Chapter 40: Hitchhiking

Even though he was a little angry that I threw this troublesome thing at him, the ghost still accepted the demon pill.

"How are you going to explain it to your classmates?"

He asked suddenly.

That's a reminder to me. Even with the cover of the black mist, I really pulled my hand out of Xun Qingzi's hand and left. Now that the demonic energy in the gymnasium should have dissipated, they must have been suspicious when they found out that I had disappeared, and how to explain it is really a problem.

"I really don't know."

I scratched my head helplessly and said awkwardly.

But the ghost laughed, and mocked:

"Retribution, who told you to lie to me about dealing with this demon pill."

I gave him a middle finger, but it was a headache. How can I continue to hide the fact that I am a warlock?

It's not that I'm worried that other people will pose a threat to me if they know my abilities, but I just just want to have a safe and secure college life, and I took them in when I met demons, but I didn't meet them, and I didn't want anyone to bother me because of my abilities. As for Xun Qingzi, I don't want her to know that there are really ghosts in this world.

"If you want me to say, you have to find someone who can help you cover up."

The ghost retracted his smile and beckoned for me.

"The man who played the cover ......"

I groaned. Indeed, it would be much more convenient to have someone who could help me with cover. Just like what Yang Xiran did last time in the mall, when I encounter something that is difficult to explain, if someone can support my statement from the perspective of a third party, it will not be so easy to be suspected by others, and I can also deal with evil demons more confidently.

"As for who to find, you decide, no one can see me anyway." The ghost grinned again, waved his hand, and the originally illusory figure instantly turned into a cloud of black mist, "I'll go first, come on." ”

A fresh breeze blew, and I was the only one left in the wilderness.

I was struggling with how to exonerate myself, but the phone in my trouser pocket rang vividly. I took out my phone and found that it was Xun Qingzi who called me.

"Hello? Ten Ann? Where are you? Are you okay? ”

There was an anxious voice on the other end of the line.

"It's okay, I'm outside the gym."

I didn't have time to make up a clever story, so I had to ramble nonsense.

"How did you get out?"

"I don't know, I couldn't see anything after the black fog floated up, I thought it was the lights off and I thought about looking for the switch, but I came out inexplicably."

"Then come back quickly, the school leaders don't seem to care about how the black fog came from, and ask us to continue the opening ceremony."

Xun Qingzi didn't seem to doubt my flawed explanation, but just opened his mouth to urge.

I'm a little strange, according to Xun Qingzi's character, if I saw such a strange scene, I should have been frightened. Why can you talk to me so calmly now, and urge me to go back quickly?

"What do you think? Do you hear that? ”

On the other end of the phone, Xun Qingzi's urging voice came again, interrupting my doubtful thoughts.

"I'll go back right away."

hung up the phone and temporarily let go of his suspicions about Xun Qingzi. Looking around, I realized that I didn't even know where I was. How can I go back to this wilderness?

The sound of wheels crashing against dirt came from behind me, and the bright headlights instantly illuminated the deep black around me. I turned my head to see a dark SUV parked firmly behind me.

"Little brother, why are you here alone? Do you need me to take you back? ”

The window rolled down, and a middle-aged man with a big look and three thick men poked his head out and asked.

I looked at him with some vigilance, and said:

"Big brother, why are you here?"

The eldest brother heard the suspicion in my tone, but he was not angry, but replied happily:

"Little brother, don't be afraid, I'm in business, I'm socializing at the suburban manor today, and I'm a little late when I come back, thinking about taking the road back to the city."

Looking at the sincere look on the man's face, I relaxed a little.

It's not that I trust people easily. The foundation of cultivating the three arts is spiritual power, and people with spiritual power tend to have a sense of the surroundings that is more than half stronger than others, especially for ghostly qi, demonic qi, and evil qi, which tend to be cold and cold. Although it is rare for a human to carry these aura, if they have the idea of killing people and goods, they will inevitably exude a similar aura. I saw that this big brother didn't have a trace of cold breath when he talked to me, so I was relieved.

"Where is the eldest brother going, if you stop by, please give me a ride."

I said with a harmless smile as I approached the car.

"You don't care where I'm going, get in the car, I'll take you where you're going."

The eldest brother also said boldly.

"Okay, thank you, big brother."

I opened the back door and sat down. When my eldest brother saw me close the car door, he stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the bustling city.

"By the way, little brother, you're still a student, where do you go to school?"

There was a little panic in the carriage, and the eldest brother probably felt a little embarrassed, and his opening was almost a word.

Naturally, I can't refute his face, after all, the use of people and cars is short, and replied:

"Yes, I'm a freshman at Shenzhen-Hong Kong University."

"You're going back to school, aren't you?"

"Yes, excuse me."

