snake in the drawer

At noon, Mo Bai couldn't move and didn't want to be carried by the snake demon. By chance, Mo Bai saw a small house not far away, and looked at the snake demon expectantly, "Mo Shi, let's go over there and rest for a while. Bar."

The snake demon originally wanted to refuse, but when he said it, it became "hmm." Even he himself didn't know what was going on.There is no way, the words have been spoken, he is a big monster, he can't go back on his word, can he?

The mountain road was still very narrow and muddy, and the snake demon walked ahead to open the way, walking very steadily, holding Mo Bai with one hand to prevent him from falling.Mo Bai felt that it was not good for him to be supported by others as a man, so he said, "Mo Shi, let me go by myself."

The snake demon stopped in his tracks, turned his head and gave him a contemptuous look, "Is it muddy like last time?" He didn't like to sleep with the dirty Mo Bai in his arms.

Mo Bai hasn't reacted yet, what was last time?

It took a long time before he remembered that when he was looking for the snake demon last time, he fell many times on the road.He justified himself in his heart because he was too anxious to look at the road, but in fact he also knew that he was really not good at walking mountain roads.

After being dragged to the small house, Mo Bai discovered that it was a dilapidated Taoist temple.He wondered if there would be water leakage here when it rained, and would it not be able to keep out the cold in winter?

Wherever the snake demon went, he didn't enter the door, but stood outside the house, waiting for the people inside to come out.

Mo Bai turned to look at him, not knowing why.

After a few minutes, an old man came out of the house slowly, with disheveled hair, wearing a tattered Taoist robe, and slippers on his feet. While going out, he rubbed his eyes and gave a huff, so he was confused He said calmly, "Two guest officers, do you want to be a top student or stay in a hotel?"

The snake demon felt that this line was quite familiar, but it didn't match the old man's appearance, clothes or room decorations at all.

Mo Bai was at a loss, this is not a Taoist temple, but an inn?

"Old man, is this a hotel?" Mo Bai asked.

"Who said that!" The old man glared at the two of them, "This is obviously a Taoist temple!"

After finishing speaking, the old man circled around them, and then his eyes stopped on Mo Bai. He observed Mo Bai for a long time like looking at a commodity. Do you not want to be the 100th owner of this Taoist temple?"

The snake demon has been watching the old man's every move vigilantly. Seeing him approaching, he quickly pulled Mo Bai into his arms, frowning at the weird old man.

"What do you want to do?" the snake demon asked coldly.He felt that the old man must have no good intentions.

"I want to take an apprentice, little monster." The old man said with a smile, looking like an expert in the world, and then covered his mouth as if regretting, "How did I say it? If the little brother doesn't know, then I It will destroy the relationship between the two of you, sin."

Mo Bai knew that the word "little monster" had successfully irritated the snake demon, so he quickly comforted him, held the snake demon's hand gently, and signaled him to calm down with his eyes.

"Hmph." Feeling the heat from his hands, the snake demon felt much better, and stopped fussing with the old man.

"So you know, let me tell you, stay away from this monster, don't you know that monsters can eat people?" The old man changed into a worried face again, and persuaded him earnestly.

Mo Bai admired his acting skills very much, nodded, "Oh."

Then... pulled the snake demon around and left.

The snake demon was very satisfied that Mo Bai did not easily believe the old man's words.He is not a little demon who gains strength by absorbing other people's energy.

"Hey, hey, don't go!" The old man jumped anxiously behind, and followed closely, "I'm not joking, really, you guys let me finish my sentence!"

Mo Bai was also worried that the old man would fall when he was old, so he stopped and looked at him expressionlessly.

The old man lost a slipper on the road, and standing alone on the golden rooster, he said flatteringly: "Actually, I want you to do me a favor."

Seeing that the old man was pitiful, Mo Bai glanced at the snake demon and said, "Let's go in and talk." He was also embarrassed to let the old man stand on one foot alone.

The two entered the room together, and the old man gave up the only chair in the room for Mo Bai to sit on. Of course, Mo Bai would not agree, "Sit down, I'm not tired."

The snake demon thought the old man was weird, and his spiritual power was also strong, at least stronger than any human being he had ever seen. The snake demon asked impatiently, "What's the matter, tell me quickly."

"Okay." The old man nodded submissively, "It's like this, I made mistakes when I was young..."

The old man's name is Ye Jinchi. He was a very powerful exorcist when he was young, and he was born in a family of exorcists.He was also high-spirited back then, and basically no one could overshadow his limelight.

The education he received since he was a child is that monsters must be bad, and what they have to do is to protect human beings from monsters.And he has always believed in this, never letting go of a monster.

