Chapter 36
Chen Xiaoluo was unmoved: "According to what you mean, you want him to be a lonely ghost all the time?"
Mu Guan ran in front of Chen Xiaoluo, opened his arms to block her way, with a stubborn expression on his face: "What's wrong with lonely souls and wild ghosts!"
Chen Xiaoluo laughed when he heard that, and asked him: "What's so good about it?"
Hearing this, Mu Guan was at a loss for words for a while.
Lonely ghosts are wandering with nowhere to go, and they can't even get a paper money during the New Year's festival. They look like homeless people in the world. The streets are brightly lit, and there is no one related to them.
Really... not much better.
He couldn't help lowering his head, and after a while, stammered: "Anyway, anyway, you can't take him away."
Chen Xiaoluo clicked his tongue and suggested: "Why don't you go with me."
"Where are you going? Old Chen's house? Are you joking?" Mu Guan refused, with an expression that you don't want to make fun of me.
Chen Xiaoluo blinked, and whispered to himself: "I have persuaded you three times."
Mu Guan didn't hear clearly: "What?"
In the next moment, Chen Xiaoluo slashed his neck with a knife, Mu Guan was caught off guard and was knocked unconscious, and fell peacefully on the ground.
Chen Xiaoluo raised his foot and wanted to leave, after thinking for a while, he took out two talismans to avoid ghosts, stuffed them into Mu Guan's pocket, and then beckoned Su Shen to leave.
There are quite a lot of little ghosts in this forest, Mu Guan lost Chen Jingling's protection, there is no guarantee that these ghosts will not harm him, it is better to take some protection.
When they came, one was pulled and the other flew over, which was faster.
When leaving, Su Shen was about to float back, but Chen Xiaoluo stopped him, thinking it was impossible.
Chen Xiaoluo: "We have a rule that you can't fly around when you have nothing to do."
Su Shen rolled his eyes: "You are sick."
Chen Xiaoluo: "There's nothing wrong with walking, it can also exercise your body."
"You go, I won't go either, I want to fly." Saying that, Su Shen floated lightly.
Chen Xiaoluo, who obeyed the family rules, had no choice but to walk out of the mountain step by step.
Due to restraints, Su Shenfei was not far away, so he could only follow Chen Xiaoluo's speed and spin in circles. At first glance, it looked like Chen Xiaoluo was flying a humanoid kite.
After walking for about half an hour, Su couldn't take it anymore, and started to get mad: "Chen Xiaoluo! Can you do it! You have to go to the New Year!" As a ghost, I have never been so aggrieved in my life.
Chen Xiaoluo beat a snake that was attacking her into the air with the handle of the knife, and said slowly, "You have a bad temper, girl."
Su Shen rolled his big eyes, muttered something, and swooped upwards.
The restraint went beyond the distance and suddenly tightened, Chen Xiaoluo was suspended in the air.
Chen Xiaoluo: "Hello!"
Su Shen grabbed the restraint, swung it around a few times, wrapped Chen Xiaoluo up, and flew upwards for a while.
"That's not a violation."
Chen Xiaoluo's vision is quite good, under his feet is a lush tree canopy, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds, the blue sky is thousands of miles away.She didn't resist, rather it was the result she expected, so she raised her neck and said to Su Shen above her head: "Fly slowly, you will feel uncomfortable when I catch a cold."
Su Shen didn't know that he was being tricked, he muttered "Got it", and flew slowly.
Back in the city, Chen Xiaoluo was not in a hurry to go back, she was so tired that she planned to sleep with him for a day and a night.
Su Shen was also very tired, yelling that he had to eat alone to get better, so Chen Xiaoluo sneaked him to a hot pot buffet.
Since there are only a few hot pot buffets in Mawu City, there is no pressure to introvert, and the dishes seem to be somewhat manageable.
The replenishment is not timely, the variety is single, and the taste is not very good. It can be said that it is the same as what Chen Xiaoluo has eaten in the past.
But fortunately, Su Shen had never eaten it, her eyes lit up as soon as she came in, and after Chen Xiaoluo told her that she could eat whatever she wanted, it was as if she had entered heaven.
The rectangular table for four was filled with all kinds of food, small cakes, sauced chicken legs, seafood soup, sushi rolls, and various slices of raw meat, all of which belonged to Su Shen alone, with a large pile of finished plates beside him.
