C12 Avenging Grace and Enmity

"Very high Tao Soverieign, Heaven and Earth, five elements, yin and yang, and qi. Urgent as a law!"

As I shouted, two runes, Dark Fire and heavenly thunder, shot out from my hands and struck Captain Zhu's face. With a loud crash, the Dark Fire and lightning exploded, causing Captain Zhu to scream out in pain as he staggered a few steps back.

"What a good Daoist disciple. Just you wait. I won't forget the grudge we have today!" Captain Zhu's cold and vicious female voice came out of his mouth as his face turned extremely hideous. Immediately after, I saw a woman in red emerge from Captain Zhu's body and quickly flew out the door before disappearing in the blink of an eye.

I didn't have time to catch up, so I gave up.

Captain Zhu, who was in front of them, was helped up from the ground by a few police officers and cried out in pain. I looked at him, and my face darkened. When he was possessed by the red-clothed female ghost just now, in order to exorcise ghosts, I directly slapped the Dark Fire s and Heavenly Thunder Talisman seals onto his face. Although the red-clothed female ghost was driven away, she still caused Captain Zhu harm, causing him to be bruised and battered. He was in so much pain that he could not stop.

"Ouch, which bastard hit me?" Captain Zhu woke up and shouted angrily after standing up.

"It's him!" the officers said in unison, pointing at me without hesitation.

"What?" Captain Zhu's thick black eyebrows twitched, and he immediately rushed forward to grab my collar. He was a cop, and I didn't dare to fight back so I wouldn't fall on a cop, so I let him grab me by the collar.

"Hey, Uncle Police, don't get so worked up. I was trying to save you just now." I hastily explained.

"Save me?" Captain Zhu's bull-like eyes suddenly moved in a funny way. He suddenly slapped my shoulder and laughed, "You're not bad. Old Zhu, I'm just joking."

"I'll go." I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, boy, what's your name?" Captain Zhu immediately asked me.

"My name is Wu Qia."

"Oh, not bad. Good name. "Cough cough, Wu Qia, your magic skills were pretty good just now. Do you have any interest in going to our police station to protect the lives and property of our people?"

"No, Captain Zhu, serving the people is my dream since I was young. But now, I have other things to do, so I can't spare the time."

Captain Zhu failed to recruit me as a lackey and instead asked me to give him my phone number. I thought that if their police department encountered any danger in the future, they would definitely call me for help. As it was the perfect opportunity for me to protect Little Fox, I didn't hesitate and gave him my phone number.

My cousin whispered to me why she was asking for trouble, and I smiled helplessly, not knowing how to answer her.

At this time, I heard Bai Xiaoxiao's worried voice crying, "Lin Feng, how are you? "Wake up …"

He saw Lin Feng, whose face was swollen like a pig's head, on the side. Lin Feng seemed to be unable to bear the pain and fainted.

Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes were red as she looked at him anxiously.

I felt my heart astringent and unspeakably sad. Taking a deep breath, I walked over and reached out to pat Bai Xiaoxiao on the back to comfort her, but before I could reach her, she angrily waved her hand and said, "Don't touch me!"

She looked at me resentfully.

"Little Fox," I sighed bitterly in my heart. "Don't worry, he's fine. He just fainted."

"Wu Qia, if anything happens to Lin Feng, I won't let you off!" Bai Xiaoxiao shouted at me, her eyes wet and red.

She walked up to Bai Xiaoxiao with a frown and snorted coldly, "Miss Bai, if my cousin didn't save you just now, you would've been bullied by that monster. It's fine if you don't thank him, but now you're paying him back for his kindness, is that right?"

Her cousin's words were laced with a tone of admonition, which immediately infuriated Bai Xiaoxiao.

"Who asked him to save me!" Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes were wide open as she cried out, tears flowing from the corners of her eyes.

"Xiaoxiao, how can you speak?" Captain Zhu snapped.

"Am I wrong?" Bai Xiaoxiao cried out, "Even if I get killed by the monster, what does it have to do with him? "And who is he? A person who doesn't dare to reveal his true colors and is wearing a mask? Could it be that I'm begging him to save me?"

"Nonsense!" Captain Zhu stomped his feet in anger, but there was nothing he could do.

"Today, I finally got to see Lü Dongbin's ungrateful heart." said his cousin with a sneer.

"What did you say?" Bai Xiaoxiao glared at her cousin.

My cousin sneered. Just as she was about to continue retaliating, I hastily stopped her and said dejectedly, "Forget it, my cousin. Don't say anymore." Thinking about Xiaoxiao who just called me an ugly bastard, my heart is filled with bitterness. Little Fox, who was once willing to sacrifice her life to save me, is now so sad and blind for a good-for-nothing! My heart is very sad, but looking at Little Fox's moist red eyes, my heart softened again, and I began to feel sorry for her.

