The book of I Ching is still spotless, and Tan Qiuyan feels that the small world of his small village can't do this, and there will be some dust in the room.

She turned the first page of the Book of Changes: Shangjing, the first hexagram, this is a serious Book of Changes, there is nothing else mysterious, shake the cover, and nothing falls out.

I touched the book with my consciousness and nothing happened.

She looked at her watch, it was 3:50 p.m., and it was about 5:40 p.m. after dark, and the days were getting shorter and the nights longer.

She leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.

She closed her eyes, and after about a quarter of an hour, the wall on the right side of the room moved, and a human hand reached out, and at the end of the elbow was the armpit, and one eye in the armpit looked at Tan Qiuyan who was leaning back in the chair.

After waiting for about a minute, seeing that she still did not move, gradually her head also poked out, first two horns, then a human face, and the whole head poked out.

A monster with a sheep's head and a human face, with no eyes on its face, eyes under its armpits, limbs like sheep, and claws like human hands.

The scrawny body seemed to shake a little after getting out of the wall.

It bared its mouth full of sharp teeth and stared at Tan Qiuyan's neck.

Just as it was about to bite down, a vine that came from nowhere had already bound it.

Tan Qiuyan turned his head and stood up with a smile.

"I've got you!"

The last time I came, I felt that this wall was disobedient, but this time she just wanted to try, but she didn't expect to really catch a monster out.

The monster made a sound begging for mercy, like a baby's cry.

Tan Qiuyan looked at it, how did this thing look so much like the monster "roe deer owl (xiao)" described in the book.

However, she was a little unsure, this thing was too thin, completely different from the legend.

Communicate with the sea of knowledge, "Are you a roe deer owl?" ”

The monster's armpit eyes glanced at her and nodded.

It's good to be able to communicate, Tan Qiuyan breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Why are you so thin?" ”

The roe owl's eyes suddenly filled with tears: "I entered this place by mistake more than twenty years ago, and I couldn't get out of any thoughts. I live by eating the animals here, and when the animals are eaten, the fish are eaten, even the insects are eaten, and everything is eaten, and I can't get out. ”

"I've been hungry for twenty-five years!"

The roe deer owl continued to cry after speaking, and its strange face was indeed thin and out of appearance.

Tan Qiuyan suddenly felt a trace of sympathy that shouldn't have appeared, it was about to eat itself just now. She shook her head, leaving that bit of sympathy behind.

"Were there humans here when you came in?"

"No, no one, no one, I haven't eaten anyone." It seems to think of sad things again.

"I just escaped from that ghost place, and I entered this ghost place again, and my roe owl's life is so miserable!"

Tan Qiuyan looked at the roar of crying and grabbing the ground, and the corners of his mouth twitched, the rumors are not credible, this thing has a more widely spread name: gluttony.

"Why don't you eat rice? So much rice here? Tan Qiuyan took out a rice ear left in the space bead by the way and held it up to show it.

"I'm not a vegetarian." The roe deer owl's momentum suddenly fell: "And it's not delicious, it's not delicious at all." ”

It seems that it has also tried to eat wild rice.

Tan Qiuyan looked at it a little difficult, this thing can't be put down, but it won't kill it. This was an ancient monster after all, and she remembered that the boy had taken out a piece of black meat in the forbidden area of Dragon Bone Mountain before.

This piece of meat is still in its own space bead. The black monster she had seen in the sea of knowledge of the child, it was majestic and huge, but because Tai Sui was the main body, it moved slowly.

And the skinny monster in front of him really can't see half of the momentum.

"If you eat your flesh, you will be able to gain the ability to devour, and you can even regrow limbs?" Tan Qiuyan pulled over the chair and sat down again.

The roe deer owl had a frightened expression on its face, and it didn't make a sound for a long time.

Tan Qiuyan asked again: "Did you give up some parts of yourself and weaken your strength in order to escape from that prison before, and then escaped?" ”

This is about Qiuyan's analysis. The boy should also come out of the forbidden area, because he only has a remnant soul left, and the forbidden area can't trap him.

The meat cut by the roe deer owl should have been eaten by Tai Sui, and then turned into an immortal monster.

Like the nine-tailed fox, he was also weakened to a certain extent before he could escape, and he was imprisoned again because he weakened too much strength.

"How do you know? I gave up half of my body in order to escape, and so did the stinky bird, and when I came out, I gave it some flesh and blood to let it grow wings again, and it carried me all the way here, and it went to forage, and I accidentally entered here.

After that, I made a living by devouring the animals here, and when I finally gave birth to the second half of my body, I ran out of food. ”

It sounds like this guy in front of him is really miserable.

Tan Qiuyan swelled with sympathy again.

"That bird is a cranium?"

"Yes, it's the stinky bird, you've seen it? This damn stinky bird left me here! ”

Talking about Qiuyan holding his forehead and sighing, it is really a creation and making people, without any step, it can't be so miserable now.

"If I hire you, will you? If you agree, I'll get you food. Tan Qiuyan thought of a way to get the best of both worlds.

The employment contract may restrict its actions. And let it not have any sense of resistance to itself.

After speaking, she also deliberately took out a fragrant roast chicken from the space bead.

The roe owl's face twitched, its nose took a long breath, and its eyes were full of longing: "Okay, I'm willing, but when you cut my flesh, can you promise me a condition?" ”

Tan Qiuyan was a little surprised, did it think that hiring it was to provide it with a body for itself? Before she could reply, it continued:

"I can't move the first half." The roe deer owl raised its head and looked at Tan Qiuyan with the last stubbornness.

Tan Qiuyan struggled to hold back a smile and nodded: "Okay, I promise you." ”

Waiting for the employment contract to shine, Tan Qiuyan loosened the vine and threw the roast chicken to it.

Now I know why there aren't any living creatures here. But the reason for the disappearance of the other party has not yet been found.

I went out for a walk, but I still found nothing, and then the sky gradually darkened.

She sat down by the lake, waited for a while, and saw the moon appear in the eastern sky.

The small world at night is completely different from the daytime, and the ducks in the lake have come ashore, huddled in a pile of grass, and snuggle up to each other.

The wind blew through the bamboo grove on the hill, making a rattling sound, and the woods farther away were quiet, and she stood up.

The wind rises, and the whole person is in mid-air, looking into the distance, looking at the whole small world, looking for the difference from the daytime.
