The years when I was an interpreter for monsters

"Go down." Ao Zheng studied for a while, but couldn't see anything bright, so he put down the mirror.

The bronze mirror swayed slightly, and returned to silence again.However, not long after they left the seventh floor, in the windless room, the mirror suddenly shook as if someone had moved it, emitting a yellowish light, as if a figure flashed past the mirror.

The two demons and one person stayed on the second floor.

Except for this inexplicable bronze mirror, there are no other problems in the tower for the time being. Compared with living in the wilderness, it can be used as a temporary residence.The door on the first floor is not blocked, so it can be used as a living room, and the second floor is more suitable for rest.

Ao Zheng stayed to decorate the room, while the black cat took Yan Shiyu to find a place to deal with the rabbit.

"The lake where the little fish lives seems to be nearby. Let me carry you there." The black cat turned into a human and said, "The old dragon is not here. I can't count when I run. You may not be able to sit still."

Yan Shiyu suddenly felt a pain in his old waist, and hurriedly said: "No, no need, I also want to recognize the surrounding environment, let's go over there."

"Aren't you hungry?"

"It's not too bad to walk." The young man immediately put on an energetic look.

"Okay." The black cat changed back to its original form, jumped onto his shoulder, and pointed its paw, "Go this way."

Yan Shi said: "..."

Between us, is there only a relationship between carrying and being carried?

Walking all the way, the young man noticed that the environment here is indeed very similar to the earth.He doesn't know many animals and plants, but he can still recognize things like pine trees, phoenix trees, rabbits, and pheasants.

It's not just the familiarity of the species, it's more of a feeling.It's like walking from one city in Yanhuang to another, different but not completely strange.

It's almost as if someone created another world in the image of the earth.

If it wasn't for the extra cat demon on his shoulder, it wouldn't feel out of place to say that he went to the mountains for a picnic on weekends.

Yan Shiyu suddenly stopped and said in surprise, "It's Hawthorn!"

Hearing the words, the black cat gasped, and said with gritty teeth, "Do you like it?"

"It's okay. Although I prefer strawberries, cherries, and durians." Yan Shiyu spread his hands, "but now, as long as I have fruits to eat, I'm happy."

"Durian? What is that?" The black cat felt that the name sounded very strange.

"It's a kind," Yan Shiyu said with a smile, "It smells like feces, but tastes sweet and soft."

"Poop?!" The black cat looked shocked, "Why do you humans always like to eat weird things?"

Yan Shiyu looked up at the sky, and swallowed back the words in his mouth: Guess, why is the cat killed by curiosity?

Probably because of the contrast with the durian, the black cat thinks the sour hawthorn is really pleasing to the eye.He flicked his tail, kicked up the tree with his hind legs, showed his sharp claws, and dropped the red fruits all over the ground.

"Ah, that's enough." Yan Shiyu patted the full sweater pocket, "It's a waste if you can't take it away."

The black cat jumped back onto the young man's shoulder.

Yan Shiyu opened his mouth to thank: "Little... uh, cat... not..."

But for a while, I didn't know what to call the black cat.

It's called "Xiao Hei", and he is a big monster who has lived for hundreds of years. It seems to be too alienated to be called "Master Cat Demon".

The black cat seemed to have guessed the reason why the young man hesitated, and said indifferently: "It's okay, just call him Xiao Hei."

After finishing speaking, he licked his paw and continued: "You humans have passed through thousands of years, and the way of naming cats is still so old-fashioned."

Yan Shiyu raised a question mark.

"The black cat is called Xiaohei, the white cat is called Xiaobai, Sanhua is called Huahua, and the orange cat is either Xiaoju or Dahuang..."

Yan Shi said: "..."

"Am I wrong?" The black cat turned around and asked.

"...No." Yan Shiyu continued to walk towards the lake. He touched the hawthorn in his pocket and said, "Xiao Hei seems to understand human beings very well, and he is also very friendly to human beings."

"Didn't I tell you?"

"Ok?"

"I was originally a cat raised by humans, but after I died, I got the help of the old dragon to cultivate into a spirit." The black cat recalled.

