Little Bosses and Little Monsters

Shu Jing was waiting for Tianwang to bring back today's ingredients, but Tianwang brought back a "prehistoric giant" in addition to the fish. After a brief surprise, Boss Shu felt that the friendship of the landlord should be done first, so he cordially invited Jiuying The husband sat down and asked Xiaohe to prepare a meal for one person.

"Mr. Jiuying is coming to the human world to play or to live here?"

He is friendly and approachable, but not overly enthusiastic. Mr. Shu's smile can hardly be stopped by anyone, as if a gust of warm wind is pouring into his brain. Mr. Jiuying thought dizzily that something was wrong, and then answered honestly: " I want to live here for a long time now.”

"It seems that Mr. Jiuying is very adaptable to life in the human world, very good."

Jiuying looked at him blankly: "You..."

"Well, what?" Shu Jing waited quietly with a smile on her face.

"How do you know that I am Jiuying?" As a human being, you shouldn't be able to tell that I am Jiuying at a glance, let alone know that I am Jiuying and still be so fearless and enthusiastic.

How Shu Jing recognized Jiuying, no one knows, except for Jiuying himself, no one cares, because Xiaohe doesn't care who you are, and Tianwang thinks that whatever Shu Jing does is reasonable, he can do anything. It should be taken for granted.

Shu Jing smiled. It seems that this is an ignorant Jiuying. Otherwise, the strange beasts who came to the human world, no matter how strong or weak, should know more or less the legend of the bookstore owner, and they should understand that this It's not unusual for a boss to recognize anyone.

He turned his questioning gaze to Tianwang, because now he found that this Mr. Jiuying, who didn't know anything, definitely didn't offer to come to "have a story" on his own initiative, so it could only be that Tianwang forced him to come. .

So Tianwang reported what he saw this morning truthfully, and at the end he had to make a speechless judgment: "This person who did things is really out of character, and he will squeeze out even a little bit of corpse energy."

"A person's ambition and greed have nothing to do with his ability. It is necessary to know that a multi-millionaire may also be a Grandet who is extremely stingy and does not want to miss a coin."

"=.="

Tianwang's expression was like this, because he couldn't understand what Grandet was.

Shu Jing couldn't help nagging again: "I told you to read more books on the third shelf to gain insight, so you won't be so ignorant and make people laugh in the future."

"Don't you think I don't know? It's full of juvenile books, and it hasn't been classified yet. There is Jane Eyre next to the father and son. The row below the celebrity biography is the famous Detective Conan. Last time a mother complained .”

"She should complain about her child's self-control."

The two argued as if no one was around, as if Jiuying didn't exist, which made Jiuying very comfortable.

Xiaohe quickly served the finished lunch. The crucian carp was stewed with bamboo shoots to make a pot of milky white soup. It was boiled until the juice was thick and the meat was rotten, with a layer of oil on the surface. secretion.

well.

Now even if Shu Jing and the others think of Jiuying, the other party has no time to talk to them.

When Shu Jing and Tian Wang reacted, the pot of crucian carp soup was half empty, and Xiao Youji stood on Xiao He's shoulder and jumped anxiously.

What nonsense are you talking about, the food is all robbed!He hasn't eaten a bite yet!

Xiaohe silently made a silent gesture, and pointed to the kitchen, implying that a small stove has been reserved for him.Xiaoyouji squatted back understandingly, while gloating at Tianwang.

This big black dog is used to being domineering and domineering. In "There Is a Story", no one can snatch food from him. Today there is a strong enemy, so you have to show him something.

Tian Wang stared at a pair of lacquer-like pupils.

"Aren't you too impolite?!"

Jiu Ying, who has not dealt with people for many years and naturally does not know what politeness is, swallowed a mouthful of food, and then asked slowly, "Didn't this gentleman invite me to sit down just now?"

Since he invited people to lunch, what's wrong with him eating these?

"Then you can't see the free lunch and eat it all the time?"

"I don't have anything to worry about. I've just started to eat."

"..."

Jiuying calmly looked back at the speechless gazes of the three, he was not exaggerating, these were only at the level of pre-dinner snacks in terms of his appetite.

Soon, they knew that Jiuying was telling the truth, because after eating half a pot of fish, four side dishes, and six bowls of rice, Jiuying's expression did not change, and he even touched his flat belly with a look of unsatisfactory expression. .

"Let's go here."

Shu Jing and Tian Wang, who had been staring numbly at him for a long time, looked at the rice cooker, which couldn't scrape off any residue, and said, "..."

It's true that he can only go here, it's not that he can't eat anymore, it's true that there is nothing for him to eat anymore.

Putting down the chopsticks, Jiuying stared at Xiaohe sincerely: "This Miss Gui's cooking skills are really excellent. I have any questions about cooking in the future. May I come to ask you for advice?"

His expression was too serious, and his tone was firm and meticulous, as hard as his facial lines, so it didn't look like a request at all, like a threat from Chiguoguo.

The girl and the little macaque on her shoulders stiffened under such gazes.