Chen Xiaoluo ate his own fruit slowly, keeping his eyes on Su Shen.
Su Shen puffed his cheeks, and took time out of his busy schedule to talk to her: "These are all mine, you have to get them yourself."
Chen Xiaoluo didn't answer, she suddenly had the idea to feed Su Shen.
This is not much better than some fake food broadcasts that vomit while eating. The key point is that Su Shen is not picky about eaters, he can eat anything.
Definitely make money!
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaoluo looked at Su Shen with kinder eyes.
Su Shen didn't know why, so he stuffed a whole raw starfish into his mouth and chewed it.
"This thing is so strange." Su Shen couldn't speak clearly.
Chen Xiaoluo: "..."
"You can't eat like this." Chen Xiaoluo said: "The human world is not happy to eat raw."
Su Shen tilted his head, pointing at a piece of sashimi sushi.
"...At least starfish can't."
Su Shen swallowed the starfish hard, half understanding: "Oh~"
During the two-hour dining time, Su Shen ate for two hours and emptied the barbecue freezer several times. When he left, the buffet owner almost cried with joy, and kindly expressed the hope that they would not come again in the future.
When he went out from the shop, Su Shen patted his belly in satisfaction, and the sunlight above his head felt quite pleasing to the eye.
The next day, they set foot on the car for the return journey.
The Chen family's old house is relatively far away, and if you want to go back, you have to take a plane.
The airports in each city are different, but there is no shortage of specialty stores and small restaurants in each airport.
Su Shen followed behind Chen Xiaoluo and looked left and right, with longing in his eyes.
"Chen Xiaoluo." When passing by a roasted pigeon shop, Su Shen finally couldn't bear it anymore.
It's not her fault. In order to attract customers, the shop's oven is placed at the door, a glass oven, and the ruddy and shiny roasted pigeons are slowly turning around inside. Passing by, the aroma goes straight into the nose.
Chen Xiaoluo frowned: "I just know how to eat."
"It's really fragrant, don't you think?"
The clerk of the roasted pigeon is a young man. Hearing their conversation, he said with a smile: "It's delicious, it tastes even better when you eat it. Our pigeon is a specialty of Mawu, and it can't be tasted anywhere else. How many to try?"
Su Shen asked Chen Xiaoluo: "How many to try?"
Chen Xiaoluo wanted to refuse at first, but on second thought, she hadn't bought anything when she returned to the old Chen's house this time, and the Chen family would pick her up when she got off the plane.
She asked, "How much?"
The clerk said: "300 two, four hundred and three, the price is affordable, and I will never cheat you."
Su Shen didn't understand prices, and when he heard that the price was affordable, he quickly said to Chen Xiaoluo: "Four hundred and three! Buy three, he said it's very affordable!"
Chen Xiaoluo helped his forehead, and said helplessly, "One is more than 100, you are not worth the price, is this called benefit?"
She reached out and grabbed Su Shen's wrist, "Let's go."
Her original intention was to take Su Shen to buy something outside, and there were still several hours before take-off, and there was time to go back and forth, but Su Shen didn't think so, she thought Chen Xiaoluo wouldn't buy it, so she struggled with her hands and feet: "But isn't this a special product? ? He said it's cheap and won't lie...Wait, why don't you deduct it from my salary and I'll pay in advance..."
Shouting and rolling like a brat asking her parents to buy toys, Chen Xiaoluo felt that if conditions allowed, she could just lie down on the ground and act foolishly.
...how should I put it, she lost all her face.
"Advance ghost! You have already advanced 500 years later, give me a part-time job for the rest of your life!" Chen Xiaoluo aggressively dragged her away.
When Su Shen heard this, he immediately said, "You're lying to a ghost, how could I have spent so much money!"
"You are angry with me for the mental damage fee." Chen Xiaoluo turned around with a smile and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry I bought it for you."
"The store is clearly behind!" Su Shen said that he was a smart group, so don't try to lie to her.
Chen Xiaoluo had no choice but to explain to her: "Go outside to buy, the food outside is more delicious."
Sure enough, Su Shen began to let go, but because Chen Xiaoluo had too many bad deeds, she was a little bit disbelieving: "Really?"
Chen Xiaoluo didn't even think about it: "It's fake."
