Chapter 11
Chapter 11
After a busy morning, Yan Moting fell into a peaceful dream.The sparrows were full and curled up in the soft quilt, chirping in their dreams.
Hong Yanmo just took a nap and got up immediately.He re-tied his red hair and wiped his sword. This action gradually calmed his mind. When the cold light entered his red pupils, he put the knife back into its sheath. When he got up, he disturbed the dark wine red in the basket. Chirp.
"Are you going to fight the tide of ghosts again?" Zhou Fangzun said, Hong Yanmo looked back at him and stroked his hair.
"Woke you up, Chirp?"
"No, I woke up by myself."
Hong Yanmo patted his head again.
"Good boy, Yan Moting, please take care of me. I'm not out this time, it's just that I have some work transfers, so I can come back at night."
Zhou Fangzun obviously relaxed a little bit, and the direct expression is that the feathers are puffed up, making it look rounder.
"The little dragon that sneaked in should not attack the guys. Shenwei will also be in the Yan Mo Pavilion in the afternoon, and he will take action if there is anything." Hong Yanmo stood up, flicking his bundled red hair, "I Chiu is gone, don't forget to drink the medicine."
He jumped directly from the main building of Yan Moting, and the red hair and three-color feather coir raincoat fluttered.In mid-air, barely visible to the naked eye, Hong Yanmo drew his sword, and the torn space swallowed him instantly.
Zhou Fangzun squatted by the window to watch him leave, then slowly moved back into his basket and closed his eyes.
Recently, he is in good health and his work schedule is on schedule. In the afternoon, he is going to water the flowers and watch those energetic guys by the way.
***
There was a soft scabbard sound, and the red-haired boy knelt down.
In the dark hall, only his red hair and the front of his wings were shimmering. The sage's coir raincoat made him look younger and weaker.
However, this is just an illusion.
When he slowly opened his eyes, the aura that belonged to the unparalleled swordsman rose steadily from his body, making him immediately change from a young man who was easy to see and somewhat indistinguishable between male and female into a sharp sword drawn out of its sheath.He knelt down on one knee and waited silently. The high seat behind the heavy curtain finally lowered his voice.
"Hong, how is the situation recently? I have heard more than one person mention Yan Moting's new dishes."
The majestic voice spoke very homely words, and everyone who heard them could feel the gentleness contained in these words.
"I really want to try it, can you deliver food?"
Hong Yanmo looked up for a second.
"Of course you can chirp! The takeaway business is currently under preparation, if possible, I would like to entrust you to advertise for us chirp!"
The voice laughed heartily.
"Of course, Hong, I'm very happy, as long as I have an annual card."
After talking about eating, the bottom of the gloomy world seemed to be filled with a relaxed atmosphere. At this time, the voice naturally and gently changed the topic to the business.
"I invited you here this time to talk to you about your new partner. I asked Ghost Lantern to inform you, and I received a positive reply. I am very glad that you are willing to try my idea."
Hong Yanmo bowed his head deeply.
"Red, I am willing to do everything that is conducive to the prosperity of the world, Chirp."
"You don't have to worry too much. Although it's just an idea, I still don't want to wrong you. That swordsman is kind and righteous, and he will never hold you back in terms of force." The voice paused, "It's just because I was once His companion has hurt him, he has never partnered with anyone before, and has always walked alone."
Hong Yanmo is not afraid of communicating with people, this is an essential skill for him to open a shop, as long as the other party also works hard to resist the tide of ghosts, Hong Yanmo will definitely work hard to cooperate.
"It took a lot of time for you, and the relevant paperwork has been prepared. Ghost Lantern has asked for a half-year vacation. During this period, I'm sorry for your trouble, Hong."
"Red, Chirp for orders."
The red-haired young swordsman left to sign related documents.Not long after he left, another swordsman with a sword came in a hurry. His long black and red hair was tied in a high ponytail. It was not smooth, but full of a fiery aura. Flame patterns echo each other.The flower earrings can also reflect light in the darkness at the bottom of the world. He went straight into the hall and knelt down on one knee.
"The tide of ghosts in the east has been retreated. In order to stabilize the front line, more people are needed to be stationed."
"Thank you, Yuanyi." The voice said softly, "I will send someone there immediately. Unfortunately, Hong just left, and he is your new partner."
The young man with black and red hair kept his head slightly lowered and did not speak.Of course he approves of King Yan Mo's decision, and is willing to adapt to the tactics of cooperating with his partners, but from the bottom of his heart, he doesn't think that people like himself can cooperate well with others.
Because of his mistakes, his world has ushered in an era of no peace. Even if he killed ghosts all his life, Ji Guoyuan probably still needs to be blamed.
King Yan Mo knew that the word "companion" would touch Ji Guoyuanyi's heart, so he just sighed, and after listening to the statement, he let the swordsman go to rest.Ji Guoyuan left with a salute, and did not immediately return to his residence at the bottom of the world, but went to the relatively prosperous streets in the city.
Of course, the flow of people here is not as good as inside the small world. It mainly serves the people who hunt down the ghost tide, but it also has all internal organs.Ji Guoyuan walked straight into the bookstore he often went to. In his free time, besides practicing swords, he would also read quietly, which would make his mind very peaceful.
——The red-haired boy bouncing around in front of the bookshelf suddenly attracted his attention.
The bookstore itself is very old, with few staff, books that are not used often have to be piled up on top of the shelves, tightly packed.He probably wanted to take out one of the books, but the space was small and the books were arranged crowded. The red-haired boy jumped up and down for a while, but he couldn't take out the book while taking care of the other books. In desperation, he turned back Getting ready to move a stool.
