Chapter 492: Wood Demon Couple
Jin Hotaru opened his mouth wide, he really didn't know that the kraken had this ability, and couldn't help muttering: "I thought she did something to you, so ......"
Ji Ao leaned in and asked expectantly, "What did you do to her?"
"Scared her away. Jin Hotaru replied honestly.
"No idea," Ji Ao shook his head in disappointment, jumped up and stretched his long waist, "It's been a long time since I've drunk so much." Okay, it's time to get down to business, you tell Li Yao, I'm still coming to eat at night, recently Zhang Yatou has been running to her aunt's house, saying that it is tutoring her cousin, and she always doesn't come back on time to cook. ”
As he spoke, he waved at the golden firefly and swaggered across the wall and disappeared.
Jin Hotaru looked at Ji Ao's back, sat there for a while, and then shook his head, thinking that the next time he saw that kraken, he would have to apologize to her.
Hai Liqing sat in the café, fiddling with her glass. She loves not only wine, but also coffee, tea, drinks, and juices, and only that person can make her willing to wait so long and pay for these drinks without getting any income from them.
After waiting for about half an hour, she finally saw a man through the glass window, and she waved to him happily.
"I'm sorry, Miss Hai, I'm late," Lin Yongxin walked over, with a few obvious scars on his face and gauze wrapped around his hands, he saw Hai Liqing staring at his hands, so he explained with a wry smile, "I was plotted by others." ”
"Who were the people last time?" asked Hai Liqing in a low voice.
When she first met Lin Yongxin, he happened to be besieged on the beach by more than a dozen people because of the sewage discharged from the extraction factory, and it was Hai Liqing who set off the waves and swept those people into the sea, which saved him.
"No, it's from another factory this time," Lin Yongxin said casually, obviously used to this kind of thing, "By the way, I asked you ...... last time."
"I brought it," Hai Liqing took out a black plastic bag from her side and handed it to him, she hid her emotions well, but the anger in her eyes still couldn't be completely hidden, "It's not just fish, but also seaweed and shellfish." ”
Lin Yongxin opened the bag, glanced at the deformed creatures inside, and took a deep breath excitedly: "Now there is evidence to sue them for those garbage! They keep saying that their factories do not pollute the environment, so why do these marine creatures become like this." See what else they have to say in front of this evidence. ”
"Will it shut down their factory?" asked Hai Liqing with concern.
"I don't think so......" Lin Yongxin thought for a while, "but at least it will stop them from discharging sewage that exceeds the standard." ”
"Exceeding the standard......" Hai Liqing sighed secretly. It seems that the standards of human beings can never be the same as those of other creatures.
"By the way, your reward," Lin Yongxin took out the money from his pocket with his uninjured hand, although they had just known each other, he already knew that Hai Liqing was a person who liked money very much, "Thank you for finding this for us, it has helped us a lot." ”
This was the third time she had found contaminated animal and plant specimens from the sea for him, and he was willing to pay for all he had for the evidence that would stop the factories from polluting the sea.
Hai Liqing shook her head.
"Don't you really need money?"
"If you need my help in the future, come to me, I'm leaving. Hai Liqing smiled sincerely, completely ignoring Lin Yongxin's surprised gaze, waved her hand at him, got up and left.
"If humans were like you, I wouldn't have to spend all day making money...... It's been a long time since I've traveled, and I really want to see penguins and kangaroos......" Hai Liqing stretched, remembering that there were still "tour groups" waiting for her at home, and how could she have time to think about anything else.
She was still reluctant to take the car, and walked all the way down the street to the beach.
When she was bouncing down the street, she happened to meet Li Yao who was out shopping. Li Yao warmly invited her back to her house for tea, and as soon as Hai Liqing heard that there was free tea to drink, she immediately followed Li Yao back happily.
Li Yao brought Hai Liqing a cup of tea, then sat down next to her and looked at her with a smile and said, "Jin Ying wants to apologize to you." ”
"Jin Hotaru?ah, no, no. Hai Liqing's face immediately turned pale, "Don't let him see me." He was terrible, and from that day on, I had nightmares about being eaten by him every day!"
Hai Liqing has a natural ability, and the monsters she meets are good to her, although this ability is ineffective against humans, but because of her beautiful appearance, the humans she meets are also very good to her.
Like Jin Hotasu's fierce face, she saw it for the first time in her life, and now she still shuddered when she thought about it. She couldn't help but think, Ji Ao is so kind and generous, how can he have such a friend as Jin Ying? By the way, when will he see Ji Ao again? He is so generous......
"Jin Ying is a vegetarian!" Li Yao immediately turned cold and retorted to her unceremoniously, she couldn't listen to others say bad things about her Jin Ying.
"Anyway, I'm afraid he's scared to death, I don't want him to apologize to me, just don't let him see me. "It's still her own life that matters, Hai Liqing has the courage to admit her timidity without hesitation.
Li Yao shrugged, she was really angry and funny, it was the first time she had met a monster who was not afraid of Ji Ao but afraid of Jin Ying.
"Thank you for the tea, I have to go," Hai Liqing sat for a while, thinking about where to get the money next, so she stood up and said goodbye, "I still have to find a place to make money!"
Li Yao couldn't help but ask, "Are you very short of money?"
"Yes, I have a crush on something, but it costs a lot of money to buy it, so I'm leaving, bye-bye! Thank you for your tea. Hai Liqing said, bouncing away.