Su Shen: "!!!"
Su Shen struggled: "Let me go back! I want to eat roasted squab! Roasted! Suckling! Pigeon ehhhhh..."
Chen Xiaoluo strangled her neck and covered her mouth, and forcibly dragged her away.
When dragging Su Shen into the taxi, the driver was taken aback, "What's the matter?"
Su Shen grabbed Chen Xiaoluo's arm with both hands, seized the opportunity and shouted: "Kidnapping! This is kidnapping!" She found out that Chen Xiaoluo didn't like being noticed, and tried to cause some trouble for her.
"Your roast pigeon is gone."
"!" Su Shen said, "Are you really going to buy roasted pigeons?"
Chen Xiaoluo glared at her: "Really."
Su took a deep breath, and obediently got into the car.
The attitude changed so quickly that the driver was taken aback for a while, and even forgot about his job for a while.
After waiting for a long time without seeing anything, Su Shen said unwillingly, "Let's go, Master."
"Oh, yes." The driver started the car and said with emotion, "You two have such a good relationship."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaoluo and Su Shen were stunned at the same time. They looked at each other, and they both saw disgust in each other's eyes. At the same time, they turned their heads and refused to look at each other.
Su Shen: "Bah! Who has a good relationship with her."
Chen Xiaoluo nodded again and again: "That's right."
The driver let out two awkward laughs: "Okay, so where are we going?"
Chen Xiaoluo rummaged through her mobile phone for a long time, found the shop with the best rating for roasted pigeons, and showed it to the master: "Here, go buy some special products, I heard they are delicious."
The driver nodded: "That's true, let me tell you, don't look at the small space in Mawu, but when it comes to this roasted pigeon, it's really delicious..."
Maybe he was a talkative person, or maybe the audience was too supportive. The driver introduced it seriously at first, and then he started to talk about it, and he just described the roasted pigeon as a peerless delicacy handed down from the Classic of Mountains and Seas. This is the only place where the pigeons in the world are authentic. No other water and soil can produce this taste. It seems that eating one bite can instantly become a fairy. Su Shen no doubts that there is him, so he nodded repeatedly, almost drooling when he heard it.
Chen Xiaoluo lacked interest and kept staring out the window in a daze.
She is going back to the Chen family's old house, one reason is to bring Chen Jingling back, and the other reason is that the triennial "dust cleansing feast" is about to start.
The explanation is probably similar to going home during the New Year, but it is mandatory. On this day, all members of the Chen family must come back no matter where they are, gather together to burn incense and worship, and tell each other what they have seen and heard. By the way, have a reunion dinner.The reason why this day was set is because the Chen family has a special profession, and it is inevitable that they will be contaminated with resentment over the years, and the Xichen Banquet is a gathering of the whole family, and a special person will do things to clear away these filthy resentments, so it was renamed "Xianchen Banquet" feast."
Later, with the changes of the times and the continuous innovation and upgrading of ghost exorcism technology, some people changed their careers, and some of the remaining family inheritors also had their own "cleaning dust" methods, but the tradition of reunion every three years has been preserved. Today, It is almost the same as the gate of the community where the village was converted into a building.
I don't know how many branches get together, fighting openly and secretly, talking with guns and clubs, discussing business on the spot, bragging and showing off, anyway.
Every time Chen Xiaoluo participates, she has a strange feeling of watching monkeys on the spot. Sometimes others are monkeys, and sometimes she herself is a monkey.
And this year, she will probably turn into a monkey. As for the reason——
She moved her eyes to Su Shen beside him, who was leaning forward, holding the back of the driver's seat with shining eyes, talking non-stop excitedly, just like a kindergartener who came out to play with his parents.
The driver was also talking very vigorously, and the car was full of cheerful air.
When she arrived at the place, Chen Xiaoluo asked the driver to wait for her, and then went back after shopping.
The driver readily agreed.
Then she bought ten of them.
Su Shen said happily: "So you are a good person!"
Chen Xiaoluo seemed to have just thought of her, so she said oh, and asked the shopkeeper, "Do you sell half a carcass, please?"
"Huh?" Su Shen was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that she was so angry that she grabbed Chen Xiaoluo's shoulders with both hands, jumped up, and the whole ghost hung on Chen Xiaoluo like eight fish: "It's too much, I don't want half of it, I want to eat that much!"
