Yun Rong suddenly became happy, she smiled brightly and said: "Thank you, Second Brother, I will definitely not be late again in the future."
Lu Henian hummed, but he was thinking in his heart. From tomorrow onwards, he should go pick up the little girl by himself. Now not only must he prevent Ms. Jiang Shuhua from introducing various young men of the right age to Yunrong, but also guard against all kinds of hooligans. His eyes were heavy. , pursed the corners of his lips in displeasure, and waited for him one by one!
···
The special office of Haishi is located in a small three-story building in the old city, surrounded by old residential areas, with narrow streets and dense population. At the beginning, this place meant to be a big hermit in the city.
This three-storey building is quite old. It was the mansion of a warlord in the Republic of China. I heard that this warlord was greedy for money and lustful. There were eighteen young wives in his family, but the eldest wife was a powerful one. The warlord had just died on the battlefield. The eldest wife poisoned all the eighteen goblins to death, rolled up all the gold and silver by herself, and ran away with others.
Since then, there have been many legends about this small building. The common people living nearby say that the small building is haunted. Every night when the moon is full, there will be women’s mournful cries. Even in broad daylight, people will walk around and talk. The sound, so over time, few people approached.
Early in the morning, Wan Bo carefully walked into the gate of the Special Investigation Office with the mirror demon covered with a layer of black cloth. The gatekeeper was a thin old man, who greeted cheerfully: "Xiao Wan, I came here very early today. Ah." He glanced at the things he was holding in his hand again, and asked casually: "A little demon has opened his mind again? What is it this time? Puppy?"
"Uncle Hei, this is not a little demon, this is a mirror demon." Wan Bo hurriedly took two steps back to avoid Uncle Hei's hand. Move around randomly, for fear that the mirror demon will escape.
Once the monster goes sideways, its cultivation will increase greatly. I don't know if the old, weak, sick and disabled in the Special Investigation Bureau can beat them.
"The mirror has become a spirit? This is very strange, why are you so nervous?" Uncle Hei asked suspiciously.
"This is an evil cultivator!" Wan Bo replied seriously.
When Uncle Hei heard the word Xiexiu, he quickly backed up a few steps, and three or five slender beards appeared from the corners of his mouth in fright, like a big mouse. He touched his little heart and said, "Little Wan, don't scare me, you know we are timid as mice."
Uncle Hei is a big rat that has been mature for 300 years, and he is now in charge of the janitorial work of the Special Investigation Department.
"What did I lie to you for? What an evil cultivator." Wan Bo said as he walked inside.
"Hey, Xiao Wan, when did you become so powerful that you caught the evil cultivator by yourself?" Uncle Hei raised his thumb in admiration.
Just as Wan Bo wanted to say that it wasn't him, a young man with colorful hair came out of the office, with a deep-fried dough stick in his mouth, and said vaguely, "What evil cultivator? Wait until I take her with my sword!"
"Qiu Dongming, you can pull it off. Wipe the gums from the corners of your eyes before you accept the monsters. Going out will affect the image of our special office!" Just as the young man finished speaking, a man in his twenties, wearing a white wrap skirt The tall and slender girl came out from another office and said with a look of disgust.
"Lixiao, why do you speak so badly? Just because you look like a handsome guy, it also affects the image of the special mediation department. I raised the image of the special mediation department." Qiu Dongming was immediately unhappy.
"Oh, I'm so thick-skinned that I'm going to paste the wall." Li Xiao rolled her eyes and said, "I'm not a human being, I'm a whisker."
"Okay, stop arguing!" Wan Bo frowned, interrupting the quarrel between the two young people, "A dozen young people have disappeared, do you still have the mind to quarrel?"
As soon as he heard Wan Bo's words, the dissatisfaction on Qiu Dongming's face dissipated, and he sighed: "Is there any way to do this, there is no clue at all, the bone spirit you brought back last time is just a bone, and the soul is scattered Now, what else can I ask?"
