Chapter 143 It’s Too Difficult to Be a Human (2-in-1)
Let’s talk about Shu Yao’s side.
Not long after Lao Litou left, another person came.
The person who came here was pale, with a circle of black and blue under his eyes that was particularly conspicuous. He was listless and had a numb expression with a bit of sluggishness. He looked like a female ghost who often wanders in the dark night.
Her name is Shen Qianxiao, a native of Dijing, and she came here for Shu Yao.
"Master, please help me exorcise ghosts." Shen Qianxiao said in a slow voice, "There is a ghost in my mirror."
Shu Yao glanced at her. She didn't have any yin energy in her body, but she nodded and said, "Okay."
There are ghosts and non-ghosts, they look like humans but not humans, and the host and guest are reversed. This customer's home is not simple.
Shen Qianxiao clenched her fingers and lowered her head again: "Master, I would like to ask you to come to my house as soon as possible to take a look."
"It seems that you are in a hurry." Shu Yao smiled with a hint of fun in her smile, "Let's go!"
She was also curious about the person in this customer's family.
Shen Qianxiao was silent all the way. When she got home, she fumbled in her pocket several times before finding the key and opening the door.
Inside, there is a cozy one-bedroom-one-living room with lush green plants on the balcony. On the dining table are steaming milk and two round, hot eggs.
The scene in front of me seemed like someone had known for a long time that she would come back and had made preparations in advance.
After Shen Qianxiao entered the house, her sluggish spirit lifted, she quickly walked to the full-length mirror in the living room, and shouted at the mirror: "Come out."
The person in the mirror is exactly the same as her. The sameness refers to the appearance. From the perspective of mental state, the person in the mirror is more vivid.
Shu Yao looked around. The room was neat and tidy, and with the milk and eggs on the table, it looked like there was a snail girl instead of a ghost.
The Taotie head at her feet was waving its tail leisurely and moved its nose: "Boss, the one outside is more like a ghost than the one in the mirror, but I didn't feel any Yin Qi in the room, not even a little evil Qi. , but there is indeed something strange about this person, what is going on?"
"Keep reading." Shu Yao said slowly and found a seat to sit down.
Taotiou shook his tail, lay on the ground, and looked curiously at Shen Qianxiao.
These two don't look like they are here to solve the problem, but more like they are just trying to get away with it.
Shen Qianxiao struggled a lot, but there was no movement in the mirror. She became impatient and threatened: "Don't think that it will be fine if you don't come out and pretend to be mute. This time I invited a master to come. If you don't want to be Take it away and come out quickly."
The person in the mirror finally showed a different appearance. He blinked and looked past her to Shu Yao.
Shu Yao was not surprised by this scene, nodded and smiled slightly.
The person in the mirror suddenly felt bad.
The mirror twisted, and one foot stepped out first. A man who looked the same as Shen Qianxiao came out and waved his hands towards Shu Yao: "Oh, Master, I am a good person. This is a misunderstanding. A misunderstanding."
Shu Yao looked at the two twins in front of her. Under her dark eyes, she saw not only their looks, but also an invisible line connecting them.
Contract line!
Shen Qianxiao didn't want to pay any attention to the person who walked out of the mirror and called him a ghost. Instead, she looked excited and rushed towards the mirror with her head buried in the mirror.
Then there was a "bang" sound, and Shen Qianxiao covered her forehead, which was bruised again, and hammered the mirror in annoyance.
The person in the mirror put his hand on her shoulder and sighed: "Oh! You said that we only have faces and a bit of beauty. You have to go on a blind date tomorrow. If you don't take good care of your face, the blind date will become obscene. Mom. I will definitely talk about you and my third aunt again, your mouth is so rude, you can go back and see how she arranges you."
Shen Qianxiao pushed her away angrily and yelled: "A blind date? What a piece of shit! That man's height and width are the same, and his head is brighter than your face."
"Okay, okay, no blind date." The person in the mirror was obviously used to her frizzy look, and he smoothly smoothed her hair, "I'll teach you a way, and Mom will be able to deal with it. As for the third aunt, she wants to ask Regarding your blind date, just ask her when her son will give her a grandson?"
