Forget it, let me go to the [mall]...

She waited until it was getting slightly brighter before she reluctantly put the manuscript in her hand back to its place. Then, she floated to the bedside, looked down at Xia Zhi, who was sleeping peacefully, and snorted slightly.

This gentle hum seemed to contain particularly complicated emotions.

Xia Zhi didn't understand either.

Watching her pass through the wall and return to the Hall of Purity next door, Xia Zhi continued to visit the [Mall] for another hour before finally waking up.

At this time, it was already bright outside the window.

Chapter 46 What a foodie

There was the sound of the door opening from outside, followed by the sound of gentle footsteps going downstairs.

Miss Zhuzi has also gotten up.

Xia Zhi sat up from the bed and rubbed his face with his hands, feeling a little lack of energy.

After all, I didn't sleep for most of the night.

Xia Zhi got out of bed, walked to the table, picked up the manuscript that had been put back in its place, and checked it.

Alas, after reading so frequently, not a single piece of paper was wrinkled.

Oh, woman.

Xia Zhi picked up the manuscript again, brought it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, but did not smell any strange smell.

The female ghost didn't seem to be incorporeal, so she could easily pass through the wall, but she could clearly touch and pick up real objects, which was really weird.

Xia Zhi recalled her skillful movements when flipping through his manuscripts, and knew that it was definitely not the first time she had been here last night.

Maybe it came the night before, maybe it came the night before, or maybe it came two nights ago.

In this case, why was it only last night that he was suddenly awakened from his sleep by her?

Thinking of this, Xia Zhi couldn't help but look at the ordinary incense burner on the table.

If there were any similarities and differences in the past few days, it was that he fell asleep smelling the "soothing incense" the night before and the night before, but he didn't last night.

[Soothing incense] has a calming effect on people. Maybe her arrival before actually gave him a feeling of palpitations. Just because the incense has such a calming effect, this strange feeling was instantly eliminated. It fell, so he didn't wake up from his sleep.

If you think about it carefully, this possibility seems quite high.

Xia Zhi sighed helplessly, put away the manuscript in his hand, and took out the [Soothing Incense] that he had made last night but had not used yet, and the black iron quality dagger from the inventory.

Putting the incense on the table, the sharp edge of the dagger passed across it, easily dividing it into four equal parts.

Keep one piece and put the other three pieces into the inventory.

Xia Zhi looked at their descriptions on the panel again.

The item name has an additional "incomplete" prefix, and the original recycling price has also disappeared, becoming "non-recyclable".

Sure enough, there is no way to take advantage of it.

Xia Zhi shook his head, opened the window to get some air, changed out of his pajamas, opened the door and went downstairs.

After washing up, Xia Zhi took Zhuzi outside to have breakfast.

On the way, Zhuzi looked at him and asked in a low voice, "Boss, did you not sleep well last night?"

Xia Zhi waved his hand and said, "Well...it's okay. I'll just sleep a little longer during the day. What do you want to eat this morning?"

Zhuzi still had no idea: "I can do anything, boss."

"Then let's go eat fishmeal."

"Okay, boss, I know there is a fish meal that is very delicious! The price is not expensive! It's just a bit far, over there at the pier."

"It's okay, let's walk over slowly."

"Ok!"

After walking through half of the city, they arrived at the vibrant dock market, where the two of them sat down at a table.

Zhu Zi skillfully ordered the waiter: "Two bowls of the signature fish meal."

The waiter asked: "Would you like some fish offal?"

Zhuzi nodded, then turned around and asked: "Boss, do you want to add fish offal? Mainly fish roe, washed very clean, not fishy at all!"

Xia Zhi thought for a while: "You can try it."

Zhuzi then said: "Then add fish offal to both bowls."

Xia Zhi said: "Please put more spicy food in my bowl."

The waiter noted: "Okay, two guests, please wait a moment."

Not long after, two steaming bowls of fish meal were served.

The soup is thick white in color and overflowing with fragrance.

The taste was even better than the delicious bowl of fish meal that Xia Zhi had eaten at a certain stall before.

Especially the spoonful of hot sauce is full of flavor.

After Xia Zhi finished eating, he couldn't help but sweat broke out on his forehead, and his haggard spirit was lifted a lot.

Zhuzi smiled and asked: "Boss, is the taste of this store okay?"

Xia Zhi nodded: "Great."

After walking out of the store, Zhuzi whispered again: "Actually, there is a better fish meal shop in my hometown. Boss, if you go to Daozhu in the future, you must try it."

Xia Zhi glanced at her and nodded seriously: "Okay."

