Q: What is a demon?

Answer: Those who harm others are demons, which is different from man-made demons.

A stupid bird stands on a high hill, looking down at the scenery at its feet, there is a large boundless dense forest, lush like a green ocean, whenever the wind passes through the dense forest, the leaves will be blown rustling, at this time I saw a flying snake quickly walking through the trees, the green skin provides a good protective color for it, whether it is to raid the prey or avoid the predators are very useful. But the dumb-headed bird was not stupid at all, and its round eyes only caught the trace of its prey in an instant, so it swooped down from the high post with its wings flapped, and plunged directly into the forest, and the flying snake also noticed the figure of the natural enemy, so it accelerated and fled into the distance, like an arrow off the string. And the tracker behind him also increased the amplitude of the wings, each flap of the wings will make its displacement more than seventeen or eighteen zhang, so the flying snake and the bird began to chase in the forest, the vast forest sea is like a natural labyrinth, the two of them traveled a hundred miles in the chase, until they reached the border of the dense forest, we can gradually hear the sound of people talking, when the picture is close enough, we also seem to be able to see some human-like creatures standing there, but we can't be sure if it is a human or not, And we couldn't hear or understand what they were saying, and just as we tried to tighten the distance, they suddenly disappeared again, and we were greeted by an untimely and dilapidated desert in which there were few poor human dwellings and more ruins of unknown causes.

Near dusk, an old man about seventy years old is sitting on the ground, polishing stones with a hammer and iron file in his hand to repair the courtyard wall of his house, and there are people similar to villagers not far away who are busy with something, but there are too few people here, as if this is a wasteland that has just been known (originally an uninhabited wasteland, but now it is being cleared for people, and it may become suitable land for people to settle in the future). Judging from the topography here, if it is really a wasteland, it is really very good, the dense forest can be cut down wood at will to build houses, not far away there is a wide river, which can be drunk by people, and in the distance, it is a wilderness, although it is now overgrown with weeds, but it definitely has the qualification to become fertile land. It can be said that this is a very inhabitable place, but why has no one come to open up the land until now? The situation may not be the same as we think, because the ruins of this place are enough to prove that there were once people living here, and there should be quite a few of them.

Just as the old man was still polishing the stone, a child's voice suddenly came from not far away.

Xiao Lingzi: "Grandpa, grandpa, where are you?" ”

A little girl who was about eight or nine years old suddenly ran over, but obviously the little girl was not very familiar with the environment here, so she had been looking around there, at this time the old man heard the familiar voice, so he put down the tools in his hand, looking for the source of the sound, not far away there was an eight or nine-year-old girl, looking a little dull, a rough head rope tied with a single pigtail, wearing a gray and white coarse cloth long-sleeved shirt, a pair of same gray-white coarse cloth trousers, this is a typical Cangluo country country country wear, anyway, the child is still young, It didn't matter what they were wearing, even if it was the old clothes that the neighbor's boys wore when they were young, even if they were patched now, it didn't affect them in the slightest to enjoy the joy that children of this age should have, and the little girl wore a pair of soft mud straw sandals under her feet. Although the old man was a little old, fortunately, he was not deaf and blind, and after a little look, he recognized that the person who came was not someone else, but his own granddaughter.

Old man: "Mud baby (Xiao Lingzi's nickname), here, grandpa here." ”

Xiao Lingzi: "Grandpa, grandpa." ”

Xiao Lingzi also heard the grandfather's voice, but because he couldn't find the direction for a while, he was stunned and scratched his head, and after the old man waved hard there, Xiao Lingzi rushed over, and the old man also squatted down and held Xiao Lingzi in his arms, and the parents who followed the child also came over.

Ling's father: "Dad, I found you, the place where you live is really hard to find." ”

Old man: "You live so far away, why do you think you came here?" ”

Ling's mother: "Dad, Ling's father and I can't rest assured of you after three years, so I took Lingzi to come and see you"

Xiao Lingzi: "Grandpa, why do you want to live so far away alone, how good it is to live with your father and mother"

Old man: "Mud baby, grandpa is old, and he always wants to return to his roots." ”

Xiao Lingzi: "What do you mean by falling leaves returning to their roots?" ”

Grandpa: "Haha, the fallen leaves return to the roots, that is to say, for example, the sun, no matter how high it rises, it will eventually return to the sea, which is the return of the fallen leaves to the roots."

