Taking a Concubine for the Demon Lord

After he finished speaking, Ye Jisheng glanced at him.

Jian Zhen himself was very excited. People always said he was stupid, but he did not let him down at the critical moment. Of course, he could think of it because he was a human himself. He understood his own nation and some things about worshipping gods in history. Otherwise, he would not have been able to guess it so easily.

Ye Jisheng said: "Oh, what did you think of?"

Jian Zhen decided to keep it in reserve: "I'm not sure about this yet, I'll decide after I give it a try."

Ye Jisheng really didn't ask. He never cared much about his own affairs, as if this matter didn't concern his life or death.

Jane Zhen yawned and said, "Let's go to bed first."

Ye Jisheng said "hmm" lightly.

Jian Zhen said: "You still can't fall asleep recently?"

He remembered that Ye Jisheng seemed to have said a long time ago that gods do not need to sleep.

really.

Ye Jisheng said: "I don't need sleep."

Jian Zhen sat beside the bed, touched her belly after hearing this, and reasonably suspected: "If our child is also a divine body in the future, will it be unable to sleep?"

Ye Jisheng answered without hesitation: "He is different from me."

Jian Zhen said, "Didn't you say that gods don't need to sleep?"

Ye Jisheng sat lazily and said in a nonchalant tone: "What if he wants to sleep?"

Jian Zhen: “…”

After all this time, it turns out that it’s not that you can’t sleep, it’s that you don’t want to sleep!

Xiaocao took a long time to digest this news.

Jian Zhen held it in for a long time, and finally said, "Why don't you want to sleep?"

Ye Jisheng said calmly: "Is there any fun in sleeping?"

Jian Zhen thought about it, and said with some emotion: "But you often sleep with me."

Ye Jisheng nodded: "Well, it's more interesting to sleep with you."

Jian Zhen: “…”

I don’t want to be moved for the time being.

While the two were chatting, he felt a little sleepy again and yawned lightly.

Ye Jisheng came over, sat down beside the bed and said, "Go to sleep."

Jian Zhen discovered that although this god didn't like sleeping at all, under his request, Ye Jisheng had become accustomed to sleeping. When lying down, Ye Jisheng would hold him in his arms and do nothing, as if he was holding a pillow. Could it be that he regarded himself as a little figurine?

never mind.

It's nice to have a heater next to it.

Jian Zhen fell asleep while thinking in a daze.

When I woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky.

After Jian Zhen washed up, he found that no one had lived in this mansion for a long time. He and Ye Jisheng had just arrived in the town and were not very familiar with everything, so they planned to go out for a walk on the street to familiarize themselves with the environment.

Yesterday I only knew that there was some water shortage in the town.

Now I personally walked the streets again, under the blazing sun, and realized how dry this town is.

In the center of the town, an old man was delivering water from far away to the people in the town. A mother was given a small bucket. Her lips were already chapped. When she returned to the yard, two or three children surrounded her, calling out excitedly, "Mom, Mom..."

The mother stroked her son's head, which was just reaching his knees, and said with a smile, "Mom has brought back some water. Are you thirsty?"

The children all looked very thirsty, but the youngest girl still held the bowl of water and said, "Mom, you drink first."

Mother said, "I'll drink it later. There's still a lot in this bucket. You guys drink first."

The younger children then cheered and ate the water in the bowl.

The mother looked at the children tenderly after they drank the water and then said, "Okay, let's go to the backyard and take our sheep out to let them roam free. The mayor said that he will open an altar to pray for rain soon, and we will send our sheep there too. Once there is water, everything will be fine."

Several children quickly agreed and left.

Jian Zhen watched the mother carefully put the water in the bucket back into the house. When she came out again, the sun was scorching overhead and she was shaky and about to faint.

"careful!"

The person who almost fainted felt that he was dragged by a gust of wind. When he woke up a little, he saw a young man in blue clothes walking into the yard.

The dewdrops fell on the woman's lips.

Jian Zhen poured out the water from her Jade Dew kettle, then half-bent over and asked, "Madam, are you okay?"

The woman drank the water in disbelief. She looked up at him and said, "Who... who are you?"

