Monster Apartment

Gu Bai looked at the photo for a while, then looked up at Zhai Liangjun: "Is this separate?"

Gu Bai was referring to the snake and turtle on the portrait.

This photo is not well taken, it is very tilted, and it is a bit out of shape, and the details are not clear at all.

"The separate ones are the Spirit Snake and the Xuan Turtle. You just have to know what you have in mind after reading it. When you go back to Xuanwu, there are portraits." Zhai Liangjun explained.

Gu Bai held the photo, nodded, and then asked: "Is this portrait the same as Mr. Si's?"

Zhai Liangjun nodded, "It's all drawn by Bai Ze."

Gu Bai was taken aback for a moment, feeling a little curious about the name he just heard today.

He held the photo and thought about it, but still couldn't hold back: "Bai Ze, is that the Bai Ze in the legend? The one who knows everything in the world."

"That's right." Zhai Liangjun nodded, "They secretly found these out of the scrolls of ghosts and ghosts drawn by Bai Ze back then, and the ones that were circulated outside were all copies."

Gu Bai exclaimed "Wow", looking at the photo in his hand, he felt really amazing.

Before he saw the picture of Pixiu that Si Yiming gave him, he felt that it was definitely drawn by top masters. Gu Bai also learned a little bit of ink painting, so he knew how hard it is to draw that kind of sharpness. difficult.

Ink wash is different from other colorful painting genres. It cannot use sharp lines and bright color differences to highlight the contrast, so as to achieve the purpose of visual impact on the viewer. Ink wash pays attention to form and meaning, and cannot be as close to real as oil painting performance, but pay more attention to dynamic capture.

To express the meaning with the form and shape the shape with the mind, to achieve such a state, it cannot be achieved without decades of hard practice. In addition, you must have a certain talent in this area.

Anyway, Gu Bai has given up treatment for ink painting. Compared with ink painting, he has a natural sensitivity to the colors made by mixing pigments and sludge, so naturally he will not go around in a big circle to learn ink painting.

Bai Ze must be very good at drawing, Gu Bai thought.

"Mr. Si didn't tell me that the painting was painted by Bai Ze before." Gu Bai muttered softly.

Zhai Liangjun understood: "I'm afraid you should go to Bai Ze. Bai Ze obeyed the Yellow Emperor's words before. After drawing the picture of spirits and monsters, his vitality was seriously injured, and his memory was not very good."

Gu Bai was stunned for a moment: "Vitality is seriously injured?"

"Not everyone can draw spiritual paintings." Zhai Liangjun stood next to Gu Bai and said, "After Bai Ze finishes painting, he talks about painting again and becomes Bai Zegan. After talking, he falls asleep for thousands of years. After waking up... ..."

Mr. Zhai pointed to his own brain: "After that, it's not so good here. He often forgets what he has said. There are monsters who sneak up on him to draw spiritual paintings, and Bai Ze also forgets that he can't draw. If it weren't for us When it is discovered in time, Bai Ze will really be squeezed into Bai Ze's life."

Later, Si Yiming forced Bai Ze to let him write a calligraphic painting and hang it on the wall, which said: Refuse to draw spiritual paintings, and do not be Bai Zeqian.

Every time Bai Ze sees the calligraphy hanging on the wall, he will think of it, so he managed to stabilize this demented beast. Although there will be some accidents occasionally, it can still be regarded as keeping Bai Ze alive. The life of the beast.

"So Gu Xiaobai, you are really important." Zhai Liangjun earnestly said.

All the monsters in China are staring at Penglai's mirage and are so greedy. Now that there is someone who can draw spiritual paintings without any sequelae, all those monsters are so jealous that they are bleeding.

As Zhai Liangjun said, he glanced outside and started fighting again, but this time the two who hadn't even changed back to their prototypes could not help hissing when they noticed that they were beating each other's faces, and touched each other's faces. own handsome face.

After thinking about it, Mr. Zhai went over and closed the door.

Gu Bai was holding the photo, his line of sight was blocked by Mr. Zhai, but he didn't see clearly what was going on outside, but he didn't see the two giant beasts biting each other like before, and the dragon roared and the beast roared for a while, Gu Bai was greatly relieved tone.

"Then dad said before that he has been with me for more than 200 years?" Gu Bai looked up at Zhai Liangjun who was sitting next to him with a teacup, "But I don't remember it being that long."

