Chapter 120

Spring Festival.

Yuan Yuanyuan didn't meet a single person on the way from home to the tavern. She originally thought that she might happen to see one or two of them wandering on the street, but she didn't expect to see even a dog.

Later, when she thought about it, it was true that she had never walked back and forth on the streets during the Chinese New Year, so she naturally didn't know that the streets during the Chinese New Year were like this.

Yuan Yuanyuan used a chessboard trick when she walked to the front of her small yard. She wanted to see if there were any monsters hiding around, but she didn't hear any heartbeats around, instead she heard a lot of clutter in the street behind.

She looked over there and saw that there was a sky-high light, but the color of this light was not red, but a mixture of gold and purple, which looked a little grand.

The light was blocked a lot by the building in front of her, but it still passed through vaguely, forming a vague outline in front of her.

Yuan Yuanyuan squinted her eyes and looked over there, which was the direction of the square. She saw the scene over there on her mobile phone, but she didn't expect Yuan Yuan to come over to see it with her own eyes, and it turned out to be like this.

Red is accompanied by gold and purple, and the mixture is extremely dazzling, as if to illuminate this piece of sky. Yuan Yuanyuan didn't know why, but inexplicably remembered the auspicious golden light behind the Buddha every time he appeared in the old version of Journey to the West...

She shook her head. The monster didn't seem to believe in Buddhism, so she lowered her head and opened the door with the key. As soon as the door was pushed, she looked towards the yard and was suddenly stunned.

There was actually a person in the yard... just sitting under the tree created by the illusion, looking sleepy.

Yuan Yuanyuan's eyes widened, Liu An squatted under the tree at some point, but she thought about it, why didn't she feel someone in the room outside?

She pondered for a while, then took another step forward, and a heartbeat sounded in her ears.

Yuan Yuanyuan felt the faint smell in the air, and frowned, she sniffed carefully, only then did she find the tricky.

Some people here have used illusion... and this illusion is very familiar.

Familiar with this illusion... either Yuan Yuanyuan used it herself, or Yuan Yuanyuan taught it.

Yuan Yuanyuan knew something, she walked over and patted Liu An on the shoulder, "Don't sleep here, you'll catch a cold later."

Liu An under the tree snorted and opened his eyes in a daze. Yuan Yuanyuan pondered the principle of the illusion around him. This should have been figured out by Liu An himself, and used the illusion to hide his heartbeat and breathing. , it's really powerful, if Yuan Yuanyuan didn't know the principle of this thing, she wouldn't understand it.

As soon as Liu An opened his eyes, he saw Yuan Yuanyuan squatting in front of him, he sat up in a jiffy, and said, "Boss."

"Why are you staying here?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.

"That... the friend who lived with me went out today, and I felt quite bored, so I came back with my bag." Liu An said.

That's right... Liu An's friend is a monster. He must have gone outside today, so he probably won't be able to accompany Liu An.

"Then won't you go with him?" Yuan Yuanyuan took out the key to open the door of the small building, and asked as she opened it.

"I... I don't like going out during the New Year." Liu An said.

"Pfft, what kind of weird habit you have, it's just like a person." Yuan Yuanyuan was inexplicably happy when she heard this. She didn't know why she was so happy. She probably saw so many monsters who insisted on going out during the New Year. After suddenly bumping into a monster who doesn't go out like a human, she actually felt quite friendly.

After hearing this, Liu An touched the back of his head, smiled awkwardly, and followed her into the room.

The house has not been cleaned up since the day when someone broke into it. It looks empty. The broken chairs and tables have been thrown out. Several layers of newspapers have been pasted on the windows, which looks miserable.

Yuan Yuanyuan pushed the door open and came in, not used to seeing such an empty room. She pulled over the only surviving chair on the first floor and sat down, asking Liu An, "Have you eaten yet?"

"I have eaten." Liu An said.

