Push the ghost talker back

Judging from the interface on the phone screen, the young man seemed to be running a live broadcast room. In the upper left corner, the number of viewers displayed was 8.

So the audience grandparents he mentioned are actually only eight people.

After Lu Mingran moved closer to the phone, his face just appeared in the camera.Although the darkness in the building made it difficult to see clearly, the audience realized that he was not the young man.

At first, there were only a few barrages floating by:

"Hey, where's Xiao Jiu?"

"...The one who screamed so badly just now, who can still afford Cheng Zhuan He, couldn't be Xiao Jiu?"

Later, I don't know who ran outside and said what, and the number of audience suddenly increased.When Lu Mingran was still in a daze, the content of the barrage suddenly changed:

"Brother, who are you?"

"I was brought here by my friend Amway. I heard that your anchor is performing screams."

"Ahhh... little brother, are you a ghost?"

Looking at these bullet screens and the title of "Night Exploration of Dexing Mansion" in the live broadcast room, Lu Mingran understood a little at this moment. It turned out that the young man was engaged in the live broadcast of supernatural adventures.To be honest, his mental quality is worse than that of Lu Mingran, no wonder there are only so few people watching.

Faced with more and more people's inquiries and jokes, Lu Mingran thought about it, and decided to help this little brother to make things right first.After all, he was the one who scared people away.

Cough... After clearing his throat, Lu Mingran smiled into the phone, although he was also very scared, his voice trembling:

"Hi everyone, I'm not a ghost, I'm Xiaojiu's assistant, and today I'm going to do a live broadcast with him."

Old viewers said that Xiao Jiu was so poor that it was impossible to have any assistants, but other barrages quickly overwhelmed those words: "What about Xiao Jiu? Where did he go?"

"He screamed so badly just now, are you guys acting together?"

"Oh, just now we cooperated to warm up the atmosphere."

After saying this, Lu Mingran wanted to turn off the live broadcast, but the audience suddenly became interested:

"Then little assistant, take us around first!"

Lu Mingran: ...I refuse.

However, the audience was really enthusiastic. All kinds of gifts kept coming, and the anchor gained a lot of fans. In desperation, Lu Mingran insisted:

"Then, turn around for a while?"

Later, Lu Mingran was apparently helping the young man broadcast the live broadcast, but in fact, he was looking for him by taking the opportunity of strolling.There are still some homeless people in this building, and some of them are not in a good state of mind, but they are much scarier than ghosts.

So, Lu Mingran held up his mobile phone and just climbed up and down, strolling around, and at the suggestion of fans, he turned around all the places where the accident happened in the legend.

Now Lu Mingran is carrying a female ghost on his back, and he is inexplicably bolder, or he is taking pleasure in suffering.

Forget it, if something happens, let that ghost fight with the one on him first, and he will just watch the show.

------

The live broadcast is still going on, and the one that scares the audience the most is probably the elevator on the first floor. This elevator is an unfinished product left over. It is said that it will go up and down by itself in the middle of the night without electricity.Lu Mingran approached the elevator with his mobile phone in his hands, and from time to time someone would post a barrage saying that the elevator was moving.

"Little assistant, let's go over there and take a look!"

Everyone thought of another place and urged Lu Mingran excitedly.

Lu Mingran was a little bit dumbfounded.He knew that there was a female ghost lying on his back. From his current angle, the female ghost's face should be facing the camera.If they could see it, they would probably be so scared that they would forget how to write the words Dexing Building.

Well, the current situation is that a host with a ghost on his back leads the audience to look for ghosts in unfinished buildings. Lu Mingran is really curious about how the female ghost on his back is feeling at the moment.

Then Lu Mingran glanced at the number of viewers, and found that it had exceeded [-].

And at this moment, he finally saw the young man.The man was squatting in a room on the first floor, flirting with a disheveled bum.

