Oh, it's quite sweet, Usu thought.

She removed the cherry stalk and placed it next to the food box.

Then, she picked up her chopsticks and searched the head of the bass.

For a long time, the chopsticks picked up a fish eye.

The fish was plump and large, about the size of a pearl earring left by Usu.

Usu's spell is simple, she can only roughly change the form of an object, and after a while, the spell will be ineffective.

She had just tried it with her cheap jewelry, but she couldn't turn them into pearl earrings.

Usu carefully inserted the cherry stalk into the fish, and the general shape of the pearl earrings came out.

Her fingertips touched on the fish, and the black and white breath wrapped the fruit stalk and the fisheye, and a small illusion turned them into pearl earrings.

The steward who retrieves the item will open it for inspection, as long as he can fool it over.

Usu put the two earrings, one real and one fake, into the jewelry box, folded the clothes that were sent down, and stored them safely in the brocade box.

She does things slowly, her hands and feet are not very sharp, and she is better than meticulous and patient.

Wu Su ate all the cherries and steamed sea bass alone, and she heard Wei Li and Lin Meng outside still talking about her.

She sat on her desk by the window and spread out a stack of stored letters.

These letters were written by a dead girl to her grandmother.

There were many typos on the letter, and the girl hadn't been to school for a few days.

No one taught Usu to read, and all the words she knew came from these letters.

That's why she was laughed at for being illiterate.

The more spiritually rich creatures are, the more abundant the yin and yang energy they produce after death.

Usu's insistence on staying here is because she wants to fulfill the pre-death wish of a human girl.

She remembers that she started out as a black and white air current.

In her initial chaotic form, she could feel the many different energies around her.

Some of the energy is light and dusty, and some of the energy is depressed and firm, but she can't absorb it.

As a living being, her instinct is to live.

Usu remembers that when he found those energies, there was a dying man lying in front of him.

Her name is Chen Wu, and her name is not very important, she is dead anyway.

Chen Wu is very young, less than twenty years old, and his appearance is ordinary, with a little freckles on his cheeks, which is a little cute.

She leaned against the innermost end of an alley, clutching her heart and coughing heavily.

Wu Su jumped in front of her curiously, startling Chen Wu.

Chen Wu's dry lips opened, and he stared at Wu Su with wide eyes, feeling that he was dreaming.

Usu circled around Chen Wu in the form of a black and white air current, she was hungry and weak, and she needed to absorb energy immediately.

She relied on her instinct to know that Chen Wu would dismantle the breath of yin and yang between life and death, which was her only source of energy.

Her breath was very cold, and Chen Wu shivered.

"Yes...... Is it a dream? Chen Wu whispered.

"When you die, I'll absorb your energy."

Wu Su announced to Chen Wu that if she didn't eat again, she would also die, so she lazily leaned on Chen Wu's neck.

She didn't make a sound, and her communication with Chen Wu stayed at the level of consciousness, which made Chen Wu feel even more like she was dreaming when she returned to the light.

Chen Wu shivered and dodged.

Usu said to himself: "In exchange, I get your dying energy, and I will fulfill your strongest wish before death, is that okay?" ”

She is very polite, and as a demon, she even has a consultative tone when she asks about eating.

Chen Wu coughed violently again, spitting out a mouthful of black blood, and her face turned pale.

She thought, anyway, it was all a dream before death, so she agreed.

She nodded, and Usu watched her die, the black and white chaotic air flow wrapped around Chen Wu's neck.

She absorbed the energy of a mortal before she died, and this was the first bite she had eaten in this world.

Usu briefly took a look at Chen Wu's life, Chen Wu came from a far away countryside, and she also had an elderly grandmother at home.

Chen Wu is not doing well, maybe this is the normal state of many ordinary people in Yundu.

She went to the aristocratic mansion in Yundu to find a job as a subordinate, but later she fell ill and never recovered.

The host's family refused to treat her, so they threw her out, and she died in the streets.

Chen Wu came to Yundu with a yearning, and she didn't want her grandmother to worry about her far away in the suburbs of Hechuan.

So every time I wrote to her, I wanted to tell my grandmother that she was doing well.

