damn it

"Yo!"

When Dou Cheng heard this familiar voice, his scalp tightened. He didn't want to talk nonsense with Blind Liu, so he was about to turn around and walk away, but he was a step too late, and was blocked by Blind Liu.Dou Cheng subconsciously wanted to roll his eyes, but when he saw blind Liu's cataract eyes halfway through the roll, he hurriedly stopped and shook his legs impatiently.

"What?" Dou Cheng was annoyed. After the grass stabbing incident last time, when he saw Blind Liu, he reflexively raised his hand to touch his neck, and subconsciously kept his distance with a sullen face.

"It's rare to be a neighbor again. This is fate. Let's have a drink together to celebrate?" Blind Liu added with a smile: "I'm treating you." As he spoke, he passed a cigarette.

Dou Cheng took the cigarette, but just played with it between his fingers, without any intention of smoking.

Blind Liu saw it, but didn't care: "How about that mutton restaurant on the street? I heard it's very authentic, delicious, and doesn't smell like sheep at all." Seeing that Dou Cheng wanted to refuse, he interrupted, "Don't Rushing to refuse, let's have a meal together, I really have something to tell you."

Although blind man Liu said this, Dou Cheng didn't let go: "Not today, let's do it another day."

Blind Liu had nothing to do with him, so he nodded.

When Dou Cheng bypassed Xiazi Liu, the little ghost just floated out of the cake shop, and the big and small had no tacit communication, so they went back together.

Blind Liu watched Dou Cheng go far away before turning his gaze away, shaking his head and going back to the shop under renovation.As soon as Blind Liu entered the store, a young man appeared from where he had stood before, staring at Blind Liu's back with sinister eyes.

This young man is none other than the young ring-robber who appeared in the teahouse earlier.

The ghost youth didn't stand outside Liu Xiazi's shop for too long, and quickly turned around and walked in the direction where Dou Cheng and the kid left.The ghost itself has no shadow, but under the sun, there are distorted shadows under his feet, front, back, left, and right, and each shadow is subtly different.

It wasn't until the ghost youth disappeared into the light and shadow that blind Liu, who had been facing the door, turned around and pressed the cigarette butt on the compass, and the compass that was spinning crazily stopped in an instant.

The workers were busy with the decoration, but no one noticed the strangeness on Liu Xiazi's side.

Dou Cheng didn't even know that blind Liu had saved his life just now.

When he got home, Qu Zhong had already put the hot food on the table and was serving soup outside, but Dou Cheng went to pick it up but was dodged.

"Go and wash your hands." Qu Zhong squinted at Dou Cheng, avoided him and brought the soup on the dining table.

Dou Cheng curled his lips, with the tip of his tongue dangling against the back of his teeth, he walked towards the kitchen. As soon as he reached the door, Qu Zhong grabbed his wrist suddenly.

"Why?" Seeing Qu Zhong's face suddenly so serious, Dou Cheng didn't understand why.

Qu Zhong didn't speak, he took Dou Cheng into the room quickly, made him stand with his back to the full-length mirror, held his head and turned back.

Dou Cheng was puzzled and let himself be manipulated. The next second, he saw a dazzling bloody handprint on his vest, and he was shocked.

"What did you encounter outside?" Qu Zhong asked.

Dou Cheng: "Xiazi Liu, he also moved his shop here, and it's next to the cake shop on the left when you go out of the community."

Dou Cheng was talking, but he was muttering in his heart, is there something wrong with blind Liu?

Unexpectedly, Qu Zhong shook his head and rejected it: "No."

"Why not? I don't know who I met?" Dou Cheng said, "I really met blind Liu. The kid is with me. He's going to the cake shop to smell the cakes. It's just right for me to take him there. Happened."

"No." Qu Zhong frowned: "Blind Liu is just an ordinary Mr. Yin Yang, he has some abilities that ordinary people don't have, but he absolutely can't do this, no matter if he is a real blind Liu or a grass-roots person, he can't do it." .”

Speaking of this, Qu Zhong suddenly thought of something, narrowed his eyes, turned around and walked outside.

Dou Cheng followed behind him, and saw that he had reached the entrance and was about to open the anti-theft door.

"It's time for dinner, you want to go out?" Dou Cheng asked subconsciously.

"You eat, I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back soon." Qu Zhong said that he had already opened the door and went out. Before Dou Cheng could say anything, he closed the anti-theft door.

"Hey..." Dou Cheng didn't have time to call someone, so he had to give up, and when he turned around to go to eat, he found that the little ghost was not there: "Why do everyone leave as soon as they say, forget it, ghosts don't need to eat anyway."

Dou Cheng eats alone, although he is too quiet, but he also enjoys it.

After eating and drinking enough, Dou Cheng cleaned up the dishes and moved a chair to the balcony to bask in the sun.

Although this place is also an old building, it is many times better than Dou Cheng's house. It has good lighting and is not damp. Since he moved here, he has nothing to do every day. Except for hanging out, his favorite is to bask on the balcony. The sun, when you let go of your brain, soak in the sun and think about nothing, you will feel that your body is a lot lighter, as if you can fly into the sky with wings, shoulder to shoulder with the sun.

Today, Dou Cheng didn't feel the thrill of being about to soar, just turned his stomach and closed his eyes and leaned on the recliner for a while, when he heard a noise coming from downstairs.I got up and lay down on the balcony to look down, but I didn't see anything, there was no one downstairs, and I don't know where the noise came from.

