Raising the Demon

Chapter 685

Li Kaishi walked slowly in the crowded streets of Shangjing.

Those who saw him frowned and stepped aside, as if there was something dirty on him.

Several times, Li Kaishi frowned, but he still sighed and stretched his brows.

In fact, I don't blame the people in Shangjing, because Li Kaishi is really poor compared to these people in Shangjing.

He was carrying a burden on his back, which he had brought from Zaitian Mansion. He had gone through a lot of hardships with him, and it was already dilapidated.The clothes on his body are also very old, and even some patches have fallen off.

Zaitian Prefecture is the most severely attacked place by evil spirits. Li Kaishi and others who survived the catastrophe in Zaitian Mansion were finally brought to the kingdom of demons after suffering.

These days, they have been working hard to build their new home. Even Li Kaishi put down the scriptures he read every day and devoted himself to hard work.

He took off his green skirt, put on bunt clothes, moved stones with others, built houses, and cultivated farmland, almost forgetting that he was still a scholar.

At that time, Li Kaishi had a thought in his mind, what is the use of reading?It can't stop the invasion of evil spirits, it can't save the common people, and even the work is not as powerful as those farmers and craftsmen.

But just after the initial hardships passed, there was a string in Li Kaishi's heart that always sounded inadvertently, reminding him that he is a scholar, he once had great ambitions, and he also wanted to Serving as an official will benefit one party.

Just like... just like Master Zi.

In the Tianfu Township Examination, Li Kaishi was on the list. Although he did not get any official position and his grades were not outstanding, he still had ideals and ambitions.

But he is not that kind of gifted person. All his knowledge comes from hard work, and every bit of knowledge is soaked in sweat and hard work.

And this once extinguished hope suddenly rekindled one day.

Seven days ago, the Kingdom of Fairy Fairies issued an announcement that all students who have passed the provincial examination of the university, if they are willing to go to Shangjing, can report to Yan Xiaolei, and the Kingdom of Fairy Fairy will arrange for them to go to Shangjing to participate in the test!
As soon as the news came out, the entire kingdom of demons and immortals exploded. I don't know how many people were so excited that they burst into tears and knelt down and wailed loudly.

The hope that I thought had left me a long time ago, unexpectedly reappeared.

Who is willing to give up?

Thus, Li Kaishi stood on the streets of Shangjing.

Even though it is in a place like Shangjing, where land is very expensive, Zibaifeng still provided them with a mansion for them to live in, provided them with the best environment, and even provided them with silver taels as a subsidy, although not much, but saving money This point can fully support them in food, clothing and flowers, and even participate in some poetry and essay meetings.

But Li Kaishi and many others were unwilling to drag Zi Baifeng any longer when they arrived in Shangjing.

He feels that Zi Baifeng can no longer be troubled all the time. Others can be generous, but you can't always accept it, take it for granted and even ask for more.

So Li Kaishi decided to find a place to settle down temporarily, and then study hard to complete all the homework that was delayed. As for the poetry meeting, it didn't mean much to him.

He doesn't have too much ambition. The title of the gold list is not the only purpose. Even if there is no title of the gold list, other people have the opportunity to get the opportunity. If you get good grades, you will be able to get an official job, and you will have the possibility of follow-up development.

But Li Kaishi went around and found that Shangjing was more unfriendly than he imagined. He couldn't find a place to live, so he could only knock on the doors of private houses one by one, hoping to rent a spare room.Many people are even unwilling to listen to him, as long as they see his clothes, they shut him down.

The process was difficult, and Li Kaishi seemed to have never done such a thing in his life.

But it turned out to be more difficult.

Li Kaishi turned around, and finally came to the place he left, near Gui Moxuan, he was hesitating and entangled in his heart, whether he should go back to Zijia's other courtyard or not.

There seems to be such a subtle conflict between integrity and reality, and it is always so difficult to choose.

It seemed that God did not want Li Kaishi to suffer too much, but luck finally came. When he knocked on the door of a big family, the man who looked like a housekeeper took a look at him and said: "This scholar , are you here to rush for the exam?"

