Chapter 13: Strange Dress
Jinhua is not a particular person, and Li Yao'er is too young to understand the rules of worship, so the worship between the two looks like a child's play.
Neither look at the day, nor set up incense cases, and there are no tributes for the three animals, and even the kowtow section Jinhua originally wanted to omit.
Or Li Yao'er blinked her eyes and said, you should kneel down in prayer, pray to the heavens to do the count, and Jinhua nodded indifferently.
As for the statement that he died on the same day, the same month, and the same year, Li Yao'er would not say it, Jinhua felt too embarrassed, so the two did not read it.
One of them knelt respectfully and reverently, and the other bowed to the sky with a casual attitude, and the prostration was completed.
After the salute, Li Yao'er rubbed the corners of her clothes, looked at Jinhua with uneasy eyes and asked.
"Sister, that, how is my family, when can we go out, I'm afraid they will be worried......"
Jinhua sat on the ground from a kneeling appearance, and replied to her indifferently.
"Don't worry, they left before the sun came out, and they won't remember last night's events, they will only remember looking for you in the mountains all night. ”
"As for leaving, you can't get out yet, you can't leave until tonight, when the moon comes out. ”
When Li Yao'er heard that she had to wait until the night, she couldn't help but collapse her little face.
But she looked at Jinhua, who was sitting on the ground and looked very embarrassed, and knew that it was useless to be anxious, but fortunately, the snake demon was dead and there was no danger, as long as she stayed up until night, she could go out.
Thinking like this, Li Yao'er also sat next to Jinhua.
After being frightened all night, she relaxed and sat down, only to find that her whole body was very sore, and her stomach was hungry, and the hunger came up again.
Li Yao'er rubbed her hungry stomach, and her eyes wandered around the deserted mountain col, confirming that there was really nothing to eat.
She looked at the scene in front of her, and the experience of last night came back to her mind, and it was only then that she had the opportunity to ask the doubts in her heart.
"Sister Jinhua, how can there be a snake demon in this mountain col, where did it come from?"
Li Yao'er grew up at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, and she had never heard adults say that there was something abnormal on this mountain.
Hearing Li Yao'er's question, Jinhua supported the ground with his left hand, and looked at Li Yao'er's face twice without a trace of the corner of his eye, seeing that she looked at herself innocently and curiously, Jinhua's eyes dimmed, and he looked up into the distance and said.
"That's not a snake demon, it's an earthworm demon. ”
"It should be three hundred years ago, the aura in the lotus array leaked out, and this dead earthworm got a chance to cultivate into a demon, and since then it has been hiding in the lotus array, relying on the remaining aura in the big array to cultivate. ”
Li Yao'er was surprised to hear it, she looked at Jinhua for a moment and continued to ask.
"That monster is an earthworm! It's so big! It's been alive for 300 years?!"
"Sister Jinhua, since it has lived for three hundred years, how could you talk about that snake yesterday...... Earthworms, demons, monsters came out of the big array because of you?"
No matter how you look at it, Jinhua is only fifteen or sixteen years old, how can he have anything to do with a big monster that is more than 300 years old.
Hearing this, Jin Hua withdrew his gaze looking into the distance, turned his head, looked at Li Yao'er with a playful look, and said in a nonchalant tone.
"Because, I am a great monster that is even more powerful than it, and I have been suppressed in this Nine Rank Lotus Array for much longer than that earthworm. ”
"Three hundred years ago, that worm had a chance to become a demon because of the leakage of a large array of spiritual energy when my soul was replenished. ”
"The night before yesterday, you slept in this big array, I opened the lotus array, and with a drop of your eyebrows, the worm escaped from the shackles of the lotus array. ”
When Jin Hua said this, his expression was casual, as if what he said was just an ordinary thing, but if you pay attention, you will find that he has actually been silently examining Li Yao'er's expression.
Li Yao'er just asked casually, who expected to get such an answer from Jinhua, although Jinhua said it easily and even with some impropriety, Li Yao'er still felt a chill in her back when she heard it, and her whole body immediately became stiff.
Sister Jinhua is also a monster?!
She was stiff, her eyes were timid, she dodged and carefully looked at Jinhua's expression, examined the authenticity of her words, and said with a dry smile in her mouth.
"Sister Jinhua, don't scare me, you don't look like a monster at all. ”
It's not like it, Jinhua's body is full of traces left by the fight with the big snake, dirty, messy and full of mud spots.
Demons are not all powerful, if she is really a monster stronger than an earthworm demon, how can she be so embarrassed.
And how could a demon risk his life to kill another youkai in order to protect them.
The most important thing is that Jinhua looks fresh and beautiful in the daylight, not at all like the ugly and terrifying monsters in the legend, and is clearly a handsome and good-looking sister.
Thinking like this, Li Yao'er's courage increased by two points, and she looked at Jinhua and reiterated again.
"Sister, you're not a monster at all, are you teasing me?"
Jinhua also looked at Li Yao'er, the two looked at each other, Jinhua was silent for a while, took the lead in looking away, and a nonchalant smile pulled out from the corner of his mouth.
"Well, you're so smart, I'm teasing you, I'm actually a Taoist priest, I happened to pass by here, and I saw that there was a big demon subduing array here, and there was a demon hidden under the big array, so I got rid of it. ”
What a resurrection, what a monster, it doesn't sound reliable!
Li Yao'er got Jinhua's affirmation, and the last trace of doubt in her heart followed, she patted her chest and muttered in a dissatisfied tone.
"Sister Jinhua, why are you teasing me, I was really scared just now. ”
Jinhua didn't seem to want to discuss this topic anymore, he looked at Li Yao'er who had palpitations, and changed the topic as if unintentionally and with some curiosity.
"Then again, little girl, where did you tell that I was a woman?"
Li Yao'er blinked in confusion, she pointed to the skirt on Jinhua's body, and said inexplicably.
"Sister, what are you talking about? You look so good, and you're wearing a skirt, and I'm not blind, why can't I see that you're a woman?"
Halfway through speaking, she carefully looked at Jinhua's appearance with some suspicion.
Thin eyebrows, big eyes, fair complexion, although the skeleton is larger than ordinary women, but this length is better than many women she has seen.
Is it difficult to grow up like this, a person in a skirt can still be a man?
Li Yao'er asked uncertainly while looking.
"Is it difficult to become a sister, can you still not be a woman?"
After speaking, she added dissatisfied.
"And sister, I'm ten years old this year, not a little girl!"
Jinhua automatically ignored Li Yao'er's last sentence.
She followed Li Yao'er's fingers, looked down at the outfit of her top and bottom, and a trace of understanding rose in her heart.
'In this day and age, only women would wear such clothes, and when he was still alive, he was the most popular dress among those young talents!'
Time has changed, the dressing style in the world is really changeable, and it is no wonder that he has been locked up in the lotus array for too long, and he doesn't even know what the men are dressed like nowadays. ’
Speaking of which, the group of people last night did seem to be dressed very differently from him.
Thinking of his self-proclaimed elegant dress, which was a strange woman's dress in Li Yao'er's eyes, Jinhua suddenly felt a little awkward.
However, he had always been thick-skinned, and he was only embarrassed for a moment before regaining his confidence.
A person like him, no matter how weird the clothes he wears, others should think they look good!
Jinhua casually lifted the 'skirt' under him, and asked Li Yao'er with some bad taste.
"Of course I'm a woman, sister, you see that my clothes are still good. ”
