Chapter 18: The First Gift
At night, in the urban garden of Meiyun City, Ye Hanyu's home was filled with a strong smell of food.
She is really a foodie, Ye Hanyu looked at the rice bowl on the table, and after a while, Chu Menghan's two bowls of rice had already entered. This was not the key point, if it weren't for the amount of food that Ye Hanyu saw Chu Menghan after leaving the mansion at noon, maybe he would have been even more surprised.
I didn't expect her to eat so much, and her figure was still so good. It's just that her skin wasn't good before, and she won't take care of it, but now it looks like the whole person is much more neat, and the amount of food is too ......
"Is there anything else......
Chu Menghan took the third bowl of finished rice and said with a smile towards Ye Hanyu.
"It's gone. Ye Hanyu opened another page of the book with his hand and said to her.
"What are you reading, I saw you were reading this book last night. Chu Menghan put down his rice bowl and came to Ye Hanyu's side. She no longer had that feeling of being afraid of him, since Ye Hanyu kissed Chu Menghan, her whole person had a special, faintly wonderful feeling for Ye Hanyu.
"A profile of the city's collectors. ”
"Look at what this is for. ”
"I didn't find any clues related to the blood stamen at the auction, so I had to start with these collections. ”
"You said before that there may be a smell of blood stamens on the artwork at the auction, but in fact it is not, the human world is so big, it is too difficult to find such a thing. ”
"It is true that there is a huge amount of energy contained in the blood-dripping stamen, and it is not easy to find it, but we can draw it out. ”
"What does this mean?" Chu Menghan was even more confused.
"In the Soul Realm, there are also seven kinds of blood spirits that can resonate with the blood-dripping stamen, all of which were created by the ancestors, so as long as you find the seven blood spirits, you can draw out the blood-dripping stamen. ”
"Seven blood spirits, are they a little better to find than that stamen?"
"I don't know, at this stage, I can only find it together, it's just one more way to find the blood stamen. ”
Ye Hanyu looked back at the book and continued, "Blood spirits will be attached to some artifacts, and it is more likely that they will be attached to these collections. ”
"This, did your Night Clan tell you?" Chu Menghan said as he looked at Ye Hanyu who was reading a book.
Who knew that Ye Hanyu replied: "No, I guessed." ”
Chu Menghan was simply amused in her heart, she didn't speak again, but quietly looked at the blood devil in front of her. He was the same as when he was in the soul realm, although he was called a blood demon, but his appearance was not terrible at all, but had some cold beauty. Compared to the current Ye Muchen, Chu Menghan seemed to prefer the silver-haired, blood-pupiled Ye Hanyu. That's what he really is.
She was afraid of him before, but now she wants to be by his side all the time, and she already feels this way. Chu Menghan, Chu Menghan, you're too unproductive. She muttered to herself. Obviously, what she likes is Yi Mingjun, but she knows that Yi Mingjun has never liked herself, everything is her one-sided lovesickness. Ever since the blood devil in front of her appeared in her eyes, everything around her had become different.
Maybe she slapped herself and let him go when Yi Mingjun saw him leave, or maybe she put it down when Yi Mingjun was dancing with Liu Ruiqi. But she admits that at this point she may have fallen in love with another person. Although they had only known each other for a month, it was only when his ice lips touched her that she really admitted her mind to herself.
"Night Cold Feather. Chu Menghan called his real name.
"Huh?"
"Can you teach me a specialty?"
"What do you mean?" Ye Hanyu closed the book.
Chu Menghan smiled and said, "Didn't you say it, I relied on your strength to win Liu Ruiqi and Yi Mingjun before, but it wasn't my own strength, so I want you to teach me a specialty and rely on myself to make others look up to it." ”
Chu Menghan's words made Ye Hanyu a little surprised, she didn't expect that she, who had always been humble, would take the initiative to ask her for advice. It's easy to learn a skill, I have a soul spell on my body, and I'm already about to reach the octave soul level, so I should learn things from the human world quickly.
"Okay, I promise you. ”
"Thank you. After Chu Menghan finished speaking, he actually took the opportunity to hug Ye Hanyu. This hug is not only to thank Ye Hanyu for taking care of her, but also to express her heart now.
The night wind in Meiyun City blew into Ye Hanyu's window, and the curtain on one side seemed to start dancing with the wind, but this solo dance was not as good as the pas de deux of Ye Hanyu and Chu Menghan in the mansion during the day.
On Sunday, when there was just a little light in Meiyun City, Chu Menghan took Ye Hanyu to a remote place. Compared to the bustling center of Meiyun City, there are not too many lights here, and even there is a bad smell in the air.
Walking on the road with Chu Menghan, Ye Hanyu saw that most of the people who lived here were some people who had no economic conditions and relied on some of their own small labor to survive. No wonder Chu Menghan was sneered at before, no wonder she didn't know how to take care of herself.
"What are you bringing me here for?"
"I haven't been home for a few days, I'll be going to school tomorrow, and I can't come back to see my grandmother now. Chu Menghan said.
"Your grandmother?"
"Yes, my grandmother is the only relative I have since I was a child, she has bad eyes, and she raised me to such a big age. ”
"What about your parents?"
Chu Menghan was a little disappointed and shook his head: "I don't know, since I can remember, my relatives are only grandma." ”
"Let's go, go meet your grandma. Ye Hanyu said to Chu Menghan.
Chu Menghan took Ye Hanyu and walked a small dirt road, and then walked inside, the living conditions became worse and worse, and then the two of them stopped in front of a small earthen house, Chu Menghan pointed there and said, "That's where I live." ”
She spoke with a smile, without the slightest grievance, on the contrary, it seemed that when she mentioned her grandmother, she would have a smile on her face.
