Like Lu Tong's grocery store, Niu Ji's family lived on the second floor of the storefront. For many merchants who entered the small commodity market later, the seafood barbecue couple, Niu Changsheng and his wife Jixie, Been here for many years, probably when the small commodity market was first established, they were here.

Lu Tong stood in front of the seafood barbecue restaurant and watched. The original white smoke above the roof had disappeared. In other words, the evil spirit belonging to Ji Xie had disappeared.

In the short distance that Lu Tong came here, people in the small commodity market were already discussing that Niu Changsheng and Ji Xie died strangely, and died in their sleep without any disease or disaster. Even the police had come to see them.In the seafood barbecue restaurant, a simple mourning hall was built in front of the coffin. The coffin will be sent to the crematorium for cremation the next day. Lu Tong went in and burned a stick of incense. He glanced at Niu Ji and didn't say much.

A few days later in the early morning, Lu Tong ate a bowl of wontons at the hand-pushed wonton shop next to him. On his way back to the grocery store, he passed the closed seafood barbecue shop and saw two men standing at the door, one of whom was holding a cup in his hand. On the mobile phone, compared to the sign of the barbecue restaurant, "Hey, it's here, the seafood barbecue restaurant of Internet celebrity Niu Papa and Ji Mama, I read from the official account that it opens early in the morning."

In the past few days, customers who came here often bumped into the wall in front of the closed seafood barbecue restaurant. Lu Tong didn't take it seriously at first, but he soon saw another man, a man who was not tall, and he was around 1 He was about 70 meters tall, but his aura was completely out of proportion to his height. He stood aside with sullen eyes, ignoring his companion's nagging. Lu Tong's attention fell on a belt-like rope around his waist, on which was a There is a hook, and on the hook, there are pieces of demon bones hanging in a row. After a distance, you can feel the demon power that has not been dissipated. Obviously, they all belong to the old demon.

Lu Tong walked back to the grocery store calmly. He saw the two men stay in place for a while and then left. Everyone had already reached the street outside the small commodity market. Suddenly, the short man with a strong aura A man turned his head, a pair of sharp eyes seemed to penetrate the flow of people walking back and forth in the small commodity market, and landed on the roof of the seafood barbecue restaurant.

Seeing him suddenly stop and turn around, the man walking with him said strangely, "Why did you stop, A Yuan?"

The short man raised his chin, "Look."

On the roof of the seafood barbecue restaurant, an extremely faint translucent smoke swayed and swayed, emerging from nothing, and suddenly emerged.

A smile suddenly appeared on the face of the short man who had always been unsmiling, and he said to the man beside him, "Your brain is only a glutton, and occasionally you will get it wrong and do something good."

The short man sprinted towards the seafood barbecue restaurant, and the man behind him chased after him and said, "This kind of half-demon who is so weak that I'm too embarrassed to kill him, you need to meet the fly." I'm caught..." The man couldn't finish his sentence, because in front of his eyes, the rope thrown by the short man in front of the seafood barbecue restaurant was cut off halfway by an exceptionally white hand.

The two ends of the rope were held by two hands respectively, and the huge demon-suppressing force collided with each other along the rope. Fragments of golden light escaped from the rope, and the demon bone hanging on it kept vibrating, and suddenly there was a snap, and the hook exploded. Open, fell to the ground.

The short man withdrew his hands first, rolled the rope back around his waist, stared at Lu Tong, "Diancang faction, Zhang Yuan."

Lu Tong paused for a few seconds, then took out a business card from the butt pocket of his jeans and handed it to him.Zhang Yuan took it, and saw a QR code on the cardboard with a white background. In the middle of the QR code was a very ugly monster, probably a flower demon, because there was a small white flower with a yellow stamen on its head. , below is a line of words, "Liutong's Monster Catching Shop, scan it and follow me."

Zhang Yuan had a very rare expression of bewilderment, "What?"

"Business card." Lu Tong said, "It hasn't been printed for long, and I just got it."

Zhang Yuan didn't entangle with him any more about self-reporting his family, and a slightly cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Do you want to protect that half-demon inside?"

Lu Tong raised his chin slightly, and his smile was even wider than his. "You want to kill? Then continue to fight."

Zhang Yuan looked around, "It's not convenient here." He flicked his business card with one hand, "I'll look for you again." The man walking with him pointed to the demon bones scattered on the ground and asked, "I don't want any of this? "

Zhang Yuan didn't answer him, but shook a hook on the rope, and said to Lu Tong, "This position is reserved for the skull of that half-demon."

Lu Tong watched the two of them leave, and when they disappeared completely, there was a click of the door opening behind him. When Lu Tong turned his head, his eyes met Niu Ji, who had lost a lot of weight, and the corners of his mouth were not shaved. The beard made Niu Ji look older by at least ten years. He was in a trance and shouted to Lu Tong, "Little Brother Lu."

"How much did you hear?"

"Before that person, said 'that half-demon inside'."

Lu Tong stared at Niu Ji for three seconds, then turned around suddenly, "Come with me."

Niu Ji followed Lu Tong into the grocery store. There were no extra chairs in the grocery store. Niu Ji sat on the unopened cardboard box, tall and huddled, looking pitiful. Lu Tong asked him, "Where do you want to sound ?”

"From scratch."

Lu Tong took out his mobile phone, searched a picture on Baidu, and handed it to him.

Niu Ji glanced at it and asked in confusion, "Brother Lu, why are you showing me a picture of a hermit crab?"

Lu Tong took back the phone, "Your mother's prototype."

