Chapter 115

After being attacked by an unknown person in the store that day, Yuan Yuanyuan went home and stayed for two days. She has been hiding in the room, not disguised, just hiding in the room to read comics.

Originally Yuan Yuanyuan had a lot of things to do every day, so although she often fished, she seldom could calm down and read a comic or a novel quietly.

That is, today, Yuan Yuanyuan was afraid of causing trouble, and she didn't have to go to work on weekends, so she could sit down and watch something casually, as if she had given herself a vacation.

Yuan Yuanyuan got up in the morning to cook instant noodles, and came back to clean up her house. In fact, she was worried about one thing, and that was how Liu An was doing today. She gave him 200 yuan yesterday, which was the only spare money she had saved this month. She originally wanted to buy some snacks or something, but she was afraid that he would have no place to live, so she gave it to him first.

For two hundred yuan, you can live in a rental house like that for five or six days.

Yuan Yuanyuan was a little upset. She wondered whether she should change her shape and go out secretly to see how Liu An was doing. She always felt that she was not a good boss. However, she reminded herself several times in her heart to "don't go out" before she gradually calmed down.

And now Liu An, who is concerned by her, is sitting quietly in a small house, looking at the sky outside.

"Why did you come to see me?" Three Scars asked, "You have nowhere to go recently?"

"One thing..." Liu An said, "What are you doing? What are you preparing for?"

He pointed to a large box that San Dao Scar was holding in his hand. The box was polished with a stone and looked very smooth.

Although the monsters have transformed into human figures, their living habits are still quite close to the beast period. This can be seen from the fact that many monsters live in the wild and exchange stones and leaves.

It took a lot of thought to look at this box. After reading it, Liu An felt curious as to who deserves so much attention from the three scars, so he asked who he was giving it to.

"For the regional boss." San Daosi turned his head and said: "The regional boss has taken care of us a lot this year. You may have just come here, so you haven't seen our boss. But I'm sure, if you know After that, you won't be ready for anything."

"...Ah?" Liu An looked at the three scars with a puzzled expression on his face.

He was mainly puzzled why when San Dao Scar mentioned this boss, there was a ruddy look on his face, similar to that of a young girl who saw an idol...

Liu An shook his head. He didn't expect that the three scars would still have such a girly side.

He turned around to clean up his bedding, San Dao Scar was still stuffing some things into the box, then sealed the opening, took a note and wrote his name on it.

The monsters in City C have been busy preparing for the Chinese New Year recently. Although they don't have the concept of going home to reunite with their families, there is another thing, which is the rules they have always followed.

When Yuan Yuanyuan was eating instant noodles, she heard a buzzing sound on her phone, which made her upset. She picked up the phone and looked at the contents, and found that the sound that had been buzzing and vibrating was the sound of Fat Cat and Black and Red chatting all the time.

They posted a lot of pictures in the group, Yuan Yuanyuan sometimes didn't understand what they were talking about, so they often couldn't get in. But she would still be able to peek at the screen, and maybe she would understand by peeping and peeping.

This time, as usual, they were talking about something Yuan Yuanyuan couldn't understand. Yuan Yuanyuan couldn't understand what they were talking about, but they saw several beautiful pictures.

A picture is of a huge tree, which seems to be carved by ice and snow. It was taken in the dark night. In the dark night, it is like a tree of elves.

There is another photo that impressed her deeply. That photo is of countless black smoke rising from the ground and then converging in the sky. It is the posture of a hundred ghosts walking at night, but this was definitely seen by Yuan Yuanyuan. The largest Hundred Ghosts Night Walk.

[Group owner: This is the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk organized by our family this year, and that tree is with the little monsters below. 】

[Black and Red: Wow... I want to hijack you, have you received anything?]

[Group owner: Yes, I can pretend anyway, okay? Are you underestimating my pretending skills too much? 】

Yuan Yuanyuan wasn't watching what the two of them were talking about, it seemed that the fat cat was just showing off his wealth. But no matter how he shows off his wealth, Yuan Yuanyuan, a poor guy, doesn't feel much, because the gap is too far, and there is no heart fluctuation at all. If you throw a hundred yuan in front of her, maybe she will react better than her. This is big.

She opened Mengman again, then hit Hache, waiting for today's comic to be updated.

The last issue of the comic drew the story of the man in red and Faning, and now she would like to see if the next issue will draw the relationship between the two.

However, as soon as the cover of this issue came out, Yuan Yuanyuan knew that the love scene was gone, because the cover character of this issue was Faning alone.

But in addition to Faning, there is a faint background behind it. The background is very beautiful. It is a very large head of monsters. The heads of these monsters are crowded in a black smoke.

Huh? This black smoke is...

Yuan Yuanyuan recognized what this background was, and it was actually the background of Hundred Ghosts Night Walk.

Today's comic is interesting. It has a pure Taoist priest in the front, and then a huge picture of a hundred ghosts walking in the night in the back.

What is this for... Want to draw Fanning's battle against the hundred demons?

However, this plot is a bit unconnected, isn't it a bit abrupt? Besides, that rookie, Faning, although she doesn't despise rookie chickens, how can you say that monsters can't be so weak.

Yuan Dot opened the comic. At the beginning, what he drew was not Fanin's picture, but a very large city overhead view.

From top to bottom, the bustling city is very quiet, but it is extraordinarily lively.

The comics are silent, but the whole city is brightly lit, with countless neon lights and colorful lights lit in the city.

But beyond those lights, there is still a creature that graces the city.

