local demon bureau

Yu Jianying called to chat with Xie Ya for a few words, and talked about her recent situation. When the two of them were silent with their mobile phones, they spoke with difficulty: "How is that child?"

What he asked was of course the half-demon born to Gou Xinbai and Yu Jinglei. Yu Jianying had complicated feelings for that child. It was not only the child of his enemy, but also the only blood of his sister. He was childish and innocent. Even if he understood this truth, he couldn’t easily Be magnanimous.

He hesitated for a long time whether to make this call, and only now did he muster up the courage to open his mouth to ask Xie Ya about the child's condition.

Xie Ya didn't hide anything, and told Yu Jianying everything about the child's adoption and retirement.

"Then no one cares about him now?" Yu Jianying couldn't help raising her voice.

"The Monster Management Bureau sent him back to the clan, and their clan handed him over to an old... old man to take care of him, and the old man was very patient with him." Xie Ya's words were tactful. As someone who had contact with monsters, Yu Jianying naturally listened. Out of the meaning of his words.

My heart suddenly tightened, "No...won't you eat him?"

Because of Gou Xinbai's incident, in his eyes, demons are all unscrupulous and dangerous existences that can easily take human lives, and he can't help but worry about that child.

"No, after all, they have half of their blood, and now they can't eat people, and they will be severely punished if caught." Xie Ya took a puff of cigarette and explained slowly.

"That's good, that's good..." Yu Jianying's voice became smaller and smaller, and after another period of silence, he said to Xie Ya as if he had made up his mind: "If there is anything, I hope the senior can contact me."

The implication is that if the child is really reduced to the point where nobody cares, Yu Jianying is willing to care.

Hearing what Yu Jianying said, Xie Ya's hand holding the cigarette stopped slightly. He thought that Yu Jianying's emotions towards this child should be disgust, fear, hatred, etc., but he really didn't expect Yu Jianying to be willing to take over this child.

"Well, study hard, if you need help, you can call me." Xie Ya paused, and then said: "Don't look at the old man who is raising him now, their lives are much longer than ours."

Maybe both of them have turned into ashes, but they are still in good spirits.

Yu Jianying was startled when he heard the words, then smiled and said, "That's right, thank you senior."

After talking on the phone with Yu Jianying, Xie Ya dimmed the cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can. The child who was digging through the trash moved aside, Xie Ya inadvertently caught a glimpse of the face under the brim of the hat, "Zhuo Xiaohan?"

Zhuo Xiaohan raised his head upon hearing the sound, revealing his dark brown vertical pupils, "Brother Xie Ya?"

Xie Ya went to return his student ID before, and Zhuo Xiaohan happened to be looking through his schoolbag anxiously outside the school at that time, for this big brother who helped him twice, Zhuo Xiaohan subconsciously got close to him.

"Well, are you looking for this?" Xie Ya handed him the finished mineral water bottle.

Zhuo Xiaohan's face became hot, and he took the mineral water bottle and put it in the bag with some embarrassment, "Thank you."

Seeing his embarrassed face, Xie Ya knew that he definitely didn't want him to see him digging through the trash can here. Zhuo Xiaohan's clothes were very old and even had pudding, but they were washed very clean. If it wasn't for his poor family, he would How can a child of this age come out to pick up trash without having time to play.

"Have you had lunch yet?" Xie Ya squatted down to be at eye level with him, and asked.

"Eat." As soon as the words fell, Zhuo Xiaohan's stomach groaned, his little face suddenly burned red, and his head was almost buried in his chest.

"Wait for me." Xie Ya stood up and went to Mike Chicken next to him to buy a family bucket, and handed it to Zhuo Xiaohan along with two glasses of iced Coke.

He had heard about Mike’s chicken from his classmates a long time ago. It’s very delicious. They eat it several times a week, either with friends or on weekends, but some students’ parents won’t let them eat it, saying It's junk food, not healthy, so they eat it secretly, and it tastes really good.

