"What should I do, what should I do!" I sat on the beach, and kept asking myself, what happened so suddenly, how about Guan Qing?

Tsubaki's "meow" sound brought me back to my senses, I ran to her, the white cat fell hard to save me, and no longer had the strength to become human, but fortunately, there was no rough, I carried her to a place far away from the sea, and gently put her on the beach.

"You rest here for a while, I have to..." I originally wanted to say that I would go to find Guan Qing, but later I found that I didn't know where to look for it.

Tsubaki licked my hand and the look in her eyes told me, "Go ahead." ”

Running back to the beach, I approached the water, closed my eyes, and wanted to feel the monster that had dragged Guan Qing away again. But nothing could be heard except the sound of the waves. The soaked clothes were cold against my body, and I felt like I was shaking all over, no, I had to calm myself down, and if I calmed down again, I would definitely feel something.

Singing? How can there be singing? Yes, from the sea not far away, there was a gentle singing, this voice seemed to have its own strength of recovery, and my tense heart also breathed a long sigh of relief.

That's right, this voice is You Zhen's voice. This is the Black Sea, not far from the merman. I heard the song getting closer and closer to me, and when I opened my eyes, You Zhen in the moonlight was already in front of me, and Guan Qing was lying on the beach, as if she was asleep.

"Shut him down..."

"He's fine, he'll wake up in a moment. "You Zhen in the form of a shark is more beautiful than her in human form, and her eyes have never left Guan Qing.

"That's good. I sighed, and my legs went limp, and I sat on the ground with my butt in the moment.

The merman's body shimmered under the moon, "I heard his call, although it was faint, but I heard it and followed all the way." ”

"Good thing you came along. I said.

"What's wrong with Guan Qing? Doesn't he see the monster?Why do I hear his call?..." You Zhen's questions were one after another, and her eyes were full of anticipation and uneasiness.

"I'll tell you when he wakes up. I saw Guan Qing's hand move slightly, "This story is a long story. Do you know what it was that attacked Guan Qing just now?"

"It's a giant octopus that has lived for many years, it is docile by nature, afraid of humans, and never comes near the coast," You Zhen leaned down and touched Guan Qing's hair, "But recently, there seems to be something dangerous in the Black Sea, many animals and monsters have been disturbed, and there has been more than one incident of humans being attacked by deep-sea animals, and it is rumored that most of the people who have been attacked are people with strong demonic powers." ”

“... So the monster's target should actually be me. "Self-blame came to my heart, and I almost hurt Guan Qing.

You Zhen shook her head, "Lord Ye Ke, please don't blame yourself, the octopus just now didn't attack Guan Qing because of you, but because of the whistle." ”

I remembered that Guan Qing was whistling the melody of the song before he was pulled into the sea.

"It is dangerous to whistle at night on the seashore, and whistling is like a spell of bewilderment, and it is easy to attract dangerous creatures. "Of course, even if you don't whistle, Lord Ye Ke had better stay away from this water, although the octopus will not attack you, but it is not good to say that there will be more terrifying monsters." ”

“... What kind of youkai?" "I never realized that there would be youkai attacking me.

"I don't know, but when I used infrasound waves to temporarily chase away the octopus in the sea just now, I felt something in this sea area about to move, and this aura made me tremble, and it definitely wouldn't be a kind guy, so Lord Yek had better be careful. ”

Guan Qing sat up suddenly, his back covered with sand, panting, and his eyes full of horror.

"Are you alright?" I tapped him on the shoulder, who knew he almost didn't punch me, "Hey! it's me, Yeke!"

He looked at me for a full five seconds, "I just... Isn't it... By a thing... Caught in the sea...", he spoke intermittently, as if recalling what he had just experienced.

“... Well, but You Zhen saved you, and she's right next to you now. I pointed to Youzhen's location, and I saw her smile.

