Qi Sen is just a high school student after all. No matter how steady he is, he will still be excited when he hears the news about his biological parents.
Cancan said proudly: "Of course, we gods know everything. I even peeked at my second brother's book of life and death."
When the Book of Life and Death was mentioned, his face suddenly turned pale.
“But I don’t recognize any of the words on it.”
Cancan's words were like a stone dropped into a lake, creating ripples in Qi Sen's stagnant life.
But it was just a ripple.
He naturally didn't believe in things like the Book of Life and Death and gods that only appeared in TV dramas, but when Cancan mentioned these things, the naturalness in her tone and expression didn't sound like pretense.
After a long time, Qi Sen calmed down, rubbed Cancan's little head, and comforted her: "It's okay. Cancan, eat more rice and grow up quickly. You will be able to read when you grow up."
"But Daddy and Mommy didn't want me to grow up, nor did they let me learn to read. Every time I secretly followed Third Brother to school, Mommy and Daddy saw me and only said one word to Cancan."
"What?" Qi Sen asked.
Cancan coughed twice like a grown-up, mimicking his father's mature tone, and even pretended to touch his hair: "Canbao, there's nothing good about knowing how to read. Knowing how to read means you're sensible, and when you're sensible, you have to endure more. Daddy knows you don't understand, so from today on, you just need to remember the four words "no striving for progress" in your heart."
Qi Sen thought he had heard wrongly.
"Your father hopes you won't strive for progress?"
Cancan nodded heavily.
Qi Sen was silent.
This dad... is so weird.
When Qi Sen sighed, Xu Zhen outside the door seemed to have finished his rest and started cursing loudly again.
Cancan felt a headache after hearing this.
Although she didn't know where her second brother's gold, silver, jewelry, father and mother were, her master knew!
Thinking of Master Yan Wang, Cancan subconsciously shrank into a ball, his little hands trembling, his face at a loss, with one word written on his face from head to toe: coward.
The King of Hell was sent by her father when she was 100 years old. At that time, she was spoiled and lawless. She would cry and make a fuss if something didn't go her way, and she wouldn't listen to anyone.
Then, she met her nemesis - the King of Hell.
Cancan clenched her fists to cheer herself up.
It doesn't matter.
Although Master Yama is scary, his Book of Life and Death not only records the life and death of mortals, but also records in detail all the big and small events in their lives. It is more powerful than Yuan Ling Ming Jun's Book of Destiny. Master must know where the father and mother of gold, silver and jewelry are.
For the sake of her second brother's wealth and glory, she must be brave.
Be brave and don't be afraid of the King of Hell!
She took out two fairy peaches from the small cloth bag she was carrying and arranged them properly. She rummaged around in it with her little hands and pulled out a small porcelain bottle, which she dropped to the ground with a thud.
Cancan raised his hands, held his head high and stood in front of Qi Sen, looking like he was very brave and would protect his second brother even at the cost of his life.
"Don't be afraid, second brother. When Master Yanwang comes later, Cancan will protect you," Cancan said in a baby voice, "I am really brave!"
But the next second——
A gust of wind blew.
Cancan immediately put his two little hands on his chest and bowed, his little head almost lowered to the ground, and said in a sweet little voice: "Hello, Master."
Qi Sen was in deep thought.
It turns out this can be called bravery.
Where Qi Sen couldn't see, Yan Wang was holding a crab and looking at Cancan expressionlessly.
Cancan lowered her head, and her dark eyes would peek around from time to time.
"Why are you carrying a glass bottle when you are going through the tribulation?" The King of Hell was dressed in white, with long white hair and beard. He did not look like the cold-faced King of Hell in the eyes of the world, but rather like the amiable Taibai Star Lord in the Nine Heavens.
The glass bottle was Cancan's only way to call the King of Hell. When the glass bottle broke, the wind chimes in the King of Hell's palace would tinkle, disturbing his peace.
"It was given to Cancan by Yuan Ling."
The King of Hell snorted, "He has a good heart. He's willing to help you overcome the tribulation."
