What to do with a full-scale life

Chapter 289 robbery

"Recently, the frequency of your reading has increased a lot. Are you planning to go out and become the leader after the whole people practice?"

Jin Mei put an exquisite small bag by the counter, and sat down opposite Brother Zhang.There was no one at this point, Brother Zhang was sitting there with a book in his hand, and the search page was displayed on the mobile phone next to him, which showed that he was looking up information while reading a book, and he looked quite serious.

"If you don't read books, you will be abandoned by the times." Brother Zhang looked up at her and said, "I have to try my best not to let myself become the first reaction after seeing something new, 'what's the use' and 'it's useful'. What's the point' kind of guy."

"I still love life."

Jin Mei said and took out a ticket from her small bag: "Come with me to the movies tomorrow."

"Huh? New Heavenly Immortal Match?" Xiao Zhang glanced at the ticket: "Aren't you making yourself uncomfortable?"

"Hahaha, it's okay, I just like to watch these mortals choreograph me. I heard that the Queen Mother in this movie has a relationship history with Dong Yong's father. The reason why she doesn't let Seven Fairies and Dong Yong together is because she Emotionally hurt." Jin Mei introduced with a smile: "Then Dong Yong's father came out, and the two lovers finally got married."

Brother Zhang pursed his lips and frowned for a long time without speaking, but Jin Mei said cheerfully, "This is quite interesting."

"How should I describe it..." Xiao Zhang was silent for a moment: "Let me organize the language."

"Eating wire to pull fences, I really can weave." Jin Mei covered her mouth and giggled: "Tomorrow's 10:30 show, after watching it at [-] o'clock, I just went out for lunch."

"it is good."

After Xiao Zhang put the tickets away, Jin Mei picked up her bag and walked away, but Xiao Zhang noticed that she was wearing high heels and a skirt that reached her knees, which was in line with her usual attire They are all different, it seems that they deliberately dress up in order to make themselves look less noble.

After she left, the small restaurant only had the light coming in from the window, the slowly rotating ceiling fan, the mottled tree shade outside the window, the music played at low volume, and the cat sleeping on one of the chairs.

Brother Zhang picked up the book again and started to read again. The weather at noon was so hot that even the cicadas stopped singing. From time to time in Chang'an Alley, there was the cry of someone's child, and then there was only silence and peace. Brightness unique to summer noon.

I don’t know how long I’ve been reading the book. Brother Zhang picked up the bookmark and clipped it on that page, then took out a coin from the box, walked to the antique jukebox that just arrived in the store yesterday, and dropped a coin. Coins, and then the music was selected on the monitor.

This is a small toy sent by Niu Niu, but it is really attractive. You only need to spend one yuan to hear the songs with the sound of old records. It can be said that it is very compatible with this small restaurant. Full.

And when melodious music with a sense of age was floating in the room, the welcome bell at the door made a clear and pleasant sound, and then a girl with a round face looked in. When she saw the little girl When Brother Zhang was standing there, he immediately narrowed his eyes happily and reached out to greet him.

"How did you gain so much weight?"

Brother Zhang looked up and down at Bai Mengjie. She had disappeared for almost a year, but unexpectedly, she changed from a delicate melon-seeded face to a round face. According to visual estimation, she was at least twenty catties fatter. Now she can say little One hundred and two.

"It's confinement at home, either eating or sleeping."

Bai Mengjie sighed and said, "No, something happened at home, my parents flew back to Canada, and I'm free again."

Brother Zhang came to the counter, opened the refrigerator to check around, and then asked, "What do you want to eat?"

“Crispy bread with lemon and grapefruit salad and extra olives. Add a grilled sausage.”

Brother Xiao Zhang nodded, and the only sound in the room was the sound of kitchen knives chopping vegetables, and the wonderful music brought by the antique gramophone.

Suddenly, brother Zhang raised his head and glanced at Bai Mengjie: "Where's the catfish essence?"

"I..." Bai Mengjie propped her chin with one hand and sighed, "I came this time to find him..."

Brother Zhang: "???"

"It's like this." Bai Mengjie sighed again: "He was by my side all the time, and... Actually, I think he's a little bit fatter and uglier, but everything else is pretty good, so I thought about... Try it again, or just agree. But just when I was about to agree to him, he suddenly came one day and gave me a gold coin, and then told me that our fate is over, and then he left."

