In the middle of the night, the desolate moonlight fell in front of the window.

The moonlight like silver gauze spread a layer in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and Su Yi half leaned on the low table.

She stretched out her feet and frolicked under the moon.

Looking at her interested eyes, she really looks like a naughty child.

Shun Niang tidied up the messy books around her, turned around, and watched her play.

"Aunt Xun, didn't they come today?"

Xun Niang asked with a little surprise, "Who?"

"Miss Ning, and Xiao Rin. Su Yi pouted: "Hasn't Aunt Xun seen them?"

"Xiao Rin, I know Xiao Ning, but who is Xiao Rin?"

"Xiao Rin is Luo Ya's junior sister. Hehe, speaking of which, this guy Loya is really stupid. Now if you compare it to cultivation, Luo Ya will definitely not be able to compare to this junior sister she taught. The next time she comes, I'm going to make sure to laugh at her. At the end, she laughed out loud.

"Miss, isn't it only Xiao Ning who came yesterday?"

"Huh?" Su Yi showed a headache expression.

"She came alone, with no one around. Do you miss Loya too much, misremember? ”

Su Yi frowned slightly and pondered for a while: "Maybe." ”

"Speaking of which, what kind of person is that Xiao Rin that the eldest lady is talking about. ”

"Rin?" Su Yi picked up a volume of notes in her hand, and flipped through it for a while:

"As Roya described, Rin is a very peculiar person. ”

She sat down at the table with one hand on her cheek. Her gaze was a little distracted, as if she remembered something.

After a long time, Su Yicai whispered: "She is even better than what Luo Ya said." ”

Xunniang hugged Su Yi and let her lie on her lap pillow, and laughed: "What the eldest lady said is so sure, it's like seeing her." What Xiaoya said may not be true, maybe it is all a lie to you. ”

"Maybe I've seen it. ”

Squinting in enjoyment, Su Yi didn't say much about it.

Forget it, forget it.

She changed the subject: "Aunt Xun, why didn't you say Xiaoya came to see me last time?"

"How so. Xun Niang gently hugged her head and let Su Yi lean against her arms.

She stretched out her hand and stroked Su Yiqi's long silky hair, with indescribable pity in her eyebrows: "Xiaoya and Xiaoye are your close friends, don't you know best whether they will be tired of you? ”

"You are not allowed to say such things in the future, and it will be sad to be heard by Xiaoya and Xiaoye. ”

"Hmm~~" Miss Su squinted like a cat, she closed her eyes tiredly, and lay down in Xunniang's arms to rest.

"By the way, Miss, what do you think of this girl, Xiao Ning?"

"Ling Ning?"

"Well, this girl is a little special. Xun Niang's tone was low, as if she was afraid of something. She pursed her lips unconsciously, and spit out a few tiny words from the gap between her mouth: "It, it may have noticed Xiao Ning!"

"It?"

In some words that have been circulated by the Su family since ancient times, although it is similar to her or his pronunciation, it is completely different.

Maybe outsiders can't hear the difference, but Su Yi knows it clearly.

Hearing this, she opened her eyes in surprise.

"Hmm. Nodding, Xun Niang said word by word: "Xiao Ning entered the floating corridor this morning. ”

"And then, how's it going?"

"Ghost, cry!?"

“...... I know. ”

Hearing the word [ghost], Su Yi was stunned for a moment and put down the scroll in his hand.

"Aunt Xun, I'm sure now. Sitting up from Xun Niang's arms, she picked up the scroll notes: "Later, you will go to the Rune Paper Pavilion and ask how many days there are before the rune paper can be made." ”

"I've been there in the morning, and it's going to take more than a week if I'm going all out. ”

"Can it be any faster?"

"Well, that's okay over there, but it's going to be harder. ”

"It's okay, Auntie can help me get two more volumes of notes, I'm going to finish reading it today." Su Yi shook her head slightly.

She is the head of the Su family's generation, and this is her job.

There will be one person in each generation of the Su family, and she is the core of this rune paper family.

