Yingxuetang Xiangbei branch, the person who broke into the store and rushed to the library area with all her strength failed to stabilize her body. She knelt down on the ground in embarrassment, broke her high heels, dropped her bun, and frayed it.
Knee.
She made a fist with her right hand and punched it through the floor, stopping the inertia of her sprint. Her left hand, with the celibacy ring on her little finger, grabbed the flickering pure white silk thread.
Her chest heaved violently, and the flowing emerald magic took over the movement that was about to end. The magic vibrated, and the tune was successful. The gentle and determined emerald climbed up the silk thread left by Li Zhixian, and passed along the traces she left.
The inside of the world.
Li Zhixian held Zhao Yuhan, who had passed out due to the magic power, and watched as a familiar green color came from the other side of the world and wrapped around her little finger tied with silk thread.
A tear fell in the darkness.
She wrapped the emerald silk thread around her palm several times, and the familiar magic power pulsed in her palm, as if she was holding that person's hand again.
The magical girl in the darkness pulled the thread between the two, hugged Zhao Yuhan tightly in her arms, and flew along the stabilized passage to the anchor point of the world.
…
When Liang De ran out of the boundary gate and rushed to the Yingxuetang Xiangbei branch, Yu Peihuan had already walked out of the bookstore and was about to leave.
She looked very embarrassed with her messy hair and frayed clothes, but she still looked gentle and calm.
"They're fine. They'll be back in about ten minutes."
Liang De glanced at his mobile phone, which was playing the scene of the Thunder Demon Sect's Cat-Ape Gambling in real time. Li Zhixian was flying through the air with Zhao Yuhan in his arms. Both of them seemed to be fine.
The high-speed channel back to the 415 world was actually congested. Fortunately, I contacted Huang Chuanchao in advance...
He breathed a sigh of relief and said to Yu Peihuan:
"Aren't you waiting for her to come back?"
Yu Peihuan smiled and said:
"The wine has been finished. Thank you, Lao Liang."
The light of the magical girl's transformation illuminated the narrow alley, and Yu Peihuan's flying figure disappeared into the sky and clouds.
Liang De walked into the bookstore and sat back on the light blue swivel chair.
There are still many traces of golden light wine on the floor next to Li Zhixian's lazy sofa.
A simple high-level ritual has eliminated so much light wine. Sure enough, Xin Erdai has zero ability outside of his birth.
Shameful.
Liang De dipped his index finger into some remaining light wine, downloaded the "Evil Sect Sacrifice" from the intranet, and carefully sketched the formation diagram on the book on the ground.
…
The air was distorted, and the emerald magic pierced the barrier between the two ends of the world. Li Zhixian hugged Zhao Yuhan and gently placed him on the lazy sofa.
She turned around and saw Liang De sitting on a swivel chair with his head lowered and smoking, a serious look on his face, and four wildly cursive characters written on the chest of his brand new light blue T-shirt:
"Withered trees come spring."
Li Zhixian touched the top of his head and said with a smile:
"The hair taken away by the four thunder friends will never grow back if you change your head. That's what you told me.
Lao Liang, you want to collect my IQ tax?
You are ten thousand years too early."
"If you don't pay anything, of course you won't be able to revive the dead tree."
Liang De shook his head deeply and said:
“If a person does not sacrifice, he will gain nothing.
In order to get something, you must pay the same price.
This is the principle of equivalent exchange, this is the reality of the world!"
Before he finished speaking, a circle of thunder light lit up under Liang De's feet, and his hair disappeared instantly as if it had been wiped away, leaving only a big, shiny bald head.
In Li Zhixian's surprised gaze, a strand of smooth black hair fell into her eyes. With her tyrannical talent in controlling her body, she knew that all her hair had grown back without reaching out to touch it.
"Brother Liang is the number one general of the Evil Thunder Sect in the 415 World. I can't help you grow your hair directly. Isn't it easy to ask for a replacement? You are ignorant!"
