Chapter 22: The Demon Hunting Mansion
When he saw Bai Jingjing walking in, Yun Ge unconsciously stepped back, stretched out his hand and pulled Shen Qingjiu, and whispered: "That big spider is clearly in the room, I saw it with my own eyes, and I talked to him, why did it appear in this again, does this demon know how to doppelgΓ€nger, Bai Bai Jingjing should be a human, how could she raise such a demon who is afraid of people." β
People, the taste is different, some people like to raise cats, such as the night, some people like to raise snakes, such as Xiaozhi, and Bai Jingjing, as a big star, likes to raise spiders, which is understandable, but this big spider is indeed a little special, the eight long hairy legs are also terrifying, and he appeared in the room, the forbidden place in the backyard, and now he appeared on Bai Jingjing's shoulder.
At this time, what kind of purpose did he have when he appeared in Taiji Tower, and why did Bai Jingjing play Missing, the report in the magazine showed that someone was looking for him and was about to go crazy.
Just when Shen Qingjiu was thinking about these many questions in his heart, Bai Jingjing had already stepped on high heels and came to her, with a proud look, when she looked at Shen Qingjiu, her chin was raised high, and said, "Has my room been cleaned?" β
A smile squeezed out of Shen Qingjiu's face and said, "It's already cleaned." β
Bai Jingjing didn't even say a word of "thank you", so she stepped on her high heels and walked to her room without even looking back.
Shen Qingjiu's eyes kept following her back, her eyes fell on the big spider on Bai Jingjing's back, the big spider was originally lying on Bai Jingjing's shoulder, and when Bai Jingjing was about to enter the room, the big spider suddenly turned around, a pair of green and faint eyes met Shen Qingjiu's eyes, Shen Qingjiu even saw him smiling at himself.
"Huh?"
Shen Qingjiu was taken aback, her steps unconsciously stepped back, and just bumped into the body of a person who had just walked in, she glanced back and said, "Yan Zhuo?" β
The person who was called Yan Zhuo stretched out his hand to help her and said, "I was frightened by something, and my face turned white." β
Shen Qingjiu smiled awkwardly, and then looked at the direction of the room of "Gu Yu", Bai Jingjing had already walked in with the big spider, the door was closed, and only the string of silver bells hanging outside the door could be seen.
Yan Zhuo also glanced at her gaze and said, "What's wrong?" β
Shen Qingjiu hurriedly shook his head and said, "No...... It's nothing, Yan Zhuo, why did you come, is there something wrong with Grandpa Jiu, grandma has been out for the past few days and hasn't come back yet, and I don't know when she will come back. β
Yan Zhuo took out a black post from his pocket and said, "I'm not here to find Mrs. Shen, I'm here to find you, your friend Shao Siyu and Yueqing are in the Demon Hunting Mansion, and the old man asked you to come over." β
"Yueqing?"
Shen Qingjiu repeated the name, and then, she remembered the new guest who arrived last night, however, how could Shao Siyu be with him, and he also went to the Demon Hunting Mansion, what were they going to do there, Shen Qingjiu's eyes quickly turned around on the first floor, and sure enough, he didn't see Shao Siyu's figure, he was no longer in the Taiji Building.
Yan Zhuo seemed to be afraid that she would be worried, and said, "Don't worry, it's just for you to come over and talk, there's nothing special." β
It's okay if he doesn't say it, as soon as he says this, Shen Qingjiu is even more worried, and mutters in a low voice: "The old man doesn't go out once a year, why did he call me over so suddenly, Shao Siyu looks very old and serious, why do you follow others to mess around?" β
Yan Zhuo was still waiting for him.
Shen Qingjiu squeezed out a smile at him and said, "It's okay, you wait for me for a while, I'll go with you when I go and arrange it, and it will be fine soon." β
As she spoke, she turned around and came to the front of the counter, and explained a few words to Yun Ge, mainly Bai Ruyu and the little fox in the room, as long as these two honestly don't cause trouble, other things, the people in the Taiji Building will solve them.
After explaining, Shen Qingjiu came to Yan Zhuo's approach and said, "Let's go." β
The two of them went out of the Taiji Building, Shen Qingjiu found that Yan Zhuo came by car, she could take the car to the Demon Hunting Mansion instead of walking by herself, after getting in the car, Yan Zhuo started the car and took Shen Qingjiu to the Demon Hunting Mansion.
The Demon Hunting Mansion, I don't know what I mean, is the big headquarters of the demon city monster hunters, the hall owner is called Jiuli, that is, the old man in everyone's mouth, the old man has ninety and two this year, and he doesn't go out on weekdays, he stays in the Demon Hunting Mansion all year round, and when there is a big event, he will only go out once, and this kind of big event usually doesn't necessarily have once a year.
Shen Qingjiu looked up at the tall lintel of the Demon Hunting Mansion, as well as the two mighty stone lions next to her, and the two rows of tall trees behind her that hid the Demon Hunting Mansion in it, and then, she took a deep breath and walked into the Demon Hunting Mansion.
