There are always monsters coming to eat
Work related (2)
Bird froze there, looking at the hidden door in disbelief.What is this person thinking? He is obviously not a very rich person, so why is he not interested in gold and silver?
It looked at the small half piece of bread left, and finally went up to peck it clean.After transforming into a demon queen, eating these things doesn't really matter the feeling of fullness, but eating a small half piece of bread gives me an indescribable satisfaction.Different from the feeling of eating gold, silver and jewelry, it is a more brisk and down-to-earth feeling.
It turns out... is that how human beings eat?
Shu Jinniao squatted on the chair, shook the feathers on his body, looked at the dark room, narrowed his eyes, somehow remembered the rich man who kept him in captivity when he was not a demon.
Even though the family was very rich for a while, it was a pity that the prosperity will decline after a long time. In less than ten years, the family fell into decline, and even its shelter from the cold was demolished.
The wealthy young man who used to put it on his shoulder every day also became depressed day by day, as if he had forgotten its existence, and he hadn't fed it for half a month.
The gold-washing bird flew to other rich and noble families in the middle of the night, stealing jewels, and then flew back to spit out the cold-absorbing money to the rich and noble sons.The young man's eyes lit up when he saw the gold, he happily put it on his shoulder, and then sold the gold for a good price.
After that, every day.
The boy always held it in his hand and said:
"My little bird, spit out some more gold."
So Shu Jinniao went to more rich and noble families every night to eat more jewelry.Sometimes it takes a long time to fly, and you are exhausted after returning in the daytime, but the young master still urges it to spit out gold.
It was willing, it thought, as long as that person is still willing to put it on his shoulder and talk to it every day, that would be great.
But I don't know when that son became addicted to gambling, throwing a lot of money from the cold shelter money on the gambling table.Sometimes you win some, but most of the time you lose all your money.So the young master became more and more dissatisfied, dissatisfied that it could only spit out a small piece of gold every time.
And it hadn't stood on that person's shoulder for a long time, listening to him call to itself with full of affection.
Until one day, the young man took it to gamble with him, and finally lost all his fortune at the gambling table, and it was not enough.The dealer said:
"The spirit bird on your shoulder, why don't you give it to me. The money you owe today will be written off."
"If you want to avoid the cold, I will send it to you every day." The young master said with a flattering smile.
"I don't want that cold protection gold, I just heard that the meat of these spirit-eating birds can prolong life."
The young master hesitated, but finally handed it over.
It widened its eyes and let out a mournful cry, but the young master left the casino without looking at it.And it was also taken away by the dealer and will become a soup cup.
At the moment of death, it is resentful.Resent why that person didn't save himself, and resent human desires.Xu is too resentful.It actually discovered that it had become a demon after death, and most demons turned into evil because of resentment.It is the same, it just wants that person to experience the feeling of losing everything.
It wanted to eat that person into its stomach, but in the end it still hesitated.It just pecked out the man's two eyes and left.Those eyes that once looked at it are now its forever.
After eating human eyes, Shu Jinniao found that not only her demon power increased greatly, but also she could spit out a large amount of gold and silver treasures.So it began to wander around the world, to deceive those greedy people, until finally they willingly offered their eyes.Like a game of revenge, let it be addicted to it.
With another pair of human eyes, its power can be increased to another level.
Shu Jinniao looked at the closed door, her eyes turned scarlet, and then she shook her goose-yellow feathers.
Human beings are greedy and ungrateful, and there is no wrong.
4. Wash the golden bird
-
After Shi Yu woke up, he found that Shu Jinniao hadn't left yet, and was still squatting on the handle of the chair, as if he hadn't woken up yet.
Its head was almost buried in its own fur, so it really looked like a yellow dumpling.The tail feathers behind it are very long, dragging to the ground, and swinging twice as it exhales.
Shi Yu took a look, and saw that the small half piece of bread from yesterday was gone.So I unpacked another pack of biscuits from the shelf, warmed a glass of milk, put some out on a shallow dish, and soaked half of the biscuits in it.Then he went to the chair, poked the golden bird with his hand, and rubbed the buried bird's head with his palm.
Shu Jinniao was woken up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the young man holding a saucer and putting it on the ground, and then he sat back on the chair and ate his breakfast.
Shu Jinniao jumped off the chair, turned twice in front of the saucer, then lowered its head and ate the biscuits soaked in milk, warm and sweet.It raised its head quietly, looked at the young man who was looking out of the window, and felt a strange feeling in his heart: Why does this person not want gold and silver treasures?
Shi Yu sat next to the glass window of the convenience store in the morning, holding a book.When someone came to buy something, he looked through the shelves, and then sat back down.
Shu Jinniao looked at Shiyu and felt that such a person was really boring every day.Like a stone statue, there is no expression on his face.In fact, it doesn't need to be wasted here. There are so many greedy people in the world, and I can get a pair of eyes early to make the demon power stronger.
But for some reason, it was somewhat unwilling to leave now.Maybe it doesn't believe that there are human beings who have no desires and no desires. Maybe it's the bread and biscuits, which are delicious... Or maybe it's——
That warm hand seems to have never been encountered again in hundreds of years.
At noon, Shi Yu calculated that the money he earned in the morning was enough for today's expenses.He simply turned the listing on the glass window around, and then took some change and looked at the golden bird:
"I'm going out, how about you?"
Shu Jinniao hesitated for a moment, then flew to Shiyu's shoulder, buried in the thickly wrapped scarf, only showing a pair of eyes.
Shi Yu didn't say much, just took it out.
It has been a long time since the golden bird has been so close to human beings. Looking at the eyes of the young man who is close at hand, it thinks, or just peck it away.But the warmth in the scarf made it a little reluctant to move.
Shi Yu just went to the supermarket and picked up buttery bread.After looking around, there was no one there, so he whispered:
"What flavor do you like?"
Shu Jinniao was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the young man was asking for his own opinion.Looking at the colorful packaging on the shelf, it doesn't look fancy or expensive at all.But the young man seemed to have been waiting for its answer, so he moved his body and whispered something:
"Same as you."
So Shi Yu stretched out his hand to explore the shelf just now, but he didn't expect a figure to come over suddenly, standing beside him with a slight smile, and said:
"Your bird is interesting."
Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, then, carrying two breads in his arms, without looking at the speaker, he went straight to the checkout area.
The Golden Shu bird was also startled. Although it was only for a short moment, it felt that the aura emanating from the person who spoke just now was terrifyingly powerful.
Shi Yu paid the money and walked to her convenience store without looking back.Although he couldn't tell whether it was a human or a demon just now, he didn't want to have too much interaction no matter which one it was.
If you are a troublesome person, if you see yourself talking to a bird, you may get entangled.If it is a monster in human form, most of the monsters are powerful, and if they do something evil, it will probably be more troublesome.
Wrapped in a scarf, Shi Yu returned to the convenience store, and after closing the door, he was slightly relieved.And Shu Jinniao was bored in the scarf, thinking, tonight, when the young man fell asleep, he would steal his eyes. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time.
In the evening, Shi Yu soaked milk as usual, biting butter bread and sitting in a chair watching TV.The glass window was knocked.
Shi Yu walked over and heard the voice in the afternoon before pulling away:
"I don't have a fixed place to live, I just want to stay overnight."
Shi Yu hesitated and didn't speak, but the man outside stretched out a hand:
"You should know that this is the demon seal. I can only maintain my human form, but I don't have much demon power."
It was dark outside, and Shi Yu couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, but the ink seal on the back of the man's hand was indeed the demon seal.On this seal, if it is not washed away with the blood of the sealer, it cannot be untied.
Shi Yu knocked on the window to express his consent, and then opened the door.
When the man walked in, Shi Yu could see clearly that the figure of this monster was a somewhat tall man.
