I, Guhuo Bird, am not an umbrella demon, please don’t disturb me

Bai Qingyu also thought, why not keep it forever? Anyway, there is such a noodle shop and she will not starve to death. But after all, this is her own idea. Everyone and every family's situation is different.

When her father said that Bai Qingyu could help her regain her sight and speak again, the girl named Cai'er was very excited, but unfortunately she couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Under Bai Qingyu's demonic power, Cai'er's eyes gradually began to regain their brightness, and the injury to her throat gradually began to heal.

Will such a charming girl be sold to a brothel after she recovers?

Besides, what does she have to do with the demon book?

Volume 4: Journey to the Demon Book: Chapter [-] Complex Relationship

Cai'er was born blind, and the throat problem appeared later, as if it was caused by eating something by mistake. Apart from making a whining sound, Cai'er was unable to speak a complete sentence. Under the nourishment of the demon power, her throat The injuries began to improve gradually, and the problem with the eyes was the most troublesome, but there was still a way to solve it.

Looking at the girl's eyes that gradually became brighter, Bai Qingyu waved his hand in front of her eyes.

"I......"

As soon as Cai'er made a sound, she quickly covered her neck. While she was amazed at the world full of colors in front of her, she tried to speak. The sound from her throat was no longer a hoarse whine but returned to her original state. 's sweet voice.

"Thank you...thank you."

The world in front of her eyes seemed to be shrouded in a layer of bubbles. Cai'er blinked her eyes several times in succession. This layer of hazy bubbles gradually disappeared, and Bai Qingyu's slightly resembling face and body appeared in her sight.

This kind of high myopia would only make others feel dizzy, but for Cai'er, being able to see things was like opening a door to a new world, and she was curious about everything.

She had fantasized about what the outside world looked like countless times. She had imagined the beautiful flowers and blue sky that people talked about in her mind, but the world in front of her was completely different from what she had imagined. .

His vision gradually became clearer, and the eyes looking at Bai Qingyu were full of surprise.

It turns out that people can be so beautiful.

Turning her head, she saw a honest man looking at her with worry on his face, and her intuition told her that this was her father.

"father......"

"Cai'er!" The noodle shop owner cried with joy and stepped forward to hug his daughter who had returned to normal.

Such a harmonious and warm scene made everyone feel happy for the father and daughter. But while they were happy, they couldn't help but think of what Bai Qingyu said yesterday. Didn't he say that things would change? But isn't everything good now? My daughter has cured her eyes. , the father no longer needs to worry about his daughter, and there is no need to sell his daughter to a brothel.

My daughter can help with the work in the store, and the family of three can live a wonderful life relying on this small store. They live in poverty, but they are not so desperate, and everything will be fine.

Xiaoyao came forward and tugged on Bai Qingyu's sleeve.

This girl felt that Bai Qingyu deliberately gave them a surprise, and they could see such a beautiful scene in the world, so she felt that her mother had really good intentions, and she was so touched.

Bai Qingyu remained silent. She didn't know how the situation would develop. She only knew that the final situation would definitely not be good. It seemed quite warm now. Let's wait for the development later. It would be hard for her to get involved. After all, she was a family member. housework.

White-gold light enveloped everyone, and Bai Qingyu's figure quietly disappeared into the yard.

When the parents came to their senses and wanted to thank Bai Qingyu, they turned around and found that Bai Qingyu and others had disappeared into the yard, as if they had never appeared before, and just left out of thin air.

·

"Sure enough, I said this to my mother. It's really wonderful. I can better understand what my mother said before. Life is full of ups and downs, not only bitterness, but also sweetness. After all the bitterness, the sweetness comes. That's it. .”

Xiaoyao held Bai Qingyu's hand and was in a very good mood. Her big eyes were full of smiles, "Mom, tell me, will their life get better and better in the future? Since the sister named Cai'er has already Now that you can see, you will be able to adapt to life quickly, right?"

At this point, Xiaoyao suddenly changed the subject, "I'm just afraid that those hateful monks will disturb their lives."

