"Xiao Yu'er, the things you brought back this time are not fun at all." Ren Qianfan sat on the stone bench, his thin back straightened, and he turned sideways arrogantly, dismissing the things on the stone table.

Yu Yan picked up the spherical object on the stone table, a recreation created by humans, whether it was a decoration or a toy, he saw a girl throwing it in the weeds when he was walking by the river some time ago.

He has seen similar crystal balls before, and he has seen them many times in rooms of the undead, or in a variety of small shops, but he ignored them because of their unattractive appearance. , Yu Yan was surprised and couldn't help feeling joyful.

Just like every time he found a life other than human beings, he was like a treasure. Isn't music just a kind of life?It is more expressive and rendering than humans, no matter what type of music.

What's more, the scene in this crystal ball is different from others. There are a few trees and a small wooden house much shorter than the trees. Snowflakes, combined with green trees and low houses, form a unique snow scene in winter.

Yu Yan turned the crystal ball on the base, but found that there was no flickering blue light, and the music was not streaming out. He held it in his hand and looked carefully, and said, "The battery is out."

Ren Qianfan turned around, stared wide-eyed and said, "The battery will run out so soon? I can even use it for lighting! It works at all, Xiao Yu'er, don't just pick up such things that others don't want in the future."

Yu Yan didn't have the habit of picking up trash, he just fell in love with this little thing at first sight, and he couldn't put it down before he took it away.He didn't explain, and silently put the crystal ball flat in front of him, and said, "I see."

"Hey, let's play chess, let me go to the backyard of the temple and take out that set of chess." Ren Qianfan got up and was about to leave the gazebo.

Yu Yan stopped him: "Uncle Ren, I don't want to play chess."

"Why? You don't want to play chess, do you want me to teach you how to write?" Ren Qianfan put his hands behind his back with a little trouble, "Didn't that fellow Fu Jianchi teach you for hundreds of years?"

"No." Yu Yan looked up, looking helplessly at the elder who had "survived" like them in the world for more than 1000 years, "I don't know how to play chess, Mr. Fu is better at it."

After he finished speaking, he involuntarily glanced at the path outside the gazebo leading to the road outside, and it was pitch black at the moment.

"Forget it, seeing you so absent-minded, I'm not interested." Ren Qianfan flicked his sleeves, sat down slowly, looked at Yu Yan and said with a smile: "Don't look, it's just been walking for a few months , People will naturally come back when it’s time to come back.”

"It's almost half a year." Yu Yan said habitually using the human way of calculating time.

Ren Qianfan said disapprovingly, "What's half a year? Even if it's one year, three years, five years, neither of you will change anything. He is your boss, and he won't get old or get hurt. There's nothing to worry about."

Indeed, for them, no matter how long the past has passed, it will not affect themselves in any way.Time is like a silent river. They are people standing on the bank, and they can watch the dynamics of its passage from a bird's-eye view. Even if they stretch out their hands with compassion, time will not do anything for it stay.

It is these two forms that do not affect each other, safe in this world.

"Anyway, I don't need to do those dispatch tasks during this period of time. It's hard to take a vacation. Why not relax?"

Yu Yan nodded, it's only been half a year, and he spent several years with those undead in the past. Mr. Fu said that one must learn to be calm and orderly in order to do things.He looked at the dim crystal ball, thinking about how to continue to pass the time.

Unexpectedly, Ren Qianfan changed the subject and said with a smile: "But I don't think you have time to relax."

Yu Yan looked at him strangely, then turned his head following his gaze.

"Mr. Fu." Yu Yan stood up, and brushed the hand on the table next to the crystal ball, and then there was a "bang".

The transparent glass was torn apart, the liquid inside was spilled all over the floor, and a few decorative trees were scattered on it. The small wooden house fell at the foot, and the whole was turned upside down, with the roof facing the ground.

"Xiao Yu'er, isn't the way you greet your boss too grand?" Ren Qianfan sat next to him and spoke first with a smile.

Fu Jianchi glanced at the remnants on the ground, and asked, "What is this?"

"Crystal ball, a human toy." Yu Yan lowered his head to hide the disappointed expression on his face, the thing he loved was messed up by himself.

I thought that Mr. Fu would blame carelessness, but the other party just said calmly: "If it is broken, it will be broken."

Yu Yan looked up at him, hesitated to speak, and finally responded softly: "Yes."

"Old Fu, we were still talking about you just now, why did it take so long this time, and it took half a year to come back?" Ren Qianfan gestured to the position next to him with his eyes, and asked casually like a family.

"Long?" Fu Jianchi just sat down, and asked back, with a slight doubt in his tone.

Ren Qianfan raised his chin towards Yu Yan who was standing beside him, and said, "That's not what I said."

"I didn't say long." Yu Yan retorted immediately.

Fu Jianchi's expression was unwavering, and he explained to him: "There are some things that need to be dealt with in the underworld, and it has been delayed."

Yu Yan nodded and said, "So there is a new task now?"

"That's right." After Fu Jianchi finished speaking, he stared at Yu Yan who was standing beside the stone bench blankly: "Why don't you sit down?"

