The house is money, the story is life

Early the next morning, Yao Qianhong arrived as promised. Zhou Tang and Xia Shi were still having breakfast when they knocked on the door of Weiqiu’s agency—to be precise, Zhou Tang was eating alone, and Xia Shi was only reading while drinking soy milk. Zhou Tang's typed draft, seeing Yao Qianhong coming, did not lift his eyes, just pushed the raw fried fish with rattan pepper in front of him towards Zhou Tang, making it clear that he would not eat it.

Yao Qianhong smiled bitterly: "I have eaten it."

"I know." Xia Shi said calmly, "I just want to express my attitude."

Yao Qianhong: "Why did I provoke you again?"

Xia Shi didn't answer, but just sat down beside Zhou Tang.Yao Qianhong looked at him and then at Zhou Tang, thinking that he was indeed a little rude to Zhou Tang in his words yesterday, and Xia Shi always defended his shortcomings, so he didn't say anything more, and found a seat far away. Waiting for the two to finish eating, and waiting for Sen Luo to come to the door.

This time Sen Luo came a bit late, Zhou Tang told him that the time was 07:30 in the morning, and he didn't show up until after nine o'clock, and when he came, he was still carrying a bag with angular things inside. It looks heavy.Zhou Tang glanced curiously, and asked, "What is this? A book?"

Sen Luo nodded: "I just went to the bookstore to buy the complete works of "Ghost X Lantern" and "Pirate X Notes."

Most of the nearby bookstores didn't open until nine o'clock, no wonder he came so late.Zhou Tang looked at his sweaty face, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "You haven't given up yet, have you?"

Sen Luo: "What?"

"It's the digging thing..." Due to the presence of Yao Qianhong, Zhou Tang couldn't say too much, so he had to mention it in a very cryptic way (I think).Sen Luo scratched his head, and it took him a while to react, feeling embarrassed: "Hey, where are you going, am I such a stupid person!"

You are - at this moment, the thoughts of Zhou Tang and Xia Shi reached an unprecedented synchronization.

"Give it to Xiaobai." Sen Luo shook the bag in his hand, "Although he doesn't know me now... we talked about it before, he likes this kind of story, but his brother won't let me read it, then Mr. Xing doesn't agree with anything. He keeps throwing his magazines away, so that he can only use his mobile phone to secretly read them. It hurts his eyes. I thought about it. If I give him a set as a gift, no matter how much his family doesn't like it, he will always It won't be lost, will it?"

IQ is actually on the line! ——Once again, Weiqiu's intermediary boss and employees reached an agreement.

Yao Qianhong bent his lips and smiled: "You remind me of my orange cat* who always picks up bugs at home."

Sen Luo: "???"

Zhou Tang shook his head and was about to help explain, but Xia Shi patted his arm at this moment, put down the manuscript paper and stood up: "Okay, since everyone is here, let's go directly. What nonsense, On the way."

They went to Laotou Street again, and this time they didn't take the bus—Yao Qianhong drove his own car.Dazzling black limited edition Range Rover Evoque, low-key luxury with connotation, red to the depths not afraid of black*, when a few people came out, there was still a ticket posted on it.

Yao Qianhong's face was darker than Lu Rover's on the spot.Although Sen Luo didn't know him well, he still patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, and comforted him sincerely: "It's okay, it's fine if you don't pay it, anyway, it will pass soon... Be careful next time, next time Notice!"

Yao Qianhong: "..."

Does this mean that the operation will fail by default?It's not too long... Do you think we can't even last fifteen days?You don't have to worry about late fees, do you?

It was rare for Yao Qianhong to show a somewhat frustrated look.He slumped his shoulders rather weakly, collected the ticket, and then opened the back seat door for several people: "Come on, please get on."

Zhou Tang and Sen Luo sat in the back seat, while Xia Shi climbed into the co-pilot talking to himself, and put on his seat belt in a serious manner.Yao Qianhong was driving on the road, and wanted to talk to him several times on the way, but Xia Shi forcibly ended the conversation with an indifferent tone, and the scene was once very embarrassing.Yao Qianhong thought about the harmonious scene when he and he first reunited, and then looked at his current expression of "my mother is not happy that I play with you, so you should go away", my heart suddenly had mixed feelings, and I couldn't help but He glanced back at Zhou Tang - he knew that Xia Shi would sometimes protect his weaknesses.But it was the first time he saw it like this.

