The wind rose all around, the leaves rattled, and under the clear moonlight, the white mist dispersed with the wind and turned into nothingness.

The man stood still, the hem of his robe blown, and an extremely oppressive aura swelled around him, making people feel that they were being targeted by a ferocious beast, and they were almost reduced to a meal.

Yan Yunkai stepped back silently, his eyes fixed on the man's eyes—a pair of golden beast pupils that could be seen clearly in the night, staring at him for a moment.

He hugged the trembling orange cat in his arms, and with one free hand, he reached into the pocket of his trousers, where there were a few pieces of rune paper, he knew that he was no match for men, and he only hoped to get out of the way.

Before his hand touched his trouser pocket, the wind around him gradually stopped, and the golden two-point light not far away went out like a lamp, turning into a pupil that was no different from a human being, and with it, it was the oppressive aura on the man's body.

Yan Yunkai was stunned for a moment, watching the monster in front of him turn into a low-key, honest, and even inconspicuous young man at first glance.

"Excuse me...... Do you have documents? Yan Yunkai asked cautiously, "ID card, human residence permit......

He has excellent night vision, and through the night, he can see the fleeting blank expression on the man's face. He has always been very bold, and when he saw the possibility of communication, he held back his panic, cleared his throat, and forced a smile, doing enough superficial work: "Explain in advance, I have no malicious intentions." However, looking at your current state, I am afraid that you have been out of touch with society for a long time. ”

The man looked at him, and finally spoke, his voice hoarse: "The year I entered the enchantment was the 28th year of the Republic of China. ”

Enchantment? Can you even lay an enchantment on Qingcheng Mountain without being noticed by the Dao Masters? The 28th year of the Republic of China is 1939, and it has been 79 years since then, why did he escape the world for so long?

Yan Yunkai was full of questions, thinking carefully, but there was not even a question mark on his face, and he said gently: "Nearly eighty years have passed, and if Mr. wants to enter the WTO, he must need a guide." ”

"Daqian Hongchen, all living beings ......" The man's gaze was too clear, like a child who did not know the world, and like an old man who had passed thousands of sails, lined with his resolute silhouette and handsome facial features, there was a peculiar temperament, for a while, he said lightly, "Let's take a look again." ”

"I'd love to help you with that, and that's part of my job." Yan Yunkai said sincerely.

The man looked at him and shook his head.

"Why not ......"

Before he finished speaking, Yan Yunkai didn't even have time to react, the man took a few steps forward, and in the blink of an eye, he had already walked far away.

Yan Yunkai: "......"

"Okay." Left and right couldn't catch up, he touched the orange cat's back and smiled bitterly, "Free guide, the strength is weaker than him, there is no threat at all, why doesn't he accept it?" ”

"Meow." The orange cat raised its head and rubbed Yan Yunkai's chin, jumped to the ground, and turned into a teenager. The demon clan has always respected the strong, Duan Yi's face was still pale, he looked around in fear, and whispered, "I grew up in Chengdu since I was a child, and I am a staff member of the local demon committee, but I have never heard of such a big demon. ”

Yan Yunkai picked up his coat, patted the dust, and sighed: "Forget it, let's go down the mountain." ”

The two walked back again, Duan Yi drove Yan Yun back to the Qianshan Hotel, he was scared enough tonight, for fear that a monster would attack his little kitten, so he simply opened a room to live.

At this time, the night was already very deep, Yan Yunkai was lying on the big bed, his mobile phone was in his ear, reporting work.

"Did you record it?" Mandarin full of Northeast flavor came from the earpiece, "What's the matter with you, what can you do with logistics?" ”

Yan Yunkai casually fiddled with his modified watch and replied, "I recorded it, but fortunately I wore it." Automatically ignored the subsequent questioning, and said, "I originally wanted to persuade him to get a hukou, but he can't always be a black household." ”

"I'll take a look at the video first and contact the local demon committee to find out. How powerful is he, is he better than my brother? ”

Yan Yunkai yawned, he sat in the office all the year round, and he rarely worked so busy, so he was really tired at this time: "I don't know, I haven't fought with him." I'm going to sleep, and I have to have a meeting tomorrow. ”

"Okay, wait until you get back."

Yan Yunkai hung up the phone, took a simple shower, and soon fell asleep.

At two o'clock in the morning, the office of the Chengdu Demon Committee.

A gray wolf squatted in an office chair, its ears drooping, its paws resting on the mouse, clicking to play and pause. The man on the display gave birth to a pair of golden beast pupils, and the pupils were vertical, as if they would glow automatically.

