Chapter 1 Xieyang Street
Ye Jinbai dragged a large suitcase and walked for more than ten minutes under the midsummer noon sun, and finally found No. 45 Xieyang Street.
He took out a key and opened the store door, and a dusty musty smell came out. The store had been vacant for more than a year since the original owner became seriously ill.
This is a very beautiful two-story building with a small attic.After removing the dusty white cloth, there was solid wood furniture of huanghuali underneath.
The original owner of this store passed away three days ago, and the store was transferred to Ye Jinbai. It happened that Ye Jinbai was homeless, so he simply accepted the other party's kindness and inherited the store.
When he was cleaning, a young man of about 25 walked out from the next door. He looked at Ye Jinbai who was cleaning the door for a moment, and said lazily, "The new one? Where is the original one?"
Ye Jinbai stopped moving: "He passed away."
The other party was stunned for a moment, then made a disinterested expression, responded casually, turned around and was about to enter the door, and then turned around and said, "For the sake of the kindness I owed to that old man before, let me remind you In a word, it's not peaceful here, don't go out in the middle of the night if you have nothing to do."
Ye Jinbai didn't understand why, but he still thanked him for his kindness.
After the cleaning, the house was basically clean, but there was still a vague rancid smell. Ye Jinbai looked at his phone, it was already past seven, he could go to dinner and buy some deodorizing things when he came back.
Diagonally opposite his shop is a noodle shop, and next door to the noodle shop, that is, directly opposite his door is a spice shop.Ye Jinbai had dinner, and hesitated for a long time in front of the door next door—Xieyang Street is a famous gathering place for customized luxury goods in Peishi, and it is also a famous gathering place for street food. On this street, there are cheap shops but also expensive ones. luxury store.
I don't know if this perfume shop belongs to a luxury store.
But Ye Jinbai chose to go in after hesitation—the lingering rancid smell in his store was too unbearable, he had to find a perfume or freshener to suppress it, and he could just go to the supermarket , but there is no supermarket on this street.
It's just a perfume, so it shouldn't be too expensive.
Poverty, it turns out, limited his imagination.
The plaque of this perfume shop reads "Overturned Boat". The outer facade is much larger than his, about 150 square meters. When the idea was put into practice, the waiter in the store came forward.
"Hello, do you need any help?"
Ye Jinbai Junxiu's face was slightly red, and he said a little embarrassedly: "Let me see for myself first."
The other party saw Ye Jinbai's embarrassment that was not well concealed, smiled considerately, and stood at the original place. Ye Jinbai heaved a sigh of relief and was about to sneak away. The owner of the shop next door pushed open the door and entered.
"Why are you running here?" The other party's expression became much uglier when he saw him, and he folded his arms and said in a vicious voice.
Ye Jinbai didn't know where he offended him, thought about it, and said, "I'm going back now."
"You're driving my business out the door."
The voice with a smile made Ye Jinbai's steps stop, and he subconsciously turned around.
A young man about 25 years old came out from the inner room, wearing a black shirt and trousers. When he walked over, the regular customers and employees in the store greeted each other: "Mr. Pei."
The owner of the shop next door looked even uglier.
"Hi, I'm Pei Su, and I'm just across the door from you."
Pei Su stretched out his hand, and Ye Jinbai shook him. He got closer, and Ye Jinbai could smell the bitter incense on his body, which was inexplicably familiar.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Pei Su asked.
His voice was exceptionally soft, and the speed of his speech was gentle. Ye Jinbai relaxed inexplicably, and the embarrassment disappeared. He smiled shyly, "I'll come in and take a look."
Pei Su chuckled lightly, and after the two chatted for a while, Ye Jinbai hurriedly left, and the owner of the shop next door also followed along, crossing the road, the owner of the shop next door said fiercely: "Say no Running around, it’s getting dark, and if you don’t stay at home honestly, you’ll regret it if you’re caught by something!” After finishing speaking, he coughed again and said, “I’m not concerned about you, I’m looking out for the neighbors I just reminded you."
This is really textbook-like arrogance.Ye Jinbai nodded with a smile. When he returned to the shop and was about to close, he found Pei Su standing opposite the door in the shadow of the "Overturned Boat" shop door, with a tall and straight figure and deep eyes. He happened to meet Ye Jinbai's eyes. So he tilted his head in the twilight and smiled slightly.
Beauty seduces people.
Ye Jinbai's heart skipped a beat suddenly, and when he came back to his senses, his ears were burning red, and he hurriedly nodded to him as a greeting, then turned around and closed the door to avoid his gaze.
Pei Su looked at the closed door, twirling the wrench in his hand, with a little surprise in his eyes - this child really didn't seem to know him.
