Xu Mu's black eyes were full of doubts, he held the shoebox and thought about it for two seconds, looked at Feng Yuan, and answered tentatively, "It's from the bank?"

Feng Yuan: ……………

The brain nerves of this child must be thicker than a rolling pin.

"What else?" Feng Yuan put his hand on the wardrobe behind Xu Mu, trapping him between himself and the wardrobe, his voice was so gloomy that it seemed to drip water.

The distance between the two was less than [-] centimeters, and Feng Yuan could kiss the corner of Xu Mu's lips with his head tilted, feeling full of oppression.

Xu Mu was overwhelmed by Feng Yuan's aura, the air around him was like frozen ice, he couldn't help holding his breath, his back was pressed against the closet door, the hairs on the back of his neck were covered with hedgehogs Standing upright like this, he tried hard to think about various possibilities, and his brain was running as fast as burning.

It's a pity that he has been tricked too many times. His brain is like a wild horse, uncontrollably riding in the wrong direction and galloping away, "Wait, is this a normal question or a brain teaser?"

I think you just can't turn the corner!

Feng Yuan shook his head helplessly, his teeth itching with hatred, stretched out two fingers with his right hand and pinched Xu Mu's cheek vigorously, and paused every word, "Normal, normal, it can't be normal anymore!"

normal?

The pain that almost made people cry finally brought someone's IQ to the line. Xu Mu looked at Feng Yuan begging for mercy with the box on his feet, and a series of answers came out of his mouth, "It hurts...it hurts, brother? Good friend ?companion?"

After the correct answer was released, Xu Mu's animal-like eyes pleased Feng Yuan. He let go of his hand mercifully, and shook the phone at Xu Mu, with an inexplicable smug smile on his lips, "You have seen it now."

Xu Mu: ……………

No!Not what I thought it meant?

The courier boy covered his cheek with someone's fingerprints on it and rubbed it desperately, blinking his eyes in a daze, his heart beating wildly like a drum in his chest.

Does the male god like to play tricks, or is he really making an awkward confession?

The only person who can control the other party's account should be someone who is as close as a partner.However, if they are really together after 12 years, Feng Yuan should not have any other thoughts about himself now, otherwise why did it take so long?

Xu Mu felt two voices in his head one after another, arguing non-stop, his heart was in a mess, and he couldn't tell the difference more and more.

Feng Yuan's cell phone rang just at this time, and two big characters popped up on the screen facing Xu Mu, [Xiaoji].

Glancing at the phone, Feng Yuan's face moved slightly, motioning for Xu Mu to wait, then turned around and walked quickly to the window to answer the phone, his voice also kept low.

Xiao Ji?Who is Xiaoji?

It's a nickname, right?

Xu Mu looked at Feng Yuan's back inexplicably, and scratched the back of his neck boredly. Forget it, let's not worry about Feng Yuan's thoughts. No matter what the male god means now, it will be the same in the end anyway.He might as well take advantage of this time to put his private money back, and he put the broken blood amber into his backpack by the way, planning to go to Qingping Lane tomorrow to ask if he can sell some money.

When he re-entered the master bedroom, he heard Feng Yuan's last words before hanging up the phone, "Well, I see, I will take care of it."

"Are you going out tonight?"

"I won't go out. I'll just go to the study to help someone change a picture later, at most two or three hours." Feng Yuan responded casually, "You go eat something, take a shower, and sleep in the master bedroom tonight. Go sleep on the couch."

"No, I'm ready." Xu Mu shook his head hastily, Feng Yuan has to go to work tomorrow, how could a dove occupy a magpie's nest and let him sleep on the sofa.

"You are still unstable, and you need a good rest. If you are told to sleep, you can sleep. Don't be naughty." Feng Yuan assumed the majesty of a guardian.

"... Otherwise, sleep in the master bedroom tonight?" Xu Mu held back for a long time before making another suggestion.

"Are you inviting me to share the bed?" Feng Yuan raised his eyes slightly and looked at him with a half-smile.

Xu Mu: ……………

Why is the topic of this building turned crooked again?

Both of them had a poor appetite, and after eating something hastily, Feng Yuan went to the study to work overtime, and Xu Mu worked hard to practice Taoism in the master bedroom holding Shen Liang's two booklets.After training and exploring the past few days, his breathing process has become relatively smooth.

