Blame this seat for thinking that he is attacking

When Yu Cizhou came out of the wine shop, it was already late at night.

There are still many restaurants and teahouses on the street that are lit with candles, but there are many fewer people on the street.

Yu Cizhou was carrying the packed food box in his hand, and couldn't help but stroll to the door of Xunhuan Building and take a look inside.At night, this kind of place is the busiest time, when the young gentleman at the door saw Yu Cizhou, he couldn't help but stepped forward to tug on him.

"Don't hold back, I won't run away." Yu Cizhou smiled at them with a gentle tone.

He was already handsome, he looked very eye-catching, and he was easy to approach when he smiled. Seeing this, the young men became more courageous and moved towards him one after another.

Yu Cizhou stayed away a little bit calmly, but the smile on his face did not diminish, and he asked, "Has any of you here today a handsome young man in a white shirt?"

"Young Master, why do you ask this?" A young gentleman asked.

"He owes me money, I want to ask if he is squandering here?" Yu Cizhou said.

A young gentleman next to him laughed and said: "The young master, the creditor, has never been idle. Since he entered our building, there have been more than a dozen waiters. He can hold on. Come on. I didn’t feel tired after a few rounds.”

Yu Cizhou: ...

He knew that most of these people would not be able to ask the truth, so he took a piece of silver and sent them away, then turned and left.

"Young Master, don't you want to go in and sit down?" A young minister asked Yu Cizhou openly.

Yu Cizhou waved his hands without turning his head and said, "No, my lower body is weak."

Although he found nothing, Yu Cizhou still couldn't help being curious.He thought about Jiang Qian's handsome face, and couldn't help but wonder what kind of expression Jiang Qian would have when facing these entangled little husbands.

Is it as soft-spoken as he pretended before?

Or is it as unsmiling as usual, keeping strangers away?

Yu Cizhou only thought about it for a while, and his eyes became complicated, and then he forcibly suppressed those complicated thoughts.

The lights on the corner of the street were much darker than before, presumably some restaurants and teahouses were closed.

Yu Cizhou walked slowly through the slightly dark street, his eyes flickered, and he sensed a strange evil spirit.

The evil spirit seemed to fall behind him, not too close, if not for the breeze blowing just now, he might not even notice it.

Yu Cizhou didn't stop in his footsteps, and didn't turn his head to look. He just quietly took out a spirit stone with one hand, trying to capture some evil energy and seal it in the spirit stone.

His spirit stone can not only seal up demonic energy, but also demonic energy.

As long as he can capture a little bit of the other party's breath, he can sense the other party's location through the spirit stone.

The master of the evil spirit seemed to be extremely cautious, following Yu Cizhou from a distance, not daring to approach.

Yu Cizhou turned around the corner, tried his best to restrain his demonic aura, and hid in the shadow of the corner.

When most of the monsters first came to the human race, they were too incapable of completely restraining their monster power, and usually released a little intentionally or unintentionally.Only a monster like Yu Cizhou who has lived in the human race for a long time and has excellent self-control can completely restrain the monster energy, and even the same race can hardly detect it.

The demon didn't notice Yu Cizhou's strangeness, only when Yu Cizhou had gone too far did he lose his breath.

So he turned around the street corner unpreparedly, and walked past the shadow where Yu Cizhou was hiding.

Holding the spirit stone in his hand, Yu Cizhou quietly caught a trace of the monster's evil spirit and sealed it in the spirit stone.

The other party chased forward for a while, and found that he had lost Yu Cizhou, and seemed a little annoyed.

He lingered on the spot for a while, and finally walked away angrily.

Yu Cizhou held the spirit stone in his hand, and waited for the other party to walk away before releasing the demonic power to activate the spirit stone.But even if he could know the other party's movements, Yu Cizhou didn't rush to follow him. Now that his demon power has not recovered, he may not be able to gain the upper hand if he really wants to fight.

What's more, the monster was coming for him, and Yu Cizhou didn't dare to act rashly before he found out the identity of the other party.

When Yu Cizhou returned to Ping'an Lane, Jiang Qian had already fallen asleep.

The little mynah was sitting on the stone bench in a daze. He clearly remembered that Jiang Qian had said before going out that he would bring food back, but he didn't expect that the other party not only came back empty-handed, but also very angry. The little mynah didn't dare to complain. Honestly waited for Yu Cizhou.

