Strive for Science

Human beings cannot hear this sound, but the two demon cultivators of the Kong family can hear it clearly.

"who is it?"

"It turns out that idiots know that I'm calling idiots."

Kong Yang and Kong Yue searched around, and finally set their sights on the big elm tree in the yard. Kong Yue laughed mockingly: "It turns out that it is a dryad who has spiritual consciousness but can't change form. Our Bird Race has been doing this for nearly 20 years. Although there is no bird form, it is better than your tree clan, do you have a say here?"

"Hehe." The dryad shook the leaves, "I'm calling you idiots, you insist on wearing this title on your head, blame me?"

Kong Yue lived a life surrounded by stars and moons in the clan since she was a child, and she always looked down on the unknown tree clan, so she wanted to teach this ignorant tree a lesson.

"You two young people, what do you need help with?" Du Zhonghai, who was wearing an old coat and feeling his fat belly, walked down the stairs slowly, saw Kong Yang and Kong Yue, and hurriedly said, "We are off work now Alright, if you are not in a hurry, you can come back in the afternoon, I..."

"Huh!" Kong Yue withdrew her hand and glared at the big elm tree: "You are lucky today." Now that the world has changed, unless it is absolutely necessary, the demon cultivator cannot reveal his identity in front of humans.

"Let's go." Kong Yue turned and left without even looking at Du Zhonghai.

"Young people nowadays have quite a temper." Du Zhonghai hugged his teacup and walked out slowly, completely unaware that he brushed past two goblins.

Because they were ridiculed by humans, and Liu Mao saw them go to trouble Shen Changan, Kong Yang and Kong Yue, who loved face and were afraid of punishment from their elders, didn't say anything and sulked in the room after they returned.

But before they had time to get angry for too long, a monster from the clan came to invite them, saying that it was the oldest big monster of the tree clan, and the mulberry tree monster wanted to talk to them.

The two demons were at a loss, what did the mulberry tree demon seek them for?

When they rushed to the hall, they saw the elders of the Peacock clan sitting upright, and the mulberry tree demon sitting in the guest seat with a gloomy expression.Seeing this scene, Kong Yang and Kong Yue were a little scared, walked up to the elders in a proper manner, and saluted.

"It's you two who are bullying the juniors of our clan?" The mulberry tree demon raised the corners of his eyes and turned to look at the elder peacock, "Old Kong, what do you bird clan mean by this? Do you think that our tree demons are small, so you can bully them at will?" ?”

"Two sinners, why don't you apologize to Elder Tree soon?!" Elder Peacock couldn't help but support his forehead, because it's not easy for plant-type demon cultivators to transform, so plant-type demon cultivators protect their weaknesses. Not only do they protect their weaknesses, they also don't Face. 1000 years ago, there was a brainless thing in the Shui tribe, relying on the large number of people in the Shui tribe, he bullied a dryad who had been hardened for less than a hundred years. From that day on, the big demons of the tree demon tribe went to the Dragon Palace every day to complain All kinds of tricks and tricks were exhausted, so that the demon cultivators of the aquarium clan had a psychological shadow when they saw the demon cultivators of the plant department.

Thinking of what happened to the Shui tribe back then, Elder Peacock felt dizzy for a while. These two children were still too young to know how annoying the tree demon was.

As long as there are plants in the world, their nagging can be heard. If you are hated by them, don't even think about practicing, first think about how to prevent yourself from going crazy.

At this moment, Kong Yue and Kong Yang deeply felt the inexplicable sense of powerlessness, Kong Yue said aggrievedly: "Elder, we didn't do anything to the monster of the Tree Clan, obviously it scolded me and brother."

"That younger generation of my family who is being bullied can't even change his form, so how dare he scold you two?" The Mulberry Demon said with a cold face, "If the Bird Clan doesn't want to give me an explanation today, I can only go to Master Dao to judge. "

Elder Peacock’s face froze. A few days ago, Kong Ying ran to the adults to make trouble. They were already very afraid that the adults would be dissatisfied. Now that the tree clan has gone to complain, what will the adults think of their bird clan, especially the peacock clan?

"Lao Sang, we have been friends for thousands of years. How can you bother your lord with such a trivial matter?" Elder Peacock said with a smile, "I will let these two ignorant juniors apologize in person later, you How do you feel about that?"

