Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Monsters' Banquet
Kela~~
Su Sheng opened the window, and the cool breeze from the mountains poured into the house at night with a little moisture.
Although you can't use much divine power in a human position, you can still easily do it if you just fall into a deep sleep.
Naturally, Wen'er and Xiangtai at this time had been made to fall asleep by Su Shang's use of divine power, and they wouldn't wake up until morning.
Because the little monk of bluestone has not yet come, Su Sheng can only look at the night sky in a daze.
The cool breeze blew his hair and the light pink kimono draped on his body, although there was a coolness in the air, but it made people smell very comfortable, and suddenly, a faint fragrance was smelled by Su Shang.
Then I saw that the bluestone monk had appeared downstairs, and with him was a very huge monster, which looked a bit like a cyclops, very tall and strong.
"Natsume-sama, I'm here to pick you up."
Then I saw the one-eyed monster walk to the windowsill and spread out his palms outside the window, looking like he wanted Su Sheng to walk to his palms.
It's huge.
Seeing this hand that was two or three meters in size, Su Sheng exclaimed in his heart.
However, he didn't hesitate, and after climbing up the window, he walked into the palm of the one-eyed monster, and closed the window to avoid the cool breeze in the mountains at night from making Wen'er and Shota cold.
"Everyone is looking forward to tonight's banquet when they know you're coming."
When Su Shang walked from the palm of the one-eyed monster to the ground, he heard the bluestone monk praise.
"That's right, but it's rude to ask, but I still want to know what you're going to do at the banquet?"
"Drinking, playing, chatting. After all, the inventory of youkai has been around for a long time, so you can only have fun like this. ”
"I see. I'm actually looking forward to the banquet later, after all, it's probably very rare for humans to see such a scene. ”
"After all, there are only a handful of humans who can see us."
Looking at the bluestone monk who sighed like this, Su Sheng suddenly thought that humans and monsters would survive together. Whether it's on the street or elsewhere, it's a picture of peaceful coexistence together.
When I walked towards the banquet with the bluestone monk and the one-eyed monster. I don't know when Su Sheng found that a cyan stone road appeared under his feet, and lanterns appeared on both sides of the stone road.
The reddish lanterns illuminate the stone road in a line of two, and you can see that at the end of the stone road, there is a market like a market.
This must be the place where the banquet will be.
"It's rude, but please bring this, and please don't reveal your real name in front of other youkai."
When he was about to walk to the market, the little monk took out a white fox mask. And cautiously admonished.
Su Sheng nodded and put the mask on his face.
The mask was just the right size to wear, and it was very comfortable, as if it had been made just for him.
……
When he came to the end of the bluestone slab and came to the front of the market, Su Sheng realized that this was not a market, and the red buildings were like sheds, which were actually places built by the monsters to rest.
And from the little monk of Qingshi, Su Sheng also learned that such a banquet would be held every month. Only those who are permitted to participate are eligible.
The food and alcohol at the banquet were prepared by the youkai who lived in the mountains.
After learning this, Su Shang thought of the word simplicity.
Walk in the bazaar. All kinds of monsters were dazzled by Su Shang.
There are yokai with bare heads and only one mouth on their faces, there are yokai wearing masks and kimonos like Harune, and some of the yokai are completely animal-like, such as foxes, tanuki, and wolves.
There are also some female monsters who are very beautiful, and they seem to play the role of escort girls at banquets.
Not only that, but some of the youkai are wearing suits and drinking like office workers, and they look exactly like humans.
The little monk of bluestone told him. There are also some youkai who are unwilling to be lonely, so they live a human life in the human world.
Finally. The little monk of bluestone took Su Sheng into a relatively large shed.
There are also all kinds of monsters in it, and some of them give people the feeling of bulls and horses. There are also female youkai with long hair and a bold one, and there are youkai with a rotten wood mask.
Among these monsters, Su Shang found the monster that was the same as the shadow of the bushes when he first went up the mountain during the day.
These are the friends of the little monk of bluestone.
So I thought of it.
When they saw Su Shang, they all stopped touching the wine cups, and their eyes showed joy.
Su Sheng didn't feel bad because of the eyes of these monsters, and sat casually beside him with the little monk of Qingshi.
"It's been a long time since I've seen such a bold human."
"The last time I saw the kid saw me, he ran away and never saw him again."
"That's because you're too ugly!"
"Who said that! You ask Mao Changji, who of us is good-looking! ”
"Hee-hee, I wonder how long ago was the last time I spoke to a human. I completely forgot that the child was a good girl, but she still died, so human life is really short. ”
The person who said this was a female monster with long hair who looked bold, and at this time her face was slightly red, drunk, and obviously drank a lot.
"Although that's the case, but humans are very interesting, speaking of which, when I traveled to Shikoku before, I saw a person who also painted a picture of a monster, and I couldn't see the monster, hahahaha."
……
Su Shang's arrival seemed to have just given the monsters another topic, but he didn't pull him to ask questions.
It was a little different from what he had imagined.
But that's probably exactly what he wanted.
Sitting quietly on the tatami mats, listening to the yokai joking with each other, reminiscing about the past, and thinking about the yokai in their hearts is the same as humans.
"Speaking of the object of your liking, Natsume, you look like a high school student, right?" Mao Changji suddenly looked at Su Sheng and asked.
Su Sheng was stunned and nodded with a smile: "En." ”
"Hehe, so you have a favorite object, don't you? I know, you humans are called 'young youth' when you were in high school. ”
Although Su Sheng hadn't heard of humans being called like this in high school, he wouldn't ask where he heard such words.
"There used to be, but not now."
"Huh? What do you mean, is it a breakup? Tell me quickly. ”
Mao Changji's question immediately aroused the interest of all the monsters in this shed, and even the one-eyed monster sitting alone on the side also looked at Su Shang.
Youkai are just like humans.
Su Sheng reached out and rubbed his hair. (To be continued)
