Tang Lin slowly closed his eyes amidst more intense headaches.It was like a glass covered with mist was gradually wiped transparent, and the memories that had sunk in the depths of his mind slowly emerged, becoming clearer bit by bit.

... He remembered that they really shouldn't have met at this time.

The meeting between him and Xiao Zibai should have been earlier, earlier, when he just broke his shell, Xiao Zibai was six and a half years old, in an unknown cave, one person and one bird, met for the first time.

As vivid memories emerged in his mind, there was a soft "crash" sound in his ear, as if something was shattered.

Tang Lin opened his eyes abruptly, watching everything around him gradually turn into a hazy mist with a little sadness and a little daze.Computers, mobile phones, bookshelves, beds... This extremely familiar room was blurred like ink under his gaze, rolling into a chaotic ash.

"It turns out... this is just a demon of mine." Tang Lin murmured, watching the gray mist disappear before his eyes, he suddenly smiled to himself.

Back to modern times, back to a time when nothing had happened, back to before time travel... He never thought that he would have such a deep obsession with "returning to the beginning" in his heart.

After all, he has lived in the 21st century for a full 22 years.The bean brain fried dumplings in the small shop downstairs, the busy traffic on the street in front of the door, the shade in front of the library, the cicadas singing outside the window in summer... All these familiar traces have been quietly engraved in his bones, and he has completely let go. How can it be so easy.

But Tang Lin still let it go now, he had to let it go: In the 21st century that he was familiar with and missed, there was no child named Xiao Zibai.

"If I disappear, the child will definitely be anxious." Tang Lin said softly, he took a last look at his body that he had used for 22 years, stretched out his sharp claws, and tore through the nothingness that filled the sky.

On the bed in the Royal Beast Sect, the unconscious bird with beautiful feathers suddenly turned into a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy.

Tang Lin shook his body, straightened up from the bed, dazedly wiped his face, and wiped the black and yellow broken hair with his hand.

hand?How can I have hands?Could it be that he was still in the illusion and never woke up?He lowered his head in surprise, staring at his hands.

... In his memory, his hands should not be like this.

This hand is slender and fair, without any thin calluses, and the round nails are beautiful pink. Tang Lin's hand that has been used for 22 years should have a layer of calluses on the knuckle of the middle finger, and the color of the nails should not be so Pretty and pure, but should have a little bit of white dots - he was sure of this, because he had seen his nails once not long ago.

Tang Lin slowly tried to open and hold this hand: slowly spread out and flatten the fingers, and then slowly bend them, bringing the five fingers together in the palm.The slightly cool fingertips touched the warmth of the palm, and the feeling was so vivid that it didn't seem like a fake at all.

He looked up along his own hand, and saw that his wrist was protruding obliquely from a sleeve with a turquoise base and rolled with colorful trims. With a slight movement of his hand, the fabric of the clothes would be radiant, There is a faintly gorgeous and noble atmosphere.Tang Lin turned his head slightly, his black hair fell down his cheeks, he reached out to grab this strand of hair, and pulled it lightly: a slight pain came from his scalp.

This should be him, but not the one who lived 22 years.

Tang Lin looked at the clothes on his body that were somewhat similar to the original feather color, and vaguely realized something, but then became more confused.

If he remembers correctly, the "Ah Xuan" in "Cultivation of the True Sword" has never transformed from the beginning to the end. If he wears it, how can he become a human inexplicably?

Just when Tang Lin was puzzled, there was a sudden sound of light footsteps in the distance, Tang Lin's ears moved slightly, he raised his eyes, and looked at the completely unfamiliar door in front of him.

The next moment, the door was opened, and a boy in black with a milk yellow kitten in his arms walked in carelessly.

He walked into the room with his head down, muttering something in his mouth, Tang Lin didn't hear clearly—it was impossible to hear clearly, the boy was directly talking to the kitten in his arms with his spiritual sense, his mouth Moving is actually chewing melon seeds——

He didn't raise his head the whole time, and walked straight towards Tang Lin getting closer and closer. Seeing that he seemed to be about to crash into his arms, Tang Lin couldn't help but take a small step backwards.

Just as Tang Lin moved, the boy in black suddenly raised his head when he heard the movement in front of him.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" After seeing Tang Lin, the boy in black was even more surprised than Tang Lin. He stepped back vigilantly, and put his hands in a defensive posture.

Tang Lin hesitated for a moment: he himself didn't know why he was here.Just when he was worrying about how to explain it, the custard kitten in the arms of the boy in black suddenly jumped up high, stretched out his palm and slapped the boy on the head, then meowed, and pointed his tail up. Pointing to Tang Lin, then pointing to the empty bed.

