Chapter 27 Making a deal
Qin Peiyu did not answer Xia Yanqi's words and took out a square jade tablet as big as a thumb from his stomach.
She handed the jade token to Xia Yanqi and said, "It's dawn, please put her in."
Xia Yanqi hurriedly took the jade token and pointed it at the girl, asking, "Do you want to recite a spell? What's the quick appearance of the spirit?"
Qin Peiyu said: "No, close your eyes, feel her presence carefully, and then guide her."
Xia Yanqi closed her eyes quickly, feeling darkness in front of her eyes and didn't feel anything. She patiently tried to slow down her breathing according to Qin Peiyu's instructions, and a small light appeared in front of her in the darkness.
The light is very small, not much bigger than the needle hole, it is not bright, but it is very conspicuous in the darkness. However, before Xia Yanqi could see it clearly, the white light disappeared in an instant.
Xia Yanqi hurriedly opened her eyes, and the girl was still standing there without any change.
Xia Yan said to Qin Peiyu in a daze: "I can only see a little white light."
"Come again."
Xia Yanqi closed her eyes again.
After a few times, she said in a frustration: "No, it's still the same."
Qin Peiyu said, "Then come again next time." After saying that, he waved his claws gently, and the girl floated into the jade tablet like a burst of blue smoke.
As soon as the girl disappeared, the whole street instantly changed from black to white. Before the street lights were turned off, the skylight had turned white. Not far away, the sound of cars driving, the shouts of breakfast shops, and the hurried pace of people who were getting up early to work and exercising.
The fireworks on earth are nothing more than this.
Yan Jing also wanted to go back to Chenghuang Temple, and said goodbye to several people and stopped a car to leave. The people were all tired. Lu Bingqian was worried about Xia Shiyuan's health, so he decided to go home to rest after asking.
Xia Yanqi followed Xia Shiyuan into the room. Xia Yanbo was sitting on the sofa in the living room wearing pajamas and didn't know what he was thinking. When he saw how many people came back, he was obviously relieved.
Xia Shiyuan put the breakfast he bought downstairs on the coffee table and asked as if nothing had happened: "Dad, do you get up so early?"
Xia Yanbo stood up and twisted his waist, teasing, "I'm old and I'm young, okay, you can come back, I'll go change my clothes and run."
Xia Yanqi simply washed up and lay on the bed. The air conditioner was not turned on in her room, so quiet that she could hear her heartbeat.
She rolled around for a few times, her eyes were so achy that it hurt, but she still couldn't sleep. The jade token was placed on the bedside table. She turned around and could see it. She sat up and put the jade token in her palm and observed it carefully.
The jade plaque is square, full of water color, with the word "peace" engraved in the middle, and the word "circumscribed" is surrounded by a very complex pattern, like the branches of a certain plant, or like some emblem or totem.
The jade tablet is smooth and gentle all over, and I think it is often played with by people.
Xia Yanqi couldn't understand it after tossing and the cold jade token became warm in her hands. She thought about it and got up and changed into a sportswear.
The living room was quiet, and a black kitten was squatting on the sofa and watching Xia Yanqi.
Xia Yanqi felt a little guilty and walked to Qin Peiyu to sit down, saying nothing, "Don't you go and rest for a while? It's quite hot today, hahaha..."
She laughed dryly under the speechless eyes of the black cat.
Qin Peiyu took out his cell phone and typed a few words and handed it to her.
[Want to find her parents?]
Xia Yanqi nodded and explained: "City a has been developing quite fast over the years. I am a little worried that her parents will move out or leave."
[She has a deep relationship with her parents and can be easily found by following the mark on her soul.]
Xia Yanqi sat cross-legged on the sofa, unconsciously clenched his fingers, and after a while, he said in a low tone: "Am I quite stupid? I can't help Xiaohai or her."
Qin Peiyu rarely comforts others, and Xia Yanyue is a bad-tempered person. The two of them often quarrel when they communicate. She thought about it before typing.
[Do you want to check out her parents' current situation?]
That girl should be very interested in knowing about her parents' daily life.
"Is it OK? Will it disturb them?"
[Secretly take a look.]
Xia Yanqi squinted his eyes and responded, then hurriedly ran back to the room to pack up a small bag, left a note for his family, and went out with Qin Peiyu with a jade tag.
As soon as she got on the taxi, Xia Yanqi was confused. She didn't know where the girl's home was.
Qin Peiyu relied on them to sit in the back seat, and the driver in the front row could not see it, so he typed and told Xia Yanqi.
"Where do you go?" The front driver saw that Xia Yanqi didn't say anything for a long time and asked.
Xia Yanqi said hurriedly: "Xishan District..."
