Chapter 27: Humans and Demons
Empty plates, only a pile of bones left on the table.
"Ding, Three-Tailed Fox gain +100...... XP"
There are still five hundred experience points left before the three-tailed fox is promoted to the second level, and if you eat one chicken a day, five days is enough.
Chen Beibei didn't plan to let the three-tailed fox eat so much at once, after all, in that case, he might be able to hold out.
Five days passed quickly. During this period, the girl in the peach forest began to become the talk of the residents of Qinghe Town after dinner.
More than one person had seen the girl before, and some people even went there to wait.
"Three-tailed fox, do you know that there is often a girl in the peach forest recently?"
Chen Beibei finished the last chicken and asked the three-tailed fox.
"I've heard people say that some people say that she is a ghost in the peach forest, and some people say that she is just a girl from Luoying City, who came to play."
The three-tailed fox said as he ate, his voice a little indistinct.
"What do you think?"
"I don't know, it's just a girl, there's no need to pay attention to her."
Three-Tailed Fox didn't want people to talk about the girl, because Three-Tailed Fox knew that she was just a monster like himself, and Three-Tailed Fox didn't want anything to happen to her.
"Ding, Three-Tailed Fox gain +100...... XP"
"Dear Onmyoji, your Shikijin Three-Tailed Fox has successfully reached the second level.
Do you know?
Youkai are divided into good and evil, and every onmyoji has the responsibility to protect the good ones.
Clue: The three-tailed fox is an infatuated youkai. ”
Just like when Kappa was promoted to the second level, the system gave a small hint about Onmyoji. It also gave a clue to a youkai who had been upgraded to two levels.
Spoony?
Infatuated people, abandoned......
Is this why the three-tailed fox goes out every night to find those lonely men?
This...... Isn't it a flower heart?
Chen Beibei couldn't understand this kind of feeling and this kind of behavior.
"Master, what are you thinking?"
The three-tailed fox couldn't hear the system prompt sound in Chen Beibei's mind.
So she thought that Chen Beibei was in a daze.
"It's nothing, sister, can't you let go of that relationship?" Chen Beibei asked suddenly.
The three-tailed fox knew that what Chen Beibei was asking about was his relationship with Wen Liu.
"He's an old man, I don't care anymore."
Not care?
Then why did you go to Wen Liu's house, see him sleeping alone, and cover him with a quilt?
Also, when he saw that Grandpa Wenliu had a wife, why was he angry and hateful?
"Since we don't care anymore, let's go visit him at his house together."
Chen Beibei looked at the three-tailed fox and said lightly.
The three-tailed fox reached into his sleeve and touched the notebook.
There are already 10,000 names in it.
It's time for the matter to come to an end, and it's time to pay back the pain he gave himself......
"Hmm."
The three-tailed fox had a shallow smile on his face, but his eyes were a little gloomy.
She didn't know if she was doing it right......
……
The people on the road were still talking about the girl in the peach forest.
"My grandson, sick ......"
"When?"
"I started crying last night, and I have a fever when I wake up in the morning."
"Sister Wang, I heard...... Last night...... The girl in the peach grove reappeared......"
The two looked like they were talking in a low voice, but the sound was audible to everyone who passed by.
Chen Beibei and the three-tailed fox happened to pass by......
It's just a girl, and it's so beautiful, why should a child be associated with her head when he's sick? (Peach Blossom Demon: Wronged Baba~)
At this time, Chen Beibei still thought that it was just an ordinary girl.
After all, he had seen it with his own eyes, a very ordinary girl.
Although he is not from Qinghe Town, the peach forest is not closed and planted, and anyone can enter it.
……
Wen Liu's home has finally arrived.
mud bricks, green tiles, small vegetable gardens...... and two old men.
"Chen Beibei, fast forward ......"
Grandpa Wenliu wanted to say, "Come in." ”
But before the last two words were finished, I saw the three-tailed fox.
"Feminine...... Also...... Ah, come in. ”
Chen Beibei and the three-tailed fox went in together, and the three-tailed fox walked very slowly.
Because she has things on her mind.
The book has been brought.,Do you really want to tell Wen Liu?
"Chen Beibei is here again."
An old woman said with a smile that they were still very welcome to Chen Beibei's arrival.
Because Chen Beibei is at this age, he is about the same age as their grandson who works outside.
The grandson comes home once a year, and the old man lives in the desert. Chen Beibei is here, and he can still have a lively ......
Chen Beibei and they came over after lunch, and Wen Liu and his wife had just finished eating.
So this time there is no need to eat.
All three of them sat in the courtyard with a glass of boiling water, and the sky was slowly drifting clouds.
The boiling water is steaming, and the midday sun is exceptionally warm in winter.
"Sister Girl, what do you have to say to Grandpa Wenliu, say it now."
Chen Beibei looked at the three-tailed fox and said lightly.
The purpose of bringing the three-tailed fox here this time is to let the three-tailed fox and Grandpa Wenliu explain the previous things and make a conclusion.
Although in Grandpa Wenliu's heart, the past has been relieved.
But the three-tailed fox is different, she is a monster, and what awaits her is a long and endless time.
She should find something she enjoys and not get stuck in the past.
The three-tailed fox placed the cup on the ground and reached into the sleeve of the other.
She reached for the notebook, which had the names of the men on it.
It's like knowing that there is another woman in Wen Liu's bed.
He's going to be sad too, right?
What I want is for him to be sad, after all, it is him, who loves himself and abandons himself.
And it's with other women.
"Wen Liu, why did you leave me in the first place?"
The three-tailed fox decided to give him a chance to explain, and also to give himself a chance.
"We're different, all you want is to be together all the time. But I'm a man, I'm not a doll, I have my own life and my own pursuits......"
"Is what you're looking for to be with other women?"
The three-tailed fox had some mood fluctuations, because in her heart, as long as she was with him, it was enough.
And he, on the other hand, wants to pursue other things, leaving himself with other women.
Shouldn't two people who love each other be together?
Yes, Wen Liu has said more than once before that he loves her.
"Why, you're wrong. All I wanted was freedom as a human being, and what I wanted to achieve. Human life is not only about love, but also about many, many other things. Maybe you didn't understand it at the time, but after all these years, you still don't understand?"
Wen Liu's words, Chen Beibei understands.
After all, this is easy to understand for humans.
But the three-tailed fox didn't understand, because after Wenliu left her, she turned back into a fox and returned to the forest.
Since then, she has never been in contact with humans, nor has she been exposed to love. until he received Chen Beibei's summons......
