Chapter 135: The Celebration of the Monsters
At 6:20 p.m., it was cloudy and rainy, and it was overcast, and it looked as if it was already night. At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the roof of the building.
It was an ordinary-looking man, and on his shoulder stood a strangely shaped "bird", the size of an eagle, and looked like a legendary phoenix, and the rain hit it, and the rain was quickly evaporated. A cloud of water vapor swirled around it.
They are the "Vine Golden Moss" Jin Ying and his fire spirit beast "Vermilion Bird" Yan'er, Jin Hotaru casts a water avoidance spell beside him, but Yan'er doesn't care about such a rainstorm at all.
They looked up at the sky and counted the hours. Although the downpour continued to rain for a day and night, the rain will definitely stop before the moon comes out tonight, because the monsters living in this city, not only Jin Hotaru and Yan'er, all the monsters definitely don't want to miss the moonlight on the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the Gengshen year.
A thing that looked like a tiger and a dog suddenly appeared from the floor and ran quickly towards the golden firefly. Although his body was exposed to the roof, the four claws were still sunk in the concrete of the building, which did not affect its running speed, and when it approached the golden firefly, it suddenly raised its forelimbs and turned into a long-haired, clawed youkai, and then into a tall, handsome human man.
He is none other than Jin Ying's only friend, "梼杌" Ji Ao, and it is clear that even if he is the kind of guy who is keen on eating, drinking and having fun, he is not willing to miss tonight.
Ji Ao stood beside Jin Ying, before the two had time to speak, it was pouring rain just now, and now it suddenly stopped, and the dark and heavy clouds in the sky seemed to be suddenly erased by something, and quickly receded towards the western sky, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Ji Ao grinned and said, "Oh, it turned out to be that zombie." She's hot-tempered, but it's best for her to do it. ”
Zombies are also known as droughts, such as the zombie that transformed into Lu Qing, a doctor at the People's Hospital of Lidan City, this drought, has been cultivated for hundreds of years, and her spells are very superb, as long as she wants, she can easily make every state and county mourn and have no water, and let her stop this downpour, which is the most suitable.
After the sky cleared strangely, Ji Ao and Jin Ying both vaguely saw "human figures" faintly appearing on the tops of dozens of scattered skyscrapers in the distance. Everyone tacitly has the same idea, that is, they want to receive the moonlight of Gengshen Year on the roof of the unobstructed building.
With a "pop", a white nine-tailed fox quickly jumped onto the roof, it rolled in place, and immediately turned into a boy about ten years old, he took a deep breath and said, "My mother always chatters endlessly, it's too wordy." So I put a spell on her to go to bed quickly, so I could sneak out. Luckily, I didn't delay this big event. ”
His name is Zhang Lei, and he is a nine-tailed fox from the country of Qingqiu. The mother in his mouth is an ordinary human woman. Although mothers and sons are not of the same kind, they live happily ever after.
Ji Ao, Jin Ying, and Yan'er greeted him with a smile, but they wouldn't waste time in greeting each other now, because the moon had already risen.
The bright moon rises from the horizon, and human beings are in a hurry in the city, and they have no time to enjoy the beautiful moon, but in the eyes of the monster who has been waiting for a long time, tonight's moonlight, as if there are hundreds of billions of olives, is tied by the moonlight of the silver thread, and hangs down on the earth.
"Emperor Flow!"
All animals and plants that wish to become demons through cultivation must accept the essence of the moonlight, and it must be the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the Gengshen year to take effect, because the moonlight on this day contains "Emperor Flowing Pulp". It is only by absorbing it that one can be reborn, gain mind, and begin to practice spells.
Humans and innate beings are the exception of demons, but if demons absorb it, then one night's cultivation is equivalent to absorbing the essence of the sun and moon for decades.
All youkai will not miss a rare opportunity to cultivate once in sixty years. The youkai began to capture and collect these things called "Tei Ryuz" and incorporate them into their bodies, and at nights when humans were not noticing, the youkai happily spent the show once in sixty years.
