Hailing barren city

Tao Rujiu felt like he had a dream.

The cave that he, Ling Li and Qi Lin Po discovered that day was at the bottom of the cliff where Ling Li's villa was located, and there was a section of steps carved by the ancients.When they returned to Hailing City, none of them made any noise about the flowers blooming.After these few days of torture, the people in the troupe have some understanding of the impermanence of life. As for Master Lu, they can only fabricate a white lie again to prevaricate.

Because of the pain all over his body, Ling Li stayed in the hospital for half a month after leaving the cave.Although Tao Rujiu and Qi Linpo were also injured, they were not as serious as him.But during Ling Li's two weeks in hospital, Tao Rujiu never appeared in front of his bed.

On the second day after his injury had almost recovered, Tao Rujiu unilaterally ended his visit to Hailing City and Lingli.He just said goodbye to Qilinpo briefly, and then went back to Xiyao.

After learning that Tao Rujiu had left without saying goodbye, Ling Li didn't take the initiative to look for him, he didn't even stay in Hailing, but left Xiyao in a hurry the next day, and never came back for half a year.

So Xi Yao's life is still like flowing water.Although he was far away from Hailing City, memories always appeared beside Tao Rujiu in the form of dreams, reminding him of the couple buried in the deep water, recalling his days and nights in Hailing City, Recalling the man who was cruel and gentle to himself.

Half a month later, Qilin Po got a large sum of money from somewhere, and opened a self-service style teahouse "Yinshanlou" in the downtown area of ​​Xiyao City.I don't know what kind of magic has been cast, everything in the building, from the decoration to the refreshments, to the male and female waiters, are all one or two grades higher than other competitors.So less than half a year after it was opened, it was filled with customers.In the blink of an eye, autumn came and went, and six months later, it became an exclusive scenic spot in this small seaside city.

Seeing that the New Year's Eve is approaching, the "Yinshan Building" has not stopped even the day before.Fortunately, Qi Lin Po is a person who doesn't value money, so he simply closed his shop for the New Year. In less than half a day, dozens of waiters had left all at once, so Mao Xian made a phone call slowly, They said they would invite Tao Rujiu to have a "reunion" year.

Although Tao Rujiu is not a native of Xiyao, but because of the newspaper system, he must stay in the local area to work overtime during the Chinese New Year.He just got off the day shift that day, and Uncle Ah Qing was busy with socializing and couldn't control him, so after thinking about it, he put on his coat and went to "Yinshan Tower".

"Welcome to Yinshan Building."

Qi Lin Po smiled and took the dried fish from the young man's hand, and waved his sleeve to lead him into the door.After setting up the teahouse, he still wore a toga with long sleeves, which complemented the antique small building.

He often said: "The antiques in this room are all fakes, and I am the only one who is genuine."

The person who once possessed the cat was an earth immortal with a history of dormancy for more than 1000 years.After several months of breath adjustment, his mana is gradually returning.If he was asked to deal with the matter of the underground palace at this time, he would definitely not be as embarrassed as he was half a year ago.

During the period when "Yinshan Building" was opened, Tao Rujiu happened to be sent to other places for interviews, so this was his first official visit to the small building.

The host led the guests upstairs and downstairs, and finally returned to the main hall. Although there was no one to attend, the table of good wine and food did not neglect at all.

"Congratulations to Boss Qi for making a fortune." Tao Rujiu poured a glass of wine and said half-jokingly.

"I am not the patron of this teahouse." Qi Linpo blinked mysteriously, "That person broke a very valuable thing of mine, so he must make compensation."

He didn't directly say the person's name, but Tao Rujiu instinctively noticed it.

It's that man, fierce.In this small town, it seems that he is the only one who has such a big penny, giving such a small building as compensation.

Does he still have contact with Qi Lin Po?And why should he pay him such a big small building?

Tao Rujiu was feeling a little uneasy when he suddenly saw Qi Lin Po standing up and walking around behind the screen.There is a door there, which is a passage leading to many private rooms in the back hall.

"Almost forgot, there are still people here waiting to see you..."

With that said, he opened the half-hidden door.

"Meow..."

Two balls of snow-white fur jumped out from the corner of the room.Upon closer inspection, it turned out that they were two white cats less than half a year old, with the characteristic soft and long fur of young cats, and big round eyes.One of them came towards Tao Rujiu very curiously, wanting to scratch his trouser legs with its front paws.But the other one, which was slightly bigger, grabbed the back of the neck and pulled it back vigorously.

Tao Rujiu was surprised at its possessiveness, Qi Lin Po came over and touched the big cat lightly with the tip of his shoe.

"Dong Li, don't change your nature!"

Tao Rujiu thought "Hey!", and quickly asked, "Could it be that they are..."

"That's right." Qilin Po said straightforwardly: "In this life, I've really become brothers, and I'm still Da Fu's child."

"Ah..." Tao Rujiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.He also heard Qi Linpo add: "The two of them have good bones, I will take them to cultivate immortality, but I don't know if you can see them transforming back into human form."

Hearing what he said, Tao Rujiu finally smiled lightly, "This can be regarded as fulfilling their wish."

Qi Linpo nodded, waved his hand and summoned two women who were also dressed in ancient costumes from somewhere, and put two gold plates containing milk on the table, and the two cats jumped onto the table as expected come up.

"Now." Qi Lin Po said: "You need the 'reunion' meal."

Tao Rujiu couldn't help but laugh.

This is indeed a reunion in Xiyao.Maybe I should go back to Hailing City tomorrow to see the troupe and acquaintances in the park.

...It's just that the person is missing.

Maybe what I really look forward to is his appearance?

Tao Rujiu smiled wryly, his indecisive personality has not changed until now.His ears were full of quarrels between Dongli and Qilinpo, who were half-human and half-animal, but he always felt a little deserted, because something was missing.

He lowered his head and took a few mouthfuls of food in a depressed mood, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"I've already hung up the exemption card, why is there still someone coming?"

Qi Lin Po was displeased, and asked casually, "Tao Tao, help me get rid of it."

Tao Ru got up as usual and went to the door, turned on the light, and sure enough saw a figure outside the frosted glass.

It can be seen that this is a tall man.

"Sorry, the door is not open today." Tao Rujiu said through the door.

The knock on the door stopped immediately, but instead of walking away, the figure suddenly pressed his hand to the glass.

Tao Rujiu was taken aback by the sudden push, and was even more reluctant to open the door, but couldn't help being curious, so she tiptoed her face to the crack of the door, wanting to see who was outside, but was caught off guard. It met an eye that was also peering in.

The feeling of being frightened suddenly was not good, Tao Rujiu took a few steps back one after another, trying to regain his composure.Immediately afterwards, he began to recall an eye in the crack of the door.

It was not an ordinary, brown eye, but with a touch of blue, the deep blue of the sea.

At this time, an extremely familiar voice, with a little hoarseness, came into his ears through the crack of the door.

"Aren't you willing to open the door? Don't miss our reunion night..."
