Chapter 151: Let's Eat Roast**
Li Yun was by no means a virgin, but after the emotional ups and downs, his thinking was slightly confused. This divergence spread thousands of miles away, leaving the victims affected by the mourning bird - including himself - temporarily behind.
He also didn't expect that Yi Xin, who ran out early this morning to "meet", and Xue Xiaolian, who had just said that he was going out for a walk, would come back together so easily, and brought back the corpse of the mourning bird, and said that he would make roast chicken to eat.
As if being slapped by the waves, Li Yun fell into the beach and was dizzy.
Uncle Li is much better than Li Yun. He focused on the present, thinking about how to roast the chicken first, and then thinking about the rest. Uncle Li also knows less than Li Yun, such as "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", which Uncle Li has never heard.
Yi Xin watched Xue Xiaolian kill chickens curiously, and when she heard Li Yun's sigh, she turned her head to look at him, "What are you thinking?" ”
"Isn't it?" Li Yun was dazed.
"Except for gluttonous stuff, who would stare at the monster to eat? There is only one species in the world, and it is troublesome to catch, and I don't know how to cook it if I catch it. Moreover, most of us don't have to eat, and we don't have a craving. Yi Xin replied.
"Then this is ...... now," Li Yun continued to be dazed.
"It's just handy. I've met them all and killed them, so let's eat them by the way. ”
Xue Xiaolian turned her head and glanced at it, and added, "It's also to destroy the evidence." ”
Li Yun was stunned.
"It would be troublesome for the police to find a dead owl lying in Xiao Shuai's house, right? I don't know if his original breed is a rare breed, and if it is an extinct owl, it will be even more troublesome. Xue Xiaolian turned her head, threw the bird in the pool, washed her hands, and waited for the hot water to boil.
Li Yun had to admit that Xue Xiaolian made a lot of sense.
"How did you find it?" Uncle Li asked curiously.
"I met by chance. She read the information from the police station and went directly to the house rented by Xiao Shuai. Yi Xin replied.
"Aren't there any police there?" Li Yun thought it was incredible.
Judging from the experience accumulated by Li Yun watching film and television dramas, the residence of this kind of criminal suspect should have been searched and monitored.
"He turned into a bird, how do the police know? They couldn't see me and Xiaolian either. Yi Xin shrugged.
This is how the two swaggered into Xiao Shuai's house, killed Xiao Shuai, and brought him back.
There was a gurgling sound coming from the kettle.
Xue Xiaolian picked up the boiled kettle and poured the boiling water directly on the bird's corpse.
There are no special plucking tools in the dormitory, but this is not difficult for the two non-humans.
"Didn't it resist?" Li Yun couldn't help, so he asked curiously next to him, "You guys started fighting, and the police didn't find out?" ”
He and Uncle Li really had too many questions to ask.
Based on the deep impression of Journey to the West, which is replayed every year, both of them made up the kind of war with rich light and shadow effects.
Just look at Xue Xiaolian and Yi Xin, who have been in a good time, they seem to have carried out a one-sided slaughter.
Li Yun thought about the bird's intact appearance, and felt that this should be called an assassination. He didn't see any blood on the body, and he didn't see any mutilations on it.
"Yes. They want to attack us. It's too weak, though. Yi Xin's tone was light, not mocking, but a kind of ignorance.
"Is it weak?" Li Yun was confused.
This mourning bird was responsible for at least 10 or more deaths.
"It's kind of rubbish." Yi Xin plucked a handful of feathers.
"Uh...... But it's not aimed at the boss......" Uncle Li thought of one thing.
Under the hands of Yi Xin and Xue Xiaolian, the two employees were completely defeated, and they actually tried to deal with the boss?
Uncle Li doesn't know if this is the fearlessness of the unknown among the monsters.
"yes. It is precisely because it is a waste that it will run to the boss. Yi said as a matter of course, and only then did he use a mocking tone, "Born with bad luck, I want to rely on external forces to reverse it." He gave up on himself from the beginning. ”
"Can this kind of thing be reversed on your own?" Li Yun was incredulous.
