The news of "Vedic Dance" and the Red King Zhou Fangzun soon spread nearby. Hearing that the "Vedua" is recruiting, there is a steady stream of people who admire the prestige of the Red King or want to be blessed by the Red King. In stark contrast to the enthusiasm of those people was Zhou Fang's attitude, he seemed very cold, and he did not seem to have any interest in this qiē.

After being really annoyed by Izumo and Jushu's thoughts, he also met with those people. But every time he just glanced at it, he would yawn and say lazily, "Unqualified!" ”

Even the opportunity to test is not given to those who come to apply. A week later, the members of the Vedigoro still only had ten bunches and Izumo. Although they are not worried that the Vedigana will not be able to recruit people, they are also very annoyed by this negative attitude of guarding against work.

After seeing off the last conscripts of the day, Izumo sat down next to Zhou Fang. He habitually handed Zhou Fang a cigarette, and then took one in his mouth himself. Just as he was about to light it, Zhou Fang took the lead and lit the cigarette with the flame in his hand. Then he tapped himself in the same way, with his arms crossed to his sides, leaning his back against the couch and starting to smoke.

Ten Shu, who locked the door of the store, also walked over, looking at the two people under the smoke, Shishu smiled helplessly, and he couldn't help but mutter, "King, Izumo-san, you smoke too much." ”

Izumo shrugged and exaggerated, "Toshu, smoking is a man's romance!" You can't deprive us of this hobby! ”

Zhou Fang, as always, just snorted and counted as an answer.

Ten Bunches didn't really want them to quit smoking, and he didn't continue the topic. Instead, he sat opposite Zhou Fang, looked at Zhou Fang in confusion, and said, "King, don't you want to recruit new members?" ”

The circumference is too obvious, and it is difficult for them to ignore it.

Zhou Fang moved the cigarette to his mouth and said lightly, "Not really!" ”

"Zun, what are you thinking about?" Izumo also asked.

Zhou Fang looked up at the ceiling, the roof Izumo that had been damaged on the day he was elected king had been repaired, and it looked the same as usual. He gently exhaled the smoke ring and said nonchalantly, "I didn't think about anything." ”

Izumo squinted his eyes and looked at Zhou Fang, he obviously didn't believe Zhou Fang's words. He didn't ask any more questions, but a hint of loss flashed in his beautiful eyes. Zun always keeps everything in his heart, although he knows that it has something to do with Zun's personality. But more often than not, he hoped that Zun could rely on him more. He didn't want to be just protected by Zun, he wanted to be able to be a power of Zun.

Ten bundles did not miss Izumo's fleeting loss, he and Izumo were attracted to the same person, so naturally they had the same troubles. What Izumo worries about is exactly what he worries. However, Shishu is very optimistic, for him, as long as he can follow Zhou Fang's side, it is a great honor. He was convinced that one day, his king would appear before him that only he could see.

And he's going to keep working hard for that day.

"Well... Hungry! Shishu smiled and broke the momentary awkward atmosphere that lingered between the three of them, he held his face in his hands and leaned in front of Zhou Fang like a coquette, and the breath he exhaled even sprayed on Zhou Fang's face, "King, I want to eat hot pot today." ”

Zhou Fang felt a little itchy on his face, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, but his face was still cool without too many expressions, "Whatever you want." ”

Izumo scooped the ashtray next to him and extinguished the smoke before handing it to Zhou Fang, he looked at the ten bunches and said with some annoyance, "The kitchen doesn't prepare the ingredients for hot pot, do you want to go out and buy them temporarily?" ”

"No need!" Shishu stood up, grabbed the two of them left and right, and smiled brightly, "A rare opportunity, let's go out to eat." ”

Zhou Fang still looks like "whatever you want", Izumo is busy dealing with the group of applicants today, and he doesn't want to prepare dinner anymore. I agreed without hesitation.

