Bai Ju sat in the car he had seen before and was very satisfied with the soft cushions under him; his tense nerves also relaxed slightly.
Human beings were very strange nowadays.
He just acted according to some of the human rules explained by the little macaque. Crossing the road and shaking hands were all very common things, but why was there always a lingering gaze locked on him? Especially after he shook hands with Xiao Yu, he could feel that the eyes that had been observing him were getting hotter, and there were obvious mental fluctuations in the air.
Bai Ju was a bit stressed.
He didn’t sense any malice, but this kind of mental fluctuation made it difficult for him to adapt.
Human beings were not like this in the past… They would often exude spiritual fluctuations of awe and piety in front of him, but were still reserved, tactful and humble, or hopeful, eager or even greedy, but they were not as straightforward and enthusiastic as they were now. It was like a show of love, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Bai Ju rested his chin on his front paws, feeling the slight vibration of the car under his body. He lowered his eyelashes slightly, and a trace of red flashed in his dark pupils.
Before falling asleep, he was a somewhat famous demon king.
As a demon king, he was not only able to fight, but he also had a skill that most demons did not have, which was to listen to the inner thoughts.
This ability was not something he possessed at the beginning, but gradually emerged after he began to protect the villagers and listen to their prayers. It seemed that he was tacitly allowed by Heaven to become a little wild god. In the end, the only thing missing from the low-key Bai Dao becoming a god was a ceremony to receive blessings.
The ability to listen to people’s inner thoughts was originally created for listening to prayers. Now that there were no more followers, it seemed that it was not suitable for spying on the inner thoughts of ordinary people.
Bai Ju was a little troubled.
On the one hand, he wanted to know what modern people were thinking. On the other hand, he considered himself a righteous demon. Listening to inner thoughts without authorization was like spying on a little girl taking a bath, which was inconsistent with etiquette.
Otherwise, just set some rules for himself.
It was okay to listen to inner thoughts, but you could only listen to the inner thoughts of close friends; and you could not listen more than once a day.
Bai Ju did some mental construction and finally felt a little more comfortable.
Raising his head and looking at the rapidly receding scenery outside the car window, Bai Ju gradually closed his eyes and dozed off.
The scene outside came into his mind little by little, and Bai Ju sniffed slightly, feeling a little lost.
Now that the world was in ruins, it was no wonder that there weren’t many big demons. A demon king like him who used to be just a small mountain god, now, there were not more than two or three who could compare with him in the entire country of China.
In this way, Bai Ju became a big brother inexplicably. Bai Ju was a little weak, a little lonely, and a little worried about facing a powerful enemy.
It was difficult to be a good king. The more younger ones you have, the harder it was to manage them. You had to fight, establish authority, and help take care of the younger ones. When Bai Ju imagined his fiery life in the future, his eyesight went dark.
He hoped the director of the Demon Management Bureau could cooperate well with him and not be like those county government officials in the past, talking to him all day long in official accents that he didn’t understand.
The black, inconspicuous car plunged into the traffic, shuttled through the streets and alleys of the city, and drove to the Luoshan Ancient Town on the outskirts of the city, before finally slowly stopping at the edge of an open bluestone field.
Bai Ju lay calmly on the car seat. Seeing Yu Le open the car door for him, he raised his eyelids, nodded slightly, and jumped out of the car lightly.
The paws stepped on the damp and cool bluestone ground, and the air hundreds of times fresher than the city poured into his nose, making Bai Ju not able to help but raise his head and take a deep breath.
This ancient town was a modern preserved building, with a barrier set up at the end of a hidden “dead end” in the middle. The car passed through the barrier and reached the mansion where the Demon Management Bureau was located.
After all, there were many demons living in the mansion, and there were also many spiritual objects hidden in it. Although the whole environment was not as good as the secret realm where Bai Ju slept, it was still a great place for cultivation.
While Yu Le introduced the various facilities in the mansion to Bai Ju, he led him through the vestibule, past the Jiuqu Bridge that ran along the water on Yunze Lake, and towards the villa area on the hill.
The hillside where the villa area was located was not high, and Bai Ju and Yu Le’s walking speed was not slow. Yu Le didn’t say much, and they arrived at the door of Director Xiao’s villa.
Bai Ju raised his head and looked at the brass sign at the door. There was a line of words engraved on it in small seals:
Hall No. 1, Hall Owner. Xiao Yao
Yu Le took two steps back and said: “…I don’t have permission to enter the director’s villa, the pet tag on your body is the key to unlocking the door, and only you have the authority to use it. Director Xiao will be back by about eight o’clock in the evening. You can go inside and rest first. If you need anything, you can tell me now, or you can ask Fu Lu, the housekeeper demon in the mansion, and we will send you what you need.”
Bai Ju sniffed the breath coming from the door, which was gentle and refreshing, and unexpectedly made him feel comfortable.
“No, you can go back. I will just go in and wait.” Bai Ju turned around and said, seeing Yu Le turning around and walking away, he straightened up with his legs and took the pet tag hanging around his neck. Sticking it on the door handle, the apartment door in front of him opened with a beep.
Somewhat novel.
The world today was so convenient.
Bai Ju slowly walked into the house, stood at the entrance, looked at the furnishings of the house, and stood there reservedly without moving.
After all, this was someone else’s house. Although he was invited to live here, he was still a foreigner. It was best not to tamper with the owner’s things without permission.
Bai Ju stood for a while longer, then he turned around, and lay face down in the entrance hall.
Slowly closing his eyes and taking a nap, Bai Ju decided to lie here and wait for Director Xiao Yao to come home.
….
After Xiao Yao completed the relevant procedures for the demon king to come down the mountain and brought Bai Ju’s identity certificate and many other documents, it was already past seven o’clock in the evening when he came back from the capital after a long journey.
By the way, he went to the front hall to check the recent essential records. Xiao Yao returned to the door of his villa with a few documents, stretched out his hand to open the familiar door, and paused slightly as he entered the house.
At eight o’clock in the evening, in the entrance hall, under the warm yellow sensor light, a majestic large white dog lay there, raising its dark eyes and looking at him intently.
Xiao Yao: …
Xiao Yao slowly retracted his hand on the doorknob, and spoke two beats slower: “…Bai Wang, I’m honored to meet you. I, Xiao Yao, will be your temporary guardian.”
Bai Ju shook his hair, stood up, stepped forward and smelled Xiao Yao’s waist, taking note of his scent. Then a low voice sounded in Xiao Yao’s mind without any warning: “I know.”
Guardians were needed to supervise and protect humanity from this king.
Bai Ju nodded secretly and affirmatively.
