Demon's Self-cultivation

Little Demon can't understand the sweet and warm soft emotions that people who love each other just stay together when they are in love. Although he used to get along with his host holding a book in harmony, but after his true face was exposed, He couldn't find the thick-skinned (?) calmness when facing the host.

Being forced to stay with the host on the first day, Qiao Qiao could be said to be sitting on pins and needles, constantly trying to think about what to say and do in order to avoid making the host feel unhappy and continue to lower her favorability in the host's mind.As for Mandel, who was leisurely reclining on the sofa and sipping afternoon tea, he didn't have such troubles.Even, admiring Qiao Qiao's fidgeting appearance, his mood improved a lot, and he let the other party rack his brains to please him, without any intention of comforting him.

——Yes, he likes to see Qiao Qiao so cautiously fawning over him.As a "victim", Mandel felt that he deserved such treatment.

After the "victim" drank a cup of tea and ate three pieces of refreshments, Qiao Qiao's eyes finally lit up, and he thought of an option that could not only pass the time, but also make his host happy.

He straightened up suddenly, and happily proposed: "Brother Mandel, let me teach you how to use mental power!"

Mandel stopped drinking tea, looked sideways at Qiao Qiao, his eyes were slightly complicated: "Do you really want to teach me?"

"Yes, yes! Didn't I say that before?" Qiao Qiao nodded repeatedly.

Mandel put down his teacup, and curled his mouth: "I thought that your words were just to make me happy, let me know that you are still valuable, and thus give you a lighter punishment."

Qiao Qiao raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction. Just as she was about to refute, she suddenly remembered her original intention for saying that sentence...it seems to be true, right?

The little devil who has been thoroughly seen by his host: "...QAQ"

Realizing that the topic just started was slipping towards the edge of danger again, Qiaoqiao tried hard to save it, and tried to fool it with a thick skin: "Anyway, I really really want to teach you this time! Brother Mandel Do you want to learn~"

If it was an ordinary adult boy acting like a baby, the scene would probably make people want to complain, but if it was placed on Qiao Qiao, who was at the peak of his appearance, it could still make people smile knowingly and feel comfortable all over.

Mandel's expression also softened, but he still didn't intend to let him go: "You have to think about it. How to control your mental power is the only trump card for you that can deal with me. If you give up this last hole card , in the future, if you want to escape from me or deceive me again, it will be even more difficult."

Listening to Mandel's words, Jojo pursed her lips hard, feeling a sense of unhappiness and grievance suddenly in her heart.

Little Demon has a bad temper, and he has always been favored by everyone. From birth to now, Mandel is the only one who can make him willingly endure and please.

Because he was the first to do something sorry for Mandel, Qiaoqiao has been cautious and thoughtful in the past few months. No matter how venomous Mandel was, he accepted it silently, in order to want to be with himself. The favorite host reconciled.He was apprehensive in front of the host. Firstly, he was really guilty when he met Mandel, and secondly, he knew that the other party liked to see his frightened appearance—in order to please the host, Xiao Xiaomo took the initiative to step on himself. into the mud, making the other party laugh with a deadpan face.

Qiaoqiao knew that he had done wrong and hurt Mandel's heart, and he was willing to accept the punishment from the other party.But he held his own dark little heart and worked hard for months to please the other party and make up for the other party, but what he got was still the other party's cynicism. This kind of cold feeling is really uncomfortable.

The naturally reckless and cautious demon tasted bitterness and grievance for the first time. Not only did he feel that he had fed his blood to the dog, but he even began to doubt whether it was really meaningful for him to do so.

——The inner demon is the inner demon. Jojo never thinks about how Mandel spent the past eight years, nor does he feel the world collapsed after the other party learned the truth.He only knew that he had endured it for too long, and he was a little unhappy after having endured it.

The dark eyes dimmed, and the smile that always hung on his face disappeared. Qiaoqiao lowered his eyes and exposed his unpleasant emotions to Mandel for the first time: "Anyway, I never thought about it that way. You believe it or not!"

