it's harmonious

Zhou Xingyu didn't necessarily like cats. The Zhou family saw people and cats living in harmony because Jin Yan was in Zhou Xingyu's body at the time, but Jin Yan really wanted to see the Zhou brothers, especially Zhou Xingjie.The monster disappeared, but the Zhou family still had a magical mask. If Zhou Xingjie continued to use the power of the mask, it would cause irreparable consequences.

The old butler asked him to take the black cat, but Jin Yan hesitated for a moment, mainly because the black cat's leg injury was not healed, and it was inconvenient to run around.He consulted the black cat's opinion, and finally agreed.

"I'll see you off." Li Gui packed up the dishes and came to Jin Yan.

"The old butler will send a car to pick me up." Jin Yan said hastily, "I've troubled you too much recently, and I'm already very sorry."

"It's okay, I'm free." Li Gui said, regardless of Jin Yan's objection, he took the coat and keys and went out first, "Wait for me at the gate of the community."

Jin Yan couldn't stop him, so he had no choice but to tell the old butler not to pick it up, and then set off with the black cat.The black cat agreed to go to Zhou's house, just because of the cat food there, but when he thought of going to coax the children, he felt a little depressed.

"You human beings are really worrying about cats!"

Jin Yan didn't expect that Li Gui would take the initiative to ask to send him off. He looked so indifferent yesterday, so he thought he was very unhappy.When he arrived at the gate of the community, Jin Yan saw a strange car parked beside him, with the window rolled down, a generous face appeared, and he smiled enthusiastically at him: "Jin Yan, I didn't expect to meet you here Are you ready to go out?"

It turned out to be the colleague who called him last night. Jin Yan greeted him: "Brother Yu, long time no see!"

"Why are you holding the cat... are you taking it out to play?" Brother Yu blinked, "If you're not busy, come to my house today!"

The windows in the back of the car were rolled down, and two young girls were sitting side by side, one was Brother Yu's girlfriend, and the other was a stranger, with a melon-shaped face, low-cut suspenders, short skirts, and sunglasses, and noticed Jin Yan's eyes After that, he looked over with a haughty face.

"Jin Yan, this is the Ms. Zhao I told you about. Now she is a very popular anchor on the Internet!"

"Oh..." Jin Yan could only see half of Miss Zhao's face, to be precise, he could only see the chin, which reminded him of the female ghost from yesterday, and he suddenly got stuck.

Brother Yu's girlfriend saw that Jin Yan didn't say a word, and was about to break the awkward atmosphere. Ms. Zhao patted Brother Yu's chair and said, "You are busy with work, let's play by ourselves."

"Actually, it's not..." Brother Yu wanted to explain a few words.

A few people were talking, and a sleek red sports car drove out of the gate of Jiajing Community. Jin Yan was in no mood to continue chatting with his colleagues. He nodded slightly and said, "Sorry, I really have something to do today, and we will meet again next time."

Brother Yu watched him get into the luxury car with dumbfounded eyes, almost thought that something was wrong with his eyes, so he hurriedly took his girlfriend for a ride to calm down.Li Gui saw from the rearview mirror that the car was driving in the completely opposite direction to himself, and asked seemingly casually, "Your friend?"

"My former colleague said that he would introduce me to a girlfriend when he was still in the company." Jin Yan was a little helpless, "I wish I had told him clearly..."

As he said that, Jin Yan's atmosphere was not right, he glanced at the people around him quietly, saw that Li Gui's lips were tightly pursed, and he didn't really want to hear gossip, so he consciously closed his mouth.

The sports car accelerated suddenly, Li Gui's face was a little gloomy, and he drove the car very fast.Jin Yan put on his seat belt silently, and the two of them didn't talk all the way. Not long after, the Zhou family's mansion was in front of them.

Li Gui sent Jin Yan to the door of the old house, but he didn't intend to go in.He came out with a camera and said that he was going to collect folk songs, and he would pick people up later.

The old butler led Jin Yan into the living room, and Zhou Xingjie came out in a wheelchair.His leg injury is still not healed, and the weird grimace still stands on his shoulder.

"Master Zhou." Jin Yan saluted him, noticing that the grimace was a little lighter than before, maybe because it was daytime, it seemed vaguely invisible.

"Mr. Jin." Zhou Xingjie exchanged some pleasantries with him, and then focused his attention on the black cat, "You have a very special cat. Just yesterday, it saved Xingyu and me."

The black cat snorted softly: "Meow~"

Jin Yan stroked its fur and asked, "Where's Master Xingyu? The butler asked me to bring the cat and asked him to accompany Master Xingyu."

