Chapter 33 of Book 3

He Yu carried the golden Xuanlun to the sky, and saw from a distance that the fire was shining in front of the door of the back mountain prison, and Qi Shu was fighting with a long sword in the same door, and vaguely, it was the lean man who took the lead - he has always respected and rewarded and punished the most popular master Wenquan in the door. Sure enough, it was the master who came to ask him for the blame. It seems that I have to follow Uncle Shi's method, avoid it first, and then talk about it. He smiled wryly and turned back, pointing away.

Worried that this red-haired and bloody eyes would cause people to be afraid of chaos, He Yu had to find some dense forests and suburbs to rest and recuperate. He also wanted to go to Shuying and ask if he knew anything about her sudden departure. But after thinking about it, no, this is the head, if the master comes to find it, he will think that they are colluding with monsters, and he will not let go of Shuying... He couldn't let Shuying suffer her sister's path again.

On this day, the sun was setting, and He Yu flew in the southeast direction, seeing the pastoral mountains below, green and continuous, lush forests, trickling streams, and the smoke of cooking next to the farmers, filled with the fragrance of rice. Hearing this, he stroked his stomach, and he was really a little hungry. And when he came into the woods, he struck a hare, washed it by the brook, and set up a fire and roasted it. With the roasting of the flame, the rabbit meat gradually becomes golden, and the grease drips down, which really makes the mouth relish, and the fragrance is overflowing.

At this end, he was eating vigorously, when he suddenly heard a commotion approaching behind him. He immediately extinguished the fire and hid guardedly next to the tree in front of him.

When I turned my head, I saw no less than ten people chasing a man dressed in a long gray cloth. The man tripped over a stone and fell. He didn't resist, just curled up, and let the dozen or so strong people cover their heads and beat him with sticks. It's as if you're trying to protect something in your arms.

He Yu wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but when he thought of this red-haired and bloody eye, he immediately hesitated again. Fortunately, at this moment, after beating and scolding angrily, they also dispersed one after another, and they didn't embarrass that person anymore. Seeing that the man was still prostrate in a ball, he didn't look like he had gotten up, wrapped his hair in a cloth, and couldn't help but step forward and care: "Are you okay? When he got closer, he was stunned, and a faint smell hit the tip of his nose. His heart was like a thousand waves surging. It's just that this taste, which originally made him extremely disgusting, suddenly rose to the familiarity of the same kind of stocks...

The man's trembling body then stopped, hugged the thing in his hand, hurriedly got up, ignored He Yu, lowered his head, and ran briskly to the side, no, it was more like an escape. In his arms, he vaguely held something inside the sweet potato corn.

As the man left, the familiarity faded. He Yu was full of confusion, only to feel that his chest was dull like a stone for a while, it was difficult to breathe, and he was chilling all over his body, and he raised his eyes to look at the man who was wrapped in gray clothes and far away, and remembered what the demon king had said: "Then if I tell you that you and I are the same kind, what will you do?"

Deep through the forest, there is an extremely hidden cave wall. It is difficult to find because of the heavy thorns of rattan thorns all over the surrounding area. If it weren't for the fact that the man in gray was not afraid of spikes and pierced through it.

"Mother, get up quickly, you see, the child has brought you something delicious. Inside the dark wall, the slightly rough joy of the man in gray was immediately heard.

"Really? That's great... I'm dying of hunger. After a faint and old cry of joy, He Yu came to the near door, and through a few beams of light, he saw an old woman with goosebumps and three long beards between her noses. It turned out to be a pair of rat spirits. He was about to rush in, but stopped when he saw the man in gray move.

"Mother, eat it quickly!" the man in gray happily put down the things in his hand, helped the old woman up, and picked up a sweet potato and handed it to her.

"En. The old woman looked very excited, her eyes flashed on her old face, and she picked up the sweet potato and gnawed wildly, making a gurgling sound from time to time. At the same time, he did not forget to say: "Son, you should eat quickly." He picked up a piece of corn and handed it to the man.

The man smiled happily, "Mother, the child is not hungry, you can eat more!" As he spoke, he gave the corn in his hand to the old woman again. The old woman seemed to have not eaten for a long time, and after eating the sweet potato in her hand, she immediately took the man's corn without saying a word, and began to nibble wildly. With this, I only heard the man continue: "Mother, eat slowly, don't worry, you see there is still here." ”

"En. The old woman just nodded, still gnawing wildly.

The man looked intently at the old woman and the corn she was about to nibble on, swallowed his saliva, held back the hunger in his belly, and said, "It's all useless to blame the child, you can find these after three days of going out." But don't worry, the child won't go for so long next time, and let the mother starve again..."

"Yes. It's okay. The old woman's mouth was stuffed with food, and she smiled vaguely: "The child doesn't have to worry, three days can still stand up to the old bones of the mother." The old woman swallowed the last corn kernel in her hand, reached out and patted the man on the back, picked up the remaining sweet potato, and said with a kind smile: "Son, eat! ”

In the old woman's caring eyes, the man looked down at the sweet potato, tears appeared in his small eyes, he thought that his mother would scold him for his late return, but he didn't expect that his mother not only didn't blame him, but also cared for and worried about him so much... I couldn't help but choke up on it and said, "Thank you, Auntie." ”

"Eat! I'm sorry for you, kid..."

I thought that the hungry mother would never notice the hunger in the eyes of her child, and would only take care of herself. Isn't this what the uncles of the young uncle said about their selfish and ruthless habits, but she noticed that she did not forget to leave food for her children in a state of extreme hunger. This made He Yu unconsciously verify that the monster was affectionate again. His mind was in turmoil. No, he can't be soft-hearted. No matter how they are all demons, since they will steal the people's food, it cannot be ruled out that they will not one day become demonic and cruel to human beings.

He Yu frowned, appeared in front of them, and said coldly: "Bold rat spirit, you are hiding here, waiting for the opportunity to steal the people's food, can you be guilty?"

They were frightened, hugged each other, leaned against the wall behind them, and said in fear, "You, who are you? You, what are you going to do..."

"Hmph, don't ask me who I am, I'll just ask you, do you have anything to say?" He Yu's eyes swelled with red, and Ling Ling swept towards them.

An invisible air pressure pressed against them.

The man in gray trembled all over, and he was so frightened that he didn't even dare to lift his eyes. After the old woman panicked, she turned sideways to protect him behind her, and said with a calm face: "I, we stole some of their food, but we didn't hurt anyone, so please let the young man open the net and let our mother and son go!"

"Yes, you haven't harmed anyone at the moment, but you may mutate one day and hurt the lives of others. ”

"Shaoxia said this, it seems that there is no room for negotiation, and we will definitely get rid of our mother and son today. The old woman's eyes narrowed with a dangerous glow, and her wrinkled face sank.

"Not bad. He Yu answered, facing them, with a slight wave in front of him, and said, "However, I still remember that you have not harmed the lives of others, and I will beat you back to your original form today." ”

"Haha. Joke, the old man has lived for such an age, and for the first time I heard that it was a gift to beat us back to our original shape... You must know that we demons, even those who practice well will take hundreds of years to transform into human form, and those who practice poorly will not be able to spend thousands of years. Hmph, do you think the old student will just let you do it obediently, as you wish?!" The old woman's eyes were horizontal, and she suddenly raised her head and screamed, and her real body appeared, only to see that her short ears were prominently displayed on her head, her beard between her nose was steep and shiny, her arms under her sleeves were gray and long, and her five-finger nails were like sharp claws and grabbed at He Yu frantically, and she shouted: "Child, run away!!
