I was picking up fluff in Liaozhai

"I'll talk to the old village chief later." The uncle said this, and suddenly the door was pushed open.

"Crack, click." Something seemed to be calling.

"Uncle what?" Bei Chen turned over and saw a tortoise with a red and black shell, a bird-like head, and a long poisonous snake tail, slowly wandering into the room, lying in the corner, blowing comfortably With hot wind.

"The old neighbor's ears are not working well, so I caught a tortoise and kept it secretly at his house for a few days." Smiling, he took out some dried meat from the cabinet and fed it to the tortoise until the tortoise was full. , and put it in his pocket again, "It just so happens that I have too many calluses on my heels." One turtle has two uses.

Although Bei Chen has entered the Bureau of Unnatural Events, he is really not a native who accepts such things since he was a child, and he is not used to it.

After thinking about it, I figured out, "Ah, Rotary Tortoise, it can cure tinnitus and calluses on the soles of the feet." It really works.

"Yes, but this Spinning Turtle has a lot of mixed blood, so let's make do with it." He patted the Spinning Turtle with his limbs curled up in his chest, planning to squint for a while, "In the age of the end of the Dharma, there is not much spiritual energy left. Is it possible to make do with it.” Otherwise, where else can we leave?

What he said was really interesting. Bei Chen leaned on the cat's belly and thought for a while, "Yuexu, if you hurry up and practice hard, can you also fly?"

"Hmph, you can ask your partner about this. When I reached the peak of cultivation, it was already the end of the Dharma Era, so I have no chance." As he spoke, he licked his paw, and then patted the cub on the head with his meat pad: "Get up, I'm hungry!" gone."

"There's no takeaway here that I can order for you." Since Boss Wang gave his cat owner a mobile phone, good guy, the generous Boss Wang has shared half of the money for him, at least half of the cat's cost.

This made Bei Chen extremely embarrassed, so he had to draw some peace talismans every month and give them away, so he couldn't prostitute other people's cat food for free.

Yuexu jumped to the ground and shook his hair: "Xiao'er, you are underestimating me." After saying that, he jumped to the ground and ran to the back of the mountain after a few strokes. By the time Beichen reacted, the cat had long since disappeared. up.

Beichen thought for a while: "Uncle, if my cat harms wild animals, will I be sentenced?"

In the end, Yuexu brought him an extremely huge fish, so huge that a cat could drag it that was bigger than Beichen people.

This is really trying to suck the milk, the fish is full of sound, it looks like a carp, but it is not a carp, and it makes a "quack".

The uncle is a familiar fish killer, and he lit the fire: "What do you eat?"

"Sauerkraut." Yuexu pushed open the door and went back to the house, roasting his paws, "It's been a few years since I went to the pond your grandfather dug to catch fish, and the fish grew really big."

"The pond my grandfather dug?" Why didn't he know that there was any pond in the back mountain that could raise such a big fish.

"When you were young, you liked to eat this fish. We found a way to get it for you." Speaking of this, Yuexu first laughed to himself.

It didn't take long for the food to arrive, and other relatives in the family also came, seeing Yuexu and Beichen come up to say hello one by one: "Xiaobei has grown up."

"Yuexu, you're getting fat again."

Black Cat: "Would you like to eat your rice?"

"I've eaten my Xiaobei's rice."

There are not many relatives in my hometown, only six or seven, and none of them are willing to move, and they will not leave the village for several years.

On weekdays, he also likes to live on the mountain, but today he saw Yuexu going up the mountain to catch fish, and heard that Xiao Bei was back.

Immediately, they went down the mountain and had a meal together, and they were able to watch Xiaobei talk.

In Beichen's few memories of celebrating the New Year at home, these old people would happily drink wine at the dinner table, bragging, saying that he could be five meters tall in the past.

Said that some kind of monster was not the defeat of his subordinates back then, and some kind of Taoist little fairy chased him for three hundred miles back then.

blah blah, blah blah.

When he was young, Xiaobei liked to eat at their table and listen to stories, but his mother didn't like it, thinking that these people were talking nonsense and mentally ill.

However, his mother is strong, she has too many things to do, and she can't control Xiaobei even if she wants to.

Later, his mother and father went to a bigger city to develop, and took Bei Chen away, and they didn't come back to celebrate the New Year for several years.

"Xiaobei, I heard that Fan Ding is nothing!"

"Although the Fan family is stronger than us now, our Bei family is not easy to talk to. I have already contacted the old man of the Fan family. This year's Chinese New Year, Fan Ding will definitely let Fan Ding kneel!"

"Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Fan promised us that he will take care of this unfilial son."

In the past, Bei Chen couldn't understand what they were talking about, and thought it was a fairy tale in the legend, or they were drinking too much nonsense.

Although he has not joined the supernatural group for a long time now, he can understand a thing or two, and even say a word or two, when a few elders are chatting and discussing spells.

The elder with the goatee immediately happily took out a small book from his pocket, "You can learn this! It's all your uncle and my housekeeping skills!"

