Xia Dongqing's face was as pale as paper and she stared blankly outside the store.
"Brother Ye, the color of those lanterns has changed, am I not dazzled?"
His voice was trembling and he was scared.
"It's really not dazzling, I saw it too."
Ye Xiao replied with a solemn expression.
The strange changes outside the store clearly meant that something bad was about to happen.
Logically speaking.
He is not Xia Dongqing with yin and yang eyes. Even if a ghost appears, he won't be able to see it.
But for now.
He saw the white lantern.
This is definitely a ghost affecting the surrounding environment.
This just shows.
Later, powerful ghosts may appear, or ghosts with special abilities!
The more he thought about it, the more Ye Xiao felt a bad feeling in his heart.
This is the first day of working the night shift at convenience store No. 444. Have you encountered something very unclean?
What bad luck!
However, he remained completely calm.
Don't panic when things happen, problems can always be solved.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Then, the sound of crying filled the sky, resounding in the ears of Ye Xiao and Xia Dongqing.
Take a closer look.
You can also see a group of men, women and children wearing sackcloth and mourning near the store.
They kept crying and crying loudly, with yellow paper scattered in their hands.
These are the first two people.
One person holds a spiritual tablet.
Another person held a dark photo.
In the photo, there is an old man who looks kind and amiable.
Just the next second.
Something extremely strange happened.
The old man in the dark photo seemed to have seen Xia Dongqing and Ye Xiao, and actually smiled at them.
Saw such a scene.
"Thumping!"
Ye Xiao and Xia Dongqing felt as if their hearts were rising to their throats.
"Brother Ye, you're right! The old man in this photo is smiling at both of us..."
Xia Dongqing's face turned pale.
"Don't talk, keep your head down, and be silent. If you encounter this kind of funeral procession, if you point fingers and do some disrespectful things, you may cause trouble."
Ye Xiao warned, but he was also very uneasy inside.
The smile of the old man in the dark photo gave him goosebumps all over his body.
Xia Dongqing lowered his head silently and said nothing, but fear and panic kept spreading in his heart.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The heart-wrenching, heart-wrenching cries gradually faded away.
The two of them also breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.
a long time.
When they looked up again, they could see that the hazy fog outside gradually dissipated, and at the same time, the hanging lanterns also turned into red lanterns one after another.
"Gone, gone."
Xia Dongqing felt relieved, and seemed to be exhausted and exhausted. He collapsed on the ground like a puddle of mud.
Ye Xiao was so nervous just now that cold sweat broke out on his palms.
And now.
The crisis is finally over.
He finally regained his composure.
However, he was very sorry.
It was 12 o'clock in the morning at convenience store No. 444. Why did the weird scene just happen?
in his impression.
There is no such scene in "Soul Ferry".
Is it because of the chain reaction caused by investors' involvement?
In other words, because of him, Xia Dongqing became the night attendant of convenience store No. 444 ahead of schedule.
When thinking about these.
Ye Xiao is also leaning towards the latter.
At this time, Xia Dongqing came back to her senses.
It seemed that Brother Ye could also see those dirty things just now.
Is it possible that Brother Ye also has yin and yang eyes?
Thinking of this, he hesitated and said, "Brother Ye, can you also see ghosts?"
"Ghost? I can't see it right now. If I can see it, it means that the ghost itself is very extraordinary."
Ye Xiao explained.
He said this.
But it also made his personal image become unfathomable in Xia Dongqing's heart.
This college dormitory friend is not a simple person.
Moreover, Ye Xiao at this moment seemed both familiar and strange to Xia Dongqing.
"Didi!"
At exactly this moment, a very rapid car horn honked outside the store.
Take a look outside the store.
You can see a new black jeep coming suddenly.
"Crunch!"
The door of the jeep was opened.
Stepping out of this brand new car was a handsome, well-proportioned mature man wearing a fashionable black leather coat with a slicked back hairdo.
He put his hands in the pockets of his black leather pants and walked swaggeringly towards the convenience store.
As soon as he saw the visitor, a line of text popped up in Ye Xiao's mind.
Soul ferryman, Zhao Li!
The honest and fawning Xia Dongqing also recovered from the weird atmosphere not long ago. He quickly put on a smile and stepped forward to say hello proactively, "Welcome, guest, is there anything I can help you with?" ?”
His attitude was enthusiastic.
but.
However, Zhao Li didn't even pay attention to Xia Dongqing, but went to find something on the counter of the convenience store.
in a blink.
He chose his target and took a can of beer and a bag of Drunken Peanuts.
"Crack!"
Official Zhao directly pulled up the easy-pull ring of the beer can with his big hands.
time.
A faint aroma of wine wafted directly from the can.
Faced with such a scene, Xia Dongqing's face darkened, but he did not get angry, but showed a patient side, "Guest, I can understand your desire to drink, but you are driving a car and drinking. Don’t drive, don’t drink while driving. Besides, these beer cans haven’t even been processed at the cashier yet!”
"Bang bang!"
But Zhao Li ignored it, tore open the vacuum plastic bag of Drunkard Peanuts, and chewed the Drunkard Peanuts.
