hone, Lin Yanhuan's phone rang. The voice on the other end was very loud: "Report! We stormed a small building! Inside, inside there is a— ah!! Open fire!"Several loud noises came from the phone, and...My brother was taken aback. We've always kept a low profile in this line of work, only interacting with people within the industry. We haven't become famous enough for ordinary people to recognize us.

He kept a poker face as his abacus clicked furiously: "What Is there a discount for people with the surname Mu"

This statement seemed to throw the young lady off. She said a little awkwardly, “I just felt like I’d seen you before, so I casually asked… what are you having”

I sat down and was too lazy to move anymore. My brother ordered a grilled fish and two bowls of rice.

It's past ten o'clock, the summer night is bustling with people. Having a lakeside park in the city is considered a prime location. Besides young couples, many elderly and middle-aged people also like to come out for a stroll and enjoy the evening breeze.

"Brother, I feel like it's been a long time since I've just sat around leisurely waiting for a meal." Looking at the people around me, I suddenly felt that I had somehow unconsciously and in a daze crossed over a long period of time.

"You're pregnant, where do you have the time to be leisurely... Wait for me a moment." He got up and ran to the shop, grabbed two bottles of soy milk.

It's the kind of drink that comes in a long-necked glass bottle, basically found at every barbecue stall and street food vendor.

He poured it into a disposable cup and smiled, "Wait for it to cool down before you drink... Actually, if none of this had happened, our family would have been just like any other ordinary family."

"Drinking, gambling, doing small businesses, worrying about graduation, feeling lost about the future... But our family is destined to never be peaceful."

"I think it's good to be busy, as I don't have to worry about those trivial things. Besides, I feel pretty happy. Watching these ordinary people makes me feel a little superior, haha."

"Xia Qiao, if one day your husband walks the streets with you, eats hot pot with us, and celebrates the New Year together, wouldn't that be a funny sight" he said spontaneously.

I looked up at the night sky and felt that this scene was impossible.

Jiang Qiyun once stood with his hands behind his back on Mount Luofu, faintly saying that his term had a few hundred years left.

For a mortal, hundreds of years is like the ebb and flow of the sea.

Little Qiao, Little Qiao.

If the heart is free from attachment, a hundred years is but a fleeting moment.

If one's heart is burdened with worry, even a day feels unbearable.

His words, always like enchanting melodies, immerse me in their beauty.

As real as a dream, he made my nights and days transcend the three realms of yin and yang.

"Tsk...What does that woman want" My brother muttered under his breath, sounding a little annoyed.

My thoughts were pulled back, and following his direction, I saw the shop owner's daughter talking to her father, and she even looked over at us.

"Why don't we go somewhere else" My brother stood up and pulled me. "We can't even have a midnight snack in peace."

As we were about to leave, the shop owner hurried over to us and whispered, "Hey, don't rush off! I'll treat you to some late-night snacks. The grilled fish you ordered will be here soon!"

My brother gave him a glance: "You're offering help when there's nothing to do... We're not eating."

"No, no... Master Mu, I know your father! He said—"

"Then go find my dad, I'm busy." My brother didn't give him a chance to speak.

"But your dad said, now you're the one in charge! He's stepped back, ready to become a pro player!"

Professional player!

That old man is such a rascal, does he really have the guts to say that out loud

He spends all day battling a bunch of elementary school students! He even seems to have found a spiritual anchor for the rest of his life!

My brother said to me angrily, “I don't even have time to play games! That old geezer is too cunning! He's only in his forties and already wants to be a parasite and rely on me for support! Qiao, you have to say something to him!”

I said, was it useful Last time a little ghost came into the house, it was making a racket all over the place, couldn't stop him from his "rubbing" passion.

"Brother Mu, just spend a little time listening to me, I really can't find anyone to ask... I won't take up much of your time, consider it my plea, listen to me, if you help solve this matter, we will both offer our hands with thanks! Of course, we ordinary people can't give too much... Ten to eighty thousand, we can still scrape together." The shop owner looked at us with pleading eyes.

"Don't talk crap. This line of work is about fate, not money! Money can buy life" My brother replied impatiently.

Ordinary people and small business owners, their speech is often straightforward and pragmatic. The shop owner saw that my brother was unhappy, so he quickly apologized, saying that he was too vulgar. But he stubbornly stopped us from leaving.

With so many people watching, my brother had no choice but to hold back his temper and sit back down.

"Alright, what is it… let's hear it. If we're in the mood, we'll take it, if not, we won't." My brother said gruffly.

"Great! That's it…" The shop owner immediately pulled up a chair and sat down between us.

He is from a small village not far away, just a two-hour drive. Before the Spring Festival, his father caught a strange bird in the backyard. The bird's cry sounded like a human voice, which was very scary.

Other relatives who came to see it afterwards said that it would be very valuable, but the youngest daughter said that it might be a protected animal. If they were found by the forestry protection department, they would be sentenced.

His father was a little scared, so he thought about taking care of the strange bird until it healed and could fly away on its own.

But after a few days, the strange bird was seriously injured and died. Its father buried it on the back mountain, thinking that this matter would be over.

Soon, his father noticed that his youngest daughter was acting strangely. She would often stare at something with a sinister smile, then when called back to reality, she would seem normal again. She ate and slept as usual, showing no other signs of abnormality.

I knew right about then that something had taken over him.

My brother lazily asked, "How old are you, little girl Do you know your birthdate and zodiac sign"

"She's only twenty-eight this year, not married yet, working at the village committee... My dad is eighty this year." The store owner chuckled.

"Well, your dad's 52 and still letting your mom have kids," my brother teased.

The shopkeeper chuckled twice: “A fortune teller from our village came by, shaking his head the whole time and saying he was helpless. And if we went to hire him again, he flatly refused to come to our house, claiming his cultivation was too shallow and he dared not offend us.”

No way… What kind of thing is it that makes people afraid to provoke it

The shopkeeper whispered, "Our relatives from the old village don't dare associate with us anymore. My sister isn't just strange; she likes to eat weird things! Even insects! And the worst part is, my dad recently found out her belly has gotten bigger! It's simply impossible to live in the village anymore! My dad made me bring her to a big hospital for a check-up. The doctor said it wasn't pregnancy, but rather a giant tumor had grown inside her. However, he couldn't give a definite diagnosis, saying it was probably some kind of strange disease."

"Oh, and also, my sister makes these noises like '桀桀桀' or '姆姆姆' whenever she falls asleep... I was walking in the park and heard an old fisherman say that your family are all extraordinary people! So I came to you for help. We're practically neighbors, see Here's a picture of that weird bird—"

My brother rolled his eyes and said, "Look, look! You can't escape it once you've seen it!"

I rushed over and took a look, snatching the phone in disbelief.

This thing—always serious for no more than three minutes before bursting into laughter and delivering a cutting remark.My fellow disciple, it's been a while since you spoke. I feel a pang of concern. Are you ang...
