Chapter 72: Black umbrella

Views:

After a few laps of mahjong, it was almost time for lunch. Shaohao said that he had prepared the box and invited a few people to go.

Lu Qingjiu did not refuse because he was very interested in what Shaohao and the others ate on weekdays. However, Shaohao led them directly out of the bird park and returned to the human world. Then he greeted a few people to get into the car and drove to a stylish restaurant in the city center.

Lu Qingjiu was dumbfounded while sitting in the car: "Don't you eat at your house?"

Shaohao said, "I don't know how to cook, and I rarely open fire at home."

Lu Qingjiu was a little surprised: "Then you eat outside every day?" Although the food outside tasted good, it would be boring to eat every day.

Shaohao said, "I don't go out every day, most of the time. If it's too much trouble, I eat it with the birds."

Lu Qingjiu: "What does the bird eat?"

Shaohao smiled: "Eat everything." He said, and looked at Yin Xun with deep meaning, causing Yin Xun, who was sitting next to him, to shrink his neck involuntarily, wanting to reduce his sense of existence. Hao retracted his eyes and continued, "For example, ripe fruit, or some small mammals."

Lu Qingjiu: "Eat it raw?"

Shaohao nodded.

Lu Qingjiu sighed in his heart that this Emperor Bai was too hard-core.

A few people arrived at the entrance of the hotel, and Shaohao parked the car and led them in. He was obviously a frequent visitor here, and even the waiter at the gate greeted him first and called out Mr. Bai.

This place is called Wanniao Pavilion, and Lu Qingjiu has never been there, but I heard that it is a member-only store. Ordinary people can't eat it if they want to eat it, so it has to be introduced by an insider. Based on Shaohao's identity, Lu Qingjiu suspected that the owner of this shop was Shaohao himself.

The dish was ordered before, and after a few people sat down, they started serving it, but just as Shaohao sat down, his expression was a little wrong. Lu Qingjiu was about to ask a question when he saw him stand up and hurriedly said: "I'll go to the next one. The toilet." After saying that, he turned around and left, looking at the back that was rather embarrassed.

At first Lu Qingjiu thought that Shaohao was just solving his physical problems, but who knew that in the next hour, he would basically stand up again after sitting on the bench for two minutes, and his face became more and more blue. Back in the box. Lu Qingjiu looked at this scene inexplicably and felt a little familiar, so he cast his suspicious eyes on Yin Xun, who looked very guilty.

"What did you guys do just now?" Lu Qingjiu asked.

Yin Xun said, "No... I didn't do anything."

Lu Qingjiu: "Then why did he have diarrhea?"

Yin Xun pretended to be calm: "Maybe it's because he's weak."

If Lu Qingjiu believed it, he would be a ghost. He observed his friend's expression and determined that he was hiding something: "Tell me honestly, when you and Shaohao went out for a walk just now, you didn't cook dinner. Give him something to eat?" He was deeply impressed by Yin Xun's craftsmanship. Fortunately, the toilet in this place is a toilet, otherwise, if you do this, you will feel that your leg can basically be amputated.

"No." Yin Xun said, "Why should I cook for him when I have nothing to do?"

Lu Qingjiu: "Really not?"

Yin Xun said, "No." He put his eyes on the sumptuous dishes in front of him and swallowed.

Seeing that Yin Xun answered so firmly, Lu Qingjiu didn't ask any further questions. He obviously couldn't imagine that Yin Xun did not cook anything for Shaohao, he just cut a piece of himself and gave him a taste. Of course, with such a large piece, the effect is naturally very good. Shaohao may have to live in the toilet for a few days.

Shaohao lives in the toilet, but it does not affect their desire for food at all. I have to say that the taste of these dishes is worthy of the expensive price. All the dishes are very finely crafted. Each process is the best choice after careful polishing. Take the boiled cabbage in front of you as an example. The soup is clear and delicious. Although Lu Qingjiu knew the general method of this dish, but because it was too complicated, he never wanted to try it. This small bowl of clear soup base was made after at least eight or nine complicated processes and boiling.

Bai Yuehu and Yin Xun ate very happily, completely forgetting the host of the treat. Lu Qingjiu still had a little bit of conscience left, so he went to the toilet when he had almost eaten, and very thoughtfully asked Shaohao if he needed more paper to go in.

