"'I don't want to die' death is already dead and they are so noisy all day long! Noisy! Noisy! In fact, they have forgotten why they live, and even who they are. Death is the end, why not simply What? - "My Diary"

The next morning, 08:30.

A group of people tossed and tossed until more than three o'clock in the middle of the night yesterday. It stands to reason that Zhao Xiwen should sleep through the afternoon without stress.But in fact, he woke up just after seven o'clock, and then tossed and turned in bed for more than an hour.It's not that he's not tired, it's not that he's not sleepy, but he just can't fall asleep.Lying there with eyes closed, he ended up with a splitting headache, so Zhao Xiwen simply got up and prepared to drink a cup of strong tea.

But he didn't expect that because his head was dizzy, when he went downstairs, he stepped on an empty space. At that time, he was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.And seeing that he was about to face down and fall into free fall, Zhao Ziwen only had time to hold his head with his hands and try his best to protect the fragile parts of his body.He already felt that his whole body was completely empty, but suddenly, someone pulled him from behind!

The force that pulled him was great, and by the time Zhao Wenwen realized it, he had already sat on the steps with a plop.Although the tailbone was sore at the time, and I couldn't move after sitting there for a long time, my life was saved.When he regained his strength, Zhao Ziwen turned his head to see who could help, but all he saw was the empty corridor on the second floor, with no moving shadows...

Immediately, Zhao Ziwen was covered in cold sweat, but he calmed down in just a moment.Chen Xiuyuan exorcised ghosts for his family, and he is still sleeping in the guest room.And what he experienced in the past few days made Zhao Ziwen have a strong confidence in him - it is absolutely impossible for any monster to dare to come to a place where Chen Xiuyuan is.What's more, even if there was a daring ghost, the other party was absolutely innocent. After all, that ghost saved his life.

But thinking about it this way, Zhao Ziwen couldn't help guessing, could the one who pulled him not be a ghost at all?He subconsciously touched the jade gourd on his chest. This piece of jade was cold when he put it on, but now it already has the same body temperature as him...

Yesterday, the six of them returned to the villa. The glasses were the simplest, and they were thrown directly on the sofa in the living room - they are still crawling there.And others, although they all wanted to take a bath and go to bed early, but the fact is that they don't allow it.When they were in the haunted house, they were all hit by high mental tension, the adrenaline was rising, and they all subconsciously ignored the pain.

But in the villa, it was safe and calm, and everyone with minor injuries and pains came to demonstrate and join in the fun—three of the five people were injured.The hero didn't know when he got a big cut on his back; the little fat man had bruises on his back and thighs; Tong Wei's knees and calf were severely scratched.

As for the two who were not injured, no one was surprised that Chen Xiuyuan was intact.But Zhao Xiwen was unscathed, which is not normal.Not to mention other things, when he was in the unit, he bravely rushed towards the evil spirit, but was blown away, smashed through a door, and fell on the concrete floor.

Although the door was only a very thin wooden door, and Chen Xiuyuan admitted that he was the one who messed up and locked the door before, but he didn't tamper with the door at that time.But that power is absolutely uncomfortable.And after this series of thrilling actions, not only did Zhao Xiwen's bones remain intact, he didn't even have a single bruise. Yesterday, the other three unanimously despised Zhao Xiwen's shit luck.

And because Zhao Ziwen, who was sleepy and tired at that time, couldn't control his mind, so he thought so at that time.However, combined with the incident just now, it is definitely not because of his own shit luck, but because of some kind of external force, for example, the amulet...

At that time, he only put on this jade gourd with the mentality of being more protective and safe, and that it was not necessary.But now it seems that this thing is really not "a little" useful!However, at the same time that Zhao Wenwen felt safe, he felt a little creepy—what the hell just pulled his clothes?And what principle does the amulet produced by Chen Xiuyuan use to protect people's safety?

Zhao Wenwen's hand was caressing this small jade gourd from Chen Xiuyuan, which was not exquisite.Thinking about it, his train of thought unconsciously changed from "how does the amulet protect my safety" to "why did I rush over without hesitation last night"?

This incident was also the focus of Zhao Xiwen's ridicule yesterday, and the hero also specially reminded him, "Hurry up about what to do, while this 'man of god' is not well-known now.".At this point, I have to say that this brother Zhao Ziwen is still very loyal. It can be seen that the hero also wants to get to know Chen Xiuyuan better—after all, this kind of special person, they are all Those who want to get close, who knows if they or their family members will encounter difficulties in the future?But last night Daxia didn't take the initiative to talk to Chen Xiuyuan, but gave him all the opportunities.

After all, it can be regarded as after adversity, and it should be the time to see the truth.And Zhao Ziwen himself is actually tempted, but thinking about the tragic experience that he lost his mind after being touched by Chen Xiuyuan last time, and had to go upstairs to change his pants... Zhao Wenwen is very suspicious, even if he and Chen Xiuyuan Everything in Xiuyuan's "road ahead" went well, but he had little chance of winning in bed... In the end, after spending a long time outside Chen Xiuyuan's door, Zhao Xiwen ran away in despair...

"Boss, what are you doing sitting here?" Zhao Ziwen was thinking about Chen Xiuyuan, but Chen Xiuyuan stood beside him and talked, which made Zhao Ziwen startled.

"It's okay...just stumbled just now. Why did you get up so early and don't sleep for a while?"

"No, I need very little sleep and am hungry."

"Oh, why do you call yourself like an old man?" Zhao Ziwen laughed, "However, I'm hungry when you say that, let's go down together, I'll make you something to eat." Zhao Wenwen stood up , signaling Chen Xiuyuan to go downstairs together.

"Boss can cook?"