The Zhou family had already prepared fresh cat food. The black cat had a stinky face before, but seeing the attitude of the other party, it dragged its stumped legs and ran over.Jin Yan held back his laughter and said to the old butler, "Its hind leg is injured, please help me look at it."

The old butler responded and led the black cat upstairs.

Only Jin Yan and Zhou Xingjie were left in the living room.Zhou Xingjie said with a little apology: "Mr. Jin, you are a friend that my father values ​​very much. Over the years, we have not taken care of many things well. Please also ask Haihan."

"What did Young Master Zhou say?" Jin Yan hurriedly said, "The Zhou family has always taken good care of me, and I will always remember it in my heart."

"My mother passed away due to illness a few days ago. I will officially hold a press conference in a few days. From now on, I will take care of the Zhou family." Zhou Xingjie sighed, "When my father was alive, he always hoped that we could become good friends with Mr. Jin." Friends, if you need any help in the future, please feel free to come to me, although I am not as capable as my father, I will definitely try my best to help."

Of course, Jin Yan knew that Mrs. Lan did not die a few days ago, and also understood that Zhou Xingjie said this because he was going to announce the news to the public, so he looked sad: "Please forgive me."

Zhou Xingjie responded politely, and then said: "I carefully read the notes left by my father, and found that Mr. Jin is a different person. In fact, I realized this when I saw your cat last time, and I finally understood what my father said. Why do we keep asking our brothers to associate with Mr. Jin more often?"

"Master Zhou, you should call me Jin Yan. It sounds a bit weird." Jin Yan said shyly, "Mr. Zhou took good care of me during his lifetime. In the future, if Master Zhou needs to be dispatched for anything, even Just order it."

Zhou Xingjie spoke like this suddenly, and changed his previous attitude. Jin Yan guessed that he must have known something from Mr. Zhou's relics.He didn't explain anything, Mr. Zhou took care of himself so much before, if the Zhou family brothers needed his help in any way in the future, he would be willing to define it.

"Okay, Jin Yan, take a look at this." Zhou Xingjie stopped being polite to him, and handed him an exquisite brocade box, "This is left by the previous owner of the mansion, and it has been treasured by my father."

Jin Yan took the brocade box, opened it, and saw that gorgeous mask inlaid with countless diamonds.Now that they are close, Jin Yan can clearly feel a wave of monster power and bloody smell coming towards him.He glanced at Zhou Xingjie, and said bluntly: "This mask has demonic power. If it is used too much, it will cause serious harm to the human body."

Zhou Xingjie nodded, unable to hide the paleness on his face.Not long after putting on the mask, he felt that it was unusual.The mask would keep tempting him, and once it was on his face, it was very difficult to remove, and his body was getting worse and worse.

"Jin Yan, I want to hand over this mask to you, is that okay?" Zhou Xingjie sighed and said sincerely, "Xingyu and I are ordinary people. To be honest, I feel very uncomfortable about having these things in our house." Uneasy, I want to move with Xingyu and live in the city center."

"Move away?" Jin Yan thought for a while and said, "I heard from Mr. Zhou that this house has a long history and has been blessed by an ancient formation, and ordinary evil things can't get in. Let the wife and the two young masters live here."

"Having said that..." Zhou Xingjie looked in the direction of the backyard with a tired expression.He believed what Jin Yan said, the inside of this house should be safe, otherwise the mud monster would not deliberately use Zhou Xingyu's hand to find someone, but too many things happened at home recently, which almost pushed his spirit to the limit.

"However, it's good to change the environment, and you can take Master Xingyu to relax." Jin Yan understood his feelings and said, "Since Master Zhou left this mask to me, I will take it with you today. Walk."

Zhou Xingjie nodded, and the two of them chatted for a while. Jin Yan made a side note, and learned that they had invited the best Taoist priest from Su Lun to eliminate the demon. There would no longer be strange sounds coming from the ancient well, and neither was Zhou Xingjie's body. Big problem, finally let go of my heart.After a while, Zhou Xingyu came downstairs with the black cat in his arms. Jin Yan greeted him, and the young man responded listlessly, stroking the black cat's fur numbly.

Seeing this young man's body again, Jin Yan felt a little complicated, but what surprised him even more was that Zhou Xingyu really seemed to like cats.Zhou Xingjie looked at his younger brother holding the black cat, and said with a smile, "Let's raise one too."

Zhou Xingyu lowered his head, noncommittal.Although he still doesn't like to talk, his current mood seems to be very stable, much better than before.

Zhou Xingjie originally wanted to stay with Jin Yan for lunch, but Li Gui just received a message, so he declined the invitation.When leaving Zhou's house, the black cat lay on his shoulder and said very depressed: "Next time, don't let me coax some brats. I'm exhausted. I'm not a cat who makes a living by being cute..."

Jin Yan: "???"