Shaohao squeezed out a thank you from his teeth.

"Did you eat something wrong?" Lu Qingjiu couldn't help but feel pity when he saw his condition, "Do you need me to buy some medicine for you?"

"No need." Shaohao said, "Ordinary medicines have no effect on me."

Lu Qingjiu: "Oh...then we're almost done eating, look..."

Shaohao: "... I have already bought the order."

Lu Qingjiu: "Great, thank you for your hospitality."

Shaohao: "..." He knew that he wanted to drag him for so long, why Lu Qingjiu suddenly came to ask about the situation, it turned out that he had almost eaten and was worried that he would not pay the bill. Sitting on the toilet, Shaohao took a deep breath and was about to stand up and go out, but as soon as he opened the door, he felt his stomach churn and was forced to sit back again. He put his hands on his knees in despair, carefully recalled what he had eaten today, and finally inexplicably remembered the soft touch of Yin Xun's fingers... Could it be...

Shaohao covered his face and let out a long sigh.

Sitting in front of the table, Yin Xun, who was eating with a round stomach, sneezed suddenly. He rubbed his nose and muttered if he had a cold.

"The mountain god still catches a cold?" Lu Qingjiu asked.

"That's not right," Yin Xun said. "To be honest, I don't think I'm different from ordinary people except that I can eat it."

Lu Qingjiu: "..." Put away your proud little expression, is it something to be proud of to be eaten? !

Although Shaohao was still trapped in the toilet and couldn't get out, he still treated them to such an expensive meal after all. The three of them summed up, then went to the toilet together to say goodbye to Shaohao.

"Mr. Bai, we're going back." Lu Qingjiu said, "Next time, come play more when you have time."

Shaohao's voice was a little muffled across the toilet door: "Okay."

Yin Xun whispered to Lu Qingjiu, "Welcome to play."

Shaohao: "I must come." These three words made him grit his teeth abruptly, making Yin Xun shrink his neck involuntarily.

The three of them had enough to eat and drink, and left with satisfaction. Then they took a taxi back to Shaohao's villa, and drove their own minivan back home. It's just that Shaohao's housekeeper was a little confused, obviously not understanding why the guest came back, but the host disappeared.

After seeing the beautiful Bird Garden and having a big meal, Lu Qingjiu was in a very good mood. After an afternoon nap, he got up from the bed and planned to make some noodles, steamed buns, steamed buns, and other things for dinner. But when checking the materials, Lu Qingjiu found that the shallots at home were used up.

Bai Yuehu was also taking a nap in the courtyard at the moment, Lu Qingjiu thought that the land was not far away anyway, so he didn't bother him, and planned to go to the field to pick it by himself.

Shallots are a common ingredient that can be used in any dish, so they are consumed quickly. Fortunately, they have grown a lot at home. When you want to eat, just take a pair of scissors and cut them. It is very fresh.

Walking on the road, Lu Qingjiu thought about transplanting the shallots into the yard like leeks in the future, it would be easier to pick.

The weather is still fine today, the sun is shining. This kind of weather is very comfortable weather for ordinary people, but it is not a good thing for farmers who rely on the sky for food. There is too little rain, the crops in the fields grow slowly, and they have to carry water for irrigation every day, otherwise will affect the yield.

It's been a few months since the beginning of spring, and it has only rained three or four times. If it wasn't for Bai Yuehu at home, I'm afraid Lu Qingjiu would have to worry about the vegetables in the field. The irrigation water they have here is drawn from a distant reservoir. If the water level of the reservoir is too low, they have to find another source of water. It’s just that there is a small stream in the area of Shuifu Village, and I don’t know how to get it. Lu Qingjiu had never cultivated the land by himself before, nor did he understand these things. It was not until he heard the sighs of the old Li family next door that he understood the importance of spring rain to farmers.

When Lu Qingjiu came back to his senses, he realized that he had thought too far. He had already walked to the ground and saw a row of lovely-looking little green onions.

This green onion is much more fragrant than the ones sold in the market, especially when it is used to make spring onion mixed with tofu. The tofu is also ordered at home. Put some salt, refreshing and delicious.