The half-length hair was a little curly, and the end was tied casually with a black hanging jade headband.The robe was casually draped over his body, and a long cigarette rod was pinned to his waist.
Shi Yu was slightly dazed, for some reason he always felt as if he had seen it somewhere.
The man walked to the fireplace on his own, untied the long tobacco rod from his waist, held it with one hand, poked the golden bird that had been staring at him vigilantly before, and smiled lowly:
"This bird is really interesting."
Shi Yu tilted his head and did not speak.Sitting back on the chair, looking at the man teasing the bird with the cigarette stick, he slightly stretched out his hand to pick up the golden bird on his shoulder, and then asked:
"what's your name?"
"Su Mi." The man changed his posture, lying on his side on the floor, with one leg propped up, "What about you?"
"Shiyu."
"Shiyu... ah." The man whispered something, but didn't say anything more, just evoked an inexplicable smile, and turned around to watch the TV that Shiyu hadn't turned off.
Shi Yu also huddled in the chair, swaying slightly while reading the book.Shu Jinniao was nestled on his neck, and Shi Yu's somewhat partial and protective action just now made his heart tremble.This person—is he trying to protect himself?
But Shu Jinniao didn't have time to think too much, it stared at Su Mi not far away with his back to them.
As a human being, Shi Yu may not be able to feel that power, but as a demon, he is clearly aware of it.That is definitely not the power after sealing the demon power.What is this Su Mi's plan?
Later, Shi Yu put away his book and was going to rest. He put the golden bird on the handle of the chair, then looked at Su Mi and said:
"When you leave, close the door gently."
Su Mi knocked on the cigarette rod to show that he heard it, while Shu Jinniao huddled on the handle, keeping away from Su Mi.
In the early morning, Shujinniao pushed open the crack of the door and got into Shiyu's room.Flying to his bedside, looking at the sleeping face of the young man.As long as you peck it down, your demon power will rise to another level and you will become a great demon.
But—and then?
It was originally born out of resentment, enjoying the pleasure of revenge on human beings.Watching those greedy people step by step towards despair makes it extremely enjoyable.
But this person doesn't have those greedy looks at all, although he is cold, he is surprisingly gentle.It's like... the little boy's original appearance.
Shu Jinniao hesitated for a while, and finally jumped onto Shiyu's quilt, rubbed his exposed face, and then flew out.
It came out of Shiyu's room and saw Su Mi squinting at the door.
"What are you going to do?" The hair on Shu Jinniao's body exploded, this man was too dangerous.
"Heh," Su Mi slightly opened his eyes, the pupils of his pupils dilated very large, "I'm different from you little monsters in that I'm not interested in human flesh."
"Then why did you lie to him?"
"It's just interesting." Su Mi shook the tobacco rod, then twisted a small handful of tobacco from the pouch and put it into the pot, "You bird, you still have some friendship, so I'll give you a ride. "
Before Shu Jinniao could react, Su Mi took a puff of cigarette, and then slowly exhaled it.
Shu Jinniao only felt that he was shrouded in a large cloud of smoke, and there were endless noises around him, and finally everything fell silent.It opened its eyes and looked around, only to feel that it seemed very familiar.
Then it saw a figure that it could not forget for hundreds of years, it was the little prince.
The young master's eyes were already blind, and he was wrapped in a piece of white cloth.He was sitting in a deserted temple, holding a wooden bauble in his hand.
As the golden-washing bird flew closer, it was only then that it was carved to be a chubby bird.
The little boy held the wood carving in his palm and said in a soft voice:
"Little bird, little bird, I don't want you to spit out money, come back quickly..."
"Little bird, little bird, I am confused..."
"Little bird, where are you..."
The young master hugged the wood carving to his heart, although he didn't have any tears, he sobbed uncontrollably.
Shu Jinniao stared blankly at the dilapidated temple and the embarrassed man.I feel that my vision is a little blurry, this person, I still miss myself...
It flew over, stood on the man's shoulder, and rubbed his face.Then he bit off the gold grain tied to his ankle and placed it beside the man.
The man touched his shoulder excitedly, but there was nothing, and then he was so disappointed that he hugged the wooden bird again:
"Little bird..."
"He has also received the consequences of his crimes. Forget about your grievances. Although you have been a demon for a hundred years, you can't be considered to have done a lot of evil. You will be reincarnated in the third round of the animal road and wait for the fourth life. If you still have a destiny, go to him. " Su Mi's voice came from nowhere, and Shu Jinniao felt that the smoke around him gradually wrapped him up, and everything became blurred.
It's just that the phrase "little bird" that the man called is still echoing in its ears.
On the platform to escape the cold, Hong Shao in the Golden Pavilion meets each other without knowing the hearts of the people. A hundred years have passed, but the dignified and dignified have a good end in this world.
Su Mi put down her cigarette stick, and there was no golden bird in the house.
He pushed open the door of Shiyu's room, leaned against the door frame, and looked at the sleeping person curled up on the bed.Su Mi rubbed the fingers made of broken stones with her fingertips, stood quietly for a while, then closed the door softly, and lay down on the carpet again.
No one in this world is a lone stone. You don't believe me, but look, I'm here.
"Kunming's state offering to wash the golden bird, shaped like a sparrow, yellow in color, soft and dense, often soars over the sea... The bird often spits out gold chips like millet, and it can be cast as a utensil... This bird is afraid of frost and snow, so it builds a small room to It is called the Bihan Terrace..." - "Taiping Guangji Shujinniao"
5. Lu Shu
When Shi Yu woke up in the morning and walked out of the bedroom, he saw that the living room was empty. He looked at the wall clock, and found that it was not yet time for the delivery, and he did not change his clothes.
While the milk was hot, there was a knock on the door.He froze for a moment, thinking about why the delivery man came so early today.I pulled the scarf and wrapped it casually, and went to open the door.
Fearing that the cold air would come in too much, he only opened a crack in the door, thinking that it would be good to leave the goods at the door, and he would move in by himself later.
However, before he could open his mouth, the somewhat familiar cigarette rod came in.He shook it, as if signaling him to open the door.
Shi Yu subconsciously wanted to close the door, and agreed that he would only stay for one night. Even though he had the demon seal, he really didn't want to get too involved with such a big demon who could transform into a human form.
However, the door was blocked by Su Mi outside, and it was slightly pushed open. The hand with the seal of the demon seal on it reached in with a piece of bread and shook it a few times.
Creamy.
Shi Yu looked at the bag of bread, hesitated for a moment, and opened the door.
Su Mi walked in swaggeringly, sat on the carpet again, threw the bread to Shiyu, then lowered his head and pinched some tobacco leaves from the cigarette pouch and said:
"Human food is more unpalatable than before."
As if he didn't hear Su Mi's words, Shi Yu took out the milk from the microwave oven, sat on the chair and tore open the bag of bread, took a bite, his mouth was full of sweet and soft taste, and he squinted his eyes.
Su Mi clicked her tongue and took a sip from the fire.
Shi Yu looked at Su Mi, and threw the biscuit that had just been put aside.Su Mi received it as soon as she stretched out her hand, tore open two pieces and threw them into her mouth.I didn't say anything more.
Shi Yu doesn't smoke, but Su Mi sat there and made the room full of smoke, but Shi Yu didn't feel disgusted, on the contrary—a little bit of peace of mind?
Shi Yu couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was, it seemed like it should be so normal.Su Mi’s does not know what kind of tobacco leaves are used, it will not make people feel swaying, and has a faint woody fragrance.
"How long do you want to stay?" Shi Yu asked after eating the bread, looking at Su Mi.
"You're fine here," Su Mi lay down, "Let's stay a little longer."
Shi Yu had never seen such a reckless demon before, so he didn't know how to answer the words for a while.He just stared at Su Mi with no expression on his face.
Su Mi exhaled smoke, narrowed his eyes, and said:
"I will always maintain the human form, and I can help you."
