Chapter 14 Mellow Brewing
Tibetan jade for 300 years, the mirror is open. When drinking and indulging in love songs, let loose the wreckage.
The wonderful liquor is intoxicating, and the fragrant flowers are refreshing. No boat can still follow the eight immortals, and visit Penglai in the wind.
……
"So, technophilia destroys the world." I, Han Qi, a monster who called Chi Chen a master but not his apprentice, complained to someone.
This is the Land of Spilled, oh no, the "Land of Rituals". Chi Chen only comes and goes, so it's not easy to meet him. After returning from the Taoyuan Realm, I was always very busy, and I barely had time to meditate quietly for a while, so this was the first time I had spoken to him again.
"You seem to be idle, huh?" Chi Chen said.
"Yes, it's salty, salty enough to pickle salted fish." Look at my expression: →_→
"Uh-huh, that's good......"
"Don't digress for me! I realized that you were the culprit of the destruction of ancient humans! No wonder you were vague at the time! ”
"Got it, what can I do?" Chi Chen smiled and said, "Do you still want to eradicate me on behalf of justice?" ”
“……”
"The blood of Naga." I suddenly said, "There is still a way to make that kind of thing." Sooner or later...... Human beings will definitely create something like this again, and you and I know the essence of human beings. Last time it was you, next time I don't know who it will be; The last time it was killed and injured was the human itself, and the next time it may be against the youkai. ”
"So what do you want to do, build it first? Don't ask me about the recipe, I forgot about it! ”
"How could you forget? That's your mistake, master. Why hasn't it been able to erase all of humanity, this imperfect recipe has caused the youkai to still live in the shadow of humans, and they can't live in fear all day. These words don't seem to be addressed to Chi Chen, but to his own heart.
"You've thought a lot, Hanji. Do what you want, and there's nothing I can do to help you. Chi Chen said, turning around and disappearing into the vast snow.
I whispered to someone I didn't know, "Then let's destroy humanity."
……
I don't really understand why I do this hard work, what kind of grudge do humans have against me, why do we want to destroy them, why! It's hard to say, but since Qingqing Shiyu told me those words, the thoughts in my heart are actually emotions that I haven't felt for many years - fear. Humanity, terrible, they are like a plague, which in the end can only bring destruction. Assuming that the ancient humans had not been destroyed by the blood of the Naga, they would have used the weapon of damnation, and in any case, they would not have avoided falling into the abyss of destruction, and by the way, they would have destroyed other living beings. They will reproduce and develop uncontrollably until they exhaust the resources of their habitat, and then invade, expand, and reproduce again...... Constantly waging wars and disrupting order. This year is the 4000# year of the new calendar, and it is also the #th year after the end of "that war", and we don't want a repeat of the tragedy, but it will almost be inevitable.
There was a man who understood it earlier than I did. But he never said it explicitly, he just worked his own. Chiyou, a demon king who will never go down in history, has been fighting for monsters all his life. Maybe I'm talking dirty, but to be honest, I'm not as good as a thousandth of him.
Now, leave his unfinished business to me.
……
Today, my small shop that has been in business for hundreds of years is closing. Embarrassingly, I still can't afford Kapok's salary.
Kapok:......
Me: "Gluttony, get back to me!" It's because you're always in arrears that I can't afford to pay for my drinks! ”
The glutton, who was about to slip away, drooped his head and turned around gloomily: "No money......"
"Less of this! If you don't pay back the money, you will be ready to eat Xiang's consciousness! ”
"Boss, Poor Dao is really just here to eat today, and he didn't bring a ...... with him" Gluttony was about to cry.
At this moment, five and a half feet suddenly rushed over, with tears in his eyes: "Pay the bill, pay the bill!" They've all paid it back! As he spoke, he threw me a large bag of rattling silver taels. I also burst into tears: "Loved ones!"
I walked out of the room and into the lobby. The room was full of people, oh no, youkai. Everyone smiled at me, and I smiled: "These grandsons are finally willing to pay the bill!"
The little white wolf said happily: "You are going to be closed, we have to make up the money we owe you even if we rob the house."
