Chapter 25: The Hundred Demons Parade Street
Jian Lin always thought that Tao Niang was slightly injured, but when Mozun mentioned it, she realized that she was negligent.
She prides herself on liking Tao Niang, but she is not as careful as the Demon Zun, which is really ashamed.
Jian Lin hurriedly let go and asked in surprise, "Is Rin Yuwei so powerful?" It looks like it's just a minor injury. ”
"Rin Yuwei is covered in poison, and the little demon will die if he touches it," the Demon Venerable explained while healing Tao Niang's injuries, "It seems to be a small injury, but it is actually very difficult to heal, but for cultivators, it is just a gesture." ”
Tao Niang's pupils shook, thinking that she had heard something.
Jian Lin was also taken aback, he didn't understand why the Demon Venerable revealed his identity at this time, could it be that he accidentally said that he had leaked his mouth?
Demon Zun's face was as usual, his fingertips pressed the red marks on Tao Niang's neck, and I don't know what method was used to tear out the red marks, and the skin returned to white and smooth.
After the treatment, the Demon Venerable sat back next to the small case, faced the shocked eyes of the two girls, and said indifferently, "Don't be so surprised, this is not a shocking secret." ”
Jian Lin calmed down first, and said disapprovingly, "Young master, you scared Tao Niang, don't say it so coldly, it's better to lay the groundwork." ”
"You're scared?" Demon Venerable turned to ask Tao Niang.
Tao Niang hurriedly waved her hand to deny it, controlled her expression, covered her neck and said, "It's okay, thank you Mr. for coming to the rescue." ”
"You're welcome, it's over, I'm going to say goodbye." The Demon Venerable got up leisurely and walked to the window as usual.
"Young master, wait a minute...... Jian Lin chased after him, pulled him close to the window, and asked in a low voice, "You are gone, but you are gone, I still have to get along with Tao Niang, please give me a little hint, why do you want to tell Tao Niang that we are human." ”
"An attempt," the Demon Venerable replied softly, "It's all said, I've gained a lot of knowledge in the demon world these days, and the relationship between demons and demons is secretly connected, I want to know if it's okay to change between humans and demons, don't you like Peach Niang, tell her a little more secrets, and the mysterious power will lock you together." ”
Jian Lin was stunned when she heard this, and wanted to ask a few more questions, but she didn't know that while she was in a trance, the Demon Venerable raised her legs and jumped and disappeared into the night.
"Huh?" Jian Lin didn't catch him, and stomped his feet in anger, "Damn! Gone again! ”
The Demon Venerable can go, where can she go? can only come back and face Tao Niang.
I don't know what Tao Niang thinks of mortals, and I don't know what Tao Niang thinks about her hiding her identity and lying......
Jian Lin played with the ends of her hair awkwardly, walked back and sat down in front of the small case, and said another secret directly, "Tao Niang, there is something you don't know, I saved Hongqu that night, and she is now leaving with our young master, please rest assured." ”
Tao Niang's pupils shook again, she always thought that Hongqu was escaping with secret techniques, but she never expected it to be related to Jian Lin.
"Miss Ngapoi," the corners of Tao Niang's mouth twitched, and she said helplessly, "You can not tell me." ”
Jian Lin couldn't help but smile, thinking of Tao Niang's performance before, it was indeed in line with what the Demon Venerable said, between demons and demons, keep a polite distance, have a cold relationship, and pay attention to privacy.
"Tao Niang, do you have any wine? Let's have two drinks together. Jian Lin was in high spirits tonight and wanted to chat more with Tao Niang.
Jian Lin was very happy that night, although Tao Niang didn't talk much, she didn't drink with Jian Lin.
After that night, Jian Lin did feel a magical power, which quickly shortened the distance between her and Tao Niang.
In the blink of an eye, the demon city was already brightly lit, and it was even more brilliant, Jian Lin looked at the root of his tooth and always felt that there would be a fire, and this burn would be lively.
In the afternoon of that day, Izumo Pavilion was rarely lively, whether it was a big demon or a small demon, the top card or a miscellaneous, everyone came out to hang lanterns together, decorate Izumo Pavilion, and wait for the night to fall with joy.
Jian Lin only knew at this time that Izumo Pavilion was closed today, and most of the monsters would go out to participate in the Hundred Demon Parade at night.
Jian Lin asked in surprise, "Tao Niang, what about you?" To go at night? ”
"I'm not going," Tao Niang rolled up her sleeves and walked upstairs with an elegant posture, "I don't like to be too crowded, Miss Apoi, you have to be careful, you may not know, on the day of the hundred demons parade in the street, you can fight on the street, and many monsters will lose their lives every year, so don't be affected." ”
As soon as Tao Niang mentioned it, Jian Lin remembered that there seemed to be such a statement.
In the demon city, it is not allowed to fight casually, if there is a monster who wants to fight to seize the Jindan Jingxiu, it is necessary to officially place a battle post, go to the martial arts hall, and have a competition in front of the witness.
Moreover, the challenged party can reject the challenger, and only if both parties agree, can they do it.
And the monsters can also agree on the criteria for winning or losing, and many monsters want to learn from each other, and don't want to fight to determine life and death.
All in all, inside the demon city, it is not as easy as it is outside the city to capture the other party's golden pill.
However, all these regulations will be invalidated on the day of the Midyear Festival, and happy and happy days need to be helped by seeing blood.
Jian Lin understood and expressed her support, anyway, she went out with the Demon Venerable tonight, and the monsters love to fight, and it has nothing to do with her.
