There are always monsters coming to eat

Shi Yu looked at Su Mi and didn't quite understand his intentions, but he didn't say much, and turned around to open the gate.And Su Mi also stood up and stood beside Shi Yu.
As soon as the door was opened, a person stepped in. Su Mi stretched out his hand to pick up the cigarette stick, pressed it on the person's shoulder, and said:
"Enter someone's house and report your name."
Shi Yu looked at Su Mi curiously, not knowing what he wanted to do, so he took a step back and looked at the man in front of him.
The man has a square face and is dressed in black. At first glance, he looks as rough as Zou Wu, but this person gives people a gloomy feeling.
"I just want to get back what I dropped," the man said.
Su Mi retracted the cigarette rod, lit the cigarette, tilted her head slightly and took a sip:
"The things are in the house, but it's the time of year, and no one wants to invite fierce beasts to come to the door."
"Heh," the man's face was obviously a bit disdainful, and he squinted at the demon seal on Su Mi's hand, "It's just a demon who can transform people, you don't know where you are when I dominate the world."
Su Mi raised her eyes, but there was no anger on her face, she just knocked on the cigarette pot:
"Winning all directions? I only know that Dan Zhu fought again and again, and finally he could not end well."
"You monster..." Ge clenched his hands tightly, and his fist was about to fall.
Su Mi raised her hand, and just lit the hot smoke pot on the back of Ge's hand:
"The two demon exorcists are not far away. If I hadn't used this smoke to deceive my eyes, you would have been captured long ago."
Ge withdrew his hand, gritted his teeth and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"
"I heard that you have been copying scriptures and praising blessings in Lingming Temple for hundreds of years. If you have written a scripture here, I will return the shield to you."
"It's just a piece of scripture, so what's the difficulty." Ge's face gradually softened, "You must keep your word, otherwise..."
"Of course I won't break my promise." Su Mi took a step back and let Ke enter the room.
Standing aside, Shi Yu closed the gate, and then looked at Su Mi.
Su Mi met Shang Shiyu's eyes, and reached out to touch Shiyu's hair:
"It's just a matter of praying for blessings. I hope that someone will give you meat to eat in the coming year."
Going into the room, Xun saw him gritted his teeth and yelled twice.Su Mi stepped forward and picked up Xie, wrapping it in his arms:
"There's a table and pens over there."
Ge strode to sit at the table, Su Mi lay back on the carpet and continued to press the phone, Shi Yu also picked up the book and planned to continue reading.But within 10 minutes, Ke stood up and said:
"Is there any scripture here?"
"No." Su Mi yawned.
"Then how do I copy it?" Ge said impatiently.
"I only told you to write, but never told you to copy." Su Mi turned over, "Pray for a hundred years and don't even remember the scriptures."
"You..." Kui strode up to Su Mi, reaching out to grab him by the collar and pull him up.
Su Mi squinted her eyes, raised her hand and grabbed Ke's wrist, exerted a little force and saw that Ke's expression was distorted.
"Why don't you want to pray for blessings?" Shi Yu asked as he sat aside and put down his book.
Ke shook off his hands and sat cross-legged on the carpet:
"How could he be willing to be locked up in such a crappy place every day?"
"But if you make a mistake, you have to pay back, isn't it right?" Shi Yu held his chin in one hand and looked at Ke.
"I..." Ge turned his head away from Shiyu's eyes, and said harshly, "I threw myself into the sea to apologize for my sins before I was alive, and I prayed for a hundred years after my death, so I have already repaid enough."
"I'm not reconciled. I was just naive back then. My father gave the world to Shun without saying a word, and then exiled me to that barbaric land. I just wanted to get back my things, so I started to fight."
"Is it good to win the world?" Shi Yu asked a little puzzled. He also read a lot of books. It seemed that everyone wanted to win the world, but most of them lamented that the palace and government were annoying after they got it.
"Of course." Ge's voice became high, "Thousands of people admire and sit on mountains and rivers, that is a happy life."
"and then?"
"What then?" Ge looked at Shiyu.
"What do you want to do after winning the world?"
"I become the ruler of the world, and the subjects and vassal states will send me whatever I want, and someone will do everything I want to do for me. I don't need to work hard, and I can enjoy the world without going out of the palace."
"Tsk." Su Mi lit a cigarette and flicked her tail, without commenting.
Shi Yu thought for a while, and then said, "Do you want to be an otaku?"
"What is an otaku." Ge was slightly taken aback, he had never heard of this word.
"Don't go out every day, just stay in the house." Shi Yu explained after hesitating.
Ke originally wanted to refute something, but the description of Shiyu didn't sound like a compliment, and it was extremely superficial.But it seems that there is no point to refute.Finally, he had to say angrily:
"You grassroots will never understand the benefits of the world."
"Grassmen don't understand the benefits, so naturally they don't understand the hardships," Su Mi sat up, "but you haven't figured out why you lost in the first place after a hundred years in the world."
"If my lord gives me the world, nothing will happen to me. Shun only made some contributions in controlling the floods. If I give it to me, I will not be worse than him."
"The demeanor of a superior person should naturally be superior to that of others, but his heart is lower than that of a grasshopper." Su Mi took a puff of smoke and exhaled slowly, "I have also seen the human world for a hundred years, and the emperor of the prosperous age is indeed immersed in his own world. , but their world is the people and the country.”
"Coveting gold, silver and beauties for fun, if you are a second son prince, you are romantic. If you are an emperor, you are fatuous."
"I didn't win the world in the end, if I win..." Ge retorted.
"Praying for the people, if you are unwilling, how can you become a benevolent king?"
"Even if I am guilty, I have prayed for a hundred years and I have paid it off long ago. Human beings are too aggressive, so I have to be detained here. If I turn into a beast after death, it proves that I am not an ordinary person, even the sky chooses me After staying in the world, why do you even listen to the words of a few monster exterminations?"
"Someone's merits and virtues are consummated after death. Some people stay in the world after death to pay off their sins. What you want to pay back is not your own peace of mind, but the compensation for the souls who died because of you."
"Hundreds of years have passed and you still don't understand the scriptures, and you don't recognize the mistakes of the year. You just stand there every day to get your own peace of mind, and when will you be kind to the world."
"Besides," Su Mi breathed out the last puff of smoke, and said in a low voice, "There are some mistakes in this world that are not clear. If you are wrong, you are wrong. What you do afterwards is nothing more than making up for it. But in reality, you I still don’t know the life of those creatures who died because of you.”
"You turned into a beast after death, not because of your nobility, but because of the resentment and hatred of those people who gathered you and left you in the world. You should be born with apology and remorse. It is not a natural choice but a common choice. This is you cause and effect."
Su Mi put away the cigarette stick, stood up slowly, took the paper with one or two characters written on it, and put it in front of Ke.
"The contents of the scriptures and Buddhist texts are nothing more than black and white letters. Praying for blessings is what you think about. Now that you have answered, you must finish writing."
After taking the paper, the tense momentum had dissipated a lot, but his brows were still tightly frowned.After hesitating for a while, he picked up the pen and put it down, writing down line by line, he actually wrote a lot.
Shi Yu sat aside, turned his head to look at Su Mi who was lying back on the carpet again.Su Mi's tail stretched out again, flicking behind her back, her messy hair was really not that pretty.
He has seen many monsters, and he knows good and evil, but he has never heard them before. Those long-ago stories are full of regret and resignation, but in the end they are all over.
I can't say why, Shi Yu always feels that Su Mi is different from the people or monsters he has met before.But I feel that he should be like this for granted, and there is no violation.
There are too many truths in this world to explain clearly, but Su Mi can always explain one or two things.
Until the sky was getting dark, Ke finally stopped writing and stood up:
"I'm going back."
"En." Su Mi waved his hand without looking back, "The two monster catchers will bring you back the shield later."
"You..." It was only then that Ke realized that the shield was not with Su Mi. He wanted to choke, but quickly gave up, and said mockingly, "It's fine, it's fine if you don't want this mana."
