04 Black Pig Longyi
The people on the street seemed to be different from when she first came here, in addition to the despair and helplessness brought about by the heavy taxes, there was also a little more fear and anxiety, and it was only after Jielan saw the notice posted at the 'Jiyao Pavilion' that she understood what was going on. Jielan wrapped her unusually eye-catching blue hair and face with a black turban, revealing only a pair of eyes, but she knew that her light blue pupils would still attract attention, so she always lowered her head and didn't dare to look at people.
When he arrived at the gate of the city hall, Jielan began to have a headache again, through the people here, they must have a household card to be released, the so-called household card is a household registration card issued by the local officials, with which you can prove your identity as a city citizen.
And for a person like Jielan, who has no origin, she should be arrested before she walks through the door!
What's worse is that the portraits of the wanted Jielan and others are posted on the walls next to the two gates, and Jielan has just walked here, and she is ready to leave and find a way to sneak in. But as soon as he took a step or two, he heard an officer and soldier shouting: "Hey, what is that one over there?" Jielan heard his footsteps walking towards her.
If you run away, you will definitely be chased and killed by a large number of officers and soldiers, and if you stay here, your identity will also be exposed, what should I do, what should I do? A little bead of sweat appeared on Jielan's forehead, flowing down her eyes.
The officer's hand was already on Jielan's shoulder, "Hey, turn around, let me see, don't be a demon, show me your household card." ”
Jielan stopped her trembling, and secretly carried spiritual power in her hands, although she was reluctant to use spiritual power on an ordinary human who was not at fault, but now it was a last resort.
"Hey, did you hear me, I'm not welcome to do it again."
Jielan turned around and looked at the officer.
The officers and soldiers were shocked by Shangjie's blue and blue eyes, their eyes opened wide, and their whole bodies trembled, "You... Demon..."
Before the officer and soldier could shout, a black shadow suddenly flashed and shoved a square sign made of wood into the officer's hand, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this is my owner, she didn't do anything to offend you!" ”
This time, Jielan was surprised and shocked.
The man in front of him, no, he was not a person, but an animal, a black and slightly chubby pig, his black eyes shone with dazzling light, two big ears pulled together on both sides, although not like a real pig, but it almost covered his eyes, he stood on his hind legs, his two front legs as hands, although his hands and feet were like five fingers like humans, but still had thick armor, and a few black whiskers on his long mouth trembled gently as he spoke and smiled, He looks like a cute and innocent child, and his voice is indeed childish.
He's the one who heals himself in his sleep? Is it the old man in the blacksmith shop? Was he worried about his own safety, so he came along?
Jielan has too many questions.
"Are you a half-demon who lives in the North City?"
The black pig scratched his proboscis with his hand, "Yes, I came with my host?" ”
"Well, even so, I still have to check it, maybe it's a demon modification." The officer and soldier reached out and tore off Jielan's face scarf.
The black pig hurriedly shook his head and said in horror: "I can't help it, I can't help it, my owner has leprosy, this disease is very contagious, and I can't see it well after finding many doctors, so I went to the city hall to find a famous doctor to take a look." ”
"Leprosy?" The hands of the officers and soldiers immediately retracted, and they took two steps back in fear, "Okay, you guys go quickly, go quickly, don't spread the disease here." ”
The black pig stretched out his little hand and grabbed Jielan, then saluted the officer and soldier, and walked towards the city.
Jielan followed his steps, looking at his back, as if in a dream, although she had never understood where he came from, but she could feel his tenderness for herself.
.........................
"You're very clever!" Jielan, who had blended into the city, boasted to the black pig walking next to her.
"Where, how can I be, I was too scared at that time, I was afraid that your identity would be discovered?" The black pig was clearly really worried, and his beard kept shaking.
"Anyway, thank you, senior!" Jielan always thought that he was the old man of the blacksmith shop, so she couldn't help blurting out.
When the black pig heard this, he was stunned, both puzzled and frightened, he hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, you can't call me an old-timer, that will never work, I will be punished by God." ”
When Jielan thought that the first time she called the old blacksmith like this, he was so unwilling, and he didn't pay attention to the black pig's excuse, so he joked: "Then I don't call you an old-timer, just call you an old man, so you can always listen to it comfortably." ”
The black pig seemed to look even more depressed, and he lowered his head, "Old, old man? I don't look very good-looking, but I'm only a teenager, how can I become an old man? Black Pig seemed to be very sad that Jielan called her that.
"Teenagers?" Jielan looked a little confused, but she thought that the old man blacksmith had a strange temperament, so let him go if he said so, why bother with him. "And what shall I call you?"
"My name is Long Yi, a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing, a radiant Yi." He looked unusually happy when he said his name.
"Oh? You've got a good name. "It turns out that the old blacksmith is called this name, which is completely different from his eccentric and greedy nature." So, you saved me when I was injured that time, right? ”
"Well, fortunately I found you in time, if you are one step late, if something happens to you, it will be terrible."
"Why didn't you look like this after you saved me?"
The black pig didn't seem to understand her words at all, because he hadn't shown up since he saved her, but he still replied: "I, I'm afraid that you will be afraid when you see me like this, so I don't dare to see you, but I've been staying not far from you." ”
Jielan smiled: "Scared? I prefer your appearance, you become an old man..."Jielan suddenly remembered that he didn't like to call him an old man, and hurriedly changed her words: "I'm sorry, I mean, isn't it more convenient for you to become human." ”
The black pig seemed to be frustrated and embarrassed again, "Isn't I ugly like this, I know, I'm afraid that you will be afraid of me when you see me like this, so I haven't dared to come to see you!" He seemed to be very ashamed of his appearance, especially when facing Jielan, he always lowered his head, not wanting Jielan to see that he looked a little ugly.
"How so?" Jielan seems to be more and more ignorant of the shy half-demon in front of her, and she is becoming more and more ignorant of her own thoughts, she used to hate demons so much, even the half-demon himself will despise it, but now in the face of Long Yi, Jielan not only did not hate it, but felt that he was by her side, and felt so reassuring, as if she had finally found an island that could be docked on the lonely and hopeless sea. It's because of the criminals, because he said, Don't despise demons, yes! Even if they are not humans, they are not gods, they have the right to live.
