Chapter 52: The Centennial Contract
"Lu Yao, come here." Hu He suddenly called her.
"What's the matter? My lord? Lu Yao seemed very flattered, after the story of Jishu just now, she is now full of admiration for Lord Huhe.
"Here's a mission for you."
"What task?" Lu Yao's eyes widened, could it be that she ushered in spring so soon?
"Clean the yard well every day, and it must be spotless for seven days in a row."
"Or sweep the yard?" Lu Yao pouted helplessly.
"Not satisfied?"
"Satisfied."
"Go ahead, sweep well, sweeping the yard is also a science." Lord Huhe flicked his sleeves and turned away in a dashing manner.
Seven days later
"Lu Yao, come here!" Lord Huhe shouted.
"What's the matter? My lord? "Could it be that she ushered in spring this time?
"Here's a mission for you."
"Yes!"
"Sweep the yard every day, and then pull out the geist grass outside the fence, and I want to soak in wine for seven days."
“..”
"Not satisfied?"
"Satisfied."
"Crying bag, tomorrow is the weekend, let's go find Su Qiqi and them to play."
"Yes, master!" The pot of camellia on the windowsill swayed left and right with a smile.
"Camellias bloom from October to May, and it's so strange that you're still in full bloom in August, and it's too inconvenient for me to carry you wherever I go."
"Li Zhe cast a spell on my necklace last night, and I put the camellia in the necklace, so it will be easier to take you out in the future."
"Great, master, otherwise you go out by yourself, I'm a demon at home, it's really boring. Are you going to the underworld tonight? ”
"Of course, but the spell that entered the Underworld Necklace will be invalid, so if you stay in the necklace, you won't be able to get out for the time being, is it okay?"
"No problem!"
After putting the crying bag into the necklace, the camellia disappeared quickly, and finally she didn't have to worry about Fang Ma chasing her ass and asked if she was buying a camellia or not, and why did it bloom so well after the flowering period.
"Lu Yao! What about sweeping the yard? "Jishu ran back from outside in a hurry.
"Hmm!" Lu Yao replied listlessly.
"Sweep it well!" He really doesn't think it's a big deal to see the excitement.
"Senior Brother Jishu! Hello, you said that Lord Huhe will not make things difficult for me, and will reuse me in the future! I've been sweeping the yard for more than ten days! ”
"Hey, what are you anxious about? We have signed a century-old contract with the prefecture, and there is still so much time, there is an opportunity! ”
"Hundred-year contract?" Lu Yao's eyes were so dark that she almost fainted.
The next morning, Lu Yao went to West Street with a crying bag.
Su Eryi didn't go out, and Su Qiqi got up for the first time!
"Yo, which way the wind blows, which way does the road run? Why are you so diligent today? ”
Su Qiqi, who was practicing, ignored it and continued to study the formation calmly.
"Okay, I won't bother you, I'll go sit in the courtyard."
"Walk slowly, Ghost Cha-sama!" Su Qiqi shouted behind his back.
"Oh, that's right." Lu Yao turned back and grabbed a handful of melon seeds.
"Auntie, you leave me some!"
This time, Lu Yao ignored it.
Lu Yao and Waibao sat under the tree and knocked melon seeds leisurely, chatting about their respective experiences of being ghosts and demons.
In the middle, I almost quarreled because it was better to be a ghost or a demon.
In the end, he raised his hand and surrendered first, after all, he was his master, so he didn't know her in general.
"Yo, this time your jaw doesn't leak?" Su Qiqi walked out of the house.
"Humph! Give you some face, this time with a chin. Lu Yao snorted coldly.
Su Qiqi naturally sat beside her, picked up the remaining melon seeds and knocked them up.
Seeing that the crying bag on the side was silent for a long time, Lu Yao turned her head and found that she was actually blushing with her head down.
"What's the matter, crying bag?"
"Huh? It's okay. Crying Bao hurriedly said.
