In Gensokyo, the night is the stage where the yokai really belong. www.biquge.info This is inherited from ancient times - a long time ago, when humans did not gallop on the planet, a habit of the monsters may be caused by the unique culture of the demon race, or it may be just a kind of day and night...... There have never been any famous scholars in the demon race, and human scholars will not approach this dangerous creature, so when and how was it formed...... This is something that no one knows.
But it is undeniable that once the night comes: when the sun gives light to the other side of the earth, the night here will be dominated by the demons, and at this time the humans will return to their rooms, trembling and waiting for the dawn to come.
Throughout, though, there are some exceptions.
And this exception was not born because of some mutant species of yokai, the beginning of the exception started from humans.
It has to be said that human beings have the advantages that monsters do not have, and under sufficient conditions, they dare to take risks, and some humans always like to go off the beaten path, and they are very, very close to monsters, of course, this is not for the great reason of promoting national integration, but because these humans cannot adapt to the rules of the normal human race and begin to plan to go to some extremes, dealing with monsters that are described as man-eating monsters in novels and myths in exchange for the benefit of being a human race.
This spirit is the spirit of adventure, but at the beginning of the birth of Gensokyo: when the connection between humans and monsters was not clear, I don't know how many brave warriors paid the price of their lives: some because of the difference in the thoughts of the demon race, some because of different cultures and races, and some because of undeserved greed...... However, it is precisely because of the sacrifices of these countless predecessors that the relationship between humans and youkai in Gensokyo has finally become absolute.
Although they are aroused by the greed caused by the domination of profit and certain desires, it is undeniable that the humans of Gensokyo can get along with the yokai according to certain rules, and they are indispensable. The success of those sacrifices attracted friendly yokai who were curious about humans, and humans of different races began to communicate with each other and trade with them...... Accepting each other's cultures has played a positive role in the economy of the people of all nationalities and promoted the great integration of nationalities.
So, when Qin En, a pure-bred human, appeared in the night market of Gensokyo, which was open to youkai and some humans who like to take risks...... His presence didn't cause much trouble, and most of the youkai that could wander among people were in human form.
When he first came in, his original vigilance and fear of youkai eased a lot, and standing here, he could see many youkai of different races haunting here like ordinary people, and the youkai with alien customs made Qin En see a new world.
"Unfortunately, I don't have time to play here right now. β
Qin En's eyes became cold, and then he instantly became smiling and greeted people who didn't know him but looked at him in a friendly manner, and then took out a photo and asked, "Excuse me, have you seen this person?" After getting the disappointed answer, Qin En was not annoyed, and thanked him politely, and then his eyes began to search the crowd, occasionally finding some monsters in the crowd that were similar to the above content, and after finding that something was wrong, he shook his head and went to the next location.
The person in the photo is a girl with short green hair and bug-like antennae: having said that, at the beginning, Qin En almost mistook it for a little Zhengtai, until he looked closely and found that there was no Adam's apple.
And the source of the photo is not from someone else, but from the girl who once had a relationship, called Little Rabbit. She's the head snake of Gensokyo, so if you want to find someone, it's naturally best to find her, but it's just ...... This news is not free, Qin En paid some lovely money in exchange for this news.
Untilββββ
"Oh no, Mistia, I got into very, very big trouble last night!"
"What are you doing?"
"I ...... Alas, it's hard to put into words!"
When Qin En heard this voice, he just instinctively glanced at it, but after such a casual look, Qin En found the monster he found after walking through most of the area of the monster night market: Ligelu Knightbag.
...... of feature pairs It looks like a cape with insect wings, a white shirt, and knee-length pants...... With the antennae on the green hair, proper, this man ...... It's the opponent I've been looking for!
She sat on a stool with her back to her current direction, as if she was eating: she looked up at the words painted on the cloth: Night Sparrow Barbecue, well, it's such a shop, a very Japanese mobile supper stall.
