"I said, are we eating too much? Can we make money later?"
Su Xiao pointed to the empty plate in front of him that formed a hill, holding the last plate of mung bean cake in his hand, and the Melaleuca crisp was still chewing in his mouth... This is a special place to go to other restaurants to pick up expensive cakes. What should someone who ordered more than 20 dishes say
"If you don't have money, don't come to eat in other people's big restaurants. It's shameless."
"You eat a lot more than I do!!"
"That's because what you're talking about is too complicated!" Su Xiao tilted his head, his mouth full, like a chipmunk eating, "It takes me a lot of brains to figure out what you're talking about. By the time I figured it out, I was hungry again and I had to eat. Then you talked a lot more…”
Girl, your thinking system is a bit advanced! Can snacks be used for brain power? You are very likely to become the first arrester in my country to solve a case by relying on golden cake and mung bean cake!
"Don't worry. Didn't I tell you? We're here to get money."
I looked left and right and nodded 'um'. Then he took out a delicate bone china vial from his arms and quickly poured some powder into his hand. I flipped my palms back and forth, and stopped on the fourth time.
Su Xiao blinked his eyes: "Brother Ming, what are you doing?"
"Remember what I'm doing."
I said to Su Xiao.
"Never forget. I only do it once in front of people."
The flow of air seemed to slow down.
My actions must be the same in Su Xiao's eyes. My hands slowly opened, clenched into fists, opened again, and remained motionless.
Su Xiao didn't speak - more should be afraid to speak. Seems to be frightened by my seriousness. Su Xiao is not often seen when I am silent, but he is very obedient and silently staring at my hand.
After a while, a pigeon came and stopped in my hand. The pigeon was nothing special or beautiful, just a common wild pigeon.
"Pigeon?"
"It's time to go."
With a flick of my hand, the pigeon took off slowly. It's like a chick learning to fly, and when it flies, it falls, and even its wings are unhappy. Mixed with a little brown feathers, it seems that some resistance has offset the momentum of vigorously flapping the fan, but it does not appear to be particularly difficult to 'float' up. It has become a flight attitude that violates the laws of nature.
Su Xiao looked strange and was about to say something. I turned a finger and touched the soft pale cherry lips.
"Don't be distracted, remember everything. Air, sights, sounds, things, causes, changes... remember nothing."
Su Xiao didn't dare to speak any more, just followed me and the pigeon silently.
The pigeon flew slowly for a while and took us up from the private room on the second floor, all the way to the sixth floor. The second and third floors of the Mingyue Building are private rooms, but there are no private seats here, and the New Year's Eve is very lively. The first floor is afraid that the seats are not open, and the heads of people are surging and talking, and even the voice of the speech cannot be heard. The pigeon looked for a table and flew away, just in the hands of a middle-aged man in a yellow robe. This man has a yellow face and thin skin, with thirsty brows and sharp eyes, and there are many such people among the merchants. He was laughing to himself, and he was excited to exchange cups with his tablemates.
As soon as he saw the pigeon, the lean man with sharp eyes narrowed his eyes and laughed, but said nothing, and threw the pigeon away again. As if nothing happened, continue to eat and drink.
I pulled Su Xiao to a secluded corner, found an empty house, and walked in.
"Don't talk to others about what you see now. No one can do it, no time. It includes talking in your sleep, getting a wife, having children, and dying."
Su Xiao couldn't understand more and more: "Brother Ming... Your face is a bit scary... What are you talking about?"
"Your arena will start from now on, try to understand before you try to refuse."
I ignored Su Xiao's doubts and continued: "The only time you can talk about what happened today... Only when you find a successor."
"successor?"
I suddenly burst into laughter.
"My master, that's what he told me back then."
"Eh? Is that so?"
Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief: "You are demonstrating to me what your master does. But why are you doing this?"
I smiled and didn't answer.
- Master, why do you do such a thing
—Because my master did that back then.
-Then why only say it once
"Also, why can you only say it once?"
I tried my best not to look like that big bastard of my master, but involuntarily I said the same thing. I touched Su Xiao's little head and rubbed it lightly.
"What you really need to remember, you only need to say once in a lifetime."
I looked at Su Xiao with an unprecedented tenderness in my eyes.
Su Xiaojun's face was flushed, but he didn't know how to react. He let me rub my head, but I felt a little guilty when I wanted to look up.
"excuse me."
Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared beside us silently. Su Xiao was startled, thinking that the enemy attacked and clenched Gu Han unconsciously and almost drew his knife. Only after seeing it clearly did he realize that it was the lean man who caught the pigeon. .
This man still had the same appearance just now, with thief eyebrows and rat eyes, a deer head and rat eyes, a moustache and a small businessman's pattern.
However, at the moment, his face is expressionless, his voice is flat, every word is emotionally flat, there is no ups and downs in tone, and he seems to have lost even his feelings.
"Heaven and earth are everywhere, and the treasure house of black and white mirrors is here to serve you."
I smiled and said, "I have been disturbed many times, and I will take care of you."
Su Xiao covered his mouth and said, "Black and White Jian? Isn't that your favorite book?"
"Now, you don't want to think about whether this is my favorite book, but you should think of a nickname for yourself."
"Why do you want a nickname?"
"You'll know in a while."
The lean man took out an account book from his arms at some point, and his eyes were dull: "I am the 26,333rd guard of the Black and White Jian Jianghu Treasure House. I don't know, which distinguished guest is here?"
I opened my mouth and recited: "Membership number, Dongyaodong Turtlebow Lianglu Qiyaogoudong."
Su Xiao opened his mouth wide: "What is this!"
I coughed twice: "What do you know, Jianghu Secret Biography, it's all like this."
The lean man searched the account for a while, then raised his head and said, "I found it. May I ask if this is the distinguished guest, Mr. Lei Tianba, Auntie Perak?"
"… "
I was at a loss for words, and Su Xiao's gaze beside me made my chest hurt...