Yu Yijin sat sideways on Xiaoli's back. Just when he was about to say something in agreement, he saw that Bai Qingyu had no expression on his face. He was just listening to Xiaoyao's speech quietly without saying anything.

Based on her understanding of her aunt, if this was really what she told Xiaoyao, her aunt would have touched Xiaoyao's head and told her that the truth of the matter was indeed like this, and finally analyzed it.

Bai Qingyu didn't speak, but Zhentian spoke, "Xiaoyao, you are indeed right. There is more than just bitterness in the world, but this father and daughter may not necessarily live a good life. If you observe carefully If you do, you will find that their yard has begun to make some wedding arrangements, and the noodle shop owner has already bought back Cai'er's dowry."

"Eh?" Xiaoyao tilted her head, "What's wrong with getting married? If you can see things, you can live a good life even if you get married."

"No, Xiaoyao." Yu Weijin was awakened by the words, "Have you forgotten, the noodle shop owner said that his family has no money, and his small noodle shop can only barely make ends meet, so he must have borrowed money to buy such a large dowry. Yes, you have to pay back the borrowed money. If you can borrow so much money at once, you must pay a price, and you may have to double the money back."

"Ah? Why is this like this? Then should we go back and help them?" Xiaoyao was stunned.

"Xiaoyao, have you forgotten what my aunt demonstrated to us last time? Helping people can only be done when asked, and aunt has already done a lot."

The smile on Xiaoyao's face completely disappeared, and she hesitated for a long time not knowing what to say.

"Mother, what will happen to them in the end?"

"I don't know either, but it's definitely not what you think."

The little girl's face fell. She knew that her aunt was actually capable of helping, but as Yu Weijin said, her aunt had already done enough and there was no reason to continue to help.

What Yu Weijin said is not necessarily true. Maybe the father and daughter will save money and pay back the money. If the aunt continues to help, she can give the money directly. Then the money will be paid. Can it really solve the problem?

Maybe the other party will also suspect that you have an unknown source of money. Otherwise, where did the little noodle shop owner get so much money?

When the time comes, they will directly detain the money and drive the person out, or threaten him to be escorted to the government office, accusing him of stealing money and robbing him.

The noodle shop owner can't say that the money was given by an expert, right?

If she really said that, should the aunt show up? If she didn't show up, they would definitely think that the noodle shop owner was lying. If she showed up, the aunt's identity would be exposed, and the impact on the small noodle shop would be even more unknown.

Xiaoyao was silent for a long time without speaking.

Just now she thought the father and daughter were so warm and beautiful.

Sure enough, good things are short-lived, especially for people outside.

In the next few days, Bai Qingyu cooked by herself in the small rented yard and did not go to the noodle shop again. What happened next had nothing to do with her. Nothing she did affected the final outcome of the family at all.

Cai'er may be someone on the demon book, but just like Qing Ji back then, she had no sense at all before she transformed. Only after she has completely undergone transformation can she be able to see through her identity.

In the past few days, Xiaoyao seemed a little depressed, and this incident had a great impact on her.

For Cai'er, her eyes were finally cured, and it was the first time she saw her father after she was born. For the noodle shop owner, it was probably the first time she saw her daughter showing such a bright smile.I finally had some hope in my life, but something like this happened.

Knowing that their final outcome would not be too good but unable to do anything, everything was doomed unless my aunt was willing to help.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Bai Qingyu finally decided to take the boys to a noodle shop.

On the way to the noodle shop, Xiaoyao held Bai Qingyu's hand tightly with worried eyes, fearing that what she had seen in the past was that the noodle shop had closed forever, and the noodle shop owner and Cai'er had completely disappeared.

Feeling uneasy, I finally arrived at the door of the noodle shop.

Xiaoyao's heart sank when she saw that it was dark inside, and then she saw Bai Qingyu hesitate before pushing the door open and walking in.

