5. Monster Attack (Part I)
A breeze blew on the empty rooftop, and the sound of recess exercises came from the radio, which seemed a little distant.
Looking at Nangong Piao with a serious face in front of him, it was obvious that he was not joking, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but knot his brain.
What did he just say? "Mage"? What is that? Is it the one that specializes in demon slayers?
Seeing Zhang Longqian frowning slightly, thinking that she was worried about how she would be treated, Nangong Piao immediately said affirmatively: "Don't worry, we won't embarrass mortals, but I just hope you can cooperate with us in ......"
Hearing Nangong Piao say it to himself, without the slightest meaning of explaining, Zhang Longqian frowned and interrupted him: "Wait, you are mages?" ”
Hearing Zhang Longqian's surprised voice, Nangong Piao was stunned: "Huh? Yesterday, Yan he obviously saved you from the monster! Don't you know that we are 'mages'? ”
“…… I don't know. I know now, though. ”
Just think about it, when Zhang Longqian saw Cang Yan yesterday, he only saw his back, he didn't even show his face, and the soul suppression jade, which only reacted to "non-human", suddenly had a fever at that time, causing her to not even be sure if the other party was a human being, what a wild imagination this must be, she could think that the person who only showed his back and had a feeling similar to that of a monster would be a "mage"?
It is safe to say that if Nangong Piao and Cang Yan had not appeared today, Zhang Longqian would never have known their appearance and identity.
Therefore, Nangong Piao's current approach is simply asking for trouble.
It seemed that he had finally figured this out, and Nangong Piao couldn't help but be stunned.
Seeing Nangong Piao's somewhat overwhelmed expression, which was too far from his previous calm and wise image, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but think to himself, is he actually a fool?
Thinking about it, it was impossible for her to say this, seeing that Nangong Piao didn't seem to have come back to her senses, Cang Yan was indifferent and still ignored them at all, as if everything had nothing to do with him, Zhang Longqian could only speak: "Okay, anyway, now I do know that you are 'mages', so, what then?" What do you want to say? ”
Recalled by Zhang Longqian's voice, Nangong Piao sighed a little frustratedly, and then said in a low voice: "That's it...... Our identities can't be revealed, so I want to trouble you to forget what happened yesterday...... But now it seems that we have to add what we talked about today......"
Looking at Nangong's dejected appearance, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but come up with the words "asking for trouble" in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but just said casually: "Of course it would be good if you could forget it......"
Before she finished speaking, the gloom on Nangong Piao's face immediately disappeared, and he looked at her with an inspired look: "Really? ”
This sudden change in mood caught Zhang Long off guard, so that he didn't understand what the phrase "really" meant for a moment, but just nodded subconsciously. Seeing this, Nangong Piao immediately approached Zhang Longqian, his joy was overflowing, and before Zhang Longqian could react, he had already taken out a jade pendant with a diameter of about one inch and pasted it on Zhang Longqian's forehead, and whispered something he didn't understand.
Being a little confused by Nangong Piao's series of actions, Zhang Long sneaked for a while before he reacted, but he heard Nangong Piao say: "...... Sorry, please forget all this! ”
Looking at Nangong Piao's serious expression, Zhang Longqian was silent for a moment, and then couldn't help but sigh: "'Mage' or something, it's something that will bring ** annoyance when I hear it, I don't want to have anything to do with you." I really want to forget if I can, but it's not just memories, I want you two to disappear from my life completely...... But is it possible? Don't say such irresponsible things! ”
Hearing Zhang Longqian's words, Nangong was stunned for a moment, and then took off the jade pendant, he looked at the jade pendant in his hand with a crystal color, and then looked at Zhang Longqian, and a trace of panic appeared on his face.
"How...... How so? Why haven't you been erased? ”
Only then did he understand that Nangong Piao's sentence "I want to trouble you to forget yesterday's events" was the meaning of "erasing memory", Zhang Longqian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then looked at the jade pendant, and said with some surprise: "Huh? So that's something that erases memories? Touching her forehead, she added, "If you don't know, how can I know why?" Couldn't it be that thing malfunctioning? ”
Hearing this, Nangong Piao immediately shook his head and denied: "Impossible! This is when we came out to carry out the mission, the 'Dharma Temple' personally handed it to us, how could it be out of order? ”
Looking at Nangong Piao's appearance of trying to defend himself, as if he had been wronged, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but be speechless for a while, and then said: "What is the ...... 'Law Palace'?" ”
Only then did he realize that he had said something superfluous, Nangong Piao couldn't help but be startled, and then covered his mouth and shook his head again and again, but he didn't say a word again. But in a panic, he actually covered his mouth and nose, and he really covered it, not just for a show. But Nangong Piao only stared at Zhang Longqian nervously, as if he was afraid that she would ask something more and cause him to say the wrong thing, so he didn't notice this at all, so soon, a look of breathlessness appeared on his face, but he still stubbornly maintained that posture, his face slowly turned red, and looked straight at Zhang Longqian.
