Chapter 1 Penglai Branch 1

In early autumn, there is still the smell of summer, only a little cooler in the early morning.

Zuo Leaning asked casually put on a short sleeve, stretched his waist, slowly paced to the door, and turned the sign of "resting" to "in business".

"Excuse me......"

Zuo Leaning asked just about to enter the house, and turned around when he heard the words, "Huh?" ”

The person who came was a yellow-haired boy, seventeen or eighteen years old, with his hands cramped clutching the hem of his clothes, "Zuo leaned and asked if Mr. Zuo is here?" ”

"I am." Leaning left and asked, "Come in and talk." ”

He made a pot of tea, put the teacup in front of the young man, leaned left and sat down on the other side, "Is there something wrong?" ”

The boy said eagerly, "I...... I would like to ask you to save someone. ”

"People?" Zuo asked and picked up the teacup, "Let's hear it." ”

"My name is Qiu Mei, and I ...... three years ago"

Qiu Mei is a thrush who strayed into the eagle's nest three years ago and was injured by the eagle clan, and finally escaped, but lost consciousness due to the injury. I thought I was going to die, but when I woke up, I found that I was saved by a human named Sun Xi, and under Sun Xi's care, Qiu Mei's injuries were getting better day by day.

The bloody hero saves the beauty routine, and the left-leaning question interrupted Qiu Mei, "How long did it take to heal?" ”

Qiu Mei thought for a while and said, "Hmm...... About four months. ”

"Nothing, you continue."

"Sun Xi is my benefactor, in order to repay the kindness, I have always stayed by his side and wanted to do something for him...... Sun Xi's wife's name is Fang Mingyan, and she was diagnosed with a terminal illness not long ago, Sun Xi loves her very much, borrowing money for her and running around to see a doctor......" Qiu Mei raised her head, "I want to fulfill Sun Xi's wish." ”

Leaning left and leaning back in the chair, "I can only treat small injuries and pains of demons, but monsters have strong resilience, and generally no demons come to see a doctor for small injuries, you are my first guest." ”

Qiu Mei tilted his head, not knowing what he was going to say.

"Even so, I can't break the rules, I don't take orders from humans here."

"I ...... But...... I've exhausted all methods. Qiu Mei cried with a sad face, "This is my last hope." ”

"I don't have the ability to challenge the book of life and death, and I advise you not to interfere." Leaning left asked, "Please go back." ”

"Mr. Zuo! Mr. Zuo! ”

Ignoring Qiu Mei's shout, he leaned left and walked straight to the back room, muttering to himself: "This Qiu Mei seems to have cultivated for at least three hundred years, how can he be more naΓ―ve than me." Demons can't interfere with humans, and besides, humans are bad.

An autumn rain and a cold, the rain lasted for five or six days, the temperature plummeted, and he rubbed his cold arms and prepared to go to the mall to buy thick clothes.

It stands to reason that cultivated demons are not afraid of the cold and heat of the four seasons, but Zuo Qian is an exception, and even more afraid of cold and heat than normal humans.

"What kind of clothes do you want to buy? Feel free to try it. ”

Avoiding the warm reception of the shopping guide, he leaned left and picked out a few ordinary long-sleeved and jackets, and pushed open the fitting room to prepare to try on clothes-

A woman in the fitting room was in a distorted position, curled up in a small space, with a frightened face, eyes that seemed to be about to pop out, blue lips, and a few strangulation marks on the exposed skin of her neck.

Leaning left asks: "......"

Silently closed the door of the fitting room, leaned left and grabbed two pieces of clothing and quickly checked out, and hugged the packaged bag into his arms, and then said to the shopping guide in front of him, "There is something broken in that fitting room." ”

"Huh? I'll take a look. ”

Leaning left asked, covering his ears and counting down, "three, two, one......"

"Ah!!h

Many people ran over when they heard the sound, and they were taken aback by surprise, and the scene was suddenly chaotic.

The police soon arrived, cordoned off the scene, and Zuo Leaning was interrogated for a long time before he was released.

When I got home, I should eat, sleep, and sleep, but it didn't affect the left-leaning question...... The premise is to ignore the words of the seven or eight men in sunglasses and suits outside the door.

A few luxury cars were parked on the side of the road, and the small town had never seen this kind of scene, and the surrounding neighbors were watching with their heads out, thinking that this young man who usually stayed at home owed usury and came to collect debts.

Zuo Leaning asked not long after his transformation, his cultivation was only a hundred years, and he was a real brother in the demon world, looking at the few people who exuded a powerful demonic aura in front of him, Zuo Leaning asked silently, "You guys...... Are you here to see a doctor? ”

One of the men in sunglasses stepped forward, "Mr. Zuo, our boss invites you to come over." ”

"Let's go, then." Zuo leaned and asked to put the keys and mobile phone in his pocket, quite aware of current affairs.

Several men in sunglasses looked at each other, led people into the car, leaned left and asked the way quietly, staring out the window and not knowing what they were thinking. The car turned around and drove into a dead end, and the man in sunglasses in the driver's seat didn't mean to brake, and hit the wall.