Zhuo Xiaohan's grandfather had saved money for a long time, and bought him a set meal with hamburger and chicken drumsticks. In the end, Zhuo Xiaohan forced his grandfather to share the food with him. He remembered the taste for a long time, probably he had eaten it before. Best food ever.

Now when I smell it, I subconsciously swallow several mouthfuls of saliva.

"Eat quickly." Xie Ya patted his back lightly.

"No... no need, thank you brother." You don't get paid for nothing, you can't take other people's things casually, this was taught to him by his grandfather since he was a child.

Xie Ya couldn't see what he was thinking, so he pretended to be annoyed and said, "This item can't be returned either. I just had lunch and my stomach is still full. If you don't eat it, then I can only waste it and throw it in the trash."

"Ah? You can't throw it away, it's wrong to waste food!" Zhuo Xiaohan stood up in shock, his eyes widened.

"Then can Xiao Han eat it for my brother?" Xie Ya asked with his head turned sideways.

Zhuo Xiaohan hesitated for a while, "Then...that's fine."

He took the family bucket with both hands, picked up a chicken leg and took a bite. The tender and delicious chicken leg, the gravy splashed in his mouth, so delicious that he couldn't help but widen his eyes, shining brightly.

After eating a chicken leg and a hamburger, Zhuo Xiaohan hugged the family bucket like a baby and said, "I'll take it back for grandpa to eat."

Xie Ya handed him a piece of toilet paper and asked him to wipe the corners of his mouth. Like most children, Zhuo Xiaohan likes to drink Coke, and the Coke was filled with ice, which made him close his eyes and couldn't stop.

"Where are your parents?"

"I don't have parents." Zhuo Xiaohan's tone was normal, as if he didn't think it was a big deal, he raised his head and showed a big smile to Xie Ya, "But I have a grandpa, my grandpa is fine!"

"Does your family live on Haitang Road?" Xie Ya guessed that Zhuo Xiaohan was dependent on his grandfather, and planned to write down his address and let Ma Su and the others check the situation of their home.

"En." Zhuo Xiaohan nodded, and told Xie Ya his home address.

"Do you come here often?" Xie Ya didn't directly mention picking up trash. Although the child is young, he is already sensible and has self-respect, so he wouldn't like to hear others say that about him.

"Well, there are many people in the hospital, and you can pick up a lot of things that can be sold." Zhuo Xiaohan's fair cheeks glowed with enthusiasm.

Xie Ya patted his head, "Xiao Han is awesome, he will make money."

Hearing Xie Ya's words, Zhuo Xiaohan opened his eyes wide in surprise, and immediately showed a big smile, "Brother Xie Ya, you are a very good person."

"Can you come here at this time tomorrow at noon too? I have something I want to tell you." Xie Ya remembered that his grandfather put away his clothes when he was a child. Zhuo Xiaohan should be able to wear them, and he would not even ask him to eat. It's a pity that I won't accept new clothes for giving him, but clean and intact old clothes are fine.

"Okay!" Zhuo Xiaohan thought that Xie Ya needed help with something, of course he was very happy to be able to help Xie Ya.

As agreed with Zhuo Xiaohan, Xie Ya will not be out for a short time, and the smell of cigarettes has long since dissipated from his body.

Pushing open the door and entering the ward, I saw Lu Fangchao talking to Ji Lingqu. Although he was very weak, he was fortunately awake.

Xie Ya walked into the bathroom and splashed cold water on his face, when he raised his face again, his eyes were red, the water droplets rolled down, and his collar was wet.

In the mirror, Ji Lingqu quietly appeared behind him, "Why don't you say anything? You startled me."

Xie Ya grinned, Ji Lingqu's thin lips were slightly drawn, and he stretched out his hand to grab his wrist, frowning, "The eyes are so red."

"It's okay, maybe the water got into the eyes." Xie Ya raised his hand to block Ji Lingqu's sight.