Dawn also became serious, "Senior Brother Wan, I was just about to tell you that the Public Security Bureau sent me a surveillance video in the morning. Last night, a woman tried to commit suicide in the Suli River and was rescued. I think It has something to do with our case."
"That's what I want to talk about. This is the mirror demon who confused the girl into the Suli River last night. Let's interrogate and see if it can be used as a breakthrough."
Wan Bo directly locked the mirror demon in his hand into a transparent container made of special material, which was left by Mr. Zhang, and it was specially used to detain evil cultivators.
Qiu Dongming looked at the translucent object in the cage that didn't listen to the twist, opened his eyes wide and said, "Amazing Senior Brother Wan, now you can catch the evil cultivator alone!"
"This is an evil cultivator? This looks too ugly, why doesn't it even have a human figure?" Li Xiao looked at it with disgust, and then asked: "The mirror demon should have a body, where is her body mirror?"
Wan Bo replied: "I didn't catch it. Like the bone spirit the day before yesterday, it was caught by Senior Yun. I heard that the main body was broken at the beginning, so I didn't bring it back."
Li Xiao is a demon herself, and for the demon clan, her body is her second life. She rubbed her chin and said, "It's so pitiful!"
"I'm not pitiful, what fell was not my body at all, as long as you can't find my body, you can't do anything to me!" As soon as the words fell, an arrogant voice came from the cage.
The three of them were startled, and Qiu Dongming immediately said: "Even if we can't find your real body, we can break up your cultivation, so that even if you return to your real body, it will be just a mirror that can do nothing."
"You can't torture me, I'm not yet an adult." The mirror demon also noticed that the three people in front of her were not very good at cultivation, and they were far behind the big guy who caught her last night. Immediately, I was no longer afraid, and said triumphantly.
"Don't think I don't know. According to the latest law on the protection of underage demons, underage demons can be dealt with lightly. What's more, that woman has nothing to do with her. At most, I'm an attempted crime. You can't do anything to me!" There is something in the demon's stomach. She has studied the laws of the demon clan and knows that she is innocent.
"Hey, evil cultivators are so educated these days, and they are more familiar with laws and regulations than me?" Qiu Dongming's eyes widened when he heard that.
Wan Bo frowned, what the mirror demon said was right, the Special Investigation Department really can't do anything to her, "Although we can't do anything to you, but we can keep you locked up, tell me, why do you confuse Lin Xiaoman Walking into the Suli River, what is there in the Suli River?"
When asked about this matter, the mirror demon suddenly fell silent.
Li Xiao is a violent person. Seeing that the mirror demon was silent, she took out a dust whisk from her waist and tapped it in the palm of her hand: "The monsters in the whole sea city are managed by our special mediation office. Do you think the law can really protect you?" , if you don't tell me, believe it or not, I'll beat you?"
"How could you do such a thing to an underage demon?" The mirror demon shrank into a corner, with a bit of fear in her voice.
Li Xiao gritted her teeth, flung the whisk in her hand like a tiger, and hit the transparent cage with a hunting sound, sneering: "Why not? The law on the protection of underage demons is to protect law-abiding good demons, you evil Xiu still wants to enjoy the same treatment, let me tell you, it’s a dream, let’s say it early and suffer less."
The mirror demon didn't expect to use torture when he came up, and said in a trembling voice: "You treat me like this, Xianjun will not let you go!"
Wan Bo on the side quickly asked: "Who is the fairy?" He remembered that the Bone Demon had also mentioned the fairy to Senior Yun, could it be that they belonged to the same group
As soon as the fairy was mentioned, the mirror demon said with admiration in his tone: "Our great fairy is the only god in this world. He is omnipotent and will lead our monster race to flourish again and return to the heyday of ancient times!"
