Bite~

"Thank you for participating. ”

Returning to reality, Yang Zhen threw himself on the elegant big bed in the Red Mansion Villa, pillowed the back of his head with his hands, and sighed heavily.

"When will I be able to sign in for a Qi Refining?"

"Do you have to wait for the auction in two months?"

"In that case, the speed will be slowed down~"

......

It's frustrating that all sorts of questions keep popping up in my head, each of which seems unanswered.

Cultivating the truth is against the sky, which is equivalent to forcibly reversing the cause and effect of the world, and the ascension of each realm is as difficult as ascending to the sky. Yang Zhen didn't know that many people couldn't break through the forging body after practicing all their lives. Su Ziqing - the eldest daughter of the Su family's cultivation, when Sunan took out countless heavenly and earthly treasures to cut her hair and wash the marrow, it took 3 years to successfully forge the body; Shu Xiaoman - with the secret method inherited by the family, she still forged her body ten times after 18 years, and she just broke through the qi refining two days ago; Yu Meng was known as the genius of the family cultivation back then, and it took 20 years to reach the first level of qi refining.

But when he reached the forging body, he said two words:

"Check-in"......

And it's been less than a month since he cultivated it!

This is also fortunate that he lives alone in the Red Mansion, if it is known that he dislikes himself here for being too slow to enter the realm, there are not many people in the cultivation realm who will wipe their necks.

There was a sudden vibration of a heavy object falling to the ground in the room, Yang Zhen was startled, and turned around after brushing the floor.

The room is decorated in European style, with solid wood floors, exquisite fireplace, Victorian wallpaper on all four walls, and Gothic-style windows with pure white curtains, which look unusual.

But......

Yang Zhen's gaze suddenly stopped on the fireplace.

Because the lights are not turned on, the corner with the fireplace is dark, and you can't see your fingers, but this is impossible, in the city, even if you turn on the lights, the street lamps outside the window, the starlight in the night...... would give the bedroom a faint light, but now he couldn't see anything.

The darkness that cannot be dissolved is like a black hole that can absorb all the light sources, and the surroundings are surprisingly quiet, and there is not the slightest sound, which makes people easily think of those unknown crises lurking in the dark night.

Yang Zhen involuntarily grabbed the katana leaning against the table.

He slowly approached the fireplace vigilantly, and a figure suddenly broke through the sky in the darkness, dressed in white, and his body lying on the ground was strangely twisted, and his long black hair covered his face like a hanging curtain, almost like a ......

Sadako!

The ghost...... Finally found!

Yang Zhen's face was expressionless, his left hand clenched the handle of the knife, his thumb nudged it, the knife came out of the sheath an inch, the iron cyan light splashed out, the cold cold light illuminated the eyes, and the young man's gaze was even colder than the knife light.

Onimaru Kunitsuna, the legendary artifact of slaying ghosts!

"Pain, pain, pain~!"

In a series of screams of pain, Sadako raised her head, her long hair swept to the sides, revealing Shu Xiaoman's face that was about to cry.

"What did you hide in the fireplace?"

Yang Zhen silently put the knife back in its place, sat on the sofa and stroked his forehead with his hand.

"Can you play in a different way next time?"

This guy knows that a ghost is coveting him recently, so he has to pretend to be a female ghost in front of him......

"Sister doesn't want to either~" Shu Xiaoman pouted and stood up, sat on the sofa with his ass, and rubbed his head with bared teeth, "There is a problem with the teleportation technique, do you think my sister likes to fall into the fireplace and eat soil~!"

“...... I have a door in my house. Yang Zhen had to prompt.

"That person is anxious to find the real murderer~!"

Find the real culprit?

Yang Zhen suddenly became serious: "Found that ghost?"

"That's it~" Shu Xiaoman leaned over mysteriously, "In the past two days, when you were pretending to be forced to sprinkle dog food everywhere in the school, I took the opportunity to ......"

"I'm not pretending. ”

"You're pretending. ”

"I didn't!" Yang Zhen emphasized.

Is it interesting that he is disgusted with the kind of person who pretends to be forced when he has nothing to do, and he seems to be lame all day long?