The early autumn night was a little cold, and when I walked out of Homra and couldn't help but shrink my neck after wearing only ten bunches of a thin gown. Seeing this, Zhou Fang quietly opened the holy area, and the faint red light surrounded the ten beams and Izumo. The original coldness disappeared, and only a faint warmth continued to spread throughout the body.

“king。” Shishu suddenly hugged Zhou Fang's waist again, smiling innocently, "I really like king the most." ”

"Ten bunches, let go!" Zhou Fang said in a low voice.

"King's body is so warm, I don't want to let go for the rest of my life!" Ten bundles wrapped around Zhou Fang's waist and said willful words like a child.

Zhou Fang sighed, he suddenly thought of Anna. That child, does he want to go and see her?

"It's already warm in the sanctuary." Zhou Fang's voice was lower than just now, and he obviously looked vicious, but in the eyes of Izumo and Shishu, it was more like a concern that was not good at words.

It's rare to be able to play tricks on Zun, and such a fun thing Izumo naturally has to get a kick.

"Zun, I'm so cold!" Izumo deliberately pretended to be cold and shivering, took the opportunity to hug Zhou Fang's other waist, and said in a strange tone, "My king, please come and warm me too!" ”

These two guys!!

Zhou Fang sneered, the flames on his body suddenly became scorching, and he suddenly bit the word very hard when he spoke, "Cold, right?" All right! I'll let you heat up! ”

Wow!! After being burned by the flames that suddenly became hot, Izumo and Jushu had to let go.

"King is too much."

"yes, that's too much!"

Zhou Fang ignored the two and continued to move forward alone. However, the faint red light always surrounded the two of them.

Ten bunches and Izumo looked at each other and smiled, and they accepted it when they saw it. If they really angered their irascible king, they were the ones who were reluctant to do so in the end. The two quickly caught up with Zhou Fang, stood beside Zhou Fang on the left and right, and walked side by side with Zhou Fang to the hot pot restaurant.

In the moonlight, the elongated shadows of the three overlapped closely...

"Hmm! Eat so much! Shishu hugged his stomach and said contentedly, "The hot pot in that hot pot restaurant is really delicious!" ”

Izumo was also very satisfied with the shop, "Then we'll eat together next time." ”

"Yes, yes!" Shishu agreed very happily, and then looked at Zhou Fang who was walking at the back with an expectant expression, "King, what about you?" Do you like it? ”

"Not bad."

For Zhou Fang, this is already a compliment.

"Then make an appointment, next time the three of us will eat together."

When the three of them returned to Homra, they saw a young man standing at the door of Homra. The young man's long black hair was tied into a ponytail and he wore a long trench coat, and he looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old.

When he saw Zhou Fang, the boy immediately ran to his side.

Jushu and Izumo thought that the boy also wanted to join the Vedic dancers, and were about to ask him to come tomorrow but were stopped by Zhou Wei.

The young man in front of him was the Night Sword God Dog Lang, although he was a little immature compared to him four years later, Zhou Fang still recognized him at a glance. If he's not mistaken, Miwa Yiyan should still be alive by now. As a courtier of the current Colorless King, what is this black dog doing here? Despite the doubts in his heart, Zhou Fang didn't speak, he just looked at Gou Lang coolly, waiting for him to speak.

"His Royal Highness the Red King, excuse me!" Gou Lang bent down at Zhou Fang very politely, and continued with a gentle and polite attitude, "Below is the seventh king, the colorless king, the retainer of Lord Miwa Yiyan, the night sword god Gou Lang. I have delivered a word to you with the words of the three ** people of the host! ”

Zhou Fang remembered that he had no relationship with Sanlun Yiyan before, but now Sanlun Yiyan took the initiative to find him. Thinking of his language ability, Zhou Fang guessed that the person had probably discovered something.

"What?"

"The three ** people asked me to tell His Royal Highness the Red King: The gears of fate will change due to your changes, and it is up to you to choose whether it is good or bad."