I originally wanted to do the work of Utopia Fist casually, and gave up my hair to ignore Brother Xian's transformation and divine punishment. I didn't expect that I ended up bald for this reason. Maybe there is such a thing as justice...
…
"Old Liang, you..."
Liang De chewed on his cigarette and released a stream of natural divine power that enveloped Zhao Yuhan to help her regain her energy and energy, and said to Li Zhixian:
"You look so ugly without hair. Brother, I will keep you bald for half a year. I will grow it back when I get an A-level evaluation at the end of the year and apply for it. Then what, you will buy me all the supper in the past six months, and I will work harder."
Jin, don’t hold me back by fishing every day.”
"Old Liang..."
"Um?"
"You just want to eat Lao Huang alive tonight, so I will tie him up for you myself."
"No need!" What mistake did Lao Huang make again?
Li Zhixian stretched his hands behind his head and tried to tie his long hair into a ponytail using a cordless braiding method, but failed several times because his new black hair was too soft.
"Relax and stop doing it. You are clumsy. Just let me do it."
Liang De felt like he was watching a novice playing games with his feet, so he simply walked behind her and gave her a loose and casual flower-petal bun in two or three strokes.
There was no headband, so he easily took off the ice blue bracelet from Li Zhixian's wrist, used the mysterious sea energy to turn the gorgeous bracelet into a hair tie, and wrapped it around the roots of the ball's bun.
"alright."
"Can you also braid hair?"
"I only know meatball head."
"I learned it from my childhood sweetheart, my ex-girlfriend. Unfortunately, she has now changed to a long, straight black hair style, so you don't have a chance to show off."
"It's nonsense. It was taught to me by the Hehe you dreamed about day and night, crying and shouting."
"Only a ghost will believe you."
Li Zhixian touched his hair tie and then his belly.
"hungry."
She glanced at Zhao Yuhan who was sitting on the couch. The little girl was sleeping soundly, and it was not easy to wake people up to make food.
She glanced at Liang De, who sighed and said:
"I'm asking Qin Xiao for permission to the refrigerator in the bookstore to see what's in it."
The two people walked towards the coffee and snack area. The bird painting spirit on the screen saw the two resident evil guests and hid behind the leaves in fear.
"Has your martial arts spirit's injury been healed?"
"I still have to make another trip. I saw you and Xiaohan in the Thunder Demon Sect's arcade and ran back in a hurry, missing seven courses of treatment."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Then you don't have to pay for an extra round trip?"
"Not always."
Liang De took a look at the Mao Yuan Gambling APP. Before he left, he put all his spare money on Zhao Yuhan and won more than three thousand crystal clusters. After deducting the extra travel expenses, he also made more than a thousand.
Haha, the life of Jieyuan God of Gamblers is so simple and boring.
"By the way, when Xiaohan wakes up, tell her about the "Inner Demons Diligence Method"."
"How to improve inner demons?"
Liang De gave her a brief explanation about Zhu Yuanzhi and the Thunder Demon Tribulation, and said:
"I'll tell you the details during dinner. It's not a big deal within the company. There are so many people who want to pursue their dreams, and Executive Zhu doesn't care about just one or two.
As long as she is willing to give up this shortcut forever, she can get it back.
My good-for-nothing uncle who just came back from another world doesn't have this charm. It's up to you, hero."
Hero, me?
Can I be considered a hero?
"Let me give it a try."
Ten minutes later, Liang De and Li Zhixian sat across from each other and ate two large plates of golden curry fried rice. Mr. Liang’s cooking skills were very average, but because he used a variety of high-quality ingredients, the fried rice tasted pretty good, fragrant and delicious.
Appetizing, but a bit dry.
When Liang De saw Li Zhixian coughing twice, he took a cup of Mortal Cultivation Coffee from Haina Huanzang and gave it to her.
Li Zhixian picked up the paper cup and took two sips, then coughed even harder.
"Ahem, cough, cough, why does it taste bitter?
