Chapter 203: Monsters in the Trees
said it was a date, in fact, Qiao Xi and Buyue were people who didn't like to be lively, and the two of them walked around the street, not only did they not encounter anything interesting, but they were watched by a group of humans because of their appearance.
Seeing that the aura emanating from Buyue's body was getting worse and worse, Qiao Xi was amused at the same time, and turned from being kind to the suburbs.
There are indeed a lot fewer people here than in the center of the city, and even the atmosphere in the air has an inexplicable leisure.
Qiao Xi smiled and walked around, while enjoying the surrounding scenery, Buyue only walked beside him with his head bored, and the quiet around was only the sound of unknown small animals and the sound of insects and wind mixed together.
After a long time, Buyue's eyes swept Qiao Xi and said, "Why don't you speak?" ”
Qiao Xi sighed, raised his eyebrows and replied, "Because the atmosphere is very good." ”
I don't know why: "What atmosphere?" ”
"It's been a long time since I've walked with Notsuki - such a nostalgic atmosphere."
Qiao Xi's voice was extremely soft, but Buyue didn't miss it.
He was slightly stunned, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up quietly.
- He remembered that a long time ago, when they were in the shrine, they would occasionally walk on the road like this.
Occasionally, you will meet some human beings, some of whom can see them, and some of them cannot.
What can be seen may only pass by, but it cannot be seen, and they will stop and listen with interest to the human conversation.
Because the mountain is a shrine, there are also humans who mention the gods enshrined on the mountain.
Not the god of the moon and the god of the abundant moon.
- When it comes up, they're always together.
Buyue turned his head sideways and looked at Qiao Xi.
His own appearance is fixed on the appearance of a human youth, and his height is much higher than the average height of ordinary humans in this country.
And Qiao Xi, who was born at about the same time as him, doesn't know why, he looks like he is in his early sixties, and he is simply a human teenager.
In particular, he is in charge of the plant harvest, so that his breath is even more mild and full of harmlessness, and visually it can be smaller.
Buyue looked at it and became happy.
He only felt that it would be good if Fengyue could always look like such a small one, so that he could protect him all the time.
- What's more, in the human world, he can openly ask Toyotsuki to call him brother.
Hey~
Qiao Xi helplessly supported his forehead, and turned his head to look at Buyue: "So, what kind of operation is it to look at me for a while, and then giggle to yourself?" ”
Buyue blinked, and her tone was quite rippling: "This is a secret~"
Qiao Xi: "......"
- Okay, if you're happy.
He was about to say anything more when he saw a monster suddenly hanging upside down from a branch in front of him, his long hair brushing the face of one of the silver-haired children who was passing by in the wind.
Qiao Xiden was amused by this monster and wanted to laugh, but before he could laugh, the child with his hair on his face screamed in horror and threw his schoolbag at the monster indiscriminately.
He could see the monster, so he knew that the child was resisting the monster, but the children who were traveling with him were not aware of the monster's existence, and could only see the silver-haired child throwing his schoolbag into the air.
The children immediately began to laugh, and by the way, there was a wave of ridicule: "Hahahahahaha ”
"What, have you come up with a new trick to attract attention?"
"Liar!"
"Liar!"
Children are innocent and cruel. Qiao Xi could clearly see the stiffness and sadness of the silver-haired children because of the ridicule of their peers, but the children couldn't imagine whether their casual words would cause any harm to others.
Qiao Xi couldn't help but wanted to go up and stop it, but he hadn't moved yet, the frightened monster seemed to be angry, she controlled the leaves on the tree to hula and paste a few children, tripping them up, and even with the yin air flowing through, those children immediately hit a spirit, looked at each other for a while, then stood up and ran screaming.
Only the silver-haired child was not pushed, but the aura on his body was even more lost.
The monster was a little proud to ask the child for credit, but was pushed away by the child: "Who wants you to be nosy!" ”
He shouted like this, and ran wildly along the road, which happened to be the right direction.
Qiao Xi raised his eyebrows in surprise, and while he was thinking, the child who was running with his head down and ran wildly bumped into his arms.
The child looked up at Qiao Xi and was stunned for a moment, and at the same time, the deliberately arrogant and disgusted laughter of the monster on the tree not far away suddenly stopped abruptly.
Qiao Xi straightened the child, smiled and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
The child suddenly came back to his senses, blushing and bowing deeply: "I'm sorry! Then he ran away.
Qiao Xi subconsciously pinched her little finger, and was a little distracted for a while, and her eyes narrowed when she saw this: "What's wrong?" ”
"Hmm...... I met a human ...... I knew."
He was wondering if he should catch up.
- After all, the last time he parted, he seemed to promise that the kid would recognize him when he said goodbye.
Buyue immediately laughed and thundered: "...... Is that the kid just now? ”
Qiao Xi nodded: "Hmm." I promised that the boy would recognize him when he said goodbye. ”
"That's ......"
Buyue replied, and then moved his gaze slightly, and was decisively angry at the monster who was about to run on the tree not far away.
- If it weren't for the fact that this monster was scaring the group of children and making the silver-haired child run around and hit Qiao Xi, Qiao Xi must not have noticed an ordinary human child walking on the road.
"Looks like that youkai over there often scares that kid."
Qiao Xi frowned.
- That is true.
He lifted his eyes and looked over there.
The monster locked by the eyes of the two big monsters: "......"
- Why can't she think of scaring that human child in front of the two big monsters today?
Hearing the unconcealed conversation between the two adults, she just wanted to jump forward in time, she was bored to death and wouldn't provoke that child!
Qiao Xi walked towards the monster, and the monster floated down from the tree and sat under the soil: "I'm sorry, my lord, I was wrong!" I'm not going to scare that kid anymore! ”
Qiao Xi: "......"
In fact, after getting closer, Qiao Xi also understood that this monster actually didn't have any bad intentions.
- It's just too lonely, and it just so happens that it's rare to meet an existence that can see monsters.
The ones that did the rest probably couldn't see those children laughing at the silver-haired child so unscrupulously.
