"Sorry, I really didn't expect this to happen." Although Wu Xiao was shocked by the fact in front of him, he could only accept this incredible answer. Although he could see ghosts when he was young, but since he grew up After he grew up, he almost never got in touch with such things. He thought that he had lost this ability, but he didn't expect that he had been in contact with ghosts all the time, but he didn't realize it...

Wu Xiao looked at Lu Qingjiu and said seriously: "I am willing to provide generous compensation for dismissing you. If you are willing, I would like to invite you back to the company again..." His tone and eyes were very sincere, and he could see It was a sincere apology to Lu Qingjiu.

Lu Qingjiu refused, and he refused very frankly: "You don't need to feel guilty, in fact, even if there is no such thing, I will resign myself."

"Why?" Wu Xiao asked suspiciously, "You...you didn't want to comfort me, did you?"

"Of course not." Lu Qingjiu said with a smile, "It's not that a child needs to find his parents after being bullied. If I really don't want to leave, I will definitely ask you for an explanation about my dismissal." It can be solved, and naturally there is no need to continue to this day.

Wu Xiao thought about it, and it was indeed the case. After he notified Lu Qingjiu that he had to fire himself or be fired, Lu Qingjiu accepted the fact very calmly, without even arguing.At that time Wu Xiao thought he was guilty, but now that he thinks about it, he probably has something else hidden.And the reason for dismissing Lu Qingjiu is naturally not because of Lu Qingjiu's gossip, but because Wu Xiao heard Lu Qingjiu describe in the toilet a very detailed project plan of their company that was about to be finalized. Wu Xiao was hearing these contents After that, he was determined to expel Lu Qingjiu.

Seeing the complicated expression on Wu Xiao's face, Lu Qingjiu could naturally guess what his boss was thinking. He patted Wu Xiao's shoulder and said with a smile, "You really don't have to feel too guilty. I'm resigning. I chose it myself."

"Then why did you resign?" Wu Xiao still didn't want to let it go.

"Something happened to my family." Lu Qingjiu's answer to this was perfunctory, apparently not intending to explain the reason to Wu Xiao in detail.

Wu Xiao was about to ask again, but the old tree who was ignored in the toilet called out: "Jiu'er, Jiu'er, you are finally back, I miss you so much, no one talks to me after you left, I am sorry Boring." He still used Lu Qingjiu's voice, but the tone was very different, more like a naive young man.

It is said that the old tree has lived here for nearly 200 years, and its root system has spread to many places. However, although 200 years is enough for human beings, it is just a snap of the fingers for them. The old tree claims to be a child. Not without reason.

But Lu Qingjiu is already used to calling him an old tree.

"Well, I'm leaving, and I may seldom come back in the future." Lu Qingjiu said to Old Shu, "You have to take care of yourself."

The old tree was silent for a moment: "Where have you been?"

"I'm going back to my hometown." Lu Qingjiu said, "Just wait, I'll go over to see you in a while."

The old tree said, "Okay, you must come."

Wu Xiao listened to the conversation between one person and one tree, envious eyes appeared in his eyes, and he asked, "Does he talk every day?"

"Yes." Lu Qingjiu said, "I talk every day."

The old tree has very few clansmen, and there are even fewer spiritual beings who can communicate with him. Ever since he discovered that Lu Qingjiu could hear himself talking, the old tree began to mumble in the toilet every day. Lu Qingjiu went to the toilet, and when no one was around Occasionally chat with him or two.

"I heard it three or four times in half a year." Wu Xiao said, "One of them was still talking about me..."

Lu Qingjiu said: "What did you say?"

Wu Xiao coughed dryly, and changed the topic: "Stop talking about this, is there a way for me to hear him talk more often?"

Lu Qingjiu thought for a while, but he didn't answer. He really had nothing to do, but if he went back and asked Bai Yuehu, there might be some way. In fact, Wu Xiao's character was good, and he was quite righteous. Apart from his temper, he almost liked targeting him. Black spot, the old tree is really lonely after he left, so it's good to leave someone to talk to the old tree.

"Mr. Wu, that's it for today." Lu Qingjiu said, "I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first."

