Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five

...

Zhou Fengliu washed up briefly and noticed what appeared to be traces of alcohol on his chest, leaving him speechless.

What exactly happened last night?

He was brushing his teeth while thinking about the problem. He rubbed his lower back, which seemed to be a bit strained from the exercise.

No, I'll go back and ask technician number 99, Jingjing, to give me a massage.

That's what he was thinking.

After a while, he changed his clothes and came out of the hotel. It is worth mentioning that he also took the two hundred yuan deposit that Xia He had left at the hotel.

The sun was shining brightly. He looked at the map and realized that it was still quite a distance from the front of Longhu Mountain, so he decided to have breakfast nearby before heading up the mountain.

"Damn it...you want another two hundred and sixty yuan?"

As soon as Zhou Fengliu arrived at the Qianshan Scenic Area, he was stopped by the ticket seller.

"You have to buy a ticket to get in."

“I bought it before, I was also forced to come down the mountain.”

Upon hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, the ticket seller glanced at him and then said, "You ate yesterday, why are you eating again today?"

"Row."

Zhou Fengliu thought it made sense and bought a ticket before going up the mountain.

...

"Brother Liu!"

Not long after he arrived at the mountain, Zhou Fengliu saw Zhang Chulan, Feng Baobao, and Xu Si, all dressed in the uniform of Na Du Tong, waiting for him.

"Fourth Brother..." Zhou Fengliu called out.

"Hmm...are you alright?" Xu Si glanced at Zhou Fengliu. "You didn't get your kidneys pinched by Xia He, did you?"

"I don't think so," Zhou Fengliu said.

"Alright, go in quickly. The old Celestial Master said he wanted to see you last night. You're now a great benefactor of the entire Celestial Master's Mansion," Xu Si said, taking a puff of his cigarette.

"Old Celestial Master... wants to see me?"

Zhou Fengliu raised an eyebrow and then followed the group into the Celestial Master's Mansion. Along the way, he noticed that many of the Celestial Master's Mansion members looked at him differently, and some were even more grateful.

This made him feel that his decision to save Tian Jinzhong last night was worthwhile.

Before long, Zhou Fengliu arrived at the place where the old Celestial Master was. Before he could even enter, he saw Zhang Lingyu, dressed in white, kneeling on the steps outside the door.

"Master Ayu... what kind of look is this?" Zhou Fengliu asked as he leaned closer to take a look.

"Zhou Fengliu..."

Seeing Zhou Fengliu return safely, Zhang Lingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, the heavy weight in her heart finally lifted.

"I'm glad you're safe..."

After a night of self-reproach, Zhang Lingyu felt as if she had been parched and had finally received rain when she saw Zhou Fengliu; her tightly furrowed brows relaxed somewhat.

He spent the whole night looking for Zhou Fengliu, but searching for someone in such a large area as Longhushan Scenic Area is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The old master later called him back, but unable to find the person, he chose to kneel outside his master's room and reflect on his absurd decision to let the Quanxing demon escape the previous night.

What's with that expression?

"So what are you doing kneeling there?" Zhou Fengliu stroked his chin, somewhat confused about Zhang Lingyu's approach.

"What happened last night was my fault, Zhang Lingyu. I shouldn't have listened to the sorcerer's words and let him take you away..." Zhang Lingyu apologized sincerely.

"You little brat..."

When Zhou Fengliu heard Zhang Lingyu's apology, he was first taken aback, and then realized that Xia He and Zhang Lingyu had argued about this matter in his memory.

He was wondering while washing up that Zhang Lingyu had clearly bound him with golden light, so how did Xia He end up taking him away?

You should know that with Zhang Lingyu's strength as a direct disciple of the Celestial Master, even if he couldn't capture Xia He, he could definitely keep Zhou Fengliu at bay.

Now he understood; it turned out that Zhang Lingyu had something on her mind.

"Put the apology aside for now. By the way, kid, were you planning to get a little revenge on me last night?" Zhou Fengliu squatted down and asked Zhang Lingyu.

"I took you to Da Bao Jian after you were poisoned before. Now that I'm in your hands, you should have Xia He take me away..."

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, Zhang Lingyu's ears instantly turned red, and the shame in his heart made him want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

...

P.S.: Just asking for everything. Please take care of yourselves, my godfathers. I've unfortunately caught a cold, and my brain is all mush right now, feeling both hot and cold.

In addition, I saw many godfathers saying things like "see you in the martial arts world" and there was nothing I could do to stop them.

My experience with many books has taught me that writing based on readers' opinions will inevitably lead to failure, since some readers may like the plot while others may not.

I once heard a great author say that an author is like a bus driver, and the work is the bus. As the driver, all I can do is try my best to get the bus to its destination.

As for when passengers get on and off the bus, that is their freedom.

Anyway... I'm not some great author, my abilities are limited, I can only do my best to handle the plot, complete the main character's character design, and present this book to everyone.

