"Yeah," Jiu Po nodded in agreement with Wu Xin's words.
Being away for eight years is a new record.
She didn't ask Wu Xin where she had been during the past eight years.
She seems to be used to this.
Wu Xin: "Are the steamed buns delicious?".
"It's sour," Jiupo responded with a small swallow.
Wuxin suddenly remembered: "By the way, I've been carrying this bun in my arms for several days."
"But it shouldn't kill anyone, so just make do with it."
"oh".
After a few words, the room fell into silence again, with only the sound of Jiu Po's chewing.
"Do you want to eat it?" Jiu Po asked, taking out a bun.
Wu Xin shook his head: "Forget it, if you can't eat people to death, you might eat ghosts to death."
"oh".
Jiu Po stuffed the bun into his mouth.
After she finished eating, she wiped her mouth and poured herself a cup of cool tea.
After having enough tea and food, she said abruptly:
"You are hurt?".
Wuxin smiled bitterly: "I still can't hide it from you."
Jiu Po pointed at his almost transparent body: "Do you need... to hide it?".
Wuxin lowered his head and looked at himself: "Tsk, I've been pretending to be a human being outside, but when I got home, I suddenly relaxed and forgot to cover up a little. This looks so embarrassing."
"The whole body is almost transparent, the Yin Qi has dispersed, and the soul is not far away."
"I broke an arm when I came back last time, and this time it's much heavier than last time."
"Sorry for scaring you".
Jiupo Yunke: "I... thought you were about to die."
Wu Xin couldn't help but take action immediately after hearing this, and rubbed her head with both hands:
"You girl, can you expect me to order something good?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't know how to laugh because you are so talkative. Why are you so arrogant?"
"It took a lot of effort to get back, but all my expectations were in vain."
Jiu Po: "You...have no intention."
He sighed helplessly: "Actually...you don't need to remind me of this. It's very hurtful."
Jiu Po: "You...are not a human being."
Wu Xin: "............".
The next day Jiu Po left the place where she had stayed for eight years.
The Jingluo courtyard was covered with autumn red and fallen leaves, which Jiu Po had deliberately left behind and not cleaned.
She likes the atmosphere of falling leaves accumulating and displaying the beauty of autumn.
The door to the courtyard was gently closed by her. She would never come back to this place again.
Click...lock.
Wu Xin asked: "Are you sure you want to go? In fact, you don't need to follow me."
"Jiupo, you are a human being, and you are also a strange person among people. You have magic that others do not have."
"If you enter the world, you can achieve peak fame with just a little exposure, be sought after by tens of millions of people, and be worshiped by millions of people."
"Born with differences, one's life is destined to be extraordinary."
"I have met and known several people. They are similar to you, but they are born with great differences, and they are aliens among the world."
"They are well aware of their own uniqueness and their destiny. They have successfully made themselves an outlier by virtue of their great differences."
After speaking unintentionally, he looked at Jiu Po who had just turned around.
His attention swept over the totem on Jiu Po's upper left face and left ear.
"And Jiupo, you are just the opposite. You have nine magical totems, and you have abilities that others cannot imagine, but you are silent in the world, never famous, and never cause disputes."
"Perhaps your sense of existence is weaker than that of the world."
"If I disappear that day, who can remember you? Who do you care about? Where should you go?".
Unintentional words are exactly what I am thinking about.
These three questions are undoubtedly the most essential doubts, and they also highlight Jiu Po's problem.
Jiu Po is different from ordinary people, but what makes her different is not her ability or achievements, but her weird personality and temperament.
In the past few years, the people Jiupo has come into contact with are more or less outstanding people. Whether it is the handsome young master or the knights, no one can make her take a second look.
There are no relatives or friends.
Jiupo seems to be born with no feelings for others, and she has almost no sense of belonging to the same kind of people.
Sometimes I really wonder if Jiupo was raised crookedly unintentionally.
Wu Xin probably knows some very different people.
Jiu Po is actually very similar to those very different people, but through unintentional parenting and teaching, Jiu Po became what she is now.
Dull, cold, speechless, expressionless, emotionless.
Even if he had no intention of leaving for eight years, she would still stay where he was and wait for him, without being impatient or impatient.
What if I accidentally leave for a day and never come back?
Will she spend her whole life waiting?
Faced with Wu Xin's questions, Jiu Po only responded with one sentence.
She asked back: "Will you tell me...before you disappear...and never come back?".
Wuxin patted her head: "Yes, I will definitely".
"I'll tell you, don't wait for me anymore".
Jiu Po hummed: "Well...then I won't...won't wait for you anymore."
...........
One person and one ghost set out again,
Wu Xin's injury this time was more serious than before. In his words, it would take a year or two to heal.
Wuxin no longer shows up in the eyes of the world and follows Jiupo as a ghost.
Jiu Po had no intention of taking her into the world when he was a toddler. This time it was Jiu Po's turn to take her into the world.
After traveling around the world for half a year, they stopped in a remote village.
This village is called Youjiacun, and it has a small population.
The main reason they stopped here was that there was a ghost problem here.
Jiu Po came here as a ghost exorcist sent by the county government.
As soon as they arrived, a group of people were waiting at the entrance of the village. When they saw Jiupo, they greeted him enthusiastically:
"grown ups".
Seeing that the visitor was a small and thin girl, the expressions of the group gradually cooled down, thinking that they had welcomed the wrong person.
"Hey, why is this a child?".
"Brother, are you not mistaken? Didn't it say that the master sent to exorcise ghosts will arrive in the next few days?"
"Yes, it should be the past two days, but why is it a child?"
"Probably not, I'll ask first and then tell you."
There was a lot of discussion, and it was not until Jiu Po took out the documents given by the county government that they became quiet. .
A simple man among this group of people took the lead in greeting him: "You Da, the head of Youjia Village, has met you."
"Your Excellency has come a long way, and you must be tired from the bumpy journey. Youda has already asked you to prepare meals, and please have a full stomach and rest first."
There are still many people in the crowd who are skeptical of Jiu Po, and the fact that a little girl came to exorcise ghosts is just a joke.
Jiu Po was stunned for a moment, then squatted on the ground, picked up a wooden stick and started writing quickly.
Within a few days, the next line was written: "If you are not hungry, you will be the first to be a ghost."
"Please be sure to tell me the whole story first."
This is a way of speaking that Wu Xin came up with for her.
She usually talks very little.
His speech is also intermittent, and incomplete information can make people anxious to death.
Since you can't say it with your mouth, you should be able to write it down.
Although she doesn't write many words, she speaks much better than her.
pS: And.........
