Maoshan female Taoist priest

Chapter 111 Cake
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die..." When Bai Xiaoxi thought about it now, his whole body became hot, and he wanted to slap himself hard twice, so that he could wake up quickly.

"Good birthday, how do you say you are immortal?" A warm and smiling voice came from inside the bookstore.

Bai Xiaoxi was taken aback for a moment, then raised his head to realize that it was Su Ze whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Are you back?" Bai Xiaoxi walked into the store and looked at Su Ze.

Su Ze smiled and nodded, "Well, I came back at noon, and I didn't see you."

Thinking of Han Nuo, Bai Xiaoxi's face became hot again, and he nodded, "Well, I went out with my friends."

Su Ze smiled and said, "Have you been there for your birthday? Is my birthday cake delivered too late?"

It was only then that Bai Xiaoxi realized that there was a beautiful round box on the table, not very big, but very delicate.

"You bought me a birthday cake?" Bai Xiaoxi was a little surprised.

Su Ze saw that Bai Xiaoxi didn't look like a fake, so he smiled, nodded and said, "Well, I made it myself, hasn't Xiaoxi eaten cake today?"

Bai Xiaoxi quickly ran to the table and sat down, shaking her head repeatedly, "No! I haven't eaten a birthday cake yet! Su Ze, did you personally make my birthday cake?"

Su Ze walked over with a smile, opened the box, pulled out a cake that was only two palms in size, put it in front of Bai Xiaoxi, and said, "Yeah, I thought you didn't come back today, and wondered if it was for nothing , but when I saw the clothes drying in the backyard, I thought to wait a little longer, but luckily I had time."

Bai Xiaoxi looked at the cake in front of him excitedly, and a sweet smell came to his nostrils.

"Can I eat it now?" Bai Xiaoxi raised his face and asked Su Ze.

Su Ze smiled and shook his head, "No, you have to make a wish first."

Bai Xiaoxi clasped her hands together, watching Su Ze light a candle and stick it on the small cake, then turned off the light and smiled at her, "Make a wish."

It was the first time for Bai Xiaoxi to have such a birthday experience, she was a little trembling with excitement, she quickly closed her eyes, mumbled a few words in her mind, then hurriedly opened her eyes and blew out the candles.

Su Ze clapped his hands aside.

The light came on again, and Su Ze walked to the table, only to see Bai Xiaoxi wiping his eyes with the back of his hand, stunned for a moment, and asked softly, "Why are you crying so well?"

Bai Xiaoxi smiled awkwardly, wiped away tears while laughing, and said, "It's the first time someone gave me a birthday cake, I'm so happy."

Su Ze smiled reassuringly, walked over to wipe away her tears, and said, "There will be some every year in the future, come on, let's cut the cake."

Bai Xiaoxi was a little surprised by Su Ze's intimate behavior, but she didn't have much resistance. She nodded, took the cake knife that Su Ze handed over, and divided the cake into two pieces, one for Su Ze and one for herself .

Su Ze smiled, sat next to Bai Xiaoxi, and started to eat the cake. Seeing Bai Xiaoxi smiling, Su Ze's heart gradually warmed up.

"Meow~"

At this time, there was another soft cat meowing in the store.

"By the way," Su Ze put down the fork and smiled, "I came back today and suddenly found a kitten, did you bring it back, Xiaoxi?"

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, bent down, and sure enough, he saw Fanfan sitting under the table, so he hugged him to the table, touched him, and said, "Well, it's a birthday present from a friend, called Fanfan."

Su Ze smiled, "Well, it's called Fanfan! But Fanfan doesn't seem to like me very much."

Bai Xiaoxi was puzzled, "Huh? What do you mean?"

Su Ze laughed again, and stretched out his fingers towards Fanfan, teasing him, "Fanfan, Fanfan, come~"

"Meow!"

Unexpectedly, Fanfan, who was lazy in the last second, suddenly burst into hair, and grinned at Su Ze to make a defensive look. Seeing Su Ze's fingers stretched out, he raised his little paw and wanted to scratch him.

"Fanfan," Bai Xiaoxi hurriedly held him down, "How can you be so naughty?!"

Su Ze smiled and retracted his fingers.

Bai Xiaoxi also felt a little strange, thought for a while, and said, "Maybe it's your aura, small animals are very sensitive to special auras."

Su Ze nodded, "Well, maybe so."

Bai Xiaoxi glanced at him again, and said a little more worriedly, "That... Su Ze, don't mind me either! I won't treat you like this."

Su Ze was stunned for a moment, then laughed, looked at Bai Xiaoxi and nodded, "Yeah."

Bai Xiaoxi felt that Su Ze's eyes made her unable to look directly at her, so she quickly turned her face away, dug out a piece of cake, put it on a paper plate, and placed it in front of Fanfan.Seeing that Su Ze was no longer approaching him, Fanfan relaxed, smelled the cake that Bai Xiaoxi handed over, and carefully licked it with his tongue.

Su Ze smiled, then lowered his head and continued to eat the cake, laughing while eating.

While eating the cake, Bai Xiaoxi told Su Ze what happened to Zhou Yuan's house this time. Of course, she didn't say anything about her elder brother, and she didn't hide it on purpose, but she just felt unable to say it.

Speaking of being drugged, Bai Xiaoxi said directly to Su Ze in a foolish manner, "I thought you were the one who saved me, but after thinking about it, it might be that I was drugged and confused and had hallucinations gone."