No, it's absolutely not, the expression on the face of the crying bag is exactly the same as Lu Yao's expression when he faced Li Zhe at that time.
Could it be that in the days when I was fostering the crying bag here, something happened that I don't know? She looked at Su Qiqi suspiciously.
"See what I'm doing? I didn't bully her. ”
"Yes, he didn't bully me." The flower demon spoke quieter and quieter, and lowered his head again after speaking.
Su Qiqi, you rotten peach blossom, even my people dare to provoke? Lu Yao rolled his eyes angrily.
"No, what's wrong with me? Why are you glaring at me? ”
"Why am I glaring at you, you don't know? The Ghost Hunting Group has been in existence for a few months, have you earned a penny? ”
"Are you embarrassed to say me? Did you desert first? Now I went to the prefecture to be a civil servant, and I didn't even have any time at night! ”
"Is that what I want to be? You think I want to go and sweep the yard for a hundred years!"
"I said, why haven't you come back yet, he's back, let's go and plead and let you go quickly, we can continue to hunt ghosts."
"It's beautiful to think, I can't come back for a while when I see Lord Yama."
"Master, how cool it is to be a ghost, I envy it."
"What do you little goblin envy?"
"Our demon has a very low status in the Six Realms, and it is not as good as a ghost."
"You practice well, you are stronger than ghosts. Hurry, hurry up and worship Qiqi as a teacher, and let him teach you some real skills. ”
"Huh? You're not sick, are you? ”
Seeing that the flower demon didn't move for a long time, it was estimated that he was shy again.
"I'm kidding, what can you teach her? Teach her how to run fast? ”
"Let me tell you, my master has taught me a lot of skills recently, and in a few days, you may not be able to beat me."
"Then I'll wait for the day when you become famous, hurry up and let me open my eyes!" Lu Yao grabbed a handful of melon seed skins and raised them over.
"Hey, you guy!" Su Qiqi stood up and shouted, "Sweep the yard for me in a while." ”
"I don't sweep, I'm about to vomit when I sweep the yard in the Yunge Courtyard."
"If you don't sweep, you have to sweep, you stinky girl."
"There's not a single time you've stayed together without arguing!" Li Zhe walked into the courtyard.
"Oh, it's early, I thought you had to come in the afternoon."
"There's nothing to do today, and I'm up early." After Li Zhi finished speaking, he glanced at Lu Yao.
Lu Yao pretended to turn a blind eye, picked up the only remaining handful of melon seeds and began to knock.
"Brother Li Zhe, I heard that you looked very cute when you became a cat." Crying bag said.
"Who said that?" Li Zhen asked the crying bag, but his eyes were fixed on Lu Yao.
"Ahem, ahem." Lu Yao hurriedly lowered her head and pretended not to hear anything.
"It's definitely not me anyway!" Su Qiqi raised his hands to show his innocence, "I think you are particularly weird when you turn into a cat, and you are not cute at all." ”
"Brother Li Zhe, you become a cat, I'll take a look, okay?"
The crowd was silent.
"He can't change into a cat during the day, only at night, and in the middle of the night, you can't see it." Lu Yao hurriedly broke the embarrassment.
"Oh, the middle of the night."
"We'll go to the underworld in the middle of the night, what cats are you looking at?"
"Okay"
This little girl, her curiosity is really strong, watching Li Zhe turn from black to red, and then from red to black, Lu Yao couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Su Qiqi asked.
"Nothing!"
"It's all here?" Sleeper drifted in like a gust of wind,
"Eryi, I didn't thank you for saving me last time."
"You were arrested because of me, so it's reasonable to save you."
"By the way, do you know what that big toad is?"
"The monster in the pot forest."
"What is Hulin, Master?" Su Qiqi asked.
