Chapter 170: Heaven and Earth Begin to Dawn

Life suddenly returned to normal, so fast that I felt a little uncomfortable, as if there was no gap in the middle of that month. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Surprisingly, within a month's time, the bar reopened – albeit with very few customers every day.

Human resilience is like this, no matter what kind of blow it receives, it will not remain still for a long time, and it will always move gradually and quickly.

Anyway, there is basically no cost problem with the bar, the house is its own, and it has been since the day the house was built. All the supplies needed for the bar were obtained by special means, and they hardly needed to spend money to buy them. These are the conclusions I have slowly come to after managing the accounts for a while.

After I started taking care of the accounts, it didn't take long for the bar to turn a profit, which wasn't really my fault, but because they didn't care too much before. As the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. If it weren't for the fact that it's easy to make a profit, I don't have the ability and level to quickly save a business.

Therefore, the bar can be open as long as it wants, and there is no need to consider the relationship between the number of customers and the cost. I think that in a special time like this, maybe Liqing will be more interested in where human beings will go, right?

She is the kind of demon who will lend a helping hand to humans when necessary, but at the same time, she has been a witness and spectator of human history for a long time.

My room was still spotless, and the location of everything hadn't changed, just like it had been before I left. I was a little moved in my heart, although I knew that it only took a little magic power to keep it this way, and there was no need for them to work by hand at all.

This deepened my sense of return and allowed me to quickly return to my old life.

Of course, a complete, real return has indeed become impossible.

Usually, I still work as my bookkeeper, a little cook, and a waiter. After half a year of tempering these three roles, I have long been familiar with it, and the nervous feelings at the beginning are long gone. During the time I was gone, I realized that I was really thinking about them, so when I prepared three meals a day, I put more thought into it than before, and my cooking skills became more and more sophisticated.

That's not all I have anymore, though.

After returning to the city, I quickly got in touch with the city's demon hunter branch with the help of Lu Jingping. The city where Boring Zhai is located happens to be the largest city in the surrounding area, so with this as the core, the demon hunting plans of more than a dozen nearby cities are all in charge of the city's demon hunter organization. There are only about 30 people in this branch, so the daily work is quite busy.

I made an agreement with them that for the time being, I would only participate in demon hunting operations in and around the city, and I would not have a fixed partner combination with others. Whichever team is short of manpower, I'll go to the team to support it, as long as I can participate in the demon hunt.

It's not a harsh condition, and it's even more convenient for the recipients, who don't know much about me after all.

So, every time the family demon hunter makes a move, he sends me a notification. At such moments, I would take a day off at the bar for a day or two to go on a Monster Hunter hunt. The people who are bored have always asked and intervened in my actions, so there is no difficulty in asking for leave or anything.

I didn't mean to lie to them, and if they wanted to ask, I would try to explain, but they didn't ask, which made me feel more relaxed. Rather, it's a kind of trust they have in me, and I believe that no matter how I choose, I won't do anything bad for them.

In addition to the hunt of the demon hunter, I will also take some action myself. After a month of studying at home, I quickly mastered many technical things, such as how to find and locate the demonic energy from a distance, and how to use more convenient props such as rune paper and traps. This allows me to hunt when I'm alone, and it's safer and more efficient than I used to try.

However, it is still necessary to participate in the collective hunt of the family, because the target of the collective hunt is a large number of higher-ranking demons, which is very difficult to hunt with the strength of one person, and such demons are bound to provide me with more and higher quality spirits.

Over time, I gradually adapted to this "two-faced" life and did not feel very tired. On the contrary, the more and more spirit accumulated in my body makes me energetic, and I don't know where to go.

The summer is approaching, although there is still a volt after the beginning of autumn, but the current summer heat is different from the real summer, especially in the morning and evening, and it has begun to have a trace of coolness that belongs to autumn.

If the weather is going to get cooler, it will be something that comes suddenly, and an autumn rain is enough to change everything, just like at sunset, the sun often suddenly falls below the horizon, so fast that you can hear a "plop" sound.

This coolness can be regarded as a kind of killing breath, and as this smell is strong, the grass begins to wither, and the trees quietly drop their leaves. Beginning and ending are the essence of all life, and the four seasons themselves are a miniature cycle.

So autumn is another season of killing.

Since ancient times, people have only begun to torture and kill in autumn to conform to the murderous atmosphere of heaven and earth. During the summer season, prisoners who have committed serious crimes begin to be executed, known as "autumn executions". Spring birth, summer length, autumn harvest, winter storage, in the autumn to collect the lives of death row prisoners, "killing the guilty" became customized.

And for me, it seems that the real battle has only just begun in the fall.

In just a few days, I had already hunted nine demons and let two go. The reason why I let them go was because the two demons did not have a strong desire to eat people, and I tried to use my father's method to sign a "contract" with them, making them swear that they would not be enemies of humans for the rest of my life.

As for what to do when I die, that doesn't seem to be something I can think about right now. My father didn't solve this problem, but fate led me forward and allowed me to take over what he had left behind. Perhaps, when that day comes, fate will naturally guide another person to solve all this, right?

Therefore, if you encounter a problem that is difficult to solve, it does not have to be solved immediately. Perhaps, as time passes, when the time comes, you will find that the original tangled problem is not a problem at all.

In short, the methods I learned by accident in that forest opened up a new path for me and allowed me to achieve a new balance in my relationship with demons.

Every day, a new demon spirit infiltrates my body, making my power grow stronger and my perception sharper. Every day, I spend a little time in the middle of the night trying to connect with the missing mystery man, but so far I have been disappointed every time.

Still, my consciousness gradually changed - even if I couldn't find him, I don't know what directly transmitted a feeling to my body, and I became more convinced day by day that he must still be alive!