"That's right!" Zhou Fang smiled meaninglessly, didn't say anything more, bypassed Gou Lang and walked directly into Homra.

"Honor, wait... Wait......" Realizing what Zhou Fang was going to do, Izumo hurriedly called Zhou Fang, "Go through the front door for me..."

It's a pity that he was still late, and Zhou Fang walked in directly from the wall.

Izumo let out a scream, and it seemed that he was going to spend a lot of money again.

"Mr. Night Blade, is it?" Shishu greeted Gou Lang gently, "If you don't mind, can you go and sit inside?" The words of the Lord of the Three Rounds and One Word, our king has already remembered it, and asked Mr. Night Knife to thank him on his behalf. ”

"I will! Since the task of the three ** people has been completed, they will leave first. ”

With that, he disappeared into the night.

Izumo and Toshu glanced at each other, and their eyes were worried. What does that mean exactly? It always feels like something is about to happen.

The prophecy of the three rounds and one word Zhou Fang did not take it to heart, and the established fate would change, which was a matter of course for Zhou Fang. If nothing can be changed, then his rebirth has no meaning.

After returning to the Homra bar, Jushu and Izumo kept looking at him with expressions that were both speechless and stopping.

Zhou Fang knew what they wanted to ask, and he didn't mean to hide anything from them. It's just that this kind of thing is too cumbersome to explain, so I just don't say anything.

"I'm sleepy." Zhou Fang yawned, then walked upstairs alone, and when he reached the staircase, he suddenly stopped, turned his back to Izumo and Toshu and said, "I won't have anything." ”

If you guarantee it like this, the two of them should be able to rest assured.

Toshu and Izumo were defeated to their king again.

"Zun that guy, since you know that we are worried, hurry up and tell us everything!" Izumo looked at the wall that had been burned by Zhou Fang and complained, "What a king who will cause trouble." ”

"Well, since King said it's okay, then it must be okay!" Shishu smiled easily, but when he felt the cold wind that kept blowing inside, he unconsciously showed a distressed expression, "If you sleep on the sofa like this, you will probably catch a cold!" I'm up and sleeping with King! There's no way, it's entirely King's responsibility to not be able to sleep on the sofa, so King is responsible. ”

"Hey, Ten Bunches."

Izumo tried to stop Jushu, but the latter was nowhere to be seen. Izumo couldn't help but have a black line, and he didn't usually move so fast. That guy obviously wanted to take advantage of Zun. The worship of the Ten Bundles of Venerable is close to pathology, and what I really want to say has probably become the so-called love. But neither Shishu himself nor Zhou Fang realized this, and Izumo didn't plan to debunk it, and some things only made sense if they discovered it themselves.

Izumo lit himself another cigarette, and he looked at the broken wall with some weakness. It's very unscientific to let people come to repair in the middle of the night, and in order to prevent the treasured wine in the store from being stolen, Izumo has to resign himself to staying downstairs.

The next day, at dawn, Homra was again surrounded by people who had come to apply. Izumo hadn't closed his eyes for almost the night, and now he was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes, and his mood was even worse when he was so noisy by this group of people.

Izumo flicked the halfway cigarette he smoked, and the ash flew out like flames. The originally noisy crowd instantly quieted down, and Izumo looked at these recruits with a smile, "I'm sorry, but the Homra bar is going to be renovated today, so please go back." ”

Although everyone was very dissatisfied, they were afraid of the power of the Red King and Izumo, so they had to disperse.

For just a moment, Homra was quiet again. Izumo's headache eased a bit, and he finally took another puff on his cigarette, thinking that the maintenance company should also go to work. Scooping out her phone and just as she was about to call the repair company, a mature woman walked in.

"Excuse me, does Zhou Fangzun live here?" The woman walked up to Izumo and asked softly. Because he was facing away from Izumo, he didn't see Izumo clearly.

