Three Realms Sanatorium

The snow fell and soon condensed into a thin layer of ice on the ground.

Gu Shi took Xie Jiusi back to the yard, got into the kitchen and got busy.

Wash vegetables, boil water, clean pots and pans.

Two hours later, Gu Shi hung the ones that were to be dried on the eaves, and the ones that should be marinated were kneaded and left to stand. By the time he finished processing these, snow had already accumulated on the ground.

Gu Shi glanced at the time, it was 04:30 in the afternoon, no matter how obsessed with the historical value of Cangwu Temple, there is still food to eat.

Gu Shi soaked seaweed, took a few ribs out of the refrigerator, chopped them into small pieces, put them in a pot, poured cold water into the pot, and covered it.

Xie Jiusi held the mug with his name on it, and looked up at Gu Shi: "You want to go out?"

"Yeah." Gu Shi nodded, "Please help me look at the fire, the fire should be lower, I'll clear the snow and put down the non-slip mat so they don't fall."

Xie Jiusi pursed her lips: "With me here, they won't fall."

"But letting people step on the snow, the senses are not good."

As Gu Shi said, he pushed open the door, looked at the snow that had piled up on the steps, and let out a "huh".

"It's snowing so much."

Before he finished speaking, he closed the door of the kitchen, put on the plastic shoes hanging on the side, and ran to the utility room with one deep foot and one shallow foot.

Xie Jiusi stayed in the kitchen, his eyes calmly watching the firewood burning in the stove door, but all his attention was on Gu Shi who dragged the rubber mat and shovel outside.

Xie Jiusi was a little puzzled.

He could understand the non-slip mat, it was prepared for those humans, but what did Gu Shi do with a shovel?

Gu Shi has his imprint on him, and he can do whatever he wants within the scope of Zhongshan, even without his special help.

For example, melting ice and snow is actually easy for Gu Shi.

As for the matter of ensuring that he will not slip in the snow, it can be easily achieved without even deliberately using the mark.

With doubts, Xie Jiusi saw that Gu Shi had just stepped out of the yard and started to shovel the snow.

Xie Jiusi: "..."

Xie Jiusi fell silent.

At this moment, he finally realized that Gu Shi didn't seem to understand what the mark he left on him meant.

Gu Shi has always regarded himself as a human being in the next life.

Xie Jiusi's thin lips moved, and he was about to tell Gu Shi that he didn't need to shovel snow to melt the snow, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back inexplicably.

He tapped the wall of the cup lightly with his fingertips holding the cup, making a rare turn in his mind.

Xie Jiusi hooked his fingertips.

Gu Shi went down with the shovel and directly shoveled it on the exposed slate floor, leaving a thin white mark on the slate.

Gu Shi felt the feedback force of the handle, stared at the snow that suddenly melted in front of his eyes for two seconds, turned his head to look at the closed kitchen door, and frowned.

He dragged the shovel and walked two steps forward, watching the snow that should have covered the upper of his shoes melt quickly as if suddenly exposed to the sun.

Gu Shi turned his head and glanced at the kitchen door again, the corner of his mouth curled up, he simply stood the shovel on the edge of the door, dragged the non-slip mat on the side, took off, and moved forward.

Xie Jiusi melted the snow in the direction Gu Shi was heading in, held a cup and looked at the fire, and yawned lazily.

The warehouse is only about [-] meters away from the yard where Gu Shi and Gu Xiuming live - this includes two uphill and downhill steps and a short flight of stairs. The anti-slip mats at home are quite sufficient.

Every winter, Gu Shi shovels snow and paves the roads they often walk.

Cangwu Temple is built according to the mountain, and there are many steps and small slopes. It is cold in winter, and it is easy to slip when the ground is frozen.

Gu Shi himself was not unlucky enough to slip, but Gu Xiuming was different. In addition, when the old man got old, Gu Shi spent a sum of money to buy these cushions regardless of Gu Xiuming's objection.

Gu Shi quickly arrived at the door of the warehouse, and looked down at the plastic shoes that were not stained with snow.

He turned his head, looked in the direction he came from, and said in a drawn out voice, "Thanks—old—ban—"

"?" Xie Jiusi took a sip of warm water and replied, "I'm here."

Gu Shi heard Xie Jiusi's voice brought by the wind.

"That's a pun." Gu Shi said, skillfully spreading the rolled floor mat to the door of the warehouse, and slowly backed away along the melted road.

Xie Jiusi added a piece of firewood to the stove door, and when he heard Gu Shi say this, he pondered for a while.

"You mean thank you?"

Gu Shi nodded: "Full marks!"

The corner of Xie Jiusi's mouth curled up.

When Yu Liang looked at the time and reminded the elders that it was time to eat, as soon as the group went out, they saw mountains of silver snow and a paved road.

Zhao Wenzhong was surprised: "Xiao Gu did it?"

"Yeah." Gu Xiuming showed a bit of pride uncontrollably, and said something he would never say in front of Gu Shi, "My kid has always been sensible and capable."

He paused, glanced at Yu Jing, and raised his voice again: "He should have already cooked by this point."

"Oh." Zhao Wenzhong said with a smile, "I will love my wife in the future."

Gu Xiuming nodded and glanced at Yu Liang again.

Yu Liang, who received the hint from her eyes, instantly understood what the gang of elders were upsetting.

How many of you can do it?

Think she didn't die early enough or think she lived too well?

Yu Liang held her little niece in her arms, her fists were hard.

As Gu Xiuming said, Gu Shi has already prepared the meal.

