"...What am I doing here?"

In the deadlocked atmosphere, Lin Su suddenly laughed at himself and let go of his chopsticks.

But because of the fight between the two just now, the piece of meat had completely stuck to the iron plate and was burnt.

Si Li snorted, picked another piece and put it in Su Li's bowl.But the little fox just stared at Lin Su who was concentrating on flipping the meat, which made the young man grit his teeth secretly.

It's a good move to retreat!

This guy is really not simple, Si Li thought solemnly.

"Xiao Li," he said aloud, "Actually, I came here today to find you for something."

The little fox still had meat in his mouth, seeing his serious expression, he couldn't help but lift up his spirits a little.

"what's up?"

"I told you yesterday that I hope you can go back to Su Minshan with me—"

"Don't mention this matter again." Su Li immediately interrupted him, "I am very happy with my colleagues in the Supervision and Management Bureau, and I will definitely not go back."

"Listen to what I have to say," Si Li said patiently, "What I want to say is that I want to take back what I said before. Xiao Li, whether you stay in Nancheng or go to other places, during this period, Don't even get close to the land around Su Minshan."

"……why?"

"Actually, before I went down the mountain with Elder Snake, I clearly felt that the atmosphere on the mountain is very strange." He said, "At first, in the middle of the night, the lonely little monsters would disappear inexplicably. In the past few years, it has become more and more violent, causing the monsters on the mountain to panic. But on a certain day half a year ago, most of these missing little monsters returned, but they all lost their memory."

The little fox couldn't help asking: "Who saved them?"

"No one knows," Si Li shook his head, "but the first person to find them was a doorman named Sijiao under my command. Although he was my doorman, it was actually Elder Snake who placed/was by my side eyeliner, so..."

"It's his fault again." Su Li murmured.

"That's right." Si Li sighed, "It's ashamed to say that after this incident, the relatives and friends of those little monsters are all grateful to me, but not only did I do nothing, but I was also kept in the dark from the beginning to the end." Fortunately, after so many years, I have also cultivated a few eyes and ears by Elder Snake's side. According to intelligence, he seems to want to perform a blood sacrifice, but failed halfway."

"Blood sacrifice!?"

The little fox subconsciously turned his head and looked in Lin Su's direction.

He still remembered what Old Wei told him when he was chatting, that Lin Su also had a similar mission, and the opponent was still a very powerful monster.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, Lin Su, who had been silent all this time, raised his eyelids, and there was a hint of caution in his eyes: "Is this true?"

"Why am I lying to you?" Although Lin Su found an opportunity to intervene in their conversation, Si Li also knew that this matter was of great importance, so he reluctantly acquiesced in the man's participation, "In order to prove this matter As for the matter, I lost a full four of my confidants, and just like that, I haven’t obtained key evidence, and I can’t shake Elder Snake’s position at all.”

Hearing this, Su Li couldn't help frowning slightly.

Since he was young, Si Xiaoshe has never regarded the guards or clansmen by his side as being equal to himself. In his view, they are more like a "resource" that can be exchanged at equal value, rather than A living life.

Su Li couldn't agree with his values ​​until now. However, in such a position, perhaps one has to be cruel enough to sit firmly.

Lin Su adapted well to his approach. After all, he had been in a high position for a long time, so he naturally had tricks.

The man pondered for a moment, then questioned: "According to what you said, even if Elder Snake erased their memories, this is by no means a safe way. But if there is one person except for mistakes, he will become the target of public criticism, and years of hard planning will be destroyed. Put it all in vain. With Elder Snake's level of scheming, he wouldn't do such a reckless thing."

Si Li twitched the corner of his mouth: "That's right, but you forgot what he's good at."

Lin Su was startled, then his face darkened.

Before the little fox could react, he asked foolishly, "What's your specialty?"

Si Li glanced at him, the young man seemed to be carefully choosing his words, and he was very careful when he spoke: "Just... cover up his mistakes with a more eye-catching thing, and blame others."

The last time he did this, Su Li was unlucky.

Last time, it was his father.

The little fox tensed his cheeks and said with a sneer, "Okay, who is he planning to cheat this time?"

Si Li lowered his eyes, a little embarrassed to speak.

