Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Blind Man Who Moves Freely
Zhu Yingwu was instantly covered with black lines, and was about to knock on them, but Zhu Luan grabbed the front and asked, "How long does it take to apply for a permit?" ”
"Uh...... ......To be honest, Zhu Yingwu also had a headache when he mentioned the certificate, and shook his head depressedly: "It's hard to say, if it goes well, it will take two or three days, if it doesn't go well, it's not impossible to do it for a year and a half." The efficiency of the demon committee is ...... Alas, it's annoying to think about! As he spoke, he glanced at Zhu Luan again, and deliberately scared him: "You two are honest!" Before the certificate is issued, I will be honest and stay here. Otherwise, if you are really repatriated, your names will be hung on the association's website, accompanied by photos, a tengu and a luanniao, waiting to be famous! ”
The little tengu imagined that picture, shook it, and hummed and nestled into Zhu Luan's arms. Zhu Luan didn't care about it: "It's okay, Liuliu and I are already very famous." ”
"......" Zhu Yingwu was choked to death again, and it was easy to hold back, and he said unhappily: "Forget it!" Tomorrow, I will take you to apply for a residence permit, and I will have to deal with the problem of your own attributes. ”
Most of the mythical beasts are born with some special attributes, and when some appear, they will bring good luck to people, but some will cause terrible disasters. Those who will bring auspicious signs are better, but those that will cause all kinds of disasters, such as plagues, floods and fires, if they are not dealt with, they will be allowed to wander in the human world, and the human world will already be in chaos.
In the post-war reconstruction, Ying Long single-handedly founded the Demon Committee to manage the mythical beasts and spirits in a unified manner, and gradually established contact with those in power in the human world. Later, the development of the demon committee was on the right track, and after the institutions began to gradually improve, they set up a research institute with special funds, and the first topic of research and development was "how to suppress the special attributes of divine beasts", so that whether it is a disaster beast or a rui beast, they can move freely in the world without being restricted by attributes.
After Ying Long's abdication, two presidents succeeded him, and when he passed to Chairman Bao Keming, he was already the fourth president. And no matter who is the president, the project has been steadily advancing. After thousands of years of improvement, it has now been mainly divided into two ways: taking medicine and wearing an inhibition ring, and the inhibition means can be said to be quite mature, and the effect has been comprehensively verified.
Overall, there are pros and cons to both approaches. If you take the medicine, you need to go to the designated place every year to take the medicine with inhibitory properties, and even if you drink it, it will leave no traces, except that it is really hard to drink and a little troublesome, there are no other drawbacks. Wearing the inhibition ring is even more once and for all, because once you put it on, you can't take it off, and you only need to undergo spot checks from time to time to ensure that there are no problems with the efficacy of the inhibition ring.
However, the inhibition ring has a fatal drawback, and that is ugly. At the beginning, maybe because the inhibition ring was so ugly, the divine beasts basically chose to drink medicine. It was not until recent years that they entered the commercial society, and many people with active brains saw the business opportunities and designed a series of inhibition ring decorations, which can modify the inhibition ring into a variety of delicate hand and foot rings, and the number of mythical beasts wearing the inhibition ring has gradually increased.
However, whether it is wearing an inhibition ring or drinking medicine, it is a process that the divine beast must go through in order to legally enter the human world.
Zhu Yingwu reminded: "By the way, you should first think about whether to choose a belt ring or drink medicine, and I will make an appointment online in advance." ”
"That ......" Zhu Luan still wanted to ask which way was more convenient, but suddenly the doorbell rang, and then there was a rapid knock on the door outside.
Bai Xiaoming poked his head out of the kitchen and said with a smile: "It should be takeaway, Yingwu, you go get it." ”
"Okay!" Zhu Yingwu agreed, didn't want to talk nonsense with these two troublesome spirits anymore, and walked quickly to the door.