When the eldest brother heard what I said, he was happy:

"Don't bother, I just happened to be going to Shenzhen-Hong Kong University to pick up my leader. By the way, isn't it the opening ceremony today? Why did you come to this wilderness alone? ”

"Oh, my house is over here, I wanted to walk to the bus stop."

I started to fool people again.

But the big brother didn't question it, just smiled and nodded.

Although the departure place is in the suburbs, the eldest brother drives fast, and in less than half an hour, the car drove into the parking lot of the Shenzhen-Hong Kong University Gymnasium. The eldest brother stopped the car, rolled down the window, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said:

"Little brother, it's here, the ceremony shouldn't be over yet, right?"

I took out my phone and looked at the time, only to find that it was almost nine o'clock, and according to the plan, the entrance ceremony should be close to the end now, and then it will be our student sorority.

"It should be over, and then it's our students' networking activities, and your leader should come out right away." I explained to my eldest brother, "Then I'll go in first, thank you eldest brother today." ”

The eldest brother waved his hand and said in a big stinging voice:

"Don't get in the way, don't go to that piece after you are alone, it's dangerous."

I also said goodbye to my eldest brother, and just wanted to turn around, but found that my eldest brother hurriedly extinguished his cigarette, respectfully got out of the car and opened the door, and said:

"Boss, please."

Looking in the direction of his compilation, he was surprised.

It was not someone else who was approaching, but the dragon general who was carrying two stars on his shoulders. I hurriedly stepped aside and watched as the old man walked to the front of the car step by step.

I have always respected the soldiers who fought for the country since I was a child, and there were several retired officers next to Master's house, who were more familiar with Master and liked me. But I've never seen an officer of such rank, and I can't help but get excited.

Long Shu walked to the side of the car leisurely, but there was a flash of joy in his eyes that could not be concealed, and he looked at me with some kindness but suspicion, and asked the eldest brother:

"Xiao Li, who is this?"

Brother Li didn't dare to slack off, and replied:

"Boss, this is the little brother I picked up when I came out of my home, and I am also a student of Shenzhen-Hong Kong University."

As one of the highest-ranking officers in the Huaxia army system, Long Shu was not as arrogant as I imagined, he just nodded with a smile and said with concern:

"Little comrade, it is very dangerous to go to the wilderness by yourself, so you should pay attention in the future. Come on in, the sorority has just begun. ”

I didn't expect Long Shu to treat an ordinary student like this, I was a little speechless with excitement, and I held back for a long time before I popped out the words:

"Thank you, General Dragon."

He smiled kindly at me, motioned for the guards who followed him to get into the car, and he also got into the car with the help of Brother Li.

Brother Li closed the door for Long Shu, patted me on the shoulder, sat back in the driver's seat, started the car, and roared away.

I was still a little stunned when I stayed where I was, but I didn't expect that the commanders of an army were not all people who thought very highly of themselves.

……

"Xiao Li, how do you feel?"

The general's car had not yet driven out of the stadium park, but Long Shu, who was sitting in the back seat, spoke slowly.

Xiao Li in the driver's seat is no longer the same respectful appearance as before, although he still has some respect for the old man in the back seat of the car, but between the words, it is more like the mode of getting along between old friends.

"Boss, he's a good seedling, that blind demon is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he was forced to accept it, it's not easy."

Xiao Li replied.

Long Shu nodded with satisfaction, but remembered the past with some loss.

"You say, if Xiao Xian hadn't left the army at the beginning, he should at least be a general now."

"It should be, even if he doesn't have the qualifications, but he's the only one in the whole army who can solve that kind of thing. Chief One had a special meeting with him. ”

Xiao Li also sighed a little stunned.

"Xiao Xian has been gone for so many years, and I don't know what the situation is, if he is still here, we don't have to go to such great lengths to find others. I didn't expect that after so many years of silence, that thing in the north has revived again. ”

Long Shu leaned against the car door, and some old eyes looked through the car window, looking at the starry night sky in the distance.

"But chief, has you found that kid from Brother Xian? I heard that my sister-in-law has stopped interacting with us since my brother left. ”

Xiao Li seemed to think of something and asked.

Long Shu also pondered for a while before slowly replying:

"Have you forgotten the three chapters of the covenant between Xiao Xian and us? Due to the conditions for him to join us at the beginning, we didn't specifically look for Xiao Liu and his children, but listening to the rumors above, they should still be living in our military region, and we don't know where they are. ”

"Chief, if Brother Xian's children also inherit Brother Xian's abilities, then wouldn't it be more convenient for us."

Xiao Li was not discouraged and seemed to be very concerned about the affairs of the person who was called Brother Xian.

Long Shu didn't answer, and his vicissitudes of life stared at the night sky even tighter. The starry sky slowly turned into the handsome appearance of a middle-aged man, causing the old man who had been in a high position for decades to sigh helplessly