Jian Zhen looked at herself and Ye Jisheng who was standing lazily not far away. It was impossible to expect that big man to speak, so she said, "Oh, we just came to the town yesterday and now live in the south of the city. We just came to the street to buy some things and happened to run into you."

When the woman saw the kettle in his hand, she asked excitedly, "Did I drink your water?"

Jane really just wanted to say a little bit.

"Oh, I really am." The woman was a little annoyed. Her face was a little sallow, and her lips were chapped and obviously dehydrated, but she still did not have the joy of taking advantage of others. She just said, "Please wait a moment, I still have some water in my room..."

Jian Zhen quickly stopped her and said, "Madam, there is no need to do this. My husband and I just happened to be passing by, and we still have plenty of water at home. I just saw that you have several children, so keep it for them."

The woman was so moved that she wanted to stand up and kowtow: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir..."

Jian Zhen quickly stopped her and asked, "Madam, I'm just a little curious since I just arrived. Has it really never rained here in such a long time?"

The woman said quickly, "It did rain a little, but the rain came and went quickly, not enough for the people in our town to survive. For so long, the crops in the fields have died of drought, not to mention the cattle and sheep. Our town used to be very prosperous, but now many people have fled, leaving only the old, weak, and sick like us who are still here."

Jian Zhen helped her sit aside and said, "It will rain. It won't be dry forever."

The woman murmured, "I hope God will open his eyes. As long as the Taoist priest can come back, it will definitely rain again..."

Jian Zhen frowned and asked, "Master?"

"It's Taoist Master Shen Ji." The woman's eyes lit up, and she said hopefully, "As long as our town can raise enough money and tributes, the Taoist master will come to set up an altar and perform rituals to ask the Rain Master to bring rain."

Jian Zhen subconsciously said, "What kind of Taoist priest is this? You guys are all like this, does he still want to charge money to come?"

The woman hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Stop, young master, don't say anything nonsense. If the Taoist priest hears this..."

Seeing her pale and thin body, Jian Zhen felt a little sorry, so she had to say, "I understand, Madam, you should have a good rest first. I still have some water in this bottle. I know you care about the children, but if you are not here, how can you continue to take care of the children? You must take good care of yourself."

The woman wanted to refuse, and Jian Zhen stood up and was about to leave when she saw a child running back on the road not far away. He did not see the road clearly and bumped into Ye Jisheng.

A certain moment.

Jane Zhen's heart suddenly began to tighten.

The devil has an unpredictable temper, and anyone who dares to offend him will not end well.

After the child stood still, he was a little scared when he saw the strange tall man. However, Ye Jisheng just shook his clothes, glanced at the child calmly, and said to Jian Zhen: "Are you done talking?"

Jane really nodded.

Ye Jisheng said, "Let's go."

Jian Zhen quickly agreed. He looked at the thin, ragged child, rubbed his head gently and said, "Take good care of your mother. It will rain soon."

The little boy took it in a daze. He had never seen such a gentle brother. The man next to his brother was also tall and handsome. The two of them standing there had an inexplicable aura.

It's like...

It's like a god descending to earth.

Jian Zhen and Ye Jisheng walked forward, and only when they turned the corner and left the farmer's yard did he look at the demon.

Ye Jisheng didn't even need to look back: "What are you looking at me for?"

Jian Zhen said softly: "You are not angry."

Ye Jisheng spoke in a light tone, walking slowly on the cracked ground: "Is there anything that is worth my anger?"

Jian Zhen was referring to what happened just now: "That child bumped into you and even rubbed the mud in his hands onto your clothes, but you didn't get angry."

Ye Jisheng looked at him sideways and sneered, but a little sinisterly: "He is too weak. I am too lazy to argue with him. In your eyes, am I such a petty person?"

It’s over, this boss is angry again.

Jian Zhen said obediently: "No, it's just that those who dared to offend you in the past seemed to have died miserably, so..."

Ye Jisheng said: "I will not let anyone who offends me go."

Jian Zhen was stunned. Maybe these words were a little difficult to understand, but he understood that everyone Ye Jisheng dealt with was not an innocent person. Others thought he was easy to kill only because they had different standpoints.

Xiaocao suddenly felt that every time he thought he understood Ye Jisheng, he would feel that he did not understand him well enough.

Jian Zhen smiled and said, "It's great that you don't bother with that kid."