"There are more races like this with long eyes, and I can't guess what kind of demon it is." The gray wolf scratched his ears with his hind legs and asked the colleague next to him, "What did Duan Yi say?" ”

"Duan Yi said that the coercion at the beginning was terrible, but then I don't know if it was deliberately restrained or what, I didn't notice the breath." The monster next to him maintained a human form, so sleepy that two fluffy bear ears grew on the door of his head, "Alas, the application for accessing the surveillance video has been approved, I'll go to the Qingcheng Mountain Monitoring Center to take a look." ”

The gray wolf waved his hand: "Remember to put your ears away." ”

Qingcheng Mountain has been building a smart scenic spot since a long time ago, and the video surveillance points cover a wide range, and even some monitoring points connected to Skynet are connected to monitor the nearby road sections, and it is expected that Mr. Monster from the Republic of China will not be aware of this.

Xiong Da lamented the rapid development of human society, and stared at a few large screens in the monitoring center in a struggling manner, and several pictures were divided on the screen, which was dazzling.

Fortunately, at this point in time, there was not much to hang out about, which relieved him of a lot of work pressure.

The sky was slightly bright, Xiong Da was so sleepy that he was dozing, and was woken up by the staff on night duty next to him: "Officer Xiong, Officer Xiong, is this the person you are looking for?" ”

Xiong Da snorted, and subconsciously touched his ears, which was very good, but he didn't show it. He hurriedly said, "Where, where?" ”

The staff zoomed in on one of the images and saw a man in a long shirt walking forward unhurriedly on a road near the mountain in front of Qingcheng Mountain, occasionally stopping to observe the nearby billboards and neon signs.

Look at what this has never seen in the world...... Xiong Da complained silently in his heart, but he still didn't dare to relax, and took out his mobile phone to post a position in a WeChat group.

In summer, the day dawns early, and tourists and locals begin to appear on the streets one after another, and Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes are often seen near Qingcheng Mountain, and no one thinks it is strange to see a man in a long shirt at this time.

The man's footsteps paused slightly, and he turned the small half of his face sideways, revealing the contours of his resolute face. He didn't even look behind him, and the next moment he naturally turned around, not caring about the people who were following him behind him—or rather, youkai.

In the hotel room, Yan Yunkai was woken up by the alarm clock, grabbed the mobile phone next to the bed and glanced at it, and said to himself: "This Chengdu Demon Committee is not good, it has been a night and no one has been caught." ”

He washed up, and did not forget to take care of his skin, before tying up the hair of his shawl, finishing his suit with a cleansing charm, and finally adjusting his tie at fault.

After everything was cleaned up, Yan Yunkai showed a reserved smile in the mirror, snapped his fingers to himself, and went out for a meeting.

Most of the people in the conference hall were middle-aged Taoist priests, wearing Taoist clothes, growing hair and beards, and in addition to that, they were all middle-aged leaders. He claimed to be a staff member of the National Religious Affairs Bureau, but he didn't know each other with the people of the National Religious Affairs Bureau, and he never spoke at meetings, so he chose a remote seat to sit down and reduce his presence as much as possible.

Originally, he didn't need to attend the coordination meeting of this kind of activity in person, but this time the scale of Luo Tiandajiao was really grand, and in order to avoid any chaos, he still came over to take a look.

Yan Yun opened the chair before it was hot, the mobile phone suddenly vibrate, he glanced at WeChat, and then remembered that Duan Yi was added as a friend last night.

Duan Yi: Leader! We're stuck with the guy last night! Now what!

Yan Yunkai: Grab it, cuff it.

Duan Yi: Don't dare to go up! He looks so fierce!

Yan Yunkai: ......

After a while, Duan Yi sent a location, followed by a message: Leader, he seems to want to see you.

Yan Yunkai stared at this news for two seconds, twisted his eyebrows, raised his eyes and looked around, fortunately close to the back door in this position, and the next moment, he went out of the back door lightly and gave Duan Yi a voice back: "Stabilize him, I'll be there immediately." ”

The location was in an alley, and when Yan Yunkai rushed over, he felt that the picture was a little weird.

The orange cat squatted at the entrance of the alley, stretching its neck in anticipation of him, and at the end of the alley was a farmhouse, with occasional tourists coming in and out, so the other few people did not dare to show their true bodies at all, so they could only pretend to be tourists and walk around the alley.

Men in long shirts stand in the alley, studying small advertisements posted on telephone poles.

