Chapter 3, Immortals? Monsters? Immortals! Monsters!

Upon hearing the man's words, Siyuan wore an expression of disbelief. He did not know or even recognize this person, yet he could recount his own affairs as if they were well-known facts. This was not something an ordinary person could accomplish. Moreover, Siyuan was not so narcissistic as to think that someone would follow and investigate him, a social bottom-feeder whose death would go unnoticed, not even leaving a smell in the room.

It is not a systematic one; they are more famous. Our system is not very well-known. Do you know the Yellow Emperor?

After pondering back and forth, Siyuan was able to discern some reasoning, but just at that moment, the doors and windows of the room suddenly began to move in a strange manner, and in an instant, Siyuan found himself isolated in the small bedroom

Siyuan stabilized his emotions, his mind replaying the plots from novels and animated series he had previously encountered, with scenes such as an old man residing in a ring, an old immortal living in a backpack, a monster dwelling in a gourd, and an old butler residing in a teacup surfacing one after another

You ... ... who are you ?

Si Yuan was completely baffled, but judging by this person's overall condition, it was clear that he was no ordinary character. Even if he wasn't the old man residing in the ring, he was certainly a spirit beast.

Holding the red copper bagua compass in his hand, he unconsciously twisted it. Although he did not understand why Dazhuang ultimately assigned him the task of rotating the compass, there must be some significance to it

Qi Siyuan, a nice name. Born under the Fire element, aged 24. A rather good fate, but this year your given name faces a significant calamity. In your family, there are five male cousins: Dingyuan, Weiyuan, Enyuan, Jiyuan, and Siyuan, with you being the third in line, possessing the best temper.

Who are you? Where do you come from?

Ah, I knew you wouldn't recognize me. Ying Zhao crossed her arms and said, "Let me put it this way, I am a celestial being, indeed, a great celestial being"

Qi ... ... Qi ... ... Qi Siyuan ... ...

"Little friend, what is your name?" The man looked up and examined Siyuan: "There is a clear aura between your brows, not bad, it seems you have not committed any evil until now"

Originally

"Here." The man kicked the compass that Si Yuan had thrown on the ground and said, "Did you not use this to summon me just now?"

Hmm! Siyuan nodded vigorously: "I don't think you are a bad person"

Hello. The young man greeted Si Yuan with a warm smile, his voice gentle and pleasant, almost bending Si Yuan's straightness even though he was not gay: "Get up first, I am Bai Ze"

Suddenly, a gigantic monster appeared beside Siyuan, with the body of a horse and the face of a human, sporting two wings and tiger stripes beneath its wings, surrounded by swirling auspicious clouds, looking quite magnificent

At the very center of the garden, there stands a large tree of indeterminate age, its species indistinguishable. Beneath the tree lies a chessboard, adorned with black and white pieces, clearly representing a stalemate.

Siyuan was instantly bewildered, and the whole person appeared quite adorable

Ah?

Hmm..." The man fell silent for a moment: "Are you sure you want to know?"

After the man stood up, Siyuan noticed that he had a robust physique, and there were a few faint tiger stripes on the back of his neck. However, they did not appear strange; instead, they exuded a sense of righteousness.

Oh, little friend, your question is quite philosophical. The man spread his hands and said, "I come from the heavens"

In the sky

After fiddling for a long time without success, Siyuan suddenly remembered the task that Dazhuang had entrusted to him. He then took the compass in his hand again and began to attempt to turn it counterclockwise.

Forget it, I'll handle it myself. The man closed his eyes and extended his left index finger to draw a circle in the palm of his right hand, muttering to himself for a while before reopening his eyes. With a look of sudden realization, he murmured to himself: So it turns out the great calamity hasn't passed, damn it, the organization is really disrespectful, my subordinate just died without even a word of notice.

The sudden sound made Siyuan tremble all over; instinctively, he turned around, pressing his back firmly against the door, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at the man sitting on the bed, flipping through a magazine titled "Light Weapons".

After waiting for about ten minutes, once Siyuan's emotions had completely calmed down, Yingzhao helplessly said: "Little friend, although I may have somewhat subverted your aesthetic views, but... never mind, I will find a beautiful one to come over!"

Strange... " Siyuan was taken aback, releasing his already numb hand, he inhaled sharply, thinking to himself: " Dazhuang is a special police officer, could this thing be a bomb? It can't be, who would put a bomb in their own home for no reason? "

What kind of auspicious omen is this! Siyuan's hair is almost standing on end from fright. In his understanding, an auspicious omen should at least resemble Teacher Zhao Zhongxiang, so how could there be such an ugly omen!

Siyuan was suddenly startled, and before he could react, he fell awkwardly. After rolling and crawling for several meters, he was pulled back beside Yingzhao with a claw.

I am so auspicious in appearance, what is there to be afraid of?

It is not something that can be explained easily at the moment. You just confirmed that you want to ask me for my name, right? Then it will be as such. You will temporarily take over Ye Zhuangzhuang's work until I find a new investigator. I will provide you with a handover list shortly.