Isn't a mourning bird a bird that brings death? If this kind of nature-like attribute can be changed by one's own efforts, then this world is not supernatural or mysterious, but another ......
Li Yun's heartbeat quickened a little.
A thought crossed his mind.
If it is possible for the mourning bird to become an auspicious one on its own, rather than a symbol of calamity, can the dead person, the soul of a ghost, also be transformed into a living person?
The boundary between life and death should be regarded as an essential difference, right?
Xue Xiaolian suddenly laughed, "You should know about vampires, right?" ”
Li Yun nodded, not understanding why Xue Xiaolian mentioned this.
"In ancient times, vampires were considered evil demons by humans, and humans feared them and wanted to kill them. But over time, they have now become a classic fantasy creature, falling in love with humans, marrying humans, having children, and becoming likable cartoon characters. Xue Xiaolian said eloquently, "If someone told you now that he was a vampire, what would you think?" ”
Li Yun could not answer this question.
He would have been surprised if someone had said that and proved that he was a vampire during his lifetime. There will definitely be small concerns. But if the other party is someone he knows, then how he views the other party has little to do with the other party's race.
Maybe some people will be Ye Gong Haolong, usually obsessed with this kind of fantasy creatures, affectionately calling them wife and husband to outsiders on the Internet, but when they encounter it in reality, they will run away in horror; Maybe some people hate these things from the bottom of their hearts, and they don't watch those works with external characters at all, and they will scold angrily, and they will want to destroy each other when they see real vampires. But there will definitely be people who don't mind these and generously accept these existences.
This kind of thing is no longer a sharp contradiction, at least not the sharp contradiction of the Middle Ages in Europe, where someone is burned if she suspects that she is a witch.
And now......
Now that Li Yun himself is a non-human, a "soul that exists after the death of the body and apart from the corpse" that most countries have, what position does he have to discriminate against other non-humans?
"By the way, in the beginning, vampires could only suck blood for a living, and now they can be omnivorous." Xue Xiaolian said again.
Li Yun was stunned, suddenly realized something, and blurted out, "How did they change?" By the evolution of their own population, or did they change the image of human beings about them? ”
Xue Xiaolian and Yi Xin looked at Li Yun at the same time.
"I ...... Am I asking the wrong question? Li Yun was a little cramped.
The eyes of these two people are really terrifying.
After subconsciously retreating, Li Yun reacted.
His previous question was just a flash of inspiration, and now his thoughts have been sorted out.
Xue Xiaolian's narration made Li Yun have such thoughts.
This question of "chicken or egg first", Yi Xin asked Xue Xiaolian this evening.
"Who knows......" Xue Xiaolian smiled.
It's just that smile that makes Li Yun feel that Xue Xiaolian knows the correct answer.
Yi Xin looked at Xue Xiaolian thoughtfully, pouted, and said, "No matter what it is, it will take a lot of perseverance and a long time to complete." Not many people are interested in doing that on their own initiative. Yi Xin glanced at Li Yun, "Like you humans, most youkai just live one day at a time. Who spends their days thinking about making history? ”
"Just take it seriously and live every day." Xue Xiaolian shook her hand, picked up the kitchen knife, put the sleek bird on the cutting board, and chopped off the bird's head with a knife, "Let's eat roast seriously today." ”
As Xue Xiaolian said, the four of them ate the roast chicken seriously.
It turns out that it makes sense for humans to choose "chicken" as one of their main meats. For thousands of years, no one has studied the artificial breeding of carnivorous owls, which shows that countless ancestors and heroes have seen the same thing.
Li Yun held up the small belly that stood out after eating, and hummed and cleaned up the messy kitchen.
This night, he went to bed very late, not only because he cleaned up the kitchen, but after he returned to the bedroom, he was still thinking about Xue Xiaolian's words over and over again.
He found himself interested in these things.
In addition to mere curiosity, there was a slight commotion.
He wasn't ready to do anything, he just couldn't sleep with excitement.
It wasn't until it was light outside that he dozed off in a daze.
When he woke up, it was already noon, and he was the only one left in the dormitory.