Da Chun (to be honest, this is really not a pseudonym) said: "It's finally closing, congratulations." Why do I feel that your words are so wrong?
"I've convinced you. And this guy," I squinted, "I guess I don't know what money is." ”
Mirage towards me, smiling like a flower.
I glanced around: "Everyone, they're all old acquaintances, and they're almost all here." Today, let's celebrate! ”
Counting up, my small dilapidated shop with a thatched house has been open intermittently for hundreds of years, and it is still a century-old brand (no). Over the years, the store has moved around many places, but the familiar people have remained the same, and many new faces have been added. These monsters are gathered together for the sake of "righteousness", and of course, some of them owe them money because of gluttony......
This store is finally coming to an end. Any end is a new beginning, isn't it?
I said, "There is nothing else in this store except for alcohol, and I will invite you to this good wine that has been stockpiled for more than 300 years!" Kapok immediately moved out a wine jar that looked too old, and there was a commotion in the store, and I don't know what it was coaxing.
Everyone was very happy, and just about to pour wine, suddenly a birdman dragged a big net bag and broke into the store: "The express mail is here!" ”
"Oh, oh, it's cold, it's just in time~" I said happily. Fresh deep-sea fish from the East China Sea, the fish harrier demon can be easily delivered to you, from fishing to cooking, the middle process does not take more than half an hour (am I advertising). As long as the starting price is ...... Well, it doesn't matter.
"It's free, no money." Rin Yan said, "This wine is pretty good, I'll rub some of it." "Great!" I say.
The Vermilion Bird Demon Flame Zhai provides firepower, the tidal flat Demon Huang directly provides salt, and the biubiu is crackling, and after a while, a big fish will be scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma is fragrant. When you peel off the charred skin, the flesh inside is like clotted fat, which makes you feel appetizing. A group of monsters are hungry and pounce on the fish (mistakenly), and they have attacked.
Because this is a very serious novel, you can wake up to some readers who fantasize about a costume explosion plot similar to that in a well-known comic......
Full of wine and food, reciting poetry and music. Yu Zuo divination operator song:
Tibetan jade for 300 years, the mirror is open. When drinking and indulging in love songs, let loose the wreckage.
The wonderful liquor is intoxicating, and the fragrant flowers are refreshing. No boat can still follow the eight immortals, and visit Penglai in the wind.
It's a real pleasure. It is not necessary that everything people do should be meaningful, as long as they are happy.
"Lord Hanqi, after you don't open the store anymore," the little white wolf was drunk, "where will you go?" ”
"Of course, it's a crusade against humanity!" I said, "Hey, I'm serious. Most of you have heard that 'that war' is more than 4,000 years ago. Over the years, the contradictions between humans and monsters have gradually accumulated to the point of irreconcilability. I'm against war, but if the future of youkai remains in the shadow of humanity, I can't feel at ease. ”
Suddenly, there was silence in the store, and perhaps everyone was more or less touched. This is true for Kapok, for the little white wolf, and for the countless youkai who have lost their partners. As for Mirage, he is a youkai who has seen "that war" with his own eyes, and his feelings are no shallower than mine. This is what I have seen, the soil of pain will naturally bloom with the flowers of revenge, and when the contradictions accumulate to a certain extent, it will naturally trigger a new round of subversion. The time seems to be ripe. Da Chun gritted his teeth and said: "Human ......"
"Everyone, if you are willing to follow me, I can't guarantee him a bright future, but at least, he will have a present without regrets. Those who are on my side chant their names! I laughed!
"Da Chun is on your side!" "Little white wolf!" "Chilly!" "Yan Zhai!" ……
"Like, it's not bad." Mirage smiled, "Mirage? Heart. ”
Kapok stood behind me: "Kapok." ”
Chu Zihuang and Chu Zijin exchanged glances: "Chu Zihuang, Chu Zijin." ”
They didn't say anything at five and a half feet, but there was no need to doubt that our four murderers would always stand in the united front.
All of us, on the path we have chosen, will move forward hand in hand and never give up.
