Chapter 118

On New Year's Day, the Chinese people's habit is to hide at home and not go out. There are no shops on the street, and there are even few taxis. It looks quite deserted.

Of course, if the family is reunited at this time, then of course, it will not feel deserted at all. Yuan Yuanyuan is alone at home now.

In fact, this sounds pretty miserable, but she didn't feel unhappy today. If you really don't feel deserted, it's unlikely, but Yuan Yuanyuan is used to it alone.

Yuan Yuanyuan stood at the door early in the morning, tore off last year's blessing couplet, and replaced it with the one that was given to her when she went to the bank to deposit money last month, with the "China Construction Bank·Bank" watermark underneath. Couplets and blessings.

She posed for a long time, pressed the watermark on the couplet with the blessing, and pressed the watermark on the couplet on the banner. The top and bottom of the banner were folded. In the end, when looked from a distance, couldn't see a single watermark, it was perfect.

Yuan Yuanyuan stood at the door and gave herself a slap, with praise and pride for her artistic skills.

The refrigerator was full of things, and it was the most filled since meeting her.

There were leeks on the stove, Yuan Yuanyuan had washed them thoroughly early in the morning, and then put them on the iron steamer to drain.

What are leeks in winter... they are luxury goods, everyone, Yuan Yuanyuan bought them for three days, but they cost 12 yuan per pound, which is almost the same price as pork. Today, it is estimated that it will rise to 30 yuan.

The garbage refrigerator in her house is very small. It is available in the landlord's house. It is estimated that it will take more than ten years. The bag was hanging out of the window, so she suddenly looked outside the kitchen window and saw a bunch of unknown objects hanging there.

After Yuan Yuanyuan finished posting the couplet, she lay down on the bed. She slept in the dark, as if she wanted to make up for the year's sleep.

It wasn't until about five o'clock in the evening that she was awakened by the chaotic sound outside. She lay on the window and saw that there was a group of little monsters chattering together downstairs, as if they were going out to play together.

Yuan Yuanyuan rubbed her eyes and lay sleepily on the window, feeling that she was about to fall apart in sleep. She looked at the group of little monsters below with a smug expression.

These little monsters are smaller than each other, and they all look cute. Yuan Yuanyuan seldom saw so many little monsters gathered together, most of them were hiding somewhere, and they seemed to be discussing where to go. don't know why the Chinese New Year is so exciting, but Yuan Yuanyuan is quite different compared to them.

Yuan Yuanyuan scratched her head and looked at the dark sky. Today is a cloudy day, one could freeze to death at a glance. There was not a single living person on the street, but there were a lot of monsters on the street. From the first New Year after she became a half-demon, she realized that the monsters didn't seem to have the awareness to stay at home for many New Years.

A monster that Yuan Yuanyuan knew passed by her window. He turned around and saw Yuan Yuanyuan lying on the window. He greeted her, "Hey? You haven't gone out yet. What are you doing at home?"

"I... I'm fine, I might go out and take a look later." Yuan Yuanyuan said.

This monster is not too familiar with Yuan Yuanyuan, so he said hello and left. Yuan Yuanyuan didn't usually say a few words to him. It would be quite unaccustomed to see him suddenly talking to him. It was probably someone else. I think it's a bit strange for her to stay at home with a monster during the Chinese New Year.

She was afraid that there would be monsters talking to her for a while. Yuan Yuanyuan still wanted to live a human life after the new year. So she turned and drew the curtains, turned on the TV, and waited for the party while making dumplings.

It seems that the monsters are quite lively today... Would you like to go out and take a look?

When Yuan Yuanyuan was making dumplings, suddenly her phone rang. This sound was not the kind of ringtone she used to use. Her phone was the legendary dual-card dual-standby copycat phone. .

Not many people knew about that card, Yuan Yuanyuan wiped her hands, glanced at her phone, and sure enough it was sent by Tang Shi.

【Tang Shi: Boss! Happy New Year!】

Yuan Yuanyuan smiled when she saw the text message, she replied, "What are you doing?"

