Jia Yu's Detective Case
Chapter 7 7
Cang Li was very happy with Jia Yu's change from being cautious at the beginning to being casual and brisk now.
Looking at the familiar person walking over with a smile, he sat down beside him.
"I feel very good today?"
"Well, did you see it?"
"It's much lighter than the previous few days. It was like carrying a heavy burden before, but now it's much better."
Jia Yu laughed:
"Well, I ate crabs today, and they said that crabs are the fattest in this season! This is the first time I have eaten crabs in two lifetimes, and they are so big..." Jia Yu gestured.
Boss Cang chuckled:
"delicious?"
Jia Yu nodded: "It just feels good, and I drank some chrysanthemum wine. Boss Cang has eaten crabs, right?"
Boss Cang shook his head:
"No."
Jia Yu's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it. He hadn't eaten crabs because his family was poor, but Boss Cang couldn't afford crabs, could he?He has never eaten such a delicious thing?
Can not help asking:
"Haven't you ever eaten crab? Then what do you eat? And don't you run a tavern?" In his understanding, the tavern should have most of the dishes, right?
Boss Cang smiled and shook his head, but did not speak.
What to eat
He was afraid that it would scare him.
Since Pangu sacrificed himself to heaven and earth, he was the first ancestor witch to form.
When he was not enlightened, he ate everything, living and inanimate, and even swallowed everything until he met him.
Jia Yu wasn't disappointed when she didn't get an answer, she looked around:
"I remember the book I read said that the 'half step' has a huge space, it can hold thousands of people without feeling crowded, and there are people from all walks of life coming and going, it should be very lively, how can it be so..." Frustrated?dilapidated?
Xiao Jing excitedly pawed at the door that was missing half of the door and listened, only hoping that the young master could persuade his master.
Boss Cang didn't care and said:
"Before I was in a bad mood, I was impatient and opened the door, so I closed the door. As for this place... half a step is supported by faith and voluntary offering of soul power, and it will be broken if there is no energy for a long time."
"Your mood has been adjusted for 3000 million years, and it has not been adjusted for a long time." Xiao Jing complained softly.
He said this to Jia Yu, he and his master are in the same mind, he doesn't know what the master is thinking, but the master can catch every thought of him, there is no need to speak.
Tell a lively snake to be silent for 3000 million years, and he will almost forget how to speak.
Sure enough, Jia Yu heard it, and he looked at Boss Cang in surprise:
"3000 million years? Are you feeling lonely after 3000 million years like this?"
"There is no concept of time in the void, not to mention 3000 million years, even [-] million years may be just a moment, don't listen to Xiaojing's nonsense."
Jia Yu didn't understand what he said, but was curious:
"Are you really looking for someone?"
Boss Cang nodded.
"Who is so persistent and still looking for it after so long?" Jia Yu muttered inexplicably, feeling a little sour for no reason.
"Huh?" Boss Cang pretended not to hear.
"It's okay, I mean, did you find it? It's been so many years, can't you find it?"
Boss Cang raised the jug and took a sip:
"No matter how long you look for it, you have to look for it, and you can't stop until I dissipate."
So persistent?Jia Yu took a sip of Baihua Niang.
"Then you just sit here and don't go out, don't take the initiative to search for information, how can you find someone?"
"What about your opinion?"
Boss Cang indulged with a good temper.
He didn't tell Jia Yu that the person he was looking for didn't need anyone to tell him the news, he had his own way to find it, and only he could find it, and most importantly, he had already found it.
Jia Yu's eyes lit up:
"I think since this is a tavern, it would be a pity to close it. Why don't we reopen it, so that there will be more customers and more news, won't it be more labor-saving?"
Suddenly the tavern shook, and Jia Yu was so frightened that he hugged Boss Cang's arm and buried his face in his wide sleeves, not daring to raise his head:
"Yes, is there another monster attacking the tavern?"
Boss Cang patted him helplessly and dotingly:
"There are no monsters."
"Really? Then why is the tavern shaking?"
"It doesn't shake anymore."
Jia Yu felt it, and it really stopped shaking, so she raised her head with sweat on her face.
Boss Cang swallowed and sighed, took out a handkerchief from nowhere and carefully wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"Is it really that scary?"
"That's natural, the monster looks so scary..." I shivered, thinking it was scary.
