Chapter 146: The Call of the Ancients (Part 4)
"Gu Yun, something is wrong with you now!"
Faced with the unreasonable request made by Gu Yun, Bai Yuan spread her wings fiercely, fought with reason, and acted as if she was vowing to live and die with Black Smoke. "First, she disappeared for more than a month without reason, and then she came back and had the idea of someone else's baby! This behavior is wrong. I hope you can realize your mistake in time and correct it!"
"Operating system" and "Bug" are concepts she heard from Anling. Although she doesn't understand what the two are, it's very important in short.
Black Smoke is now as important to her space as the operating system to a computer. Without Black Smoke, her space will not take long to return to the messy state in the past.
Unfortunately, Bai Yuan's bluffing situation could not scare Gu Yun, and he knew very well how to negotiate with Bai Yuan.
If it were someone else, you might also need to know the steps of moving the emotions and reasoning. However, for Bai Yuan, reporting numbers is the most direct and effective way.
So he stretched out seven fingers according to the original plan, "I want to borrow for seven days. During these seven days, we will provide you with a basket of small corn every day as additional compensation."
"Hmph, who do you think of me as? Do you want to send me a basket of little corn?"
"Total of seven baskets."
"What? Seven baskets?"
Bai Yuan widened her eyes. She did not respond immediately, but lowered her head and muttered to herself, "One basket a day, two baskets in two days, three baskets in three days... There are seven baskets of small corn in seven days!"
At the end, she came to the conclusion in surprise.
Seven baskets of small corn are even much faster than farming efficiency, just like robbing a corn field directly!
Xiaojiu saw the obvious wavering in Bai Yuan's eyes. For some reason, she suddenly felt sad.
Poor Bai Kai was played in the palm of his hands by cunning humans.
"And I will return the black smoke to you seven days later. I, Gu Yun, never lie to you."
Gu Yun has always been the last straw that crushed the pigeon. Bai Yuan wanted to refuse harshly, but this time the other party gave too much.
She reluctantly opened a crack in the space. The black smoke, who was commanding the devil's hard worker to make the packaging box, fell heavily to the ground.
Since the last "system innovation" added a demon, he has been promoted from hard work to contractor. Now all the dirty and tiring work has been thrown to the demons and hard work. However, he has not enjoyed a few days of blessing and seems to have been involved in other events - being thrown to the ground for some reason, making him want to be furious, but after seeing the identity of the onlookers in the room, he kept silent tactfully.
The last time he escaped from the Seal Pot, he was too excited and led to a tragic ending later.
Whenever the night is late, Black Smoke's heart is filled with regret.
Based on his later understanding of Gu Yun and others, if he had shouted "Unity and friendship, build a harmonious community together" when he escaped from the Seal Pot, he might have been free long ago.
As an unlucky person who has experienced the bitter fruit of his mouth, Heiyan now deeply understands the principle of being cautious in his words and actions.
Immediately afterwards, he saw a familiar face in the crowd, and the other party was also looking at him with curious and smiling eyes.
"I heard you're dead."
In fact, there are fine traditions that are unrelated to each other, but when Heiyan heard that his junior sister died at the hands of several Taoist priests, he was really sad for a while. At that time, he had been sealed in the iron can that was in trouble and worshipped by a group of ordinary people.
Those monsters and monsters named after history died one by one, as if they saw an era gradually coming to an end.
Xiaojiu didn't reply, but just looked at him with a smile.
"So, you are here to save me."
"No, you misunderstood."
Xiaojiu shook his head, "I just happened to introduce you to a job, which is better than working hard in a dark place."
"Work?"
"That's right."

A moment later, Gu Yun was at home.
"You mean, want me to attach to this thing?"
Black smoke hovered before the totem. When he first heard about the work, he actually refused. After all, attaching it to objects to lure people into a trap is the weak, and the real evil spirit should be on the front.
However, after seeing the true appearance of the "wood carving", he finally realized that things might not be as simple as he imagined. The familiar patterns on the totem told him that this was definitely not an ordinary job, but a business that would be scattered if he was not careful.
"Can it be done?"
"able."
Heiyan said, "But you let me attach to this, the one who wants to seduce me should not be ordinary people, right?"
"Well, they are the remnants of the gods."
"God clan?"
After thinking a little, Black Smoke said, "I haven't heard of this totem, but I've seen it many times. They are scattered around the world, and each pattern is different, but it contains similar energy."
When he was sealed in a container, his only goal was to find a way to break the seal, but all kinds of strange people in this world became his target. "As far as I know, most of the people who have come into contact with this totem have gained unique power... I didn't expect that you actually wanted to fake this thing."
"Do you know where they come from?"
"I heard a little bit."
Heiyan said, "The person who created these totems is the same existence as the teacher."
Humans, monsters, and ghosts are probably not enough to describe their identity. He has been wandering in the world for several years ago and witnessed the change of countless dynasties, but teachers and disasters are longer than them.
"I can help you pull them out, but I have a condition."
Black Smoke said.
There are only him and Gu Yun in this room at this moment. It is a great time to negotiate terms. Since this job requires him to risk his soul being lost, he must also get equal returns. "When this job is completed, you can let me go."
"no."
Gu Yun's response was straightforward, "I made an agreement with Bai Yuan and I will return you in seven days."
"Hey, are you trying to negotiate well? I'm going to risk losing my soul!"
"You don't need to take any risks. If the remnants of the gods appear, I will solve them myself."
Gu Yun not only refused to be quite decisive, but also showed an attitude of not getting into the air.
"Is that how you convince others to work with you?"
"Apart from this condition, I can make concessions elsewhere."
“For example?”
"Biri said that after I returned you, I can send you some small gifts."
"gift?"
Black Smoke was also confused by Gu Yun, but as Gu Yun's identity, the small gifts he gave were all heard only in legends...
“Cookies.”
"What?"
“Creamy and chocolatey, which one do you like?”
