I have a weird dynasty

Chapter 442 Gift (asking for monthly ticket)

New Year's Day.

"Sangsang!"

Jiang Zao saw Sangque at the door of the coffee shop on the first floor of the shopping mall. He ran over excitedly and jumped onto Sangque's back, just like he did in school before.

No matter how long they haven't seen each other or been in touch, the friendship between Sang Que and Jiang Zao will not change.

"Where have you been all this time? I missed you so much!"

Sang Que pulled Jiang Zao off his back and said, "I'm going to do something big."

Jiang Zao rolled his eyes and said, "You fooled me again."

Sang Que smiled helplessly, "Where's Xu Yichao? You can choose whatever movie you want to watch or what you want to eat. I'll pay for it."

"Then you can expect a heavy bleeding today!" Jiang Zao said viciously.

The two sat down in the cafe and chatted for a while. Most of the time, Jiang Zao was talking about the hardships of senior year in high school and the ways to find joy in hardship at school.

When Sang Que was in school, he always felt that he was not free and that studying was tiring. Later, after experiencing the Gui Dynasty and now being counted on and expected by everyone, with such a heavy responsibility, he realized that going to school was the easiest thing.

This kind of relaxation is spiritual relaxation. You don’t have to worry about your livelihood or be responsible for anyone.

After chatting for twenty minutes, Xu Yichao finally came. Sang Que glanced behind him from a distance and saw that the paper girl was still there, and her body was more real than before. Before, only the upper body appeared, but now even the lower body appeared.

As Xu Yichao approached, the skin on the back of Sang Que's hand cracked and curled up, and the edges had a paper-like texture.

Sang Que rubbed the back of her hand calmly. The paper-making craftsman she was controlling had a desire to devour Xu Yichao's paper figurine of the little girl.

"Sangque, long time no see."

Xu Yichao walked over and sat down. The hardship of senior year made him look tired. There were some dark circles under his eyes, and overall he did not look as healthy as before.

Being bound to a ghost, it is inevitable that physical problems will occur, and this is also Xu Yichao's own choice.

Sang Que handed the coffee she had bought in advance to Xu Yichao, "What have you been busy with recently? Did you not listen to Zheng Xuan's instructions?"

Xu Yichao was stunned for a moment, "You can see this?"

Zheng Xuan once warned Xu Yichao not to get involved in any supernatural events, so that he could live longer. However, Sang Que noticed that the paper girl on him had become stronger, which meant that Xu Yichao ignored Zheng Xuan's words. Not only did he get involved in supernatural events, but he also let his paper girl devour other ghosts.

Xu Yichao scratched his face in embarrassment, "I didn't do anything, I just helped others."

Jiang Zao suddenly remembered something and shouted, "I know, no wonder there are always people in suits looking for you outside the school recently, and they call you Master Xu, you are acting like a charlatan!"

"Shh, shh, shh! Don't shout, don't shout!" Xu Yichao stood up and tried to cover Jiang Zao's mouth.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Sang Que leaned back in his chair with a strong aura. Jiang Zao pulled the chair towards Sang Que with a look that said, "You're going to get into trouble, kid."

Xu Yichao sat down to be interrogated and could only confess, "I was helping Grandma Xu in the beginning. She couldn't just stand by and watch others come to her for help. In the past, Grandma Xu would ask for help from Teacher Zheng Xuan Zheng or the man called Zheng Wujun, but during this period, Grandma Xu said that she couldn't contact either of them, so she thought of me and took me to see people a few times."

Xu Yichao scratched his head. "I don't know how this matter got spread, and then people came to me one after another, and then..."

Sang Que understood that she was also responsible for this. After the incident of the Gui Dynasty was reported, the focus of the research institute shifted, and all the members of the mobile team, which was already understaffed, were transferred to Lei Shi Mountain. Naturally, there was no one to deal with such "small things" that happened in the country.