Boss Cang was speechless. He was so afraid of monsters and wanted to open a tavern. He didn't know that when the tavern door opened, would there be all kinds of guests?Monsters and monsters have different looks, and in his eyes, they are all monsters, so he is not afraid?
Jia Yu didn't notice so much. At this moment, he was attracted by a luminous place in the tavern.
"Then, what is that? Why didn't you see it appearing with light before?" It was like a baby was born.
"Go and have a look if you're curious."
"Okay, shall we go together?"
Grabbing Boss Cang's arm with one hand, it was obviously done by outsiders.
I want to go and have a look, but I am afraid that a monster will suddenly appear.
Boss Cang got up from the rattan chair and led him over.
Only then did Jia Yu realize that Boss Cang was so much taller than him, and he only reached below the other's shoulders.
He grabbed the opponent's arm and was led to the glowing wall.
"This... what is this?"
Just a ball of light dancing on the wall:
"Welcome, my shopkeeper!" A line of words flashed where the little ball of light jumped.
"...You mistook the person, I am not the shopkeeper, this is the shopkeeper!"
He wanted to pull Boss Cang forward, but he didn't.
The light of the small ball of light dimmed, obviously a little afraid of Boss Cang, and then lit up, dancing like a dog's leg, and wrote a line of words.
"No, that's right, he is the owner of this place, belongs to the boss, and you are the shopkeeper. No conflict, Jia Yu, would you like to be the half-step shopkeeper?"
"..." It turns out that the shopkeeper is also a buddy.
Jia Yu is not a hot-headed young man, he is just brisk in front of Cang Li, rarely uses his brain, and calm in front of other people and things.
Looking at Boss Cang: "What is it?"
"Half-step spirit."
"Spirit? Half a step is alive?" Jia Yu's scalp was numb.God knows that he has always been a little afraid of these supernatural things.
The ball of light on the wall danced vigorously, trying to attract Jia Yu's attention.
Boss Cang took a look at the light ball and wrote lightly:
"It's the utensils, which may give birth to spirituality after a long time. It was caused by the shaking of the tavern just now."
Jia Yu looked over, and the light group started to jump up again, writing on the wall:
"You haven't accepted yet, come on, it's good for you to be the shopkeeper here, you can be invincible under a certain state, and you can also receive a salary, which is very cost-effective. And as the shopkeeper, you can also be considered a half There are so many benefits to being a master!"
Xiao Jing, who was hiding aside, despised this flattering spirit, and even went so far as to please others.
half master?Having a store of her own is something that Jia Yu has dreamed of for two lifetimes.
What's more, it was still the legendary "half step", he admitted that he was a little moved.
Boss Cang didn't stop Guangqiu from lobbying him, and couldn't help laughing when he saw that he was a little moved:
"Want to reopen this place?"
Jia Yu said embarrassedly:
"This is your place, so it's up to you to decide." He didn't want the dove to occupy the magpie's nest.
"I'm just impatient to deal with other people. It doesn't matter if you are in charge of me."
At this time, Xiao Jing couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed out. Although she was tall, she was very careful, and stopped a few meters away from Jia Yu very carefully, and looked at him with burning eyes:
"Young master, you should go down. Once the tavern opens, there will be many interesting things and novelty items. Also, the boss's wine is running out. If the tavern opens, you can exchange drinks for the boss if you make a profit!" The attitude of the most loyal mount in the world.
It's a pity that Boss Cang was not moved by him, he just glanced at him sideways and ignored him.
Jia Yu looked at Boss Cang, he just cared about Boss Cang's attitude.
Boss Cang nodded:
"Just do it if you want to do it, and it's the same if you turn it off when you don't want to do it."
Jia Yu was overjoyed, and then hesitated:
"But I only have a little time to come here at night. It seems that I don't have much time to stay here, so forget it."
"It's okay, just open the door when you have time."
"..." This is too casual, can you make money by being so willful?But it is obvious that Boss Cang's words are serious and not teasing him.
In the end, Jia Yu couldn't bear the curiosity in her heart and agreed.
Now Xiao Jing no longer frowns, as if she has been injected with vitality all of a sudden, she looks at Jia Yu expectantly:
"Shopkeeper, when will we open for business?" I wish Jia Yu could say "immediately".