Every demon slayer and demon slayer will be asked to leave a scroll of notes on demon slaying and demon slaying when they come to Su's house to ask for rune paper. By reading the notes of these demon slayers, the head of the Su family communicated with the hearts of the demon slayers at that time, and guided the power of demon slaying from the underworld. In order to make better use of this demon-subduing power from the heart of the demon exterminator, the Su family made it into rune paper.

It is also the Su family that added these notes with the power of demon subjugation to the rune paper pulp, and the rune paper produced will have such a powerful effect, so it will be favored by many demon slayers.

Su Yi handed the finished notes in her hand to Xun Niang.

There are a few big characters written on the notebook, and it is called: Li Yi Jiazi Chronicle.

"Miss, let's read one less volume today, and rest early. ”

Picking from the bookshelf behind her, Xun Niang handed her a notebook.

"It's okay, my aunt will accompany me, won't she?"

Su Yi took the note and read it carefully.

The more she concentrated, the more tired she looked.

"Yes, it would. ”

Xun Niang poured her full tea and accompanied her until late at night.

The head of the family has never been an honorable title in the Su family.

Although everyone in the Su family respected the head of the family, there was more of a lingering fear.

Every generation of family heads is a corpse that hides the shame of the Su family!

......

In the afternoon of the next day.

Ling Ning wandered in the garden for a long time, and came to the book pavilion by Dongyue Lake again.

As always, this is a room with a classical atmosphere.

Facing the door are two screens, one side on the left side is embroidered with green clouds and closed moon hidden fairy lake, and one side on the right side is bluestone flowing water reflecting Shu. Walking through the two screens, you enter a spacious room with soft straw mats on the floor.

On either side are two large wooden bookshelves, one full of books and the other full of scrolls.

In the center of the room is a low table, in addition to the cup of semi-cool tea on the table, there is also a beautiful woman in a long dress wearing a slightly ancient style sitting next to the low table. She has beautiful long hair and dignified cheeks. If you look closely, you can faintly see a small, very cute gluttonous mole at the corner of her mouth.

She just sat quietly, holding a book with her hands gently resting on her lap.

He sat very straight, his head hanging slightly

Maybe she was a little tired from reading, she put down the book in her hand, supported her chin with one hand, and looked at her. Realizing that she was a little rude like this, she smiled apologetically, turned around and whispered to the middle-aged woman behind her, "Auntie, go prepare some tea and snacks." ”

Time seems to stand still.

Stuck at this moment, the view in the room did not change at all.

Changing ...... Maybe it's just her.

"Miss Ning, sit down. Seeing someone come in, Su Yi stretched slightly and slowly put down the notes in his hand. She pointed to the location beside her, and then said to Xun Niang: "Aunt Xun, prepare one more, there are guests." ”

"Okay. Nodding, Xun Niang withdrew.

"Do you have any favorite books?"

"Well, but I'm reading comics, novels, and stuff like that, unlike you. Ling Ning sat down in front of Su Yi, and if you looked closely, you would find that her body was slightly restrained, and she would adjust her posture from time to time, trying to make herself look more ladylike.

"What does it matter, reading a book is a very personal thing, as long as you like it. Su Yi gently leaned on the table, supported her chin with one hand, and then tapped the notes she had just put down with her white and delicate fingers, and whispered: "Actually, I envy you, it's a wonderful thing to be able to read your favorite books." ”

“...... Well, I think that's pretty good, too. But in the eyes of outsiders, reading those idle books is a non-professional thing. Trying to be straight, Ling Ning put his hand on his lap.

I don't know why, I always feel very unwilling to show rudeness in front of this person!

Unwilling to ...... Yes, just unwillingly!

But...... Why

Why is there such an emotion that seems inexplicable to her?

Indissoluble.

“...... Do you care what other people think? Do you care what others think of you? You think you're an outsider, what do they think of you, do you care?"

The clouds are rolling around, I don't know when, it's almost dusk.

"Yes, maybe I never cared about it. After a pause, Mr. Ning felt that the topic was getting farther and farther away from what she wanted to inquire, she adjusted her tone and pretended to be casual and asked, "I've been shopping here a lot in the past two days, why haven't I seen anyone?"

