Volume 1 The Wind Will Rise and the Clouds Will Be Treacherous Chapter 3: The Old Man Awakens (3)

"It's not broken, is it? There's still a night watchman, and I've heard he's very strong. Wang Shixin paused and added, "It is said that he is in the upper valley here." ”

The orange cat raised its hind legs with great difficulty, and pulled the roots of its ears twice: "Just like the emperor who did not get the jade seal of the country in ancient times, the name is not right." Peiyu, who has been passed down from generation to generation, disappeared with that one, and none of the later night watchmen can be considered real night watchmen. ”

"I see. Wang Shixin nodded as if he were taught.

"Isn't this scholar be...?" the orange cat shook his head again.

"How can a night vibe a night watchman?" Wang Shixin understood what the orange cat meant, and immediately vetoed it.

"He wasn't born a nightfish. The orange cat looked at Xu Guan's withered face deeply, "Yelu doesn't know how to study to gain fame." ”

Wang Shixin immediately reached out to touch Xu Guan's waist, and after touching him, he searched his whole body up and down, and shook his head at the orange cat, there was no jade pendant.

The tip of the orange cat's tail swayed, and after thinking for a while, he still couldn't bear to let Xu Guan die like this, "Do me another favor, help me send him to a place, and then you can go." ”

"You're welcome, senior. "Wang Shixin can have a relationship with this old cat who has lived for more than 100 years, and it is too worthwhile to give someone away.

Wang Shixin stretched out his hand to pick up Xu Guan, carried it on his shoulder, and followed the orange cat to the exit of the cemetery.

A man and a cat walked out of the cemetery. It was already twelve o'clock at night, and there were no pedestrians on the street, except for the occasional car or two speeding through the street, and no one cared about the orange cats.

The orange cat took Wang Shixin through two streets and turned into a small alley.

"This is it. The orange cat stopped.

Suddenly a shout sounded overhead - "Get out of the way!!"

Orange Cat and Wang Shixin looked up, a girl about 20 years old opened the window, leaned out of the window with her upper body out, and jumped out after shouting.

"Don't!" Wang Shixin was shocked.

The tip of the orange cat's tail swung "wind", a strong wind rolled up, wrapped around the girl and fell aside, after landing on the ground, Wang Shixin saw the girl's appearance clearly - very white, with short ear-length hair, slender figure, wearing loose light pink pajamas.

"Huh?" The girl touched her body in surprise when she landed, and then stood up and stretched her limbs to make sure she was not injured.

"Are you crazy?" Wang Shixin said angrily.

"You're crazy!" the girl glared at him, turned her face to see the orange cat, and exclaimed in surprise: "Big fat orange, are you here too?

Saying that, he came over to hug him, and the orange cat hurriedly walked a few steps away from the girl's hands, and the girl was dissatisfied: "You have no conscience, I have also fed you." ”

The orange cat meowed twice, and had to squat there honestly, and the girl grinned and stretched out her magic hand again, rubbing the orange cat that was no longer dodging, "You seem to be fat again! Someone is feeding you delicious food? Strange to have to come to me." ”

The orange cat helplessly endured the girl's up and down hands, touched herself all over the body, and then screamed twice, reminding her that she was almost done.

The girl was finally satisfied and let go of her hand, looking at Wang Shixin, who was carrying Xu Guan: "Hey, what are you carrying?"

Wang Shixin didn't know whether to answer or not, his eyes looked at the orange cat, and when he saw the orange cat nodding, he told the girl that it was a person.

"What are you carrying a person on?" The girl blinked her eyes curiously, as if she knew that Wang Shixin couldn't answer this question, and turned her head and asked the orange cat again: "Big fat orange, what is he doing with a person?"

The orange cat gave Wang Shixin a look, Wang Shixin understood, put Xu Guan on the ground, and the girl squatted down happily to observe. It brought Xu Guan here, just to find this girl, but she fell out of the window, and this appearance was a bit unexpected for the orange cat.

Wang Shixin secretly leaned into the orange cat's ear and said, "She didn't notice that you are different from ordinary cats?"

"Can't you see that her brain is different from that of ordinary people?" The orange cat rolled her eyes, looked at the girl who was still curiously studying Xu Guan, and whispered to Wang Shixin: "She knows a night fish, wait a minute, you ask him to call that night fish." ”

"She's just an ordinary human girl, don't you know the Nightfish, won't she be afraid?" Wang Shixin said curiously.