Although it is unclear why this man, who appears to be in his early thirties, keeps referring to others as "little friend," Siyuan still instinctively uttered the name, as if this guy possessed some kind of magic.

He quickly rushed to the door, turning the doorknob with all his strength, but the knob remained completely unresponsive. In desperation, he shouted loudly: "Is anyone listening! Help!"

I... I? Summon you?" Siyuan was momentarily taken aback, staring blankly at the man: "How can I summon you?"

Ah? Siyuan poked his head out, blinking his eyes as he looked at Yingzhao, clearly not understanding the situation

This roundabout discussion left Si Yuan feeling a bit confused, for throughout his life, in his understanding, the Jade Emperor was none other than the Yellow Emperor himself

Who am I? The man slightly lifted his eyelids and glanced at Siyuan: "You summoned me, and you ask me who I am?"

Plants become spirits, birds and beasts become monsters, water and fire become deities, and humans become ghosts, while spirits, ghosts, and monsters are all considered demons. Of course, if you wish, you can regard them all as immortals

"Bai Ye, come here," Ying Zhao called out to the large white deer, "It's time for the little ones' lesson, your favorite."

Looking at the guy in front of her with a completely clueless expression, Ying Zhao slapped her forehead and said, "I... Ying Zhao!"

As he spoke, he let out a whistle, and then he saw a colorful cloud slowly drifting from afar. As it drew closer, Siyuan discovered that there was actually a white deer standing on it, which looked far more beautiful than Yingzhao.

But this time, no matter how he kicked and shouted, the sound seemed to be blocked by that thin door. The sounds from outside could not come in, and the sounds from inside could not go out

The man is dressed in a sharp suit, has a patch of goatee on his chin, and wears a pair of brown-tinted glasses, giving him a very stylish appearance

Ah ... ... Ying Zhao ah ... ...

Aren't immortals just figures like the Barefoot Immortal, the Elder of the South Pole, and Yang Jian?

Siyuan was instantly stunned; he rubbed his eyes vigorously, trying to prove to himself that he was dreaming. However, no matter how much he rubbed or pinched, there was not the slightest sign of waking up.

Oh my...

Have you had enough fun? Then let us begin to hear what I have to say. Of course, the choice is always yours; if you are unwilling, we will not force you.

He is aware of the sound insulation of the room; even if someone burps in the room, the person closing the door and using the bathroom can hear it clearly. There is no such thing as unclear sound.

The white deer remained silent, silently drifting in front of Siyuan, and in an instant transformed into a young man in white clothing. This young man had a delicate appearance and extremely lively eyes, and the long robe he wore made him feel as if he were a celestial being descended from the heavens, exuding an air of freshness and otherworldliness.

It was only after he mentioned it that Siyuan recalled the unusual crisp sound emitted by the strange compass earlier

After jumping out of sadness once again, Siyuan leaned against the bed and pulled out a thick cigarette that Dazhuang had forgotten to take away. He took a deep drag and stared at the ceiling, unable to calm down for a long time

A crisp explosion interrupted Siyuan's daydreaming, and he quickly looked down at the strange object in his hand, but after examining it for a long time, he found nothing amiss.

Just as Siyuan's head was still buzzing and his consciousness had not yet been pulled back, a murmuring suddenly sounded in his ear

Recognizing ... ...

"Living in here? Please do not joke."

What are you afraid of there

As soon as the words fell, Siyuan felt a blur before his eyes, and the scenery around him instantly became hazy. After a period of bizarre and fantastical sights, everything before him suddenly became clear, and he simultaneously realized that he was no longer in Dazhuang's room, but had arrived in a vast and boundless beautiful garden.

Then it's settled, I am under the command of that old man, not part of the same system as the Jade Emperor

Ding

It is quite strange that the compass, which could initially rotate freely, now cannot be moved even a fraction, no matter how hard Siyuan tries; it seems as if it has been welded shut, remaining almost completely still

Ying Zhao let out a long sigh, took out his phone from his pocket and glanced at it: "Alright, I still have some time, I will give you a good lesson!"

Oh... it seems I've encountered a novice. The man leaned against the wall, picked up the remaining half of a cigarette butt from the ashtray, brought it to his lips, and took a sorrowful puff. To his surprise, the already extinguished cigarette butt suddenly ignited: "So where is that guy?"

Yes, Baize. The young man gently nodded and said: This is the legendary West Kunlun you speak of, and the tree beside you is the Blood Jade Peaches.

After carefully checking around, he pondered in confusion: "It clearly rang just now, so why is there not a sound at all now"

Hey, this world is not filled with bad people running rampant. Do not assume someone is not a bad person just because they do not look like one. As for me, I am truly not a bad person. " The man extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray: "I, Ying Zhao, govern the mountains of Huai River and the plains of the Emperor.

Are you saying that you live in here

Bai Ze

Who exactly are you
