Chapter 363: The Masquerade
Guest room.
Chen Xue was in her room preparing to participate in the costume of the masquerade, Shen Mo had already put on a tuxedo and waited in the living room for a long time, don't ask Shen Mo why he was so fast.
Because compared with women, men are definitely better than women in terms of the speed of changing and undressing, and they are many times better.
Silently playing with the ghost mask in his hand that had returned to its normal size, he found that he had a lot to talk about with this youkai that had lived for more than a thousand years.
"You said you were a demon in the Heian period, then you must have seen Abe's eyes. What kind of person is he? Is it really as powerful as it is written? ”
The Ghost Mask snorted.
"You said that boy! When I became a demon, he wouldn't pee on his own! ”
Airplanes! The light is lit and eager to try.
"Speak human words!"
The ghost mask wants to cry without tears, and it is a monster that is forced to speak human words, hey! The world is hot and cold, and people's hearts are not ancient. I think that when a hundred ghosts walked at night, human beings had to call a god when they saw monsters, but now it's good, feng shui takes turns, and demons are not as cheap as people!
"Amper's eyes are indeed a very powerful onmyoji, he is one of the representatives of that era, driven by the great wave, many big demons are willing to become his gods... It's a pity that he is a human being after all, and if he is a human being, he will grow old and die. In addition, the demonic energy between heaven and earth is gradually exhausting, he is still dead, the day of his death, a hundred ghosts walk at night, and the monsters are in Qiyun, it is really not lively... It is no exaggeration to say that his death meant the end of an era. ”
Listening silently, he savored the key to it, according to the ghost mask, more than a thousand years ago, the island country was in the era of a relatively strong aura, but I don't know why, the aura gradually dried up, and the grand occasion of the nocturnal walk of the hundred ghosts ceased to exist.
The depletion of the aura thousands of years ago, and the revival of the aura now, are like a cycle of life and death that has been circling for thousands of years, which is embarrassing.
"However, the Ampere family has not been lonely because of this, and his bloodline has been passed down to this day."
Shen Mo raised his eyebrows, "How are you so sure?" ”
"Because I was caught and sealed by Amper's eyes back then, if it weren't for this demonic movement, I wouldn't have escaped from their temple, roar... When I escaped, I saw the descendants of the Ampere family, and the sour smell in their blood will not be forgotten even if I die. ”
Ampere's inheritance has been preserved to this day?!
This news is really a bit surprising to Shen Mo, but if you think about it carefully, you can understand that after all, it is a great onmyoji who was in full bloom, and the island country is small and sparse, and the cultural conflict it suffers from is weak, if you can't even keep such a thing, it's really better than waste.
"So what's the situation with the island nation now? Are there many youkai like you? How many big demons are there like Yaki Orochi? ”
Roar?!
Hearing Shen Mo call Yaqi Orochi's name, the ghost mask couldn't help but shudder.
"Don't, don't know, can't say. I can't say anything about that adult. ”
The corners of Shen Mo's mouth rose, "Come, the pen is for you, you will write." ”
"That's fine."
Roar! The ghost mask curled up the ballpoint pen with his hair again, and on a new piece of A4 paper, there was a flurry of writing, and after a while, the result was there.
Shen Mo picked up the paper, only to see that there was another picture on it, this time it was not a portrait of a monster, but a sketch of an island country.
The map of the island nation is divided into regions, each of which is marked with text as the area of influence of the Great Demon or Human.
Read it silently and carefully, and you will have a rough idea in your heart.
It turns out that the island nation is already in such a mess!
How messy is it!?
Shemales coexist, and evil is rampant.
These eight words perfectly interpret the current situation of the island country, all forces and monsters join forces, with the help of the power of monsters to act recklessly, without law, the whole human society is smoky, the people are miserable, miserable.
Shen Mo didn't feel it at first, but with the careful interpretation of the ghost mask, he felt more and more that the human beings born in the island country were really pitiful, either being played in this depressed and hopeless human society, or being played by demons in this monster society where the law of the jungle and fate was like a mustard, and there was no value experience of being born as a human being.
Ay! What a wretched nation, what a wretched nation!
You're going to say it's not the same as you imagined it to be an island nation?! That's because what you can see, is just what you can see.
The moon is relatively round abroad?! Hehe, when you are really abroad, you will find that the moon abroad is not only round, but you may even have the opportunity to see it, and you will be sent to the crematorium as fertilizer.
In the era of aura revival, the island country that is about to usher in the era of the night walk of the hundred ghosts, it is a really dark comparison!