Ye Jisheng spoke indifferently as he walked and said lazily: "Although I am a divine body, all creatures in the three realms have the right to survive. As long as they don't get in my way, I have no interest in taking their lives."

Actually in short.

The Demon Lord has a clear distinction between love and hate. He does not care about life and death, but he also does not like indiscriminate killing.

All along.

Jian Zhen discovered that Ye Jisheng was actually careless, or rather, he not only didn't care about everything in this world, but he also didn't care about himself, as if he was detached from it.

Two people were talking.

Jian Zhen looked ahead and said in surprise: "The Earth God Temple!"

It was really effortless. I didn't expect that I could find it while walking along the street.

Ye Jisheng followed behind him.

Jian Zhen walked up the stairs and finally could see the whole picture of the land temple. It was a somewhat dilapidated land temple, but there were still some sparse incense sticks occasionally. Behind the land temple, there were piles of dead trees and a square well in the distance. There was a sense of desolation. It must be said that this place felt like it was used to shoot a horror movie.

There were footsteps behind me.

Ye Jisheng stood in the middle of the land temple, looking at the body of the land god on the temple.

Jane really came over and said, “Is there something wrong?”

Ye Jisheng looked at it for a while, then smiled thoughtfully and said, "It seems that the situation is more interesting than I thought."

Jian Zhen: “…”

Others say it's interesting.

Why is it so creepy when the devil says it's interesting?

The grass was a little scared.

The timid Xiaocao leaned towards Ye Jisheng and said, "Is there a ghost?"

Ye Jisheng glanced at him calmly and said, "There is no breath of ghosts here. Even if there are, the ones causing trouble will only be humans."

Jane blinked stupidly: "Ah"

Ye Jisheng seemed to be a little tired of watching, or felt annoyed, he said to Jian Zhen: "Let's go."

"Let's go now." Jian Zhen followed behind Ye Jisheng and said, "Didn't you say that the local god was suppressed by some Feng Shui? Aren't we here to remove the seal for him?"

Ye Jisheng asked, "Do you see that well?"

Jane really nodded and said, "I see."

"It doesn't matter if the place where the temple is built is a Feng Shui treasure land, it also needs to be well connected and gather the spiritual energy of the land." Ye Jisheng paused and said: "The temple here has a well in the south and a mountain in the north, which is the direction that cuts off the water vein. This kind of formation will definitely not be caused by accidental Feng Shui."

Jane Zhen slowly had a terrible guess in her heart: "You mean, someone did it on purpose?"

Who would do this on purpose?

Ye Jisheng sneered: "I have already told you that compared to demons and monsters in this world, human beings are the most terrifying."

Jian Zhen felt a chill in her back. She had thought this was a simple matter, but she had never expected that such a complicated matter would be involved behind it? !

Ye Jisheng turned around and said, "Let's go."

Jian Zhen asked, "Are you really not going to care?"

Ye Jisheng glanced at him and sneered, "If it is man-made, you can control it this time, but can you control it forever?"

Jian Zhen suddenly understood what he meant. They could save him once, but if this was really a scheme set up by the person behind the scenes, then what would happen afterwards? It would not be a long-term solution after all!

The two people walked back.

I met another old man pulling an empty cart in the town.

The old man took the initiative to ask: "Are you two out for a walk?"

Jian Zhen smiled and said, "Well, I just came to the town and walked around. Uncle, are you not busy today?"

The old man replied cheerfully, "Don't mention it. The water we brought back yesterday has already been distributed to all the households. Taoist Master Shen Ji will come to set up an altar and perform rituals in a few days. I have to go back early to prepare the offerings."

It’s this Taoist Master Shen Ji again.

Jian Zhen said: "Master, is this Taoist Master Shen Ji very powerful?"

The old man was very excited when he heard this. He said, "This is really amazing. After we had been suffering from drought for half a year, this Taoist priest Shen Ji came once. He set up an altar and performed a ritual, and it rained the next day. If the Taoist priest hadn't come every two or three months, I'm afraid the people in our town would have died long ago."

Jian Zhen was a little surprised and said, "He is so powerful, why does he come every few months?"

The old man said mysteriously, "Because we need to prepare offerings to worship the Rain Master, otherwise the Rain Master will not rain."

