demon rampage

It rained heavily overnight, and it gradually thinned out the next morning, leaving only thin strands.

The wit is very obedient, and has been silent all the time. Wherever I go, he follows me. Even the waiter in the shop praised the dog for his spirituality.

I sat on the stool downstairs and ate breakfast. While eating, I broke the steamed buns into small pieces and fed them to the gifted scholar.

"I heard that the heavy rain last night washed away the Longshui Temple."

There were not many customers at this time, and the waiter and the boss were chatting in front of the counter.

"Really? It's broken. Anyway, there are not many people going to pay homage to that dilapidated place, and keeping it still takes up space. Now it's time to rebuild one."

The boss's fingers kept turning the abacus, and he seemed to be always turning the abacus.

I was eating quietly, listening to them talking, and suddenly remembered that little beggar, if the Longshui Temple collapsed, where would he live in the future?But this is not something I should worry about. Where does he like to live.

In the morning, the sun came out, and I took the green umbrella to the place where the carriage was rented, and returned the umbrella to the proprietress.

"Little brother, what a coincidence. A section of the mountain road to Qixian County is blocked by rocks on the mountain. It is estimated that it will take three days to open. It is to blame. It is the inexplicable heavy rain. Please forgive me, little brother."

As the proprietress took the green umbrella, she complained that the heavy rain had ruined her fortune.

"It's okay, I can wait any longer."

After leaving the rental office, I thought about looking around, but there was nothing to do now anyway.

There are still puddles left by yesterday's heavy rain on the road. Some naughty children are jumping in the puddle with bare feet. The adults let them out with a straight face, but they dare not get too close to the puddle for fear of sewage. Splash on yourself.

Suddenly a child ran straight from the front, very fast, as if some beast was chasing him.

I took a closer look, isn't this the little beggar?Could it be that he ran away in such a panic because he was discovered stealing something?

The little beggar also saw me, as if seeing a savior, he rushed over and hugged my waist, hiding behind me.

This stinky brat gave him buns yesterday and threw them on the ground for me, but today he is doing well, if he gets into trouble, he will know to hide behind me.

I raised my head and found that the one chasing the little beggar was actually a... little kid in red!

This little brat looks quite unique. There are three ink-colored ghostly symbols drawn on his left face, his mouth is blood red, and his pupils are standing upright, like a snake. After repeated confirmation, I bet , this thing is definitely not human!

"What are you provoking, why do you look so strange?"

I was a little apprehensive, so I hurriedly asked the little beggar.

"I do not know either."

Finally, I heard the little beggar say a word, although the occasion was a bit inappropriate.

The strange kid also stopped, walked towards us step by step, and finally stood one meter away from me.

"Can you see me?"

He looked at me and said, when he spoke, he showed his sharp teeth, which was different from normal people.

"Of course I can."

The question is inexplicable, and I am not blind, how could I not see such a big living person.

He tilted his head and walked towards me step by step.

Although his appearance is weird, I don't think he looks terrible. Overall, he still looks like a human being. Maybe it's just makeup, so I just stood there and saw what he was going to do. .

He came up to me and raised a hand.

I don't know what he is going to do, I thought he was trying to juggle, but he just raised his right hand so simply, there has been no movement for a long time, so, is this a failure of the show?

We both stared at each other, and the little beggar had already gone to nowhere.

It suddenly occurred to me that the little beggar probably stole something from him, that's why he was chasing him.

So I asked him, "Did that kid steal something from you just now?"

He tilted his head and said, "No."

"Then why are you chasing him?"

"He can see me and I want to be friends with him, but he runs away when he sees me."

It turned out to be the case, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Maybe he'd want to be your friend if you didn't put on such horrible makeup."

The child withdrew his right hand, suddenly grabbed my sleeve and looked left and right: "I look like this, without makeup."

"Then you look really special." I tried my best to free my sleeve from the child's hand, "Since that's the case, then go find your friends. I have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

After I finished speaking, I turned around and walked directly to the inn. There was nothing to see in Tiger Village, except that there were more trees and water, which was nothing compared to the prosperity of Jinling City.

I thought the kid would leave obediently, but I didn't expect him to follow me all the time, he stopped when I stopped, and he walked when I walked. When I was almost at the door of the inn, I finally couldn't help it, turned around and stared at him.

"Why are you following me?"

He wasn't embarrassed at all, on the contrary, he was calmer than me.

"I want to make friends with you."

He raised his head, grinned and said, coupled with the ghost painting talisman and vertical pupils on his face, it was inexplicably scary.

"I'm so old, how can I be friends with you, you should go find that kid, you are the same age, you should get along better."

I waved my hand at him and said a big joke, we are almost ten years apart in age, I'm almost his father, what kind of friend we are.

"He is afraid of me, but you are not, so I want to be friends with you."

As soon as the kid heard my words, he immediately frowned, took a big step forward, and wanted to grab my sleeve again, but fortunately, I was nimble and didn't let him succeed.

"I don't have time to play with you, you'd better go home quickly."

I pressed his shoulders, turned him around and patted his butt to let him go. I'm not in the mood to coax the child here. It's not easy not to get angry now.

But this guy is like a follower, as long as he sticks to you, he will never let go. As soon as I turned around, he hugged my thigh fiercely, and he couldn't shake it off.