After taking a shower, I took care of some things. The time was approaching 11:30. Ye Jinbai was about to go upstairs to rest. When he walked up the stairs, he heard rustling sounds. Ye Jinbai felt it carefully. The slight night wind brought There was a strong evil spirit.
Dong dong dong
There were three polite knocks on the door, and a thin voice came from outside the door, with a hanging voice: "Excuse me."
Immediately afterwards, the locked shop door shook violently, a pool of wet and sticky shadows was trying its best to squeeze in through the gap, and the parts that had appeared inside the door condensed together to form a head, with two empty eyes aimed at Ye Jinbai then grinned, revealing a row of jagged teeth.
"I'm coming in." It said so, struggling to wriggle through the small crack in the door, trying to enter the room.
Ye Jinbai didn't panic, he was used to the appearance of such things.
He quickly went upstairs and dragged out his suitcase, and took out the talisman paper from it. The locked door downstairs was extremely fragile under the action of the demon force, and it creaked and groaned unbearably.With a sound, Ye Jinbai threw out dozens of talisman papers and stuck them on the door at the same time with a snap, forming a huge "seal" character. The light green aura overflowed on the talisman papers, and the "seal" character shone brightly. The shadows stuck in the crack of the door screamed and shrank out together.
There was a squeaking sound from upstairs, Ye Jinbai's face changed slightly, and he strode upstairs, the door and window of the bedroom were wide open, a giant gray mouse was lying beside the bed, sniffing something, and heard Ye Jin The sound of Bai going upstairs, it turned its head, a pair of bean-sized red eyes flashed in the night, but it didn't rush directly, but shook its ears vigilantly.
Ye Jinbai frowned slightly - this rat demon already had wisdom, and his cultivation level might not be low, and the talisman paper might not be able to deal with it.
The mouse demon took a deep breath, it could inquire about the rich vitality coming from Ye Jinbai and the pure aura enough to drive monsters crazy.How it fascinates it, how it makes it...hungry!
The rat demon couldn't bear it anymore, kicked strongly, and rushed towards Ye Jinbai!
Ye Jinbai turned his wrist, a small seal appeared in the palm of his hand, only the size of a pendant, he raised his hand and threw it, the seal lightly knocked on the rat demon, the human-sized rat demon suddenly shrank to the size of a palm, and Ye Jinbai A piece of talisman paper was wrapped into a ball and fell to the corner of the wall.
what? What?The Rat Demon couldn't believe it.
Ye Jinbai stepped forward calmly, picked up the mouse monster by his tail, and was about to throw it down. When he opened the window, Ye Jinbai was stunned—it turned out that there were little monsters surrounded in front of his shop, looking up Looking at the open window, the longing in the eyes almost condensed into substance, and when Ye Jinbai appeared at the window, he immediately let out howls.
Ye Jinbai threw the mouse monster down, the little monsters swiped away, and the mouse monster fell to the hard ground with a slap, still looking at Ye Jinbai with eyes full of desire and appetite.At this time, the window on the second floor next door opened, and the owner of the shop poked his head out and shouted, "What's the noise in the middle of the night? Others don't sleep? If you make any more noise, you'll peel off the skin and stew it all, and don't get out?!"
The strange screams downstairs stopped abruptly, and the little monsters looked at the next door in fear for a while, and reluctantly dispersed.
Ye Jinbai kept looking out of the window, and he was relieved when the little monsters were gone. Just as he was about to thank him, the owner of the shop next door said, "I'll talk about it tomorrow if I have anything to do. Go to bed!" After speaking, he closed the window with a bang.
Ye Jinbai had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart. He looked down at the window, and the little monsters had dispersed. He was relieved and at the same time noticed the abnormality of this street—the group of little monsters made such a big fuss just now. Movement, the whole street is only the store next door heard the movement?
Moreover, in a busy street like Xieyang Street, why is there no one before twelve o'clock?Although he has a special physique and is easy to attract ghosts, he has never attracted so many little monsters at the same time, and this street may also have problems.
Also, why is the shopkeeper next door not surprised at the appearance of these little monsters, even accustomed to them, but these little monsters are still afraid of him?
Ye Jinbai was confused, took out the real estate transfer documents, and took out a piece of letter paper soaked in blood. The writing on it was completely covered by blood stains. Ye Jinbai looked at the light for a long time but couldn't tell what was on it. what was written.
Ye Jinbai regretted that he didn't ask clearly when he took over the shop.
A week ago, Ye Jinbai rescued an old demon who was dying and seriously ill. The other party gave him this shop before he died. Come and stay here.
He thought for a while and took out a very beautiful porcelain cup from the suitcase, put it on the table and packed it.
In the early morning of the second day, just as the door opened next door, Ye Jinbai came to pay a visit with a porcelain cup—judging from last night, the young shopkeeper next door was obviously not an ordinary person. He visited today to thank him last night The second is to understand what is going on in this street.
