    Before noon, Xiao Zhen arrived at the Qingxi Hotel on the edge of the town with a sullen face.  Before him, there was already a serious young man in a black suit waiting at the entrance of the antique store.

    "Your boss hurriedly called me out this early in the morning. What happened?"

    "Some troublesome things have happened at Qingxi Hotel recently, otherwise I wouldn't have called you out at this time."

    "Oh, I remember that the Qingxi Hotel is on the right track, right? Besides, even if something happens, Lao Huang can take it easy, can't he wait until tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? Alas, I am planning to accompany Xiaoqing and the others today.  Take a breather This guy actually made several calls in one morning!" Xiao Zhen was preparing to participate in a rare group activity for the family with his wife and daughter, but just this morning, the ignorant guy actually said that something urgent was about to happen.  He urged over.

    "Mr. Xiao, please calm down first, something really big is going on this time."

    Knowing that the man who was called out in this situation was extremely irritable, the man who complained to him was not angry, but instead laughed with him until he finished complaining.  After comforting Xiao Zhen, the serious man continued: "I heard that someone was injured in the hotel."

    "What! What happened? Come on, tell me."

    "I'm really sorry, I don't know the specific situation very well. This happened this morning, and I was just called over by the boss." Shrugging, the man looked worried: "Something has been wrong in the hotel recently! Before.  In the past few days, two people have become ill for no apparent reason and have also been admitted to the hospital I hope you can wait for a while. The boss is helping the injured employees to go through the admission procedures at the hospital. He said he will be back in a moment. "

    "HuhOkay, I'll wait." After Xiao Zhen took a deep breath, he looked at him apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, today is a group activity at home, and I was anxious to be called out at this time, so  "

    "Don't worry, I don't care, I quite understand that feeling~~"

    Nodding in understanding, the man dressed as the manager said.

    He is someone who is often called out at important moments, so he knows the boring feeling quite well!  This time was no exception. He was on vacation when his boss called him back early in the morning and asked him to manage the hotel.  Although he didn't know exactly what happened in the hotel this morning, he had some idea and wasn't panicked.

    After arranging the employees, he patiently waited for Xiao Zhen's arrival.

    "I seem to have heard something bad and I won't dare to call you next time." Mr. Huang opened the door and walked in. He smiled at Ronaldinho, but his face was obviously tired.

    "The boss is really joking. Even if I go through fire and water, as long as the boss calls, I will only arrive in ten minutes."

    "Okay, okay, you go out first, Mr. Xiao and I have something to talk about."

    "Okay, boss."

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    "Old Huang, what happened? I heard Ronaldinho said that an employee was injured?"

    "Hey, I don't want to call you out if it's a trivial matter." After sighing, Mr. Huang took a bottle of red wine, opened it and poured a glass for Xiao Zhen: "Old Xiao, our hotel may not be able to continue.  "

    "What? Are you kidding? We have invested a lot of money here!" Xiao Zhen frowned and looked a little ugly. This news was too sudden.  After calming down, he said solemnly: "Tell me the reason, and let's think about some solutions. Didn't you say that the hotel's operation was good some time ago?"

    "Who says it isn't, but several things have happened recently that have had some bad effects." Thinking of the strange things that happened in the past few days, Mr. Huang almost scratched his scalp.  After taking a sip of wine, he collected his thoughts and spoke slowly: "In the past few days, three employees fainted for no reason and were sent to the hospital. The hospital couldn't even detect any illness. Although I suppressed the matter, haven't I  What impact will it have on the store, but if things continue like this, this hotel will definitely not be able to stay open."

    He sighed and continued: "Well, let's just talk about today. Three people have already asked Ronaldinho to resign. There are two others who haven't heard anything at all, and I don't know if they will come back."

    "Did the hospital really find nothing at all?" After seeing Mr. Huang nod, Xiao Zhen continued: "Did they do anything strange before they fainted?"

    "Probably not." After thinking for a while, Mr. Huang replied affirmatively: "The first time was on Sunday a month ago. He was a waiter. The young man was a high school student nearby and came to work part-time. Originally, he was a waiter.  Well, but for some reason, when he went to the cellar to get red wine that day, he suddenly fainted there. If Ronaldinho hadn't discovered it early, he wouldn't have known how long he would have been lying in the cellar!"

