Collect all nine fox tails to summon the dragon?

"So, this is the gift you gave us?" Qian Fan pinched the four-petal flower on his fingertips, he couldn't laugh or cry: "You can't just pick flowers from other people's gardens on the side of the road and share them to make up for it when you come back?"

"Do you want love!" Su Zhi stretched out his hand to snatch back the flowers from Qian Fan's hand, but was avoided by the nimble Qian Fan.

"There's no reason to take back the gift you gave out." Qian Fan smiled and pinned the four-petal flower to the top of his colorful head.

Su Chi said depressedly: "I was going to buy a bunch, but I found out that I couldn't afford it."

While talking, she took out all the money in her pocket and put it on the dining table.

"It's only 39 yuan and 12 cents..." Qian Fan counted, and also emptied the things in his pockets and threw them on the table, "Hahaha, I still have [-] yuan!"

Su Qiu jumped up on the sofa, even if he emptied all his pockets, he couldn't find a dime.

Xiao Long leaned over, searched his whole body carefully, and finally took out a dime coin from the ripped pocket of his jeans.

"When did we become so poor?" Su Qiu asked in surprise.

"...We have always been poor." Su Chi sighed, "One is poor and the other is white."

Qian Fan giggled and said, "It's okay, we have Master Zhao, Maimai Zhao."

"I'm going back to buy and buy." After pouring cold water, Xiaolong came up with a bad idea: "Or we can steal his house deed and sell his house to support our family."

Qian Fan immediately raised his hands in favor.

Su Qiu hesitated: "Will this be bad?"

"It's not a question of whether it's good or not. It's simply breaking the law, okay?" Zhao Xiaoye opened the door, walked in with two bags of food, and said with feigned anger, "You guys are absolutely lawless."

Su Chi saw him and asked, "Why aren't you in the hospital, where is Zhong Kui?"

"The nurse will watch him." Zhao Xiaoye asked, "Have you had dinner yet?"

The four people who couldn't even afford flowers shook their heads in unison.

Zhao Xiaoye couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Come on, let's have barbecue tonight."

Qian Fan immediately carried the previous baking utensils to the balcony, and was as happy as if he had won a million lottery ticket.

Su Qiu and Su Zhi took the ingredients into the kitchen to wash, and the rest Zhao Xiaoye and Xiao Long took apart the bamboo sticks and started inserting sausages.

When everything was ready, Qian Fan moved a mat to sit on the balcony, with a colorful wig on his head, and started to bake things. Xiao Long was afraid that she would eat all the things, so he followed her to brush oil and supervise.

The sliding door of the balcony was removed by Su Qiu, and it became a small semi-outdoor open platform. He sat on the edge of the dining table, and was a little dizzy after being poured a few glasses of wine by Zhao Xiaoye.

Most of the food Qian Fan baked was sent to the dining table by the cage. The little fox took a chicken leg by himself, sat next to Zhao Xiaoye, and said with a smile, "Master Zhao, you are leaving this time, when will you come back?"

Zhao Xiaoye smiled and said, "I don't know either."

"Tch, so you bought us these foods, are you planning to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in advance?" Xiao Long said dissatisfiedly, "It doesn't count. Without moon cakes, it doesn't count as Mid-Autumn Festival."

Zhao Xiaoye actually took out a mooncake from his pocket and threw it in front of the Xiaolong table.

Xiao Long said in amazement: "It doesn't count, it doesn't count as Mid-Autumn Festival if there are not enough people."

Zhao Xiaoye smiled without saying a word, snatched back the piece of moon cake, put it in his hand and pinched the plastic bag on it.

Su Chi looked at him, but didn't speak.

The things Zhao Xiaoye bought were exactly as he said, fresh and delicious, and the portions were filling.

After filling up their stomachs so shiny, these people, who had worked so hard for many days, each felt drowsy. Qian Fan and Xiao Long hooked their shoulders together and entered the bedroom, and both fell asleep. Not to mention Su Qiu, who became a drunk dog after getting drunk , dizzy nest at the door snoring.

