there is someone behind me

Huaxia Magic Summit, this is the name of this event in the metaphysics circle, of course it cannot be called this when it is registered for the record.Out of curiosity, Zhou Ling searched online for a summary of all the activities held in Hangzhou in July, and finally found a forum for promoting religious harmony reported by a religious association.

Zhou Ling stared at those words for a while, then turned off the phone page.Sure enough, this world is still a victory of materialism, a god-like forum for promoting religious harmony.When the name sounds like a boring activity where Taoist monks sit in rows and drink tea together, no one would have thought that there are a group of people in this world who deal with ghosts, gods and monsters, and they hide among ordinary people.

Because starting from tomorrow's opening ceremony, the contestants will collectively live in another place provided by the organizing committee, so Liu Ruyi talked to Liu Zihong and Zhou Ling alone at night.The content of the conversation was nothing more than reminding the two of what to pay attention to during the competition, which players need to be particularly careful, etc. After talking for about an hour, Liu Ruyi finally encouraged the two of them and asked them to go back to the room to rest.

The first thing Zhou Ling did when he returned to the room was to feed the cat, and then he turned to Liu Zihong and asked, "Is the organizing committee following the competition?"

Sure enough, Liu Zihong nodded: "Indoor competitions will install cameras in the house, and outdoor competitions will require cameras to be carried on the contestants in addition to hidden probes in various places."

Zhou Ling said "wow": "It's like a reality show, is the metaphysics world so fashionable?"

Liu Zihong...Liu Zihong refused to talk to Zhou Ling, took his clothes and walked into the bathroom, closed the door with a "bang" and went to take a shower.

Zhou Ling shrugged and touched Xiao Huang's fluffy fluff: "Since we are going to gather tomorrow, if someone wants to do it, only tonight is left. I hope there will be no big disturbances. I don't want to climb tomorrow." Can't get up."

The little orange cat didn't understand what he was talking about, so it gave a "meow" and continued to lick the kitten food soaked in goat milk.

Liu Zihong's shower was very fast, and he came out full of steam and sat on his bed to practice.Zhou Ling patted the little orange cat, and walked into the bathroom with the small bag.

The water vapor in the bathroom makes people feel a little stuffy.The bright light gave Zhou Ling enough sense of security. He opened the small bag and pasted a few yellow talismans on the four corners of the bathroom, and then took off his clothes slowly.A head of long hair hung down smoothly, covering the beautiful collarbone and fair chest. A few strands of hair fell down with the movement of the wooden comb to unclog the hair. Zhou Ling picked them up one by one and gathered them together.

Adjusting the water temperature to a suitable temperature, Zhou Ling quickly rinsed himself from head to tail, paying special attention to the hair that fell out of him and collected it.

Dressed, hair half-dried.Zhou Ling was not in a hurry to go out, but took out a small candlestick from the small cloth bag. There was a spike in the middle of the lotus-shaped disc to fix the candle, and there was a small handle on the side of the lotus stand.This candlestick is about the size of a palm, not only is there no trace of rust on the copper body, it doesn't even have a black spot.

Zhou Ling put the candlestick and his fallen hair side by side, took out a small white candle from the bag, and fixed it on the candlestick.He took out a blank piece of talisman paper and folded it into a long strip at will. As soon as he shook his hand, the talisman paper ignited spontaneously without fire.

Liu Zihong, who was practicing in the room outside, suddenly raised his head and glanced at the bathroom. He frowned suspiciously. He seemed to feel a little spiritual power fluctuation there just now, but he felt nothing carefully.Only the little orange cat, which had finished eating the cat food, was grinding its paws against the bathroom door tremblingly.

Maybe he was too nervous, it is normal for some spiritual power to fluctuate around the extreme Yin body.Thinking of this, Liu Zihong entered the cultivation state again.

In the bathroom, after Zhou Ling ignited the candles with the talisman fire, he wrapped the fallen hair in the leftover talisman paper and burned it together.The bright yellow flame devoured the talisman paper and the hair, but strangely, there was no smell of burnt hair, not even a bit of debris left.

Only a small whirlwind was blowing in the bathroom.

Zhou Ling was not surprised by this, and muttered in his mouth: "I don't know who is the god who passed by, and now I use spiritual power as a tribute, and pray for a safe and peaceful night."

After finishing speaking, the candle flame in the candlestick flickered for a while, then slowly extinguished, and a wisp of green smoke circled around Zhou Ling, as if confirming who the person who was begging for safety was.

Seeing that the candle went out naturally, Zhou Ling knew that the other party had agreed to protect him tonight, and a faint smile appeared on his face.He quickly packed up his things and pushed the door out.When passing by the little orange cat, he picked it up and placed it at the end of the bed, while he lay down on the bed and played with his mobile phone.

As soon as Liu Zihong finished his practice, he turned his head and saw an indistinguishable beauty laying on the bed next door with her legs crossed. Even though she knew it was a man, she still couldn't help casting her eyes to the next door.

Zhou Ling didn't raise his head and said: "Your eyes are so obvious that even ghosts can know that you are looking at him. If there is such a thing as tracking a ghost in the competition, you may be out of the game in minutes."

Liu Zihong: "...who wants to watch you, I just want to remind you that your cat is about to fall."

As soon as Zhou Ling turned around, it was true that Xiao Huang stretched out his claws and hung on the quilt, and the quilt was almost kicked to the ground by Zhou Ling himself.

