why it said Xiao Qiu was strange was because Xiao Qiu's smell at that moment just now was very weird, completely different from the other party's usual smell.

The smell is so complex that ghost dolls can't even be classified, it's not simply discarded or discarded.

And it hasn't even been able to smell it carefully, the smell disappears as fast as it appeared.

In the blink of an eye, I couldn't smell anything anymore.

"Can you describe the taste as much as possible?" Sheng Xun asked Ghost Doll after listening, with a little encouragement in his tone.

He intuitively felt that this was important information, closely related to Xiaoqiu's memory.

However, at this moment, the disadvantage of the ghost doll's lack of vocabulary is vividly reflected again.

The ghost doll also seemed to be working hard, it said all the words it could think of to describe the taste.

Just to put it bluntly, the adjectives that Guiwa listed for Sheng Xun are roughly like this——

Weird, strange, complex, different, very different.

Che Jilu talked back and forth, and at the end Guiwau silently closed his mouth, while Sheng Xun rubbed the space between his brows.

"Forget it." Sheng Xun said, "I shouldn't make things difficult for you."

The ghost doll felt that it seemed to have been insulted by its knowledge, but with a doll who paid attention to knowledge, it didn't seem right at all.

Sheng Xun gave up on the line of dolls.

He turned to Xiaoqiu, turned his encouragement and concern, and asked the ghost in a gentle voice: "What were you thinking just now?"

Sheng Xun tried to extract some key information from Xiaoqiu, so that maybe they can simulate the situation just now, and see if the smell that makes the ghost doll care about can appear again.

But Xiaoqiu didn't answer immediately, she just looked at Sheng Xun quietly with her eyes.

Sheng Xun and Xiao Qiu looked at each other silently for a moment, slowly tasting a little innocence from that face.

Sheng Xun suddenly realized: "Are you trying to tell me that you forgot what you just thought?"

With a more innocent face, Xiao Qiu nodded.

After ordering, she seemed to sense that Sheng Xun's expression was too helpless. Xiaoqiu also had a bad memory today, but she was not as confident as usual with a bad memory.

Under Sheng Xun's gaze, he stretched out his hand, and silently grabbed the corner of Sheng Xun's clothes.

"Don't be angry." Xiaoqiu said.

His voice was still as cool as ever, but with the content of his speech, he was cautious, and vaguely a little helpless as if he had done something wrong.

Sheng Xun was just helpless, how could he get angry because of this.

He was pulled at the hem of his clothes first, and after hearing this sentence, before he realized it, his frowning brows were loosened, and the corners of his lips softened.

"I'm not angry." Sheng Xun said with a sigh.

Xiao Qiu looked at his face seriously again, as if judging whether what the human being said was true.

The next subway came soon as scheduled, and Sheng Xun rushed into the carriage with the crowd.

When Sheng Xun tried his best to behave as usual in the crowded situation, and still circled a small corner around him that was big enough for ghosts and monsters, Xiao Qiu seemed to be in a very good mood.

He took this as proof that Sheng Xun was indeed not angry, filled himself happily and perfectly, and stayed motionless throughout the subway with Sheng Xun's clothes on.

During the period, several people standing near Sheng Xun whispered whether the air conditioner in the car today was a bit too low.

Sheng Xun heard it in his ears, and could only watch his nose and nose, pretending not to know.

The ghost doll was quiet for a while after the question about the taste was put aside for the time being. It only made a sound when the subway was about to arrive at the station, and asked Sheng Xun, "Why are you willing to help me find the little bear?"

There are people on the left and right of Sheng Xun, and Xiao Qiu squeezes the ghost doll into the small space between him and the pillar.

He could only look down at the ghost doll to show that he was listening.

The ghost doll said again: "I don't treat you well, and I thought about attacking you."

It was inconvenient for Sheng Xun to answer this question on the subway, but he didn't expect that shortly after getting off the subway, he was asked the same thing again by Junior Chu.

Chu Shi said on WeChat in the afternoon that as long as Sheng Xun and the others can bring back the ghost doll, he will prepare the necessary tools to help them calm Qi Ling's resentment and solve the problems caused by Qi Ling.

Junior Chu is a promise-abiding person. As usual, he came to pick up people on time with his small schoolbag full of props on his back. He not only prepared the necessary props, but also prepared a heart to fight against Qi Ling.

Who knew that it would be another one or two hours without contact, when he saw Sheng Xun at the subway entrance—and at the same time saw the ghost and the spirit behind him, he suddenly realized, isn't it?Is the situation completely different from what he expected?

The facts soon proved that the situation was indeed completely different from Chu Shi's expectations.