And when Qin En approached, he was discovered by the clever monster boss, thinking that he was a guest, and greeted Qin En very warmly, the words welcome sounded particularly pleasing to the ear, as if it was singing, which made the little evil spirit that existed in Qin En's body disappear. When I sat down, I found that it was also a woman, a girl wearing a kimono and a small blue hat, and the wings on her back could be seen to be some kind of bird...... It seems that there are a lot of small broken bones in it, but the movements of her hands are not slow at all, and it can be seen that she has been in this industry for a long time.
The one who is called Misty should be the proprietress of the barbecue stall in front of her, because there is no one else else.
"What's wrong, guest, is there something wrong with me?"
It's just that Qin En's gaze has been looking at it for a long time, which naturally attracted the attention of this boss lady, and the green-haired insect girl Ligelu next to her, who looked like a middle-aged uncle, also glanced at Qin En.
"Hahaha~ It's just a little surprised, boss, your voice is so good. β
"Really?" Could it be that he had hit something? Qin En seemed very happy to find Mystia.
"Really, it sounds like singing, you're a singerβ"
"Hey, hey, hey~~"
The proprietress was a little shy, as if it was the first time she had been praised, she was a little embarrassed, and even forgot to ask Qin En what to order, and giggled there, but during this time, Qin En found something shining under the feet of Liglu next to her.
When he bent down curiously, he found that it was a coin...... And when he raised his head, he saw that Ligelu was also looking at him, it seemed that the action of bending over just now attracted the attention of this girl, Qin En tossed the coin, smiled at Ligelu and asked, "Is this yours?"
Liglu touched her pocket at this point, but when she found that she had no less money, she shook her head and said, "No, this is not mine." β
"Hahaha, it looks like you're lucky today. Qin En smiled heartily, let Hou put the coin here with the proprietress and ordered a drink that was just the right price. I took a few sips casually.
"By the way, Miss Youkai, what would you do if you found a wallet full of money?"
"Of course, I took it myself. Liglu was not very interested in Qin En's enthusiasm, and although she answered this sentence, she did not seem to be very enthusiastic.
"Oh oh, you're being frank...... It's just that I don't know if there are any police officers in this monster night market, and I'm worried that if I spend my money like this, someone will arrest me and settle the account. β
"It's okay, guest, it's just a small amount of money, and those guards won't bother you. β
"Haha, the boss lady makes me feel much more relieved when you say that, but even if the guards find me, the boss lady will help me speak~"
"Of course, you paid the guest~ Besides, it's just a coin, and it's not a magic prop, I say it's a guest, it's naturally a guest's. β
Misty didn't dislike Qin En and only ordered a cheap drink, which probably had something to do with the previous conversation, and she seemed very patient.
"You're here for the first time?" asked curiously, listening to Qin En's words, feeling his unfamiliarity with the rules here.
This is a kind of fun that is not to be left behind, but Qin En did not retaliate against Ligelu's coldness, but nodded at her and said, "As a human being, this is the first time I have come here, and I am a little curious...... But I don't understand a lot of the rules, so I'm a little nervous. β
"Don't be nervous, guest. Night Sparrow handed the barbecue to Ligrau next to her, while answering Qin En's question: "Although the guards here have the responsibility of maintaining law and order, they are not very strict, that is, they only appear when there is a death or someone destroys the market. β
"Hmm, don't they care about fights and stealing money?" Qin En looked at the lively night market behind him and felt a little unscientific.
"Looks like you're from the outside world. Ligaru interjected: "Only you outsiders can be so nervous, money? there's nothing to steal, the monsters who can come to the night market are never short of money, and so are humans." β
It may seem confusing, but in fact there are some rules...... No, or rather, not all of these humans and monsters in this seemingly complex and chaotic night market are the kind of people who commit adultery.
"It's natural, the monsters that can really cause trouble won't come to the people, and the humans who cause trouble ......" Ligrau pursed her lips and said with some pride, "We youkai are not vegetarians!"