Shen Qianxiao was comforted by her, and her face slowly calmed down.
The person in the mirror then continued: "It hurts a lot when you hit your forehead. I'll boil an egg for you and rub it."
After seeing this while watching the show, Shu Yao stood up and handed over the warm eggs on the table.
The person in the mirror thanked him, took it, peeled off the shell, wrapped it in a handkerchief, rubbed Shen Qianxiao's head, and said smoothly: "Don't bother, you can't go back to the mirror anyway, so you might as well be a human being." "
This last sentence may sound a bit like a curse at first glance, but in fact it is really the truth.
Shen Qianxiao turned around angrily and threw her hand away: "I don't want to be a human being anymore. What good are you people?"
"Isn't this what you want to be?" The person in the mirror put down the egg in his hand and touched his nose.
Shen Qianxiao glared at her: "No, I want to change back. I would rather be a dog than a human."
The Pomeranian raised by the neighbor next door is fed and run around, so he doesn't have to worry about anything but silly fun.
In this regard, Taotiou was cued. He didn't need anyone to run around, but having the boss to feed him was indeed more comfortable than being a human.
The person in the mirror advised: "There is no way to change it back. Don't worry, we might change it back at some time. This matter cannot be rushed."
"Who said no?" Shen Qianxiao knew her little calculation, rolled her eyes, strode to Shu Yao's side, and begged, "Master, at first I was obsessed with people's identities, but now I have I realize my mistake and ask Master to help us put things right."
With that said, he told the whole story.
This started a month ago. Shen Qianxiao was a programmer. She often slept later than a dog and woke up earlier than a chicken. When the company called her, she would rush over against the clock.
In addition, the age has crossed the threshold of twenty-five, and the parents in the family have issued many calls to urge marriage, and have met many blind dates. However, the more they meet, the more desperate they are for marriage.
Shen Qianxiao often looks at herself in the mirror and laments that it is too difficult to be a human being.
Unexpectedly, one day not long after, when Shen Qianxiao was looking in the mirror, the self in the mirror suddenly spoke and asked her if she would like to exchange identities, and she would get everything she wished for.
Shen Qianxiao, whose brain nerves are sometimes thicker than telephone poles, was not afraid and didn't feel anything was wrong. She nodded and agreed.
The next day, when Shen Qianxiao woke up as usual, she found that her room was unprecedentedly quiet.
Her house is located in an old community and is not soundproofed. In the past, it was often very early in the morning before people woke up, and there was a lot of people outside, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep.
After Shen Qianxiao became confused, she got the answer in front of the mirror.
Outside the mirror, stood a person who looked exactly like her. The person proudly told her that from now on, she could only live in the mirror, and she would take over his identity.
Shen Qianxiao felt the unprecedented silence in the mirror, raised her head excitedly, and asked: "Are you serious? Hey, I have wanted to take a long vacation for a long time, do nothing, and just sleep until the sky is dark."
After the excitement, Shen Qianxiao, with the sense of responsibility of a social animal, solemnly reminded: "It's almost eight o'clock now, you will be late for work."
At this moment, the Mirror Demon, who has acquired the identity of a human, still doesn’t know what she will face.
"Master, I am no longer a human being. The world is not fun at all." Shen Qianxiao, to be precise, should be the person in the mirror, also known as the mirror demon, with his mouth pursed and his eyes full of tears.
When she was in the situation she was in, the world in the mirror had everything, except that there was no life or popularity at all, it was quiet and silent, and her life was exactly the same every day.
She was tired of the world in the mirror. Through the mirror, she envied the excitement outside.
But little did she know that being a human would be too lively.
Not only do you have to deal with intrigues in the workplace, but the two words you hear the most every day when you go to work are overtime, and don’t leave the company until dark.
It's hard to find a vacation, and you still have to deal with the blind date. If you don't go, you will have to face your parents' nagging, earnest words, and the tricks of the three aunts and six grandmas.
She has never met a normal person during a blind date.