    "The situation in the next few timeshow?  "Because his daughter sometimes mentioned some strange things when she came home, Xiao Zhen couldn't help but think about it. If those people were really evil, it would be better to ask Xiao Lin to come and take a look.

    "It's almost the same. A week ago, another waitress recruited in the town suddenly fainted while cleaning."

    "The waiter also fainted for no reason this morning, but this guy was more unlucky. He fell down the stairs and broke a hole in his head. Alas, fortunately, he was treated in time and nothing serious happened. By the way, I did too.  I suspected some people were causing trouble and asked people to investigate, but no clues were found at all."

    "Has anyone among those people woke up?" Xiao Zhen was silent for a while after hearing this.

    "No, those people have been unconscious and have no intention of waking up. Fortunately, except for the guy who broke his head, the rest of them are in good health and are in good health." After hesitating, Mr. Huang whispered  Said: "When I was in the hospital, I met several people with similar conditions, including the employees of the construction team we invited last time. Do you thinkdid they come across something unclean?"

    Xiao Zhen patted his shoulder and said calmly: "Don't worry, I'll ask Xiao Lin to come over this afternoon. Haha, don't you know, my daughter is an expert in this field."

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The annual memorial ceremony lasts for a whole day, and the flow of people coming and going during this day is generally uninterrupted.

    In the backyard of the small temple, Yuyu was coming out with a stack of amulets.

    ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because she hasn¡¯t had enough sleep recently, but from time to time she will cover her mouth and yawn.

    "Sister, do you want to take a rest? I'll take care of the rest." Xiaojing walked to her sister and asked in a low voice.

    Since this morning, my sister has been busy with this and that before I wake up. It must be very hard.

    "It's not necessary at all. Xiaojing just needs to help her sister. She is very strong." He smiled and rubbed his sister's little head, and said a bunch of words in his hand that said the family was safe, the family was safe, the money was abundant, etc.  He raised the amulet of blessing words and snickered: "Xiao Jing, look, if these are sold out, we will make a lot of money this time~~"

    Thinking that she didn¡¯t have to worry about a little bit of family money, Xiao Jing couldn¡¯t help but narrow her eyes in happiness. After being secretly intoxicated for a while, she asked weakly: ¡°Hey, sister, do you think these amulets of ours will be useful?¡±

    "Thatwell, maybe, no! It shouldbe useful~~" Regarding this question, Yuyu could only pinch her hot earlobes and mumble at will.  Even she herself didn't believe how effective these amulets that she and Xiaojing had spent several nights making would be.

    Seeing her timid look, Yuyu immediately comforted her in a panic: "It's okay, it's okay. Everyone knows very well whether these things are useful or not. Most people buy them just to get good luck. It's okay!"

    "Yeah, I understand~" In fact, Xiao Jing also knew these things very well. She just wanted to change the topic by asking this.  The distressed sister rubbed her sister's cheek, and Xiaojing whispered in her ear: "Sister, do you really don't need to take a rest You had a nightmare again yesterday!"

    "Haha, it doesn't matter. Oh, by the way, Xiaojing goes to entertain that guy Xiao Lin. That little girl was deceived by me before~~" Waved her hand, Yuyu took a sip of tea and walked towards the inner court.  The two sisters are busy all day at this time of year, and physical fatigue is inevitable, but compared with the living expenses in the next few months, it is worth it!

    "" Behind Yuyu, Xiaojing opened her mouth, but endured it.

    Actually, she still had something to say, but she swallowed it when she saw her sister's tired figure.

    Yesterday, she had a nightmare too!

    ***

    In the inner courtyard of the temple, there is a circle hollowed out on the wall facing the door, leaving a round circle.

    This circle is about two meters in diameter. It is well decorated and enshrines a small statue of a god within the complex patterns.  I can't see his face clearly, but I can see from his body shape that he is a little fairy.  There were a lot of people in the room at this time, and everyone was not joking. They were just crowded and praying below.