Ahem...Old Liang, you are so despicable, you actually poisoned the water...Ahem..."
…
Xiangbei City Evil Disaster Bureau Building, lobby on the first floor.
Big-headed Yeager, who was ranked fifth among the top ten outstanding youths, walked into the elevator. He was carrying dozens of high-grade flue-cured tobacco produced by Zhongli, thinking fiercely in his heart:
"Zhongli is tired of smoking cigarettes, right? I'll give you two months' salary and I won't be tired of you!"
When the elevator door was about to close, a left hand wearing a gold Rolex Date-Just series Ref. with a black dial suddenly came in and steadily opened the elevator door.
"Yellow Bureau."
Yege subconsciously put the large pack of Zhongli flue-cured tobacco behind him, but because the target was too large, this tactical move had no effect.
"Datou, you bought so many cigarettes."
"Hmm, um." Da Tou lowered his head and did not dare to say more.
Huang Chuanchao clasped his hands behind his back and glanced down at the dozens of cigarettes carried by Ye Ge. Zhongli's flue-cured tobacco tasted just so so, but he hadn't smoked it for a long time.
He raised his head and frowned:
"Butou, I heard Commissioner Liang say that you have vowed to quit smoking. What's going on today? Our senior officer of the Evil Disaster Bureau, one of the top ten outstanding young people, just treated his promise as a joke?"
"Huang Bureau, I..."
"You've recently been dating Xiaoliu from the Chengnan training base."
"How do you know..."
"I don't know what's going on in the Xiangbei Bureau.
Datou, Xiaoliu is a doctor, and the most important thing is health. Since you sincerely want to have a relationship with this person, don’t be a fool and quit smoking while you are young. When you get to my age, you won’t be able to quit even if you want to.
.
Look at you, you are the only one among the top ten outstanding young people who smokes. Have you bought a house? Have you bought a car? How much money can you save in a month?
You still smoke such expensive cigarettes, you are such an adult, and you are not sensible at all, you..."
Huang Chuanchao checked into Genliqun Fuchun Mountain Residence in the elevator, and while puffing away his breath, he had an in-depth and heart-to-heart conversation with the big-headed Yege.
Ye Ge felt dizzy after hearing this. He had no idea what Huang Chuanchao was talking about. He only knew that when he walked out of the elevator, there was only a solitary piece of flue-cured cigarette left in his hand.
The heavy feeling in my hands not long ago was like a dream, disappearing without a trace.
…
Huang Chuanchao returned to the 3201 office with a large bag of flue-cured cigarettes. He just sat down and looked at stocks on his mobile phone for a while. After sighing for five or six times, he heard a rhythmic knock on the door.
"Come in... Xiaoyu, why don't you run over? Xiaoli is fine."
"Both Zhixian and Zhao Yuhan are fine. There is nothing serious. Bureau Huang, the candidates for the National May Day Labor Medal have been announced. All the active magical girls have voted for Commissioner Liang. Look..."
"Then let him go. You can just report it to the police. I can't tell that Lao Liang is quite popular with the little girls. It has only been a long time since he was transferred here and he was unanimously supported. Last time I saw several little girls giving snacks to him.
He is amazing."
"Commissioner Liang is indeed excellent and very popular."
Yu Peihuan smiled and said: "You are busy, I will go back first."
"Okay, you go about your business."
After a while, Huang Chuanchao received a very excited call. The person on the other side talked about the "general environment" and "fundamentals", saying that there would be a super invincible big Yang line that was rare in ten thousand years, and that there was a high probability that it could rise to unlimited levels.
Crazy, we should work hand in hand with him to buy the bottom and achieve financial freedom together.
Huang Chuanchao finally waited for him to finish speaking before he said:
"Old Liang, all 9 stocks owned by our Zhenzong have been suspended from trading. Let's talk about joining forces to hunt for the bottom later."
"Suspension?!"
"Yes, the limit has been lowered for so long, and the impact of General Pu's incident is getting bigger and bigger, so it is normal for the stock to be suspended.