Shi Yu looked around at his small convenience store, and then at Su Mi, his eyes were full - there is nothing you can do to help here.
Su Mi pretended not to see Shi Yu's gaze, put away the cigarette stick on her own, and then turned around, forming a tail from the back of her clothes.
It was actually a lion's tail, and it swung up and down.
"The lion is the king of all beasts, and the same is true for transforming into a demon. I can help you ward off the demon."
Shi Yu didn't pay attention to Su Mi's words, but stared carefully at the brownish-yellow lion tail with a ball of fluff at the end, his eyes lit up.
Lion equals - big cat?
Hmm... Although it's not as fluffy as a kitten, but - it seems to be good?Moreover, Su Mi looked lazy, and she shouldn't cause any trouble.
Shi Yu stood up and walked to Su Mi's side, squatted down and fiddled with the tail hanging there a few times.I felt that the hand felt good, so I said softly:
"kindness."
Su Mi turned her back to Shiyu, narrowed her eyes, and smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth.
-
A little later, the deliveryman delivered the goods that Shiyu had ordered before.
Shi Yu moved several stacked boxes to the shelf. Seeing that the delivery man had left, Su Mi also stood up lazily, picked up a box with a cigarette stick in one hand, and placed it in front of the shelf with ease.
Shi Yu glanced sideways, put the wine box that he had been struggling to move on the ground again, and picked up the much lighter box of potato chips next to it.
Seeing Shi Yu's movements, Su Mi didn't say much, and reached out to pick up the box of wine.
With the last box of potato chips left, Shi Yu staggered a bit when he lifted it up. Why is this box so much heavier than the previous ones.Frowning slightly, he put the box of potato chips at the bottom of the shelf.
"Do you want to take it apart?" Su Mi finally put down the cigarette stick in his hand, sat on a box and looked at Shi Yu and asked.
Shi Yu nodded, and then said:
"I will do it myself."
Su Mi didn't hold back, she just lay down on the carpet again, and turned on the TV.
"In recent days, many residential areas in this city have been invaded by unknown objects, but there have been no casualties or property losses. Specifically..."
Several TV stations were broadcasting this news in turn, Su Mi changed several channels and finally stopped on the opera channel.
Shi Yu turned around and continued to organize the shelves, unpacking several boxes one by one, and filling them on the shelves.When I got to the last box of potato chips, there seemed to be something in that box.
Shi Yu put down the scissors, squatted down and put his ears on the side of the box. There was a slight "dong dong" sound inside, as if something was hitting the box, but it didn't sound like a mouse scratching its claws.Shi Yu stood up, hesitating whether to call back the delivery man just now, and simply exchange the goods.
But thinking that if it was a little monster, only he could see and hear it, and it would be very troublesome to explain it.
Shi Yu suddenly thought of Su Mi outside, if he was a demon, he should be able to sense it.
So Shi Yu poked his head out from behind the shelf, and saw Su Mi lying on his side with his back facing him, and the Peony Pavilion was playing on the TV—"We are not loved in the previous life, and we have lost half of our life, so the Tao will appear in the next life. I dreamed in this life... I love to kill this day and night, and then get Luofu's dream..."
Although Shiyu has seen many monsters, this is the first time he has seen a monster who likes opera.Although Su Mi's expression could not be seen, his tail melted out again, flicking back and forth behind him, as if he was used to it.
Shi Yu walked to the living room, knelt down and grabbed the dangling tail.A lion's mane is not as soft as a cat's, but the tip of its tail is particularly easy to pinch.
Su Mi tilted her head slightly, yawned and asked:
"what happened?"
"There is something in the box." Shi Yu withdrew his hand.
Su Mi stretched, stood up, and walked towards the shelf.Shi Yu followed behind and also passed by.
"That." Shi Yu pointed to the box in the farthest corner.
Su Mi stepped forward, knelt down and knocked on the side of the box a few times with her tobacco rod, and sure enough there was another thumping sound inside.
Then he stood up, looked at Shiyu and said:
"It's just a little guy, don't hurt anyone, just open it."
Shi Yu used scissors to cut the sealant shallowly, and lifted the lid.Most of the potato chip bags inside were ripped open, and the whole box was scattered.And lying in the middle of the potato chips was a little guy that looked like a horse, but it was much smaller than an ordinary pony, about the size of two palms, round.Its head is white, with a small half of red tail trailing behind it, and its whole body is covered with tiger-like stripes, which is really beautiful.
Seeing Shiyu, the little guy seemed a little afraid of strangers. He arched his body and hid in the potato chips. Although he buried his face in it, most of his buttocks were exposed.
Shi Yu slightly staggered her body, pursed her lips and looked at Su Mi.Some unsurely spit out a word:
"Demon?"
Su Mi also looked down at the box, fiddled with the pile of potato chips with her cigarette stick.
The little guy with his head buried inside seemed to have sensed something, and he stopped hiding his head. He hugged Su Mi's tobacco rod with two small hooves, and climbed up.
Su Mi picked up the cigarette rod, and the little guy was suspended in the air, but he was not afraid, and instead let out a small cry.
The little guy's cry is like a child's singing, although there is no rhythm, it is surprisingly pleasant.
Su Mi stretched out his hand to grab its neck, and put it on his shoulder.The little thing was a little unsteady, so he simply lay on Su Mi's shoulder, squinting his eyes and rubbing against Su Mi's messy curly hair.
"It's not a monster, it's a little deer Shu." Su Mi patted the little thing's head to prevent it from sticking out its tongue to lick him. "Auspicious beasts in the Nanshan area are relatively rare these years."
Shi Yu looked curiously at the little deer Shu lying on Su Mi's shoulder, is it an auspicious beast?
Sensing Shiyu's gaze, Lu Shu seemed to make a nervous "chichi" sound, his tail stood up alertly, and a pair of round eyes stared at Shiyu. Although there was no deterrence, it was still Can feel its resistance to Shiyu.
"Lu and Shu are very timid," Su Mi explained. "Wearing their furs can make a lot of children and grandchildren. In the early years, this family was almost driven to extinction. So they are very afraid of humans."
Shi Yu nodded, although he doesn't know why many people are always looking for the happiness of a family full of children and grandchildren, but to him, family affection seems to be just a vague term.However, he understood why Xiao Lu Shu was hostile to him, so he didn't react too much, so he turned around and put the crate of potato chips into the living room, and then sat back in front of the glass window.
Su Mi patted the little deer Shu on his shoulder, and also lay back in the living room, the Peony Pavilion had already finished singing.Su Mi yawned, pulled a cushion and fell asleep.
Xiao Lu Shu also found a comfortable position, nestled beside Su Mi, curled up and narrowed his eyes.
In the afternoon, Shi Yu sat in front of the window, flipping through books at random when no guests came.Never went to the living room.It wasn't until dinner that Shi Yu stood up and poked his head into the living room. He saw Su Mi sitting cross-legged and breathing smoke. Xiao Lu Shu seemed to be very close to Su Mi, shaking his chubby body and making joyful noises. Voice.
Shi Yu hesitated for a moment, warmed up a glass of milk, opened the bread, and sat back on the chair in front of the glass window.Seeing the darkness outside, his own blurry silhouette was reflected in the glass, hugging the hot milk, and sneezed.Sure enough, it was still a bit cold at night by the window.
Before Shi Yu finished eating the bread, he looked up and saw Su Mi leaning on the shelf behind him to light a cigarette through the glass.
"Why don't you go into the house?" Su Mi exhaled a puff of smoke, and extinguished the match with sparks.
Shi Yu pursed his lips and did not speak, but just looked at Su Mi, and found that Xiao Lu Shu was not leaning on him.
"It's just a little guy who knows how to be raw, and he will be cooked if he gives you some food." Su Mi lowered his head slightly, took a breath, "The little thing is very soft to hold."
