Chapter 117: Are You a Monster?
The old-timers of Yunwuling are right, staying here in Vientiane City, you really don't have to worry about eating and drinking. Since the old-timers flew back to Yunwuling, the owner of this house has been replaced by Ye Qiu, and the residents of Vientiane City who come here to pray for them to kill the monsters are still in an endless stream, everyone knows that Ye Qiu is a new person sent by Yunwuling to guard here, and every time he comes, he also brings silver taels, Ye Qiu didn't want to accept it, but he couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the residents of Vientiane City, so he had to accept it.
But fortunately, there are indeed no big monsters in this Vientiane City, they are all small demons, what kind of rat demons who steal food, wolf demons who steal pigs at night, they have been busy for a while, Ye Qiu also believed what the old-timers said, there are indeed many small monsters in Vientiane City, but there are no terrible monsters, Ye Qiu's days are more moisturized than Yunwuling, originally Ye Qiu was very worried and scared when he went down the mountain this time, after these days, Ye Qiu's heart was much more relaxed.
But after a while, every time Ye Qiu saw those guests who came to ask for the destruction of the monsters for them, he felt a little strange feeling in his heart, this feeling was a little inexplicable, in short, he felt that something was wrong. Let's just say that when he was in the tea city in the past, every year when they encountered a big festival, they would go to the land temple to worship the land lord, and sometimes they would bring some scattered silver, or even just some fresh fruits or flowers, but these people who came to ask him to punish the demon were very generous many times, and the white silver fingers were so thick that they put it down casually, and they didn't feel distressed at all, if this kind of thing happened in the previous tea city, Ye Qiu couldn't believe it.
There are also the faces of those guests, what they look like, they can't look carefully, if you look carefully, you feel that some look like horse faces, some look like cow faces, the most ridiculous thing is that the person who came to ask him to subdue the demon last time looks like a monkey face, a big beard, that beard is still brown, the more Ye Qiu looks at it, the more interesting he feels, he is talking to that person, and then he unconsciously approached, wanting to see it clearly, who knew that the person seemed to be very timid, and immediately stood up from the chair, like Ye Qiu, and then turned around and left in a hurry, Ye Qiu looked at the back, thin, and swayed when he walked, if it weren't for the clothes he was wearing nowFrom a distance, I really thought it was a monkey. However, it is rude for people in a place to have a look, and to pick and choose what others look like.
Vientiane City is surrounded by rolling mountains, there is only one way out of the mountain, this is still the Tang Kingdom in the capture of Vientiane Kingdom after the construction of here, the previous people out of the mountain is not easy, to climb over several mountains, take the mountain road to the mountain outside it takes at least half a day's effort. The rivers in Vientiane City are crisscrossed, there are many old houses in the city, Ye Qiu likes to wander around the city when he has nothing to do, there are not many people in Vientiane City, everyone already knows him, a new disciple from Yunwuling, and they will say hello when they see Ye Qiu, but everyone keeps a deliberate distance from him for some reason, which makes Ye Qiu have an inexplicable sense of loneliness for the first time, Ye Qiu feels that maybe this is the local custom of Vientiane City, and Ye Qiu slowly got used to it in his heart.
