After rebirth, Bai Yueguang became a black lotus

Lu Youzhi was still in the same carriage as Master Zhou.

The sound of horse hooves clattering.

The carriage was not moving very fast. Lu Youzhi sat in the carriage, opened the curtain and looked out the window. There were lush flowers and trees, and the air was not very fresh. The people of the Qingjun Sect were very bad and they were always killing people on the road, so the smell of blood in the air was a bit strong.

"The people of the Qingjun Sect are really going too far."

Lu Youzhi lowered the curtain and said angrily: "If I catch them, I will kill them without hesitation."

After that, she looked at Mr. Zhou again, her eyes full of worry: "Brother Zhu, you have been delayed on the road for so many days because of Mr. Tang, what if..."

She hesitated to speak, but Master Zhou understood what she meant and smiled, "Nothing."

"Jiang Sheng is a very capable demon catcher. He can make rapid progress in a short time. This little delay is not a big deal. Besides, I can't just watch Mr. Tang die."

He looked helpless.

His lies were like bubbles that burst at the slightest touch. If he was really worried about Mr. Tang, he could have left a few guards to protect him closely instead of waiting here with a large group of people.

Lu Youzhi felt that Zhou Congzhu treated her as a fool.

She looked touched but a little conflicted: "Brother Zhu, you are so kind to Mr. Tang, but...some people don't deserve you to be so kind to them."

Lu Youzhi began to close the net.

For three days, she tried her best to play the role of an innocent demon catcher who was ignorant of the world. However, even so, a hint of vigilance would occasionally flash in Zhou Congzhu's eyes when he looked at her.

After thinking about it, she realized that her only flaw was the conversation with Mr. Tang.

He knew what Mr. Tang had said to her, but she had been keeping it to herself, and it had become a thorn in his heart. So, today, she would pull out the thorn from his heart.

"what?"

Sure enough, Master Zhou was stunned, and his eyes instantly became more lively, but it was only for a moment, and he returned to his usual calm and indifferent appearance: "I never care whether a person is worthy or not, as long as I have a clear conscience."

“But…but.”

Lu Youzhi was very conflicted. She wanted to tell Mr. Zhou what Mr. Tang had said to her, but she was afraid that Mr. Zhou would be unhappy. She thought about it again and again, and finally said, "But Mr. Tang said bad things about you in front of me."

"Oh?" Mr. Zhou was surprised: "What did he say about me?"

"He said you're not a good person." Lu Youzhi lowered her head and pouted: "He said you... Hey, anyway, they're not good words, you'd better not listen."

Mr. Zhou raised his lips, and without further questioning, he just looked at Lu Youzhi lovingly: "Do you believe him then?"

"Of course I didn't."

Lu Youzhi immediately shook her head: "In fact, I never believed him. You are so nice, how could you be a bad person?"

"That's fine." Mr. Zhou's smile was extremely gentle, his eyes were deep and full of affection: "As long as you don't believe it."

Lu Youzhi nodded heavily.

……

Lu Youzhi's closing of the net obviously won the trust of Master Zhou. Master Zhou's attitude towards her became much more natural. Lu Youzhi noticed the change in his attitude and knew that he would probably take action tonight.

Time flies, and it's time to take a break again.

There is still no ruined temple.

However, the team arrived at a village. The village was empty and silent, but the houses in the village were made of blue bricks and red tiles, and the vegetables in the fields were growing well.

This is a very good place to stay.

"Let's rest here tonight."

Because there was no one in the village, the carriage went straight into the village. Lu Youzhi jumped off the carriage and looked around. There was still no evil or ghostly aura here.

But her intuition told her that this was where Master Zhou was going to take action.

Someone in the crowd spoke up: "The houses here are so well built, but no one lives in them."

"Most likely, they were killed by the Qingjun Cult."

"Look, there's still garlic on the door."

“This room is clean too…”

The team had casually entered these empty houses. The large houses with blue bricks and red tiles were clean and dust-free, as if people had lived there for a long time. Although the people present felt that something was wrong, they did not think much about it.

After all, they were really too tired and couldn't wait to rest, so without waiting for Master Zhou to find a reason, they could find excuses to comfort themselves.

The mystery surrounding Master Zhou is getting bigger and bigger.

Lu Youzhi looked at Mr. Zhou and said, "Let's find a room closer to rest."

“But it’s really strange…”

She frowned and looked around: "It looks like someone lives here, why is there no one here?"

"Perhaps, they are hiding?"

Master Zhou still smiled and said to Lu Youzhi, "The people of the Qingjun Sect are so brutal and arrogant now. When they see us coming, they might mistake us for the Qingjun Sect and hide in the mountains."

This makes sense.

Lu Youzhi's brows relaxed slightly.

Seeing this, Master Zhou continued, "No problem. We will stay at their house and they will leave a little change as rent."

"it is good."

Lu Youzhi pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother Zhu, you are really thoughtful."

Master Zhou also laughed.

Master Zhou asked Meng Qi to stop others from moving around freely, and found a few adjacent houses to arrange accommodation for everyone.

Lu Youzhi still lived in the same house with Miss He and Miss Zhang, but because there were more rooms here, they no longer had to squeeze in together.

Naturally, there are more than three people living in a house, there are also Miss Zhao, Miss Chen... I don't know if Meng Qi did it on purpose, but the people living under the same roof with Lu Youzhi tonight are all admirers of Mr. Zhou.

Of course, not entirely.

There was also the little girl to whom Lu Youzhi once gave a steamed bun.

She was dirty all over, and her eyes lit up when she saw Lu Youzhi.

"elder sister."

She ran towards Lu Youzhi, and Lu Youzhi looked at her. It was not completely dark yet, and it was a little gray, but the outline of the little girl was still clearly visible.

"It is you."

Lu Youzhi recognized her at a glance. Her hair was still as oily, but her eyes were still clear and transparent: "What do you want?"

The little girl looked shy and said, "I'm fine. I just want to thank you for the steamed buns that day."

It was just a piece of steamed bun, and Lu Youzhi had long since stopped taking it to heart.

She shook her head and was about to say you’re welcome, when the little girl took out a steamed bun from her pocket and said, “You gave me a steamed bun that day… I, I, I saved it up these few days, and I’m paying you back, sister.”

Her steamed bun had turned a little black.

Lu Youzhi was stunned. She never expected that the little girl would actually think of returning the steamed bun to her.

"You...you gave it to me?"

"Yes."

The little girl nodded: "I can't ask my sister for food for nothing."

A steamed bun is a very precious thing in the little girl's world.