The salary is four to five thousand a month, the money is not high, and the person is still lonely, so I want to marry a nanny who will take good care of her;
There are also two cups of milk tea that require AA, but they have to show off their dignity in front of others, and they have to show off their magnanimity to outsiders. In private, they have to pay three times to transfer a bottle of mineral water;
Another person started by saying that the bride price was feudal and backward, but turned around and said that the dowry must have a house and a car, and it is best if the family is an only child;
The weirdest thing is that there is a boy with makeup that is more exquisite than her. He is gentle and considerate, but another boy comes in the middle. One of them you listen to me, the other one I don't listen to, I don't listen, you run away from him. Chase, leaving the mirror demon stunned.
After this month of torture inside and out, the Mirror Demon has completely lost the idea of being a human being.
However, when she chose to become a human, she had already made a contract with the real Shen Qianxiao, and she no longer belonged to the world in the mirror.
So no matter how she tries, she can't go back.
The mirror demon drooped his eyebrows and spat weakly.
"This is too tragic. People are so pitiful." The gluttonous leader showed pity.
Shu Yao also showed some sympathy in her eyes.
Think about Xuan Li, he wouldn't be so miserable!
When Shu Yao thought of this, she tried hard not to raise the corners of her mouth too high.
At this moment, the real Shen Qianxiao felt the mirror demon's experience, but, "Look, you can't say that completely. Think about the movies and TV series you have watched during this time, the amusement parks you have not been to, and You have only tasted a few of the delicacies in these streets and alleys. Otherwise, why don’t you think about it again? There are benefits to being a human being."
Over the past month, Shen Qianxiao has finally lived the life she dreamed of, sleeping when she eats and eating when she wakes up. There is everything in the mirror, and the taste of the food she has eaten can be perfectly replicated. She could also relive the movie, it was quiet, and no one would disturb her. She had not had enough of this magical life.
In other words, the mirror demon lost because of its lack of knowledge. Although the world in the mirror can replicate the outside world in equal proportions, it must be experienced in person.
No, I was blinded by the temptation of the moment and lost myself in it.
Mirror Demon has heard the same words countless times, and now he will not believe her.
"I won't listen. Don't try to seduce me. Give me my identity quickly." The mirror demon turned his back angrily.
Now the situation has changed. In the past, it was the mirror demon who tried every possible means to get the person's identity. Now, Shen Qianxiao is tempted by all means just to stay in the mirror longer.
Shen Qianxiao blinked and said, "How about we discuss it again?"
The Mirror Demon straightened his back, indicating that he would never change his answer: "No need to discuss."
For a melon-eating crowd, after eating melon until this point, Shu Yaode spoke up: "The contract was made voluntarily by the two of you at the beginning. Now, it can only be canceled with the consent of both of you."
When the mirror demon heard this, his straight spine bent, he turned around slowly, and whispered in a low voice: "I was sorry for you before and deceived your identity. As long as you agree to exchange with me, what conditions do you want to put forward?" I agree to everything."
When Shen Qianxiao heard this, her eyes lit up and her little head turned quickly: "Otherwise we work in shifts, you work a day shift, I work a day shift, the blind date, you see one, I see the other."
"Don't even think about it." The mirror demon was so angry that his face bulged.
"Let's discuss it further!" Shen Qianxiao held her arm and shook her left and right.
…
In the end, Shen Qianxiao agreed to terminate the contract. After being lazy for a month, she still had to shoulder her responsibilities.
And she also missed her nagging father and mother at home.
However, she still did not give up the idea of taking shifts, and kept using sugar-coated bullets in an attempt to corrode the mirror demon's "heart of stone."
When Shu Yao left, she happened to hear Shen Qianxiao tempting her with crayfish and hot pot.
The glutton's stomach growled: "Boss, I'm hungry."
When we were on the Tianqiao today during the day, the gluttonous guy never stopped talking, and he visited every food stall no less than twice.
The big red envelope given by Tan Nianshuang was half broken.
Shu Yao glared at him. He couldn't grow long just by eating, and he didn't have many strings in his head.
The gluttonous head drooped, looking weak and pitiful in such a big lump.
"Okay, let's go to the Baiwei Chicken in the film and television city." Shu Yao was still thinking about the other younger brother who was working hard outside at the moment, "Ao Hen is about to finish filming."