The reason was that Xiao Jiu ran hastily and accidentally broke into the territory of the homeless man. The old man muttered and scolded non-stop, but Xiao Jiu didn't seem to understand what the old man was saying at all.

Well, people found it.

"Everyone in the audience, our live broadcast tonight is here first, everyone go to bed early, good night."

Lu Mingran imitated Xiao Jiu's tone, and found a random reason to stop the live broadcast.The viewers were still not enjoying themselves, and they stayed in the live broadcast room one by one, refusing to leave, and some people shouted, "Little assistant, are you married? I can."

But Lu Mingran didn't look at these, he strode towards that poor little Jiu.Fortunately, Xiao Jiu didn't run away when she saw him this time, but hugged his leg like a life-saving straw.

"I'm sorry, sir, I'll take him away first."

Lu Mingran and the old man behind him kept talking softly, and finally dragged Xiao Jiu out of Dexing Building.

The air outside is much better, the moon is bright and the wind is clear, and the atmosphere is not so oppressive.Xiao Jiu, who was still in shock, sat on a brick and flicked her mobile phone, her eyes widened again:

"One, more than 1 people? Fuck, there are still more than 1 people staying in my live broadcast room after the end?"

And there are so many people brushing about the handsome little assistant.Can you see people's faces clearly?Wait, who is the little assistant?

Xiao Jiu looked at Lu Mingran.

"Yes, it's all due to me," Lu Mingran said with a smile, "Just now I told them that I am your assistant."

Xiao Jiu was very clever, and realized that Lu Mingran was helping him smooth things over, so he laughed twice:

"It would be great if you were really my assistant."

This person dared to stay alone in Dexing Building until midnight, and not only did not run away when he saw him, but he also helped live broadcast. Xiao Jiu really wanted to accept him.

However, Lu Mingran is essentially cowardly:

"No, I'm timid, I can't do this kind of work."

When he said this, Lu Mingran was observing Xiao Jiu.This man was wearing a simple coat and jeans, with disheveled hair, and judging from his obviously expensive shoes, he was a boy of eighteen to nine years old who was spoiled by his family.

And what Lu Mingran cares most about is undoubtedly the red string around Xiao Jiu's neck, under which a piece of ruby ​​can be seen faintly.This thing looks the same as the ancient jade worn by Lu Mingran, and it has a lot of background.

No wonder the clue is here, so there is such a person waiting for him tonight.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Mingran remained calm.He looked at Xiao Jiu and said:

"I'm Lu Mingran. I heard they call you Xiao Jiu."

"Well, you can call me Xiao Jiu, I'm used to people calling me that."

"Then," Lu Mingran smiled like a fox, "Xiao Jiu, do you need me to take you home?"

"I think you look like you sneaked out of the house."

In fact, Lu Mingran was guessing wildly, but seeing Xiao Jiu's face suddenly froze, he knew that he was right.

So Lu Mingran took advantage of the victory and pursued:

"How? Do you need my cooperation?"

------------

Xiao Jiu's home was on the other side of the city, and the two of them struggled for half an hour before rushing over.

On the way, the system asked Lu Mingran, "Why do you always think about going to someone else's house?"

Lu Mingran replied: "Because I am a small cabbage in the field, pitiful and helpless."

Later, outside his courtyard, Xiao Jiu grabbed Lu Mingran's sleeve, spoke to him, and told him:

"I live with my aunt. My aunt has poisonous eyes. You must act like one."

"I know, don't worry."

They talked a lot, but the two of them walked along the wall, stooping like thieves all the way, until they entered the yard, and then they pushed each other straight up and walked.

Then, the door of the house slammed open, caught off guard.

Standing at the door was a mild-mannered woman in her 40s.She is very gentle and elegant, but her eyes like autumn water are shining with the light that can only be seen on a blade.

Seeing that Xiao Jiu's legs were going limp and about to be unable to hold on, Lu Mingran hurriedly called "Auntie".