God? Where are the gods in this world? Everyone looked at the mirror demon in the cage with complicated eyes, Fu Xiao approached Wan Bo, and whispered: "Senior Brother Wan, this mirror demon won't be beaten stupid by Senior Yun, right?"
Qiu Dongming stuffed the last mouthful of fried dough sticks into his mouth, curled his lips and said, "I don't think so, do you think that Xianjun is engaged in rumors and sales? Last time we cooperated with the Public Security Bureau to destroy a rumor. The sales den, inside All the members who come out look like this, they have been brainwashed by pyramid schemes!"
For a moment, everyone felt that Qiu Dongming was right.
·
The Lu family, Lu Huanian and Jiang Shuhua's mother and daughter were sitting together for a meeting.
"I tested the year of the crane in the morning and said that I would introduce someone to Yunrong. Guess what? His face turned black." When Jiang Shuhua talked about this, she couldn't hide her smile.
Can she be unhappy? When Lu Henian joined the company, she introduced many beautiful girls to him. She hoped that he would find a suitable one and give birth to a grandson for her to hug. It's because of his fate, that is, he doesn't want to look for it himself. Now that it's all over, he's finally enlightened.
Jiang Shuhua let go of most of her worries.
"Let me just say it, Mom, trust me." Lu Huanian proudly raised his chin.
Jiang Shuhua nodded, just after being happy for a while, she said again: "Actually, I think we are too happy, I have already tried this way, although he has a bad face, but he didn't reveal half of it, I was afraid that he would like it in his heart." , but couldn’t take that step.”
"Mom, we all understand He Nian's temperament. Although he doesn't say anything about his fate, he must care about it in his heart. Just because he likes it, he is even more scrupulous. He is afraid of hurting Yunrong. He is afraid that he will keep it in his heart and not say it. Come out. Yunrong is just a little girl, if you don't say she doesn't understand, these two people will miss it." Lu Huanian also frowned.
"Then how do we do this?"
Lu Huanian thought for a while, then slapped his thigh and said, "If he can't take this step by himself, let's give him a push!"
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Jiang Yan's number.
Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Yan came to Lu's house. As soon as he entered the gate, Lu Huanian, who was coming down the stairs, was taken aback. She looked up and down at the nephew several times and said, "Jiang Yan, what's the matter with you? Are you sending it to the army?"
Jiang Yan's grandfather was a commander in the army, and their family had a tradition of sending boys to the army for training, that's why Lu Huanian said that.
"It's nothing, I'm just... I'm not satisfied with the previous look. I changed my image. How about Auntie? Isn't she more heroic?" Jiang Yan touched his head embarrassedly, pretending to be special about his image satisfy.
Satisfied ass!
Since he met that bone spirit last time, he hasn't been out for the past few days, and he sleeps trembling at night, and when he closes his eyes, it's full of love words he said to Luo Feifei that day.
After learning from the pain, Jiang Yan felt that it was all caused by being too handsome, so he went to shave his hair and cut it into a small crew cut. He also locked up all the dirty clothes at home. He only wore his clothes when he came out today. See t-shirt and trousers.
Does image matter
"Yingwu? I think you look like a parrot!" Lu Huanian glanced at Jiang Yan inexplicably, then touched his forehead and said, "Have you been stimulated by something recently? You broke up with your girlfriend? Confess to the girl got rejected?"
How can it change so much if it is not stimulated? What a delicate boy my eldest nephew used to be, but now that he has a flat haircut, his appearance has dropped by half.
I don't know if it can work? Lu Huanian thought to himself, showing a disgusted expression towards Jiang Yan.
girlfriend
As soon as Jiang Yan heard these three words, his face changed, and no one should mention his girlfriend in the future. He would reflexively mention it, and the tip of his nose seemed to be full of fishy smell and greasy touch.
"Auntie, I'm still young, and I should focus on my career. How can I think about these things about children's love every day? And I don't think marriage is an inevitable stage of life, so I don't plan to find a girlfriend for the time being."