"Youkai are self-defensive, and humans don't like to cause trouble...... It looks a little messy here, but there hasn't been any big trouble, and it's better if there is a fight, so we can watch the show. β
Liglu didn't care, her words seemed to be full of confidence, and Qin En paid a little attention and found some very small and very small scrub insects lying on her pants, but they didn't make any aggressive movements, but looked very well-behaved and honest.
"Hey, that's a lot of things...... As a thank you, I'll treat you to a drink, right?"
"No need, human, I don't have to pay for Mistya's stuff at all~"
Bug Ji grinned, but Misty glanced at her with some dissatisfaction, but she didn't get angry, it didn't seem that it was because Bug Ji was too strong, but the two of them didn't care about this kind of thing at all.
"Hey, it seems that you have a good relationship with the proprietress - boss, have a strong drink, I want the strongest kind: the best kind that can light a fire, and drink it well!"
Qin En happily paid the money, Misty was also very happy to take out the spirits, Qin En tried to take a sip, and found that this wine was really strong! The hot stimulated the throat and made the body burn, the vodka that Lao Maozi drank was also like this, right?
It looks like a Japanese-style supper stall, but in fact, the preparation is quite complete, and it is completely in line with international standards.
"Hey, hey, human, can you do it? Mistia's wine can really light a fire, don't force it. β
"It's okay, it's okay, a few more, boss lady!" Qin En's face was flushed, and Misty was even happier, so she simply took out several copies and paid the money anyway...... She's not worried about being a scoundrel either.
Qin En's heartiness, Qin En's directness, and the bewildering smile successfully made the two girls let down their guard, and Ligelu completely forgot the coldness at the beginning, and was influenced by Qin En's heroism but also ordered one. It's just that unlike Qin En's enthusiasm, Misty rolled her eyes and gave wine when dealing with Ligelu, and there were no other guests who were so drunk, so she sat on the bench and chatted, and poured down one cup of Liglu, even the monsters were a little red, and many small insects lying on her pants also ran away, as if they were scared away by the smell of alcohol on Ligelu: after discovering this, Qin En showed a weird and imperceptible smile, and then persuaded the wine to be more enthusiastic.
"Anyway, monster girl, what's the big trouble you just said, I heard you yelling before, did you encounter any trouble?"
Qin En shook his head as if he was drunk, and his words were a little blurry.
"Ah, that's a foolish thing I did yesterday......" Ligelu drank some, and Qin En didn't show any malice, so she simply said it.
"When I went out yesterday, I accidentally became a little curious about the red fog in the sky and inadvertently inhaled a little ...... Then I got confused, and I couldn't control it for a while........." When she said this, Ligeru looked left and right, and then said in a sly voice: "I accidentally ran to the big monster's shop and made a fuss!"
"The shop of the big youkai?!"
"Yes, the big monster is a fragrant sunflower shop. β
"Kazami...... Fragrance ......"
Unlike Ligru's almost self-defeating attitude, Misty almost screamed, looking scared, this must be Kazami Yuka's fame, right?
And Qin En, who is a subordinate of Kazami Yuka, is still drunk, and he doesn't seem to know whether he is listening or wandering...... It's just that the topic opened, and Ligelu couldn't control her mouth, so she just said it all - just inhaled a little red mist, the weird red mist that Qin En had ever seen, and under Ligelu's instructions, Qin En really saw the faint red mist looming high in the sky, which didn't look dense and seemed a little loose. But it was this kind of red mist that gave Ligelu the courage to go to the big monster shop to mess around.
"It's good that the big monster didn't show up...... Otherwise, I'm really screwed. Liglu patted her chest weakly, but then said with some pride: "However, that big monster is nothing great, during the day I have been terrified that the eagle dog under the monster will come out to retaliate against me, but nothing happened, it seems to be a light commander~~~"
"Commander Light, I remember that youkai has taken in a subordinate in recent times. β
"You know about this?"
"Of course I know, that big monster is a big beauty, how can I not pay attention to it. β
"Hey, human, you're worried...... She's only recruiting humans, humans who are simply used for errands~. β
Ligrau is full of confidence, and it has nothing to do with drunkenness, it's just her confidence as a monster.