Yuan Yuanyuan was sitting on the chair with her head down, looking for something to sit on from a box, and finally pulled out a big blanket. This thing was originally used by her to make clothes, so I won't say much about how to get it. , After listening to Liu An's words, she always felt that it didn't sound like the truth.

Not to mention, as soon as she pushed open the door and came in, she saw him squatting and sleeping under the tree with his arms on his back. He looked pitiful, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart, and she didn't feel like he had already eaten. the same.

"Have you eaten it for real or faked it? I remember something in the kitchen. Would you like something to eat?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.

"I..." Liu An said hesitantly.

"Would you like to eat some more? I didn't eat much today. Would you like to make one for me?" Yuan Yuanyuan said.

Liu An thought about it, got up and walked into the kitchen. Yuan Yuanyuan turned her head to look at his back. After the window was broken that day, she told Liu An that it would be best not to come back recently, for fear of accidents. When he was caught sitting under a tree, it seemed that he had come back secretly behind her back many times.

She sat quietly on the chair for a while, watching the orange candle light in the kitchen sitting for a long time, suddenly thought of something, and quickly ran upstairs in three steps.

It was quiet in the room, and there was no sound in the lobby.

About an hour later, when Liu An came out of the kitchen carrying two bowls, he suddenly heard the sound of "ding bell clack" coming from upstairs. When he looked up, he saw the boss dragging a large box and dragging it down from the second floor .

"Boss, what are you doing?" Liu An asked strangely, holding the bowl.

"Ah? I... I'll take this thing down and deal with it." Yuan Yuanyuan carried the box and stopped walking towards the next step of the building.

"Boss, wait a minute, I'll help you move it." Liu An quickly put down the bowl in his hand to help Yuan Yuanyuan, but she refused.

The box that Yuan Yuanyuan carried was the one that someone else gave as a gift at that time. She carefully counted the contents of the box upstairs for an hour, carefully recorded it, and took pictures with her mobile phone.

Now she's thinking about putting the box in a hidden place... The box was on the second floor that day, and she didn't have time to take it with her when she ran down. She didn't expect it to survive the accident, and she didn't move it when she packed it later. But Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly remembered that if something happened again, she probably wouldn't be so lucky, so she was going to bury it in the yard.

There are indeed a lot of things inside this thing... But how can put it, this thing was not given to Yuan Yuanyuan by others, even if Yuan Yuanyuan was greedy, he didn't want to move. Besides, things on 17 were a mess, she didn't know all kinds of things now, and she used this thing recklessly, and she was still afraid of what would happen.

Although she was really jealous, she dreamed about things related to this box twice in her dreams, and recently... Yuan Yuanyuan seldom had dreams related to money. Every time she woke up, Yuan Yuanyuan sat on the bed for a long time. , covered his face and wondered if Lao Tzu was already so thirsty.

Yuan Yuanyuan went out the door, and walked back after a while. When she came back, she found that Liu An had already sat on the table with two sets of tableware, as well as soy sauce and vinegar.

"This is..." Yuan Yuanyuan walked over to take a look, "Dumplings?"

"Yes, boss, are you jealous?" Liu An asked.

"...Eat, you are very fast, you can wrap two curtains in one hour? What kind of stuffed dumplings are these?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked curiously, looking at the dumplings.

"Potatoes and green onions."

... Yuan Yuanyuan shuddered violently.

"Well, there's nothing else in the kitchen, just four sprout potatoes, a bundle of green onions, and some flour." Liu An said.

"Then you... can't you eat a bowl of noodles?" Yuan Yuanyuan's expression was inexplicably painful, "Where did you read this mess? People eat dumplings during Chinese New Year, but they are all stuffed with leeks and eggs. This stuffing, so you don't see those messy things in the future. If you are really interested, just ask me, especially the monsters outside don't know as much as I do."

The two of them sat down to eat dumplings, Yuan Yuanyuan didn't have anything to say after eating them, anyway, dumplings... She can accept any filling.