[Monsters. 】

[Although it is now the industrial age, the monsters still live according to the way they lived in the old times. They shuttle among the tall buildings, just like they shuttle through the forest. 】

[The monsters are very resilient, even in very harsh environments, they still maintain their own way of life. 】

Yuan Yuanyuan paused when she saw the sentence "Monsters are very resilient". She was deeply touched by this, the monsters are really too alive.

But she didn't continue to entangle on it, and continued to look down.

[Countless dots of light rose from the ground and flew into the sky. They are all monsters in this city. As the Chinese New Year is approaching, these monsters have begun to prepare their own New Year's resolutions. 】

[Fining looked at the monsters who came and went, and lived here for two months. This was the first time in his life that he lived with the monsters so closely. 】

[In the past two months, he has seen a lot of monsters' unique way of life. Although he has learned a lot from the demon slayer before, he can't really understand those seniors until he is there. what some of the words mean. 】

[He remembered that he had seen such a sentence in a book - monsters respect the strong, and their respect for the strong has even reached an extreme state. 】

[This kind of obedience to the strong is even imprinted in their bones and blood. 】

...

"At that time, our city C had big monsters that all living beings were afraid of. It was because of those big monsters that we could stand in C city." The old man said, "But now, those big monsters have almost all fallen."

"It's not your fault, after all it's a war." Lin Guan said, "But do you really want to call Yuan out?"

"When we left him, didn't we expect this situation?" The old man looked at Lin Guan and said, "It's just that we were all worried about Yuan's state at that time, so we didn't put too much attention on it."

"And now? How can you be sure that he will agree to you now?"

"C City is his home anyway, the place where he was born and raised." The old man said, "If I go there now, he should understand what I mean."

"Do you have any friendship with him...?" Lin Gu Gu said hesitantly.

"It's not a big friendship, but when he first joined the army, he was his team captain for four years." The old man sighed, "But after the Blood Jade Demon Army recruited him, there was nothing between us. got engaged."

"Hey, you two still have this kind of friendship?" Lin Gu Gu suddenly became interested. He really didn't expect the old man in front of him to be that person's team captain back then.

"The last time we met... No, it should be the last time I met Yiqi, it was in the trial court." The old man said, "I didn't know what happened at the time, but before that, I thought he would become An unprecedented monster."

"Was he... very powerful back then?" Lin Gu Gu asked, "how powerful?"

"Heh." The old man laughed in a vague tone, "How powerful? How powerful are you asking him?"

There was a hint of sigh in his voice.

"If you turn back time to this time a hundred years ago... can you imagine what his doorway looked like?"

"Well... there are a lot of monsters?" Lin Gu Gu asked, "and all kinds of offerings?"

"A lot of monsters?" The old man's voice became strange again, "No, almost all monsters."

"All."

...

The room was calm for a moment, and for a moment, Lin Gu Gu was stunned, but he quickly reacted.

"Um..." His expression also became strange. "Sounds very interesting... The madmen from the southern faction and the monsters in our city C can actually reach an agreement?"

His words obviously didn't get to the point, but the old man didn't pay too much attention to his words that he was obviously changing the subject. Lin Gu's character was like this, and it wasn't a day or two.

"There is no monster who learns tricks and doesn't know him." The old man said softly, "Every battle of his will be recorded by the monster with a high-priced jade plate, and then studied repeatedly."

"Well...but now almost every big monster is like this, it's not unusual." Lin Guan said.

"No, the concept is different." The old man said: "The monsters study each of his magic arts, not because they want to observe how a magic magic is used. However, the jade plates recorded by the big monsters can only be pure and simple. I learned from it how to use a witchcraft."

"They study sorcery because they want to learn this sorcery," the old man repeated. "It's not learning how to use it, it's simply learning."

"Ah? Does it make any difference?" Lin Gu Gu asked, "Isn't it all... learning how to use it?"

"Of course there is a difference." The old man said, "Learning is not the same as being a servant. Otherwise, where do you think the tricks you have learned now come from?"

...

[The worship of monsters for powerful power has gradually become a strange feature. 】 Yuan Yuanyuan thought slowly, "They are a group that is very easy to be agitated. Once a strong person appears, they will become the leader of this group. 】

[In addition to the unique system of big monsters protecting little monsters, the monsters will send gifts to the big monsters they admire most during the New Year. 】

Why do you say it so euphemistically... Isn't it just tribute in disguise? Yuan Yuanyuan complained.

Maybe it's because she's a half-demon, so she can't understand this kind of psychology. She can understand even paying tribute at ordinary times, but when she can make her own decision, almost all monsters will pay tribute.

From the point of view of a girl with a human mind, some of them have helped a lot at ordinary times, so even if the tribute is expressed as a thank you, some are completely feudal slaves and slave owners. Understand.

Yuan Yuanyuan spit out a sentence and didn't take it seriously. She has always been not very interested in the sociology of monsters. However, in the early childhood area in the distance, a little girl was led by her mother to a square.

"Sweet, just put it there." Mom said.

"If you put it there, will the big monster senior receive it?" the little girl asked.

"Okay." Mom said with a smile.

In fact, she didn't tell her daughter that even if it was put there, the big monster might not be able to receive it, because he never showed up at all.

However, when paying tribute this year, many monsters spontaneously prepared a copy for this big monster. Because they couldn't find where he was, they placed them in this conspicuous square.

Mom led the little girl back again. Today's moon is very round.

A few scattered boxes, large and small, were placed in the deserted square, and when the moon shone, they reflected a silver light.
