Chen Zhen thought for a while and said, "You can't use the hourglass, and you need Zhou Wanyuan's assistance."
Xiang Cheng said: "Aura lock, opening the aura lock once will allow me to use it for a while."
"What do you want the hourglass for?" Chen Zhen said: "Teacher Zhou did promise that whoever leads the organization department will open the aura lock and lend it to the minister. I haven't given it to me yet. If you can get it, it's okay to lend it to you. "
"Borrow it now." Xiang Cheng said, "I'm considering helping you with this."
Chen Zhen had no choice but to plug in the self-service machine again, wrote a note, handed it to Xiang Cheng, and said, "Go to Teacher Zhou, at this time, your words are more useful than mine."
Xiang Cheng got the note, got up and left.
Chi Xiaoduo checked the self-service machine, and asked Chen Zhen, "Aren't Cao Bin and Da Keda working in the department?"
"Cao Bin was dismissed for investigation." Chen Zhen replied, "I received a second-level certificate. Da Ke was afraid of being forced to marry, so he applied to stay on and travel, but it was never approved, and you let him go just now."
The corner of Chi Xiaoduo's mouth twitched, and Chen Zhen said again, "What's your plan?"
Chi Xiaoduo shrugged and said, "Follow Xiang Cheng."
Xiang Cheng came back, holding a small cloth bag, which contained the hourglass. Chi Xiaoduo opened it curiously, and saw a special symbol at the bottom of the hourglass, emitting a faint golden light. He thought this should be the legendary Aura is locked. Most powerful magic treasures recognize their masters, but as long as the master puts a seal on it, it can temporarily hide from the magic treasure, so that the breath flowing through the magic seal is mistaken by the magic treasure for the master to operate.
Of course, the number of times is also limited.
"That's it." Chen Zhen said, "Write a receipt, I can only lend it to you for three months, and it can only be used once. I believe you will use it properly."
Xiang Cheng wrote the receipt, and Chen Zhen handed him the report, saying, "Look at the content, and I will contact the local criminal police to assist you."
Xiang Cheng took the report, went to check the self-service machine with Chi Xiaoduo, and Chen Zhen said: "This is for you, Xiaoduo, it is the exam subsidy issued by the driving committee. Also, you got the first place in the exam this year, and you will get a bonus , is a voucher in the shopping street, a total of 20,000."
Chi Xiaoduo was overjoyed, and took the envelope, which contained twenty 1,000 coupons and a pile of cash.
Xiang Cheng: "What about me?"
"Manual laborers are not human beings." Chen Zhen replied, "No."
Xiang Cheng: "..."
"Me neither." Chen Zhen said.
Xiang Cheng had no choice but to give up, log in at the self-service machine, and choose a task.
"I want to take this task." Xiang Cheng said to Chi Xiaoduo, "Can I?"
"Of course." Chi Xiaoduo said, "It doesn't matter to me, just follow you."
Mission location: [Zhengzhou, Kaifeng and other places in Henan Province.]
Task content: [Investigate a monster lurking in the folk, and provide the exorcist with clues about the demon species and totem. For details, please refer to the report of the Organization Department.]Chi Xiaoduo: "!!!"
Demon species!
It was exactly what Chi Xiaoduo needed to collect. Xiang Cheng glanced at it, then logged out, and said, "Go back and study it."
Chen Zhen said: "If you have difficulties, you can always find an organization."
Xiang Cheng hummed, and Chi Xiaoduo said, "Xiao Lang..."
"He's doing research on a magic weapon." Chen Zhen said, "I want to join the Information Department and help the organization. Maybe I don't have time these few days. You should make an appointment with him alone before you leave."
"Okay." Chi Xiaoduo replied.
The two went down to the second floor. Chi Xiaoduo went to the service window first, took out his notebook and showed it to the clerk to scan, and the clerk said, "Hey, you have collected quite a lot."
"It's okay." Chi Xiaoduo felt that he didn't have many entries.
"Are you sure to give them all?" the clerk asked.
"Of course." Chi Xiaoduo asked strangely, "Is there any question?"
"Wait here a moment," said the clerk.
"Why keep it?" Chi Xiaoduo asked Xiang Cheng.
"Some people think these are untold secrets." Xiang Cheng replied.
Chi Xiaoduo said: "That's right, it seems that you have never handed over these things to the organization."
"I'm just lazy." Xiang Cheng said casually, "I don't want to write."
Chi Xiaoduo smiled and said, "For the sake of world peace, you shouldn't hide your secrets, but you can dictate to me in the future, and I will record it."
