Chapter 19: Transporting Holy Relics—A Handbook of the Demon Realm's Code of Conduct
The green train was still creabling, Zhu Luan really couldn't find anything to do, so he had no choice, so he pulled out a book casually, sat on the seat and flipped through it.
In the afternoon, the sun was just right, and through the car window, people were lazy. Zhu Luan also became sleepy unconsciously, yawned, and the hand holding the book slipped lower and lower, and slipped lower and lower...... Until a soft cry dragged him back from his sleep.
"Yikes! The first edition of the Code of Conduct! ”
Zhu Luan turned his head in response, and saw a little girl with bangs and a big hat. The little girl looked eight or nine years old, and at this time, she was looked at by Zhu Luan, a little scared, and twisted the corner of her clothes and apologized in a whisper: "Brother, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to peek, or I just happened to accidentally see it." ”
As he spoke, he raised his little meat hand and pointed to the book in Zhu Luan's hand. Zhu Luan looked down at the cover, "Manual of the Code of Conduct for Demon Beasts to Enter the WTO".
What did Mu Lele say just now...... Oh, by the way, say don't take out this book in front of the monster again, be careful of being targeted. Zhu Luan slapped his head, just now he thought that the cars were all humans, and he really didn't take Mu Lele's advice to heart too much, so he accidentally took it out and looked at it.
However, in the eyes of mankind, this book is just a "Practical Guide to the College English Test Level 4". Those who can shout out the "code of conduct" will naturally not be ordinary human beings. The little girl is a little squirrel, because she is still underage, she can't fully transform, so she has to wear a big hat in order to cover the ears of the beast.
But isn't this just a manual, what's there to be surprised about? Curious, Zhu Luan casually flipped the book up, showed a smile at the little girl, and asked, "This book is very famous?" ”
Zhu Luan is good-looking and easy-going, the little girl saw that the "good-looking brother" smiled at herself, and she also showed a smile, and replied crisply: "Yes, this book is super famous!" I used to have a third edition at home, and it was stolen by the bad guys. My mom managed to grab another copy of the seventh edition last year. This is the first version of yours, I only saw it once when Pixiu's private museum was open to the public, and now I can't buy it with money! ”
"Wow, that's amazing?" Zhu Luan cooperated with a surprised expression. Half of his surprise was pretended to make the little girl happy, and half of it was indeed because he didn't expect it.
But it's no wonder that he doesn't know, because the value of this manual was all fried later.
As an ancient divine beast and the first chairman of the Demon Committee, Ying Long has many fans in the demon world. In the words of human buzzwords, it is the national idol level. Whenever there is a monster on the Internet that mentions Chairman Yinglong, you have to worship that kind of post later. However, after the abdication of the great god and his seclusion, there were basically no relevant movements reported. The only thing known to the public is the publication of the "Handbook of Conduct for Monster Beasts to Enter the WTO" written by him.
The first edition was limited to 1,000 copies, and it was snapped up by monsters as soon as it came out. However, the initial popularity of this booklet was only due to the pursuit of idols, which was essentially no different from the personal aspirations of star chasers to grab stars. It was only later that because of an incident, the manual was cast a layer of mystery.
At the beginning, there was a spirit who reached the age limit and had to go to the tribulation, but unfortunately he did not cultivate enough, and he felt that it was difficult to succeed. So he was ready to die, found a remote place, and let go and fought hard. However, he didn't expect that after nine deaths, he would succeed in the catastrophe. The spirit who succeeded in crossing the tribulation fell asleep for three days and three days, and when he woke up, he touched his pants and found that he was carrying a manual written by the god Ying Long when he crossed the tribulation.
The spirit was overjoyed, convinced that it was this manual that helped him succeed in the catastrophe, and after announcing the world, the manual became an instant hit and became a smash hit "transshipment holy relic".
Luck is a bit of a fictitious thing, but the effect is real. Coupled with the things written by Ying Long himself, it would have been more or less stained with the spiritual power of the ancient gods. After coming and going, after many spirits successively said that "the manual was successfully transferred", they confirmed the transfer theory.
As a result, the booklet was reprinted seven times after its first edition, each time in a limited edition of 10,000 copies, each time in an instant. In recent years, after no longer being reprinted for some reasons, it has become a treasure that is hard to find.