Lu Qingjiu took out scissors, bent down and cut a handful of shallots, picked out a ripe pumpkin, pulled out two broods of cabbage, and picked some bright red peppers, all of which were put into the bamboo basket that he was carrying. Start walking slowly back.

Every time he came to the field, Lu Qingjiu would be shocked by Bai Yuehu's talent for farming. These neat green vegetable seedlings were covered with red peppers and yellow pumpkins. They were neat and beautiful. At first glance, they looked like It's like a flowerbed.

Their pumpkins are a bit big, so Lu Qingjiu deliberately chose a small one. Such a pumpkin can be eaten twice. If there is time in the afternoon, he can also make some pumpkin pie stuffed with bean paste to satisfy his cravings.

Lu Qingjiu was walking forward, but noticed that there was a black object in the middle of the road. After a closer look, he realized that it was a black umbrella, lying quietly on the side of the road.

Whose umbrella? Lu Qingjiu stopped, the umbrella was right in front of him, and he could pick it up when he bent over. The umbrella looks very ordinary, it is the kind of black umbrella that can be bought in the market. Lu Qingjiu originally planned to pick it up and ask if someone in the village had lost it, but before he stretched out his hand, he noticed a detail on the umbrella.

This black umbrella is wet, and the surface of the umbrella is still stained with traces of rain. It has been almost a week without rain in the water house, so who would bring such a black umbrella out? Lu Qingjiu had a bad premonition. He thought of Yu Shi's concubine, so he slowly took a step back and avoided the strange-looking umbrella in front of him.

After walking a distance, Lu Qingjiu looked behind him, but saw that the umbrella was still obediently lying on the spot, as if there was no response, he was relieved, and was wondering if he was too much because he saw too many of these things. Sensitive, he saw the black umbrella slowly and slowly stand up from the ground, as if someone was supporting it, and then with a swipe, the black umbrella opened directly. Lu Qingjiu could clearly see that there was actually a black umbrella inside. Countless eyeballs hung with blood-red nerves, and the black pupils looked directly at Lu Qingjiu.

"Ah!!" Lu Qingjiu was frightened by this scene and called out. He responded very quickly, threw the vegetable basket, turned around and ran away.

There was a strange sound behind him, Lu Qingjiu turned his head to look, only to find that the black umbrella was rolling towards him like a wheel, the nerves of those eyeballs stuck inside the black umbrella, and as the black umbrella rolled Also formed a circle.

"Bai Yuehu, Bai Yuehu! Help, help!" In front of his desire to survive, Lu Qingjiu rushed faster than a rabbit. Fortunately, their land was very close to home. Lu Qingjiu sprinted 100 meters to the door. He rushed into the yard panting heavily, only to let go of the heart hanging after seeing Bai Yuehu.

"What's wrong?" Bai Yuehu asked when Lu Qingjiu was out of breath.

"I saw an umbrella on the side of the road—" Lu Qingjiu said with difficulty, "The umbrella is full of eyeballs, and they chased after me."

Bai Yuehu said, "Eyeball?" He thought for a moment, and seemed to have thought of something, then frowned slightly, "Where?"

Lu Qingjiu: "Just outside."

Bai Yuehu got up and walked to the door, but he didn't see anything. There was no black umbrella or eyeballs that Lu Qingjiu had mentioned on the empty country road.

Lu Qingjiu stood behind Bai Yuehu and tilted his head: "Why are you missing?"

Bai Yuehu turned his head and glanced at Lu Qingjiu: "Do you want to take a look?"

Lu Qingjiu: "Go... Let's see, the vegetables I just picked are still on the way."

Bai Yuehu stepped out of the yard, but what puzzled Lu Qingjiu was that the black umbrella that was chasing him just now disappeared, along with the vegetable basket he left on the side of the road.

"No." Lu Qingjiu said, "What is that?"

Bai Yuehu shook his head: "I don't know."

Lu Qingjiu: "Why is he chasing me?"

Bai Yuehu sighed: "It's never a good thing to chase after you."

That's right, looking at the terrifying appearance of the umbrella, it doesn't seem like a good thing. Although the umbrella is gone now, Lu Qingjiu still has lingering fears.

