My beast can't be a demon.

Night has fallen.

This should have been the ghosts' favorite moment.

However, today, this ghost-raising hut seems particularly clean.

Rustle.

Rustle.

In the corridor, there was a rustling sound, and from time to time there was a jingle of metal colliding - this was the sound of keys colliding.

The ghosts trembled and huddled in the corner.

Since the afternoon, a terrifying demon has descended on this mountain hut.

It has countless tentacles, wriggling wantonly under the dim light.

It will capture all the ghosts along the way and stuff them into a green pocket.

Behind the demon, in that huge green pocket, countless ghosts are twisting miserably.

Click, click.

Suddenly, there was a sound of a key opening the door.

Squeak--!

The door was opened a crack.

The next second, an egg covered with unknown patterns was rolled up by a tentacle and thrown in.

The ghosts trembled in panic.

This indicates that the devil is coming.

Hanabi opened the door of the room and found that there were no ghosts around Benben.

It scratched its hat in distress.

Those ghosts were so scared that they didn't dare to have any desire to attack, so they ignored Benben's "taunting".

Hanabi raised the vines, looked around the room, and announced: [I'm here to clean the room! ]

All the ghosts were silent and didn't dare to make any sound.

Hmm.

Since these ghosts don't bother me, there is no need to catch them.

Hanabi crawled into the room with her roots and began to clean happily.

Little Grass is in a good mood today.

At the end, it didn't forget to wax the wooden floor with mucus.

Squeak.

Hanabi rolled Benben and crawled towards the door.

Behind it was a bag made of vines.

In the bag were ghosts who had given up struggling.

Hanabi, caught all the troublemakers.

After Xiaocao left, the ghosts that had been hiding carefully poked their heads out.

Just when they wanted to celebrate each other's survival, the door was suddenly opened.

A seal hat poked out from the crack of the door: [Don't get it dirty, I'll come to check later. ]

After saying this, Hua Huo left with peace of mind.

In the study on the first floor, Zhou Lu was looking through Professor Ouyang's research materials.

The tail feathers of the ghost dragon were placed in front of Professor Ouyang, and a stone emitting a blue glow was placed under it.

This was the ghost stone that Xiao Xi mentioned.

Ouyang Xun kept looking through the materials, and the only time he spoke was to ask Zhou Lu about the whereabouts of the ghost dragon's body.

After the death contract was reached, the ghost dragon attached to the tail feathers, and even if its body was destroyed, it would no longer have any effect on it.

So after Zhou Lu returned to the academy, he took the time to go to the mountain and river secret realm.

He buried the body of the little titmouse on the mountains of Shanchuan, which was considered to be a return home for the little titmouse.

Ouyang Xun did not show much regret for this, but took out a magnifying glass to carefully look at the tail feathers, and then continued to look through the information.

What huge secret seems to be hidden in it?

Zhou Lu recalled what he saw and heard in the cave at that time.

He did not feel anything unusual at that time.

"Don't take it to heart, the teacher is like this."

Jiang Shuqi, who was standing beside him, said softly.

"He always forgets himself when he is doing research, and he will unknowingly complete the research of his students." Jiang Shuqi recalled her student life, with a slight smile on her face.

"Speaking of which." She looked at Zhou Lu again, "Did you know about Lin Dong's disappearance?"

It's finally here.

Zhou Lu's heart moved.

Lin Dong is a rising star in beast control, and with a huge fan base, his disappearance can be said to have attracted everyone's attention.

In the days when Zhou Lu came back, all the online forums that could be accessed were discussing this case enthusiastically.

So in those days, whether to ease his mood or to avoid the limelight, Zhou Lu did not show up the whole time.

Looking back at the whole process, Zhou Lu suddenly felt that he seemed to have left a lot of loopholes.

There was no way. It was the first time to do such a thing. Even if he was cautious, there were still omissions.

But he had already made up various reasonable reasons for this.

The most important thing was that he had no connection with Lin Dong on the surface.

But what surprised Zhou Lu was that the investigators did not seem to even visit the relevant personnel.

Gradually, the matter came to an end.

Now, in addition to the fans still clamoring, the official definition given was missing and still under investigation.

Zhou Lu immediately understood that it might be because of the involvement of the immortal, and someone stopped the further investigation of the matter.

Jiang Shuqi suddenly mentioned this matter, which still surprised Zhou Lu.

Fortunately, his expression management has always been good.

"I heard about it." Zhou Lu said calmly, "I had a beast duel with him, and the ghost dragon won."

The state of the little sparrow's tail feathers has clearly shown that Zhou Lu has reached the covenant of the dead, so Zhou Lu did not hide it completely.

Sincerity is sometimes the best disguise for lies.

Zhou Lu said the truth, so he naturally has a clear conscience.

"I didn't expect that he would disappear." Zhou Lu said, and even maliciously speculated, "Isn't it because he was defeated by me?"

Jiang Shuqi adjusted her glasses and said with a smile, "Maybe it's true."

She seemed to want to say something more, but at this moment, a black ghost suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.

Jiang Shuqi was obviously shocked, and the books in her hands fell to the ground.

[Ding, mission failed]...

At this moment, a system prompt sounded in Zhou Lu's ears.

This is the system prompt for failure to kill Jiang Shuqi.

Before Zhou Lu could react, a net bag quickly caught the ghost.

[Owner! I'm done cleaning! ](*^▽^*)

Hanabi, who was full of harvest, happily showed off her achievements to her master.

That green pocket woven with vines was filled with all kinds of ghosts.

I wonder if I can learn a few skills this time.

Zhou Lu thought to himself, leaned over and rubbed Hanabi's hat, and said with a smile: "Then let's take a rest first."

Hanabi patted the leaves to show that she wasn't tired.

With that said, it released the shackles of the pocket and released all the captured ghosts.

The ghosts rushed out like the wind and disappeared into the darkness in a short time.

It's like running away from some scary guy.

Hanabi looked at the escaped ghosts and held up her hat.

So interesting...

Do you want to arrest him again?

Benben sensed Hanabi's thoughts and immediately shook wildly to express his dissatisfaction.

Its vibration formed a certain resonance with the Hanabi vines, and it actually made a sound like a bell.

This transformed Hanabi's tail into a rattlesnake's tail.

"I see!"

At this moment, Ouyang Xun slammed the table.

He looked at Zhou Lu excitedly and said, "We'll set off tomorrow! Go there and have a look!"

"Huh?" Zhou Lu, who was about to settle the reward, was a little dumbfounded.