Shi Yu moved his body and put down the half-eaten bread for the time being.I found several packages of different kinds of snacks from the shelves, and then walked into the living room.
Xiaolu Shu was stuck in the potato chip box, when he heard Shiyu's footsteps, he immediately stood up vigilantly, staring at Shiyu closely.
Shi Yu didn't come any closer either, and squatted not far from Xiao Lu Shu, unpacked several packets of snacks one by one, put them on the ground, and took two steps back.
Xiaolushu looked at Shiyu, and tentatively took two steps closer. Seeing that Shiyu hadn't moved, he quickly ran over, picked up a pack of snacks, and ran back to the previous carton.
Hiding behind the cardboard box, there was a creaking sound after a while.After a while, the sound stopped, and Xiaolu Shu ran out again to take a bag back.
By the time of the third package, Xiaolu Shu was no longer so nervous, and simply squatted at the place where Shiyu was placed and started eating.After eating a few mouthfuls, he walked to the remaining two packs, tasted two mouthfuls, and let out a happy cry.
Seeing that Xiao Lu Shu ate up a pack of strawberry-flavored chestnut rice sticks, Shi Yu went back to the shelf and took another pack. He wanted to put it on the ground, but was stopped by Su Mi.Shi Yu looked at Su Mi in confusion.
Su Mi took a few sticks of corn and put them in Shi Yu's palm. When the two touched, Shi Yu felt a strange feeling welling up in his heart. It was indescribably familiar but also tinged with fear. flinched.
Su Mi didn't care, put the corn sticks in Shi Yu's hands, and stood aside to continue smoking.
Xiao Lu Shu moved his nose, and looked at Shi Yu's hand with longing eyes, standing there hesitating.And Shi Yu squatted there a little stiffly, with no expression on his face.
After a while, Xiao Lu Shu walked carefully towards Shi Yu step by step, his eyes flicked back and forth between the corn stick in Shi Yu's hand and his face.
Finally, Xiaolu Shu stood one step away from Shiyu's palm, stretched his neck, carefully picked up a piece of corn sticks in his mouth, and then ran a long distance with a "swoosh".But soon, it leaned over carefully again, and took another one in its mouth.After going back and forth a few times, Xiaolu Shu finally let go of his courage a little bit, buried his little head in Shiyu's palm and started eating.
His furry head rubbed against Shi Yu's palm, but he was still stiff, not daring to make too much movement.
Su Mi looked down, walked back to the living room, turned on the electric heater, and tapped the floor with the cigarette rod.
Xiao Lu Shu let out a cry and ran over.After running for two steps, he turned his head and saw that Shi Yu was still squatting there, and rubbed back, biting Shi Yu's cuff with his mouth and pulling it, as if signaling him to go together.
Shi Yu froze for a moment, then took the remaining half of the pack of snacks, walked to the electric heater and sat down.Xiao Lu Shu also quickly leaned over, clasping Shi Yu's hand eagerly, looking greedy.
Su Mi lay on the other side, smiled lowly and said:
"It's similar."
Shi Yu didn't quite understand what Su Mi meant, and raised his head slightly.
Su Mi pointed to the remaining half of the bread with the cigarette stick, then turned over, took a book casually, and said nothing.
Shi Yu looked at Xiao Lu Shu, who was already full of food, leaning against his side with his eyes squinted and humming softly. Today's stove seemed to be a little overheated, and he felt his skin was slightly hot.
6. Lu Shu
-
When Shiyu got up the next day, Su Mi was no longer in the living room.He searched around and found Xiao Lu Shu sleeping in the box with half of his stomach turned over.
It seems that what he ate last night has not been fully digested, Xiaolu Shu's stomach is still bulging.Shi Yu softly put the lid back on the box, then opened the door wrapped in a scarf.
The alley was already narrow, and cars couldn't get in. When two bicycles were going towards each other, they had to stop slightly and stagger their bodies.But fortunately, there are two old residential areas around, and Shiyu's convenience store business is not bleak, at least there is no problem in maintaining life.
After the Spring Festival, Shiyu has lived here for three years.Although in the past, some inhuman things would often come to him, and many little monsters stayed in his living room, but recently, I don't know if it is his illusion, it seems that there are more inhuman things.
Shiyu has never liked to have too much contact with monsters, but he still likes furry things, which are soft to the touch, especially in winter, they are extraordinarily comfortable.
While he was dazed, Su Mi turned in from the alley with two plastic bags, saw Shi Yu standing at the door, stretched out his hand, and said:
"Waiting for me?"
Shi Yu didn't answer, but looked at the two plastic bags, which contained soy milk and pancakes.
"I've eaten." Su Mi walked into the room very naturally, "I brought some for you and the little one."
Shi Yu followed into the house and asked, "Are you rich?"
Su Mi put the things on the table, and then took out a handful of change from the inner pocket of his clothes, all of which were a few yuan: "I still have some savings for hundreds of years, except for buying tobacco, and these coins."
Shi Yu looked at the handful of money and probably didn't add up to thousands, and suddenly felt that the big monster in front of him was a little pitiful, and he had only saved so much for hundreds of years.
Su Mi walked up to the cardboard box and tapped the outer shell with the tobacco rod, there was a rustling sound from inside, and Xiao Lu Shu opened the lid, revealing a small head.
Shi Yu felt the soy milk and pancakes in the bag were still hot.Putting his share aside first, he took out a small bowl, poured out some soy milk, and put it next to Xiaolu Shu.
"This... can it be eaten?" Shi Yu hesitated holding a small half of pancake.
"It's better than eating the ones on your shelf." Su Mi stretched out the cigarette stick out the door and knocked off the ash, "Your human lives are also quite tenacious."
Shi Yu pretended not to hear, and put a small half of pancake on a plate, which was also placed on the ground.Sitting back on the chair, he also bit into pancakes.
Xiaolu Shu was completely unguarded towards Shiyu. After eating and drinking, he swayed to Shiyu's feet and spun around, contentedly barking twice. The clear and bright voice was like a song, very pleasant to the ear.Then Xiao Lu Shu nestled next to Su Mi's side, fiddled with the long tobacco rod beside Su Mi with his little hoof.
Su Mi stretched out his hand to lift Xiao Lu Shu away a bit, filled the smoke pot with tobacco, and lit it on fire. Xiao Lu Shu seemed very excited, and his tail twitched behind him, and he squatted beside Su Mi and yelled twice.
"It's strange to see Lu Shu here. This little guy was either kidnapped and escaped halfway, or lost." Su Mi looked at Shi Yu, "What are you going to do?"
Shi Yu was slightly taken aback when asked, what should I do?If it was not entrusted by others, he would not take the initiative to help.Especially looking for these inhuman things, most of them will cause trouble.Moreover, he was not good at communicating with people, and he didn't know how to do this matter of finding people.
"If its people can smell its scent, they will naturally look for it." Seeing Shi Yu's hesitant look, Su Mi said, "Just take it out for a walk."
Shi Yu nodded, simply turned over the sign on the glass window, and then found a backpack from the cabinet, stuffed with two packs of corn sticks, put the backpack on the ground, and opened the zipper.
Fawn Shu moved his nose and plunged into the backpack, kicking his four little hooves a few times to bury his whole body.
Shi Yu picked up the bag and quickly zipped it up.
Su Mi at the side smiled when he saw this coherent movement, then stood up, pointed to the back of his hand, and asked Shi Yu:
"Do you have gloves?"
Shi Yu guessed that Su Mi should go out with him, but the demon seal on the back of his hand is a bit obvious, if it is seen by someone who knows something about ghosts and ghosts in a crowded place, it may cause trouble.So he rummaged through the cabinet, found a pair of woolen gloves and handed them to Su Mi.
Su Mi put it on her hand twice, feeling a little tight, but it's not a problem to cover the demon seal.