He let out a long breath and continued:
"It's the first time in the past hundred years that I feel so at ease. Since I transformed into a beast, I've always heard the cries of children and the mourning songs of women. Today, these sounds have all disappeared."
"Maybe it's because I really haven't redeemed my sins, otherwise I wouldn't be able to relax in this moment of peace."
"I'm leaving now." Kui walked towards the door, and as the door gradually opened, he turned into a black feather bird, with his hands as his feet, then turned his head and flew away with a cry.
Shi Yu got up to close the door, Su Mi also stood up, and said:
"Those two are still outside."
Shi Yu stopped, turned around and looked at Su Mi.
"There is still some food to order, why don't we have dinner together."
"En." Shi Yu responded softly.
Su Mi walked to the door, tapped the cigarette pot three times, and then shouted:
"Half-head demon extermination master, come and eat."
Following Su Mi's voice, Tong Guo rushed to the door:
"Who are you calling half-baked! What about Ke!"
"Tsk." Su Mi put her hands in her hands and turned around without saying a word.
Tong Guo bared her teeth and claws and was about to rush forward, but was held back by Bai Zigui.
"Excuse me." Bai Zigui put an arm around Tong Guo, then looked at Shi Yu and nodded slightly.
Shi Yu looked at his small convenience store, where Su Mi was standing on one side with his tail wagging, Tong Guo at the door bared his teeth and claws, and Bai Zigui greeted him, suddenly felt something cracked in his heart.
This year, unexpectedly... it's different.

"Where's Ge?" Tong Guo sat down on the carpet angrily, and asked Su Mi.
"I'm back in the temple, I won't run around anymore." Su Mi also lay down on the carpet and flicked her tail, "The demon exorcist now, tsk."
"You..." Tong Guo had a tendency to explode, but just stood up but was pushed back by Bai Zigui.
"Thank you for this help," Bai Zigui looked at Shi Yu, "If you need anything, we will do our best."
Shi Yu thought for a moment, then said:
"Can you cook?"
"Huh?" Tong Guo also turned around and looked at Shi Yu.
"There are dishes." Shi Yu pointed to the kitchen. Although there was no expression on his face, his tone seemed serious.
"If you don't dislike it, I..." Bai Zigui was about to answer, but was interrupted by Tong Guo.
"What are you doing?" Tong Guo pouted, a little unwillingly, "I'll do it."
When Bai Zigui heard what Tong Guo said, a smile appeared on his serious face. No matter how old he was, he was always like a little milk wolf protecting food.
Shi Yu showed Tong Guo where to put the vegetables and meat, then went back to the living room and turned on the TV.Su Mi also played the game as if no one else was there, while Bai Zigui sat upright on one side of the carpet, kept glancing at Su Mi, but didn't speak.
When Tong Guo fried a few dishes and brought them out, he saw the dead and strange scene in the living room, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.He knew Baizigui didn't talk much, and Shi Yu seemed to be a talkative master, but the guy lying there pretended to be deep.
But when Tong Guo approached and saw Su Mi seriously holding a mobile phone covered in rhinestones and playing matchmaker, he felt that the whole person was not good, rhinestones?Xiaoxiaole?Did he and Bai Zigui guess wrong? They must have misunderstood this guy's strength. This is actually a stupid, bad and special lion monster! !
"Hey, get up and get out of the way," Tong Guo dissatisfiedly pushed the back of his foot against Su Mi who was paralyzed there, and then looked at Baizigui and Shiyu, "It's time to eat."
A square table is not big at all, and it is very crowded for four people to sit.Tong Guo put down the dishes and walked to the side of Baizigui, Shi Yu found a side and sat down, Su Mi sat up lazily, and moved to the side of Shi Yu.Xie also smelled the aroma of the rice, and squatted next to the table as soon as the food was served.
"How often can you see inhuman things in a year?" Tong Guo was not polite, added a chopstick dish, and asked Shi Yu while eating.
"You can see it." Shi Yu added a piece of meat, and found that Tong Guo's cooking seemed to taste better than Zou Wu.
"Every day?" Tong Guo choked a little, and said in surprise, "Without the help of a magician?"
"Well, is there a difference between yin and yang eyes?" Shi Yu thought that people with yin and yang eyes were all the same, but felt a little puzzled seeing Tong Guo's surprised look.
"Of course." Tong Guo put down his chopsticks, pulled Bai Zigui's hand and turned it over, showing his palm, "Our two families can be regarded as a family of exorcising demons and improving Fengshui, and most of the family members have opened their eyes. But Many people can only see non-human things on Ching Ming Ghost Festival or some dark days, in order to be able to see these things at any time, many of them have to use these seals."
Shi Yu stretched out his head to take a look, and there was a strange line drawn on Bai Zigui's palm.
"However, this thing lasts for a short time, and consumes a lot of energy for the exorcist himself, so he will not draw unless he has received a job." Tong Guo stretched out his hand and said proudly, "But I don't need to draw this, I have been seeing these things since I was a child, our Tong family can finally overwhelm their family, hahaha."
"Tsk." Su Mi picked up a piece of meat and threw it into the Shiyu bowl.
"You stupid lion..." Tong Guo was about to stand up, but Bai Zigui pulled him back.
"Is there someone in your family who has opened Yin-Yang eyes?" Bai Zigui looked at Shi Yu and asked.
"I'm an orphan." Shi Yu took another bite of the meat, and it was really delicious.
"Sorry..." Bai Zigui felt that his question was a bit abrupt, and even Tong Guo sat down quietly.
"It's okay." Shi Yu has never felt that having no family has any impact on him. Rather, he finds it unimaginable to have a family.
"Then would you like to learn some techniques of exorcising demons?" Baizi Guizheng asked, since Shiyu had no relatives but had such a high talent, it would be a blessing for his family to be able to inherit from the Bai family.In recent years, the power of Baijia has been weakening. In their generation, there is no one who can see inhuman things without the help of external forces.
Tong Guo looked sideways at Bai Zigui and knew what he was thinking.Although he was somewhat reluctant, he also knew that Baizigui didn't want to just watch Baijia decline, so he kept silent.
"Why do you want to get rid of the demon?" Shi Yu looked at Bai Zigui.
"To save you from being bullied by some stupid lions." Tong Guo knocked off the piece of meat that Su Mi just added with a chopstick, and scooped it up into his own bowl, "And what an exorcist is so powerful, it's much better than opening a convenience store .”
"Yaoye...it's pretty good." Shi Yu glanced at Su Mi from the corner of his eye.
"You were deceived by your appearance," Tong Guo snorted. "Most monsters in this world are born out of resentment or desire. Even if they practice for a hundred years, they still have evil thoughts in their hearts as long as they haven't reached the immortal way."
"Where's that person?" Shi Yu met Tong Guo's eyes.
"What's wrong with people?"
"Don't people have evil thoughts?"
"There are people too..." Tong Guo was asked and didn't know how to answer, "But... it's different anyway. People are people, and demons are demons. They can't be compared."
Shi Yu didn't ask any more questions, and continued to eat with vegetables.Su Mi sat aside and squinted her eyes, but said nothing.
After dinner, Tong Guo and Bai Zigui were about to leave. Although Ke had already gone back, they were still not at ease and wanted to go back to guard.
"Baizigui's home is very good at eliminating witchcraft, you really don't want to learn it." Tong Guo asked Shi Yu persistently before leaving.
Shi Yu shook his head.
"Anyway, we will definitely come to you," Tong Guo pursed his lips, "in case the stupid lion bullies you."
"Bring meat?" Shi Yu tilted his head.
Tong Guo rolled her eyes and said angrily, "It depends on your mood."
Shi Yu pursed her lips, and looked at Su Mi with bright eyes.
Su Mi lit a cigarette: "It's really right to ask Qu to pray for you."
"What?" Tong Guo watched Su Mi and Tong Guo play riddles, always feeling a bad premonition.