Yu Yan was puzzled and asked back: "Aren't we going to leave now?"

"Little Yu'er, why don't you want to spend more time with me? What's the rush of work? Even if your errand is over ten or eight days late, it doesn't matter." Ren Qianfan stretched his neck with a displeased expression.

Yu Yan was worried about making Uncle Ren angry, and was thinking about how to explain it, when he caught sight of the downcast man from the corner of his eye, with a strange arc on his mouth, as if he was smiling faintly.

"Uncle Ren, I didn't mean that..."

"It doesn't mean that. What do you mean? You shouted to leave when you just came. It seems that you really don't want to face me as an old stubborn."

Ren Qianfan put his hands into his left and right sleeves, as if he was not ready to accept an explanation, which made Yu Yan even more confused about how to resolve the other party's displeasure, so he had to look at his boss who was an old friend with Uncle Ren.

"Okay, stop teasing him." Fu Jianchi spoke at the right time and reminded him coldly.

"I just said a few words and you--" Before Ren Qianfan finished speaking, his mouth was blocked by Han's sharp eyes, he coughed dryly, flicked his sleeves, and said to Yu Yan reluctantly: "Hurry up, so as not to disturb you here I clean up."

Fu Jianchi stood up, gestured to Yu Yan with his eyes, and the two were about to walk out of the pavilion.

"Old Fu, is there something you forgot to say?" Ren Qianfan's voice became a little serious.

Fu Jianchi said: "Didn't he come to see you some time ago?"

"It's been a while, I'm asking now."

"He's on a business trip in Yucheng."

Ren Qianfan frowned: "Yucheng? I hope he won't run into that person."

Fu Jianchi walked away, Yu Yan hurriedly said to the tricky elder: "Uncle Ren, let's go."

"Go, Xiao Yu'er." Uncle Ren waved to him with a smile.

They came to a wide road, when it began to rain, and the big raindrops came rushing down.Fu Jianchi set up an enchantment, and the two of them didn't even get a drop of rain. They looked at the man standing in the warning area in the middle of the road.

The man was wearing a black coat, his face was pale, and he had a sick feeling that he hadn't seen the sun for a long time. He stood in the rain as if nothing had happened, observing the vehicles and people in the warning area.The front of the car was crushed and deformed by the strong impact, and the rain rushed in through the broken window. It is not difficult to see from the tragic situation that a car accident just happened here.

Several people passed through the man's body, but he remained indifferent until the wounded man was carried out from the narrow car. He just watched calmly. The wounded man was wearing the same dark coat as his, and his pale complexion was stained with a lot of blood. , looks even more creepy.

"Is he looking at himself?" Yu Yan rarely encountered such undead who behaved differently from ordinary people, and they often had distinctive identities when they were alive.

Fu Jianchi didn't answer, and confirmed the identity of the undead: "He is Wu Jiu."

Standing still for a long time, until the appalling car was towed away by a bigger car, the scene was cleaned up, and all the uniformed personnel dispersed, Wu Jiu came back to his senses from a dream, and he watched the car containing the body that had lost its temperature. , as if saying goodbye after reuniting with a friend he hadn't seen for many years, Yusi slipped from his hair to his lost shoulders, his expression was tranced and intense.

Yu Yan felt that it was time to get acquainted with the other party, so he prepared to walk out of the barrier.

"Wait for him to come." Fu Jianchi's voice rang in his ears.

Yu Yan took back the step forward, glanced at him, and obediently waited for the target undead to come towards them this time.

When approaching, Yu Yan left the barrier and called to stop the man: "Wu Jiu."

Wu Jiu turned his head, his face was covered with rain, he squinted his eyes to look at Yu Yan, and remained silent.

"I'm here to help you fulfill your last wish." Due to the harsh rainy environment, Yu Yan introduced himself as briefly as possible. After he finished speaking, he found that the rain had stopped falling. When he looked around, he realized that Mr. Fu had just set it up when he approached. Enchantment, Yu Yan looked up at the other party with grateful eyes.

"Help me, who is dead, fulfill my last wish?" Wu Jiu quickly understood and repeated his own point.

"Yes, is there anything you wanted to accomplish but didn't?"

Wu Jiu pondered for a moment, seemed to be digesting his words, and asked without answering, "Is it true that every person who dies will become a wandering spirit in the world?"

"Not necessarily, but human beings who have become wandering souls exist in this world because they have unfulfilled long-cherished wishes."

Wu Jiu wiped off the rain on his face with his sleeve, and the wet hair stuck to his forehead, he replied calmly, "I have it too."

Yu Yan didn't expect the other party to cooperate so much, and said, "What is it?"

Wu Jiu looked to the front left, where there was a lake with undulating water, "I'm going somewhere, can you help me?"

"of course can."

"Need to drive, I can't drive in my current state, can you drive?" Although Wu Jiu didn't ask much, he clearly guessed that they were not ordinary humans.

Yu Yan looked at Fu Jianchi for help, and Fu Jianchi said, "Yes."

"Then let's go now."

Yu Yan suddenly thought: "But isn't your car already destroyed?"

Wu Jiu turned his head, looked at him with some doubts, and said, "My car is at home, you guys go with me."
