Xingnian Tea House

Chapter 5 Signing a Contract

In Fuguiyuan Community, Lin Nanyue, who stayed up for several nights, finally had a good night's sleep. He woke up refreshed in the morning. After running for an hour in the morning, he bought breakfast and walked on the road in the community. He looked refreshed Yiyi, beaming.

The goddess who had been chasing him for a long time finally agreed to date him, and just in time for the case to be completed, he asked the director for leave without hesitation, and was ready to spend this wonderful day.

After the couple finished their breakfast, Lin Nanyue went directly to the bathroom, took a shower carefully, and used the shower gel that he had bought for a long time but kept as a display for the first time.After taking a shower, I dried my hair and started shaving again. I haven't shaved for a few days, and my beard has grown into a beard.

After tidying up the facade, I went to the wardrobe again to toss and try on one suit after another, and finally settled on a white shirt and slacks.This white shirt has a stand-up collar, a silk white shirt with a sense of design, and a pair of dark blue slacks. Although it looks simple, it gives people a very delicate feeling.The most important thing is that Lin Nanyue has a handsome face, let alone a shirt and trousers, he looks good even in a vest and big trousers.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Lin Nanyue nodded with satisfaction, picked up his phone and keys, and went out the door.

Although Qiao Xingnian is in the state of a soul now, he is still the same as usual. He should eat, eat and sleep. He doesn't look like a ghost at all. Qiao Xingnian knows it's all because of the soul-suppressing bell.

It happened to be twelve o'clock in the noon when Qiao Xingnian woke up. After a brief wash, he went back to the room and closed the curtains, releasing the man from the bell.

"Oh my god, I'm suffocating!" The man couldn't help but startled when he heard his voice, and then he said, "Brother, big brother, let's discuss whether we can stop using the silence spell in the future, the feeling of not being able to speak is too uncomfortable .”

"Whether it is possible or not depends on your performance."

"Don't worry, from today on, whatever you say and what I do, let me go east, I will never go west. Let me..."

"Stop!" Qiao Xingnian said jokingly, "From now on, I'll focus on the key points and stop talking nonsense."

"Yeah, let's get to the point, let's get to the point." Fearing that Qiao Xingnian would give him another curse, the man nodded his head.

Qiao Xingnian took out a pen and paper from the bell, dipped it in cinnabar and wrote on the paper stroke by stroke.

The man looked around the room, and then turned his attention to Qiao Xingnian. When he saw the words written by him, his eyes lit up, and he said, "You can write really well with this calligraphy brush. What kind of font is this?" ?”

"Xiaokai."

Qiao Xingnian put down the brush, picked up the written contract, handed it to the man and said, "Look, if you have no objections, just sign it."

The man looked at his hands and said, "I'm a ghost now, and I can't hold things."

"This is a pen and paper specially made for Hades, even ghosts can use it."

The man looked at it in amazement, and tentatively stretched out his hand to take the contract in Qiao Xingnian's hand. He actually got it. Although he didn't feel it, he got it.He enthusiastically went to get the writing brush that Qiao Xingnian had put down, and picked it up easily.

"This thing is really novel."

"Stop talking nonsense, and quickly read the content of the contract."

The man smiled resentfully, took a closer look at the contract, and said, "You want 50?"

Qiao Xingnian raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, are you worried that your parents won't be able to afford it?"

"Impossible! Although I don't have any previous memories, I'm sure my family must be very rich, just by looking at the car. That car is a limited edition, at least a few million. Your money is nothing. "

"Even if you lost your memory, you still know this kind of luxury very well. It seems that you must have been a prodigal son during your lifetime."

"You don't know me well, so how can you say I'm a prodigal just based on this? Hey, I found that you only rely on your own subjective assumptions, and you are not objective at all. This is not acceptable."

Well, I was taught a lesson by a grieving ghost.

Qiao Xingnian suddenly felt dumbfounded, and said, "Don't worry, I always tell the truth and don't make subjective assumptions. If you don't have an opinion, sign it immediately."

The man nodded, picked up the pen and wanted to sign, but he paused before finishing the pen, turned his head to look at Qiao Xingnian, and said with a wry smile: "I don't even know who I am, how do I sign?"

"You don't need a signature, you just need to put a tick here, and after your identity is confirmed, this will automatically become your name."

"Can it still be like this? The high technology of Hades is too good." The man approached Qiao Xingnian and said with a smile, "Hey, how did you get admitted to the civil servants of Hades? Do you think I have a chance?"

Qiao Xingnian was amused when he heard that, and said: "You are a grudge now, or a grudge who is likely to have contaminated human life, and you still want to take the civil servant exam?"

"That's just your conjecture, and it's not the truth. Maybe I was wronged. Just say, if I was wronged and the resentment in me is purified, can I be admitted as a civil servant in the underworld?" The man really said Comparing with Qiao Xingnian is real.

Qiao Xingnian said jokingly: "Even if you have been wronged and you have purified your grievances, then you are still a thousand miles away from the recruiting standards for civil servants in the underworld."