Recalling what Fu Zhu had mentioned, lighting ambergris crystals during cultivation can help cultivation with twice the result with half the effort, so he purposely dug out that amber-like transparent light golden yellow crystal and wanted to cut a piece.

Unexpectedly, that thing looks like crystal, but its hardness is like diamond.

Xu Mu changed from a ten-centimeter-long fruit knife all the way to a kitchen knife, cutting, scraping, and chopping all the way. The movement was as loud as a running Tyrannosaurus Rex in the room. The noise was full of noise, but the ambergris crystal Except for a few scratches that are almost invisible, it is basically motionless.

The rookie Taoist looked at the pale golden crystal in frustration, is it a vajra possessed or has he practiced the iron cloth shirt covered with golden bells?It's unscientific!

Fu Zhu was disturbed by the clanging sound and couldn't sleep well, so he ran to the kitchen with his tail cocked, and saw Xu Mu was about to use the bone chopping knife.

【What are you doing? 】

"Cut it open." Isn't this obvious, Xu Mu squinted at the thing on the cutting board with a bone cutter in his hand.

[As far as I know, cutting ambergris should be done with a wooden knife wiped with salt water. Husband moved his ears, looked at Xu Mu who had no "common sense" contemptuously, and the gold ring with three glass-colored thin slices on his neck shook silently twice.

Xu Mu: ……………

Why didn't you say something so important earlier!

There was no wooden knife at home, so Xu Mu made do with a toothpick dipped in salt water to cut the ambergris crystals. The light golden crystals on the tip of the toothpick were like tofu brains, and a small corner was easily scratched off.

Really so easy to use?

Xu Mu stared at the broken piece the size of a soybean grain. Is this the legendary one-thing drop-one-thing?

Returning to the master bedroom with the ambergris crystal that had been cut through so much painstaking efforts, Xu Mu looked at the door of the guest bedroom and stuck out his tongue. Brother Feng Yuan didn't come out to scold anyone, so that means the movement of cutting things just now didn't disturb him, right?

Xu Mu sat cross-legged on the bed and began to breath out. The lit ambergris gave off a faint herbal fragrance, just like the phytoncine in the forest, which made people feel comfortable.

Fu Zhu also regained his energy, with his glazed eyes wide open, he squatted on the bedside table and guarded the ambergris crystal tightly, raising his head from time to time to take a sip, rubbing the aura with enjoyment on his face.

I don't know if it was a mental effect, but after half an hour, Xu Mu felt a warm feeling rising from his dantian, which was very similar to the sense of integration mentioned in the manuscript.A round of breathing can achieve a sense of fusion, which is the most perfect state.

Xu Mu, who finished breathing, not only did not feel tired, but was full of vitality.He looked at his phone, it was only 08:30, it was still early, so he decided to study the talisman again, in case of emergency.

Talisman is divided into elementary, intermediate, and advanced levels. Xu Mu is self-aware, so he went straight to the most basic primary chapter, wanting to start with a few more practical talismans.

Apart from the talisman sparrow technique of finding people, Xu Mu thinks that the body fixation technique and the flying leaf technique are also good.

As the name suggests, the immobilization technique is the action of using Taoist talismans to freeze the opponent. Of course, the immobilization technique at the basic level only has an effect of about two breaths.

The Flying Leaf Technique can hide one's breath within the time of a cup of tea. Xu Mu felt that the monsters he had seen seemed to be very sensitive to smells, and most of them even identified people's identities through smells, not appearances.Therefore, if you can cover your breath for a short time, you may be able to avoid some dangers in the future.

Besides, those guys in Qingping Lane blurted out "it smells good" with a greedy face at every turn. What does it mean that it smells good?It sounds like I'm a little bit before the plate, and I won't let them smell it after I learn the Flying Leaf Technique!

Xu Mu took Feng Yuan's pencil and began to copy the few Taoist talismans seriously. He planned to practice with cinnabar and yellow paper after he was proficient in drawing the talisman samples.

When he got up to take a shower when his wrist was sore, Feng Yuan in the guest room was still silent, and he didn't seem to come out to use the bathroom for nearly two hours.

