The mountain ghost blows out the lights

It was also snowing in Yanjing City today.

The snow was not heavy, and a thin layer fell on the eaves, like catkins in spring, which quickly melted under the sun and wet the green bricks on the street.When pedestrians step on it and walk around, it will make a muffled sound.

It is now evening, and Linlang Pavilion's daytime closing time has just passed, because Yan Jinping had ordered before leaving that Linlang Pavilion would not be open at night when the two of them left, so when the two of them came back, they ignored the direction of the gate and entered directly. to the building.

The front hall was quiet, and the front door was locked inside and out.The candles were already lit, and the shark beads were all where they should be, but there was no one, not even a shadow of a person.

Shen Lianxing looked around, and felt that the atmosphere was very similar to the night when he first came back to Linlang Pavilion.

But when he first came here, he would inevitably feel that this place was a bit eerie, but now he is completely used to it, and only feels familiar.

"Where are they?" Shen Lianxing said, "Why didn't I see any of them? Didn't you tell Babao that you're coming back today?"

"It was notified in advance." Yan Jinping was not surprised, "Otherwise, when Linlang Pavilion is not open, the front yard will not be lit--Babao's relatives come to visit, and it should be entertaining. It has many relatives and is too busy That's normal too."

He also asked for Shen Lianxing's opinion: "Are you going back to your room to rest? Or come with me to see Babao?"

He is the owner of Linlang Pavilion, and there are guests at home. Although goblins generally don't pay much attention to this, he should go to say hello no matter what.Shen Lianxing didn't have such worries, he was more or less half of Linlang Pavilion's guest, it didn't matter whether he went or not.

"Of course I'm going." Shen Lianxing smiled, "I haven't seen Babao for a long time, so I miss it."

Also, I forgot that these two are good brothers.Yan Jinping took Shen Lianxing to find the rabbit.

The corridors of Linlang Pavilion at night are strangely long. There are houses on both sides that should not appear in the same place at all, and the location and number of the rooms sometimes change. Even the ghosts who work in Linlang Pavilion, It is also sometimes unclear where the doors lead.

As for the real function and changing rules of the house, I am afraid that only Yan Jinping, the master of the pavilion, really knows.

He led Shen Lianxing to a small wooden door that was a head shorter than himself, bent down and knocked on the door.

After a while, Rabbit's familiar voice came from the door: "Who is it?"

"Eight Treasures." Yan Jinping smiled, "We are back."

There was a moment of silence in the room, and then the rabbit's characteristic rattling footsteps sounded.Babao jumped to the door in a hurry and fiddled with the door for a long time before successfully opening the door.

It's strange, it's obviously indoors, but behind the door is directly connected to a grassland and clear blue sky.

The grassland is much warmer than Yanjing City. The grass not far away is as high as a person's calf, and the warm wind blows and falls down, showing an effect of "the wind blows the grass and sees the rabbits", and the number of rabbits is quite large. There are many, black and white flowers, and they are fluffy and huddled together. When they heard the door open, they all turned their heads to look this way.

"Boss!" Babao stood in the middle of the bushes and said pleasantly, "And Brother Shen! You are back!"

Shen Lianxing nodded at it, and said with a smile, "Babao, long time no see."

Yan Jinping: "...what kind of look do you have?"

"These are all relatives of my family!" Babao held four big white rabbits in his arms, and a small one stood on his shoulders and on top of his head. The whole rabbit was almost round into a rabbit ball.It happily introduced to its boss and good brothers: "Look, this is my third cousin, that is my fifth cousin, and that is 130-one cousin..."

Shen Lianxing interrupted it: "Wait a minute, how much?"

Babao repeated honestly: "130 one."

Shen Lianxing: ...

He couldn't help being curious, and asked Babao, "How many cousins ​​do you have?"

Babao thought about it seriously for a long time, and counted the furry rabbit paws, finally put down his paws, and replied truthfully: "... I don't know, I haven't counted it, I only know three hundred, and there are many others. I know you."

All right, as expected of a rabbit.

"Then what about this one?" Shen Lianxing looked at the tangle of little white rabbit on top of Babao's head, thought it was cute, and wanted to touch it.When reaching out his hand, he asked Babao, "Is this your cousin too?"

The little white rabbit's eyes widened when it saw Shen Lianxing reaching out for a hug.It arched its back suddenly, jumped up from the top of Babao's head, kicked randomly in the air, kicked the back of Shen Lianxing's right hand with precision, fell back on top of Babao's head, and glared at Shen Lianxing angrily .

Shen Lianxing was wearing gloves, and it didn't really hurt, but it probably left a mark when he kicked it like this, so he rubbed his hands in surprise.

"...This is my second cousin." Only then did Babao have time to introduce.

Yan Jinping had been standing by the side watching the fun, but at this moment he couldn't bear it any longer.He laughed unkindly, patted Shen Lianxing's arm gloating more than comfortingly, and asked Babao: "Did you see Li Chuizhu? We didn't see her outside when we came back."

"I don't know." Babao hugged his second cousin and a group of cousins, shaking his head, "I haven't seen Li Chuizhu since last night, maybe she's busy with something?"