Dou Cheng stretched his head and squatted on the guardrail for a long time, but he still saw nothing. Just as he was about to retract, he saw a person suddenly walking out of the shadow. Oh no, to be exact, it was a translucent shadow. If you don’t look carefully If you don't even know that it's a human figure, you probably thought it was a spot of light passing by.Almost the moment he saw the shadow, Dou Chengcheng realized that it was not a person.

However, at this moment, the shadow suddenly stopped, then turned around, and suddenly looked up in Dou Cheng's direction.The shadow seemed to be covered with mist, and the face could not be seen clearly at all, but Dou Cheng could still recognize the figure at a glance as the ghost young man who almost killed him in the teahouse before.

Damn, the ghost is still here!

Dou Cheng subconsciously retreated, thinking that the ghost would run up when he found him, but the other party didn't at all, and turned around and ran away. His figure flickered and disappeared at the corner in the blink of an eye.That moment happened so fast, if Dou Cheng hadn't been surprised, he would have thought it was his eyesight.

Just as he was in a daze, he saw the little ghost suddenly flying out from the shadows, stabbing his head at the corner, then turned around and came out after a while, standing at the place where the young ghost stood before, looking around.Soon Qu Zhong also came out, and he didn't know what to say to the little ghost, so he reached out and touched the little ghost's head, and then the two walked into the darkness one after the other.

In just a minute or two, Dou Chengcheng heard the sound of the anti-theft door being unlocked, turned around and entered the room, and sure enough, he saw one big and one small walking in.

"Are you back? You were chasing that ghostly young man downstairs, right? I think he disappeared around the corner." Dou Cheng looked at them and said.

The little ghost didn't look at Dou Cheng, and floated to the corner to squat down in dejection, playing with the string that tied the balloon, obviously depressed.

There was nothing unusual about Qu Zhong. He glanced at the clean dining table, stretched his long legs, walked to the sofa and sat down: "Let him run away again."

"What's the origin of that thing?" Dou Cheng suddenly became interested, and sat down next to Qu Zhong: "Didn't he say it belonged to your Qu family before, so why did he run away when he saw you?"

Qu Zhong turned his head to look at Dou Cheng, with strange incomprehensible eyes.

Dou Cheng stared at him.

"He is not from the Qu family, but..." At this point, Qu Zhong paused: "It was the Baojia fairy that my grandparents supported."

"What?" Dou Cheng was stunned.

"It's a mountain ion that has cultivated Taoism and become a master." Qu Zhong sighed, and was about to continue, but was interrupted by Dou Cheng.

"What is Shan ion?" Dou Cheng was confused.

Qu Zhong paused: "Wild cat."

Dou Chengcheng rolled his eyes: "You can just say it's a wild cat, tsk, and you deliberately gave me a strange name!" After a pause, he asked again: "The reason why he insisted on snatching the ring you gave me that day was because it was you, Qu Jiabao. Family Immortal, can't you see your treasure falling into my hands, so out of servility, you want to take it back?"

Qu Zhong moved his mouth, but suddenly stopped talking, his eyes were so deep that Dou Cheng couldn't understand.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Dou Cheng felt his heart pounding.

"You should have heard..." Qu Zhong's tone was a little low: "A snake bites the third generation's injustice, and a dog bites the enemy."

"Ah." Dou Cheng nodded: "What's the matter?"

"Shan Ion will find you, it is indeed related to the ring, but..." Qu Zhong sighed, and after a while he continued: "He should have recognized you as his murderous enemy in the previous life."

Dou Cheng's eyes twitched, and he pointed to his nose.

Qu Zhong didn't look at Dou Cheng: "Shan Ion is a Sanxian, and it's not easy to practice in the first place. He has been doing his best to keep the house safe when he was supporting the Qu family. It's a pity that he later recognized my brother as the master, and followed him to help the tyrant and do all kinds of bad things. Later...it was naturally destroyed by humanity, and the person who killed him at that time was wearing this golden ring, so when you appeared with the golden ring, he recognized you as him."

Dou Chengcheng was a little dizzy: "According to what you said, he didn't wait for me in the teahouse at that time, but I just happened to bump into him?"

"It should be like this." Qu nodded: "At the beginning, his Taoism was completely ruined, but now not only his soul is immortal, but he can still maintain his human form. It is because he practiced evil ways. In the past hundred years, he did not know that he has killed many innocent people. I didn't tell you this before. , I just don’t want to add pressure to you, I originally wanted to solve it myself, but now he is staring at you, I think it’s better to tell you to make you a little more vigilant.”

Dou Cheng watched Qu Zhong quietly for a few minutes, then got up and went to the window to look at the sky.

"What are you doing?" Qu Zhong looked at him puzzled.

Only then did Dou Cheng sit back and said, "Let me see if I am still living in the world I am familiar with. Don't accidentally read your playbook of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio. Even Baojia Xianyemaojing came out. Why do I feel that this world is so mysterious?" Seeing Qu Zhong pursed his lips and remained silent, Dou Cheng abducted him again: "I'm actually quite curious, why did you appear at our place? You know, you Qu Zhong The ancestral grave is quite far away from us, and the surrounding area is so vast, even if you think our city is beautiful, beautiful, and outstanding, there is no need to rush to our unshielded area, right? So, why did you appear where? ?”