"No matter what you say, she can be so sad for her boyfriend. At the very least, it will prove that she is the same Little Fox who loved and cared deeply for him, regardless of anything else …" "Moreover, she is my wife. No matter what, I shouldn't be angry with her. I want to protect her until she remembers me …"

The two people from the police station supported Lin Feng out. Bai Xiaoxiao left right after her. I just stood there in a daze, looking at her leaving figure while trying to hold back my tears.

"Wu Qia, are you alright?" said my cousin worriedly, touching my hand.

I snapped out of my daze and hurriedly wiped my eyes with my hand. "I'm fine."

My cousin sighed and shook her head. She patted my shoulder in annoyance and said, "What's going on with you? Do you like that female officer? "

I didn't know how to explain this to my cousin. After a moment of silence, I whispered, "Cousin, we've known each other since we were young."

"Huh?" His cousin was shocked and asked in confusion, "Then why did she repay your kindness with hatred?"

I shook my head sadly. "She doesn't remember me."

My cousin stared at me, not knowing what to say.

A young police officer who was cleaning up the scene heard my conversation with my cousin and said, "Brother, your magic tricks were not bad, but do you know who Lin Feng is? He's a rich and handsome young man, a second-generation official. How are you going to compete with him for a girlfriend? "I think you should give up."

"Little Fox is my wife, that's enough." I thought to myself that I didn't want to talk much with this young police officer. I turned around and said to my cousin, "Cousin, let's go."

My cousin nodded and went to the side to pick up my luggage.

I rushed forward to grab the luggage and said, "Cousin, let me carry it myself." My cousin came to pick me up and protect me. I was already very touched and didn't want her to suffer any more.

However, my cousin misunderstood my meaning. She looked at me with surprise and confusion and said, "Cousin, please be honest. Is there anything shameful in your bag? I'm worried that my cousin will see it."

"No," I jumped in fright and hastily waved my hands as I bitterly smiled. "Cousin, how could it be? I only have some clothes in my bag, how can there be any shameful things."

"Tsk," my cousin rolled her eyes at me. "I was just casually asking you how nervous you are."

I smiled in embarrassment, my face burning with embarrassment. After a few words with my cousin, my mood improved a lot.

When we got out of the apartment building, my cousin hailed a taxi and we went to their bookstore. About ten minutes later, my cousin and I got out of the taxi and saw people coming and going in the block in front of us.

"Our bookstore is on the sixth floor," my cousin said, pointing to a building on the other side of the street called Hanlin Book City. He led me across the zebra crossing to the Hanlin Book Tower.

After we entered the Book City's building, I saw that the first floor was actually a large jewellery clothing store. It was decorated to the point where it was dazzling in gold and jade, making it oppressively rich and expensive. Why are they selling apparel and jewelry too? "

The cousin sighed and pointed upstairs, "There's even a cafeteria and internet cafe. In today's society, people use smartphones to read books, and the number of people reading books is becoming fewer and fewer. The book market is in a bad mood, and many bookstores have closed and closed, giving way to jewellery and clothing stores."

Before I came to the River City, when I learned the Tao technique from Grandfather, it was basically equivalent to me going into seclusion. I have very little understanding of the development of the outside world, and hearing my cousin's words, I immediately felt that my knowledge greatly increased. But he was also puzzled and asked: "Cousin, if the book market is in a bad mood, then why is uncle still running a bookstore?"

His cousin smiled and said, "You don't understand. Although the book market is in a bad mood, after many bookstores close and close, under certain circumstances, the remaining bookstores will take up more of the market. Besides, our bookstore is not only running a physical bookstore, it's also selling online. New books, second-hand books, best-selling textbooks, all kinds of reference materials are available.

I felt like I couldn't understand what my cousin was saying, but hearing her speak as if the bookstore was very profitable, I couldn't help but say to myself in excitement, "Cousin, I'll help you. You guys should give me a higher salary, right?"

"Hey," my cousin smacked me on the head. "You haven't even started work yet and you're talking about wages."

"I was just joking." I said, aggrieved.

My cousin rolled her eyes at me and sighed. "I can't make the decision on how much salary I want to give you. Just wait and see dad."

A moment later we were on the sixth floor. My cousin led me to the largest bookstore on the sixth floor, the one called "Jin Ruyu". "Cousin, what do you think about the name of our bookstore?"

"Why is he called Jin Ruyu?" I asked in confusion.

Cousin smiled proudly and said, "Have you never heard of a saying called 'The book has its own golden room, the book has its own beautiful jade'? And Jin Ruyu is the name that I personally gave my inspiration from these two sentences.

"Cousin sure is knowledgeable, talented, and good-looking. You truly live up to your name." I said quickly.

My cousin looked at me with a new light in her eyes and said, "Cousin, from the looks of it, you seem to be very honest. So you actually know how to speak."
