The rapid development of human society has caused the scarcity of spiritual energy in the world, and it has also made it more difficult for creatures that rely on spiritual energy to survive and cultivate.
Before meeting Qin Xi, Xuan Ye thought that the pure, rich, clean and clear spiritual power of his childhood would never be seen again in his almost endless life.
When the teenager stretched out his palm and released the spiritual energy in his body, Xuan Ye suddenly had a bold guess.
It has nothing to do with the youth's origins, conspiracy calculations, just pure speculation, or even fantasies... Does the appearance of this young man mean that there is still a chance for them in this end of the law era
too difficult. Demons, spirits, ghosts, charms, good or evil aside for the time being, these existences that are almost resisted by heaven, every day of life, every step is too difficult. Even if they are powerful, and even if they have a long lifespan, who wants to live carefully all the time and go to great lengths to exchange for a chance to survive
This thought flashed by, and he quickly pressed it to the bottom of his heart, not daring to take it out easily. But it also stayed there, lingering and indelible.
The conversation between the two did not continue. Xuan Ye found out some details of what Li Han had said to him from his confused mind, and told Qin Xi to read the instruction manual first. made a phone call.
The phone rang for a long time, until after it was determined that no one answered, Xuan Ye calmly hung up and dialed again. After repeated four or five times, he was finally connected, and there was a confused voice over the phone.
"Bai Xiao." Xuan Ye said in a deep voice, "Who is Qin Xi?"
"...a human..." The person on the other side of the phone was silent for a while, then said vaguely, and then he didn't say anything for a long time.
Xuan Ye didn't speak to urge and waited for his next words. Just when he thought he was about to learn a big secret, there was a clear 'huh...' sound from the phone, indicating how sweetly the other party slept.
At that moment, all the excitement, uneasiness, and anxiety vanished, leaving only the sullen qi circling in his chest, and a sentence of MMP choked in his throat that he couldn't say!
Xuan Ye hung up the phone angrily, dialed it back again, hung up after about 20 seconds of ringing, and dialed again. This time, after dialing seven or eight times, it was estimated that Bai Xiao could not sleep because of the noise. Xuan Ye answered the phone faintly and asked, "Are you awake?"
As the auspicious beast Bai Ze who knows all things in the world and assists the emperor in governing the world, Bai Xiao's abilities have little room for exertion in this new society. To this end, I have learned new skills to earn a living over the years.
It's just that its own power is not stronger than other divine beasts, and the suppression of heaven is more reflected in other places, such as... drowsiness. Before entering human society, Bai Ze often fell asleep for thousands of years, and opened his eyes for hundreds of years. Now that I have entered human society, I try my best not to let myself sleep for too long, but I spend most of the day in sleep. If you don't get enough sleep, you will not only be mentally and physically weak, but also your mood will be very bad.
Not to mention being woken up so alive!
However, his nature made him unable to get angry at all. Facing the culprit who woke him up, Bai Xiao answered the other party with a gentle tone: "Wake up." How bad.
Xuan Ye ignored him. After confirming that he was really awake, he asked again: "Who is Qin Xi? That human who just woke up."
"Qin Xi? Who is that?" When Xuan Ye thought he made the wrong call and the guy opposite was not the auspicious beast Bai Ze, Bai Xiao finally came back to his senses: "Oh, the human who just woke up. He..."
Xuan Ye held his breath and waited for his words.
"He... I don't know either." Bai Xiao's tone was soft, as if he was acting like a spoiled child.
"..." Xuan Ye was so angry that he wanted to hit him!
Seemingly aware of the other party's anger, Bai Xiao continued slowly: "God warned me to wake him up, I only know that he will be a very important person. I don't know where he came from, why he fell asleep, and what it is related to. "
Xuan Ye silently held the phone in front of his eyes and confirmed that the contact person was Bai Xiao, then put it to his ear again, and asked solemnly, "Don't know all of it?"
"I don't know." Bai Xiao replied calmly.
After getting a positive answer, Xuan Ye hung up the phone and sat in the car for a long time without moving.
Even Bai Ze, who could predict the end of the law, the suppression of heaven, and even the demise of immortals and gods, could not see through the origin of a human being.
This can only show that... this human being... really has extraordinary origins.
The phone rang suddenly, Xuan Ye glanced at it, and connected.
Bai Xiao's voice became vague and sleepy again, but he still clearly expressed his meaning: "He is very important, we must protect him well and let him adapt to the life of human society. Uh... no need to protect... he is better than you... all... Strong... huh... "
Hearing that Bai Xiao quickly fell asleep again, Xuan Ye hung up the phone with a dark face, and quickly blocked the person temporarily. At least in the short term, he doesn't want to have any more contact with this guy!
But... better than them all? a human
When Xuan Ye came back, Qin Xi was holding a manual of "The Handbook of Human Social Life in the New Era—Special Edition of the Three Realms Affairs Office" and was struggling to study it.
Seeing the other party come in, Qin Xi immediately waved to him happily and patted the page in his hand lightly.