I’m sure, this girl is a foodie!

After slowly walking back through half of the city, Zhuzi saw a familiar petite figure standing in front of his store from a distance.

"Boss, it's Qiqi!"

"Is she here?"

"Yes, she is waiting in front of our store."

"Then let's go quickly."

Back at the door of the store, Qiqi was still carrying the bamboo basket filled with fresh herbs that had just been picked.

"Good morning, Qiqi."

"Good morning, Miss Qiqi."

"Good morning, Miss Zhuzi, Mr. Xia Zhi."

Qiqi raised her pale little face, still expressionless, and replied softly.

Xia Zhi keenly noticed that Qiqi's tone was more continuous when she spoke today. She seemed to be able to only say two or three words at a time yesterday.

Zhuzi opened the shop door, Qiqi walked to the wall, took off the bamboo basket on his back, and then came to the table with the incense burner from yesterday.

The incense burner was not on the table at this time.

Qiqi turned her head and looked at Xia Zhi, with some doubts and longing in her eyes: "Where is the incense..."

Xia Zhi took the incense burner down from upstairs in the morning and just put it on the table. He took it over and took out the quarter piece of incense.

Qiqi opened her eyes slightly and looked at the small and beautiful crystal in his hand.

Is this incense?

Xia Zhi put it into the incense burner and lit it.

Wisps of smoke drifted out from the furnace eye, carrying a strange and reassuring power.

Qiqi stood on tiptoe, raised her face, and breathed in the breath greedily.

Xia Zhi couldn't help but take a deep breath, feeling that his energy, which was exhausted from staying up late, had improved a lot.

Considering that Qiqi didn't like drinking hot tea, Xia Zhi didn't let Zhuzi make tea, but directly prepared three cups of colorful red juice.

Then everyone sat at the table and chatted while drinking juice.

"When did Miss Qiqi arrive?"

"It's been a while."

"We went to the pier to eat fishmeal today. It's a bit far, but I kept you waiting for a long time."

"It's ok."

"Have you had breakfast, Miss Qiqi?"

"No."

"hungry?"

"I'm not hungry now."

Qiqi looked at the incense burner and whispered.

"This incense is delicious."

"good to eat?"

Xia Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered the story about ghosts and gods eating incense in the human world. Do zombies also eat incense?

Originally, he thought Qiqi liked incense so much because its effect could please ghosts and gods, but now it seems that it not only pleases, but also fills the stomach?

If so, could it be that the female ghost who appeared last night was also greedy for the taste of incense?

Xia Zhi couldn't help but fell into deep thought for a while.

Chapter 47 Qiqi’s memory fragments

The elegant fragrance slowly filled the entire store, and the morning sunlight shone in from the window, caressing it into strands of shape, making it look extremely gentle.

Qiqi closed her eyes slightly, smelling the incense and sipping the juice in the cup, with a slightly satisfied look on her face.

The scene in front of him reminded Xia Zhi of those people who enjoy drinking with a plate of side dishes in their free time.

"Does Miss Qiqi usually eat incense?"

"No food."

"Why? There are many shops selling incense in the city, and the prices are not expensive."

"Those aromas are not delicious."

Qiqi opened her eyes, looked at the incense burner and said softly.

"I just like this."

Xia Zhi is not a ghost, so she cannot taste the "taste" she mentioned from the incense, but it seems that the difference is in quality.

Regardless of whether the incense sold outside is of good or bad workmanship, even if it contains the subtle wishes of ordinary people, it is only of ordinary quality.

Even though the incense in his shop is only of the lowest quality, it is already of extraordinary quality.

With the blessing of [Blazing Incense Burner], its effect is straightforwardly written as "pleasant to ghosts and gods". To a certain extent, this item can be considered to have a hint of "delighting ghosts and gods" properties.

And with the blessing of [Soothing Pill], it has an added effect of "stabilizing the mind", and has a natural attraction for the mentally ill Qiqi.

Putting these two reasons together, it is no wonder that she is so greedy for the smell of incense.

So, this is probably the first time she has actually eaten something since she became a zombie in a long time, right?

Xia Zhi looked at Qiqi's expressionless pale face, and then glanced at Zhu Zi who was drinking juice and looking happy, and suddenly felt a little sad.

He lowered his head and drank the juice in his glass silently.

After a moment, he looked at the bamboo basket filled with fresh herbs by the wall.

"Miss Qiqi, did you go to the mountains to collect medicine again last night?"

"Ah."

"Didn't you just go there the night before yesterday? You should rest in the medicine house for two days, right?"

"Yeah, but I'm not tired."
