"What about the second one?" I asked.

"Help a couple of young people put on a concert in Lao Cai. "It wobbled and looked happy.

“.... When have you been so artistic, it's a coffee shop and a concert. ”

"I don't understand this," said Shou, "those children always come to Lao Cai to eat at night, they must not be very rich, otherwise they will not always eat cheaply." ”

"Things in Lao Cai are already cheap. I said, "Now a random takeaway costs more than 20 yuan, compared to the old street, it is simply cheap." ”

"But it still seems to be quite expensive for them, I can hear them talk about music and dreams every time, but it seems that learning music is very expensive, and they should be teaching themselves most of the time. ”

"It's not a good habit to eavesdrop on people's conversations...", I made up my head and stood next to a few young people listening intently, but these young people didn't know that there was a youkai eavesdropping on them.

"It's not eavesdropping, it's collecting information. After a long time, I realized that these children like classical music, but their families do not support them to take this path, and they themselves have no money to go to professional schools, so they can only make a small fuss by themselves, and their biggest wish is to have a concert in a serious way. ”

"It's hard to talk about classical music," I said, "and the bar for concerts and the like is quite high, so it's not easy for them to find a venue." ”

"Uh-huh," Shou's head nodded like a rattle, "so I want to help them hold a concert in Lao Cai, which can be regarded as a wish fulfillment." ”

"That's... Do you know what a concert is like? A place like Lao Cai is not very suitable for a concert..."Noisy snack street and classical music... The picture is too beautiful.

Furry didn't seem to understand what I meant.

"Concerts are usually held in very formal settings, such as ornate halls, velvet chairs, red carpets, everyone in suits and leather shoes, and you need to watch the performers quietly throughout the whole process, and there will be applause only at the end of the repertoire, and there will be a repertoire and so on. I shook my head, "I won't talk about the rest, it's hard to solve it just because it's quiet, and those young people probably don't want to hold their first concert in such a place." ”

"Well," Furry was a little deflated, "what about that, they're the hardest working kids I've ever met." ”

"Alas... Let's start with your third wish. I said, "I'll see which one is easier to implement first." ”

"The third wish, I want to do something for the vendors on the old street. ”

"Huh?"

"They are usually very busy, and they basically can't stop from morning to night to earn money, many of their children go to school in their hometowns, and most of the elderly in the family are not in the local area," Shou said, "I want to get them together before the old street is demolished." ”

“... Not to mention anything else, it takes a lot of money just to gather these people in City A, and it costs money to travel and stay, so you can't let people spend their own money, and come all the way to City A just to let them have a meal. "I covered my head, and my hairy brain hole was a little too big," these people have earned their hard-earned money. ”

"I've thought about this for a long time!" Shou said proudly, "You don't have to worry about money, I have money." ”

"You're a monster... Where did the money come from. ”

"Isn't your part-time grocery store a youkai? "Shou Bai gave me a look.

Also, most of the things that the monsters bring are very valuable in human society, and a random gem or something is enough to exchange for the travel expenses and accommodation of many people.

"Find the girl who the owner of the coffee shop admires, and give the young people a concert so that the vendors can spend time with their families...... Hey, didn't you say that your own desires are all for others, and for humans. I felt like I had a black line on my face, "Sure enough, you're very unfriendly to youkai... Is it really good to be a youkai..."

"As a human, you won't understand," Mamoru said, "just as youkai things are valuable to you, there are some things that humans are precious to youkai." ”

"What?"

"Feelings. Shou's furry body began to sway from side to side again, "Human beings are very weak creatures, although they have smart brains, their lifespan is so short, they can easily die if they are injured, their attack power is almost zero, and they need to keep eating to conserve their strength. But such a weak creature has a particularly strong heart, not only to gain a foothold in this vast and dangerous world, but also to climb to the top of many creatures, which all come from your emotional world. ”

"But youkai have feelings, too. I said.

"You have a lot of emotions compared to youkai, and youkai only have feelings for a few individuals, but humans are not. You have affection, friendship, love, compassion and tolerance, and you can even have feelings for mountains and rivers at the same time, and these feelings connect people with each other, people and nature, and invisibly become a huge force, which is why human beings, who seem to be weak, can become the most powerful species. ”

"You only see the good," I couldn't bear to say, after all, it was the first time I had seen a youkai with such a good opinion of humans, "Humans also have a very bad side, they are greedy, unkind, selfish, and people can also hurt each other, and even destroy nature. ”

"Even so, it will not affect the greatness of your emotional world. "Did you know that many youkai are very envious of the human emotional world, which is the world that is above the real world, and your emotions can not only be preserved in the torrent of time and natural changes, but will also be passed down from generation to generation." From the heart to the body, and from the body to the heart, it never stops and never disappears. Therefore, even if human beings usually fight with each other, once they encounter a very bad situation, they will quickly let go of all previous contradictions, quickly weave a tight emotional web, and become a force to overcome everything. This is beyond the reach of youkai. ”

"You're talking too high," I was a little confused, "what does that youkai look like?"

"Youkai... Youkai are independent of other youkai, although there are a few youkai who live in groups, but they also only live together, most of the youkai only have emotions similar to those between you humans in nature, and a few youkai who have been in contact with humans will be affected by the emotional world of humans, thus generating more types of feelings, some for humans, some for other youkai, and some for something. ”

"If you have too much of this kind of feeling, it's not a good thing for youkai. I said, "Humans have a short lifespan, but youkai can live a long time, and youkai who are already emotionally single will be sad if they lose each other." ”

"Indeed, the lifespan of human beings is not worth mentioning for youkai, and once youkai have more feelings, there is no way to return to the simple life of the past, and the heart is like having a hole that will never be filled, and it will be easy to feel lonely, lost, sad, and panic. "But on the other hand, if you touch your emotional world, your life will be much more exciting." ”

"Do youkai know all this?" I asked.

"Basically, we all know that humans are like viruses in the concept of yokai, and most yokai shudder when they mention humans," Mamoru said, "but even so, there are still many youkai who will be attracted to humans, because for youkai, the emotional world of human beings, like hallucinogens, is dangerous and full of temptation, and once you have tried the beauty of this world, you can never get out of it." ”
