The time they get together is always short-lived. After Shen Ming and the two girls got tired of each other for a week, it was time to do serious things.
Shen Ming stopped in time. If he continued like this, he might really fall into the land of gentleness.
After sending Ye Xinxia back to the Parthenon, Aitutu was also called back by his father, and Shen Ming became a loner again.
…
"Hello? What's going on?"
Shen Ming was about to go out that day when he received a call from Mo Fan.
"Are you really planning to give yourself a vacation? Go out for a walk? Come on a casual trip to have adventures and find some excitement?"
Mo Fan on the phone was obviously in a good mood. There had been no trouble during this period. Mo Fan was obviously living a good life.
"Heh...you want to go find Lao Zhao, right?" Shen Ming guessed what the other party was thinking at once.
Why don't you go on a quick trip and spend enough time in the World University Competition? Mo Fan has always been a talkative guy, saying one thing and doing another.
"It's not interesting. You guessed it right away. You said that Lao Zhao's life is not in danger, and I believed it. But even so, I'm still a little worried. Even if the chance of finding this guy is slim, you also know my character.
, I will never give up on my brother even if I die!" Mo Fan's tone was very firm, but this is Mo Fan, if others treat him sincerely, he can also treat others well at all costs.
"I still have some things to deal with here. I'll let you know when they're done. Lao Zhao is also my brother!"
"Okay, then I'll take the monkeys for a ride first and then talk about it!"
After doing this, Mo Fan hung up the phone. Shen Ming also sighed, and then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth unconsciously.
…
Sanli Street, this should be regarded as Shen Ming’s fourth time coming to Sanli Street.
This seemingly bustling street may hide the biggest secret in the world. But today Shen Ming came not to explore its secrets, but to return something.
She had never been available before, but Shen Mingke had never been a person who broke his word. It was impossible that he had really prostituted Xue Miaomiao's soul vessel in vain.
Having entered the inner street twice before, Shen Ming was already familiar with it, but strangely, the alley that originally had only a few winding turns was much more complicated than before.
Shen Ming walked around for a long time, but Shen Ming realized that he had not turned out of this complicated passage. Fortunately, Shen Ming knew the direction of the inner street, so he simply stopped dilly-dallying and moved in an instant to the empty, somewhat eerie inner street.
It is no different from before. Compared with the crowds on the outer street, most people in the inner street don't like to run here except for some people who know its existence.
And compared with before, the inner street now seems to be even more empty than before. Originally there were a few scattered shops on this street, but now at a glance, they are all closed! But what is strange is that
, no matter how long it has been abandoned, there is a tall clay sculpture of a human figure placed in front of the store. I don’t know what its purpose is. It does not seem to be used to attract customers, because it is more scary this way.
"Someone renovated this place..." Shen Ming muttered to himself.
Even if the business here was not good to begin with, the few remaining shops have been operating for so many years, so there is no reason for them to collapse all at once.
It seemed that the intricate alleyway when I came in was built by someone later, just to prevent people from entering.
"Interesting... I don't know if Xue Miaomiao's store has collapsed. If it does, then I will break my promise." Shen Ming didn't think too much, although he was curious about who was eyeing the inner street, but
It probably has nothing to do with him.
The Lord of Kunlun asked Shen Ming to consider something. To be honest, Shen Ming didn't want to agree at all. The reason why he hesitated at that time was just to save his life. After all, who knows whether the other party will become murderous and kill him.
As for the dragon-slaying plan that the Lord of Kunlun mentioned in cooperation with Liu Bowen, Shen Ming did not know whether what he described was true or not. It was possible that the matter was true, but the other party must have concealed something from him.
The possibility that humans and demons can share the same hatred is not non-existent, but it is definitely slim. What is the trick in this? Shen Ming is not strong enough to find out the truth. If he can, Shen Ming does not want to know the truth.
…
When he was about to reach the end of the inner street, Shen Ming stopped again and frowned slightly. What came into view was a huge iron box. This was supposed to be where the weird ginkgo tree was, but now it was.
It turned into a closed iron box.
Someone deliberately protected this tree, or isolated it. For so many years, this tree has remained here. Although the people in the inner street know the weirdness of this tree, they have never protected it like this.
Get up and pass.
It seems that someone is indeed planning an inner street. To be precise, it should be a secret street.
Shen Ming thought for a while and didn't stay too long. After passing the iron box, Xue Miaomiao's store also appeared in front of Shen Ming's eyes.
