Chapter Forty-Seven: Little Kitten Demon: Demon Slaying Sword
"Ah~~ I see, you mean. You accidentally drowned in the river before and were reborn? So I wanted to explore why I was resurrected, but I didn't expect that after I was resurrected, the monsters would want to eat you, right? Mu Qing said after sorting out her thoughts.
"Yes!" That's pretty much it, but the latter sentence is false. Already knowing why I was resurrected, I just want to rest now. If it weren't for this ghost system, I would have to do the task.
Although Mu Qing was a little surprised, she quickly accepted it. This kind of thing is not impossible, so it is understandable.
Since you can understand, it is naturally the best. I'll explain it to you again.
Then, Mu Qing directly hugged Lan Qi's arm. With a stupid smile on his face, he said, "Hehe! In this way, we should all belong to the yokai. Is it the same kind of thing? ”
Forehead...... No, I'm supposed to be a zombie.
But when you say it's a youkai, it seems to mean that.
However, youkai zombies can increase their strength over the years. I'm like a normal person, I need to learn on my own. Why?
Am I the creature caught between people and monsters and zombies? What a wish!
"Uh...... I guess so! Uhhh Lan Qi scratched his face and replied with some embarrassment.
Why was this Mu Qing surprised for a moment, and then became so excited? It doesn't feel right!
He looked at Mu Qing, who was holding his arm, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Why...... I feel like you're looking like and excited? ”
"Nope!" Even so, she didn't admit it.
Perhaps, she had no idea what the word meant.
Don't bother to explain to her, let's go out for a walk. It's boring to stay here, so it's better to go out and hang out.
Lan Qi pushed her away and said seriously: "Ahem! Let go, remember what I told you? ”
"Huh? What the? Mu Qing looked at him with a confused face and tried to remember, but he couldn't remember.
Seeing her like this, she probably forgot: "Out of the house!" You and I are equal to master and servant, and I am Lord. Understand? ”
"Oh!" When Lan Qi said this, she remembered. It seemed to be the case, so it immediately retracted. And put on a cute and upright look.
Then, the two went out. In the morning, of course, you have to eat first. Otherwise, I'll be hungry when I walk around, and I don't know if there are any snacks sold in this city.
At this time, the system spoke: [There are monsters in this city! 】
Youkai again? You can't want to eat me again, do you? However, I've already put on a gilly costume inside. The breath has been hidden, so it shouldn't be discovered.
[I just said that there were monsters, and I didn't say that they were coming at you. What are you excited about? 】
Forehead...... So? That's fine, let's go see what kind of monster it is. Just in case, if it's a harmful youkai, you have to deal with it immediately.
Then, led by the system. The two walked to a small alley, where a child was hiding in the shadows and shivering. There is still a piece of meat in his mouth, looking like this, it should be a beast demon.
"Mu Qing! Can you tell what kind of youkai he is? "Lan Qi naturally can't see it, so the investigation work is done systematically. I can only guess, and I can't be sure.
Before she could answer, the kid spotted the two of them. and bared his teeth and let out a roar at the two of them, as if they were very fierce.
Mu Qing directly blocked in front of Lan Qi and said slowly: "This is a cat demon!" And it's just turned into a human form, and there's no way to get rid of the habit of being a cat for a while. ”
It turned out to be a cat demon! No wonder its roar just now sounds familiar to me.
Then, she slowly approached the cat demon who had just transformed into a humanoid form. And stretched out his hand and said gently: "It's okay!" We won't hurt you, good! ”
Although it's not a powerful character, it's also a monster that has been cultivated for forty years and turned into a human form.
You should be able to speak, right?
"You...... You, are ...... Who? You... There is a demonic spirit! This little cat demon suddenly spoke. But it's very stammering, and it's really just formed, so it's not very skilled?
Mu Qing smiled, retracted her hand and said, "I'm a tree demon!" His name is Mu Qing, and he is also a monster. But it's a little weird. ”
Ah......h Say I'm a little weird? What's wrong with me?
Before the cat demon could answer, Mu Qing said again: "You are still in the adaptation period now, just if you are outside." It's easy to spot, come with us. I won't be hungry for you! ”
At this moment, a butcher walked behind Lan Qi. He was also holding a pig-killing knife in his hand, staring at the three of them fiercely. He said in a very impatient tone, "Are you the family of this little cub?" It just so happened that he had just stolen a piece of my meat. How to pay for this? ”
When the cat demon saw this butcher, his expression instantly became solemn. The teeth are bared, and the eyes are fierce. This startled Lan Qi after relieving himself.
