My very cool daughter-in-law

If someone hadn't interrupted them, Sheng Xun and Xiao Qiu might have been able to touch each other for one night that day if they didn't feel that there was any strange confusing activity with each other.

The object who came to interrupt was the doll at home.

Andy and Xiaoxiong were actually at the door at the time, but according to the old habits, the dolls usually wait for the big ghost at home to finish talking with people first, and wait for the ghost to greet people enough, and then they will go home together Sheng Xun from home spoke.

This order is an unwritten "hidden rule" of Sheng Xun's family, and all non-human creatures in the house consciously abide by it.

Unexpectedly, that day, Sheng Xun had just entered the room, and just said a few words to Xiaoqiu, and something unexpected happened suddenly, and then, one person and one ghost began to enter a state of no one else—and no ghosts.

Not to mention that they are all focused on each other, they have been focusing on each other for a long time, and they don't give the equally curious onlookers a chance to intervene.

The little bear is a little better, it is a gentle and patient little bear.

Andy can't.

The doll almost exploded.

"Why don't they stop?" Andy kept his voice soft at first, trying not to disturb others in a whisper to the little bear.

Little Bear looked at the people and ghosts in front of him, and said kindly: "Because this is the first time they met each other, it's probably the same as the first time you and I discovered that we can move, stand up, talk and walk. Always amazing."

Andy was persuaded by this reason for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, the patience accumulated by the ghost doll slipped to the bottom again. It couldn't sit still, stood up on the countertop of the cabinet, ran to the edge of the cabinet with two plastic legs.

"I don't think your statement is right again." Andy said to the little bear again.

It makes sense: "When we find ourselves standing, walking, and talking, we're exploring ourselves, we're wondering about ourselves, but look at them—"

Andy stretched out a finger towards Xiaoqiu, who was running around on Sheng Xun's body with ghost hands, and he stopped suppressing his voice, and said loudly: "They look like they are seeing people for the first time in their lives, or it is the first time in their lives. It's like touching a ghost...it wasn't like that when I first met you!"

This metaphor seems a bit strange to Little Bear, it feels that it should not be compared like this, but it can't tell how to compare it specifically.

No matter how much more patient than Andy, the knowledge is a bit richer than Andy, and the more humane bear doll is just a doll. No further analysis is possible.

The ghost doll has no bear to dissuade it this time, and it has an idea in its heart that grows higher and higher as its curiosity overflows.

It bounced around the edge of the cabinet twice, seeing that a person and a ghost still didn't pay attention to it, it took another two steps back, and then suddenly accelerated forward, until it ran to the edge of the countertop, and kicked hard with both feet on the smooth edge of the cabinet. pedal——

The ghost doll jumped towards Sheng Xun.

It also really wants to know how it feels to be able to meet this person normally, because the results of the previous two encounters were disastrous.

Andy felt that he would also go over to touch it now, and Sheng Xun and Xiao Qiu would not be stingy either.

In short, the ghost doll jumped behind the humans with great interest, and boldly hung up Sheng Xun... Then the whole baby burst into howls, and jumped away like a bouncy ball hitting a human's shoulder.

"Hot, hot, hot!"

Andy put an end to Sheng Xun Xiaoqiu's acting like no one else, and it ran around the room, screaming for pain and heat.

Don't care about the delicate atmosphere, or the relative lack of time to look at others.

In the case of a doll suddenly waving its arms and shouting in the room, it feels like young parents who are about to go to bed but hear the baby crying in the middle of the night. Huo Huo felt that there was only noise left.

"Let me see." Sheng Xun asked Little Bear to stop Andy. He walked up to the doll in a few steps, but he didn't reach out to touch it rashly. He only squatted down in front of the doll to check.

Andy raised his slightly scorched arm towards Sheng Xun, with an expression on his face that had been severely beaten by life.

Xiaoqiu walked a few steps slower than Sheng Xun, and the ghost arrived before he got there.

While Sheng Xun was checking Andy's arm, Xiao Qiu also stretched out his hand, and he pressed the burnt spot on Andy's arm.

"No problem." Xiao Qiu's voice came over a few steps away, "It has been learning how to restrain its evil spirit since it came to the house, and it was not hostile when it approached you, but the golden light detected that its nature is yin, and its body There is a bad smell that has not been completely covered up, so I warned it."

Compared with the burns Guiwa got from Sheng Xun in the previous two times, today's warning is nothing short of drizzle.

Andy's wailing was actually more thunderous and less rainy. It really didn't hurt that much, but it was mainly because he was not satisfied.

"It's not fair." Andy continued to murmur, "Why did you open the back door for a ghost?"