Cancan swallowed, raised his head and opened his lips, glanced at the crab in his master's hand, and swallowed back what he wanted to say.
Crabs..crabs were horrible.
She crawls very fast and has long claws like a snake. When she was a child, her butt was pinched and it hurt for a long time, leaving her with a scar.
Dad and my third brother both said that there were hundreds of crabs living in hell where the King of Hell lived, and that disobedient children would be taken there to have their butts pinched by the crabs.
Thinking of this, Cancan wanted to shrink into the corner.
How can there be such a scary place as hell!
"Just say what you want to say." said the King of Hell.
Cancan replied timidly: "Yuan Ling said that's not called helping."
"Um?"
"It's called cheating."
The King of Hell was suddenly speechless.
"Do you have any glass bottles? If so, bring them here." The King of Hell asked directly.
Although the Emperor, Empress and three princes had defied fate and come down to earth to protect Cancan from the calamity more than ten years ago, it was ultimately a calamity for the future little god, and they, the gods, could not interfere too much or they would suffer backlash.
"No more." Cancan shook her head obediently.
The King of Hell was relieved and his eyes fell on Qi Sen, who had been looking at Cancan strangely since a while ago. Although Qi Sen couldn't see him, the King of Hell still saluted according to the rules.
Seeing this, Cancan quietly took a few steps forward, grabbed Yan Wang's white shirt and asked cautiously: "Master, where are my father and mother in the human world?"
The King of Hell replied quickly: "I don't know."
Cancan pouted and said, "Daddy said that lying will lead to hell. Hell is so scary. Does Master want to go to hell?"
Yama: “Well, I think so.”
Cancan touched the back of his head with a bitter face.
How could she forget that the master lived in hell and he was not afraid of crabs.
Cancan was very distressed because he couldn’t argue with his master.
The King of Hell looked at the Supreme God Qisen and stopped teasing Cancan. His expression was more serious than usual.
As early as two hundred years ago when the calamity was set, the Emperor and Empress had revealed to him their idea of changing their fate against all odds. However, he had not expected that eighteen years ago, after the Emperor and Empress jumped into the Forgotten Immortal Sea, the three princes followed closely behind.
This catastrophe not only requires one to overcome the eight sufferings of life, but also requires enlightenment. If one fails to overcome this suffering and gain enlightenment, the end result will be nothingness.
They were like a group of soldiers rushing to their death. Even though they knew the road ahead was difficult and they would be in danger of death, they still rushed forward without any hesitation.
It's funny.
The Emperor and Empress were determined not to let Cancan learn to read and write, and instead forced her to memorize the "Growth Manual" which was boring and long and totally unsuitable for children to read.
One time, out of curiosity, I asked why Cancan was educated like this.
Isn’t it good for children to grow up early?
The old naughty Emperor was always frivolous, but that time he hid his smile and said seriously, "Although our Cancan is a little spoiled and noisy outside, he is very kind to us. If he finds something he likes to eat, he will never eat it alone, but always bring it back for us."
"If Canbao knew that her mother and I would descend to the mortal world a hundred years from now to protect her from disaster, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to accept it. People usually say that it's good for children to be sensible, but I actually hope that Cancan is a little stupid, a little selfish, and it would be best if she didn't understand anything."
The King of Hell sighed deeply.
"Cancan, who are you talking to?"
Qi Sen waited for a long time and finally couldn't help but ask.
"My Master, the King of Hell." Cancan pointed her little hand forward, "Don't be afraid, second brother. When I was in the Ninth Heaven, my brother held a higher official position than the King of Hell. Article 6 of the "Growth Manual" states that a higher official position can crush a person to death. You don't need to be afraid of him."
Yama:...
The old naughty boy, the Emperor, only taught Cancan these unruly things.
He has been keeping an eye on his notebook every day these past few years, fearing that he might make a mistake.
All my good intentions were eaten by a dragon.
Qi Sen followed Cancan's gaze and saw nothing except the wardrobe.