"Yes, yes, this is your third grandpa's housekeeping skills. You can take a look. At the beginning, I heard that my grandson was very talented. When he was born, the Beichen star was as bright as the sunrise. Now that you have entered the door, then Just study hard, and don't waste the skills of our old Bei family even in the age of the Dharma."

Beichen took a bite of the fish, the fish was delicious and juicy, tender but not fishy, ​​and most importantly, it hadn't been thorny yet.

This fish, if you slice it casually and throw it into the fried pickled cabbage, there will be several large pots of pickled cabbage fish in a short time, which is so full that the belly of the person who eats it will bulge.

The kitten that Yuexu ate over there didn't even raise his face, and Beichen would wipe his mouth for him from time to time: "Since I'm talented, why didn't grandpa teach me back then?"

The expressions of the elders in the family were different for a while, and after a while, his uncle said: "Baby, you don't need to learn it. If you can cultivate Taoism and become immortal back then, you can go to elementary school. Now in the degenerate age, others learn something for three to five years. You might be able to take a look at it, but the ceiling of the world today is just like this. It’s unnecessary, unnecessary.” He said with an indescribable bitterness, “What’s more, your grandfather didn’t want you to learn this at the beginning.”

"Our old Bei family has too many grievances with "Ghost Talk Collection". This is not a good thing. Back then, your grandfather had already expected that he would die."

"Old Bei's clansmen who died a happy death because of "Ghost Talk Collection", there is not enough to write a book, there are too many. He doesn't want you to follow in his footsteps. Now... this can only be said to be a bad fate."

Beichen looked at Yuexu, he didn't know if it was Nie Yuan, but he was brought to the supernatural group by this cat.

What if you don't go by yourself?

At night, Beichen slept in a separate room. An old man who liked to live in the mountains stuffed him with a big mouse with white fur. If you add firewood in the middle of the night, you don’t have to worry about the heavy carbon dioxide. After a while, the whole house will be warmed up.”

Beichen looked at the mouse that was bigger than a cat, a little dazed, "Will it fight Yuexu?"

"What are you talking about, Yuexu is this kind of cat who commits vulgar tastes?"

While talking, the old uncle turned on the heating stove in the room and threw the mouse into it. In the next second, Beichen felt that the room was much warmer.The mouse with its jade-white fur turned red in an instant.

He happily washed his face with his two small front paws, and even squeaked twice.

The old uncle squatted down and taught Huoshu, "When people come outside, you are not allowed to make a sound."

The Fire Rat also nodded in a very spiritual way, "Zhi Zhi Zhi" in agreement, promising that it would never make a sound.

Bei Chen seemed to believe it or not. He looked at the cat on the bed looking at its legs and licking its fur, and then at the fire rat that was grooming its fur in the stove, and it was burning red.

OK, there shouldn't be a problem.

midnight!He wanted to slap himself twice.

Mouse "Squeak!"

Cat "Meow Meow Meow!"

fight up...

To be exact, Yuexu unilaterally bullied the mouse sleeping in the stove, every time he would stick his claws in and beat it, hitting the fire mouse who was sleeping soundly

"Yuexu, try to bully Huoshu again!"

The next day, Bei Chen, who was gasping for breath, carried his fat cat and uncle to Liu's house to catch a banquet. Today is the new year, and it stands to reason that everyone would start going door to door after the new year, visiting relatives, giving gifts and so on.

Although the Liu family was a lot earlier, their excuse was that Liu Xu had made a lot of money outside, so he wanted to hold a few more tables to make it lively.

Beichen's hometown is still in the south. Although it's cold in winter, he can still have banquets outside. There is a layer of translucent plastic on the courtyard, which is not tight enough, and there are light strings coming in. There are still burning paths around, which is warm. Bright again.

The good wine, good food and tobacco on this table are also very popular in China, very proud.

Holding the wine, Liu Xu toasted one by one, smoking a cigarette, enjoying the compliments from others.

The Zhang family also came today, Zhang Sen sat in the corner, eating quietly, glanced at his fellow villagers, and Bei Chen from time to time, as if he was always busy.

The uncle glanced at Zhang Sen, his heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his voice and muttered to Bei Chen who was eating next to him: "Liu Xu is exactly what you said, but if Zhang Sen continues to be so wicked, he will die."

Bei Chen said "Mm" in a neutral tone, "They know what they are doing."

"That's right," the uncle looked at the more or less wicked looks on the faces of the two families.

To outsiders, the family looks alike, but they are not.

"Although these two families are not the best families, but the elders are kind and honest, they have no great blessings, no diseases, no disasters, and generally live a long and healthy life." Why are they all so virtuous now? ?

The originally bright red face was covered with a layer of dust, and it didn't look particularly energetic.

"What did they do?" Uncle put down his chopsticks, wondering, "Last year, Liu Xu and Zhang Sen didn't look like this."

He couldn't figure it out, this Liu Xu couldn't bear it long ago, he stared at Zhang Sen disapprovingly, and insisted on toasting Bei Chen.

It's still the same kind: "Don't drink? Do you look down on you, Brother Liu, and me if you don't drink?"

"Drink and drink, and I will take you to do business and make a fortune after drinking."

"I have to drink today, we won't eat if we don't drink!"
