    Ji Qingzhuo saw Candle Moth's bun suddenly reflecting light, and countless compound eyes stared at her, making her eyes slam into her eyes.

    She was stunned, and Candle Moth's fake beautiful eyes blinked at her: "I was afraid of scaring people, so I made a pair of eyes, how about it, fake eyes look good?"

    Ji Qingzhuo looked away and landed on Candle Moth's beautiful eyes. This time, she finally no longer felt that she was being watched.

    "Little dumb, are you very guilty, why don't you dare to look at me?" Candle Moth covered her lips and smiled again.

    Shen Rongyu raised her eyes and glanced at her, Candle Moth's laughter stopped immediately, she carefully observed Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu: "The people who came back this time are much better looking than the last time."

    She licked her fingertips, unfolded her sleeves, and flew off the beam, and the grey sleeves that were unfolded were also painted in the shape of eyes.

    Ji Qingzhuo lowered her head and rubbed her eyes. The candle moth made her feel very uncomfortable. The demons didn't feel positive. This candle moth was especially scary.

    Shen Rongyu's eyes fell on Candle Moth's hand clinging to the beam of the house, and there were several cuts on the jagged wrist exposed from the sleeve.

    Candle moths are one of the most evil and greedy races among demons. What they want to take away is not human life, but human souls—totally take them away, so that humans are willing to offer them.

    Seemingly noticing Shen Rongyu's gaze, Candle Moth's sleeves drooped down to block his scars. The two tentacles hanging down on her forehead have fluffy broom-like filaments, like reed flowers by the lake. At this moment, the tentacles quivered, and the round bun on the top of her head also spun a little.

    She is observing Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu, she is more interested in Ji Qingzhuo, because Ji Qingzhuo is too quiet and looks very scary. However, when she looked closely at Shen Rongyu's facial features, the round bun flashed again, and she blinked.

    "You are very familiar." The candle moth approached Shen Rongyu, the scale powder on her sleeves scattered, and Ji Qingzhuo sneezed silently.

    At this moment, Shen Rongyu's hidden murderous intention suddenly appeared. In the dark place of the hall, behind the light and shadow of countless curtains, there was a faint blood spring climbing on the wall, taking Candle Moth as his target.

    Ji Qingzhuo seemed to feel the change in Shen Rongyu's breath around her - this was the first time she heard from a stranger that Shen Rongyu was familiar, and he cut off his connection with this world. Maybe, even if someone knew who he was, Didn't even recognize him.

    She tugged on Shen Rongyu's sleeve, Shen Rongyu narrowed her eyes, her expression as usual.

    "It's a really beautiful face, like a painting." Candle Moth smiled at Shen Rongyu.

    Shen Rongyu spoke expressionlessly, forcibly changing the subject: "What do you want to tell the Lantern Festival?"

    "What do I have to order?" Candle Moth approached Ji Qingzhuo again, and she was almost face to face with hers.

    Ji Qingzhuo could feel the tentacles on Candle Moth's forehead touching her cheek, and the scales and powder flew around. She felt itchy nose again and wanted to sneeze.

    Shen Rongyu held her wrist and dragged her behind him. The candle moth was very fast, her sleeves were folded, and she flew in front of Ji Qingzhuo again.

    "Although the girl who came last year can talk, she is very afraid of me." Candle Moth pursed her lips and smiled, her smile was shy, and she inadvertently revealed a tubular mouthpart from the small mouth of the cherry she was sipping.

    Ji Qingzhuo looked at the tube-shaped mouthparts under her red lips, and her thoughts began to wander again. This demon is very like a moth.

    At night, these creatures that follow the light will smash into the burning candles in the room, and they will rush to them without hesitation until they burn their bodies.

    Where did this demon come from?

    "Thinking about what I am?" Candle Moth smiled at her again, with a sweet smile.

    She danced her sleeves: "I am a demon, a man-eater."

    Of course Ji Qingzhuo knew that she was a demon. She folded her hands together and made the appearance of flying butterflies, as if asking her.

    "It's a moth." Candle Moth walked into the hall, and suddenly the flames on her hanging gray sleeves burned like a candle.