"It turns out that there are monsters in this world who earn money by working like Jin Hotaru. Li Yao looked at Hai Liqing's disappearing back, and fell into deep thought with her cheeks in confusion.
Ji Ao showed his original form and gestured to Jin Hotaru, who turned into a cluster of golden fireflies the size of an egg and passed through the high wall in front of him.
Inside the high walls is a large courtyard overgrown with weeds and miscellaneous trees, and a path that winds its way to a small Western-style western-style building with three stories high.
Jin Ying and Ji Ao walked one after the other towards the small building.
On both sides of the entrance of the European-style small building, there are two stone lions in a nondescript manner. Ji Ao glanced at the exquisitely carved and majestic lion, and sighed: "I knew I would bring your Yan'er with me." ”
"It and Zhang Lei and a lot of monsters went together to celebrate that you were defeated by a woman. Jin Hotaru told him truthfully.
"Hmph, it's better not to let me know who went with them!" Ji Ao gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, then waved his hand at Jin Ying, signaling him to step back.
He stepped forward himself, stopped two meters away from the stone lion, pinched a spell with both hands, and muttered something in his mouth. Suddenly, the eyes of the two stone lions lit up red, their tails wagged, and they raised their paws and jumped in a posture.
A figure suddenly jumped down from a nearby big locust tree and swooped straight at Ji Ao's heart, and the two stone lions also roared wildly and pounced on Ji Ao.
Ji Ao clasped his hands together, only to see the ground shaking violently, and the earth and stones turned up, enveloping the stone lions. Although the stone lion rushed forward with great strength, it still couldn't withstand the continuous accumulation of dirt and surrounded it, and finally stopped less than half a step away from Ji Ao, unable to move anymore.
Ji Ao swiped his fingers, and the ground under his feet immediately cracked a bottomless gap, and the two stone lions that couldn't move fell.
Ji Ao flicked his fingers dexterously, the ground immediately closed, the earth and stones returned to their places, and even the few broken bluestone slabs returned to their original places, and there was no way to see that there had been such a huge change on the ground just now.
Ji Ao turned his head and saw that Jin Hotaru was retracting the shadow knife, and at his feet was the corpse of a six-clawed youkai with a different head.
"Hmph, seeing Jin Ying standing behind me, he dared to sneak attack me, what a fool with no brains. Ji Ao pursed his lips at the corpse, walked up the steps, and stretched out his hand to push open the door.
The house was as dirty and desolate as the yard. The broken furniture was covered with dust, the mottled walls were moldy in some places, the broken chandelier was hanging from the half-collapsed ceiling, swaying in the wind, and there were cobwebs everywhere, and the thick curtains were faded but still blocked the windows, and there was almost no light in the room, which looked ghostly.
There are several pale Western-style plaster statues around, and the figures in the oil paintings on the walls look coldly at the visitors.
"Poof!" Ji Ao couldn't help laughing, kicking away the broken chair lying under his feet, "Old Liu, are you going to change your career to become a vampire, how did you make the house like this." ”
"Hehe, isn't this popular now? I'm not old yet, I'm not catching up with the trend. With the laughter of the old man, the room gradually turned into a traditional Chinese hall, with three entrances and three exits, and a small garden outside the hall.
At the table of the Eight Immortals in the hall, an old man wearing a flower T-shirt, holding a faucet crutch in his left hand, and holding a dry tobacco pouch in his right hand, greeted them warmly with a smile: "Ji boy, Jin Xian's nephew, come and sit inside." Old woman, serve tea. ”
A blonde woman with heavy makeup walked out of the back hall, holding the long hem of a low-cut evening dress in one hand and a mahogany inlaid silver tray with two cans of Coke in the other, serving drinks to Ji Ao and Jin Ying, and throwing a wink at Ji Ao.
Ji Ao gave her a thumbs up: "Auntie, your new look is good." ”
"The slave family is only 1,200 years old, don't be there, the eldest mother is short, it's really tormenting the slave family. The girl sneered coquettishly, sat on the old man's lap, and put her hands around his neck.
Jin Hotaru hurriedly pretended to drink water and covered her face with a bottle. Every time he saw this wood demon couple, he would chill all over his body, and he really didn't know why. This old man Liu had a relationship with Yuan Shi Tianzun three hundred years ago, and after knowing the relationship between Jin Ying and Yuan Shi Tianzun, he relied on the elders to sell the old.
An honest person like Jin Ying will not argue with him, but every time he meets them and his wife, he will stay away, if something doesn't happen now, Jin Ying will not come to their house.
Ji Ao drank the drink, pinched the bottle casually, and then got to the point: "How long have they trapped you?"
Old man Liu put away his laughter and said, "It's been almost a month...... If you don't find out, the two of us will ......."
"It's been a month, and you're really not small!" Ji Ao slapped the table, "You recruited?"
"No, if I had spoken out, they would have been silenced a long time ago, would I still be able to talk to you here?"
"It's good if you don't have it," Ji Ao stood up and walked out, "This small western-style building was built during the Republic of China, and it has always been rumored that this place is haunted, and few humans dare to come in, even if it is other monsters, they can't enter for a while." Don't act rashly, leave the outside affairs to us. ”
"Of course, of course," Seeing Ji Ao take care of the matter, Old Man Liu happily sent them outside the door, "It's no problem for us to use the things stored at home for another twenty years, waiting for your good news, but ......"
"But what?"
"But 'that' may have been taken by them. ”
"What's that?"