"That junior in my family is timid..."

"I just got a bottle of panacea recently, and I asked them to bring it to make an apology."

"Sigh." The anger on the face of the mulberry tree monster dissipated a lot immediately, and he said to the elder Peacock with earnestness: "Old Kong, I know that your peacock clan is blessed by nature, as long as you succeed in transformation, you will have a cultivation level that other demon cultivators can't match. But Think back to how glorious the Phoenix clan was back then, and now there are only a few members of the same clan left, if you blindly pamper these juniors, then it is not love, but harm."

"Hehe." Elder Peacock sneered in his heart, the old man Mulberry couldn't say a good word.

"Okay, for the sake of our friendship for many years, I don't care too much about such trivial matters." The mulberry tree demon stood up, looked at Kong Yue and Kong Yang brother and sister, "If there is such a thing next time happened, I can only help Elder Kong educate the younger generation."

To be able to say that the old bully the young is so beautiful and refined, except for the tree monsters, no monsters can do it.

When an arrogant person meets a shameless person, he will become a scum with five negative combat effectiveness.

"Dao Nian."

Dao Nian sat in front of the french window, heard Shen Chang'an's shout, turned his head to look towards the door, and hurried footsteps came in from outside, before anyone arrived, the sound came first.

A few seconds later, Shen Chang'an strode in. The two of them met their gazes. Without a moment's hesitation, Shen Chang'an walked up to Dao Nian and smiled brightly at him: "Dao Nian, good afternoon."

This smile was so bright that it was dazzling, Daonian closed his eyes: "Wash your hands and eat."

"Okay, wait for me for a while." Shen Changan slipped into the kitchen, saw Uncle Zhao cooking sweet and sour fish, washed his hands and asked, "Uncle Zhao, do you need my help?"

"No, it's ready." Uncle Zhao took out a plate of cut fruit from the cabinet and put it in Shen Chang'an's hands, "Let's eat the fruit first, and I'll ask someone to bring the dishes to the table."

"Thank you." Shen Changan went out with fruit in his hands, walked up to Dao Nian and sat down, "Eat some fruit to fill your belly."

Dao Nian took a look at the things on the plate, they were all good food suitable for human beings, it seems that Lao Zhao specially prepared them for Shen Chang'an.

After eating, Dao Nian remembered that Shen Chang'an had to go to work, so he asked Liu Mao to take him there.

"It will take another hour to go to work, don't worry." Shen Changan pushed Dao Nian to the greenhouse outside, fumbled in his pocket with some embarrassment, and took out a keychain.

"You gave me the keys to the gate and the house. I have nothing to give you. This is the key to my house." Putting the key in Dao Nian's palm, "I have no relatives since I was very young, so the key to the house There are several of them, but no one else uses them except me."

"This..." Shen Changan blushed a little, "Although my house is small, but with this key, you don't need to knock on the door when you come to my house in the future."

"This is your house key?" Dao Nian finally understood what this key represented.He looked at Shen Changan with a complicated expression, slowly closed his palms, and the emotion in his eyes also calmed down, "I accept your wish."

Shen Changan heaved a sigh of relief, he thought that the aisle would reject the key, but he did not regret this move.

"Take your key, and I will be responsible for you." Dao Nian reached out and touched the top of Shen Chang'an's head, "There are too many fish at home, we can't finish them, so come over at night?"

Shen Changan scratched the top of his head, and the place touched by Dao Nian felt a little itchy: "Then... shall I come directly at night?"

"Yeah." Dao Nian put the key in the pocket next to his chest, and closed his eyes lazily: "Go to work, I want to rest for a while."

"Okay, then I'm going to work." Shen Changan pulled up the blanket on Dao Nian's lap, and left the greenhouse briskly.

After a long time, Dao Nian opened his eyes and looked at the twin brothers who were guarding outside the greenhouse: "Shen Tu."

"Sir?" Shen Tu walked into the greenhouse and looked at Dao Nian respectfully.

"I took his key."

"Sir?!" Shen Tu looked at Dao Nian in shock, "You, what did you say?"

Dao Nian glanced at him and said nothing, he just gave Chang An a key to his temporary residence, but Chang An returned him a key to his house.