"Auntie, I was malnourished and passed out on the road. It was Xiaojiu who helped me."

Fortunately, Lu Mingran still memorized the lines.

This is the vulgar script they have studied for so long, a good boy who is eager to help others.To be honest, Lu Mingran felt that the chances of this acting being a failure were too great, he was a good young man, he looked like he was malnourished.

However, when Xiaojiu's aunt turned her gaze to Lu Mingran, she was frightened: "You, come in!"

Um?Did something happen?

Lu Mingran looked at Xiao Jiu puzzled, but Xiao Jiu's reaction was bigger than her aunt's, and she pushed Lu Mingran into the house.

In the mirror at the entrance, Lu Mingran caught a glimpse of his current appearance.

Compared with a few hours ago, his appearance suddenly changed drastically.

It's over, it's really malnourished.

No, more than just malnutrition, it looks like he could be in the mortuary right now just by covering his face with a white cloth.

Seeing Lu Mingran like this, the aunt couldn't care less about cleaning up her nephew, and went to the kitchen to serve tonight's hot soup and meals, sighing while she was busy: "Sin, you child, why are your lips so white that you don't even have a trace of blood."

Lu Mingran lowered his head, he knew it was because of that female ghost.

This is still the first day.Lu Mingran couldn't imagine what he would look like on the seventh day, he probably would have been lying in the grave by then.

On the other side, Xiao Jiu was sitting beside Lu Mingran, her expression suddenly became a little weird, her eyes kept glancing back and forth at Lu Mingran.Lu Mingran could feel that this was not concern, but a concern mixed with inquiry.

Lu Mingran pretended not to notice Xiao Jiu's weirdness, and drank the soup prepared by his aunt first.

"Your name is Lu Mingran, right?" Auntie took off her apron and walked over, looking at him with concern, "Judging from your accent, it doesn't look like a local."

"Well, I came from out of town, but I was robbed."

"Don't worry, I'll leave after a while."

Seeing that Lu Mingran was so pitiful and yet so polite, the aunt softened all of a sudden, pressed him directly, and said repeatedly:

"Hey, it's so late, where do you want to go alone, just stay at my house for one night, and I will take you to call the police tomorrow."

As she said that, the aunt glanced at Xiao Jiu: "Xiao Lu will sleep in your room tonight."

"Ah?" Xiao Jiu's expression was still weird.

"Ah, what, you brought the man, and you rescued him. You two should go to bed quickly after you finish your soup and dinner."

Xiao Jiu had no choice but to nod.

As for Lu Mingran, he was grateful on the surface, but he was really grateful in his heart, and his emotions were even stronger.

Lu Mingran was so moved!It's the third world, and finally someone is willing to let him sleep on the bed!

----------

Only my aunt and Xiaojiu are at home now.Lu Mingran followed Xiao Jiu up to the second floor, and went to sleep in his room.

Xiao Jiu was indeed eighteen or nine years old, and there were still schoolbags and a stack of books on the table in the room.Although he claimed to have finished the college entrance examination, Lu Mingran could understand why his aunt was so worried about him.

This kid is really worrying.

It was already very late, and it was already one o'clock at night after the two of them washed up.Xiao Jiu's bed was huge, and the two of them lay down and turned off the light not long after.

The light was off, but Lu Mingran did not fall asleep.He was lying on the bed, really imagining himself as a cabbage.

By the way, what is the hero doing now?Lu Mingran turned over his phone and took a look, only to see that the last time he chatted with the hero was a month ago.

Maybe this is why the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. Even if we don't contact each other for a few months, we can still be the same as before when we meet.

Forget it, what do you want him to do?After the experiment in the funeral supply store, Lu Mingran has already caught the loopholes in this world.From now on, he will find strange stories by himself, and will never see Gu He.

Since he is someone who has made up his mind not to meet, then don't think too much about him.

Lu Mingran just thought about it, and lay down with his eyes open for a while, when he clearly heard the slight noises coming from around him.