Don't look at her young age, the little girl has lived in the world with her mother for a long time, and she has seen a lot more than Zhu Luan, a "fledgling" dumpling. The little girl with a big ghost had already discovered that Zhu Luan was a "novice" at this time, and couldn't help but teach him proudly: "Listen to my mother, when you encounter a big event, bow to the manual, and the effect is much better than going to the temple to offer incense!" The paper and ink used in the first edition of the manual were all made by the god Ying Long himself, and his spiritual power was the strongest. ”
Just then, the door to the bathroom not far away opened. The little girl glanced sideways in the direction of the bathroom, and when she saw her mother open the door and come out, she stuck out her tongue at Zhu Luan and made a grimace and said, "Mom doesn't allow me to talk to strangers casually, and I should nag when I am caught." I'm leaving, brother bye~"
Watching the little girl jump and walk away, Zhu Luan held her chin and thought: ...... spiritual power is strong? Could it be that Uncle Ying Long gave himself this book not for reading, but for self-defense?
Thinking of this, Zhu Luan pressed his hand on the book and closed his eyes to feel the spiritual power fluctuations in the pages, but after a minute, he didn't notice anything abnormal.
What, it's really just a book, is there really anyone who will ask for blessing with a manual in the morning and evening? That's an exaggeration.
Zhu Luan secretly muttered in his heart, stuffed the manual back into his bag, and flipped out the "Precautions for Life in the Human World" that Dang Kang specially wrote to him. As soon as I saw the article "Ordinary humans don't know the existence of spirit monsters and monsters, they can't use spiritual power spells in front of them, so as not to expose their whereabouts", a girl's slightly panicked voice sounded: "What are you doing?" Then another ruffian voice said, "Oh, beauty, let's get to know me." ”
Zhu Luan looked up and saw a girl sitting on the seat diagonally opposite him, who was about to move out of her seat in order to avoid a man who kept getting close to him.
The man had to inch in, and the whole person was almost attached to the girl, and he wanted to grab the girl's hand: "Don't hide!" I don't have a thorn in my body, I don't believe you can touch it! ”
"You!" The girl hurriedly withdrew her hand, gave way out again, and warned in a low voice: "You sit down a little, and then squeeze over and I'll call the conductor!" ”
The lewd man didn't care, and said with a hippie smile: "Ouch, I'm still called the conductor, I'm so scared." Sister, tell me, what if the conductor comes, tell her that I squeezed you! If you squeeze into it, you can talk, and it's all up to you! As he spoke, he patted his thigh, and put his hand on the back of the seat on the girl's body: "Look, doesn't this give you all the place?" Very spacious. ”
"You go away!" The girl quickly got up from her seat. I was so angry that even my eyes were red.
She looked left and right, but saw that most of the passengers around her were busy with their own things, and she didn't know if she really didn't see it or deliberately, and no one paid attention to this side.
The girl stood alone in the aisle, confronting the lewd man for a while, grabbing her luggage and planning to change to another carriage. It's almost a day away, but it's better to stand all the way than to face a hooligan here.
She was just about to take a step when she felt someone tap her on the shoulder.
The girl hurriedly turned around, and saw a gentle smiling face, a young man with red hair. Then the young man smiled and said, "Let's change our seats!" ”
The girl was stunned for a long time, whispered thank you, and moved to Zhu Luan's seat with her bag. Zhu Luan sat down in the girl's original seat, lowered her head and continued to look at the precautions.
The lewd man who harassed the girl was blocked from doing a good thing, and he was originally angry and wanted to trouble Zhu Luan, but after turning his head and seeing his appearance, it instantly turned into a surprise: Wow, big beauty, this seat is so good!
In fact, to be serious, Zhu Luan doesn't look much like a girl. It's just that long red hair is easier to misunderstand, and coupled with a rare good looks, the lewd man preconceived that he was a girl.
So, not long after Zhu Luan sat down, the lewd man came up and salivated and said, "Beauty, did anyone say that you look like a star?" ”
Zhu Luan glanced at him sideways and didn't speak.
Seeing that he didn't agree, the lewd man became more bold, got a little closer, raised his hand and wanted to touch Zhu Luan, and said, "Don't ignore people!" How boring it is to sit dry, let's talk~"