Xiang Cheng put one hand on Chi Xiaoduo's shoulder, vigilantly guarding against someone coming to hug Chi Xiaoduo's thigh at any time, asking for affiliation to go on a mission by the way. But maybe in a few years, when there are more Demon Subduing Masters, the situation will improve.
"Okay." The clerk handed it out and said, "Your information entry has been assessed, and your grade point is 440 points. Here are four 100 vouchers, which can be spent downstairs."
Great! There are even vouchers! This is really suitable for me, Chi Xiaoduo is very grateful, took the notebook, and the two went down to the shopping street. Chi Xiaoduo took a list and started shopping. The underground shopping street has also been transformed into a grocery supermarket where all the shops gather in the square. The shelves are filled with stacks of talismans, cinnabar boxes for drawing talismans, mirrors for demon mirrors, and even some in freezers. The monster Neidan and eyeballs...
Chi Xiaoduo bought a bird's beak, which he opened and closed in front of his mouth.
"This can be used as a hook for catching monsters." Chi Xiaoduo said.
Xiang Cheng laughed. It was also his first contact with the world of Demon Subduing Masters. The grotesque materials were like a new world.
"Have you never made a magic weapon before?" Chi Xiaoduo said, "This kind of snake tendons... um..."
There were a few tendons in the crisper, and Chi Xiaoduo took a peek at Xiang Cheng, thinking that he might not like it, so he decided not to.
"Do you want it?" Xiang Cheng asked, "If you want it, buy it, I still have money."
"Do you feel uncomfortable when you see snake products?" Chi Xiaoduo asked, "Snake skin wallets, for example."
"Of course not." Xiang Cheng said strangely.
That's good.
This tendon can be taken back to make a kind of crossbow string. Oh, there is also an extremely cold place here, how to use the claws of the crab demon? Never mind, let's buy it first, and a roll of the water-swallowing beast's mane.
There are also peach wood, ebony and rosewood. A little bit of rosewood costs more than 10,000 yuan. Chi Xiaoduo dared not buy it, so he bought two small pieces of ebony, which can be used to make two seals.
There is actually a living supermarket underground, and a small number of daily necessities can be bought with vouchers, so Chi Xiaoduo bought a la carte and put them together with monster pliers. Each of them was wearing an earphone, and there was a mess of things in the back seat. Chi Xiaoduo was lying on the handlebar, swiping his phone.
"What are you looking for?" Xiang Cheng asked.
"Buy a plane ticket." Chi Xiaoduo said, "Aren't you going to Zhengzhou?"
"By plane?" Xiang Cheng's expression was a bit wrong.
"Um."
"Will it fall?" Xiang Cheng asked, "What if the plane crashes?"
Chi Xiaoduo: "..."
Chi Xiaoduo explained that the word "fall" cannot be used, and then assured him that there would be no problem. Xiang Cheng believed it dubiously, but he was still a little nervous.
About to leave Beijing, Chi Xiaoduo sent a text message to Chen Lang. Chen Lang seemed to be very busy recently, so he replied, come to see him on Sunday afternoon.
Chi Xiaoduo wanted to say goodbye to his friends, but both Zhou Wanyuan and Koda's cell phones were turned off, Cao Bin didn't know where to go, and Chen Zhen was too busy to have time, so he had to ask them to come back for another reunion.
On the plane at noon on Sunday, Chen Lang never came. Xiang Cheng packed his things in big bags and stuffed daily necessities into woven bags. This is the house that the Deportation Committee rented temporarily for them, and it is going to be transferred to the next resident. Chi Xiaoduo left those who couldn't get on the plane with the next person, and the two crowded the subway to the airport.
"I've already thought about it." Chi Xiaoduo said, "Look, here is our living expenses."
"So many?" Xiang Cheng looked in surprise.
Chi Xiaoduo said: "I bought both of our deposits into wealth management products, so that there will be at least 3,000 yuan to spend a month, and there will be no shortage of money."
"You are too virtuous." Xiang Cheng said, "You can get rich without doing anything? Why?"
"Uh..." Chi Xiaoduo said, "It's similar to interest, you just treat it as interest."
Xiang Cheng didn't know much about economics. He didn't even understand why the bank would charge depositors for money instead of charging storage fees when it was stored in a bank. After entering the bank, it will be placed in the bank's box.
Chi Xiaoduo was very funny, and after explaining for a long time, Xiang Cheng nodded.
When he arrived at the airport, there were still two hours to board the plane, and Xiang Cheng became nervous again. He looked at this and that, when the security check machine rang when he was checking in his luggage, Xiang Cheng might be interrogated, and he looked alert like a wanted criminal.
Chi Xiaoduo was also a little afraid that if some magic weapon triggered the alarm, it would be over. Fortunately, it was just shampoo in the end.