Sheng Xun confirmed that the baby was fine, and was about to get up, but he himself didn't realize the change in the golden light until he entered the house, and of course he couldn't answer the question.

He glanced down at Andy's mournful face, and from the corner of his eye, he finally moved closer to him, looking at him all the time, as if he wanted to hear what he would say.

Sheng Xun thought for a while and said, "It's not unfair. Our family also pays attention to the order of opening the back door. Of course Xiaoqiu is the first at home."

The ghost doll let out a hiss at the answer.

The little bear used its cloth-covered side to touch Andy, earnestly expressing that the next seat to open the back door would be for Andy. It could have used the suede-covered half of its body to touch Sheng Xun, and it is also very satisfied with this state.

Xiaoqiu's left hand knocked on the back of the ghost doll's head when the ghost doll hissed, and Andy almost slipped off the little bear's cloth arm.

The ghost did not comment on Sheng Xun's words, but judging from his face, he should be very satisfied.

It was a surprise to find that we could bump into each other. It came so unprepared. On the premise that Sheng Xun had already received too much information that day, "being able to bump into each other" was the last big event that happened that night. This kind of domineering posture came from behind and became the only thing that preempted people's thinking at night.

Before taking a bath and changing clothes that night, Sheng Xun also found a handful of ashes from his shirt pocket. They looked like the dust of some kind of paper products after burning, and some paper fibers remained in the shirt pocket.

Sheng Xun didn't clean up the dust of unknown origin directly. He only found a small airtight bag after confirming with Xiao Qiu that there was no power remaining on it, and poured all the dust that could be collected into it. Store it for now.

It wasn't until the next day that Sheng Xun sorted out the information he had received from Zou He and Huai He, and then roughly explained some of it to Xiao Qiu.

I didn't say everything, because Sheng Xun himself still had doubts about the information in some places.

Also because Xiaoqiu's amnesia is really very thorough.

"Who is Huaihe?" This was the first question Xiaoqiu asked while listening.

Sheng Xun said it was the walnut.

Xiao Qiu frowned, and asked again: "It has a spirit body, is it also a weapon spirit now?"

According to Huaihe, the other party has been a weapon spirit for a long time, and was already a weapon spirit before being given to Xiaoqiu.

Sheng Xun added this point.

After Xiaoqiu listened, she didn't seem to feel any emotion at all, instead her brows were completely frowned.

After a long while, he turned his head towards Sheng Xun quietly: "Then why did you give me a weapon spirit that looks like a grown man?"

Sheng Xun: "..."

Sheng Xun didn't know if he was thinking too much, but he just felt inexplicably that if Xiao Qiu's sentence was a little simpler, it would be a reprint of "Why did you give me a man".

The tone of ghosts and ghosts is very faint, which is very similar to the hero of an emotional drama asking why the main room should take the initiative to "add people" to himself.

After Sheng Xun managed to suppress this unreliable association, he additionally told Xiao Qiu that Huaihe's human form did not exist at the beginning, and that the other party only had a human form when he came to the other party later.

Seeing that Xiao Qiu's expression changed slightly again, Sheng Xun didn't know what he thought of again, relying on his ability to observe Xiao Qiu's words and emotions and his understanding of ghosts' key points, he made a prompt decision and immediately moved on to the next topic, without further ado. Give Xiaoqiu a chance to diverge her thinking.

Next, he tried to share with Xiaoqiu key information such as Zhengdou, the Chu family, the body, and the Chi family.

Xiaoqiu didn't respond to the fight. He heard that he might have had a fierce conflict with a mysterious art family decades ago. Not only is it not getting weaker and weaker, it may be stronger than before, and it is impossible not to have conflicts with people or other ghosts."

Xiaoqiu understates her possibly bloody past.

When mentioning the Chu family, the ghost just nodded his head and said briefly, "Chu Shi's family."

Compared with the Chu family, Xiaoqiu even cared more about the little uncle Zou He that Sheng Xun also mentioned.

When Sheng Xun mentioned Zou He's next-of-kin relationship with the Chu family, he inadvertently mentioned that this little uncle has a baby face and looks younger than Xiao Chu.

Xiaoqiu didn't know why, but at that moment, her eyes were a little alert.

Then Sheng Xun mentioned that Xiaoqiu's body might still exist in the world, and the ghost slightly lowered his head opposite him, as if he was lost in thought.

Sheng Xun waited patiently, thinking that this time, Xiao Qiu would finally think of something.

After a while, Xiao Qiu raised his eyes again, and said to Sheng Xun in a very serious manner: "My body must have decayed long ago, and it's very ugly now."

"..."

