Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Alvin, why are you back so late?" Sullivan saw Alvin coming back and lazily propped himself up from the sofa: "Did you come back without food?"

"Get up, change your clothes, we're leaving here."

"So soon? We've only moved here a week, and we've still paid one month's rent."

"Meeting someone who knows us, we have to get out of here."

Regardless of whether Chen Zhao calls the police or not, they cannot stay here any longer.

There will be risks if you stay here. In their line of work, you can't take any risks.

Sullivan quickly put on her clothes and packed her things.

The two sisters erased all traces of themselves, as if they had never been here.

…

"Mr. Chen, tonight is the night of the full moon. Please prepare yourself. I will pick you up tonight."

Pierce Nan called to inform Chen Zhao, and Chen Zhao actually already knew about Ted Pamton's treasure location.

Because that enchantment seal was arranged by Onri Gargamel, and now Onri Gargamel has become Raymond's servant, Chen Zhao knows that enchantment seal very well.

Therefore, as long as Pierce Nan doesn't make any mistakes or try to take advantage of others, it should be a sure thing.

In the evening, Pierce Nan came.

Chen Zhao brought all the demon servants with him, except for Amon, who was still submerged in the water.

Pierce Nan was a little confused when he saw this large group of pets, large and small, crowded into his car.

"Mr. Chen, why do you bring so many pets?"

"To make sure you don't take advantage of me, you won't kill me after you find the treasure."

"But now I'm worried that you will take advantage of others..."

Black and White, Wanda, and Obitos, all of them are extremely powerful.

A bite from any of them will cost you half your life.

Pierce South himself is a wizard who fights against the five scum. What he regrets most now is that he didn't bring a gun.

"Mr. Pierce, actually you don't have to worry so much. I'm just trying to protect myself and have no intention of taking advantage of others."

"But I'm still scared, what should I do?"

"Our cooperation is based on mutual trust, and you should trust me."

"Can I go back and bring a gun?"

Chen Zhao smiled coldly, Pierce Nan stopped talking, covered his head and drove.

In fact, Pierce Nan relatively trusted Chen Zhao, so he approached Chen Zhao to cooperate.

Chen Zhao was able to distribute more than 10 million US dollars in gold to the townspeople, so Pierce Nan decided to cooperate with Chen Zhao.

Of course, that was wealth worth millions of dollars, and he couldn't completely guarantee that Chen Zhao wouldn't take advantage of it.

Just as Pierce Nan was on tenterhooks, Chen Zhao was also wary of Pierce Nan.

After all, no one of them had cooperated with anyone before, and they were completely strangers to each other.

Ted Pampton hid his collection very deep inside the mountains.

And it's the kind of place that's off the beaten path.

The car stopped in front of the mountain, and then we had to hike up the mountain.

"Mr. Chen, I heard that you are planning to build a villa by Mirror Lake, right?"

"Um."

"Is that why you are so anxious for money now?"

"So be it."

Although there is enough money to build a villa, one house cannot solve all the problems in life.

To maintain a high quality of life, of course more money is needed.

"What about you? You came here to take risks, but you also need money urgently?" Chen Zhao asked.

"I can't deal with the trivial matters in the company, so I can only turn my mind to Ted Pamton. Huh... you have really good physical fitness. Do all of you Eastern wizards have such good physical fitness? "

"Exercise more on weekdays." Chen Zhao rolled his eyes.

This is not like a novel where magicians must be physically weak.

In fact, this is like a top student, he can also exercise to become stronger.

After the two walked away for a while, Pierce Nan felt the need to find a topic: "I have a wife."

"Well, most people only have one."

"I have another child."

"Then what?"

"So if you want to take advantage of others, can you consider my family and don't kill me?"

"..."

The mountain road is very difficult to walk, and there is even no road to walk on.

Although they had already brought some equipment before traveling.

For example, wearing hiking boots, or bringing ropes and picks.

However, Pierce Nan was still struggling, but Chen Zhao was much more relaxed.

After all, his physical fitness is there. As long as he doesn't go to an extremely harsh environment, Chen Zhao won't have a big problem.

"How far is it from the destination?" Chen Zhao asked.

Although he knew the approximate location from Onry Gargamel, he had never been there, so he didn't know how far it was.

Moreover, it is impossible for Weng Rui Gargamel to explain the exact coordinates of this kind of deep mountain and old forest.

"About ten kilometers, and then over two mountains." Pierce Nan said.

"Can you still walk?"

"You have to go even if you can't. You must arrive before twelve o'clock." Pierce Nan said breathlessly: "Otherwise, you have to wait until the next full moon night."

"Do you want me to carry you?"

Pierce Nan was delighted: "Is it okay? Are you sure?"

"I will carry you for one kilometer and I will pick one item from your harvest." Chen Zhao grinned.

Pierce Nan rolled his eyes: "Forget it, I can still persist."

Chen Zhao still has plenty of physical strength, but this mountain road is too difficult to walk.

Sometimes his feet slipped and Chen Zhao could not stand completely.

Black and White, Wanda, and Beelzebub were much more relaxed, jumping up and down as if they were walking on flat ground.

Even Obitus is as fast as flying when crawling in the mountains and forests, swinging his big tail and sprinting for 100 meters at every turn.

It can be said that the two of them have gone through many hardships along the way, just like seeking scriptures from the West.

It was around five o'clock when we set off. I originally thought six or seven hours would be enough.

As a result, after actually entering the mountain, they discovered that time was tighter than they imagined.

Especially Pierce Nan couldn't keep up, and in the end Chen Zhao had to carry him on his back for the last part of the journey.

Finally, we arrived at our destination at 11.30pm, a cave hidden in the mountains.

Because the mountains here are high, the roads are slippery, the air humidity is high, and there are few people around, the first feeling here is that of discomfort and depression.

Moreover, the trees above blocked the moonlight, so the cave was even deeper and darker.

Pierce Nan was panting like an ox and sat on the ground unable to stand up.

"Sure enough, it's here." Pierce Nan probably wasn't here for the first time. At least he knew the route very clearly, and it didn't look like it was his first time here.

Just like Chen Zhao, he knows the approximate location, but if he is asked to search across mountains and ridges, he may not be able to find it in a short time.

"This cave can only be found on a full moon night," Pierce Nan explained.

In fact, Chen Zhao had already known it from Ongrui Gargamel, and he even knew exactly what was inside.