"Yes, this is my document. I took the provincial examination in Zaitianzhou."

"I don't understand... In this way, I will ask my master. To be honest, my young master is going to take part in the university, but he still wanders around all day long and refuses to work hard. My master has always wanted to find a Companion, we do have a spare house, but it is impossible for our Song family to rent out our house. What kind of dignity is that, and we will definitely be laughed at by the neighbors. If you are willing to be a companion, we can accommodate one time."

The old housekeeper's proposal made Li Kaishi struggle a bit.

Li Kaishi has also seen what companion reading is. If it sounds good, it is companion reading. If it sounds bad, it is a book boy, just a servant.

But if there is anything he has learned during this time in the kingdom of demons and immortals, it is that as long as he eats with his own hands and does the right thing, then there is nothing inferior to others.It doesn't matter if you are a reading companion or a book boy, as long as you can maintain your own food, clothing and expenses in the future, and you can pass the provincial examination smoothly, why bother about other things?

Why do you care so much when you eat your own food?

So Li Kaishi agreed.

Hearing Li Kaishi's promise, the old housekeeper nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Then you wait here, I'll ask the master for instructions." Turned around and left.Li Kaishi was actually hungry, so he squatted down, leaned against the corner, and looked up at Zi Baifeng on the high platform in the distance.

There are two streets away from the place where the high platform is located. He is not a monk, and he can't see or hear what Zi Baifeng is saying, and he doesn't know what's going on there. He only hears people making noise. shouting.

Li Kaishi squinted his eyes, looked at Zi Baifeng who was at the highest place, and thought in his mind: "If you stand at such a high place, you must be very happy."

But he thought again: "Except for a great talent like Master Zi, who else is qualified to stand at the highest place?"

Even though he thought about it, he still couldn't help but imagine that he would stand there, receiving the attention of thousands of people, waiting to soar into the sky.

But the sound of his stomach rumbling quickly brought him back to reality, and only a few people were discussing by his ears.

"That person, what's his name? What's his name?"

"The top one seems to be called Zibuyu."

Li Kaishi turned his face and took a look, he was talking about two idle young people who seemed to be scholars, they were coming out of the side door and stopped here.

"Brother Zhang, you didn't go to this poetry meeting? It seems to be very popular."

"With my little talent, it would be embarrassing to go up, why bother to show your face, brother Song, you didn't go either?"

"I did take a look, but I came down soon." Brother Song smiled and said, "But I saw Mr. Zhu was competing with others in poetry."

"Who is so overreaching, competing with Zhu Caizi in poetry and prose? Is this boring? Ah, could it be that Mr. Wen is back? If Mr. Wen comes back and competes with Mr. Zhu on the same stage, then I will go and see ..."

"Whether Mr. Wen is back, I don't know, I heard that he came from a place in the west called Tian, ​​what's his name..."

"Then there is no need to look forward to it. Outside of Shangjing, there are no talented people!"

Li Kaishi frowned, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but didn't speak.

This is Shangjing, not Zaitian Mansion, so it's better not to cause trouble.

Li Kaishi has never been an impulsive person, on the contrary, he is calm and decisive, if not for this, he would not have survived in Zaitianfu.

He didn't want to hear the words that made him uncomfortable, but the voices of the two kept drilling into his head.

"That kid... By the way, I don't speak a word. I guess he is a person with little talent and learning. On his one-third of an acre of land, he can be the king and hegemony. When he comes to Shangjing, he can't even be considered a fart..."

Hearing this, Li Kaishi finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He can bear others looking down on him, but he absolutely, definitely can't bear others insulting Zi Baifeng!

It's not just his benefactor, Li Kaishi doesn't even know how he feels about Zi Baifeng, maybe he has a bit of the psychology of people chasing stars nowadays.

"You guys are nothing! Without Mr. Zi, you are nothing!" Li Kaishi was furious, threw the luggage in his hand to the ground, and suddenly stood up.

When he heard them say that there are no talented people outside of Shangjing, Li Kaishi was only a little angry in his heart, these shallow people, so what?
But when he heard these two people say by name that Zi Baifeng was just a man for fame, he couldn't bear it at all, and exploded immediately.