"Don't ask half-baked demon extermination masters," Su Mi let out a puff of smoke, "If you don't go back, you'll regret it and run away, so don't come to us."
"I'm not half-baked!" Tong Guo said.
"Tsk." Su Mi flicked her tail, looking down at him deliberately.
Bai Zigui pulled Tong Guo, who was about to jump out to fight Su Mi, back behind him, and nodded slightly:
"Thank you both this time."
Then he looked at Shiyu:
"However, if you change your mind, you can come to me at will. You can also keep yourself safe by learning how to eliminate demons."
Shi Yu nodded, and then watched the two of them leave.
-
At night, Shiyu had fallen asleep, so Su Mi stood up and walked out of the gate, walked to the entrance of the alley, lit a cigarette and squinted his eyes.Then several spells gradually appeared.
"Oh, these exorcists..." Su Mi raised his hand, and a few spells flew to his hand, "Human beings are still as troublesome as before."
He brushed off his robe, jumped up, and disappeared into the night, leaving only a few wisps of white smoke behind.
-
Bai Zigui felt that there was a change in the barrier outside, and looked at Tong Guo beside him, who was sleeping soundly.So he stood up softly, put on a coat, and went out the door.
As soon as he left the door, a few spells flew towards him, Bai Zigui raised his hand to catch it, calmed down a little, and saw that not far away, it was Su Mi who was lazily standing there with a smoking pot.
"You really are not an ordinary demon." Bai Zigui put down his hands and walked a little closer to Su Mi.
"You monster extermination masters have always used these little tricks of temptation for so many years." Su Mi tilted her head and got angry, and took a sip.
"What are you?"
"The descendants of hundreds of families can't even guess this," Su Mi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Besides, what am I, and what is it that hinders you?"
"If it is harmful to others, I will naturally remove you with my own hands."
"You are as boring as your ancestors. There are thousands of creatures in this world, and you humans are not the only ones. After all, you are just a group of timid and arrogant guys who only want to get out of the aliens."
"Birth and death compete with each other and natural selection, we can't wait to let these monsters mess up the world."
"Tsk, that's why your ancestors from the hundred families have been seeking the Tao for thousands of years and have not become immortals." Su Mi exhaled a puff of smoke, and looked at Bai Zigui with a serious face.
"Who are you?" Bai Zigui's voice was also a bit cold.
"It won't harm you, nor will it help you." Su Mi lowered her eyes, and twisted another pinch of tobacco leaves.
Baizigui sensed Su Mi's power at first, but felt that it was unexpectedly strong.But he couldn't tell what it was.It wasn't until the real contact in the daytime that I felt that this was definitely not the power of ordinary monsters, but more inclined to the fairy art they had been pursuing for a long time.
Although I had some guesses in my heart, I felt that it was far from the original imagination.
Of the nine sons born to the dragon, only Suan Ni has the most amiable temperament.
But with Su Mi's appearance, his personality is not considered gentle and polite, and he has no sense of protection and comfort.It's more like a villain who stays out of the matter and has no scruples.
"Then why are you helping us today?" Bai Zigui saw that Su Mi didn't want to reveal his identity, so he changed the question.
"That's not to help you guys," Su Mi said in a low voice, and then looked at Bai Zigui, "The half-baked guy can't get rid of demons and cooks, and it's delicious. If I come here in the future, I don't mind using some good cigarettes. Don't come looking for me and Shiyu about the monster. Not everyone in this world wants to protect you humans."
"Also," Su Mi raised his hand and a beam of light landed on Baizigui's right hand, "Don't use these little tricks to try in the future, it's unlucky to put the demon formation at the door of someone's house."
As the light disappeared, Bai Zigui only felt a pain in his right hand.As the name suggests, the monster-inducing array is a formation that attracts monsters. It is placed at the entrance of the alley to see if Su Mi can find and crack it, and secondly, if it really attracts monsters, Shiyu will definitely ask them for help if he can't get rid of them.It may be easier to persuade him to enter Baijia at that time.
"It will disappear in three days."
Bai Zigui looked at Su Mi, although Bai Zigui was still not sure if he was Su Mi, but even if he wasn't the man in front of him, he was definitely not an ordinary person.And the tone of his voice seems to have overlap with the ancestors of hundreds of families, it only hurts for three days, it is no longer considered a heavy hand.
So Bai Zigui nodded slightly, took a look at Su Mi and left.
Su Mi stood in the courtyard, exhaling smoke slowly, he didn't want to help these demon exorcists, but just thought about the past.Danzhu labored the common people and sailed on land, and later recruited soldiers to make a living. He used to see it.It's just that at that time, he didn't do his duty to protect the people.
As far as he is concerned, thousands of sentient beings all have their own destiny, whether human beings are noble or demons, they are all chosen by themselves.Danzhu's tyranny is just the result of human greed and desire, and he has nothing to do with the result.
It wasn't until later that he realized that maybe he was wrong.It is indeed not wrong to not intervene in the affairs of the human world, and it is not his fault that he did not prevent human beings from fighting their own wars. What he did wrong was indifference.
He may not help, but he cannot ignore it.It's just that he didn't understand this truth until a long time later.
There are thousands of things in this world, and sages still cannot know everything.But if you live for a long time, you will gradually understand everything.
Su Mi touched the gravel ring subconsciously, and stood there for a long time.
Then he walked to the eaves of the main hall, raised the tobacco rod and shook it twice, a wisp of white smoke flew down from the ridge beast on the main ridge of the main hall, and got into the smoke pot.
Su Mi took a breath, with a smile in her eyes.
I really don't want to protect this world, but if you are here, it doesn't matter if you go a few more times.
-
The next day Shiyu got up and went to the living room, Su Mi was still sleeping on the carpet, but it seemed... a little different from the past.
——A pair of lion ears appeared on the top of Su Mi's head, and it would vibrate a few times with the slight snoring.
Shi Yu's eyes lit up, he stepped forward softly, knelt down, and reached out to touch it.There is a circle of fluff on the lion's ears, and the ear bones are also very soft, which feels very good when kneaded.
It turns out that making a wish in a temple can really come true.Shi Yu thought to himself, unconsciously touched a few more hands.
Shi Yu didn't stand up until his feet were numb from squatting, and went to the shelf to get bread.
And the moment Shi Yu turned around, Su Mi also opened his eyes, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.There are so many wishes in this world that even the gods cannot hear them all.But your voice, even if it is buried in the dust in the busy city, how can I be willing to miss it.
There is a bird in the cabinet mountain, its shape is like a bird with a human hand, and its sound is like a numb, so it is called a bird. —— "Shan Hai Jing"

13. Lancaihe
After the seventh day, most people have to start working again, and the streets gradually become lively.
Shi Yu was sitting by the glass window after replenishing the goods in the morning. Maybe it was the first day of work after the holiday. Some shops were not open yet, and there were more people shopping nearby than usual.The day started in the morning, and the guests never stopped.
Finally, the Spring Festival Gala was no longer repeated on TV, and Su Mi was also very satisfied watching TV.In the morning, when he was helping Shiyu move the goods, he even took a bag of ham sausage and put it beside him. Xun kept wagging his tail and squatting beside him, and stopped biting the stall.And looking at the figure... This little thing seems to be a little fatter than before.
In the evening, Shi Yu calculated his income for the day, took out 50 yuan, walked to the living room and put it in front of Su Mi.
"A reward for me?" Su Mi took the money and glanced at Shi Yu.
"Buy a couple of stir-fried vegetables across the street." Zou Wu had finished eating the food that Zou Wu had brought over before. Shi Yu is generally unwilling to go out to buy food deliberately, but if there is someone who can run errands...
"What do you want to eat?" Su Mi asked as she stood up, put the money in her pocket, and put on her gloves.
"Meat." Shi Yu said without thinking.
Su Mi stepped on the shoes, and said with some teasing, "Those who don't know think you are transformed from a lion."