Ji Lingqu pulled his hand down, and a pair of red and wet eyes caught his sight unexpectedly. Ji Lingqu's heart trembled, and following his own heart, he lowered his head and kissed his eyelids gently, "Don't cry, my heart hurts."

The sourness in his nose was catalyzed by Ji Lingqu's words, Xie Ya gritted his teeth and pressed his head on Ji Lingqu's shoulder, whimpering softly, like a trapped animal.

Ji Lingqu wasn't talking about love, he really had a heartache, and when he saw Xie Ya crying, his heart ached so badly, it was as if he had a heart attack.

It took a long time for the two of them to get out of the bathroom, Lu Fangchao fell asleep again, Xie Ya walked over quickly, felt Lu Fangchao's usual pulse, and the tense skin and flesh all over his body relaxed.

Sitting on the sofa in a daze for a while, Xie Ya suddenly remembered what Mei Shutong told him. He turned his head to look at Ji Lingqu, and met Ji Lingqu's deep eyes. I don't know how long Ji Lingqu looked at him.

This thought made Xie Ya's heart beat like a drum, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.

"What?" Ji Lingqu broke the silence between the two.

"I..." Xie Ya's lips murmured, and he didn't know how to continue the sentence as soon as he uttered a word.

Take several deep breaths, clenched and loosened your clenched fists, and so on.

"I heard that mermaid tears can raise the bones of the dead. Is it true?"

Ji Lingqu nodded, "It's true."

Xie Ya tightened his fists suddenly, his heart beat like a big drum, "Then do you have it?"

Under Xie Ya's expectant eyes, Ji Lingqu shook his head, "I don't."

There are very few mermaids in this world. After they die, they will take mermaid tears with them. Tears have extraordinary meaning to them. They come with them when they are born and go with them when they die. Their souls Only then can he return to the embrace of the Sea God.

They are well aware of the greed of human beings, and they will not easily shed mermaid tears, and it is useless for Ji Lingqu to hold this thing. He likes shiny gold and silver jewelry, the more dazzling and valuable the better.

Not interested in mermaid tears.

If he had known that today would come, he should have tried to stock up more.

Xie Ya's bright eyes darkened again, Ji Lingqu hated him the most, frowned and said, "I can look for it."

Hearing Ji Lingqu's words, Xie Ya suddenly opened his eyes wide, and he heard Ji Lingqu say: "If you want you to speak, I will do it for you."

"I..." Xie Ya opened his mouth, his fingers gripped the corner of Ji Lingqu's clothes, and he couldn't continue when he was on the verge of speaking.

He remembered that Mei Shutong said that in the cycle of karma, if you want to get something, you must pay the same or even double the price. It is impossible for him to let Ji Lingqu take this risk for him, even if Ji Lingqu seems to have an extraordinary background.

Lu Fangchao ate some liquid food for dinner, but he was still not in good spirits, Xie Ya wiped his face, hands and feet meticulously.

"I'll go back tomorrow morning, you go back to sleep." Xie Ya said to Ji Lingqu.

"I'll accompany you." After Ji Lingqu said these three words, he stopped talking.

Xie Ya asked Ji Lingqu to sleep on the accompanying bed, he was shorter than Ji Lingqu, so it was just right for him to sleep on the sofa.

The night was as cool as water, and the whole hospital fell into silence. The clock was ticking, and the hour hand pointed to three o'clock. Xie Ya got up like a ghost and walked to the bedside. He felt Lu Fangchao's pulse carefully to make sure he was still breathing. , sitting on a chair staring at him lost in thought.

At 03:30, Xie Ya tucked the blanket for Lu Fangchao and went back to lie down on the sofa.

Lu Fang, who had kept her eyes closed, raised her eyelids, and saw Ji Lingqu nodding between Xie Ya's brows, covering Xie Ya with the quilt.

Xie Ya's breathing gradually stabilized, and he was already in a deep sleep. Ji Lingqu's fingers touched his face, caressing him gently, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle.