"Not bad! Beer and peanuts are a classic and perfect pairing that will never go out of style!"
He praised.
Xia Dongqing gritted her teeth and her face darkened.
Even though he had a good temper, the behavior of Official Zhao in front of him made him very angry.
"Dan Dingdian, I know you and him. You are the night shift waiters at convenience store No. 444."
Zhao Li explained slowly, "And I - am your boss!!!"
"boss?"
What Zhao Li said.
Xia Dongqing was shocked and couldn't believe it!
Is this person in front of me the boss?
Convenience store owner No. 444?
"Why don't you believe it?"
Zhao Li narrowed his eyes slightly and pointed at the staff list in the store next to him.
Xia Dongqing turned around and took a look.
You can see the names of colleagues one after another on the staff list.
There is Brother Ye and him up there.
At the top of the staff list, there is only one name - Zhao Li, but no photo.
"Are you the boss, Li Zhao?"
Xia Dongqing frowned and said.
"Replacement guaranteed."
Zhao Li replied, still eating peanuts and drinking beer.
"Is it possible that you think I will be an employee of this convenience store? Don't be kidding me. With my car and my outfit, how can I be the attendant of a convenience store?!"
Suddenly, Zhao Li asked a question.
Xia Dongqing nodded dully, yes, Zhao Li was indeed dressed like a boss.
At this time, Officer Zhao glanced back and forth at the two employees, Xia Dongqing and Ye Xiao, and said nonchalantly, "Xia Dongqing, Ye Jiang! Do you know that you are in trouble?" Got it!"
He said this.
Ye Xiao and Xia Dongqing looked at each other. They didn't seem to be in any trouble!
"Don't believe me. Did you see anything dirty not long ago?"
Zhao Li continued.
As soon as this statement came out.
Both of them had an earth-shattering feeling.
Li Zhao was really right.
They just encountered a ghost.
It seemed like a group of ghosts.
A group of ghosts attending funerals and attending funerals.
Also, the old man smiled at them in Mingzhao.
Ye Xiao looked surprised and didn't say anything. He was also thinking about what Li Zhao was playing.
"what should we do?"
Xia Dongqing asked hurriedly, believing what Li Zhao said, and he also felt that the owner of convenience store No. 444 was very extraordinary.
"Spend money to eliminate disasters. Buy a peace charm to keep you safe and not get caught in dirty things."
Officer Zhao replied with a solemn expression and took out two peace charms from his pocket.
Rather than saying it is a peace charm, it is better to say that it is two pieces of yellow paper.
There are various pictures of cows, ghosts and snakes drawn on the yellow paper, which are completely incomprehensible and unpredictable.
"How much do these two peace charms cost?"
Xia Dongqing seemed a little moved.
"Young and old people are not deceived. One peace talisman costs 1,888 yuan, and two peace talismans only cost 2,888 yuan. You can't buy it for 2,888 yuan and suffer a loss, and you can't be fooled."
Official Zhao looked at Xia Dongqing sincerely.
"Hiss!"
Xia Dongqing took a breath of cold air and felt that the price was too expensive!
Even Ye Xiao on the side felt that Zhao Li was deceiving people?
"I have no money, I can't afford it."
Xia Dongqing shook his head, let alone 2888 yuan, he had 288 yuan in his pocket now but he couldn't even get it out.
The last few days.
He has been living with Brother Ye eating instant noodles.
"It's okay. Working in my convenience store pays 3,000 yuan a month, so you can advance one month's salary!"
Zhao Li replied with a smile and seemed to be in a good mood.
"This, this, this..."
Xia Dongqing felt entangled in her heart. As a promising young man influenced by the new era, he believed in science and that technology was the primary productive force.
】
But his pair of yin and yang eyes were telling him every moment.
The world is not as simple as he imagined.
There are ghosts in this world!
"Buy it! It will overdraft my salary!"
Ye Xiao was the first to speak. In terms of money, to him, it was just an external possession, and he didn't care much.
at the moment.
In this silver-level investment world [soul].
The first thing to consider is to stay alive!
And if you want to survive, you don't have to consider whether you have enough meals, but you have to consider those all-pervasive ghosts, but be sure not to find them!
"Hahaha! So happy!"
Official Zhao was smiling and in a good mood. He casually made the charm and sold it for a price that satisfied him.
on the spot.
Instead, Officer Zhao took out a hundred-dollar bill, a ten-dollar bill, and two one-dollar coins from the cash register and gave them to Ye Xiao.
"Well, you've already overdrawn your salary for a month, so you have to work hard for me!"
Official Zhao spoke carelessly.
Suddenly, he was even closer to Ye Xiao's ear, and whispered, "Be careful, don't die easily! Otherwise, I will suffer a big loss!"
When he said this, Ye Xiao frowned slightly.
Could it be that Zhao Li, the soul ferryman, saw something?
Or could it be that Official Zhao, who had always acted as he pleased, was joking with him?
Before he could think too much.
Zhao Li spat out a strong breath of alcohol.
"Ye Jiang, do you want to eat it? This drunken peanut tastes really good!"