Wu Xiao said: "Okay, if you can help with anything, just say it." Although Lu Qingjiu said that he didn't care about being fired, Wu Xiao still felt guilty.

Lu Qingjiu nodded, turned and left.

After leaving the company, he didn't drive home in a hurry, but went to the park near the company where the old tree was located. He still wanted to talk to the old tree about something, but it was hard for him to speak because Wu Xiao was present.

It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, the streets began to become empty, and the wind also became cooler, blowing on people's faces, giving them an inexplicable sense of comfort.Lu Qingjiu walked to the park, and before he entered, he saw a lush and lush tree.Because it is midsummer, the leaves on the canopy cover the sky and the earth, almost covering most of the square.Lu Qingjiu smiled, walked in front of the big tree, sat on the flower bed, stretched out his hand and gently touched the rough trunk: "I'm back."

The trunk of the old tree shook, as if it had been scratched, and large pieces of leaves fell from the sky, like a heavy rain.

The old tree said: "Is it going well in the old house?"

"Success." Lu Qingjiu, "The old house is pretty good, but I don't have any clue about what I want to know."

The old tree said: "That matter may be just a guess."

Lu Qingjiu said: "Even if it's a guess, I have to try it." He leaned against the tree trunk and whispered, "Anyway, I'm the only one left now."

From the accidental death of his parents to the death of his grandmother due to illness, Lu Qingjiu's connection with the whole world has become more and more weak. He was busy working when he was in college, and then he had to put all his energy on work when he entered the society.Although his work partner has a good relationship with him, there are some things that are hard to talk about.At this time, Lu Qingjiu met Old Tree, a long-winded tree spirit who liked to talk but couldn't find anyone to talk to.

One person and one tree gradually became acquainted, and later when Lu Qingjiu had something to do, he would habitually tell the old tree, and the old tree also told him many things, what he wanted to know, what he didn't want to know.

The Tree Clan is different from humans. They are born with inherited memories and know many private things and methods.

Half a year ago, the old tree awakened a new ability, which can divination according to the horoscope of a person's birthday.At that time, Lao Shu originally wanted to Bu Lu Qingjiu, but was rejected by Lu Qingjiu in the end. He didn't want to know his future through hexagrams.However, he gave Lao Shu the horoscope of his parents' birthdays and asked him to make a divination.

When the hexagram came out, Lao Shu was a little strange after interpreting it, he said: "It's strange, your parents are very good, and the fate of the two is also a match made in heaven... But why did they end up like this?"

Lu Qingjiu said: "Shouldn't it be like this?"

"...It's really strange that disasters come and go." The old tree said, "Oh, maybe I didn't calculate it correctly, don't take it seriously..."

Lu Qingjiu remained silent after listening, but soon went to the company to resign and planned to return to his hometown.

The old tree knew that Lu Qingjiu took what he said to heart, but he didn't know how to persuade Lu Qingjiu. Seeing that Lu Qingjiu was determined to go, he could only wish Lu Qingjiu a smooth journey.

But now it seems that Lu Qingjiu's return to the old house is not a bad thing, at least Old Shu feels that the vitality in him has flourished a lot, which is much better than when he was working in the unit.

"I met a lot of people in the old house." Lu Qingjiu smiled and said to the old tree, "I also met a very beautiful vixen."

The old tree said: "Fox? Is it true? I haven't seen a vixen yet."

Lu Qingjiu said: "Of course it's true." He told the old tree many interesting stories about the old house, and the old tree listened with gusto, enviously said, "I'm so envious that you can go around, I also want to go to other places to see look."

"Can you change form in the future?" Lu Qingjiu asked.

"I don't know." The old tree said, "But even if it takes shape, it will be a thousand years later..." His tone fell, "At that time, I don't know what the world will be like."

Lu Qingjiu touched his rough skin: "It's okay, time will pass quickly."

The two chatted about many things. Old Shu also told Lu Qingjiu the gossip and anecdotes that happened in the company after he left. For example, A and B had a relationship in the office and dared not make it public, only to find out that both of them had cheated on each other and secretly had other lovers. , In the end, I had a hard time at the company and all resigned.Another example is that Wu Xiao's hemorrhoids have improved a little recently, but because he had a drink last week, he committed another hemorrhoid, and almost didn't go to the hospital due to acute blood loss...

