Chapter 288 Even the devil is fooling people!

The whole forest seemed silent for a moment.

As the demon began to run outside, the other demons were stunned at first, until Jian Yue stood up with the mirror in his hand. Every demon who approached him was illuminated by the mirror and saw his own appearance inside. They all screamed and ran away.

Ji Xingle was a little dumbfounded.

"No..." Ji Xingle murmured: "Why are they..."

Jian Yue held up the mirror and said, "I've been to two people's homes and found that they didn't have any mirrors. In fact, I was wondering from the beginning when I was at Martha's house why the mirrors were sealed in the attic. Even in the Duke's manor, I didn't see many mirrors. At first, I thought that people in this town didn't like to look in the mirror, but have you noticed that the fragrant honey sold in this town has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin? During the day, all the major stores are full of mirrors, so why are there no houses at night?"

Ji Xingle had never noticed this kind of thing before, and it was only after Jian Yue said this that he felt as if he had suddenly realized something.

Jian Yue stood in the woods, his clothes were a little messy, he said: "Let's go."

The carriage had been destroyed and the fog was still spreading. They could only walk to the church on foot. To be honest, the air was filled with the smell of blood. Ji Xingle felt that he would be scared to death if he were alone. He didn't expect Jian Yue to dare to walk.

Ji Xingle's face turned pale with fear: "Do you still dare to move forward?"

Jian Yue looked very calm, so calm that Ji Xingle thought he was not afraid at all. Jian Yue looked back at him and said, "If I don't go now, I will definitely have to go later. I've been scared already, and you want to scare me again? Do you think I have a good heart?"

Ji Xingle: “…”

That seems to make sense!

So Ji Xingle hurriedly caught up with Jian Yue.

Jian Yue walked towards the forest outside. The fog was really thick. Ji Xingle kept muttering beside him, asking why it was so dark and why they hadn't arrived at the church yet. In order to prevent the two of them from getting separated, Jian Yue tied a rope between them. As they walked, they finally arrived at the town. It was only around nine o'clock in the evening, but the whole town was deathly silent.

"It's too quiet." Jian Yue slowed down his pace: "Be careful."

He looked back.

Only to find that one end of the rope had disappeared.

At some point, the rope became loose and Ji Xingle disappeared. Jian Yue's hearing was very good. If he remembered correctly, Ji Xingle was still by his side just now. It was just that in the split second when he was looking around the entire town, Ji Xingle must have disappeared in an instant. If he had called for help, there was no way he would not have heard his voice.

Jian Yue lowered his eyes for a moment, then retracted the rope and continued walking forward.

The whole street was very quiet. Jian Yue remembered that Sari had said before that on dangerous nights like the Dangerous Moon Night, the residents of the local town would usually hide in their rooms.

He walked in the fog.

suddenly--

A huge figure appeared in the fog and rushed towards Jian Yue!

A strong smell of blood rushed over, and Jian Yue dodged it by suddenly stepping back. The whole street made a clear sound. It was another demon, but this demon was a little fat and looked a little familiar.

Jian Yue recognized him from his clothes and found that he was the owner of the nectar shop next door.

He had completely changed his appearance. His whole body was like a small mountain, and it seemed as if his body was covered with stones, making it very hard. After Jian Yue dodged a few times in a hurry, it was obvious that he was no match for him.

When the boss came forward again.

Jian Yue took out a mirror from his pocket. The mirror clearly reflected the boss's appearance. Jian Yue clearly heard the boss's sharp scream, and he turned around and ran away as if he had seen something horrible.

Gone.

The audience in the live broadcast room also breathed a sigh of relief:

"Really gone."

“This mirror looks really useful.”

"Maybe I can get to the church safely with the help of this mirror!"

“Why does it feel like it’s not that simple…”

Just when everyone, including Jian Yue himself, breathed a sigh of relief, he walked forward and heard a whistling sound behind him again. It was a demon monster attacking him from behind!

If Jian Yue didn't have very good hearing, he would have been hit by the weapon!

Jian Yue used a mirror to look at himself, and the demon turned around and ran away. Although he found a more useful way to deal with the demons, Jian Yue soon discovered that this was not a long-term solution. Moreover, if he walked forward, he could hold the mirror in front to prevent the demons from getting close, but his back was empty and he could not resist at all!

Realizing this, Jian Yue frowned slightly.

Even the audience in the live broadcast room noticed the difficulty. Demons continued to appear nearby, gathering in increasing numbers, and the comments in the live broadcast room became denser:

"Just say it's not that simple."