It was Xiaojiu who was carefully moving the place while grabbing the quilt. He raised his buttocks and moved slowly towards the bed, almost rolling to the ground.

Alas, as a guest, how can you monopolize the host's bed?

Lu Mingran reflected on himself, made a deep self-criticism, and then... resolutely moved towards Xiao Jiu.

Inch by inch, inch by inch, when Lu Mingran felt that he was about to touch Xiao Jiu, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground and the sound of screams exploded in the room together:

"Damn it, don't come here! Ghost, ghost!"

Slap.Lu Mingran pressed the desk lamp.

The orange light above his head was on, and under the envelope of soft light, Lu Mingran saw Xiao Jiuzheng fell to the ground with a quilt, lying there curled up in a ball.

Seeing him like this, Lu Mingran crawled forward to the edge of the bed, rested his chin on the edge of the bed, and winked at him:

"What are you doing? You don't sleep in the middle of the night."

And Xiao Jiu was not so much looking at him as he was looking behind him: "I dare not sleep with you."

"Huh?" Lu Mingran urged him to answer with his gaze.

Xiao Jiu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and finally agreed to say:

"Let me tell you, I'm actually very courageous. The reason why I ran away when I saw you in the building was because..."

Because Xiao Jiu saw a woman on Lu Mingran's back.

Xiao Jiu's physique has been different from others since he was a child, but his ability is not stable, sometimes he can see ghosts, sometimes he can't.Later, he thought about it and thought that he had read it wrong.

After returning home, he vaguely saw the woman again.This time he only saw one pair of hands, a pair of hands touching Lu Mingran's shoulders.

Thinking of the woman on Lu Mingran's back, and she was sleeping with them, Xiao Jiu's scalp would explode.

"That's it..." Lu Mingran was surprised and innocent, "Then do you know what to do?"

"I don't know how to solve it."

Xiao Jiu muttered, then slapped her thigh across the quilt:

"If Gu He is willing to help you, then this matter will be easier to handle!"

Gu He.

Lu Mingran didn't expect that he would go around such a big circle and hear this name again and again from other people's mouths.

--------------

There are many kinds of folks who watch things for others, and not all of them are Taoists.For example, Gu He and his master's sect usually don't do things and don't read formulas, but rely on the methods passed down by them to do things.

In the past, Gu He's master was the most famous in S City, and everyone in the older generation knew it.Later, he said that he was getting old, so he withdrew and handed over all his affairs to his apprentice Gu He.

There are rumors that Gu He's master retired after losing a bet with an old man with a white beard.There was everything for a while, but on the bridge by the river, there were still special people staying there every night.

In the past, it was Gu He's master who took a walk by the river at night, but now Gu He is standing alone on the riverside bridge, drinking tea slowly with a thermos cup.Occasionally, people who know him pass by here, and they will always smile with him:

"Mr. Xiao, you won't be able to sleep if you drink tea at night."

Master is an old gentleman, and Gu He is a young gentleman.Those who are close to them call them that.

Gu He smiled back and nodded slightly.In fact, everyone knows that Gu He often works late at night, drinking tea is nothing.

He is only 29 years old this year, but he already resembles his master in many ways.His master was free and easy, and he was also free and easy, and he also opened a small restaurant, where he settled accounts and counted money during the day, and was full of human fireworks.

After the master left, the number of people looking for Gu He to do things decreased a lot for a while, but then gradually increased again.People of the older generation still trust him a little more, and Gu He has a good temper, and is very patient when talking to the old man.

Speaking of Gu He, Xiao Jiu's eyes kept shining.That's right, it's impossible for someone like him who likes to do supernatural live broadcasts not to know about Gu He.

Xiao Jiu also said that after the teacher's father left, many people were eager to bully Gu He, which was the main reason for the sharp drop in his business.

later?Later, Gu He just invited those harsh seniors and domineering peers to his small restaurant. After a simple meal, he didn't know what Gu He did, but the matter calmed down like this.