Fortunately, Xue Miaomiao's shop did not close down. Apart from seeing clay sculptures one after another along the way, Shen Ming really didn't even have an open shop. He was really afraid of Xue Miaomiao.
Miaomiao's store also closed down.
Compared with last time, Xue Miaomiao's store has not changed much. The store door is closed, but there is a dim light from candles in the store.
Shen Ming knocked on the door, but no one responded, which felt a little strange.
Activate the perspective effect of Eye of Dawn, and through the wooden door, there is no one else in the shop except for a candle.
But why did no one light the lights? Shen Ming suddenly had a bad feeling. Instead of entering through the front door, he went around to the backyard wall and jumped in.
"ah!"
The moment Shen Ming landed, a woman's scream suddenly came from the side.
I saw the woman closing her eyes tightly, waving the hoe in her hand, as if Shen Ming was hitting her.
"I go!"
Shen Ming grabbed the hoe with his backhand and took a closer look. Isn't this person Xue Miaomiao? What was he doing in the backyard with the hoe?
"My family has no money. I just came back from Thailand. Please spare my life!"
Seeing that she was subdued, Xue Miaomiao threw away the hoe, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"I...you raise your head first and see who I am?"
Shen Ming was quite speechless. Although he only got along with this girl for a short time, he knew her eccentric character.
"Don't ask for the uncle! I know the rules of this house, and I can't survive if I see his appearance! I really closed my eyes the whole time just now, I definitely didn't see the appearance of the uncle! Wuwu..."
While talking and crying, Xue Miaomiao looked so pitiful that Shen Ming couldn't help laughing, as he wanted to tease her.
"Sir, I'm not here to ask for money. I'm here to rob you of sex. How pretty is this little lady? How about you accompany me tonight?"
Shen Ming deliberately raised his voice and said in a very treacherous and lewd tone.
"Uncle, please stop teasing me. I really just came back from Thailand. In fact... I was actually a man before!"
Xue Miaomiao also took the risk and became a half-woman demon!
"Really? Then I'm even more excited, what should I do?"
"Ah, you are really a pervert who doesn't choose anything... a hero!" Xue Miaomiao really felt that she could not escape her bad luck. She clenched her pink fists tightly, and she was already prepared in her heart to fight to the death.
Prepare.
Shen Ming also saw the other party's actions and knew that he had gone too far, so he quickly said: "I'm just teasing you, I am not interested in you, I am Shen Ming!"
"Ah? Shen Ming?"
Hearing what Shen Ming said, Xue Miaomiao slowly raised her head in fear. The moment she saw Shen Ming, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed directly to the ground.
"Why are you scaring me when you have nothing to do? Do you really think that this girl is scared?" Xue Miaomiao patted her proud little breasts, looking happy.
"I'm here to return the soul vessel. I won't let you have such a valuable thing for nothing. But let me tell you...why are you in such a miserable state now? Even if the store is closed, why are you using this hoe in the backyard?
" Shen Ming took a look at the backyard. Grandpa Xue Miaomiao's grave was still there, but there was a pit beside it.
Xue Miaomiao waved her hands, sighed, stood up, patted her clothes and said:
"No, if you think there are any valuable things in the store, you can take them all, but now there aren't many things left in this store."
"What's going on? You're digging a hole next to your grandfather's grave. You don't want to bury yourself alive, do you? It's not easy for one person to complete this thing. How about I help you? But seeing how scared you were just now, I don't know if you have
Don’t you have the courage?” Shen Ming asked tentatively in a joking tone.
Hearing this, Xue Miaomiao couldn't help but rolled her eyes at Shen Ming, and said angrily: "You really want this girl to die? Your conscience is really deep in the dog's belly. After all, I have helped you.
Okay?"
"I was just joking, but to be honest, I haven't been to the inner street for a long time. I didn't expect it to change so much. There used to be a few shops, but now it seems that you are the only one left. The other shops are in front of
There are weird clay sculptures placed there. And that tree, it seems that someone specially isolated it, what's going on?" Shen Ming looked at Xue Miaomiao, expecting what the other party would react.
"Doing business in the inner streets has been a loss all these years. Who would stay here if they wanted to get rich? They... are just trying to survive." Xue Miaomiao bent down and picked up the hoe again, looking a little sad.
"Can you tell me what happened?" Shen Ming asked in a low voice.
It seems that Xue Miaomiao is in trouble. Shen Ming always respects me and he respects others. Xue Miaomiao has helped him. If it is within his power, Shen Ming will not stand there and do nothing.