Shi Yu waited for Su Mi to leave and then sat back by the window. At this time, fewer people came to buy things.Shi Yu felt that Su Mi would not come back for a while, so he took the book on the side and flipped through it.
"Boss, do you have any chewing gum?" A woman in the uniform of a nearby company knocked on the window.
Shi Yu took a can from the shelf and opened the glass:
"only this."
"How much?" the woman said while flipping through her pockets.
"twelve."
"Strange..." The woman searched for a long time but couldn't find her wallet, and murmured, "Where is my wallet?"
"Girl," suddenly a man in a ragged blue shirt also stood in front of the glass window, "This is yours."
The woman raised her head and subconsciously took a step back when she saw the man in front of her.
Not only was the man's clothes shabby, but he also had a pair of clappers hanging on his wrist, and one of his feet was bare and the other was wearing cotton boots.No matter how you look at it, you look like a beggar along the street.
The man was smiling, his hair was long enough to cover half of his face, and he held a lady's wallet in his hand.
"Yes...it's mine, thank you," the woman pinched the wallet between two fingers, took out a 20 yuan bill from it, and put it on the table, "Boss, don't need to look for it. Do you have a plastic bag?"
Shi Yu pulled a bag and handed it to the woman.
The woman reached for the chewing gum and put it in her purse, while she threw the wallet into a plastic bag and walked away without looking back.
The man in the ragged blue coat didn't feel embarrassed or annoyed when he saw the woman's behavior, but put one arm on the table and looked at Shiyu:
"Can I come in and sit down?"
Shi Yu thought that Xun was still in the living room, although he looked like a dog, the scales and tiger paws on his body were still too abrupt.Then some hesitated.
"It's fine if it's inconvenient. The palace of the great emperor in the world is not easy to build, and the holes made by mice are everywhere."
Shi Yu turned to look at the sleepy Xie, and said to the man:
"wait a moment."
He went to the living room and put the little pink dress on Xi, and looked through the big bag that Zou Wu brought, which contained four small shoes for Xi, and put it on as well.
In this way, it looks no different from a domestic dog.
Shi Yu hugged Xun into his arms, opened the door, and raised his voice a little and shouted:
"All right."
The man in the blue robe walked to the door, and Shi Yu saw his whole body clearly.There are six black wooden decorations on his belt, and a rope is tied at the back of his clothes, and some copper coins of the old days are strung here and there.
Seeing his bare feet, Shi Yu found a pair of slippers for him from the door.But the man only took one and put it on the bare foot outside, while the other foot took off the shoe and walked in barefoot.
Shi Yu didn't say much, walked to the glass window, turned the sign upside down, walked back to the living room, and sat opposite the man with Xun in his arms.
Xun also woke up a little bit this time, yawned and got his head out of Shiyu's arms.Seeing a stranger, a pair of round eyes stared at the man, looking at him curiously.
"You little darling is rather strange." The man said.
Shi Yu hugged Xun into his arms: "It was fostered by others."
"Being able to entrust this rare little darling to you should be a bosom friend."
Shi Yu pursed her lips and said nothing, now that she was sitting closer, Shi Yu began to look at the man's appearance.
The man pulled his hair back after entering the door, exposing his face.Much younger than expected, although his body is tattered, it doesn't give people a greasy and dirty feeling.
The man looked about 30 years old, and his eyes were slightly bent, making people feel that he was always smiling.
"Have you opened your yin and yang eyes?" The man asked after looking at Shiyu for a long time.
Shi Yu looked up at the man, nodded but didn't say much.Judging from Xun's lack of reaction, even if the person in front of him is not a human being, he should not be a beast or a monster.
So Shi Yu asked:
"who are you?"
The man leaned back slightly, humming:
"Tage Lan Caihe, the world can't be changed. Under Lan Caihe, I'm lucky to get some immortality."
Shi Yu thought about it, Bai Jiu also became immortal after attaining immortality, and he didn't know what the person in front of him was before attaining enlightenment... So Shi Yu tilted his head and asked:
"Are you originally a human..."
"People are things, life is death, it's over." Lan Caihe shook his head and beat the clapper on his body, humming.
Shi Yu felt that the man in front of him should be a human being, because in his impression, monsters would not speak such difficult words, so he sat aside with some lack of interest.
"Would you like me to watch your luck?" Lan Yi tapped the table with his fingers.
Shi Yu shook his head, he has never been interested in these things.Even if he knew what the fate would be, he didn't want to change anything, so for him, life would not change in the slightest.
"He is also a free and easy person." Lan Caihe swayed, resting his head on the table with one hand, "I am a witty person, and life and death are not in vain. Lan Caihe, look at the high towers rising and falling, what is there to care about in the life of a person with such little things."
"Suoran took off his dusty clothes, jumped up and became immortal. In fact, that's what happened. But after living for a long time, I feel boring."
Shi Yu listened to Lan Caihe talking to himself over there, and sat aside and listened quietly.
"Walk through this world again, and I don't even recognize it anymore, but it's even more boring."
"What's interesting?" Shi Yu looked at Lan Caihe and asked.
"Interesting..." Lan Caihe thought for a moment, then chuckled and said, "In the past, people said I was quite interesting."
Shi Yu lowered his head and touched Xi's small head, ignoring Lan Caihe's words.
When Lan Caihe was about to say something more, there was a knock on the door, and Shi Yu stood up to open the door.
Su Mi was standing at the door with three boxes of vegetables, saw Shi Yu open the door and handed him the vegetables, leaned down while taking off his shoes and said:
"A guest coming?"
"En..." Shi Yu replied in a low voice, and glanced at the three boxes of dishes. The top box was baby dishes in soup, but when he saw the two boxes below were spicy fried pork slices and braised pork ribs, his eyes lit up instantly lit up.
Su Mi entered the room, saw Lan Caihe occupying his carpet, clicked his tongue softly, then took off his coat, and sat down at the table.
Seeing Su Mi, Lan Caihe was slightly surprised, then smiled, and said meaningfully:
"Lion demon..."
"Tsk," Su Mi flicked her tail, "a beggar."
Lan Caihe was not annoyed, Shi Yu just took chopsticks and bowls from the kitchen and sat down at the table.
"Thank you for the hospitality." Lan Caihe took the chopsticks and reached out to pick up the braised pork ribs.
Su Mi took a quick step, picked up the box of pork ribs, and put it beside Shiyu's bowl.Then he picked a piece and put it in his own bowl.
"This year, there will be no bones to freeze to death, but there will be bones to starve to death." Lan Caihe retracted his chopsticks, looked at Shi Yu and said.
Shi Yu raised his head and pushed the box of baby vegetables in soup towards Lan Caihe.
Seeing Shi Yu's actions, Su Mi's eyes became more smiling, and the little guy was more enlightened.
-
After eating, Su Mi leaned on the table and turned on the TV and lit a cigarette, while Shi Yu also sat on the chair and watched the content on the TV.Lan Caihe watched along curiously.
"Why do people have to be obsessed with love." Lan Caihe watched the [-] o'clock TV series, "The most boring and painful things in this world all come from the word love."
"Why?" Shi Yu asked, turning his head.
"No love and no hate, no expectations and nothing to lose. There are so many right and wrong in this world, and there are millions of people. If you don't stick to one, everything is yours."
"I still remember those years when I was singing in the south of the smoke and willows, singing on the board, and they would give me some copper coins when they were happy, and I would hang them behind me and drop them all the way. I don’t want to make any excuses, just go to a restaurant at night and shake out the copper coins, and sing to the moon after drinking.”
"I have seen the beauties of prostitutes, but I have also heard the bitter songs of their trustworthy queens, and those lovers who go boating hand in hand are finally separated from the flames of war. Tell me, what's so good about this human love."
Shi Yu hugged her knees and shook her body slightly:
"Then... have you never liked anyone else?"
Lan Caihe was stunned for a moment, a little speechless, then turned his head slightly, and said:
"What's so good about trivia in love, how can I ask for trouble."
Shi Yu didn't ask any more questions, and continued to watch the eighth girl on TV.
