be happy

"Brother." Lu Chenzhou hurried over with Luo Qianfan, holding the unfinished fireworks in his arms.

After Luo Qianfan stood still, he was out of breath.

"Just now a head flew up from the sky, brother, can you see it?" Lu Chenzhou looked serious.

"Yes." Lu Yu nodded.

Tao Ranran pointed to the corpse lying on the side, and said, "It flew away right under our noses."

"What happened?" Lu Chenzhou asked nervously, "Brother and sister-in-law, is Mr. Tao injured?" He almost called his sister-in-law, but luckily he reacted quickly enough.

"That's not true." Tao Ranran shook his head, "It's just that this big Chinese New Year festival scares some passers-by and ruins the good atmosphere."

"Let's go, go back first." Lu Yu said.

"Don't you want to find the murderer?" Lu Chenzhou was puzzled. If someone died for no reason, shouldn't he find the murderer first?

Tao Ranran shrugged, and said: "The monster is causing trouble, and its cultivation base is too high, so I can't find it now."

So, the four of them came here in high spirits, but returned in disappointment.

Tao Daoxi was squatting by the door, her round eyeballs were rolling, and she whispered from time to time: "Why haven't you come back yet?"

"Daoxi? Why are you squatting here?" Tao Ranran just stepped up the steps when she saw Tao Daoxi squatting in the dark shivering.

Tao Daoxi, who had been drowsy before, woke up instantly with a jolt, stood up and cupped his hands at Tao Ranran and said, "Second Young Master."

"Go back and rest, it's cold here." Tao Ranran said with a smile.

"Did the second son meet Miss Shen when he went out to play?" Tao Daoxi hesitated for a while, but still asked.

Tao Ranran froze for a moment, shook his head, and said, "No, what's the matter?"

"Miss Shen said to look for you, but she couldn't find you?" Tao Daoxi was extremely surprised.

"No." Tao Ranran thought about it carefully, but did not meet Shen Haiyue.

"Second Young Master, do you think Miss Shen is weird?" Tao Daoxi approached Tao Ranran and asked in a low voice.

Tao Ranran blinked and said, "Yes."

"So you think so too?" Tao Daoxi said pleasantly.

"Weird, very weird." Tao Ranran said helplessly.

Tao Daoxi's expression froze for a moment, then returned to normal, and said, "I mean other places."

"Apart from temper, what else is wrong?" Tao Ranran asked puzzled.

Tao Daoxi moved her lips, but did not say a word after all.

"Okay, go to sleep." Tao Ranran patted him on the shoulder.

At this moment, Shen Haiyue, whom the two were talking about, just came back, her slender hair was scattered on her shoulders, and Bu Yao was loosely slanted, her lips were as red as blood, with a trace of indescribable weirdness.

Tao Daoxi didn't know why, but he felt hairy in his heart, and ran away.

"Eh?" Tao Ranran looked at Tao Daoxi suspiciously, why is this kid running so fast?

Shen Haiyue's steps were a little stiff, when she walked to Tao Ranran's side, she turned her head and said, "What are you doing standing here?"

"Where are you going?" Tao Ranran asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid to scare people with this appearance?"

There was no expression in Shen Haiyue's eyes, she said: "You don't need to worry about it." After finishing speaking, she walked away.

Shen Haiyue's walking posture attracted Tao Ranran's attention, walking three steps and stopping, very weird.

It rained suddenly at night, and the bean-sized raindrops hit the tiles, making a "click" sound, and some penetrated into the room through the broken tiles and fell wantonly.

Tao Ranran fell into a drowsy sleep, but felt her face was icy cold, startled, sat up immediately, raised her hand to wipe her face, luckily, it was water.

I lost all sleepiness for a while, put on my coat, lit the candles on the candlestick, and saw the rain clearly in front of me by the candlelight.

Tao Ranran sighed helplessly, moved the quilt on the couch to a dry place, and put a wooden basin there to hold the rainwater.As for the other three places, there is nothing.

"It's worse than my house." Luo Qianfan hugged the quilt, curled up, and leaned against the wall with a disgusted expression on his face. The house looked fine from the outside, but it would leak rain.

Lu Chenzhou yawned, and said lazily, "Okay, don't complain, just settle down."

"Let's go back at dawn." Luo Qianfan said.

"No, I want to stay a few more days." Lu Chenzhou refused.

Luo Qianfan frowned dissatisfied, and said, "What's so good about it?"

"Sister-in-law is here." Lu Chenzhou replied.

Seeing that Lu Chenzhou was so sleepy that he could barely keep his eyes open, Luo Qianfan swallowed back the words, raised his arms to wrap around Lu Chenzhou's shoulders, and pulled him into his arms.

Lu Chenzhou fell down, and after a while, a shallow snoring sounded.

"It can eat and sleep at the same time, just like a pig." Luo Qianfan said softly.

Tao Ranran lay down in front of the desk, changed several positions, but was still uncomfortable, and scratched her head irritably.

"What are you doing?" There was a voice from the window.

Looking at the familiar black shadow by the window, Tao Ranran pushed the wooden window open a crack and said, "Why didn't you sleep?"

"It's raining, the quilt is wet." Lu Yu said.

"Hey, me too." Tao Ranran smiled and rubbed his hands, "It's cold outside, come in and have a seat." He opened the door as he spoke.

Lu Yu's body was covered with a bit of chill, and he felt warmer after entering the room.

