Soul Ferry: My master is Uncle Jiu

Chapter 65 Side Effects

There was a sound of cars outside, and Zhao Li's big jeep appeared.

Official Zhao's face was full of joy and he walked in cheerfully humming an unknown tune.

"Li Zhao, do you still know how to show up?"

Xia Dongqing in the store couldn't help but get excited when she saw Official Zhao and walked out.

"We haven't seen each other for a few days. Do you miss me?"

Seeing that Li Zhao was still the same, Xia Dongqing said helplessly: "Can you stop being so shameless?"

"I have something to ask you."

"Is this your attitude when asking other people questions?" Zhao Li passed Xia Dongqing, turned and leaned on the counter, and said with a smile: "I want a bottle of Budweiser, plus an oden, and a few more pieces of radish."

Xia Dongqing's face twitched, but when he thought of poor Xiaoxue, he took out a can of Budweiser from the refrigerator with a dark face and handed it to Officer Zhao.

"Budweiser, here you go."

Zhao Li did not take it, but suddenly shook his hand and sighed: "Oh, my hand has been a little weak recently."

The look on his nose and face made Xia Dongqing grit his teeth, but I couldn't bear it.

With a pop, he pulled the tab and handed it over again.

Zhao Li took it, took a sip, and clicked his tongue: "Hey, why do you feel that today's Budweiser tastes particularly delicious? Dongqing, do you want to try it?"

"I'm not thirsty."

Xia Dongqing felt bad, so she returned to the oden counter and started cooking oden.

Upon seeing this, Officer Zhao shrugged, took another sip and said, "What a pity, such a delicious beer."

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I can't help teasing you at all, it's boring." Zhao Li saw the dark-faced Xia Dongqing, smiled, walked to the counter and sat down, then put his feet on the counter to show his comfortable expression.

"Tell me your problem."

"Let me guess, it's about Bai Xiaoxue, right?"

Seeing that Zhao Li finally became serious, Xia Dongqing's expression became much better. He said, "An Yan told me that Xiaoxue has medicine on her body. What is medicine?"

"To put it simply, you humans will get sick, and so will we. You know, even gods will grow old and senile. The things on Xiaoxue's body are the medicine to heal us."

"What you said is too general. Can you be more specific? An Yan said it's similar to Gu?"

"Just understand it this way. You won't understand it anyway."

Seeing that Official Zhao wanted to be lazy, Xia Dongqing used a death stare on him: "Say!"

"Okay, okay, I just said that." Zhao Li admired Xia Dongqing's persistence and continued: "It's like the different worlds divided in Buddhism. Medicine comes from a higher world, and it likes to use you humans as hosts. , and the person who becomes the host is our medicine."

"For thousands of years, they have followed the call of humans and entered the human body through the respiratory tract through pollen. The host must use his own blood to sign a symbiotic contract with them."

"So, it's because the medicine heard Bai Xiaoxue's call that it came to her, not because of me, understand? Do you understand?"

After talking a lot, Zhao Li took another big sip of beer.

Xia Dongqing was stunned and a little lost. He always thought it was Zhao Li who was up to something, but he didn't expect it to be Xiaoxue herself.

"Bai Xiaoxue, she is no longer the Bai Yueguang in your mind. You'd better give up as soon as possible." Zhao Li glanced at Xia Dongqing and reminded: "The food Yao likes is certain human emotions, such as greed and vanity. , jealousy, etc.”

"The more these emotions are, the better they grow, which is full of medicinal properties for us. When one host is gone, another host will be replaced. This has been the case for thousands of years."

Xia Dongqing was puzzled: "Aren't you the soul ferryman? Why didn't you tell her?"

"Why should I tell her? I am a soul ferryman. I am only responsible for sending people to the underworld. I am not the Virgin who saves the lost lambs in the Bible." Zhao Li rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"I work so hard that God doesn't give me a salary." "Besides, without her, where would I find medicine? Who would help me treat my illness?"

Xia Dongqing couldn't accept this approach, "You get the medicine through Xiaoxue, aren't you afraid of killing her?"

"It won't kill you, but I think there will be some minor side effects."

Zhao Li smiled and made little gestures with his hands.

"I think the side effects will appear soon."

day.

Xiaoxue came to work normally, but she didn't notice that her beautiful face gradually faded away from the moment the sun rose. Age spots appeared, and her hair started to turn white and rough from her temples.

After a colleague saw Bai Xiaoxue's appearance, he took a few steps back in fright, pointed at her face and said in horror: "Xiaoxue, you! What's wrong with your face?"

"My face?" Bai Xiaoxue, who was originally in a good mood, was stunned when she heard this. When she touched it with her hand, the rough feeling made her panic, and she quickly took out her small mirror to take a look.

The mirror seemed to be a mirror looking into a demon, reflecting the face that was as ugly as a demon, with a yellowish complexion and shocking age spots the size of copper coins.

"what!"

Bai Xiaoxue was so frightened that she screamed. With a shake of her hand, the mirror fell to the ground and shattered.

The movement here attracted the attention of others. Feeling more and more eyes falling on her face, Bai Xiaoxue covered her face and shouted: "Don't look! Don't look!"

She left in embarrassment, no longer as glorious as before.

When she got home and looked at herself in the mirror, she could tell that she was in her fifties or sixties.

Bai Xiaoxue touched the face with trembling hands and shed tears of regret. At this moment, she regretted extremely.

So, she immediately went upstairs to find the Fox Fairy to find out the reason.

Then she saw her boyfriend Zhang Yang packing his clothes and luggage. Xiaoxue returned to her old personality and shouted softly: "Zhang Yang!"

Zhang Yang, with the green grassland above his head, said without looking back: "I'll come back to get some clothes and leave right away."

When he looked back, he found an ugly woman standing in front of him. He was startled: "Who are you?"

The frightened look made Bai Xiaoxue cover her face subconsciously, not wanting her boyfriend to see her ugly appearance.

After a pause, Zhang Yang recognized that the person in front of him was actually his girlfriend, and said in disbelief: "How did you become like this? What did you do?"

Bai Xiaoxue subconsciously looked sideways at the ghost doll enshrined beside her.

Zhang Yang looked along and understood something in an instant. He pointed at the ghost doll and said angrily: "What is this? Ever since you worshiped it, you have become strange, as if you have become a different person."

"I, I don't know. Zhang Yang, hug me, I'm so scared!"

"Go away!" Bai Xiaoxue wanted to throw herself into the arms of her boyfriend Zhang Yang, but was pushed away by her boyfriend.

Bai Xiaoxue watched her heartless boyfriend pick up the suitcase and leave without looking back. She fell helplessly to the ground.

"That's right! Fox Fairy! Find Fox Fairy!"

Bai Xiaoxue regained her energy, quickly went to the computer, turned it on, and asked the Fox Fairy online.

"My face has become ugly. What's going on?"

Fox Fairy quickly replied, with only six big blood-red characters filling the screen.

"Don't regret it!"