"There's nothing to be afraid of a human, it's just a human who doesn't have much ability, I'm Liglu!
The monster who controls the bugs, Ligru, is not at all worried about the problem that his opponent is human.
"That's right, there are some differences in the bodies between humans and youkai, even if some human monks can have the ability to fight youkai, but that's just an individual, and they can't represent others. β
Qin En's exclamation did not cause anything unusual, Ligelu also listened, and the proprietress also echoed, and the two did not notice that the eyes held by this drunken man had changed: they had become very sharp.
"However, human beings have wisdom, and even if they are weak, they will not give up easily, and people will rely on wisdom, brains, and consciousness to deal with youkai...... With one's own strengths, Kebi's shortcomings are the essence of human beings, and if you underestimate human beings too much, you will suffer-"
Suddenly, Ligrau sensed that something was wrong, but just as she was about to say something with a puzzled expression, she found that liquid was dripping on her head, turning her short green hair wet, and then her abdomen hurt, and the whole person flew out! Misty was dumbfounded, she subconsciously wanted to do something, but Mistya, as a 'social monster', suddenly remembered: she connected these seemingly unrelated conversations, and Qin En's identity was formed in the mind of this boss lady.
Therefore, when Misia looked at Qin En, she had a little more fear, looked at her friend who flew out, closed her eyes in pain, and trembled in the corner, this gesture of acquaintance, Qin En was very satisfied.
Falling to the ground in such a disturbing place as the night market made the surrounding yokai and humans aware of the danger, and these humans quickly distanced themselves from the yokai, forming a very, very large void.
And Qin En, who was originally in the store, roared, jumped up violently, raised the wine bottle in his hand, and smashed Ligelu's head fiercely, the glass wine bottle snapped on Ligelu's head, and a faint blood flowed down Ligelu's head, in addition, Ligelu's body was full of the smell of spirits, and the wine was completely absorbed by her clothes and hair.
Qin En used the wine bottle that had been cracked in his hand: poked Ligelu's lower abdomen with a place full of spikes, and then glared at the onlookers with sharp eyes, and glared angrily: "What are you looking at?
There are many unruly people among the monsters, Qin En's words naturally aroused the anger of these people, looking at his movements like a street brawl of gangsters, these people are naturally fearless, clenching their fists and wanting to come up and be a hero-
However, Qin En's cruel smile and said a word, but these 'warriors' turned into 'bears'
"I'm the lord of the flowers of the four seasons, Qin En, the eagle dog of the wind and the fragrance, what's the matter, are you interested in fighting with me?"
Qin En held the glass piece hideously, gently cut his face, and asked with a cruel smile: "Come, you can beat me as you like, it's no problem to kill me!" I just hope that when Kazumi Yuka looks for you, don't pee your pants!"
Sure enough, this group of humans and youkai were timid...... Qin En had once tried to see that the prestige of the wind and the fragrance was very marketable among this group of monsters, so when he thought that he was an outlaw and roared like this, no warrior dared to appear again.
No one would go against an outlaw like Qin En (deliberately pretending), and no one would provoke Kazami Yuka...... And when the two come together: the outlaws under the Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers - this is basically the equivalent of a plague-like existence.
"Whoa, a bunch of pus!" Qin En let out a mouthful of spit disdainfully, and threw out the wine bottle in his hand halfway, but this crisp sound made the group of humans and monsters retreat one after another, and their timid appearance made Qin En let out an arrogant laugh.
Qin En took out his gloves: a glove specially designed to prepare for such a scene, smashed it on the head of Ligelu, who was now dizzy and ringing, and said, "This is a duel. β
And when he said the word duel, the guards, who had been watching all along, slowly withdrew - this is also one of the rules of Gensokyo: the rules of duels!
It's good, and no one will interrupt it, so that the following content should play on its own.
"Come on, Liglaw Knightbag, show your majesty and see how I beat you as a human!"
