Seeing that he remembered, Zhou Yue became obviously happy: "If it weren't for you, I might have died at that time."

Yan Ting waved her hand: "It's not that serious."

"Afterwards, I often went to see you, and sat behind you during public lectures, but I never had the nerve to talk to you."

Yan Ting didn't even know that he was favored by girls when he was in college. According to his own words, he held a broken book all day long and read it while walking. It's strange that he looks like a nerd and can attract girls' attention. .

"You are my savior, so I want to repay you well."

Looking at her enthusiastic eyes, Yan Ting was a little apprehensive: "How can I repay you with my body?"

Yan Ting originally made a joke following her words, but Zhou Yue suddenly smiled and said, "It's not impossible."

At this moment, he really wanted Xu Mowen to come over and be a light bulb, so that the atmosphere at the scene would not be so embarrassing.

"Actually, I never thought about falling in love..."

"It's too late to think about it now!" Zhou Yue looked serious, "Didn't you never have a girlfriend, don't you want to try?"

Yan Ting really wanted to know what happened to Zhou Yue, and how did she change from a girl who was afraid to talk to her to what she is now?

"How about it, have you considered it?"

……

After Zhou Yue left, Xu Mowen didn't come in for a long time. Yan Ting didn't know if he left or not, so she lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

There was no one in the living room and kitchen, so Yan Ting walked into the yard.The lights were not turned on in the yard, so he looked carefully for a while before he saw Xu Mowen sitting under the locust tree not far away.

The spring night in the north was still very cold, Xu Mowen only wore a thin coat, he leaned against the locust tree with his back to Yan Ting.

For some reason, Yan Ting felt that this figure was a bit lonely.

He turned around and went back to get a coat and a blanket. When he came back, Xu Mowen was still in that position, wondering if he had fallen asleep.

Yan Ting walked over gently, but Xu Mowen still heard footsteps and turned around.

"Here." Yan Ting handed him the coat.

Xu Mowen sat up straight, took the coat from Yan Ting: "It's so cold, why are you out?"

Yan Ting smiled: "So you also know the cold?"

Xu Mo also smiled when he heard this.

Yan Ting originally wanted to ask him why he didn't come home so late, but asking him was a bit like driving someone away.

Maybe he, like himself, has lived alone for a long time, and maybe he doesn't think it makes any difference where he stays.

He sat down beside Xu Mowen, covered himself with the blanket, and asked Xu Mowen to put on his coat as well.His own clothes were obviously too small for him, but they could keep out the cold anyway.

Under the moonlight, half of Xu Mowen's face was buried in the shadows, making his facial features more three-dimensional, and adding a bit of coolness to his whole person.

Seeing that he had nothing to say, Yan Ting asked what she wanted to ask.

"What did my grandfather help you back then, can you tell me?"

Xu Mowen looked at him, and now his entire face was in shadow, Yan Ting couldn't see his expression, but could still feel his eyes staring at hers.

He opened his mouth slowly: "He helped me save a person."

"Is that person important to you?"

"It's more important than life."

When he said this, he was still looking at Yan Ting, but then he turned his head slowly. In the moonlight, he could see his nose bridge was straight, and his long eyelashes cast shadows on his face.

I don't know if it is suitable, but Yan Ting still hesitated and asked: "Is this person still there?"

"exist."

Yan Ting breathed a sigh of relief, and began to wonder who this person was. Firstly, he ruled out his parents, and secondly, he said he didn't plan to have a girlfriend, so this was also ruled out. Could it be his brothers and sisters?

Just as he was thinking, Xu Mowen also asked him a question: "That Zhou Yue seems to be very enthusiastic about you."

"Oh, her, I helped her once in college."

"then you……"

Yan Ting knew that he wanted to ask if she had any plans to date her, so she quickly shook her head: "I still can't, it's better for me to live with this shop."

Xu Mowen shook his head with a smile, and said, "But you're going to get married anyway?"

"Who said that?" Yan Ting said, "If I marry someone else, I will cause trouble for them, so let's live on my own."

"Why do you say that?"

"I don't even have a serious job. After marriage, I will definitely be disgusted by all kinds of people, and I am a person who is afraid of taking responsibility. After marriage, I may not be able to do things like marrying a wife and raising children..."

Xu Mowen looked at him with a smile as he described these reasons for "fear of marriage", propped his chin with one hand, and pondered over his words carefully.

After a long time, he said, "It's not necessarily true. I think it's because you have too much sense of responsibility and dare not take it lightly."

Yan Ting has never thought about this issue from this angle, and now Xu Mowen's explanation seems to make sense.

After sitting for a while, Xu Mowen stood up: "It's time for you to rest, I'm going back."

"Can I still get a taxi at this late hour? Why don't you make do with it for the night here first."

"It's also okay."

Yan Ting was stunned, didn't he hesitate?

"Just kidding," Xu Mowen said with a smile, "I came here by car."

Yan Ting scratched his head with a smile, he really didn't feel that Xu Mowen was joking just now, after all, his face didn't look like he could joke.

But even if Xu Mowen really stayed, he wouldn't feel disgusted.