Niu Ji hadn't eaten and slept well in the past few days, and his body was very weak, so he rolled his eyes and passed out.

When Niu Jixing turned around, he found himself lying on two or three cardboard boxes put together. Lu Tong sat in front of the computer on one side and glanced at him. Do you listen?"

Niu Ji nodded, and Lu Tong then said, "As I said just now, your mother is a hermit crab demon, and your father is a normal person. The characteristic of a hermit crab demon is that it needs to be parasitic. Without a host, their lifespan is only a few years. With a host After that, they will share the life of the host. I just found out that your mother was parasitic on your father when I wanted to catch her, but later found out that your father was willing to share half of her life with her, and to live and die with her .”

Niu Ji said weakly, "That's why you asked me to spend more time with them earlier."

Lu Tong did not deny that it was beyond his expectation that Niu Changsheng and Ji Xie could live to be 50 years old, but he didn't need to think about it, the days to come would not be too many.

"Because there is no human life in your hands, your mother's evil spirit is pure white, without a trace of blood." Lu Tong stared at the extra translucent smoke on Niu Ji's body, and sighed, "You are so unlucky!" Guy, your mother always thought you were a normal person and didn't want to tell you anything, who would have thought that once they died, you would suddenly awaken your demon power and become a half-demon."

"My mother is a demon, and my father is a human being. Aren't I born a half-demon?"

"You can regard the monster blood that your mother gave you as a recessive gene. It is possible that you only carry this blood, but from the outside, you will be a normal person all your life. As far as I know, this is what your parents want most." Lu Tong shrugged, "But now it seems that you don't have this life."

Niu Ji was stupefied, Lu Tong continued, "It's just a coincidence that I bumped into Zhang Yuan from the Diancang School."

"Yes, the person who fought with you just now?"

"It's him."

"You are all monster hunters..."

"Tianshi." Lu Tong took Niu Ji's questioning words and explained, "The faction of Tianshi can be traced back to the early Tang Dynasty, and since then, there has been a clear distinction in the attitude towards monsters. There are two groups of people. One group of people insists that they are not of our race, and their hearts must be different. As long as they are monsters, they will be killed without leaving any trouble. The other group believes that it is natural for human beings to live together in the world. During the period, the two particularly representative Tianshi sects were located in the north of the Yangtze River and south of the Yangtze River, so they were called the Northern Tianshi and the Southern Tianshi, and this title has been handed down to this day."

Niu Ji murmured, "That's because the Southern Heavenly Master is more humane."

"Northern celestial masters have always disagreed with southern celestial masters' overly soft-hearted attitude in dealing with those monsters that have not harmed people. If they don't harm people now, it doesn't mean they won't in the future. Monsters mixed in the world are a threat that may detonate at any time. □. You can’t say that their ideas are wrong, if I hadn’t known you for more than ten years, how would I know if I let you go today, tomorrow you will become anti-social as soon as you are stimulated.”

"So brother Lu, you are a Southern Heavenly Master?"

"Neither." Lu Tong changed the topic about himself, "Diancang School is a very typical northern school of heavenly masters, and this Zhang Yuan is a very typical northern school of heavenly masters. It is said that when he was a child, his family Even if he died at the hands of monsters, he treats monsters absolutely equally, and kills one when he sees them."

Niu Ji asked, "Brother Lu, do you recognize him?"

"I don't know, I've heard of it. In recent years, there has been a saying in the world of celestial masters that Southern Qi and Bei Zhang are the two most powerful and famous figures in the younger generation of celestial masters. Bei Zhang is the Zhang Yuan of the Diancang sect."

Niu Ji turned pale and said, "Then I heard him say that he will come to you again, Brother Lu, in order to prevent me from being torn apart by him, will you be in danger?"

Lu Tong said, "This is not something you need to consider." He suddenly became serious, "Aiji, you have a more important matter to face now."

Niu Ji was at a loss, "More important?"

"You should think about going on a blind date and falling in love."

Niu Ji's eyes were dazed, and Lu Tong said, "I said before, the hermit crab demon will end up not finding a host. Go on a blind date, love chicken, and see if you are lucky enough to find someone who is willing to share half of your life like your father treats your mother." to your people."

Niu Jishu shook his head on the cardboard box, "I can't find it, besides, I don't want to drag others down."

In the next few days, Niu Ji always soaked in the grocery store, moved a cardboard box and sat at the door to bask in the sun, and went back to sleep on the second floor of the barbecue shop at night. He quit his job in Huanzhou. Next to a small pot of cactus with small white flowers, there was a box of business cards that Lu Tong had put on it not long ago. Niu Ji scanned the QR code and visited Lu Tong's Taobao store. He asked Lu Tong, "Brother Lu, I will give you a Customer service."

"Customer service?" Lu Tong said, "It's just my shop that no one has been looking for for a few days, and I still need customer service? Why don't you reopen the seafood barbecue restaurant?"

"I don't want to ruin the brand that my parents worked so hard to manage."

This morning Niu Ji carried the cardboard box and sat in front of the grocery store as usual. Lu Tong went out. Half a day later, Niu Ji saw him coming back with a plastic tank with a cover. Niu Ji stared at the tank. There was a tortoise the size of an adult's palm, and he felt a little surprised, because Lu Tong didn't seem like someone who likes to keep pets, "Brother Lu, do you want to raise a tortoise?"

Lu Tong stuffed the plastic tank on him, "You keep it."

"I?"

"After eating your mother's grilled squid for more than ten years, I can't watch you die young." Lu Tong looked at the tortoise in the tank and said, "This is a tortoise, I found a spare tire for you, you take good care of it. "