The boy in black followed the yellow cat's tail, dangling back and forth between the bed and Tang Lin, then he patted his head, suddenly realized with a smile: "Oh, it turns out that you have transformed! This time Well, Kong Liu won't be angry anymore!"

As he spoke, he turned around laughing and ran out with the kitten in his hand, yelling all the way: "Kong Liu! Kong Liu! Come out! Something good!"

Tang Lin, who was forgotten by him and was still in a daze, said: ...

What happened, did he inexplicably travel to another world?Is there anyone here to help, this black-clothed boy looks like a snake maniac!

After a cup of tea.

Knowing why he appeared here, Tang Lin sat on the chair without saying a word, the air pressure around his body was terribly low.The black-clothed boy hugged the yellow-haired kitten, bowed his head and shrunk behind the screen, looked up at Tang Lin, lowered his head and scratched the kitten's ears, and said quietly to the cat, "You are indeed a descendant of Kong Liu's family!" , look at the momentum, it was printed in the same mold as Kong Liu."

Kong Liu, who was leaning on one side and was pouring tea, glanced at him with a half-smile but not a smile. The black-clothed boy trembled violently, and quickly pushed aside the milk-yellow kitten in his hand. Six and a half tails were exposed at once.

Tang Lin glanced at the dahlia-like blooming tails behind him, twitched the corners of his mouth, lowered his eyelids expressionlessly, and changed the topic back to the original place: "...So, you brought me here ? By setting a trap to stun me?"

Kong Liu didn't answer his question directly, put down the teapot, and asked instead, "If you were asked to follow me directly, would you come?"

After being silent for a while, Tang Lin replied honestly: "No."

"I guessed it, that's why I stunned you in advance." Kong Liu took a sip of tea slowly, tapped the table with his fingers, and waited until Tang Linxun focused his eyes on him, and then said leisurely : "You are still a cub, so you probably don't know how... popular among the monster race in the cultivation world."

He smiled ironically, put down his teacup and pointed at Tang Lin: "You may not know how valuable you are. Your feathers, eyes, bones, beak, claws... can all be made into magic weapons, and flesh and blood can be used to make alchemy." Or make it into a dish, the demon pill can be eaten to improve your cultivation, and even your soul may be eaten as a tonic."

"The demon clan has been in decline for many years. There are not many big monsters with high cultivation bases, and even fewer juniors who have developed spiritual wisdom. Many little monsters have not even been born with spiritual wisdom, and they were killed in the process of cultivating to become demons." Killed, you are considered lucky, you were born in a small place with few cultivators, if you were born in some famous mountains and rivers, I am afraid that people will find it immediately and make it into a dish."

"It's fine if you don't have your spiritual wisdom. If you have your spiritual wisdom and I perceive it, I can't let you go." Kong Liu said, slowly suppressing his smile, with a little indifference in his expression: "You shouldn't Do you know why I am called Kong Liu? My name is Kong Liu because I was the sixth hatched out of that brood of peacock eggs, and I was the youngest one with five brothers and sisters."

As he spoke, he closed his eyelashes slightly. Tang Lin could no longer see the expression in his eyes clearly, and only heard Kong Liu say indifferently: "...But, now I am the only one, Kong Liu, and the others are all dead. Not a single one is left."

The atmosphere in the room seemed to freeze for a moment, and there was a suffocating silence in the air. Kong Liu opened his eyes, and the expression on his face became stern.Tang Lin frowned slightly: He just discovered that Kong Liu's eyes were blood red, and he looked faintly fierce.

"How lucky, our six brothers and sisters are all enlightened; how unfortunate, our brood of peacocks was born near Lingchuan."

Lingchuan... sounds familiar.Tang Lin frowned: He couldn't remember where he had heard of Lingchuan.

Kong Liu paused for a moment, probably seeing Tang Lin's doubts, and explained simply: "There is a cultivation sect near Lingchuan. It seems that it is not very strong now, but at that time we...we didn't even know how to cultivate. I don’t understand yet, I’m not the opponent of that sect at all.”

"The monster race who has just opened up their spiritual wisdom doesn't know how to restrain their demon energy, and they don't know how to hide when they absorb the essence of the sun and the moon. In the eyes of cultivators, they are as conspicuous as sparks in the dark, and our six peacocks have all opened their spiritual wisdom. It looks like a ball of flames." Kong Liu shook his head and gave a wry smile: "Now think about it, who will die if we don't die? I live near the cultivation sect, and it's so conspicuous all day long..."

The black-clothed boy turned into a fox, silently lying on Kong Liu's lap, and licked Kong Liu's hand with his soft tongue. Kong Liu watched the fox and was silent for a moment, then turned his gaze to Tang Lin: " Although the place you are in is remote, occasionally some cultivators will pass by, so I will take you away. Instead of wasting time with you outside, I would rather explain to you in a safe place."