But after talking about Gu He, Xiao Jiu remembered something, and said regretfully:

"I heard that Gu He seems to be helping his master to pay back some favors recently. It's a bit tricky, saying that he can't take orders for the time being."

Now Lu Mingran also recalled it.One of the reasons why Gu He got into such a big trouble for helping Xiao Tao later was that the debt of favor held him back, making him almost generalized by the other party.

It may be that Lu Mingran's expression was too solemn at this time, and Xiao Jiu's mood suddenly became depressed. He also said:

"It's a pity that you and Gu He are not that close. If you are his best friend, then he will definitely help you."

Pfft——Lu Mingran couldn't hold back, and almost burst out laughing.

To be honest, I'm Gu He's brother, the kind of life-and-death acquaintance.

However, Lu Mingran didn't have time to reveal his identity, or he didn't really want to talk about it.After all, if Xiao Jiu wanted to send him to Gu He immediately, things would be really difficult.

As for Gu He not being able to help him due to some special reasons... After a systematic analysis and deduction, he told Lu Mingran that Xiao Jiu would not believe him.

Now Xiao Jiu is still sitting on the ground.He looked at Lu Mingran, thought and thought, and finally patted his thigh through the quilt:

"It's okay, you still have me!"

Lu Mingran: "?"

----------

In the middle of the night, the two who were supposed to be sleeping on the bed slipped out again, but they were at home instead of going out.

Xiao Jiu took the lead in the front, and Lu Mingran followed behind. The two quickly passed by the room where the aunt lived, and entered the innermost room.

There was really enough dust there, Lu Mingran held his nose hard to prevent himself from coughing.And when the lights were turned on, Lu Mingran was shocked by the things placed here.

A row of things against the corner are knives, swords, and spears, which at first glance look like troupes.Lu Mingran tried to lift an iron sword, but soon realized that it was not for singing, but a real thing, so heavy that he couldn't lift it at all.

On the other side, Xiao Jiu was digging in a box, and finally he dug out a gong, and hugged it happily in his arms.

"...You don't mean to strike the gong in the middle of the night, do you?"

"Of course not tonight, I just came to make sure the things are still there."

Xiao Jiu regarded that thing as a treasure, and hugged it tightly:

"Lu Mingran, this is a good thing my parents left me. If you hadn't helped my live broadcast room gain followers, I wouldn't be willing to use it for you."

ah?Nowadays, parents always reserve houses and money for their children, so why do they still have a side?

Lu Mingran was about to ask a question, when suddenly he saw Xiao Jiu stand up straight.

"You two, go downstairs."

From behind, came the cold voice of my aunt.

--------------

"You asked me how I woke up? You screamed like a pig, it's strange that I didn't wake up."

A family educational drama was staged downstairs first, and Lu Mingran, an outsider, sat on the side and took a nap.

In the end, my aunt had enough education for the child, and turned to him and said:

"Let me ask you, did Fang Xiaojiu go to his live broadcast tonight!"

"Huh?" Lu Mingran hummed subconsciously, which was regarded by her aunt as an acknowledgment.

"How many times have I told you to do your duty and be an ordinary person."

Aunt looked at the jade on Xiaojiu's neck, eyes full of helplessness:

"Do you think you are Gu He? Do you think you can be as promising as him?"

Seeing Xiao Jiu being trained so pitifully, Lu Mingran couldn't help it, and interrupted boldly: "Actually, I also know Gu He..."

If there is a chance in the future, I can ask Gu He to teach Xiao Jiu.

But my aunt laughed:

"You know Gu He, what are you talking nonsense about? Let me tell you, Gu He is a formidable person, not something ordinary people can get close to."

Hey, it turns out that Gu He is really so powerful in the hearts of the previous generation.

As the hero's nominal brother, Lu Mingran suddenly felt a little proud.