"The pot forest is at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, and there are many rare beasts in the forest, and most of them are highly spiritual, and there are many demons and demons. The big toad must have been captured by the demon and used to strengthen his skills. ”
"That big toad is not only outrageously ugly, but also cold as a refrigerator." Lu Yao couldn't help but cover her arms when she said this.
"It's called the Snake Han Dragon, it comes from the area of the Dragon Domain Snow Mountain in the northernmost part of Cangshan, and after it is formed, it will go to the pot forest to feed on the demonic energy of other small demon beasts."
"No wonder the chill is so cold."
"I said why it was so cold in that bar, I thought they turned the air conditioning up to the maximum!" Su Qiqi said.
"In this way, in order to express my gratitude, I invited everyone to dinner today, I was too busy a few days ago to take care of it, sorry sorry." Lu Yao said.
"Don't go out to eat Miss!" Su Qiqi flicked the melon seed skin on his body and stood up, "You don't like to go out to eat, and it's not convenient to chat and talk." ”
"I'll go out and buy groceries and come back and make it!"
"I'll go too, I'll buy, buy whatever you want, buy as much as you want." Lu Yao followed and stood up.
"Yo, your pocket money has gone up again?" Su Qiqi asked.
"Being a ghost is a little bit subsidized."
"What else can you do with the money they gave you?"
"Why can't you spend it, maybe in a few years, I will be able to buy a big house in the underworld! When the time comes, please come and play! ”
"No, no, we want to live a few more years." Su Qiqi hurriedly waved his hand.
"Let's go, let's go, go grocery shopping! Crying bag! Li folds away, 21 you are at home to watch the house! ”
"Li Zhe, you stay, I have something to ask you." Su Eryi said.
"Good!" Li Zhe nodded.
"Then the three of us went!" Su Qiqi walked back to the house and got a coat.
When the flower demon heard that he was going out, he jumped up and down happily.
"Crying bag, when you come back in a while, you will enter the necklace first, your spiritual power is too low to appear for too long."
"Got it, master."
"Let's go, hurry up, there will be no good food in a while." Su Qiqi rushed out first.
"Wait for me!" The crying bag also jumped out.
"Gone!" Lu Yao took one last look at Li Zhe's tall back, turned around and caught up with them.
"Li Zhe, I want to ask you something." Su Er asked as soon as he saw that several of them were gone.
"Say it."
"You royal cat clan, is there something wrong?"
"Hmm."
"But what's the big deal?"
"My master is missing."
"Your master?"
"When?"
"Soon after he left the customs, one day he called us and said that he was going down the mountain for a few days and had an important matter to do, but he didn't come back for more than a month."
"Whether it's with a sensor necklace or a summons warrant, I can't find him."
"You've put this down?"
"It's not the time to alarm other factions, you know, now that the world is not peaceful, it is inevitable that some people will not use their hearts to make a big fuss about this matter and ruin the reputation of our clan."
"I understand, what are you going down this time for?"
"I went down the mountain to look for Master, but Senior Brother sent me back to help him preside over the overall situation, and now that Master has only been gone for a month, there has already begun to be some commotion in the door.
I didn't want to get involved in their civil war, and I noticed that something had happened to Lu Yao, so I took the opportunity to find an excuse to push my senior brother's request, and rushed back to find a way to rescue Lu Yao first. ”
"Do you have some eyebrows about this now?" Su Eryi asked.
"Not yet, no clue."
"Didn't your master tell him where to go before he left?"
"Master was very strange before leaving, and he had to tell us a lot before he left, even if he was only away for one day."
"But this time he didn't say anything about where he was going, and."
"And what?"
"And after the master came out, his temperament changed, and he occasionally became short-tempered and unscrupulous."
"Isn't it, my breath is not stable when I practice, and I am a little crazy?"
"It's not like, he was full of energy when he came out, and he said that his skills were a few steps higher."
"This matter is very complicated, it needs to be considered in the long run, if there is anything you need from me, you can just ask."
"Thank you!" Li Zhe nodded worriedly.