"Why is there a blanket where we stand?" Xiang Cheng asked again.
"Because you are a great hero who saves the world!" Chi Xiaoduo said, "They specially laid out a carpet to welcome you."
Xiang Cheng: "..."
"Thank you both for taking our plane," said the other party.
Xiang Cheng and Chi Xiaoduo came out with their boarding passes, and Xiang Cheng said, "It's too enthusiastic, and it's a bit malicious."
Chi Xiaoduo: "..."
Chi Xiaoduo said: "Because you are a great hero who saves the world."
Xiang Cheng laughed.
When Chi Xiaoduo walked up to the security check, Xiang Cheng was about to go in. Chi Xiaoduo suddenly felt his heart move and turned his head to look.
Chen Lang ran over staggeringly, Chi Xiaoduo yelled, rushed over, and hugged him.
[I am sorting out the information.]Chen Lang said, [I just finished entering your categories, I'm late.][I miss you so much! ] Chi Xiaoduo wrote on his board, [You have to live a good life!][You have to be together. ] Chen Lang wrote again.
Chi Xiaoduo took Chen Lang's hand, and suddenly Chen Lang wrote on his palm: [Xiang Cheng, Ba She. ] Chi Xiaoduo:? ?
Chen Lang: [Everything be careful.]
Chi Xiaoduo's expression changed, and before he could say anything, Chen Lang wrote on his arm: [Help Xiang Cheng defeat the darkness.]Chen Zhen came over and patted them both.
In half an hour, Chi Xiaoduo and Chen Lang parted reluctantly. Chen Lang nodded and wrote: [It will be fine. Pay attention to protect the hourglass of time.][OK. ] Chi Xiaoduo got the news suddenly, but thinking about it, maybe Chen Lang just said that because he cared about him.
"Goodbye." Chen Zhen said, "I look forward to seeing you again."
Chi Xiaoduo hugged Chen Zhen again, Chen Zhen patted his back for fear, and said, "Go, don't make Xiang Cheng wait too long."
Chi Xiaoduo saw Xiang Cheng packing up his things after the security check, so he waved to them again and left.
The two carried a bag each and entered the waiting hall.
Outside the airport, Chen Zhen passed another security checkpoint and suddenly spotted someone.
"Gergen Torule—"
Koda flashed in instantly and made a face at Chen Zhen.
Chen Zhen wanted to chase him in, but he was stopped outside. There was nothing he could do about it.
Chen Lang: [?]
[Forget it, let's go.]Chen Zhen said to Chen Lang.
The two left the security check and saw Zhou Wanyuan, who was wearing gucci sunglasses, dragging a prada suitcase, and wearing a Hermès silk scarf, walked in vigorously.
"Hey, why is there no one to welcome my old lady?" Zhou Wanyuan got rid of the big stone in her heart, and finally she would not be forced to marry. The airline counter quickly moved like a crab, and inserted sideways into the economy class queue.
"I've seen you, Zhou Wanyuan." Chen Zhen said, "Don't run away!"
"Everyone, do me a favor!" Zhou Wanyuan took off her sunglasses and shouted, "Grandpa and Aunt, please do me a favor! Help me stop my ex-husband! I don't want to see him kneel down again! Let me leave this sad place!"
Zhou Wanyuan created a gossip-like riot, wishing Chen Lang could call out "Mom", Chen Zhen immediately said: "Don't listen to her nonsense..."
However, Zhou Wanyuan had already run fast and disappeared.
In the first-class waiting room, Xiang Cheng and Chi Xiaoduo ate and ate, enjoying themselves.
Da Da walked over with a "ha ha ha", patted Chi Xiaoduo on the shoulder, and said, "Finally, I don't have to be forced to marry, oops! This time it's thanks to you."
"Koda!" Chi Xiaoduo hugged him with tears in his eyes. Xiang Cheng expressionlessly grabbed Koda by the collar, dragged him aside, and stuffed him with a large bag of potato chips.
Chi Xiaoduo: "Are you going to Zhengzhou too?"
Da Da slapped his thigh, and his face blossomed with joy.
"Shoot it! So, so, so..." Koda shook his head, and sang, "The king sent me to patrol the mountains, so, so, so—"
"A mission?" Chi Xiaoduo asked.
Kodak took out the report and said, "Investigate a missing bus case, how about you?"
"There are many cases in Zhengzhou." Chi Xiaoduo said, "But we still have Kaifeng."
"There are still ten minutes." Koda said, "It's great. It's a coincidence to meet an old friend in a foreign land. I can hold Xiang Daxian's thigh again. I'll go to the toilet and wait for me."