Shen Mo was a little lucky, fortunately he was reborn in Huaxia, if he was born in an island country, he didn't stand up yet, so he lay down on the ground.
Shen Mo carried the ghost mask in his hand, realizing that the monster he had subdued was equivalent to the encyclopedia of the monster world of the island country, and it was indeed useful to keep it.
Creak!
At this moment, Chen Xue's door opened, and Shen Xue followed her gaze, only to see a woman like snow coming, her smile was like a flower, her beauty was incomprehensible, her waist was graceful, and her beauty was not ordinary.
was silent, but I didn't expect Chen Xue, who was dressed up, to be so good-looking.
Roar!? The ghost mask exclaimed, "Where did this beauty come from, she is even more beautiful than Princess Asaie." ”
Who is Asaie?! The third daughter of Oda Nobunaga's younger sister Oda City, she is the most beautiful princess I have ever seen.
Silent and surprised, Oda Nobunaga is a figure in the Warring States period, you are a monster in the Heian period, so calculated, you should be sealed, how can you see Asai Jiang.
"Don't hide it from uncle, Asai Jiang once went to the temple of the Anpei family to worship, and the villain was fortunate to see her."
I see!
Shen Mo figured it out, the woman he had seen after the kid was sealed could count on one hand, no wonder he praised Chen Xue.
Having seen the world like Shen Mo, there are many old drivers at home, such as ghosts, demons, and dolls, naturally I don't think Chen Xue is amazing, but he is much better than ordinary people.
"Silence, am I beautiful!"
Chen Xue danced the hem of her skirt, put on a drunken demeanor, and asked with hope.
"Beautiful! You're beautiful! ”
Chen Xue"??? ”
What did she just hear? She just heard the mask in Shen Mo's hand actually speak, and she was still there praising herself for being beautiful and beautiful, huh?! Youkai!
Chen Xue's face was shocked, "Silence, monster!" You've got a monster in your hand! ”
"I know, don't be afraid," Shen Mo picked up the ghost mask, "This is the one I just subdued, a youkai that has lived for more than a thousand years. ”
Chen Xue's mood gradually calmed down, but she still didn't dare to look directly at the terrifying ghost face of the ghost mask, "Could it be that this is your mask?!" ”
"Yes! That's it! A ghost mask with a thousand-year-old history. It's worth a lot more than your lace goose down mask. ”
Chen Xue "····"
The world of men is really difficult to understand. Especially a powerful man, his world makes Chen Xue want to get closer, but also full of fear, and the psychological impact of wanting to resist and welcome makes Chen Xue want to stop.
"Whatever you want! But you have to be careful, after all... It's a youkai. ”
"I will, are you ready? We can now go to the masquerade. ”
"Hmm!"
The masquerade comes from Halloween in the West, in Western countries, October 31 every year is called Halloween, which is the Halloween in China, this night is the most "haunted" night of the year, so people will wear a variety of ghost masks, dressed as ghosts, on the one hand, to worship the souls, on the other hand, to deter evil spirits.
The masquerade ball on the Caribbean is not a simple Western festival, but a masquerade ball mixed with a strong island culture, at which you can see island women dressed in kimonos everywhere, as well as various masks with island country characteristics, the island people will be the Western Halloween and the island country stage sacrifice culture ingeniously combined, forming a kind of West is not West, Island is not an alternative cultural expression.
Therefore, the ghost mask worn by Shen Mo does not look abrupt and unusual at this masquerade, and most people only think that Shen Mo is a mask that follows the cultural atmosphere of the organizer.
Chen Xue gently held the wrist of silence, the two walked together, and slowly walked into the ball hall with the flow of people, they came early, and the masquerade has not officially started, but the participants have already arrived eighty percent, as long as the time comes, it can start smoothly.
Shen Mo took a glass of champagne from a waiter's tray, took a sip, and then smiling, found a table for five people to sit down, and waited for the dance to begin.
Airplanes! The power of the mind and eye was activated, and the projection of the entire ball appeared in silent mind, and he began to carefully screen the identities and origins of the attendees, and gather information from their conversations.
"Have you heard? This year's jewellery auction will have a grand finale. ”
"What? I haven't heard of it, but you said that there is a treasure diamond again? ”
"What a diamond! This is much more valuable than a diamond. ”
"It's worth more than a diamond, what's that?"
"Zhu Yan Dan! One can make people not age for forty years. ”
"Huh? Are you kidding? How could there be such a thing in the world! ”
"Hey, hey! Believe it or not, the world is changing faster than your thoughts... I've told you the news, you don't have enough money left to bid for the auction, so don't blame me. ”
·····
"Mr. Benoy, your father-in-law just called and said you must help him this time, and he must fight that bastard in Congress to the end."