He turned to look at him and asked, "How is this meat sold?" ”
"One pound and twenty wen! He stole that piece of meat just now, at least three catties. "The butcher looked at him dressed like a human being, how could the child be so virtuous?
Without saying a word, he took out a tael of silver and handed it to the butcher and said, "Is it enough?" ”
The butcher was also stunned, and after taking the silver, he hurriedly thanked: "Enough, enough!" Thank you for this, hehe! With that, he turned around and left.
Don't look at him as if he is very generous on the surface, but in fact, he feels a lot of pain in his heart: "My money~~!" A tael of silver is a hundred dollars, why do I have to pretend to beep? I gave an extra forty wen! ”
After the butcher left, the cat demon lowered his head and looked at the piece of meat in front of him a little confused.
"Mu Qing! Let's go, see it like this. I guess it won't go with us, just let it go. "Of course, Lan Qi wants you to come over, so that you can compensate me for the loss of a tael of silver.
Afterwards, Mu Qing and Lan Qi left the alley and started shopping.
The cat demon who stayed in the corner was stunned and just left? Don't keep it anymore? If I try it a little longer, I might just say yes. Feed!
After seeing them gone, the cat demon immediately stood up. He picked up the piece of meat and followed them all the way.
And Mu Qing also noticed it, so she whispered: "Lu Lan! It's keeping up! ”
"It's okay! Let it follow, leave it alone. "Isn't this plot very common? It seems to be called 'want to get away with it', right? This routine is tried and tested, and it works very well.
Besides, he's really sorry for the money I spent.
Along the way, there were quite a few things to buy. I just didn't see what I wanted, yes! Go to the blacksmith shop and see if you can make a better knife. By the way, I picked up the rusty sword and let them polish it, it felt quite useful.
After going around and around several times, I finally found the blacksmith shop. I didn't expect such a big city. It's just such a family, and it's especially open in the corner, so it's easy for me to find it.
This blacksmith shop looks in tatters. It must have been some years, and there was a boiler at the door. This boiler is used to make iron, but it looks like it hasn't been used for a long time.
In the room, an old man was sitting there in a daze with a cigarette stick.
Lan Qi then spoke: "Old man! I want to build a sword, but I don't know if I can? ”
The old man looked calm, looked indifferent, looked back at Lan Qi and said, "Huh? Forge a sword? I haven't done this in a long time, old man, you can find someone else. ”
This old man seems to have not practiced swords for a long time, and may be unfamiliar with his skills, but where else is there a store in this city? "Don't say that, old man, this huge city is now your shop. Who am I looking for? ”
"Don't forge a sword! You go, I don't have time to deal with you. "I didn't expect this old man to play cards according to the routine, at this time he shouldn't say anything about forging swords for free. Do you want to find the materials or something?
Then, he was controlled by the sword he refined or something.
You don't play according to the routine, it seems that you are an ordinary blacksmith!
"Uh...... Can that help me sharpen this sword? Lan Qi took out the rusty sword, held his hands flat in front of him, and asked.
When the old man saw this sword, his expression immediately changed. From the facial expression just now, to the excitement on his face now. He dropped the cigarette stick in his hand, and immediately ran over to look at the sword and asked Lan Qi, "Your sword...... Where did it come from? ”
"This is something I gave to someone else before, and they gave it to me. What's wrong? Lan Qi looked at the old man with a bewildered expression, just a sword. is so excited, could it be that he is starting the plot?
He held up the sword with trembling hands and said, "This sword...... It was cast by my master back then, and this is his favorite work. It is also a demon sword, sharpening iron like clay. ”
It's also like clay, and I don't think I can even cut tofu. If it weren't for the good feel, I wouldn't be too lazy to use it.
Then, he walked to the whetstone with his sword in his own words: "You wait a minute, I will polish it a little." Let it see the world again! ”
Then, the old man kept sharpening his sword.
But...... At this moment, the cigarette stick he had just thrown on the ground burned all around.
Seeing this, Lan Qi and Mu Qing immediately stepped forward to extinguish it.
The old man was now concentrating on sharpening his sword, not even knowing what had just happened.
This old man is too focused on doing things, right? Why don't you pay attention to your surroundings, if we weren't there. I guess you're going to have to die here!
After about an hour, the old man was finally polished.
The original rusty iron sword was polished and shiny at this time. If you look closely at the blade of this sword, there is also a dragon carved on it.
Did the ancients have any special fondness for dragons?
Why do you like dragons so much?
Then the old man took another scabbard and put it on.