Xu Yichao continued, "Actually, Grandma Xu also found it strange. She said that since the beginning of the year, there have been more and more strange things. They are not big, but the number is far more than before." Jiang Zao said casually, "Could it be that the spiritual energy is about to revive?"

Xu Yichao said, "I don't think it's the revival of spiritual energy, it's the revival of the spirit! We are all people who have experienced it, there really are... ghosts in this world!"

Sang Que asked tentatively, "If the spirits really come back to life and ghosts are everywhere, what will you do?"

Jiang Zao immediately expressed his opinion, "Level up and fight monsters to become the protagonist, defend the country and guard the four directions."

Sang Que was amused, "I didn't realize you had such ambition."

"Then you are underestimating me. What about you, Xu Yichao?"

Xu Yichao thought for a moment and said, "A year ago, I might have felt like you, thinking I was the protagonist of the world. But I've seen a lot of things recently, and I suddenly feel that people still know nothing, so it's better to live a simple life."

As Xu Yichao spoke, his eyes looked intentionally or unintentionally towards the bathroom in the distance, his whole body tense.

Sang Que glanced sideways and found that the light in the bathroom was flashing. There was an old woman there, a ghost.

People come and go, and when they pass by the old woman, they feel inexplicably cold, but they don't know why.

Sang Que could probably imagine what Xu Yichao had experienced. It was just like when he had just learned that there were ghosts in the world. He could clearly see them, but he had to pretend not to see them, otherwise he would bring danger to himself. His spirit was always extremely tense.

After thinking for a moment, Sang Que took Jiang Zao's bag, took out a pen and paper from it, wrote down a name and phone number, and put them in front of the two of them.

"If you want to explore the dark side of the world, call this number after you think it through, but remember, you can't go back once you call. If you encounter problems that are difficult to understand and solve, you can also call this number for help. That's all I can tell you."

Jiang Zao and Xu Yichao have been through many things with Sang Que. In fact, with just one word from Sang Que, she could bring the two of them into the team. Even if they couldn't follow her to the Gui Dynasty, they could still stay in the research institute.

But Sang Que cannot selfishly make choices for them. Everything in the supernatural realm is accompanied by danger, just like Xu Yichao now, who has begun to back down after gaining a certain understanding.

They must make their own choice in this matter.

Jiang Zao wanted to ask more questions, but Sang Que interrupted her and took Jiang Zao to the cinema to buy tickets.

Xu Yichao wanted to go to the toilet, but he didn't dare go to the toilet on the first floor. He had to wait until he got to the cinema.

Playing in the mall is the same old routine, buying milk tea, watching a movie, then going to the video game arcade, and finally taking a walk around the various small commodity shops.

Sang Que also took the time to deal with the ghost in the toilet on the first floor.

Jiang Zao's revengeful spending led Sang Que to buy her many things to comfort her wounded little heart.

The three of them played until dark. Tomorrow is the second day of the Chinese New Year. Jiang Zao's parents in the big city will bring her sister back and the family will be reunited. Xu Yichao will also follow his parents back to his grandmother's house. It will be difficult to get together again after that.

When Sang Que came, he prepared gifts for the two of them. The gifts for Xu Yichao were two paper soldiers made by a paper-folding craftsman. They were three-dimensional and the size of a palm. Xu Yichao only needed to smear blood on them to activate the paper soldiers at night to protect him.

What was given to Jiang Zao was a puppet made by puppeteer Chu Mowei. It was the size of a baby, had a ghost face, and wore a bright red official uniform. It was somewhat similar to Zhong Kui. The puppet could be placed at home or carried around to scare away wandering ghosts.

When Sang Que returned to the community, he did not rush back to his own home, but knocked on the door next door first.

The man who opened the door was handsome. He was nervous for a moment after seeing Sang Que clearly. Sang Que smiled and said, "We are moving tomorrow. Please help us again. Thank you for taking care of my mother during this time. Thank you."

Sang Que bowed, and the man knew he couldn't pretend anymore, so he could only smile awkwardly, "It's my duty, it's my duty."

I have something to do this afternoon, see you tomorrow~
