I became popular after inheriting the Yo-kai Curio Shop

"Cough cough cough cough."

The director put down his teacup, propped himself on the table and coughed repeatedly.

You Xingyue took out a tissue and handed it to the chief: "Chairman, slow down."

The director struggled to stop his cough, took the tissue, wiped away the choked tears, and waved his hand to signal You Xingyue to sit down: "Is there really a water monkey?"

Water monkeys have always been images of monsters in the popular folk versions, and both water ghosts and water monsters can be different versions of water monkeys.

There are fish spirits and shrimp monsters in Yingjiang, and water ghosts and snake demons are normal, but after so many years, water ghosts are almost fished out, and most of the fish spirits and snake demons who can cultivate human form have come ashore. Yingjiang has not seen them for many years. Had trouble with monsters.

You Xingyue sat down and explained: "It's a weapon spirit that has cultivated a physical body."

The director stopped coughing, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief - it's just a matter of Qi Ling, isn't this a direct professional counterpart? !

The spirit of the tool has already taken human form, and it is already in the category of monsters, so just hand it over to the antique shop.

The director said: "The boss came this time to bring Qi Ling back to the antique shop, right? Since it is Qi Ling and has already turned into a human form, as long as Qi Ling himself agrees, we will not interfere with where it wants to go."

Their management bureau can't control the long-legged Qilings. Since the opening of the antique shop, many Qilings have gone to the antique shop because of its reputation of "not keeping customers".

Fortunately, there are no guests here, which saves the administration a lot of trouble - the spirits are different from ordinary monsters, they often fall into a deep sleep, and the times change when they wake up again.The General Administration enshrines a jade dragon, and it wakes up and sleeps like this. Sometimes a generation of directors will not see the jade dragon wake up from the time they enter the job to the time they are buried.

The modern society is changing with each passing day. These spirits who wake up from a deep sleep can't adapt for a while, and they will definitely cause trouble.

Not leaving guests is like a private large-scale children's shelter, finding suitable "guardians" for the spirits to reduce the occurrence of supernatural phenomena in the city.

Not to mention that the boss himself has also taken action to solve many evil ghosts.

You Xingyue explained: "This time the Qi Ling is quite special."

The director said with a smile on his face, "Boss is joking, you can hold back the spirit of a sword that has been around for more than 1000 years, and any weapon spirit can make you feel special to the boss."

You Xingyue: "Qianchao Zhenshanhe Dading."

The director smiled stiffly: "What tripod?"

There was indeed an extremely famous tripod in the Qian Dynasty, which was called "Zhenshanhe" in historical records, but these materials themselves are not authoritative, and there is no actual evidence to prove the existence of Zhenshanhe tripod.

The Administration has been established for over a hundred years, collecting information from all parties, and none of the ancestors said that there is really a tripod in Jiangli.

You Xingyue slowed down his speech and said word by word: "Zhen Shan He Ding."

He knew the shock in the director's heart, and lowered his voice intimately.

You Xingyue stayed up late last night to check Zhen Shanhe's specific information——

For the people of Yingjiang City, the name of Zhenshanhe is indeed impressive.And it's not just people from Yingjiang City, there was a heated discussion about Zhenshanhe in the country a few years ago.

You Xingyue remembered that it was about five or six years ago, when a tomb more than 2000 years ago was excavated in Yuanchen City, and a bamboo slip was unearthed in the tomb, which recorded Zhenshanheding, which once set off a heated discussion.

The bamboo slips recorded the weight of Zhenshanhe, the time when it was cast, and the person who cast it. Converting the weight into a modern unit of measurement, Zhenshanhe weighed [-] catties.

The information on the bamboo slips has aroused widespread discussion. Both scholars and netizens are looking forward to the release of Zhenshanhe.But after a few years, this bamboo slip has become the most powerful "evidence" in recent years. Although the legend of Zhenshanhe has been circulating in Yingjiang City, the existence of the tripod cannot be confirmed by the mainstream.

Gradually, Zhenshanhe has completely become a rumor, and even the officials have come down to refute the rumors, saying that Zhenshanhe probably does not exist.

What You Xingyue knew, of course the director also knew.

The director said in a daze, "Are you sure it's really Ding?"

You Xingyue said: "I'm [-] to [-]% sure. He has extremely strong purple energy and merits, and he has a soul that has cultivated a physical body. Ordinary spirits cannot do this."

Not to mention the spirits, even the ghosts and gods in the underworld can only be cultivated to the level of the ghost king. From the ghost to the master of the soul, they are all in the state of ghosts.

Judging from Jing Yi's unfamiliarity with spiritual power, it is obvious that he has not consciously cultivated for more than 2000 years.

In other words, Jing Yi's cultivation base is all the accumulation of merit and luck. Looking at the porcelain country for thousands of years, there are really few spirits who can do it.

The corner of the director's mouth trembled twice, he couldn't find a suitable expression, and he couldn't form effective words. In a trance, there was only one sentence in his mind: "Is there really?"

If Zhen Shanhe really was, then he could understand why the boss had to come to communicate with the administration.

This is too... too explosive!

I just want to swear!

"Qi Ling's name is Jing Yi. He woke up from the river a while ago, and when he went ashore, he was accidentally photographed in the video, so it was rumored to be a water monkey."

You Xingyue said: "The specific situation is a private matter of Qi Ling Jingyi. He is not here now, so I can't go into details. However, the Qi Ling in Zhenshanhe has been around for more than 2000 years. I want to arrange salvage as soon as possible if it is convenient. , It would be great if it can be caught before the Chinese New Year."

The director held back his excitement: "It's true, it's a big deal. But...do I need to discuss it with the General Administration?"