The black cat noticed his expression and was furious: "What do you think of my settings?!"

Jin Yan was happy holding the black cat.After leaving Zhou's house, he saw Li Gui waiting not far away.The two of them drove back to the city with a cat. Jin Yan thought that Li Gui could also see the unreal existence, so he opened the brocade box, took out the mask to show Li Gui, and asked humbly: "Master Zhou, give this mask to me. I'll take care of it, do you have any suggestions?"

"The monster power is very strong." Li Gui glanced at the mask while driving, "The ominous grimace appeared on Zhou Xingjie's body, is it because of this thing?"

"Yes." Jin Yan replied, "As long as he doesn't touch this thing anymore, that grimace should slowly disappear."

"It's not too late." Li Gui said, "If you wear it for a longer time, you won't be able to take off this mask."

Jin Yan was also a little scared when he thought about it. When Zhou Xingjie pretended to be Mrs. Lan, his body should have been extremely painful, because the mask had been crazily sucking his soul.If he was allowed to wear it for a longer period of time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"As far as I know, this kind of thing is different from ordinary monsters. It needs external conditions to make trouble." Li Gui said, "This mask can change the appearance of a person, it must first find a person who has this wish , attached to the other person. Without such a person, this mask cannot activate the illusion. If you want to dispose of it, it is best to put it in a place that is not easy to be touched by others, so as to ensure that it cannot seduce others. "

"Li Gui, you know a lot." Jin Yan said sincerely.

Hearing this, Li Guiyi raised his eyebrows, as if he was in a good mood.

On the way back to the city, Jin Yan dug a hole in a barren hill and buried the brocade box containing the mask in it.As he sprinkled the dirt, he seemed to hear the mask pleading.Accompanied by a vague and distant voice, Jin Yan saw a woman in a cheongsam locked in a room, desperately beating on the heavy carved wooden door, bleeding from both fresh palms, but no one responded to her.

After a while, Jin Yan saw this woman appearing under a big tree, hugging a young man tightly.She held a dagger in her hand, and when the man showed love to her, she mercilessly stabbed into the other's body.

The man didn't understand why his beloved lover would attack him. The woman looked into those eyes full of doubt and unwillingness, raised her foot, and kicked him into the nearby well.

As soon as the picture turned, Jin Yan saw the woman returning home and opening a locked carved wooden door. On the other side of the door, there was a woman who looked exactly like her in a cheongsam. They were all stained with blood.The woman outside the door smiled coldly, took off a mask from her face and threw it on the ground, turning into a dignified and elegant middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman said a few words, and watched the woman inside the door fall to the ground like a puppet who had lost her soul.After the middle-aged woman left, the desperate woman smashed a teacup and cut her wrist with the shards. The blood flowed all over the floor, soaking the gorgeous and alluring mask.

Vaguely, Jin Yan heard a voice in his ear saying: "Look, I have fulfilled everyone's wish, have you seen it? There are still so many people who need me..."

Jin Yan rubbed the center of his brows, tried hard to block out the noisy voices, and stepped on the covered soil.Li Gui and the black cat were by his side, and after all this was done, Jin Yan patted the dust off his body, heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Okay, let's go back!"

After speaking, he found that his hands were covered with mud, and hurriedly went to find water nearby.

"I'm dying from the sun, let's go, let's go." The black cat, which was sleeping on the tree, jumped down, flicked its tail, and chased after it.

Li Gui was leaning on the tree trunk, and was about to turn around, when he suddenly saw the dust on the ground break open, and an object flew out of the soil, and rushed towards his face with the smell of mud and the sound of howling wind.

He frowned slightly, and stretched out an index finger with a displeased expression, just in time to stop the thing in mid-air.

The tiny diamonds shone brightly under the sun's rays, and the mask exuding infinite charm was stopped by a small index finger. In the next second, a strange thing happened, the mask that had charmed countless people was touching The moment it touched Li Gui's finger, it shattered.

In the sunlight, every inch was reduced to ashes.

The irresistible temptation and powerful monster power are as fragile as sand paintings in front of Li Gui's fingers.When the wind blows, even the ashes dissipate in the air.What happened to this mask will never be known.

"Meow." A slight meow brought Li Gui back to his senses, and he turned his head to see that the black cat with a broken leg hadn't gone far, and was staring at him with piercing eyes.It saw everything that happened just now.At this moment, the black cat subconsciously took a posture to protect itself, with sharp and nervous eyes.

Li Gui glanced at it, as if he didn't care about it, his eyes passed directly through the black cat, and looked at a figure in the distance.

Jin Yan seemed to have sensed something, stopped and turned around, and found that one person and one cat hadn't followed, so he waved his hand up the mountain with a smile as bright as the morning sun.
