Roster of Demons

"It's best to know, so as not to be deceived when you go out in the future." Gu Zhen didn't blush, her heart didn't beat, and she didn't feel the embarrassment of being exposed. She pretended to concentrate and waited for the call to connect, and slowly walked to the balcony.

What Gu Zhen is looking for is Xiao Xiangzi, a college classmate. His father is one of the persons in charge of the Brilliant Star Integration Center project, so he is definitely the one to look for.

Gu Zhen explained the situation on the phone in a few words, saying that he had a friend from another city who came to travel and wanted to go to the top of Yunchuan to see the city scenery, but the sightseeing floor was not open to the public during the maintenance period, so he wanted to ask his father if he could It can't be convenient.

Without further ado, Xiao Xiangzi agreed directly: "What am I supposed to do? Do I need to find my father? I can do it if I have it. When do your friends want to come? I'll take you up there."

Gu Zhen blinked at the little crow, made an OK gesture, and asked him with his mouth: "When do you want to go?"

The little crow also mouthed back to him: "Just today."

"Is there no problem in the afternoon?" Gu Zhen said on the phone, "My friend is a monkey and has a quick temper."

"No problem." Xiao Xiangzi said, "I'll say hello to the team on duty first."

The two made an appointment to meet in the lobby on the first floor of Bright Star at 02:30 in the afternoon. Gu Zhen glanced at the time and said to Little Crow, "Driving from here, half an hour is just right."

"Then I'll go first." The little crow climbed up the balcony railing as he spoke, "You ask Big Hui to come here together."

"My ancestor, you can just spare me." Gu Zhen quickly grabbed the hem of his shirt, "Will you die if you walk through the front door?"

"There are too many cameras in your community." Little Crow said truthfully, "I can't reveal where I live."

Gu Zhen's heart skipped a beat: "Someone is chasing you?"

"Who dares to chase me down? Are you tired of living?" said the little crow, "Anyway, don't worry about it. I can't fall to my death, so what are you afraid of?"

"Aren't you afraid of being photographed and posted on the Internet when you jump off a building in broad daylight?" Gu Zhen continued to stop, "Nowadays young people are free, maybe there are some people who stare at other people's balconies all day long to catch gossip news. The paparazzi heard Have you ever done it? It’s just for this purpose. It’s just social news if someone falls into a meatloaf and dies; if a person who jumps from a building is photographed and turns into a bird and flies away, do you think it will be on the international channel?”

The little crow has never thought about this: "You guys are really troublesome."

"That's not true, sometimes I feel annoying too. Don't worry about it, just take the elevator downstairs and follow me." Gu Zhen said, "The bright star we went to, the building is full of cameras, you can hide here Same goes there."

"That's definitely different." Little Crow said, "Anyway, leave me alone."

This time, he didn't insist on jumping off the building, but changed into a crow first, and then flew out from the balcony with his wings flapping.He disappeared very quickly, turning into a small black spot on the horizon in an instant.

Taking the empty road is faster than the land road, Gu Zhen didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly set off to keep up.

It's not the morning and evening rush hours, there are not many vehicles on the road, and the drive is smooth all the way.After the car turned into the avenue in front of Bright Star Gate, Gu Zhen looked left and right to pay attention to the side of the road, but he never saw the little crow.He parked the car, and when he closed the door, he heard a whistle behind him. When he turned his head, he almost fell ill from fright.

"My god, can you stop scaring me all the time." Gu Zhen covered his chest, and took two steps back with the big gray on his shoulder.

The little crow was wearing the standard short-sleeved shorts, most of his face was covered with a mask, and his peaked cap was pushed down to the bottom, covering the only pair of exposed eyes under the brim of the hat.His whole body was covered in black water, and he stood quietly behind Gu Zhen like a ghost.

"Why are you still standing there, let's go." The little crow pulled the edge of the mask, glanced around, and said in a low voice, "Be low-key."