Fortunately, when Yu Cizhou came back, he didn't have time to do it. When the little mynah saw the food box in his hand, he was so moved that he almost cried on the spot.

"Why did you offend our Protector Jiang? He looked so angry when he came back." The little starling asked Yu Cizhou while taking out the contents of the food box by himself.

Yu Cizhou touched his nose and said, "I said I don't know, do you believe me?"

The little starling thought for a while, nodded and said, "I believe it."

The little mynah didn't even pick up the chopsticks, so he stretched out his hand to pinch a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. He lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you say that there is a demon outside him? Was it because of the demon outside?"

At dusk, Yu Cizhou originally wanted to take the little mynah to the Xunhuan Building, but later felt that the little mynah was too young to go to that kind of place, so he asked him to wait at home. know what happened.

In fact, even Yu Cizhou didn't know what Jiang Qian had gone through.

It can only be inferred from Jiang Qian's bad mood that he probably didn't find happiness in the Xunhuan Building.

"Don't take it to heart, our Protector Jiang is not messy, he still cares about you." The little starling comforted Yu Cizhou while eating meat: "Don't say anything else, he is here for you Guangling Daze just left."

Hearing the words, Yu Cizhou thought of something, and his eyes became a little gentler.

He took out the spirit stone and hung it under the spirit tree, and released some demon power to activate the spirit stone.

The weak demonic power in the spirit stone seemed very quiet, without any changes.

"What's going on here?" the little starling asked.

Yu Cizhou didn't answer his question, but sat in front of the stone table and lowered his voice to ask, "When your guardian Jiang was in Guangling Daze, what was your relationship with Phoenix Demon Venerable?"

The little starling's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he became interested, he didn't even care about eating the meat, and said: "The relationship is not ordinary."

"Expand and talk about it." Yu Cizhou picked out a duck leg for him, showing a very curious look.

The little mynah hurriedly said: "Phoenix Demon Venerable never likes other demons to get close, except for Protector Jiang, who can enter and exit Yuqiong Palace at will without even notifying him. Moreover, the Demon Lord's unique sorcery has been passed on to Protector Jiang. Old Baihe is jealous of this matter."

Yu Cizhou opened his mouth and said: "Jiang Protector is powerful, it's not surprising that Yao Zun thinks highly of him."

"Why isn't this unusual?" The little starling said mysteriously, "You don't know, the Yaozun used to ask for a mate from Guardian Jiang."

The smile in Yu Cizhou's eyes faded when he heard the words, and he said, "No way?"

"Why not? Many demons in Guangling Daze know about this." The little starling said.

Yu Cizhou asked: "Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"That's not true, but that's what they all said." The little starling said: "It is said that Guardian Jiang rejected the Yaozun, and the Yaozun was so angry that he stayed in seclusion for more than a year and didn't come out."

The smile in Yu Cizhou's eyes gradually recovered when he heard the words.

The little starling said again: "However, Protector Jiang still cares about the Yao Zun, and he almost never disobeys the Yao Zun."

"Then he ran out privately this time?" Yu Cizhou said.

"Isn't this for you?" The little starling smiled, with a flattering smile, and said, "So, Mr. Demon Envoy, you have to be responsible for our Protector Jiang."

Hearing this, Yu Cizhou glanced at the direction of the guest room, and said, "Your guardian Jiang hasn't asked me to detoxify him until now."

"Does this need to be said? You will know it." The little starling said helplessly: "There are many things that don't need to be said, you can experience it yourself."

After hearing the words, Yu Cizhou thought about it carefully, and felt that he was still not sure what Jiang Qian meant, because Jiang Qian's attitude changed so quickly that he really couldn't figure it out.

Yu Cizhou didn't sleep that night.

Early the next morning, as soon as he felt sleepy, there was a knock on the courtyard door.

The people who came were officials from Dali Temple. One was Wei Tingyi and the other was Lu Feng. They were old acquaintances of Yu Cizhou.

The two of them were in charge of cases related to the Yaozu in Dali Temple, so every time something happened, they would come to Yu Cizhou.

Yu Cizhou felt dizzy when he saw the two of them, because he knew without guessing that something must have happened again.

