    Endless friendship (3)

    The boy was stunned: “Who are you? Are you the store manager?”

    Jiang Lingyi, who was quietly observing the situation outside the door, frowned and realized that he could no longer wait and see what happened. If he continued like this, there would be big trouble, so he strode into the store calmly.

    “I’m the store manager.” He pretended to be calm and ordered the confused vampire at the front desk.”Let the children put on some pants first.”

    The boy glanced suspiciously back and forth at Jiang Lingyi and the naked man, showing an expression of realization, and then he became proud, as if he had grasped some huge handle: “Oh~ So you are that muddy NPC! It turns out that your store is illegally employing child labor! Maybe it is also suspected of filthy love. Report it, you must report it!”

    Although the young man didn’t understand what child labor and dirty love were, he at least understood the word “kid” and heard the word “mud”. He thought he was being scolded and immediately got angry: “Who are you calling a child?” He raised his right hand high and spread his fingers, as if he wanted to grab something from the air.

    “Thunder and lightning!”

    Flashing platinum sparks entwined with electricity gathered in his palm, condensing into a small beam of light.

    “Imperial law——”

    There was a sizzling sound, like a short-circuited current, flickering on and off a few times before weakly leaking from the fingertips.

    …

    …………

    ………………

    The silence in the store was deafening.

    “Why don’t you say anything!” The young man became angry.

    I’m actually embarrassed by this, but don’t feel embarrassed about being completely naked…

    The boy also came to his senses and made up another plot of the miserable world based on child labor: “I would like to say, if I am not a little crazy, how can I be squeezed by a black-hearted shop like you, even without clothes? Report it, you must report it!” At first, he was unreasonable and a little guilty, but now he felt that he had a legitimate reason to target the shop, and he became a messenger of justice and became righteous.

    “Well, guest, you can take a rest on the sofa here, drink some water and eat some snacks. Wait for a while and let him put on some pants. Let’s sit down and discuss this matter slowly.” Jiang Lingyi pressed the boy down on the sofa in the hall with half a request and half a push, showing that he hoped to resolve the situation peacefully, and first went to the office inside to interrogate the situation.

    The vampire forcefully dragged the boy to the employee lounge and asked him to look in the full-length mirror to see his prehistoric savage appearance. His eyes widened in disbelief and his face turned red. His arrogance was suddenly extinguished in half. Several people stopped him desperately to prevent him from hitting the wall to death.

    Jiang Lingyi listened to Brother Bandage’s report in the office and realized that this young man appeared out of thin air, and it was probably related to the fluctuation of the Yin-Yang clutch formation.Originally, I wanted to explain to the customer that he was not a store clerk, thus proving that no child labor was employed. However, judging from the circumstances and timing of his appearance, this misunderstanding was so deep that there was almost no room for excuse.

    There was a commotion of joy outside the door, and Lou Xian finally arrived belatedly.

    “I sensed the fluctuations of the formation.”

    “Sir, where have you been?” Brother Bandage finally felt relieved, “We can’t find you anywhere.”

    “Sorry, we went a bit far and it took some time to get back… It’s not important. What happened?”

    Jiang Lingyi was a little concerned about where Lou Xian had gone, but now was not the time to ask such questions.Brother Bandage recounted the whole story again. Halfway through, a disheveled figure burst into the scene, shouting, and it was that young man.

    “Where’s the big devil Lou Xian! Hurry up and capture him! I’m going to put you to death on the spot today so that you can no longer bring trouble to the world!”

    The young man is very energetic, and it seems that he has chosen to forget the glorious debut just now. The ill-fitting employee uniform hangs loosely on his body, and his ragged hair was cut in a hurry… Very good, he has been promoted from a prehistoric savage to a waif.

    “Do you know Lou Xian?”

    “You know me?”

    Jiang Lingyi and Lou Xian said in unison.

    When the young man saw Lou Xian, he was startled: “You…are Lou Xian? Why is it different from what I heard? Lou Xian is obviously a -”

    Lou Xian rarely interrupted others: “I am the exiled Lou Xian, there is no doubt about it. Before you want to arrest me, please explain it clearly to everyone.”

    The young man stared down at his toes, with his hands behind his back, refusing to be lenient.

    “You should have felt that this world is different from where we came from.” Lou Xian persuaded gently, but there was a certain cold pressure in his soft voice.

    The boy finally sat down dejectedly.

    “I’m Pangmei,” he said.

    “I have heard of this name.” Brother Bandage recalled, “It seems to be the leader of those annoying ghosts in the heaven. Master Lou Xian devotes himself to cultivation and may not know much about the affairs of the three realms. We have all heard of Pangmei from the ‘Thunder Prison’. It is said that he is a very nosy guy and claims to be a righteous partner.”

    Jiang Lingyi burst out laughing, attracting three people’s attention. He coughed twice and lowered his lips: “It’s okay, it’s okay, you continue.”

