Chapter 46

Ever since he became notorious in the detective world, Laobie transformed the detective agency into a private club for receiving customers. Occasionally, someone would come to him to do business, so that the client's privacy could be better protected.However, at this moment, there was a long queue in front of the clubhouse, including men, women, young and old.

Teng Yao asked a little doll who seemed to be five or six years old why he came to line up, and the doll said that he wanted to find his father who went far away last month.

Five or six-year-old children have not yet formed a clear understanding of lifespan and death. They only pay attention to what they get, but they don’t care what they lose. This kind of exchange seems to respect the client, but in essence it is unequal deprivation.

Teng Yao's fists were clenched, and he rushed in angrily, but was blocked by the crowd queuing at the door.

"I didn't look at the queue, go behind the queue!"

"Thinking that I can be blocked because of my good looks."

"Who is this, who is not in a hurry, isn't it all lined up?"

"Why are you still squeezing in? Do you have the quality?"

"..."

The noise at the door intensified, and Teng Yao was surrounded, unable to get in or out.

Lu Yuan wanted to help, but he couldn't even squeeze in the crowd, and he couldn't be rough with these ordinary people, so he was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped.

Inside the door, Old Turtle leaned against the wall with his arms around his shoulders, watching the farce at the door with a half-smile.

The wall beside him darkened, and a figure suddenly appeared, it was Lu Yuan who came in through the wall.

The old turtle beckoned to him, smiling like a chrysanthemum on the grave in late autumn.

Lu Yuanqing pressed his face and asked, "How long do you plan to watch the fun?"

The old turtle spread his hands: "How can I be the one to watch the excitement? How can I, a recovering from a serious illness, be able to suppress that battle?"

The corners of Lu Yuan's eyes twitched: "If you hadn't acted recklessly, how could this have happened."

"How can this be blamed on me?" Old Turtle leaned his back against the wall, looking like he had nothing to do with himself, "Do you think it's ironic? You are obviously doing it for their own good, but they will only treat you as evil people. "

Lu Yuan looked at the door, Teng Yao was pulled by someone's hair, and he was in a state of embarrassment, as if he had become a vent, those who were eager to do things or had their own ghosts eagerly tore off their painted skins, venting their innermost feelings Ugly fire of lust.

Honestly, disgusting.

Lu Yuan closed his eyes, forcing himself not to touch the last thread in his heart.He has been in the underworld for so many years, and he has never met any kind of person or dealt with any kind of ghost, whether it is a person or a ghost, selfishness is a karma that no one can avoid, and he is no exception.

For so many years of perseverance, even dragging Ye to accompany him, it is not because of his selfishness.What does it have to do with him just letting this yin and yang completely collapse?This was not his responsibility, but he insisted on carrying it on his shoulders, and he even hurt the people he cared about most.

But he just can't let it go, he has seen as much beauty as he has seen as much ugliness, every soul has both good and evil sides, and there has never been a conclusion whether people are inherently good or inherently evil.Evil people can't escape the obvious laws of heaven, and good people will also get blessings in previous lives, provided that the balance in this world can be maintained.

"Can you pretend that you don't exist without seeing or hearing?" You's voice came into Lu Yuan's ears coldly, full of sarcasm piercing through Lu Yuan's already bloody heart, "You have the ability to save him, why didn't you? Just because they are mortals with no power to restrain a chicken? Those ungrateful guys just look ordinary, but each of them can tear him apart. Now he is just an ordinary person with no power to restrain a chicken , why don't you think for him from his perspective how desperate he is now, how much he longs for you to save him?"

"I'm an ordinary person, but I'm not powerless." With a steady and powerful cadence, Teng Yao, who was in a mess, straightened his clothes and walked in, squinting at the old turtle, then walked up to Lu Yuan and held Lu Yuan in his arms. With trembling hands, "Don't panic, everything is under control."