[Tang Shi: Looking at gifts! There are so many! They are all piled up! It's in the square in front of my house! 】

Yuan Yuanyuan asked, [You went out too? Was it fun?]

[Tang Poetry: It’s fun, my dad and I are strolling in the square. Usually there are many worshippers here. Some big monsters can’t meet, and the little monsters like to write their names and pile them up here. The square here is full of . 】

【Just the square in front of us?】

[Tang Shi: Yes, that's it. 】

Yuan Yuanyuan thought aloud, but really didn't see it, the small square in front of them actually had such a powerful function. It usually looks quite old.

She looked at the MMS sent to her by Tang Shi. There were "hills" piled up one after another on the square, and little monsters were everywhere. If she hadn't confirmed that it was the New Year today, it would have looked like visiting the Lantern Festival during the Lantern Festival.

Yuan Yuanyuan shook her head and threw her phone away. She could understand why these little monsters were going, and they probably all went to get together.

When the show was on, Yuan Yuanyuan went to cook dumplings. According to her family's custom, she does not put money in the dumplings, but puts sugar. She only packs ten dumplings. There is a dumpling with a lump of sugar in it.

Brushing and brushing, she suddenly lay on the bed, feeling that something was wrong.

This kind of feeling is very fascinated, but she can't tell exactly where she is fascinated. Seriously, it's like she felt like she forgot what she was doing when she went out.

In this case, Yuan Yuanyuan forgot to bring his keys or wallet.

What did I forget... Yuan Yuanyuan didn't think about it after thinking about it for a long time, she didn't take it too seriously, she turned around and forgot.

Even today is the Chinese New Year, the cartoonists have not forgotten to update, but except for a few naked updates, it is estimated that these are all drawn in advance.

Yuan Yuanyuan turned on all the lights in the house at about eleven o'clock. The lights were turned on in the new year, and all the monsters and monsters were afraid of light, so they didn't dare to come in. Although it always feels weird to say this, Yuan Yuanyuan still turned on the light according to her childhood habit.

She looked at her phone. For the past two hours, she had been chatting with Jixiangyu and the others, and Jixiangyu was telling them the scene of their family's New Year's Day this year.

[Group owner: There are still quite a lot of people this year, but not as many as last year. We had something wrong at the end of this year. We had a fight with the Taoists and killed a lot of monsters. 】

【Black and Red: Didn’t you follow along to fight?】

[Group owner: Why am I going to fight, I guess I have to kneel when I go up. 】

Yuan Yuanyuan and Heihong scolded the fat cat for a long time. They knew that this guy was in the group, but he personally said that he wanted to go to Africa alone to escape. The fat cat was not angry, and told them generously that Yuan Yuanyuan was not. Knowing whether the disciples of the big family are all his virtue, but she knows that if it is the case, then it is estimated that the big family will die.

[Group owner: Our family still has to pay the little monsters back... I think they called a few people out. I guess it's the same as last year, and they are helping to see a doctor again. 】

[Black and Red: We have a family that gives gold every year...but it's a little bit less. If you go late, you won't be able to grab it. What's going on in your aristocratic family? If you give it, you can go and have a look. 】

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the conversation on the phone, and suddenly felt that she had missed a hundred million.

These aristocratic families are like feudal landlords, and there are still some things scattered during the New Year... Although it sounds like those "porridge" in TV dramas, Yuan Yuanyuan still wants to be dazzled.

[Quanquan: Are you all so rich?!!! In other words, will there be a book of witchcraft from an aristocratic family?!!]

[Group owner:...Nani?]

Once he did this, Yuan Yuanyuan knew that he might have asked the wrong question. It is estimated that the Chinese New Year is usually given something related to money, and things related to knowledge such as magic books are still quite few.

She stuck out her tongue, didn't speak anymore, lay down and pretended to be dead, pretending not to see the fat cat and all kinds of black and red things she didn't have common sense.

Yuan Yuanyuan was lying on her stomach looking at her phone, flipping it over and over, and suddenly remembered something.