Well, well, you're always right, you're always right.

Lu Mingran applauded blankly, agreeing very much, and wanted to laugh a little in his heart.

When the aunt had finished talking, she straightened up and warned Xiao Jiu one last time:

"Put away your junk from now on, and go to college honestly."

At this time, Xiao Jiu suddenly stopped being silent, and Lu Mingran heard his voice change.

It became a little colder. To be precise, the voice suddenly faded from immaturity and became colder:

"But aunt, that's what my parents do, why can't I?"

My aunt was questioned.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two became stiff, and Xiao Jiu still refused to admit defeat, Lu Mingran hurriedly smoothed things over.

He looked at the jade on Xiao Jiu's neck, and decided to start here: "Xiao Jiu, your jade is used for body protection, right?"

He must have been born weak or something.It is often written in ghost story novels that I laughed when I was born, and Taoist priests told me that I would not live until I was born, so Lu Mingran had already guessed the general outline of the story.

Sure enough, Xiao Jiu's aunt nodded:

"Well, his parents went crazy and bought it for 2000 yuan from a dealer. I found someone to see it, and it was worth two yuan."

"I met the old man who told his fortune later. When he came to our house, he was wearing a Taoist uniform. When I saw him that day, he was holding a cross and dyed his hair yellow."

Lu Mingran: "...Then, where are his parents?"

"Be the same virtue as him, went out to visit some master, and handed him over to me."

Well, how should I put it, if it wasn't for the plot of the family heirloom left behind by the death of the parents, at least, it would be very satisfactory.

Lu Mingran looked at Xiao Jiu, then at his aunt, and said, "Well, auntie... Xiao Jiu is really interested in these things."

"If it doesn't work, you can let him play. You see, there are still many fans in his live broadcast room."

Lu Mingran looked into his aunt's eyes and said, "You must have seen Xiao Jiu hugging that gong, he really likes it."

To put it bluntly, my aunt probably doesn't want to care about it anymore, after all, the child is grown up, and now she just needs a step down.After Lu Mingran finished speaking, she sighed, turned and went upstairs.

Now Xiao Jiu returned to her previous state, looking at Lu Mingran confusedly: "My aunt, what does this mean?"

"It seems... I don't want to care about you anymore."

To put it bluntly, my aunt thinks you are hopeless.

Lu Mingran can understand her aunt's thoughts. Opposing feudal superstition is one aspect. In addition, Lu Mingran is very clear that even if some minority cultures are very lively now, they will eventually be rejected by the mainstream.If you rashly embark on a path different from others, you will suffer a lot.

However, young people have to walk their own way.

Where did Xiao Jiu understand this, and when she came back to her senses, she yelled:

"God, my aunt and I have quarreled so many times without success!"

Then Xiao Jiu hugged Lu Mingran so excitedly that Lu Mingran was so frightened that his whole body became stiff.

But Xiao Jiu didn't intend to let go, he also said: "Xiao Lu, let's strike the gong tomorrow morning! Sound the gong tomorrow morning!"

He said it as if he was in a hurry to start the company tomorrow morning and hit the gong to go public.

...For the sake of safety, Lu Mingran asked the system, is it just a gong or is it really just a gong?

The system only replied: "Relax and sleep."

----------

The two tossed all night, and when they woke up the next day, it was almost noon.

Xiao Jiu suddenly jumped up from the bed:

"Noon is the best time, full of yang energy. Lu Mingran, hurry up!"

However, Lu Mingran couldn't hurry up, his back hurt badly this morning.When he looked in the mirror, he clearly saw the bruised and purple fingerprints left on his neck.

It looked like the female ghost was going to strangle him until the weekend.

"System..." Lu Mingran called out, "If something happens later, please save Xiaojiu first."

The role he played this time was really embarrassing.If you want the novel to continue to advance towards the main line of ghost stories, then he, a good brother, should find a corner where no one is around and wait for his death slowly, without bothering the protagonist.