Shi Yu looked at Su Mi and didn't quite understand his intentions, but he didn't say much, and turned around to open the gate.And Su Mi also stood up and stood beside Shi Yu.
As soon as the door was opened, a person stepped in. Su Mi stretched out his hand to pick up the cigarette stick, pressed it on the person's shoulder, and said:
"Enter someone's house and report your name."
Shi Yu looked at Su Mi curiously, not knowing what he wanted to do, so he took a step back and looked at the man in front of him.
The man has a square face and is dressed in black. At first glance, he looks as rough as Zou Wu, but this person gives people a gloomy feeling.
"I just want to get back what I dropped," the man said.
Su Mi retracted the cigarette rod, lit the cigarette, tilted her head slightly and took a sip:
"The things are in the house, but it's the time of year, and no one wants to invite fierce beasts to come to the door."
"Heh," the man's face was obviously a bit disdainful, and he squinted at the demon seal on Su Mi's hand, "It's just a demon who can transform people, you don't know where you are when I dominate the world."
Su Mi raised her eyes, but there was no anger on her face, she just knocked on the cigarette pot:
"Winning all directions? I only know that Dan Zhu fought again and again, and finally he could not end well."
"You monster..." Ge clenched his hands tightly, and his fist was about to fall.
Su Mi raised her hand, and just lit the hot smoke pot on the back of Ge's hand:
"The two demon exorcists are not far away. If I hadn't used this smoke to deceive my eyes, you would have been captured long ago."
Ge withdrew his hand, gritted his teeth and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"
"I heard that you have been copying scriptures and praising blessings in Lingming Temple for hundreds of years. If you have written a scripture here, I will return the shield to you."
"It's just a piece of scripture, so what's the difficulty." Ge's face gradually softened, "You must keep your word, otherwise..."
"Of course I won't break my promise." Su Mi took a step back and let Ke enter the room.
Standing aside, Shi Yu closed the gate, and then looked at Su Mi.
Su Mi met Shang Shiyu's eyes, and reached out to touch Shiyu's hair:
"It's just a matter of praying for blessings. I hope that someone will give you meat to eat in the coming year."
Going into the room, Xun saw him gritted his teeth and yelled twice.Su Mi stepped forward and picked up Xie, wrapping it in his arms:
"There's a table and pens over there."
Ge strode to sit at the table, Su Mi lay back on the carpet and continued to press the phone, Shi Yu also picked up the book and planned to continue reading.But within 10 minutes, Ke stood up and said:
"Is there any scripture here?"
"No." Su Mi yawned.
"Then how do I copy it?" Ge said impatiently.
"I only told you to write, but never told you to copy." Su Mi turned over, "Pray for a hundred years and don't even remember the scriptures."
"You..." Kui strode up to Su Mi, reaching out to grab him by the collar and pull him up.
Su Mi squinted her eyes, raised her hand and grabbed Ke's wrist, exerted a little force and saw that Ke's expression was distorted.
"Why don't you want to pray for blessings?" Shi Yu asked as he sat aside and put down his book.
Ke shook off his hands and sat cross-legged on the carpet:
"How could he be willing to be locked up in such a crappy place every day?"
"But if you make a mistake, you have to pay back, isn't it right?" Shi Yu held his chin in one hand and looked at Ke.
"I..." Ge turned his head away from Shiyu's eyes, and said harshly, "I threw myself into the sea to apologize for my sins before I was alive, and I prayed for a hundred years after my death, so I have already repaid enough."
"I'm not reconciled. I was just naive back then. My father gave the world to Shun without saying a word, and then exiled me to that barbaric land. I just wanted to get back my things, so I started to fight."
"Is it good to win the world?" Shi Yu asked a little puzzled. He also read a lot of books. It seemed that everyone wanted to win the world, but most of them lamented that the palace and government were annoying after they got it.
"Of course." Ge's voice became high, "Thousands of people admire and sit on mountains and rivers, that is a happy life."
"and then?"
"What then?" Ge looked at Shiyu.
"What do you want to do after winning the world?"
"I become the ruler of the world, and the subjects and vassal states will send me whatever I want, and someone will do everything I want to do for me. I don't need to work hard, and I can enjoy the world without going out of the palace."
"Tsk." Su Mi lit a cigarette and flicked her tail, without commenting.
Shi Yu thought for a while, and then said, "Do you want to be an otaku?"
"What is an otaku." Ge was slightly taken aback, he had never heard of this word.
"Don't go out every day, just stay in the house." Shi Yu explained after hesitating.
Ke originally wanted to refute something, but the description of Shiyu didn't sound like a compliment, and it was extremely superficial.But it seems that there is no point to refute.Finally, he had to say angrily:
"You grassroots will never understand the benefits of the world."
"Grassmen don't understand the benefits, so naturally they don't understand the hardships," Su Mi sat up, "but you haven't figured out why you lost in the first place after a hundred years in the world."
"If my lord gives me the world, nothing will happen to me. Shun only made some contributions in controlling the floods. If I give it to me, I will not be worse than him."
"The demeanor of a superior person should naturally be superior to that of others, but his heart is lower than that of a grasshopper." Su Mi took a puff of smoke and exhaled slowly, "I have also seen the human world for a hundred years, and the emperor of the prosperous age is indeed immersed in his own world. , but their world is the people and the country.”
"Coveting gold, silver and beauties for fun, if you are a second son prince, you are romantic. If you are an emperor, you are fatuous."
"I didn't win the world in the end, if I win..." Ge retorted.
"Praying for the people, if you are unwilling, how can you become a benevolent king?"
"Even if I am guilty, I have prayed for a hundred years and I have paid it off long ago. Human beings are too aggressive, so I have to be detained here. If I turn into a beast after death, it proves that I am not an ordinary person, even the sky chooses me After staying in the world, why do you even listen to the words of a few monster exterminations?"
"Someone's merits and virtues are consummated after death. Some people stay in the world after death to pay off their sins. What you want to pay back is not your own peace of mind, but the compensation for the souls who died because of you."
"Hundreds of years have passed and you still don't understand the scriptures, and you don't recognize the mistakes of the year. You just stand there every day to get your own peace of mind, and when will you be kind to the world."
"Besides," Su Mi breathed out the last puff of smoke, and said in a low voice, "There are some mistakes in this world that are not clear. If you are wrong, you are wrong. What you do afterwards is nothing more than making up for it. But in reality, you I still don’t know the life of those creatures who died because of you.”
"You turned into a beast after death, not because of your nobility, but because of the resentment and hatred of those people who gathered you and left you in the world. You should be born with apology and remorse. It is not a natural choice but a common choice. This is you cause and effect."
Su Mi put away the cigarette stick, stood up slowly, took the paper with one or two characters written on it, and put it in front of Ke.
"The contents of the scriptures and Buddhist texts are nothing more than black and white letters. Praying for blessings is what you think about. Now that you have answered, you must finish writing."
After taking the paper, the tense momentum had dissipated a lot, but his brows were still tightly frowned.After hesitating for a while, he picked up the pen and put it down, writing down line by line, he actually wrote a lot.
Shi Yu sat aside, turned his head to look at Su Mi who was lying back on the carpet again.Su Mi's tail stretched out again, flicking behind her back, her messy hair was really not that pretty.
He has seen many monsters, and he knows good and evil, but he has never heard them before. Those long-ago stories are full of regret and resignation, but in the end they are all over.
I can't say why, Shi Yu always feels that Su Mi is different from the people or monsters he has met before.But I feel that he should be like this for granted, and there is no violation.
There are too many truths in this world to explain clearly, but Su Mi can always explain one or two things.
Until the sky was getting dark, Ke finally stopped writing and stood up:
"I'm going back."
"En." Su Mi waved his hand without looking back, "The two monster catchers will bring you back the shield later."
"You..." It was only then that Ke realized that the shield was not with Su Mi. He wanted to choke, but quickly gave up, and said mockingly, "It's fine, it's fine if you don't want this mana."