"Grandma, I'm back. Chu Menghan walked into the small earthen house first, and went to another room to find her grandmother.
The old man seemed to hear his granddaughter's voice in the back room, and he quickly responded with Chu Menghan's voice.
"Is it Menghan?" said an old voice in the room.
Then, Ye Hanyu also walked into the small earthen house, he looked at the situation inside the hut, although the things were relatively old, but there was not much dust in it, which should be the reason why Chu Menghan often cleaned it. However, it is indeed damp inside, and it doesn't feel very suitable for human habitation, and there is a pungent smell inside, which has been smelled since Ye Hanyu first came here, and it should be caused by those surrounding residents. In addition, his sense of smell as a blood demon was already extremely sensitive, so this smell was indeed a little pungent to him.
He walked towards the back room, Chu Menghan was squatting next to a bed, and above the bed, there was a gray-haired old man, her face was full of years of creases, her eyes could hardly be opened, and she should not be able to see.
"Someone is coming?" said the old man on the bed to Chu Menghan beside him.
"Well, grandma, he is my classmate, his name is Ye Muchen, and he came back with me to see you today. ”
"Hello grandma, my name is Ye Muchen. Ye Hanyu said as he walked towards Chu Menghan's grandmother.
"You see that there is nothing to entertain you at home, I can't see with my eyes, don't be surprised. It could be seen that Grandma tried very hard to get up from the bed, but she couldn't get up.
"It's okay grandma, I heard Menghan talk about you a lot, so I'll follow her to see you this time. ”
Ye Hanyu looked at the old man, she should be caused by old age and frailty, and the old man did not have any diseases, but this was a normal phenomenon for people in the human world, and there was no way to change his soul spell. In the old man's body, Ye Hanyu didn't feel the existence of a single soul spell, and her blood was far less tempting than Chu Menghan's to herself. It seems that Chu Menghan's blood does not come from her grandmother.
Because the old man's eyes couldn't see, she couldn't see what Chu Menghan looked like after she had become beautiful, otherwise, for the old man, Ye Hanyu really didn't know how to explain it.
Ye Hanyu also walked to the old man's bed, squatted down beside Chu Menghan, he stepped forward and made up, and the distance between the old man and Ye Hanyu was closer.
"Ye Muchen?" the old man called Ye Hanyu's name.
"Uh-huh, grandma. Ye Hanyu agreed.
"Listen to the voice, you're not from Meiyun City, are you? ”
"Well, I'm from another city. "Ye Hanyu can't tell the old man that he's from the soul realm.
"What's wrong, grandma?" asked Chu Menghan.
Grandma replied: "It's nothing, I just think he has a very kind feeling, maybe everyone is kind when he is old." ”
Ye Hanyu thought that it should be that the old man had been lying in bed for a long time, and he hadn't seen much except his granddaughter, so he felt kind to everyone.
Then, Ye Hanyu and Chu Menghan walked out of the small earthen house, and at the door, Ye Hanyu said:
"Otherwise, you can take grandma to me, and it will be easier for you to take care of it in a better environment over there. ”
Hearing Ye Hanyu say this, Chu Menghan's face turned red as soon as he brushed it, and he hurriedly shirked it.
"No, no, no, how can this be, it's already quite troublesome for you, how can I live with you again. ”
"Living together? You think too much, I mean let you live across the street from my house with your grandmother, because I don't like to be disturbed by others, so I've bought all the buildings from the 1st to the 22nd floor. ”
"Bought them all?" "Oh my God, Chu Menghan didn't expect this blood devil to be so rich. Only then did she know Huang Zeqiu's helplessness at that time, although he and Xiao Lei were also from the soul world, they did not have the right to use soul spells in the human world like Ye Hanyu.
"No, it's still not possible, I owe you too much for doing this, and I won't be able to pay it off in the future. Chu Menghan was still struggling.
Ye Hanyu said: "You don't need to feel indebted to me, let you move with your grandmother, one reason is to let your grandmother have a better living environment, and the other reason is that you are closer to me, and if there is news related to the blood flower stamen or blood spirit, I can know in time." ”
"After all, it's better to talk to me about a deal. ”
"Sort of. ”
Ye Hanyu continued, "After all, the blood on your body is too tempting for me, and although I haven't touched a drop yet, it has already made me crazy. He looked at Chu Menghan and smiled evilly.
"You're a terrible person. Chu Menghan acquiesced.
"By the way, I'll give you something. ”
"Huh, what?"
Immediately, Ye Hanyu took out a bracelet from his pocket and placed it in front of Chu Menghan. The bracelet is white gold, with a few small glowing gemstones on it, and it looks exquisitely made. Although it is not too valuable, it is enough to make people show a fresh and elegant temperament. For a girl of Chu Menghan's age, when she saw this thing, she was undoubtedly excited in her heart.
"This is for me?"
"Hmm. Ye Hanyu nodded and said, "This bracelet contains my soul spell, and the soul realm people can recognize that this power comes from me, so you don't have to worry that the soul realm people will trouble you again in the future." ”
"In addition to these, when you feel the soul spell related to the bloodflower stamen or when you encounter danger, the bracelet will also send a message to me, and I will appear in front of you in time. ”
Chu Menghan took the bracelet and said, "Appear in front of me, in the appearance of Ye Muchen, or the appearance of Ye Hanyu?"
Ye Hanyu replied, "Look if I want to kill someone." ”
She happily wore the bracelet that Ye Hanyu gave her, it was the first gift she had received since she was eighteen years old, she had never been so excited, this bracelet was not only a gift for her, but also a spiritual support for her to get rid of her humility in the future.
