Bai Ze opened his bloodshot eyes, the surroundings were pitch black, the hot air of the air conditioner blowing in his face, and the honking of the car outside the window all told that this was the real world that had been lost for a long time.

Standing up from the carpet in silence, he patrolled the room in the darkness, various items scattered at his feet, and the little gray-haired fox was clumped into a ball, crushed under the storage bag.

After putting on the items one by one, Bai Ze rubbed the ears of the gray-haired little fox, turned on the indoor lights and opened the curtains in its sleepy eyes.

The dazzling incandescent lights mingle with the neon lights of different colors outside, reflecting a snapshot of modern urban life.

The gray-haired little fox froze in place, staring at all kinds of novel objects dizzily, until Bai Ze knocked on the mirror a few times, plugged in headphones for the photographic mirror that had been woken up again, and stuffed it into its arms.

"Liuzi, I was supposed to take you around and introduce you to the world, but there is something urgent that I need to do. Bai Ze tried to plug headphones into its big ears, "You have also seen this predecessor in the photoscope, he will introduce the basic situation of the present, and a lot of common sense in this world."

It's a pity that the little fox's ears are obviously different from humans, Bai Ze gave up trying, and had to stuff the headphones into the little fleshy paws to teach it how to use the microphone to ask questions and how to hear the sound inside.

Putting up the head of the little fox who was eager to try new things, Bai Ze told solemnly: "Remember, the humans here also can't recognize the existence of monsters, but they are more intelligent and cunning, don't show the characteristics of fox demons in front of outsiders, that will lead to fatal danger." ”

The little fox nodded honestly, his originally smart and agile eyes immediately became wild and sluggish, and his behavior was no longer human, like a second fool fox who had just been caught in the wild.

Bai Ze smiled approvingly, tucked it into his arms along with the mirror, looked at the time, and walked out of the room quickly.

Ruthlessly rejected the check-out counter lady covered her chest and called "cute", wanting to hug the little fox's request, he pushed open the heavy glass door of the hotel, and the huge noise accompanied by the cold wind in winter ushered in, and the long-lost Luobei City welcomed the guests in a unique way of modern cities.

The Lantern Festival is coming, even on this ordinary road, the street lamps on both sides are also hung with flaming red round lanterns, and the bulbs inside exude a dim but cold light, reflecting the red but happy faces on the street.

But in the crowd enjoying the festive atmosphere, a tall and vigorous figure walked through it very uncontrollably, with long hair scattered in his hat, fluttering on both sides with his steps, and if you look from the dimly lit side, you may think that this is a sturdy and muscular girl, or a prodigal literary worker, similar to an underground rock singer or something.

The clock tower in the distance showed that the time was already half past seven o'clock in the evening, Bai Ze walked out of a small mobile phone business hall, and as soon as he opened the newly bought mobile phone, a series of missed calls and text messages popped up one after another.

There was no accident, several phone calls were all made by family members, and they disappeared for a day and a night after leaving a note, or when Tang Lin and his wife were sick, if there was no excellent reason, I am afraid that I would be nagged for a while when I went back this time.

The text message also confirmed Bai Ze's thoughts, several short messages were all sent by Luo Zhi, and he complained sternly that he promised to go to the temple fair, but released his sister's pigeon, and he couldn't be contacted all day on the Lantern Festival, which was so worrying.

Looking at these daily complaints, the corners of Bai Ze's mouth curled slightly, and the light of the screen shone through the white ha, shining into his tired eyes, reflecting warmth.

Since playing high school in the past few years, obsessed with games, not only have I received many similar text messages, but every time I go out from an Internet café after staying up all night, looking down at my phone and not answering the call, my tiredness will not be less than now!

However, no matter how late you go back, there will be warm food left in the rice pot, and no matter how much you complain, when you go out again, you will still hear the phrase "pay attention to safety......

Maybe I haven't seen my family for too long, there are too many intrigues and conspiracies in the world in the picture book, on this winter night, Bai Ze rubbed his temples that were getting more and more painful, especially missing the warm bed at home, and wanted to have a good rest.

Retreating to the desktop, the call button in the lower left corner clearly showed seven missed calls, and he just wanted to press it, but his fingers suddenly stopped, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.

Above the call button, a new application appears installed, the penguin logo slowly emerges, and a bus passes by, casting a huge shadow over him.

"Forget it, just go home, I venture into the world of the painting book again, isn't it just to recuperate my injuries and solve the spells on my strength! Now it's almost all solved! With the power of hundreds of drops of demon blood on my body, these two small spells of hooking will definitely do nothing, what am I going to do now?。 ”

"What does it matter to me how many people die? Even if there is a river of blood tonight and Luobei City loses order, I can protect the safety of my family, and it will be good to wait for the government to solve it when the time comes!"

"It's a big deal that I sent a report letter anonymously, explaining the causes and consequences of Lin Yin and the old ghost clearly, and I have fulfilled my obligations as a citizen, and I just haven't made the mistake of 'personal heroism', so many good solutions!"

"Even with Shang Fang's sword, don't forget that I'm a half-demon! Besides, there is no 100% victorious war in this world, so why take the risk of indifference!"

"Even if I risk offending a certain official force and save everyone in the city, who knows? I won't even give me a pennant for a few dollars, so I can only break my family's heart again in vain!"

"Go back now, celebrate the Lantern Festival with laughter, have a good reunion dinner, take a hot bath and sleep well, and after tomorrow, let him flood the sky, can you bear me at all?"

......

Once the thoughts in my heart were shaken, countless ideas and reasons sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and several voices poured out the pros and cons from all angles.

Bai Ze looked at the phone and the penguin signs, and was so confused that even he forgot why he was in a hurry to get back from the world of the painting book, why he took the risk to intercept the hunter Wang and his son, and why he refused Zhao San and the woman in green who were obviously obsessed with him.

He can obviously rely on his strength, easily enjoy the blessings of Qi people, and live a luxurious life to spend that world safely, how can he be so tired as now, on a peaceful festival night, he violated the agreement with his sister to watch the temple fair, and hurried to the battlefield with a sword on his back?