After Ye Qiu woke up in the afternoon that day, he felt bored in the house, so he wandered around the Vientiane City with his mood, and unconsciously came to the outside of the city, at this time the sun had not yet set, and the weather was good, Ye Qiu was breathing fresh air outside the city, and was walking on a small wooden bridge, he felt a little tired at the moment, so he stopped and stood on the bridge to rest. Suddenly, a group of rabbits ran under his feet, and because there were too many of them, they almost tripped Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu moved away in a panic and avoided the group of rabbits, but Ye Qiu looked at the group of rabbits running in the distance with their legs spread out, his eyes widened, he saw that the four legs of the group of rabbits had lost their fur, revealing the skin like a human, Ye Qiu felt a little strange in his heart, he flew up and chased the group of rabbits, and came to a dilapidated courtyard, the group of rabbits had already run madly through the gap in the fence of the courtyard, Ye Qiu quickly ran over and grabbed a rabbit, took a closer look, and was surprised, the skin of the four legs of the rabbit is really the same as the color of human legs, but the rabbit claws have not completely become human claws, eyelashes have appeared on the rabbit's eyes, his mouth has become a shape that seems to be the shape of a human lip, Ye Qiu only felt a little disgusting in his heart, he didn't want to see anything else about the rabbit, so he threw the rabbit to the ground, the rabbit was miserably fallen by Ye Qiu, it was lying on the ground trembling, the fur on its body was shaking constantly, but the body couldn't stand up, Ye Qiu was about to exhale the blue light sword, and solved the rabbit demon with a sword, but heard a voice from the house: "Who is outside." ”
Ye Qiu was startled, he thought to himself, this rabbit demon ran into this courtyard in a hurry just now, could it be that there are any more powerful and terrifying monsters in this courtyard? Ye Qiu's blue light sword was already floating beside him, ready to attack at any time, the fence gate of the courtyard was slowly pushed open at this time, and a young man with a dignified face walked out calmly, he saw Ye Qiu's murderous appearance, but he was not panicked at all, he squatted down, picked up the rabbit demon from the ground, and then carefully checked whether the rabbit demon was injured.
Ye Qiu said angrily: "Monster, what kind of monster are you." ”
When the man heard Ye Qiu say this, he didn't look up, he was still busy checking the wound of the rabbit demon, and he said, "I'm not a monster. ”
Ye Qiu laughed and said, "The monsters all say that he is not a monster, why should I believe your words." The Qingguang Sword had already made a violent concussion sound at this time, which was a signal that the Qingguang Sword was about to attack, but this man didn't know if it was a monster yet, Ye Qiu didn't dare to do it immediately, he just wanted to scare and scare him first, so that he could show his flaws and show his original form of a monster.
The man then said, "I've heard of you, you're the new mage from Cloud Ridge." ”
As soon as Ye Qiu heard this, the Qingguang Sword was still preparing to attack just now, but now it stopped all of a sudden, Ye Qiu looked at the man, wearing a simple burlap clothes, like a countryman's dress, looking at it, he couldn't see that it looked like a monster.
The man still said calmly: "My name is Zong Ziyu, you recognize the wrong person, I really am not a monster." ”
Ye Qiu still didn't believe it, and said, "Zong Ziyu, this name is good, but you said that you are not a monster, but what is the matter with this rabbit demon in your hand?"
Zong Ziyu raised his head and glanced at Ye Qiu strangely, and said, "What is this, don't you know that such little demons can be seen everywhere in this Vientiane City?"
Ye Qiu thought to himself, what Zong Ziyu said was the truth, he didn't know how many such little demons he had killed since he came to Vientiane City, Zong Ziyu fiddled with the legs and feet of the rabbit demon, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Fortunately, it didn't hurt the bones, I'll go find him some ropes to fix its legs and feet first, and the wound will heal soon." After speaking, Zong Ziyu turned around and walked towards the courtyard.
Ye Qiu stood at the gate of the courtyard, and he didn't know whether to follow up or not, he didn't have Sun Wukong's fiery eyes, and he couldn't recognize whether the person in front of him was a monster, but Zong Ziyu glanced back at Ye Qiu and said, "Since you are here, they are all guests, you come in." ”
Ye Qiu heard this, but he still didn't move at the door, he was a little afraid that if this man was a monster, if there were any difficult monsters hidden in this courtyard, then he would just walk in like this, and he wouldn't fall into their ambush?
However, Ye Qiu thought in his heart, originally he came down the mountain this time to get rid of demons, since he came to this Vientiane City, he had never seen any powerful monsters seriously at all, maybe there would be some difficult monsters today. Ye Qiu let the Qingguang Sword float beside him, protecting himself, and then slowly walked into the courtyard step by step.