Lu Fang's heart skipped a beat when he saw this scene. When he mentioned Ji Lingqu's marriage contract with Xie Ya, he really wanted to find someone to rely on for Xie Ya. He knew that if he went, Xie Ya would really be helpless in this world. Kiss, this kid looks carefree, but actually he is very thoughtful, not to mention that Xie Ya is also involved with Tianzhu, and he is afraid that he will find a murderous disaster in the future.

After all, it was Xie Ya's turn to inherit his position. Even if Ji Lingqu didn't mean that to Xie Ya, at least he would guarantee Xie Ya's safety.

However, he didn't expect that Ji Lingqu would really fall in love with Xie Ya.

Lu Fangchao's eyes flickered, he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, before he left, he had to entrust everything to Xie Ya, could the relationship between the two of them survive this change?

……

Xie Ya gave Zhuo Xiaohan his old clothes, Zhuo Xiaohan was both surprised and happy, and hurriedly waved his hand to refuse. Hearing that Xie Ya said that they were old clothes from his childhood, I hope he would not dislike him. Zhuo Xiaohan opened the bag and looked at it, confirming that Xie Ya Didn't she accept it gratefully after coaxing him, those dark brown vertical pupils shone like gems in the sun.

Xie Ya couldn't help being dumbfounded, Zhuo Xiaohan noticed his gaze, quickly lowered the brim of his hat, and shrank his neck.

"Don't... don't look, it's scary, they all say I'm a monster."

Xie Ya knelt down and told him earnestly: "It's not scary, it's very beautiful, I was dumbfounded just now."

Zhuo Xiaohan raised his head in surprise, met Xie Ya's gaze, then lowered his head hastily, clutching the hem of his clothes with both hands, "Brother Xie Ya, don't lie to me, I used to scare people."

"Don't you believe brother?" Xie Ya squatted in front of him and asked softly.

"I believe! Brother Xie Ya is the second best person I've ever met." Zhuo Xiaohan raised his head in panic.

Xie Ya couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "I'm the second best, so who is the first?"

Zhuo Xiaohan frowned, showing a bright smile, "It's my grandfather."

……

After Lu Fangchao woke up, he stayed in the hospital for another three days, and then he wanted to go back. Xie Ya asked the doctor what he meant.

On a sunny day, Xie Ya's blood froze all over his body, and his heart seemed to be covered with ice.

"But... But he obviously looks good." Xie Ya retorted in panic.

The doctor was used to seeing relatives like Xie Ya, and still couldn't bear it, so he could only comfort him a few words.

Xie Ya stumbled out of the doctor's office, as if his soul had been taken away, he smoked two cigarettes on the balcony before entering.

Ji Lingqu smelled the smoke on Xie Ya's body with a keen sense of smell, his eyes dimmed, and he reached out to hold his hand, "Why is it so cold?"

"The wind blows outside for a while, and it will warm up later." Xie Ya raised the corners of his lips, although his expression was smiling, but his eyes were full of sadness, and Ji Lingqu's heart suddenly seemed to be pricked densely with needles.

"Don't laugh if you don't want to." Ji Lingqu pressed Xie Ya's lips with his thumb, holding his face up.

Xie Ya's expression froze for a moment, and the corners of his lips curled down slowly, "Ji Lingqu, can you really find mermaid tears?"

Ji Lingqu stared at him with deep eyes, and said loudly, "I can."

"Then..." Xie Ya said, his voice was hoarse and trembling.

He grasped Ji Lingqu's sleeve tightly, looking up at Ji Lingqu's pupils trembling slightly, "Can you..."

"Xie Ya!" Lu Fangchao roared angrily, and as soon as he finished speaking, he began to cough violently, his whole face flushed red.

Xie Ya was so frightened that he hurried over to cheer him up, "Grandpa, don't get angry."

"Cough, cough, cough..." Lu Fangchao was about to cough up tears. He tightly grasped Xie Ya's wrist, his skinny hand was surprisingly strong, his eyes were red, and he almost gritted his teeth and said, "You want to be the second one!" Thank you Bisheng?!"

