Christmas

Luo Shijia was very frustrated, and he didn't understand why the bracelet that he had put on the bedside table before taking a bath suddenly disappeared.

Looking at his weeping face, Shi Xie and Xia Yao looked at each other at the same time and then turned their eyes back to Luo Shijia.

The figure of the young man is a little thin, and he is not as tall as Shi Xie and Xia Yao. He looks a little weak, but his complexion looks healthy, not exaggeratedly yellow and thin.

Luo Shijia's clothes are very clean, but it can still be seen that they are a little old, and they are a little whitish after washing. They are not like ordinary young people who just want to wear new and various famous brands, and they look more stable.

From this, it can be seen that Luo Shijia's family situation is not very good. After all, he has no parents since he was a child, grew up in an orphanage, and then worked hard to support himself alone.

No relatives, no friends, one can imagine how difficult life was when I came out of the orphanage.

Luo Shijia can rely on his own efforts to have the current life, which is already very admirable.

Therefore, losing that string of bracelets not only made Luo Shijia unable to get rid of the fear of nightmares, but also lost half a month or even a month of living expenses.

"How did you lose the bracelet?"

Shi Xie poured himself a glass of water, looked at Luo Shijia and asked calmly.

Luo Shijia pursed his lips, his face darkened.

"I went to take a shower, and then I took off the bracelet and put it on the bedside table. Then, after I came out of the bathroom, the bracelet disappeared. I remember clearly that I put the bracelet on the bedside table, and I didn't Do you know why it suddenly disappeared?

While talking, Luo Shijia couldn't help pulling her hair in distress, frowning and thinking hard.

"If the bracelet suddenly disappears on your bedside table, it must have been taken away by something."

Shi Xie took a sip of water, pondered for a while before speaking.

Luo Shijia hurriedly looked at him and asked anxiously.

"What took it away? Can it be retrieved?"

Shi Xie shook his head and put down the water glass in his hand.

"I'm not sure what took it away. Since the bracelet has been lost, it's lost. Come with me."

Saying that, Shi Xie stood up and walked towards the study, Luo Shijia also stood up quickly and followed Shi Xie to the study with Xia Yao.It was the same position as yesterday, and the three of them sat down.

Shi Xie took out several sheets of yellow paper about fifteen centimeters long and seven centimeters wide from the desk drawer, as well as a small box of cinnabar.

Looking at Shi Xie's movements, Xia Yao knew that he was going to draw a talisman, but Luo Shijia still looked at Shi Xie in confusion, not understanding what he was going to do.

Shi Xie took out a slightly thinner brush, dipped a little cinnabar, closed his eyes and took a slow breath.When he opened it again, the originally pitch-black eyes had turned bright red, radiant and charming.

Shi Xie held the pen in his right hand, and lined up the pieces of yellow paper. He tapped the tip of the pen on the yellow paper, and suddenly exerted force.

The red eyes watched the movements of his hands intently, and saw that one complicated and obscure mantra was slowly drawn on the yellow paper.It wasn't until the sixth piece was written that Shi Xie abruptly retracted his pen and let out a long sigh of relief.

The red eyes flickered slightly, and slowly returned to their original darkness.

Shi Xie took a few sips from the water cup that Xia Yao handed over to relieve the dryness in his throat.

Although writing talisman paper does not consume too much psionic energy, it is more energy-intensive than attacking with psionic energy.

Because when writing the talisman paper, one must concentrate on it, and also pay attention to the specific output of psionic energy, neither more nor less, once there is a slight difference, the talisman paper will be considered useless.

So this is also the reason why Shi Xie didn't learn talisman at that time, he still prefers direct attacks.

But historians have always paid attention to all-round development, so although Shi Xie's talisman skills are not as proficient as Baili Qianyan, they are not bad.

Coupled with the blessing of his blood, sometimes the talisman papers he wrote are even more effective than those written by Baili Qianyan.

This is not less envious.

After the six talisman papers were completely dry, Shi Xie handed all the talisman papers to Luo Shijia.

"You take these talisman papers and stick them around your bed when you sleep. Be careful not to get these talisman papers wet."

Luo Shijia hastily and carefully took those pieces of talisman paper.

And Shi Xie got up again and took out an exquisite small wooden box from under the bookshelf behind him. When he opened it, he saw a small bronze beast the size of a palm, with a naive appearance and a small ball under its paw.

Shi Xie took out the little beast and handed it to Luo Shijia.

"This Rhine beast is placed in your room, and three long incense sticks are offered every day to keep you safe."

Luo Shijia took the little bronze beast carefully, and held it in his hands as if holding some kind of treasure.

"Then...then, how much should I give you?"

Luo Shijia showed some embarrassment on his face, but he still looked at Shi Xie and asked aloud, although he did not have money, but he could not impoverish his ambition, this is Luo Shijia's only principle of life.

"Do you have any coins with you?"

Luo Shijia, who was waiting for Shi Xie to talk about the price, was taken aback when he heard Shi Xie's request, and then quickly reacted.He carefully placed the small bronze beast in his hand on the desk, fumbled in his pocket a few times, took out five coins, and handed them all to Shi Xie.