While eating dumplings, Liu An suddenly asked her what customs are there for human beings to celebrate the New Year. Yuan Yuanyuan casually told him some customs. In fact, some of the customs she mentioned are gone now. Playing on the mobile phone, with the background sound of the Spring Festival Gala in front of me... But Yuan Yuanyuan still didn't want a monster to know that humans are such rotten creatures.

Obviously, the sense of racial pride is not strong, but don't know why it suddenly appeared at this time...

So what she said were all things that sounded beautiful, such as putting off fireworks until the early hours of the morning, children going to ask for New Year's money, adults sitting together and playing mahjong... Liu An just listened quietly, he listened. After finishing, he said, "I didn't expect you, boss, to be quite familiar with the human world."

Yuan Yuanyuan felt a little guilty when she heard what he said. She felt like she said too much, mainly because she didn't expect a monster to be interested in these things, so she said more when she was excited.

She was afraid of what Liu An was thinking. After all, she had a ghost in her own heart, so she casually added that she had lived with humans for a while before, and changed the topic.

"That long-lived monster...isn't every one of them has a colorful life?" Liu An said, "It has lived longer than humans and has experienced more things than humans. If you have nothing to do, you can go to the human world for a private visit. It's a lot of fun to know a little bit about everything."

Yuan Yuanyuan was drinking dumpling soup at the time. After hearing this, she pondered for a while with the bowl in her hands, and said, "It's not all like this."

"Not at all?"

"To be precise...Most of the monsters and humans are not very familiar with them. At best, they are only familiar with a few Taoist priests." Yuan Yuanyuan said, "The monsters...most of the time they are not very birds of humans."

"Then boss, you..."

"Don't take me as an example, I'm not normal." Yuan Yuanyuan waved her hand a little embarrassedly. Just as she was waving her hand, a huge firework suddenly shot into the sky and exploded behind her.

Yuan Yuanyuan and Liu An both looked out the window at the same time, where a huge cornflower-like monster exploded in the sky, occupying a whole sky.

The fireworks were so big that Yuan Yuanyuan had to go to the window to see them. She had never seen such a big fireworks before, and she didn't know who set them off.

In fact, at this time, should say who is so bold and dare to set off fireworks on the street, but Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly forgot about this, mainly because she seldom saw such blue and purple fireworks, she suddenly didn't remember this one.

"What's this...?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.

"This belongs to the Zhuo family." Liu An said.

"...What, what, what?" Yuan Yuanyuan turned her head and asked.

"The fireworks of the Zhuo family, their Hundred Ghosts Night Walk is going to convene people." Liu An said, "Would you like to go out and have a look?"

"..." Yuan Yuanyuan had not waited to ask who this Zhuo family was, and why you, who had only been here for a few months, knew better than me, who had been here for almost two years, when a car suddenly appeared in the sky. The floating float is so huge that it looks like a small moving house.

The moon is behind it, and there is a small silver light edge left vaguely. Pulling this car are four half-human, half-horse monsters. They have a snow-white horse body, and the upper body is a The human body is dressed in lavender ancient clothes, and the jewelry on his body glitters under the moon.

The car is made of wood, the windows are carved with patterns, there are gauze curtains, and the four corners of the car are hung with jade tassels.

The car flew from one end of the moon to the other, and countless purple petals fell from the sky, and soon the ground was full. Many fell into the courtyard with crystal dew on them.

Yuan Yuanyuan watched the carriage that appeared in a dream flash across the sky, just like the car of a fairy in mythology. When this antique car flew over the city with countless neon lights, it even had a kind of dream. illusion.

The car flew away from the top of their heads and flew to another place. Yuan Yuanyuan pulled her neck and looked up, and vaguely saw a figure in the car.

He was a very upright young man with a hair crown on his head. He passed by in a flash in front of her, leaving only a silhouette in his memory.

Countless red and black lights soared into the sky, gathered from all directions toward the sky, and after a while, it became obscuring the sky.

This thick black and red light was behind the purple car, like a billowing smoke, and disappeared into the sky with it.