You Xingyue said: "Cheng Ju? She doesn't care about it, as long as the monsters don't cause major conflicts in the human world. And I think Jing Yi may be more able to meet humans."

……

Zhenshanhe Giant Ding is the most important thing that the administration has received in recent years. The director took his coat and hat and decided to go to the vicinity of Yingjiang with You Xingyue to have a look.

You Xingyue persuaded him a few words: "Yesterday I made an appointment with Qi Ling to see you in the evening, and I won't be able to see you even if I go now."

The director's hand holding the hat trembled slightly, which was the excitement after exerting great restraint: "No, boss, I want to take a look. I don't want to see him today. If you can accompany me there, you can show me Where did you meet him?"

You Xing was silent for a few seconds, and said, "Okay."

There were not many cars on the road, and it took more than an hour to drive from the administration to the riverside.

You Xingyue parked the car in the public parking lot near the snack street, and led the chief to the riverside: "Here, I saw him for the first time."

The director stood in the cold wind, the cold wind blowing by the river was severe, and the boats were passing by on the river, he tried to find the traces of the tripod with his naked eyes.

On the way here, You Xingyue and the chief briefed the problem of Jing Yi being trapped.

As long as the formation is removed, you can try to lift it with a crane.But I don't know how many days it will take to break the formation, and it may take a few days to salvage the Zhenshan River, and Yingjiang is not a private area, and it will definitely attract crowds, and there will be surveillance around.

As for sneaking it up, it's not impossible.But the question is... why do you want to fish it secretly?

That is not a cold bronze tripod, there is a soul waiting for more than 2000 years, waiting for the moment of seeing the light of day

The river water is cold enough, there is no need to be frozen to the core by the words "begging for perfection" once you are born.

You Xingyue didn't mention salvage in the middle of the night, and the director didn't think about it at all.

The director sighed softly: "I can't see it, the difficulty of breaking the formation and salvaging it may be very high."

The so-called vicissitudes of life, although the mainstream of Yingjiang has not changed its course for more than 2000 years, the bottom is not visible to the naked eye and is no longer the same as before.

You Xing smiled and pointed to a location: "There!"

He has a pair of eyes that can see clearly the entanglements in the world, so after seeing Jing Yi, he can tell the position of the tripod from the direction of the line.

The director immediately looked over, the wind on the river was cold and strong in winter, and the river was turbulent, and he couldn't see anything related to the formation.

In fact, time has passed, and how powerful the formation has been weakened by time, making it even more difficult to see clearly through the river.

He looked for it for a while, shook his head and smiled: "I can't see it! It's okay, I can see it when Zhenshanhe sees the sky again."

In fact, I knew I couldn’t see it before I came here, but when Boss You mentioned Zhenshanhe, I still couldn’t hold back my excitement and insisted on seeing it.

"Boss," the director looked away and said with a smile, "I am 57 this year, and I will retire in a few years. It is an honor to be able to see Zhenshanhe alive in my lifetime. It is an honor worth writing in my suicide note."

You Xing smiled more and more.

As a native of Yingjiang City, he quite understood the director's thoughts.

"Of course I am honored, after all, I have witnessed history."

The director rubbed his hands. He was really old, and his hands and feet felt cold after standing for a while: "I have to go back and report to the General Administration, and try to send someone over to salvage within a week."

You Xingyue said: "Are you coming to see Jing Yi tonight?"

Of course the director wanted to see him, but he hesitated for a few seconds before shaking his head: "Firstly, it's not good to see him hastily, and secondly, this matter is quite urgent. It's almost Chinese New Year now, and we have to finish it before everyone is on holiday. Or ask the boss to appease Qi Ling on our behalf, we will definitely complete the salvage as soon as possible."

You Xing nodded more. He knew that it would take time from reporting to execution, and the time was really tight for the director, so he nodded: "Okay, I will tell Jing Yi what the director said."

After the director rushed back to the office, the first thing he did was to make a phone call to the main office of the Imperial Capital.

In just a few minutes, the General Administration knocked over a dozen thermos cups.

Listening to the various coughing sounds at the other end, the director felt a subtle sense of refreshment: Actually, it's quite refreshing not to be a human being.

You Xingyue sent the director back, and before going back to the antique shop, he bought a whole set of toys from a passing supermarket, ranging from excavators to cranes.

Back in the store, Shi Wuyan obediently sat at the table by the window, copying couplets——

Before the Spring Festival, You Xingyue planned to draw hundreds of fans among his fans to send handwritten couplets, just like the famous lines written by Gu Chengfei in the warehouse.

Originally, Lan Yin, Qi Zhiyu and Shi Wuyan wrote [-] copies together, but due to too much time to go back and forth, with You Xingyue's acquiescence, both Lan Yin and Qi Zhiyu pushed their share to Shi Wuyan.

This is an opportunity to bully back and forth!

Absolutely can't let it go.

Shi Wuyan also walked the world in his early years, so copying couplets was not difficult for him.

But [-] copies is indeed a lot. The most important thing is that You Xingyue's request is "you don't need a soul, just copy the image."

Shi Wuyan's writing is self-contained, and it is indeed much more difficult for him to imitate than to write.

Lan Yin and Bu Liuke hid behind and secretly laughed, while the customers in the store quietly held up their mobile phones to take pictures.

You Xingyue put the toy suit in his hand on the chair, and coughed lightly.

Shi Wuyan put down his pen and looked up at You Xingyue.

You Xing nodded the paper more, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "If I can make a copy tonight, I will go out with you tomorrow."

Shi Wuyan's eyes fell on the chair: "Is this a reward?"

You Xing glanced at the excavator suit: "Uh... this is a children's toy."

Toys for older children over 2000 years old include various types of excavators, cranes, road rollers, small shovels and small buckets.

Before seeing the light of day again, Jing Yi can play with sand by the river.