Jiang Yan said seriously.
Lu Huanian glanced at his nephew suspiciously, and felt that he was a little strange today. Because this kid grew up well and studied music, he was very popular since he was in high school.
His character is also that the louder he is, the more he is turbulent, and he uses one method after another to seduce girls, but he has never been a serious master. Why is he so abnormal today? She frowned and said: "Jiang Yan, you won't suddenly find out Apart from your own sexual orientation, you actually like men, right?"
Jiang Yan's face darkened: "...Auntie, just tell me, what do you want from me?"
"Auntie just wanted to ask you for a favor." When it came to business, Lu Huanian stopped joking and showed a kind smile on his face.
Jiang Yan shrunk his neck subconsciously, and said cautiously: "Auntie can tell you anything, and I will help if I can. There is no need to ask, isn't this what a nephew should do?"
When was the last time Lu Huanian showed such a smile, Jiang Yan still remembers it clearly, it was a winter ten years ago, when he and the Lu family went to the countryside to worship their ancestors, they passed by a pond, Lu Huanian urged him to grab the roadside As a result, he was caught by the goose's beak on his lap before he touched the goose's feathers.
Later, he was chased two miles away by big geese, and his screams drowned out the sound of firecrackers. Up to now, he still doesn’t dare to eat birds like chickens, ducks and geese. How much damage does the mind do
So, now seeing Lu Huanian showing such a smile again, Jiang Yan's heart trembled reflexively.
"It's actually a very small matter." Lu Huanian smiled even more tenderly, she gave Jiang Yan a hand and said, "Come on, let's go upstairs and talk, it just so happens that this matter has something to do with your grandma."
When Jiang Yan heard that he had something to do with Jiang Shuhua, he felt a little more relaxed. Grandma had always been kind to him, and she would not intentionally tease him.
The two came to the top floor. Jiang Shuhua built a hanging garden on the top floor of the villa, covered with a layer of glass. Usually, she drinks tea on the top floor when the weather is bad, and goes to the yard when the weather is good. Now, she is having an afternoon drink here. Tea.
When he saw Jiang Yan coming up, he was also startled, and after watching for two seconds, he said: "Jiang Yan, you don't look good."
Jiang Yan only felt that it was a sword in the chest. He had been criticized by several people for being unattractive. He couldn't say that his beauty provoked crimes. For the safety of his life, he could only pretend to be ugly.
Jiang Yan showed a wry smile and said, "Grandma Zu, why did you ask me to come here?"
"Sit down and talk." Jiang Shuhua became excited when this matter was mentioned, pointed to the chair and said, "Jiang Yan, we would like to invite you to play a play with us."
Jiang Yan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What play?"
Lu Huanian sat down next to him, told about Lu Henian's love for Yunrong, but didn't say it out, and kept it in his heart, and said excitedly: "We just want you to pursue Yunrong and let your second uncle eat it." Be jealous, open your mind!"
Just as Jiang Yan sat down, when he heard this, he jumped up from the chair in shock, waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, I really can't, Second Uncle won't let me go."
Last time, I just made a joke with Yunrong casually. The second uncle looked at him and made him tremble. How dare Lu Henian do such a thing.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan began to shrink back.
"If you don't agree, your second uncle won't do anything to you, and I won't let you go now." Lu Huanian said with a quick eye, grabbed the clothes on his shoulders, and said with a smile.
"Auntie..." Jiang Yan was carried away by Lu Huanian, and called out pitifully, like a forced daughter-in-law.
"Just now you said that if you have anything to say, just say it, you will definitely help, how can you say nothing, right?" Lu Huanian smiled even more gently, and she touched Jiang Yan's hair "lovingly" and said: "You Help me with this, your second uncle may not let you go, but if you refuse now, I will attack you right away, you will die sooner or later, you choose one."