"You are talking!" The young man was in a hurry, and just as he was about to stand up from his seat, Lin Su put his hand on his shoulder.

"sit down."

The man spoke in a commanding tone.

Su Li pursed his lips, his chest rose and fell for a while, and then he managed to calm down.

"I'm sorry," he whispered, "I lost my composure."

"I don't blame you, it's because I'm incompetent." Si Li smiled wryly, "I seem to be in the limelight now, but for him, I'm an easy target. The bodies of those little monsters who came back were detected. The poison of nightmares, so he took advantage of this exciting opportunity, in my name, to apply to the Dust Sea Prison for a new trial of the previous demon king—”

He looked at the little fox who was stunned on the spot, and tremblingly said: "Xiao Li, I'm sorry."

In the trial of the century that shocked the entire world many years ago, the previous demon king Yijun was sentenced to life imprisonment and was imprisoned at the bottom floor of the Dust Sea Prison, guarded by Su Minshan and members of the three sects.

If there is a retrial...

The little fox sniffed, and suddenly laughed: "Oh, I was too busy talking just now, this meat is almost burnt, hurry up!"

Si Li didn't move, just looked at him worriedly: "Xiao Li, are you okay?"

"It's okay, what can I do," the little fox replied cheerfully, stuffing meat into his mouth desperately, and asked vaguely, "Why don't you move your chopsticks?"

Lin Su put down his chopsticks heavily, and reached out to pinch the boy's chin.

"Open your mouth." He said coldly.

The little fox was startled, holding his chopsticks and not daring to move, just looked at him stupidly, swallowed the meat in his mouth with a thud, and then slowly opened his mouth.

Lin Su looked at the scalded blisters on the tip of his tongue, suppressed his emotions and asked, "Don't you feel any pain?"

"...What?" Su Li subconsciously asked back, and only then did he feel a burning pain on his tongue.

"It hurts!"

The little fox covered his mouth, tearing from the pain, and kept pulling out paper to wipe his tears, but he couldn't wipe them clean.

The tears flowed down like a flood that opened the gate.

He choked up and said, "Really, I'm really sorry, I spoiled your interest..."

The young man sitting next to him clenched his fists tightly with an extremely ugly expression.

It was as if someone had slapped him hard across the face.

Today's meal is destined to be unbearable.

Si Li silently sent them back to the Supervision Bureau. When they got off the bus, Lin Su bought two hamburgers from McDonald's on the street and gave them to Zu Li.

"Do you want me to accompany you?" He stood at the door of the staff dormitory and asked softly.

The little fox shook his head, he just wanted to be alone now.

"That's good." Lin Su said, "Good night, don't think too much."

Even after hearing such important news, the man's expression remained calm, as if he had expected this.

Si Li leaned against the car with folded arms, looked coldly at Lin Su who came out of the door with his hands in his coat pockets, and asked, "You knew about this a long time ago, didn't you?"

"Yes," Lin Su did not deny, "Last night, no, it should be said that I got wind of it earlier." He glanced at the angry young man and said lightly, "But I didn't expect that you They would actually pick this moment to make things clear, making it difficult for people to even have a good meal."

"Is this a matter of a meal!?" Si Li stepped forward and stared at him, suppressing his anger forcefully, "Although I don't have the slightest affection for that cheap father of Su Li, but I don't want to Seeing him so sad again! Why didn't you take action when you knew it? You don't have a relationship with that guy—"

"I don't know where you heard the rumors from," Lin Su's tone suddenly increased, interrupting his unfinished sentence, "but the fact is that Yijun and I have only worked together before, and the relationship is not what you imagined Kind of."

Si Li snorted coldly: "I can see this kind of face-to-face denial much more. But no matter what the relationship between you two is, I don't care. I just want to know, what are you going to do?"

"Watch what happens."

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed loudly: "Lin Su, Lin Su, even if you don't want to deal with this matter, you have to find a reasonable reason, right? It's a good thing he still trusts you so much..." He glared at the man bitterly. With one glance, he said in a hoarse voice, "Forget it, you don't care, I'll take care of it!"

As he said that, he was about to get in the car and leave, but was stopped by Lin Su.

"Wait a moment."

The man quickly grabbed the driver's door.

Si Li tried hard for a long time but failed to close it, his face suddenly sank: "Let go!"