You idiots, what do you know?Without Master Zi's bloody battle, how can you stand here and judge others?You just cry and wait for the world to shatter, and wait for death with peace of mind!

Without Master Zi, you just wait to be parasitized by demons, swallowed by monsters, and treated as puppets by immortals as batteries!
Without Master Zi, you are nothing!

Li Kaishi yelled angrily, but only changed the contemptuous eyes of Song and Zhang, "Where is the beggar from, what does the uncle's conversation have to do with you, go, go, don't dirty the gate of my house!"

Li Kaishi hesitated for a moment, the feeling of emptiness in his stomach and the weakness of his limbs made him... endure it.

Although he really wanted to stand up for Master Zi's reputation, but now he was so hungry that he had no energy, and he heard what the other party said.

"Don't dirty the gate of my house!"

This is the young master of this family?
No wonder, surnamed Song, isn't Song Zhai behind him?
He still has to rely on Song's house behind him for food, so bear it, bear it.

At this time, Li Kaishi despised himself a little.

What about the righteous indignation just now?What about the earliest festivals?
Sure enough, reality is the easiest way to change a person.

Fortunately, the two of them changed the topic and stopped discussing the poetry meeting.

He squatted in the corner, listening to the two people, Song and Zhang chatting non-stop, from the sky to the earth, from the south to the north.

But before I knew it, I started talking about topics that shouldn't be talked about.

"I heard that demons are making troubles in other places now. If you want me to say that the government is too weak, no, it's easy to catch any demons, monsters, or fallen immortals under the current Emperor's Majesty. Done."

"That's right, my emperor's talent is simple and easy to grasp. This is the emperor's style. I love you, the emperor... I heard that the Holy Majesty personally took action, holding a golden spear, and stabbed the fallen fairy with one shot... "

"That's right, what kind of monster still wanted to hold the Holy Majesty hostage with a small favor, but was cut off by the Holy Majesty's tail..."

Li Kai frowned upon hearing this ingenious remark, and even shot the Golden Immortal, how could he be fighting on horseback?That's a battle of golden immortals, what are you guys playing for?Cut off the tail with a sword?It was the Golden Immortal who cut off the candle dragon's tail, not the emperor!
Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the battle between the demon general and the real immortal has already reached the level of destroying the world.

How can you fools imagine the battle of the Golden Immortals?
That was a battle that could destroy the world!
Although Li Kaishi also heard it from other people's mouths, but it was from the storyteller of Liyuanzong.

People of the Liyuan Sect practice in a very peculiar way. They are like bards. They process various deeds a little, weave them into stories, and spread them around. They use this as their practice.

However, these people cannot be blamed for their ignorance. Cultivators are a very small number no matter where they are. Before he really saw the powerful means, how could he imagine the ability of these powerful people to turn their hands into clouds and rain?But after listening for a while, he gradually felt that something was wrong, and raised his head and asked, "Who did you listen to these things?"

"Who did you hear? It's been rumored in the streets and alleys, and our sage is the Zhongxing Mingjun who is rarely seen in thousands of years."

"What about the demon fairy? Why didn't you mention the demon fairy? The demon fairy Bai Feng?"

These people don't know Zibuyu, that's justifiable, Zibuyu's reputation has not spread to the world.

But Zi Baifeng... don't they know?
"Who is Zi Baifeng?" the man surnamed Zhang asked doubtfully.

"Zi Baifeng, I know. That's an idiot." The man surnamed Song laughed loudly, "The Holy Majesty has already arranged everything and let him carry it out, but something went wrong, which made the demons and monsters have a dangerous relationship." Taking advantage of this opportunity, a few little evil spirits made him flustered, and the Holy One needed to personally act, this person..."

"Shut up!" Li Kaishi couldn't bear it anymore.

Stupidity is not terrible, but there is a limit to stupidity!
Why are these Shangjing people so glamorous in appearance, so stupid?
Even though the world is already in crisis, he still numbs himself, pretending that he is living in a peaceful and prosperous world.