The car parked at the entrance of an old community. After getting off the car, Qin Peiyu took the lead. Although Xia Yanqi was not sure about it, he still followed her tightly.
The community is open and there is no doorman, so Xia Yanqi can easily enter.
On the left side of the community are some physical exercise equipment, and there is a ping-pong table. On the right is a small circular flower bed. The edge of the flower bed is covered with ceramic tiles. There are several elderly people sitting on it. They are watching a few children who are two or three years old running and playing, while their parents are having a break.
At the bottom of the flower bed, a middle-aged and elderly woman sat alone. She was wearing a half-old yellow dress and a pair of cheap plastic slippers. Her slightly long hair was already a little gray and was scattered randomly.
She looked at the playful children with unsightly eyes, as if her soul had been drained and her soul was left with a dry body.
Even if Qin Peiyu didn't point it out, Xia Yanqi could clearly feel that she was the girl's mother.
Xia Yanqi hurriedly found a place that was not eye-catching to sit down, then pretended to play with her phone, but actually looked at her secretly.
As the weather grew, the weather became hotter and hotter. It was already lunch time, and the others gradually left. The old man was stunned for a long time, and as if he had just reacted, he slowly got up and walked into the community.
Xia Yanqi also quickly followed.
There was an iron door at the entrance of the corridor, which the old man did not close when he entered, but made Xia Yanqi enter easily.
The old community has only six floors and no elevator is installed. The cement stairs are a little uneven and the white walls are mottled and black. The old man walked very slowly, and Xia Yanxi followed silently through the steps.
"Click."
The sound of the door opening.
"Bang."
The sound of closing the door.
Xia Yanqi stood at the door, holding his hand up and wondering if he should knock on the door.
In the end, I could only leave step by step and three times.
She didn't walk far away, and sat down at the place where she could see the stairs downstairs. Fortunately, the community was well green and she didn't suffer that she was covered by shade.
"What should I do? Am I just sitting here for a day?"
The little black cat sat upright next to her and ignored her.
Who made you so active?
Xia Yanqi slapped and was about to leave, but thinking about the jade token in the bag, she sighed and sat down, and then ordered a takeaway for herself.
Fortunately, she brought the power bank. After playing the game for an afternoon, Xia Yanqi twisted her neck and looked upstairs.
The sunset blushed in the sky, and the people returning home gradually began to rush home. Xia Yanqi stood up and walked two steps, asking Qin Peiyu: "What should she do if she doesn't seem to go out? This place is quite far from the Chenghuang Temple, and it will take nearly an hour to take a taxi."
Qin Peiyu waved her claws and told her to be calm, but Xia Yanqi had no choice but to sit down again.
Street lights light up and night falls.
Qin Peiyu gently pointed at the jade token, and a wisp of green smoke floated out. The girl stood so gracefully in front of Xia Yanqi, which scared her.
She smiled at Xia Yanqi: "I saw my mother today, thank you."
Xia Yanqi waved his hand quickly and said with a humble mouth: "It's nothing, that's it, do you want to go up and see her?"
The girl looked up at the still dark window and said indifferently: "So what if you see it, she can't see me."
A tall and thin old man ran over from a distance with a full of vegetables in his hands, passed by Xia Yanqi, and passed through the girl's body.
Xia Yanqi was shocked when he saw this scene so close, but fortunately he didn't scream.
The man seemed to feel something, ran two steps and turned around and looked at Xia Yanqi in astonishment.
Xia Yanqi smiled apologetically at him.
The man's originally shiny eyes gradually became darker. He reluctantly smiled at Xia Yanqi before hurriedly leaving and entering the corridor.
Xia Yanqi wanted to comfort the girl, but saw the girl looking at the man's back as she left with tears in her face.
"What, what's wrong?"
Xia Yanqi was rushing to find a small bag, and found a pack of wrinkled handkerchiefs from it, but then she thought that she could not touch the real thing, so she was in a dilemma for a moment.
The girl smiled and shook her head, "That's my dad."
Just now, she seemed to have met her father's heart, so bitter and so tired.
She gritted her teeth and held back her tears, and then knelt in front of Qin Peiyu.
Xia Yanqi was startled and wanted to help her, but she couldn't touch her body.
The girl said, "I am the only daughter. I have been tired for so many years. My parents are so worried about me. Even if I go to the eighteenth level of hell, I can't let them go. I beg you, can you let me meet them?" She begged, "Even if I don't speak, just meet them!"
Qin Peiyu looked at her coldly, and the girl became more and more desperate, but she heard Qin Peiyu say coldly: [You are a ghost, you can help you, but you must keep all your abilities in the jade tablet.]