Jiang Yan regretted it. He might not be fit to go out. Last time he went out and met the bone spirit, he was so scared that he died half of his life. Today he encountered this kind of thing again when he went out. He should stay at home. Why did he go out
"Grandma..." He glanced at Jiang Shuhua again, hoping that Grandma would say something for him.
Jiang Shuhua coughed lightly, and when she heard Jiang Yan's cry, she immediately raised her hand to cover her eyes, and pretended to cry: "Jiang Yan, you should help grandma grandma, you see, I'm in my sixties this year, you two Uncle is still a lonely one, I feel uncomfortable in my heart, you say that I am an old man who is dying, and I want to see my son marry a wife, why is it so difficult... "
Retired years? Jiang Yan looked at Jiang Shuhua's face without spots, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Seeing that Jiang Yan stopped struggling, Jiang Shuhua said again: "Isn't there no suitable candidate? Those who are the right age are not as handsome as you, those who are more handsome than you are not as talented as you, and those who are more talented than you are dull and can speak well There are so many things to argue about, Jiang Yan is the most suitable choice, you can help your second uncle, if you help, I will tell your father, don't let you go to the company to exercise so early."
When Jiang Yan heard Jiang Shuhua's words, his eyes lit up. He never wanted to join the company so early. If grandma could say something for him, it would be more effective than saying ten words for him.
Lu Huanian immediately answered, "That's right, your grandma and I have thought about so many people, and we still think you are the most suitable. Jiang Yan, your second uncle's lifelong happiness depends on your performance. You have to work harder."
Jiang Yan was a little proud of being praised. He blamed himself for being good-looking and excellent. Such a heavy responsibility fell on him, and he was a little gloating. He was bullied every time. This time he was able to see the jokes of his second uncle. Excited to think about it.
The more Jiang Yan thought about it, the more excited he became, and he didn't feel scared anymore, but he still said: "If the second uncle blames me then, you can save me."
"That's for sure!" Jiang Shuhua and Lu Huanian both smiled and nodded.
···
In Lu's company, Yun Rong was doing math problems. After Lu Henian taught for a few days, she could already do some basic problems. Lu Henian was sitting behind the desk, while dealing with the company's affairs, he looked up from time to time to see the little girl doing the problems. Case.
The afternoon sun shines through the blinds, leaving a few silhouettes on the ground, and the whole office is quiet and warm.
"Okay, I've been working for half an hour, let's take a break." Seeing the little girl's distressed expression, Lu Henian smiled and said, "Want to eat? I'll ask Wang Jing to order."
As soon as Yunrong heard about the rest, a smile appeared on his face, he put down the pen casually, stood up and stretched, and said, "No need, there are still a lot of snacks in the refrigerator." Then he asked, "Why didn't Zhang Chongming come to work today? "
"Something happened to his family..." Although Wang Jing helped to ask for leave in the morning, Zhang Chongming also called him later to explain the reason. His girlfriend's younger brother Luo Xiaofeng had been missing for four or five days, and he also reported to the police. There is no news at all, and everyone in the Luo family has collapsed, so Zhang Chongming asked for leave today to accompany his girlfriend.
Thinking of this, Lu Henian asked: "Yun Rong, do you think the Bone Demon and the Mirror Demon came out to harm people by themselves, or did they take orders from someone?"
Yunrong paused while eating potato chips and said, "When I caught them, they all mentioned Xianjun, maybe they were ordered by Xianjun, but when I was by the Suli River, except for the mirror demon, there was no It's a little strange to notice other monsters."
If monsters harm people, no matter how advanced their cultivation is, there will always be monster aura left. It is just a question of whether there is more or less monster aura. Now that there is no monster aura, Yun Rong pursed the corners of her lips and said seriously: "Look where Wanbo can interrogate What."
As the mountain god of Danqiu Mountain, she was born with the duty to protect the people of one side. No matter what that thing is, she will get rid of him with her own hands if it harms so many young human races.