He mustered up the strength to feed, and punched the man surnamed Song on the eye socket. The man surnamed Song immediately howled like a pig.

"Why do you hit someone!" The man surnamed Zhang stepped forward fiercely, wanting to hit Li Kaishi, but was shocked by Li Kaishi's angry eyes, he just supported the man surnamed Song, and yelled a few words in a bravado .

"You are the ones who beat you, you nonsense bastards!" Li Kaishi yelled angrily: "Without Mr. Zi, you don't know how long you have been dead. Without Mr. Zi, you don't even have to take part in the imperial examination. If you can’t eat it, if you don’t have Master Zi, you...you’re all shit!"

At this moment, the door of the Song family opened with a bang, and the old butler said: "Scholar, my master said that I can ask you to be a companion. What are you doing? You...you are an adult! No! Yes, the young master is injured, come quickly!"

Following the shout of the old housekeeper, seven or eight people rushed out and surrounded Li Kaishi for three floors.

"You're just talking nonsense, Zi Baifeng is a fart, this kind of waste material, only because of the kindness of the Holy House, can it..."

"You...you don't have Master Zi, and your emperor is nothing!" Li Kaishi was furious, and rushed up like a mad tiger, kicking and hitting Young Master Song, several servants hurriedly charged Go up, hold him down, pull him away.

"Come on, this man actually slandered the Holy Majesty, hurry up and invite Liu Xunzheng to come!" Young Master Song's mouth was slanted, his speech was slurred, but he still struggled and shouted, and gave Li Kaishi a buckle. hat.

……

When Li Kaishi was beaten, Zi Baifeng was opening the ink one by one and showing it to everyone.

Gui Qingmo, Guixiemo, Guishenmo, Guiyaomo, all four kinds of ink were presented in front of everyone.

Zhu Youcai's eyes suddenly changed. He widened his eyes and roared angrily, "You... you are... cheating!"

Not to mention other things, just talk about the "Gui Xie ink" formed by the condensed death energy. The death energy floating out of it, as long as it is contaminated with a little bit, can abolish his years of penance. Come to paint, even if you don't dare to get close.

"Young master, please be calm and don't be impatient. The ink of our Gui Moxuan is not what you imagined. Although it contains death energy, it is all sealed in the ink, and there is absolutely no trace of death energy in it. Dissipate outside, please rest assured about this." After speaking, the members of the Zi clan reached out and took the Gui Xiemo out of the brocade box and held it in their hands.

Zhu Youcai waited for his hands, and after a long time, he realized in astonishment that it was exactly as he said, this Gui Xiemo only felt sinister and evil, but he really didn't let out any dead energy.

"The same is true for other types of ink." The Zi clan said humanely.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar.

The boss of Baomozhai jumped angrily below: "Gimmicks, they are all gimmicks, useless gimmicks!"

Under the stage, Zi Wu raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

A gimmick, why didn't she know it was a gimmick?
Among these four types of ink, only Guiqing ink has practical effects. The other three types only seal three kinds of aura into the ink. What's the use of this method?At first, the son Wu didn't quite understand either.

But Zi Baifeng told her: "This is called showing off skills. It doesn't need to be practical. It just tells others that we, Gui Moxuan, can do this kind of thing. In the whole world, no one can do it except us, Gui Moxuan." !"

"Can this work?" Zi Wu was still a little puzzled.

"Think about it, in this whole world, except for your son, who else can turn everything into a demon? Who else in this world, except your husband, can turn everything into a treasure and rotten wood into a living thing? In the world, besides you, who else has such a good son, such a good husband? Thinking of this, are you proud? Will others envy you when they see you?"

Zi Wu nodded ignorantly. Although she was quite business minded, Zi Baifeng came from another world where business was more developed.

"Yes, to make others envious, jealous and hateful, and only to speak ill behind their backs, is called showing off skills."

Zibai Fengdao.

At this time, the expression on her face quickly disappeared, and soon changed to worry.

Because she is the best son in the world, there is a fire in her heart.