Xie Ya trembled all over, and he froze in place, unable to speak for a long time.

Xie Bisheng is Xie Ya's biological father. No matter how much Xie Ya's mother loves this man, in Lu Fangchao's eyes, he is a complete villain, a hypocrite, who can do anything for his own self-interest, and is the type of person Lu Fangchao hates the most. Teach Xie Ya to be kind to others, be open-minded, and never do things that harm others to benefit oneself.

He knew that it was not easy to get Mermaid Tears, but he still spoke to Ji Lingqu, because Ji Lingqu was unpredictable and omnipotent, and because he was in a hurry, thinking that Ji Lingqu was so powerful, it shouldn't be difficult to get Mermaid Tears , There is no need to pay a huge price at all, maybe choose one of his mountain of treasures to exchange, and you will be able to get your wish.

"I...I'm not..." Xie Ya was flustered and couldn't say a complete sentence for a long while.

It wasn't until Lu Fangchao's breathing became stable and he stopped coughing violently that he clenched his fists, his eyes were red, and he said in a hoarse voice: "I just don't want you to leave me..."

A thin hand held Xie Ya's hand. Lu Fangchao had needle holes on the back of his hand due to the infusion, and his hand was dry and warm. When Xie Ya was young, as long as these hands held him, he could feel at ease.

Lu Fangchao patted the back of his hand, and said earnestly: "Xiao Ya, no one will stay by your side forever. Sooner or later, one of you will have to go first. You are no longer a child. My fate has come. If you go against the sky, how can the law of the sky be gone?" I will tolerate it, anyone in this world who wanted to go against the heavens and change their fate has paid a huge price, you asked Ling Qu to find the elixir for me, do you want to use his life to replace mine?"

"No! No!" Xie Ya flustered like an ignorant child. He had never thought of this before. Grandpa was very important to him, and Ji Lingqu was also very important to him. If he could risk his life, he would only use own life.

Seeing this, Ji Lingqu wanted to go forward to comfort Xie Ya, but Lu Fangchao shook his head calmly at him. He had to make Xie Ya never have such thoughts again. Darkness and light are only one step away. If he took that step, he would definitely do anything for other things in the future. Lu Fangchao was determined not to let Xie Ya become a person like Xie Bisheng.

"Xie Ya, promise me that you will never do anything for me that you shouldn't do." Lu Fangchao grabbed Xie Ya's wrist, his gaze was as sharp as a goshawk, and it was scary dark.

He stared at Xie Ya urgently, every word seemed to be chiseled into Xie Ya's heart, "Otherwise I will turn into a ghost and never be reborn."

"No! Please, grandpa, don't curse yourself like that." Xie Ya's face turned pale with fright, and even his lips lost color, but Lu Fangchao seemed unable to see his fragility, and refused to give in, "You promise me."

"I...I promise you." Xie Ya clenched his fists tightly, the veins in his arms popped out, his eyes were red, like a trapped animal covered in bruises.

"You go and wash your face, I have something to tell Lingqu." Lu Fangchao drove the person away indifferently, Xie Ya was stunned, and staggered into the bathroom.

"Why do you treat him like this." Ji Lingqu stood in front of Lu Fangchao's bed, he could see that Lu Fangchao was no better than Xie Ya.

"I don't have much time, he relies too much on me." Lu Fangchao closed his eyes wearily, and slowly opened them a minute later, staring deeply at Ji Lingqu with vicissitudes of life, "Lingqu, Xiaoya will be handed over to you." is you."

Ji Lingqu's eyes moved slightly, and he suddenly sensed Lu Fangchao's deep meaning. There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, and he quickly returned to normal, "Well, I will take good care of him."

A smile appeared on Lu Fangchao's face, "When he was just born, his voice was so loud that the doctors and nurses who delivered the baby cried so much that they remembered him."

"Speaking of which, when Xiao Ya was just born, the adults hugged him and blessed him. I didn't expect that there is such a relationship between you after going around."

