Neither of them was picky, and there was a lot of excitement in the pot. Tangxi didn't expect that even though he couldn't chat with this person, the meal was still very enjoyable. Sui Ren had a good grasp of the timing of the ingredients, and he didn't seem to be the first at all. People who eat spicy pot for the first time can judge its taste from the color of the meat slices.

After Tangxi tasted two bites of Sui Rentang's pork ribs, he was willing to bet and waited for Sui Rentang to pick up the ready-made ones. Halfway through eating, Tangxi even brought out the monkey wine he had chilled.

The taste of this wine is mellow and sweet, with different layers of mouthfeel, as well as the sweetness of fruit, and the aftertaste is a strong bouquet.

Because he was eating hot pot and the temperature inside the house was very warm, Tangxi didn't think about warming the wine, but served the dishes with ice wine.

The two of them exchanged cups and cups, and the host and guest had a great time eating a meal, which was very enjoyable.

Halfway through the meal, a gray harrier flew in from outside the door. Tangxi was a little curious at first, but Sui Ren told her after seeing it that it was the communication bird of Yichasi. Sui Ren took out a silver whistle from his waist, put it in his mouth and blew it, and took out the letter inside to have a look.

Tangxi originally thought that Yichasi had sent New Year's blessings, but Sui Ren's face gradually became serious, he put the paper ball into his arms, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, we may I'm going to miss my appointment."

Probably after drinking a little wine, Tangxi was just on the rise, so she didn't want to leave so quickly. Normally, she would be considerate and relieved not to care, but now she asked with an unhappy face: "What's the matter? Who is there? Did you miss your appointment during Chinese New Year?"

Sui Ren was also full of reluctance, he explained: "It's not about other things, it's my colleague who came to ask for help."

He seemed a little afraid of Tangxi's misunderstanding. After hearing this, Tangxi raised his eyebrows, glanced at the wine in the glass, and drank it in one gulp. His eyes were clouded by alcohol, and he patted his chest and said, "I thought someone asked you to go. Let’s play, no, since it’s a colleague who came to ask for help, I’m going too.”

Sui Ren was a little embarrassed. He suspected that Tangxi was drunk, so he carefully persuaded him: "If you are in the Chinese New Year, don't go out with me. There may be a fight. If you get hurt, the omen is not good."

I don't know why, Sui Ren was extra careful about Tangxi's safety, but Tangxi didn't care too much: "It's not that I haven't celebrated the New Year like this, I'll go with you, anyway, I'm also your temporary partner, Mr. During the Chinese New Year, it’s a bit too pitiful for you to run there alone.”

When saying this, Tangxi gave Sui Ren a smiling face, which made Sui Ren nod his head: "Okay." He was confident that he could protect Tangxi well.

Only then did Tangxi feel happier, took another bite of the pork ribs in the bowl and said, "What's the matter? Let's talk about it first so we can get ready."

Sui Ren sat back on his seat again, unfolded the small note, waved his hand lightly, and a few characters floated on the note: "Qinghe County, Dream Demon Occupies the City."

Tangxi was very interested: "What's the matter with this demon's dream?" It's not the first time she has met a succubus. Ordinary succubus will only enter people's dreams to create nightmares, and then harvest the fear in people's hearts to increase their strength.

When did this succubus become strong enough to occupy a county town? Sui Ren waved his hand again, and a picture appeared on the white paper. Everyone in the city should have been sitting around to watch the New Year, but now everyone is lying on the table, lying on the table. He fell asleep on the ground in a mess, and instead of being helpless trapped in a nightmare, there was a smile on his face.

No matter men, women, young or old, people of any grade, they all have ruddy and shiny complexions, which makes people suspect that they are having some kind of sweet dream.

Tangxi became even more curious, and Sui Ren explained: "The succubi can only sneak into the dreams of children, because children's self-awareness is relatively weak, and they are easier to scare. It doesn't take too much effort to create dreams to scare them, and The quality of this kind of fear is quite good, and the dream monster will grow rapidly after absorbing this emotion."

Tangxi nodded to show that she knew, and then waited for Sui Ren to continue: "When the succubi's ability reaches a certain level, it will target other people, and it will not only rely on fear, but will also Want to suck the essence of human beings."

Tangxi nodded at the table: "You mean, he created a good dream, so that people couldn't wake up, and then unconsciously contributed his energy to the magic dream in the dream."

Sui Ren nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, that's it. The people in Qinghe County have all been recruited. There are too many of them, and the ability of Demon Dream has increased sharply. Not only can it sneak into people's dreams to create dreams, it can even make people Lucid dreaming, including the special commissioner who went to investigate this matter, all had illusions and lucid dreaming."

Tangxi held back a smile: "The investigators you sent out were ambushed by the succubus, which means the quality is not particularly good."

