"Ling Xiao?" I asked her tentatively. Judging by her voice and demeanor, I am 100% sure that it is my Lingxiao! We have been together for so many years, I will not admit that I am wrong!

The thing froze for a moment, and then big tears slid down, but the tears immediately turned into a small cloud of white gas, and it was gone, "Momo, you still recognize me." ”

I reached out to hug her, and she had become like this! But as soon as I touched her skin, I was roasted back by a wave of heat. I looked at my burning fingers, tears dripping down my face.

Ling Xiao was a little panicked, she wanted to help me, but she didn't dare to touch my body, and she didn't even dare to get too close to me.

"Why the hell did you make yourself like this? Why!" I cried out in despair, this was a fact that I couldn't accept! "Deal! It's a deal!" I suddenly remembered what the bartender and He Shu had said, "Tell me, what kind of deal did you make, what did you want?"

Ling Xiao stood there in a daze, and said lightly, "Freedom." ”

"What the hell is freedom! Don't you have freedom? Look at the way you look now! No one is a person, no ghost is not a ghost!" I almost broke down, and I couldn't even listen to what she said. "It must be Heshu, that monster, right, did he cast some spell on you, did he use something else to blackmail you?

Ling Xiao suddenly said coldly, "He Shu is my own brother. I'm just like him, monster. "Ling Xiao said the word monster very bluntly, which startled me.

I muttered, "How..."

Ling Xiao suddenly looked at me sadly, "Momo, actually, you have really been my best friend for thousands of years. It's a pity... In the future, we will never be friends again. ”

I suspect I've misheard, thousands of years? How old is Ling Xiao now? Bai Suzhen is also a thousand-year-old snake demon, Ling Xiao is even older than her? What does it mean to not be friends? The love between humans and demons is not allowed, and the friendship between humans and demons is also not allowed?

"I'm really worried about you. After a long silence, I finally said such a sentence.

Ling Xiao suddenly went crazy and shouted hysterically, "You humans are so stupid! I'm a monster, are you blind? Can't you see it? Worry about me? Heh, what a joke!" She suddenly fanned her wings, although the wings were broken, but they were still powerful, I was scraped and hit the wall, and suddenly my throat was sweet, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Ling Xiao's eyes suddenly rolled up, revealing a new eyeball, and there were two pupils on it! This is exactly the same as what I saw outside the Easy City! I couldn't help but gasp! Suddenly, as if Ling Xiao was trying to suppress herself, her eyeballs returned to their normal appearance, as if there was a force in her body that wanted to get rid of her restraints. Ling Xiao suddenly shouted, "You go away, I don't want to hurt you!"

I struggled to get up and reached out to open the door, but I still had a reluctance to Ling Xiao in my heart, that was my best friend! How could I just leave her like this! Big deal, big deal I'll die here! So, I turned around and hugged Ling Xiao in my arms! The burning sting pain immediately penetrated the bone marrow through the skin, Ling Xiao pushed me away hard, shouting that you are crazy or something, and suddenly she stood there, looking at me, because my body was not scarred at all!

After being quiet for a while, Ling Xiao suddenly smiled weakly.

"You don't have to do this for me. I'm just a key. ”

I opened my eyes wide and wondered I had misheard, "Key?"

Ling Xiao nodded, "I was originally just a crow, but when I was born, it was relatively early. At that time, Pangu opened the heavens and the earth, and spiritual things were born one after another through the qi of heaven and earth. That's when my parents were born. ”

Ling Xiao sat down on the sofa, which seemed to be made of special materials, and was not afraid of fire. Ling Xiao continued, "Later, Nuwa created people. O people, these creatures, selfish, brutal, they have ruined our homes. Until our young lord Wu Ya appeared. She claims to be a descendant of the Wicans and promises to build a safe haven for us. So, Hitomi Town appeared. I'm sure you already know what Hitomi Town looks like after midnight. ”

I nodded, remembering the various myths I had heard before.

"Actually, the young master has always wanted to prove that humans and demons can coexist in harmony, so when the first human inadvertently broke into here, the young master was brewing a plan. That's to get more people to stay here. She made this place like a paradise on earth, just to prove that humans and demons can coexist in harmony. Look, she did it!" Ling Xiao suddenly became excited.

"So, how do you get more humans here? The entrance here is so secret?" I thought back to how I got here, and it wasn't easy.

Ling Xiao smiled, "You're really still so perceptive. Yes, so, there is our key. The young master will release a batch of keys on a regular basis. We go and take the initiative to interact with humans, and then bring them in here and let them live here. ”

I thought to myself, isn't this just a wine tray? A beautiful woman asks a man out for dinner, then takes it to a specific restaurant, orders the most expensive wine, and then carries out blackmail.

"So, my acquaintance at school was premeditated?"

"Yes. ”

"After all these years, it was all premeditated?"

"Yes. ”

"What did you say this time to take me to your hometown to relax, just to trick me here?"

"Yes!"