Following Lu Fangchao's recollection, Ji Lingqu also remembered what happened when Xie Ya was born, the small ball looked so fragile that he didn't dare to touch it for a while, but the little guy unexpectedly liked him and kept holding on to his waist Keeping his fingers still made Ji Lingqu's calm and unwavering heart a little joyful. Perhaps from then on, Xie Ya was destined to be different from him.

"I can help you bring Lu Yinghe here."

Mentioning Lu Yinghe, Lu Fangchao felt a little strange for a while, his unfeeling daughter, Lu Fangchao had long been disheartened by her, even if she hated him after so many years, and didn't want to see him anymore, Xie Ya was innocent, why didn't she Would you like to come back and take a look at Xie Ya?

"No, I have nothing to say to her, and we don't need to meet again." The only thing Lu Fangchao couldn't let go of was Xie Ya.

He sighed a long time, and said: "Xiaoya suffers a lot in his heart, I hope adults can give him some sweetness, Xiaoya is a child who attaches great importance to feelings, and he will repay you."

Lu Fangchao looked through the closed door and fell on Xie Ya with distress.

How Ji Lingqu couldn't see that Lu Fangchao was worried about Xie Ya, he solemnly promised: "Whether it's Tianzhu or the spiritual power on him, I will not let him be in danger."

"Once this incident is over, the rest of his life will be sweet and not bitter."

Lu Fangchao's heart trembled, "Okay...Okay."

Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is only a few days away, Xie Ya took Lu Fangchao home to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Ji Lingqu imitated Xie Ya and made several months of cakes. It was made by Xie Ya, so although they didn't look good, they tasted good.

After Lu Fangchao was discharged from the hospital, Meng Yangyu's family came to visit him with big bags and small bags. Aunt Yang stewed supplements for Lu Fangchao in different ways every day. Unfortunately, Lu Fangchao couldn't eat too much now, so they all went to Xie Ya's. In his mouth, he made up for the few kilograms that Xie Ya lost.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather was fine, the moon was round and bright, and the Bureau of Demon Management also distributed benefits, moon cakes and two vouchers, which were delivered to him on the way when Ma Speed ​​ran at night, "There is nothing going on in the bureau recently, Sister Tong asked you Don't rush back to work."

"Okay, thank you Brother Ma, I made mooncakes myself, you can bring some back to Sister Tong and the others." Xie Ya went back to the house and filled a big bag for Ma Su, who felt a little greedy when he smelled it.

"Okay, thank you, I'll go back first." Ma Su waved his hand to say goodbye to Xie Ya, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

Before closing the courtyard door, Xie Ya saw that the lights next door were still on, and the decoration workers were coming in and out, working overtime. He took out his mobile phone and searched for the variety show. It was quite popular. This is already the second season. Currently The announced guests include singer Quan Yuyin and popular traffic Li Ye.

Xie Ya had an impression of Li Ye. He starred in the popular puppet show a few days ago. To be honest, his acting skills are quite eye-catching, but he couldn't stand the fact that he has a lot of fans, so he raised the petal score to [-]:[-] in a daze.

There is also a little flower with good acting skills, but I heard that her character is not good, and she likes to find someone to read the night light script.

Xie Ya flipped twice and got bored, so he backed out.

Lu Fangchao was sleeping on a deck chair in the yard, and waved to him. Xie Ya walked over quickly, "This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is quite round."

Xie Ya sat down next to him, "Well, next year will definitely be round."

Lu Fangchao laughed: "It rained last year, how can there be such a good thing."

"If you don't believe me, see next year." Xie Ya's clear eyes fixed on Lu Fangchao.

Lu Fang smiled slightly, lay back, and did not speak.

The smile on Xie Ya's face gradually disappeared, and the disappointment in his eyes could not be concealed.

"Xiao Ya, I have kept some things from you for a long time, it's time for you to know." Lu Fang's eyes filled with deep meaning made Xie Ya flustered for no reason.

"what?"

"About our Lu family and Lord Lingqu."