In the photo I received in the afternoon, the ghost doll who is a tool spirit still has a face full of resentment, and the whole face vividly conveys what is called a toothy grin, looking at Sheng Xun with an expression as if Sheng Xun turned it into this ghost people who look like.

At this moment, Chu Shi saw this weapon spirit with his own eyes, but what he sees now is——

Although the ghost doll is still surrounded by filth, but the other party is held in the hands of the big ghost, the whole doll is almost harmless, and there is no sign of aggressiveness.

At first glance, it seems that Sheng Xun and the others found a toy for the big ghost.

Chu Shi also carefully observed the expression on the ghost baby's face looking at Sheng Xun, and then he found that, for some reason, the other party's attitude towards Sheng Xun turned 180 degrees, and he could no longer see the previous state of gnashing his teeth.

The place where we meet and talk in detail is still the bakery workshop. Tonight is the evening shift of Lao Luo and Chu Shi.

On the way to the store, Sheng Xun briefly talked to Chu Shi about the evening, and gave Junior Chu a more condensed version of the story of the doll and the bear.

When Lao Luo was waiting for them in the store, he just went up to Sheng Xun and Chu Shi, when he heard Chu Shi ask Sheng Xun in a complicated manner: "Do you want to help it?"

"Help for what?" Lao Luo asked in a daze.

Chu Shi sighed and pointed to the doll in Xiaoqiu's hand.

He took this action for granted, and it was only after he finished that he immediately remembered that Lao Luo could neither see Xiaoqiu nor the doll.

However, Lao Luo's mentality is also very stable.

He silently glanced at the whole piece of "air", and first asked Sheng Xun if the "big boss" from last time was there.

Hearing Sheng Xun said that he was here, Lao Luo greeted Sheng Xun happily behind him, and after that, he didn't ask any more questions, let alone asked if there was anything else here, and then turned around and walked in. The back kitchen, said to serve them some dim sum that was still hot in the back kitchen.

Xiao Qiu may be a bit addicted to eating snacks today, and Sheng Xun fed him a desire for delicious food that he has been silent for many years.

Hearing Lao Luo talking about desserts, Xiao Qiu's eyes still fell on Sheng Xun. He looked at Sheng Xun quietly, but in that calm gaze, Sheng Xun could clearly see Xiao Qiu's interest in the baking workshop. something very interesting.

No matter how you look at that look, you will want to ask him to hand over some to the other party later, which means that the other party wants to taste it too.

So after a while, when Lao Luo brought up the mish-like dim sum plate, Chu Shi, who was sitting opposite Sheng Xun, saw that Sheng Xun began to feed the ghosts around him in a quite skillful posture.

Occasionally, I also benefit the ghost doll in the hands of the big ghost.

Chu Shi: "..."

why?

This is obviously a combination of one person, one ghost and one weapon spirit. They were still at odds this afternoon. Why did they wait until night to reveal a sense of harmony like an alternative reorganized family?

"Xiao Chu?"

It was Sheng Xun who was the first to notice Chu Shi's complex gaze, and he called out to the elementary school boy with some doubts.

"You..." It's like a reorganized family.

Chu Shi quickly took a bite of himself on the inside of his mouth, and then swallowed the strange words back in time.

In order to cover up his unnaturalness, Junior Chu coughed to cover up, and forcibly reversed his words and said, "You...well, you are getting along really well now, completely beyond my expectations."

With this excuse, the topic just returned to before, and it was about helping the ghost doll find another spirit weapon.

Chu Shi shook his head and confessed to Sheng Xun that he was still surprised that Sheng Xun was still willing to help Qi Ling after being attacked.

"I think you are a little too kind, senior." The junior said hesitantly.

Sheng Xun actually understood Chu Shi's astonishment very well, just like he also understood Guiwawa's disbelief about his proposal and the hesitant question on the subway.

However, Sheng Xun's character seems to have a very prominent trait innately, but it's okay not to put things in front of his eyes for things that are linked to "seeking" and "meaning". Once he sees them, they will be pushed to him. , as long as he has the ability and spare energy, he can't help but want to help a bunch.

"Just think that I have worked hard to find something in my previous life, or pursued something far-reaching." Sheng Xun joked, "Maybe I have suffered and experienced this, so I accidentally I remember that in this life, I want to help when I see other people’s affairs.”

"But the senior." Chu Shi couldn't help but said, "If ordinary people really suffered in the previous life, then in this life, shouldn't it be that they subconsciously stay away from things that have anything to do with suffering?"

"Well."

Sheng Xun was paused by Chu Shi's words.

At that moment, he seemed to think of something, but the thought flashed like a superficial image, and suddenly sneaked into the depths of his mind and disappeared.