Finally, thank you all for your support... Your support is my biggest motivation to keep updating. I'm going to sleep now. I hope my cold will be better tomorrow; it's been so awful...

Chapter 110 Ah Yu Zhenren, who had just reconciled with herself, tied it back on herself again!

"I..."

"I, Zhang Lingyu..."

Zhang Lingyu stammered for a long time without being able to say a word.

He didn't know what had gotten into him last night. He had always lived an honest and upright life, so how could he have been so bewitched last night that he had the idea of ​​settling things with Zhou Fengliu after just one affair? This was definitely not the mindset of a Taoist.

"Oh, what's the big deal about saying that?"

Seeing Zhang Lingyu's state, Zhou Fengliu immediately felt that this kid was living too awkwardly.

It was so awkward that even he couldn't bear to watch it.

"Just say it straight: I, Zhang Lingyu, just want to get revenge on you. Who told you to take my great sword back then? Now it's in my hands. I'll let you experience what I felt back then. You tricked me once, and I'll trick you back. We'll be even."

Zhou Fengliu, speaking in Zhang Lingyu's voice, expressed the thoughts that had flashed through Zhang Lingyu's mind at that moment, which made Zhang Lingyu even more silent.

"It's not that hard. Since you've already chosen to trick me into paying, why can't you just say it outright? What? Are you afraid I'll punch you?"

Zhang Chulan listened for a long time and, to be honest, felt that Zhou Fengliu and Zhang Lingyu's identities seemed to be reversed.

Zhou Fengliu, who was originally the one being tricked, now sounded like the one who tricked him, while Zhang Lingyu, who tricked him, now sounded like the one being tricked.

Strange...

That's so weird.

"I might actually hit you... that's quite possible."

Zhou Fengliu didn't bother to hide anything and continued bluntly, "But this is the Celestial Master's Mansion... Can I slap you in front of the Old Celestial Master?"

"?"

Listening to Zhou Fengliu's words, Zhang Chulan stroked his chin and briefly recalled what he had heard.

It seems that during the semi-finals, Zhou Fengliu drew Zhang Lingyu right in front of the Old Master.

"I..." Zhang Lingyu was somewhat at a loss for words after Zhou Fengliu's string of words.

"What a playboy... Come in, let him kneel outside and reflect on his actions."

Before Zhang Lingyu could say anything more, the old celestial master's voice came from inside the room. Zhou Fengliu, hearing the commotion, ignored Zhang Lingyu's stubbornness and went straight into the room.

As far as the eye could see, besides the old Celestial Master, there were also two seniors, Lu Jin and Tian Jinzhong, in the room. When Zhou Fengliu entered, all three of them turned their gazes toward him in unison.

"Good morning, Senior Lu, Old Celestial Master, Elder Tian," Zhou Fengliu greeted.

"Hmm..." The old master nodded with a smile, then said, "Seeing that you're alright, this old man is relieved..."

"I heard everything that happened last night from my unfilial disciple. I apologize to you on his behalf..."

Hearing the old master's words, Zhou Fengliu was silent for a second before saying, "Old master, you're too kind. It's really nothing. If I were him, I would definitely have to trick him back... Besides, I don't have such a heavy burden as him."

"You're quite magnanimous..."

Hearing the old master's assessment, Zhou Fengliu smiled and said, "I don't have any other skills, but I'm good at taking things easy..."

"Alright, kid...we three old guys owe you a huge favor." Lu Jin said from the side.

"If you have any questions about the Tongtian Talisman in the future, feel free to ask me."

"Is it guaranteed that you'll learn it all?" Zhou Fengliu asked.

"That depends on your comprehension."

...

Zhou Fengliu chatted with the three for a while. In addition to expressing gratitude on behalf of the entire Celestial Master's Mansion, the Old Celestial Master also asked him how he saw through Gong Qing's disguise.

Faced with this question, Zhou Fengliu didn't offer much explanation, simply brushing it off with the phrase "a blind cat stumbled upon a dead mouse."

The old master did not press the matter further.

Before Zhou Fengliu left, the Old Celestial Master made him a promise—a promise that, within the rules, the Old Celestial Master would come down the mountain to help him.

It's said that favors are hard to repay.

This man, who had absolutely no connection to the Celestial Master's Mansion, saved the mansion's second-in-command, and the old Celestial Master had no choice but to repay his favor with this promise.

As for what kind of techniques to impart, the old Celestial Master had not considered it, after all, he was not a member of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

The promise to receive assistance from a top-tier master in the contemporary world of supernatural beings is quite substantial.

"Alright, Old Master... you really know how to play games." Lu Jin found the Old Master's promise intriguing and said to Zhou Fengliu:

"I'll also make you a promise: within the rules, I'll help you with your promise."

Upon hearing Lu Jin's words, Zhou Fengliu raised an eyebrow slightly, clearly not expecting Lu Jin to follow suit.

"Hey, Lao Lu...you're being a bit shameless."
