14. Nine Human-Faced Birds (13)
Just like raising rabbits and livestock, they like to raise a pair, so that they can reproduce and live endlessly.
The four of them, who happened to be two couples, became the target of the innkeeper's deception.
"Xianggong, is the innkeeper a human or a monster?"
"I guess he's human," he said. ”
"His family was victimized by youkai, and because they were weak and helpless, they didn't dare to make enemies with youkai. implicate innocent passers-by. ”
Inflicting the pain he has endured on others as well, as if he is more comfortable.
He Ruo saw that Nan Xun did not have any dagger on his waist, only a meteoric iron sword.
The Tempest just now, from beginning to end was just an illusion?
Thinking during the day and dreaming at night, according to common sense, the dream should be a combination of the fragments that you usually see.
He Ruo recalled when he had seen Mangosteen.
He looks extremely handsome, but he doesn't look like any movie star.
Bigmouth Mask? The cold light dagger? These He Ruo have never seen them.
He Ruo found that Nan Xun was wrapped in a handguard, "Xianggong, cliff, have you ever gone down?" ”
"Well, the nest of the nine human-faced birds is underneath, but it doesn't matter anymore."
"These nine human-faced birds were also kept in captivity by the monsters in the mountains, in order to help them divert their attention and hunt."
"Also, as a gimmick, to attract people who want to live forever."
The big hidden in the city, youkai are everywhere in the town, which is terrifying.
He Ruo said, "Xianggong, where are we going next?" Will Brother Xiaoyin and Sister Yunrou be in danger? ”
Nan Xun looked at the "diamond" in his hand.
"They don't eat adults, they just keep adults in captivity and eat children."
He Ruo said: "That's easy to do, if you don't give birth, it's over." ”
Nan Xun said: "I'm afraid I can't help them. ”
"As soon as it gets dark in Jiutou Town, all the shops will be closed, so why don't you have children."
"Youkai will keep some children to grow up and let them make the next generation, so most people still have a luck mentality."
"Nan Xun, you seem to know a lot about Jiutou Town."
Nan Xun and He Ruo were talking while collecting firewood, and now they had lit a bonfire.
He Ruo hugged his knees and put his feet close to the fire, which was much warmer.
Nan Xun sat down and took He Ruo into his arms with one arm.
"I've been sending people to search for nine human-faced birds for some time," he said. ”
Sure enough, He Ruo could vaguely guess that this was not a temporary idea.
That's why Brother Xiaoyin will comprehensively deny He Ruo's travel strategy.
Husbands and wives should give each other enough trust, so He Ruo does not doubt Nan Xun.
She was waiting for Nan Xun to take the initiative to tell her.
"The leopard is a monster, and the demon here will not do anything to him, and the demon may be planted with an illusion and paired with other humans to form a family."
"That's terrible, women are different from men, not everyone can do it, if Sister Yun Rou is sober one day, she will definitely hang herself on the southeast branch, or go to Qingchi, Xianggong, without further ado, let's go to Sister Yun Rou and save her."
"We can only wait now. ”
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait until dawn."
"Demons have the habit of demons, and they come out at night."
"When we go down the mountain now, it's tantamount to sending sheep into the tiger's mouth."
Nan Xun said so, and He Ruo naturally believed it.
Youkai are so varied that they can be anyone, and they can't be guarded against.
"Xianggong, if someone becomes me, can you recognize it?"
Nan Xun said, "I can." It is difficult to draw the skin of a tiger and draw the bones, and how can the person next to the pillow admit his mistake. ”
What Nan Xun said, He Ruo believed, unconditionally believed.
He Ruo lay on Nan Xun's lap, worried about Sister Yun Rou, and fell asleep again in a daze.
The little wife of the king of the mountains