In the long history, the demon hunters have grown from a few people at the beginning to tens of thousands of people, and there are hundreds of demon hunters who stay in the demon hunting mansion all year round, they all know Shen Qingjiu, and when she walked in, they stopped what they were doing and looked sideways.
In this deep mansion compound with a heavy sense of history, in this red brick mansion, the people who live in it have a heavy feeling, and when their eyes look at it, it will give people an invisible pressure.
Shen Qingjiu smiled at them awkwardly, raised a hand and waved it gently, and said in his mouth: "Hi! β
The people smiled at her too, and this smile eased the stagnant atmosphere, making people feel less heavy, but much lighter.
Following Yan Zhuo's footsteps, after entering the fifth gate, he came to a large courtyard, where bright sunlight fell from the top of his head, shining in the courtyard, and in the north of the courtyard was a somewhat old Taishi chair, and a person was sitting on this Taishi chair.
He was wearing a black robe, and on the left shoulder of the robe was embroidered a golden five-clawed flying dragon, which was a dress that only the highest-level demon hunters could wear, and only people at the level of demon hunters could wear clothes, looking at his face, a calm and majestic face, under the two thick eyebrows, was a pair of shining eyes, under the bridge of his nose, there was a slight smile on the corner of his lips, making his seriousness with a little love.
In the courtyard, in addition to the old man, there are four people sitting, the first one sitting on the left is the demon hunter moon, he is still wearing his cap, the whole face is hidden in a shadow, the peach wood sword is placed on the coffee table at hand, under him sits the night, the moon in white clothes, under the sun's rays, as if his whole person will shine, and more dazzling is the white cat lying in his arms, the white cat that is purring and sleeping.
The two people sitting on the other side, Shen Qingjiu also knew each other, and the one sitting in front was Yueqing, who seemed to have a calm posture at any time, and with a gentle smile on his face, and his peach blossom eyes, under the sun, flashed with strange brilliance, so that people would be fascinated by him at a glance.
Shao Siyu, who was sitting under him, was in a completely different state, even in such a warm sun, he was still cold, like a piece of ice that could not be sunburned, and there was no change in his gaze, only when he saw Shen Qingjiu walking in, he raised his eyelids slightly and glanced at her.
After Shen Qingjiu looked at a few people, he fell on Jiu Li's body again, raised his arms, saluted respectfully, and said, "Junior Shen Qingjiu, I have seen Grandpa Jiu." β
Jiuli raised his hand and said, "Xiaojiu is here, but I haven't seen it for a long time, and I don't know if I came to see me as an old man during the summer vacation, but I heard that you have done a lot of things recently, and even the snow demon has come to ask you." β
Shen Qingjiu's face flushed slightly, and he said embarrassedly: "It's because grandma is not there, so I can barely do a little bit of things, and besides, I can do this thanks to ......."
Speaking of this, she glanced sideways at Shao Siyu, and Shao Siyu also looked at him calmly, but the two of them didn't say a word.
Jiu Li's eyes also fell on Shao Siyu's body, and said: "There are two distinguished guests from the Demon Hunting Mansion today, and they both live in the Taiji Building, Xiaojiu, don't you introduce Grandpa Jiu?" β
Shen Qingjiu felt that Jiuli had already asked their names, and it was not superfluous to ask her this sentence, Jiuli would not call him over for no reason, and looking at this battle, I was afraid that it would not be so easy to pass, thinking about it again, Shen Qingjiu spoke: "This is Yueqing, a guest who stayed in Taiji Building yesterday, and lives in the 'Tian' room on the second floor. β
"Hmm-"
When Jiu Li heard this, he let out a heavy doubt, and his gaze at Yueqing became different, with doubts and exploration in his eyes, he said: "This room, if I remember correctly, has never been occupied." β
Shen Qingjiu nodded in response and said, "Yes, there is only one room on the second floor that is occupied, and the room with the name 'Tian' is the second room that is occupied. β
Jiuli raised his hand and stroked the silver-white beard under his chin, and his gaze slowly moved from Yueqing's body to Shao Siyu's body, and said, "So, what about this?" β
Shen Qingjiu's eyes also fell on Shao Siyu's body, and he hesitated for a moment before he spoke, saying: "Speaking of which, Ninth Grandpa may not believe it, his name is Shao Siyu, he is the guardian spirit of the Shen family, and he followed my ancestor three thousand years ago, and then, they fell into a deep sleep, and they only woke up recently." β
When she finished saying this, Demon Hunter Yue said disdainfully: "Make up a story, you should also make up a more reliable one, I can still tell the difference between people and demons." β
Shen Qingjiu spread his hands and said, "That's the way it is, if you don't believe it, I can't help it, Ninth Grandfather, that's all." β
After listening to her introduction, Jiuli said with a smile: "The world is so big, there are no wonders, the legendary story of the ancestors of the Shen family, not only you children, even us old people, we have listened to it since childhood, I don't know how many times I have heard it, it is an even more bizarre thing, it is also possible, since everyone has known each other, then, you can start." β
Here we go? What started? What to start?
Shen Qingjiu felt that something bad was going to happen.
