The park near the company is usually crowded in the afternoon. There are aunts dancing in the park square, mothers pushing their children to play in the park, and occasionally some students with drawing boards. All in all, the whole park is very lively.
It's just that the weather is too hot today, and there are not many people in the park. Lu Qingjiu and Bai Yuehu went to the old tree and sat down on the flower bed next to the old tree.
The scorching sunlight penetrated the lush branches and leaves of the old tree, creating mottled light and shadow on the ground. Lu Qingjiu reached out and touched the trunk of the old tree, calling out the name of his friend.
However, the old tree never responded. When Lu Qingjiu was a little anxious, Bai Yuehu stood up and said that he would go to another place first and give up time and space to Lu Qingjiu.
Lu Qingjiu looked at a loss, not understanding why Yuehu did this, Bai Yuehu explained, "It may have sensed my breath and didn't dare to speak."
Lu Qingjiu: "Huh?" He didn't think of this at all.
"It's okay, you guys talk." Bai Yuehu said, "I'll wait for you at the gate of the park."
With that he turned around and left.
After Bai Yuehu left, about five or six minutes later, the voice of the old tree really sounded behind Lu Qingjiu, but there was some trembling in this voice: "Jiu'er, you, are you all right?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "I'm fine."
The old tree said: "Why did you come back with the head dragon, such a terrifying creature..."
Lu Qingjiu said that not only did I come back with the dragon, but I also fell in love with the dragon. Of course, he didn't dare to stimulate the old tree, he just explained that Bai Yuehu is not the same as the ordinary dragon. did something to hurt him.
However, the old tree was noncommittal to Lu Qingjiu's statement, but kept saying that dragons are very dangerous creatures, and from the perspective of memory inheritance, human beings who are friends with dragons will not end well.
Lu Qingjiu just listened with a smile, and Lao Shu also tasted some kind of determination from his silence. After a long sigh, he stopped talking about this topic and started talking about other things.
One year, for a longevity like Lao Shu, it is just a snap of the fingers, but unlike the previous years, Lao Shu also has a partner to accompany him, and it seems that life has become more interesting, not like before. boring. Lu Qingjiu was a little worried about Lao Shu and Wu Xiao at first, but now that they seem to be getting along well, he is relieved.
Speaking of Wu Xiao, Lao Shu seems to have opened the conversation box and said that he is a knife-mouthed tofu-hearted man. Although it sounds unpleasant, he is actually very considerate and spends a lot of time chatting with himself. Having such a partner , I am very happy. But the fly in the ointment is that after Wu Xiao can hear him speak, he can also hear some other non-human creatures speak, and even see them occasionally. This situation will add a lot of trouble to Wu Xiao.
Lu Qingjiu listened to the old tree ramble quietly, and felt as if he had returned to the most difficult time in those few years. At that time, he had just joined the company and was not familiar with other colleagues, but he met the old man by accident. Shu, Lao Shu especially likes to talk, telling Lu Qingjiu to bring an umbrella in rainy days and put on clothes in cold days to help Lu Qingjiu get through the worst years.
At this moment, the old problem of the old tree has happened again, and after talking for a long time, I realized that I seem to be talking too much, and I am a little embarrassed: "Oh, you didn't remind me, I said this for almost an hour. ."
Lu Qingjiu smiled: "It's alright, tell me, I'd love to hear it."
The old tree whispered: "No, don't let the dragon wait."
Lu Qingjiu said, "It's alright." He finally came back, I believe that Bai Yuehu can also understand his occasional willfulness.
The old tree said, "You really don't plan to come back?"
"I won't come back." Lu Qingjiu said with certainty, "But I come to visit the grave every year, and we can see each other once a year."
The old tree sighed regretfully.
Lu Qingjiu glanced at his phone, and now it was almost the dinner time that Zhu Miaomiao had agreed to. He got up and planned to say goodbye to Lao Shu, saying that he would come over to chat with Lao Shu after eating.
The old tree murmured for a while, as if he had something to say.
"Is there anything you want to tell me?" Lu Qingjiu asked, "Tell me, I'm listening."
The old tree said: "It's..."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Huh?"