Xu Mu moved his cervical spine and shoulders and looked at the door sympathetically. Brother Feng Yuan's work is simply too hard!

In the study room separated by a door, the light from the monitor sprinkled on the armchair and the floor, and there was no one in the room.

Twenty kilometers away, on the roof of an unfinished building, Feng Yuan's palm flickered with a blue whip-shaped electric light, and he looked at the man leaning against the corner of the wall so hard that he couldn't straighten up his back, "Xiao Jiao, within the Three Realms!" , as long as you run a few laps, it is impossible to escape from my grasp."

"My lord, I was wrong, my lord!" At the end of the mountain, with nowhere to escape, the man looked ashamed, and said "Plop!" to Feng Yuan, kneeling on the ground, "I was only instructed by the hideous, to vent my anger for him, please. Please let me go."

He was originally a ferocious beast with fierce eyebrows, and his human form also had double-hanging eyebrows, which made him seem to have a sense of ferocity with raised eyebrows, and his sincerity in begging for mercy was erased a lot.He had heard before that the new boss of the Human World Public Security Bureau is even more powerful than the previous one, unfathomable, and probably of the mysterious level.According to the level he showed just now, I'm afraid it needs to be higher.

"Exit gas? How dare you say that you just want to vent your anger by setting up a mountain-piercing soul-removing array?" Feng Yuan snorted coldly, "It was our Public Security Management Committee who drove the five-tailed monster back, and it was the one who demolished his house. Me, what do you mean by venting your anger on a mortal?"

The more Feng Yuan spoke, the more angry he became, a look of ruthlessness rose between his brows, and the light in his palms swelled, just one step away, Xu Mu might never come back.

"My lord, I didn't dare to go against you with my little guts. It's because I said that as long as I let that mortal live in peace, he will be so angry." The man said with a bitter face.

"Don't dare? You have lived in the human world for at least a hundred years, and you won't tell me that you don't know that the number one crime here is killing mortals, right?"

"I'm wronged, my lord, I'm really wronged." The man lay down, trembling, kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Although I'm good at seducing people, I only used that one because it's easy to hurt people's lives directly." I didn’t even know that it was a mountain-piercing soul-absorbing formation, let alone a soul-refining formation! Otherwise, why bother setting up the formation, it’s better to shoot it directly! The formation was given to me by a passing Taoist. He said that this formation The law is easy to learn, and it only teaches people a lesson, it won’t hurt people’s lives, it’s just small punishments and big warnings. I just brought it..."

"Taoist? What kind of Taoist?" Feng Yuan frowned and looked at Jiao Jiao lying on the ground.

According to Shen Liang's explanation that day, ordinary people may not be able to exert such power with this formation. Only a monster like Jiao Jiao who is good at seductiveness can use this formation seamlessly. Without realizing it, Xu Mu's Heavenly Soul was taken away and thrown into the formation.Could it be that someone took advantage of it on purpose?

"The little one doesn't know, the young one really doesn't know. When I was walking on the road a few days ago, a nagging man suddenly stopped me. He called himself a Taoist priest, and said that I have a stagnant air between my eyebrows. It turns out that he has a set of formations, which is just for me to use. At that time, I thought he was one of those charlatans who swindled money, with blind eyes, and the sales were all sold to me, a monster, so I just stuffed the two pieces of paper he handed over perfunctorily. In my pocket. After the accident happened, I remembered it, found those two pieces of paper, and arranged them according to the method written on the paper..." Under Feng Yuan's cold, knife-like gaze, the man's voice became more and more serious. The smaller it is, in the end, it's as low as a mosquito, and it's basically inaudible.He used the formation to hide himself as much as possible, so as not to be easily suspected. He never expected that he would be directly targeted by the Human World Security Bureau.

If what Jiao Jiao said was true, and there really was such a Taoist priest, how did he know that Xu Mu would be his target later on?Could it be the line of Taoism that is good at divination?

It is impossible to judge whether the formation that appeared hundreds of years ago was given to Qiao Jiao by someone else, or he learned it from some ancient book.

"What does he look like?"

Jiao Jiao frowned, and looked up at Feng Yuan, "I didn't pay attention to his appearance, I just remembered that he smelled like bloody incense ash, which was not very pleasant."