Shi Xie took it and looked at it. Two of them were one yuan, one was fifty cents, and two were ten cents, making a total of two yuan and seventy cents.

"These are my rewards for helping you this time."

Shi Xie said and put those coins into the drawer.

It's just a few words he said lightly, but Luo Shijia was stunned for a long time. He looked at Xia Yao, who was smiling gently at him, and then at Shi Xie, who was looking down and looking calm, Luo Shijia. Sega's eyes suddenly turned red, and he quickly lowered his head.

"Thank you... thank you."

Luo Shijia understands that they are not pitying themselves, but helping themselves. If they want to maintain that ridiculous dignity now, it will be really ridiculous.

"I'll help you. You have already paid the reward last time, and the karma between us has been broken. You don't have to think too much."

Shi Xie's words still sounded bland, even a bit cold, but Luo Shijia felt warm in his heart.

Rubbing his face, Luo Shijia raised his head and showed a silly smile at Shi Xie and Xia Yao.

Looking at his reddened eyes, Xia Yao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"If something happens, remember to come to me with the Rhine Beast."

Shi Xie gave a final instruction, then stood up from the chair, thought for a while before adding another sentence.

"You must remember that no matter what happens, you must bring the Rhine Beast with you."

Hearing Shi Xie's serious words, Luo Shijia nodded quickly, put the pieces of talisman paper into his pocket, and stood up carefully holding the Rhine beast.

Xia Yao also walked up to Luo Shijia at this time, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Go back and rest at ease. You look very bad. If you need anything, just call us, and we will rush over to help you."

Luo Shijia nodded movedly, and left the study room with Xia Yao and the others.

Seeing them coming out, Xiao Shen immediately rushed towards Xia Yao and hugged his legs tightly.

"Mom, Mom, are we going to Toyland now?"

Xiao Shen is used to being called Xia Yao like this at ordinary times, but now that Luo Shijia is still by his side, Xia Yao immediately feels a little embarrassed

And Xiao Shen obviously realized where he was wrong, stuck out his tongue mischievously, hugged Xia Yao's leg and didn't speak.But Luo Shijia's attention was obviously no longer on the address, thinking that he had delayed their family's trip to the toy city, Luo Shijia felt guilty for a while.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you had something else to do, so I'll go back now."

"You didn't waste our time. The Toy City doesn't open until nine o'clock. It's just that Xiao Shen couldn't wait."

After hearing Xia Yao's words, Luo Shijia looked at the time, it was indeed not nine o'clock, but it was almost there.

"Thank you, but I'm going back anyway, you have fun."

Luo Shijia touched his head and smiled, but there are still two dark circles under his eyes, such a smile is like a national treasure, very naive

thick.

Xia Yao couldn't help smiling, and took Xiao Shen to send Luo Shijia to the door.

"Brother, are you going home now? Xiao Shen is going to the Toy City, do you want to go together?"

Xia Yao's hand, Xiao Shen raised his head and blinked at Luo Shijia and asked.

"I won't go, because I'm very tired now, so I have to go home and rest, Xiao Shen, you have fun."

"Okay, goodbye, big brother."

"Goodbye brother."

Luo Shijia touched the little heads of Xiaocan and He Bishen one by one, said goodbye to Shi Xie Xiayao, and walked out the door.

It wasn't until Luo Shijia's figure disappeared in the elevator that Xia Yao closed the door, reached out and grabbed Shi Xie's fingers to play with.

"You gave him that little beast because you knew something would happen to him?"

Shi Xie raised his eyebrows when he heard Xia Yao's words. He didn't expect Xia Yao to guess this, but he didn't intend to hide it, so he simply nodded.

"He'll be fine, right?"

Xia Yao asked worriedly, his impression of Luo Shijia was really good.

"It's okay, he can always hold out until he comes to find us."

Shi Xie shook Xia Yao's hand reassuringly, knowing that Xia Yao was always kind-hearted, Shi Xie didn't say anything more, and took him directly back to the

out of the living room.

What Shi Xie said was very credible, and Xia Yao felt more at ease. He returned to the living room and started to go to the east of the toy city.

WEAT.

When Luo Shijia returned home, he didn't even bother to take off his clothes, and went straight to the bedroom to tidy up the bits and pieces on the bedside table, took out a clean rag from the bathroom, and wiped the bedside table from head to toe.

In the end, I found a piece of fabric from the closet that was just left as a curtain and spread it on it.

Turning around, he placed on the base of the Buddha statue that he bought at the incense and candle shop when he came back, and then carefully took out the Rhine beast and placed it on it.

Then he took out the incense burner, put some millet in it, lit three sticks of incense and stuck it in, and bowed respectfully.

After finishing all this, Luo Shijia took out the talisman paper that Shi Xie gave him, and stuck it tightly around the bed. After finishing all the work, Luo Shijia let out a long breath.

He was sweating a lot just now, and Luo Shijia didn't sleep last night, and he was really tired now, so he took off his clothes, took a shower, and changed into comfortable pajamas.

Luo Shijia lay on his warm quilt, rubbed the quilt comfortably, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.