“Not even with a mirror!”

"He doesn't have any offensive cards, so he's doomed!"

"The host is going to get his lunch box!"

Just when everyone was watching countless demons about to pounce, suddenly, they found that the person standing in the middle sighed, and then... he began to take off his clothes!

Not only were the demons shocked, but even the audience in the live broadcast room were shocked!

What does it mean to take off clothes suddenly?

Before everyone could question Jian Yue's behavior, they saw Jian Yue taking off his outer coat, and what was revealed underneath were actually church clothes!

The clothes of the church were basically white shirts, and Jian Yue wore them inside. When the clothes of the church were revealed, the movements of the demons were indeed instantly frozen.

Jian Yue, who was standing in the middle of the road, flicked off the dust on his body. When he glanced at the demons on the road, the dim moonlight scattered somewhat desolately. His expression was calm, and he even looked at the people with a bit of judgment. He looked at the demon that pounced on him and whispered slowly: "Hurting people in the middle of the night is indeed an ominous thing, and it is hard to tolerate in this world."

When he spoke, he was like the bishop in the church who truly judged the world.

When the demons saw this look and tone, they all began to fear.

Next second.

Even if there are some demons with higher IQs who want to come over and try to smell the scent.

Jian Yue took out the booklet from his pocket and said, "Let me save you, let you accept the judgment of the Lord God, accept the baptism of the Lord God, and wash away your sins."

While speaking.

Jian Yue began to read the contents of the prayer in the booklet, and as he muttered the words, the demons showed painful expressions and fled after just a few words.

"Listen carefully." Jian Yue reminded the others: "Your awareness is much higher than that of some demons. This is the teaching of the Lord God. Do you understand? Those who don't listen will be punished by the Lord God."

As soon as these words fell, the remaining demons ran away!

Almost instantly, the entire street seemed to be cleared.

Jian Yue: “…”

The audience in the live broadcast room: “…”

No, this is all OK!!!

The audience in the entire live broadcast room were furious when they saw Jian Yue wearing church clothes, not only did he not reveal his true identity, but he actually scared people away:

"Fuck, this trick actually works?"

“So that booklet is really useful!”

"Hahaha, how can you even fool the devil, Butler Wang!"

"Have the demons ever bought anti-fraud information? Hahaha!"

Many viewers were impressed that Jian Yue was able to handle the situation so easily. Even at this moment, he could still face it so calmly and confidently!

But the next second.

On the quiet and deserted street, Jian Yue put away the manual with a noble and cold look. When there was no one around, Ji Xingle, who was not far away, finally ran out from the fog. He said, "What happened? I don't know why I got separated from you in the fog just now. When I was in danger, Qiyaya pulled me into the space, and I was able to get out now. Oh my God, you are so powerful. Did you drive them all away? Are you standing here now to enjoy the time of victory of the strong?"

"No." Jian Yue said, "I was so scared that my legs went weak and I couldn't walk."

Ji Xingle: “…”

That's very lifelike.

After Jian Yue stood there and recovered some strength and skills, he finally walked back towards the church. Perhaps the obstruction by the group of demons just now was actually a means for the church to protect their church. After the demons were scared away, it was much easier for them to find the church and enter the church. In the middle of the night, there were no guards at the church.

Because they wanted to go directly to the place with sculptures behind the church, Jian Yue went directly through a small path at the back. He had secretly discovered this path when he came here with Chris last time. He didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

Ji Xingle followed behind.

Jian Yue climbed over the wall, while Ji Xingle completely relied on Qiyaya to carry him around. Ji Xingle whispered, "Qyyaya, you don't have to carry me like this. I can do it by myself. You should save your energy."

Chiaya smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I've been recuperating very well these past two days! I don't know why I'm not very tired in this dungeon!"

Jian Yue was walking in front. After a few steps, he stopped and said, "We're here."

At the end of this path is the main hall at the back of the church, which has sculptures and is the core of the entire town. The last time Jian Yue came here was during the holidays. The whole town was magnificent and the church was even more prosperous. At that time, there were people coming and going everywhere. But now, the time around here seems to be frozen, and it looks cold and desolate.

Such silence actually made the surrounding environment more frightening and terrifying.

As Jian walked forward, he followed the path until he reached the main hall. The huge door sealed the entire church inside.

Ji Xingle said: "The door is locked and can't be opened."

Jian Yue chuckled.

