Chapter 38 Shopping
Bao Datong scratched his head, "I don't remember when I offended this little ghost demon. I have been living in seclusion. After entering the world, I have never intervened in other supernatural events except for cooperating with you. How could I know them?"
"Or what about your past life?" said Wanli.
"Boss, I ask you to think about it seriously, okay?" Bao Datong stood up with annoyance, "The old Taoist has lost his soul, why are you reincarnated? But he is really a scum in my Taoist world. Just die, and he is also buried with boys and girls, and he wants to practice with his soul body and then be reborn. I'm afraid he doesn't want boys and girls to accompany him. Maybe he wants to absorb the pure aura in their bodies! Alas, I don't understand. Since immortality is so important, why do you ignore the lives of other people!"
"Has the old Taoist soul been eaten?" Xiao Xia was very confused, "Didn't they say they were all sealed in the jar? How to eat it?"
"You don't understand this. If the soul of the old Taoist priest is not eaten, the two children who do not understand the practice of the method will not grow into demon children with profound magic power. Everything is naturally passed down by using this 'innate' method." Bao Datong explained, "Although for the outside world, the three cylinders are sealed, there will be similar ways to them. How to say it? It's like a unit room, which may be locked outside and cannot be accessed, but the rooms inside can still be walked around."
"But their attitude towards you doesn't seem to be casual, as if they want to kill you quickly! Why is this? There is always a cause, right?" Wanliqi said.
"This question can be put aside first." Ruan Zhan took over, "As long as you know, they are targeting you, just be careful in doing things in the future."
Everyone agreed with his words, and they also understood in their hearts that since they understood the life experiences of the two demon children, they should take the initiative and their opponents would not sit still and wait for death. Therefore, a head-on conflict is inevitable. Therefore, the most urgent task now is to restore everyone's physical strength and energy, especially Ruan Zhan, who has been running around and consuming it.
But Xiaoxia cannot rest, she still has to go to work. Although Wanli suggested that she ask for leave, she knew that she could never treat her job like this again. Otherwise, even if Director Pan is biased, she would face the risk of being fired.
While she was still a while before work, she slept in a daze for two hours. Fortunately, it was summer and her clothes were simple and she didn't need to wear makeup, so when she came to the office in a speeding car that she came to the station, she was only fifteen minutes late, which was nothing to her recent record of slacking off work.
In fact, during those two hours, she didn't sleep well and kept having strange dreams. She couldn't remember what she dreamed about, but only remembered that there were two groups of people who kept fighting. She was very scared in the dream, and after waking up, she forgot them all, which made her feel a little uneasy. I don't know if it was because Ruan Zhan gave her psychological hints when she talked about the origins of the two demon children, or if something was going to happen.
The nervousness of days and not sleeping for several days made her extremely tired. She almost fell asleep against the wall when she was waiting for copying the documents. She was in a daze all day. After finally finishing her work for the day, she ran to the 14th floor, trying to find Wanli to go home together, but was told that Dr. Wan had a patient committing suicide and he had already rushed there.
The sunshine in the summer is still hot, and the ground that has been exposed to the sun for a day is steaming. Xiao Xia stood casually at the bus stop, feeling dizzy. The voices and sounds of cars around her were just a buzzing noise to her. At this time, she suddenly remembered a sentence - waiting for a car is like waiting for people, many cars, many people, but there are never the cars you have to wait for and the people you have to wait for!
What about the person she was waiting for? She was so close to her, but she always passed by her and could never touch her!
There are many men around her, Wanli, a perfect husband-like body-like; Bao Datong, a cute lover-like body-like fashion pioneer in the advertising company in the building; she can even have a crush on Director Pan, a mature uncle-like body-like body, but why doesn't she love that but fall in love with that unpredictable man? Sometimes, she feels that he loves her so much and cares for her like a treasure, but sometimes, he suddenly becomes cold and alienated, making her unable to tell whether this feeling is real or just an illusion she has caused by being a illusion.
The bus at the peak of get off work was very fatal. After finally waiting for the bus she was about to take, she found that it was already out of reach. She didn't have the courage to get on the bus and decided to take the subway. Although it would be a little far away, I think the bus would be better. I think it would be better for her home, which is closer to the office. She always walks on and off work and doesn't have to suffer this crime. However, if she goes home, she can't stay with him openly!