Jian Zhen felt that this matter was strange, so she asked, "Master, next time when that Taoist priest comes, can my husband and I come to take a look?"

The old man was very generous and said with a smile: "Of course! Let's meet in the east of the city in three days."

Jian Zhen thanked him quickly.

After chatting with the old man for a while, I came back and saw Ye Jisheng standing in front of a small stall looking at all kinds of sugar figures. Among them, there was a small sugar figure that was so lifelike that it was very photogenic.

Jian Zhen walked over and said, "Do you like it?"

I didn't expect that the Demon God also has such a childlike heart.

Ye Jisheng curled his lips and said, "I just think that this sugar man is really interesting. It looks bright and beautiful on the surface, but it's actually just a vain thing inside."

Jian Zhen: “…”

Sometimes it feels helpless to chat with big guys.

But look at the sugar man.

Jian Zhen thought of that Taoist Master Shen Ji again. He pulled Ye Jisheng aside and whispered what the old man had just said, and then concluded: "I think there is probably something wrong with that Taoist Master."

Ye Jisheng said calmly: "Yeah."

Jian Zhen: "? Why do you react like this?"

Ye Jisheng looked nonchalant, his handsome profile lazy and charming: "What else?"

Jian Zhen's brain has been working very fast recently, and he said actively: "We are here to find a way to repair our souls. We have been wandering around all day and found nothing. I think maybe this Taoist priest can make a breakthrough. We have to find a way to get close to this Taoist priest and learn more about him..."

Ye Jisheng said: "Why bother? If he has problems, just kill him directly."

Jian Zhen: “…”

Is this what it means to use your hands instead of your mouth?

The two returned to the house, it was almost night.

Originally, he was so absorbed in the matter of the land god temple and the Taoist priest outside that he had completely forgotten about the old housekeeper in the house.

But I don't want to.

When Jian Zhen and Ye Jisheng just stepped back into the house.

The old butler, accompanied by a group of maids and servants, stood in the courtyard of the mansion. Everyone said in unison, "Greetings, Master. Greetings, Madam!"

There was silence across the air.

Jane's mind went blank for a moment.

The old housekeeper came out from the back tremblingly and said, "The master and the mistress came over suddenly yesterday, and there was not much people in our house. The mistress is pregnant and needs to be taken care of. This is the servant I bought specially, please take a look."

Jane Zhen's eyes fell on these people.

Although they all changed into the same coarse cloth shirts, their thinness and sallow complexions could still be seen. These children were very young, and the youngest looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

I thought he wouldn't accept it.

The old housekeeper said hurriedly: "The indentures of these servants are all here. The price is very cheap. As long as the master gives them food, no wages are required."

It is indeed so.

Jian Zhen looked at Ye Jisheng. The Demon Lord never liked having outsiders in his residence. At this moment, his expression was indifferent, as if he was not very willing to accept them.

Facing the old butler's eager eyes.

Jian Zhen gently pulled Ye Jisheng's sleeve and whispered, "Take it. We came here incognito. If we really behave too out of place, we might be easily suspected."

Ye Jisheng chuckled, his eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

He saw through Jian Zhen's inner compassion and reluctance. Ye Jisheng withdrew his gaze calmly, and under Xiao Cao's worried gaze, he said to the old housekeeper: "Just keep it if you buy it."

The old butler breathed a sigh of relief.

Jian Zhen also revealed a faint smile.

The old housekeeper said, "The master and the mistress came back late. Have you had dinner yet? I will ask them to serve the dishes."

Ye Jisheng nodded calmly: "Yeah."

After all, they could use the excuse of having eaten yesterday, but today the whole town was watching, and they couldn't just make up something casually. If they were discovered that they hadn't eaten at all, it would be a big deal.

The two men came to the main hall.

Soon, servants came with steaming hot meals.

Jian Zhen looked at the dry steamed buns, meatballs, and green grass on the table. Even with such a simple meal, it seemed to be the best thing in this small town.

Ye Jisheng took the kettle from his waist and handed it to him: "Drink some."

There is Gyokuro.

Jian Zhen took it and drank a few sips, which relieved some of her fatigue.

Ye Jisheng asked, "Is it cold?"