    Lou Xian nodded: “I see, why did you come to me? My sentence of exile was reached through the unanimous decision of the three realms. There shouldn’t be any injustice.”

    “Why not!” Pang Mei was dissatisfied, “You should be imprisoned for life! Do you want me to stand by and watch if you allow such a cruel, cold-blooded, evil demon to go to another world and harm living beings in another place?”

    Cruel, cruel and full of evil?Is he talking about Lou Xian?Jiang Lingyi could not associate these two words with him.

    The other two were indifferent to this fierce accusation.Brother Bandage had an expressionless face: “Oh, so you secretly passed through the gate of time and space and traveled here just to hunt down Lord Lou Xian.”

    “I didn’t want to kill him.” Pang Mei said plausibly, “I have no power to overturn the Three Realms Trial. I just want to take Lou Xian back to the Heavenly Prison and keep him under strict supervision.” He added, “And educate him.”

    Jiang Lingyi laughed again.

    “Pfft-cough, uh, you heard wrong.”

    “You’re obviously smiling!” This little policeman from another world is quite irritable.

    “Really not.” Jiang Lingyi said innocently, “I just thought of some happy things.”

    Lou Xian said: “It is impossible to open the door of time and space with your own strength. At best, it can only tear a crack. You have failed.”

    Pangmei wilted again.

    “What do you mean?” Jiang Lingyi didn’t understand.

    Lou Xian briefly explained.In other words, because of his lack of kung fu, this kid’s time travel was incomplete, resulting in the appearance of a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boy. Due to the thin energy of the earth, it was difficult for him to use his lightning magic, which was similar to the situation of other demons and ghosts who came through time.If he hadn’t borrowed the power of the Yin-Yang Clutch Formation by chance, he wouldn’t even be able to transform into a human form, and could only squirm on the ground like mud.

    And he couldn’t go back to his original world, and even Lou Xian was helpless.

    Jiang Lingyi wanted to ridicule him for bringing trouble to Lou Xian, but now he had to take him to solve another bigger trouble outside, so he had to suppress his gloating mood.

    Only then did Pang Mei notice Jiang Lingyi behind the store manager’s desk. He looked up and down and snorted: “But you are more miserable than I thought. You have started to grovel to humans.”

    …Who on earth almost became a mud monster?

    Jiang Lingyi touched his chin. Brother Bandage knew at a glance that the scheming (acting) store manager had some ulterior motives. Since Pang Mei was Lord Lou Xian’s enemy, there was no need for him to say anything.

    “No matter where you come from or how powerful you are, you still can’t even make a spark.” Jiang Lingyi stood up and grabbed his back collar, “You scared our guests, so you have to apologize.”

    Pang Mei struggled fiercely: “Why do you want me to apologize! Wasn’t that person the one who made unreasonable troubles in the first place?”

    “That’s what the service industry is like. Let me teach you the first lesson of survival on earth: be a grandson.”

    “Please wait a moment.” Lou Xian said, “Pang Mei has no source of power and will turn back into mud soon. I need to connect him to the formation.”

    “Who wants the unjust power you exploited from others?” Pang Mei was still speaking harshly, but his eyes showed the fear of not turning back into mud, “Don’t come close to me! Your, your evil methods…”

    Lou Xian turned a deaf ear and approached him, turning his head to his side, just as he had opened his spiritual vision for Jiang Lingyi.

    “Even if it’s an evil law, you only have the choice to accept it.”

    Lou Xian fixed Pangmei’s cheeks with both hands to ensure that he would not move randomly. His foreheads were facing each other and the tips of his noses were touching. He closed his eyes. Pangmei suddenly became quiet and his breathing relaxed, like a docile little animal. His weak body trembled slightly under the employee’s uniform.

    Pangmei, who received the power, was like a fish returning to the pond after being stranded. The cool wind-like breath enveloped him, dispelling the suffocating pressure. He understood why the method of conversion was called an evil method, because the power was too easy, too comfortable, too addictive, and its essence was so filthy.This is a temptation that any dharma that requires penance must resist.

    Once you fall into it, you will be controlled by the other party from body to mind.

    The human who claimed to be the store manager… didn’t understand how terrifying Lou Xian was.

    There are traces of recent spells on his body. He must be under control. He must find an opportunity to tell this poor man the truth.

    Jiang Lingyi stared stiffly at this affectionate (?) scene. Fortunately, it didn’t require kissing like the last ceremony, it was just forehead to forehead, but… you kid, your body is too close!He silently clenched his fists.After that, we must let this guy see the untouchable nature of the people on Earth!

    Brother Bandage implemented the Lezi people’s spirit of adding fuel to the fire: “The conversion method practiced by Master Lou Xian is to have more effective contact areas with each other.”

    Then, the vinegar tank exploded.
