I’m Being Held Captive by Demons

The research on the mysterious black tank did not last long.

After Kong Ning roughly figured out the situation, he recited the Enlightenment Sutra silently to regulate the demon power in his body.

Although the monster powers from different monsters have been refined by the mysterious black tank, they have been completely used by Kong Ning.

However, with many complicated and different monster powers mixed together, there is always a sense of stagnation when using it.

Reciting the Enlightenment Sutra silently in the heart can help Kong Ning to continuously purify and integrate those chaotic and complicated demon powers, making Kong Ning a more handy imperial envoy.

Although the further to the back, the more general the effect.

But after all, it still works, and it is also a great pastime for Kong Ning to pass the time.

Right now, he has nothing to do.

Wan'er didn't send a message to inform him that the mysterious black tank hadn't accumulated enough fog to look for the demon.

As for Su Yan's affairs, I need to pay a little attention.

But it will take time for Su Yan to investigate the county magistrate and cast spells to scare people.

Even if Kong Ning is lazy and goes home now, he probably won't see the demon girl, so he can stay at the Yamen to fish.

At noon, the arresters who were acquainted with Ma Liuwang Hu and the others quickly went to Zuixianlou for lunch, and returned to the Yamen in the afternoon to continue fishing.

At dusk, when the yamen was released, Kong Ning took the jujube horse to bid farewell to Ma Liu and the others, and once again declined the invitation to go to Chunfenglou for a drink together, and rode the jujube horse to Huaishu Lane alone.

In the county town, the afterglow of the setting sun fell between the streets and alleys, reflecting the bluestone-paved streets blood red.

Everyone walking on the street seemed to be wearing a faint blood.

It was early autumn, and although it was still hot at noon, it was already cold at dusk.

A gust of cool wind blew by, rolling up pieces of dead leaves.

When Kong Ning passed the door of Dianyushu Pavilion on a jujube horse, the shopkeeper Yu Shusheng was about to close the door.

Seeing Kong Ning passing by on a horse, Yu Shusheng, who was in his thirties and thin, hurriedly shouted.

Ning catcher! Wait a moment! Please stay!

Kong Ning reined in his horse in surprise and stopped by the side of the road, looked at the scholar in his thirties who had accomplished nothing and was guarding a second-hand bookstore, and asked, What's the matter?

But Yu Scholar rubbed his hands together awkwardly, with a smile on his face.

There is a new batch of good books in the little man's shop, and they are about to be sent to Ning Butou for tasting. Since Ning Butou is passing by, the villain will just present it... Ning Butou wait a moment.

As he said that, Yu Shusheng ran into the house in a panic, talking.

It will be ready soon, Ning catcher, you wait a moment! It will be ready soon!

The thin scholar was afraid that Kong Ning would get impatient and leave.

However, he moved very quickly and didn't make Kong Ning wait long.

After about forty or fifty breaths, Yu Shusheng came out with a heavy wooden box in his arms, and said with a flattering smile.

These are the newly arrived books in the villain's store. They are all high-quality goods. I hope that Catcher Ning can bring them back to have a taste.

This scholar Yu wants to bribe in broad daylight.

Kong Ning looked at his nervous and scared look in surprise, and suddenly remembered that when he went to the Yamen to ask for leave a few days ago, he did ask Wang Hu and the others to take care of this guy.

Now it looks like this guy has been taken care of.

Kong Ning took the box of books with a smile, weighed it, and said: The books inside are all healthy, right?

I'm very serious. I only like healthy books. I don't want unhealthy books.

The few broken books that this guy sent before had caused Kong Ning to be tortured enough, otherwise he wouldn't have asked someone to take care of Dianyushuge.

If this guy keeps his eyes open and dares to send unhealthy books, Kong Ning will probably be like Zhang and drink medicine every day.

But Kong Ning's question made Yu Shusheng nod quickly, and promised with a flattering smile: Healthy and healthy! Very healthy! Absolutely healthy! I won't let the head catcher Ning down.

Kong Ning just nodded, and said: Okay, then I will accept your wish. I will take these books home and read them slowly. Be smart in the future, kid, and don't sell those unscrupulous books.