"During this period of time, I advise you to take this with you." Lin Su threw something to him, and the young man subconsciously took a look, and his pupils shrank involuntarily—it turned out to be a treasure that even Longhushan would regard as a treasure. The ultimate self-defense talisman!

Lin Su said indifferently: "This is a talisman drawn by my subordinates. At the critical moment, at least it can save your life."

"Why did you give me this?" He hesitated.

There is nothing to be courteous, and it is either a traitor or a thief!

The man didn't answer right away, but turned his head to look in the direction of the second floor of the Super Management Bureau, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Same as you," he said, "I just don't want some little guy hiding in bed in the middle of the night and secretly crying his eyes into peaches."

"Cut." Si Li let out a disdainful sound from his nose, but finally accepted the talisman.

"I owe you a favor," he said with a straight face. "When I'm not around, remember to take good care of him."

After speaking, the young man started the car.

Lin Su let go of the car door, stayed there for a while, then turned and left.

In the silent night, a mocking chuckle sounded in his ears.

It was the voice of a mature man.

"—just 'worked with'?"

"Shut up." Lin Su strode forward expressionlessly, with no movement in his dark eyes, "The guy who is already dead, stop haunting him."

A faint black mist slowly lingered around the man. If Su Li was still here to see this scene, he would definitely stay there for an instant.

He couldn't be more familiar with this thing - from the first mission, to the encounter on Jinguo Mountain, and the death of Boss Sun, everything was related to it.

Parasitic on Lin Su for so long, this is the first time the nightmare has received a response.

It was stunned for a moment, and then let out a sharp laughter that made the scalp tingle:

"Hahahaha, Lin Su, you have today too!"

Lin Su is right, the real nightmare has already died under his hands, and now it is just a residual soul. I thought it would be completely sealed in the big formation of Yicheng, but it didn't even think of it. Not only did it survive by luck, it even found an excellent parasitic host—in this world, is there anything more pleasant than being the nightmare of one's own enemies?

"I thought you couldn't hear my voice," it smacked its mouth and said contentedly, "So it's not my illusion, your strength is indeed declining, isn't it?"

Lin Su turned a deaf ear to his provocation.

Although the bastard was always chattering in his ears, it was indeed his fault for ignoring it today.

"I can see that you have carefully selected so many homework assignments for that little guy." Seeing that Lin Su ignored him, he was not in a hurry, anyway, he was used to talking to himself during this period of time , "You want him to slowly take over your position, right? But are you serious, just that weak little crying bag? I could have crushed him with a single finger back then... Even that same The good-for-nothing Zhang Huansan is better than him!"

"So the one who survived in the end is me, not you." Lin Su stopped, and his lowered voice seemed to freeze, "The defeated dog should stop barking everywhere, it will only annoy people."

"I……"

The voice was shady and wanted to say something, but Lin Su had already prepared this time.

He directly mobilized mana to silence it forcibly, and suppressed the black mist in his body.

The world suddenly became much quieter.

The man rubbed his eyebrows, knowing that this was not a long-term solution.

Nightmare's saying is correct, the power of dragon blood is too overbearing, even he can't fully adapt to it.Yijun had warned him when the blood was changed back then, dragon blood is also known as the blood of gods, and the only one in this world who can adapt well to it without causing rejection is the real Chosen One——

The human race called this kind of person Tianqi, while the demon race called him the "son of the demon god".

Tonight, the moon is dim and the stars are as bright as water. Lin Su looked up at the sky. The twin stars in the south are shining brightly. In contrast, the Venus in the north is covered by thick clouds, and only a faint light can be barely seen. .

He has always disbelieved in these mysterious theories, but his own changes are undeniable.Lin Su was not afraid of death, but it was ridiculous to say that when the day of eternal sleep really came, endless panic arose in his heart.

——If he is really dead, who else can protect that little guy for him in the future?

This is also the reason why the black mist can take advantage of the emptiness.

After all, the so-called nightmare is a monster born from an empty heart, based on paranoia and obsession, and constantly growing.

So he can't die yet.

Lin Su's gaze gradually sank. He forcibly suppressed the fishy sweetness in his throat due to the backlash of the black mist, put his hands back into his pockets as if nothing had happened, and started walking again.