Although this atmosphere didn't seem to be relaxed, it didn't mean to be a moment, Yan Yunkai asked, "Did you do it?" ”

"How dare you." A person next to him whispered, "Is it good to enter the game in a fight, and if he uses a spell, it will cause a commotion." ”

Yan Yunkai breathed a sigh of relief silently, walked in slowly, and stopped at a relatively safe distance: "My name is Yan Yunkai, and my job is to coordinate the demons and spirits in this world. Dare to ask Mr. Honorable Name? ”

“…… Theft. The man turned his head, glanced at him, and added, "Zhao steals the machine." ”

"Mr. Zhao, we have no hostility towards you, we just want to talk to you." Yan Yunkai said.

"I know." Zhao Thief shook his head slightly, and glanced at the people not far away with an expressionless face, "So I didn't do it." ”

Youkai who can reason are good youkai.

Yan Yun happily felt a little sure, and said with a faint smile: "Let's talk in another place." ”

After tossing for such a morning, the meal was almost here, Yan Yunkai found a restaurant and decided to chat while eating. Although the special nature of his unit does not require him to socialize every once in a while, he has been exposed to the place in the capital, and he has also learned a little bit of the ability to talk about people and talk nonsense.

Now that I see this demon who doesn't know the depth of strength, I naturally can't force it.

He booked a private room, finished ordering, saw that Zhao Theft had been looking at the air conditioner, thought about it, and found an entry point for the conversation: "Today's China, compared with the Republic of China period, has changed very much. Presumably Mr. Zhao has some understanding. ”

Zhao retracted his gaze and looked at him calmly.

Yan Yunkai met his gaze and looked into those indifferent eyes, and he suspected in his heart that the sense of oppression brought to him by those beast pupils last night was an illusion. He settled down and continued: "The living conditions of human beings are more superior, the social order is more stable, and at the same time, the demon race has also been subject to more tolerant and stricter control. ”

"Even though the vast majority of people don't know about the existence of the demon race, and as a small number of people, those capable people no longer regard the monster as evil, and they gradually accept the demon race into the area where humans live, try to deal with them, and even live together. This is tolerance. Yan Yunkai smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to signal the demons at the dinner table.

Duan Yi plucked up the courage to look at Zhao Thief, and took over the conversation: "But we must abide by the rules and regulations of this society like human beings, and there are even rules specifically formulated for the demon clan, if we don't comply, we will also be sanctioned." It's strict. ”

Yan Yunkai opened the bottle of wine, calmly filled Zhao Thief's machine, poured himself another glass, and said, "So, first of all, you have to have a proof of identity of your own." ”

As soon as Zhao Thief's brows furrowed, Yan Yunkai immediately blinked helplessly: "Our human race is born ordinary, and it can't be compared with the demon race, even if the population of the demon race is not prosperous, we don't dare to be careless, and we should protect ourselves." Sir, you should be considerate and considerate of us, not to mention that the development of the world is beyond your imagination, and with an ID card, your life is much more convenient. ”

As he spoke, he raised his glass to Zhao Thief, lowered his head and took a sip, thinking that if he could beat him, he would have gone directly to him, and he would salute first and then soldier.

The dishes were served one after another, Yan Yunkai lowered his hair on WeChat, and when he raised his eyes, he found that Zhao had not eaten or drunk, so he sat there quietly and watched himself play with his mobile phone, and did not speak, like an autistic child.

It may be more appropriate to say that it is a lonely old man, who is out of touch with society, has no companions around him, does not understand anything, has no money, and has no house...... Yan Yunkai thought silently, it seemed a little miserable.

His thoughts were flying, and he had already thought of how much a house in Beijing cost from the lonely old man, and he still looked stable and reliable on the surface, and said with a slight smile: "Since Mr. Zhao has already gone down the mountain, I don't know where he wants to go?" Is there anything to do? ”

Zhao shook his head.

"In this way, the world is so big, it's a trouble to think about where to go, so it's better to join me first." Yan Yunkai said, "If you have any ideas in the future, it's not too late for you to leave." For the matter of certificates, our unit guarantees one-stop service, and will arrange it properly for you, and try our best to solve all your difficulties. ”

Duan Yi looked up from the bowl and asked with great interest: "Leader, do you want to eat and stay, I also want to join you." ”

Yan Yunkai: "Don't talk while eating." ”

Duan Yi: "......"

Zhao didn't react, staring at the wine glass, as if weighing something, and after a while, he answered: "Okay." ”

Yan Yunkai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Duan Yi put down his chopsticks and asked cautiously: "Senior, take the liberty of asking, what is your original body?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Yan Yunkai and all the monsters at the dinner table turned their heads to look at Zhao Theft, very curious about who the monsters who even made such a big move out of an enchantment would be.

Zhao was silent for a while, a strange look appeared on his face, which had always been unhappy or sad, his brows furrowed, and he said, "Forget." ”

Everyone was stunned.

No youkai won't remember their original form, and even if they don't, they'll know it when they change back to their original form.

