Chapter 22

Mrs. Xiusi is dead, or rather, she's gone.

But Karun, who escaped from danger, didn't feel any relief.

A man kneeling in front of him, and a woman, if she could be called a woman;

Anyway, these two people brought him great pressure.

Karun knew there must be a misunderstanding.

But he knew even more that he couldn't explain it.

Let's see how they deal with Mrs. Xiusi... Karun believed that if they wanted to, solving him would be even simpler.

At this moment, Karun had to thank his previous profession and the various strange things he had encountered after waking up in this life. In short, his mental toughness was good as long as it didn't involve life and death.

What is a life and death moment? Similar to when Mrs. Xiusi really raised the knife earlier, he was really scared to death. It was better than not crying until you see the coffin. Before the coffin was covered, he could still force a smile.

But,

It's very embarrassing,

These two people are just kneeling in front of him, and no one is speaking;

And Karun,

Doesn't know what to say,

Because his chance to speak is "slim", once he says something wrong, he will have to shut up forever.

Obeying your will, great you;

Karun began to recall what the man in the red suit had said to him earlier.

Did they mistake me?

No, it shouldn't be.

Neither the previous "Karun" nor the present self are qualified to make these two kneel.

They must have mistaken their own strength.

Simplify complex problems;

They regarded themselves as great beings, although Karun didn't know why, but now he could only continue to pretend to be "great".

But,

How to do it specifically?

Karun really wants to go home now, and misses Dis's study;

Oh, damn it, Dis is not at home today!

Alfred and Lady Molly continued to maintain their kneeling posture.

For a long time,

They finally heard the voice of the great being in front of them:

"Tired..."

Alfred bowed his head even lower, and Lady Molly did the same.

Karun stood up from the bed, his movements were slow because his body was still weak.

Alfred kneeled sideways and made way for the great being to move forward;

Karun took one step at a time. In fact, he now had an impulse in his heart, such as running down the stairs and out of the courtyard to the red "Kaimen" car, and finally stepping on the accelerator to "escape".

But,

Looking at the neatly broken glass under the window, and thinking about the way the man in the red suit came in earlier, Karun felt that even if he had two more legs, he probably couldn't run past him.

But since he had already gotten out of bed, he couldn't turn back and sit on the bed again, right?

In the end,

Karun came to Mrs. Xiusi's pile of clothes,

Bent down,

Picked up these clothes, well, they were also relics.

In fact, Karun had a good impression of Mrs. Xiusi. He believed that most of the time, Mrs. Xiusi was still Mrs. Xiusi, except when she wanted to create art.However, he didn't feel too sad. Holding the clothes, Karun looked through the window at the moon in the sky.

"The moonlight is beautiful."

Alfred and Lady Molly were still kneeling obediently.

Karun tried to steady his breathing and continued to walk slowly towards the window. The friction between his shoes and the glass made a slightly harsh sound. Karun raised his head and pretended to be immersed in the moonlight tonight.

There was a slight noise behind him. Alfred and Lady Molly completely changed direction, kneeling towards the window instead of the bed.

"No, why aren't you talking? How do I know what to act if you just kneel there without saying anything?"

As he held Mrs. Xius's clothes, he touched a small box, a cigarette case.

At this critical moment, a thought suddenly popped into Karun's mind, a thought that made him almost want to laugh and slap himself:

"If I'm going to be swallowed up for a blooper in the next moment, why not have another cigarette before being swallowed up?"

No, what am I thinking?!

Although he was shouting at himself in his mind, "muscle memory" still made Karun take out the cigarette case. It was a "honey" cigarette, a lady's slim cigarette.

The cigarette case was turned over in his palm.

Tap.

Tap again.

Then, a half-length cigarette fell out.

Karun took out the cigarette, turned the filter down, tapped it on the back of his hand, and then bit it on his lips.

Then he picked up the lighter with a purple rose on it, turned his face forty-five degrees downwards, and snapped it.

He flicked his wrist, took a puff, moved the cigarette away, and blew out smoke rings.

This was a set of standard procedures for old smokers, or perhaps every old smoker had their own set of habitual actions, with slight differences in posture but almost the same charm.

When doing this action, it seemed that a BGM was playing all around, no matter who you were or where you were, whether you were on a construction site or at a smoking area in a train station, or like himself now, being "watched" by two "ghosts".

As long as you did this set of actions, at least at this moment, you were transcendent, and you were staring at the world with a deep gaze.

The faint smell of smoke spread out.

Alfred continued to kneel, and Lady Molly also knelt.

"Heh..."

Alfred's body trembled slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to raise his head, but restrained himself.

Karun pursed his slightly bitter lips, and then poured out another cigarette. With strong restraint, he suppressed his trembling hand and said to Alfred:

"Do you want one?"

He's asking me?

After hesitating for a moment, Alfred finally summoned up the courage to raise his head. He saw the great existence standing by the window, holding out a cigarette towards him, and the moonlight shone on him like a layer of gold, sacred and inviolable.

"Hmm?"

"I..."

Alfred slowly stood up, walked carefully to Karun's side, reached out, took the cigarette, and bit it in his mouth.

In the next moment,

"Snap!"

Karun lit the lighter.

Alfred's body trembled, and the great existence, the divine envoy, was actually going to... light my cigarette?Smoke and alcohol, both carrying a serious cultural baggage, reflected in the respect for smoking and drinking;

When those in higher positions do these things, they often give great inspiration to those below them.

Alfred leaned over, lit up, and took a breath with a nervous and excited heart. He then moved away, not letting the smoke he exhaled "clash" with the great being.

Hmm, good, he took a drag.

Next, Karun took out another one and looked at Lady Molly kneeling there.