Su Chi cleaned up the mess, and Zhao Xiaoye followed her to help. After a long time, he suddenly spoke and asked softly, "Su Chi, do you want to go back with me?"

Su Chi was taken aback for a moment, then looked back at Zhao Xiaoye uncertainly, "Go back with you? Back to your village?"

She thought she heard it wrong, or Zhao Xiaoye said it wrong.

"En." Zhao Xiaoye did not deny it. Although his expression was hesitant, it was more of an awareness that there would be no such shop after passing this village. He continued: "Xiaolong told me that the reason why you can't Sleeping like a normal person is because you don't feel safe. I think the village where I grew up should give you a sense of security. The people there are very kind and most importantly, they don't want anything from you. Nothing, I won't let others take away from you what you don't want to give him. It's very hidden and beautiful..." After talking about it, Zhao Xiaoye himself was at the end of his words in embarrassment.

"...Xanadu, I heard about it." Su Chi was also a little embarrassed.

Zhao Xiaoye nodded, not knowing what to say for a while.

After a moment of silence, Su Chi didn't speak, Zhao Xiaoye could only ask: "Then...do you want to come?"

Su Chi sighed, "I won't go."

The answer was actually completely within Zhao Xiaoye's estimation, so he felt that he didn't need to feel disappointed or sad at all.

But in fact, he will still be disappointed and sad.

"Is it because of Xiao Cage?" Zhao Xiaoye asked softly.

Su Chi hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Yes."

"...She and you..." Zhao Xiaoye hesitated.

"I never hoped for any family and marriage. Even if it is a relationship, it doesn't have to be love." Su Chi said: "What's more, if it is really love, I will choose the one that puts me completely in the first place." The person." She pursed her lips and laughed at herself: "I think whoever values ​​my life the most at any time can give me the most direct sense of security."

Zhao Xiaoye was stunned, and then smiled wryly: "You are blaming me for not saving you first."

"It's not really strange or not, you saved my life, I should promise you with all my heart." Su Chi paused for a moment, and suddenly didn't bother to go around in circles, so he said directly: "Zhao Xiaoye, maybe you may not be as good as you." You care about me as much as you think. Qinglong God can bring great help to your people, I understand, but people don’t think about these issues rationally when life and death are at stake, at least I can’t. Guess that time I When I was holding my wound and waiting for you to save me, what was I thinking?"

Zhao Xiaoye shook his head desolately.

Su Chi glanced in the direction of the bedroom, and said helplessly, "I'm thinking about how to bring her to adapt to life outside the cage."

Zhao Xiaoye let out a long sigh, "So, it is impossible for you to leave with me."

Su Chi nodded.

"...If..." Zhao Xiaoye said with a smile: "If I realized this problem earlier, would I still have a chance?"

Su Chi shook her head and suddenly smiled. Her smile seemed to be self-deprecating, but there was a touch of pride beyond Zhao Xiaoye's expectations, "How early? Can it be earlier than her? Staring at me before I was born? "

So Zhao Xiaoye also laughed and completely surrendered.

It's not that some people don't like it, but sometimes, their likes are not special, especially when they have strong opponents by their side.

---

When Xiaolong woke up, it was already noon the next day, and there was no one in the living room except Qianfan who was putting on nail polish. Xiaolong asked her where the others had gone while drinking water.

Qian Fan casually said that Zhao Xiaoye had gone to the hospital to discharge Zhong Kui in the morning, and he had probably returned to the legendary Peach Blossom Land by now. Back home and waiting for Xiaocang, the sleepy bug, to wake up.

Xiao Long was so startled that he almost broke the cup, and without caring about anything else, he grabbed a coat and ran outside.

Originally prepared a bunch of indignant speeches, but as soon as he arrived at the supermarket, Xiaolong was attracted by the police cars parked at the entrance of the supermarket and the crowd of onlookers.