"...You are not low-key at all. How about I give you big sunglasses, the standard star go-out configuration, and write four big characters on the forehead, 'Come and watch'. It is not eye-catching at all, really Yes." Gu Zhen said.

"Don't think I can't hear you mocking me." The little crow looked at him from under the brim of his hat.

Gu Zhen was helpless: "Don't you consider taking off your hat and mask?"

"Don't even think about it." The little crow knelt and elbowed him, "Contact your friend quickly."

Gu Zhen had no choice but to contact Xiao Xiangzi first.

According to international practice, pets are not allowed to enter, and Dahui is left in the parking lot, napping on a big tree.Gu Zhen and the little crow entered the Brilliant Star Building, and they waited for a while in the lobby on the first floor. Xiao Xiangzi quickly came down from the office floor and brought the two of them to the top floor - Yunchuan Peak.

After the elevator door opened, the little crow went out first, walked to the side of the glass curtain wall step by step, gently covered the glass with both hands, and looked outside the house seriously.

Gu Zhen and Xiao Xiangzi fell behind.

"Your friend likes this very much." Xiao Xiangzi said, "Most people stand so high, regardless of whether they have acrophobia or not, they are more afraid than excited. He doesn't seem to be afraid at all."

"He's not afraid, I'm afraid." Gu Zhen took a few steps towards the curtain wall, but he didn't dare to go any further when he was far away.This height is much higher than his home.

"Look at your prospects." Xiao Xiangzi squinted at him, as if thinking of something, teasingly pushed Gu Zhen's back, "What kind of friend are you, why haven't I seen him before?"

"Ordinary friends." Gu Zhen glanced outside, and immediately supported the big pillar beside him, "My friends are all over the world, and you still know everyone."

"Ordinary friend, you specially accompany him for a trip?" Xiao Xiangzi nodded, "It's really quite ordinary."

"All of you, you only have sperm in your mind, right?" Gu Zhen gritted his teeth.

Xiao Xiangzi is one of the few people in the university who knows his sexuality, and he always makes jokes about him being a virgin.

"I'm superficial." Xiao Xiangzi admitted his mistake very frankly, and then gave Gu Zhen a "you understand" expression, "I have greeted the duty team, and I won't come up to disturb you later, hello~ okay~ visit."

Gu Zhen: "...you can go now."

After Xiao Xiangzi left Yunchuan Peak, Gu Zhen and Little Crow were left.This kind of perfect scene of courtship, courtship and mating/mating is something that only happens in TV dramas, but it's a pity that none of the two people present have such charming thoughts.

The little crow kept his eyes on the distance. He stood by the glass curtain wall, and after a while, he said to Gu Zhen, "Come here."

"I won't go." Gu Zhen refused without thinking.

The little crow turned around and looked at him: "I'll give you two choices, one, come here by yourself; two, I'll drag you here."

"You don't need to delay!" Gu Zhen quickly made a choice, "I'll go by myself!"

He let go of the big pillars on which he lived, and slowly moved towards the glass curtain wall. With every step he took, the soles of his feet became softer.

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come with you." Gu Zhen muttered, getting closer.When he was still half a meter away from the little crow, the little crow finally lost his patience, grabbed Gu Zhen's wrist, pulled him to his side, and pushed him against the glass curtain wall.

"Oh!" Gu Zhen wailed.

The outermost circle of the floor of Yunchuan Peak is a suspended corridor. Extending from the main building is a glass floor more than one meter wide. It is made of the same material as the curtain wall and has a fully transparent effect. Standing on it is like walking in mid-air.The curtain wall is also designed in a different way. The part close to the floor is not vertical, but has a slope, which is inclined in an inverted triangle. People lying on it will have the illusion of falling down.

Gu Zhen propped his hands on the wall, not daring to look out, and leaned back trying to stand up.

"Stand there and don't move!" The little crow quickly glanced at the diagonally upper corner in Gu Zhen's direction, and said softly, "There is a small camera over there, block it for me."

