Chapter 87 Travel through time and space, try your best
"Hello, this is your meal. I wish you a pleasant meal."
In a KFC restaurant on Zhongcheng Road, Chu Qing, who was standing at the front desk wearing a staff uniform, brought the dinner plate in his hand to a girl.
After the girl took it, she asked a little embarrassedly: "Brother, can I add your vx?"
"I'm sorry, guest, it's working time now. If the manager finds out doing this kind of thing, my salary will be deducted."
Chu Qing said apologetically through the transparent mask.
"It's okay, it's okay, excuse me." The girl was thin-skinned after all, so she ran away in a panic while holding the dinner plate.
Seeing her running away, Chu Qing couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
"Brother Qing, please go and take a rest. I'll take your place." A colleague who seemed to have rested said to Chu Qing while wearing employee uniform.
"Okay." Chu Qing smiled.
Back in the locker room, Chu Qing took off his employee uniform and stood in front of the window, watching the heads of people as small as black ants coming and going below. Occasionally, he could see a few 'ants' of different colors bumping into Chu Qing's sight. , and crashed out again.
Chu Qing looked a little dazed, not knowing what he was thinking.
"You kid, are you using me as a shield again?"
At this time, the door of the dressing room was opened, and a tall figure wearing a suit came in.
Chu Qing looked back and said with a smile, "Hello, Manager Li."
Li Ruoxian waved his hand, walked to Chu Qing's side, held a cigarette in his mouth, and handed another one to Chu Qing, "Want one?"
Chu Qing shook his head: "I'm only eighteen, I don't know how to smoke."
"Ah, yes, you are only eighteen." Hearing this, Li Ruoxian took back the cigarette case in his hand, "But looking at your usual appearance, you really don't look eighteen."
"It's always a good thing to learn something early."
"Indeed." Li Ruoxian nodded in agreement.
"I heard from the front desk that the girl who asked you for a vx this time is very nice. Why did you still refuse?"
"What, am I here at KFC or Cowherd's?" Chu Qing said angrily.
"Hey, you can't say that," Li Ruoxian laughed, "If it's really a Cowherd's shop, I'll break your legs if you don't accept customers."
"How could an eighteen-year-old who came to KFC work part-time to support his family give a girl like that a future?" Chu Qing laughed at herself.
"Why not?" Li Ruoxian opened the window and lit a cigarette, "If you want to see the people below clearly, no matter how clean the window is, you'd better open it."
"I understand, I just lack the hand to open the window." Chu Qing said calmly.
"I have it," Li Ruoxian waved his hand in front of Chu Qing, "As long as you are willing, I have the ability to open the windows of Eastern China for you, not to mention the entire Origin Star."
"You can drink, but you can't drink to have a drink with the dog." Chu Qing rolled his eyes, "Besides, I still hope that it is my own hand that opens the window."
With that said, Chu Qing closed the window in front of him again and walked out of the dressing room.
Li Ruoxian was left alone here smoking a cigarette, looking at the ants below through the window, with a faint smile on his face.
......
At ten o'clock in the evening, part-time temporary workers like Chu Qing can already get off work.
Saying goodbye to her colleagues, Chu Qing put on her bag and prepared to go home.
"You... hello..."
As soon as Chu Qing stepped out of the store, he saw someone greeting him.
Looking closely, it turned out to be the girl who asked her vx during the day.
Chu Qing didn't expect that the little girl was still here, and asked with some surprise: "Hello, are you waiting here?"
The little girl became even more shy after hearing this, and whispered: "I...wait for you here..."
"Wait for me?" Chu Qing pointed at herself, "Why?"
"When you get off work..."
"Have you been waiting here?"
The little girl shook her head, "I went back after eating during the day, and I didn't come until half past nine in the evening."
"Why do you have to wait for me to get off work?" Chu Qing asked.
"I want your vx..."
Chu Qing was silent.
"Why, why would you want a vx from someone like me?" After a long time, Chu Qing raised his head and looked at the girl.
"do you understand me?"
The girl was stunned and shook her head.