But if he wants to live, he has to live, otherwise the protagonist will have to cause many things later in order to find out the cause of his death.

Lu Mingran was scared.

He is also afraid of involving others because of him.

"Well, you don't have to be so tragic," the system couldn't stand it anymore, "The fact that this world can give you such a clue means that Xiaojiu has a way to solve your current predicament."

At this time, there was a knock on the door:

"Lu Mingran, are you alright?"

"……All right."

As soon as he spoke, Lu Mingran realized that his voice had suddenly become hoarse.He went to open the door, startling Xiao Jiu outside.

Lu Mingran arched his back, as if he was carrying something very heavy.He tried to stand upright, but something weighed on him.

Xiao Jiu's face sank: "We have to hurry up."

----------

I don't know why, after seeing that gong again today, Lu Mingran felt some strange reactions from his body.

She was afraid, the female ghost was afraid.

"Xiao Jiu!" Lu Mingran suddenly had hope, "Do you know what to do?"

Xiao Jiu over there was lighting some incense, and said without looking back:

"My father said that this gong is used to drive away ghosts, just keep hitting it."

"The louder the better."

ah?Is it that simple and rude?

Before Lu Mingran could react, Xiao Jiu had already picked up the mallet, and hit the gong with a bang.

Lu Mingran felt that his ears were going deaf, and the neighbor next door also heard the sound and was yelling.

"No, wait a minute."

Lu Mingran covered his ears, picked up his mobile phone and connected it to Xiaojiu's bluetooth speaker, and played a song first:

"Good luck to you, good luck to you..."

It's really... festive.

At best the neighbors thought they were having a celebration, which was much better than the mere sound of the gong.

In this way, Lu Mingran can "die heroically" with peace of mind.

Xiao Jiu nodded and was ready.He found a pair of earplugs somewhere and stuffed them in his ears.

Duang, another gong sounded, with a long aftertaste.

Lu Mingran had heard the sound of gongs beating before, and every time it was related to monkeys.When I was a child, there was a monkey juggler at the gate of the park who beat every day with a gong.Later, when he grew up, once he was eating outside, when he suddenly heard the sound of gongs beating outside.

He was also a monkey tricker. He went from house to house to beat gongs in front of every business to tease the monkeys, and then spoke auspicious words in a very smooth manner to ask for some money.

The sound of the gong in those two times was much better than the current one.

Xiao Jiu knocked hard, and the sound of the gong was mixed with the singing of good luck, which was very festive.But Lu Mingran didn't feel any enjoyment at all. He felt that his back was hurting even more now, and it had evolved into the feeling that someone was scratching his back, and that person was in more pain than him.

Lu Mingran suddenly started running.

Xiao Jiu over there was not willing to let him go, and chased him down from upstairs with a gong.For a moment, the singing of good luck and the sound of the gong flew together, and the two of them circled around the sofa, and the chickens and dogs in the family jumped enough to tear down the roof.

Heck, Lu Mingran got down on the ground.

Before losing consciousness, Lu Mingran half-opened his eyes, and vaguely saw the hem of a costume dragging along the floor. He didn't dare to look, and the singing in his ears vaguely contained a few lines of a woman humming. :

"Crimson gauze half-covered, peach red and red clouds flying in the dark, those who pick up hairpins will be unlucky..."

The sound became more and more ethereal, farther and farther away.

Snapped.

Lu Mingran felt pain on his face.

He woke up after being slapped across the face.

----------

Xiao Tao is here on a business trip, but Lu Mingran is currently absent from work, the unit is urging him, and the phone is ringing endlessly.Xiao Jiu couldn't cope with this, and woke up Lu Mingran not long after he passed out.

Lu Mingran was not afraid of those work-related matters, on the contrary, he was completely immersed in the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe.

Ordinary people can't deal with ghosts, but some people can.Although the system told him that he would not be so lucky next time.

