Pluto's Tower

Pluto lay on his side in the palace, dictating Yueying's report: "Pavilion Master, according to the spies' report, the woman named Qiqing was unconscious for a whole day before waking up.

But I can't find out anything about the battle between her and you. I think Bai Ziche and others are deliberately concealing it.

As for her origins, there is no clue at all. All we know is that she was brought back by Bai Ziyu's ferocious wolf.

Bai Ziche and the others have all returned to Moshi Pass, escorted along the way by Zhao Chi, deputy general of the Posha Army of Shengyuan State."

"Ahem...I got it..." Hades replied lazily, his face not looking very good.

"Master, your injury..." Yueying was a little worried.

"It's okay, just some internal injuries. You won't die. Little girl, you were ruthless enough." Hades stroked his head helplessly.

Yueying didn't know why her Pavilion Master had that silly smile on his face, it just looked silly no matter how he looked at it.

"If you have nothing to do, go out and take over the work. You've been busy with that guy's business all these days. You all are the same. Why are you running around all day instead of doing your work?

Don't you need to make money? Look at this Pluto Pavilion, the Pavilion Master, what a mess it has become!" Pluto felt upset when he thought about all the hard work he had done these days and not getting a single ounce of silver!

Yueying obediently looked up and looked around at this magnificent and extravagant hall.

I can't help but feel ashamed. If this place, which is more luxurious than the imperial palace, is still shabby, what do you want the rulers of the three kingdoms to do?

Moon Shadow's silent complaints made Hades even more upset, and he roared, "What are you looking at! It's free to support you guys, right? And that big vampire! He keeps sucking my blood. I'm not easy.

And... and that little girl, she killed so many people at once, and this Pavilion Master has to get a large pension again."

When Yueying realized that her Pavilion Master was about to suffer internal injuries again, she immediately stepped forward to remind him, "Pavilion Master, have you forgotten that you just robbed Jiu Niangzi's Qingsi Tower..."

So, Pavilion Master, you have another large amount of gold and silver deposited into the warehouse. Thinking of this, Pluto's phoenix eyes and eyebrows became unconsciously proud.

Oh, I'm truly wise and powerful. That old woman might be a little disgusting, but she's quite wealthy. Oh no! If that blood-sucking worm finds out, he might come and rob me again!

Hades suddenly warned seriously: "You two are not allowed to tell that guy about this, do you hear me?"

Sun Shadow remained motionless, while Moon Shadow muttered in dissatisfaction, "With that guy's ability, he'd know even without us telling him. Besides, he was the one who came up with this idea in the first place!"

Hades' expression froze, and he stubbornly said, "No matter what, if he asks, you can just say you didn't steal anything at all. That old woman is so poor! We didn't steal anything at all. That's right! It's settled."

Yueying only felt a flock of crows flying over her head. To be honest, she had suspected more than once that her own Pavilion Master had a problem with his brain.

"Master, the Ninth Lady has been rescued..." Riying said suddenly.

Pluto was still immersed in his own fantasy, and waved his hand nonchalantly: "Just go, that old woman can't cause any more trouble. Okay, all of you go."

When Riying and Yueying stepped out of the palace, they suddenly heard someone say, "Haha, little girl, next time we meet, I will not let you off!"

Yueying felt her foot slip and she stumbled. Riying reached out to support her lightly, then quickly withdrew her hand.

Yueying looked at Riying in bewilderment: "Pavilion Master, have you remembered that little girl named Qiqing?"

After giving Yueying a cold glance, Riying left without answering.

Yueying shuddered and blinked: "It's so cold..."

French Temple

Zen music lingered, the door half-open, black and white chess pieces interlaced, the person holding the chess pieces had bright eyes and a kind face. Sitting quietly and concentrating, he saw the strange piece standing horizontally, smiled faintly, and shook his head slightly.

A young monk cleaning nearby asked curiously, "Master, why are you playing chess alone? Is your chess playing good or bad?"

Shi An said: "This chess game is neither good nor bad."

The monk boy was puzzled: "Why is it good?"

Shi An: "The black one is me, the white one is also me"

The monk boy seemed to understand: "Oh, then why is it not good?"

Shi An: "Originally, you are the chess player, but in the end, you are just a piece. If you are deeply trapped in the game, you will be lost. If an unusual number appears, the game will be in chaos."

Monk boy: "An unusual number?"

Shi An held the black piece in his hand and with a light "pop", the black piece entered the box: "Yes, it is not an anomaly."

The monk boy was a little confused and asked in a childish voice, "Master, I don't understand. What should we do if an anomaly occurs?"

Shi An looked outside. The warm morning sun shone in, casting a halo on his face. The monk boy was facing the light and could not see his face clearly.

All I heard was that penetrating and compassionate voice saying, "Cause and effect cannot be changed; one's own actions will produce their own consequences."