He let out a long breath and continued:
"It's the first time in the past hundred years that I feel so at ease. Since I transformed into a beast, I've always heard the cries of children and the mourning songs of women. Today, these sounds have all disappeared."
"Maybe it's because I really haven't redeemed my sins, otherwise I wouldn't be able to relax in this moment of peace."
"I'm leaving now." Kui walked towards the door, and as the door gradually opened, he turned into a black feather bird, with his hands as his feet, then turned his head and flew away with a cry.
Shi Yu got up to close the door, Su Mi also stood up, and said:
"Those two are still outside."
Shi Yu stopped, turned around and looked at Su Mi.
"There is still some food to order, why don't we have dinner together."
"En." Shi Yu responded softly.
Su Mi walked to the door, tapped the cigarette pot three times, and then shouted:
"Half-head demon extermination master, come and eat."
Following Su Mi's voice, Tong Guo rushed to the door:
"Who are you calling half-baked! What about Ke!"
"Tsk." Su Mi put her hands in her hands and turned around without saying a word.
Tong Guo bared her teeth and claws and was about to rush forward, but was held back by Bai Zigui.
"Excuse me." Bai Zigui put an arm around Tong Guo, then looked at Shi Yu and nodded slightly.
Shi Yu looked at his small convenience store, where Su Mi was standing on one side with his tail wagging, Tong Guo at the door bared his teeth and claws, and Bai Zigui greeted him, suddenly felt something cracked in his heart.
This year, unexpectedly... it's different.
12.
-
"Where's Ge?" Tong Guo sat down on the carpet angrily, and asked Su Mi.
"I'm back in the temple, I won't run around anymore." Su Mi also lay down on the carpet and flicked her tail, "The demon exorcist now, tsk."
"You..." Tong Guo had a tendency to explode, but just stood up but was pushed back by Bai Zigui.
"Thank you for this help," Bai Zigui looked at Shi Yu, "If you need anything, we will do our best."
Shi Yu thought for a moment, then said:
"Can you cook?"
"Huh?" Tong Guo also turned around and looked at Shi Yu.
"There are dishes." Shi Yu pointed to the kitchen. Although there was no expression on his face, his tone seemed serious.
"If you don't dislike it, I..." Bai Zigui was about to answer, but was interrupted by Tong Guo.
"What are you doing?" Tong Guo pouted, a little unwillingly, "I'll do it."
When Bai Zigui heard what Tong Guo said, a smile appeared on his serious face. No matter how old he was, he was always like a little milk wolf protecting food.
Shi Yu showed Tong Guo where to put the vegetables and meat, then went back to the living room and turned on the TV.Su Mi also played the game as if no one else was there, while Bai Zigui sat upright on one side of the carpet, kept glancing at Su Mi, but didn't speak.
When Tong Guo fried a few dishes and brought them out, he saw the dead and strange scene in the living room, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.He knew Baizigui didn't talk much, and Shi Yu seemed to be a talkative master, but the guy lying there pretended to be deep.
But when Tong Guo approached and saw Su Mi seriously holding a mobile phone covered in rhinestones and playing matchmaker, he felt that the whole person was not good, rhinestones?Xiaoxiaole?Did he and Bai Zigui guess wrong? They must have misunderstood this guy's strength. This is actually a stupid, bad and special lion monster! !
"Hey, get up and get out of the way," Tong Guo dissatisfiedly pushed the back of his foot against Su Mi who was paralyzed there, and then looked at Baizigui and Shiyu, "It's time to eat."
A square table is not big at all, and it is very crowded for four people to sit.Tong Guo put down the dishes and walked to the side of Baizigui, Shi Yu found a side and sat down, Su Mi sat up lazily, and moved to the side of Shi Yu.Xie also smelled the aroma of the rice, and squatted next to the table as soon as the food was served.
"How often can you see inhuman things in a year?" Tong Guo was not polite, added a chopstick dish, and asked Shi Yu while eating.
"You can see it." Shi Yu added a piece of meat, and found that Tong Guo's cooking seemed to taste better than Zou Wu.
"Every day?" Tong Guo choked a little, and said in surprise, "Without the help of a magician?"
"Well, is there a difference between yin and yang eyes?" Shi Yu thought that people with yin and yang eyes were all the same, but felt a little puzzled seeing Tong Guo's surprised look.
"Of course." Tong Guo put down his chopsticks, pulled Bai Zigui's hand and turned it over, showing his palm, "Our two families can be regarded as a family of exorcising demons and improving Fengshui, and most of the family members have opened their eyes. But Many people can only see non-human things on Ching Ming Ghost Festival or some dark days, in order to be able to see these things at any time, many of them have to use these seals."
Shi Yu stretched out his head to take a look, and there was a strange line drawn on Bai Zigui's palm.
"However, this thing lasts for a short time, and consumes a lot of energy for the exorcist himself, so he will not draw unless he has received a job." Tong Guo stretched out his hand and said proudly, "But I don't need to draw this, I have been seeing these things since I was a child, our Tong family can finally overwhelm their family, hahaha."
"Tsk." Su Mi picked up a piece of meat and threw it into the Shiyu bowl.
"You stupid lion..." Tong Guo was about to stand up, but Bai Zigui pulled him back.
"Is there someone in your family who has opened Yin-Yang eyes?" Bai Zigui looked at Shi Yu and asked.
"I'm an orphan." Shi Yu took another bite of the meat, and it was really delicious.
"Sorry..." Bai Zigui felt that his question was a bit abrupt, and even Tong Guo sat down quietly.
"It's okay." Shi Yu has never felt that having no family has any impact on him. Rather, he finds it unimaginable to have a family.
"Then would you like to learn some techniques of exorcising demons?" Baizi Guizheng asked, since Shiyu had no relatives but had such a high talent, it would be a blessing for his family to be able to inherit from the Bai family.In recent years, the power of Baijia has been weakening. In their generation, there is no one who can see inhuman things without the help of external forces.
Tong Guo looked sideways at Bai Zigui and knew what he was thinking.Although he was somewhat reluctant, he also knew that Baizigui didn't want to just watch Baijia decline, so he kept silent.
"Why do you want to get rid of the demon?" Shi Yu looked at Bai Zigui.
"To save you from being bullied by some stupid lions." Tong Guo knocked off the piece of meat that Su Mi just added with a chopstick, and scooped it up into his own bowl, "And what an exorcist is so powerful, it's much better than opening a convenience store .”
"Yaoye...it's pretty good." Shi Yu glanced at Su Mi from the corner of his eye.
"You were deceived by your appearance," Tong Guo snorted. "Most monsters in this world are born out of resentment or desire. Even if they practice for a hundred years, they still have evil thoughts in their hearts as long as they haven't reached the immortal way."
"Where's that person?" Shi Yu met Tong Guo's eyes.
"What's wrong with people?"
"Don't people have evil thoughts?"
"There are people too..." Tong Guo was asked and didn't know how to answer, "But... it's different anyway. People are people, and demons are demons. They can't be compared."
Shi Yu didn't ask any more questions, and continued to eat with vegetables.Su Mi sat aside and squinted her eyes, but said nothing.
After dinner, Tong Guo and Bai Zigui were about to leave. Although Ke had already gone back, they were still not at ease and wanted to go back to guard.
"Baizigui's home is very good at eliminating witchcraft, you really don't want to learn it." Tong Guo asked Shi Yu persistently before leaving.
Shi Yu shook his head.
"Anyway, we will definitely come to you," Tong Guo pursed his lips, "in case the stupid lion bullies you."
"Bring meat?" Shi Yu tilted his head.
Tong Guo rolled her eyes and said angrily, "It depends on your mood."
Shi Yu pursed her lips, and looked at Su Mi with bright eyes.
Su Mi lit a cigarette: "It's really right to ask Qu to pray for you."
"What?" Tong Guo watched Su Mi and Tong Guo play riddles, always feeling a bad premonition.