"What's the matter?" The young man seemed to have a kind of magic power, which could always make Xuan Ye quickly put down the messy thoughts in his mind and become relaxed and happy. Just like now, the thoughts that were still full of thoughts just now were completely forgotten after sitting next to the teenager, and they quickly matched the emotions of the other party.
"Here and here!" Qin Xi pointed to the unfolded page, and asked a question unrelated to the content: "You seemed to say that you are not human? Then what are you? Li Han said that the people who lead the Three Realms Affairs Office are all Divine Beast, are you too?"
Xuan Ye was startled for a moment, then remembered that he had never told Qin Xi about his identity, so he smiled and rubbed his hair and said, "I'm Suzaku."
"Suzaku..." Qin Xi looked at the page for a long time before barely recognizing a few words: "Sacred Beast Suzaku... South... Lihuo... Is that this?"
"Yes." Xuan Ye said with a smile: "The five elements belong to fire and guard the south. There are many things recorded in the literature, but nothing is too important, so you don't need to look closely."
"Well..." Qin Xi held his chin and thought for a while, then turned the pages to the previous pages, pointing to one of the few places where he could read the next full page, puzzled: "But... I have nothing to do with you here. Not like!"
It is said in the book that the four holy beasts each guard one side, and together with the unicorn, they have the attributes of the five spirits.
Dongfang Qinglong is calm, wise and strategizing, and it is a wood attribute.
The northern basalt is gentle and honest and guards the underworld, which is the water attribute.
Western white tigers are smart, resourceful and far-reaching, and they are metallic.
The Southern Suzaku is beautiful, enchanting, domineering, and aggressive, and has the attribute of fire.
The other three Qin Xi didn't know, but the Xuan Ye he knew was completely different from the above.
Oh, no, beauty can still be taken advantage of.
Qin Xi looked at Xuan Ye with his chin on his side, looked up and down several times, and then turned his eyes back to the book.
It's still not right, and it's not quite right to be beautiful. Someone like him should be called handsome.
"Qin Xi?" Xuan Ye looked strangely at Qin Xi, who suddenly lowered his head to read a book in the middle of speaking, and stared at him for a while, then continued to read Qin Xi, confused.
Is this using him as a dictionary? Do you have to look at his face to continue reading a book
"What's the difference?" Xuan Ye asked after the other party started talking.
Qin Xi puffed up half of his face and flattened like playing, and said slowly: "This is not true at all. You don't seem to be grumpy and domineering at all, you are obviously very gentle."
Xuan Ye, who was suddenly praised, touched the bridge of his nose, feeling slightly better.
"Suzaku belongs to fire, and it's normal to have a violent temperament. This is very similar to my ancestors. As for me... In the early years, when I was young, I was also in line, but after staying among humans for a long time, it will always be affected. "He couldn't say that he couldn't get angry in front of Qin Xi. At other times, even in front of those few beasts, they would scold each other without saying a word. Xuan Ye smiled and said, "As for the rest... it's all random writing, you don't have to take it to heart."
Qin Xi was dissatisfied: "But..." After thinking about it, he didn't know how to express it, so he bit his lower lip and became silent again.
Xuan Ye laughed: "These are just for the little demons who have just come out of the mountain. They were just entering human society, and they were afraid of uncontrollably causing trouble, so they deliberately wrote something similar to the legend, and even slightly exaggerated, so that they had a heart of fear. . Ordinary little monsters go out of the mountain to see the top of the affairs department, as long as they can scare them. As for you... Of course, you don't have to believe all of them."
After all... Except for what he thought, the other deities were more like made up.
"Hmm..." Qin Xi continued to hold his cheeks, unable to tangle.
Although there were some twists and turns at the beginning, the two of them got along harmoniously, one learned and the other taught, and they happily completed the task of reading the instruction manual in the middle of the night. Qin Xi also successfully learned a lot of commonly used simplified characters.
Xuan Ye looked at his watch, got up and pulled Qin Xi up, who was still immersed in the book, and took him to a guest room to move things in together.
"I'll take you to buy a suitcase tomorrow. After a few days, I'm done, and you'll come back to Kyoto with me." Xuan Ye said as he put things away like taking care of a child, and then laid out the toiletries one by one to prepare OK, said.
Qin Xi leaned over and was instructed by him to wash his face and brush his teeth. He didn't forget to continue asking one hundred thousand whys: "Why go to Kyoto?"
"The headquarters of the office is in Kyoto, and I can't leave there for too long. If you're talking... it's better to follow me. Except for Qi Shuang, there are not many reliable ones in the sub-office, lest you be damaged by them." Xuan Ye took the towel out. After handing it to him, he found a set of pajamas from a pile of bags. Seeing the appearance of the pajamas, he frowned first, then raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Did you dance?"
Qin Xi tilted his head to look over and shook his head: "No! Where did this come from?"
"It seems that Li Han made his own decisions." Xuan Ye beckoned to him: "Come and try, it should be suitable for you."