"Does she know what it means to be afraid?" the orange cat felt that Wang Shixin's IQ was really worrying.

A person and a cat were looking at the silhouette of the girl and whispering, Wang Shixin suddenly saw that the girl was about to reach out to reveal the yellow charm on Xu Guan's face, Wang Shixin took three steps and took one step over, grabbed her wrist, and said, "This can't be moved!"

"Just look at it, just take a look. The girl's tone of discussion, taking advantage of Wang Shixin's inattention, quickly removed the Dao talisman with her other hand, revealing Xu Guan's shriveled and thin face.

"Dry corpse?" the girl said strangely.

"Paste the talisman back!" Wang Shixin was afraid that she would tear the talisman and didn't dare to grab it.

Xu Guan suddenly opened his eyes, revealing blood-red eyeballs. "Dangerous!" Wang Shixin pushed the girl away and stepped on Xu Guan's chest to prevent him from jumping up suddenly.

"He's sick!" cried the girl.

"Yes, he's sick. Do you know a friend of Nightfish, ask him to treat this patient? Wang Shixin said, took back the Dao talisman from Xiao Ai's hand, and pasted it back on Xu Guan's face.

"Friend Nightfish?" the girl frowned, thinking very seriously, "Do you mean Bo-kun? He was sick once, similar to this man's situation. ”

"Then quickly call Bojun to treat him. ”

"I'll cure it. Don't bother Bojun. The girl grinned.

"How to cure it?" Wang Shixin was curious.

"Use my blood, by the way, do you have a knife?" The girl said very seriously: "Last time Bojun drank a cup of my blood, it was fine, but looking at this person's appearance, he is more seriously ill, and he may have to drink two cups of blood to get better." ”

"It's better for you to call Bo Jun. Wang Shixin said kindly.

The orange cat also meowed twice next to her and rubbed the girl's sleeve.

"Okay, okay. The girl had no choice but to take out her mobile phone from her pocket and make a call: "Hey, Bojun? Well, it's me Xiao Ai." I met a patient like you, well, yes, yes, it's very serious, and it needs to be treated immediately, well, come on, I'll wait for you,"

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Ai glanced at Wang Shixin: "That's okay." ”

Wang Shixin rolled his eyes, feeling very innocent, he looked at the orange cat and said, "Senior, can I go?"

The orange cat pointed at Xu Guan with his eyes, looked up twice, and finally looked at Wang Shixin's eyes, as if asking: Do you understand what I mean?

"What do you mean?" Wang Shixin touched the back of his head.

The orange cat sighed, and had no choice but to speak: "Carry Xu Guan upstairs and then go." ”

"Oh, I see. Wang Shixin finally understood.

Xiao Ai screamed violently, and his tone was full of excitement: "Ah! Big fat orange, you can speak, it's amazing!"

The orange cat shook her head helplessly, thinking that after hiding for so long, she finally couldn't hide it. Xiao Ai excitedly came over and rubbed the orange cat's head, pulled its mouth open, and studied it carefully.

The orange cat surprisingly didn't resist, just looked like he was loveless, and knew that he would be in trouble in the future.

The orange cat raised his paw and pushed Xiao Ai's hand away: "I have time to play again, it's important to save people now." ”

"Yes, yes, it's important to save people. Xiao Ai nodded repeatedly.

"You take him upstairs to carry the patient upstairs and wait for Bojun to come. Hurry up. The orange cat said to Xiao Ai.

"What about you?"

The orange cat looked up and said, "I'm still used to coming in through the window." ”

"Okay, then I'll go upstairs and wait for you. Xiao Ai excitedly took Wang Shixin up from the corridor.

The orange cat waited for Xiao Ai to enter the corridor, and then climbed up the wall.

A year ago, when he first came, Xiao Ai was so surprised to see it that he hurriedly took out milk and ham from the refrigerator to entertain him. Because there are delicious food, he often comes to Xiao Ai, every time he comes, he can always see the food prepared for it by the windowsill, in addition to milk and ham, there are also bread, chicken thighs and luncheon meat, etc., and sometimes Xiao Ai will leave a bag of his favorite snacks for it. This time it saw a small box of fried chicken nuggets on the windowsill.

