The original misunderstood me! ! !

When the white light in front of him dissipated, Wen Yue found himself in a place he had never set foot before.

The surrounding area is full of bloody winds, and it is dark. The vast rotting soil is gray and black, reaching up to the sky and below the earth, like a huge and silent tomb, covering everything in the dark.

There is only one inn standing abruptly not far away, like the only oil lamp appearing in the barren mountains and ridges, and the borderless desert shows a corner of a mirage, revealing indescribable weirdness and danger. He hesitated, not daring to approach rashly.

He thought about why he was here.

After saying goodbye to Xie Zishu, Wen Yue traveled all the way north and spent a day entering the edge of the Demon Realm.

The demon world is vast and boundless, with a large area of ​​desolate land, also known as the barren sky.

Wen Yue ran around for a long time, and couldn't even find a place to drink water, let alone rest.So when he found a simple tea shed on the edge of the barren sky, he ordered a bowl of tea without hesitation, intending to take a break.

In the end, Wen Yue encountered a surprise attack again with just a bowl of tea, and almost confessed where he was. It can be seen that this world is really in crisis every step of the way. Before he was in Bizhu Peak, he received too much protection from Yu Zheyuan.

Wen Yue pulled out the bone sword and lowered his head to observe—this sword is ivory white in color, as warm and moist as jade to the touch, but its texture is not as transparent as jade.

...I don't know what bones it was made of.

When he was attacked just now, it was the white light erupting from this sword that helped him block four highly poisonous silver needles, and white mist rose from the sword, teleporting him here.

Wen Yue couldn't figure out whether the bone sword had a spirit or some other reason.

If it is related to Yu Zheyuan...

His heart skipped a beat and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Not far away, the inn was still standing alone on the rotten soil, the only light in the entire barren sky.

Suddenly a voice came from behind: "Brother, why don't you go over?"

Wen Yue turned around and saw a little girl of six or seven years old.

She's only as tall as an adult's thigh, wearing a peach-pink skirt, with a pair of horns on top of her head, tied into a bun with bright ribbons.

She looks so cute, with big sparkling eyes, small nose and lips, she looks like a beauty at first glance - if it wasn't for her transparent body and pale face, Wen Yue would want to touch her Touch her head.

— This is a small? small? ghost.

Since Wen Yue was struck by lightning and pierced through the book, he has learned a lot. After coming to the devil world, he encountered all kinds of strange creatures. He is no longer afraid of ghosts.

Compared with those monsters with rough appearance and no human figure, even if it is a ghost, this little girl is also delicate and cute, which makes people feel close to her.

Fortunately, Wen Yue has always been cautious, but he just sighed in his heart, and still kept a distance from the "little" girl.

He said, "Why should I go there?"

"Brother has never been here?" The little girl pointed to the inn not far away, and said crisply, "In the center of the barren sky, there is only this inn to rest. If you want to leave, you can only leave through the inn."

When she was talking, something quickly drilled through the ground in the rotten soil a few steps away, setting off a wave of soil.

The earth wave rushed towards the direction of the inn, and when it was about to reach the gate of the inn, it stopped suddenly.

A huge earthworm emerged from the soil and turned into a gray figure. Shi Shi ran into the inn.

"Isn't brother going?" the little girl asked again.

Wen Yue: "...not for now."

"Then I'll go first." The little girl said to him.

After finishing speaking, she walked towards the inn bouncing around, her peach pink skirt swaying, shaking with the two little girls on top of her head.

Wen Yue stood at the same spot, held a bone sword, and observed Xiao? silently for half an hour, and finally came to the conclusion that there really seemed to be only this inn here. The guests? What the girl said is probably true, only by entering the inn can one leave here.

It's all here, he has to be familiar with the devil world, and it's impossible to avoid it all the time.

Wen Yue thought for a while, followed the occasional unidentified creatures from the demon world from a distance, and Yu Jian came to the inn.

I saw? This inn is completely dark, and it seems to be built of sunken wood. There are eight red lanterns hanging on the four corners of the eaves, reflecting the surrounding area in a light red.

The gate is black and shiny, and the plaque hanging directly above it is also black, with four golden characters on it - Huangquan Inn.

Wen Yue pressed the bamboo hat on top of his head, half covered his face, and walked into the Huangquan Inn.

"Hey, new guest officer?" A snake demon was leaning behind the door. When it saw Wenyue, it immediately swam up with its tail. Its body and head twisted down as if there were no bones, and its eyes looked from bottom to top. , saw Wen Yue's whole face, "This little brother looks so handsome!"

Her? This one, with a charming and clear voice, resounded throughout the lobby.

Under the curtain, on the beams, in all kinds of messy places, several eyes shot at Wenyue, and said with a "tch", "Where did you come from again? The white face, let us? The proprietress take a fancy to it?"

"Is he as handsome as me?"

"That must be much prettier than you!"