"I don't remember what happened before I became a spirit, whether it's a monster or a spiritual thing." Zhai Liangjun took a sip of tea, "Being a spirit means gradually giving birth to spiritual wisdom. During this period, there will be a period of transition. Yes, it means that you have jumped from a low-level species to another level. To put it bluntly, you have changed a species, and you have to have time to adapt."

It was also quite dangerous during this period, the old ginseng was killed by Gu Lang, a stumbling block that came out halfway on the road to becoming a fine man.

It takes decades for animals like them to grow from vegetation to life, but for a naturally raised spiritual creature like Gu Bai, it is calculated in units of ten years.

During this period, most of the elves will choose to sleep, reduce their activity level to a minimum, and maintain the most ordinary sense of existence, so as not to be caught and become a feast for those elves who have become elves.

And this transition period is called ignorance.

Equivalent to the human infant stage.

Do humans remember things from infancy?

will not.

Therefore, monsters basically don't remember things when they were ignorant.

"But I'm quite curious about what your body is." Zhai Liangjun smacked his lips. "I should have to wait for Bai Ze to come back. Although he has a bad memory, he knows everything. Ask him and he will be able to remember and answer."

Gu Bai looked at the photo, felt in his pocket and took out a pencil, but he couldn't find any drawing paper that could be used as a rough draft.

He paused, and had no choice but to continue talking to Zhai Liangjun: "Where did Bai Ze go?"

"Amazon rainforest. I haven't come back for so long. I guess I'm squatting in the forest every day thinking about who he is, where he is, and why he went there." Zhai Liangjun replied casually.

They were not at all worried that Bai Ze would have problems outside.

Because none of the monsters outside of the land of China can fight.

Even Bai Ze, who is not good at fighting, walks sideways when he goes out, not to mention that Bai Ze is born with a friendly buff, so going outside is much safer than staying in his own country.

And if something big is going to happen in the land of Shenzhou, he, Bai Ze, will come back faster than anyone else.

Gu Bai hesitated to speak, but stopped: "..."

Is it true that none of your beasts is reliable except for Mr. Si?

Di Liangjun felt that he couldn't answer this question, so he pretended to look around, but saw the pencil in Gu Bai's hand.

There is no drawing paper.

"You have drawing paper in the car?" Zhai Liangjun asked.

Gu Bai nodded.

Originally, he was just planning to wander around this monster fair to open his eyes, and followed Mr. Si to the deep mountains to find his father, so he didn't plan to move the things in the car at all.

Unexpectedly, he bumped into his father directly.

"I'll get it for you." Mr. Zhai said, and walked out slowly.

There is no one in this hall.

Gu Bai blinked lightly, put the photo aside, took a deep breath, looked down at the photos he took on the DSLR in the past two days, looked at the photo he took of Taotie and Pixiu fighting, and patted his face vigorously .

After feeling the pain, he looked down at the photo again, and after finding that there had been no change, he showed a dazed expression.

Well, it seems that this is really not something that can be explained by dreams.

Gu Bai deleted the photos in the SLR one by one, sighed heavily, and looked up at the crack in the door left by Mr. Zhai.

Gu Lang and Si Yiming were no longer fighting.

They were confronting each other, as if they were discussing some terms.

Gu Bai respects his father and also respects Si Yiming. The two seem to have irreconcilable conflicts, and Gu Bai himself does not understand how monsters handle conflicts. Mr. Zhai said that it is normal for them to fight, so don't worry about it at all. , Gu Bai also tried to adapt to this normal state.

Although he is still worried, as long as nothing happens, Gu Bai can barely accept it.

Maybe this is a monster, Gu Bai thought, but it doesn't seem to have much influence on him.

——At least before he really saw himself turning into a non-human, Gu Bai didn't feel that his life would change much.

Gu Bai is very clear that his own adaptability to the surrounding environment is quite strong.

Back then when he woke up and found that his old father was gone, he calmed down after panicking for a while, but now he just found out that his old father is not a human being...

Oh, and he's not human himself.

... This incident seems to be a little more exciting than the mysterious disappearance of his father back then.

Thinking about it this way, his adaptability and hands-on ability are so strong, it seems that he is really beyond the reach of ordinary children.

What did he do when he found out his dad wasn't there?

I didn't cry, but felt hungry, so I ran to the kitchen to cook noodles for myself.

After I was full, I called 110 and followed the police uncle to the office for a walk.

At that time, the old policeman said it was a special case, but don't worry, and then he was sent home.

Gu Bai put the camera in his hand on the coffee table next to him, slowly rubbed his face that hurt from being patted before, recalling the past.