    "I don't like fire." Candlemoth said his appeal, "I don't want to see fire in the lantern at the lantern festival."

    This is a very tricky order, Candle Moth sees her silly appearance and is easy to bully, so she makes things difficult for her.

    She is a demon and has no empathy for humans.

    Ji Qingzhuo nodded, and Candle Moth smiled again: "You also agree to this request?"

    Although don't know what to do for the time being, this doesn't affect Ji Qingzhuo's first answer to Candle Moth's request.

    "Why did the Ministry of Internal Affairs send such a silly girl this year?" Candle Moth touched his tentacles with his hands and said with a smile.

    "So, is there any other order?" Shen Rongyu really didn't want Ji Qingzhuo to stay here, this candle moth was too evil.

    And... he is not sure whether Candle Moth has made a deal with the humans here. If not, it will be difficult for her to find Ji Qingzhuo.

    The next moment, Candle Moth tilted his head and said, "Oh, if I hadn't already made a deal with your emperor of Liang Kingdom, I would definitely come to find you, your soul, isn't it delicious?"

    Ji Qingzhuo knew that the candle moth was asking herself, so she shook her head quickly, she thought she was a boring person, and her soul must be tasteless and not tasty at all.

    "Go on, if you have anything, come to Candle Palace and ask me." Candle Moth waved at her.

    This is almost the best attitude she has ever faced with the mortals in the palace. Ji Qingzhuo is very quiet, and she will not show the ugly appearance of fear. She is not upset when she sees it.

    Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu left, and after they were far away from the Candle Palace, Ji Qingzhuo dared to speak: "Xiaoyu, she is so scary."

    Her reflex arc was so—so long that she was only now starting to feel scared.

    "She is a very rare type of demons, called candle moths." Shen Rongyu said, "Candle, burns herself, contributes energy, moths, follow the light to fight fire at night, without turning back, until she dies, she is the same. "

    "The candle moth has made a deal with the human being, and she will get what he wants for the human being. Similarly, in exchange, after the wish is fulfilled, the candle moth will absorb the human soul - other demons take the human soul, most of which are forcibly swallowed, The candle moth absorbs the soul that humans are willing to offer after the transaction, and the energy obtained will be greatly increased." Shen Rongyu introduced the characteristics of the candle moth, "The candle moth burns its own vitality to fulfill their wishes for human beings, and when the vitality is burned out After the end, she will turn into a cocoon, devour the human being, absorb the human soul energy from the cocoon, and break out of the cocoon again to gain a new life."

    "The emperor of the world, there are always people who think that they can control the candle moths and exchange with them, in the hope of gaining more wealth and power." Shen Rongyu's eyes turned to the distance.

    "So..." Ji Qingzhuo understood Shen Rongyu's introduction, she thought, this candle moth is a bit strange.

    "The candle moths will cut their wrists and bleed their blood every month, injecting their own vitality into the contract formation. Their blood can affect the luck and make the people who trade with her come true." Shen Rongyu remembered the candle moth's wrist. scars.

    Those scars were clumsy, not neat at all.

    Moreover, this candle moth is not weak, it doesn't look like she has burned a lot of vitality - she still has time to tease Ji Qingzhuo.

    Shen Rongyu didn't understand, is Ji Qingzhuo so funny? Why does everyone want to poke her twice to see how she reacts.

    He called, "Zuo Zhuo."

    "Huh?" Ji Qingzhuo responded, she raised her head to look at him, she looked at the tips of his ears.

    "Zuo Zhuo doesn't look at me." Shen Rongyu's voice was confusing.

    He pointed to where Ji Qingzhuo's eyes fell - the tip of his ear: "This is my eye."

    Shen Rongyu made a joke, Ji Qingzhuo looked away immediately, she thought, how could Shen Rongyu use this thing to tease her.

    She always liked to avoid the eyes of others, but she didn't expect to be deflated by Candle Moth and looked at her directly.

    "Because you are afraid of people and don't want to look at people, that candle moth is not a person." Shen Rongyu said.

    "But she's just like everyone else, she's good-looking and can talk." Ji Qingzhuo replied.

