The daily life of non-human beings traveling through time and space

At this moment, the sky is orange-red and dark, a light that can only be seen at dusk.

Half of the villagers in the deserted village gathered under the tall stone platform in the center of the village. On the circular stone platform where five people can stand, there are only two people, one old and one young.

The old one is the head of the deserted village, and the young one is a villager, a half-grown boy named Xiu Mi.

The people around are piled up, and those who are closer to the stone platform are more likely to stand on tiptoe. At first glance, they all look eagerly looking forward to it.

The crowd was noisy and noisy, but Xiumi was unmoved. Under the guidance of the village chief, he approached the transparent crystal growing in the stone seat in the middle of the stone platform. When his palm touched the surface of the crystal, Xiumi also closed his eyes. .

As time passed by, the crystal slowly lit up with light, and the light continued to expand, enveloping Xiu Mi in it.

The inside of the crystal is flowing and shining, like a bright galaxy.

The crowd quickly fell silent.

This day is not a festival, nor is there a feast, and Xiumi is not some rare character in the deserted village. The reason why so many people can gather is because he is about to summon demons.

A few fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys sat on the trunk of an old tree not far away, feeling jealous and curious.

"Tsk tsk, that's amazing. Shumi is the youngest among us, but Huanhai has already trained to the point where he can summon monsters..."

"What kind of monsters will be summoned? I really look forward to it..."

"It's okay, as long as you don't collapse into a useless person after failing to summon like Uncle Xin and the others."

"That's right."

In this world, the sea of ​​illusion refers to the spiritual sea of ​​people. Only humans with a sufficiently large and stable fantasy sea can have enough strength to withstand the summoned demons when they communicate with the ghost stone crystal.

Xiumi still kept his eyes closed, his consciousness being embraced by the sea of ​​illusions, and he passed through barriers, both tangible and intangible.

In the surrounding red light and black mist, there are countless shapes and shadows, large and small, groaning/groaning and roaring, and Xiu Mi faintly feels that as long as he wants to, he can have some kind of connection with any of these shapes and shadows... …

But he didn't stop for them, he was still moving forward, continuing to move forward, gradually flowing into a dark and boundless space.

This is where?

As time passed, Xiu Mi "saw" small white spots of light lit up one after another around him, like stars twinkling in the night.

The teenager's consciousness began to get lost, and the fantasy sea surrounding him gradually dissipated and became thinner.

When he was about to forget who he was and why he was wandering in this vast "sea of ​​stars" like the universe, a stream of light flew from a distance and passed straight through his fantasy sea——

"what?"

Xiu Mi vaguely heard such a voice, and he saw that streamer circled around him...

Immediately afterwards, his consciousness suddenly returned!

By the way, he is Xiu Mi, and he is here to summon the demons!He wants to summon a powerful demon to avenge his parents and adoptive father who died at the hands of monsters!

He stared at the streamer, tried his best to approach——

Xiu Mi suddenly opened his eyes, he withdrew his hand, and looked at the radiant transparent spar in front of him.

The village head next to him was startled, and his eyes widened.

He is quite an experienced person, and he has presided over eighty or one hundred summoning ceremonies. Xiu Mi's hand was placed on the ghost stone crystal for too long, and he was almost sure that the boy's summoning failed. He sighed in his heart and prepared to let someone come. lift him down...

It's because those who failed to summon often suddenly fell into a coma for several days, and most of them woke up in a daze, as if they had lost their souls.

After all, the longer the summoning time, the lower the possibility of successful summoning, no, the time it takes for Shumi, it is better to say that the possibility is almost impossible——

However, the possibility is extremely low, but it is not completely impossible. If it can be successful in this way, it is possible to summon a rare and powerful monster.

Xiu Mi didn't fail, didn't fall into a coma, so what kind of monsters would they see next?

The village head had a rare feeling of anticipation. Standing behind Xiu Mi, he stretched out his hand to signal the surrounding villagers to be quiet.

Xiumi's summoning took too long, and most people were already a little restless.

In full view of the crowd, the spar suddenly trembled violently, and then, a beam of dazzling silver light suddenly burst out from it. This light was so huge that it almost enveloped the entire deserted village, and the beam even pointed directly above the head. The sky, like a miracle, everyone looked at the sky, and this beam of light actually covered the setting sun——

"Crack!"

This is the sound of spar breaking into pieces.

As the voice fell, the silver light that shocked everyone just now disappeared.

Xiu Mi stared blankly at the surroundings, and in the astonishing silence, he heard... a meow?

In front of his eyes, above his head, in mid-air, a fat cat with orange fur appeared out of thin air, just as it was falling, Xiu Mi stretched out his hand subconsciously, and caught the orange cat.

and many more……

Xiu Mi was dumbfounded, and looked at the cat in his arms in disbelief...

No way, no way?

Is this the monster he summoned? !

wrong--

Xiu Mi looked into the air again, and a silver vortex appeared there. The vortex was spinning at a high speed, gradually getting bigger, and the color gradually became lighter, almost transparent.

When the silver vortex completely disappeared, a figure stepped out from the vortex.

Shumi subconsciously held her breath.

On the complicated and gorgeous white robe, there is a pendant with exquisite patterns, a tail of silver hair is tied in a thin braid on the chest, and the rest hangs down behind him in a pile...

This is a young man with a handsome appearance, so beautiful that he is not human.