"Want one too?"

What the hell am I doing!!!

Karun cursed himself in his heart.

Lady Molly stood up, and then walked over somewhat dazedly. Her red high heels tapped a pleasant rhythm on the floor as she approached Karun.

She had no hands,

But fortunately,

She had a face.

Karun held out the end with the filter to Lady Molly's mouth and she leaned forward slightly, opening her mouth and taking a drag.

Karun then picked up the lighter and lit it for her.

Then,

Lady Molly started smoking.

Can you imagine what Lady Molly looks like when she smokes? This is an image that no sane artist can construct!

Karun really saw it.

Although Karun was extremely afraid and horrified inside, the unknown meaning brought by this image directly touched his funny bone, making him want to laugh.

Karun held back, held back, held back,

In order not to ruin his image,

He turned around,

Facing the window.

At the same time,

Alfred and Lady Molly followed suit, looking out the window together.

Three people,

With a cigarette in their mouths,

Looking at the moon.

My god,

What a deformed picture!

Karun felt his cheeks sour,

He subconsciously wanted to distract himself by smoking,

So he took a drag, but the smile couldn't be held back, bursting out like a floodgate.

"Hahaha...cough...hahaha..."

Choking, intense coughing, but the smile couldn't be stopped. This action and process couldn't end. Karun continued to laugh while coughing.

Laughing until tears streamed down his face,

Laughing until he felt like his brain was broken,

Laughing until he felt like he messed up and was finished.

I'm finished!

Karun continued to laugh while regretfully slapping the windowsill with his palm.

No, I can't laugh anymore, I have to stop!

Alfred was stunned by the strange and unrestrained scene before him, and Lady Molly was the same.

The great being in front of them,

Laughed wildly, laughed unrestrainedly, laughed purely;

Then,

Alfred laughed too, starting off quietly, then gradually increasing the volume to match the great being in front of him.

Beside him, Lady Molly saw the great being laughing, then Alfred laughed, and she also laughed along with them.

Just as Karun was about to stop laughing, he heard the two laughter behind him and broke down again.

What the hell are you guys laughing at!

"Hahahaha!!!"

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!""Stop it, don't make me laugh!"

"Hahaha!"

Karun turned around and saw Lady Molly dropping her cigarette from her mouth because she had no hands to hold it.

"Damn it!"

"Hahaha!!!" Karun laughed until tears streamed down his face.

"Hahaha!!!" Alfred couldn't stop laughing either.

To ease the awkwardness, Lady Molly laughed louder.

Laughter is contagious. Even if there is no apparent reason to laugh, when someone around you suddenly bursts into laughter, you can't help but be drawn into it.

Karun didn't know how long he had been laughing, but he laughed until he was almost out of breath and almost suffocating.

"I haven't laughed in a long time. I almost forgot what it feels like," Lady Molly said.

Finally, she spoke. Karun immediately perked up and used the universal language he had used to comfort patients in his past life.

"Sometimes, learning to let go of your attachments is the only way to pick up what you truly want."

Lady Molly's body, or rather her plump legs, trembled at his words. She then knelt down and thanked him for his advice.

Suddenly, Alfred spoke up. "The judge of the Order of the Gods has arrived."

The Order of the Gods? A judge?

Karun looked out the window and saw a familiar figure: his grandfather, Dis. Next to him was a small figure that he couldn't see clearly in the dark, but its eyes were like amber. It was Puerh.

Karun instinctively wanted to shout, "Grandpa, save me!" But he realized that he was too far away from his grandfather and too close to Lady Molly and Alfred.

However, his grandfather's presence gave him a great sense of security. He stood there, looking at Dis outside the gate and said, "I live in his house."

Alfred's eyes lit up and he asked, "Is this judge of the Order of the Gods your follower?"

Every great figure has followers who will protect them during their initial struggles. They are the ones who will help them overcome their difficulties.

Followers can be powerful demons or powerful humans. No wonder this guy, who was so powerful, had been staying in Roja City as a judge. It turned out that he had such a great mission!

"He is my grandfather in terms of bloodline," Karun replied. He swore that this was the truth and he didn't add any water to it.

In fact, facing this guy with red eyes, Karun didn't dare to lie because he had a feeling that this guy was very sensitive. If you lied to him in front of him, he would be able to sense it.

So, he was a deity who had descended. He used a human body to conceive, be born, grow up, and carry out his mission of founding a religion!"It all makes sense now,"

Everything makes sense now!

This is a true god who has descended to the mortal world, a true god!

That's why he has a language that belongs only to him, because his existence and his years cannot be measured by any civilization!

That's why he has a sacred song that belongs only to him, because he is a god, and his song is his sacred song. He doesn't need to start from scratch, he himself is one!

The god has already descended, and he is ready for everything!

Alfred kneels down again and says with fear and trembling:

"I beg your pardon. My impudence has disturbed your path from greatness to light."

"I forgive your sins."

"Thank you for your kindness."

But Alfred doesn't stand up. Instead, he grits his teeth and says directly:

"I hope to follow in your footsteps and be your most loyal and glorious servant for your eagle, for your mule."

Lady Molly beside him also says directly:

"I will be the witness for your great path, using my legs."

Karun blinks, feeling a little at a loss at this scene. He can only turn to his grandfather standing below and show a helpless smile.

...

At the door of 128 Mingke Street, Dis and Puerh look up at the window on the second floor.

Puerh says:

"Dis, do you regret it now? The absolutely forbidden ritual has summoned a truly terrifying demon. Before, your eyes were deceived by his appearance, and your heart was covered by so-called family ties. Look, he has already subdued these two demons. And look, with wings spread, he is showing you a provocative smile."