"Instant noodles, eggs, ham. Or bread, milk, and ham?"

"Instant noodles."

"Well, I also like instant noodles, so let's cook three packs. How many eggs do you want?"

"One is fine."

The two walked and talked all the way, all the way to the kitchen on the first floor, Zhao Xiwen first found the instant noodles, and then poked his head into the refrigerator to search for a while: "There are only two eggs, and it happens that we each have one, so we don't leave them. .” When he stood up holding two eggs, his face was full of smug smiles.

When the instant noodles were put into the pot, the water boiled, and Zhao Xiwen immediately cracked the egg, but after knocking it twice, he realized that it didn't feel right. The egg was not raw, but cooked...

"Oh?! Why is it a salted duck egg? It's too small." Knock another one, this is an egg, that's right, the egg was beaten in the pot, Zhao Xiwen stirred it a few times with chopsticks, and the whole egg turned It became egg flower.The noodles were completely cooked, so Zhao Ziwen put out the fire, brought the pot down, and gave Chen Xiuyuan two more bowls, "Go divide the noodles."

Chen Xiuyuan was obedient, and at the dining table beside him, he scooped up two bowls of noodles for two people.As soon as the distribution was finished, Zhao Xiwen came over with two small plates. On the plates were sliced ​​ham, pickled mustard, and half a salted duck egg.However, the half of the egg on Chen Xiuyuan's plate had significantly more golden yolks, or in other words, the half of Zhao Xiwen's had only a little bit at all.

Chen Xiuyuan noticed that when Zhao Ziwen handed him the small plate, he looked at the egg yolk with reluctance and nostalgia in his eyes...

BOSS used to be so homely and interesting.Chen Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows, thinking about whether to share the egg yolk with Zhao Xiwen, but the two big men wouldn't give way for such a small matter the size of a fingernail, right?He might as well eat the egg yolk early so that Zhao Ziwen can't see it. After all, short-term pain is worse than long-term pain.

Therefore, Chen Xiuyuan swallowed the egg yolk with his first bite of breakfast.

"Is it tasty?"

"Well, thank you BOSS, your cooking skills are good. Eggs and noodles are delicious."

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, next time you want to eat, I can do it." Zhao Wenwen laughed dryly, and then in the small dining room next to the kitchen, only the sound of the two of them eating noodles was left.The background music doesn't sound very elegant, but it's full of a sense of home... Zhao Wenwen stuffed half a bowl of noodles, and felt that he was no longer so hungry that his chest was stuck to his back, and he began to ask the question he thought of just now, "Xiao Chen, how exactly does your amulet work?"

"My talisman works only when there are 'good friends' in it." Chen Xiuyuan ate faster than Zhao Xiwen, and there was only soup left in the bowl, and he did not respond to Zhao Xiwen's question. Will answer very simply.

"Good friend..." Zhao Ziwen sighed secretly, and at the same time felt a chill in his chest. He also knew that this was entirely due to his own psychological effects. However, as an ordinary person who lived in a normal world a few days ago, at least In a short time, he couldn't overcome this reaction, "Can you be more specific?"

"To be more specific..." Chen Xiuyuan drank all the soup, "People are different. Some things, mainly stone, wood, and metal, are also different from each other. But this difference is not Refers to the type of them, but to the way they make me feel. Some make me feel cold, some make me feel hot, and some I can smell a specific smell from them. But these are only a few of them, and Most of them are things that I don’t feel at all.”

"Only the temperature you can feel, and the smell you can smell?"

"Yes."

"So what's the use of these special features?"

"There are many uses. Some can kill ghosts, some can make ghosts stronger, and some can make ghosts live." Chen Xiuyuan pointed to the one on Zhao Ziwen's neck, "The amulet is to make ghosts live Yes, my first amulet came by accident. When I was a child, a neighbor was moving, and I had a good relationship with the boy, so I gave him my favorite thing-- One of my most obedient "good friends". But because he had no place to put it, I stuffed that "good friend" into a stone that can trap ghosts. And ordered it to protect that boy—his name I I forgot about it now. Later, the car that their family was moving had an accident just two streets away, and his parents and sister who were in the car with him died, but he was safe and sound."

"The uncle..."

"The amulet is not on him. I don't know if he forgot to wear it or gave it to someone else." Chen Xiuyuan smiled wryly.

"You just ordered it when you gave it to me, won't they be disobedient?" Afraid to return to fear, but Zhao Ziwen must admit that Chen Xiuyuan's amulet is indeed better than those blessings, blessings The amulet obtained is much more reliable.The premise is that if the things here are always obedient, this is the only problem that Zhao Xiwen is worried about. After all, the old lady at No. 120 is disobedient.

"Don't worry." Chen Xiuyuan smiled, "They are domesticated, completely different from the wild ones like Mrs. Zhang."

Zhao Ziwen just wanted Chen Xiuyuan to explain, why do ghosts still have domestic and wild things?They are different, what is the difference?His cell phone rang.Zhao Wenwen left the kitchen for a while, and came back 2 minutes later, with an obviously nervous expression on his face: "Xiao Chen, the people you want have arrived early, and they will be at my house at ten o'clock tonight."

Chen Xiuyuan, who cleaned up his own dishes and was washing the dishes, paused for a moment: "Boss, will I cause you trouble at your house?"

"In Tiandu, no one can trouble me." Zhao Wenwen smiled lightly, letting go of his arrogance, but it didn't take long for him to shrivel up when he remembered something, "Xiao Chen, as long as you don't Just dismember them at my house."

Chen Xiuyuan smiled and shook his head: "Boss, there will be no deaths, dead people... no matter how much pain he endured before death, as long as he dies, they will forget it in a short time. It's easy..."