When the sun rises in the east, after a hard night's work, the yokai finally stop their "celebration".
"Huh......" Zhang Lei sat on the ground tiredly, panting, "I'm so tired." ”
Ji Ao walked over to the railing and watched as the city began to function. He said with emotion: "After absorbing the "Emperor Flowing Pulp" overnight, I don't know how many creatures will become our kind. ”
Jin Ying nodded in agreement, he fully understood that last night was a "birth" night, he raised Yan'er high and cheered loudly: "Yan'er, happy birthday!"
"Shadow, happy birthday!" Yan'er rubbed his little head excitedly on his shoulder, and Yan'er said with a grin, "We saw Emperor Liulu again together, and had another birthday." ”
"Oh, is Yan'er celebrating her birthday today?" Zhang Lei rushed over and hugged Yan'er into his arms, he stroked Yan'er's head and asked, "What gift do you want me to give you?"
"I want a new cartoon bed, as well as a fairy tale book, a VCD player, snacks and a good beef ......" Yan'er was not polite at all, saying a lot of gifts he wanted, poor Zhang Lei had already begun to frown, looking through his deflated wallet.
Ji Ao patted Jin Ying's shoulder and asked suspiciously, "Do you have a birthday?"
"Well, yes, Yan'er and I have seen Emperor Flowing Pulp for the fifth time. We're 300 years old......"
The primeval forest is home to flora, fauna and monsters, and the swamp is a paradise for weeds and snakes, insects, fish, shrimps, and waterfowl. The miasma is like a thick mist, and as the sun shines through the dense foliage in the early morning, various waterfowl fly around the water, and these animals live in harmony in their respective territories.
There are clusters of vine gold moss growing in the swamp, in the air like countless fireflies gathered together, each egg-like size, forming a golden flower, as long as it is stained with water, it will glow, the water surface is like a layer of gold, the wisps are like a golden chrysanthemum, day and night, emitting a warm golden light, so the vine gold moss is known as "the night pearl in the water".
In the swamp reflected by the early morning sun, the vine golden moss shines even more, and a cluster of vine golden moss is bathed in rain and dew and sunlight as usual, but today I don't know why, there is a Suzaku egg left in the forest, and this egg is placed on it.
Suddenly, a snake passed by the vine moss, and the snake detoured because of the shining golden light emitted by the vine gold moss, and the vine gold moss subconsciously shook its petals, wrapped the petals into a vermilion bird egg, and protected it.
The swamp is rich in flora and is home to a variety of animals, including mammals, birds, reptiles...... If this egg had been placed somewhere else, it would have been eaten long ago. Thankfully, the weather has been sunny and there has been no rain recently, and the egg has survived safely thanks to the light and temperature of the golden moss day and night.
The eggs of the Vermilion Bird are hatched by spiritual power, and the faint spiritual power of the vine golden moss makes the Vermilion Bird Egg slowly have some movement.
One morning, the egg suddenly made a slight rattle. First, a slit opened in the eggshell, then a pointed beak protruded from it, and finally, its shell split in half, and a small moving thing trembled and stood up.
The cranberry stared curiously at the little thing that had just come out of the eggshell. It's like something flying through the air, its body and feathers exude warmth, and the cranberry moss feels warm and comfortable.
Even at night, the light of the golden moss is still like a warm sun, covering the little red bird with a layer of soft and bright colors, so that the little red bird can't help but want to get closer, this little red bird is very dependent on the brightness and temperature of the red golden moss.
From the moment the little Suzaku was born, the first thing I saw was the vine golden moss, the vine golden moss embraced it day and night with flower petals, it was always so bright and warm, it had regarded the vine golden moss as its parents, it snuggled in the arms of the vine golden moss, and never left half a step.
This little Vermilion has just hatched, it can't eat by itself, let alone forage, it must rely on spiritual power to survive, but it has no parents, it can only rely on the vine golden moss around it, but the spiritual power of the vine golden moss is too weak, it is difficult to maintain the vitality of the little Vermilion, one day, two days...... As time passed, the cry of the little Suzaku became weaker and weaker.