This is actually not unusual.

Babao likes to play around in the building, and he can't lose it; Yuntong didn't show up often, and often went out to spread the clouds and rain, and now he may still work for Rongling in Langhuan Pavilion; Henu often goes out to play for a day or two. When I got home, I probably went to find ghosts to eat, and besides, she is very capable, no one in Yanjing City can do anything to her, so there is no need to worry.

Only Li Chuizhu, because of the nature of cats, usually does not go out when not going out, and does not move when not moving. The most favorite thing to do besides sleeping is to rub the eight treasures. If there is no accident, if you find the eight treasures, you will be able to see Li Chuizhu .

Now even Babao doesn't know where she went, it's really strange.

"That's fine." Yan Jinping didn't take it too seriously - even a guy in the store has to let others have some space - he nodded to the rabbits around him, and smiled as if he was the owner of the pavilion, " Play well everyone, if you need anything, just go to the Eight Treasures and prepare, don't be polite, we won't bother you for now."

The rabbits looked at him together, and each made a chirp-wah-wah sound. Although they didn't understand at all, Yan Jinping felt that they were just ordinary polite words, so he was about to leave with a smile on his face.

In fact, he was already very tired, and going out for a trip was a lot of work and effort.Yan Jinping hadn't done this kind of work for a long time, and when he was outside, he still had a sense of energy, and immediately relaxed when he returned to his familiar place. He didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to go back to his room and rest.

"Hey, Master." Babao called to stop him, "Aunt 36 said, if Master wants to find a beautiful little rabbit demon to marry, you can ask her to introduce you."

Aunt 36 hangs on Babao's shoulder, and is the only rabbit with a flower hat on her head.Hearing Babao's words, he nodded in agreement, and several little rabbits gathered around Babao, and glanced at Yan Jinping shyly and timidly.

Yan Jinping: ...

Yan Jinping never expected that Babao's relatives would be so enthusiastic just after meeting.I had no choice but to nod perfunctorily and said, "Thank you, I will definitely do it next time."

Then he quickly picked up Shen Lianxing, closed the door and left.

This time it was Shen Lianxing's turn to suppress a smile, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's Boss Yan who welcomes you so much."

The popular Boss Yan glanced at him and snorted softly, "Are you envious? Why don't you let her introduce one to you?"

"Don't dare." Shen Lianxing said, "The next mortal, even if I want it, they still look down on me."

"Mr. Shen is really too modest." Yan Jinping turned his head and showed him a sinister smile, "Mr. Shen is handsome, handsome, and delicious. Monsters like you the most. You must be very popular."

Shen Lianxing: ...

Combined with Yan Jinping's tone of voice and demeanor, Shen Lianxing was very sure that the kind of liking that Yan Jinping said was definitely not the kind of ordinary liking that the matchmaker said.

The two of them walked towards the inner room while talking nonsense, but the inner room didn't change much. Usually Babao and the others like to move the soft cushions around, but now there are cushions scattered all over the ground. It must be the time when the two left home They played a lot during the time.

Xianghe in the corner heard the sound, and silently opened the box a little. Because Shen Lianxing was there, he didn't stick his head out, and said hello quietly: "Boss, Mr. Shen, the two of you are back."

Then, without waiting for Yan Jinping's answer, he retracted into the box again.

Further inside the inner room is where Yan Jinping lives.Boss Yan went to the snow-capped mountains, apparently too tired to go back and rest.Shen Lianxing couldn't follow, so he said goodbye: "Then you have a good rest, I...huh?"

The two heard the sound of flapping wings almost at the same time, and turned their heads to look out the window.

The moonlight outside the window was very bright, and one could see the figure of Jin Yuwei hovering under the moon. Besides, there was also a black shadow, which was getting bigger and closer under their gaze, and finally saw the face clearly. It turned out to be The crane girl who flew back from nowhere.

Dan Ge flew in from the window, and before he could retract his wings into his arms, he said anxiously: "Master, it's great that you have arrived—I saw Li Chuizhu outside the city! Go and see her!"

"Slow down." Yan Jinping heard something wrong from Dan Ge's tone, and stopped her with a frown, "Speak up, what's going on, what happened to Li Chuizhu? Why is she outside the city?"

Dan Ge stomped his feet, shook his head and said, "She, alas, her betrothed fell into the river outside the city, nearly died, and used her tail!"

"Take me there." Yan Jinping understood immediately, and his expression suddenly changed from relaxed to serious.He didn't have time to explain to Shen Lianxing what was going on, he just stepped on the edge of the window hastily, turned his head and said concisely: "Sorry, I'm going out for a while, and I'll tell you when I come back."

Then he followed Dan Ge and jumped out from upstairs.

The Linlang Pavilion has a high floor, and the moment Dan Ge went out, he turned into a crane, making Yan Jinping kneel on his back, and took him to fly out of the city.The crane looked slender and slender, but its speed was extremely fast, and it flew steadily with a person on its back. It flapped its wings a few times, and soon disappeared.

It was too late to leave the main entrance, it seemed that it was really urgent.