Guan Qing looked at me for another five seconds, "Yes... I vaguely felt like I was going to drown when someone picked me up, and in an instant I was able to breathe smoothly, and I heard the singing... Song... You Zhen... You Zhen!" he jerked in You Zhen's direction.

I burst out laughing, "Your reflex arc is too long, you can't see it, but she's standing next to you right now, and she says she hears your... Guan Qing?"

Guan Qing in front of me looked in You Zhen's direction, slowly stood up, raised his left hand, and gently stroked You Zhen's cheek, "I can finally see you." ”

I was stunned in place, could it be that Guan Qing could already see it?

Tsubaki limped to my side, "Because the merman is the monster who is attached to him, naturally he also needs the appearance of this monster to open the talent." ”

I hurriedly hugged her, "Are you feeling better?

Tsubaki stuck out his tongue, "It's not a big deal, it's just a broken foot, and it'll be fine in a while." Anyway, let's not be light bulbs here, they haven't seen each other for so long, so I guess we have a lot to say. ”

After I confirmed that Guan Qing was fine, I left the beach with Tsubaki, and if You Zhen was there, there would be no problem.

On the way back, I happened to meet the carnival of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Tsubaki instantly forgot that his feet hurt and shouted to go and see, all kinds of colored lights illuminated the night, the place where the lion played the drum was cheerful, and there was a long queue in the place to eat the Lantern Festival, we looked at the stilts, and also put the Kong Ming lantern, I scratched my ears and scratched my cheeks when guessing the lantern riddle, and finally guessed the right one, the prize was a rabbit lamp that made Tsubaki happy all night, and it was so noisy until more than eleven o'clock in the evening, we were both tired of playing, and sat on the big stone not far from the fire to catch our breath.

"Aren't you having fun?" Tsubaki asked suddenly.

"No, I'm happy. ”

"Lying," Tsubaki stared into my eyes, "Is it because of Guan Qing?"

“... Well. I was seen through by her, "There are really monsters in the world that can attack humans, today I watched Guan Qing disappear in front of me, but I couldn't do anything, I sometimes wonder if my demonic power will really bring trouble to the people around me." ”

"Well... Your demonic power is so powerful, find a way to use it. Tsubaki said.

I thought of the demon slayer.

"Also, there are so many people who want to see youkai, so it's nice to see them. She looked up at the moon in the sky.

"Tsubaki. ”

"Huh?"

"What if one day, I can't see it anymore. I asked her, "I've heard the old man say about the Unsolved Bond, but I don't know who my Unsolved Bond is, and I don't know what will happen in the future, maybe one day, I will never see it again, like the old man." ”

"You still know," Tsubaki still looked at the moon, "the old man actually told you everything, and I didn't want to tell you after putting up with it for so long." She lowered her head and put the rabbit lamp in front of her, "Why do you think so much, it's hard for a person of your demon power level not to see monsters, and even if there is really such a day, I have thought about it, if I can't see it, I can't see it, then I'll accompany you like a cat, how big is it." ”

An unexpected and flattering answer.

"It's really like your answer. I smiled, too, it's useless to think so much, it's better to cherish the present and think about how to protect them from harm.

With a "bang", fireworks exploded in the sky above us.

"Wow, Yak, there's fireworks tonight!" Tsubaki jumped down from the stone and said in a jumping motion, "Look, there are so many! It'......s beautiful! Wow, there's another one! Ah, this one looks like a flower!

She smiled so happily that she didn't want to miss any of the fireworks, and the light of the sky illuminated her face again and again, hoping that she would always be so happy. I don't regret seeing youkai at all, and sometimes I can see more beauty when I can see youkai, such as the sky of the Phantom Sea under the fireworks, and Tsubaki under the fireworks.

"Tsubaki, I think we should have a good discussion about our relationship. ”

"What's wrong? Are you louder?"

"I feel like I..."

As soon as he was halfway through the sentence, there was a sudden loud noise, and a gorgeous cloud in the sky of the Phantom Sea quickly dimmed and fell with a bang.
