"You are my little apple, I can't love you too much..."
Gu Yuan quietly opened one eye, peeking at the little uncle sitting behind the desk opposite, and fell into a difficult choice in his heart, the phone rang, should he answer it, or not?
A ballpoint pen was thrown at the head, and Lu Xingting's cold words sounded: "Meditate and concentrate."
"Little uncle." Gu Yuan said timidly, "My phone rang."
Over there, Lu Xingting was writing something with his head down, without raising his head, he said, "If you ignore it, it will stop naturally."
"Oh, okay." Gu Yuan could only close his eyes and continue to meditate pretendingly.
He said he was practicing meditation, but in fact he couldn't calm down at all.For a while, I was thinking about what to order for lunch, and for a while, I was thinking about asking my girlfriend to watch a movie with me after get off work.Now my mind is filled with the melody of "Little Apple", counting the time, could it be that the online shopping has arrived?Thinking of it this way is another heart-scratching lung.
The phone rang for 1 minute and no one answered it, so I hung up naturally.Just as Gu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, he heard it ringing tirelessly again.
"It seems that someone is looking for me, and I'm quite anxious, otherwise I..." Gu Yuan said, secretly looking at the face of the little uncle.
"Continue to meditate."
"Oh." Gu Yuan was immediately dejected.The mobile phone is clearly placed on the desk within a short distance, but it seems to be so far away.
But the caller was very persistent, and a third call came after a while.Lu Xingting finally got impatient with the noise, stood up and wanted to mute Gu Yuan's phone, but when he saw the caller ID, he couldn't help frowning slightly: "Idol No. 2?"
Gu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he comforted himself and said: It's okay, the little uncle doesn't know who it is.
Lu Xingting's face sank like water, and he said very dissatisfied: "You are still chasing stars at this age? No wonder the progress in practicing kung fu is so slow!"
This misunderstanding was just right, Gu Yuan felt relieved, and smirked at Lu Xingting, causing the little uncle to look away in disgust.
Sitting on pins and needles on the sofa endured for another half an hour, Gu Yuan pondered that this time of precipitation was enough for the little uncle to forget the phone, and said: "Little uncle, I want to go to the toilet."
Lu Xingting became more and more dissatisfied: "It's just for you to practice for a while, why are there so many problems?"
Gu Yuan said awkwardly: "I drank too much water."
"Go back quickly!"
Gu Yuan seemed to have received a pardon, and ran to the toilet like flying.When Lu Xingting was not paying attention, he sneaked away the mobile phone on the table.
Lu Xingting looked at his back and shook his head slowly: "Dead wood cannot be carved."
After rushing into the toilet, Gu Yuan immediately locked the door from the inside, hurriedly took out his mobile phone to call back, and deliberately lowered his voice, a bit like an undercover agent in a police drama.
"Hello, Director Mo?"
Mo Xiaofeng's anxious and dissatisfied voice came from the other end of the phone: "What's the matter with you? It's fine if you don't answer the phone, why did you change it to Do Not Disturb mode?"
"Isn't it inconvenient for me?" Gu Yuan felt bitter.Knowing that Mo Dao is not on good terms with the junior uncle, how dare he answer Mo Dao's call in front of the junior martial uncle?It took a lot of hard work to avoid the eyes and ears of the little uncle, and making a phone call was comparable to fighting a guerrilla.
"Forget it." Mo Xiaofeng didn't bother to argue with him, and said directly, "Let Lu Xingting answer the phone."
"What?"
"Lu Xingting, don't you go to work with him? You know I don't have his phone number."
"..." For a moment, Gu Yuan just wanted to scream up to the sky, Mo Dao, don't bring such a trick!
When Gu Yuan came back step by step with a face full of lovelessness, even Lu Xingting couldn't help thinking that he had abused him.It's just to let him practice his skills, why is it like going to the execution ground?Thinking of this, his face suddenly sank.Today's young people are really greedy for comfort and do not think about making progress!
He is used to being called short and long by others, and he completely forgot that he is only three or four years older than Gu Yuan.
Just as he was about to admonish him, Gu Yuan stretched out his hand and handed the phone in front of him: "Uncle, call."
Who would use Gu Yuan's mobile phone to call himself?Lu Xingting thought about it, and the expression on his face became even uglier: "Mo...Mo Xiaofeng?" I wanted to call him Mo Bai, but thinking that Gu Yuan was still there, he changed it to Mo Xiaofeng in time.
Gu Yuan's heart trembled, this guess was too fast!Could it be that there is a strange feeling between natural enemies?
"Is he the one who called you just now?"
Gu Yuan smiled sheepishly, thinking quickly in his mind: Do you want to take the opportunity to flatter my little uncle, praise him for his ability to predict things like a god?Forget it, more words and more mistakes, or silence is golden.
Lu Xingting stared at the phone, was lucky for three seconds, and finally picked it up: "What can I do for you?"