The orange cat jumped into the window, and when he saw that Xiao Ai and Wang Shixin hadn't come up yet, he stopped by the window and lowered his head to eat fried chicken nuggets.

During the time she met Xiao Ai, Orange Cat found out that she knew a night ray, but Bo Jun didn't hurt Xiao Ai, so he didn't care too much. Bojun also knew that the orange cat was a monster, but he didn't show a closer attitude, and the orange cat didn't take the initiative to talk to him. So the two of them don't know each other.

The taste is not bad. The orange cat thought so, and after eating a small box of chicken nuggets, Xiao Ai opened the door and walked in.

Xiao Ai lives in a two-bedroom house, and she took Wang Shixin through the living room to the bedroom. Wang Shixin left after letting go of Xu Guan.

After a while, Bojun came and jumped in from the window, he was about one meter eight tall, his lean body was tightly wrapped in a black leather coat, the muscle lines on his neck extended from the leather coat, and the whole person was as solid and powerful as steel bar.

Xiao Ai held his forehead: "Why do you all like to come in through the window?"

"Get used to it. "The orange cat is lying on the edge of the bed.

"It's faster. Bojun looked at Xu Guan lying on the bed with concern, and when he found that Xu Guan was still angry, he breathed a sigh of relief and said thank you to the orange cat.

"You're welcome. The orange cat waved his paws indifferently, and briefly talked about Xu Guan's situation.

"Mr. Orange Cat saved my kind, and I made a note of this favor. Bojun thanked him again.

Xiao Ai exclaimed curiously: "Hey, don't you think it's very powerful when the big fat orange can talk? ”

"Because we know each other, too. Bo Jun touched Xiao Ai's head a little dotingly and said, "Thank you this time." ”

"Hee-hee, what kind of politeness between friends. Xiao Ai was very happy to hear Bojun say this.

"It's not early, you can rest quickly. I've got to take him back. Bojun carried Xu Guan.

"Come and play with me sometime!" Xiao Ai shouted.

"It's definitely coming. Bojun smiled at her, waved at the orange cat, and walked out of the window.

Unlike Xiao Ai, who lives in the old city, Bojun lives in a low-rent house in an urban village. He carried Xu Guan and ran quickly between the eaves of the roof, and returned to his residence for about half an hour.

He put Xu Guan on the ground, Xu Guan was tied with a straw rope sturdily, and his face and body were messily pasted with Taoist talismans, and he took off the talismans casually.

Under normal circumstances, Taoist talismans have a certain suppressive effect on aliens, but for aliens with high Taoist skills, shallow Taoist talismans cannot cause harm.

Bo Jun revealed that the ordinary talismans were easily removed, and the talisman that was pasted on Xu Guanzheng's face encountered some problems. The moment the fingers touched the rune paper, a mysterious force rushed into the body, and the feeling of powerlessness quickly spread throughout the body, and the body sat on the ground softly. Bo Jun was startled, tore off the talisman and hurriedly threw it aside, gasping for several breaths before he eased up a little.

The Taoist who drew this talisman is really profound. Bo Jun had palpitations, if he was sealed by this talisman, he would definitely not be able to break free. What he didn't know was that the talisman at this moment had lost its golden mang, and ten percent of the talisman power had gone to seven or eight.

Bo Jun took out two bags of blood from the refrigerator in the corner, opened the small mouth and squeezed out the blood from Xu Guan's mouth, half of the blood flowed down his throat and eyes, and the other half leaked out from the corner of his mouth.

The first bag of blood was quickly filled, and Bo Jun poured the second bag of blood down, and after a while, Xu Guan's face finally improved, and his breathing was not so weak. Bojun took out two more bags of blood and poured them all into Xu Guan.

After another half an hour, Xu Guan's complexion began to return to normal, and his eyes slowly opened, looking at the roof.

"Are you alright?" Bojun leaned in front of his face.

Xu Guan moved his throat, swallowed the remaining blood, and responded. He felt weaker now than when he first woke up, and his arms swayed weakly twice, and Bojun saw what he meant, so he sat him up and leaned his back on the sofa next to him.

Xu Guan thanked him, and then saw a pool of blood on the ground, and couldn't hide his disappointment: "In order to save Yu, you actually injured a person's life?"