Jia Yu swallowed, and looked at the gray and plain scenery around:
"Here, we have to tidy up the store before we can open it?"
Boss Cang nodded:
"That's right, it's really time to tidy up before driving. You've been here for a long time today. It's time to go back and rest, otherwise you won't be refreshed tomorrow morning."
Xiao Jing swallowed back what she almost said just now, and didn't dare to intervene to remind her, for fear of offending the master, she refused to ask to open the door.
The cultivation base of the people who work in the tavern grows with the tavern. Since the owner stopped opening the door for business, his cultivation base has not increased. No matter how long his life span is, he is afraid of dying.
It was so easy for the master to let go, he had to be careful, for fear of offending the shopkeeper who shouldn't offend and angering the master.
Jia Yu hesitated:
"It's just that the two of you can't clean up well, why don't I not go back tonight and help you clean up together?" He is still young, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't sleep all night.
But Cang Li disagreed, and said lightly:
"The purpose of opening a tavern is to have fun. If it delays your business and damages your health, then you might as well not open it!"
Xiao Jing's eyes are wide open, the master doesn't care about life and death, and treats the tavern as a pastime, he can't do it!
Banbuling also turned around in a hurry, afraid that the two of them would change their minds.
Seeing that Boss Cang insisted on sending her back to rest, Jia Yu had no choice but to agree. As I said earlier, he is the worst at rejecting other people's kindness.
Back on the bed, Jia Yu was so excited that she couldn't sleep.
From today on, he is a senior wage earner!
The shopkeeper of the legendary "half step" is a "half step" that only exists in the legend!
Think about what he thought when he saw the legend of "Half Step" when he was a child?
It is said that all creatures in the world have souls, and what Banbu likes most is to collect the souls of all races. They can use the souls to make transactions, and Banbu will collect a certain amount of souls according to the other party's request.
It uses money as a unit for souls, and the weight of souls of intelligent creatures varies, up to ten coins, of course, the lowest may be less than one coin, such things are not accepted at half a step, unless the other party is a "fate."
To put it bluntly, half a step is equivalent to a pawn shop, but unlike a pawn shop that accepts all valuables, it only accepts the power of the soul.
Do you remember what your original wish was?
It seems to want to find half a step, and trading with it can earn enough "tuition fees" for a year tomorrow, so that I don't have to worry about how to get money every day.
Jia Yu wanted to laugh, at that time, she never imagined that one day she would be rescued by Banbu Boss, and she would also be the shopkeeper!
After laughing for less than three seconds, Jia Yu's face turned pale, and she couldn't smile any more. She covered her face with the quilt, sweating coldly, trembling all over, muttering:
"Illusion! It must be an illusion! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Looking at the familiar person walking over with a smile, he sat down beside him.
"I feel very good today?"
"Well, did you see it?"
"It's much lighter than the previous few days. It was like carrying a heavy burden before, but now it's much better."
Jia Yu laughed:
"Well, I ate crabs today, and they said that crabs are the fattest in this season! This is the first time I have eaten crabs in two lifetimes, and they are so big..." Jia Yu gestured.
Boss Cang chuckled:
"delicious?"
Jia Yu nodded: "It just feels good, and I drank some chrysanthemum wine. Boss Cang has eaten crabs, right?"
Boss Cang shook his head:
"No."
Jia Yu's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it. He hadn't eaten crabs because his family was poor, but Boss Cang couldn't afford crabs, could he?He has never eaten such a delicious thing?
Can not help asking:
"Haven't you ever eaten crab? Then what do you eat? And don't you run a tavern?" In his understanding, the tavern should have most of the dishes, right?

"Your mood has been adjusted for 3000 million years, and it has not been adjusted for a long time." Xiao Jing complained softly.
He said this to Jia Yu, he and his master are in the same mind, he doesn't know what the master is thinking, but the master can catch every thought of him, there is no need to speak.
Tell a lively snake to be silent for 3000 million years, and he will almost forget how to speak.
Sure enough, Jia Yu heard it, and he looked at Boss Cang in surprise:
"3000 million years? Are you feeling lonely after 3000 million years like this?"
"There is no concept of time in the void, not to mention 3000 million years, even [-] million years may be just a moment, don't listen to Xiaojing's nonsense."