Keda went to the bathroom, Chi Xiaoduo and Xiang Cheng leaned together, watching movies on their mobile phones with earphones on each other.
"Oh—hahahahaha—" Zhou Wanyuan laughed resoundingly, "What a coincidence, the world is so small, oh—"
Chi Xiaoduo glanced at Zhou Wanyuan, Xiang Cheng was drinking water, and immediately spit out a mouthful of water.
"Are you going to Zhengzhou too?" Chi Xiaoduo asked.
"My mother is going to Luoyang." Zhou Wanyuan said arrogantly, "The king sent me to patrol the mountains—ah, I finally got rid of that frozen chicken man, thank you, sister Chi..."
Chi Xiaoduo: "..."
Zhou Wanyuan smiled as charmingly as a flower, but after going to the toilet, she said, "Hurry up, get on the plane..."
Zhou Wanyuan and Koda met each other, their smiles froze on their faces.
On the plane, Xiang Cheng asked Chi Xiaoduo to sit by the window, and the flight attendant brought them water, and Xiang Cheng quickly said thank you.
"Can I change my position?" Zhou Wanyuan said.
Da Ke sat with Zhou Wanyuan.
Chi Xiaoduo looked back, then looked at Xiang Cheng questioningly.
Xiang Cheng: "Change it."
So Chi Xiaoduo and Xiang Cheng got up, and changed seats with Da Keda and Zhou Wanyuan, but Zhou Wanyuan and Da Dada still sat together.
Koda made a gesture and said cautiously: "I mean, change them separately..."
Xiang Cheng said, "No."
As the plane took off, Chi Xiaoduo lay on the back of the chair and looked back.
"Can't you just talk about it?" Chi Xiaoduo said, "It's so embarrassing."
Zhou Wanyuan said: "Kadao, you are a good person, but I will never marry you."
Da Ke nodded and said, "Sister Wanyuan, I will definitely not marry you."
Chi Xiaoduo said, "Isn't that all right?"
Zhou Wanyuan rested her forehead with one hand, losing her temper completely.
An hour later, the plane landed at Zhengzhou Airport. Zhou Wanyuan and the others headed to Luoyang without changing the green mountains and flowing green waters.
"Finally..." Koda breathed out.
"There will be follow-ups." Chi Xiaoduo said expressionlessly.
"Yeah." Xiang Cheng said.
Da Keda: "Don't have a crow's mouth!"
Chi Xiaoduo came to an unfamiliar environment full of curiosity, Da Da warmly invited them to live in a friend's house, but Xiang Cheng ruthlessly rejected him, telling him not to be a light bulb. In the evening of that day, the two first found a real estate agency in Jinshui District and planned to rent a house. Xiang Cheng specifically pointed out that there should be heating instead of shared renting, and there should be no air leakage from all sides.
After looking at two places, in the end Xiang Cheng was very satisfied with the two bedrooms and one living room in a quiet community. It is said that there are egg pancakes and spicy soup downstairs in the morning. Chi Xiaoduo is also very satisfied. The rent is 2800 yuan, which is a little expensive A little bit, but the garden is very comfortable.
Chi Xiaoduo withdrew the money, counted the money for the intermediary, and counted them out in stacks. After counting for three months, he took out a deposit of 2,000, and he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
"Are you sure we can live for so long?" Chi Xiaoduo asked.
Xiang Cheng replied: "Of course it's good if you can finish the work early, so it's time to travel."
Chi Xiaoduo thought about it, he hadn't spent the winter in the north yet, and he was looking forward to it when he heard that it would snow, so he just went out for nearly ten thousand at once.
"I'll go find a job tomorrow." Xiang Cheng said, "You can just play at home."
Chi Xiaoduo said: "I don't have anything to play with. Are you picking on the wall? I also want to find a job."
"Then you cook." Xiang Cheng thought for a while and replied, "You are not allowed to look for a job."
Chi Xiaoduo: "I don't know how to cook, only scrambled eggs with tomatoes."
"Then wait for me to cook for you when I come back from get off work." Xiang Cheng replied.
Chi Xiaoduo: "Then what should I do!"
Xiang Cheng: "Miss me at home."
The agency girl kept laughing, counted the money, handed them the receipt, and said, "Goodbye, handsome guys."
Xiang Cheng closed the door, turned around, hugged Chi Xiaoduo, and threw him on the bed.
"I haven't done it all day." Xiang Cheng said in Chi Xiaoduo's ear, "I'm suffocating."
Panting for breath, Chi Xiaoduo rubbed Xiang Cheng's hair. This rental house is very comfortable, with few furniture and very empty space. They echoed a few words. Life is very simple, but Chi Xiaoduo felt Couldn't be happier.