"Even according to what you said, if you intentionally hurt mortals, according to the rules of the human world, it is enough to send you back to the demon world, and you will not be allowed to set foot in the human world for a hundred years. Do you have any objections?" Feng Yuan looked at him coldly.

"No, no. Thank you, sir, for not killing me." Qiao Qiao breathed a sigh of relief quietly, secretly rejoicing that it would be good if he didn't smoke his soul. A hundred years is very short, and it will pass after a few sleeps. At that time, he can come back to the world Happy.

"Very good." Feng Yuan raised his eyebrows and made a seal with his fingers, and the blue whip-like lightning wrapped around Yu Jiao's body like a rope, tightening it tighter, forcing him to lie down on the ground and reveal his original shape.

Jiao Jiao looked up at the sky, roared, and the golden nine characters on his right front paw shattered into several pieces and scattered with the wind.

Feng Yuan opened the gate of the boundary, and threw the Jiao Jiao in its original form into it.

A few seconds later, the blue electric light disappeared from the Jiao Jiao, and it spread its four claws and ran wildly. It's good that it can come back safe and sound, and go to find it first.

Feng Yuan looked at its back with a cold eye, and stepped into the gate of the demon world.

Jiao Jiao, who was running wildly, stopped her four paws abruptly, looked at Feng Yuan standing in front of her in surprise, instinctively felt that something was wrong, she stepped back, and called tentatively, "My lord?"

Feng Yuan stared coldly at Xiao Jiao in front of him, and clacked his hands, "We've finished talking about business matters, and now let's talk about personal enmity, and we'll fight in the fairest way in the demon world." how?"

Jiao: ……………

The ninth level is against the ground level, a dead end, how can it be fair! ! !

When Feng Yuan pushed open the door of the guest room, the room was already quiet.

In the master bedroom, Xu Mu was lying on the left side of the big bed hugging the quilt, sleeping very soundly.On the right side of the bed, Feng Yuan kept a desk lamp, and the orange light softly illuminated the half that belonged to Feng Yuan.

Sensing his breath, Fu Zhu, who was coiled around Xu Mu's head, opened his eyes and flicked his tail courteously.

Feng Yuan put his index finger on his lips, and made a silent gesture towards it.He frowned and sniffed his arm, turned around and went to the bathroom to take a shower. The smell of the demon world was too bad, so he had to wash it off quickly.

Drying his hair and lying on the bed, just as Feng Yuan was about to turn off the desk lamp, the person on the left turned over and rolled beside him with a murmur.Feng Yuan embraced him unceremoniously, and patted his face lightly. It is the ninth miracle in the world that you have been so hardworking and have not fallen to the ground while sleeping on the sofa for more than a week.

Xu Mu wrinkled his nose, showing no sign of waking up.The dizzy yellow light engulfed his eyebrows and eyes like ink paintings, suffocating like a dream.

Feng Yuan couldn't help lowering her head, and kissed the corner of his lips, tossing and turning, before reluctantly leaving.

Fu Zhu next to him widened his eyes as if frightened, and stood up from the bed with a gulp, looked at Feng Yuan, and then at Xu Mu.

Feng Yuan squinted at it, "If you dare to tell him, I'll make you into a hot pot."

The little white cat immediately returned to its original position and covered its eyes with its fluffy tail. It was very sensible to say that I didn't see anything!

When Xu Mu woke up in the morning, he found that he was hugged in Feng Yuan's arms again like a pillow, and after he tried to move a few times, the hand around his waist was tightened even more.

The courier brother helplessly covered his forehead, and turned to look at someone who was sleeping soundly. It seemed that he was going to be imprisoned again until the alarm clock rang.

I didn't go to work yesterday, and I don't know how the proprietress arranged the courier packages in his area in the end, asking Brother Zhong and the others to send more than [-] packages each?Or is the boss himself acting on his behalf?

Xu Mu had been guessing about this on the way to work, but when he arrived at the courier point, he realized that the proprietress' solution was much simpler and ruder. Yesterday's [-] pieces of goods that belonged to him were piled on the ground untouched.

Knowing that his salary hadn't disappeared, Xu Mule couldn't see his fangs. For the first time, he rushed into the convenience store next to the delivery point and bought a bottle of lactic acid drink that the proprietress liked most.

