We are all ordinary people in the times, and this change is just a normal company merger and acquisition, which is good, at least it is not one-size-fits-all to make everyone unemployed. What if it was the original me? If I didn't have a tomato relationship, then I should be thinking about my own way out right now.

But when you think about it, I really don't have much to turn back from. With a mediocre resume, a pale background, and a few connections, there is actually a limit to what I can do. I thought about it again, if he was really such a powerful ancient demon clan, why would he consider my life as an ordinary person. After all, whether in mythology or fiction, they are all a high-ranking people, and I should be an ant-like existence. And if you can let Kui run errands and do these things, how deep should the background be behind it.

I shudder at the thought of this. Because I'm so small, so small that they shouldn't know who I am. But now that they're not only knowing, they're thinking about me, and that's scary. It's like a tiger looking at a little mouse, no, maybe a creature smaller than a mouse, and the pressure comes like a tidal wave.

After the principal's meeting in a daze, it was already past 4 o'clock in the afternoon. I guess I didn't have anything to do, so I walked out of school and had to get my phone for Tomato. And I also need to talk to Tomato about my uneasy feelings. She's also a newly awakened demon, and she's not a big demon in theory, so is she also being used by them?

Run downstairs to the parking lot. Hey, two people were standing in front of my car, and they were Asian. "Little brother, are you surnamed Jiang?"

"yes, you are?"

"That's right, we are from the Central Plains Religious Council. Little brother, have you ever been to the Zhanshan Lodge here? ”

"Have you been, you are from the temple?"

"No, we're staying in the temple temporarily. You know that Zhanshan Monastery is a monk who came from the Central Plains to promote Buddhism, and opened a temple here. ”

"You're here to make a fortune?"

"No, no, we're just here to see you."

“… Do you have something to say? ”

"Xiaowen, don't say it, he's even more confused like this. Let me tell you. The man named Xiaowen immediately dodged and flashed out of the person behind him.

"Hello, my surname is Cao, and we are from the Central Plains Religious Council. We would like to ask you, do you know Niu Kui? ”

"Huh?" , I'm a clever person, and this thing has something to do with demons?

"Don't be nervous. Looking at your expression is to know that you have seen Niu Kui. Then you should know who he is, right? ”

"That's... Are you like him? I'm a little weak-hearted.,I can't say this demon or something.。

"We are representatives... Human, don't worry, we're not bad people, and he's not bad people. To be precise, we represent the practitioners of the Central Plains region. He represents the demon clan and is not in conflict at the moment. We just want to ask, what is the matter with him looking for you? ”

You were really direct, and you directly picked out the position of the deputies. There is no conflict at the moment, but what about before and after? This word game also plays with me, and I am good at studying law.

"You said you represent the cultivators of the Central Plains region? Are there any practitioners from other regions? ”

"Yes, they may or may not come to you. It's actually a good thing that we found you first. ”

"What do you mean? Why are you looking for me? ”

"Niu Kui found you, right, what he wants to do, it's not too small, so every eye will be staring at him. He must have told you something when he looked for you. Can you tell us? That way, if something bad happens to you, we can still protect you. ”

"How can you protect me? And this is North America, according to what you said, it should be the local cultivators who are more capable, right? ”

"It's not what you think, first of all, the influence of the Central Plains is much greater than you think, especially at the level of cultivation. Secondly, in theory, we are all local practitioners. ”

"What do you mean?"

"It's nothing, it's just that everyone is a family. Little brother, what did Niu Kui tell you? Is it convenient to chat? ”

"I didn't say anything, but the main thing was..."

Before I could finish speaking, suddenly a police car drove up in front of me, and out of it came two policemen, the same two people who stopped me on the road last time to ask for my driver's license. "Dear gentlemen, we are the policemen who have been ordered to keep him safe, is there anything between you?"

What? Why did the local police protect me, and as a person concerned, I didn't even know about it?

"It's nothing, you're on orders, then you can ask your boss. They know why we are looking for him. In addition, Xiao Jiang, think about your position, if you have something, come to Zhanshan Jingshe to find us. Mr. Cao didn't say a word of nonsense, just turned around and left, and Xiaowen followed him.

The two cops saw them go, shrugged their shoulders, and said to me, if you don't feel safe, call the police immediately, we're nearby, and they are gone.

I stood alone in the parking lot, looking at their distant backs, I really wanted to shout a national scolding, but I didn't dare. Let's go home, oh, get the phone first.

When I got home, Tomato was waiting for me at the door, and as soon as I reached out and grabbed the skin on the back of her neck, I carried her to the table. While slapping the phone case on the table, he glared at her.