"Master Demon Envoy, something happened at Tianxing Temple in the suburbs of Beijing last night. The monks in the temple reported the case overnight. This is the file. Please have a look at it, Lord Demon Envoy." After finishing speaking, Wei Tingyi gave the file to Yu Cizhou. Looking at the description, I couldn't help but frown.

After a while, he said, "It may not be the work of a demon."

"Yes, but Tianxing Temple is a royal temple, and His Majesty personally raised the plaque at the entrance. Now that something like this has happened, I dare not neglect it. I just want to trouble Lord Yaoshi to go and have a look." Lu Feng Chao Yu Cizhou said: "If the Lord Demon Envoy has checked that it was not the work of a demon, then there will be a conclusion on this matter."

The implication is that as long as it is confirmed that it is not a monster, the two of them have no responsibility.

But if it was done by a demon, they would have done their duty by coming to Yu Cizhou as soon as possible.

Yu Cizhou didn't care much about their official ways, but he glanced at the spirit stone hanging under the spirit tree. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little ominous, wondering if this case would be the same as yesterday's case. Does it matter if you follow your demon late?

Thinking of this, he said to those two people: "You guys wait a moment, I will prepare."

The two were overjoyed immediately when they heard the words, they stood obediently in the yard and waited without daring to urge them.

In the guest room, Jiang Qian had already been woken up, but she hadn't gotten up yet.

Yu Cizhou walked to the door and knocked, then opened the door and went in.

Jiang Qian raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes no longer had the gentleness of yesterday, but they had completely returned to their former appearance.

Yu Cizhou walked to the edge and sat down, and said, "Can you accompany me to the suburbs of Beijing?"

Jiang Qian said calmly, "Why?"

"There may be monsters who want you to protect me." Yu Cizhou said.

Jiang Qian: ...

He looked at Yu Cizhou in surprise, as if he didn't understand how Yu Cizhou could make such a request so frankly.

Yu Cizhou was really calm, even smiled at Jiang Qian, and said, "You also know that I am weak now, and if I encounter danger when I go out, I can't protect myself, and I will make you worry."

Jiang Qian: ...

I don't worry about him, but if something happens to Yu Cizhou, he won't be able to detoxify him.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qian said, "All right."

Yu Cizhou breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and handed his hand to Jiang Qian, as if planning to wait for Jiang Qian to get up.

When Jiang Qian got up and saw the two people in the yard, she frowned almost invisibly.

He has the habit of combing his feathers every morning, and now that there are human beings present, it is difficult for him to become a peacock again.

Yu Cizhou knew his habit, and was afraid that he would be unhappy, so he hurriedly fetched clean water and asked Jiang Qian to wash his hands.Reluctantly, Jiang Qian dipped his hands in the water, which was a symbolic completion of the "ritual" of getting up in the morning. Yu Cizhou hurriedly took a clean cloth towel and waited for Jiang Qian to dry his hands.

The two officials of Dali Temple watched this scene dumbfounded, and were speechless for a long time.

Although this Master Demon Envoy looks easy-going on weekdays, he still has a lot of airs. He didn't expect to be in such a position at home.

Looking at Jiang Qian again, with a cold face, he didn't even give Mr. Yaoshi a good face.

The two of them glanced at each other at the same time, and both sighed on behalf of Lord Demon Envoy.

Yu Cizhou wanted to go with the people from Dali Temple again, but suddenly remembered that Jiang Qian seemed to dislike their slow carriage last time, so he said to Jiang Qian: "I know the way to Tianxing Temple, after we leave the city , you can abandon the carriage and fly over with me in your arms."

Jiang Qian took a look at Yu Cizhou, and said in her heart that I don't really want to hug you now.

Ever since he realized that Yu Cizhou's performance in that area was very good, Jiang Qian was hit hard.

He was smug at first, thinking that he must get back his reputation with Yu Cizhou, but now he is very frustrated.Not to mention that Yu Cizhou behaved too well and didn't give him much space at all, but Jiang Qian had no experience at all, and he didn't want to let himself go and find some young husband-in-law "practice makes perfect".

In this way, Jiang Qian's "great ambition" is almost impossible to realize.

That being the case, he was too lazy to put on that pose in front of Yu Cizhou again...