"Compared to? Boss lady, your old lover? People? How about it?"

The snake demon twisted its slender waist, and said angrily, "Don't mention that dead ghost Wen Yue! He can't compare to this little brother!"

Wen Yue:?

At first, Wen Yue thought he had heard it wrong—after all, the world is so big, it is not uncommon for his name to collide with his name.

But soon, he discovered that the "Wen Yue" that the proprietress spoke of was really the Demon Lord Wen Yue.

The ghost behind the curtain yelled: "Is that the Demon Lord from before? Isn't it the current Demon Lord?"

"It is said that after he got together with Yu Zheyuan, in order to please the beauty, he changed his skin. Now this face is a hundred times better than before!"

"Say it as if you've seen it before."

"I heard that the news from the Huangquan Inn spreads in all directions. Even if Wen Yue never returns to the Demon Realm after marrying, the news will always come out—I heard that the face he put on is quite suitable for Yu Zheyuan."

"real or fake?"

"It must be true. If he doesn't change his face, will Yu Zheyuan be with him?" Guiying said, "You all know that, right? Wenyue has become a softie now Little boy with a bad face, and a disgraceful wife with strict control!"

"Hahahahaha!!!" There was a burst of ridicule from all directions in the lobby, and even the proprietress of the snake demon showed contempt.

"Thinking back when he soaked in the devil world, there was dewy love everywhere. Who would have thought, but now he is submissive and obedient by a man? The gate? Doesn't go out of the second door? Doesn't step forward, it's like being married back by Yu Zheyuan The little one at home? Daughter-in-law."

"Yeah, yeah, if it wasn't for that Yu Zheyuan was a sick person, I really thought Wenyue was the next one? That." A strange smile came from the top of the beam, "Don't leave the huge demon world behind, I don't think he was caught The beauty fascinates the mind, but the mind is insane, right?"

Wen Yue: "..."

Sure enough, as long as the Mozun and Yu Zheyuan are mentioned, everyone knows the deeds of the Mozun's doting on his wife, no matter in the fairy world, the demon world or the human world-of course, in different places, the Mozun's reputation is very polarized .

Wen Yue hadn't figured out where he was going, so he coughed lightly and interrupted everyone's conversation: "Miss Boss, please give me a room."

"Do you want a coffin made of the same material as our inn, or a room dressed as an adult guest room?"

Wen Yue: "..."

Wen Yue: "The latter, thank you."

"How long?"

"Stay for a day first."

"Okay," the proprietress seemed to like Wen Yue's face very much, she stared at him coquettishly and said, "It's a tael of silver."

Wen Yue reached out to take out his purse, and found that the purse seemed much lighter.

"...?"

Wen Yue quickly untied the money bag, opened it and looked inside - the whole money bag was empty, not a single coin.

Wen Yue was dumbfounded.

... Where is his money?

Did it fall while avoiding the poisonous needle?Or lost it when the teleportation array was triggered?

Wen Yue felt a little embarrassed, silently put the money bag back, and walked out of the inn.

The demons and ghosts entrenched in the lobby laughed when they saw him, and they all mocked: "What's the use of being good-looking? He turned out to be a poor ghost!"

The proprietress ignored them, swam over enthusiastically, and stretched out her slender, white hand, trying to grab Wen Yue.

"My little brother, as long as you sleep with me for one night, I will waive the rent for you, how about it?"

Wen Yue: "...nothing, nothing."

The way he lowered his head and refused, his eyes twinkling in embarrassment, was really itchy.

The landlady's eyes dimmed, she grabbed Wen Yue's arm, and was about to stick it to her chest.

It was too late and then soon, a fierce wind came from the side? Something shiny with silver hit the gap between the proprietress and Wen Yue, and she leaned back and grabbed it in the palm of her hand.

"silver."

The snake demon squinted his slender eyes, and said in his heart that although the young man in front of him is coveted, to her, the scent of silver is the most attractive.

Together with Wen Yue, she looked at the people who came - and saw a young man dressed in a moon white gown and looking like a scholar appeared on the second floor and walked down the stairs made of coffins step by step.

"Meet you again," Xie Zishu smiled at Wen Yue, "What a coincidence."

He walked down the steps under Wen Yue's dazed gaze, came to Wen Yue, nodded to the proprietress, "I'll pay his rent."

The snake demon gazed probingly, turned around the two of them, and winked at Wen Yue ambiguously: "Okay, you can come to me anytime if you have no money."

Wen Yue: "..."

Wen Yue looked at Xie Zishu, very surprised that he, a frail scholar, would appear here, and felt a little embarrassed to help him.

"you……"

Xie Zishu interrupted Wen Yue: "I know what you want to say."

"The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring," he lowered his voice, "not to mention you saved my life."

"It seems? It's the first time for brother Dugu to come here."

"If you're not used to it, you might as well live in the room next to me."