When he was a child, his brain seemed to be smarter than children of the same age.

He has good grades in childhood, and has a talent for drawing, without the impetuousness of a child, and the whole person is very calm.

Gu Bai carefully recalled his past 20 years, and after bringing in his identity as not an ordinary human being, he found that many things that he had explained away with lame explanations such as talents became reasonable.

Gu Bai touched his "thumping" heart that was beating fast, and felt that he needed to sleep and calm down very much now.

When Zhai Liangjun came over with Gu Bai's sketchbook in his pocket, he found that Gu Xiaobai was already leaning against the back of the chair, dozing off bit by bit.

Mr. Zhai is shrewd and knows that Gu Bai has been tense ever since he saw Si Yiming change back to his original form, and when he watched Gu Lang fight with Si Yiming these two days, he even became cautious about breathing.

Si Yiming couldn't do things like appease Gu Bai, neither could Gu Lang, nor could a vixen.

But it is okay to let Gu Bai stay alone for a while and calm down.

After all, it was raised by humans, and the acceptance of this kind of thing is not as high as imagined.

But it can be regarded as accepting it quickly, Mr. Zhai thought, at least Gu Bai has been working hard to adjust and accept it, and he didn't faint directly.

The two human beings in Shanhaiyuan in Kyushu who have now turned to cultivation, when they first knew that their partner was a monster, they all fainted without exception.

Gu Xiaobai is worthy of being a spiritual creature raised by nature, but when he grows up, his mental strength will be higher than that of human beings.

Di Liangjun gently put down the sketchbook in his hand, and turned to look at Gu Lang and Si Yiming who were stepping in.

Seeing Gu Bai dozing off, Gu Lang and Si Yiming lowered their footsteps in unison.

Si Yiming gave Gu Lang two translucent small discs about the size of thumbnails with a blank face.

Zhai Liangjun knew that thing, and it was a rare communication weapon in this era.

After all, after the aura retreated, the magic weapon of communication was not very useful. The transmission of signals to humans relied on electromagnetic waves. The magic weapon of communication back then relied on the aura that was available everywhere.

Now that the spiritual energy is extremely thin, the magic weapon of communication has also withdrawn from the stage. What Si Yiming gave Gu Lang was a new magic weapon of communication that took a lot of effort to figure out. easy to use.

Because refining is too difficult, it is priceless.

Zhai Liangjun was a little jealous.

Gu Bai seemed to be aware of it, and looked up at the door in a daze.

Gu Lang strode over, picked up his good boy, took out the mobile phone in Gu Baiyi's pocket, and put one of the small discs into Gu Bai's mobile phone case.

Then he took off the black braided bracelet from his wrist, and put it on Gu Bai's other wrist that didn't have a pixiu bracelet.

The things inside this bracelet are Gu Lang's only remaining assets, including the old ginseng he caught for Gu Bai.

Gu Lang himself didn't care about property and the like, it would be more useful to leave it to Gu Bai.

"Good boy, keep in touch." Gu Lang said, "If you are bullied, call Dad back."

Gu Bai, who was lying on Gu Lang's shoulder in a daze, was taken aback for a moment, and then he came to his senses: "Are you leaving again?"

"Yeah." Gu Lang nodded.

Not all divine beasts are able to communicate barely like Si Yiming. Gu Lang is indeed not afraid to fight those divine beasts, but it may involve Gu Bai.

The main reason is that Gu Lang offended Jai Zi back then, and the number of fights with him was not too small. This divine beast is too vengeful. If Gu Bai is involved, it is not so easy for the cub to escape the adult divine beast's revenge. .

Moreover, fierce beasts fight fiercely, saying that the whole world is their enemy is literally meaning.

Picking and picking, Si Yiming is still reliable.

And Bai Ze trusts Si Yiming very much, even if Gu Lang is upset that his good boy is full of bravery, he also knows that this is just right.

Gu Lang also felt that he could actually run with Gu Bai in his pocket, but it's a pity that there are too many variables in the growth period.

At least Gu Lang couldn't protect Gu Bai from the wave of evil spirits when his soul came out of his body.

After being scolded by Si Yiming, although Gu Lang felt uncomfortable, he knew something was wrong.

Gu Bai looked at Gu Lang disappointed.

"Where are you going after that?" Gu Bai asked.

Gu Lang thought for a while and replied, "Let's go to the Amazon Rainforest, go find Bai Ze."

The author has something to say: Bai Ze: Hello, who are you?