Later, he met a woman from the spirit demon organization. The two of them didn't know each other's identity, so they fell in love as a matter of course.

Until one mission, the two met. A sparrow demon who wanted to repay his favor found the human who saved him. The sparrow demon pretended to be a human and lived with the man. Later, the man also realized that something was wrong and found the exorcist. The organization issued a task, and he happened to be the one to take it.

Very easily, he killed the monster, and the lover who came after him had a big fight with him.

The two separated, and he didn't think he was wrong, he was still killing monsters recklessly, until one day, he saw a monster saving human beings, and he felt that the monster must have some kind of plan, secretly following them , and then it was like the scene reappeared, human beings approached the demon master, and the demon master killed the monster.

For the first time, he realized that his lover might be right.

At this time, he was already 30 years old, and when he recalled the murder he had committed, he felt a little regretful. He was much more cautious about the next mission, and when he met his lover again, the lover already had a child.

And standing beside him was a monster, and he left silently.

In the next few years, he didn't take over the task, found a job, and started to live the life of an ordinary person.

Later, he received a letter from someone in the family asking him to go back, because the family was in danger.

He hurried back and found that most of the family members were dead, and a large group of monsters entered the family.What surprised him most was that his lover was also there.

Later, he learned that his lover's child was a half-demon who was killed by his family.After he beat back the monster, the lover who was besieged to death turned into a fox, and then told him a cruel truth that the half-monster was his child.

Most of the people present heard the conversation between the two, and they planned to lock him into this area for fear that he would go crazy for revenge.

"For so many years, you are the only human being I have seen, you must help me!"

The tone changed too quickly, and Mo Bai couldn't adapt for a while.He was still immersed in sorrow, but the old man had returned to his original unscrupulous appearance.

"How can we help you?"

"Can you get out by yourself?" the snake demon questioned.He didn't believe that this kind of enchantment could trap the old man.

"...At first I didn't want to go out, but now I really can't." The old man sighed and took out an envelope from his pocket. "I want to ask you to bring this letter to my apprentice."

"What's his name?" Mo Bai took the letter, but there was no writing on the cover.

"My name is Ye Li. I belong to the same family as me. He doesn't know what happened back then, and the family members won't tell him why I disappeared. Give him the letter and advise him not to kill monsters indiscriminately."

"Yeah." Mo Bai nodded, agreed, and asked again, "How do I find him?"

Hearing Mo Bai's inquiry, the old man quickly replied: "Go to Ye's house in Muluo City. He should go back regularly. Don't tell others that I wrote him the letter. You must hand it to him."

"Ah."

The snake demon listened to it and wanted to sleep. Seeing that the old man had finally finished speaking, he pulled Mo Bai away and left. He didn't want to stay with this weird old man any longer.

Pulling Mo Bai down the mountain, he didn't pay attention to the enchantment at all, a dark green light flashed in his eyes, and the enchantment disintegrated automatically. He turned his head and sneered at the old man when Mo Bai didn't notice , as if mocking his powerlessness.

He still remembered that the old man called him a "little monster" just now.

The old man smiled in surprise. Sure enough, some monsters are much purer than humans, but they are hidden under the indifferent and arrogant appearance and cannot be understood by ordinary people.

However, he still didn't plan to go out, so let's make up for his sins.After staying here for a long time, he doesn't know if he can adapt to the past life.

Mo Bai was not familiar with this place, and wanted to go back by car, but he didn't know where the station was, so he had to be carried home by the snake demon.He was a little puzzled, why the snake demon didn't change into its original form.

It's more convenient to bring people along in the original form, and it's not that the snake demon doesn't want to change, it's just...

His current original shape is a small snake with the thickness of a finger!Can't get bigger just yet!The same situation as in Jingxu Mountain happened again, the snake demon's inheritance memory was not complete, and he didn't know what happened.

And his snake skin was blasted into scum by thunder, which is a pity.

I could have exchanged for a new dress or something, but now I can only use old ones.

After returning home, Mo Bai felt very relaxed, but he didn't relax for long.The holidays for the third year of high school are only three days. This year, they are lucky and only have four days.There will be class the day after tomorrow, and his homework hasn't started yet.

After a few seconds of mourning for himself, he took out his paper and began to scribble.

The snake demon moved a chair and sat down beside him, leaning his head with his left hand and staring at Mo Bai. After a few minutes of silence, the snake demon felt that he was left out, and rubbed his tail on Mo Bai's calf, but his eyes Still staring at the test paper carefully.

Mo Bai sighed helplessly, lifted the tip of the snake demon's tail and put it on his lap, "Don't move around."

The snake demon nodded obediently, "Yeah." Then he put the tip into Mo Bai's waist.

Mo Bai: "..."
