Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Chen, your house is too small. Give me the black horse and the white horse. You see, they can't run away."

"You know, five minutes ago, there was a person who said the same thing, and I just drove him away."

"Uncle, I think dad is right, look at how pitiful the black and white horses are." Fisher, who was tossing the black and white horses, interrupted.

"Fisher, one for you, one for me and Vera, okay?" Ronnie said seriously.

"Now, I'll give you white horses first, and then switch back to black horses tomorrow, okay?" Fisher replied seriously as well.

"Mr. Risfall..."

"Call me Johnny," Risfall said.

"Is Johnny your last name?"

"No, Risfal is my last name, but my family calls me Johnny."

I have to say that Risfar is a very sociable person.

With just one sentence, the relationship was brought closer.

"Um...Isn't this too abrupt..."

Chen Zhao didn't understand why Risfal was suddenly so friendly.

This was their second meeting, so they were definitely not familiar with each other.

"Haha...Actually, I hope that next time Ronnie and Vera come to visit unexpectedly, you won't turn them away."

"I promise, they will always be my most popular guests here."

"Uncle, where am I?" Fisher, who was sitting on the ground, raised his head and looked at Chen Zhao with great interest.

"Of course you do too."

"Fisher Fisher, let me show you a magic trick." Ronnie pulled Fisher, folded her hands together, and then performed the magic trick of detaching her thumbs.

To be honest, this magic was very raw and childish when Ronnie performed it.

But Fisher watched it with gusto and screamed so loudly.

"Uncle, Dad, look at Sister Ronnie, how powerful she is." Fisher shouted excitedly: "Sister Ronnie, how did you break your fingers apart?"

"I can do it too." Dale was the most naive one among the three adults present.

There are many things about him that are childish, for example, his performance is not as good as that of a three-year-old girl.

"Ah, I see it, that's not a disconnect, daddy uses his right thumb," Fisher yelled.

"No, no, I won't watch. Dad is so stupid."

Dell was heartbroken and pulled Chen Zhao: "Chen, you perform a show."

"I don't know magic."

What Dell wants is that Chen Zhao doesn't know magic. Only in this way can he balance his psychology by being despised by Fisher together with him.

"Don't disappoint Fisher, come on and do a random show."

"Okay." Chen Zhao opened his hand: "Look, I don't have anything in my hand."

"Well, nothing."

Chen Zhao shook his hand, and then opened it again, and a pearl appeared on his palm.

"Wow, that's amazing." Fisher, Ronnie and Vera all clapped vigorously.

Dale immediately touched Chen Zhao: "When did you hide the pearl on your body? Where is it hidden?"

"Don't touch it." Chen Zhao slapped Dell's palm away.

"You hid it beforehand, right?"

Chen Zhao closed his palm again, and when he opened it again, he didn't have a pearl in his hand, but a handful of pearls.

Dell's eyes almost popped out: "Are you really good at magic?"

"I also know how to do this magic." Chen Zhao closed his palm again and the pearl disappeared.

Risfal, who was on the side, finally said, "Chen, you are so versatile."

He watched it for a long time, but couldn't see the secret of this magic.

"Uncle, I want to see more, I want to see more."

"Heima, go find a bucket."

Heima came over with a bucket in his mouth. Chen Zhao opened his left hand and said, "There's nothing there."

"Hmm, nothing." The three children looked at Chen Zhao's palm intently.

Chen Zhao held his palm, and then pearls began to leak out from his fingers and fell into the bucket.

After a while, the bottom of the bucket was filled to a level.

"Chen, where did you hide the pearl? Or were you planning to perform this magic trick for us in advance?" Dale asked curiously.

Risfall was also very curious. Close-up magic was the most difficult thing to perform, and there was no supporter who could cooperate.

But he couldn't see any trace of Chen Zhao's close-up magic.

"Chen, teach me this magic trick."

"If you don't teach, you are too stupid." Chen Zhao glanced at Dale and said.

"In front of the children, can you please stop calling me stupid? It affects my dignity."

Chen Zhao performed this little magic just to add a little fun to the children, and he didn't intend to show too much.

When Fali came back in the evening, Dale and Risfall also said goodbye and left.

"Phew...I'm exhausted today."

"What's wrong?"

"Today is the weekend. There are many people and there will be a lot of trouble."

"If you're tired, stop doing it."

"No." Fali refused on the spot.

Chen Zhao didn't force it, it didn't mean that his woman had to stay at home to support her husband and raise her children.

"By the way, I have to leave for a day." Chen Zhao said.

"Huh? Where to go?"

"That's the place."

"Oh...you said it was the place where you suddenly disappeared?"

"Um."

"I really want to go see that place with you..."

Chen Zhao smiled bitterly, he really couldn't bring Fali with him there.

After all, it was hell.

Except for him, if anyone wants to go there, they can only kill themselves first.

"Fali, I can promise you everything else, but I really can't take you to that place."

"I understand, I know you are in trouble." Fali said very understandingly: "When will you leave?"

"Tonight, go early and come back early."

"Yes." Chen Zhao held Fali's shoulders and kissed Fali's hair gently.

Chen Zhao thought that when he went to hell this time, he should bring some specialties from hell to Fali.

Just when Chen Zhao wanted to take a step further, he suddenly found that his body was getting lighter and lighter.

"Fu**...do it again." Chen Zhao cursed angrily.

Before Fali noticed anything strange about Chen Zhao, her body suddenly became light and she threw herself on the sofa only to find that Chen Zhao had disappeared.

"Human, you are finally here. If you don't come, you will be doomed." Beelzebub Zuofei stood in front of Chen Zhao and said.

Chen Zhao walked out of the magic circle: "Your Excellency, this is the precious stone you want."

Chen Zhao took out the pearl, and Beelzebub Zuofei immediately nodded: "Yes, yes, this is it. You didn't just bring this one, right?"

"A lot." Chen Zhao took out all the pearls and placed them in front of Beelzebub Zuofei: "Is this thing called a gem stone in your hell? Is it very precious?"

"Things that are not found in hell are very precious. Many years ago, humans once brought them to hell."

"Then what's the use of this thing?"

"I am brewing the Fountain of Youth, and I need precious stones."

"What fountain of youth?"

"In the words of you humans, it means rejuvenation, but in the words of our demons, it means returning to the prime of life." Beelzebub Zuofei said.

Chen Zhao's eyes lit up: "Then how much can you brew?"

"I'll count your share, and I'll keep one for myself." Beelzebub Zuofi was quite kind in doing things: "I spent almost half of my property to get two bottles of the Fountain of Youth."

"Come on, follow me."