"You have been in contact with the underworld all the time, right? I want you to help me find someone, no, a ghost." Mo Xiaofeng's voice was a little hoarse, as if he hadn't slept well all night.
"Indeed, there will be some intersections at work." Lu Xingting finished speaking calmly, and then sneered, "But why should I help you?"
"He means a lot to me."
Lu Xingting said indifferently: "It's important to you, but it has nothing to do with me."
After a while of silence, the other end of the phone said with some difficulty: "Count me...please."
Lu Xingting sneered: "You also ask for help?"
There was no anger, no retort, just silence on the other end of the phone.
Lu Xingting suddenly felt bored: "Please report your name and date of birth."
After the phone call was over, Gu Yuan came up eagerly and asked, "Little uncle, Director Mo asked you to help find someone in the underworld?"
Lu Xingting gave him a cold look.
Gu Yuan was like pouring cold water, and the soul of gossip went out instantly. He carefully took the phone from Lu Xingting, and returned to the edge of the sofa in three steps at a time, crossed his legs, and sat down.
How to avoid disaster?Only practice.
Lu Xingting stared at him for a while, then suddenly said, "Who is your 'God No. [-]'?"
It was rare for the junior uncle to show concern for his hobbies. Gu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he said immediately: "Speaking of this person, the junior senior uncle should also know him, that is Senior Brother Mo Bai from Xiyuezong!"
What did he say wrong?Could it be that the little uncle and senior brother Mo Bai also had a festival?Why is there such a strange expression on his face?You Qi looked at his own eyes, why did he seem to be looking at a fool?
Gu Yuan thought anxiously, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he secretly said that he is just stupid?When it comes to male gods, how can you forget the little uncle in front of you?You know, men's vanity is also very strong.He hurriedly made amends: "However, no matter whether it is male god No. 1 or male god No. 2, it can't match you, little uncle, you are the male god No. 0 in my heart!"
Lu Xingting immediately showed disgust; "Don't compare me with him!"
Don't compare yourself to anyone?Little Martial Uncle used the word "he", probably referring to Mo Dao.
Gu Yuan was still thinking about it, but he heard Lu Xingting say coldly: "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and practice!"
Well, practice.
Mo Xiaofeng became more and more anxious.
Xiao Jiu has been missing for three days. According to the news from Lu Xingting, the underworld has not caught any wandering soul suspected of Xiao Jiu in this period of time.In addition, there is another additional news, that is, the number of wandering spirits in the entire city B has decreased a lot. I don't know if they are hiding or have other places to go.
The mirror demon faithfully implemented the principle of taking the master's joy as its own joy, and followed blindly anxiously: "Could it be that the news is wrong?"
"Impossible." Mo Xiaofeng said without thinking, "Although Lu Xingting has a distasteful personality, he is absolutely unambiguous in his promises. If he says there is no hell, then there must be."
"Then where can Xiao Jiu go?"
"There is only one possibility." Mo Xiaofeng said slowly, "It's not that he lost his temper and refused to come back, it's just that he can't come back."
After a pause, he said with certainty: "He must have been captured by someone."
"What can we do then?"
Mo Xiaofeng closed his eyes, put his hands on his temples, rubbed them slowly a few times, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes became clear and determined: "Go, bring the bell, and prepare four incense candles .”
The mirror demon froze for a moment, do you still want to summon the soul?It was obviously unsuccessful last time, besides, if he was really taken away, no matter how hard he recruited, he would never be able to get back!But it didn't dare to say these words to Mo Xiaofeng, it just asked cautiously: "Then do you need to prepare the incense burner?"
"No need." After Mo Xiaofeng finished speaking, he got up and walked to the desk, and took out a blank piece of paper.First fold the white paper in half, then take out the scissors and cut it out.
When the mirror demon lit the candles and placed them in the four corners, Mo Xiaofeng opened the cut things and stood in the middle.Only then did the mirror demon see clearly that Mo Xiaofeng had cut the white paper into the shape of a dog.
Seeing that Mo Xiaofeng had already picked up the bell, the mirror demon didn't dare to stay, and hurriedly hid in the mirror.
The lights in the room have been turned off, only the flames of the four incense candles flickering on and off.Mo Xiaofeng rang the bell and muttered something in his mouth. After a while, a gust of wind rushed in from the window, and the four candles went out at the same time, and then lit up again.
The bell stopped abruptly, and Mo Xiaofeng opened his eyes.
The paper-cut puppy that was standing on the ground had already been blown to one side by the gloomy wind, and Mo Xiaofeng's eyes were fixed on that puppy.
About a minute later, the puppy's tail suddenly moved slightly, and then its limbs also moved, and suddenly turned over and stood up.
It sniffed the air with its nose, found Mo Xiaofeng standing on the side, lowered its head, whimpered twice, and suddenly rushed towards Mo Xiaofeng!
"You are my little apple, I can't love you too much..."
Gu Yuan quietly opened one eye, peeking at the little uncle sitting behind the desk opposite, and fell into a difficult choice in his heart, the phone rang, should he answer it, or not?
