Don't talk nonsense, this is the Emperor's Banner

Chapter 355 Best Friend
"Little dragon?"

Zhang Xuyang turned around on the spot. If he hadn’t been holding the windmill in his hand, he would have almost thought he was dreaming.

"If you don't come out, I'll go home and won't play with you anymore." Zhang Xuyang whispered to the people around him.

He is already in the second grade of junior high school, and he feels a little ashamed to say such things.

But these words were very useful. As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Shilong appeared beside him again.

"Wow~"

Zhang Xuyang was startled by Xu Shilong's sudden appearance.

But then he became excited again.

"Invisibility?"

Xu Shilong: ...

"I am a ghost. I am dead. As long as I don't show my form, you won't be able to see me..."

"Oh... I understand, I understand..."

Xu Shilong seemed to swear, you know nothing.

But he still held back and continued to explain: "After I was hit by a car that day, I became a ghost. Then I went home with you and saw my parents getting divorced... I saw your comics being taken away by your aunt, and you taped the letter under the drawer..."

Zhang Xuyang, who had been smiling playfully, gradually stopped laughing.

"...I met Mr. Shen, and he said he could help me fulfill my wish and let me come back to see you..."

After hearing what happened, Zhang Xuyang stood there looking a little uneasy.

"Are you afraid of me?" Xu Shilong asked.

Zhang Xuyang waved his hands quickly.

"No, no, why would I be afraid of you? We are best friends."

"Then what's wrong with you?" Xu Shilong was a little confused.

"Actually... I still hope that you can travel to another world and become a brave man who defeats the devil..." Zhang Xuyang said.

"I hope so, but... I can't help it. Maybe I don't have that luck." Xu Shilong sighed.

"Come on, I'll treat you to some milk tea."

"Do you have money?"

"Of course. I've saved a month's pocket money. I'll treat you to a big meal today." Zhang Xuyang said, patting his chest.

"Why did you save money for so long?" Xu Shilong asked curiously.

When children save money, they usually want to buy something big.

Zhang Xuyang scratched his head and said, "Identity V, I want to draw 198."

"Oh, I haven't played for a long time." Xu Shilong said.

Two people used to play this game together, but they were both relatively poor players. They basically had no worries about money and basically lived on free draws from game activities.

"Come on, go to my house and we'll play together." Zhang Xuyang put his hand on his shoulder again.

"Okay." Xu Shilong was also very happy. After all, he was still a child.

But after taking a few steps, Xu Shilong reacted.

"I will scare your parents." Xu Shilong said.

Zhang Xuyang patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, they won't be back until eight or nine o'clock. Just hide in my room and don't let them see you."

"Is it really possible?" Xu Shilong was surprised when he heard that.

"Of course, let's go, but let's go buy some milk tea first. It's my treat."

"I'm a ghost and can't eat." Xu Shilong said.

"But I see that you are clearly a living person. I can touch you, and you are out in the sun... Hey, you really have no shadow." Zhang Xuyang was shocked.

"Do you believe I'm a ghost now?"

"I believed it just now. I know that what you said is true." Zhang Xuyang said.

"How do you know I didn't lie to you?"

"I just know it."

……

Since I don’t need to buy milk tea, I will just go home.

"Ah, Xiaolong, after you died, I missed you very much and often dreamed about you. Did you miss me?" "Of course I did."

"Without you, my mom would scold me every time I took an exam. Before, when you were at the bottom, I could still argue that I did better than you, but now I can't even find a reason to argue."

"sorry."

"It's okay. I don't blame you."

"Yangyang, did you get the certificate for being a three-good student?"

"No, my grades are so bad that I like to daydream in class."

"But you draw very well. I like your paintings very much. You can become a cartoonist when you grow up. I wonder if I can still see the comics you draw by then..." Xu Shilong's eyes were full of longing.

"Will you be reincarnated after death? I thought you had already turned into a child..."

"Let me tell you, last time I saw a little kid who looked like you, I thought it was you. I talked to him and scared him so much that he started crying. His mother chased me for a long distance and scolded me, hehehe..."

"I don't know either. Everyone wanders around after death, but my brother said that it's because the road to the underworld is blocked and they can't reincarnate for the time being." Xu Shilong said.

"elder brother?"

"It's Mr. Shen."

Shen Siyuan had instructed him not to mention the Ten Thousand Souls Banner to outsiders, so he did not call him the Banner Master.

"So is he a god?" Zhang Xuyang leaned close to Xu Shilong's ear and asked in a low voice.

"He said he is not, but I think he is," said Xu Shilong.

"I think he is, too. He is so powerful. Not only can he see ghosts, but he can also make you appear in person, just like when you are alive..." Zhang Xuyang seemed extremely excited.

Xu Shilong nodded, thinking that not only could it appear in person, it could also fly in the sky.

"When you meet him, can you help me ask him if he can accept me as his apprentice?" Zhang Xuyang said expectantly.

"Okay." Xu Shilong agreed immediately.

"Hehe, Xiaolong, you are my best friend." Zhang Xuyang was very happy to hear that.

The two chatted all the way and then strolled back home.

Xu Shilong was very familiar with this road because his family used to live here, even in the same building and unit as Zhang Xuyang, but not on the same floor.

Xu Shilong lives upstairs from Zhang Xuyang's house.

It is also because of this that the two of them have been playing together since childhood, attending the same kindergarten, the same elementary school, and even the same class, so naturally they have a good relationship.

At that time, Xu Shilong often ate at Zhang Xuyang's house, and Zhang Xuyang's parents were also very good to him.

When we arrived at Zhang Xuyang's house, as expected, Zhang Xuyang's parents had not returned yet and the house was empty.

"Yangyang, are your parents busy now?"

"Yes, I have to work overtime every day and work until very late." Zhang Xuyang said.

"So what are you having for dinner?"

"I can cook by myself, and sometimes my parents will order takeout for me." Zhang Xuyang seems to have gotten used to this kind of life.

"You can cook by yourself?" Xu Shilong was surprised to hear that.

"Of course, my mom taught me. I have no choice but to learn. I'll be hungry. But I can only cook some simple things, such as fried rice, noodles, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes..."

“That’s already pretty impressive.”

"I think so too." Zhang Xuyang said arrogantly.

After entering the house, Zhang Xuyang directly pulled him into the room.

"Don't stay in the living room, there are surveillance cameras and my parents will be watching me at any time." Zhang Xuyang said.

In fact, the surveillance camera could not capture Xu Shilong, but Xu Shilong did not explain. He also wanted to see Zhang Xuyang's room to see if it was the same as before.

"Just sit down and play by yourself. I'll go make some rice. Do you want some?"

Zhang Xuyang inserted the windmill in his hand into the pen holder, and it formed a perfect match with the broken one.

"I told you I'm a ghost, I can't eat."

"That's right, then you play by yourself first." Zhang Xuyang said, and ran out.

Xu Shilong sat in front of Zhang Xuyang's desk, staring blankly at the messy things on the desk, feeling both familiar and unfamiliar.

Suddenly, I seem to have returned to a summer afternoon...