Shi Yu put the backpack on her chest and pulled the zipper
It looked at the small half piece of bread left, and finally went up to peck it clean.After transforming into a demon queen, eating these things doesn't really matter the feeling of fullness, but eating a small half piece of bread gives me an indescribable satisfaction.Different from the feeling of eating gold, silver and jewelry, it is a more brisk and down-to-earth feeling.
It turns out... is that how human beings eat?
Shu Jinniao squatted on the chair, shook the feathers on his body, looked at the dark room, narrowed his eyes, somehow remembered the rich man who kept him in captivity when he was not a demon.
Even though the family was very rich for a while, it was a pity that the prosperity will decline after a long time. In less than ten years, the family fell into decline, and even its shelter from the cold was demolished.
The wealthy young man who used to put it on his shoulder every day also became depressed day by day, as if he had forgotten its existence, and he hadn't fed it for half a month.
The gold-washing bird flew to other rich and noble families in the middle of the night, stealing jewels, and then flew back to spit out the cold-absorbing money to the rich and noble sons.The young man's eyes lit up when he saw the gold, he happily put it on his shoulder, and then sold the gold for a good price.
After that, every day.
The boy always held it in his hand and said:
"My little bird, spit out some more gold."
So Shu Jinniao went to more rich and noble families every night to eat more jewelry.Sometimes it takes a long time to fly, and you are exhausted after returning in the daytime, but the young master still urges it to spit out gold.
It was willing, it thought, as long as that person is still willing to put it on his shoulder and talk to it every day, that would be great.
But I don't know when that son became addicted to gambling, throwing a lot of money from the cold shelter money on the gambling table.Sometimes you win some, but most of the time you lose all your money.So the young master became more and more dissatisfied, dissatisfied that it could only spit out a small piece of gold every time.
And it hadn't stood on that person's shoulder for a long time, listening to him call to itself with full of affection.
Until one day, the young man took it to gamble with him, and finally lost all his fortune at the gambling table, and it was not enough.The dealer said:
"The spirit bird on your shoulder, why don't you give it to me. The money you owe today will be written off."
"If you want to avoid the cold, I will send it to you every day." The young master said with a flattering smile.
"I don't want that cold protection gold, I just heard that the meat of these spirit-eating birds can prolong life."
The young master hesitated, but finally handed it over.
It widened its eyes and let out a mournful cry, but the young master left the casino without looking at it.And it was also taken away by the dealer and will become a soup cup.
At the moment of death, it is resentful.Resent why that person didn't save himself, and resent human desires.Xu is too resentful.It actually discovered that it had become a demon after death, and most demons turned into evil because of resentment.It is the same, it just wants that person to experience the feeling of losing everything.
It wanted to eat that person into its stomach, but in the end it still hesitated.It just pecked out the man's two eyes and left.Those eyes that once looked at it are now its forever.
After eating human eyes, Shu Jinniao found that not only her demon power increased greatly, but also she could spit out a large amount of gold and silver treasures.So it began to wander around the world, to deceive those greedy people, until finally they willingly offered their eyes.Like a game of revenge, let it be addicted to it.
With another pair of human eyes, its power can be increased to another level.
Shu Jinniao looked at the closed door, her eyes turned scarlet, and then she shook her goose-yellow feathers.
Human beings are greedy and ungrateful, and there is no wrong.
4. Wash the golden bird
-
After Shi Yu woke up, he found that Shu Jinniao hadn't left yet, and was still squatting on the handle of the chair, as if he hadn't woken up yet.
Its head was almost buried in its own fur, so it really looked like a yellow dumpling.The tail feathers behind it are very long, dragging to the ground, and swinging twice as it exhales.
Shi Yu took a look, and saw that the small half piece of bread from yesterday was gone.So I unpacked another pack of biscuits from the shelf, warmed a glass of milk, put some out on a shallow dish, and soaked half of the biscuits in it.Then he went to the chair, poked the golden bird with his hand, and rubbed the buried bird's head with his palm.
Shu Jinniao was woken up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the young man holding a saucer and putting it on the ground, and then he sat back on the chair and ate his breakfast.
Shu Jinniao jumped off the chair, turned twice in front of the saucer, then lowered its head and ate the biscuits soaked in milk, warm and sweet.It raised its head quietly, looked at the young man who was looking out of the window, and felt a strange feeling in his heart: Why does this person not want gold and silver treasures?
Shi Yu sat next to the glass window of the convenience store in the morning, holding a book.When someone came to buy something, he looked through the shelves, and then sat back down.
Shu Jinniao looked at Shiyu and felt that such a person was really boring every day.Like a stone statue, there is no expression on his face.In fact, it doesn't need to be wasted here. There are so many greedy people in the world, and I can get a pair of eyes early to make the demon power stronger.
But for some reason, it was somewhat unwilling to leave now.Maybe it doesn't believe that there are human beings who have no desires and no desires. Maybe it's the bread and biscuits, which are delicious... Or maybe it's——
That warm hand seems to have never been encountered again in hundreds of years.
At noon, Shi Yu calculated that the money he earned in the morning was enough for today's expenses.He simply turned the listing on the glass window around, and then took some change and looked at the golden bird:
"I'm going out, how about you?"
Shu Jinniao hesitated for a moment, then flew to Shiyu's shoulder, buried in the thickly wrapped scarf, only showing a pair of eyes.
Shi Yu didn't say much, just took it out.
It has been a long time since the golden bird has been so close to human beings. Looking at the eyes of the young man who is close at hand, it thinks, or just peck it away.But the warmth in the scarf made it a little reluctant to move.
Shi Yu just went to the supermarket and picked up buttery bread.After looking around, there was no one there, so he whispered:
"What flavor do you like?"
Shu Jinniao was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the young man was asking for his own opinion.Looking at the colorful packaging on the shelf, it doesn't look fancy or expensive at all.But the young man seemed to have been waiting for its answer, so he moved his body and whispered something:
"Same as you."
So Shi Yu stretched out his hand to explore the shelf just now, but he didn't expect a figure to come over suddenly, standing beside him with a slight smile, and said:
"Your bird is interesting."
Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, then, carrying two breads in his arms, without looking at the speaker, he went straight to the checkout area.
The Golden Shu bird was also startled. Although it was only for a short moment, it felt that the aura emanating from the person who spoke just now was terrifyingly powerful.
Shi Yu paid the money and walked to her convenience store without looking back.Although he couldn't tell whether it was a human or a demon just now, he didn't want to have too much interaction no matter which one it was.
If you are a troublesome person, if you see yourself talking to a bird, you may get entangled.If it is a monster in human form, most of the monsters are powerful, and if they do something evil, it will probably be more troublesome.
Wrapped in a scarf, Shi Yu returned to the convenience store, and after closing the door, he was slightly relieved.And Shu Jinniao was bored in the scarf, thinking, tonight, when the young man fell asleep, he would steal his eyes. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time.
In the evening, Shi Yu soaked milk as usual, biting butter bread and sitting in a chair watching TV.The glass window was knocked.
Shi Yu walked over and heard the voice in the afternoon before pulling away:
"I don't have a fixed place to live, I just want to stay overnight."
Shi Yu hesitated and didn't speak, but the man outside stretched out a hand:
"You should know that this is the demon seal. I can only maintain my human form, but I don't have much demon power."
It was dark outside, and Shi Yu couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, but the ink seal on the back of the man's hand was indeed the demon seal.On this seal, if it is not washed away with the blood of the sealer, it cannot be untied.
Shi Yu knocked on the window to express his consent, and then opened the door.
When the man walked in, Shi Yu could see clearly that the figure of this monster was a somewhat tall man.
The half-length hair was a little curly, and the end was tied casually with a black hanging jade headband.The robe was casually draped over his body, and a long cigarette rod was pinned to his waist.