Yan Wang took a few steps forward and looked at Qi Sen carefully.
The once mighty God can only live in a dilapidated hut now, with annoying shouting and cursing outside the house.
The King of Hell threw the crab aside and patted the little princess on the head.
Since he was her master, he had to help her in some way. Besides, he couldn't bear to see Qisen the Supreme God being cursed unscrupulously.
The King of Hell lowered his head and said sternly, "Cancan, remember this, Master will only say this once."
Cancan's eyes lit up and she nodded excitedly.
"Your three brothers have different identities, all of them descendants of the gods. The Book of Life and Death cannot accurately predict their futures, but can only give a general direction. Your second brother is enduring the pain of having no one to care about his family. His biological father is Qi Xiuming, the richest man in Guhai City, and his mother is Jiang Ying, the queen of the entertainment industry."
As for the details, they are not in the Book of Life and Death.
Cancan nodded ignorantly.
"Since there's nothing else to do, Master is leaving. You should just follow Second Brother and avoid any trouble."
When Nian Jue was about to leave, Cancan suddenly hugged his calves tightly, clinging to him like a koala, and refused to let go.
The King of Hell felt a softening in his heart.
All these years of being a teacher were not in vain. When he saw that he was about to leave, he still knew to keep him.
Cancan seemed to be crying, and her shoulders, which were leaning against his legs, were shaking constantly.
Yan Wang squatted down quickly. Before he could say anything to comfort Cancan, he saw Cancan tremblingly stretch out a small hand, lowered his head and said timidly: "Master, give... give Cancan some money."
Yama:?
How could he forget that the little princess in front of him loved gold, silver and jewelry and valued money as her life.
oh.
It turned out that she wasn't crying just now, but was afraid of what would happen; she kept him not because she missed him, but for the money.
The King of Hell didn't say anything, but nodded at Cancan's forehead as if he was disappointed in her.
He is a little kid with a very smart personality, and this is just a little disappointing hobby.
Before Cancan could cry out in pain, the King of Hell suddenly disappeared.
Without support, Cancan's butt fell heavily to the ground with a bang.
Qi Sen on the side was stunned.
Just now, Cancan was floating in the air with her hands in her arms?
For the first time, he couldn't help but doubt whether the King of Hell that Cancan mentioned really existed. What happened the next second gradually dispelled his doubts, and he began to believe Cancan's theory of ghosts and gods.
In front of him, two neatly placed stacks of banknotes hung in the air, and slowly moved into his hands as if someone was handing him money.
Cancan, who was originally unhappy, raised her hands in surprise, "Uncle Black! Uncle White!"
Qi Sen pursed his lips and repeated Cancan's words calmly.
In the end, it’s the black uncle or the white uncle.
still--
Hey, uncle. Bye, uncle.
**
But now is not the time to dwell on this.
The 20,000 yuan sent from hell gave Qi Sen some confidence.
The next morning, he took Cancan out to look for a room, and they moved into the rental house in the afternoon. Because of the strange events of last night, Qi Sen gradually believed in the fairy tale. Since he was Cancan's fairy brother, his relationship with Cancan became closer, and he never mentioned sending her to the police station again.
Cancan was very happy.
Although the new house is not big, with only one bedroom and one living room, there are no bad people scolding her brother. Cancan runs back and forth in the house happily, and asks Qi Sen about anything new she sees.
While tidying up the bookshelf, Qi Sen patiently answered every question from Cancan.
Even though no one is with Cancan, the little princess is not bored.
She can entertain herself for a long time with a simple toy pony.
Either the pony has been running for a long time and needs to be fed water, or the pony has found his good friend the elephant and the two of them are racing together.
Qi Sen put his books in order and leaned on the desk, quietly watching Cancan squatting on the ground playing house.
He placed his hand on the newly bought Chemistry "Test Question Research", tapped the page with his index finger, and closed the book with determination. Qi Sen said in a calm voice: "Cancan, can I take you around?"