In other words... She herself is considered an aristocratic family, although she is the only one in this family.

Hmm... Yuan Yuanyuan struggled for three seconds, it seems... She doesn't need to give others anything, right? After all, she doesn't have anything herself.

Heh... So giving and receiving gifts is really a science... Whether it's human society or monster society, it's going to be troublesome, and don't understand it at all.

When Yuan Yuanyuan was struggling with the gift-giving and receiving alone, the fat cat and the black and red over there finally changed the subject, because the fat cat suddenly said something, "Tonight's Yaoji may be interesting. , I think he might draw something unexpected...I don't know if that's what I thought. 】

【Black Red: Something unexpected?】

[Group owner: Yes, the sixth day of the lunar new year... I think I might be able to draw, but I don't know what it will look like. 】

[Black and Red: You said that... You may be able to draw, but you may not be able to draw now, is it a bit provocative to draw now?]

[Circle: ... What? What? What are you talking about that I don't understand?]

[Group owner: We are talking about the first Hundred Ghosts Night Walk organized by the Blood Jade Demon Army. 】

[Black and Red: If he wants to paint, he probably won’t be able to get around this. Isn’t it just in time for this time? I think he might be able to paint, but isn’t painting very good these days?]

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the two of them and said things that she didn't understand at all. They often did this, and they threw Yuan Yuanyuan away while chatting, and Yuan Yuanyuan could explain it to her by making a joke.

But on the sixth day of the new year... Is the Blood Jade Demon Army's first Hundred Ghosts Night Walk? Will they also be Hundred Ghosts Night Walk?

Yuan Yuanyuan has never quite understood the principle of this Hundred Ghosts Night Walk. When she first became a half-demon, she thought that some very powerful monsters could do it, but gradually, she knew more about the demon world. After a while, realized that not everyone can be this big monster.

She once thought that this must be led by a big monster, but for an army... is it possible to use the word "Hundred Ghosts at Night"? It's quite novel.

At this time, Yuan Yuanyuan will realize that she is a little white in the demon world. She sighs. Since the fat cat has predicted so, she decides to watch "Yao Ji" tonight in the state of watching Conan.

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, when the bell on the TV rang, Yuan Yuanyuan opened the comic and looked at the plot above.

As soon as she opened it, Yuan Yuanyuan stared at the cover for a few seconds. Today's cover... is extraordinarily different.

It's almost time for New Year's Eve.

There are a bunch of messy monsters put together on the painting, and they are basically Q-versions. They look very festive. Yuan Yuanyuan thinks that this may be the cutest painting Jiqiu has painted so far.

I guess this is also for the holiday spirit.

Because of this "New Year's picture", Yuan Yuanyuan's nervous mood suddenly relaxed, she still wanted to laugh, but she didn't expect Jiqiu to be a little cute at this time.

With this kind of mood, Yuan Yuanyuan opened the comic, and the moment she opened it, her smile suddenly froze on her face.

There is a person in the painting, this person is standing at the door, quietly sticking to the couplet.

The couplet he posted, the words on it looked inexplicably familiar, although the texture was completely different... but the content was the same. All of them are "Happy festive season, welcome the new year with lanterns and colorful lights", and criticize "family joy"...

...

Yuan Yuanyuan wanted to buckle up the comics in an instant, but she forcibly restrained her irritable heart and calmed herself down.

Calm down, calm down, what am I doing today?

Post couplets, make dumplings, eat dumplings, look at mobile phones...

What to draw!

Suddenly, a huge fireworks exploded into the sky outside, just in front of the original round window. don't know which one was dead, and set off a fireworks in the urban area.

Yuan Yuanyuan turned her phone over, looked at the picture on the comic, her eyes turned into dead fish eyes.

The fireworks outside the window seemed to be celebrating.

The street was brightly lit, and a few houses across the street were lit with small lanterns.

It seems that there is only one color of red left in the world. This color is very festive. Since a long time ago, people have used this color to celebrate the New Year.

...

Ah, happy new year.