"So you just want to ask me for a vx just because I have such a face?" Chu Qing's face became even colder and he asked lightly.
The girl wanted to retort, but didn't know how to say it.
Chu Qing walked away, "If you really want to know me, just follow me."
Watching Chu Qing's figure gradually disappearing, the girl stamped her feet and followed him.
The two walked in tandem, walking through the downtown area, past residential buildings, past villa areas, and finally stopped in front of an old house.
The large rusty iron gate locked everything in the courtyard, seemingly not allowing even the slightest peek from the outside world.
The ground was covered with dead leaves, fallen and dilapidated.
Underneath the layers of ivy and vines are walls that have long since peeled off. The old-maintained fountain pool has long since dried up. The stone carvings on both sides are incomplete and look weird and cold.
Even the dim street lights on the roadside can only illuminate a corner of the hideous outline of this ancient house.
The girl was a little panicked. He couldn't understand why there was such a frightening and disgusting 'mildew' in Canghai City, one of the largest metropolises in the Chixiao Kingdom.
"So, let's go as far as possible."
The girl turned her head. Under the moonlight, Chu Qing's face was so beautiful that it was unreal, like an urban ghost story that no one knew about in Canghai City, or like a lonely immortal rising up and down under the bright moon.
It's just that she discovered it accidentally, and this can be regarded as his grace and warning to intruders like her.
Hurry up.
The girl ran away.
Standing in front of the big iron door, Chu Qing sighed, took out the key, untied the iron chain on the door, and pushed the door open with a sharp sound.
"I am back......"
In the darkness, no one responded.
Chu Qing entered the house and found the position of the lamp very skillfully.
As a result, the monster living in the city seemed to have returned to its soul and opened its dim eyes.
Fortunately, KFC has employee meals, so Chu Qing doesn’t have to go hungry until now.
Speaking of which, this house was all the property left by Chu Qing's parents whose whereabouts were unknown.
A long time ago, this place was called the "Canghai Yunshi Pavilion". At that time, this courtyard, which took five years to build at a huge cost, was extremely luxurious. There were flowers in the courtyard all the time, and the pines and cypresses outside the courtyard were evergreen. , needless to say how luxurious the building is, the owner is one of the top dignitaries in the world, and there is a lot of traffic coming and going every day...
But that was ninety years ago.
The world is always changing too fast. In just ninety years, it has moved from the old steam age to the electronic age, and from the electronic age to the new electronic age; the world has gone from chaos to peace, and from peace to chaos... .There are too many things that happened, but not many things that need to be remembered, so that these things that need to be remembered don't really need to be remembered.
Today's Yunshi Pavilion, after experiencing a short period of glory, has fallen into a long period of silence and decline, and has been forgotten by most people along with other things.
Amidst the overgrowth of weeds, the former luxury is no longer there. The ivy has covered the cracks on the mottled walls. Most of the sculptures in the courtyard are incomplete and broken. The decay of the human atmosphere and the lushness of the plants have turned this house into an indescribable house. A famous haunted house.
But for Chu Qing, the house in front of him is already the most intimate thing in the world.
Of course, this also includes the various small animals that stay overnight in the Yunshi Pavilion.
"The current balance of the savings account with the last number 6211 is 2643.44 yuan..."
Chu Qing looked at the balance of her bank card and couldn't help but have a headache.
Li Ruoxian did take good care of himself, working as a part-time employee and earning the salary of a regular employee, but Chu Qing, who grew up eating hundreds of meals, knew that there was no free lunch in the world.
Including what Li Ruoxian said to himself in the locker room during the day, he knew that he had some value that was worthy of Li Ruoxian's actions.
But what is your own value? Chu Qing smiled bitterly.
Could it be that Li Ruoxian really has a Cowherd shop that lacks the first brand?
He shuddered and did not dare to continue thinking about it.
It's better to go to bed, you have to go to school tomorrow...
Lying on the bed, Chu Qing was in a daze and thought of the girl from the daytime.
She is really good...
Then we can't delay her anymore...
Chu Qingyuan fell into a deep sleep.