Izumo heard the woman's voice, he hung up the call, turned to look at the woman and said, "Sister Suiba, why are you here?" ”

The woman's name is Hobo Kushina, and she was the homeroom teacher of Zhou Fang's high school days. Izumo had known Zhou Fang since he was a high school student, so he had met Hobo Kushina a few times.

"Mr. Kusanagi?" Kutena Hobo was also surprised to see Izumo, and she quickly calmed down and asked Izumo politely, "I heard that Zhou Fang became the King of the Red." He's here, right? ”

"Hmm." Izumo nodded, Kushina Hobo was a good teacher for Zhou Fang, and Izumo had a very good impression of him, "Zun is still sleeping upstairs." Sister Suibo, do you have something to look for him? Why don't you sit back and I'll wake him up!" ”

"There's something I want to ask him for!" Suibo's expression looked a little uncomfortable, "It's okay, I can wait for him to wake up." ”

Izumo had been observing Hona's expression since just now, and it seemed that she was really in trouble.

"It's time for Zun to get up!" Izumo asked Hoba to sit on the sofa, poured her another glass of water, and then went upstairs to call Zhou Fang. He just walked into Zhou Fang's room, and saw Shishu tightly rubbing Zhou Fang's waist and sleeping next to him. The two of them slept soundly, and the expressions on their faces were very gentle. The sun shines on them, and it looks very beautiful. It's a little unbearable to wake them up.

For a moment, Izumo was even a little jealous.

"Honor, honor!" Walking to the bed, Izumo shook his guard and tried to wake him up, "Wake up, there's a guest coming!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhou Fang snorted, turned over and continued to sleep, "That kind of thing is okay whatever." Izumo, don't disturb my sleep. ”

Izumo didn't give up, his hand rubbed around Zhou Fang's head like a mischief, "It's Sister Suiba who came to you." ”

Hearing Suibo's name, Zhou Fang immediately fell asleep, and in his previous life, Suibo's teacher came to him to ask him to take care of Anna. This time it happened earlier than the previous life, is this also the effect of his rebirth?!

"Izumo, if you go and sue Mr. Sù, I'll go down immediately."

"I see!"

Five minutes later, Zhou Fang walked down from the upper floor. He was followed by ten bundles that were not yet fully awake. Zhou Fang sat directly opposite Suibo, without any extra greetings, he went straight to the road, "Teacher, do you have anything to do?" ”

Although he still looks lazy, his eyes are a little more serious.

Suibo looked at his former students, although many teachers in the school didn't like Zhou Fang, Suibo always believed that Zhou Fang was a good person. She knew that if she asked Zhou Fang for help, Zhou Fang would still help although he would be troublesome. However, she didn't want to involve her beloved students in these troubles.

Seeing that Suibo didn't speak, Zhou Fang's voice raised again, "Teacher, I'm not a patient person. ”

Really, it's so awkward to even care about people. Izumo smiled and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"Sister Suibo." Izumo spoke softly, always feeling that if he continued like this, he wouldn't say anything at all, "You don't need to be polite to us, if there's anything we can help with, just say it." ”

After much hesitation, Spike finally made up his mind. Isn't she here because she trusts her students to help her? After sorting out her thoughts a little, she said to Zhou Fang, "Classmate Zhou Fang, I have a request!" I hope you can help me do it! ”

Zhou Fang knew that Suibo was going to talk about Anna, thinking of the little girl who always held his hand for the first time, and thinking that he could no longer let her see the warm red in his previous life, Zhou Fang felt a sense of guilt.

"Hmm." He nodded, with the confidence he had, "Whatever it is, what I promise will be done." ”

After receiving Zhou Fang's assurance, Suibo handed Zhou Fang a photo of a little girl about seven years old with silver hair. Zhou Fang looked at the photo, his finger was on the girl's face in the photo, and he read the girl's name in his heart: Anna.

"She is my niece Anna, and I hope that Zhou Fang can help me rescue her."