"Why did you change your clothes back today?" Yu Cizhou glanced at the plain white clothes on Jiang Qian's body, raised his head and realized that Jiang Qian had also changed the green jade hairpin, and broke off a spirit tree branch to fasten it on.

The flower peacock turned into a white peacock again.

"It's gaudy and uncomfortable in clothes." Jiang Qian said casually.

"That's good too." Yu Cizhou said, "You look good in anything you wear."

Jiang Qian was in a bad mood and didn't want to chat with him much, so he leaned on the carriage and fell asleep.

Yu Cizhou saw that he was silent and didn't bother him, and everyone finally arrived at Tianxing Temple in a carriage.

A team of officers and soldiers had already guarded outside the temple, and other officials from Dali Temple had also arrived.

Except for Lu Feng and Wei Tingyi, no one else knew the identities of Yu Cizhou and Jiang Qian, so they didn't pay much attention to them.

As soon as Jiang Qian and Yu Cizhou reached the gate of the temple, they frowned in unison.

Just because they were far away, they could feel a faint evil spirit shrouded in the temple.

Without being led by others, Jiang Qian and Yu Cizhou found the backyard by following the demon force.

Many people gathered outside a certain room in the backyard, including officials from Dali Temple and doctors.

Jiang Qian and Yu Cizhou glanced in from a distance, and saw that there were many monks in the room, all of them had lost their eyeballs without exception, and there were only two blood holes left under their eyebrows, which was shocking to watch.

"Have your eyes gouged out?" Jiang Qian asked.

"It looks like it was pecked off." Yu Cizhou said.

Jiang Qian frowned, and glanced at Yu Cizhou.

The word "peck" meant that the matter was done by the Qin Clan.

"You don't have any evidence, so you can conclude that it was my family's work?" Jiang Qian said coldly.

"I'm not sure, I just said it's possible." Yu Cizhou said hastily.

There were many human races around, Yu Cizhou motioned Jiang Qian to take a few steps to the side, and then continued: "The wound doesn't look like it was done by a sharp knife, it looks like something caught the eyeball and pulled it out."

Jiang Qian had just seen the wounds on the monks' eyes clearly, and knew that Yu Cizhou's speculation was reasonable.

But he still couldn't help but said: "My clan relies on Mizuki spiritual energy for cultivation, and doesn't need to rely on human clan to cultivate."

In fact, not only the birds, but most of the monsters of the orcs and waters also rely on water and wood aura.

Only a small number of monsters will hunt weak monsters to improve their cultivation.

But no matter what kind of monster it is, it will not use the human race to cultivate.

Most of the people who use the human race to cultivate are demons.

"This thing is indeed a demon, and I've seen him before." After Yu Cizhou finished speaking, he took out the spirit stone, moved it a little in front of Jiang Qian, and saw that the demon energy in the spirit stone moved a little, and it was separated from the temple. The demon power that went away echoed from afar.

Jiang Qian looked at Yu Cizhou and asked, "Did you attack him?"

"You're not here, how dare I take risks?" Yu Cizhou said.

Yu Cizhou's words were too natural, as if his dependence on Jiang Qian had become a given, which made Jiang Qian a little unaccustomed to it.But he didn't seem to reject Yu Cizhou's statement, and it was even quite useful, because Yu Cizhou's words were tantamount to admitting that Jiang Qian was in a slightly stronger position among them.

"When I left the Xunhuan Building last night, he was following me..." Yu Cizhou said.

"Did you go to Xunhuan Building last night?" Jiang Qian asked.

Yu Cizhou: ...

No...is this important?

"I passed by...he followed me, so I tried to take the opportunity to collect a little bit of his evil spirit." Yu Cizhou said.

"Then is he the Qin clan?" Jiang Qian asked.

Yu Cizhou thought for a while and said, "It's very strange, it doesn't look like a Qin clan, but also looks like a Qin clan."

Hearing the words, Jiang Qian's face showed a little bit of confusion, how could Yu Cizhou not be able to tell what the other party was?

Is Yu Cizhou too useless, or is the other party too powerful?

"I will find out about this matter. If it is really Qinzu, I will clean up the house myself." Jiang Qian said.

Yu Cizhou laughed when he heard the words: "Why do you have to distinguish so clearly, let's check it together."