"What kind of moth are you trying to fix?" Gu Zhen gritted his teeth, "This wall doesn't look strong, I'm afraid it will crack later. If it really cracks, I will definitely grab you before I fall."

"You have a rich imagination." The little crow squatted down, knelt on the ground with one foot, and looked at him from the bottom up. "If it really cracks, you will definitely not be able to hold me. I am faster than you."

Gu Zhen: "...inhuman."

"I'm a monster." The little crow was proud.

He fumbled in the small satchel for a while, and took out a large golden hardcover booklet, spread it out carefully, and placed it on the ground.

The paper quality of the booklet is very good. There is a light streamer turning when it is flipped, and the paper surface is slightly yellowed, giving people a heavy sense of historical precipitation.

At this time, the title page of the booklet was opened, and it was densely covered with gray spots in an orderly manner.The little crow's slender fingers flicked across the page, and where he touched, the gray dots moved restlessly, and when his fingers left, everything returned to its original state.

"What book is this?" Gu Zhen asked.

"The Register of Ten Thousand Monsters." The little crow said, then reached into the small satchel and took out a Langhao pen, a bottle of gold powder, a scarlet stone, and a bottle of light blue "ink".

"...Your little satchel has a lot of capacity." Gu Zhen said.

The small satchel visually judged the size of the man's palm, as far as Gu Zhen had seen it, the little crow had already taken out his mobile phone, handkerchief, mask, book, pen, gold powder, stone, ink, maybe the peaked cap he was wearing was also taken out of it .

"This is called the 'Ruyi Qiankun Bag', and there is a small universe inside, which can contain everything in the world." While speaking, the little crow took out a sharp short knife that was as long as his index finger, "I have to do business now, don't talk to me. "

The little crow threw the vermilion stone into the gold powder bottle, poured a little blue "ink" into it, then put the cap on the bottle, shaking it from side to side.The vermilion stone was smashed into red powder during the shaking, blended with the other two colors, and soon mixed into black.But the little crow didn't stop, and continued to shake. Not long after, the black gradually separated, and was re-divided into gold, red, and blue. They were entangled with each other and independent of each other.

After color matching, the little crow picked up the Langhao pen, dipped it into the three-color ink, and then applied the color evenly on the title page of the book.The three-color ink falls on the paper, but does not follow it, but is like the unpredictable clouds in the sky, turning into a spider for a while, a big bird for a while, and a tiger and a lion for a while.

Curious, Gu Zhen fixed her eyes on the book without blinking, completely forgetting her "fear of heights", as if she came here to watch the little crow paint.

After the little crow finished painting, he put the Langhao brush aside, then clamped the short and sharp index finger knife with the two fingers of his left hand, and stroked lightly on the center of his right hand.

With Gu Zhen's soft breath, bright red blood gushed out, flowed down the palm lines, and dripped on the title page of the book.At the same time, the scratch on Little Crow's palm also healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it disappeared without a trace when he opened and closed his eyes.

After the blood dripping on the page touched the three-color ink, the ink rippled slightly and slowly soaked into the paper. After a while, the paper surface of the book returned to its original yellowish color.

Everything seemed to be back to the original point. Gu Zhen was wondering what the point of the little crow's doing was, when he saw that on the restored title page, the gray dots that were originally orderly were scurrying around irregularly on the paper, moving around After that, stop at their respective positions.

Every time a gray dot stops moving, it will light up, showing a light blue or light yellow shimmer. In an instant, all the gray dots on the entire title page light up. Order in chaos.Looking from a distance, it looks like a magnificent map of the galaxy.

"It's so pretty." Gu Zhen murmured.

"Of course, this is the demon star Luotu, the most beautiful scenery in this city." The little crow said proudly.

As soon as the words fell, he seemed to think of something and suddenly woke up.Opening his eyes wide and looking up at Gu Zhen, he looked at Gu Zhen with surprise on his face: "Can you see this picture?!"
