Chapter 20 Chen Shu and his neighbors
Arrived outside the house.
Looking at Chen Qin's busy figure, Chen Shu couldn't help but feel a wave of peace of mind.
The table was already filled with food at this time, with a wide variety of dishes, including eight dishes. In the middle, there was also a not-so-big cake.
Chen Qin makes it himself, but the appearance and taste are definitely no worse than those sold outside.
Just looking at it makes your index finger twitch.
Until this time.
Chen Shu was a little stunned.
Unconsciously, he has been in this world for eighteen years.
Eighteen years is really a long time.
It has been many years since his parents passed away, and sometimes Chen Shu even forgets about it.
Birthdays are celebrated every year, but this year they are surprisingly rich. I think I am eighteen.
Chen Qin is still so thoughtful.
"Brother, sit down quickly!"
"You are the protagonist today."
Chen Qin pulled Chen Shu to his seat with a bright smile, as if you didn't need to move at all today.
Chen Shu also let her pull him and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, our little cook."
Said.
He saw some tableware on the table and was startled: "Are there any guests at home today?"
"yes."
Chen Qin said a little embarrassedly: "It's your birthday today, and I don't have many friends, so I called my neighbors to have a good time together"
"Brother, is that okay?"
Chen Shu smiled and said, "Okay, okay."
Although we basically don't have much contact with each other, we can still see each other often. It's fate to live in the same building, and it's nothing to have a meal together.
Besides, since the death of my parents, there has been no liveliness in the house for a long time.
After all, my sister doesn't have such a temperament as me, and it's human nature to want to be more lively.
Hearing Chen Shu's response, Chen Qin suddenly smiled on his face.
"Okay, brother, sit down first, I'll call them!"
With that said, he ran out of the door in a hurry. Hearing the thumping footsteps coming from the corridor, Chen Shu couldn't help but smile.
Not long after.
"excuse me."
The one who walked in first was Grandma Zhang downstairs, who had moved in a few years ago.
It's just that she seems to have no children, and Chen Shu has never seen any of her descendants come to see her.
But thinking about living alone in this community at this age, even if he has children, he would be an unworthy descendant - speaking of it, he is also a pitiful person.
Chen Shu stood up and greeted her with a smile, asking her to sit down.
It took about five minutes.
All five households in the building gathered at Chen Shu's home.
Grandma Zhang lives on the first floor.
Sister Wang who lives next door.
A master and apprentice pair lived on the third floor.
Brother Bai lives on the fourth floor.
They had met each other on weekdays. Although it was a bit strange to be together, Chen Shu didn't think it mattered since his sister opened her mouth.
The last person to arrive was Sister Wang from next door. She was a delicate-looking woman, but her body was a bit mutilated and she came with a cane.
The strangest thing is the pair of masters and apprentices living on the third floor. Both of them are bald and dressed as monks. The younger one is not very old. He looks like he is seventy or eight years old, while the older one is in his sixties or seventies. look.
There are not many monks in this era. People who practice this way can more easily invite the Buddha to take over the body. Those who practice deeply are like living Buddhas in the world, and can even bring out the true body of the great Buddha, with extremely powerful strength.
For example, there are many temples and Taoist temples in the city. In fact, they have gradually become professional, which is not surprising.
The strange thing is that the two masters and apprentices do not live in the temple, but rent in the southern suburbs.
After everyone is seated, turn on the lights.
There was no wine, so everyone had juice instead. After the formal clinking of glasses, the meal began.
Several people didn't talk much, especially Sister Wang and Brother Bai, who basically didn't talk. Only Grandma Zhang, sister, and the master and apprentice pair talked more.
"Xiaoqin's cooking skills are getting better and better..."
“This cooking skill is almost as good as that of Lingchu Hotel”
"Hey, it's just so-so."
"Sister, sister, when I grow up, can I marry you? Then I can have food like this every day."
The little novice monk raised his head and said with wide eyes.
Chen Qin smiled and said, "Let's wait until you grow up."
“Yummy, yummy, so delicious!”
“It’s so delicious!”
Brother Bai suddenly spoke, but his voice became louder and louder.
"Brother Bai, please be quiet while eating."
The disabled Sister Wang seemed taller than everyone else when she was sitting, but once she opened her mouth, Brother Bai never dared to say anything again.
Chen Shu only felt weird, but he looked at everything in front of him with a smile on his face, and he was also a little happy in his heart - the long-lost excitement made people seem to forget their loneliness.
"Dong dong dong..."
At this moment.
There was a knock on the door.
There was silence at the dinner table.
"I'll open the door"
Chen Shu said something and walked to the door.
Opening the door, there were two people standing outside, both "acquaintances".
One is Zhang Teng, and the other is the goddess Liu Huo from the neurological office whom I met yesterday.
Chen Shu didn't show any surprise on his face, as if he had expected it.
"Chen Shu?"
Liu Huo was the first to speak: "Hello, I am Shensuo Liu Huan. We have investigated that there is a shadowy evil spirit in the southern suburbs. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to help us with your eyes."
"Of course, this is paid. We will absolutely guarantee your safety, and there will also be certain financial subsidies."
Liu Huo is obviously a resolute person, which can be seen from the fact that she turned around and arrested Zhang Teng. The same was true at this time. Zhang Teng was not given a chance to intervene at all, and he acted businesslike.
"OK."
Chen Shu nodded.
He had already known that they would come through her conversation with Zhang Teng before. He even knew everything about their treatment and had already made plans in his heart.
go.
why are you not going.
As long as safety can be guaranteed, Chen Shu is not resistant to such things.
Besides...they gave too much.
Besides, maybe the Soul Resurrection Book can also provide some small surprises.
"good."
Liu Huo was a little surprised, but she nodded quickly: "Someone will pick you up in the evening, and someone will contact you later about the treatment issue."
"I won't bother you for now."
Finished.
She turned around and left without hesitation.
Not long after leaving the house, Zhang Teng asked in confusion:
"Sister Liu, didn't you say we still want to talk about treatment? There are also divine objects..."
At this time, Zhang Teng discovered that Liu Huo's body was trembling slightly. Under the dim light, his face was as pale as a piece of white paper, and he could see sweat dripping on his forehead, as if he had just recovered from the cold. Like being fished out of the water.
Zhang Teng was shocked: "Sister Liu, are you okay?"
But he heard Liu Huo say tremblingly: "Don't ask, don't look back, go, go forward!"
Zhang Teng trembled when he heard this, but he did not dare to speak anymore.
It wasn't until she walked thousands of meters away and got into the car that Liu Hua seemed to let out a long sigh of relief. She slumped in the car, feeling that her hands and feet were weak and weak, and her back was soaked with cold sweat.
The same is true for the Lion Spirit God in her body. He still has the posture of the King of Beasts, curling up like a puppy.
"Who is this Chen Shu...?"
Liu Hua's heart was like a tsunami. Why were there so many powerful beings gathered in an ordinary two-bedroom apartment? !
Are you still celebrating his birthday? !
Just the look in their eyes almost made her collapse!
And inside the house.
Chen Shu looked at the family, smiled and said, "Keep eating, keep eating."
"Just a little thing."
"Also, Xiaoqin, I just want to tell you about going to school in Shanghai. This is a good opportunity, you can't miss it..."
The protagonist is not a psychopath