"You can't turn back into your original self?" Yan Yunkai was stunned for a moment.

Zhao Thief was silent, even if he recognized it, he didn't seem very anxious when he encountered such a big thing. Yan Yunkai pondered for a while, but decided to interrogate him after returning to Beijing, after all, he didn't know the depth of Zhao's theft, in case he annoyed people and ran away, it would be troublesome.

The top priority at the moment should be to coax Zhao to go to Beijing first, and he can't believe that the old fritters in the unit can't deter him.

Originally, after the Luo Tian Jiao Activity Coordination Meeting, the Taoist Association also arranged for the leaders to visit the place where the altar was set up in the whole mountain, but Yan Yunkai didn't have the heart to go, went to the hotel to check out, and decided to return to the unit early.

He opened an APP on his mobile phone and was about to book another ticket to Beijing, when he remembered that Zhao Pijia didn't have an ID card, so he had to borrow an ID card from Duan Yi, while chanting: "Look, black households are very troublesome, and they can't even buy air tickets." When you go to the security check, you use a trick to make up your eyes and pretend to be Duan Yi...... Special treatment in special circumstances, you will be considered illegal if you do so in the future. ”

Duan Yi drove the two to the airport, pouted, and looked very reluctant: "My ID photo is too ugly, leader, don't let too many people see it." ”

"Don't worry, I'll send you the documents by courier when I get to Beijing." Yan Yun opened the way.

Zhao sat in the back seat, and his tall figure could not be stretched out in the small space of the car. He looked at the rapidly reversing scenery outside the car window, the silhouette of his side face was resolute, and his thin lips were slightly pursed, but he looked a little restrained.

Yan Yunkai only thought that he was not used to riding in the car, opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it over, winked at him, and reassured: "Slowly get used to it." ”

Zhao Thief looked at the white hand, and after a while, he slowly took the mineral water, and there was no longer any discomfort along the way.

It's just that when he sat on the plane, looking down at the ground, watching the city getting smaller and smaller, the sky would not be dark, but the lights of thousands of homes were lit up, becoming a little light in the darkness, and the expressionless face finally showed a trace of trance of time passing.

At ten o'clock in the evening of the same day, the T2 terminal of the capital airport.

There were already people waiting at the exit of the station, and a handsome young man was bowing his head to play a mobile game, and he felt that there was someone in front of him, and he didn't raise his head: "Why did you bring a wild man back on a business trip?" I calculated that you had peach blossom luck before, but you still don't believe it. ”

"What a man." Yan Yunkai took away his mobile phone and raised his chin, "The one from Qingcheng Mountain, Brother Zhong didn't tell you?" ”

"Qingcheng Mountain...... Bai Suzhen" You You was not annoyed when he was robbed of his mobile phone, he hummed a little song casually, and glanced at Zhao Thief, "Yo, he looks like a human, no wonder you want to bring him to Beijing in person." ”

Zhao Thief Machine followed behind Yan Yunkai, looking like he didn't care about himself, looking at the nearby buildings in every possible way.

"Say a few words, you." Yan Yunkai didn't feel the slightest shyness to be ridiculed, but turned his head to take a look, "It's okay." ”

The night is thick, the capital is brightly lit, and the traffic is endless.

You You parked the car under the unit building and yawned: "You go down by yourself, I'm off work." ”

"Okay, see you tomorrow." Yan Yun got out of the car, opened the door of the back seat, and led Zhao into the building after the theft machine came out.

Yan Yunkai's office is on the second basement floor, and the elevator has to use the iris to identify the identity, and whoever enters and exits will be recorded in the background in real time.

He didn't go back to his office, he directly led Zhao to a room at the end of the corridor downstairs, pushed the door in, and greeted: "Brother Zhong." ”

Behind the table sat a tall and stout man, who asked in a northeastern accent, "Yo, why did you bring people back, beauty?" ”

"Thank you for your recognition of me, but I know it with affection and reason." Yan Yunkai's face did not change, motioned for Zhao to sit down, and said to Zhong Yihu, "I told you the details on the phone before, you can deal with it." ”

He was about to leave when his wrist was suddenly clasped.

Zhao grabbed his wrist, slowly but forcefully pulled him to the chair next to him, raised his eyes, and stared at him with dark eyes for a moment.

Yan Yunkai was stunned, smiled lightly, touched his arm with his backhand, and sat down without necessity.

"What kind of demon are you, and the fledgling plot." Zhong Yihu wondered.

"What a fledgling, he means, if anything unpleasant happens here, he'll kill me." Yan Yunkai sneered and leaned lazily on the back of his chair, "Okay, what should I ask, hurry up and ask." ”