The old tree said, "Do you still remember the horoscope I gave to your parents?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Naturally I remember." It just so happened that if Lao Shu hadn't calculated a hexagram for his parents, he wouldn't have gone back to Shuifu Village, and he wouldn't have known Bai Yuehu.
The old tree said: "Do you... think this hexagram is accurate?"
"Quite accurate." Lu Qingjiu said, "My parents did not die in an accident."
The old tree was silent for a moment, but his voice was a little low. He said, "Actually, a few days before you came back, I also gave you a calculation."
Lu Qingjiu said, "How is it?"
The old tree said, "It's not very good."
Lu Qingjiu sighed, "Very bad?"
The old tree said: "I don't understand very well..." He babbled, "The hexagram says that you should stay away from the water, but it also says that the vitality is in the water. Isn't this contradictory?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "What does the hexagram say?"
Laoshu read out the hexagram image: "When the inherent water in the mountain and poor land is exhausted, the village of willow and darkness will not be able to keep flowers tomorrow. If you don't enter the water, it will be unavoidable, and the landscape will not be restored." This hexagram is different from ordinary hexagrams, it is The verses calculated by the method unique to their clan, the hexagrams are hidden in the poems, this method usually consumes a lot of their vitality, so the old tree rarely calculates the divination. So far, it has only been counted three times, two for Lu Qingjiu and one for Wu Xiao.
After the previous hexagrams were calculated, it was over, but after this hexagram was calculated, the old tree felt fear, and he had a sense of crisis that he was almost discovered by spying on the heavens. And the old tree didn't understand why Lu Qingjiu was related to Tiandao, until he saw Bai Yuehu who came back with Lu Qingjiu, and then he understood the reason.
The dragon family was born to follow the way of heaven. To be precise, they are the race that maintains the way of heaven. Lu Qingjiu, who is related to the dragon, is also inextricably linked with the way of heaven, so this is probably the last time he fortune-telling for Lu Qingjiu. .
Lu Qingjiu recited his hexagram, and felt that there was an ominous atmosphere in it, but after reading it carefully, he felt a little confused. The preceding hexagrams seem to say that the road ahead is very difficult, but the last few sentences hint at the place of vitality.
Lu Qingjiu tasted it for a while, and said, "I know, I will be careful in the future."
"Yeah." The old tree muttered, "If you have a good temperament, you must be a good person and you will be rewarded, and nothing will happen."
Lu Qingjiu smiled and hummed.
When he saw that it was almost time, he said goodbye to the old tree and went to pick up Bai Yuehu at the gate of the park.
Bai Yuehu asked what they were talking about, and Lu Qingjiu told Bai Yuehu about Lao Shusuan's hexagram. Bai Yuehu frowned and fell into silence.
The two kept a strange atmosphere and walked downstairs to the company, and happened to meet Zhu Miaomiao who was going downstairs.
Zhu Miaomiao saw that neither of them said a word, and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter with you two, why don't you speak?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "It's alright, isn't this just asking you to treat me to something to eat?"
Zhu Miaomiao said, "Ha, don't come here, I've already thought about it. With Bai Yuehu here, we must go to the buffet."
Lu Qingjiu: "..." It seems quite reasonable.
Zhu Miaomiao rolled up her sleeves and said that she had completely inquired about the famous self-service restaurants in the city a few days ago. She chose one with the right price and good taste, and waited for them to come. Lu Qingjiu said she accepted the challenge.
This buffet is different from the Japanese food that Taifeng invited last time. It is a hot pot and barbecue, with a hot hot pot in the middle and a plate of barbecue next to it. The food here can be considered fresh, either cooked or raw, all of which are taken by yourself. After being seated, all kinds of food were quickly piled up in front of them, and many of the waiters passing by were stunned, probably because they were worried about their waste.
But soon, the doubtful eyes on the side turned into stunned, because the plates of food piled on the side began to decrease rapidly, Lu Qingjiu and Zhu Miaomiao were soon full, and they both began to feed Bai Yuehu, one person scalding hot pot , Barbecue by one person, Bai Yuehu is responsible for eating with chopsticks.