Just when Xu Mowen was about to go out, Yan Ting's cell phone rang. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was Wang Yuan's call.

Wang Yuan hadn't contacted him since he sold the puppet to his master last time, and he probably didn't dare to go out to pick up jobs recently, so why did he call in the middle of the night?

He pressed the answer button, and Wang Yuan's voice came over immediately: "Brother Yan, ghost puppet, ghost puppet has escaped!"

"What's going on? You speak slowly."

Wang Yuan calmed down a bit, and explained the whole story.

It turned out that after the puppet was handed over to Wang Puhe, he bound it with a spirit rope. He thought that the puppet would be guided by the jade knot to act.

But after two days of observation, he found that the ghost puppet was like a dead thing. He thought it was bound by the spirit rope and affected its performance, so he tried to untie it.

I didn't expect this attempt, so I just let him run away.

"Master and several people searched together for a long time but couldn't find it. Is there anything you can do?"

Yan Ting thought for a while and said, "I'll try, but I have to agree first..."

He avoided Xu Mowen, took a few steps aside, and whispered: "Even if you can't find it, you can't take back the money you gave me, you lost it yourself!"

Wang Yuan finally recognized his miser's nature, and threatened: "No, my master said, if you can't find it, you will get [-]% of the money back."

Yan Ting did some calculations, then quickly shook her head: "No, I'll look for it right away, I'll definitely find it!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Mowen cast a questioning look, Yan Ting explained indiscriminately that a client had encountered some trouble, and was quickly searching for a way to find the puppet in his heart.

According to Wang Puhe, the ghost puppet is a derivative of the jade knot, so it is not the same as the ordinary ghost, but judging from the experience of taming it last time, you might as well use the method of finding the ghost to try again. Find its whereabouts.

He hurried to the shop, rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find tools, and finally found a piece of brown jade in a drawer. From a certain angle, this piece of jade looked a bit like a human eye.Because very few innocent souls escaped from his hands, this "jade eye" was rarely used, so it was thrown casually in the bottom drawer.

Yan Ting wiped the dust on it, and the jade eyes became radiant, and the curved lines were embedded on the surface of the stone, which looked more like a shining eye.

Xu Mowen followed from behind, and Yan Ting didn't have time to greet him. He was really worried that the money that hadn't warmed up in his hands would be taken back again, and now he was only thinking about finding the whereabouts of the puppet.

He kept rubbing the jade eye with the palm of his hand, wondering if it was an illusion, the jade eye seemed to be brighter than before, and even the lines seemed to be shining.

"What is this?" Xu Mowen asked behind him.

"Luminous Stone." Yan Ting answered casually.

He had exhausted too much energy yesterday when helping those returning souls reincarnate, and he was still a little weak at the moment, so he wasn't sure if he could succeed.

He put Yumu in front of his left eye and closed his right eye at the same time.He imagined the appearance of a puppet in his heart, and concentrated on looking out through the jade eyes, but he could only vaguely see the landscape five miles away. He wanted to exert strength, but suddenly his eyes became dizzy, so he had to give up.

Just as he was about to give up, a black figure appeared from the chaos, and it was getting closer and closer to him. He recognized it as a puppet at a glance.

He quickly identified the surrounding scenery of the ghost puppet, so as to judge where it is now.

Old streets, telephone poles with several wires, fruit stands, and a familiar signboard that says "Qingming promotion, fortune-telling, exorcising ghosts and spending 99 minus [-]"...

I go!

He just saw his own billboard? !

Before he could react, a black shadow rushed towards him like a headless chicken. Yan Ting managed to dodge, but he suddenly realized that Xu Mowen was still behind.

"Get out of the way!" Yan Ting turned around, only to find that Xu Mowen had disappeared.

Xu Mowen, who was squatting on the ground, raised his head: "What's wrong? I'm tying my shoes."

Yan Ting breathed out, thinking that you are really lucky, the shoelaces have helped you a lot!

Seeing that the puppet appeared in front of him again, he rushed forward to protect Xu Mowen.Xu Mowen stood up at this moment, and looked down at the man who was half a head shorter than him as he opened his arms to block him.

"What are you doing?"

"Oh, exercise your muscles and bones!" Yan Ting stared at the puppet in front of him, ready to try his best to stop it when it charged again, but at this moment, Xu Mowen slowly pushed his arm away.

"You're not in good health yet, don't rush to exercise," Xu Mowen patted him on the shoulder, "Go back and rest first."

Xu Mowen stood in front of him, and was about to cover the puppet who was about to move, and his heart twitched, but almost at this moment, he suddenly heard a "puff".

Like a balloon leaking, the puppet collapsed to the ground.

what's the situation?Yan Ting stepped forward to check the twitching puppet on the ground, he obviously hadn't done anything yet, how did the puppet who was still alive just now get hurt like this?

He didn't even feel any signs of luck around him at all, and the puppet didn't have any external injuries. It can do this to this extent... Could it be that there are some peerless masters nearby?

Just when he was about to go out to have a look, Xu Mowen grabbed him and looked at him with firm but gentle eyes.

"It's time to go back to sleep."