Shi Yu was slightly dazed, for some reason he always felt as if he had seen it somewhere.
The man walked to the fireplace on his own, untied the long tobacco rod from his waist, held it with one hand, poked the golden bird that had been staring at him vigilantly before, and smiled lowly:
"This bird is really interesting."
Shi Yu tilted his head and did not speak.Sitting back on the chair, looking at the man teasing the bird with the cigarette stick, he slightly stretched out his hand to pick up the golden bird on his shoulder, and then asked:
"what's your name?"
"Su Mi." The man changed his posture, lying on his side on the floor, with one leg propped up, "What about you?"
"Shiyu."
"Shiyu... ah." The man whispered something, but didn't say anything more, just evoked an inexplicable smile, and turned around to watch the TV that Shiyu hadn't turned off.
Shi Yu also huddled in the chair, swaying slightly while reading the book.Shu Jinniao was nestled on his neck, and Shi Yu's somewhat partial and protective action just now made his heart tremble.This person—is he trying to protect himself?
But Shu Jinniao didn't have time to think too much, it stared at Su Mi not far away with his back to them.
As a human being, Shi Yu may not be able to feel that power, but as a demon, he is clearly aware of it.That is definitely not the power after sealing the demon power.What is this Su Mi's plan?
Later, Shi Yu put away his book and was going to rest. He put the golden bird on the handle of the chair, then looked at Su Mi and said:
"When you leave, close the door gently."
Su Mi knocked on the cigarette rod to show that he heard it, while Shu Jinniao huddled on the handle, keeping away from Su Mi.
In the early morning, Shujinniao pushed open the crack of the door and got into Shiyu's room.Flying to his bedside, looking at the sleeping face of the young man.As long as you peck it down, your demon power will rise to another level and you will become a great demon.
But—and then?
It was originally born out of resentment, enjoying the pleasure of revenge on human beings.Watching those greedy people step by step towards despair makes it extremely enjoyable.
But this person doesn't have those greedy looks at all, although he is cold, he is surprisingly gentle.It's like... the little boy's original appearance.
Shu Jinniao hesitated for a while, and finally jumped onto Shiyu's quilt, rubbed his exposed face, and then flew out.
It came out of Shiyu's room and saw Su Mi squinting at the door.
"What are you going to do?" The hair on Shu Jinniao's body exploded, this man was too dangerous.
"Heh," Su Mi slightly opened his eyes, the pupils of his pupils dilated very large, "I'm different from you little monsters in that I'm not interested in human flesh."
"Then why did you lie to him?"
"It's just interesting." Su Mi shook the tobacco rod, then twisted a small handful of tobacco from the pouch and put it into the pot, "You bird, you still have some friendship, so I'll give you a ride. "
Before Shu Jinniao could react, Su Mi took a puff of cigarette, and then slowly exhaled it.
Shu Jinniao only felt that he was shrouded in a large cloud of smoke, and there were endless noises around him, and finally everything fell silent.It opened its eyes and looked around, only to feel that it seemed very familiar.
Then it saw a figure that it could not forget for hundreds of years, it was the little prince.
The young master's eyes were already blind, and he was wrapped in a piece of white cloth.He was sitting in a deserted temple, holding a wooden bauble in his hand.
As the golden-washing bird flew closer, it was only then that it was carved to be a chubby bird.
The little boy held the wood carving in his palm and said in a soft voice:
"Little bird, little bird, I don't want you to spit out money, come back quickly..."
"Little bird, little bird, I am confused..."
"Little bird, where are you..."
The young master hugged the wood carving to his heart, although he didn't have any tears, he sobbed uncontrollably.
Shu Jinniao stared blankly at the dilapidated temple and the embarrassed man.I feel that my vision is a little blurry, this person, I still miss myself...
It flew over, stood on the man's shoulder, and rubbed his face.Then he bit off the gold grain tied to his ankle and placed it beside the man.
The man touched his shoulder excitedly, but there was nothing, and then he was so disappointed that he hugged the wooden bird again:
"Little bird..."
"He has also received the consequences of his crimes. Forget about your grievances. Although you have been a demon for a hundred years, you can't be considered to have done a lot of evil. You will be reincarnated in the third round of the animal road and wait for the fourth life. If you still have a destiny, go to him. " Su Mi's voice came from nowhere, and Shu Jinniao felt that the smoke around him gradually wrapped him up, and everything became blurred.
It's just that the phrase "little bird" that the man called is still echoing in its ears.
On the platform to escape the cold, Hong Shao in the Golden Pavilion meets each other without knowing the hearts of the people. A hundred years have passed, but the dignified and dignified have a good end in this world.
Su Mi put down her cigarette stick, and there was no golden bird in the house.
He pushed open the door of Shiyu's room, leaned against the door frame, and looked at the sleeping person curled up on the bed.Su Mi rubbed the fingers made of broken stones with her fingertips, stood quietly for a while, then closed the door softly, and lay down on the carpet again.
No one in this world is a lone stone. You don't believe me, but look, I'm here.
"Kunming's state offering to wash the golden bird, shaped like a sparrow, yellow in color, soft and dense, often soars over the sea... The bird often spits out gold chips like millet, and it can be cast as a utensil... This bird is afraid of frost and snow, so it builds a small room to It is called the Bihan Terrace..." - "Taiping Guangji Shujinniao"
5. Lu Shu
When Shi Yu woke up in the morning and walked out of the bedroom, he saw that the living room was empty. He looked at the wall clock, and found that it was not yet time for the delivery, and he did not change his clothes.
While the milk was hot, there was a knock on the door.He froze for a moment, thinking about why the delivery man came so early today.I pulled the scarf and wrapped it casually, and went to open the door.
Fearing that the cold air would come in too much, he only opened a crack in the door, thinking that it would be good to leave the goods at the door, and he would move in by himself later.
However, before he could open his mouth, the somewhat familiar cigarette rod came in.He shook it, as if signaling him to open the door.
Shi Yu subconsciously wanted to close the door, and agreed that he would only stay for one night. Even though he had the demon seal, he really didn't want to get too involved with such a big demon who could transform into a human form.
However, the door was blocked by Su Mi outside, and it was slightly pushed open. The hand with the seal of the demon seal on it reached in with a piece of bread and shook it a few times.
Creamy.
Shi Yu looked at the bag of bread, hesitated for a moment, and opened the door.
Su Mi walked in swaggeringly, sat on the carpet again, threw the bread to Shiyu, then lowered his head and pinched some tobacco leaves from the cigarette pouch and said:
"Human food is more unpalatable than before."
As if he didn't hear Su Mi's words, Shi Yu took out the milk from the microwave oven, sat on the chair and tore open the bag of bread, took a bite, his mouth was full of sweet and soft taste, and he squinted his eyes.
Su Mi clicked her tongue and took a sip from the fire.
Shi Yu looked at Su Mi, and threw the biscuit that had just been put aside.Su Mi received it as soon as she stretched out her hand, tore open two pieces and threw them into her mouth.I didn't say anything more.
Shi Yu doesn't smoke, but Su Mi sat there and made the room full of smoke, but Shi Yu didn't feel disgusted, on the contrary—a little bit of peace of mind?
Shi Yu couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was, it seemed like it should be so normal.Su Mi’s does not know what kind of tobacco leaves are used, it will not make people feel swaying, and has a faint woody fragrance.
"How long do you want to stay?" Shi Yu asked after eating the bread, looking at Su Mi.
"You're fine here," Su Mi lay down, "Let's stay a little longer."
Shi Yu had never seen such a reckless demon before, so he didn't know how to answer the words for a while.He just stared at Su Mi with no expression on his face.
Su Mi exhaled smoke, narrowed his eyes, and said:
"I will always maintain the human form, and I can help you."
Shi Yu looked around at his small convenience store, and then at Su Mi, his eyes were full - there is nothing you can do to help here.