——A natural demon is never an existence that wrongs oneself and perfects others.Even their sincerity is extremely short, fleeting and easy to get bored, so they are extremely precious and rare.

Qiaoqiao can persist for several months under Mandel's indifference, which can already be regarded as the "true love" among the demons.

With a bad tone, Qiaoqiao felt that the accumulated resentment in his chest dissipated a lot, and then began to worry about whether what he said would make Mandel even more dissatisfied.

Not daring to look at Mandel, and being stubborn and unwilling to take back these words brazenly, Qiaoqiao lowered his head and buttoned the sofa under his buttocks, feeling agitated in his heart.

——Then, he felt a warm palm pressing down on his head, and rubbed it gently with force.

Raising his head in a daze, Qiao Qiao found that his host did not have a calm and angry face as he thought, but instead raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a sincere and happy smile.

"Okay, I was wrong this time." Looking into Jojo's confused eyes, Mandel chuckled, "I believe you."

Be careful: "………………????"

"Although I like the way you carefully curry favor with me... But the feeling of you being outspoken to me and showing your true emotions to me like just now seems to be good." Mandel squinted his eyes slightly, slipped his palm, and squeezed Jojo Soft cheeks.

Qiao Qiao, whose pretty face was deformed by pinching: "……………………?????"

——The preferences of my own host... It's really weird.

Demonic emotions always come and go quickly.The grievance that the little devil had just surged quickly dissipated in Mandel's rare tenderness. He tapped the ground with his toes, and struggled awkwardly to break free. Mandel pinched his fingertips and covered his slightly hot cheeks: "Then you Do you want to learn?"

"Learn, as long as you are willing to teach me, of course I want to learn." Mandel withdrew his hand with a smile and nodded calmly.

After receiving Mandel's response, Jojo immediately put the redundant emotions behind her, sorted out her thoughts a little, and then began to tell her host how to use mental power.

It's a pity that spiritual power is invisible and qualityless, and it is really a very tricky thing to control them finely and accurately - if it weren't for this, those high-end laboratories that study spiritual power would not have been working hard for decades, but There were few results.

Even if Mandel "was a blessing in disguise" and unintentionally learned how to release his mental power under stimulation, it was still extremely difficult to further control it.

Jojo tried hard to explain to Mandel, almost speaking dryly, and Mandel also listened carefully and kept trying, but the results had little effect.

Scratching her hair, Jojo was a little discouraged.Fortunately, Mandel, who was struggling to learn something for the first time, was in a good mood.

Temporarily stopping the practice, to take a little rest for his aching head, Mandel raised his hand and poured himself a cup of tea, chatting casually: "Speaking of which, how did you learn how to use mental power?"

"Me?" Qiao Qiao froze for a moment, "I...was born with it?"

Just like human beings are born to know how to manipulate their bodies, even without the guidance of their parents, they can still feel their way around, the inner demon has no body, so the mental power, or the consciousness of the inner demon, is equivalent to that of the physical body. to humans.

Since the body is a mass of consciousness, manipulating the consciousness is as natural as eating, drinking and even breathing for the inner demon.Even a high-level cultivator of human beings, the use of divine consciousness is definitely not as diverse as the heart demon's methods, such as using his arms and fingers.

It is precisely because of this innate instinct that Jojo doesn't know how to teach a human being who has never used spiritual power. No matter how hard he tries to describe it, it is too ethereal and abstract for human understanding.

——It’s like fish can’t teach people to swim, birds can’t teach people to fly, cats can’t teach people to jump off buildings.Since the components are different, there is no point in comparing them.

After being asked about this topic, Qiao Qiao obviously also realized the problem, and quickly changed the way of teaching.

——Since words are not good enough, then... let's teach by example!

When Mandel had almost rested, Qiaoqiao immediately proposed the teaching method of spiritual contact.

Mandel showed a curious expression, and obediently released his spiritual power from his body, while Qiaoqiao showed a wisp of spiritual power, and touched it cautiously.Suddenly, both of them couldn't help shaking.