"My mother, Bai Yuehu's appetite is too much." Zhu Miaomiao was amazed, "Now that there are so many big stomach kings, I think it is also a way for him to eat and broadcast..." Bai Yuehu's appearance, plus With this huge appetite, no matter how you look at it, it is the new darling of the eating and broadcasting industry.
Lu Qingjiu smiled and said, "If you want to do food and broadcast, you must first find something to eat."
Zhu Miaomiao said, "Isn't this self-help?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "It's fine for one meal. You can't eat the self-service boss every day."
Zhu Miaomiao glanced at the way Bai Yuehu was eating and felt that it made sense. To be honest, she really doubted that Bai Yuehu would be blacklisted by the restaurant owner next time.
As there were more and more dishes next to Bai Yuehu, the eyes of the people around became more and more surprised. Some people even picked up their mobile phones to take pictures. Seeing that things were not good, Lu Qingjiu hurriedly called Bai Yuehu to leave, afraid that he would leave again. If you continue to eat, you will be surrounded by people in the restaurant, and it will be close to the closing time of nine o'clock.
When the three of them left, they seemed very guilty like the thief who stole something. They didn't even dare to look around, and left the restaurant quickly.
When they got outside, Lu Qingjiu asked Zhu Miaomiao if she wanted to eat a sweet cone for digestion, and Zhu Miaomiao happily agreed. Bai Yuehu was still a little unsure, Lu Qingjiu cheekily leaned over and touched his belly, but he still didn't feel any bulging, a few abdominal muscles were clearly shaped under the t-shirt, and didn't mean to soften at all.
Lu Qingjiu touched his stomach again, and felt a small lump in his stomach. He felt like vomiting when he pressed the key point a little, so he quickly put his hand away.
"Let's find a place to sit and relax, shall we?" Zhu Miaomiao suggested, "There are quite a few good new bars opened around here."
Lu Qingjiu said, "You still go to play often now?"
In the past, when there was a lot of pressure at work, Zhu Miaomiao liked to go to bars, drink and dance, and if she was lucky, she could meet a few cute chatting little brothers. Sometimes when she was drunk, Lu Qingjiu would help to take her home. Because of this, Lu Qingjiu would tell Zhu Miaomiao every time that she must pay attention to safety when letting her play alone.
"No." Zhu Miaomiao shook her head, "I'm too old, and I can't move anymore. Now I have to add wolfberry to a beer. By the way, I remember that the red dates and wolfberry beer in a bar is super delicious. Go?"
Lu Qingjiu thought that it was still early anyway, and he had nothing to do when he returned to the hotel, so he agreed.
The three of them walked towards the bar, Zhu Miaomiao nibbled on the cone and answered the phone, um ah, after a long time, he hung up the phone and said, "Mr. Wu knows you are here, and wants to come over for a drink, do you mind? ?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Wu Xiao?"
Zhu Miaomiao said, "Yes."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Well... that's fine." He also wanted to chat with Wu Xiao about his current situation. When chatting with Lao Shu in the afternoon, he learned from Lao Shu that Wu Xiao was not in a good state recently. I was disturbed by nightmares, because the old tree couldn't leave the park, so I didn't find out the reason for a while, and I was quite worried. Lu Qingjiu thought that Bai Yuehu was here anyway, why not let Bai Yuehu help Wu Xiao to see, maybe he could find the reason.
Zhu Miaomiao talked about Wu Xiao, saying that since Lu Qingjiu left, his temper has improved a lot, he has become more friendly, and the atmosphere in the team has improved a lot.
Lu Qingjiu thought to himself that this might be the reason why people feel refreshed on happy occasions...
Walking into the bar, Zhu Miaomiao ordered drinks and snacks. This time, she chose a quiet bar. The atmosphere was quite quiet. A singer with a guitar sat in the center of the stage and sang a few songs that no one had heard before. Lu Qingjiu drank the wolfberry red jujube beer that Zhu Miaomiao said, but he didn't expect the taste to be much better than he imagined, and he always felt warm in his mouth.
Zhu Miaomiao was eating potato chips and said, "Wu Xiao is here."
Lu Qingjiu followed Zhu Miaomiao's line of sight, and sure enough, he saw Wu Xiao. He changed into a formal suit and wore a white shirt and jeans. As soon as he entered the bar, his tall figure attracted the attention of many people. Of course, they are here. The best looking is Bai Yuehu, although all Bai Yuehu's attention is on the fruit plate in front of him.
