In the next two days, I went to work as usual, but I had to curry favor with Ye Dingxi every night, and it was not easy to coax him to compromise with me.

Three monks!

Hohoo.

I hummed a little tune and jumped and jumped to get home.

"One monk has no water to drink, two monks have no water to drink, three monks have no water to drink, no water to drink......"

"Auntie......"

The delicate voice came from the river.

I stopped and looked at the dazzling gold in the middle of the river.

"Seventeen, it's you!"

Since feeding Seventeen two White Jade Pills that day, his injuries have improved, but I have seen him several times since then, but I can no longer transform into a human form, and I don't know why.

"Auntie...... Seventeen miss you very much...... "Although it is not humanoid, the delicate and silky voice is unchanged at all.

I lay on my stomach by the river, broke up the steamed buns I had brought back from Meng Po and threw them into the river.

Originally, when feeding the fish like this, many small fish at the bottom of the river would swim up, but at this moment, the seventeenth fish prince was here, and those fish sank under the water, and they didn't dare to approach even if their saliva was gluttonous.

Seventeen didn't like to eat steamed buns either, so he let those small white crumbs sink and slowly melt into the river.

"Auntie, can Seventeen still take on human form?" he asked.

I wanted to shake my head, but after thinking about it, I comforted: "It should just be that the injury has not fully recovered, don't worry about it, Seventeen, maybe it will be fine in a few days." ”

"But ......"

Seventeen was very disappointed and said: "Seventeen can't change into a human form, so he can't go to his aunt...... Seventeen is what a fish looks like, and my aunt doesn't come to see Seventeen often, and Seventeen hates the way she looks like a fish!"

A fish that hates being a fish......

It's so childish!

I sneered, "Fool, I'm a ghost, and I don't hate myself for being a ghost, what's wrong with a fish, how comfortable it is to swim around, and...... You are still the son of the Fish King, the next Fish King, this is a great honor!"

"Really?" Seventeen said softly, "Then if Seventeen succeeds the Fish King, is my aunt willing to stay by Seventeen's side?"

"I'm ......"

I patted the crumbs between my palms and shook my head, "I have a cat." ”

"Auntie......"

Seventeen's half-body came to the surface, and I saw tears in the fish's eyes: "Seventeen likes my aunt...... Auntie, don't be seventeen, okay......"

I was about to speak, but I heard a voice around me.

"Are you talking to the fish?!"

I turned my head suddenly, looked at the dark red gown, and the curly gou'er laughed dryly: "Hehe, Lao Cui!"

Cui Jue is a top veteran in the underworld, he has never seen anything strange, although it is rare for the underworld to become a living being, but it is not unique, so he didn't seem to be very surprised, but he just looked at seventeen or so many times.

"When will he be able to speak?"

"Uh......"

I recalled it carefully, but I couldn't remember it too clearly, so I could only answer vaguely: "About the time of the Middle Yuan." ”

"Why can you speak?" asked Lao Cui.

I have always had something in my heart, but I absolutely can't hide Lao Cui's eyes, thinking about it, I will explain how I lost a white jade pill into the Lechuan River, and later fed two white jade pills to Seventeen, and I have to explain it all.

Lao Cui was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and pointed to Seventeen: "You, you really fed a fish three white jade pills?!"

"Aang!"

I nodded.

Lao Cui shook his head again and again: "Leaning eastward, leaning eastward, Yan Jun is right, you are really a loser!"

"What's wrong?" I pouted, displeased.

Lao Cui said again: "Do you know that one white jade pill can help mortals cultivate, and three pills, mortals can fly to immortals, this is the best elixir!"

"Really?"

I was immediately annoyed in my heart, and I stepped forward and asked, "Old Hades, do you still have goods?"

Lao Cui was so angry that his beard turned up on his forehead, and he took a few breaths before calming down slightly.

"You turned a fish into a demon spirit, and now you feed two white jade pills, do you know what will happen to it?" he asked.

I shook my head: "I don't know, you can tell me." ”

"I don't know!"

Lao Cui threw his sleeves angrily: "It's because I don't know the consequences that I'm in a hurry, there has never been a living creature in the underworld who can get the white jade pill, let alone ......"

Three!

I filled this sentence for him in my heart, and glanced at the seventeen who was looking at me and Lao Cui.

"What's wrong with you?"

At that time, I was still worried that Seventeen's body would not be able to eat Bai Yudan.

Fortunately, Seventeen just shook his head: "Auntie, Seventeen has no other reaction except for a hot stomach, but every time Seventeen wants to change into a human form, he never succeeds." ”

I looked at Lao Cui again and signaled to him with a look of "Look, this is the reaction so far".

Lao Cui settled down at this time, looked at Seventeen carefully, and after observing it several times, he also took it out of the water, and carefully looked at it from the mouth to the tail of the fish.

Poof.

I couldn't help but feel a little distressed when I saw Seventeen being thrown back into the water by Lao Cui.

What a delicate mermaid, how can you throw it so hard!

Lao Cui didn't care about my expression, and said coldly: "Let's observe first, if this is the ...... Seventeen, if you really condense the demon element, I have to make other arrangements. ”

Demon Yuan?!

I was stunned for a moment.

"Isn't that something that can only be condensed by thousands of years of goblins?"

In our underworld, it is extremely rare to meet the spirit of the goblin with the demon element, because those guys have a long lifespan, second only to the gods and Buddhas in the city for thirty-three days, as well as the backbone of the underworld, even I, a hundred-year-old ghost, are beyond my reach.

"Hmph. ”

Lao Cui snorted coldly: "Three white jade pills, if you can't condense a demon element, the qualifications of the fish prince you said will be average." ”

Poof!

Seventeen jumped out of a splash and looked at me with some excitement: "Auntie, Seventeen will definitely work hard!"

"Okay......"

I couldn't laugh or cry.

Saying goodbye to Seventeen, Lao Cui sent me back to the courtyard.

On the way, he suddenly mentioned the matter of Ye Dingxi's female ghost errand, which made me extra careful.

"Xiao Hei has already replied to me, that Xiao Yezi is a female ghost in the internship period, so she didn't record it in the roster of inferior ghosts, but her identity ...... I'm still a little reassured. ”

"Lao Cui, do you think that my nightmare may have something to do with Xiao Yezi?"

"You think so too?!"

Lao Cui looked at me with some surprise.

I silently said in my heart: Of course I don't think so, it's just that I know you too well.

"That's right!"

I nodded, and said vaguely: "You see, I've been in the underworld for so many years, and I've never encountered such a nightmare, but since I met Xiao Yezi, I fell into a dream within a few months, if it wasn't for Seventeen breaking in and destroying the dream, I almost couldn't come out, I would naturally be more alert." ”

"Yes, I've been thinking about it these days, and I always feel that there must be something wrong with the ghost around you. ”

Lao Cui said with a serious expression: "It seems that this little leaf still has to arrange for Xiao Hei to investigate it well." ”