Not only did he cook the meal, but he even took advantage of the time when Xie Jiusi was in a good mood while making soup, and dragged him for a walk around the newly vacated yard.

Gu Shi asked, "Which room do you want to live in?"

Xie Jiusi was slightly startled, and looked around the yard: "I live here?"

Gu Shi was alert and didn't respond.

Xie Jiusi refused: "I'm not with humans."

Gu Shi's head was bald: "But in the entire Cangwu Temple, except me, are all human beings?"

Xie Jiusi just looked down at Gu Shi.

Gu Shi:?

Xie Jiusi remained silent.

"Ah, oh!" Gu Shi suddenly felt blessed.

That being the case, it's not impossible for him to spend a night with this big brother.

Gu Shi was very straightforward: "Then you join me to live tonight?"

It's not like they didn't sleep in the same room when they went out before-although usually he slept and Xie Jiusi watched the online class all night.

This buddy is really quite motivated to learn.

"can."

Xie Jiusi was in a great mood when he got the answer he wanted.

Gu Shi hit the snake with a stick and took the opportunity to strike: "Then you help me?"

"what's up?"

"Heating problem in this yard!" Gu Shi clasped his hands together and bowed to Xie Jiusi, "Can I borrow some of your unused dragon scales as a heater?"

Xie Jiusi stopped.

Sometimes, Xie Jiusi would always wonder whether there was something wrong with him or something wrong with Gu Shi.

Why do most other gods and demons avoid him, but Gu Shi, a little monster, is so bold that he not only dares to go so far with him, but also dares to negotiate terms with him.

——Gu Shi actually asked him to borrow dragon scales to use as heat for humans.

Xie Jiusi didn't know for a while whether he should be angry because of this, or happy for Gu Shi's unscrupulous willfulness.

Willful because of closeness.

Gu Shi also stopped under the eaves of the corridor, observed Xie Jiusi's expression, and stretched out five fingers tentatively: "This number is good."

Xie Jiusi was expressionless.

Gu Shi thought for a while, then withdrew his thumb.

Xie Jiusi remained unmoved.

Gu Shi turned his head to look at the six rooms in the yard, hissed lightly, and withdrew his little finger again.

Xie Jiusi never responded.

Gu Shi didn't continue to curl his fingers, he whispered: "Great and almighty Zhongshan Mountain God, open your eyes and look here, there are six rooms..."

Xie Jiusi: "..."

After a long time, when Gu Shi was about to subtract another number, his fingers were pushed down by Xie Jiusi, leaving only one index finger standing upright.

Xie Jiusi: "Lend you a slice."

Gu Shi struggled and stretched out three fingers again: "One piece is also a loan and three pieces are also a loan, the great Zhongshan Mountain God, do it well!"

Xie Jiusi pressed all his fingers down: "Don't act like a baby."

Gu Shi was stunned, then withdrew his hand like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, took three big steps back, and looked at Xie Jiusi in surprise.

What's going on? What's going on? !

Doesn't this dragon really feel that his speech has always been problematic? !

Xie Jiusi just took out a piece of dragon scale, and looked suspiciously at Gu Shi's behavior.

Gu Shi looked at the dragon scale in Xie Jiusi's palm, then at Xie Jiusi, hesitating.

Gu Shi suspected that his head was infected by Yu Liang. He now thinks Xie Jiusi is gay no matter what he looks at—although Xie Jiusi has always felt this way, is the concentration a little over the limit in the past two days?

Do straight guys really say "don't act like a baby" to a guy of the same sex? !

No, no, no.

How could he act like a baby!

Gu Shi finally grasped the point, his pupils trembled.

Ah no, seriously? !

Under what circumstances would a guy say "don't act like a baby" to another guy?

Could it be that his behavior is acting like a baby in Xie Jiusi's eyes? !

What kind of filter did Xie Jiusi put on to think he was acting like a baby?

Gu Shi's expression gradually became subtle, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Xie Jiusi really had a problem.

Xie Jiusi inexplicably looked at Gu Shi whose expression management was slowly out of control: "Longlin, don't you want it?"

"I want it!" Gu Shi came back to his senses, the chicken pecked at the rice, and then looked around the yard, not knowing where to put it.

Xie Jiusi threw the dragon scale directly into the middle of the courtyard, and Gu Shi noticed that the temperature of the whole courtyard suddenly rose, and the snow melted a little.

Xie Jiusi made some adjustments to control the temperature range inside the room.

Gu Shi's little seal applauded: "That's amazing, thank you boss! You said earlier that you only need one piece!"

Xie Jiusi looked at Gu Shi who was three steps away from him: "What are you doing standing so far away?"

"Nothing, I was just thinking."

After Gu Shi finished answering, he still stood firmly in place, not daring to approach.

Xie Jiusi: "Thinking about what?"

Think about whether your sexual orientation is ♂ or ♀, or both, or... is it actually me?

Gu Shi's eyes fluttered: "Think about the origin of human beings and the universe... and so on."

Xie Jiusi was slightly taken aback, thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "What about God Pan Gu?"

"?"

Good guy, your Chinese scores must be very good, and you must be very good at reading comprehension, right?

Gu Shi nodded along the way: "Yes, God Pangu is indeed a big problem."

It is indeed a big problem.

Gu Shi's face was solemn, thinking in his heart what to do if Xie Jiusi was really a crook, and his orientation was still his.

"It's useless for you to think about it, you're too weak." Xie Jiusi had no expression on his face, but his tone was very sincere, "Instead of thinking about this, why don't you think about eating Emperor's juice tonight to improve yourself."

Gu Shi: "..."

Gu Shi's little guilty conscience and wavering was instantly chilled.