"The house has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is inevitable that there will be some rain. I have wronged Sect Master Lu." Tao Ranran said with a trace of apology.

"Tao Shi." Lu Yu said.

"Huh?" Tao Ranran was slightly taken aback. It turned out that Lu Yu called him by his first and last name when he was angry, but recently Lu Yu always called him "Mr. Tao" politely.

"What do you think about the man who died at night?" Lu Yu asked.

Tao Ranran was inexplicably relieved, but he also felt a sense of loss in his heart, which didn't show on his face, and said, "If it's a monster, it won't be just this one time, but we don't know what the other party's purpose is, so we now Somewhat passive."

"Yes." Lu Yu nodded slightly, "I can only sit and wait."

Tao Ranran pondered for a moment, then said, "I have a plan."

"Let's listen to it." Lu Yu said.

"Using evil to attract evil, all things are willing to submit to the strong. Gather all the evil things in the city and attract them here." Tao Ranran said.

"No!" Lu Yu didn't even think about it, and directly refused, "This kind of crooked way hurts people's hearts and nature, and it must not be practiced."

Tao Ranran sneered: "Just talking casually."

"It's okay to just say it casually." Lu Yu said coldly.

"Well, okay, let's not talk about it." Tao Ranran's eyes darkened slightly.

The two just sat facing each other, chatting with each other until dawn.

In the morning, everyone drank sweet potato porridge, and the cold body warmed up a lot.

Tao Ranran was talked about by Luo Qianfan for a long time, asking him to pick up tiles.

Tao Ranran brought a ladder and asked Luo Qianfan to carry the intact tiles piled up under the corridor, while he carefully climbed up to the roof, picked up the broken tiles one by one, and threw them on the ground.After going around the roof, all the broken tiles have been picked up.

"Okay, Luo Qianfan, pass me the tile." Tao Ranran lowered his head and shouted to Luo Qianfan below.

Holding a few tiles in one hand and the ladder in the other, Luo Qianfan slowly climbed up and handed them to Tao Ranran.

Tao Ranran took the tile and put it up decently.

After about half an hour, Tao Ranran straightened up and said, "Luo Qianfan, as a reward, you will bring me some sweet potatoes every year."

"Good idea! This is building your own house." Luo Qianfan rolled his eyes at him.

"But you're going to sleep here for the next few days." Tao Ranran said, "If you don't agree, I'll lift the tiles right now." As he said that, he bent down and tried to lift the tiles.

"One basket!" Luo Qianfan gritted his teeth, he didn't want to sleep in a leaky house anymore.

Tao Ranran smiled triumphantly: "That's it, one basket every year, I happen to have a basket here, and when the sweet potatoes are ripe, I'll go to your place and bring a basket back."

Luo Qianfan: "..." Don't think he didn't see Baichuan's bamboo basket, which was twice as big as his.

Tao Ranran turned around and was about to go down, but saw Shen Haiyue in front of him wrapping a thread around a branch, and then circling in the yard.

"I said Miss Shen, what are you doing? Is Xueyue always wrapping the red thread? How about I come and count your marriage for you?" Tao Ranran teased.

The movements of Shen Haiyue's hands froze, she looked up at Tao Ranran on the roof, an unknown look flashed in her eyes, she stuffed the remaining thread into her sleeve, and replied: "Let you count? Then I am a widow lifetime?"

"No, no, I'm sure I'll find a good husband, full of children and grandchildren." Tao Ranran said with a smile.

Shen Haiyue was stunned for a moment, and said, "I would like to borrow your good words."

Tao Ranran wanted to say something, but saw that Lu Yu had entered the yard at some point and was looking at him, so he immediately shut up and stepped down the ladder obediently.

"Master Tao is really versatile." Lu Yu said.

"Hey, where is it?" Tao Ranran laughed a few times.

Lu Yu took a deep look at him, and said, "I also entrust Mr. Tao to my yard."

"Okay, okay." Tao Ranran responded repeatedly.

Carrying the ladder to Lu Yu's yard and climbing up to the roof, Tao Ranran was dumbfounded. The tiles in the middle were all broken.Looking down at the house through the hole, only the couch was wet, but there was no water stain in other places.

Tao Ranran looked at the broken tiles again. It stands to reason that the room should be completely wet, and it shouldn't be possible that only the couch was wet, is it possible?

"Young Master Tao." Lu Yu's voice sounded again.

"Ah?" Tao Ranran recovered.

"Do you need Lu's help?" Lu Yu asked.

Tao Ranran shook his head and said, "No need, stand far away, don't get hit by me."

This busy work took a whole morning, and when Tao Ranran returned to the ground again, her legs were already weak, and she couldn't even walk steadily.

Finally, Tao Daoxi was called to carry the ladder together.

"Huh? Isn't Second Young Master collecting tiles for Young Master Luo's yard?" Tao Daoxi asked in surprise.

"Sect Master Lu said that this courtyard also needs to be picked up." Tao Ranran said weakly.

"I saw Sect Master Lu pacing back and forth on the roof just now, and I thought that Sect Master Lu was already picking up tiles." Tao Daoxi recalled.

Tao Ranran suddenly realized that it was really as he thought, Lu Yu broke the tile by himself, it was really a waste, a waste of his time, a waste of tiles.

After finally having a free time to rest and drink hot tea to moisten the throat, a group of people came in from the door.

"You, why are you here?" Tao Ranran was stunned.