Su Mi pretended not to see Shi Yu's gaze, put away the cigarette stick on her own, and then turned around, forming a tail from the back of her clothes.
It was actually a lion's tail, and it swung up and down.
"The lion is the king of all beasts, and the same is true for transforming into a demon. I can help you ward off the demon."
Shi Yu didn't pay attention to Su Mi's words, but stared carefully at the brownish-yellow lion tail with a ball of fluff at the end, his eyes lit up.
Lion equals - big cat?
Hmm... Although it's not as fluffy as a kitten, but - it seems to be good?Moreover, Su Mi looked lazy, and she shouldn't cause any trouble.
Shi Yu stood up and walked to Su Mi's side, squatted down and fiddled with the tail hanging there a few times.I felt that the hand felt good, so I said softly:
"kindness."
Su Mi turned her back to Shiyu, narrowed her eyes, and smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth.
-
A little later, the deliveryman delivered the goods that Shiyu had ordered before.
Shi Yu moved several stacked boxes to the shelf. Seeing that the delivery man had left, Su Mi also stood up lazily, picked up a box with a cigarette stick in one hand, and placed it in front of the shelf with ease.
Shi Yu glanced sideways, put the wine box that he had been struggling to move on the ground again, and picked up the much lighter box of potato chips next to it.
Seeing Shi Yu's movements, Su Mi didn't say much, and reached out to pick up the box of wine.
With the last box of potato chips left, Shi Yu staggered a bit when he lifted it up. Why is this box so much heavier than the previous ones.Frowning slightly, he put the box of potato chips at the bottom of the shelf.
"Do you want to take it apart?" Su Mi finally put down the cigarette stick in his hand, sat on a box and looked at Shi Yu and asked.
Shi Yu nodded, and then said:
"I will do it myself."
Su Mi didn't hold back, she just lay down on the carpet again, and turned on the TV.
"In recent days, many residential areas in this city have been invaded by unknown objects, but there have been no casualties or property losses. Specifically..."
Several TV stations were broadcasting this news in turn, Su Mi changed several channels and finally stopped on the opera channel.
Shi Yu turned around and continued to organize the shelves, unpacking several boxes one by one, and filling them on the shelves.When I got to the last box of potato chips, there seemed to be something in that box.
Shi Yu put down the scissors, squatted down and put his ears on the side of the box. There was a slight "dong dong" sound inside, as if something was hitting the box, but it didn't sound like a mouse scratching its claws.Shi Yu stood up, hesitating whether to call back the delivery man just now, and simply exchange the goods.
But thinking that if it was a little monster, only he could see and hear it, and it would be very troublesome to explain it.
Shi Yu suddenly thought of Su Mi outside, if he was a demon, he should be able to sense it.
So Shi Yu poked his head out from behind the shelf, and saw Su Mi lying on his side with his back facing him, and the Peony Pavilion was playing on the TV—"We are not loved in the previous life, and we have lost half of our life, so the Tao will appear in the next life. I dreamed in this life... I love to kill this day and night, and then get Luofu's dream..."
Although Shiyu has seen many monsters, this is the first time he has seen a monster who likes opera.Although Su Mi's expression could not be seen, his tail melted out again, flicking back and forth behind him, as if he was used to it.
Shi Yu walked to the living room, knelt down and grabbed the dangling tail.A lion's mane is not as soft as a cat's, but the tip of its tail is particularly easy to pinch.
Su Mi tilted her head slightly, yawned and asked:
"what happened?"
"There is something in the box." Shi Yu withdrew his hand.
Su Mi stretched, stood up, and walked towards the shelf.Shi Yu followed behind and also passed by.
"That." Shi Yu pointed to the box in the farthest corner.
Su Mi stepped forward, knelt down and knocked on the side of the box a few times with her tobacco rod, and sure enough there was another thumping sound inside.
Then he stood up, looked at Shiyu and said:
"It's just a little guy, don't hurt anyone, just open it."
Shi Yu used scissors to cut the sealant shallowly, and lifted the lid.Most of the potato chip bags inside were ripped open, and the whole box was scattered.And lying in the middle of the potato chips was a little guy that looked like a horse, but it was much smaller than an ordinary pony, about the size of two palms, round.Its head is white, with a small half of red tail trailing behind it, and its whole body is covered with tiger-like stripes, which is really beautiful.
Seeing Shiyu, the little guy seemed a little afraid of strangers. He arched his body and hid in the potato chips. Although he buried his face in it, most of his buttocks were exposed.
Shi Yu slightly staggered her body, pursed her lips and looked at Su Mi.Some unsurely spit out a word:
"Demon?"
Su Mi also looked down at the box, fiddled with the pile of potato chips with her cigarette stick.
The little guy with his head buried inside seemed to have sensed something, and he stopped hiding his head. He hugged Su Mi's tobacco rod with two small hooves, and climbed up.
Su Mi picked up the cigarette rod, and the little guy was suspended in the air, but he was not afraid, and instead let out a small cry.
The little guy's cry is like a child's singing, although there is no rhythm, it is surprisingly pleasant.
Su Mi stretched out his hand to grab its neck, and put it on his shoulder.The little thing was a little unsteady, so he simply lay on Su Mi's shoulder, squinting his eyes and rubbing against Su Mi's messy curly hair.
"It's not a monster, it's a little deer Shu." Su Mi patted the little thing's head to prevent it from sticking out its tongue to lick him. "Auspicious beasts in the Nanshan area are relatively rare these years."
Shi Yu looked curiously at the little deer Shu lying on Su Mi's shoulder, is it an auspicious beast?
Sensing Shiyu's gaze, Lu Shu seemed to make a nervous "chichi" sound, his tail stood up alertly, and a pair of round eyes stared at Shiyu. Although there was no deterrence, it was still Can feel its resistance to Shiyu.
"Lu and Shu are very timid," Su Mi explained. "Wearing their furs can make a lot of children and grandchildren. In the early years, this family was almost driven to extinction. So they are very afraid of humans."
Shi Yu nodded, although he doesn't know why many people are always looking for the happiness of a family full of children and grandchildren, but to him, family affection seems to be just a vague term.However, he understood why Xiao Lu Shu was hostile to him, so he didn't react too much, so he turned around and put the crate of potato chips into the living room, and then sat back in front of the glass window.
Su Mi patted the little deer Shu on his shoulder, and also lay back in the living room, the Peony Pavilion had already finished singing.Su Mi yawned, pulled a cushion and fell asleep.
Xiao Lu Shu also found a comfortable position, nestled beside Su Mi, curled up and narrowed his eyes.
In the afternoon, Shi Yu sat in front of the window, flipping through books at random when no guests came.Never went to the living room.It wasn't until dinner that Shi Yu stood up and poked his head into the living room. He saw Su Mi sitting cross-legged and breathing smoke. Xiao Lu Shu seemed to be very close to Su Mi, shaking his chubby body and making joyful noises. Voice.
Shi Yu hesitated for a moment, warmed up a glass of milk, opened the bread, and sat back on the chair in front of the glass window.Seeing the darkness outside, his own blurry silhouette was reflected in the glass, hugging the hot milk, and sneezed.Sure enough, it was still a bit cold at night by the window.
Before Shi Yu finished eating the bread, he looked up and saw Su Mi leaning on the shelf behind him to light a cigarette through the glass.
"Why don't you go into the house?" Su Mi exhaled a puff of smoke, and extinguished the match with sparks.
Shi Yu pursed his lips and did not speak, but just looked at Su Mi, and found that Xiao Lu Shu was not leaning on him.
"It's just a little guy who knows how to be raw, and he will be cooked if he gives you some food." Su Mi lowered his head slightly, took a breath, "The little thing is very soft to hold."
