.........

Fenghua City, the depths of the city's Central Park.

A little mouse smaller than a hamster is struggling into the center of the park. Following its primal instincts, it easily found the beast paths in the damp, soft forest, and followed the direction of the client, and walked briskly towards its destination. Perhaps because of the rain that had just fallen the day before yesterday, the beast path was muddy and difficult to walk, and a thick layer of fallen leaves was rotten and blackened, mixed with countless tiny corpses under the silt, revealing a subtle smell.

It doesn't smell bad, but after being eaten by various fungi, there is only a little organic matter left. Maybe it's too close to the ground, and the smell is a little choking, which makes the little mouse who has just entered this primitive area a little unaccustomed.

After running more than a dozen kilometers through this difficult forest path, it stopped under a fallen tree to rest.

He wiped the dew on his face, shook his body, and shook off the leaves on his smooth and silky hair.

Silently calculating the next journey, the little mouse was indignant: "Damn, isn't there a way to go? Or do I have lived in the city for a long time and have not adapted to the natural environment?"

The city's Central Park covers an area of more than 1,000 acres, and Shiyu Park near the library is only a small part of this pristine area. With the deliberate interference of some people, the government has repeatedly put aside proposals to develop a central park. It can be said that the ecological environment in the depths of this park has always remained in a relatively pristine state. However, from the perspective of the vast scope of human existence, this is a relatively human living area, there are few natural beasts, and there are not many large animal roads in the forest.

Having lived in the city for a long time, it is used to the gentle streets, and it really does not like this kind of damp, dark and soft woodland.

The little white mouse flicked its tail and picked the mushroom that grew on the tree next to it, it looked fresh...... The little mouse wiped the dew from the mushroom and swallowed it in one gulp. Sticky and bitter in taste. Although this natural mushroom is not as delicious as some things in the city, it is relatively less harmful to living organisms, and there are many more substances called spiritual substances that are beneficial to youkai.

The little mouse rested here for a few minutes, and after nibbling on a large pile of mushrooms, it continued on its way.

The depths of Central Park are filled with tall trees, with huge empowerments that shade the sky and gray sunlight underneath, but are a great environment for fungi and ferns...... Mushrooms of all colors, mosses, these things can be seen everywhere, and from time to time small animals will jump through the forest.

On one of the trees, which was covered with green fruit, a pine tree jumped down from the tree, looked curiously at its strange visitor, bared its teeth at it, and threw a green fruit over it, hitting the mouse in the head...

"Oops...... Who?"

"Squeak!" it turned around, and a piercing, sharp sound wave emitted, leaving a strong mark in the air, and the moment it touched, stunned the dead squirrel.

"Hmph, you little thing like you who has not opened your mind still dare to bully me, I really have lived for nothing for more than 30 years!"

It smiled proudly, and the sense of superiority as a monster spontaneously emerged.

Throwing the squirrel behind a branch, it raised its head and walked towards a mountain spring not far away.

At the foot of a huge stone, a crack opened in the stone, and the spring water flowed out from the crack in the stone, forming a small rainbow in the dim sunlight. Within the range of one square meter, a small pool of water about half a meter deep is formed. The spring water tinkles, and the water waves in circles. In the surrounding area, which is invisible to the naked eye, a small stream of water submerges into the soil, maintaining the current height of the small pool.

At the edge of the small waterhole, there is a vermilion plant, not tall, only seven inches, with a single branch and seven leaves.

That's the goal!

Although life in the city is more comfortable than in the natural environment, the speed of cultivation here is undoubtedly much slower for the white mouse and black cat who are still small monsters...... For this reason, they have also expanded their own cultivation paths. In addition to cultivation, it has built an intelligence network with some weak monsters, and powerful monsters will sometimes publish some tasks on the intelligence network, the main categories are as follows:

One: Find the lost and found quest, find the lost item, or find the human dwelling. Most of these tasks are long-term tasks, and the things they are looking for are also strange, often hanging for years without anyone completing them, and the task rewards are the most abundant and attractive.

Second: to provide protection tasks for humans, the monsters that wander in the human city will inevitably make some friends, these friends sometimes encounter some small troubles, these troubles are really not a big deal in the eyes of powerful monsters, and they don't want to care about these small things, this service was born as a matter of course. Of course, the youkai who posted the quest will also provide specific information and will not let the little monster die during the quest. Haha, those people would never have thought that the kittens and puppies who like to stick to them are protecting them.

Third: buy and sell intelligence missions, provide intelligence information for new monsters entering Fenghua City, so that they can understand some taboos in this city, so that they will not be 'taught to be human' by that person in confusion.

Fourth: Collect plant quests, most of these quests are provided by a powerful flower demon, she seems to like to publish some incredible tasks in the eyes of the little monsters, the task content is simple, but the rewards are very rich.

......

The stupid cat was so lazy that he had to sleep until three o'clock every day before waking up. In contrast, the little mouse is at the opposite end of the spectrum, it is always idle, and when it is serious, it resembles some workaholics.

This morning, the little white mouse just sold a piece of information to the new monster and successfully obtained a spirit fruit.

Then, through its own way, it learned that the one in the wind three roads needed this plant, and ran to it alone.

Just as it was about to pluck the vermilion plant, a small red snake sprang out and opened its mouth to bite it. The little white mouse flicked its tail, threw the little red snake aside, and bared its teeth at it: "Hmph, now that this thing is mine, you can leave obediently." ”

It didn't care much about this little snake that was still far from opening its spiritual intelligence, so it sent it away in three or two clicks. It was the little red snake, even if it decided to leave, its eyes were still on the plant.

"Don't look at it, although this kind of thing is a bit aura, but if you want to use it to open up spiritual intelligence, you still have to work hard to cultivate. The white mouse waved his paw and said to it, "If you're lucky, you can survive until the next Emperor's Pulp Feast, when you have the best chance of becoming a demon." ”

This is true, if there is no special opportunity, it will be extremely difficult for these ordinary beasts to open their spiritual intelligence. Speaking of efficacy, this plant really has no special effect, it can purify the air and spring water, remove all foreign impurities, make the air angry and reassuring with a slightly sweet breath, and make the spring water never deteriorate, clear and sweet...... However, it is of no use to practice~

Looking at the little red snake that was reluctant to leave, the white mouse looked up at the sky with a sigh......

Thirty years ago, the Emperor's Pulp Banquet made both it and the stupid cat enlighten their minds and become monsters.

If they follow the original path, their chances of unlocking their wisdom are even slimmer than that of this little crimson snake...... At least, people already know how to work hard, and fight for the possibility of being small and becoming a monster!

At that time, they were ignorant and had no concept at all. Without the feast, they would have followed their wild instincts, foraging, fighting, multiplying, aging, and dying...... Just like those of the same kind around me a long time ago.

"I'm really lucky to think about it now~~"

After digging out the crimson plant, it plucked the seven leaves according to the content of the commission, inserted them by the edge of the pool, and sprinkled a little bit of turquoise light that was taken along with the commission, until the leaves took root, and then it nodded with satisfaction.

When all was done, the white rat staggered out of the forest, its destination was a flower shop on Fengsan Road, where the powerful and gentle flower monster would offer it a good reward.
