Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Where?"

"An ancient passage."

"What passage?"

"The gateway to hell."

"What?"

"Someone once built a gate to hell near here, but failed."

"Where? Is it far?"

"It's about an hour's walk."

"Is it so far?" Chen Zhao hesitated.

"How about going tomorrow?"

"Let's talk about it when we have time. It takes an hour to walk, which is really too far."

"That place can only be seen when the moon is full. You have the opportunity in the next three days. If you exceed this time limit, you will have to wait until next month."

"What's so interesting about a failed hell gate?" Chen Zhao asked in confusion.

"That is a gate to hell that can be entered but cannot come out. The person who made the gate of hell may have wanted to create a two-way gate to hell that can be entered and exited."

"What's the point?"

"Of course it doesn't make sense to you. You can enter and exit hell by yourself. You don't need to enter and exit from the gate of hell. But it is of great significance to ordinary humans."

"I had no idea what this gate to hell was for."

"Imagine that a relative of yours dies, and you want to see him. You can go through this hell gate and see your relative who has fallen into hell."

"This is too whimsical. Even if the soul falls into hell, but hell is so big, how can it be found?"

"No need to look for it. If the soul has not been caught by the devil, then you only need to use devil magic to send a soul in, and then the soul of that person's relative can be sent out from the gate of hell. If it has fallen into the hands of the devil, Then you need to trade with more souls.”

"But even if you summon the souls of your loved ones back, they will still be incomplete, right?"

"Yes, this is your human obsession. Not everyone can be so rational."

"Sleep, sleep, we'll talk tomorrow."

…

Chen Zhao kept thinking about Lao Hei's words and could not sleep peacefully.

This caused his sleep quality to be extremely poor, and he was still listless when he woke up the next day.

In addition, I entered the fire scene yesterday and my physical strength has not recovered.

Chen Zhao felt sore in his neck and couldn't use any strength in his limbs.

Chen Zhao is a doctor himself and knows that this condition is caused by muscle fatigue caused by sudden high-intensity physical exertion.

Chen Zhao unblocked his own meridians, and the symptoms were slightly relieved.

Beelzebub, Raymond and Carrie, they had just fallen asleep after struggling all night.

Knock knock——

Chen Zhao opened the door and it was Ge Lin.

"Ge Lin, why are you here?"

"What? Are you not welcome? Or is there another woman hiding in your home?"

Chen Zhao moved out of the way and let Ge Lin in: "Don't you have to go to work today?"

Ge Lin entered the house and picked up the milk Chen Zhao drank.

"A big case has just been solved, and Melson gave me two days off."

Chen Zhao poured another glass of milk: "So you can stay with me for the next two days?"

"So you missed me?"

"Of course." Chen Zhao directly pulled Ge Lin back to the bedroom.

After morning exercises, the two of them went downstairs again.

"Do you have any work today?"

"No, I can use my time as you wish."

"Let's go camping."

"OK."

Ge Lin really wanted to relax, otherwise she wouldn't have taken Chen Zhao to the camping trip.

"Take the kids."

Ge Lin liked these little devils very much, and even envied Chen Zhao for being able to train these little guys to be so well-behaved and obedient.

The town where Chen Zhao lives is called Dashan Town, naturally because there are several rolling mountains nearby.

For one morning, Chen Zhao and Ge Lin were tired of being together.

After lunch, the two began to pack their camping belongings, got into Ge Lin's car and hit the road.

Twenty minutes later, we arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Chen Zhao carried the big luggage and handed the other one to Wanda, who was the largest.

"Ge Lin, have you ever been camping here?"

"I've been here, but not for camping. A body was found near here half a year ago."

"Okay... Let's stop this topic."

"There is a lake over there, let's go camp there."

Ge Lin didn't know that there was an extra person in their team... It should be said that he was a demon, Lao Hei.

"The hell gate I mentioned is on the river upstream of the lake. Do you want to go and have a look?"

"Let's change it some time. Ge Lin is here."

Chen Zhao didn't want to ruin the camping atmosphere. When he arrived at the lake, Chen Zhao suddenly felt a refreshing breath entering his heart.

The lake is sparkling, the breeze is rippling, the water is clear, and there are dense jungles on both sides.

"If I had money, I would definitely buy this place and build a villa here." Ge Lin said with emotion.

Indeed, the scenery here is pleasant, the air is fresh, and the natural environment is well preserved.

Anyone who comes here will fall in love with it.

“This piece of land doesn’t cost tens of millions, so you can’t get it, right?”

"Chen, you are thinking too much. This land cannot exceed US$500,000 at most."

"How is this possible? How can such a high-quality environment only cost half a million dollars?"

"This is neither cultivated land nor a farm. It has almost no development value, and the transportation is inconvenient. There are no homes around it. How much value do you think it has?"

In Chen Zhao's opinion, half a million dollars is definitely worth the money compared to this piece of land.

However, half a million US dollars is not a small amount of money for Chen Zhao.

"Human, if you buy this land, then Xiaosan will have enough space for activities in the future, and she will no longer have to be stuck in the cracks of space every day." Lao Hei said.

"But, didn't you just settle down in that gap in space?"

"I can move the space gap here, or directly move everything inside."

"Can the space gap be moved?"

"Although it's a little troublesome, it's not impossible."

"But, I have no money."

Chen Zhao is not without money. During this period, he made a lot of money, but it was only half a million US dollars.

Even if you spend all your money to buy this land and build a house, it will still cost money.

Moreover, a road to the highway needs to be built, which also costs a lot of money.

"Don't worry, it's not that easy to move a gap in space anyway."

"Did you encourage me to buy this land just to give Mistress and the others a place to play?"

"The key is that this place is very close to the gate of hell."

"What does this have to do with you?"

"That hell gate may have been built by the former soul seducer of the space gap. I want to study the space gap. If you place your home here, it will be more convenient for me to travel to and from the hell gate."