Seeing that Lu Mingran's face gradually improved and his back was not so hunched, Xiao Jiu asked him:

"Do you want to go out to eat?"

This meal, of course, must be invited by Lu Mingran.Lu Mingran glanced at the bank card balance in his phone, and proudly said that the location is up to you.

Xiao Jiu smiled sheepishly, saying that expensive places may not necessarily taste good, so let's go to Mengji's, which is a restaurant that locals love to go to.

----------------

Originally, he just wanted to eat, but Xiao Jiu yelled and insisted on ordering a few bottles of wine.

"Are you an adult?" Lu Mingran wanted to stop him.

"I'm an adult," Xiao Jiu pried off the lid of the beer, "It's just a drink, don't be so afraid."

The most ruthless words were spoken on the mouth, and the most trembling movements were made with the hands.

Lu Mingran looked around.

What Xiaojiu said is correct, there are all locals here, young people, and middle-aged drivers who have just finished their shifts come and sit on the dirty plastic stools outside, calling for a bowl of noodles first.

They were just sitting outside, the sky was getting darker and the surroundings were getting more and more lively, all kinds of voices mixed together, inexplicably reassuring.

This is the noise of the world.

In this atmosphere, it is too easy to talk to each other while drinking wine.Xiao Jiu filled her own cup, and then filled Lu Mingran's:

"Lu Mingran, you are the most interesting person I have ever met."

"You helped me once, and I helped you once. From then on, we are good friends and brothers."

In Xiao Jiu's heart, although Lu Mingran was a few years older than him, he had a pitiful image.A person went to a foreign place alone and was robbed of his belongings, and was also possessed by a female ghost.

Lu Mingran is completely a lonely cabbage in the field, in urgent need of his love and care.

Well, Lu Mingran is a cabbage.Well, no one will help Lu Mingran.

At this moment, goosebumps on Lu Mingran's body were about to rise.

If you don't learn anything else at a young age, why do you want to learn how people in society call you brothers?

But seeing Xiao Jiu's serious and passionate expression, Lu Mingran couldn't bear to scold him, so he could only sip his wine with a sullen head.

And Xiao Jiu was still saying, he said Lu Mingran, don't be afraid, I will be your brother in S city from now on, if you have something to do, come to me, brother, I will cover you, and I am willing to do anything for you.

For example, this time, look, even though there is no Gu He, I can still help you, am I great?

Lu Mingran: ...I'd better have a drink.

Xiao Jiu over there also realized that he was hypocritical, but what he said next was even more hypocritical:

"Come on, don't talk much, it's all in the wine."

As he spoke, Xiao Jiu raised his plastic wine glass.

Lu Mingran has nothing to do with this kind of secondary school child.The other party was in high spirits, so he didn't want to disappoint, so he also raised his cup, touched Xiao Jiu's cup, and read like a repeater:

"Okay, let's not talk much, it's all in the wine."

Holy shit, I hope you can really stop talking nonsense after drinking this glass of wine.

Lu Mingran doesn't know how to drink, and he hates drinking, he thinks wine is too bitter.

Xiao Jiu on the opposite side obviously drank for the first time. He frowned but still drank it down. Compared with him, Lu Mingran did what he could and swallowed slowly.

Lu Mingran closed his eyes when there was only one last bit left.At this time, he heard the people next to him suddenly laughing:

"Sir, I'm not going to your place today, come here for supper?"

The answer to everyone was a deep and pleasant male voice: "Yes. I'm here to find Boss Lin."

"Boss Hahalin has caused trouble recently, hasn't he?"

That voice stopped answering others and came towards Lu Mingran.

At this moment, Lu Mingran suddenly remembered something: Mengji restaurant is very close to the river!

This time Lu Mingran was almost choked, he opened his eyes in a panic, and saw a person he didn't want to see at a glance.

Gu He.He looks very quiet from the outside like in the novel
