Stopping in front of the door of a guest room for a moment, Wang Er Mazi rang the doorbell twice, and after a while, the door opened gently, and a slender figure appeared inside.

Sister Lan looked a little messy, obviously she had just woken up, but even in this unkempt state, she was still quite beautiful.

Scratching her fluffy hair a little irritably, Sister Lan glared at Wang Er Mazi and said, "You are in a hurry to reincarnate, right?" Do you know what time it is! Not even six o'clock! ”

Wang Er Mazi said righteously: "Going to bed early and getting up early is good for your health, Sister Lan, sleeping until six o'clock is enough." ”

"I usually don't wake up until noon!" Sister Lan couldn't help but yell.

"I'm Sister Lan who has something serious to talk to you about, hehe."

"It's better to be like this, otherwise the old lady won't mind giving you a kick on the way to reincarnation!"

As soon as Sister Lan gritted her teeth and said, Wang Er Mazi dodged away - pushed me standing behind him to the front.

Looking at Sister Lan's confused expression, I also raised my hand a little embarrassed and said, "Hi, morning." ”

“…… Little dirt buns? ”

"Can't you call me by name?" I sighed helplessly.

Sister Lan frowned and swept me up and down, her beautiful eyes full of doubt.

"What are you doing here?"

I looked directly into Sister Lan's eyes and said, "I have changed my mind, Sister Lan, I want to go with you to pick up that private job of slaying demons." ”

“…… Come in and say. ”

After a long time, Sister Lan stepped aside and let me and Wang Ermazi into the house.

Then, when I entered the house, I found that this room was worthy of a five-star hotel room, and the word "golden splendor" was probably used for this kind of place.

This space alone would have to be hundreds of square meters, and there would be more than just one room.

"You live in this place by yourself?"

Sister Lan was only wearing thin underwear when she came out before, but this time she was conscious and realized that something was wrong, so she put on a velvet nightgown.

"Nonsense, or would I still live with you." Sister Lan gave me a blank look, and then made herself a pot of coffee.

I sat on the sofa with Wang Er Mazi, looked at the tall Sister Lan drinking coffee with a stinky face, and said silently, "I want to drink it too." ”

"Pour it yourself." After glancing at me, Sister Lan pushed the coffee pot on the table towards me, and then gracefully lifted Erlang's legs. Those legs are really long, at least more than 1.2 meters.

"Ouch, tsk, Brother Jun, try it, this coffee is definitely ground by yourself, and it tastes different from instant coffee!"

I poured myself a bite and felt the taste was no different.

"I can't taste it, it's like instant coffee." I smacked my lips, and I didn't taste the taste of ground coffee that Wang Er Mazi said for a long time.

"Let's just say you're a hillbilly and don't know anything." Wang Er Mazi tilted his head proudly, if he didn't know that this pot was brewing coffee, I would have thought that this kid was drinking holy water.

Sister Lan glanced at Wang Ermazi lightly and said, "It's instant coffee, and the old lady doesn't have the patience to grind coffee beans." ”

"Ahem! Ahem......"

Wang Er Mazi choked, choking with a red face and a thick neck. I gave him a middle finger with contempt.

After turning her head to look at me for a long time, Sister Lan said, "Anyway, it seems that you have changed your mind now?" ”

"Well, can you tell me more about this?"

Sister Lan didn't answer me immediately, and only said slowly after a long time: "You yourself know that you can't control the timing of the prophetic dream, right?" ”

“…… Yes. ”

Sister Lan didn't speak, drank the coffee in her hand, and then gently put it back on the table.

"In other words, you may or may not be able to have another prophetic dream."

"Yes."

Sister Lan gently rubbed her temples, and then said, "So, I refuse to do this task with you. ”

I was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Wang Er Mazi - sure enough, this kid reacted several times more violently than me, and said excitedly: "Sister Lan! Brother Jun, I finally persuaded him, and I am embarrassed for you to do this! In this Qingyun Town, I can't be honest, I can't find a more suitable auxiliary candidate than Brother Jun! ”

Sister Lan said leisurely: "Then you are the problem, besides, even if you can't find someone, I'll go by myself." ”

"But what you said yourself, it's dangerous for you to go alone!" Wang Er Mazi scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, looking like he was racking his brains to think of ways to persuade Sister Lan.

"It's dangerous, but I can't just take a rookie to death."

After that, Sister Lan also looked at me.

"Little soil bun, I don't know what you want, but I have to tell you, now I have figured it out too. If you can't have a normal prophetic dream and find out the demon spirit, taking you there will only damage my yin virtue. ”

"Even if I volunteer?" I looked directly at Sister Lan and couldn't help but grit my teeth.

“…… Voluntary? Didn't you be persuaded by this kid? ”

I nodded lightly and said, "It's important to me, to put it bluntly, I need money now, lots and lots of money...... Even if I die, I won't be held responsible, you let me try, okay? ”

Sister Lan stopped talking, lowered her eyes, and looked thoughtful.