In the expectation of the demons, the night finally fell, everyone cheered to light the lanterns, Jian Lin only felt that there was a flower in front of him, as if he had come to the day, there was one thing to say, which was a bit too bright.
Jian Lin blocked the bright light with her hand, found a dark corner to sit in, and ate pine nuts while waiting for the Demon Venerable to come to her.
While waiting, she looked vigilantly to the left and right from time to time, for fear that the Demon Venerable would suddenly appear and scare her.
Unexpectedly, this time, he actually walked in from the gate in an orderly manner.
I saw that he was dressed in loose and comfortable regular clothes, with sleeves and skirts fluttering between walks, his demeanor was uninhibited, carrying a red lantern in his hand, stepping on the brilliance of the ground, and the little demons couldn't help but look sideways, attracted by his style and appearance.
Jian Lin was also stunned, this man is so handsome, it really costs his life when he is normal.
Demon Venerable stood in front of her, reached out and directly snatched the pine nut kernel from Jian Lin's hand, and threw it into his mouth.
My day, Jian Lin almost exploded, she had been peeling it for a long time, just to enjoy the refreshing feeling of eating a handful at once, she was snatched away by the Demon Venerable!
Jian Lin looked at the empty palm, looking at the Demon Venerable with an expressionless face, and the good feeling that he had just been attracted by his appearance was gone.
You said that this matter is not a matter, he is really angry, but you said that you want to quarrel over this matter, it is really not worth it, it is really suffocating!
Jian Lin swallowed this evil breath, stood up and kept smiling, and said to the Demon Venerable, "Young Master, if you like it, I will peel it for you every day in the future." ”
"No, I don't like to eat." Demon Venerable said lightly.
Jian Lin was furious, "Then you...... What do you do to rob me......"
"Hello to you," a playful smile flashed in the Demon Venerable's eyes, and he raised his hand to give her the red lantern, "I bought it for you, let's go." ”
Jian Lin took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, took the lantern, and strode forward.
Walking to the street, infected by the joyful atmosphere, Jian Lin's anger gradually dissipated, and suddenly found that the red lantern was embroidered with begonias, which was the style she liked.
Okay, whether the Demon Venerable is intentional or unintentional, she understands it.
Stand still, turn around, and wait for the Demon Venerable to slowly walk over, and the two of them blend into the street side by side.
"Young master, I can't see it, you're still a person who likes to join in the fun, I thought you would hate this kind of activity, it's boring and crowded." Jian Lin whispered to her.
"I really don't like it," the Demon Venerable replied in a low voice, "I came out tonight, in fact, I secretly got the news that the High Priest will appear, and I want to meet him." ”
Jian Lin immediately cheered up, "What? Young master, you have a plan, why didn't you tell me in advance? ”
"What's the difference, don't you know now?" Demon Venerable stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Jian Lin's shoulders and protect her as she walked through the crowded demon group, "And there is no plan, the high priest is going out alone in private, maybe he won't be able to meet it." ”
"What kind of youkai is the High Priest?" Jian Lin asked actively, wanting to contribute to the search for the high priest.
"This question is very interesting," Demon Venerable lowered his head next to Jian Lin's ear and whispered, "I heard that the high priest is not a demon, but a human. ”
Jian Lin's eyes widened, incredulous, "He, he's human, why did he get involved?" ”
"That's only he knows," Demon Venerable continued to say what he knew, "The high priest never shows his true face, he has always worn a mask on his face, he is a very trusted and mysterious figure of the Demon Emperor, the old monsters of the white eyebrows have always wanted to kill him, and he has a good relationship with him by slashing three knives, and it is he who divined the existence of the Dragon Pill, he is a key person." ”
Jian Lin nodded again and again, sketching the image of a mysterious big man, and naturally had his own conjectures, "Young Master, I feel that the monsters have straight brains, and they are not very good at conspiracy and trickery, you said that the monsters colluded with the Guanlan Sect, is it the high priest plotting behind the scenes?" ”
"It's very likely," the Demon Venerable agreed, "after all, it's still people fighting people who are the most interesting." ”
The Demon Venerable's tone was relaxed, but Jian Lin was worried, there was originally a bunch of messy things, and there was another high priest, and he was also a high priest who was good at planning and calculating.
While speaking, the two came to the central square of the demon city, Jian Lin was very aware of safety, afraid of a stampede, and strongly asked the demon venerable to take her to the outermost edge.
was halfway against the demon group, when suddenly there was an explosion in the sky, as if fireworks were scattered, I don't know who shouted, "It's the high priest!" It's time to send blessings to everyone! ”
The youkai cheered and immediately squeezed forward, and on the other side, the two youkai didn't know what was going on, and suddenly fought.
Screaming, chaotic, shouting, heckling, the familiar yokai are back!
In the chaos, there was another explosion, and the fireworks that were bigger than just now fell, Jian Lin couldn't avoid it, and was hit by the sparks, and instantly felt a burning pain.
"Ahh It hurts! Jian Lin shouted.
Suddenly, Demon Venerable's eyes sharpened, and he directly picked up Jian Lin, and jumped on the roof and fled quickly between a few ups and downs.
Before Jian Lin could figure out what was going on, Demon Venerable suddenly let go and threw her out.
A few blackbirds caught her behind her, Jian Lin looked at the direction where the Demon Venerable left, only to see that he didn't turn his head back, and disappeared directly into a black dot!
Dog man! Jian Lin cursed, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, her tail was missing......
Demon Venerable's spell is invalid.