I didn't expect that someone would really stop herself from speaking in such a stupid way, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but shake her head in surprise, and only when she heard the sound of Nangong Piao's breathing vigorously did she come back to her senses, and saw that he was already completely breathless, but he still had no intention of taking his hand away, and seemed to really think that as long as he insisted like this, Zhang Longqian would not ask more, and he would not say more.
I really couldn't stand Nangong Piao's appearance, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but say, "That...... Okay, I won't ask any more questions, and I won't investigate what the 'Dharma Temple' is, so you might as well take your hands down......"
Hearing Zhang Longqian's words, Nangong Piao immediately removed his hand, acting without hesitation as if he hadn't thought that Zhang Longqian might be lying to him. Looking at Nangong Piao, who was gasping for breath, Zhang Long, who was still a little nervous because these two people were looking for her, couldn't help but doubt himself.
I would even think that this kind of guy is unfathomable, is it that my judgment has deteriorated recently?
Not perceiving the subtle change in Zhang Longqian's eyes at all, Nangong Piao gasped and said with a relieved look: "Great...... I'm afraid you'll ask again...... If I leak any more information, it's really bad......"
That completely relieved appearance didn't look like he was lying, it seemed that he really believed in other people's words, which made Zhang Longqian feel speechless and couldn't help blurting out: "I said Nangong, are you actually a stupid person?" ”
After speaking, Zhang Longqian immediately reacted, and at the same time secretly said that it was not good. In any case, it is always bad to say bad things about him in front of the other party, maybe it will make Nangong Piao angry and ashamed, but she doesn't even know how the "mage" will attack, how to deal with it then?
But unexpectedly, Nangong Piao just smiled gently, and replied simply: "Of course not!" ”
The smile that originally seemed gentle and steady, but at the moment it looked silly in Zhang Longqian's eyes, looking at Nangong Piao who answered seriously, she couldn't think of what expression to put on, but she couldn't help but sigh loudly in her heart.
Wow...... What a fool! This guy is absolutely stupid! What should I do, that smiling face is stupid and stupid, it looks so bad, can I hit him? Can I hit him?
Completely unaware that his image in Zhang Longqian's heart had plummeted, Nangong Piao finally took a breath and said seriously: "That...... Can I try to erase my memory again? ”
"Don't." Without thinking about it, Zhang Longqian simply blurted out.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Longqian, who had agreed just now, would refuse now, Nangong Piao couldn't help but be a little anxious: "Why?" Didn't you agree just now? Don't you really want to forget? ”
"No, I wish I could forget you and then disappear." Zhang Longqian replied immediately.
Since discovering that Cang Yan was the one who saved her from the monster yesterday, Zhang Longqian felt a little uneasy in her heart, the abnormal reaction of the soul suppression jade and the inexplicable anxiety in her chest made her dare not get too close to these two people, and somewhere in her heart seemed to have been telling her that once she got involved with these two people, then, the peaceful days she had always cherished and enjoyed would be gone forever, which was unbearable for her, after all, she would enter the Yulin Club as a "feather fox", in order to protect this peace from the other side, never thought of asking for trouble.
So she really wished she could forget about Nangong Piao and Cang Yan completely, and never have anything to do with them.
Hearing Zhang Longqian's categorical answer, Nangong Piao couldn't help but feel a little puzzled: "Since you wanted to forget, why did you refuse?" ”
Why? It's not because you're the one who wants to erase my memory.
Looking at Nangong Piao, who didn't know why, Zhang Long muttered to himself in his heart.
It's going to fail just now, it's just that this guy is too unreliable, right? Although I think it's better to forget about these "mages" or something, but if I let Nangong come, I would have had amnesia once before, and if he directly erased all my memories this time, wouldn't I be finished?
Thinking about her, she pointed to Cang Yan, who had been watching coldly, so quiet that he almost forgot his existence, and said resolutely: "Let that red hair come, and I will agree." ”
Seeing that Zhang Longqian was still willing, Nangong Piao was obviously relieved, he was about to say something to Cang Yan, but he suddenly looked up at Zhang Longqian, and said in surprise: "You can see that his hair is red?!" ”
