Protectorate.
In the bedroom.
Zhong Kui held a jar of Loulan wine in his hand and sat in front of the window sill, staring blankly at the picture of the Snow Girl hanging on the wall.
In the flying snow all over the sky, the beauty is left alone and independent. She is as beautiful as a fairy concubine, longing for but out of reach.
"Tuk tuk tuk." After an unknown amount of time, a slight knock on the door woke him up from his memories.
"Who?!"
There was silence outside the door, but after a moment, the knock on the door sounded again.
Zhong Kui raised his thick eyebrows and stood up suddenly. As a result, he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
Finally he stabilized his body and staggered to the door. He stretched out his hand to open the door. Suddenly, a gust of wind and snow blew in from the outside, hitting him and instantly making him tremble. Goosebumps.
But at this moment, he could no longer feel the cold, because the woman in his memories appeared in front of him so vividly that he couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.
"Won't you invite me to come in and sit down?" Xue Qing asked with a smile.
"Xue'er..." Zhong Kui called out movingly, grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
“Bang.”
Xue Qing lifted her right foot back, closed the open wooden door, and then opened her mouth and spit out a bubble, covering the two of them.
"Yao Li, you..." Zhong Kui froze.
Xue Qing hugged his body that was as hot as a flame and murmured: "You already knew that, didn't you?"
Zhong Kui: "..."
Yes.
He has known it for a long time, but he has been reluctant to admit it.
"Why didn't you recognize me before?" Zhong Kui didn't want to talk about this topic anymore and was reluctant to push it away, so he asked silently.
"There are outsiders in front of the city gate and in the tents." Xue Qing explained.
Zhong Kui gradually relaxed: "You came to Hudu to see me?"
Xue Qing paused slightly, and gradually left the embrace that made her greedy: "No, I "I came here for the demon spirit."
Zhong Kui: "..."
"Zhong Kui, do demons deserve to die?" Xue Qing asked again.
Zhong Kui subconsciously said: "There are no monsters that are harmless to people, just like people can eat meat."
"Are there not people who have been vegetarians all their lives?" Xue Qing asked.
Zhong Kui was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Too few, too few."
"Few, does not mean none." Xue Qing stared at Zhong Kui's eyes tightly and said: " I have never harmed anyone, Zhong Kui, do you want to kill me?”
Zhong Kui was silent.
"Are the demon spirits here with you?" Xue Qing took a deep breath and started a new topic.
Zhong Kui shook his head: "Not with me."
After hesitating for a moment, he whispered: "The demon spirit was stolen."
"Stolen?" Qing was dumbfounded.
This means that you stole the demon spirit, but then the demon spirit was stolen by others?
Zhong Kui smiled bitterly and said: "The demon spirit was stolen the night we retrieved it. The sacred beast Qilin that protected the demon spirit died tragically as a result. Zhang Xianren searched for two days but could not find the whereabouts of the demon spirit."
Xue Qing: " ..."
This is outrageous. Unbelievable.
"Do you have any suspicions?" There was no word to each other, and the silence lasted for a long time. After all, it was Xue Qing who broke the silence.
"Zhang Xianren suspected that Daozhang Lin and Daozhang Qin had stolen it, because on the surface, they were the only ones with such strength, but he had no evidence, and after several tests, he couldn't find any problems." Zhong Kui said.
"Zhang Daoxian is not a good person." Xue Qing said in a deep voice.
Zhong Kui frowned: "He killed the demon just to save the people..."
"No, you don't know him." Xue Qing said: "He found the Demon King and told him that Yang Po can It’s the cultivation of demon spirits that causes demons to attack humans.”
“Impossible,” Zhong Kui said flatly.
Xue Qing looked serious: "If you don't believe it, I can take you to see the Demon King right now."
Zhong Kui: "..."
The demon spirit was stolen from the demon world by himself. , how dare he go to the devil world to see the devil?
“Forget it.” Xue Qing didn’t like the silence between the two of them, so she turned to say, “What is Zhang Daoxian doing now?”
“He went to heaven to invite Xie Zhi. , I am going to use Xie Zhi’s mouth to confirm whether the demon spirit is in the hands of the master and the disciple." Zhong Kui said.
Xue Qing thought thoughtfully: "Are the master and disciple very powerful?"
"Don't mess around." Zhong Kui said seriously.
“Zhong Kui, help me.”
Xue Qing held his hand tightly, her face full of sincerity: “There are good and bad people, and there are also monsters. Not all monsters are bad. If the demon world dies, then thousands of innocent demons will either die tragically or break into the human world and start a war with humans for survival. We must prevent this from happening. "
Zhong Kui looked struggling and hesitant.
Without saying a word, Xue Qing held his cheeks with both hands and kissed him directly...
The next day.
The third day when the demon left the demon world.
In the bedroom, Zhong Kui reached out and stroked Xue Qing's waterfall-like hair, and whispered: "Does it have to be like this?"
"It's not too late." Xue Qing took a pill. The medicine was delivered to Zhong Kui and he said: "Find the demon spirit first. Zhang Daoxian has so many worries, but I don't."
Zhong Kui sighed, swallowed the elixir, and strode out.
After watching him leave, Xue Qing put a piece of incense into the incense burner in the room. As a wisp of flame emerged from her fingertips, the incense burner immediately released wisps of smoke, which melted in the room, forming a wisp of smoke. A light aroma.
Not long after, Zhong Kui invited Uncle Jiu and Qin Yao to the bedroom, closed the door and window, and said sincerely: "I invite you two to come here today, mainly because I want to ask you to help me."
"What are you busy with?" Uncle Jiu asked curiously.
Zhong Kui took out the bone fan given to him by Zhang Daoxian, cut his palm with the sharp blade, roared in front of the two of them and transformed into a red monster, and asked in a sullen voice: "Dare you ask me? Bit, am I a divine body or a demonic body?”
After having a long conversation with Xue Qing last night, he had become more or less suspicious of Zhang Daoxian.
Uncle Jiu raised his hand and pressed it on his lower abdomen, sensed the power attribute in this body, and said in a solemn voice: "It is undoubtedly a demonic body, and the magic power flowing in the body is also magic."
Zhong Kui was silent for a long time and said quietly: "But Zhang Xianren told me that this is my potential. Divine body."
The master and disciple looked at each other, and then Qin Yao said: "This is a matter between you and Zhang Xianren, we will not comment."
After that. After two consecutive tests, as long as he was still in the Protector's Mansion, he would be suspicious of anyone who spoke.
Zhong Kui could understand their current attitude and said bluntly: "Are you afraid that this is Zhang... Daoxian's trap again? Don't be afraid, it's not. I can reveal another news to you. Zhang Daoxian has returned to heaven. He is not in the world at the moment.”
Qin Yao. He raised his eyebrows and asked: "Then what is your purpose?"
"The truth." Zhong Kui said: "I want to know the truth, and I don't want to be a fool who is kept in the dark."< br>