"Long time no see." Wu Xiao sat down beside Lu Qingjiu and greeted warmly.
"Long time no see Mr. Wu." Lu Qingjiu smiled.
Wu Xiao frowned: "Don't make fun of me, whoever is still your president after you resigned, call me Wu Xiao."
Lu Qingjiu responded with a smile.
I don't know if it's because of his own psychological effect, or if the lights here are too dim. After Lu Qingjiu looked at Wu Xiao, he felt that his face was a little unsightly. Said: "Why, haven't you had a good rest recently, why do you look so tired."
Wu Xiao pinched the corners of his eyes and said helplessly, "Yeah, I haven't had a good rest recently." He said and glanced at Zhu Miaomiao.
Lu Qingjiu understood what Wu Xiao meant, and said, "She knows it all, just say it directly." Wu Xiao probably worried that Zhu Miaomiao didn't know about those non-human things, so he gave Lu Qingjiu a look.
Wu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, he raised his hand to unbutton his shirt, and sat down on the sofa without maintaining an upright sitting posture: "I can't sleep lately, and I always hear some noise in my ears. Talk about it."
Lu Qingjiu: "Nah?"
"Yeah." Wu Xiao said, "Let's say it's a human voice, but I can't hear what I'm talking about, and I'm going to be mentally weakened."
Lu Qingjiu said, "What exactly is the trick?"
Wu Hao said: "I can't say it well either, it's like talking against my ear anyway."
Lu Qingjiu ate the apple that Bai Yuehu fed to his mouth: "When does this sound usually come out?"
Wu Xiao said, "Before I go to bed, I'm fine on weekdays, but as soon as I sleep..." He rubbed his head irritably, "I also asked Laoshu, and he said he couldn't figure it out."
Being able to hear the content of non-human speech is good and bad for him. The advantage is that he can communicate with the old tree unimpeded. The disadvantage is that he will be forced to hear a lot of unwanted voices, and sometimes he will get into trouble The thing to mess with.
Lu Qingjiu said, "Is this sound only in your home, or when you sleep elsewhere?"
Wu Xiao said, "All of them, but it will be louder when I'm at home." His expression was helpless mixed with pleading, obviously taking Lu Qingjiu as a savior, "Sake, you must help me, this voice is no different. If I can't handle it, I'm going to be schizophrenic."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Yuehu, do you have any idea?"
Bai Yuehu was still struggling with the fruit bowl, and after hearing Lu Qingjiu's question, he reluctantly put down the toothpick in his hand and looked at Wu Xiao.
Wu Xiao's back was chilled by Bai Yuehu's indifferent gaze. It was the first time he saw Bai Yuehu. As soon as he sat down, he noticed the unusual aura on Bai Yuehu's body. He was still thinking about it. Do you want to say hello to Bai Yuehu, but seeing that Lu Qingjiu didn't want to introduce it, he simply gave up. At this time, Bai Yuehu was staring at him with bad eyes, and he actually had a sense of crisis that was thorn in his back.
"Ah... I forgot to introduce it." Lu Qingjiu said, "This is my boyfriend, Bai Yuehu."
Wu Xiao was stunned. He seemed to be taken aback by Lu Qingjiu's straightforward introduction. He was quiet for a while, and then whispered, "Are you gay?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "It should be."
Wu Xiao: "Then before you..."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Only when I met him did I realize that men can do it too."
Bai Yuehu stared at Wu Xiao coldly and said, "What's the problem?"
Wu Xiao hurriedly shook his head to indicate that there was no problem at all. He also saw that he had to help Bai Yuehu in this matter, not to mention that Bai Yuehu was a man. Even if Bai Yuehu was a grass on the side of the road, he had to express two things. People are really good...
Lu Qingjiu smiled and told Bai Yuehu not to scare Wu Xiao, and Bai Yuehu withdrew his eyes.
Wu Xiao felt that his back was wet, and he didn't know what was going on with him. He was obviously used to seeing many big scenes, but he was stunned by the look of the person in front of him. As if the survival instinct engraved in his bones is telling him that he must not move, if he moves, his head will be bitten off...