Xiaoqiu was still holding half of the dim sum that Sheng Xun had handed over before, and the ghost doll was sitting on the armrest of the chair on Xiaoqiu's left, and the sound of Lao Luo humming a ditty and cleaning the moulds could be faintly heard from the back kitchen.

And Sheng Xun, who had been distracted for a while, was watched by Chu Shi, Xiaoqiu and Guiwa at the same time.

"This means——" Sheng Xun finally said after a while, he came back to his senses, and smiled suddenly, "It means that the more suffering may be only the process, or even just a part of the process, and the final result, no matter how good it is. Bad, I fought for it voluntarily, and I don't regret the decision to fight for it."

That little smile was fleeting on Sheng Xun's face, he seemed to be a little confused by the unreasonable laughter, and shook his head after laughing: "It's as if there really was such a previous life."

Chu Shi didn't dare to answer this sentence.

He blinked his eyes across from Sheng Xun, and didn't dare to tell Senior Sheng that when the other party said those words just now, there was a little unreal sense of time and space.

Xiaoqiu was still holding half a dim sum and didn't move.

The ghost doll moved on the armrest of the chair, and it became the first one to speak: "I want to find the little bear, and I am willing to accept any result."

It stood up on the armrest and said to Sheng Xun, "You're right, at least I have to go find it first."

At this time, Chu Shi finally had another chance to speak.

"If you really want to find it, there is no way at all." Chu Shi clicked the little red ball held by the ghost doll in his arms. When it comes to his professional field, he always speaks very smoothly , told the ghost doll, "This breakthrough is what Little Bear gave you."

Even if the little red ball is now eroded by the power of the ghost doll, it seems to be a part of the ghost doll.

But Chu Shi said that in any case, it escaped from the bear doll, and originally belonged to the bear's body part.

If they can try to erase the power of the ghost doll from the little red ball, and let the little red ball return to its most authentic form before being corroded, it will be cleaned up through the little connection between the main body and the original spirit. The little red ball that passed may lead them to where the little bear is now.

"What should I do to clear up my power?" Ghost Doll asked anxiously, it stared at Chu Shi closely, as if expecting this person to take out something in the next moment, and then told it that this could immediately clear up the filth magic weapon.

But Chu Shi seemed to hesitate for an answer.

Before he retracted the hand that had tapped the little red ball, it paused in mid-air and turned to the side.

This time it pointed to Sheng Xun.

"The most simple, rude and efficient way is to find Senior Sheng Xun." Chu Shi said, "According to what you said, the little bear was nourished in a peaceful environment and accumulated aura, but it just happened to arrive at the garbage dump It was officially awakened on the day of . It should still be counted among the positive weapon spirits in general, only partly affected by pollution."

"Golden light won't work on pure and gentle power, it only clears away filth and evil."

After Chu Shi had finished speaking, there was no need to continue, as Sheng Xun and the others understood everything.

Put the little red ball back into Sheng Xun's hand, let the golden light burn.

Because the little bear was once a generous and gentle doll, its soul itself is pure and clean, the golden light will not only not destroy it, but also drive away the filth from outside.

...But because the little red ball is also the body of the ghost doll, the golden light purifies the red ball. For the ghost doll, it is a burning pain that must last until the purification is over.

Every time the golden light purifies the little red ball, it scrapes away one point from it.

It hugged its little red ball, which also belonged to the little bear, and stood there for a while.

Is it scary to be burned by golden light?Terrible, that kind of pain is rare in the life of a ghost doll, so even if it was neither reconciled nor convinced before, as long as it thinks of the burning pain of the golden light, it will temporarily obey in front of humans and big ghosts.

But it wants the little bear to come back...or even if it doesn't come back, it doesn't matter, does it want to find the other party?

Does it also want to try to do something regardless of the result, at least so that it will not regret making a decision?

it wants to.

The ghost doll suddenly jumped up, it jumped out with the speed of its own shadow, and couldn't help but press the little red ball it was holding into Sheng Xun's hand.

The pain of being forcefully burned to the body came overwhelming.

"Pull it away!" The ghost doll heard the loud voice of the human closest to it, and it took a long time for its vague consciousness to realize that it was Sheng Xun's voice.

Sheng Xun was calling Xiaoqiu, who had been watching over the ghost doll all the way.

The ghost doll suddenly stuffed the little red ball into Sheng Xun's hand, but the golden light made it unable to remove its doll's body from Sheng Xun's hand.

Xiao Qiu quickly came over and lifted the ghost doll away by the back of her neck.

The doll curled up under his pale fingers.

This is a willful and perverse doll, not a good wit by nature.

And it offered the most violent generosity of its life, and in exchange for a glimmer of hope, wanted its first friend back.