I couldn't help but smile wryly, "Are you a spider spirit?" What a good web to weave!" Then I suddenly thought of some details, and I always felt that something was wrong. Suddenly, I had a flash of inspiration, "How often do you guys go out with the key? How many people are there with the key? If at your rate, it takes 4 or 5 years to trick a person in? You say it's for the harmonious coexistence of humans and demons, but a youkai like you can completely transform into a human form will not be discovered even if you completely blend in with the human world, right? Just like what is it, our neighbors have lived here for decades, and they still haven't found out that he is a monster? Why bother to create a world? Or you can disguise yourself as a tour company and pull humans in here by car! Why do you want to keep a goal for so many years? Do you bring in people here for some reason why they have to be him? Otherwise, it would be too much to explain? Also, you are soul eaters, right?" I suddenly thought of the bartender who wanted to exchange news for my soul.

Ling Xiao didn't seem to expect me to ask such a question at all, and his body couldn't help but feel slightly.

I continued, "It seems that ordinary youkai can't go out at will here, so what do you rely on to survive??" I suddenly had a rather terrifying thought, "Or, these humans are your fowl?" At that time, I didn't know where such an idea came from, but I felt as cold as falling into an ice cave.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, Ling Xiao actually grinned, she stood up and stretched a big lazy waist, "Momo is really Momo, in this case, the head will still think." Then he changed back to his human form, and he didn't seem to have any scars on his body, "I still can't fool you." She clapped her hands and nestled into the couch. Then I snapped my fingers, and I suddenly went black and lost consciousness.

When I woke up again, I found myself tied up and thrown on the sofa, a cup made of white jade, just under my neck, and He Shu and Ling Xiao were sitting opposite me.

Ling Xiao saw that I was awake, and reached out to take a blue-green sharp knife in He Shu's hand, her fingers gently touched the blade, "Actually, what I said earlier is pretty much the same!" she said in her playful tone, which gave me the illusion that we were still lying on the bed and chatting.

"In the beginning, humans and demons coexisted, but later, a man called the Descendant appeared among the human beings, and he slaughtered us and made us fear every day. Until the young lord established the town of Hitomi. Originally, every time we went out and brought people back, it was smooth until we met you!" Ling Xiao's eyes seemed to flash with sparks.

"I actually came into contact with you as early as when you were in high school, but for some reason, I couldn't get close to you! Ling Xiao said hatefully, "But the young master's order can't be disobeyed! She cast a spell on all of us called the torch bird, so that we can only obey her! At that time," Ling Xiao's color dimmed, "I fell in love with someone, but people and demons can't be together." This matter was known to the young master, and the young master said to us that as long as he can bring you back, we can be together. He agreed, and the night before he left, I lent him my Soul Pill. He left and never returned. But I lost my memory, including mana, because I didn't have the Soul Pill. The young master said to me that by making a deal with her, I could refine the Soul Pill again, and even become even stronger. So, I did. Without the Soul Pill, my physique is no different from that of a human, and I can even get in close contact with you. But some fragmentary memories always appear in my mind, and they guide me step by step to bring you here. Actually, Momo," Ling Xiao gently stroked my face, "At that time, I really regarded you as my best friend. She suddenly slashed my face with a knife, and a stream of blood dripped down my cheek into the white jade cup on the ground.

I exclaimed in pain, and Ling Xiao suddenly slapped me! "It's your weakness!

"Zuo Liang?"

"Don't put on such an expression again, looking at me, I really want to kill you right away!" Ling Xiao said hatefully, "I gave everything for him, and he actually fell in love with you!"

"Zuo Liang, is it?"

"Yes, he is the man who deceived me about the Soul Pill and left me! The first time I saw him with you, my dusty memory suddenly awakened in an instant! And he! actually begged me to forget him! It's funny! However, there is one thing you don't know," Ling Xiao smiled coldly, "Human beings can only become half-human and half-demon monsters after eating the Soul Pill. During the day, he's your boyfriend, and late at night, he's turned into a monster to suck human blood. So, he's not destined to be with you!"

I suddenly remembered that in the Suyu Pavilion, in the eyes of the young master Wu Ya, who had countless pupils, I had already seen Zuo Liang with blood on the corners of his mouth in the middle of the night.

"I asked Zuo Liang to come back to me, but he said he just wanted to be with you, even though you can only spend the day! stupid! I was already dead, I closed my eyes calmly, and at the moment my heart was only thinking about liberation! Maybe it was just a dream, and when I woke up, everything would be over.

"Sister. "I heard Ho Shu stop it.

Ling Xiao exhaled deeply and calmed down. Reaching out and taking the white jade cup, I drank my blood. In an instant, she roared in pain. I saw what seemed to be a golden shadow that was about to burst through her body. Her eyes turned blood-red at one moment, and then into those terrifying two-colored pupils. Suddenly, I heard a miserable shrill birdsong, and the shadow of a large flaming red bird with two-colored pupils pulled out of Ling Xiao's body, circled over our heads, and disappeared.

Ling Xiao's eyes were completely black, and there were no whites of his eyes. She slowly stood up and stretched, "Finally, I'm free! Do you know the fear and hardship of living with the shackles given by the young master every day? You don't know anything!"

"Sister, time is running out, if you eat her soul, even if you are a young master, you can't compete with you. ”

"Naturally!" Ling Xiao smiled evilly. "From now on, I will be the king of this Hitomi Town!"