But don’t worry, short-term trading suspension is the principle, and long-term trading suspension is the exception. General Manager Pu is already making efforts, and this time it will definitely be short-term.”
"How long is the short term?"
"Three to five hundred years, not a long time, just a blink of an eye... Hello, Lao Liang, hello?"
…
Yu Peihuan returned to office 3202. The light in the room was a bit dim, but she did not turn on the light.
Sitting behind her desk and approving a few documents, she shook off the pen in her hand, opened the drawer and replaced it with an ink cartridge.
She casually threw the used replacement ink cartridge into the trash can. The empty plastic tube fell on the empty tequila bottle in the trash can, making an unexpected sound in the quiet office.
Yu Peihuan looked at the empty wine bottles in the trash can and was lost in thought for a while. She opened the bottom drawer on the left. The drawer was padded with a layer of soft black velvet, and on top of the velvet were two half-empty bottles of spirits.
, a bottle of gin, a bottle of vodka.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The two bottles of wine are arranged on the left and right, and there is an empty space in the middle, which is where the bottle of Golden Happy Tequila originally was placed.
She walked to the bookshelf against the wall, lit up the miniature secret key magic circle in her palm, and pressed it gently on the bookshelf.
Two bookshelves about 2.5 meters wide were sunk into the magic circle on the ground, revealing a wine cabinet hidden on an entire wall behind the bookshelves.
The wine cabinets with more than ten floors were filled with only half bottles of various spirits left.
Yu Peihuan picked a bottle of Grand Marnier liqueur and stroked the round wax seal embedded in the center of the bottle's shoulder with a nostalgic smile on his face.
She put the half bottle of Grand Marnier liqueur into the middle of the desk drawer, closed the drawer, pushed it with both hands, and sat on the office chair with her eyes closed, spinning around.
In the quiet office, a song like jasmine tea sounded softly.
…
In the coffee and snack area of Yingxuetang Xiangbei branch, Li Zhixian and Zhao Yuhan chatted for a long time.
Li Zhixian adjusted his retro-style round glasses, took a sip of water and continued:
"You have learned two methods of diligence, which means you have given up two things.
The prerequisite for learning to 'concentrate' is to abandon the people and things that annoy you the most. The prerequisite for learning to 'enjoy yourself' is to give up those so-called low-level interests that you consider to be entertainment.
The further you go on the path of advancement, the more things you will abandon and forget, and in the end you will just dream.
You are just getting started and can give up at any time. Those things that you have abandoned and forgotten before can be remembered again after giving up.
But if you choose to give up, you will never be able to learn the method of improving inner demons again. The author of this book always only gives people one chance.
In short, if you choose the path of improving your inner demons, you will give up a lot of things, but it may also become very powerful.
I have already told you the advantages and disadvantages of this technique in the middle and later stages. The final choice is up to you."
Zhao Yuhan held a silver spatula and carefully spread cream on the Italian dome strawberry semi-frozen cake, doing the final decoration work. She lowered her head and asked:
"If you choose this path, will you become more powerful than Sister Zhixian?"
"It's possible, I'm not very good."
"Then I won't practice anymore."
"Um?"
"There are many, many things that I don't want to forget, just like the memories I remembered this time. The reason why I have been working hard is in these memories.
Dreams are born from the things I own. I realize my dreams for the people and things I already own.
If you forget all these things, your efforts will be meaningless.
Anyway, I just need to be as good as Sister Zhixian from now on."
Zhao Yuhan handed the finished cake to Li Zhixian, raising the corners of her mouth, revealing two small pear dimples.
The dark red blazing heart light in her sea of consciousness gradually receded, and in the corner of the Yingxue Hall library area, a black-covered volume of "Inner Demons Diligence Method" reappeared.
…
As night falls, thousands of houses are lit with lights.
Zhao Yuhan stood in front of the door for a long time with her schoolbag on her back, and finally reached out and pressed the fingerprint reader to open the door.
"Mom, I'm back."