Bai Yuehu said: "Go back to the yard, I'll pick vegetables, what do you need?"

Lu Qingjiu said, "I'd better go back with you." Don't see that thing on the way back.

After picking the vegetables they wanted again, the two walked back. Lu Qingjiu kept paying attention to the surroundings, but obviously that thing didn't want to meet Bai Yuehu, and Lu Qingjiu didn't see it again until he entered the yard.

"Don't go out these days." After arriving home, Bai Yuehu instructed Lu Qingjiu.

Lu Qingjiu nodded, in response to Bai Yuehu's advice, he is not as powerful as Bai Yuehu. If he encounters something strange, running is the only way to survive.

At noon, Yin Xun also heard what happened to Lu Qingjiu, and he was also a little worried, but he still comforted Lu Qingjiu, saying that with Bai Yuehu there, there would be no problem.

Lu Qingjiu smiled and said, "I know, I'm just curious about what it is and what the eyeballs are inside."

Yin Xun said, "It's definitely not delicious anyway."

Bai Yuehu heard the words, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon, so Lu Qingjiu steamed the pumpkin he brought back in the morning, and took out the salted duck eggs that were pickled in winter, planning to make pumpkin egg yolk crisps. Yin Xun helped knead the dough, kneading the pumpkin and flour together. The method of making puff pastry is more complicated. The number of times the dough is folded and the temperature are the key. Lu Qingjiu made it for the first time. The oil in the egg yolk overflowed in one bite, and the sweet bean paste tasted fresh and salty.

Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu have always been very enthusiastic about snacks. The three of them ate sweet food and soon forgot the unpleasantness of the morning.

Lu Qingjiu originally planned to go to town tomorrow to buy some lemons and passion fruit to make lemon chicken feet, but he had to put it off because of the morning thing. He told Bai Yuehu about it. Bai Yuehu thought about it, and then Said that he would go to town to buy Lu Qingjiu, and Lu Qingjiu would just stay at home.

Lu Qingjiu was still very at ease with Bai Yuehu, and after watching him get into the pickup truck, he returned to the yard.

Yin Xun had just eaten several egg yolk cakes, and was sitting in the yard to rest. Lu Qingjiu looked up at the sky and found that the sky that was still sunny in the morning was now covered with black clouds, and it looked like it was going to rain. .

Spring rain is as expensive as oil. This is a heavy rain that everyone has been looking forward to for a long time.

Lu Qingjiu put away the things that were drying in the yard. Taking advantage of the good weather in the spring, he bought some things like cowpea and kelp, and planned to store them after drying. As long as these things are well preserved, they can be stored for a long time. It is also a good material for stewing soup.

Tangerines are also ripe this season. Lu Qingjiu bought some to eat at home. After eating, the peels were dried and used to make dried tangerine peels. Chenpi can be soaked in water or used as a spice. Putting a little in food can remove most of the fishy smell and oiliness.

Lu Qingjiu had almost put away the things, and the rain started to fall from the sky.

Different from the intense rain in summer, the spring rain is as soft as silk, and even the sound is gentle, falling on the ground slowly, bringing out the rustling sound.

The air began to smell of earth. Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun were sitting at home, chatting and watching the rain outside.

"Did Bai Yuehu not bring an umbrella?" Lu Qingjiu remembered something.

"Didn't he need to use an umbrella?" Yin Xun said.

"No way." Lu Qingjiu said, "He's shopping in the town, so he can't separate the rain like he did before." If this is seen by humans, then Bai Yuehu might not have to be watched.

"Hey, that's right." Yin Xun didn't think of this, he reached out and touched his head, "But the rain is small, it doesn't matter if it's drenched."

Lu Qingjiu didn't say a word, just got up and went to the bathroom to get a dry towel and put it on the table, thinking that Bai Yuehu was back, so he wiped his hair directly.

The rain gradually became heavier, and the dry land became a wet color, and puddles formed in the low-lying places. Lu Qingjiu suddenly remembered something: "Hey, did the beehive in the backyard forget to cover the tarpaulin?" In order to clean it up, he took off the tarpaulin on the hive and washed it, but he forgot to hang it back up. It's raining now. Wooden honeycombs get wet easily.