She thought and walked towards the subway station. When she was about to reach the entrance, she suddenly saw a giant billboard in a large shopping mall, which was advertised as a brand-name underwear. She had a good figure, so she cared about underwear and was willing to invest. Seeing a beautiful model and dreamy underwear at this moment made her suddenly have the urge to buy and irresistible urge to resist!
Her steps hesitated for a moment, and reason finally failed to overcome his desire and walked towards the mall.
This store is quite famous, but it has been renovating the interior a few days ago, so Xiaoxia is not familiar with the adjusted counter location. But she didn't know what happened, but as soon as she entered the door, she went straight to the third floor through the escalator and came to the underwear department with ease, as if the decoration had been passed. But before she could realize this, she was already attracted by her beautiful underwear.
She picked a set and found that there was no clerk to serve her, so she planned to try it on a whim. She didn't realize her behavior was abnormal. When she bought underwear, she just bought it according to the corresponding model, and she had never tried it in the mall. At this moment, she didn't know what, as if there was a voice in her heart directing her, but she didn't feel it herself.
She didn't notice that next to the underwear department was the children's clothing department.
After looking at the mirror in the locker room several times, she was very satisfied with the effect of her underwear. But just as she was about to change her clothes, she found that a small door in the locker room opened a crack. This scared her. She thought there was a pervert and was worried that she had already exposed, so she screamed.
But, she didn't make any sound!
On the wooden wall of the locker room, a child's hand stretched out and pressed her mouth tightly. Then, the wooden door opened and Zhang Jialin stood at the door!
She still looked like she was, with long hair, retro dress, blue and white face, and a pair of big eyes that were not at all alive. A cold breath came to her face!
Xiao Xia was frightened and forgot to struggle, so she looked at Zhang Jialin. After standing for a while, Zhang Jialin suddenly rushed up and grabbed Xiao Xia with force! Xiao Xia never knew anything could be so fast. Before she even blinked her eyes, she felt a flash of pain in her left chest and a scream could be heard in her ear.
It was not her scream, but Zhang Jialin's. Because she was too close to Xiaoxia's amulet, she was obviously hotter by the yellow light emitted by the amulet, but despite this, she still grabbed a bloody five-finger mark between Xiaoxia's collarbone and chest.
At this moment, Xiaoxia suddenly felt that this little girl hated her!
But why do they hate her? Why do they hate Bao Datong again? She and Bao Datong have never provoked them!
But she didn't have time to think about it, because the moment the amulet shone out, the hand that stretched out from the wall also shrank back, and Xiao Xia hurriedly took advantage of the blink of an eye to rush out of the locker room!
She couldn't care whether she was exposed or not! Fortunately, her skirt was a two-piece set, and her other hand was holding her top to block the spring light on her chest. She bet that Zhang Jialin was not a physical one, bet that she was afraid of her amulet, bet that she made a big noise to attract the attention of others, and then rushed out!
The pain from her knees and elbows proved that Zhang Jialin was indeed not a physical entity, but her collision did not knock Zhang Jialin away, but just passed by. Xiao Xia did not look back, crawled down while shouting for help, and ran around the shelves. But she immediately found that it was useless to scream how loud she was. The people around could not see her at all, as if she was transparent, but she clearly heard the noisy sound from the outside world, so why couldn't others see her or hear her?
A wooden stick was stretched out from somewhere and tripped Xiao Xia again. Before she got up, two calves appeared in front of her. Two feet in small red leather shoes raised one and stepped onto her head viciously.
She quickly retracted, and as soon as she turned around, Zhang Jialin appeared behind her again, and changed directions, it was still the same, as if countless Zhang Jialin surrounded her. Only then did she realize that her amulet didn't have much effect on this magical demon child, and could only protect her from being attacked from being attacked on important parts of her body. But even so, Zhang Jialin still scratched her skin!
Cramp-
A light sounded in Xiaoxia's ears, so close that it was just beside her. She looked around in horror and found herself sitting in the middle of several unopened clothing boxes in the children's clothing department. The sound came from behind the box, and Zhang Jialin stood opposite her, staring at her in a gloomy way!
"Auntie." A call came from the gap in the box, and the sound was stiff, unlike human voices.