Seeing the old tree talking endlessly, Lu Qingjiu could only stop quickly. With the old tree's rambunctiousness, he could talk about these trivial matters for a whole night.

"I'll go back tomorrow morning." Lu Qingjiu still remembered the two people at home who couldn't cook, "I'll go back and ask if there is any way for Wu Xiao to hear you."

The old tree said: "Are you leaving?" He shook the leaves.

Lu Qingjiu said: "Let's go."

"Are you back?" the old tree asked again.

Lu Qingjiu smiled and said: "Of course I will come back, at least once a year to see you." His parents' graves are still in this city, so he naturally has to come back.

"Okay." A leaf slowly fell on top of Lu Qingjiu's head, and the old tree's voice was gentle, "I'll wait for you to come back."

Lu Qingjiu smiled and said, "Yes."

After chatting with the old tree for so long, Lu Qingjiu was in a good mood, and drove back to Zhu Miaomiao's house in a pickup truck.During the period, Zhu Miaomiao sent him many text messages to inquire about the situation. He was afraid that Lu Qingjiu and Wu Xiao would fight. After all, judging from his size, Lu Qingjiu might not be able to take advantage of the fight.

Lu Qingjiu was afraid that she would be worried, so he called her back, saying that he and Wu Xiao had already made it clear, and there was no intention of fighting at all.

But Zhu Miaomiao was still worried, so she turned on the lights at home and waited for Lu Qingjiu to come back.

After Lu Qingjiu got home, he saw Zhu Miaomiao paralyzed on the sofa, heard his voice coming in, and said in a daze, "Sake, are you back?"

Lu Qingjiu said: "Why don't you go to bed and sleep?"

Zhu Miaomiao said, "I'm afraid you will be beaten."

Lu Qingjiu laughed: "I told you he won't beat me up..."

Zhu Miaomiao said: "Why not? You don't know that he hates you. Brother Yun and I even wondered if he would secretly cover you with a sack if you were walking alone on the road."

Lu Qingjiu couldn't help laughing, he said: "It's okay, the misunderstanding between me and him has been resolved." Presumably Wu Xiao thought that he spread the news about his ass discomfort, so naturally he hated him so much.

Zhu Miaomiao saw that Lu Qingjiu was indeed fine, so she didn't bother with this topic anymore, and she said, "Are you going back tomorrow?"

"Yeah." Lu Qingjiu said, "I'll go back tomorrow."

"Aren't you going to play for two more days?" Zhu Miaomiao said, "Mr. Zhang only found out about your return today, and he said he wanted to treat you to dinner."

Lu Qingjiu said: "No, there is something at home, and I can't leave you for too long."

"Okay." Zhu Miaomiao said, "I have to go to work tomorrow, so I won't see you off."

Lu Qingjiu nodded.

After sweeping the tomb and seeing old people, it's time to go home.Lu Qingjiu hasn't contacted Yin Xun for the past two days, and he doesn't know what's going on at home.Early the next morning, he drove a pickup truck and set off on the road with a trunk full of special products.

It was still a journey of more than ten hours. Lu Qingjiu, who set off at six o'clock in the morning, arrived home at almost ten o'clock in the evening. The two lying down were startled.

Bai Yuehu was still lying on his rocking chair, and Yin Xun found Zhang Mazi to lie next to Bai Yuehu. Lu Qingjiu couldn't see clearly through the night, and almost thought it was a corpse. The corpse heard the door open The voice jumped up, and rushed all the way to Lu Qingjiu, yelling: "Singjiu, you are back! If you don't come back, I will die here!!"

Lu Qingjiu said: "What's wrong?"

Yin Xun cried, "Bai Yuehu is simply not human. On the night you left, he quietly ate everything."

Lu Qingjiu: "...don't there be instant noodles?"

Yin Xun said: "We ate together including instant noodles!!!"

Lu Qingjiu: "..."

Bai Yuehu listened to Yin Xun's complaint, and said coldly from the side: "Didn't I leave you here?"

