The demon was slightly stunned and looked at Wang Xiaoyun, who was hesitant.

Wang Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment before he said slowly: "My sister and I were not captured when we were digging wild vegetables, but were sacrificed to that monster by the village chief. ”

While speaking, Wang Xiaoyun lowered his head, not daring to look at the demon's eyes again.

"Sacrifices?" The demon was surprised.

Wang Xiaoyun nodded slowly, and said in a low voice: "Earlier, the village was often disturbed by the monsters in the Yunmeng Forest, until some time ago, the village chief's son came back from out of town, and he reached an agreement with the monsters on behalf of the village, and the monsters will no longer attack the village, but in exchange, the village needs to sacrifice two young women as sacrifices every year......"

The demon didn't know how to comfort her, so he gently touched her head and said softly: "Xiaoyun, don't be afraid, after I send you home, I will go and reason with your village chief." Promise that he will not sacrifice anyone as a sacrifice to the youkai in the future. ”

Wang Xiaoyun raised his head, glanced at the demon cautiously, and saw that she didn't mean to be angry or blamed, so he asked in a low voice: "Sister Fairy, don't you blame me for lying to you?" ”

The demon laughed softly: "Don't call me fairy sister, in fact, I have something to hide from you." ”

Wang Xiaoyun let out an "ah" in surprise, and the demon continued: "Actually, my name is the demon demon, not an immortal cultivator of the Mengze Sect, but a peach demon. ”

"At that time, you were captive by youkai, and I was worried that telling you frankly would make you afraid of me, so I made up an identity and took you out of there first."

Wang Xiaoyun looked at the demon in a daze and didn't say a word, the demon thought that it really scared her, and hurriedly said: "Xiaoyun doesn't have to be afraid, there are good and bad monsters." And what I'm saying isn't all fabricated, Pu Jia is indeed my friend. ”

"Really?" Wang Xiaoyun asked timidly, "Is Pu Jia really your friend?" ”

"Of course." The demon nodded proudly, "He got my name from me." ”

"Are you really going to help me go and intercede with the village chief and stop sacrificing me to youkai?" Wang Xiaoyun asked again.

"It's nature." The demon said firmly.

When the demon and Wang Xiaoyun entered the village, it was close to noon, every household was cooking, and the streets were empty.

So the two of them came to Wang Xiaoyun's house very smoothly.

"Father, mother, my daughter is back." As soon as he entered the courtyard, Wang Xiaoyun couldn't wait to shout.

The dilapidated wood door slowly opened, and an old woman with hair as hard as snow walked out of the house.

Her eyes were cloudy, and her thin cheeks were full of wrinkles, like a shriveled peeling old bark.

The moment she saw the old woman, tears poured out of Wang Xiaoyun's eyes, and she took three steps and two steps into the old woman's arms, crying silently.

"Yun'er, it's good to come back." Tears flashed in the old woman's cloudy pupils, she gently stroked Wang Xiaoyun's hair, and kept muttering "It's good to come back".

"But sister, she ......" Before Wang Xiaoyun finished speaking, a bald old man with a leaning body and a cane walked out of the house.

"Daddy......" Wang Xiaoyun crossed his mother's shoulder and called softly.

"Why are you back?" The old man's snow-white eyebrows were twisted together, and his forehead, which was already full of wrinkles, was now more like an old sheepskin shrunk into a ball.

"What nonsense are you talking about, old man? Yun'er finally came back...... "The old woman complained.

The old man sighed and bowed to Wang Xiaoyun: "You go, while no one sees you." ”

"Old man, where do you let Yun'er go?" The old woman wiped a handful of tears and said in a hoarse voice.

"You can go anywhere, as long as you never go back to this villageβ€”"

"Old man, you just let Xiaoyun stay at home." The demon took a step forward, interrupted the old man's words, and continued, "I already know the situation here, I will go and persuade the village chief, you don't have to worry." ”

"This girl, are you?" The old man wondered.

"Her name is Youyou, and she is my savior." Wang Xiaoyun introduced.

The old woman staggered forward, and as soon as her thin hand grasped the demon's arm, she was about to bow down. The demon hurriedly supported her and said, "The old man doesn't have to be like this, he should draw a knife to help when he sees injustice, but it's a pity that he didn't have time to save your little daughter." ”

Wang Xiaoyun's father also stepped forward at this moment, he carefully looked at the demon, and it was hard to believe that this weak-looking girl could rescue her daughter from the hands of the fierce and cruel monster.

Wang Xiaoyun saw the confusion in his father's eyes, and hurriedly explained: "Dad, the demon is not an ordinary girl, she is a very powerful peach demon who used a spell to take me out." ”

Then, she added fuel and vinegar to tell her parents how the demon rescued her from danger, and finally emphasized that the demon is Pujia's good friend.

"So, her suggestion, the village chief will definitely listen." Wang Xiaoyun finally added this sentence, and then looked at his father with anticipation.

Wang Xiaoyun's mother also cast her prayerful gaze on the old man's body, he sighed, and said, "Since you are a friend of the Pujia Immortal, then please go into the house." ”

The room was small, and the place where you entered the door was piled with firewood of different sizes, and in the middle was placed a four-legged wooden table soaked in oil, and four chairs surrounded the table, and on the table were two people with chopsticks.

There is a door on the left and right sides of the main hall, and the smell of food wafts from the left hand side, which should be in front of the cooking hall, and the right hand side must be the inner room for resting and living.

The old woman took Wang Xiaoyun to the inner room to change clothes, and the old man beckoned the demon to sit down at the table.

"Listen to Xiaoyun, are you a friend of the Pujia Immortals?" The old man asked.

"Yes, old man." The demon nodded.

"We mortals, although we often hear the great names of the Pujia Immortals, we have never had the opportunity to see the true face." The old man's tone was full of admiration, "I don't know if he is still practicing in Yunmeng Mountain now?" ”

Thinking of the menacing beast tide and the now missing Pu Jia, the demon didn't know how to answer the old man's question, so he could only pray for Pu Jia over and over again in his heart.

"Well, he is still on Yunmeng Mountain, and he has never left." The demon said, thinking in his heart how good it would be if he really didn't leave.

The old man nodded slowly, and at this time, the old woman and Wang Xiaoyun, who had changed her clothes, walked out, and the old man stood up and said slowly: "You two accompany the guests well, and I will go to the village chief's house to borrow a chicken." The demon girl has a great favor in our family, so we have to treat others well. ”