"Don't ask half-baked demon extermination masters," Su Mi let out a puff of smoke, "If you don't go back, you'll regret it and run away, so don't come to us."
"I'm not half-baked!" Tong Guo said.
"Tsk." Su Mi flicked her tail, looking down at him deliberately.
Bai Zigui pulled Tong Guo, who was about to jump out to fight Su Mi, back behind him, and nodded slightly:
"Thank you both this time."
Then he looked at Shiyu:
"However, if you change your mind, you can come to me at will. You can also keep yourself safe by learning how to eliminate demons."
Shi Yu nodded, and then watched the two of them leave.
-
At night, Shiyu had fallen asleep, so Su Mi stood up and walked out of the gate, walked to the entrance of the alley, lit a cigarette and squinted his eyes.Then several spells gradually appeared.
"Oh, these exorcists..." Su Mi raised his hand, and a few spells flew to his hand, "Human beings are still as troublesome as before."
He brushed off his robe, jumped up, and disappeared into the night, leaving only a few wisps of white smoke behind.
-
Bai Zigui felt that there was a change in the barrier outside, and looked at Tong Guo beside him, who was sleeping soundly.So he stood up softly, put on a coat, and went out the door.
As soon as he left the door, a few spells flew towards him, Bai Zigui raised his hand to catch it, calmed down a little, and saw that not far away, it was Su Mi who was lazily standing there with a smoking pot.
"You really are not an ordinary demon." Bai Zigui put down his hands and walked a little closer to Su Mi.
"You monster extermination masters have always used these little tricks of temptation for so many years." Su Mi tilted her head and got angry, and took a sip.
"What are you?"
"The descendants of hundreds of families can't even guess this," Su Mi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Besides, what am I, and what is it that hinders you?"
"If it is harmful to others, I will naturally remove you with my own hands."
"You are as boring as your ancestors. There are thousands of creatures in this world, and you humans are not the only ones. After all, you are just a group of timid and arrogant guys who only want to get out of the aliens."
"Birth and death compete with each other and natural selection, we can't wait to let these monsters mess up the world."
"Tsk, that's why your ancestors from the hundred families have been seeking the Tao for thousands of years and have not become immortals." Su Mi exhaled a puff of smoke, and looked at Bai Zigui with a serious face.
"Who are you?" Bai Zigui's voice was also a bit cold.
"It won't harm you, nor will it help you." Su Mi lowered her eyes, and twisted another pinch of tobacco leaves.
Baizigui sensed Su Mi's power at first, but felt that it was unexpectedly strong.But he couldn't tell what it was.It wasn't until the real contact in the daytime that I felt that this was definitely not the power of ordinary monsters, but more inclined to the fairy art they had been pursuing for a long time.
Although I had some guesses in my heart, I felt that it was far from the original imagination.
Of the nine sons born to the dragon, only Suan Ni has the most amiable temperament.
But with Su Mi's appearance, his personality is not considered gentle and polite, and he has no sense of protection and comfort.It's more like a villain who stays out of the matter and has no scruples.
"Then why are you helping us today?" Bai Zigui saw that Su Mi didn't want to reveal his identity, so he changed the question.
"That's not to help you guys," Su Mi said in a low voice, and then looked at Bai Zigui, "The half-baked guy can't get rid of demons and cooks, and it's delicious. If I come here in the future, I don't mind using some good cigarettes. Don't come looking for me and Shiyu about the monster. Not everyone in this world wants to protect you humans."
"Also," Su Mi raised his hand and a beam of light landed on Baizigui's right hand, "Don't use these little tricks to try in the future, it's unlucky to put the demon formation at the door of someone's house."
As the light disappeared, Bai Zigui only felt a pain in his right hand.As the name suggests, the monster-inducing array is a formation that attracts monsters. It is placed at the entrance of the alley to see if Su Mi can find and crack it, and secondly, if it really attracts monsters, Shiyu will definitely ask them for help if he can't get rid of them.It may be easier to persuade him to enter Baijia at that time.
"It will disappear in three days."
Bai Zigui looked at Su Mi, although Bai Zigui was still not sure if he was Su Mi, but even if he wasn't the man in front of him, he was definitely not an ordinary person.And the tone of his voice seems to have overlap with the ancestors of hundreds of families, it only hurts for three days, it is no longer considered a heavy hand.
So Bai Zigui nodded slightly, took a look at Su Mi and left.
Su Mi stood in the courtyard, exhaling smoke slowly, he didn't want to help these demon exorcists, but just thought about the past.Danzhu labored the common people and sailed on land, and later recruited soldiers to make a living. He used to see it.It's just that at that time, he didn't do his duty to protect the people.
As far as he is concerned, thousands of sentient beings all have their own destiny, whether human beings are noble or demons, they are all chosen by themselves.Danzhu's tyranny is just the result of human greed and desire, and he has nothing to do with the result.
It wasn't until later that he realized that maybe he was wrong.It is indeed not wrong to not intervene in the affairs of the human world, and it is not his fault that he did not prevent human beings from fighting their own wars. What he did wrong was indifference.
He may not help, but he cannot ignore it.It's just that he didn't understand this truth until a long time later.
There are thousands of things in this world, and sages still cannot know everything.But if you live for a long time, you will gradually understand everything.
Su Mi touched the gravel ring subconsciously, and stood there for a long time.
Then he walked to the eaves of the main hall, raised the tobacco rod and shook it twice, a wisp of white smoke flew down from the ridge beast on the main ridge of the main hall, and got into the smoke pot.
Su Mi took a breath, with a smile in her eyes.
I really don't want to protect this world, but if you are here, it doesn't matter if you go a few more times.
-
The next day Shiyu got up and went to the living room, Su Mi was still sleeping on the carpet, but it seemed... a little different from the past.
——A pair of lion ears appeared on the top of Su Mi's head, and it would vibrate a few times with the slight snoring.
Shi Yu's eyes lit up, he stepped forward softly, knelt down, and reached out to touch it.There is a circle of fluff on the lion's ears, and the ear bones are also very soft, which feels very good when kneaded.
It turns out that making a wish in a temple can really come true.Shi Yu thought to himself, unconsciously touched a few more hands.
Shi Yu didn't stand up until his feet were numb from squatting, and went to the shelf to get bread.
And the moment Shi Yu turned around, Su Mi also opened his eyes, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.There are so many wishes in this world that even the gods cannot hear them all.But your voice, even if it is buried in the dust in the busy city, how can I be willing to miss it.
There is a bird in the cabinet mountain, its shape is like a bird with a human hand, and its sound is like a numb, so it is called a bird. —— "Shan Hai Jing"

13. Lancaihe
After the seventh day, most people have to start working again, and the streets gradually become lively.
Shi Yu was sitting by the glass window after replenishing the goods in the morning. Maybe it was the first day of work after the holiday. Some shops were not open yet, and there were more people shopping nearby than usual.The day started in the morning, and the guests never stopped.
Finally, the Spring Festival Gala was no longer repeated on TV, and Su Mi was also very satisfied watching TV.In the morning, when he was helping Shiyu move the goods, he even took a bag of ham sausage and put it beside him. Xun kept wagging his tail and squatting beside him, and stopped biting the stall.And looking at the figure... This little thing seems to be a little fatter than before.
In the evening, Shi Yu calculated his income for the day, took out 50 yuan, walked to the living room and put it in front of Su Mi.
"A reward for me?" Su Mi took the money and glanced at Shi Yu.
"Buy a couple of stir-fried vegetables across the street." Zou Wu had finished eating the food that Zou Wu had brought over before. Shi Yu is generally unwilling to go out to buy food deliberately, but if there is someone who can run errands...
"What do you want to eat?" Su Mi asked as she stood up, put the money in her pocket, and put on her gloves.
"Meat." Shi Yu said without thinking.
Su Mi stepped on the shoes, and said with some teasing, "Those who don't know think you are transformed from a lion."
Shi Yu waited for Su Mi to leave and then sat back by the window. At this time, fewer people came to buy things.Shi Yu felt that Su Mi would not come back for a while, so he took the book on the side and flipped through it.