Yin Xun pretended to cry sadly.

Lu Qingjiu was given a headache by the two of them, and said: "That's enough, I brought you a lot of food, you take the pads to fill your stomachs, and I'll go to the kitchen and serve you two bowls of noodles."

Yin Xun cheered happily.

Lu Qingjiu put the things away, and entered the kitchen wearing an apron. After entering the kitchen, he was shocked by the tragic scene in the kitchen.I saw that everything he made in the kitchen was eaten up, even a bottle of hot sauce.The refrigerator was empty, not even a hair.

The little fox that had been sleeping was also woken up, chirped and moved to Lu Qingjiu's feet and rubbed its limp head against Lu Qingjiu's ankle, Lu Qingjiu bent down and touched the top of its head: "Hey, I'll cook it for you in a while. Eat some minced meat."

Lu Qingjiu simply ordered two bowls of egg noodles, then handed them to Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu, and they finished eating without even soup left.

After Yin Xun finished eating, he dragged his mat back home contentedly, and Bai Yuehu also got up from the chair.According to Yin Xun, after he finished eating Lu Qingjiu, he stuck to the rocking chair and couldn't tear it off—Of course, Yin Xun didn't dare to tear it off.

"Are you full?" Lu Qingjiu wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"En." Bai Yuehu responded, "It's late, go to sleep."

Lu Qingjiu said: "Okay."

Bai Yuehu said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Lu Qingjiu smiled and said, "It's hard work."

The eyes of the two came together, and they both understood each other's expressions. Lu Qingjiu bent his eyes and said, "Good night."

Bai Yuehu said softly: "Good night."

After a good night's sleep, it was the next day.The chirping little fox replaced the function of the alarm clock and woke Lu Qingjiu up from the bed.Knowing that they hadn't eaten for several days, Lu Qingjiu got up early and cooked some sauerkraut noodles, intending to make up for the two of them.

The noodles are kneaded by myself, cut into pieces, and placed in the soup with sauerkraut as the base material. There is also fresh meat made by myself in the sauerkraut soup. The meat is covered with a layer of sweet potato powder, so that the boiled meat is smooth. Tender, very appetizing with appetizing and refreshing sauerkraut.Because the noodles are kneaded by myself, they are also very chewy, especially in such a hot summer, eating a bowl is nothing more comfortable.

After making the noodles, Lu Qingjiu made minced meat for the little fox. The three of them sat at home with the fox and began to eat breakfast. Bai Yuehu finished eating first, and went to the field after eating. The hotter the weather, The harder it is to get the crops, the one who doesn't pay attention to the crops will be sunburned to death.

Lu Qingjiu called Chao Qianyu to come over and take away the extra grapes. The grapes were all ripe, and they would fall to the ground after a while. The three of them couldn't finish them. waste.

Knowing that they had been hungry for a few days, Lu Qingjiu made a big meal full of meat for lunch, such as stir-fried pork, braised beef, cold chicken, boiled sliced ​​meat, whatever it was.

Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu ate very satisfied, and Yin Xun said that the blood lost due to hunger in the past few days was finally made up.

Bai Yuehu didn't speak, but he was satisfied from his expression.

Taking advantage of the nap, Lu Qingjiu told Bai Yuehu about the old tree, and asked him if there was any way for Wu Xiao to hear the old tree.

After listening to it, Bai Yuehu thought about it and said, "Yes, there is."

"Really?" Lu Qingjiu asked in surprise.

"Yeah." Bai Yuehu said, "Just ask that tree to feed that person some of its essence."

Lu Qingjiu: "...What?" He thought he heard it wrong.

"Short for Tree Spirit." Seeing Lu Qingjiu's blank face, Bai Yuehu explained in detail again patiently, "It's a white liquid hidden in the core of a tree. After eating this liquid, Wu Xiao can hear The Tree Clan has spoken."

Lu Qingjiu: "..." After hearing Bai Yuehu's explanation, Lu Qingjiu felt guilty for his violent thoughts, "But the old tree can't be moved, so what should I do?"

Bai Yuehu said: "You tell Wu Xiao to talk about this in front of the old tree, and then just bite the tree trunk with your mouth."