Chen Xiaoluo didn't expect her to come out like this. She fluttered and twisted like a frightened goose, and she was bound to get Su Shen down: "Don't grab my hair, are you a child? Get off!!!"
Su Shen followed Chen Xiaoluo's example and strangled Chen Xiaoluo's neck with his backhand: "I'm a child, what are you? Don't be a person, you can even lie to a child!"
Chen Xiaoluo felt like he was about to suffocate.
In the end, the farce ended with Su Shen getting three roasted pigeons.
Back in the car, the driver saw that Su Shen was carrying three boxes, and quickly asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
Su Shen took one apart, happily took a bite, and then his expression became strange.
She looked at the expectant driver, then at the pigeon in her hand, and said aggrievedly, "It's not as delicious as I imagined."
"No way." The driver didn't believe it: "Is it not to your taste?"
Su Shen frowned: "It's not as delicious as you said, and it's not at all what you imagined."
"I can't. Is there something wrong with the store you bought? I'll recommend another store to you. It's only half an hour away in the north of the city. That store is absolutely..."
Chen Xiaoluo's alarm rang loudly, and the driver made it clear that this was the rhythm of cheating her of money.
"Huh?" Chen Xiaoluo uttered a questioning nasal voice, leaned in front of Su Shen, and before Su Shen could react, he took a bite at the place where she had bitten.
"Don't steal my pigeons." Su Shen exclaimed, and changed the roasted pigeon to a hand far away from Chen Xiaoluo.
One thing to say, the pigeon is really good, it is still hot just out of the oven, the outside is crispy and the inside is tender and juicy, Chen Xiaoluo slurred his words while chewing: "It's okay, don't you think it's delicious?"
"It's not that it's not delicious, it's that it's not as tasty as expected." Seeing Chen Xiaoluo leaning back against the car door and keeping away from her, Su Shen felt relieved.
"Maybe your expectations are set too high." Chen Xiaoluo raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.
"Really?" Su Shen pursed the corners of his lips, and said to the driver, "Master, you can just say that it's almost as good as roast chicken. It's not that I don't like roast chicken."
The driver's eyes widened: "Are you kidding? How can roast chicken compare to roast pigeon! If you think it's not delicious, it must be a problem with the store. The store in the north of the city is more authentic than this."
Su Shen also stared: "What do you mean by that? Why do you look down on roast chicken!"
The driver choked and emphasized: "I don't look down on roasted chicken, but roasted pigeon must be better than roasted chicken."
"No, the taste is about the same."
"Everyone has their own taste." The driver didn't argue with Su Shen: "Some people just like roasted pigeon."
"The taste is not very rich, there is no lingering aftertaste for three days, and there is no indulging in it and forgetting all the troubles in the world after one bite."
The driver did not expect this person to be so serious: "...This is not an exaggerated metaphor."
Su Shen said with a blank expression, "Lie to me, I'm far behind now."
Driver: "...No, why is my little sister so honest?"
Su Shen felt that this person was blaming him, and said unhappily: "What do you mean by that? You mean you were right to lie to me, but it was my fault if I believed it?"
"What? No, I didn't lie to you."
Su Shen became even more angry, and he stopped eating the pigeon, and put it aside: "Do you think I'm stupid?!"
The driver saw that the momentum was wrong, and his tone sank: "Do you understand the proper rendering? Exaggeration is okay, you little girl looks good, but I can't explain why you are so angry."
Su Shen: "Why can't you explain it clearly? When you said that the pigeon is an ancient mythical beast, you didn't make it clear. When you lied, you said it clearly, but you couldn't tell the truth."
The driver said: "You don't understand what degree you have, or how you exaggerate the metaphors. You have studied the nine-year compulsory education for several years."
"Don't talk about anything else with me," Su Shen didn't understand the word education, and he didn't understand what nine-year compulsory education is, but it's not important: "What you're talking about now is that you lied to me. I apologize."
……
Chen Xiaoluo looked at the passing scenery outside the car window, leaned to the side and touched his nose.
As long as Su Shen doesn't eat people, and doesn't turn into a ghost to scare people in public, the rest of the things are trivial and not a big problem.