Even though he has seen it many times, Sheng Xun still feels that Xiaoqiu's wrongly focused skills are often seen and often new. Every time he sees it, he is convinced from the bottom of his heart.

"It doesn't look good and it doesn't matter." Sheng Xun sighed, habitually wanting to knock something on the other side, almost as soon as he raised his hand, the eyes of the ghost on the other side moved with his hand.

He suddenly remembered that they had touched freely, no need to rely on external objects, and the raised hand fell directly to Xiaoqiu's shoulder.

He passed his hand around his shoulder and patted the other person's back lightly.

"It's not that I don't know what you were like before. Even if your body decayed into bones early, no matter how bad your condition is, it won't scare me." Sheng Xun said, taking the lead in highlighting the key points, and pushing them together with the final key information. In front of Xiao Qiu, "The current situation is that someone may be trying to use your body against you."

"You don't have any more impressions of the Chu family, so do you still remember the Chi family?"

The ghost was slapped on the back, as if he felt that this feeling was a bit novel. When Sheng Xun asked these words, Xiao Qiu was turning his head back, wanting to see Sheng Xun's hand still on his back.

His movements suddenly stopped.

Xiao Qiu's head was still turned backwards, leaving only half of his pale side face to Sheng Xun, unable to see his expression clearly.

Sheng Xun waited patiently for a few more seconds, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

He could smell the traces of blood.

At first, the smell was very light, like a little smell that floated into the house along the wind outside the window, and it was indistinct in the surrounding air, light and ethereal, but soon, it seemed that someone accidentally tore a bag of plasma in the house, It only takes an instant for the blood energy to change from light to thick.

On the balcony not far away, Andy and Little Bear were playing around, and now it was their usual afternoon entertainment time.

In the living room, the blood suddenly spread in a black mist, and Andy dropped the Lego in his hand in shock, while the little bear dodged a little uncomfortable.

The strength belonging to Xiaoqiu coming from the living room is too strong, the half of the body of Little Bear patchwork is stitched together with Xiaoqiu's strength, and it senses the changes of ghosts even earlier than Andy.

Because its body was pulling, the patchwork half was trying to erode the plush half that had been cleaned and purified by Sheng Xun.

"Are you okay?" Andy quickly realized the little bear's discomfort, and the ghost doll rushed over to check, but didn't dare to reach out to touch the black mist-covered body of the little bear.

Andy is also a yin spirit in essence, he is not as deeply influenced by Xiao Qiu as Xiao Xiong, but if he reaches out rashly at this moment and comes into contact with the exposed ghost aura, then the body nourishment that Sheng Xun has brought to him these days will not be enough. All in vain.

Its body will absorb ghost energy like a sponge, and it will become more like a ghost than before it met Sheng Xun and Xiaoqiu.

"What's going on outside?" Andy wanted to reach out to help the little bear but didn't dare. The floor-to-ceiling glass doors of the living room and balcony were almost covered with black mist, and it was so anxious that it couldn't see what was going on outside.

In the living room outside, the place where Xiao Qiu was before has become the center of ghost energy gathering, the closer he gets to him, the heavier the miasma.

It was a scene that would make ordinary people feel breathless. Just taking a step into the depths of the miasma is like stepping into ice water in the cold winter, and the extreme cold will penetrate into the bones of people in an instant , making people feel cold and suffocating.

But in the deepest part of the darkness, there is still a little light.

——It's Sheng Xun.

He was still standing where he was before, and did not leave immediately because of Xiao Qiu's abnormality.

Jinguang no longer rejects Xiaoqiu, but it does not mean that it will give up protecting Sheng Xun in front of Xiaoqiu.

In the center covered by ghost aura in the blink of an eye, Sheng Xun is like the only light in the long night. The light surrounds him quietly, trying to wake up the resentful ghost in a low voice: "Xiaoqiu?"

Xiaoqiu didn't respond, and she didn't turn her head back for a long time.

Sheng Xun just took two steps, he took the initiative to walk over, and stood in front of Xiao Qiu's face.

I also saw Xiaoqiu's current appearance clearly——

Xiaoqiu looked more like a ghost than at any moment since they met.

Beneath his pale skin was black and blue, the white part of his eyes was gone, the overly dilated black pupils occupied the eye sockets, and a spider web-like crack extended from the corner of his right eye, making the upper part of his entire right face bruised. in disguise.

The part leads to the whole, the rupture of the right cheek made Xiaoqiu's whole face reveal an indescribable weirdness, even the first time he showed a ghostly look in order to suppress Tao Ying, he didn't show such a ghostly look.