Although Wu Xiao can't hear the old tree, the old tree can hear Wu Xiao. If the old tree wants Wu Xiao to hear him speak, he will secrete his own essence. Wu Xiao is recognized by the tree clan Humans can communicate with the Tree Clan from now on.

Lu Qingjiu didn't expect this method to be quite simple, but he doesn't know why Lao Shu didn't mention it himself, is it embarrassing?He didn't think much about it, and after getting the answer, he called Wu Xiao and told Wu Xiao the method.

After hearing this, Wu Xiao decided to go to the park to find the old tree after get off work. Hearing his tone, he seemed to be gearing up.

Lu Qingjiu originally thought that this was the end of the matter, but at noon the next day, he received a call from Wu Xiao. Wu Xiao's voice was a little hoarse, and his tone was like weeping blood. He yelled at the other end of the phone: : "Lu Qingjiu, you are going too far!"

Lu Qingjiu asked inexplicably, "Huh?"

Wu Xiao said: "You... I fired you, but I apologized and am willing to compensate you. Are you going to mess with me like this?"

Lu Qingjiu said: "What did I do to you?" He looked blank, and then thought of the method he asked Wu Xiao to try yesterday, "What happened to you? It's not serious, right?"

Probably because his voice was too innocent, Wu Xiao's tone was also tinged with suspicion: "You really don't know? Then where did your idea come from?"

Lu Qingjiu said: "...the sorceress in my village told me about it." After he finished talking about the sorceress, he also took a look at Bai Yuehu who was clinging to the rocking chair and happily alone.

"Witch??" Wu Xiao said, "Didn't the witch say anything else?"

Lu Qingjiu said: "Others? What else? The witch just said that as long as you do this, you can hear the tree clan's words, and didn't mention anything else. What's the matter?" He felt that something serious happened over there It's a big deal, otherwise Wu Xiao wouldn't talk to him in this tone.

After hearing Lu Qingjiu's explanation, Wu Xiao fell into silence.

Lu Qingjiu fed it several times before he heard a faint sigh from the other end, and Wu Xiao forcefully squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "It's okay."

Lu Qingjiu: "..." Mr. Wu, this doesn't look like it's okay.

Wu Xiao hesitated to speak, "I...forget it."

Lu Qingjiu: "...Then, can you hear the tree talking now?"

After he asked this question, he heard the sound of teeth grinding from the other end of the phone, and he said, "Yes, I can hear it."

Lu Qingjiu: "Well..." Since you can hear it, why are you so angry? Could it be that some unexpected accident occurred during the period?Lu Qingjiu really wanted to ask this question, but in the end he wittily held back, because Wu Xiao was in a bad mood right now, and after cursing a few words in a low voice, he hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Qingjiu glanced at his phone screen, thought for a moment and then walked towards Bai Yuehu who was still sleeping.

"Moon Fox." Lu Qingjiu called him.

Bai Yuehu opened his eyes and looked at Lu Qingjiu.

"The method you mentioned that allows people to hear the Tree Clan's speech, there is no after-effect?" Lu Qingjiu blinked, and asked this question that should have been asked yesterday.

Bai Yuehu said slowly, "Sequelae?"

Lu Qingjiu nodded.

"Forget it." Bai Yuehu said lightly, "If the Tree Clan agrees, the two will become partners."

Lu Qingjiu: "..."

Seeing that Lu Qingjiu's jaw was about to drop in surprise, Bai Yuehu raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong?"

Lu Qingjiu finally understood the reason for the pain in Wu Xiao's tone, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "Why didn't you tell me..."

But Bai Yuehu said very calmly: "Because this is not considered a sequelae."

That's right, getting married, how can it be regarded as a sequelae - Lu Qingjiu couldn't help applauding the logic of his vixen, shouldn't he call Wu Xiao again, and congratulate Mr. Wu on mentioning a hundred-year-old bride? ? ?

The author has something to say: Bai Yuehu: How do you know that he likes to mention the centenarian bride and not the groom...

Lu Qingjiu: ... President Wu, I'm sorry for you.

Wu Xiao cried bitterly: I have hemorrhoids ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