    ——Like people, they are usually the source of trouble.

    "To cross the candle moth, brute force is not enough. If she has already burned her life, she can directly subdue her, but she is still very strong." Shen Rongyu asked Ji Qingzhuo, "Zuozhuo, can you do it alone? ?"

    Ji Qingzhuo has no plans yet, but crossing the candle moth is her goal, so she nodded.

    She seemed to remember something: "The lantern festival, we can't use fire, and we have to light up the lanterns. I think of a place."

    "What?" Shen Rongyu asked her.

    ——He doesn't have the habit of watching the scenery on the road, but Ji Qingzhuo has.

    "On the banks of the river outside the Snow Capital, there are some small spirit beasts called 'Firefly Wings' that are similar to fireflies, but much brighter than fireflies, and they also glow in winter." Ji Qingzhuo said softly, "They finish glowing. , dying soon, let's go and bring some back."

    Ji Qingzhuo knew about the existence of Ying Wing, or from the elder Qu Ting, who said that Ying Wing only appeared in the north.

    Shen Rongyu was not very interested in this kind of gadgets, and his attention was on another place. He searched for a topic to talk to Ji Qingzhuo: "So, why are you dying soon after the light is finished?"

    Ji Qingzhuo blushed: "Xiaoyu doesn't know?"

    Shen Rongyu really didn't know that in the spirit beast class, he only had to deal with the annual test, and he was too lazy to understand the rest of the knowledge.

    "Xiaoyu, you are the first in the Spirit Beasts class." Ji Qingzhuo felt that Shen Rongyu's number one was worth it.

    "Yingying asks for a mate, and naturally it will shine. After the courtship, mating and laying eggs will naturally die soon." Ji Qingzhuo said softly.

    Shen Rongyu coughed lightly, he knew why Ji Qingzhuo was blushing, she was always so shy.

    But he still wanted to tease her: "Why is Zhuo Zhuo blushing again?"

    "I—" Ji Qingzhuo, from the word "courtship", is always easily associated with the red airflow in the practice space. There is no logic, it is just an unprovoked association, and it is this "unprovoked" that makes her even more shy.

    She... what is she thinking about, it's not a double cultivation, it's too much red air.

    Ji Qingzhuo fell into his own random thoughts, and his face became even redder. The key question of Shen Rongyu was innocent and innocent, as if he didn't know anything.

    She lifted the hood of her cape and tried to wrap her entire head, the shaggy fuzz around her cheeks.

    But she was in a panic, and one ear was exposed. Shen Rongyu looked at the tip of her red ear and couldn't help raising her hand to touch it.

    It was cold, so he put his palm down and covered her ears with his whole hand.

    "Zuo Zhuo, I can't shine, why am I being shy?" Shen Rongyu leaned over and asked her.

    His big palm covered her ears, so his already deep voice sounded more magnetic. Ji Qingzhuo buried his face in the furry hood and shook his head, not knowing what he was denying.

    But...that's... her chaotic thoughts finally turned into a sentence.

    She still really wanted to see Shen Rongyu glowing, was her head lit, or her feet lit?

    Of course, when practicing at night, Shen Rongyu's red air flow told her the answer.

    In the past few days, the fish and birds in the sea of ​​​​blood have become tired of performing red airflow. Now that he has new material, he naturally wants to show it to Ji Qingzhuo.

    Ji Qingzhuo was still being kissed by him, the hand of the red air gently stroked the side of her ear, and then he lowered his head and bit the tip of her ear.

    It was numb and itchy, not uncomfortable, but strange, Ji Qingzhuo raised his hand and scratched the red airflow.

    The red airflow whispered in her ear: "Zuo Zhuo."

    "Huh?" Ji Qingzhuo, who was dizzy and blurred by his kiss, turned her head to the side, her eyes filled with water.

    The red airflow probed in front of her, and then a red light suddenly lit up at the end, shaking it towards her.

    The author says:

    Zhuo Zhuo: Xiaoyu, can you perform that one again?

    Xiaoyu: ?

    Xiaoyu: I will not shine.