When he was in the Delta Force, although Yang Zhen was the captain of the Falcon Commando, everyone usually preferred to call him "sergeant" - because in front of the soldiers, he never had the frame of a captain.

But as long as he enters the task, Yang Zhen will be like a different person, resolute, ruthless, and decisive, and no matter how difficult the task is with him, he can be successfully completed, and he is trusted by everyone. Therefore, when he left the army and returned to China, many people were reluctant.

Therefore, in school, Yang Zhen has always been very low-key, which is of course due to his personality, but more importantly, since he started cultivating Zhen, he has a different perspective on ordinary people.

In fact, Yang Zhen has also read a lot of urban Xiuzhen novels, in which the protagonists are all displayed in front of mortals after Xiuzhen, and the goshawk-like eyes seem to be saying, "Lao Tzu knows how to be immortal, and he doesn't have a little worship of his eyes, and he is not blind in vain", but after Yang Zhen himself started to cultivate Zhen, he didn't think so.

The reason is simple, would you pretend to be in front of a swarm of ants?

However, this kind of thinking is obviously not understandable to everyone, Shu Xiaoman rewarded him with a roll of the eyes:

"Come on~ Don't interrupt. Let me tell you, in the past two days, when I found out that you and Tang Shiyue were in and out of the pair, that breath appeared again. ”

"Oh?"

"And the breath is very close to you. ”

Yang Zhen frowned, and Shu Xiaoman suddenly became unhappy:

"What, you don't believe me?"

"It's not. Yang Zhen waved his hand, "I just think it's ......"

"What do you think?"

“............ Nothing, you go on. ”

"Then I tried to follow you," Shu Xiaoman said, "Sure enough, I found that not far behind you, there was a pair of eyes staring at you all the time, and always showing bitter hatred! Guess who this person is?"

"Who?"

"Lin Lan. Shu Xiaoman triumphantly announced the answer.

Yang Zhen let out a soft "ah".

It turned out to be her......

He remembered what Lin Lan had said to him a few days ago:

"Warning you, don't get close to Tang Shiyue!"

......

"Because you don't deserve her!"

......

"Don't think that if you enter the club, you will get the moon first! Stay away from her! Otherwise, you will die ugly!"

......

Could it really be her?

"But why is it?" Yang Zhen asked, "She is Tang Shiyue's best friend, not her boyfriend, which boy Tang Shiyue is with is none of her business, right?

"You're wrong. ”

Shu Xiaoman stood up and tilted down 45 degrees to look down at Yang Zhen:

"Always remember my sister's words, you can't just look at the appearance. As a cultivator, if you don't have the ability to discover the essence through phenomena, how can you do it!"

Yang Zhen wiped his face.

"Okay~" he spread his hands, "Then tell me, how do you explain this problem?"

"At first glance, it does seem contradictory, but from another angle, it all makes sense – did you know that there is such a thing as a 'lily' in the world?"

Yang Zhen was silent, of course Lily knew that the original sin of girls and the fun of boys. If you follow this logic, all Lin Lan's words and deeds can really be explained.

He sat quietly, one hand on his chin, and the other on the coffee table tapping an unconscious rhythm. Shu Xiaoman didn't know what Yang Zhen was still hesitating about, she really wanted to shout at him that it was the duty of a cultivator to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and besides, everyone was sharpening their knives to the lamb, so at this time, she should shout "Punish you on behalf of the moon" and then gorgeously transform into a "double ponytail ruling", what are you still in a daze?

She thought so and decided to do so, so she took a breath and was about to speak, when Yang Zhen spoke:

"But that's just inference, we have no evidence. ”

Shu Xiaoman jumped up from the sofa: "Do you think I will frame my classmates casually without evidence?" ”

Yang Zhen was stunned: "Where are you going?"

"Lin Lan's family. ”

※※※

Moonlight.

The full moon is like a disk.

The moonlight caressed the earth, seeping into the city's high-rise buildings and mansions, and everything between heaven and earth became more holy under the silver light.

However, there is another place where even the moonlight cannot dispel the darkness.

Zhang's Mansion.