Jiang Qian didn't refute him when he heard the words, but got up and walked to the front yard of the temple.

Now that something like this happened in the temple, several monks were injured, and the atmosphere in the whole temple was very solemn.

Jiang Qian walked to the front hall, looked up at the row of Buddha statues enshrined inside, and said, "Humans always like to talk about killing demons and eliminating demons. In their hearts, is there any difference between us and demons?"

Yu Cizhou thought for a while and said, "The monsters in their hearts have nothing to do with us."

"If you say that, there are demons in the hearts of the human race, and there are demons in the hearts of the demon race and the demon race." Jiang Qian said.

Yu Cizhou turned his head to look at Jiang Qian, wanting to say something, but held back.

Jiang Qian looked at the Buddha statue, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, then he turned and left the hall without saying anything.

Yu Cizhou and Jiang Qian scoured the temple, but didn't get too many clues.

Simply that demon's demonic aura is very clear, as long as he doesn't leave the capital, he won't be able to escape sooner or later.

On the same day, Jiang Qian and Yu Cizhou returned to the capital.

When they returned to Ping'an Lane, they met Zhuangyuan Lang who had just returned from the Yamen.

Zhuangyuan Lang held a cloth bag in his hand, which seemed to contain several books.

He handed the cloth bag to Jiang Qian, and said, "En Yao, Hu Jiu asked me to give it to you. If you are free, if you are interested, you can look through it, maybe you can gain something." Hu Jiu in his mouth, It must be the name of the fox demon.

Jiang Qian took the cloth bag and thanked Zhuangyuan Lang.

Zhuangyuan Lang didn't stay any longer, he saluted them and left.

Yu Cizhou looked at Zhuangyuan Lang's back, and said, "Although Xuanzhi is a human race, he is more transparent than you and me. Knowing that his life is not long, not only did he not feel sorry for himself at all, but he lived more freely than before."

It is reasonable for Zhuangyuan Lang to seek pleasure in the last part of his life, but what is even more surprising is that while he is seeking pleasure, he has never let up on his errands in the Imperial Academy.It was as if the threat of death was not worth mentioning to him.

"Did you tell him about the herring?" Yu Cizhou asked Jiang Qian.

"No." Jiang Qian said.

It's not that he doesn't say anything, but he hasn't figured out how to say it yet.

Zhuangyuan Lang may not care about life and death, but Jiang Qian doesn't know whether he cares about a man's dignity.

"I'll go and tell him later." Yu Cizhou said, "In the end, I can save my life."

Jiang Qian thought for a while and said, "And you know that he will choose a way to save his life?"

Yu Cizhou was startled, and looked at Jiang Qian.

After a while, he asked Jiang Qian, "What do you choose?"

Jiang Qian didn't make a sound when he heard the words. After leaving Guangling Daze, it was the first time they faced this problem.

"Guess." Jiang Qian said.

"If I were the number one scholar, I would definitely want to save my life." Yu Cizhou said, "If I were you, I would choose to save my life."

Jiang Qian: ...

"In your opinion, this is an easy thing?" Jiang Qian asked.

"At least it's not difficult." Yu Cizhou said: "Let's not talk about your matter, anyway, it has already happened once."

Jiang Qian: ...

Yu Cizhou said: "There is no need to hesitate about Xuanzhi's affairs. The usefulness of a man's things is limited. As long as he can think about it, he will give it up. Besides, he has the habit of Longyang, and he will not be without that thing." It's tight, but I don't have a choice in the position, but I can still be happy."

Jiang Qian looked at Yu Cizhou and asked, "Do you think it doesn't matter where you are as long as you can be happy?"

"En." Yu Cizhou subconsciously responded, only then did he realize that there was something wrong with the way Jiang Qian looked at him.

"Very good." Looking at him, Jiang Qian's eyes suddenly became a little softer, and even her voice softened a lot, and she said to Yu Cizhou, "Then in the future, when you relieve the evil poison for me , you stay down."

Yu Cizhou: ...

Yu Cizhou is so familiar with Jiang Qian's strange attitude, no wonder he has been feeling uncomfortable, so...

There was a smile on Jiang Qian's handsome face, and he reached out to gently shake Yu Cizhou's hand, and said:

"This seat will make you happy."

Yu Cizhou: ...