"I can't see why." Bai Yuehu said, "His aura is messy." He raised his eyelids lazily, "Go where you shouldn't be."
Wu Xiao laughed awkwardly.
Lu Qingjiu hurriedly asked Wu Xiao where he had gone. Wu Xiao hesitated a few words. Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, he had to confess, saying that after he could understand non-human conversations, he found a very interesting place. Time will open a market, and the non-humans will sell a lot of gadgets in the market. After he found out, he was worried that the old tree would not let him go, so he concealed the matter and went there a few times secretly. There was no accident in the first few times, but after he went back last month, he started to hear it in his ears. There was a strange sound, and he didn't dare to talk to Laoshu, so he could only hold on to it. He originally planned to find a time to come to Shuifu Village to ask Lu Qingjiu, but he found out that Lu Qingjiu would come back in August, so he didn't. past.
After Lu Qingjiu and Zhu Miaomiao heard it, they both showed the expression that you would really die.
Zhu Miaomiao said even more rudely: "Mr. Wu, I didn't see it. You are such a calm person that you still have such a childlike innocence?"
Wu Xiao coughed dryly, with a very embarrassed expression, and said, "Isn't this curious..."
Zhu Miaomiao: "But you can't take your life to be curious."
Wu Xiao said, "Miaomiao..."
Zhu Miaomiao: "Huh?"
Wu Xiao said, "You asked me about the cleansing seaweed before, and I bought it from that market."
Zhu Miaomiao: "..." She was silent for half a minute, then whispered, "Mr. Wu, next time you bring me to see if you miss it?"
Wu Xiao: "Huh."
Lu Qingjiu couldn't listen to it any longer, saying that the two of you are almost enough, what kind of cleansing seaweed can be exchanged with one's life
Zhu Miaomiao is still beeping in a low voice, saying that the cleansing seaweed is very useful. After one use, all blackheads are gone. When paired with the honey from Lu Qingjiu's house, it is simply a beauty artifact. The sisters and sisters in the company are all rushing to get it. , unfortunately only a small jar...
Lu Qingjiu could hear the melancholy in her tone, and he couldn't help laughing.
However, Wu Xiao was excited, and introduced several interesting small objects, such as the hugely comfortable cushion to sit on, the sachet that can make you dream after smelling it, the apple that can never be eaten... Lu Qingjiu He clearly noticed that when he introduced the unfinished apples, the eyes of Bai Yuehu who was sitting next to him lit up very clearly, and a little star named Expectation began to flash inside.
Lu Qingjiu: "...It's almost done. Are you here to sell Amway, or to solve the problem?"
Wu Xiao quickly shut up and said that he was here to solve the problem.
"Otherwise, let's go to your house to see those gadgets?" Zhu Miaomiao was already gearing up, "Didn't you say that the situation at home is the worst? The source must be at home!"
Wu Xiao: "...Go?" He looked at Bai Yuehu and Lu Qingjiu.
Bai Yuehu didn't speak, but Lu Qingjiu already knew what his fox spirit was thinking at this time, and there was a bit of doting helplessness in his tone: "Okay, let's go have a look."
Zhu Miaomiao: "Yeah!"
Wu Xiao: "Yeah!"
Bai Yuehu was not reserved, but the shining eyes had already come out for his mouth.
So the four of them settled the bill and went out to get into Lu Qingjiu's minivan. Wu Xiao sat in the back seat and casually asked when Lu Qingjiu bought this car. It was quite new.
Lu Qingjiu bluntly said that this car was not bought, but an animal.
"What changed?" Zhu Miaomiao excitedly said, "Is it a horse?" Just like the white dragon horse drawn in the comics.
Lu Qingjiu said, "No."
"What is that?" Zhu Miaomiao asked.
Lu Qingjiu said, "It's a slug."
Zhu Miaomiao and Wu Xiao were stunned, as if digesting the name slug.
Afraid they didn't understand, Lu Qingjiu explained it kindly, "The common name is slug."
The next moment, Zhu Miaomiao's sharp scream sounded in the car: "Ah, shut up, stop talking, I don't want to listen!!! I don't want to listen!!!"