As Bai Mengjie said, she put the gold coin in front of Little Brother Zhang. Little Brother Zhang picked it up and took a look. He felt that the gold coin was heavy, at least five hundred grams, and it had very delicate patterns on it. Moreover, there are obvious traces of aura on it, indicating that this thing must not be a mortal thing.

"and then?"

"Then there was no more after that. I couldn't find him." Bai Mengjie propped her head up and looked at Rhubarb who was dozing not far away: "He just disappeared out of thin air. Now that I think about it, I'm actually used to him arriving Everywhere follows me, and I get used to seeing him when I turn around. Even my parents like him very much."

Xiao Zhang lowered his head to cook but didn't talk to him. He just served all the food to Bai Mengjie and continued to study the jukebox. Bai Mengjie was eating in the back and suddenly raised his head and asked, "Brother , help me find him."

"No."

"Can you help me out?"

Brother Zhang was just playing on the jukebox and didn't say a word, but Bai Mengjie knew his temper and would not agree to anything that he refused, so she kept her mouth shut no matter how wronged she was. Is this person alive? Brother Zhang didn't help, so she turned her eyes to Rhubarb next to her.

She finished eating in two or three bites: "I'm full."

After she finished speaking, she scanned the QR code, picked up Rhubarb and ran out. Brother Zhang looked back at her back and shook his head silently.

After Bai Mengjie carried Rhubarb out, she came to a dark corner and shook Rhubarb desperately until she woke up. When the fat cat was about to throw a tantrum and beat someone up, Bai Mengjie held up a finger : "The most advanced canned fish in one year, pure tuna meat imported from Northern Europe."

"Deal!" Rhubarb didn't even ask her what she wanted to do, and the paws that were about to scratch her turned into high fives.

After speaking, it broke free from Bai Mengjie's hand, and started strolling back and forth on the edge of the flower bed: "But if you are willing to pay such a high price, there must be some shady secret. Let me say it first, I won't do things that hurt the world, and even if I don't Come on, there must be no less canned food, or I will make you dream of tuna every day for the rest of your life."

"Oh, I see. I just want you to help find someone."

Da Huang squatted next to her and asked with a surprised face: "Looking for someone, why didn't you go find that dead dog inside? The dead dog is stronger than me."

"I dare not...so I'm looking for you."

Rhubarb was silent for a long time, although he had a bad premonition in his heart, he still jumped forward, and when he landed, he had already turned into the appearance of that handsome guy: "Let me tell you first, this is not what I am good at, no matter whether it is canned or not, it must not be less." .”

"Know it!"

"Tell me, who to look for."

Bai Mengjie told her everything about this year, and then Da Huang tsk-tsk: "I don't recommend you to look for it."

"Why……"

"Because..." Rhubarb thought for a while: "Forget it, it's good to let you give up. Since it is the river god of Nanhe, let's go to Nanhe."

"Are you going now?"

"Of course not, wait until night."

Although there is still some time before night, Bai Mengjie dare not go back, so she can only wander here aimlessly. Rhubarb is also an insatiable person. I can eat twenty small octopus balls in one afternoon. The stomach is dripping round and you can watch the grilled squid on the side of the road unable to walk.

After finally staying up at night, Da Huang and Bai Mengjie came to the South River. There were many people fishing at night, and many people were walking on the bank. Bai Mengjie and Bai Mengjie were also strolling by the river.

In fact, Bai Mengjie had a somewhat bad feeling in her heart, but there was an old saying that no one would shed tears when the coffin was missing, so she still wanted to know the final result.

Rhubarb just walked like this, and then saw a place with no people, it simply sat on it, changed from a person to a cat with a bang, and looked at the quiet Nanhe without saying a word.

At this time, Bai Mengjie asked: "What's the matter, why are you suddenly quiet?"

Da Huang turned his head to look at Bai Mengjie, and then said softly: "Do you know what a monster means when it tells you that fate is dead?"

"do not know……"

"Hehe..." Rhubarb laughed dryly, and then let out a long breath: "Let me ask you, have you done it many times over the past year?"

Bai Mengjie laughed sarcastically: "It's okay...there's no danger at all."

"Be specific."

So Bai Mengjie told Da Huang all the bad things she had done in the past year. She was headstrong, fearless, and a little girl at heart, so she would play extreme sports, and would also climb out of the window of the house after being discovered by her parents.