Yan Shiyu was a little surprised: "I always thought that Xiao Hei was born as a monster."

"Do you remember your master?" Yan Shiyu asked curiously.

"Master?" the black cat yawned. "It's just a shit shoveler. It's been 350 years. How can I remember it?"

You do remember exactly how many years have passed.Yan Shiyu complained in his heart.But the black cat didn't want to mention it, and he didn't need to break the casserole and ask the end.

After walking for about 10 minutes, Yan Shiyu finally saw the lake that the black cat was talking about.

The surface of the lake is very large, as clear as a mirror, with sparkling waves.The surrounding tree shadows are projected on the water surface, embedded with the blue sky and white clouds to form a peaceful painting, as if there is another world under the water waves.

"It's so beautiful." The young man touched the water and sighed, "It's so clear, it's the first time I've seen such lake water."

The black cat jumped to the ground, stepped back, and stretched out its paws: "Give me the rabbit, and I will handle it."

"Okay." Yan Shiyu threw the rabbit over, and took out the hawthorn in his pocket to clean it.

After washing a few, he couldn't wait to take a bite.The sweetness is not enough, and it is a bit sour, but when the taste in the mouth fades, I can't help but want to eat two more bites.

Candied haws.Yan Shiyu squeezed the hawthorn in his hand, thinking seriously about the question: how is the rock candy made?Is the raw material sugar?How is sugar made?It seems to be squeezed out of some plant?Beets?What do beets look like?Would sugar cane work too?Wait, shouldn't sugar made from cane be called sucrose?

Forget it, let's look for honeycombs, dipped in honey sounds good too.

Yan Shiyu sighed: It would be great if he could choose to bring one thing before crossing.

He must take Qian Kong with him.

The young man was thinking wildly, and accidentally bumped into a hawthorn piled up on the ground, and the fruit rolled into the water.He frantically picked it up, but still dropped a lot.

Yan Shiyu was a little frustrated.

It's not as exaggerated as the collapse, but a little bit, but it makes people lose their spirits.

Yan Shiyu knew that he shouldn't be like this. After all, since he came here, Jinlong and Heimao have been taking care of him, which is already very lucky.

only……

The water of the lake suddenly swayed and rippled in circles.A beautiful woman with a black bun emerged from the water. She was wearing a blue gown with a stand collar and slanted front, and there was no trace of water on her clothes.

"Did you drop it?" She moved her fin-like and crystal-clear ears, holding the bright red fruit in her white hands, and asked softly.

Her voice was very pleasant, clear and clear, like pearls dropped on a jade plate.

The young man opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Mei, the mermaid? Xiao Hei, there are mermaids here!"

"The little fish is a mermaid." The black cat corrected, threw the rabbit with its skin and internal organs removed, and greeted the woman familiarly: "I will help you find out if there is any sea area here after I finish my work today."

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao Hei. Don't worry, I'm not too sad in this lake." Xiaoyu swayed his tail, and sneaked a few glances at Yan Shiyu, "This young master is the one you mentioned yesterday. "

"Ah."

Xiaoyu put the hawthorn in Yan Shiyu's hand, and smiled shyly, "This is the first time I've seen a human being. Do all human beings look as good-looking as you?"

As one of the few young and handsome teachers in the university, Yan Shiyu has been molested countless times, so thick-skinned that he has long been immune.But when Xiao Yuren asked him this question, he blushed inexplicably: "Uh, there are many people who are prettier than me."

"Xiaoyu is also very beautiful, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks." Yan Shiyu praised.

"Really?" The little shark happily slapped the water surface with its tail, "Master Xiao Hei, human beings are really good at smooth talk."

Yan Shiyu was taken aback: Did this shark use the wrong idiom?

"However, there are many people who are prettier than you?" Xiaoyu said with a very cute tone, holding his chin: "No wonder A Niang said that we mermaids were miserably deceived by humans in the past. After all, who can resist being good-looking? What about those who speak well?"

Yan Shiyu was really confused: Is there something wrong with their conversation?
