I’m Really Not The Demon God’s Lackey

At 6:30 in the morning, Lin Jie opened his eyes to the sound of the alarm clock, and started an ordinary day as usual.

Three years are like a day, get up, dress, wash.

"It feels more and more that something is wrong..."

Lin Jie looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help but complain.

Although the general appearance hasn't changed much, it's still so deceptive...No, it's convincing, but it's completely different in subtle ways.

I can't see the specific difference.

It's as if someone gave him a modifier and insisted on asking him to say that on the basis of the original, his temperament became more like an MLM leader.

This is not derogatory, but it means that he might have to chat with others first, enlighten him, and then show a standard business smile, the other party thinks he is shining like a life mentor.

And now, to exaggerate, if someone hires him to be a missionary priest, he probably only needs to put on the priest's robe and smile.

"Maybe someone will confess on the spot."

Lin Jie teased himself, rubbed his cheek with a headache, and could feel the outline of the extra teeth inside.

He is very confident about his eyesight and memory, and he is sure that his feelings are not wrong.

Although teeth are indeed a very significant factor in a person's appearance and temperament, suddenly there are eight more teeth, and he naturally has an expectation of the current situation.

But the problem is that the appearance of teeth is also very problematic.

In Buddhism, there is a saying of "Tathagata Thirty-two Phases", among which there is a "Forty-tooth Phases".

The beautiful and delicate teeth symbolize the softness of the Buddha's words and treat the world with kindness as a father.

In addition, in some wild history rumors, it is said that Lao Tzu also has forty teeth.

Forty teeth are the symbol of "perfect human".

Of course, Lin Jie, who has a doctorate in folklore, does not know the significance of the eight extra teeth.

It's just that he habitually doesn't go deep into these.

Just like when he studies folk customs and conducts field research, many times, he will encounter some strange and incomprehensible things.

But Lin Jie just watched it for fun, recorded it and made the material and it was done.

He is studying folk customs, not approaching the scientific column group.

"But this is a bit too much, right?"

Lin Jie sighed and went downstairs: "When Xiao Hei comes out next time, ask him."

After much deliberation, only Xiao Hei may be able to answer his questions.

He didn't know a few people in this world, most of them were his guests.

All of these have to be filled with chicken soup. As their spiritual support and life mentor, if they ask questions, wouldn't they indirectly destroy their psychological sustenance?

And how do you tell people about this situation? Could it be that you suddenly grew eight more teeth?

Aha, it will scare others.

forget it.

So as not to make others inexplicably troublesome like Melissa's bear kid.

Lin Jie shook his head and smiled. He walked to the counter and cleaned up the countertop. By the way, he turned on the electric kettle. Before it could boil, he heard a knock on the door.

He turned his head in doubt.

Usually at this point in time, no guests will come to the door.

Moreover, in the current weather conditions, it is estimated that no one would want to get up so early to such a broken bookstore.

Thinking about it this way, there is a high probability that it should be an old customer.

Although the sky was dim as always, he could still see the outline of the guests outside, and he felt very familiar.

"Pharaoh?"

The figure outside the door responded with a low voice, and banged up the umbrella and bent over to put it down.

Lin Jie walked over and confirmed it a little while later, opening the door and habitually saying: "Welcome..."

He thought to himself, why did Pharaoh come back so soon?

There have been three trips in almost half a month, which has caught up to half of the past two years.

It is not an exaggeration to call it a diarrhea visit.

Lin Jie doesn't think that within half a month, Lao Wang can thoroughly integrate his "Ritual and Folklore" and add it to his field of research. In other words, this is actually impossible.

After all, after crossing two civilizations, without learning from the basics, it will be like modern studies of ancient times, and only a general idea can be understood.

But according to what he said before, this book gave him a lot of inspiration.

It should be because of this in my own research field, I have a new perception or research direction.

According to Lin Jie's general experience, at this time, you should take advantage of this energy to immerse yourself in the research and quickly get the results of the research out.

Before

Second, Lao Wang did the same.

So every time I borrowed a book, there would be at least a few months without people, and a few months later, I would borrow the book again.

It has only been a few days now, and there is no doubt that something is wrong.

Could it be that something happened?

"jingle."

Lin Jie opened the door with doubts, and it turned out that it was Pharaoh standing outside the door.

The iconic black top hat and neat old suit, the stowed black umbrella is placed by the door, dripping with water.

Wilde raised his head and looked at Lin Jie. The eyes under the mask showed respect as always. He took off his hat and bowed slightly, saying, "Good morning, Mr. Lin."

"good Morning."

Lin Jie smiled back, then opened the door completely and let Old Wang come in first.

Then he turned around and walked to the counter to turn off the kettle, and poured a cup of hot water to Pharaoh.

"Is there something urgent? Come here so early. If I'm still in a dream, Lao Wang, you will be frozen outside the door. At your age, there is a high chance of accidents. Please remember to be safe next time. "

"Nowadays, many people are cold-hearted, and even the elderly are unwilling to support them for fear of causing trouble.

"Oh, you can't actually blame them, Pharaoh...Have you heard the story of'The Farmer and the Snake'?"

Chatting with guests is also part of enhancing the relationship.

And if I came here so early, I must be a little tired. It would be too cold to directly ask the question "Do you want to borrow a book?" It's better to tell a short story.

Wilde shook his head, saying that he didn't know.

"The story is simple, but it's also worth remembering—"

"On a cold winter, the farmer who came home from the market found a snake on the side of the road. He thought it was freezing, so he put it in his arms."

"The snake was frightened, and when it was fully awake, it instinctively bit the farmer and the farmer died because of it."

Lin Jie nagged and poured himself a glass of water, smiled and said, "However, if you fall in front of my door, I will definitely not die. After all, we are old friends and we have a basis for feelings."

Of course, a qualified teacher will never forget to assign interactive homework after class.

Lin Jie asked, "Pharaoh, do you think it is the fault of the farmer or the snake in this story? When the farmer dies, will he blame his own ignorance and weakness, or blame the snake's cruelty and indifference?"

Wilde looked up and saw the meaningful eyes of the bookstore owner. His body was shocked, and the water in the cup in his hand almost spilled out~www.ltnovel.com~Novel) The update is the fastest. Remember to collect it!