"But Mr. Shen is just a human being. Human life is short, birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable. You..." Seeing that Dao Nian was unmoved, Shen Tu cupped his hands and saluted, "You are happy as long as you are happy."

The key is a very private thing. If the god demon gives the key of the mansion to another person, it means inviting the other party to double cultivation.But Mr. is different from ordinary gods and demon cultivators. He has represented supremacy since he was born. He has no feelings, no bias, and naturally he dare not be given the key by anyone.

But today a human gave the master the key to the house, and he accepted it.

At this moment, Shen Tu even thought that maybe Shen Chang'an didn't know what the key he sent out represented.

But whether he knew it or not, it didn't matter the moment Mr. took the key.

"Sir." Liu Mao hurried in, "The patriarchs of the Bird Clan and the Beast Clan brought the younger generation to meet."

"Why are you here again?" Dao Nian lay down on the wheelchair, closed his eyes and pretended he didn't hear anything.

"The elders of the two clans saw that Mister had stayed in the human world for a long time, and were worried that it would be inconvenient for you to be in the human world, so they sent a few juniors who had been in the human world since childhood to help." Liu Mao said, "If you don't see me, I will let them go back. "

"What can they do?" Dao Nian opened his eyes, "Call me to see."

After a while, the elders of the two clans came in, followed by two men and two women, both of whom had pleasing looks, and their smiles were even more pleasing to human elders.

Dao Nian raised his finger, motioning for Liu Mao to ask questions.

"I don't know what the juniors of the two friends are good at?"

What are you good at?

The two elders were at a loss. They were looking for juniors from the clan according to the human standard favored by the adults. They said they were here to serve the adults, but they were just looking for an opportunity to get close. Several juniors were called as servants.

"My lord, this junior is best at planting." A cute rabbit demon in a white dress said, she smiled showing beautiful dimples, and there was no flaw on her face.

"I haven't accepted an apprentice, so don't call yourself a junior in front of me." Dao Nian asked blankly, "Compared to the descendants of the Ji family, how is it?"

"The little demon's cultivation level is still low, how dare he compare with the descendants of Shennong." The rabbit demon blushed, not daring to look up at Dao Nian.

Dao Nian waved.

Liu Mao began to ask the fox demon standing next to the rabbit demon, "What about you?"

Fox demon: "..." He is a vixen, what else is he good at, of course it is confusing people.But in front of Dao Nian, he didn't dare to tell the truth, racked his brains and said: "The little demon is good at calming the mind. If the lord is willing to keep the little demon, the little demon is willing to sing for the lord to relieve his worries."

Dao Nian wanted to wave him back, but suddenly remembered that Shen Chang An sometimes suffers from insomnia, so he nodded to Liu Mao: "Let him sing to Chang An at night."

Fox Demon: "..."

He came to seduce adults, not to concubine or serve as slaves for adults.

"You don't want to?" Seeing that the fox demon didn't speak, Dao Nian said, "That's fine..."

"Lucky little demon." The fox gritted his teeth and agreed. In this world, there are only shovels that don't work hard, and there are no corners that cannot be pried.

The elder of the Bird Clan saw that a junior from the Beast Clan stayed behind, so he was a little anxious: "My lord, in terms of singing, who can compare with our Bird Clan, this is my clan's lark, he can sing the best song in the world. pleasant music."

Why sing the most beautiful music, to attract Chang An's attention right under his nose?

Since he took the key to Chang'an, he didn't intend to let other monsters or people have Chang'an's ideas.Dao Nian lowered his eyelids and said nothing, with an attitude of "I'm already very tired, so I have to finish speaking as soon as possible".

The elder of the bird clan: "This is the parrot demon of our clan. It is best at making people happy and can relieve your boredom."

Dao Nian thought, Chang'an always worked overtime, and I heard that some human beings committed suicide by jumping off the building due to work pressure, so it would be nice to keep a parrot to relieve boredom.He stretched out his hand a little, and the parrot demon instantly transformed into its original form, and nodded with satisfaction: "That's it."

How can you confuse the Lord by turning into the original form?

The eyes of the elders of the Bird Clan went dark. They didn't expect that the misfortune sent by the human beings could be so powerful in charm that the adults only focused on him. They had to figure it out slowly to have a chance to win the favor of the adults.