She did a lot of deadly things, but every time she made a mistake, the River God would accurately appear by her side to help her out of the crisis. After that, she became even more unscrupulous, learning rock climbing, climbing stairs without protection, and diving.

There must have been [-] or [-] dangerous situations, big or small, but every time they were saved by the river god.

And until some time ago...he left, without the River God, Bai Mengjie found that she was becoming timid, as if a part of herself was lost along with her.

"I am." Rhubarb suddenly said in a long and deep tone: "I was a god as early as 5000 years ago. I have read countless stories."

When Da Huang said this, he paused for a moment, then turned his head and smiled at Bai Mengjie: "Don't resist when fate comes, and don't pursue when fate ends. This is the best way for people and demons to get along."

"But……"

"But?"

Rhubarb laughed: "Go and buy a bag of sausages."

"Do you still want to eat?"

"If you are told to buy it, go buy it, buy more, and ask for more meat."

Bai Mengjie rarely saw Rhubarb so serious, so he hurriedly went to the small supermarket on the street and bought a lot of meat products. When Rhubarb saw what she bought, he didn't say much, but pointed in the direction of Nanhe: "Throw it little by little."

"Haha, I thought what were you going to do, make a nest?"

Rhubarb didn't answer either, just quietly watching Bai Mengjie throw sausages, meat pies and other things into the river. When almost everything was thrown away and only the last sausage was left, the calm Nanhe suddenly flooded. There was a ripple, and then a huge catfish jumped out of the water, swallowed what she had thrown away in one gulp, then flipped over like a dolphin and disappeared into the water.

"It's him!!!"

Bai Mengjie came to the river quickly: "Come out! Where are you going? Come out!"

But apart from the empty echo and the gurgling sound of drinking water, there was no other response. Bai Mengjie bent down, picked up a stone and threw it out: "Come out!"

At this time, Da Huang jumped down, came to her side, squatted there and said: "Stop shouting, he has lost his sanity, and now he is just a big fish."

Bai Mengjie was taken aback for a moment, and said with surprise on her face, "Impossible, I remember him being super powerful."

"No matter how powerful you are, I can't stand your ruin." Da Huang swished and jumped onto the nearby tree a few times: "Every time you die, he is protecting you, but do you know why he can appear anytime and anywhere? ?”

Bai Mengjie thumped in her heart: "I...don't know."

"Well, you definitely don't know. The protection of the soul is the most unworthy protection in the demon world. Don't you hate him? If you hate him, he will protect you by not appearing in front of you, and every time you To die is to help you resolve the crisis by consuming the power of his soul. Now that the power he has accumulated for hundreds of years is exhausted, your relationship will also be exhausted."

After Da Huang finished speaking, he walked back silently: "I really want to see you again, and wait for reincarnation."

After speaking, Rhubarb slowly accelerated, and then turned into a gust of wind and disappeared by the South River, while Bai Mengjie stood quietly by the river, staring blankly for a long time, then suddenly shook her head vigorously: "You must be lying."

After she finished speaking, she picked up a lot of stones and began to throw them into the water, and shouted loudly: "Come out! Don't be joking! Come out!"

But even if he was hoarse in the end, he could only get the quiet river surface and the ripples wrinkled by the night wind, and there was no other movement.

Bai Mengjie cried loudly by the river, crying extremely wantonly.

At this time, a big fish slowly swam up in front of her, raised its head out of the water and looked at her quietly for a while, then turned around and disappeared into the sparkling river again.It never appeared again after that, even though Bai Mengjie was reported to the police that she might jump off the building and was taken away by the police uncle.

Brother Xiao Zhang received the call, went to the office himself and brought Bai Mengjie out. Sitting in his backseat, Bai Mengjie felt as if her energy had been sucked dry. She was so dry that she even had the strength to speak All gone.

Brother Xiao Zhang didn't say anything to her, because she has now tasted the bitter wine she brewed by herself, and sometimes the pain of being teased by her fate is more useful than the dogma of 1 people.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I didn't know that would happen."

Bai Mengjie spoke in a weak mosquito-fly voice, but Brother Zhang just smiled but didn't talk to him, he just pointed to the supper shop by the side of the road: "Do you eat boiled fish?"

"Brother..." Bai Mengjie slapped Brother Zhang, dumbfounded, "Stop laughing at me..."

Brother Zhang then said: "Whether it's with a human or a demon, don't try to practice the fate of meeting, it will really dissipate. The real dissipation is not that you are not by your side, but that you don't know where to find it."
