Yin Yang Baozi Shop

The soles of the black cloth shoes are extremely thick, the toe is raised, and the body of the shoes is embroidered with simple and beautiful gold silk patterns.

Further up, there is a man's satin robe with black trim and dark red border.The robe was also embroidered with gold thread, but this time it looked like an abstract dragon and phoenix totem.Then, Zhao Man saw a pair of hands.

Those hands are skinny, blue and white, without the slightest breath of life...

It was such a pair of hands that touched her arm last night...

Zhao Man only felt her hair go numb, and she quickly closed her eyes in fright, not daring to look at it anymore.Just at this moment, she heard a familiar, reassuring voice.

"Zhao Man, don't be afraid, open your eyes and hurry up."

It's Boss Bao's voice!Zhao Man summoned up his courage and quickly opened his eyes.

The goal is no longer the cold, frosty hands, nor the ominous robe.It was Boss Xiaobao with bright and clear eyes and a handsome face.

Zhao Man's eyes turned red immediately, she hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, let out a long breath, and then said in a crying voice: "I saw..."

She said what she saw, and then said with a little apology: "Sorry, I was too scared, I only saw the position of his hand, and then I didn't dare to look up..."

Mu Ziyi stretched out his hand to pat her comfortingly, but he didn't want his hand to be pulled halfway.

He looked at the hand that was slightly bigger than his, and turned to look at Gu Jing.

Gu Jing coughed lightly, then retracted his hand as if naturally, then looked down at the teacup in his hand, and explained: "Male and female can't kiss each other."

Mu Ziyi: "..." Yes, I think you are an ancient, I respect you!

Zhao Man: "..." Suddenly, I don't feel so scared anymore.I also suddenly felt that my heart, which was flooded with spring water just now, has returned to stagnant water again.

Don't touch it if you don't touch it, Mu Ziyi said seriously: "According to what you said, those shoes should be birthday shoes. It's just that the robe, embroidered with dragon and phoenix patterns, is a bit strange. In my impression, shrouds are not I can embroider patterns like that."

"Happy clothes." Gu Jing said lightly, "The style of the shroud is not embroidered with longevity characters, but embroidered with dragon and phoenix patterns. It is a happy clothes for the underworld. The so-called contract is already obvious."

Mu Ziyi blurted out: "Marriage in the dark!"

Zhao Man's whole body trembled, inexplicably feeling cold all over, his hands and feet were numb, and the chill reached Tianling Gai.

She couldn't help hugging her arm, and said with a trembling voice: "This, how is this possible... This kind of thing..."

Mu Ziyi and Gu Jing looked at each other and fell silent.

In the past, Mu Ziyi never thought that he might come back to inherit his father's bun shop.And Gu Jing never thought that she would make "friends".

Zhao Man's heart is still quite strong, she doesn't cry or make noise, she sits there talking to herself and after a few minutes of silence, she has calmed down.

"What will happen to me?"

Mu Ziyi looked at Gu Jing. He knew little about dark marriages, and Gu Jing, who was an old antique, would know better about this.

Speaking of it... Mu Ziyi suddenly thought that he might be able to use Gu Jing as half an encyclopedia.When the two of them were chatting the night before, he discovered that Gu Jing really knew a lot of things.

Gu Jing, who suddenly became a encyclopedia, said: "There are two types of contracts in ghost marriages, one is between dead souls and dead souls, and the other is between dead souls and living people, which are further subdivided into two types. Continue to live until a hundred years later, go to the underworld to stay with the souls of the dead. Second, after signing the contract, the living will die for the souls of the dead.

"However, this method is a wild way among the people. It will not be officially recognized by the underworld, and it will not be recorded. If it is discovered, the dead soul will be punished in the underworld."

"I understand, marriage is free!" Mu Ziyi said with a smile, "Do you still have people in charge of marriage in the underworld?"

Gu Jing nodded slightly, "For the convenience of management, the underworld has already divided into various departments."

"It's quite advanced." Mu Ziyi recalled his one-day trip to the underworld when he was a child, thinking that he didn't have the chance to appreciate the atmosphere of the underworld with a bit of pity.

He looked at Zhao Man again, looked at the strong dead breath between the man's brows, and sighed: "It seems that you were tricked by someone in a wild way. The dead bridegroom wants to kill you so that he can marry you Passed through."

Zhao Man clenched her fists and said firmly, "I don't want to die, and I don't want to marry a dead soul. Boss Bao, do you need me to do something?"

Mu Ziyi nodded: "You have to start from your origin, for example, how did your ghost marriage contract come about, and who made it for you. For this, you need to think about it carefully to know your birthplace and date of birth. people."

Zhao Man frowned slightly, and said after a moment of thought: "Except for my parents, no one should know. But my parents are abroad recently, and although they are busy, they always love me, so it is impossible to do such a thing. "

Parents who love their children are indeed unlikely to do such a thing.Mu Ziyi frowned slightly, always feeling that there was something else that he skipped.

Gu Jing reminded in a low voice, "School."

Mu Ziyi's eyes lit up, yes, the incident happened at the school!

He looked at Zhao Man and asked, "Who knows about you staying in school for an extra day? For example, teachers, classmates and so on."

When Zhao Man said this, he suddenly understood something, and his face changed: "Our teacher knows, and my roommates know too."

"So among them, does anyone know your birth date?"