In the letter, she wrote that she had climbed the highest pavilion in Yundu and saw the shining lights of the city.

In fact, Chen Wu was wheezing on the sickbed.

She wrote that she had saved a lot of money, and when the time came, she would go back to Hechuan and build a big house for her grandmother.

In fact, the money she had saved up was not much for the treatment of the sick.

Chen Wu hopes that the illusion written in each of her letters is true.

Usu wasn't sure if this job was good or not, but since she had absorbed Chen Wu's dying energy, she would definitely do it for her.

So, she relied on the inherited memories of Chen Wu and got a thick stack of stationery, each of which was a letter she wrote to her grandmother in the countryside.

These letters were not sent, Hechuan was too far away, where did she have the money to send letters?

Usu's memory retracted, and she unfolded one of the letters on the table.

On the letter, Chen Wu wrote: "Grandma, I am very happy, in the place where I work, I met two very good girls, they are very cute, they live with me, I will ask them if I don't know anything, it's so good." ”

Usu still retains Chen Wu's memory.

Later, two of her friends asked her to deposit all the wages she earned into the silver village, but then the owner of the silver village ran away and she could not get her money back.

She took the pen and ticked the letter as if she had finished the letter.

Wu Su wasn't quite sure what cuteness meant, but this kind of thing, as long as she thought Wei Li and Lin Meng were cute.

King Jing's Mansion sent someone to take back the brocade box, and they didn't find anything unusual.

Usu was supposed not to be on duty yesterday, so she has to continue to do things today.

When the matter was almost settled, she went to sweep the yard.

She was relieved to hear that last night's distinguished guest had left King Jing's Mansion.

That kind of thing happened last night, and Pei Jiuzhi was still able to stay calm after waking up.

He did not claim that he was poisoned last night, but only pretended that nothing happened, said goodbye to King Jing, and left King Jing's mansion.

Pei Jiuzhi carried the sword behind him, and tightened the reins of the horse with one hand, and he looked at the bright light of the morning and carefully studied the pearl earring.

Suddenly, his cheeks were a little red, and he didn't know what he thought.

Pei Jiuzhi closed his palm, put the pearl earrings into his hands, and carefully kept them.

The others had already arrived at the Yundu Palace, and the attendants on the side helped him off his horse.

"Your Highness the Nine, do you have anything to order?" The squire asked.

Pei Jiuzhi thought for a moment and said two things to the attendant.

"Send someone to check the whereabouts of the foreign incense maker last night, try to catch it alive, don't startle the snake, I will explain this matter to my father."

"Talk to the Fourth Emperor Brother and let him check if the people in the mansion have lost a pearl earring."

His tone suddenly became a little strange, and he only raised his hand to stroke the bandage wrapped around his palm.

"If you can find the person who lost the earrings, take her to my Sun Moon Pavilion and treat her politely, don't scare her."

Chapter 4: Four Lights

Pei Jiuzhi slowly walked into the Yunli Hall of the Yundu Palace.

He carried the sword on his back, like a wandering swordsman, out of place in this royal palace.

He was the first person who could carry a weapon into the Cloud Glass Palace

"Nine branches." In the hall, the majestic emperor's voice came.

Pei Chu wore the imperial crown on his head and greeted him.

He noticed the wound on Pei Jiuzhi's palm at a glance.

"Jiuzhi, what's wrong with your hand?" Pei Chu asked.

"Father, I was injured myself." Pei Jiuzhi said calmly.

Pei Chu only stood in front of him, and didn't come any closer to him, Pei Jiuzhi seemed to keep the emperor of Yundu out of his world.

"What? I already know what you asked Xu Ling to investigate, what happened to you in King Jing's Mansion? Pei Chu's brows furrowed, a little worried.

In front of outsiders, this unattainable emperor has always been serious, even for his own children, he maintains the difference between monarchs and ministers.

For example, now, he did not call King Jing's name,

But for Pei Jiuzhi, he doesn't seem to be like this, and the conversation between the two is more like an ordinary father and son.

"I was drugged and ...... with a woman in King Jing's mansion"

Pei Jiuzhi calmly recounted the incident, and his tone did not fluctuate in the slightest.

"This-" Pei Chu was taken aback.