Ji Xingle asked, "Do you have a way to open it?"

Jian Yue said: "No."

Ji Xingle: “…”

Jian Yue said: "Enter through the window."

Ji Xingle: "Okay."

The two men jumped in through the window very easily. Ji Xingle originally thought that it would be very difficult for him to enter through the window, but he did not expect that the place chosen by Jian Yue was very easy to jump. Both of them came in in no time.

The interior of the church was extremely cold and dark. There was not even a single light in there.

Jian Yue was well prepared. He bought a flashlight before coming. After entering, he pressed the flashlight button. The next second, the bright flashlight light illuminated the entire church.

It always takes some time for the eyes to adjust to the sudden brightness.

Ji Xingle blinked and found that Jian Yue was looking up at something. Ji Xingle followed his gaze and froze in place. If he hadn't been leaning against a pillar, his legs would have gone weak and he would have been unable to stand. His eyes widened and Ji Xingle murmured, "My goodness..."

What a tall sculpture.

The entire statue of the sculpture has changed. It is now a beast with a human body, fangs and sharp teeth. The beast has horns and feathers, and a pair of scarlet eyes staring at everyone below. It can be said that if this were in broad daylight, those who believe in the religion would be so scared that they would start to doubt their lives on the spot!

Ji Xingle's voice was trembling as he said, "This, this is what the church has been supporting. Aren't they specifically responsible for clearing out demons? Why are they still raising demons in a place like this?"

Jian Yue stood beside him, looking at the sculpture and said, "Have you noticed that this sculpture seems to be unable to move?"

If it were the previous demon, he would have pounced on me long ago.

Although the demon standing on the sculpture can stare at them with his eyes, he cannot attack them!

"It seems..." Ji Xingle observed for a while and said, "It seems to be true!"

After thinking about it for a while, Jian Yue came to a conclusion: "He seemed to only stare at me and not at you. Is it because of the clothes I'm wearing?"

As he spoke, Jian Yue took off his church clothes. Sure enough, when his clothes were thrown aside, the devil's gaze also moved away.

Ji Xingle said: "It doesn't like this dress?"

Jian Yue corrected: "It's more likely that he doesn't like the people in this church at all."

This possibility made Ji Xingle feel like his CPU was burning up. He said, "Ah, but haven't the people of the church been supporting this sculpture? They even specially built such a large temple. Look, there are so many places to pray here. They are so good to this demon, why does this demon still hate them?"

Jian Yue looked at the messy prayer chairs, smiled softly and said, "Maybe it really is because they built this place that it hates them?"

It’s a bit tongue-twisting and Ji Xingle hasn’t digested it yet.

Jian Yue stepped forward directly, his steps were decisive.

Seeing that he was actually walking towards the sculpture, Ji Xingle was frightened and asked quickly: "What are you going to do?!"

Jian Yue said: "I'm here now."

Ji Xingle: “…”

Do you think it is a tourist attraction?!

Jian Yue walked slowly towards the sculpture. His main mission this time was to investigate the truth behind the demonic disease. It was not only for the mission, but also for those wronged girls. In order for everyone to be able to stand in the sun again and live a normal life, he had to complete this mission, and the sculpture in front of him might give him the answer.

As he approached the sculpture, the demon's gaze followed Jian Yue.

As Jian Yue got closer, he walked under the sculpture, then bent down and looked down. Soon, with the help of the flashlight, Jian Yue could clearly see a line of words engraved underneath.

but--

He can't understand.

He didn't recognize the language of this town.

However, this did not stop Jian Yue from taking a piece of paper and pen and copying down the line of words. After all, if he didn't recognize it now, he could find a way to translate it when he returned.

Bright red blood dripped down, drop by drop.

Jian Yue took a step back without thinking, and then said: "Please don't disturb me, I'm busy!"

demon:"……"

So, after Ji Xingle looked at him in astonishment, Jian Yue copied the entire sentence and said to Ji Xingle, "Let's go."

Ji Xingle looked at the devil who was somewhat helpless against the two people. To be honest, he even felt a little sympathy for the devil!

After Jian Yue climbed out of the window, Ji Xingle whispered, "If you write it down, who are you going to ask to translate it for you?"

"We'll find someone to translate it tonight." Jian Yue said, "If you don't understand anything after the translation, you can go directly to the church library to look it up."

Ji Xingle said: "Who are you looking for? Is there anyone here who can help you?"

