Mountain and sea essence

Guo Luming's cultivation level is not low, and it is not easy for ordinary people to follow him, but with Fu Li around, the aura of the group was completely concealed, and they easily followed Guo Luming.

Qiao Jun and his party followed Guo Luming for an afternoon, and they almost knew why Guo Luming was here.Guo Luming has a shop on the old street. Someone wanted to rent it from him. He came here to negotiate and sign a contract with the tenant.

The four of Qiao Jun crowded at the entrance of the alley, staring at the small restaurant diagonally opposite.Guo Luming and a middle-aged man were sitting at the door. The two had a simple dinner and were talking about the shop lease contract on the table.

"So Guo Luming came to Xunzhou City just to rent out his shop?" Qiao Jun squatted at the entrance of the alley, leaning against the wall and looking out.

"Before renting out the shop, it sounds normal to go to the old street to check the situation of the shop." Zhuang Shenglan hunched over Qiao Jun and whispered, "But I still think Guo Luming looks a little suspicious."

"Guo Luming... how nice..." Qiao Jun muttered softly.

"Huh? What's so good about him?" Zhuang Shenglan looked down at Qiao Jun.

"He still has a shop after he leaves his job, which can be rented out to make money." Qiao Jun showed envy, "I'm unemployed, so there is no other way to make money."

"We can also buy a few shops and rent them out." Fu Li pulled up Qiao Jun who was squatting on the ground, "Where do you want to buy?"

"I'm not envious that Guo Luming has a shop, I just want to make money." Qiao Jun glanced at Fu Li, "After all, I also have a family. As a responsible man, I must at least be able to earn money to support my family... "

"Fu Li is not short of money, you can let Fu Li support his family." Zhuang Shenglan straightened her waist.

"But I also want to raise Fu Li..." Qiao Jun lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked at Fu Li and said, "Fu Li, I think I can think about it, you told me before, let's form a monster Tiangong ourselves The idea of ​​the bureau. Summon monsters to join the job, and then help solve various incidents caused by monsters."

"Are you planning to compete with the Human Nature Engineering Bureau?" Liang Chen said with a smile.

"That's a good idea, it sounds very interesting." Zhuang Shenglan patted Qiao Jun on the shoulder, "Come on, I'm optimistic about you!"

After a quarter of an hour's appointment, Guo Luming finally negotiated with his tenant. After signing the contract, the two parties got up and walked out of the small restaurant.

"Guo Luming is leaving, what should we do now? Should we continue to follow him, or just break up?" Zhuang Shenglan asked.

"The reason why he appeared in Laojie has already been explained. We are not sure whether he is hiding any bad thoughts, and we don't know when he will expose his intentions. It may be a waste of time to continue following..." Liang Chen said seriously.

"Indeed, Liang Chen and I accepted the mission to investigate the disappearance of Liu Yue and the others, and I don't have much spare time to follow Guo Luming..." Zhuang Shenglan continued, "Although I think he is very suspicious, the most urgent thing is Liu Yue. them."

"Otherwise, Fu Li and I will continue to follow Guo Luming, anyway we have nothing to do..."

Before Qiao Jun finished speaking, Fu Li who took out his mobile phone and glanced at the message interrupted him, "I have something to do here, so I can't continue to follow Guo Luming."

Qiao Jun looked at Fu Li suspiciously.

"Tang Kang said that Zhu Yan has encountered an unknown attack. The situation is a bit weird. I hope I will go and take a look." Fu Li put away his phone and raised his hand to attract a group of black shadows. "This is a shadow demon, a kind of mountain spirit. Can hide in the shadows, his aura is not easy to be found, just let him follow Guo Luming."

Fu Li pointed in the direction of Guo Luming's departure, and Zhaoying Yao chased after him like a ghost, and disappeared into Guo Luming's shadow in a blink of an eye.

After Zhaoyingyao was sent out, the two parties parted ways. Fu Li took Qiao Jun to Baiyun City, while Zhuang Shenglan and Liang Chen stayed in Xunzhou City to investigate clues about the disappearance of Liu Yue and others.

After watching Qiao Jun and Fu Li leave, Zhuang Shenglan also came out of the alley, and Liang Chen quickly followed him, walking beside him.

"Let's go have dinner first, and then go to explore the surrounding area of ​​the old street." Zhuang Shenglan glanced at the time on the phone, and made arrangements for the next time.

"Listen to you." After Liang Chen finished speaking, he looked sideways at Zhuang Shenglan and walked for a while, then called him again, "Zhuang Shenglan..."

"Why?" Zhuang Shenglan turned to meet Liang Chen's gaze.

"I want to raise you too." Liang Chen whispered.

Zhuang Shenglan was dazed, almost captivated by the gentleness in Liang Chen's eyes, she came back to her senses after being startled, and hummed, "Let me be on top, not to mention asking you to support me, I can support you. "

After Zhuang Shenglan finished speaking, she speeded up and walked forward quickly.

Liang Chen smiled helplessly, and followed Zhuang Shenglan's footsteps.

Fu Li and Qiao Jun walked on the wind, and within half an hour they arrived at the gate of Tang Kang's private restaurant in Baiyun City.

The signboard of Tang Kang's private restaurant was newly replaced, and it was different from what Qiao Jun saw when he came here before.Qiao Jun looked up at the door plaque, and just read it in his mind, when he saw Tang Kang's chubby figure walking out of the store out of the corner of his eye.

The Wugu Fengdeng private kitchen restaurant was still in business, Tang Kang explained a few words to the foreman in the lobby, and then took Fu Li and Qiao Jun to the box on the second floor.

In the box, apart from the monster Zhu Yan who was attacked as mentioned in Tang Kang's message, there was also Bai Ze.Monsters are not human beings, there are no special circumstances, and they don't pay much attention to etiquette.Seeing Fu Li enter the door, the two of them briefly saluted and walked to the round table in the center of the box together.Tang Kang closed the door and led Fu Li and Qiao Jun to the round table.

Nothing was placed on the round table, but a cylindrical object wrapped in black cloth was placed.Qiao Jun sniffed and sniffed, feeling a faint smell of blood.

Tang Kang didn't talk nonsense, and directly opened the black cloth of the objects on the table.It was a hand connected to an arm. The outline looked like a human being, with five normal fingers, but the back of the hand was covered with blue scales, and the nails were also sharp and sharp, unlike what humans could have.

"Is this... the hand of a monster?" Qiao Jun looked at the hand resting on the spread black cloth, and asked hesitantly.This hand looked like a monster's hand, but after the black cloth was opened, the smell of blood became clearer. The blood smelled like monster's, human's, or both .

"This is the hand of the person who attacked me. I was suddenly attacked by him while walking on the road, and I broke off one hand and ran away." Zhu Yan said, "The person who attacked me feels like a human being from the breath. Practitioner, but there is a monster on his body, and the hand that I severed looks like this, I don't know what it is."

"I've never seen this kind of creature that looks like a human and also looks like a monster." Bai Ze said.

"Looks like a human and a monster... Where have I heard similar words?" Qiao Jun poked the hand on the table, feeling cold and stiff, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Fu Li, " By the way! At Liu Yue's mission site today, in the shop whose roof was lifted, Zhuang Shenglan mentioned that there was a ghost-like aura detected there!"

"Zhuang Shenglan did mention it." Fu Li nodded, "What Liu Yue and the others encountered may be the same thing that attacked Zhu Yan."

"But what exactly is this?" Tang Kang scratched his head.

Qiao Jun stared at the severed hand for a moment, then patted the table and said, "I see! Could this be the legendary half-demon?"
