The exam officially begins.

As soon as the light of the Yin-Yang Mirror flashed, a phantom appeared in front of everyone out of thin air.

The floating words are like small tadpoles, slowly converging into one topic after another.

I looked at the phantom figure moving with the wind, and the palm of the hand holding the pen unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.

Sure enough, it's hard.

Lao Cui stood next to the Yin-Yang Mirror, his serious gaze swept over the audience, and he focused on a few ghosts for a moment.

When he looked at me, a smile flashed out of the corner of his eye.

I glared at him, burying my head in the book.

Ye Dingxi said that when children in the world take exams, even if they can't answer the questions, they have to fill in the paper, and the answer is also a probability, and there is always a chance to get it right.

Soon, the exam was more than halfway through.

Suddenly, I felt a wave of low-pressure radiation coming from not far behind me, getting closer and closer, getting closer and ......

"Lord Zhong. ”

Lao Cui suddenly spoke.

I chuckled in my heart, realizing that it was the Hell Demon King Zhong Kui who was standing behind me at this moment, and the shadow of half of my body was tightly covering me!

It's an invisible pressure.

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva in my throat, and the shaky pen poked at the paper roll crookedly, leaving small black dots like cinders.

On the other side, Lao Cui had already walked off the field and smiled at Zhong Kui.

"Haven't you been busy these two days? ”

Zhong Kui was silent for a while, and then a deep voice came.

"Well, come and have a look, in case the discipline in the exam room is not strict enough. ”

Scold.

I sneered in my heart, didn't he mean that he was afraid that Lao Cui would release water to me!

"Lord Zhong is too worried, please here, I have some matters in the yang world to discuss with you. Lao Cui was so good-natured that he raised his hand.

Zhong Kui bowed his head slightly, followed him to the front of the examination room, and did not forget to look back at me halfway.

The pupils of those eyes were like copper bells, and they made my heart furious.

Woowoo...... I'm scared.

I let go of the pen, wiped the cold sweat from my palm on my skirt, and looked in the direction of the big demon king from time to time, seeing that he was listening to Lao Cui intently, frowning for a while, shaking his head for a while, and paying attention to the things that Lao Cui mentioned was attracted, I was slightly relieved.

I don't have any idea of cheating, but I'm mentally qualified

It's not much better.

What I'm most afraid of in the underworld is the big demon king, as soon as he appears, even if he just stands behind me and watches me answer the questions, I will be so scared that my brain will be a mess and I can't write anything.

Fortunately, Lao Cui understands me, and he is still powerful enough at the critical moment.

Soon, half an hour passed.

Several invigilators put away the test papers in groups, and when it was my turn, it happened that the last one was Meng Ji's spotted leopard.

I glanced at it quickly, and several of the answers were different from mine, which made me even more nervous.

Ahead.

Lao Cui saw that the test papers were almost collected, so he patted Zhong Kui on the shoulder.

"Let's go, let's go and read the papers together. ”

"I'm busy. Zhong Kui refused.

Lao Cui smiled and said: "If you don't go, if you turn around and lean eastward, if you pass the customs, you should say that I release water, and I don't carry this pot." ”

"You have so much faith in that girl?"

Zhong Kui raised his eyebrows and said.

A few days ago, he also received a rumor that Xiang Dongyan had been preparing for the assessment, and he had indeed closed his doors, not only collecting test centers and past examination papers from several prefecture backbones, but also studying hard until dawn.

I don't know if it really has worked after preparing for these days.

Cui Jue said: "That girl is a little lazy on weekdays, but once she gets serious, she can't be underestimated." ”

"She was always taught by you. ”

Zhong Kui said, raised his feet and walked in the direction of the Yama Palace.

The place to mark the test papers is in the study of the old king of Hades, which is generally in charge of several civil officials of the prefecture, and Zhong Kui and Cui Jue can pass the examination.

Lao Cui hurriedly followed, half joking and half serious: "You, you are too restrained and serious, there will be so many ghosts in the underworld who are afraid of you, in fact, you don't have to be so indifferent to everyone, thinking about the things of the day and night, aren't you very enthusiastic." ”

Zhong Kui's footsteps paused, and the haze on his face became a little heavier.

"I just look at things, I don't look at people, and I don't look at faces. ”

Lao Cui smiled and said, "What do you mean, you also think that girl is beautiful?"

"You!"

Zhong Kui brushed his sleeves away.

At the end of the Lethe River.

When I returned to the yard, I felt exhausted, and drowsiness had crept up my eyelids, so heavy that I couldn't open my eyes.

The orange cat sat under the porch and waited for me, looking at his wife in a standard stone posture

Force.

I waved weakly at it, "Hello, I'm back." ”

"How?" it asked.

I sat on the stone bench and sighed, "About ...... Probably, perhaps, should...... No problem. ”

When answering the questions, I vaguely felt that it was very smooth, as if Ye Dingxi had asked me those questions, although the content was different, but the ideas for solving the questions were similar.

In addition to Zhong Kui, who affected my thinking when he first arrived, I also finished writing the volume under the sentinel in the later stage.

Passing, it should be fine, right?

I craned my neck in thought, not noticing that the orange cat had jumped into my arms.

"Now that you're done, don't think about it anymore. ”

He looked up and said to me, "This morning, Bai Ze has been here. ”

What?!!!

I was so shocked that I almost jumped on the spot.

"Bai Ze is coming to arrest you again?!Are you hurt?!Are you being beaten by it at home?!"

"Not really. ”

The orange cat was very calm: "That guy seems to be injured, although he broke through the protective seal I set up outside the hospital, but he didn't get any bargains." ”

"Say, does it recognize you as a mortal?" I asked worriedly.

The orange cat lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before he said: "Maybe he can see that there are two souls hidden in the cat's body, but because the soul of the orange cat coexists, it can't completely distinguish whether I am a human or a cat, and it is precisely because of this that it did not tell Zhong Kui the truth." ”

"You mean...... Is it hiding from Zhong Kui?"

I was surprised: "How is it possible? Bai Ze is Zhong Kui's mount, they are masters and servants!"

The orange cat chuckled: "Who told you that Bai Ze was born to recognize Zhong Kui?"

"Isn't it?" I wondered even more.

The orange cat shook his head: "Many years ago, Bai Ze's master was not Zhong Kui, it was only because the original owner suffered a catastrophe, and Bai Ze was also claimed by Zhong Kui because of the loss of memory. ”

"And there is such a secret? Why do you, the living beings of the yang world, know it, but I, the female ghost of the underworld, don't know it?!"

"In the underworld, there are ghosts and ghosts, and the light is bizarre. ”

The orange cat's voice was meaningful: "What you see in front of you, whether it is true or false, false or real, what you don't know is far more than you know." ”