    "Mom, mom, dad isn't here yet?"

    "Dad is busy today and may not be able to come. Xiaoying should be considerate of dad~"

    "Hmm~"

    After the mother and daughter communicated in the crowd for a while, the mother took Xiaoying into the praying crowd.

    "Bless Xiaolin and Xiaoying for good health."

    "Bless mommy, sister and daddy to be in good health, and the family will always be together! By the way, there is also sister Yue, she is also??Be with us forever!  "Hearing that her mother missed her in her prayer, Xiaoying quickly added. Then she showed a big smile to her mother: "Mom, I'm right, I believe the gods will realize our wishes.  "

    "Haha, Xiaoying, if you have too many wishes, the gods will not bless you~~"

    "No, not much at all" The little girl pouted, grabbing the corner of her mother's clothes unhappily and acting coquettishly.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    "Xiao Lin, let's go back."

    After worshiping the gods and making wishes, Xiao Lin¡¯s mother handed Xiaoying to Yue and pulled Xiao Lin aside.

    "Rin, these are offerings, you give them to that little girl Yuyu."

    Xiao Lin's mother took out a bulging envelope from her arms and said: "The parents of the two little guys, Yuyu and Xiaojing, suddenly passed away. It has not been easy for more than ten years. Give these to them, and remember to be careful when speaking.  !¡±

    "Mom, I understand. It's not like I haven't done this before." She smiled and shook her head. Lin took the envelope and said, "You and Yue will leave first later, and I will send it to Yuyu."

    "By the way, Lin, I heard Xiaoying said that you bullied her~ I just asked Yue, and she didn't object~" As if she remembered something inadvertently, her mother whispered in Xiao Lin's ear: "I heard that you gave her back  Lots of sweets, right~"

    "No, absolutely not!"

    "Really~" Mom smiled and nodded: "Yue will never lie~"

    "Ha, haha, of course~" Xiao Lin turned around with a guilty conscience and glanced at Xiangyue, only to find that she ignored him at all.

    "Yue" After her mother took Xiaoying away, Lin leaned against Yue resentfully.

    "What's wrong?"

    "I found out that Xiaoying has become bad!" Rin gritted his teeth!

    "Who told you to spend so little time at home all year round that you can't spare any time to accompany your sister! You deserve it!!" Looking at Rin in this state, Yue gave her an annoyed look.

    ***

    Xiao Lin has never met Yuyu¡¯s parents, the previous owners of the temple, but she is very familiar with Yuyu and Xiaojing.  This world is like this, and the last world was even worse. At that time, Xiao Lin even helped Yuyu and the others sweep their graves.

    In the last world, I and Yue missed each other.

    According to the trajectory of that world, I have been working in Fenghua City after finishing college, and then came into contact with Yuyu under the help of my family. After that, the relationship between the two was good. Although they did not have the same feeling as when they got along with Yue,  Both himself and Yuyu seemed to be maintaining that situation.

    It¡¯s a good situation for both of them

    Although I am a girl in this world, I have never experienced that kind of relationship.  But when facing Yuyu, Xiao Lin still cares about her unconsciously.  As for the pocket money incident ahem, judging from my memory, I was really deceived at that time!

    "Yuyu, guess what is in my hand?"

    "Huh? Is it an offering?!" He had just sold the amulet he made to a family of three. After Yuyu left, he looked at Xiao Lin in surprise and said, "Can it be true? Lin, you guy  ¡­¡±

    "Yeah, remember, this is an offering to the gods, don't keep it all to yourself" He quickly stuffed the envelope in his hand into the offering box, and Xiao Lin whispered in her ear: "Xiao Jing still has one more!  "

    "Rin" Yuyu looked at her with some emotion. The envelope just now seemed very full.

    Living expenses, living expenses these three words echoed in the mind of Yuyu who was already crazy about poverty!

    "I'm leaving first. Remember to buy something for Xiaojing, otherwise I won't let you go!" Xiao Lin stretched out his hand and flicked Yu Yuguangjie's forehead like a prank, and did not give Yu Yu a chance to retaliate.  Run outside the temple.