As early as when he set off, Teng Yao had anticipated such conflicts. He knew too well the dark side of humans and ghosts. If luck fell directly from heaven, some people might still be able to maintain their sanity. When destroying, people will release the most insidious stubbornness, and they will never die.

Ghost killing and hurting people are serious crimes. It is impossible for him to let Lu Yuan get such a bad name. Otherwise, no matter how great the achievements are, they will not be worth the numerous crimes. It will be even more difficult for him and Lu Yuan to return to the ordinary.

And red-eyed people can't listen to the persuasion, so what should we do?

There is no evil fire that cannot be extinguished by a rainstorm. If there is, then add some lightning special effects that look like they can smash the living at any time.

Teng Yao shook his wet mobile phone, and joked: "It's rare that the weather forecast is accurate once, otherwise you will have to work hard."

Lu Yuan twitched the corners of his mouth, smiling uglier than crying.

Teng Yao poked his lips in distaste, as if teasing a child whose favorite toy had been robbed.

The old turtle's molars gritted loudly: "Brother Ye, why are you obsessed with obsession?"

Teng Yao turned his face, the gentle smile dissipated in an instant, and stared at the old turtle's bean eyes with inhuman red light without any warmth: "Why are you so obsessed with ruining this prosperous world?"

You Sheng yelled at the top of his lungs: "I just want you to see clearly that everything you have done is meaningless. Without the Underworld, they will also kill themselves! They are not worth it!"

Teng Yao's gaze became even colder: "You are not worth my wasting words."

The old turtle's pupils were as red as blood, and a red tear fell from the corner of his eyes.

"Then you kill me. If I die, you can keep this peaceful and prosperous world."

A cold light flashed in the palm of the old turtle, Lu Yuan hurried to block it, but the old turtle sideways avoided him, and stuffed the dagger that shone with a gloomy cold light into Teng Yao's hand.

Teng Yao didn't answer, and the dagger fell to the ground with a clanging sound.

Teng Yao's voice was colder than that of the blade: "You know I can't kill you, why bother."

The corner of Old Turtle's mouth twitched, and a creepy giggle came out of his throat: "Yeah, you can't kill me anymore, you are just a waste now."

Leaning back and lazily sticking to the wall, the old turtle looked at the two of them with a sinister smile: "Then why are you still looking for me?"

Know it with reason and move it with emotion?The world's most useless means.

Teng Yao was at a loss for words, yes, what did they come to find you for?If they can reach an agreement, the two brothers will not be separated to this point.If he fights recklessly, Lu Yuan may not be sure of winning.He also didn't want to see the two most important people in his life fighting to the death, even if the three of them could never return to the past.

Seeing Teng Yao's serious face, the old turtle suddenly laughed out loud: "Brother Ye, you are ruthless, but I, as a younger brother, cannot be ungrateful. In view of your love for protecting me for so many years, I will give you a chance to save the world. Chance."

He glanced at Lu Yuan, and said with deep meaning: "I only give you this great merit, my good brother."

After speaking, his eyes fell on Teng Yao's face.

Laobie bypassed the two of them, went straight to the reception room inside, pushed open the door, and leaned against the door panel to look at Teng Yao with a half-smile.

Teng Yao looked at Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan frowned tightly, holding Ten Yao's wrist firmly with one hand.

Teng Yao patted the back of his hand, You didn't need to go around such a big circle if you wanted to kill him, he just saw what You had to say.

Lu Yuan finally let go of his hand and watched Teng Yao walk into the dark door, which was closed in front of him with a soft knock.

The interior was rebuilt into an antique cottage, exactly the same as what Ye Heyou saw through the half-open bamboo window in the rich man's house before his death.

The old turtle sat cross-legged at the table and poured a cup of hot tea for Tengyao.

Teng Yao was moved, but his face was still frosty. He sat across the table and glanced at the tea without moving.

Old Turtle didn't care, and picked up his own cup like a sample.