"What's wrong with you? You okay. ”

"I want to ask you, what the hell is going on? A bunch of people are looking for me today! ”

I told Tomato about it and voiced my doubts. I don't think it's that simple, otherwise why would a bunch of people stare at me, and it's all an inexplicable department. Kui doesn't want to use us as a shield.

Tomato listened with her head drooping, turning her ears from time to time, and she seemed to be puzzled.

"You've been watching the house all day today, is there anything strange?" , I was a little more angry.

"There's nothing strange about the house, but the neighbors next door seem to be moving?"

"Neighbors?"

"Well, at least three families are moving, and I've seen a lot of moving trucks coming in and out." I was even more puzzled when Tomato said this, because when I came back, there was nothing, I didn't see the moving truck, I didn't see the people who moved, and there was no change from my morning departure.

Maybe something is really going to happen? Do you want an earthquake? No, it was a rat who moved by the earthquake. Now who can explain to me what these doubts are?

"This is your mobile phone, we selected it online at the time, it's not big, you can plug your ears, you try it." , I reluctantly gave my phone to Tomato first.

"Can you reach Kui?"

"No, I don't have his phone."

"You don't have any telepathy, or any teleportation or anything.

"You've read too many novels, it's martial arts." In fact, demons mainly rely on demon qi to perceive each other, but I can't feel that level of demons. ”

"So we just have to wait now?"

"Yes, but it shouldn't be that long."

"How do you know?"

"I feel that the cat's premonition is already sensitive, not to mention that I am still a woman."

"Shouldn't you say mother?

"I like it, can't I? Penis. ", it's over, the tomato's royal sister voice comes out again. Okay, the 500-year-old royal sister, of course she didn't dare to say it.

"What are we doing now? Are you waiting for the gods to come to me at home? Will they unload me? That person today also asked me to think about my position, what is my position? What's for dinner? ”

“.… You can eat whatever you want. ”

"I'll invite you to dinner." Kui's voice came from outside the door.

Yes, outside the door, he didn't come in directly this time, but he still heard what we said from outside. I also talked, isn't this even worse! In other words, the house that I have always relied on for safety is actually the same as papier-mâché.

I suddenly remembered the classic Star Wars line: You don't know anything about the power of darkness. Now that I understand this sentence deeply, I actually don't know anything about the power of these demons.

"Tell me what you want to eat. I invite you to dinner. ”

“… Beef noodles? ”

“…”

"Just kidding, I went to a demon barbecue restaurant last time, do you want to go?"

"Tell me in front of me, if you see the Bull Demon King, he can roast you. I know the family you said, they are not the demons of the Central Plains, they are the fox clan of the Sakura Country. Let's go, their house is quite hot. ”

No wonder he has a light beard, it turns out to be a fox family. But why do they speak Chinese? I thought the boss was from the Central Plains.

Moving to the barbecue restaurant, this time the little fox was not there, but the old fox came out. A chubby Ojisan said that the fox is not like it, and the raccoon cat is a little similar. He took us into a private room. Private rooms are really rare in the Maple Leaf Country, and most of the restaurants here do not have them, probably because of the market, and the people of the Maple Leaf Country do not have the habit of entering the private room.

This private room is relatively large, about 10 people can accommodate a party, there is no separate barbecue grill, but there are still exhaust facilities. After a while, the fat boss came in with a barbecue stove, and it turned out that it was going to be grilled on the spot. Counting the boss, there are only 3 people in the house and a cat.

Kui first took out a small bottle, which contained a purple and blue elixir, and said to the tomato: "This is for you, this is not a golden pill, but it is a mending pill to repair your previous injuries." You must first raise the foundation before you can use Jindan. Then he looked at me, "Did anyone look for you after I left school today?" ”

"Yes, they said it was from the Religious Council, and asked what you said to me. I don't know if I can say it or not, but then the police broke it off. ”

"They are still thinking about things with this opposing thinking, and they always feel that what we are going to do to subvert human beings, what age is this."

"They told me to think about where I stand."

"Humans, ever since they became independent from beasts, they have always taken themselves too seriously." , Kui was a little helpless, but he said a little angrily.

"So what if they come back to me? Do I say it or not? And why did the police in Maple Leaf come to me later, saying that they were protecting my safety? What's going on here. You're not going to use us as a gunman, are you? Or do you want to use us as temporary workers and dump the pot on us when you're done using it? ”

"You're too embarrassed to think of us, but it's hard to tell if someone else comes to you. Your blood has been checked, I want to ask you, do you want to be an ordinary person? Or a practitioner? ”