"You look down on me. Do you look down on me?" The man frowned slightly.

"Do you know spells? Do you know how to catch ghosts? Do you know what ghosts do?"

The man froze when asked, and said, "I don't know how to do it, but I can learn it. As long as you are willing to teach me, you can offer me whatever price you want."

"You sign the contract first, and then we'll talk about the rest."

The man picked up a pen and drew a tick on the contract, saying, "I've signed it, so when shall we start?"

"We are all ghosts now, do you still want to go out in broad daylight?" Qiao Xingnian said while putting the contract into the bell.

"Yes, ghosts can't see the sun, otherwise they will lose their souls."

"In fact, ghosts can also act during the day, but it will consume the power of your soul. Once the power of your soul is exhausted, your soul will fly away. It's not like dying in the light of the movie."

The man nodded and said, "So that's the case. Then shall we act again at night?"

"Well, go to the morgue tonight to confirm your identity."

"Do you know where they're going to take my body?"

"Of course, it's not the first time I've done something, but before there, you'd better stay in the bell."

Without giving the man a chance to speak, Qiao Xingnian directly recited the spell silently, and put the man back into the bell.

Suddenly, the phone in his pocket vibrated twice. Qiao Xingnian took out the phone and looked at it. It was a message from Jiang Mohan.

"Are you up? I'm hungry."

Qiao Xingnian shook his head amusedly, put the phone back in his pocket, opened the door and walked out.Seeing Jiang Mohan standing at the door, he smiled and said, "You are hungry, you can order takeaway, do you have to do it?"

"The takeaway is not clean, and it's not as delicious as your cooking." What Jiang Mohan said was taken for granted.

"No, it's fine if you stay at my house, I'm not your nanny..."

"You are my younger brother." Jiang Mohan interrupted Qiao Xingnian and said, "There are not many ingredients in the refrigerator, let's go down and buy some together."

Qiao Xingnian understood that the reason why Jiang Mohan came here to eat and live was because he was afraid that he would be too lonely, and that something unexpected would happen to him because of his deafness.It's just that there are always ghosts around him, and there are even resentful ghosts haunting him. He is really afraid that Jiang Mohan will consume the yang energy in him because of this, so as to affect his lifespan.

"Brother, you are almost [-] anyway, you should have your own life, what's the matter with relying on me."

"Stay clean here with you. Hurry up and change, let's go to the supermarket together."

As Jiang Mohan said, he stretched out his hand to grab Qiao Xingnian. He was taken aback by the cold touch, and then frowned, and said, "Why are you so cold? Are you sick?"

Qiao Xingnian naturally broke away from Jiang Mohan's tugging, and said, "I've had cold hands and feet in winter since I was a child. This is normal. Brother, wait a minute, I'll go change my clothes."

"Cold hands and feet are physical weakness and illness. Anyway, you're fine today. I'll take you to the hospital."

"Brother, even if your hospital needs to generate income, you can't extract wool from your own family. If you want to make a living elsewhere, I will take care of you more. This hospital should be spared. I am not born with the hospital."

"You kid is really..." Jiang Mohan couldn't laugh or cry when Qiao Xingnian said it.

"Stop talking, I'm going to change clothes."

Qiao Xingnian didn't say any more, and went straight back to the bedroom, took a random set of clothes from the closet and changed, and went out with Jiang Mohan.He was wearing a black baseball cap, dark brown sunglasses, and a black mask. He was wearing a beige hooded sweater, paired with a pair of blue jeans, and a pair of white sneakers on his feet.If you look carefully, you will definitely find that his whole body is tightly wrapped, and he even wears a pair of black gloves on his hands.

Qiao Xingnian did this because he wanted to do an experiment to see how much damage the sunlight would do to him.

When Qiao Xingnian went out, Jiang Mohan sized up his attire and said, "It's almost summer, so why wrap it so tightly?"

"I'm not physically weak. Of course I have to keep warm. Let's go for a walk, or we'll have dinner instead of lunch."

Jiang Mohan didn't say any more, and went out with Qiao Xingnian.

Although their community is dilapidated, it is actually in the city center. As for why it was not demolished, there have always been different opinions.

After leaving the community, walk two intersections to the largest supermarket in Hucheng. People come and go every day, and it is even more crowded during holidays. It is more difficult to park a car than to get a driver's license.There is a saying that is very vivid, "Driving for half an hour, looking for a parking space for an hour."

Qiao Xingnian looked up at the sky. The spring sun wasn't too hot, but it was warm and comfortable.He tentatively took off the glove on his right hand, and his slightly pale hand was slowly exposed to the sun until the whole glove was taken off, but he didn't feel the slightest difference, and even felt very comfortable.

Qiao Xingnian reached out his hand to touch the Soul Requiem Bell, and felt a burst of warmth. He looked down, and the Soul Requiem Bell flickered as if responding. He was surprised when he saw it. Have a consciousness of your own?"