The little demon who turned into a parrot flapped her wings, cowardly retracting her head under the wings. Her ideal is to blend in with the crowd and become a comedian. The difficult operation of charming Mingjun is not suitable for her.It's just that the orders of the elders in the clan are difficult to disobey, so she rushed the parrot to come here.

I don't know what the elders of the clan think, they actually want to use beauty tricks on the heartless and lustless adults.Don't even think about it, the adults see all things come into being, and watch the spring and autumn come quietly. In his eyes, what difference can there be between the creatures in the world?

But the elders just seemed to be dizzy, and insisted on saying something that humans can do, and their monster race can do it better.The human race has been thriving for so many years, and the spaceships created by themselves can go to the moon. What can't be done?

The Dao is fifty, the sky is fourty-nine, and people escape one of them.The luck of the human race is at its peak, and even adults can't fully control the vitality of human beings. Their monster race luck is just like that of stepmothers. Why do they compare and fight with humans?

Alas, being born as a demon, the most fearful thing is that you will not be able to calm down.

Thinking of going to Dao Nian's house to eat delicious food in the evening, Shen Chang'an's work enthusiasm was very high all afternoon, and when it was time to get off work, he couldn't wait to leave.

"Everyone wait." Du Zhonghai stopped Shen Chang'an who was about to sneak out, "Tomorrow our Yuelao Temple will hold a temple fair, and there will be a lot of visitors. You four young people will work hard tomorrow and go to the scene to maintain order. .”

After finishing speaking, Du Zhonghai glanced at Shen Chang'an and the others: "It just so happens that the four of you haven't found a partner, so find a spare time tomorrow to say goodbye, maybe you will find someone."

"Director, we are the civil service department, so we can't be superstitious." Chen Panpan said, "In the past, the Yuelao Temple Fair was held only in December. Why is it so early this year?"

"It may be because Double Eleven is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Many elders hope that their children will be eloquent before Double Eleven, so that their children can get out of the singles?" Du Zhonghai said with a smile, holding a teacup, "It's good to be early, but I really have to wait until later." Isn’t it colder when you go on patrol in December?”

"Director Du, don't worry, I'll be there on time tomorrow." Shen Changan dropped this sentence, turned around and ran downstairs.

It was rare to see Shen Changan so active after get off work, Du Zhonghai waved his hand to the others, "Let's all get off work, work harder tomorrow, and get up early."

On the road, I met an old man pushing a cart selling fried chestnuts. Shen Changan bought a pack, covered it with his coat, and drove back to the community where Daonian lived.

"Dao Nian." Shen Changan strode into the door, put the coat in his arms into Dao Nian's hand, "Hurry up, eat while it's hot."

Spreading out his coat, looking at the chestnuts in a paper bag, Dao Nian raised his hand in front of Shen Changan: "Hand hurts."

"Why is the thumb still red?" Shen Changan took Dao Nian's hand and looked at it carefully. There was no wound on it, and there was no sharp thorn stuck in the flesh. Why hasn't it healed after so many days?

Peeled a fried chestnut and put it in Dao Nian's mouth: "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it gets cold."

In the corner, the fox demon bent over and mopped the floor, thinking bitterly, treacherous human beings use this method to please adults, it's just fried chestnuts, what's so rare?

"Huh?" Shen Changan noticed that there was a bird shelf in the corner, and there was a parrot standing on the shelf. It had a tuft of red hair on its chest, and it looked very beautiful. "Why is there an extra parrot at home?"

"It was given by someone else, if you like it, keep it, if you don't like it, send it back." Dao Nian pointed to the chestnuts, motioning Shen Changan to continue peeling.

Shen Changan didn't notice his movements, got up and walked to the parrot, and asked Liu Mao who was standing not far away: "Does this parrot have a name?"

Liu Mao smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, get one for it."

"Feiying, Feiying." The parrot flapped its wings and said its own name.

"So you can talk." Shen Chang'an had heard about parrots that could speak human language since he was a child, but he had never seen a live and talking parrot, now that he finally saw one, he was amazed, "The name sounds nice. "

"Thank you for the compliment." The parrot bent one wing, as if curtseying.

"Dao Nian, this parrot is so smart." Shen Changan took some bird food from Liu Mao and put it in the parrot's trough.

"Thank you, thank you." The parrot hopped on the bird stand a few times, performed a "dance", and then bowed its head to eat the food that Changan fed.