A head slowly poked out from behind the box, with picturesque faces, red lips and white teeth, but a dull smile and shiny skin. He turned out to be a wooden model for children. While calling Xiaoxia, he walked out from behind the box, because his knees could not bend and his posture was extremely strange.
Xiao Xia put on her clothes randomly and wanted to hide behind the box, but suddenly she felt her wrists tightly, and she was instantly grabbed by the cold and stiff thing. When she looked down, she found that there were two small wooden models. They were a man and a woman, wearing clothes displayed in the mall, with brand and price tags on it. She pulled Xiao Xia from left to right, turned her neck mechanically, looked up at her, making a sound of "Kabakaba", as if she was winding the clock!
"Let's go!" they said in unison.
"Where are you going?!" Xiao Xia struggled hard, trying to get rid of the clamping of the two small woods, but she couldn't do it at all. She was forced to walk towards a door like an escape ladder. Zhang Jialin stepped back and led the way, with a bleak white light in her eyes staring at Xiao Xia.
"I won't go, let me go!"
She remembered that the wooden models in the mall were very light, and sometimes she would fall down if she accidentally bumped her into it. Why were these two so heavy? Her hands were about to be torn apart, but she still couldn't break free from the wooden hands that were not separated by five fingers!
Seeing that the door was getting closer and closer, she screamed and kicked over several things on the shelves, intending to attract other people's attention, but she found in despair that these were all futile. Although she was in the bustling mall, she seemed to be helpless on an isolated island!
When she arrived at the door, she kicked the door frame and refused to leave. Seeing Zhang Jialin looking at her annoyedly, she felt a little happy about victory.
Finally, she no longer had a cold and unchanging expression. Finally, she could make this demon child work hard and not subdue her so easily!
"Be careful when visiting the mall!" The legs became numb, and one hand stroked her thighs again, and the words as cold as a snake sounded on her side. When she turned around, she found that it was a wooden male model showing her suit. This made Xiao Xia's legs soft and she could no longer support her. She was pushed into the door by a force.
Darkness, boundless darkness!
She didn't know where the door was leading to, but she felt that it was unusually dark. The two little wooden men were still holding her hands, but the sides conveyed a strong sense of oppression. She felt like she was walking into a long corridor covered with wooden floors and was not standing down.
She believed in her feelings because Wanli said she had a tendency to claustrophobia, so she was particularly sensitive to a closed and narrow environment.
Bang-Bang-Bang-Bang--
The sound of wood stomping on the wooden board sounded on both sides of her body. Two cold white lamps in front of her were moving forward flutteringly, just like Zhang Jialin's eyes. What about her own footsteps?
Why can't I hear her footsteps? Is it Zhang Jialin funny, or is her soul leaving her body?
For a moment, she regretted it very much. She shouldn't have gone to buy things. Even though she knew that it was a critical moment, the two demon children with such strong aggressiveness would not just defend but not attack, so why were they still careless?
"If you don't go shopping, I will find other ways to catch you." A sentence suddenly squeezed into her mind.
Xiao Xia was shocked and realized that he had been bewitched inexplicably thinking about buying things. I think that Wanli's patient did not commit suicide for no reason, but was to adjust Wanli from her. After all, Wanli is a physique that is invincible to gods and ghosts, and it is not that easy to confuse him!
The crisp childish voice laughed gloomyly!
Xiao Xia understood that she could understand her feelings and knew that she must have guessed correctly, so she was so proud.
"If you have anything, come to me. Don't use this despicable method to set traps for Ruan Zhan!" She thought she was being treated as bait to lure Ruan Zhan into the hook again. She was so angry that she shouted at the two little white lamps.
She just wanted to love him, to give him warmth, to pull him out of his dark inner world, and never wanted to be a burden to him, or even his weakness. Why do everyone use her like this? She would rather die than drag him down! So she tried to calm her mind, afraid that people who were so sensitive could feel her danger! How many times, as long as she was in trouble, he could feel it and would come immediately, even in Sima Nan's dream killing technique, which made her feel connected with him and was extremely close, but it also made her feel that it would bring him danger!
She wants to try to solve the problem by herself! She must have a solution!
"What is Ruan Zhan? I don't take it seriously at all!" The voice entered Xiao Xia's mind again, "I want you!"
What this little demon boy wants? Why?
"And Bao Datong!"