The blood energy pervading the room was not just ghost energy, but Sheng Xun found that a puddle of blood had unknowingly accumulated in front of Xiao Qiu after walking around in front of Xiao Qiu.

There was a hideous crack on the opponent's left wrist, and the palm of his right hand was also stained with blood.

Strands of blood and tiny drops of blood are constantly flowing out.

"...Xiaoqiu?" Sheng Xun moved his lips a few times, but he forgot what he wanted to say before he opened his mouth. In the end, he squatted down in front of the ghost who was still sitting, and tried to call the other person's name again. .

Xiao Qiu maintained the posture of turning his head, his head was slightly lowered to the ground since he showed his ghostly state.

Sheng Xun squatted down and raised his head before he could face his expressionless face.

The ghost still didn't speak, he was still sitting quietly, Sheng Xun was right in front of him, but his figure didn't seem to catch his eyes, his eyes were focused on the void.

After a while, Xiao Qiu seemed to be sinking deeper and deeper into this Shura's ferocious state, his facial features finally moved, but the corners of his mouth were slowly drawn up, and he smiled slightly towards the void.

I'd rather listen to ghosts crying than laughing ghosts.

This old saying crossed Sheng Xun's mind unexpectedly, ghostly laughter is a big evil, but at that moment, he actually didn't care that much at all.

Sheng Xun simply confirmed that the golden light would only dispel the miasma, and would not hurt Xiaoqiu.

Then, he gave up the method of calling Xiaoqiu back to God with words alone.

He straightened some legs and hugged him in a bent over position.

"Wake up." Sheng Xun said while hugging Xiaoqiu.

He felt like he was hugging a piece of ice, and a bit like hugging a stone that had been stored in an extremely humid and closed place for a long time, so it exuded a strong smell of corruption.

The stones and ice bricks even had blood on them, the smell of decay and blood was extremely unpleasant, and the tentacles were cold and stiff, as if there was an indescribable dampness, like the water vapor soaking through the walls when returning to the southern sky .

But he didn't let go, instead he tightened his arms, carefully pressed the back of the ghost's cold head in blood, and continued in a low voice: "There is no enemy here, you are at home."

Sheng Xun's voice was calm and gentle, and he carefully comforted the obsessed ghost like a child caught in a nightmare: "Wake up, take a good look, this place is safe, you are at home."

This time, Xiaoqiu seemed to finally hear Sheng Xun's voice, and the ghost's slightly lowered head just touched Sheng Xun's shoulder.

After a long time, the head moved slightly.

Sheng Xun felt hands climb up his back again, and he breathed out calmly.

The owner of the hand quickly asked, "Sheng Xun?"

"It's me." Sheng Xun quickly responded.

Xiao Qiu's head moved again, and he took the initiative to distance himself from Sheng Xun.

Almost when Xiaoqiu called out Sheng Xun's name, the miasma around him faded, and the blood in the air changed from thick to weak again.

This is the proof that Xiaoqiu has woken up.

After the distance between the person and the ghost was slightly widened, Sheng Xun didn't care about anything else, and immediately looked for Xiaoqiu's right face, left wrist and hands.

The blood and cracks just now were like a daydream, and they all disappeared after Xiaoqiu regained her sanity.

But Sheng Xun still remembered how they appeared there.

The gaze he cast on the past was a little dark.

"I just..." Xiao Qiu acted as if he was also having a lucid dream during the day, his expression was a little sleepy, and he still hesitated when looking at Sheng Xun.

He said slowly: "I didn't know why just now, I seemed to be very angry all of a sudden, and I couldn't control my emotions."

Sheng Xun restrained the emotion in his eyes, he glanced at the balcony, and signaled from a distance that the dolls who were finally able to peep from the glass door were all right.

The ghost continued to ask: "Did I look scary just now?"

"No." Sheng Xun withdrew his gaze, said so without thinking, and because Xiao Qiu obviously didn't believe it, he changed his words and said, "It's okay."

Xiaoqiu still didn't believe it, but she didn't ask any more questions, and just nodded.

He seemed very sleepy and tired, so he let himself lean back on Sheng Xun, and after a while he said softly, "I hate the Chi family."

Sheng Xun already understood that the Chi family was a topic that might cause Xiao Qiu to go crazy, and his arm was still behind Xiao Qiu's back, and he only patted Xiao Qiu lightly.

"Okay." Sheng Xun said.

"I don't remember anything." Xiao Qiu continued to emphasize, "But I definitely hate the Chi family."

Sheng Xun boldly marked the key information of "Chi Family" in his heart.

But he still didn't say anything verbally, only said: "Okay."

The author has something to say: Sheng Xun: Write down the Chi family in a small book.