"I'll go." Yin Xun said, "Is the oilcloth in the kitchen?"

"Yeah." Lu Qingjiu said, "By the way, let's take a cup of honey and use it to make a cake tomorrow."

Yin Xun nodded, touched the umbrella and went out. Lu Qingjiu was still wondering if there was anything else he forgot to take back when he heard a miserable scream from Yin Xun from the backyard.

Lu Qingjiu was startled, and shouted, "Yin Xun!" He didn't even have time to open his umbrella, so he rushed straight to the backyard. When he rushed over, he picked up the wooden stick placed in the corner as a self-defense weapon.

"Aah—" Yin Xun was still screaming miserably.

After Lu Qingjiu saw Yin Xun in the backyard, he gasped and saw that Yin Xun's head was covered by a black umbrella. The umbrella seemed to be alive. His head was completely wrapped in it, and no matter how hard Yin Xun struggled, he couldn't break free.

Lu Qingjiu put down the stick and started to help Yin Xun tore the black umbrella, but no matter how hard he tried, the black umbrella was firmly stuck to Yin Xun's head. Yin Xun started to struggle hard, and then his movements gradually became smaller, as if Is out of strength.

Lu Qingjiu's anxious people were going crazy. He rushed to the kitchen to get the scissors, but found that the material of the umbrella couldn't be pierced with scissors at all.

"Yin Xun, Yin Xun, hold on, I'll call Bai Yuehu right away, hold on a little longer." Lu Qingjiu's face was covered in water, and he didn't know if it was rain or sweat.

"Wait." Yin Xun's muffled voice came from inside the umbrella, "I found that this thing doesn't seem to have any effect on me."

Lu Qingjiu: "... Huh?"

Yin Xun said, "Except I can't see it anymore." He wanted to scratch his head in a conditioned reflex, but he touched the surface of the black umbrella, "I don't need to breathe anyway, so it doesn't seem like it's a problem to wrap it like this."

Lu Qingjiu: "...Is it really okay?"

Yin Xun stood up from the ground: "It's really nothing."

Lu Qingjiu: "But can't you see?"

Yin Xun: "I'm a mountain god anyway. In fact, if I think about it, I can see without my eyes. It's just that I usually don't like to use this ability. After all, I always see things that I shouldn't see."

Lu Qingjiu: "Is there any other feeling?"

Yin Xun: "...Feeling? I don't feel anything." It didn't hurt or itch.

Lu Qingjiu took a deep breath: "Then why are you screaming like a killed chicken?"

Yin Xun embarrassed: "Isn't this frightening?" He became confident again, "If you were suddenly hugged by such a thing, wouldn't you scream?"

Lu Qingjiu thought to himself that I didn't have a chance to scream, anyway, people would be suffocated in at most two minutes.

Yin Xun said, "Then what should I do now? Just let it be on my head?"

Lu Qingjiu sighed: "Make do with it, when Bai Yuehu comes back, let him get it for you."

Yin Xun said: "Okay, it's still raining, you go first, I'll put the tarpaulin on it and come."

Lu Qingjiu said, "No, let's go in together." His heart really couldn't be stimulated any longer.

Yin Xun neatly covered the tarpaulin, proving that he really could see it. After finishing the hive, he entered the room with Lu Qingjiu. Lu Qingjiu picked up a towel and wiped his face, then glanced at Yin Xun whose head had turned into an umbrella.

Yin Xun: "Why are you looking at me? Does this umbrella look good?"

Lu Qingjiu: "..." My friend, why is your focus always so clear.

After Bai Yuehu finished shopping, his expression froze as soon as he entered the house. He looked at Lu Qingjiu, and then at the man next to Lu Qingjiu with an umbrella over his head.

Lu Qingjiu seemed to know what Bai Yuehu was thinking, and made an introduction: "This is Yin Xun."

Bai Yuehu: "...What kind of shape is this? You want to use an umbrella when your brain is flooded?"

Lu Qingjiu: "…"

Yin Xun: "…"

Bai Yuehu, you are truly talented.

The author has something to say: Yin Xun: woo woo woo I paid too much for this family.

Lu Qingjiu clapped his shoulders silently: It's hard work.