Although it is a takeaway, it is also made by a serious private restaurant, and the amount of dishes is not large, but the number of samples is quite large. Because it is delivered by the restaurant, it also comes with a plate setting service, and the delivery staff quickly put the plates on the table, saying that he would come to the door to collect the tableware after the meal, and said goodbye.
After Bai Xiaoming beckoned a few people to sit down, in order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, he also deliberately opened a bottle of red wine. Zhu Yingwu was busy distributing drinks, and when he saw the red wine that Bai Xiaoming put on the table, he was afraid that someone would drink too much and talk nonsense, so he hurriedly stopped: "Old Bai, forget it, they don't know how to drink ......."
The words were still in his mouth, and when he turned his head, he saw that Zhu Luan had already secretly poured half a cup for himself, and he didn't forget to leave a bowl for the little tengu, and one person and one cat had already drunk it all.
Zhu Yingwu has a black line, even if he drinks it himself, he will give it to the little heavenly dog to drink, this is death! And the next second, as if confirming his worry, the little tengu's eyes suddenly became confused, shook a few times, flicked his tail again, stretched his neck, and simply burped.
"Oh, you bear kid! You can't drink it, you spit it out for me! ”
I'm really afraid of something. Zhu Yingwu was in a hurry, and he was about to pull the tail of the little tengu. And Zhu Luan instinctively protected the little tengu, grabbed it first and hugged it in his arms. Just like that, you are fighting for me, and the little tengu, who was a little dizzy after drinking, was provoked by the external force, and reacted subconsciously, and with a mouth open, he spit out a golden circle of light.
"Not good!"
Zhu Yingwu screamed secretly, and the alarm bell sounded in his heart.
However, the aperture had already spun rapidly, flew out against Zhu Yingwu's head, and hit the chandelier in the living room with a bang. The chandelier shattered, and the crystal decorations on it were scattered all over the ground.
At the same time, all the lights in the villa dimmed together - tripped.
In the darkness, Bai Xiaoming's voice sounded: "No one is hurt, right?" ”
Zhu Yingwu covered the little tengu's mouth with one hand, and said weakly: "No, no, don't worry!" ”
"That's good, don't move, don't get pierced by the glass. Probably a short circuit, the property will come to deal with it soon. With that, Bai Xiaoming turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and opened the curtains.
The weather was fine tonight, and the moonlight shone in through the window, and the interior could almost be roughly outlined. Soon, the property people came, worthy of 7 * 24 hours of top service configuration, workers quickly dealt with the problem of power outage tripping, not to mention, but also helped to clean up the broken ceiling lights, promised to order the same paragraph will be the first time to replace.
After everything was taken care of, Bai Xiaoming breathed a sigh of relief, and he was finally able to sit down and eat.
"After a day of driving, and tossing for a while, I'm hungry, eat more."
After Bai Xiaoming said hello, he glanced at the candle dragon sitting on the side, hesitated a little in his heart, and glanced at Zhu Yingwu. And Zhu Yingwu was busy helping everyone to serve dinner, and at first he didn't understand what Bai Xiaoming meant, and the two of them looked at each other for a long time before they suddenly realized: Bai Xiaoming regarded the candle dragon as a blind man, and was worried that he would not be able to eat by himself.
Zhu Yingwu really didn't know how to explain it for a while, so that it could be natural and proper. Secretly distressed for a while, he simply threw the question to the candle dragon and asked, "Boss, are you okay?" ”
The candle faucet ate the rice in the bowl without raising it, and hummed casually. Zhu Yingwu hurriedly made an "ok" gesture to Bai Xiaoming, and said with a dry smile: "Don't worry, the boss has long been used to it." ”
Seeing this, Bai Xiaoming stopped asking.
Zhu Yingwu has made a lot of strange friends, some of them dress very differently, and some of them behave strangely. Speaking of which, last time he saw a man who jumped like a fly without a leg. In this way, it is not surprising that a blind man can move freely.
