Chapter 126: The Life of a Monster
In modern society, one thing is done by handsome guys and beautiful women, there will be a group of people waving banknotes and yelling and cheering, but the same thing is done by ugly men and ugly women, it will be a group of people who take pictures with their mobile phones and post them on the Internet and then make fun of them unscrupulously - [That's a world of faces. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.infoγ
Although the world of Xianxia where Nightshade was born is far away from the world referred to by the words "modern society", it seems that 'looking at the face' has not changed much...... At least for the princess of Jiang Kingdom.
Yes, Nightshade finally decided to stay overnight in this valley, which is tentatively called "Butterfly Valley". Although she explained the reason to Liz, Liz said that it was all nonsense, purely because she thought that the butterfly spirits in the valley were pure and beautiful, not like bad people, so she let down her guard and listened to her curiosity to make a decision, right? What a sinister little girl who doesn't know the time......
Fortunately, this time Nightshade's decision did not cause trouble for himself, the little butterflies in this valley are genuinely silly and sweet, and even the elders who have been practicing in the valley for a relatively long time are not much better, after all, they have been staying in the valley to eat and drink, and they lack the material basis for intrigue. Nightshade even hastily visited a valley in the company of young butterflies before the sun went down...... Of course, Dog* followed her every day as a bodyguard.
After that, Nightshade is invited to dinner by her new youkai friends in a treehouse full of flowers-
"This is what you eat every day?" Nightshade said suspiciously to a bowl of clear liquid with a sweet fragrance and a plate of flower petals in front of him.
"Yes, Sister Aoi...... We sent someone to ask Daoist Liz, and he said that this is fine, "Considering the time of cultivation to transform into a human form, these so-called 'young butterfly spirits' will not be younger than nightshade, all of them are 'sisters'," I thought it was strange when I heard it, didn't it say that humans can eat meat? β
"It's meat-eating, isn't it?" The other butterfly spirits were very curious, but there was a faint disgust on their faces.
"Ah...... Well...... Brother Leeds has food on him," Nightshade, who gave a quick answer, hurriedly picked up the bowl and drank it, for some reason, she felt a little guilty in front of a group of vegetarians, because of those big sparkling eyes, "Huh! β
"How~?"
"It's so sweet~" Nightshade smiled, "These are nectar?" β
"Well, this is the food we mix with the nectar extracted from the flowers by the secret method~" They didn't seem to change their tastes with the cultivation of refinement, they still used nectar as their staple food, "Sister Xiaokui, what do you think of the food in the human world?" β
"Hmm...... It's hard for me to comment on this, after all, you have to eat what you eat, and they have their own deliciousness," said Nightshade thoughtfully, "but when it comes to drinks, I don't think there's anything like this!" β
"That's it~~" I don't know if I think I've won, or if I recognize my food for my new friends, the little butterfly spirits seem very happy.
"By the way, Sister Aoi, why are the sleeves of your clothes so big? Don't you find it troublesome to dress? β
"This is called "Wide-sleeved Flowing Fairy Skirt"...... My favorite style of clothes. β
"It's really beautiful......"
"I have two more in my baggage...... If you don't mind if I wear it......"
"Don't mind, don't mind~~"
As soon as one topic ended, the next topic was immediately initiated, and it was lively, even if it was a butterfly spirit, the girls didn't seem to be any different.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"Please, you're really going to pick someone to ask for information about the human world...... A person from another world who has only been in this world for less than ten days, a princess who has not been out of the palace a few times, there is not much we can tell you. Liz, who drank the same sugar water as the nightshade, replied to the beauties' questions with a speechless expression in a treehouse about the largest in the valley.
He thought that this group of butterflies wanted to ask about the [Fire Pattern Jade], but he didn't expect that what he inquired about was the folk information from the outside world, and it was really a group of stupid white sweet girls.
"People from another world...... The elders sitting on the throne and the other elders present did not seem to trust much.
Incidentally, the butterfly wings disappear when they land, and they do not hinder their actions in human form, which is also the result of "transfiguration".
"It seems hard to prove to you, but...... Whatever you want, believe it or not. "It would be much more convenient if Sakiya was around, and if a "Pip-Boy" was taken out, Liz didn't believe that the monsters on the other side would think it was a magic weapon...... is different from the "Bagua Mirror" on his body, which is a magic weapon no matter how you look at it.
"Hmm......" The elder decided to skip this point, for them, it didn't matter at all whether Liz was an 'immortal cultivator' or a 'person from another world', "Your Excellency Liz, we still want to know the situation outside, even if it's just some, please don't hesitate to give us." β
"Before I answer, there's a question, why don't you go out and see the world by yourself?" Liz thinks that with their strength, they are very stable, of course, this 'very stable' is only for ordinary people, if they fight other monsters or powerful beings he has never seen, then there is probably not much chance of winning...... However, if you know the principle of 'keeping a low profile', you will probably not easily provoke other existences.
"This ...... We've learned enough bloody lessons. The elder sighed, and now she was asking for this kind of information from the rare guests in the valley, precisely to prevent more young butterfly spirits from leaving the valley without permission, and to take a step back, to give them a little more chance of surviving after leaving the valley.
Liz, who had no way of knowing how many tragedies were born behind this sentence, thought about it, and did not comfort him as perfunctory: "Even so, there is nothing wrong with going out of the valley, and if you don't want to make progress and stay here forever, sooner or later you will be left in a nest, and who knows whether it will be death or enslavement." β
Even if the cultivation of the butterfly essence in the valley becomes more and more advanced, it will not change the result, how the rabbits kept in cages beat the wild wolves that grow up in nature.
ββ¦β¦ Is it so difficult for us to just want to live with the world? The elder sighed again, and from the fact that she did not refute the point of 'alarmism', it may have already implied that the butterfly spirits of this valley are not without foreign enemies.
"Dying at the hands of the strong with the hope of peace will always be characteristic of the weak." Liz laughed.
βοΌβ Quite harsh words.
"Forget it, let's take it as a thank you for the sugar water you gave me," Ignoring the drastic changes in the faces of everyone present, Leeds put down his glass, "Please let me start with 'The Palace'β"
Although the atmosphere is far from the nightshade, Leeds has no ill will towards this group of butterfly monsters~ (To be continued.) )