Zhao Man thought about it carefully, then raised her head with a pale face, and said, "I used to play a divination game with my roommates. At that time, I needed to write down the horoscopes of all of us. I also asked my mother , and then convert it into eight characters, and write it on a note..."

With that said, Zhao Man's roommates are all suspects.

There was no need for Mu Ziyi to ask further questions, Zhao Man said by herself: "I have three roommates in total, and one of them went abroad as an exchange student two months ago. Returning to China. Another roommate, on the day of her holiday, she took the train home overnight."

Mu Ziyi directly locked the suspect on the last friend, and said, "Do you have her phone number? If so, call and see."

Zhao Man then dialed the phone and said, "Her home is in a remote country, and the signal may not be very good."

While speaking, the phone was connected.Zhao Man turned on the loudspeaker and said, "Xiaoqi, it's me."

"Zhao... Zhao Man!" Xiaoqi's voice was a little sharp, even with a hint of panic, "You, why did you call me?"

Zhao Man said in a low voice: "Recently, I always feel that something is wrong with me, and I am quite scared, so I want to tell you."

No one answered the phone, only heavy breathing hit Zhao Man's heart.

After a while, Xiaoqi hurriedly said: "The signal here is very poor. You know, it's in the countryside. I'll talk to you later when I get to the town and the signal is better. Bye."

Zhao Man listened to the busy tone on the phone in a daze, and subconsciously looked at Mu Ziyi.

Mu Ziyi pursed her lips and asked her to call another roommate.

Zhao Man called numbly, and soon another roommate's cheerful voice came over the phone, and the other party also said that he would bring her some souvenirs.When she realized that Zhao Man was absent-minded, she was still concerned.

Zhao Man responded casually and hung up the phone.

Mu Ziyi spread his hands: "It's obvious. Do you know where your roommate's home is? I'll let your family send some equipment, clothes, biscuits, etc. Keep everything simple. After an hour and a half, Let's take the high-speed rail together and try to arrive before this morning, okay?"

Zhao Man calculated the distance, and it was probably okay.So she called the nanny at home and asked her to pack her things.

Mu Ziyi then looked at Gu Jing again and asked, "What about you?"

"Of course I'll go with you." Gu Jing replied without thinking.

Mu Ziyi smiled, and said with crooked eyebrows, "It's as if you're singing like a husband."

Gu Jing heard that the hand holding the tea cup couldn't help exerting force, and only heard a "pop" sound. The cup that had been cracked by him before could not resist being broken into slag.

Mu Ziyi: "..."

He said sadly: "My cup did something wrong, you have to treat it like this!"

Looking at the ill-fated mug, Gu Jing apologized in a low voice, and said, "I happen to have a set of tea sets in my luggage, but it's a little old, from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. See if you like it, and if you don't like it I'll ask my butler to look for something else another day..."

Mu Ziyi: "..." It seems a bit of a deal to exchange a set of seven-piece tea set from Taobao for nine yuan and nine free shipping for a Qing Dynasty tea set?

Once again speechless about Gu Jing's richness, he sighed, and his eyes inadvertently glanced at Gu Jing's fingers with a little red.

Feeling tense, Mu Ziyi stretched out his hand involuntarily, and grabbed that bony finger.

I saw five or six scars on the palm of that hand and fingers.The scar wasn't too deep, but there was still a little bit of blood oozing.

Mu Ziyi frowned, and said angrily, "Wouldn't you tell me if you were injured?"

Gu Jing looked at him blankly: "It's just a small injury." Although it was quite painful.His shell, after all, is still a bit delicate.

As soon as the words fell, he got a pair of white eyes from Mu Ziyi.Immediately afterwards, he was pulled up by the man and escorted all the way to the main house.

Zhao Man, who was left in place, and the little fat black cat on the branch stared wide-eyed, pitiful and lonely.

Ten minutes later, Mu Ziyi clapped his hands, stood up and admired the fruits of his labor with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "I haven't been injured for a long time, and my technique is a bit rusty, sorry!"

Gu Jing's heart moved, and he said, "Were you often injured before?"

"Well," Mu Ziyi said with a smile as he tidied up his things heartlessly, "When I first received the entrustment to hunt ghosts in the early years, I had to get hurt every few days. Hurt a lot."

Gu Jing felt a little uncomfortable: "Where are your family members? Just let you take over the task, don't you care?"

The only steamed stuffed bun shop that straddles the yin and yang worlds, it is not so poor that it needs a child to go out to earn the kind of dangerous money.

Mu Ziyi paused, and then said flatly: "My mother died early, and my father didn't know about it. By the time he knows, I've already made a name for myself in the industry, and he can't stop me."

He looked at Gu Jing again, looked at the man's face where he couldn't see the expression clearly, and said with a smile: "You will be young at that time, and you will be a little bit silly. Just thinking about earning money and spending it yourself is a very handsome and responsible thing."

He said again: "Don't worry about me, there are really not many ghosts out there who can beat me now."

Gu Jing slightly hooked the corners of her lips, and responded.

Mu Ziyi went back to his room to pack his luggage, while Gu Jing sat on the sofa in the living room, staring at his bandaged hands in a daze.

It just so happened that a gust of wind blew past, and there was an ethereal figure in the room.

The young male ghost in a suit bowed respectfully and said, "I've met you, sir."

Gu Jing raised his head and glanced at him, and said lightly, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, my subordinates are incompetent and failed to catch that demon. He..." The voice stopped abruptly.The male ghost in a suit stared blankly at his lord's hand that was bandaged like a big pig's hoof.