"Boss, do you have any chewing gum?" A woman in the uniform of a nearby company knocked on the window.
Shi Yu took a can from the shelf and opened the glass:
"only this."
"How much?" the woman said while flipping through her pockets.
"twelve."
"Strange..." The woman searched for a long time but couldn't find her wallet, and murmured, "Where is my wallet?"
"Girl," suddenly a man in a ragged blue shirt also stood in front of the glass window, "This is yours."
The woman raised her head and subconsciously took a step back when she saw the man in front of her.
Not only was the man's clothes shabby, but he also had a pair of clappers hanging on his wrist, and one of his feet was bare and the other was wearing cotton boots.No matter how you look at it, you look like a beggar along the street.
The man was smiling, his hair was long enough to cover half of his face, and he held a lady's wallet in his hand.
"Yes...it's mine, thank you," the woman pinched the wallet between two fingers, took out a 20 yuan bill from it, and put it on the table, "Boss, don't need to look for it. Do you have a plastic bag?"
Shi Yu pulled a bag and handed it to the woman.
The woman reached for the chewing gum and put it in her purse, while she threw the wallet into a plastic bag and walked away without looking back.
The man in the ragged blue coat didn't feel embarrassed or annoyed when he saw the woman's behavior, but put one arm on the table and looked at Shiyu:
"Can I come in and sit down?"
Shi Yu thought that Xun was still in the living room, although he looked like a dog, the scales and tiger paws on his body were still too abrupt.Then some hesitated.
"It's fine if it's inconvenient. The palace of the great emperor in the world is not easy to build, and the holes made by mice are everywhere."
Shi Yu turned to look at the sleepy Xie, and said to the man:
"wait a moment."
He went to the living room and put the little pink dress on Xi, and looked through the big bag that Zou Wu brought, which contained four small shoes for Xi, and put it on as well.
In this way, it looks no different from a domestic dog.
Shi Yu hugged Xun into his arms, opened the door, and raised his voice a little and shouted:
"All right."
The man in the blue robe walked to the door, and Shi Yu saw his whole body clearly.There are six black wooden decorations on his belt, and a rope is tied at the back of his clothes, and some copper coins of the old days are strung here and there.
Seeing his bare feet, Shi Yu found a pair of slippers for him from the door.But the man only took one and put it on the bare foot outside, while the other foot took off the shoe and walked in barefoot.
Shi Yu didn't say much, walked to the glass window, turned the sign upside down, walked back to the living room, and sat opposite the man with Xun in his arms.
Xun also woke up a little bit this time, yawned and got his head out of Shiyu's arms.Seeing a stranger, a pair of round eyes stared at the man, looking at him curiously.
"You little darling is rather strange." The man said.
Shi Yu hugged Xun into his arms: "It was fostered by others."
"Being able to entrust this rare little darling to you should be a bosom friend."
Shi Yu pursed her lips and said nothing, now that she was sitting closer, Shi Yu began to look at the man's appearance.
The man pulled his hair back after entering the door, exposing his face.Much younger than expected, although his body is tattered, it doesn't give people a greasy and dirty feeling.
The man looked about 30 years old, and his eyes were slightly bent, making people feel that he was always smiling.
"Have you opened your yin and yang eyes?" The man asked after looking at Shiyu for a long time.
Shi Yu looked up at the man, nodded but didn't say much.Judging from Xun's lack of reaction, even if the person in front of him is not a human being, he should not be a beast or a monster.
So Shi Yu asked:
"who are you?"
The man leaned back slightly, humming:
"Tage Lan Caihe, the world can't be changed. Under Lan Caihe, I'm lucky to get some immortality."
Shi Yu thought about it, Bai Jiu also became immortal after attaining immortality, and he didn't know what the person in front of him was before attaining enlightenment... So Shi Yu tilted his head and asked:
"Are you originally a human..."
"People are things, life is death, it's over." Lan Caihe shook his head and beat the clapper on his body, humming.
Shi Yu felt that the man in front of him should be a human being, because in his impression, monsters would not speak such difficult words, so he sat aside with some lack of interest.
"Would you like me to watch your luck?" Lan Yi tapped the table with his fingers.
Shi Yu shook his head, he has never been interested in these things.Even if he knew what the fate would be, he didn't want to change anything, so for him, life would not change in the slightest.
"He is also a free and easy person." Lan Caihe swayed, resting his head on the table with one hand, "I am a witty person, and life and death are not in vain. Lan Caihe, look at the high towers rising and falling, what is there to care about in the life of a person with such little things."
"Suoran took off his dusty clothes, jumped up and became immortal. In fact, that's what happened. But after living for a long time, I feel boring."
Shi Yu listened to Lan Caihe talking to himself over there, and sat aside and listened quietly.
"Walk through this world again, and I don't even recognize it anymore, but it's even more boring."
"What's interesting?" Shi Yu looked at Lan Caihe and asked.
"Interesting..." Lan Caihe thought for a moment, then chuckled and said, "In the past, people said I was quite interesting."
Shi Yu lowered his head and touched Xi's small head, ignoring Lan Caihe's words.
When Lan Caihe was about to say something more, there was a knock on the door, and Shi Yu stood up to open the door.
Su Mi was standing at the door with three boxes of vegetables, saw Shi Yu open the door and handed him the vegetables, leaned down while taking off his shoes and said:
"A guest coming?"
"En..." Shi Yu replied in a low voice, and glanced at the three boxes of dishes. The top box was baby dishes in soup, but when he saw the two boxes below were spicy fried pork slices and braised pork ribs, his eyes lit up instantly lit up.
Su Mi entered the room, saw Lan Caihe occupying his carpet, clicked his tongue softly, then took off his coat, and sat down at the table.
Seeing Su Mi, Lan Caihe was slightly surprised, then smiled, and said meaningfully:
"Lion demon..."
"Tsk," Su Mi flicked her tail, "a beggar."
Lan Caihe was not annoyed, Shi Yu just took chopsticks and bowls from the kitchen and sat down at the table.
"Thank you for the hospitality." Lan Caihe took the chopsticks and reached out to pick up the braised pork ribs.
Su Mi took a quick step, picked up the box of pork ribs, and put it beside Shiyu's bowl.Then he picked a piece and put it in his own bowl.
"This year, there will be no bones to freeze to death, but there will be bones to starve to death." Lan Caihe retracted his chopsticks, looked at Shi Yu and said.
Shi Yu raised his head and pushed the box of baby vegetables in soup towards Lan Caihe.
Seeing Shi Yu's actions, Su Mi's eyes became more smiling, and the little guy was more enlightened.

After eating, Su Mi leaned on the table and turned on the TV and lit a cigarette, while Shi Yu also sat on the chair and watched the content on the TV.Lan Caihe watched along curiously.
"Why do people have to be obsessed with love." Lan Caihe watched the [-] o'clock TV series, "The most boring and painful things in this world all come from the word love."
"Why?" Shi Yu asked, turning his head.
"No love and no hate, no expectations and nothing to lose. There are so many right and wrong in this world, and there are millions of people. If you don't stick to one, everything is yours."
"I still remember those years when I was singing in the south of the smoke and willows, singing on the board, and they would give me some copper coins when they were happy, and I would hang them behind me and drop them all the way. I don’t want to make any excuses, just go to a restaurant at night and shake out the copper coins, and sing to the moon after drinking.”
"I have seen the beauties of prostitutes, but I have also heard the bitter songs of their trustworthy queens, and those lovers who go boating hand in hand are finally separated from the flames of war. Tell me, what's so good about this human love."
Shi Yu hugged her knees and shook her body slightly:
"Then... have you never liked anyone else?"
Lan Caihe was stunned for a moment, a little speechless, then turned his head slightly, and said:
"What's so good about trivia in love, how can I ask for trouble."
Shi Yu didn't ask any more questions, and continued to watch the eighth girl on TV.
