Above the gray fog

"I can't help." Before Huang Li could continue to rejoice, Lin Shan immediately rejected it.

Huang Li's expression darkened, "I'm sorry, my request is too much."

"Xiao Li is our new employee, let's help her." Jiu Qi advised from the side.

"Can't help." Lin Shan still said the same thing.

"I think Xiao Li is a pretty good kid. Since you don't want to help, then I'll go and help her. If she falls into the hands of the Ren Zong, I'm just a fox and I'm afraid I won't have much to gain." Jiu The seventh move is to pull the little carp away.

"I really can't help." Lin Shan felt a little headache and explained, "After being pulled by Huang Ying, the strength of the human race has soared. If nothing else, we enter the human sect and there is no way to avoid being discovered by the other side."

"It would be dangerous for even a fox like you to go in, so what's the use of bringing an ordinary old man like me with you."

Jiuqi seemed to be waiting for Lin Shan's words:

"But isn't that your home? Who can't go back to their own home?"

Lin Shan was silent, and after a while he said, "There is no such thing as a forever home."

"Boss, isn't this a shop where anything can be achieved? Then I will make a deal with you now to exchange for the things I have hidden in the Renzong? Is that okay?"

Xiao Li looked at Lin Shan with big eyes. For her, emotional currency seemed to be easily spent.

"No." Lin Shan refused without even thinking, "The store's rules mean that employees cannot trade."

"Okay." Xiao Li responded dejectedly.

"He's just like that. Don't mind, Xiao Li, come here and I'll tell you what the employees need to do." Facing Lin Shan, who was unable to get in, Jiu Qi could only shake his head helplessly and called Xiao Li to walk in with him. Stack of bookshelves.

Jiuqi said earnestly:

"The only thing employees need to do is read here."

At night.

Lin Shan fell asleep as usual.

Xiao Li made a bunk and slept in the other corner.

It's not yet dawn, and the little carp is busy.

Fetch water for Lin Shan to wash up.

Hot breakfast is ready.

Taking advantage of the meal time, Xiaoli asked Jiuqi for advice on how to entertain guests.

Xiao Li did all the washing up after eating.

After cleaning up, Xiao Li took the rag to wipe the bookshelf below.

Near noon, Xiaoli asked Lin Shan and Jiuqi what they wanted to eat, and she went out to buy them.

For Xiao Li's safety, Jiu Qi went out with Xiao Li, leaving Lin Shan alone in the shop.

When I came back, except for some dishes, the bookshelf was almost full with large and small packages.

Xiao Li sat on the ground and started sorting, while Jiu Qi looked on with a smile.

"Boss, these are the clothes I bought for you. Can you see if they fit you? It's such a cold day and I think you're still wearing such thin clothes, so I thought of buying you two sets."

"Also, many places in the store are empty. I bought some decorations to decorate them. The environment will be good and my mood will be better."

"There is also this guide board. With this thing, guests can read it by themselves when they come in. We don't need to explain it too much."

"There is also this pile, which contains some building materials. I plan to build a bathroom in that corner and a kitchen there, and use the Lingwen technology of Sansheng Mountain. This will make it much more convenient in the future."

"Also, I want to adjust the position of these bookshelves. If they are spread out like this, they take up too much space. In fact, they can be centralized. The free space can be used to build two bedrooms, so that I don't have to lie on the floor every day."

After Xiao Li reported her preparations, she looked at Lin Shan expectantly, as if waiting for Lin Shan's praise.

"Well, just follow your ideas. If you have any questions, just ask Jiuqi." Lin Shan just nodded slightly.

Xiao Li was a little disappointed, but soon cheered up and started to find Jiu Qi to discuss her layout.

Day after day, the infrastructure in the store is gradually improved, and the environment has also changed a lot.

There are two more bedrooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

Lin Shan, who has become an ordinary person, has to go to the toilet. In the past, he had to ask Jiuqi to take him into the Zhulong Ring to solve the problem. Now that there is a toilet in the store, it is a lot more convenient, not to mention. They said you can take a shower inside.

Lin Shan never thought that one day he would be delighted with these infrastructures for ordinary people.

Going to the toilet is necessary, but taking a bath is not necessary, because Jiuqi can clean him with spirituality at any time, and the same goes for his clothes.

The arrival of Xiao Li not only liberated Jiu Qi, but also made his life more comfortable.

Such a peaceful life lasted for more than a month. During this period, the communication equipment given by Huang Liu glowed brightly. It was an invitation from Huang Liu, who wanted to get together again next month.

Lin Shan asked Jiuqi to reply and agreed.

On this day, Lin Shan looked at the mortal books that Xiao Li had found for him as usual.

Jiuqi came in a hurry.

"Have you seen the little carp?"

"Run away secretly." Lin Shan responded calmly, as if he had known it for a long time.

"Why don't you stop? It would be dangerous if you are caught by the Renzong." Jiuqi was a little unhappy, "Didn't you see Xiaoli's performance during this period? She took care of you better than I did, and she will also Our temporary home is in perfect order. If she leaves, we will have to go back to our old days.”

"A Sequence 9 extraordinary person does these things without the need for praise." Lin Shan replied lightly, "She took the initiative to do these things, most likely to attract our attention and obtain our help."

Jiuqi sighed and said slowly:

"You are looking at this matter from a very high angle. You are not wrong, but your approach is wrong. You attach a strong purpose to other people's good qualities. You missed a key point, which is human nature."

Jiu Qi stretched out his finger and gently tapped Lin Shan's heart. "You are not lacking in humanity at this moment. Why is it like this?"

"You are imitating, imitating your former self."

"Don't rush to deny it. Ask yourself carefully whether you are worried about the little girl you have only known for two months, and whether you want to go out and look for her."

"If it were you in the past, you would never have such an idea."

Lin Shan was silent.

"You are free anyway, why don't you go out with me to look for her?" Seeing that Lin Shan was silent, Jiu Qi suggested from the side.

"She has returned to the Human Clan." Lin Shan said calmly, "She should have been captured by now."

Jiu Qi sighed and said helplessly:

"If we don't help her, she will go by herself. It seems that this thing is very important to her."

Then he looked at Lin Shan, "What do you think? Shouldn't we rescue her?"

"No." Lin Shan replied indifferently.

"Why? Why are you so shy about the human race? What happened? Can you tell me?" Jiu Qi was puzzled. Since the last time a virgin was born, Lin Shan never mentioned the human race again, and even deliberately avoided talking about the human race every time.

"The pioneers of the human race are just tools for someone to continue the human bloodline." Lin Shan closed the book in his hand and looked at Jiu Qi, "You have been with me for so long, you should have understood that the pioneers of the human race disappeared one by one, lost themselves, and became someone else."

"Have you never thought about why this happened?"