For a moment, Shuya thought he was dead——

Because in his knowledge and imagination, I am afraid that only when the soul returns to the embrace of the Lord of the Underworld after death, can he see such ghosts and gods that shake people's hearts and make people feel endless yearning, and even want to approach him desperately like a moth to a flame. , Go after the beautiful face, right?

I saw the young man staying in mid-air, without bowing his head, just condescending, his gaze swept downwards lightly, and finally fell on Xiu Mi - to be exact, the orange that Xiu Mi held in his arms. cat.

He just lowered his head, and the conspicuous tassel earring on the lobe of his left ear was swaying slightly in the movement, and made a small sound when it collided.

■

all in all--

At that time, when he traveled through the plane of time and space and came to this world with Xiao A, the first thing he saw was a group of dark heads and faces that were so shocked that they lost expression control.

To be honest, Shi Yue was also a little surprised. When he traveled through time and space, he accidentally discovered the spirit of an ordinary human in the boundless universe. Afterwards, he became curious and followed this human spirit directly to come to this world... …

Shi Yue landed on the stone platform, catching little A who jumped into his arms.

He looked at Xiu Mi again. This young man was about thirteen or fourteen years old. He was wearing a close-fitting unlined garment and a wallet, and a short knife was tied to his waistband. He stood upright and had clear eyes. Although he was thin and thin, his limbs were a little slender. But through the ups and downs of the clothes, thin muscles can be vaguely seen, and the calluses on the hands are quite thick... This is a young soldier.

But no matter how you look at it, it is really just an ordinary human being.

The "spirit" of ordinary people can appear in the universe like that, and it is not swallowed by the darkness, and dissipates quickly, and it is enough to persist until it is discovered and approached... The human beings in this world have amazingly powerful spiritual power.

"Meow Shiyue, the racial form of your world is a kind of demon, this kind of demon lives by eating human love/desire, wait a moment meow! The energy you need to collect is love from other lives, and the energy derived from love Desire." Little A's voice gradually weakened: "Ah... the energy that needs to be collected every time is always weird..."

"Hey, the energy is growing slowly..." It's only been less than a minute. After being surprised, Little A quickly understood. Meow."

"Are you the monster I summoned?" Xiu Mi's voice was trembling: "I, my name is Xiu Mi, what should I call you?"

Xiuya was nervous and excited, because he knew that being able to summon a monster in human form was a very powerful thing... Such a monster must have very powerful power!

After a brief communication with the power of the laws of this world, Shi Yue roughly understood some of the situation here, as well as the information about "summoning demons" that is completely common sense for this place.

After hearing Xiu Mi's words, he showed an inconspicuous smile, and said in a low voice, "No."

"What?" Xiu Mi was taken aback.

"The monster you summoned is here!" Shi Yue raised the little A who was caught off guard, and showed the fat orange to Xiumi who looked confused: "A cat monster. As for me, I just follow this cat Just come to your world to see, in fact, I am not something you summoned."

"Huh??" Xiu Mi was stunned.

"Okay, I'll return this cat to you~" Shi Yue threw little A to Xiu Mi, and the next moment, the whole person disappeared in place.

A gust of autumn wind blew past——

A few blackbirds staying nearby, after circling a few times in the air, flapped their wings and left the deserted village, flying towards a certain direction.

Shi Yue's voice was not loud, except for Xiu Mi and the village head on the stone platform, the villagers below couldn't hear what he said at all.

Seeing Shi Yue disappear at this moment, although he was a little shocked, but soon after, he started to discuss enthusiastically, so many people gathered together and shouted, it was as shocking as if a pot exploded in his ears.

"It looks exactly like a human being..."

"...I've never seen such a monster before..."

"...My mother who is far away in the kingdom of the underworld, is that a real monster? I believe that I have fallen in love... maybe it is not necessarily the river of the underworld..."

"Ah... it's amazingly beautiful..."

"Hey! Brother Xiumi! Why did the monster you summoned suddenly disappear? Did it go back to your fantasy sea? I want to take another look, even if it's just one more look!"

"What luck, Shumi..."

"It's amazing! Shumi! That monster must be very powerful!"

"It looks like a very honorable Lord Monster! Even in the kingdom of the Lord of the Underworld, he must have an extraordinary identity..."

Xiu Mi's attention was not on those noisy voices, he turned his head stiffly to look at the village head, and then at the cat in his arms, the boy's face was full of confusion: "...Really? Village head, this The cat is the monster I summoned?"

At this moment, I saw the cat ferociously stretching its paws in one direction, making a shrill meow... Mmm... It looks very fierce, but it really only looks...

No, if the summoned is really such a weak monster, Shumi will start to wonder if he is cursed by something...

"No!" The village chief quickly denied that he was almost in tears, his eyes were shining with excitement, and he said solemnly: "The huge silver beam of light just now, and the shattered ghost stone crystal... even if the city lord They didn't have such an astonishing vision when they summoned the demon back then..."

"Xu Mi, don't you understand? What you summoned is a very, very powerful monster, a monster with a complete human form... This must be a gift from the Lord of the Underworld..."

When the village chief said this, he suddenly closed his eyes and muttered something, as if he was praying to the Lord of the Underworld, and then continued: "What you have to do is to worship this monster well and provide him with everything he needs, and he will definitely lend you strength ...Xu Mi, the monster you enshrined will accompany you on your journey, no matter where you go from now on, you don't have to worry about it..."

Of course Shi Yue didn't really disappear, he just hid his body and stayed where he was, listening to Xiu Mi and the village head's exchange, while facing Little A's cat furiously.