"What on earth do you want? I can be your father now, it's impossible to be your friend."

I am a little angry, the most annoying thing is these unlucky children, that guy Wu Jian is naughty enough, I have never pampered him, let alone a strange child, so I mercilessly took his hand from my thigh I opened it up, the kid is quite strong, and it took me a lot of effort to successfully pull away those claws. In order not to let him take the opportunity to hug my thigh again, I grabbed his hand and didn't let go, saving a lot of time. It will take another half day.

"Why?" he asked aggrievedly.

I was a little angry at first, but when I saw his teary face, my heart skipped a beat, as if I was eating a weight. Really, I am a 16-year-old adult, how can I still care about like a child.

So I let go of the kid's hand, closed my eyes, rearranged my facial expressions, took three deep breaths, and opened my eyes again. I was really refreshed and not so irritable anymore.

"Listen to me, first of all, our age difference is too big, you should find someone your age to play with, and second, I'm not from here, I'll leave in three days, and you still have family here, don't you Maybe abandon them for me? So we are not suitable to be friends, understand?"

I explained it to him painstakingly, but I don't know if this kid can understand it.

"I have no family, so I can leave with you. As for the age issue, do you mean that I can be friends with you?"

I saw that he did not know what kind of magic he used, and suddenly he turned into a young man about my size, dressed in red clothes like fire, with long hair like ink, and skin as white as snow, he was really pretty, not even the vertical pupils. It's so frightening, but the three ghost symbols on the left face are a bit out of place.

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed on the ghostly painted talisman, and before I had time to see what happened, I fainted.

When I woke up again, I found that I had returned to the inn and was lying on the bed in my room.

My head still hurt a little, I sat up, stretched out my hand and rubbed my swollen forehead, and suddenly found that the kid was also in the room, sitting on the stool, staring intently at the fruit on the table.

Seeing that I woke up, he smiled and waved to me, then pointed to the apple on the plate cautiously: "Can I have one? I haven't eaten it for a long time."

"Eat, eat as much as you want."

My mind is a little confused now, this brat still looks like a child, could it be my hallucination that he turned into a boy just now?

In less than a quarter of an hour, he ate all the fruit on the plate like a storm, and he didn't even spit out the core. How hungry is this? !

"Finish?" I got out of bed, walked up to him, and sat down on another stool.

"Yeah." He nodded, rubbing his round belly with both hands, probably supporting it, it deserves it, eating so much, it's no wonder not supporting it.

"Let's talk about it," I said.

"Okay." He nodded.

"First question, what are you? Why do you look so special?"

He raised his head and blinked his eyes, looking very innocent: "I am not a thing, I am the god of Longshui Temple, and many people used to enshrine me, but then one day, people ignored me and came here The temple scolded me, and the tribute was gone.”

After saying that, he looked a little sad.

"immortal?"

I looked him up and down. Although he looked like a monster, it was not unheard of that some gods looked really different.

"Yeah, it's a fairy." He nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of hope.

"Let's believe you, the second question, you asked me why I could see you at that time?"

"Well, because few people can see me, after the Longshui Temple was washed down yesterday, I was released from the bronze statue, but only that little beggar could see me, I finally regained my freedom, I just want to make friends with him, but he... is afraid of me, but you are not afraid of me, so I don't want to be friends with him anymore, I want to follow you! Don't drive me away, okay?"

Although this brat looks a little different, it's not ugly, especially when Shui Lingling's big eyes are staring at me pitifully, I can't say no to it, who made me a soft but not hard As for people, this little devil actually learned without a teacher, and he caught my weakness.

"Speak well, the third question, you just turned into a teenager, why did you change back now?"

This is what I'm most curious about. If I can maintain the appearance of an adult, wouldn't it be too weak to become a child, and I can't do many things.

"Because I was sealed by one person, that's it." He pointed to the three ghost symbols on his face. In fact, I wanted to say this a long time ago. Who painted this? It's so ugly, and it's still painted on the face. Come on, how much hatred is there.

"This three-star mantra has suppressed [-]% of my mana, and I can't even maintain my adult form. It lasts for a quarter of an hour at most."

"Then why are you following me? Shouldn't you find a way to find a solution? I'm just an ordinary person, what's the benefit of being with me." I didn't understand.

"That person is gone," he said.

"You don't seem to be sad at all?" And he didn't care about the fact that he was under the three-star curse.

"Of course, you can't just immerse yourself in unsolvable things, and it's fine for me to be like this."

The little ghost said with a smile, his calf was dangling, and he accidentally kicked me once, so he quickly showed a sorry expression.

I am too lazy to understand the fight between gods. As for him to follow me, let him follow. Maybe he will leave on his own when he encounters other interesting things. After all, one of us is a god and the other is a human being with different life spans. The pursuit is also different.

"Then do you have a name?" I asked, not knowing the difference between the name of a fairy and that of a mortal.

"I don't remember, I forgot a lot of things." He shook his head.

"Then I'll call you little ghost, I think it suits you quite well." I'm really not very good at naming things.

"Okay!" He nodded vigorously, as if he liked the name very much.

Seeing him so happy makes me feel embarrassed. I would have seriously thought of a more normal name if I knew about it.