The proprietress explained plainly, "It's not specially reserved for you. It just so happens that they had a lot of couriers yesterday, and none of them are willing to send them."

Xu Mu scratched his ear, it's the same anyway, as long as the money is his own in the end.

Including the newly distributed goods in the morning, Xu Mu will deliver 220 pieces today.

The back of the mini tricycle is piled high, and there are two large bags of small items hanging on both sides of the handlebars, otherwise it would not be able to fit so many things.

I guess I have to work overtime today, Xu Mu looked at the pile of goods, and couldn't help but smile when he thought of today's salary.

"The one who is so happy working overtime is you." Brother Zhong, who was on the same road, shook his head and looked at him with a smile.

"It's good to get paid for overtime work." Xu Muben expressed his opinion in satisfaction.

"I heard that you were sick yesterday? Let's take it easy today. If you really can't, save some and send it tomorrow, or give me a call." Brother Zhong suggested.

"It's alright, I was alive and well last night." Xu Mu patted his chest, expressing that he was completely fine.

Xu Mu was so busy all day that he even settled for lunch by stuffing three steamed buns while pedaling three wheels.It was dinner time in a blink of an eye, and he arrived at Qingping Lane, the last stop of the day's delivery.

In addition to Hanhaitang, Sifang Teahouse and Ruyifang, there are also Buweizhai at No. 46 Qingping Lane.

number 46?

Isn't number 46 Zhu Guangge?

Xu Mu looked at the list strangely, besides, Zhu Guang Pavilion has been turned into ruins?The recipient's name is Gouyan, is it Gouzheng's brother?

When he went to Hanhaitang to deliver the goods, he asked the owner of Hanhaitang, an otaku who was an online shopper and game fanatic, about the price of the blood amber.The otaku held a magnifying glass and looked at the two fragments decently for a few minutes, then gave Xu Mu a price of 3000 yuan.

The things I picked up in vain are worth 3000 yuan, and the courier brother is very happy.Xu Mu was not in a hurry to sell this time, and decided to ask a few more.After watching it a few times, he also discovered that antiques are bought at a low price and sold at a high price. The value of this thing must be more than 3000 yuan, so an otaku would be willing to pay 3000 yuan.

At the location of No. 46, a brand-new pavement rises from the ground, with glazed tiles and vermilion eaves, which is even more beautiful than the original Zhuguang Pavilion.

If he hadn't seen the ruins with his own eyes, Xu Mu would never have believed that the shop was rebuilt within two or three days.

Building a house is not like blowing up balloons. How could it be so fast?

Unless...it wasn't done by humans at all.

That is the monster?

Xu Mu stood hesitantly at the door, and carefully knocked on the brand new vermilion lacquer shop door, "Is Mr. Dog Yan there? I have your courier."

"Wait a moment." A friendly voice came from inside the door, accompanied by the sound of slow footsteps.

I saw an artist-like man with half-length yellow hair coming out of the inner hall. No, it should be said that he was walking backwards, with his back to the door, walking towards Xu Mu strangely in a backward posture all the way.

Xu Mu: ……………

Fuck, it really is another weird thing!

"...Your courier, please sign for it." Xu Mu looked at the man with his back to him, took a deep breath for two seconds to calm himself down, and then wanted to hand him the pen.The hand he stretched out was a little hesitant, he didn't know whether to hand it to the front of the man, or just put it behind his back.

But the man took Xu Mu's pen accurately as if he had eyes behind his back.Finally turned around, bowed his head towards Xu Mu and signed his name stroke by stroke.Seeing the front face, Xu Mu felt that this Quan Quan must not be a brother, and the two had no similarities in appearance at all.It's just that this person has a pair of sunglasses on his nose, and he looks a bit like... blind?

"Thank you, let's have a cup of tea, your lips are so dry and cracked." The man said in a gentle tone, groping for a teapot from the counter and pouring tea for Xu Mu.

"No need, I still have two couriers to deliver." Xu Muwan said that he wanted to decline, but unconsciously pursed the corners of his lips. He was so busy delivering the goods today that he didn't even have time to drink his saliva.

After the man finished pouring the tea, he put his nails in it, rinsed them, and handed them to Xu Mu.

Xu Mu: ……………

Without this, are you going to invite me and your nail polish remover?