Youyou, who has always been a relative, pursed his mouth, and Gululu's round eyes were full of water and glints.

Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet.

Shu Jing let out a "haha" and lowered his voice: "Xiaohe, take Youji down."

Before the words could hit her feet, the girl had already disappeared at the kitchen door.

Jiuying, who was very familiar with that fearful gaze, didn't know that he had invisibly frightened the little animal again. He lowered his head and retracted into the shell again.

"Mr. Jiuying, don't worry about it too much, Youjie is young and ignorant."

"You don't need to comfort me, I know, it's my fault, I always scare others."

Only then did Shu Jing realize that Jiuying was guilty, and he was slightly surprised: "What does it have to do with you? Youji is greedy, just find a chance to let Xiaohe take it to open a small stove, where is there anything to scare?"

Jiuying was stunned: "It... I saw it just now, it was obviously very afraid of me."

"Hahaha, that's its usual trick. We don't take it seriously. If you don't believe me, go to the kitchen window and have a look."

Jiuying walked to the window silently, poked half of his face to look in, Xiaohe brought out a bowl of fresh fish soup, and picked out the fish to feed Youji, Xiao Youji squatted on the stove, clapping his hands and cheering excitedly , there is no trace of the cowardly and pitiful look just now.

"..."

Looking at Jiuying who was sitting back at the table with dull eyes, Shu Jing brewed a pot of tea, and he already knew where the knot in Mr. Jiuying's heart was.

"People are always used to filling in the gaps that they don't understand with subjective assumptions. As much as you hide, the gap will naturally be as big. Mr. Jiuying doesn't have to be troubled by this, he is willing to accept yours, willing For those who are close to you, even if they only see that point, they can still see the light shining in it, but for those who are unwilling to accept you, even if this whole heart is held in their hands, in their eyes, it is nothing more than a handful of black mud."

Jiuying stared at him blankly.

Shu Jing poured the teacup for him, and the clear and light tea warmed the noodles, reflecting the long smile on the corner of the man's mouth.

Moisture steamed in the air between them, covering the bluegrass behind each other with a layer of tulle.

No one in this room is afraid of him, not only is not afraid of him, but they can also make jokes and tricks. The name "Jiuying" is like any ordinary name suddenly, and all colors fade away, leaving only A gray and white huge empty shell.

Jiuying didn't know how he drank that bowl of tea.

He sighed after drinking anyway.

It's so delicious, the leaves of the demon world can't make such delicious water.

After making a large bowl of chicken soup, the years were quiet for a while, and the three of them were relatively silent, sharing the warm sun in the winter afternoon and the time when they relaxed their pace.

Ok……

Did you forget something?

Shu Jing asked blankly: "By the way, why did Mr. Jiuying come to the shop?"

So the three of them remembered, oh, he didn't come here as a guest, let alone for dinner and tea, he was arrested by Tianwang as a suspect.

Now that I recalled the source, it is natural to get down to business.

"Where's the child's body?"

Without even thinking about it, Tianwang responded, "You're still lying there."

"You just leave a corpse where someone might see it at any time?!"

"..."

It was like a farce that unfolded without warning and ended in a hurry. They were lucky. After a leisurely meal and afternoon tea, the body of the boy who had been exposed for a long time also disappeared. It has not been discovered yet.

The world is moved, this corner is indeed very remote.

The body was smuggled back, the prelude to petty bourgeois literature and art came to an end, and the feature film was finally released.

The dry skin of the dead body was brushed lightly with the fingertips, like a piece of rough sandpaper.

It is rare for Shu Jing to have a nick between his brows.

This is not only because the other party is cold-blooded and cruel, but also because this scene is very familiar.

Standing up, Shu Jing took the wet towel from Tianwang and wiped her jade-like fingers.

"I have never seen a strange beast that behaves like this. According to what Tianwang said, this boy has been dead for many days, and the body is of no use value. Why did the other party take so much trouble to move him from the suburbs to the city?" Jiuying also asked. Analyzing the case seriously.

Knowing Shu Jing like Tian Wang, he naturally felt the subtle changes in his emotions.

"What's the matter, do you know the murderer?"

Sometimes Tian Wang's intuition really sees blood, and Shu Jing's face becomes imperceptibly pale.

"Hou Qing..."

"What?" Tian Wang frowned, how could this have something to do with Hou Qing again.

"Hou Qing hasn't come for a few days?"

Tianwang thought about it for a while: "I haven't seen him since Banqiao Village."

"The drawer on the left of my desk is the second from the top. There is a raw rhinoceros horn in it. Go get it for me and light it."

Tianwang did as he said.

Looking at the piece of raw rhinoceros horn he took, Jiuying raised his eyebrows: "Raw rhinoceros has a strange fragrance, people can communicate with ghosts, do you want to summon the soul?"

Shu Jing shook his head, if he was just summoning souls, why should he give birth to rhinoceros.He has kept this raw rhinoceros by his side for hundreds of years, but he has never used it, because he has never taken the initiative to find Hou Qing, because that person has not appeared for thousands of years.

Ying Gou appeared, so as for the general, his return may not be far away.