Over there, Zhou Ling hurried to hug the cat, and glanced at the hotel quilt guiltily. Fortunately, it was not damaged by the cat's claws. Here, Liu Zihong had already pulled the quilt and lay down: "Remember not to be late tomorrow."

Zhou Ling responded, nodded the little orange cat's head, and whispered a few words not to stretch its claws, and put it back at the end of the bed regardless of whether the little orange cat understood or not.

The waist-length hair was almost dry after drying for so long, so Zhou Ling also lay down.The little cloth bag was on the bedside. He touched the little bag and closed his eyes.

……

A gust of wind swirled around the room for no reason, and it quickly entangled Zhou Ling's hair and rolled up the ends of the hair that was pressed under his body, as if he was greedy for the texture of the ends of the hair, entangled with the hair and kept messing around rub.

Suddenly, it paused.The vague white mist surrounded Zhou Ling firmly and surrounded him.Bit by bit of black air sneaked in from the vent, and rushed towards Zhou Ling's direction, before it got in front of him, it was swallowed up by the white mist.

vomit--

Zhou Ling turned over and seemed to hear the sound of something vomited in her dream.

The white mist rolled for a while, crushing all the black air.At this time, something close to black air but completely different entered the room.It was a very small human-shaped shadow, very vague, and looked as if it would disperse at any moment.It sneaked into the room, seemingly unaware of the white mist.

But Bai Wu roared angrily, don't even try to get close to the guy who offered tribute to these things!

The mist was churning, and quickly condensed into more than a dozen small water arrows, which shot towards the sneaky little black shadow in all directions, and there was no way to avoid it.The little black figure in human form was startled, and was about to disappear immediately, but it was a step too late.

A sound like a baby crying sounded in the room, Liu Zihong woke up immediately, sat up and kept vigilant for a long time but found nothing.He glanced aside Zhou Ling who was still sleeping, as if Zhou Ling, who hadn't heard anything, was normal.But he was sure that the voice he just heard was not a hallucination.

Liu Zihong communicated with his own Liu Linglang for a while, and Liu Linglang gave him the information that a large amount of Yin Qi had just poured into the room, but it was quickly eaten up.Liu Zihong didn't understand what "eat" meant, the only thing he could be sure of was that there was nothing threatening in the room.

Bai Wu huddled under Zhou Ling's blanket, using Zhou Ling's aura to hide herself.After making sure there was nothing to peep in the dark, he got out of bed.

The night gradually receded, and the first ray of morning light appeared in the eastern sky.Bai Wu walked around Zhou Ling reluctantly before leaving slowly.

"Ling Lang resounds, ten directions clear, rivers and seas are silent, mountains swallow smoke..." The phone rang for about ten seconds before Zhou Lingcai yawned and turned off the alarm clock. With sleepy eyes, he turned his head and saw Liu Zihong's face Sitting on the next bed in shock looking at him.

Zhou Ling was taken aback: "What, what?"

Liu Zihong pointed to his mobile phone and said, "Your alarm clock?"

Zhou Ling realized belatedly that this was probably another friend who was startled by his alarm clock.So he explained: "This is clarification rhyme. You know me, uh... my adoptive father is a Taoist priest. They usually have this in their morning classes. I'm used to it."

Liu Zihong nodded with a complex expression, and then saw Zhou Ling's weedy hair.After Zhou Ling got up, he also found his knotted hair, and his whole face collapsed. He hugged the small cloth bag and said to Liu Zihong, "I'll use the bathroom first." Without waiting for Liu Zihong's answer, he bang He closed the door with a snap.

Liu Zihong didn't care about Zhou Ling who was about to be driven crazy by his own hair, but stood in front of Zhou Ling's bed.He bent down and picked up a handful of black ash from the ground.This thing looks a bit wrong.Sure enough, something happened last night.

In the bathroom, Zhou Ling straightened her messed up hair in front of the mirror.He probably knew what the tribute was yesterday, but he didn't expect the other party to like his hair so much. Was it because he wanted to use his hair as a nest?

It took a lot of time to tidy up and tie her hair. Zhou Ling came out of the bathroom and met a pair of inquiring eyes.

Liu Zihong said: "What happened last night?"

"I don't know." Zhou Ling shrugged.

Liu Zihong: "You really don't know? The yin energy last night—"

"You also said that you are very cloudy. If I come to participate in this kind of competition, don't I take some protection? After all, life is important, who doesn't have some life-saving guys on him?" Zhou Ling shook the small cloth bag in his hand and carried it on his back. On the body: "I don't ask about your Liu family, so don't ask me about other things, okay?"

Liu Zihong glanced at his small cloth bag and nodded, "Yes." Although Zhou Ziheng was a casual cultivator who appeared suddenly back then, his abilities should not be underestimated. If it wasn't for his lack of foundation, the Liu family might have chosen Liu Hanxiu married him.Thinking about it this way, it makes sense for Zhou Ling to have some means of self-protection.As for why Zhou Ling knew nothing about metaphysics, Liu Zihong automatically imagined that Liu Hanxiu didn't want to mention the Liu family because of his elopement.Although he guessed half right, when he learned the truth later, Liu Zihong was still speechless for a long time.Of course, this is all for later, and now they still have to attend the opening ceremony of the Art Summit.