Zhou Tang was explaining Luo Mozhong to Sen Luo, and he didn't pay attention to Yao Qianhong's eyes.Yao Qianhong withdrew his gaze depressedly, and focused his attention on the steering wheel in his hand. Suddenly, Sen Luo said hesitantly: "Well...it's the Luomo clock you mentioned, I have a little problem..."

Yao Qianhong: "Well, tell me."

"Didn't you say that his spiritual power is almost exhausted?" Sen Luo said, "Since it has declined to the point of dying, where does he have the strength to curse others? I don't understand their spirits very well, but people No matter how you think about it, the operation of rebirth should take a lot of effort, right?"

He has never done anything smart since he appeared on the stage, so what he said now makes sense.Yao Qianhong glanced at Xia Shi hesitantly, and was about to speak with a "hmm", when Xia Shi was already thinking, "Let's struggle to the death."

Because the desire to survive is too strong, so I perform supernormally or something...

"Is that so?" Sen Luo scratched his head, the confusion on his face still undiminished, "That's also very strange."

Zhou Tang glanced at him: "How to say?"

"Tsk, it's not that it's strange, it's just that it's relatively rare. This kind of attitude..." Sen Luo said somewhat incomprehensibly, "I can see the age of the spirit, sometimes when I see older people, I will go up A few questions. Then those spirits—mainly physical spirits—I feel that they are quite indifferent to age, life and death. They are created out of nothing, so it doesn’t matter even if they disappear. When the time is up, it’s up. To go is to go, and most of them give me this feeling. And this is the first time I really see someone like this clock who wants to survive in every possible way."

It was his first time, but Zhou Tang and Xia Shi were not.Almost immediately, both of them thought of Huali, who wanted to continue to "live" even at the expense of plundering human life. Fear of death and longing for life.And Luo Mozhong—according to Yao Qianhong, he is indeed a pure spirit.But most of the spirits are indifferent, calm, and easygoing. Like Luo Mozhong, they are indeed like forest spirits.

As Luo said, it is a rare extreme.

"It's probably out of obsession." Xia Shi said lightly.Whether it is obsession or strong desire, when the desire to change or retain something is strong enough, even ordinary people can do things that are unreasonable or even unthinkable, let alone spirits?

"Well, it makes sense." Sen Luo nodded, leaned back on the back of the chair with a "snap", stretched his arms comfortably, and complained unceremoniously: "But this clock is annoying. Since you want to If you want to survive, you need to give more hints. People play escape rooms, at least they still have some clues, but it doesn’t even have any clues. It just keeps reviving people—it doesn’t give any hints, God knows how to keep it alive."

"Maybe it doesn't know itself." Yao Qianhong responded, "Maybe it just wants us to find a way."

"Then do you have a solution?" Xia Shi asked him, "other than kidnapping Bai Xisheng?"

"Yes." Yao Qianhong replied, "Take him to a place with abundant spiritual power, and let the two beings, Tiao Tiao and Xiao Bai, fill him with spiritual power in turn until he recovers. This is what we are currently doing. The simplest and most effective method I can think of, but this Luo Mozhong himself is evil, every time he has a way to kill himself before we implement this plan."

"That's quite drunk." Xia Shi replied, and stopped talking.Sitting in the back and listening, Zhou Tang faintly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it out. He only had time to catch a huge black shadow, like a fish's tail flicking lightly, and then disappeared into the water in the blink of an eye.

He was confused, when he heard the ringing sound, Yao Qianhong's cell phone rang.

Yao Qianhong was driving and it was inconvenient to answer. He glanced at the caller ID and threw the phone to Xia Shi, saying, "It's Xiaobai."

When Xia Shi heard the words, he turned on the speakerphone directly, and just said "Hello", when he heard Xiaobai's panicked voice coming from inside.

"They took the man away, and Lao She is driving after him!"

Yao Qianhong: "...what?"

"Hello? Who are you? I'm looking for Yao Qianhong!"

Yao Qianhong: "...well, I am!"

"Don't enter Laotou Street, everything is messed up!"

Yao Qianhong: "...Xiao Bai, don't worry, just speak slowly. What's the situation now?"

"Those people kidnapped Bai Xisheng, Luomo is on fire!"

Yao Qianhong: "...?!"

Zhou Tang didn't hear clearly, so he probed over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I don't know." Xiaobai spoke in a confused and vague manner, and Xia Shi was also confused, "It seems that Luo Mozhong...is on fire? Maybe someone took a picture of him and posted it on Weibo?"

Yao Qianhong: "..."

Not!