The next morning.

"Morning, Xiao Su." Zhang Huansan greeted Su Li who was brushing his teeth with a water cup in the bathroom, and he teased, "It seems that I slept well last night, and my eyes are not swollen into peaches today."

"Brother Zhang!" The little fox flicked his tail with his mouth full of foam, showing a helpless expression, "I mutter..."

"Stop, stop, you'd better finish brushing your teeth before talking to me."

Zhang Huansan hurriedly gestured for a pause, but just as Su Li finished rinsing his mouth, he answered again: "By the way, you can save your work today until the afternoon. Director Lin asked me to train you well. do you remember?"

Su Li nodded.

"I'll be waiting for you at the training ground," Zhang Huansan said with a smile, "Don't forget to eat breakfast."

"Why?" The little fox tilted his head, a little confused.

"Trust me, it's for your own good." Zhang Huansan said seriously.

After he left, Su Li was washing his face and pondering in his heart, did Zhang Huansan mean that he would throw up after eating breakfast?

...Then how rigorous the training was.

The little fox's heart began to beat a drum, and the movements of his hands couldn't help being full.The Supervision Bureau provided hot water, but today, in order to keep himself awake, he deliberately soaked the towel with cold water, and after washing his face, he wiped his ears carefully in front of the mirror.

Like the tail, this is one of his most sensitive parts. After touching the cold water, the little fox immediately shivered, and the little sleepiness that was left at first disappeared instantly.

"Come here?"

In the empty training ground, Zhang Huansan was dancing to the music. If it weren't for the radio gymnastics music playing on his mobile phone, just looking at the Taoist robes would really have a taste of being born in the world.

The little fox specially changed into a pair of shoes suitable for sports. Seeing Zhang Huansan looking over, he nodded solemnly, ready to meet the challenge at any time.

"Exactly, I didn't have breakfast either." Zhang Huansan let out a long breath, finished the last eight beats, walked to the side, and threw him a bucket of instant noodles, "Shall we eat together?"

The little fox's eyes widened: "Brother Zhang, is that why you don't let me have breakfast?"

"Otherwise?" Zhang Huan asked, "But here only provides room temperature water, how to cook instant noodles, you don't need me to remind you, right?"

Su Li: "..."

He seemed to understand something.

After half an hour.

"Oh, it took another bucket." Zhang Huansan quickly dodged his eyes, looked at the instant noodles that had instantly turned into flying ash, and couldn't help sighing, "I can't help it, it seems that this breakfast is going to be lunch gone."

The little fox propped his knees profusely in sweat, and murmured incredulously: "Impossible, I used to cook instant noodles with fox fire before, why can't it be done now?"

"It's more powerful than before, isn't it?" Zhang Huansan took out a pair of glasses from nowhere, and after wearing them, he looked like a teacher, but the teasing smile on his face ruined the overall image, "You This situation is normal, I heard from Bureau Lin that you let Jinhua attach to you when you were on Jinguo Mountain, right?"

Su Li nodded, is there any problem?

"Normally speaking, the strength of ghosts will only grow after being possessed, and will not weaken." Zhang Huansan took the pointer and slammed the blackboard, "But you said that Jinhua was killed by you because of excessive consumption of soul power. The body fell into a deep sleep, so there is only one possibility—"

The man coughed and his expression became serious:

"When he possessed the body, he used his soul power to help you offset part of the demon power on the bone nail."

The little fox opened his mouth, and he said embarrassedly: "Brother Zhang, you already know."

"Otherwise?" Zhang Huansan glared at him resentfully, "I said, Xiao Su, what do you think of our Super Management Bureau? You treat me and the Forestry Bureau as outsiders!"

"No……"

"It's fine if you don't have one," Zhang Huansan patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, we all know Xiao Su's nature, no matter what happens, you will stand by your side unconditionally." Yizheng said, "I just can't see someone bullying our own family! No matter what kind of snake elder or old worm he is, fuck him!"

The little fox was very moved: "Brother Zhang, you are so kind."

"That's it," Zhang Huansan said without humility, but after being serious for less than a minute, he began to wink at him again, "Since Brother Zhang is so good, the next time you see Bureau Lin, don't you, Xiao Su? You forgot to ask me when the double salary increase will arrive!"