Because if the Gyokuro that Jian Zhen drinks is too cold, she will easily vomit.

Jian Zhen took a few sips and said in a warm voice, "It's a little cold, but drinkable."

Ye Jisheng frowned and said, "Bring it here."

Jian was really afraid that he would use the magical hot water directly, so she quickly reminded him, "Just let it warm up a little, don't make it too hot."

Ye Jisheng then nodded calmly, sealed the lid of the jade bottle in his hand, handed it to the old butler and said, "Heat it up a little before sending it back. He can't drink it cold."

The old butler quickly agreed.

The other servants and maids serving behind witnessed the scene and secretly sighed that this handsome and wealthy businessman from the capital really loved his wife very much. He even personally asked about her temperature. He was truly a rare gentle and considerate man.

If the three realms knew of this idea, they would all be shocked.

After all, no one can associate the word gentleness with that bloodthirsty demon.

After Jian Zhen drank some water and ate a few more bites of food, she said to Ye Jisheng, "I'm full."

Ye Jisheng said to the people behind him: "You can just share these dishes among yourselves, no need to ask again."

The old housekeepers were ecstatic. After all, the town was now short of water and food, and being able to have a full meal was a great luxury. It was truly a happy event.

Jian Zhen went back with Ye Jisheng.

He was a little tired after walking around the town during the day, and soon fell asleep in Ye Jisheng's arms.

When he woke up the next day, Ye Jisheng was already dressed neatly and sitting on a chair in the house. Seeing that he was awake, he said, "I have some things to deal with. I have already set up a magic circle in this house. Don't go out today. Rest in the mansion."

The two of them were really tired from running around.

Hearing Lord Demon say this, I didn't have any objections.

Jian Zhen nodded and said, "But what happened to the Immortal Clan?"

Ye Jisheng smiled with an ambiguous meaning and said, "Why, are you worried about your Immortal Lord?"

Jian Zhen said angrily: "I didn't."

The only person in these three realms who can stand with the Immortal King is the Demon God, but the Demon God has always been with him, so what does he have to worry about?

Ye Jisheng stood up and said, "It's not the Immortal Clan's business, it's just some small matters. I'm going to kill a few people and will be back soon."

Jian Zhen: “…”

Xiaocao was shocked.

How could someone combine a trivial matter with murder?

Just as he was thinking about it, Ye Jisheng had already gone out. Jian Zhen didn't ask too much. Although he didn't know who to kill, he now had trust and knew that the Demon Lord would not kill innocent people.

The sun gradually rises.

Jian Zhen washed up in the bedroom and walked out of the house, just in time to see the housekeeper walking towards her.

The housekeeper was also hired yesterday. She said enthusiastically, "The master has gone out to do some work. Is there anything you need? I will help you with it!"

Jian Zhen said softly: "No."

The housekeeper took the initiative to say, "How about letting the maids and servants who came yesterday sing some opera for the master to entertain him?"

Jane really showed some interest, nodded and said, "Okay."

They are practical people.

Soon a stage was set up in the backyard of the mansion. Unexpectedly, these servants and maids could really sing. Although Jian Zhen didn't quite understand, it was quite interesting to listen to the humming and singing.

The housekeeper took the initiative to ask: "What do you think, Master?"

Jian Zhen nodded and said, "You sang very well."

"As long as the master likes them." The housekeeper said with a smile, "It will be more lively with more people. If the master doesn't mind, you can pick a few you like and let the master take them in to relieve the boredom. Now the master is pregnant and it is inconvenient. These maids and servants are all clean. If you personally choose them, it will definitely be the most appropriate."

Jian Zhen: “…Ah?”

Xiaocao was so confused that he didn't even react.

Give, to whom to entertain?

Night music to relieve boredom?

The housekeeper hesitated, thinking that Jian was really unhappy, and said quickly: "Master, I am also thinking about you. After all, you are pregnant now, and the master will always feel lonely and bored..."

Jian Zhen was silent for a moment, then said softly, "When he's bored, he has his own way of relieving boredom."

The housekeeper was puzzled: "What?"

Jian Zhen: “…”

He couldn't say that when the Demon Lord was bored, he liked to deal with small matters.

for example……

Kill a few people for fun?