The driver and Su Shen quarreled all the way. They chatted happily when they came here, and they quarreled fiercely on the way back. The driver thought that Su Shen was not smart and was a little girl. He apologized for boasting about the roasted pigeons, and even stopped halfway to let them get off.
There are no shops in front of the village and no shops in the back of this section of the road. There is less traffic and it is not easy to take a taxi. Chen Xiaoluo sighed and patted Su Shen on the shoulder.
Su Shen didn't want to get out of the car, because the driver hadn't apologized to her yet. When Chen Xiaoluo patted her, she suddenly turned her head, twisted her neck nearly 180 degrees, and said aggressively, "What are you doing?"
This angle is really weird for normal people. The driver was stunned when he saw it from the rearview mirror.
Chen Xiaoluo pinched Su Shen's soft face, smiled at her, then covered Su Shen's face with both hands, and twisted her head back from another direction.
"Go on," she said.
Su Shen didn't understand why, so Chen Xiaoluo lost his mind again, fixed his eyes on the driver in front of him, and continued to say what he hadn't finished: "Apologize to me!"
The driver's face was very exciting, turning green and pale for a while, he held back for a while, and suddenly said loudly: "I'm sorry!!"
Su Shen was startled by his sudden raised voice, and said, "Why are you so loud!"
The driver was terrified, and said with a trembling voice, "Yes, I'm sorry."
"Why are you stuttering?" Su Shen didn't notice it, and didn't understand why a good person could stutter as much as he said.
"I, I..." The driver was about to cry.
Chen Xiaoluo glanced at the phone: "It's almost boarding time."
"I see, let's go now, I will definitely arrive on time." Saying that, the driver hurriedly started the car.
Chen Xiaoluo sighed, and noticed that the driver stepped on the accelerator and rushed forward, reminding: "Be careful, there is still time for normal driving."
The driver didn't speak, his face turned pale, and he gripped the steering wheel tightly, but the car immediately slowed down.
The car finally fell silent.
Su Shen was extremely depressed, she was a ghost, and she was extremely sensitive to fear. She knew that the driver was afraid, so she turned to Chen Xiaoluo and said, "You scared him, and he hasn't apologized to me sincerely, I don't know you I was wrong."
After the words fell, the driver shivered insignificantly.
Chen Xiaoluo asked him: "Did you hear that, where did you go wrong?"
"No, I shouldn't have lied, I lied to this aunt." The driver admitted his mistake with a very positive attitude, which was completely different from the previous scolding.
"Do you still dare in the future?"
"Don't dare, never dare again."
Chen Xiaoluo said to Su Shen again: "Look, he knew he was wrong."
"It's different!" Su Shen puffed up his cheeks, looking unhappy.
"Don't eat roast squab, it won't taste good when it's cold."
"He didn't really apologize at all, he was just scared of me."
"No," the driver's throat rolled, and his trembling arms revealed his emotions at this time: "I really know that I was wrong, really, I was trying to save face just now, please believe me."
The words spoken by the person concerned are obviously more convincing than Chen Xiaoluo, Su Shen said: "Really?"
The driver hurriedly said: "It can't be true anymore! I swear!"
"Okay." Chen Xiaoluo reluctantly believed it.
When arriving at the airport, Chen Xiaoluo paid the bill, but the driver refused to accept it.
"Isn't it a meter?" Chen Xiaoluo turned sideways to look at the meter.
"No, no, no," the driver quickly stood up and said, "I can't collect money here, just treat it as a friend."
Chen Xiaoluo laughed out loud: "Make friends, are you sure?"
The driver also realized that having an "abnormal" friend might not be a good thing. He glanced at Su Shen in fear, but the words were out of his mouth, and he didn't know what to do.
"Pay online," Chen Xiaoluo said, "Don't worry, you won't pay Mingbi, but today's matter can't be revealed, so keep it secret for us, can you?"
How dare the driver say no.
After paying the money, watching the taxi leave as quickly as if fleeing, Chen Xiaoluo and Su Shen turned around and queued up at the ticket gate.
The line is very long, you have to wait a while.
Su Shen suddenly said: "I still think he is just afraid."
"It's enough to achieve the goal, why do you have to change people's hearts." Chen Xiaoluo replied to her: "It's not an important person."
Su Shen said: "It's so hypocritical."
Chen Xiaoluo said strangely: "I heard you right, in your capacity, you actually feel that you are hypocritical."