Su Li: "...Okay."

But Zhang Huansan really put his heart into it when he said that he wanted to teach him.One morning, it took only three and a half hours, when Su Li walked out of the training ground, his legs were shaking like noodles.

Zhang Huansan has only one request for him: No matter what method is used, as long as he can touch his body, Su Li will pass the test.

But he never expected that the spiritual water talisman that Zhang Huansan usually uses to wash dishes can extinguish his fox fire, and the spiritual soil talisman used to grow garlic sprouts for the back kitchen can change the terrain, and he can use it on the road to prevent being detained for being late for work The salary talisman was stuck on his leg, and he couldn't even touch the corner of the man's clothes...

After countless attempts to fail, try, and fail again, it's time to use the training ground.

When he left the training ground, the little fox was still thinking dejectedly, it was the first time he knew that there were so many uses for talismans!

"My level can be regarded as one of the best on Longhu Mountain," Zhang Huansan walked behind him, boasting without blushing, "Back then, the Bureau of Forestry knew people with their eyes, so they visited the thatched cottage and begged me in every possible way. Stay and work in the Supervision Bureau, otherwise I will pay such a small salary, and I will not do it."

"is it?"

Lin Su's faint voice came from not far away. ,

Under Zhang Huansan's horrified gaze, the man walked over, and chuckled inexplicably: "Why don't I remember, I have 'begged in every possible way' and 'visited thatched cottage three times'?"

"This..." Zhang Huansan laughed dryly, shrunk his neck, and hesitated.

"Forest Bureau." Su Li looked at him and called softly.

He has tried his best not to think about what happened yesterday, because it is useless to think about it. He has no money and no status, and he is a little monster who can't talk about it. Qian Jinyu actually said nothing last time Wrong, if his strength is not good enough, no one will look at him directly.

Even if the accident happened to his father...

The little fox pursed her lips and lowered her head in discomfort.

"You come with me."

Lin Su's voice interrupted his thoughts, the little fox was startled, and hurriedly said: "Okay!"

He quickened his pace and followed the man to an empty corner.

Lin Su stopped, turned around and looked quietly at the little guy in front of him.

The sun outside the window shone on his side face, his delicate and smooth skin like porcelain was clearly visible in the sunlight, and even the fine golden fluff on the surface could be seen.And because of the training just now, the boy's hair looked a little messy, but his eyes were extraordinarily bright, a strand of hair soaked in sweat stuck to his forehead, and his lips parted slightly from panting were inexplicably rosy and attractive.

Lin Su subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch his cheek.

"Bureau Lin, what can I do for you?" the little fox asked in confusion.

The man's hand paused, and he came back to his senses in an instant, and instead helped Su Li brush away that lock of hair.

"How did you sleep last night?" he asked.

"...It's okay." Su Li whispered, "At least I didn't have a nightmare."

Lin Su was silent for a while, then suddenly changed the subject: "Do you know how Zhang Huansan got here?"

The little fox blinked his eyes: "Didn't you get driven out of Longhu Mountain and then homeless and taken in by you in the Forestry Bureau?"

Lin Su raised the corners of his lips: "So you know."

"Cang Yuan told me," the little fox said with a chuckle, "he is the little prince of gossip."

"But he probably didn't tell you that Zhang Huansan didn't actually commit a crime and was kicked out of the mountain," Lin Su said. Delisted."

Su Li was puzzled, "Why?"

"The specific reasons are very complicated, but you just need to know one thing," Lin Su pointed a finger at him, "Through Zhang Huansan, you can get in touch with the upper level of Longhu Mountain, and even the contemporary celestial master, Zhang Qiongyi. It's the only chance you can get for your father."

The little fox stared blankly at him, suffocating for breath.

"But, but," he stammered, "Brother Zhang probably won't agree to this kind of thing, right? After all, he's been away from Longhu Mountain for so long, and it's still in that way..."

"You're right," Lin Su nodded. "This is indeed a taboo of his. Even if I talk to him in person, it may not be successful. But Su Li, you are different."

Seeing that the boy was still waiting for his next words, Lin Su smiled and continued:

"Because teaching you as a teacher is the only chance in his life to surpass Zhang Qiongyi."