"Damn! My father-in-law really gives me a headache, can't he be his president properly? Gotta toss! Tell him that I'm short on money right now, let him go find someone else! ”
"But sir... Your father-in-law..."
"Get out! Don't you know that this auction will not only produce a peerless diamond, but also the news that there will be a rejuvenating pill that will not age for 40 years! If this news is true, I must have enough money to take it, it is worth more than a diamond. ”
····
"Dan, you really have no interest in Zhu Yan Dan?"
"Humph! Our family is in the diamond cutting business, so let's leave it to you to do this kind of thing! ”
"Hehe, don't regret it!"
····
"Mr. Schneider, the shareholders asked you to take a picture of the information about Zhu Yan Dan after confirming the true situation, but after my investigation, I found that many consortia have been eyeing it, and I am afraid that it will be difficult this time."
"No matter how big the difficulties are, we have to overcome them, we don't lack money, what we want is the trust of shareholders."
"Yes!"
·····
"My lord! These people are all concerned about the diamond and the Zhuyan Pill, and they don't even know that they are dying soon! Hee-hee! ”
"Stop! Someone is eavesdropping..."
It's him?! How could he wear a ghost mask, and even his breath became inhuman, a demon or a demon... Has his body been taken from him? Impossible, with his strength, the ghost can't do this... What's going on?!
Airplanes!
The power of the silent mind was instantly withdrawn, because he sensed the breath of the nine-tailed demon fox, and hid in the box on the far right of the ball, and he also heard the conversation between the nine-tailed demon fox and his men, and realized that he had been exposed.
It's just that with the hidden aura of the ghost mask, the two nine-tailed demon foxes were a little surprised and puzzled by the silent situation.
The silent gaze couldn't help but fall to the box in front of the nine-tailed demon fox Tamamo, but he saw that the tatami wooden door was pushed open, and Tamamo, who was wearing a fox mask and a kimono, walked straight towards him.
Hehe, it seems that Tamamo is trying to determine his true situation.
Ghost Mask, you have to pretend to look like me a little bit, don't let me see the clues.
"Little brother, are you playing hide and seek with your sister?" Tamamo stared playfully into her silent eyes, ignoring the presence of the ghost mask, trying to see the reality through the change in her eyes.
"Roar! In front of Tamamo, your little brother is dead, and this body of his belongs to me now! ”
"Hee-hee!" Tamamo hid his face and chuckled, "Ghost, it's up to you?!" Didn't you notice that he had true dragon blood in his body? With your strength, even ten, a hundred, don't even think about killing him. ”
Roar?! The ghost mask was stunned, and it immediately perceived the silent body, and the terrifying aura hidden under the human breath, which made the monsters tremble, gradually cleared the clouds and revealed it.
Roar! The dragon roared for nine days, and the tsunami shook it!
The Ghost Mask almost didn't die on the spot.
Dragon, is the head of the group of demons, in the island country's monster culture, is the great god who rules over all demons, like it, a small monster like it with foreign objects into a demon, in the bloodline compared to the real dragon 108,000 miles, than the fox demon in front of the Yuzao bloodline is still insufficient, naturally can not withstand the roar of the real dragon.
"Uncle! You still have the blood of the real dragon... Why don't you say it sooner! I almost scared the villain to death! ”
Silence "...
You didn't ask! Besides, I didn't know that the bloodline of the five-clawed golden dragon had such a great deterrent effect on the monsters of the island country!
"That's it! Little brother, don't pretend, pretend to be weak in front of your sister, it's not necessary! ”
All right! I'm not pretending, I'm having a showdown!
I already know your plan, but I will never let you succeed, because I am still counting on making a lot of money on these people, and then signing some stable customers to form a stable capital chain, how can you succeed, kill people and take corpses, and ruin the plan.
"Yo! My little brother and sister want to go together! So, do you want to join forces with your sister and let's work together! ”
Silence" ??? ”
What!? Working together? Aren't you one of the Great Snake of Yaki? How can Shen Mo work with you? The concept of the Yaki Orochi is a hundred ghosts walking at night, which is not at all in line with the concept of silence, and it is definitely not cooperative.
"Hehe," the nine-tailed demon fox Yuzao leaned closer to Shen Mo's ear and whispered, "Who told you that your sister is the adult's person, what my sister said is, are you willing to kill that adult with your sister." ”
Silence "...
Two-five?!
The ghost mask shuddered.
"Roar?! Tamamo front! You're actually backlashing again! You're the scum of the monster world! I like it, though! ”