The fox demon mopping the ground sneered. It really deserves to be a hairy and brainless bird tribe. It is really embarrassing for the demon tribe to do so in front of a human being.

Uncle Zhao called out from the kitchen, "Hu Ming, come in and wash the dishes."

Fox Demon: "..."

As the face value of the younger generation of the fox clan, why did he get reduced to washing dishes and mopping the floor?

"At noon on the day of hoeing, lamb and pig."

"It's sweat dripping into the soil." Shen Changan laughed out loud at this silly and cute parrot, turned around and said to Daonian who raised his eyebrows, "Dao Nian, this parrot is too fun."

"It's fun to eat." Dao Nian looked at the empty bowl in front of him. Humans really don't cherish it when they get it. As soon as he received the key from Shen Chang'an, his status was not as good as that of a parrot.

Seeing Dao Nian drooping eyelids and looking unhappy, Shen Changan hurriedly picked fish bones for him: "I've never seen a talking parrot before, don't be angry with me, come, eat fish."

Dao Nian still doesn't speak, human beings just like to push their feet, and it's useless to act like a baby.

"Do you want shrimp?" Shen Changan winked at him, "I'll peel it for you."

"Yes." Forget it, he is young and playful, so let him be.

After eating, Shen Chang'an didn't want Dao Nian to be unhappy, so he didn't go to play with the parrot anymore, and watched TV with him for a while, remembering that he had to get up early tomorrow, so he lay down on the bed early.

He thought he would not be able to fall asleep lying on the bed so early, but a beautiful singing sound came from nowhere, and he fell asleep unknowingly in this singing sound.

Hu Ming was lying on the grass outside, so tired that he became his original shape. He stayed here for a long time, mopping the floor, washing the dishes, washing the dishes, and even doing things like coaxing people to sleep. Not looking at him, this is simply a shame of being a vixen.

The next morning, Shen Changan was so sleepy that he couldn't keep his eyes open, so it was Liu Mao who drove him outside the Yuelao Temple.Wrapping the coat tightly around his body, he got out of the car in a daze, and when he heard someone calling him, he was about to respond when Liu Mao patted him on the shoulder, "Mr. Shen, I'll come to pick you up tonight."

"Oh, yes." Shen Changan nodded, "Thank you, Brother Liu."

Since last night, his address to Liu Mao has changed from the polite Mr. Liu to Brother Liu.

He turned his head and looked around, except for some merchants who had already started to prepare stalls, no one seemed to call him.After a while, Ding Yang and the others rushed over. Seeing that Shen Changan had arrived so early, they said with emotion: "Chang'an, it's getting colder and colder these two days, why did you get up in the morning?"

"I put on my clothes and was sent over." Shen Changan yawned, "It's still not dawn, so no one should come to join in the fun, right?"

"Young people still have too little knowledge." Ding Yang pointed to the Yuelao Temple in front of him, "Go, I will take you to see and see."

When the four of them came to the Yuelao Temple, they realized that there were already many people inside. The uncles and aunts held incense candles, knelt and worshiped to the Yuelao statue, and the whole temple was shrouded in clouds and mist.

"These are for the sake of their children's marriage." Ding Yang coughed choked by the smell of incense candles. "They think that the earlier they come to burn incense, the easier it is for their wishes to come true. Some people came to burn incense after midnight last night."

Chen Panpan walked into the door: "I'm going to pay my respects too, do you want to come?"

She didn't buy joss sticks, she stood outside the hall and made a few bows to the old moon statue.

"Panpan, do you still believe this?" Ding Yang dragged Shen Changan and Xu Ze in, "Come on, let's worship together."

"Believe it or not, it's okay to worship the gods." Chen Panpan stepped aside and gave the space to the three of them. "Today is a temple fair. We call it close to the people's life."

Shen Changan stood still and looked up at the slightly smiling Moon God Statue. He didn't know if he got up too early and didn't sleep well enough. He inexplicably felt that the smile on the statue's face suddenly showed a little more fear and panic.

As if...as if afraid of him bowing down.

The author has something to say: Yuelaoxiang: Someone who has a partner comes to ask me for marriage, that is called cheating.

Note: "The Dao is fifty, the sky is fourty-nine, and the human escape is the first" comes from "Book of Changes", not the author's original creation.