Official Zhao handed the remaining half bag of Drunkard's Peanuts to Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao took it and chewed it slowly.
"You two, take a good look at the store, I'll take the first step!"
Zhao Li drank the remaining beer in the beer can and threw the beer can directly into the trash can in the store, and then he was ready to leave.
"Boss, you drank beer. If you drive, you will be driving under the influence..."
Xia Dongqing quickly stepped forward to persuade.
"Don't worry, it's okay. Those police officers can't control me! Because - I'm a police officer too! I'm also on duty!"
Zhao Li said with a playful smile.
"On errand? Aren't you the owner of convenience store No. 444?"
Xia Dongqing's face was confused.
"You're stupid! I'm working as an errand in the underworld! Does the underworld understand? I'm - a ghost errand!"
Suddenly, Zhao Li rolled his eyes at Xia Dongqing angrily, and then said with a serious expression.
Underworld?
Ghost error?
These unfamiliar words made Xia Dongqing feel that cold sweat was breaking out on her spine and bones, and her body was trembling slightly.
"scared?"
Zhao Li narrowed his eyes and replied.
Xia Dongqing's frown quickly relaxed.
"Boss, you are drunk."
He spoke firmly, thinking that Mr. Zhao might not be a good drinker, so he just drank a can of beer and started talking drunkenly.
"Hahaha!"
Zhao Li laughed and walked away.
However, watching his figure leave, Xia Dongqing's eyes suddenly widened.
He just noticed a bulge in Zhao Li's waist, and the bulge looked like a gun.
Carrying a firearm.
Could it be that the owner of convenience store No. 444 has another unknown identity - an undercover police officer?
Boss Zhao is carrying out secret missions with humiliation and humiliation, maybe to deal with those criminals, and is Boss Zhao looking so casual to relax the vigilance of those criminals?
If you say so.
Isn’t this convenience store No. 444 an information exchange station?
…
Xia Dongqing used his rich imagination and told Ye Xiao about these findings in detail.
"This...can't be some kind of police undercover! No way, this boss Zhao is really a ghost from the underworld!"
Ye Xiao said with a serious expression.
However, he was still thinking about the strange scene at 12 o'clock in the morning.
A group of funeral people, weeping men, women and children, spiritual tablets and shadows...
This is a funeral in progress.
It just seems like something is missing.
suddenly.
A strange color flashed in Ye Xiao's eyes.
He came to his senses.
This funeral was missing a coffin.
There should be a coffin with the old man's body lying in the coffin, or there should be someone holding an urn containing the old man's ashes.
However, there was neither a coffin nor an urn.
"Ghosts from the underworld, this is impossible!"
Xia Dongqing's face turned pale, and she felt that what happened tonight was really bizarre.
Now, he is looking forward to getting off work as soon as possible.
Ye Xiao said no more and gave one of the peace charms to Xia Dongqing.
After taking the Peace Talisman, Xia Dongqing said quickly, "Brother Ye, regarding this Peace Talisman, if my salary is paid by then, I will give you the money."
"Both of us, don't be so clear about it. We're just a peace charm, right?"
Ye Xiao waved his hand, showing that he regarded money as dirt. Fortunately, this was a thing brought out by Zhao Li. Otherwise, whoever buys the peace charm will be taken advantage of.
He said this.
Xia Dongqing was moved in her heart.
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye it was daylight.
The old employees arrived, Xia Dongqing and Ye Xiao left the store and returned to their residence.
After washing up, the two of them fell down on the bed and prepared to fall asleep.
They were so sleepy that their left and right eyelids were fighting.
Xia Dongqing had already fallen asleep first.
Ye Xiao, on the other hand, checked the profit and loss status of the investment stock Ye Jiang currently controlled.
[Real-time settlement investment stocks - [Soul] Ye Jiang]
[Investment amount: 10,000 trillion amethyst]
[Record of investment stock profit and loss events]
[Become an employee of convenience store No. 444 and make a profit of 0.1 trillion Amethyst]
[Encountered a strange funeral and lost 0.1 trillion amethyst]
[Seeing the smile of the old man in Mingzhao, his life is in danger, and he loses 10,000 trillion amethyst]
[Get Zhao Li’s peace talisman and make a profit of 10,000 trillion amethyst]
[Real-time profit and loss: 0]
"Hoo ho!"
In an instant, Ye Xiao let out a long sigh of relief.
He really didn't expect that the peace charm given to him by Boss Zhao, Li Li, was definitely of great use, and actually made him a profit of 10,000 trillion amethysts.
Without this peace talisman, he would currently be at a loss.
That's like now.
Real-time profit and loss 0.
It was all just a false alarm.
While thinking about this, Ye Xiao also subconsciously picked up the peace charm with pictures of cows, ghosts, and snakes.
Just after careful observation.
His brows were knitted tightly. The Peace Talisman was originally a complete piece, but a small corner of ashes appeared in the upper left corner as if due to spontaneous combustion.
"I'm afraid...this peace charm can protect me for a while, but it cannot protect me for the rest of my life."
Ye Xiao's expression was solemn.
I just feel that the potential danger is far from being completely eliminated!
Right now, he is only temporarily safe!