A gust of cold wind blew through the door, biting to the bone. Xiaoyao shrank her neck and saw that there was actually a light in the restaurant, but it was not an oil lamp hanging on the wall but a candle on the table.

After all, the light that the candle can bring is limited. In the endless darkness, it can only bring a small piece of light. In this dim and slightly white light, Xiaoyao saw the noodle shop owner sitting on the chair with his head lowered. .

Seeing that her boss was still there, she let out a long sigh of relief.

Looking around, the noodle shop is particularly deserted today.

He didn't care, Xiaoyao wanted to go over and ask his boss how Cai'er was doing.

Bai Qingyu took Xiaoyao's hand and looked at the noodle shop owner sitting on the bench.

"You're dead, why don't you leave?"

As soon as he said this, Xiaoyao's eyes widened. He looked at the noodle shop owner and then at Bai Qingyu. He rubbed his eyes and took a closer look. The noodle shop owner was indeed translucent. The candlelight was too dim. It's clearly a burning will-o'-the-wisp!

"Mother!"

Xiaoyao reacted and jumped into Bai Qingyu's arms, "He, he, he, is he a ghost?"

Holding Xiaoyao in his arms, Bai Qingyu continued: "Where is your daughter?"

The noodle shop owner raised his head, his face as pale as paper.

"Cai'er... She, she was sold by that group of people. Those people said that with my small shop, I would never be able to pay them back in my lifetime. They also said that the only valuable thing here is me. Daughter Cai'er."

"Last night, they broke into my yard and kidnapped Cai'er. I held them and wouldn't let them go. I begged them to give me some more time, but they didn't listen, so I wouldn't let them go. ,Then......"

"And they killed you?"

The noodle shop owner lowered his head and didn't answer.

"Who are those people?"

"Longma Chamber of Commerce."

"You committed suicide. I don't understand why you contacted this group of people and the brothel since you wanted to marry your daughter. Your younger daughter is a daughter, isn't your older daughter? No, I should say, you His youngest son?"

Volume 5: Journey to the Demon Book: Chapter [-] The Hand of Xiaoxiu

The noodle shop owner heard Bai Qingyu's words. He raised his head, his eyes seemed a little panicked. Just like ten days ago, he chose to kneel down on the ground and kowtow vigorously. Because he was in the ghost state, he couldn't kowtow to break the bleeding, but Black smoke billowed from the knock.

The noodle shop owner was getting weaker and weaker, and he kept muttering something, probably saying that he was sorry for Cai'er and that he was not a human being.

"What's the use of kowtowing to me? The matter has come to this, and it's of no use if you continue to stay here."

Bai Qingyu waved his hand, and the demonic power wrapped the man's body, and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight. Before leaving, they saw the boss disappear from sight with a deep sigh, and the candles on the table were extinguished. , and the room fell into darkness again.

Xiaoyao blinked her eyes. Her little brain obviously couldn't bear the influx of so much information into her mind. She was confused and puzzled. What did the noodle shop owner do? Wasn't he killed? Why did she think her aunt had killed her? Does he also feel like a bad guy?

"Auntie, what's wrong? What happened?"

"The explanation of the matter is a bit complicated. To put it simply, Cai'er did not go there voluntarily as we thought. At least it was not what she wanted to do, but her father wanted to sell her."

Holding Xiaoyao in his arms, he pushed the door open and walked out. On the quiet street, Bai Qingyu said, "This boss found the brothel and wanted to sell Cai'er, but he didn't expect that Cai'er's eyes would be cured, but the money It has been borrowed and he has to pay it back."

"While borrowing money from the Chamber of Commerce to buy a dowry, he sold his daughter out. It sounds very contradictory."

"If I guessed correctly, these dowries are used to defraud the bride price. When two people get married, the woman will give the man a dowry and the man will be a matchmaker."

"So after Cai'er's eyes and throat are cured, the value will be even greater. Now it will be much easier to find a matchmaker and ask the man for money."