"I think you know better than me about monsters, if you can't find a demon spirit, even if you have the ability to go through the sky, don't want to bargain in front of them. If I go with you, I'll have more possibilities to find the spirits. ”

Sister Lan looked directly at me, her eyes a little sharp. It's very different from yesterday.

"Little earth bun, do you think the exorcism is a joke? Possibility? How can you not think about the outcome when you fail. ”

"The big deal is death, and I'm responsible for myself."

As soon as the words fell, Sister Lan also had a cold expression, and scolded angrily: "Don't talk to me about that kind of irresponsible words!" If you think your life is cheap, forget it, the old lady hasn't lived enough! And have you considered the person who commissioned this! ”

I was directly stunned by Sister Lan, and I was immediately speechless.

"The reason why I went to you was because I thought you had the ability to ensure that you could find the demon spirit, but now you don't know how to shit, but you just relied on luck to have a prophetic dream to find out the location of the demon spirit, you kid is playing with human life?"

I silently lowered my head and clenched my fist. I felt very aggrieved, but I also knew that Sister Lan didn't say anything wrong, what she said was right, completely correct.

But it is precisely because of this that I feel more aggrieved.

Could it be that I can't find a way to save Xiaoxiao's heart at all?

"I don't know why you kid is in need of money, but ...... Let's talk about how much money you need. ”

I was immersed in sadness, and when I heard Sister Lan say this, I couldn't help but raise my head and look at her in a daze.

Sister Lan seemed to be a little embarrassed by me, frowned and moved her face, blushing slightly and said, "If it's money I can afford, I'll lend you this money first." ”

“…… Yes? But, but ......"

Sister Lan waved her hand and said, "It's nothing good, I'm different from you, my mother has money." ”

Looking at Sister Lan's smug face, I couldn't help but look at her a little speechlessly.

"Being able to know a little strange person like you can be regarded as marriage in a sense...... So, you just say how much you need. ”

“…… Three hundred thousand. ”

I gritted my teeth and said the amount of money I needed to make a down payment on the house.

The time that made me feel tormented passed slowly, and after a while, Sister Lan said: "Yes, I will lend you this money, and you can take it to the emergency." ”

“…… Just because of the so-called fate, you are willing to lend me so much money? ”

I looked at Sister Lan in disbelief, and found that I couldn't understand this woman for a while.

"That's not for sure, little soil bun, don't underestimate this so-called fate...... Hehe, anyway, I won't say anything more, you can look at the money and pay it back. ”

"Looking at it?"

"That's right." Sister Lan nodded, then looked at me and said, "If you become a demon slayer in the future, then we will meet sooner or later, and you will return the money to me at that time." And you, if you finally choose to be an ordinary person...... Think of it as my compensation for you. ”

I felt a little speechless, and it took me a while before I spoke, "You don't owe me anything, do you?" Why do you want to compensate me......"

"Because I once owed a favor to a burial master." Sister Lan said it as a matter of course.

"Just because of this? It doesn't have anything to do with me, does it? ”

A flash of gloom flashed in Sister Lan's eyes, and she whispered, "That's not the case...... The underground burial master has left this world...... And his last wish is that I will return this favor to other burial masters who have the same tragic fate as him. ”

After that, Sister Lan stood up and walked to my side, patted me lightly on the shoulder, and said, "Little Tu Baozi, leave your bank card, I will transfer the money to your account tomorrow." And that's the end of your relationship with me...... You didn't say anything about the demon slayer. ”

"......" I opened my mouth, but I felt my throat was so blocked that I didn't know what to say.

"Okay, you go back, the old lady still has to sleep in the cage...... Damn, wake me up at five o'clock in the morning, it's really against you......"

Seeing Sister Lan scolding and walking towards the soft big bed, Wang Er Mazi also urged me to put the bank card on the coffee table, and hurriedly pulled me out of the guest room.

When leaving, I watched Sister Lan lie back on the soft bed through the crack in the door, but I don't know why, the figure of Sister Lan seen from this angle looked extremely tired and haggard.

It occurred to me that maybe she hadn't been able to sleep all night, just like me. We're struggling with different things, but maybe we're just as insomnia.

On the way back, in the car, Wang Er Mazi kept praising Sister Lan's atmosphere, and said that with this money, he could solve the matter with Xiaoxiao.

It's just that, just like at the beginning, when Wang Er Mazi talked about my marriage with Xiaoxiao, his expression still didn't seem natural.

It's more like you're pandering to my emotions than you're genuinely happy for me.

But now, I don't feel happy at all, but very unhappy.

I'm not a saint, and I haven't had any higher education since I was a child.

However, I still understand the truth that other people's things cannot be taken for nothing.

"Mazi, Sister Lan is going to take over the private work of killing demons by herself, it's very dangerous, right?"

"Huh?"

Wang Ermazi, who had been chattering with me about this and that, heard me ask, and was stunned for a moment before replying: "Yes, from the very beginning of that job, Sister Lan said that it was almost impossible for her to do it alone." ”