This is the second time that Qiao Qiao has contacted another person's spiritual power without any malice - the first person was his "father" Kang Ning.

Kang Ning's spiritual power is from the same source as Jojo's. When the two people's spiritual power comes into contact, they feel as familiar and natural as if the left hand is holding the right hand, while Mandel's spiritual power has nothing to do with Jojo.

Touching Mandel's spiritual power, Qiaoqiao felt as if he was holding another person's hand, or the most intimate interlocking fingers.Even if Mandel and Mandel have reached home base and have done everything that should be done and should not be done, the direct contact of spiritual power and the fusion of the body are two completely different intimacy.

Jojo didn't have any defenses against Mandel, and Mandel did the same to him.At the moment when their spiritual powers collided, they both felt the undisguised true emotions transmitted from each other.

Mandel felt Qiao Qiao's intimacy and dependence on him, and Qiao Qiao also felt the complex entanglement of his host, as well as the nostalgia that still hasn't faded in the slightest.The eyes of black and dark gray meet, and the hearts of the two people are under the influence of each other's emotions, beating in sympathy, and even the temperature of the body begins to rise inexplicably.

Sensitively realizing that something was wrong, Jojo withdrew his mental power with a "whoosh", but unexpectedly, Mandel's mental power did not want it to leave, and subconsciously chased after him, trying hard to wrap, wrap, and imprison him .

As a master of mental power, Qiao Qiao's mental power is so cunning and flexible, it is naturally impossible for Mandel to catch him.

After getting rid of the "strange" "heartbeat" just now, Jojo's wicked taste came up.Not only did he not take back his spiritual power into his body, but he started to provoke the spiritual power of his host, teasing and running away, and turned back to continue teasing after a few steps, happily teasing another spirit that was much clumsier Looking at it triumphantly, it clearly wants to catch itself, but it has nothing to do with itself.

I don't know if the training method of "hanging a carrot" is really effective, or whether Mandel's obsession with Jojo is clearly reflected in his spiritual power, making it explode with unlimited potential.Compared with the previous inability to direct his own mental power no matter what, Mandel can now control it to chase after Jojo, which should be regarded as a huge leap.

——Of course, no matter how gratifying Mandel's progress is, he is still far from Jojo's opponent.

Mandel's eyes darkened as he was angered by Qiao Qiao's death.He looked at the handsome young man sitting in front of him, who had lost his standard because of having fun, and didn't notice the danger approaching at all, and the corner of his mouth hooked viciously.

So, in the next second, Qiao Qiao felt a black shadow flash in front of him, and he was stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he found that he had been pressed on the sofa by Mandel.

"I've caught you~" Covering Jojo under him, Mandel narrowed his eyes contentedly, buried his head and bit his neck.

Jojo, who was extremely happy and sad: "……………………(⊙﹏⊙)"

——Playing, playing tricks! QQ

Immediately fell from the sky into the ground, the little devil huddled under his host and shivered, wishing to turn back time immediately and crush himself to death just now.

——Although in the past few months, his host has only threatened with that kind of thing, and never really put it into action, but how can he forget what kind of "ruthless character" the other party is, and get carried away with complacency? !

Blinking her eyes, Qiao Qiao's eyes shone brightly, trying to use her eyes to beg her host to show mercy to her.

When Mandel received his pleading gaze, he hesitated for a moment, finally gritted his teeth, turned over and sat up.

Qiao Qiao heaved a sigh of relief, and moved away from his host by rolling and crawling. Only then did he recover from shock, and secretly vowed that he would never use his mental power to tease the other party again—even if it was just "simple teaching". up!

Glancing at the time, he found that the two hours had passed smoothly. Qiao Qiao seemed to be pardoned, so he found an excuse and fled in a hurry.

Mandel watched the door being opened and closed, calmed down for a moment, raised his hand and rubbed the space between his brows.

——It seems that Qiao Qiao was really terrified by the previous two experiences.And if he resists this kind of thing so much, if he continues to use force blindly, it will probably be difficult to make the other party feel truly happy.

——So, he must find a way to completely solve the shadow in this little guy's heart...
