The Demon and the Puppeteer

Chapter 23 Chapter 23

The base of the ghosts is underground, and that piece of land belongs to the Xue family. There are buildings on the top, and the kingdom of the Xue family is built on the bottom.

"One day, I will move my kingdom to the ground." Although Xue Yanshi's tone was light, he couldn't hide the lofty ambition inside.

Han Jizhi and Yan Ziyu followed behind Xue Yanshi, looking around.

At first glance, this place looks like a disorderly maze, but it is actually laid out according to the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams. Karmic fires are placed on every turning wall, emitting a faint light in the dark, and guards of the demons stand under the light.

Yan Ziyu asked: "The Mozun has a lot of research on Taoism?"

Xue Yanshi patted his mustache: "It's just for interest, I found someone to build it... But you can see the way. You know more about Taoism than I do."

Yan Ziyu smiled: "It's nothing, after all, I wanted to cultivate immortality at the beginning, but I accidentally became a demon."

Xue Yanshi murmured: "There is nothing wrong with becoming a demon, at least you are still alive now, and the gods have all fallen."

Yan Ziyu asked curiously: "I was sealed for 1000 years, I don't know what happened during this period, why did the gods fall?"

Xue Yanshi asked back: "Do you know how gods are born?"

Yan Ziyu: "Either be born directly in the heaven and earth, or ascend to immortality through practice."

"This is the most superficial statement." Xue Yanshi said solemnly, "Immortals are born in people's hearts. When the world first opened, humans first appeared in the world, and people's awe of heaven and earth gave them the idea of ​​immortals. The aura is the most abundant, and the human mind becomes a spirit body, a god, and is in charge of the karmic cycle of the world. At the same time, the gods need to be worshiped, because people's belief in the gods is the nourishment for their survival. Now people who believe that there are gods in the world There are only a few left, and the gods will perish."

"The devil's idea is unique." Yan Ziyu disagreed, "Then, what about those who become immortals through cultivation? They were not created through human thoughts, and naturally they will not perish through human thoughts."

"Indeed. People exaggerate too much about immortals, so so many people want to cultivate immortals. In fact, cultivating immortals has only one advantage compared with cultivating demons and demons-humans will enshrine them, and by enshrining them, they can improve their cultivation. Why, instead of working so hard like us. But now that the offerings are gone, what’s the point of them being gods? There are so many rules and regulations, it’s better to integrate into human beings to live a more enjoyable life.”

"According to what the Demon Lord said, there are no gods in charge of the karmic reincarnation in the world now?"

"Without gods, isn't there still the law of heaven and earth?"

"Laws of heaven and earth? Live and die?"

"Exactly."

Feeling colder as he walked in, Han Jizhi tightened his neckline.

Xue Yanshi glanced at Han Jizhi sharply: "Is it cold? It will be fine after walking this distance."

Han Jizhi: "Is it because of karmic fire?"

Xue Yanshi shook his head: "It's the Millennium Xuan*bing." But he didn't say much.

Han Jizhi and Yan Ziyu were taken to a poorly decorated room with only tables, chairs, books and a big bed.

Yan Ziyu curled his lips in dissatisfaction: "It's so old now, why don't you even have a computer?"

"Haven't you been sealed for 1000 years? You're getting used to it." Xue Yanshi sneered, "We demons are at the time when we are trying our best. We don't have any money to buy computers. Besides, you are not here for your enjoyment, remember. Keep your identities."

"Han Jizhi, finish studying those books within two days." Xue Yanshi pointed to the books piled up on the table, "I will find someone to check and accept them in two days."

Han Jizhi picked up those books and looked at them, only to see that the titles on the covers were "Secret History of the Lady of Spring", "Eighteen Styles of a Jade Girl", "Dual Cultivation of Dafa" and the like: "Teacher, are you sure you picked up the right book?"

"There is nothing wrong." Xue Yanshi said solemnly, "Since you want to serve my daughter, how can you do it without some skills."

Yan Ziyu leaned over curiously, randomly picked out a yellowed book and flipped through it, and couldn't help being amazed: "You have such ancient books..." After finishing speaking, he realized that this was not the time to sigh, and looked at it shyly. After glancing at Han Jizhi, Yan Ziyu threw the book at Xue Yanshi, "Old Man Se, Jizhi's technique is very good! You don't need these books!"

Han Jizhi: "..."

"Really, you are older than me. If I were an old man, what are you?" Xue Yanshi held the book steadily, picked out the flaws in Yan Ziyu's words, and looked at Han Jizhi seriously, "In short, the two Someone will come to check and accept it a few days later, and study it carefully.”

Yan Ziyu: "How to check and accept?"

Xue Yanshi: "Naturally, true knowledge comes from practice."

So, before the officials "practice" with themselves, they have to touch two women?This is not acceptable.

After Xue Yanshi left, Yan Ziyu hugged Han Jizhi's waist from behind, and said sullenly: "Officer, do we really want to stay here obediently and study these little yellow books?"

Han Jizhi turned sideways, held the book in one hand, stroked Yan Ziyu's hair with the other, pointed to the painting in the book and said, "Look, isn't this blank space very charming?"

Yan Ziyu: "..."

Sir, your focus is wrong, okay...