Su Ze smiled and said, "I was working in the store at the time, so it must not be me anymore. But why were you so careless that you were drugged? Does it matter now?"

Bai Xiaoxi scratched her hair a little ashamedly, "I was really careless, but it's okay, I'm fine now."

Su Ze stretched out his hand, took Bai Xiaoxi's hand, and said worriedly, "It's too dangerous for you to be so defenseless, you must be more careful next time, or you can take me with you."

Bai Xiaoxi quickly withdrew his hand, his face was a little hot, and he smiled awkwardly, "Yeah, I must be more careful next time."

Su Ze didn't seem to notice Bai Xiaoxi's embarrassment, but said in a gentle and concerned tone, "You must remember, otherwise I'm really worried."

Bai Xiaoxi stuffed a large piece of cake into his mouth, and while deliberately looking at Fanfan who had his face covered with cake, he blushed and nodded.

"By the way, Xiaoxi," Su Ze saw that Bai Xiaoxi was blushing almost to death, and worried that talking too much would make her feel disgusted, so he changed the subject, pointed outside the gate of Bai's Bookstore, and said, "Just now there has been There's a little guy standing outside."

Bai Xiaoxi was taken aback, and quickly swallowed the cake, but unexpectedly choked, so he looked out while beating his chest.

Su Ze smiled and handed her water.

Bai Xiaoxi took a big sip from the water glass before recovering, looked outside the door for a while, but didn't find the little guy Su Ze said, "I didn't see it! Is it a human or a ghost?"

Su Ze thought about it with a smile, and said, "It should be...a ghost."

Bai Xiaoxi's eyes widened, "What? You said there was a ghost standing outside the door for a long time, but I didn't notice it?!"

Seeing Bai Xiaoxi's disbelief, Su Ze smiled and said, "The aura is a bit strange. It took me a while to confirm it, and the main reason is that there is no malice. Aren't you more sensitive to ghosts with strong desires?"

Bai Xiaoxi was still a little hurt, and muttered, "Even if that ghost is a little transparent, it's still a ghost! I didn't realize it, I'm too careless!"

Su Ze laughed.

Bai Xiaoxi sat back at the table again, and said, "Stand by the door for a while, very few ghosts would dare to approach me or the bookstore, could it be that they are asking me for something?"

Su Ze nodded, "It's possible, I still remember his breath, do you want me to look for it for you?"

Bai Xiaoxi looked at him, "Huh? You know how to find ghosts?"

Su Ze smiled and said, "Well, the witchcraft manual you gave me last time contained such witchcraft, but I'm not very proficient in practicing it yet."

When Bai Xiaoxi heard this, he waved his hand, "I don't want it anymore. If you are not proficient in witchcraft, you can't use it without authorization, and I don't know if that ghost is very powerful. It would be bad if it hurt you instead."

Su Ze looked at Bai Xiaoxi, smiled slightly, and didn't insist anymore, "Well, then I'll help you after I get more proficient."

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, and said to himself, "Just wait and see, if you really need to find me, it will still appear."

Su Ze didn't speak, just smiled.

That night, Bai Xiaoxi fell asleep in the happiest mood since she grew up. In her sleep, she seemed to see her mother smiling and saying to herself——Happy birthday, baby girl.

Bai Xiaoxi shed tears in his dream, smiling while crying.

At the other end of the bookstore, Su Ze, who was lying on the bed, listened quietly to Bai Xiaoxi's non-stop sleep talk, and his heart also kept throbbing. (Digression: Xiaodeng suddenly found out why the mothers of the three protagonists are... This is really a coincidence, a coincidence!!! Kneeling... Xiaodeng loves her mother very much, long live the mothers of the world!)
The next day, Bai Xiaoxi received a package. Looking at the familiar handwriting on the cover of the package, Bai Xiaoxi pursed her lips, opened the package, and took out a box with a familiar smell inside.

Just as Su Ze came out of the bookshelf, he smelled an uncomfortable smell head-on, frowned, and asked, "Xiaoxi, what did you take?"

Bai Xiaoxi turned her head to see Su Ze, and hurriedly covered the box, "It's from my dad, stay away, the incense on this box is very strong, after I open the box, you can take it away again." come over."

Su Ze had no choice but to take another two steps back, seeing that Bai Xiaoxi opened the box, squashed the box and put it in his room, and then walked out again.

The things left on the table still smelled of exorcising incense, but it was already within the range that Su Ze could bear.

Bai Xiaoxi sat back at the table, saw that Fanfan was grabbing the table legs under the table, so he lifted him up and put him on his lap, while sorting out the things Bai Xiangbei had sent.

As usual, Bai Xiangbei still sent her a book, Bai Xiaoxi looked at the cover - "Maoshan Technique - Detaining the Three Souls", put the book down, and Bai Xiaoxi took out another envelope from the book.

Bai Xiaoxi looked at the letter in surprise, her father rarely wrote to herself.I opened the envelope and looked at the content. It turned out that I was telling myself what Maoshan techniques I should learn when I was 20 years old, what precautions, and the preparations I should do when I went back to inherit the Bai family. I also mentioned that I had a An old friend who also lives in City H. This old friend encountered some situations recently, so he asked Bai Xiaoxi to go and have a look if he could help.