He was an unexpectedly petite crusader, and he was still wearing a knife, but he couldn't feel any sharp aura on his body, and he seemed to have reached great success.
With a vague guess in his mind, Ji Guoyuan walked up to him and took advantage of his height to help the other party pull out the book.
"Thank you very much, Chirp!" The red-haired swordsman held the book and thanked him, his brilliant red hair lit up the surroundings, "It's hard to find such a comprehensive introduction to the world of ghosts and gods in other places, fortunately, there are .”
A little concerned about the "tweet" in the other party's words, Ji Guoyuan just shook his head slightly on the surface, expressing that you are welcome, then picked out a book he wanted, and went to the front desk to pay.
"If you don't mind, please take this tweet."
What was presented to him was an invitation ticket, with patterns of sparrows in aprons and flying sparrows in bamboos painted on it, and the large and gorgeous "Yan Moting" three characters were shining in gold.It was rare for Ji Guoyuan to meet such an enthusiastic person. He paused for a moment and wanted to refuse, but the red-haired swordsman put the invitation ticket directly into his hand.
"You look a little melancholy, why don't you come to Yan Moting and have fun." The red-haired boy bent his eyes at him, "I am the master of Yan Moting, Red Yan Mo, thank you again, please come Play chirp!"
Hong Yanmo... the name is clearly...
As soon as Ji Guoyuan looked up, the red-haired boy named Hong Yanmo had already left the store, and waved him happily to say goodbye. The sleeves of Sanshiyu were dazzling.
"I……"
"I know you." Hong Yan Mo smiled, "Yuichi, who is also a swordsman, is also my new partner."
"For the next six months, please take care of me. Welcome to Yan Moting to find me at any time."
He left, Ji Guoyuan held the invitation ticket in one hand, finally folded it in half and put it in his arms.He didn't think he would be able to form a comrade-in-arms relationship with others again, but if it was just to cooperate in combat, a partner with a straightforward personality was undoubtedly the best situation.
***
Hong Yanmo looked at the time and decided to save some money, so he bought a train ticket and took the special line directly from the bottom of the world to Yan Moting.It just rained not long ago, and the water was full. The train was driving on the water, passing one station after another.After accepting the ticket check halfway, Hong Yanmo touched the newly bought snacks in his sleeve, thinking that the chirping people in Yan Moting would like it.
He was really in a good mood. Ji Guoyuanyi was undoubtedly a powerful swordsman, and there was a faint echo between the top swordsmen. He inexplicably felt that their swordsmanship should be more compatible.
It seems that changing a new partner will not affect the efficiency of fighting ghosts.
Hong Yanmo looked out of the window in a relaxed manner. In the clear blue sky, a white dragon flew by.He glanced at it admiringly, and then touched the snacks prepared for the few chirps. Suddenly, he froze.
"Excuse me! How long will it take to get to the next station?" Hong Yanmo quickly found the conductor, who was wearing a uniform and looked like a black shadow with a taller physique. He glanced at his watch and silently gave Hong Yan Mo for a while.
【10 minutes. 】
Hong Yanmo gritted his teeth, and rushed to the window again, the shadow of the white dragon had gradually faded away, almost invisible.There are other shops in that direction, the most famous one being the soup house of the Witch Granny Tang.
Ten minutes later, when the train arrived at the station, Hong Yanmo immediately jumped out of the train, stepped on the water-logged rails, and ran forward at high speed.His speed is many times faster than the train, the shadow of dusk is chasing behind him, the sky is getting dark little by little, the train that was left by him starts to light up, and from time to time it makes a sound of "ding ding" to remind the night traveler Ghosts and gods pay attention to avoid them.
I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up, the night has come.
Hong Yanmo dragged his wet hair and walked onto the platform. At this time, the thick night had already invaded this side, and across the water, he could see the lights of the human world in the distance.He skillfully found the telephone booth at the station, dropped a few coins, and dialed Yan Moting's phone.
"Hello! Welcome to Yan Moting Chiu! Please press [-] for appointment, and please press for enquiries..."
"Nine." Hong Yanmo said bluntly, there was a channel switch on the phone, and soon, the phone was connected by the sparrow supervisor.
"Boss Red Chirp?!"
"It's me." Hong Yanmo held the receiver with another hand, and glanced at the ghosts and gods passing by in the station, "Is Da Zaijiu still in Yan Moting? I felt his voice somewhere outside." Breath, now we need to confirm his location."
The sparrow supervisor hastily "tweeted" twice, and after waiting for a while, there was a reply from the opposite side.
"Boss Hong, Dazai Jiu is not here!"
"Let Bai Lanjiu answer the phone."
The manager of the sparrow then sent the sparrow to look for Bai Lanjiu, and the sparrow flew to Bai Lan's side with a "flutter" and said:
"Bai Lanjiu, Boss Hong asked you to answer the phone."
The fluffy Jiu didn't change his face when he heard the words. After eating two handfuls of marshmallows, he answered the phone calmly.
"Boss Hong, I will report Dazai Jiu for eating crab meat Jiu!"

The soup house chef is ecstatic!I’ve wanted to write this a long time ago!
Ah, this article will try my best to synthesize some of Gong Lao’s works. It’s inconvenient to read all of them. Tangwu Hal Totoro and Goldfish Princess are easier to integrate into. I will consider the others.
Gong Lao’s magical world background + Japanese-style gods and stories can be regarded as the background of Yan Moting, of course, the main line is still in the shops and tweets in various small worlds~
