Yixin Pavilion, Eugene Office.

Eugene was looking out at the bustling scene through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, but at this time he was especially focused on the 30-story tall building on the east side of City B, gently stroking his curled white beard, and across from him from a delicate desk, a young man was slightly bowing his head and saying something to Eugene, this person was Eugene's youngest son, Eustace.

"Father, let's cut down those basement businesses, I have a bad feeling that sooner or later we will plant on this. ”

"Hmph!" Eugene turned his head angrily and stared at Eustace in front of him, the wrinkles on his forehead were like cracked earth, and his eyes were wide and round, as if with a little more strength, the pair of white eyes would fall off.

"Tell me about you, if we hadn't relied on these businesses, would we have been able to fight against that guy in the east? Really, since you grew up, you don't know how all the cultivation elixirs came from? If it weren't for the half of the sky that your father and I have laid down over the years, would you have been able to improve so quickly? Now you are good, dare to teach you a lesson in turn. ”

"No, father, my son is really thinking about our family's good, I looked at the women and children underground, and thought of selling them to those unclean places or... I'm just..."

"You can do whatever you want, what does their life and death have to do with us, a group of low-level human beings, how can they be compared with our ghosts! I, I can see it, you are a useless, incompetent waste, look at your brother, what he has contributed to our family, thanks to his proposal, we have directly doubled our income after doing the arms business. ”

"But it's all wrong!" Eustace exclaimed.

"Oh, my son, you are still too naïve, how can you have such childish thoughts? Eugene's face flushed with anger, and he stomped his foot and pointed at Eustace, spitting droplets from his mouth.

"Father, say whatever you want, but please don't talk about my mother, she has been dead for a long time. Eustace looked up and stared at Eugene with a grim expression.

"Hmph, what, do you want to kill your Lao Tzu like this or what? I just said what's the matter, if you don't accept it, just learn more like your brother and learn from other people's business minds, and see how to kill Wantong Pavilion." ”

Just as Eustace wanted to open his mouth to refute, Eustace suddenly opened the door and walked in, he was wearing a bright red dress, a blue tie was straight, and his sharp eyebrows swept Eustace who was standing aside, and he smiled contemptuously, and then kicked Eustace far away, and walked forward with light steps and said to Eugin:

"Father, you first dissipate your anger, what's there to be angry with this useless waste, by the way, I'll tell you good news, today my little brother caught a female ghost with clear eyebrows outside, I see that father you are a little tired in the past two days, presumably you must be overworked, no, I let this female ghost dress up in the room, just waiting to serve you." ”

Eustace said slowly, and after Eugene heard this, the wrinkles on his brows gradually eased, and then he smiled fiercely: "It's worthy of my proud son, there is always a way to make your father happy, go, take me to see." ”

"Okay. ”

Eustace looked up at Eustace who was standing aside with contempt, and said two words softly, although the voice was small, but Eustace still recognized the meaning of these two words from the shape of his mouth.

"Waste. ”

"Father, please. Eusekins opened the snow-white door behind him very gentlemanly for Eugene, and after Eugene was the first to walk out of the door, he glanced at his listless brother in the corner again, laughed, and then slammed the door shut.

Eustace's upper lip wrapped tightly around his lower lip, and his hand clenched and clenched. He stood there silent for a long time, and finally, he finally sighed helplessly and said, "It seems that this family really can't stay anymore." ”

At this time, Eustace's eyes became very determined, he had long been fed up with the shameless behavior of his father Eugene and his brother Euskins, he really hoped that they would stop the stupid and scoundrel behavior they were doing now, but no matter how hard he tried to persuade or even stop it, it was in vain, and their desires only became greater.

For this reason, he was often bullied and punched by his brother Euskins, his father also looked at him coldly, and his mother paid the price of his life because of their shamelessness.

Eustace walked slowly to the door, opened the white door behind him, and then, looking at the place full of evil thoughts, violence, and disgusting, he snorted and slammed the door shut.

"Eugene, Euskins, and this Yixin Pavilion that is comparable to hell, from now on, you go your way, I go my way, I have nothing to do with you!"

“......”

Not long after Eustace left the Yixin Pavilion, a mysterious person in a black robe appeared at the door of the Yixin Pavilion, he had dark red eyes and a delicate and handsome face.

"This is it. Tsukime muttered.

"Well, Yixin Pavilion, that's right. The Ice Lord said to Tsukime.

"If you look up, this building has to be 30 stories tall. But I didn't expect that behind this prosperity, there were some unsavory deeds. ”

"Where to go first?" the Ice Lord asked.