Tang Lin thought for a while, pursed his lips, and said carefully, "I don't want to complain about anything... It's just that there is a very important person in the place where I used to live. I don't know who I left this time. Maybe he will think that something happened to me..." He paused, lowering his eyes slightly: "I just want to say goodbye to him, at least to say goodbye to him."

"A very important... person?" Kong Liu slowly raised his eyebrows. His appearance was already a bit fierce amidst the beauty, but such a raised eyebrow was even more calm, and the coercion belonging to the peerless monster spread silently. Come.The yellow-haired kitten flinched unconsciously under his pressure, but Tang Lin straightened up, stood firmly on the spot, looked into Kong Liu's eyes, and said every word clearly: " Exactly, a very, very important person."

The coercion emanating from Kong Liu became more and more intense. Tang Lin pursed his lips and looked straight at him. The room fell into a deathly silence.

The black-haired fox nimbly jumped onto Kong Liu's body, looked at Tang Lin with a bit of condemnation in his eyes, and gently stroked Kong Liu's back with his furry fox tail.

Kong Liu stared intently at Tang Lin for a long time, then suddenly restrained his aura, Tang Lin breathed a sigh of relief, his tense back relaxed a little.

Pointing on the cold tea, a cup of tea was evaporated by Kong Liu in an understatement.He half-sat on the couch, slowly began to make tea for himself again, while making tea, he said to Tang Lin without raising the corner of his eyes: "You will regret it."

"The very important person you mentioned is the human race that lives with you, right?" Kong Liu picked up the teapot that was placed aside, and poured boiling water into the cup steadily. A faint fragrance: "That human race has a very high talent for cultivation and strong luck. In the future, it is likely that they will cultivate immortality."

Kong Liu put the teapot aside, rubbed the cup wall slowly with his fingertips, stared at the white mist rising in front of him, and said indifferently: "You are a monster, but you are very good in the eyes of cultivators. If you make friends with him, it is like a child walking in the downtown area with a daughter in his arms..."

He raised his eyelids, glanced at Tang Lin, and said with a smile on his lips, "Guess, when he finds out your value one day, will he attack you?"

Tang Lin's fists were clenched tightly, and his round and beautiful nails were so hard that they hurt his palms.

"He won't." Tang Lin said in a low voice, his voice was almost a whisper, and he didn't know whether he was speaking for Kong Liu or himself.

Kong Liu snorted lightly, the fox slipped off him and ran into his arms, Kong Liu hugged him familiarly, and handed him a small handful of melon seeds.

"He didn't attack you, just because you are still useful to him, wait for the day when you are useless..." Kong Liu stroked the furry back of the fox in his arms, and intentionally dragged the end of the sentence to a long time, leaving people unlimited Daydream space.

Tang Lin closed his eyes, and said softly, "So you won't agree to my going back, will you?"

Kong Liu didn't answer, but just smiled lightly.He picked up the steaming teacup, took a sip from it, and said suddenly: "Ah Ning, remember to teach him the method of transforming into a human being."

"Ah...ah?" The black fur fox in his arms raised his head in confusion, with two slices of melon seeds still sticking to the tip of his nose.

"Walking outside, you must not reveal your identity as a demon clan. You must learn the method of transforming people before you go." Kong Liu lowered his head and scraped the floating powder on the tea with the lid of the cup: "Boy, remember, if you Expose your identity outside... I will kill you with my own hands."

The last sentence he said was murderous, Kong Liuxiu's long eyes were slightly bloodshot, anyone could tell that the words were definitely not joking, but Tang Lin laughed slowly under the murderous look .

"Thank you."

Tang Lin said softly.

Kong Liu put down the teacup with a "snap" and growled impatiently, "Go away!"

Tang Lin bowed to Kong Liu. The black-haired fox looked back at Kong Liu, jumped to the ground wagging its tail, turned into a black-clothed boy, and dragged Tang Lin out of the house.After walking for a while, the boy in black suddenly exclaimed: "Oops! I left Erhuang inside!"

Inside the room, Erhuang, who was "left behind", jumped onto the table, looked up at the expressionless Kong Liu, and asked cautiously, "...are you okay?"

Kong Liu looked down at the hot teacup in his hand, and said coldly, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Erhuang looked at his expression, wanted to say something, but stopped abruptly, and finally said: "Don't think too much."

Kong Liu didn't speak.

The milk-yellow kitten quietly raised its eyes, and glanced at Kong Liu's arm.His eyes were sharp, and through the sunlight, he could faintly see a hideous scar under the white cloth.

——It was a human being who left Kong Liu with this scar.