Zhang Jiahao has been standing in front of the window for a long time, and it seems that he has become a sculpture for a long time - in fact, his whole person is as perfect as a sculpture. However, no matter who sees him at this moment, they will not associate this young man standing quietly in front of the window with the school grass of the handsome sunny guy in the Xingong University.

At this moment, Zhang Jiahao seemed to be in shadow all over his body, and he didn't even dare to approach the light, which made him look extremely terrifying.

"You're here?" Zhang Jiahao suddenly spoke.

The air behind him swayed, and a dark shadow appeared behind him.

"I'm coming. The dark shadow spoke slowly, his voice cold without the slightest hint of emotion.

"It seems that you are not bringing good news. Zhang Jiahao didn't look back, just looked out the window at the city at night, as if something attractive there was clinging to his sight.

The shadow was silent, as if it had never said anything.

The room was so silent that even a pin dropped on the floor made a heart-pounding sound.

"There was a cultivator by his side. The person was in the way, and I noticed that she had been following me secretly, as if she had noticed me. ”

The voice of the black shadow sounded cold as death, without the slightest rise and fall.

Same with her people.

"Shu Xiaoman of the Shu family?" Zhang Jiahao sneered, "It's just a yellow-haired girl, her cultivation is low, and the Shu family itself is not a great character, although many of their cultivation techniques are specifically for the ghost clan, but a third-rate cultivation family." As a deacon of the ghost clan, you are still afraid of her?"

"Former deacon. The dark shadow reminded, this time finally carrying a hint of emotion in her tone.

Hateful emotions.

"And don't forget," said the Shadow, "I haven't recovered yet. ”

"That's your problem. Zhang Jiahao said coldly, "I only care about one thing, when can I get rid of that Yang Zhen." ”

The shadow was silent for a moment.

"Sometimes I really don't understand," she asked, "why are you so interested in an ordinary person?

Zhang Jiahao sighed faintly: "That was before. ”

"Before?"

"At that time, I didn't know Yang Zhen's identity. ”

"His identity?"

"He is Su Ziqing's fiancé. This marriage was personally engaged by Sunan. I also learned about it recently, although I don't know why Sunan would order an ordinary person to be her daughter's husband, but ......"

Zhang Jiahao turned around slowly, his eyes hit the black shadow's face like cold lightning, and he said word by word:

"Yang Zhen must die. ”

The tone was cold and terrifying, as if Yama was pronouncing the sentence of the Yin Division. The black shadow was silent for a long time before asking:

"Why? Just because of Su Ziqing? I can't think of what golden boy and jade girl even you believe in, what kind of marriage is predestined, don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Zhang Jiahao raised his head and looked at each other faintly.

"I like Su Ziqing. He reminded softly.

"I know," said the Shadow, "but she doesn't necessarily like you. ”

"I was the only one who stayed with her. Zhang Jiahao said again.

The black shadow sneered: "I didn't expect the heir of the Zhang family to be a dead child." ”

Zhang Jiahao ignored her, and said again after a while: "You are here to preach to me?"

"No," said the Shadow, "I just think you're ridiculous. Although I don't know Su Ziqing, I can also see that she is a person, only she will want what she likes, and if she doesn't like it, even if you are with her for a thousand years or ten thousand years, it is useless. ”

"You don't understand. Zhang Jiahao shook his head slowly, his voice as low as a whisper, "I have to marry her." ”

In the darkness, the figure seemed stunned.

"Must ...... Marry?" she repeated softly, as if she had heard something unbelievable.

Is there anything deeper in this?

Zhang Jiahao's face suddenly sank, and his tone suddenly became irritable:

"It's not for you to ask, don't forget who you are!"

“......”

"I'll just ask you: You can't do Yang Zhen's business, and if you can't do it, I'll find someone else! As for the consequences, you know. ”

The shadow didn't answer, and the smell of gunpowder jumped in the air, and it faintly intensified, but it eventually vanished.

"Promise you something, and I'll do it well. "But I hope that what you promised me will be done." ”

Zhang Jiahao gently tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled slyly.

"Rest assured. He said, "I'll help you get back to the Ghost Realm." ”

The shadow said no more, bowed politely, and began to gradually disappear into the darkness.