------------------------------------------------

The annual costume design competition of Leon College came to a perfect conclusion. In the end, Qian Wen was the first, Alisa was the second, and Xue Mengmeng was the third. The school ended at 11:30. Everyone was discussing the competition and looking forward to spending a good time. In the afternoon when you can arrange your time freely, the school is extremely lively during this time after school.

Xue Mengmeng did not go out with her friends to celebrate her ranking, but followed Qian Wen secretly.Qian Wen didn't go home. She was a good student and planned to stay in school for an afternoon.

Xue Mengmeng waited, and when Qian Wen went to the toilet, she locked the door. There were only the two of them in the toilet. At that time, there were not many students in the whole school, and it was very quiet.

Xue Mengmeng is wearing a black leather jacket and leather pants with a navel, a row of black earrings on her ears, her eyes are not friendly under the rich eye shadow, her lips are too big with black lipstick, and she is constantly chewing gum, standing at the pit door where Qian Wen enters back.

The sound of flushing water sounded, Qian Wen came out with her head down, as if she was thinking about something, Xue Mengmeng kicked on the door, Qian Wen was startled, and looked up at Xue Mengmeng.

Xue Mengmeng folded her arms and looked at Qian Wen. Qian Wen was wearing a long white dress, paired with a beige sweater and a button-down jacket, with a delicate face and slightly disturbed eyes, she looked extremely weak.

"Hey, did you copy Wang Yalan's idea?" Xue Mengmeng spoke first, her voice deliberately loud, appearing fierce.

"Are you joking?" Qian Wen pursed her lips and said calmly, "Aunt Wang has been dead for three years, where do I copy from?"

"Hmph, sophistry. I have studied your clothing design style, and it is completely different from your award-winning style this time. On the contrary, it is very similar to Wang Yalan's style. And I don't believe that your ability has reached this point." Xue Mengmeng sneered Said, "You have been in love with Wang Yalan's son for so long, isn't it easy to get Wang Yalan's unpublished manuscript from his house?"

Qian Wen's complexion changed slightly, and her delicate face was slightly distorted: "There is nothing to say, you are just jealous that I won the first place."

"Hmph, jealous of you? What do you have that I can be jealous of? I just don't want to see someone like you. Don't let me see you in the future. Be careful. I see you hitting me once." Xue Mengmeng was so angry when she saw Qianwen Trembling but still afraid to speak, feeling that the anger in his heart had calmed down a bit, Xue Mengmeng brushed a strand of purple hair on his forehead, and Xue Mengmeng walked out of the toilet proudly with his chin raised.

Qian Wen bit her lip, getting more and more angry as she thought about it, she rushed out of the toilet to call Lu Sinian, and said in tears as soon as she got through, "It's all your fault for letting me use Wang Yalan's manuscript, now that someone has discovered it, How can I have the face to stay in school if I say it?"

On the other side of the phone, Lu Sinian sneered: "Although I suggested it at the time, you were the one who accepted it in the end, and I didn't force you. Isn't it just what you want now that you are No.1? So what if someone finds out, There is no proof, does anyone believe it?"

Qian Wen thought for a while to calm down, and was about to apologize to Lu Sinian for her gaffe, but the other side of the phone had already hung up.

------------------------------------------------

Xue Mengmeng has two homes, one on the ground and one under the ground. The above-ground home is a high-end apartment with all the facilities, comfortable and convenient. The underground home is called "Ghost Creature", and the name is quite bluffing. It seems to be very powerful, but in fact the houses inside are very simple, and the toilets and bathrooms are all shared, which is very troublesome, if it is not because karmic fire is only found in ghosts, and she cannot generate karmic fire out of thin air like her father, and she must get it To control the karmic fire, she didn't want to stay in the ghosts at all.

First, I went back to the apartment. At three o’clock, Xue Mengmeng turned on the computer and logged in to a website. This website was only valid between three and four o’clock in the afternoon, and one had to pay one yuan to log in. It was dedicated to providing information. It is said that this website The founder is an organization called "RAT".

When you open the website, there is an overwhelming amount of information. There are people looking for someone, and some asking questions. Xue Mengmeng posted a photo of a person in the question section, with light eyebrows and eyes, like a fairy. where to find him.

Soon someone replied: This information needs 1 yuan.

Xue Mengmeng was very surprised. Usually it is very cheap to find someone with a photo, at most a hundred. It seems that the person you want is hard to find?Is there any amazing secret?

Although my father has always warned me to be diligent and thrifty, but considering that it is rare for me to fall in love with someone at first sight, how can I give up so easily?Gritting her teeth, Xue Mengmeng called 1 yuan, and a message came after 1 minute.

Name: Yan Ziyu

Sex: Male

age:? ?

Species: Demon

Where it is now: ghost

"Damn!" Xue Mengmeng stared at the computer screen and cursed, "Such a little information cost me 1 yuan to play with me. If I had known, I would have gone back to ghosts first. Maybe I could meet... Yan Ziyu."

Xue Mengmeng couldn't help but feel a little shy after saying the word "Yan Ziyu".

During the final of the fashion design competition, she was sitting in the first row of the auditorium, mainly to see the competitors' works, so her focus was on the models' clothes, but when Yan Ziyu appeared on the stage, she was unconsciously drawn Attracted by his demeanor and appearance, when his cold and haughty eyes swept over everyone, she couldn't help but tremble all over, her whole body was numb...