"Children don't count, adults. Xiao You said, adults must leave this garden, why?"

"Actually, it's not unusual, but it always takes a lot of money to keep a big place running. Do you know, our Su family has been engaged in the business of making rune paper for a long time. ”

"Of course I do. ”

Then you should know that this business does not generate any profits. The Su family made rune paper, but the place where those rune papers went was never sold at a price. Saying this, Su Yi pushed the note in his hand in front of Ning and said, "You can take a look at the blood flowing in this notebook first." ”

"April 3rd, Qinghe Old Temple. The hundred-year-old locust tree is bred into a demon. When I saw it, I cut it. ”

"On April 19, I was on the shore of West Lake. When I met an old man on the road, I saw that his face was dark, and the three lights on the top were dim, and he met a ghost. Encounter is fate, I give it rune paper, can destroy ghosts. ”

"May 5th, Tailin Town. I have heard of a family in this town who often has nightmares, and every day they wake up with their eyes turning red and blue. I went to the address, and saw that his face was blue and red, and there was a light demonic aura on the top of his head. That night, I set up a formation to hunt them, just small monsters, and kill them immediately. ”

......

"Kill all the monsters you encountered?"

Seeing that there were dozens of records on this notebook, Ning was a little sluggish. Speaking of which, she's also encountered a lot of monsters in the time she's been with Rin, but these guys don't seem anything special to her.

There are weak, there are strong, and there are bohemian.

Of course, there are annoying types.

But in this notebook, it doesn't make sense to get into all of these types or anything.

Inhuman, that is, dead.

It's so simple, leave a few hundred words, and die.

"The person who left this notebook is also dead, dead in front of a real demon. Still looking spiritless, Su Yi continued: "I told him before that according to his killing, he will die sooner or later." Every demon slayer who wants to take away the rune paper in the Su family must leave their own notes. ”

She summed up as a matter of course: "Without income, of course someone in the clan has to go out to make money." ”

"That's a reluctant explanation. ”

Of course, for Ling Ning at this time, these things were no longer important.

The important thing is the person in front of her, is her preference to read this kind of notebook with countless blood?

Monsters, humans, ghosts, there is no difference in her opinion.

But in this notebook, their lives are long gone.

Every guy who died, in this notebook, left only a few crosses stained with blood.

"Miss Su, do you really like these things?"

Just like she likes to play games and read novels, will this blood-stained text bring her joy?

She thought of the kitten, of the unlucky youkai.

Could it be that in the eyes of those people, these are all objects that should be dead?

Ling Ning gritted her teeth unconsciously, she lowered her voice, trying not to make herself look abnormal: "In your eyes, except for humans, are the rest of the lives alien that should be killed?"

Su Yi moved his gaze to her, stared at her, and said solemnly: "In the eyes of demon slayers, at least in the eyes of some demon slayers, yes. In their opinion, all aliens except humans are demons that should die. ”

"So, what about you?"

"Me?" Su Yi was stunned for a moment, and then knocked on the table boringly: "Bored." ”

"Whatever it is. Whether it's a blood-stained story or a heartfelt story, if you watch it too much, you will look down on it. I don't have any particular opinion on that. She stood up and took a thin manuscript from the shelf.

"No matter what my attitude towards youkai is, from a human point of view, these notions of demon slayer are actually not wrong. It's just that some people's methods are too simple, and they can't think of a better solution other than killing, while some people come up with it and get along with those people and things. But these people are all dead after all......"

"The owner of this volume of notes is an interesting fellow. He continued, "She is a very respected demon slayer. She never killed the youkai, and the unjust spirits talked to her, and the youkai became her friend. But ah...... It was such a person who, after leaving this last volume of notes, never appeared again. ”

"How is she?"

The pale gray paper, in addition to the "Qingcaotang Notes", there is still a line of small print on it.

Yu recorded a book of life notes in the Year of the Millennium Dragon and gave it to friends.

"Maybe dead. ”

Touching the cover with the name of Xiuqi, Su Yi was slightly sad: "She hasn't come to see me for a long time." ”