After Jian Yue put the note away, he walked through the corridor. All the paths here became empty, but this did not affect Jian Yue's movements and efficiency. After walking through several corridors, Jian Yue stopped in front of a door.

"Boom boom boom"

Jian Yue knocked on the door.

After a while, a female voice appeared inside: "Please come in."

It was Martha's sister's room. After a few days, the girl's condition seemed to have improved. Jian Yue said, "Thank you for waiting."

"Nothing." The younger sister said, "Sister Martha came to visit me today. She brought a message for you, saying that you might come to visit tonight, so I didn't eat the dinner distributed by the church. I was waiting for you, but I didn't expect you to come."

Jian Yue said: “Yes, maybe I need your help.”

During the day, Jian Yue thought that if he entered the church, he might encounter some difficulties, and then he would need the help of his sister, so he asked Martha to bring a message for him. Unexpectedly, it was really useful.

My sister said, “I’m willing to help.”

Jian Yue directly handed the note to her and said, "Look at what this line of words means?"

After taking a look, my sister's face changed drastically. She turned pale and bloodless almost instantly, and then she said with trembling lips: "Qiliya."

Zierlia

Jian Yue frowned and asked, "What does this mean?"

"Devil... Demon King." The younger sister said, "This is the name of the Demon King. The name of Zilia is written on this piece of paper."

Jian Yue asked: "Do you know where the Demon King came from?"

The sister replied, "I only know that it was the leader of the demons and was later sealed underground by the bishops. I don't know anything else."

Jian Yue caught the point, and he asked almost immediately: "Seal? Where was it sealed? In the church?"

The younger sister was frightened by Jian Yue's eager questioning, but after she recovered, she said, "I don't know. Ever since I can remember, the rumor in the town is that Qierlia was sealed by the bishop. As for where, I really don't know..."

The clue seemed to be broken.

The room was silent.

Just when Jian Yue was seriously thinking about how and where to find clues, his sister suddenly said, "Maybe, maybe if you really want to know, I know a book that records the story of Qierlia very clearly."

Jian Yue asked: "What book?"

"I really want to call it, Devil's Notes." The younger sister replied, "But this book is very rare. Not many people in the whole town have seen it. I heard that this book disappeared many years ago. What a pity."

When saying this, the younger sister tried to comfort Jian Yue.

Jian Yue: “…”

The audience in the live broadcast room laughed when they saw his expression:

"Hahahaha, you never expected that."

"The Devil's Notes is in his hands."

"How funny! It turns out that the most important thing has already been obtained."

Once Jian Yue really got the most crucial clue, he said, "Thank you, I won't bother you anymore. Take care of yourself, and things will be over soon."

As long as we get the Devil's Notes back, we will have clearer clues.

After returning the note to Jian Yue, the younger sister smiled and said, "You're welcome. I want to thank you for taking care of my sister. Our whole family is grateful to you!"

Jian Yue always felt that his sister might have misunderstood something, but it didn't matter, there would be plenty of time to explain later.

Come out of the room.

Ji Xingle asked, "Where is the Devil's Notes?"

"I borrowed it some time ago." Jian Yue said, "It's on me anyway, let's go back first."

Because there was no carriage, both of them had to walk a long way. In addition, their physical strength was almost exhausted after a night's work. It took them a long time to finally return to the castle when it was almost dawn.

As the sky brightened, the entire castle finally regained some vitality.

Jian Yue was called by the blond butler almost as soon as he came back. The blond butler looked at Jian Yue as if he was looking at some kind of enchanting concubine. He said, "His Highness wants to see you. Go see His Highness now."

Chris woke up so early.

Jian Yue nodded quickly. He went upstairs and came to the door of Chris's room. He pushed the door open and saw the man sitting beside the bed. They had been in a cold war for several days and Chris had not summoned him again. He did not come to see Chris and thought that the two of them would continue like this. He did not expect Chris to want to see him first.

The four eyes were silent.

The room was quiet for a moment.

Until Chris spoke first: "Come here."

Jian Yue walked over obediently. Chris's eyes fell on the quilt. The arrogant prince said, "I heard that you didn't come back all night. Even if you wanted to attract my attention, you shouldn't do such a dangerous thing. Okay, I can forgive you for not having breakfast with me. Next time you..."

He suddenly stopped talking halfway through.

As Jian Yue approached, Chris suddenly raised his head, his eyebrows narrowed sharply, and then asked: "Why do you smell like a girl? Did you go out to find someone?!"

Jian Yue: “……?!”