"Then, he kept the money from selling his daughter, the money given by the man, and the dowry. He took his younger son to live in other states and counties. But he didn't expect that Cai'er's eyes would be treated. After the good news spreads, it will be known to the people in the chamber of commerce."

"Cai'er has a good-looking appearance, her eyesight has been restored, and she is not very old. She can sell it for a pretty good price in a brothel. The Chamber of Commerce only cares about money. As they say, a small noodle shop will never be able to pay for it in its lifetime. Take their money.”

"It would be better to say that their target from the beginning was Cai'er."

"Then the current situation happened. I died and Cai'er was sold."

Bai Qingyu has always told her kids that this is how things are in the world, that all living beings are suffering and that the world is full of tragedies. However, she did not expect the development of this matter. She only thought of everything just now. At first, she just thought that the noodle shop owner would die in the end. , Cai'er's fate is unknown.

Yu Yijin sat sideways on Xiaoli's back, feeling very depressed, "Why is this happening? You can obviously live a normal life. Cai'er has bad eyesight, but you can also do something, and you can also help in the noodle shop. ah."

In Yu Yijin's view, many things don't have to be like this.

Why do you have to make money that doesn’t belong to you?

Even if he succeeds in the end, is selling his daughter and taking his son to live a life of hiding in Tibet what he wants? Will he not condemn himself in his heart? Will he not dream of Cai'er's tragic ending when he sleeps at night? .

Hiding around will eventually be exposed. Even if you are not exposed, your money will be spent one day. What should you do then?

Yu Yijin couldn't figure out why this happened, he just felt it was very sad.

It is clear that everything will gradually get better.

I feel quite powerless. How can I help him in this situation? I can't just give him money directly to help him pay off his debts?

Since he can think like this one day, he will think like this again in the future. After paying off the debt, he might sell his daughter to try to live a good life.Just like my aunt once said, you can satisfy a person's short-term desires for a while, but later on, endless desires are a hole that can never be filled.

Unless the noodle shop owner can change his mind and understand that plainness is the truth.

Sighing deeply, Yu Weijin decided to change this heartbreaking topic, "Auntie, where are we going now?"

"Go and rescue Cai'er. The tragedy has already happened. Let Cai'er live peacefully with her brother in the future. This can be regarded as a good ending to this not-so-good story."

After Bai Qingyu finished speaking, Xiaoyao's eyes lit up. He immediately gave Bai Qingyu a smack on his face and hugged Bai Qingyu's neck. He couldn't help but smile on his face, "Mom, you are indeed the best. Yes, take care of Sister Cai'er." Rescue her and let her live a normal life, she is so pitiful."

"Of course I will go." Bai Qingyu rubbed the little girl's head.

Xiaoyao's character actually took the initiative to kiss her today, which shows that this matter has a profound impact on her and she cares about it very much.

"Then after mother takes Cai'er out, will Xiaoyao want to give mother a bigger kiss?"

It would be unreasonable not to tease Xiaoyao like this.

Sure enough, the initial excitement passed. After hearing Bai Qingyu's words, Xiaoyao blushed, her eyes were evasive but she still hummed softly. She hugged Bai Qingyu tightly with her little hands and buried her face in Bai Qingyu's body.

Everyone smiled when they saw Xiaoyao's shy appearance.

Sometimes, Xiaoyao is still very cute.

After teasing Xiaoyao for a while, Bai Qingyu put her down and asked Zhentian to take her back with the other kids. He could just wait for news about her at home and then set off for the largest brothel in the city.

Of course you cannot take children with you to a place like a brothel, as you may spoil the child.

Brothels and brothels are actually two different places. In Daling, a brothel is a higher-end existence than a brothel. Of course, there are also brothel services. Most of the girls there are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. To put it simply, going to a brothel is not It must be that kind of thing, or maybe it's just to listen to the girl playing and dancing, and you can do something else with some money afterwards, and the brothel is just for fun.

The place where Cai'er was sold was the brothel. She didn't know how to play chess, calligraphy or painting, but it was enough that she was pretty and good-looking.