Xiaolong plunged into the crowd and saw that there were two groups of people separated by the police. On one side was a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, and on the other was a young man with dyed yellow hair and a pair of tight jeans. Behind the young man stood a Old men with gray hair and disheveled clothes, middle-aged people and young people are pointing and swearing at each other, and the police and the store manager are trying to persuade them from left to right.

Xiao Long asked the store manager loudly: "The store manager! What's going on?"

The store manager raised his head and caught a glimpse of Xiao Long, and called her name repeatedly in a hurry, but couldn't explain what happened for a long time.

Seeing that the short and chubby store manager was about to be pushed down by the young man, Xiao Long rolled up his sleeves and rushed over to help. Outside the crowd, a hand reached in in time, grabbed Xiao Long by the collar accurately, and pulled her out of the crowd.

Xiaolong turned his head and saw Su Chi, and said in shock: "Someone is actually bullying the store manager!"

Su Chi warned: "Don't make any trouble."

Xiao Cage asked, "What happened?"

"The old man was demented. He went into the store to take something and left. The siren rang, and his grandson came to apologize, but the store manager didn't care about it. The middle-aged man sneered and said that the old man pretended to be sick and really stole. The young man had a conflict with him. , the store manager called the police." Su Chi watched coldly and said, "As for the others, they are all here to watch the fun."

The middle-aged people are strong and the young people are hot-blooded and impulsive. The police couldn't stop them. When they were making a fuss, Su Qiu came back with packed lunch and was stunned when he saw the battle at the door.

Su Chi took the packing box in his hand and ordered: "Put all the troublemakers into the police car."

Su Qiu agreed, broke into the crowd single-handedly, separated the two troublemakers in minutes, and threw them into the car at the same time.

When facing the store manager, Su Qiu was in a dilemma. He asked the store manager: "Store manager, what are you doing next? I have to throw you in together."

The store manager said angrily, "I'm trying to persuade you to fight!"

The police drove away with people. As soon as the crowd dispersed, the calmness returned to the supermarket entrance, but Xiao Long found that the old man suffering from dementia was left alone.

"..." Su Chi was silent.

Xiao Long said in a stern voice: "Su Qiu, you have fallen behind!"

Su Qiu was puzzled and said: "The old man is very good, why did you let him leave with the people in the police car?"

The store manager sighed: "Forget it, let the old man come in to escape the heat, let's eat first."

The dull old man was temporarily placed on the long table by the window in the supermarket. The store manager gave him half of his meal and ate slowly with him.

I thought the young man would come back to pick up his lost grandfather in the afternoon, but Su Chi and the others waited all night until after five o'clock the next morning, when the young man returned to the supermarket in a daze, muffled Ask about the whereabouts of your grandfather.

The old man was lying on a folding chair in the store, covered with a thin quilt, sleeping soundly. Hearing his grandson's voice, he opened his eyes in a daze and got off the chair. He turned around and wanted to help fold the quilt.

The young man could see that he was quite tired and depressed, but he still bowed to Su Chi and the others and insisted on paying for the meal.

Su Chi glanced at his hand, and suddenly said: "Actually, you are indeed a thief, and you have a criminal record, that's why you have been interrogated until now, right?"

The young man's shoulders sank and he didn't deny it.

Su Chi sighed and said, "I have never seen any kind of thief in my store. But I know that you will not take your grandfather out to steal, so you go, the old man is frightened and needs to be comforted."

The young man nodded, and helped the old man who looked confused and panicked to go out.

Su Qiu picked up the thin blanket, put it on the old man at the door of the store, and said, "I don't think he's in good health, so just leave when he wakes up, don't catch a cold."

The young man looked up at Su Qiu, and was about to thank him, but suddenly stopped talking.

Xiao Long was close, and saw something was wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?"

The young man frowned and said doubtfully, "You... I seem to have seen you somewhere."