Sui Ren didn't say anything but added: "Probably because he underestimated the enemy. On the first day he just went there, he thought the people here were normal. During the day, everyone looked like ordinary people, and No one leaked anything about the dream, he thought it was false information, so he thought he could retreat, but he fell into a trap while eating."

Tangxi smiled for a while, then nodded, and asked Sui Ren to follow her to the study: "Since I want to go with you, I will also bring some of my things, so as not to hold you back."

Most people prepare these magic tools in a secret way, so as not to let people know that Lao Di is plotting against him, but Tangxi obviously has no intention of avoiding him. Sui Ren helped Tangxi put a lot of things that were written on the list into the treasure chest. thing.

Tangxi rummaged through a pile of scrolls by himself, and finally found one and showed it to Sui Ren excitedly: "Look, I helped you find this trump card."

Sui Ren had just packed the treasure chest, and when he heard the sound, he brought the treasure chest to Tangxi, and asked by the way: "What kind of trump card?"

Tangxi proudly showed off what was in her hand and said, "That's it, Dream Eater."

There is a lush tree on the scroll, but there is nothing else.

Tangxi tapped on the scroll, and saw a little ripple on the scroll, Tangxi said: "Little elephant, you are going to help me fight today."

There was an elephant call from inside the scroll, Tangxi rolled up the scroll, shrunk it into a small piece and hung it around his neck, then said: "Okay, they agreed, we will definitely be able to come back after this trip .”

Dream Eater Sui Ren has also seen it before. This kind of creature doesn't like to be seen by others. If caught, it will try to escape. Few people can train Dream Eater to follow him.

But there seemed to be more than one dream-eating elephant hidden in Tangxi's painting, Sui Ren was a little curious about how capable this girl is, so Sui Ren and Tangxi got into the carriage.

If you use fairy art, it will probably attract the attention of the dream demon. It is too unkind to ask the commander or the county magistrate to borrow a car at this time. There are no rickshaws for work outside, so Sui Ren can only rent one for money. Here comes the carriage.

Tang Xi sat inside, Sui Ren sat outside and drove, the moon was sparse, and occasionally a little snow foam drifted in the sky, some of the street lamps outside were still on, and some were about to be extinguished by no one adding oil in time. Liangtang, the carriage ran quite fast, and the scenery outside also receded.

Tangxi touched the painting scroll on her neck, and her eyes closed as soon as they touched it. She felt that the carriage was shaking less frequently, and gradually all the movements disappeared.

When Tangxi opened her eyes again, she was on a strange little bed. There was a small square table not far away. There were steaming dumplings and some freshly fried side dishes on the table. It was a child who woke her up.

He has a round face and a head of black hair that seems to have just woken up, but his eyes are a little amber. After seeing Tangxi wake up, he happily called out: "Sister, you finally woke up, if you don't wake up again , our New Year's Eve dinner is getting cold, and my parents won't let me touch my chopsticks."

Tangxi's head was blank, looking at the little boy, and then at the man sitting in front of the table, the man was pouring wine and drinking, taking a sip of the dumplings: "The more you drink the dumplings, the more delicious they are, next year will be another one." Good year."

After speaking, he happened to turn his head, looked at Tangxi and smiled and said: "Hey, our girl is awake, mother of the child, get a coat for the girl."

After finishing speaking, a kind woman came over, holding a pink padded jacket in her hand. She sat down and put on Tangxi's coat: "I told you not to sleep, you must listen, now it's fine, When I woke up, I let my younger brother finish setting off all the fireworks I bought."

Tangxi was stunned for a moment, subconsciously raised her hand following the woman's movements, asked the woman to put on her clothes and said tentatively, "Mother..."

The woman responded, and asked with some doubts: "What's the matter? You want to act like a baby after sleeping? Didn't you wake up?"

Tangxi shook her head, then nodded again: "I may be a little confused, I remember who I seemed to have dinner with on New Year's Eve?"

After hearing this, the kid immediately said furiously, "Who did you eat with?? Why didn't you bring me? I want to eat whatever I eat."

The man over there laughed a few times, and then said: "Sure enough, I was sleepy. It must be the New Year's Eve dinner in my dream. Get up, you must be hungry."

Tangxi frowned, looking at the three people who were staring at her eagerly, always felt a little strange, but the woman pulled Tangxi into her arms and patted her on the back, saying, "Oh, the real mother has long hair in her arms. Little girl, sleepy and still sleepy, get up and eat, it will be cold in a while, it won't taste good, today I made Tangxi's favorite beef dumplings, this beef is not easy to buy, your father ran away It's so far away."

Muttering softly dispelled the strange feeling in Tangxi's heart, so she could only nod her head in response: "Okay, mother, I'm up."