Strangely, there was a ripple on the wall, sucking the car in, and it was dark in front of him when he leaned left, but he quickly regained his eyesight and the car slowly stopped.

Leaning left and getting out of the car, the building complex in front of him is suspected to be a luxury community, and the overly delicate metal arch is embedded with two big characters, "Yao Shi".

"Yaoshi?" Zuo asked and muttered, "Demon City? So I'm in City A? ”

"Yes."

Zuo asked and sighed, "Remember to send me back to D City later." ”

When my father was still alive, I heard him mention the demon city, there are many monsters in the demon world, and their habits are different, in order to maintain the order of the demon world, there is a demon market.

The demon city is the rule of the demon world, and Zuo Leaning asked that he had a good impression of the demon city, but he really couldn't think of anything he had done.

Following a few people into the archway, the scenery in front of them changed, and it was not at all what I saw outside...... There are many shops on both sides of the road, and there are all kinds of shops that sell everything, and the monsters stand on the side of the street and shout hard, and the whole street is very lively and very down-to-earth.

Leaning left asked: "......" said that the rules of the demon world are good, which is clearly not a serious and calm painting style.

The man in sunglasses seemed to see the confusion of the left-leaning question, and coughed, "It's just developing a side hustle." ”

Zuo asked a nod in acceptance of this statement, and then asked, "What about your boss?"

"This way, please."

As they went deeper, the noise became smaller and smaller, and Zuo Leaning finally saw the buildings that conformed to the imaginary demon city - several ancient Chinese style buildings stood on the ground, roughly distributed in the shape of "mouth", and in front of them was a three-story small building, with a large open door, revealing valuable flower and bird screens.

Bypassing the screen, it is a pool of clear water, obviously it is autumn, but the lotus flowers in the pond are blooming luxuriantly, and the three corridors on the left, middle and right are erected on the water surface, connecting the two buildings before and after.

Left Leaning asked a few people through the central cloister and pushed the door into the building.

It should be some kind of spell, the space in the room is quite spacious, Zuo Leaned and sat down at a table, the beautiful maid immediately brought the brewed tea, and one of the men in sunglasses said, "Please Mr. Zuo wait a while, our boss will be there soon." ”

Zuo Leaned asked took a small sip of the teacup, and hummed casually, the tea in the Secret Demon City was really delicious.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Leaning left and turning his head, he saw a handsome guy in ancient costume with long hair walking in at the door.

Leaning Zuo asked and got up, and said politely, "I didn't have to wait long."

The person who came sat down opposite the left-leaning question and said, "Something happened in City D, and our boss rushed to negotiate early in the morning, so I will come forward today in place of our boss."

Left leaned and nodded, "Is there anything wrong with me?"

"I almost forgot to introduce myself, my name is Lan Yilan." Lan Yilan handed Zuo Lean a photo and said with a smile, "Do you know the person in the photo?" ”

The yellow hair smiled innocently, and leaned left to answer honestly: "Yes, you came to me for three weeks."

Lan Yilan smiled even brighter, "Can you tell me about this person's situation?" He was an important clue to a murder in City D, but is now missing. ”

"Missing?" Leaning left asked a little surprised.

"Hmm." Lan Yilan nodded, "Someone said he inquired about you before...... That's all I can tell you. ”

"Okay." Zuo asked to recount in detail what happened that day.

Lan Yilan thought thoughtfully, "...... There is such a story, which is a bit interesting. ”

"Any questions?"

"Hmm...... One more thing. Lan Yizhan touched his chin, "The murder of the Central Commercial Building in City C...... You're the discoverer. ”

Leaning left asked, nodding.

"Were there any anomalies before that? For example, I feel a demonic aura or something. ”

"Nope." Zuo Leaning asked and thought about it carefully, "I don't even have dead air, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have known that there was a corpse there...... But it may also be that my cultivation is too weak and I don't feel it. ”

"Understood." Lan Yilan stood up, "Thank you for your cooperation." ”

Leaning left asked, waving his hand, "Just remember to send me back." ”

"Ah Da Ah Er." The two men in sunglasses who were named stepped forward, and Lan Yilan ordered, "Send Mr. Zuo back to City D safely." ”

"Yes!"

"Then I'll take my leave."

"Wait!" Lan Yilan suddenly stopped the person.

Leaning left asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

"You keep this." As he spoke, he took out a jade piece from his sleeve pocket, "When you encounter danger, crush it, and someone will rush over to save you." ”

Leaning Zuo asked and took it, putting it in his pocket, "Thank you." ”

When I got home, the sun had set, and I shook my key and prepared to open the door.

As soon as the key was inserted into the lock hole, a black mist overflowed from the lock hole, and his eyelids jumped a little, but before he could stop it, the whole person was tightly wrapped in the black mist.

The black fog gradually dissipated, but the left leaning question was no longer in place, only a bunch of keys inserted in the door.