Cancan instantly became more energetic. Dada ran to his side, holding the pony's little hand above his head and shouted loudly: "Brother, Cancan is ready! Mama is ready too!"
Qi Sen laughed.
"Should we leave the pony at home? It might get lost outside."
Cancan shook her head and said in a baby voice, "But Xiao Ma will be scared if he is alone in the house."
Just like her.
But now she has found her brother!
She can be very brave~
"Okay, let's take him for a walk."
**
Qi Sen's rented house was a bit far from the school, but because it was in an older neighborhood, the rent wasn't high. At 1,200 yuan a month, it was considered quite cheap in a first-tier city.
As for the richest man’s father and the movie queen’s mother that Cancan kept talking about last night, he was just an ordinary person and had no right to meet them.
There are a few people with good family backgrounds in the school, and Qi Sen thought that he could only meet his biological parents through them.
There is a park near the community, and Qi Sen took Cancan there for a few walks.
On the way, Cancan asked: "Second brother, can you sleep with Cancan today?"
Qi Sen: "Cancan is so brave. If you want to sleep alone, Xiao Ma will accompany you."
Even if he is the fairy brother in Cancan's mouth, he should pay attention to the difference between men and women. Children nowadays are enlightened to gender awareness at an early age, and we cannot let Cancan blur these lines.
He can sleep on the sofa in the living room, but bathing is a big problem. Yesterday he just washed Cancan's feet, which was very casual.
This problem must be solved.
Although Cancan was a little depressed, she still agreed obediently.
The green in front of you comes into view, which makes you feel very happy.
On the tree-lined path, Cancan ran around in a light blue autumn gauze skirt. She wore a light blue knitted sweater on top, and the hem of her skirt was dotted with faint stars.
There is also a gauze cape attached to the skirt, which dances in the wind when she runs, looking smart and cute.
Pei Shen could see the children running tirelessly on the path from a long distance away.
When his eyes moved to the adults behind him, Pei Shen slowed down his pace.
It seems to be Qi Sen?
Pei Shen is different from Qi Sen.
He often visits school forums to read gossip and is a lively person.
In the forum, he almost found so many bugs in the posts comparing him and Qi Sen that he felt bad every time he read them, but he couldn't help but read them.
Not only was he annoyed by people comparing him to Qi Sen's arrogant expressionless face, but what was even more annoying was——
He hasn’t competed in the new school idol election yet?
Pei Shen didn't understand.
How could someone like Qi Sen, who had to rely on "Test Questions Research" to cram for chemistry, be worthy of being compared with him?
After confirming that the person in front of him was indeed Qi Sen, Pei Shen turned around and left without hesitation.
Just after taking two steps, the child in front of Qi Sen suddenly trotted over to him, hugged his hand and shook it affectionately, saying, "Third brother, you are here! Cancan has found his second brother!"
Pei Shen frowned and pulled his hand away.
What the hell is Third Brother?
If he is the third brother, then Qi Sen is his elder brother?
How could this be possible? Even if Qi Sen knelt before him and begged him, he would not acknowledge this brother.
Pei Shen: "I don't know you."
Cancan was anxious.
"Third brother, I'm Cancan, your sister."
Pei Shen didn't like crying and making trouble, so he took a step back and frowned, saying, "I don't know any Cancan."
Cancan stared at Pei Shen for a long time without moving.
In the past, the third brother always liked to hold her in his arms, coaxing her to eat while praising her as the best little princess in the world.
Daddy and Mommy love to call her Canbao, eldest brother calls her Cancan, but third brother always calls her Little Princess.
Cancan thought for a moment, raised her head and said, "I am the little princess. Little princess, can't you remember me too?"
Pei Shen looked up and down at the little girl in a blue dress in front of him.
Her appearance gradually resembled a princess I had seen before. If I looked carefully, I could actually see a sense of familiarity.
After a while, he said, "I know the princess."
"You're imitating Princess Elsa from Frozen, right?"
The author has something to say:
Pei Shen: Princess Elsa - the top female star in the children's circle, the object of imitation for countless children.