Teng Yao was very impatient but he didn't urge him. This situation made him feel in a trance, as if these thousands of years were all a dream, and he and Ah You were still two poor but innocent teenagers.

After a while, You finally spoke.

"Yuan is lying to you."

Teng Yao raised his eyes, his eyes were full of mockery.

You laughed at yourself.

"Brother Ye, I'm not a child anymore, I'm not stupid."

Regarding Yuan's identity, You has indeed been brooding for many years, but the three of them have shared joys and sorrows for thousands of years, his feelings for Yuan are not only hatred, he has the most basic judgment for Yuan, even if Yuan is a scheming A villain like him would not do bad things to Ye, not to mention that Ye, who became Teng Yao, would no longer be useful, so Yuan Da didn't need to waste time on him.

In the past, Yuan might not have confessed to Ye, but after his fuss in the hospital, as long as Yuan was not stupid, he would take the initiative to explain his background. How could he be so stupid as to take this as an important hole card.

Teng Yao's expression loosened slightly, and he was finally willing to look at the person opposite him.

The old turtle smiled wryly, and on his shriveled face, there was a childish look that only a teenager could have.

"Brother Ye, you were atoning for my sins back then, even if I didn't reincarnate, what you offset was my sins."

Teng Yao's whole body trembled, and a great chill came out from the bottom of his heart, and spread all over his body in an instant.

When the rain stopped, the closed wooden door opened, and the old turtle put one hand behind his back, asking Teng Yao to leave respectfully.

Lu Yuan hurried up and felt relieved when he saw that he was fine.

The two walked slowly all the way, avoiding the stagnant water that could be seen everywhere.

Lu Yuan hesitated to speak: "He..."

"He really wanted to give me a great merit, to end the grievances between me and him," Teng Yao smiled wearily, "with this merit, it should be able to offset your sins of those years, and this wave of crisis has also been resolved , there will be no new storms in a short period of time, then you can live an ordinary life with me, okay?"

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, as if weighing the truth of Teng Yao's words, and then he smiled, and the night seemed to brighten up.

He said, "OK."

"As a human, what do you want to do most?"

"Whatever you want, I will do whatever you want."

"I want to travel around the world to see different scenery and experience different customs."

"I go with you."

"I also want to go on a jungle adventure and see animals and plants that are not in the book."

"Then we have to buy two more insurances, so that we can have financial security in case we are bitten by a poisonous snake."

"Don't you have a lot of assets, transfer them up as soon as possible, don't leave them to waste."

"Okay, I said I will support you, so I will support you, and I won't let you worry about money anymore."

"You still have to leave a little blessing for the two of us, to ensure that we can find each other with memories from life to life."

"That's natural."

Teng Yao also laughed, but his heart was sighing heavily.

People have life and happiness, ghosts have death and ghosts.Since the destruction of the old underworld, the order of the underworld has completely collapsed. There is only one life and death between ghosts and ghosts. No one has the heart to accumulate Yin blessings. It's like a treasure land of spiritual cultivation in the world at that time.You also stumbled into it by accident, and came up with the bad idea of ​​using Yin Fu to disrupt the world.

"If you find a way to disperse the yin blessings gathered in one place, he will no longer be able to inject yin blessings into the world. Once this crisis is eliminated, he will be able to exchange for the great merit of saving the world."

Teng Yao took out his notebook, on which he drew a map based on You's description.

"The blessed place is here. I'm a living person, so I won't go with you. You have to be more careful yourself, and beware of that kid doing bad things to harm you."

Teng Yao handed the notebook to Lu Yuan's hand, and took advantage of the situation to hold those cold hands tightly.

Lu Yuan nodded solemnly, and disappeared in the dark.

Teng Yao stood on an empty street corner, letting the cold wind after the rain fade the color of his lips little by little.

In the cold alley, ink-stained vortexes are opened on the mottled walls covered with traces of time.

Teng Yao rubbed his cold arm, sighed, turned and walked in.