Forbidden books and banned books are all banned books, how can you sell them casually?

Fortunately, it's me this time. If you let the adults know that you sell banned books in Yushu Pavilion, I'm afraid that your bookstore will be blocked directly.

Kong Ning then spoke on the spot and prepared to leave.

Yu Shusheng nodded again and again, and said, That's right, that's right, Catcher Ning taught me a lesson. The villain will sell books obediently in the future and don't mess around again. I hope Catcher Ning will take care of him.

It's easy to talk about it, Kong Ning said, holding a heavy box of books, You kid, be smarter in the future, just don't sell those unhealthy books.

With that said, Kong Ning rode away on horseback.

As for the books in the box, it is not easy to open the box on a horse, so I plan to read it slowly after I get back.

No matter how much this is, the scholar dare not lie to him.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Kong Ning returned to Huaishu Lane on his jujube horse.

Under the locust tree in front of the house, the parents sat and enjoyed the cool as always.

The old locust tree with withered leaves seemed to be suffering from a disease. Not only did it lose its leaves, but even the leaves began to turn yellow.

The father, who was resting against the old pagoda tree, saw dead leaves falling from time to time.

This scene looked inexplicably bleak.

After standing under the tree and chatting with his mother for a while, Kong Ning walked into the yard.

However, the courtyard was empty and silent.

The sound of cooking, which is heard every evening when I go home from the yamen, did not sound today.

In the deserted kitchen, there was neither the sound of hot oil tumbling, nor a beautiful face poking out to greet Kong Ning who was coming home with a smile.

He was holding a box of heavy books, and led the date-yellow horse, standing at the door in a daze.

I almost suspected that I went to the wrong door.

What about the scorpion essence?

Why haven't you come back yet?

It's so late, you should be back early, right?

Kong Ning frowned slightly, led the date yellow horse into the stable, then carried the bookcase into the house, and changed into the police uniform on his body.

The front and back yards were still quiet, and there was no trace of the witch.

The head of the cat demon hanging under the eaves of the backyard stared with eyes wide open, as if cursing Kong Ning.

Kong Ning turned around, but did not see the witch, so he had to go back to the wedding room and sit for a while.

Then I remembered that I hadn't opened the bookcase to see what books were inside, so I got up, carried the bookcase over, and opened it.

What appeared in Kong Ning's field of vision was a pile of neatly stacked and beautifully packaged books.

In this era, such a box of books is definitely worth a lot.

The top one is the hottest vernacular novel at the moment.

Kong Ning dug out one by one, only to find that apart from the above few books, the seven or eight books below were all banned books that were rarely circulated in the market and Su Yan loved to read the most.

Thinking back to Yu Shusheng's flattering smile just now, Kong Ning's face was suddenly covered with black lines.

That wretched scholar Yu obviously misunderstood what Kong Ning meant, thinking that Kong Ning was looking for trouble and asking for new banned books.

Damn, if Su Yan sees this box of books, something will happen.

Kong Ning looked up at the sky with a guilty conscience, and found that the scorpion spirit hadn't come back, so he quickly took out the forbidden book inside, and wanted to throw it into the stove and burn it.

But when he walked out the door, he suddenly thought that the witch might come back at any time. If she came back after the book was half burned, it would be difficult to explain when she saw Kong Ning burning the book.

To be on the safe side, Kong Ning ran into the backyard with the eight books in his arms and hid them in the utility room. Going back to find a chance to deal with it.

Next, Kong Ning went back to the front yard and sat in the yard, waiting for the scorpion spirit to come back so he could ask about the magistrate.

However, after waiting, most of the night passed.

Until the middle of the night, when the moon was in the middle of the sky, the whole county fell into a dark silence. Sitting alone in Kongning under the eaves, there was still no sign of Su Yan.

The icy night wind blew the branches and leaves of the pagoda tree above him, making a rustling sound.

In the strangely quiet darkness, Kong Ning suddenly had an illusion.

That cruel and vicious scorpion spirit seems to have disappeared from this world...

If there are no accidents in the future, the update time will be around 12 noon

Hope everyone knows~