"In the basement, I'd like to make sure what Edward said is true. ”

"It's true, I can feel the atmosphere of fear, anger, despair coming from underground. ”

"Then let's go. After Tsukime finished speaking, he was about to start acting.

"How do you want to go?"

"I don't have any money, so I can only go around to the back of this building first, and then go in~"

After saying that, Tsukime slowly left the main entrance and walked towards the back of the building, and after a while, he came to the back of the building full of windows, aiming at a room, he lowered his body, raised his head, and the soles of his feet were slightly charged, and then he swooped into the two-story guest room like an arrow from a bow.

Bang.

Landed safely on the white tiles. Yuemu patted her head, her eyes swept to this somewhat small room, and she couldn't help but sigh: "This place is much worse than Wantong Pavilion, you see that this layout and utensils have been used for I don't know how many years." ”

"If it weren't for some shady dealings, they really wouldn't be able to compare to Wantong Pavilion!" the Ice Lord agreed.

After glancing at some adult items on the table next to the bed, Tsukimu was no longer interested. I went straight to the door.

"Ice Lord. Lend your strength to use. ”

"Ahh

"With my fire or brute force, it should be exposed. I think it's better not to. ”

"Okay, okay. I can't refute what you say. ”

At this time, a cloud of ice gas slowly wrapped around Tsukime's wrist, and then wandered to his palm, Tsukime put his hand on the doorknob, and in an instant, the doorknob was frozen into ice.

Let's click.

With a slight pull, the doorknob was easily pulled out.

"Ice abilities are just easy to use. After all, the words of the flame are too dazzling and eye-catching. Tsukime sighed.

"Hmph, what, little ghost, envy my ice ability!"

"Well, indeed. ”

"It's okay, once you're in the Far North, I'll have a way to give you the ability to ice as well. ”

"Huh? really. ”

Tsukime looked excited, although the ice lord was a little annoying to nag, but the help to him was indeed self-evident.

"No, what I said doesn't count when it doesn't count. ”

"Okay, then I'm counting on you!"

Tsukime pushed open the door, poked his head out, and found that he was okay and quietly walked down the hallway to the staircase.

Just as he was about to help the pole go downstairs, a strange and somewhat weak voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Hey, wait. ”

Yuemu turned his head and found that there was an old man squatting at the door of the staircase to clean up, he silently held the floor trowel for mopping, the messy and sparse white hair made him look even older, and his rickety waist was straightened by the hard rod supporting the floor wipe, and he stared at the young man in front of him who was wrapped in a black robe with his small eyes and said:

"Judging by your actions, you want to go to the basement, right?"

"Who is this old man? Tsukime thought to herself.

"You don't deny it, it seems I guessed right, but... There are special personnel guarding there, and you will suffer if you go it alone. The old man said.

"Thank you for the reminder. But I'm still going. ”

Seeing that the old man didn't have any suspicious actions, Yuemu hugged his fists and said with gratitude.

"Hey... Compared to your good deeds, what am I talking about, I have seen too many people like you who have tried to save people underground and paid with their lives for it. ”

Tsukime paused and said, "I think you're a good person, but why do you have to work in a place where it's right and wrong?"

"Hey, I've been in this Yixin Pavilion for almost 40 years, I don't want to leave, it's a pity, although I'm a ghost, but I can't absorb a little yin qi to improve my cultivation, so, my body is aging very fast, my body, I don't want to be seen anywhere, and it won't be long before I myself will be gone." ”

Seeing that the old man said lightly, although he couldn't see the expression of the moon eyes while wearing a mask, his eyelashes slowly lowered at this moment, he was feeling sad, it turned out that ghosts are also different, ghosts that can't absorb yin qi are equivalent to human beings who can't move around, and they are destined to be a lot worse than others since they came to this world, and if they want to make up for it, they have to put in many times more effort than others to just be able to reach the starting point of others.

After being stunned for a while, then looking at the old man, Yuemu said, "Believe me, I will definitely rescue the people below." After clenching his fists again, he no longer hesitated, turned around, and descended the stairs.

After he left, the old man held the iron rod of the floor wipe to support his body, and sat down again by the security door.

He let out a long sigh and said to himself: "I hope you can succeed, this Yixin Pavilion has long been a sinful and filthy abyss, if it ends here, then I will be blind to death." Then he looked up at the ceiling above him and said, "Wait, wife, it won't be long before I come to you." ”

He slowly closed his eyes, as if everything around him was no longer relevant to him.

“......”