Shi Yu moved his body and put down the half-eaten bread for the time being.I found several packages of different kinds of snacks from the shelves, and then walked into the living room.
Xiaolu Shu was stuck in the potato chip box, when he heard Shiyu's footsteps, he immediately stood up vigilantly, staring at Shiyu closely.
Shi Yu didn't come any closer either, and squatted not far from Xiao Lu Shu, unpacked several packets of snacks one by one, put them on the ground, and took two steps back.
Xiaolushu looked at Shiyu, and tentatively took two steps closer. Seeing that Shiyu hadn't moved, he quickly ran over, picked up a pack of snacks, and ran back to the previous carton.
Hiding behind the cardboard box, there was a creaking sound after a while.After a while, the sound stopped, and Xiaolu Shu ran out again to take a bag back.
By the time of the third package, Xiaolu Shu was no longer so nervous, and simply squatted at the place where Shiyu was placed and started eating.After eating a few mouthfuls, he walked to the remaining two packs, tasted two mouthfuls, and let out a happy cry.
Seeing that Xiao Lu Shu ate up a pack of strawberry-flavored chestnut rice sticks, Shi Yu went back to the shelf and took another pack. He wanted to put it on the ground, but was stopped by Su Mi.Shi Yu looked at Su Mi in confusion.
Su Mi took a few sticks of corn and put them in Shi Yu's palm. When the two touched, Shi Yu felt a strange feeling welling up in his heart. It was indescribably familiar but also tinged with fear. flinched.
Su Mi didn't care, put the corn sticks in Shi Yu's hands, and stood aside to continue smoking.
Xiao Lu Shu moved his nose, and looked at Shi Yu's hand with longing eyes, standing there hesitating.And Shi Yu squatted there a little stiffly, with no expression on his face.
After a while, Xiao Lu Shu walked carefully towards Shi Yu step by step, his eyes flicked back and forth between the corn stick in Shi Yu's hand and his face.
Finally, Xiaolu Shu stood one step away from Shiyu's palm, stretched his neck, carefully picked up a piece of corn sticks in his mouth, and then ran a long distance with a "swoosh".But soon, it leaned over carefully again, and took another one in its mouth.After going back and forth a few times, Xiaolu Shu finally let go of his courage a little bit, buried his little head in Shiyu's palm and started eating.
His furry head rubbed against Shi Yu's palm, but he was still stiff, not daring to make too much movement.
Su Mi looked down, walked back to the living room, turned on the electric heater, and tapped the floor with the cigarette rod.
Xiao Lu Shu let out a cry and ran over.After running for two steps, he turned his head and saw that Shi Yu was still squatting there, and rubbed back, biting Shi Yu's cuff with his mouth and pulling it, as if signaling him to go together.
Shi Yu froze for a moment, then took the remaining half of the pack of snacks, walked to the electric heater and sat down.Xiao Lu Shu also quickly leaned over, clasping Shi Yu's hand eagerly, looking greedy.
Su Mi lay on the other side, smiled lowly and said:
"It's similar."
Shi Yu didn't quite understand what Su Mi meant, and raised his head slightly.
Su Mi pointed to the remaining half of the bread with the cigarette stick, then turned over, took a book casually, and said nothing.
Shi Yu looked at Xiao Lu Shu, who was already full of food, leaning against his side with his eyes squinted and humming softly. Today's stove seemed to be a little overheated, and he felt his skin was slightly hot.
6. Lu Shu

When Shiyu got up the next day, Su Mi was no longer in the living room.He searched around and found Xiao Lu Shu sleeping in the box with half of his stomach turned over.
It seems that what he ate last night has not been fully digested, Xiaolu Shu's stomach is still bulging.Shi Yu softly put the lid back on the box, then opened the door wrapped in a scarf.
The alley was already narrow, and cars couldn't get in. When two bicycles were going towards each other, they had to stop slightly and stagger their bodies.But fortunately, there are two old residential areas around, and Shiyu's convenience store business is not bleak, at least there is no problem in maintaining life.
After the Spring Festival, Shiyu has lived here for three years.Although in the past, some inhuman things would often come to him, and many little monsters stayed in his living room, but recently, I don't know if it is his illusion, it seems that there are more inhuman things.
Shiyu has never liked to have too much contact with monsters, but he still likes furry things, which are soft to the touch, especially in winter, they are extraordinarily comfortable.
While he was dazed, Su Mi turned in from the alley with two plastic bags, saw Shi Yu standing at the door, stretched out his hand, and said:
"Waiting for me?"
Shi Yu didn't answer, but looked at the two plastic bags, which contained soy milk and pancakes.
"I've eaten." Su Mi walked into the room very naturally, "I brought some for you and the little one."
Shi Yu followed into the house and asked, "Are you rich?"
Su Mi put the things on the table, and then took out a handful of change from the inner pocket of his clothes, all of which were a few yuan: "I still have some savings for hundreds of years, except for buying tobacco, and these coins."
Shi Yu looked at the handful of money and probably didn't add up to thousands, and suddenly felt that the big monster in front of him was a little pitiful, and he had only saved so much for hundreds of years.
Su Mi walked up to the cardboard box and tapped the outer shell with the tobacco rod, there was a rustling sound from inside, and Xiao Lu Shu opened the lid, revealing a small head.
Shi Yu felt the soy milk and pancakes in the bag were still hot.Putting his share aside first, he took out a small bowl, poured out some soy milk, and put it next to Xiaolu Shu.
"This... can it be eaten?" Shi Yu hesitated holding a small half of pancake.
"It's better than eating the ones on your shelf." Su Mi stretched out the cigarette stick out the door and knocked off the ash, "Your human lives are also quite tenacious."
Shi Yu pretended not to hear, and put a small half of pancake on a plate, which was also placed on the ground.Sitting back on the chair, he also bit into pancakes.
Xiaolu Shu was completely unguarded towards Shiyu. After eating and drinking, he swayed to Shiyu's feet and spun around, contentedly barking twice. The clear and bright voice was like a song, very pleasant to the ear.Then Xiao Lu Shu nestled next to Su Mi's side, fiddled with the long tobacco rod beside Su Mi with his little hoof.
Su Mi stretched out his hand to lift Xiao Lu Shu away a bit, filled the smoke pot with tobacco, and lit it on fire. Xiao Lu Shu seemed very excited, and his tail twitched behind him, and he squatted beside Su Mi and yelled twice.
"It's strange to see Lu Shu here. This little guy was either kidnapped and escaped halfway, or lost." Su Mi looked at Shi Yu, "What are you going to do?"
Shi Yu was slightly taken aback when asked, what should I do?If it was not entrusted by others, he would not take the initiative to help.Especially looking for these inhuman things, most of them will cause trouble.Moreover, he was not good at communicating with people, and he didn't know how to do this matter of finding people.
"If its people can smell its scent, they will naturally look for it." Seeing Shi Yu's hesitant look, Su Mi said, "Just take it out for a walk."
Shi Yu nodded, simply turned over the sign on the glass window, and then found a backpack from the cabinet, stuffed with two packs of corn sticks, put the backpack on the ground, and opened the zipper.
Fawn Shu moved his nose and plunged into the backpack, kicking his four little hooves a few times to bury his whole body.
Shi Yu picked up the bag and quickly zipped it up.
Su Mi at the side smiled when he saw this coherent movement, then stood up, pointed to the back of his hand, and asked Shi Yu:
"Do you have gloves?"
Shi Yu guessed that Su Mi should go out with him, but the demon seal on the back of his hand is a bit obvious, if it is seen by someone who knows something about ghosts and ghosts in a crowded place, it may cause trouble.So he rummaged through the cabinet, found a pair of woolen gloves and handed them to Su Mi.
Su Mi put it on her hand twice, feeling a little tight, but it's not a problem to cover the demon seal.
Shi Yu put the backpack on her chest and pulled the zipper