"Nope. Bo Jun picked up an empty blood bag that had been drunk: "A small part of the blood was taken out of the human body and stored in this bag. ”

After a brief explanation from the orange cat, he knew that Xu Guan was a person from four hundred years ago, so he patiently explained to him: "Now that the times have changed, there is no need to kill people and suck blood like before." After communicating with the inn, the Nightfish clan joined forces with the human administrators to create a special blood collection agency. In today's parlance, it is called a blood donation station, where humans donate a portion of their blood, put it in a blood bag for preservation, and then pass it on to the nightfish. Nightrays receive a certain amount of blood each month to survive. ”

"Ordinary humans know about the existence of the Nightfish, and they are afraid that it is too late, how can they be willing to sacrifice their blood to the Nightfish?"

"For the general human public, of course, the existence of nightfish should be concealed. What is claimed to them is only to temporarily store the blood, and when someone is injured and has lost too much blood and needs to replenish the blood, the blood can be removed and used. In fact, some of it is used by humans themselves. ”

"I see. Xu nodded. Until this secret is known to the public, it is indeed a good way for humans to live peacefully with the nightfish.

"In fact, before I had this institution, I had never hurt anyone. Bojun said: "In the past, life was not good, and some poor families were hungry and cold, so I exchanged ten bowls of rice for one bowl of blood for them. ”

Xu nodded from the point of view, it turned out that Bojun, like himself, was unwilling to harm the lives of others in order for himself to survive. It's just that there are too few like him.

Xu Guan suddenly remembered something, hugged his fists and said: "I have been chatting for a long time, and I haven't asked Your Excellency for your name." Then he introduced himself.

Bo Jun also reported his name and surname, and recounted the phone call he received from Xiao Ai until he resisted back to his residence.

"I see. Thank you Brother Bojun for saving your life. ”

"You're welcome. ”

"Brother Bojun drank blood but did not hurt people's lives, so he admired it very much. Xu Guan said from the bottom of his heart, as a kuiba, he is very familiar with the feeling of tearing people's arteries, warm blood spurting into the mouth, moisturizing the throat that has been dry for a long time, giving both mental and physical stimulation and satisfaction, this kind of thing is addictive.

"Sir, it's overrated. Bojun sighed and continued: "When it's not a full moon night, I often forget that I'm already a night and think I'm still a person. ”

"Brother Bojun was also bitten to become a night ray?"

"Are you too?" Bojun was a little surprised.

"It's old. Xu Guan smiled bitterly, "I happened to meet a few night rays who were evil, and I had a fight with them, and I was bitten without paying attention, so I became like this." ”

"Then we're all the way. Seeing that Xu Guan didn't quite understand, Bo Jun explained: "Inside the Night Rays, people like us are not very looked down upon by those Night Devils themselves, that is, the Innate Night Rays. We are often called mongrels by them, because they are infected to become night rays, and their blood is not pure. ”

"There is such a thing?" Xu Guan was a little strange.

"People think they're purebred, so they're noble. It's normal to look down on us. Bo Jun suddenly laughed happily as he spoke, and continued: "What's more interesting is that after the hybrid and the hybrid are combined, the offspring born is also a night ray, and the night ray of this kind of origin also thinks very highly of itself, and looks down on the mongrel night ray, and even looks down on his parents, and always feels that he is also a noble purebred night ray." But do you know what a real purebred nightray is called?"

"What's it called?"

"Wild species. ”

"Hahahaha. Xu Guan laughed, laughed and coughed again.

Bojun patted Xu Guan's back, turned around and took out a bag of blood from the refrigerator and handed it to him, Xu Guan touched the cold blood bag in surprise, Bojun smiled and helped him tear a small sip, Xu Guan drank the cool blood, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said with emotion: "Yu has been out of touch with the world." ”

"Take your time, you'll get used to it. Bojun encouraged him and said, "In a few days, you are almost recovered, and I will take you to the inn to apply for the certificate." ”

"Proof what?"

"Prove that you live in this world and are one of us. The certificate shows that you recognize the authority of the inn and enjoy the protection of the inn, and if someone wants to hurt you, the inn will intervene. ”

"Thank you, Brother Bojun. Xu Guan hugged his fists again and thanked him, and said in his heart, time has passed, and the old man in the inn is probably no longer there.