In this way, a family of four, returned to the old grandfather's renovated earthen house, Ling's father and Ling's mother knew that this was far from the market, and it was difficult to buy things, so on the way to the road, they had already bought some rice, flour, grain, oil and meat dishes in advance, so Ling's mother began to work in the kitchen, and the old grandfather and Ling's father chatted about the recent situation, this time has not seen each other for more than three years, three years ago the old grandfather insisted on coming back here, just because the old man was born and raised here, and now although this is already like a person, the light and shadow of the past have disappeared, But homesickness still made the old man return here, in the words of the old man, "This is my home, and I will be buried here when I die." ”。 As a son, Ling's father really can't resist the old grandfather, so he has to let him come back here, and Ling's father and his family still live in a small fishing village thousands of miles away, and soon dinner will be ready, the family sits around the dining table again after three years, chatting while eating is also happy, Xiao Lingzi is a child after all, for this strange environment, some curiosity and some fear, even if you are eating here, you can't help but look out the window, the night in early spring is still a little cool, and you can even hear the call of autumn insects, At this time, Xiao Lingzi really wanted to run out to play, but there were few people here, and there were no children of the same age, and Ling's mother told Xiao Lingzi on the side, "This place is very remote, don't go far, be careful of being taken away by wild wolves." This kind of scaring children is very effective for Xiao Lingzi, so she has to eat obediently. After dinner, Ling's father immediately felt sleepy, and the day was tired, so he planned to rest early, and Ling's mother was also a little tired, so the couple said to their father, and then went back to the side room to rest, and the grandparents were left in the main room. This is really old and young, it is difficult to have any topics to discuss, so the grandparents and grandchildren can only come to the courtyard to sit on the chair in a daze, seven o'clock in the afternoon has passed, the sky is gray color, there is no starlight, a crescent moon hanging in the sky is not much light, and when the breeze blows through the two, they can feel a trace of coolness, suddenly Xiao Lingzi spoke.

Xiao Lingzi: "Grandpa, tell me a story." ”

Old man: "Haha, what story do you want to hear?" ”

Xiao Lingzi: "I don't know ...... either"

Old man: "Then grandpa will tell you a story about the tortoise and hare race." ”

Xiao Lingzi: "I don't want to listen to the tortoise and rabbit race." ”

Old man: "Don't listen to the tortoise and hare race...... And what about the story of the wolf? ”

Xiao Lingzi: "I don't want to listen to the wolf!" ”

Old man: "But there are very few stories about grandpa, what should I do?" ”

Xiao Lingzi: "Grandpa, I have something I want to ask you. ”

Old man: "Okay, you can ask." ”

Xiao Lingzi: "Grandpa, do you say that there are really monsters in this world?" ”

Old man: "Huh? Mud baby, why do you suddenly ask this? ”

Xiao Lingzi: "I heard Daddy say that Grandpa fought monsters when he was young!" ”

Old man: "Don't listen to your father's nonsense, how can grandpa have the ability to fight monsters." ”

Xiao Lingzi: "Is that a lie to Daddy?" ”

Old man: "It's not a lie, it's your father's mistake, it's not your grandfather who fights monsters, it's your father's grandfather who fights monsters, that is, grandfather's father." ”

Xiao Lingzi: "Huh! Are there really youkai? ”

Grandpa: "Yes. ”

Xiao Lingzi: "Then why haven't I seen it?" ”

Old man: "There aren't many monsters now, so naturally it's not easy to see." ”

Xiao Lingzi: "Grandpa, have you ever seen a monster?" ”

Old man: "Of course I did." ”

Reiko: "Really? When? ”

Old man: "When my grandfather was a child, I often saw youkai. ”

Reiko: "Do you often see monsters? So, don't youkai eat people? ”

Old man: "They don't all eat people, but they will hurt people!" ”

As soon as Xiao Lingzi heard this, she immediately became interested and hurriedly asked the old man everything about the monsters. When the old man saw his granddaughter so curious, he began to tell what he saw when he was a child.

The picture flashed, and the time returned to fifty-five years ago, that is, when the old grandfather was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child.

At that time, the old grandfather was still a cattle herding baby (referred to as Niu Wa), at that time Niu Wa still lived with his parents in Xiawa Village, which is now where the old grandfather lives, Xiawa Village is a small village with a population of only 500 households, the adults in the village are mainly engaged in farming and logging, and eight or nine years old children can already help the family to herd cattle and sheep, unless it is a child with a better family background, will go to the village school to read and write, and Niu Wa because of the poor family background, so until the age of fifteen or sixteen are still helping the family to herd cattle, But at that time, there were still most children who didn't study, so everyone didn't think there was anything wrong, and the same age friends who herded cattle and sheep for the family could take this opportunity to play together, and it was also a very cheerful time, and it was precisely because of such a free childhood that the bullfrog was able to meet the children of the same age of the demon clan.

That's right! Just less than two kilometers away from Xiawa Village, there is a 100-meter-high hill, because of its moderate slope and the mountain is relatively broad, so the house is built along the slope, but the house is not the same as ours, although the house is similar to us in height, but the roof is round and flat-roofed, there are more or less earthen jars on it, and at the same time, each roof will be planted with a three-foot-high blue flag, and the flag is embroidered with words that we can't read. There are about one hundred and ten such houses, and there are people from the demon clan living there, since Niu Wa has a memory, he knows that the people of the demon clan live there, and he used to ask his parents because of curiosity, "When did those demon clans start to be neighbors with us." But the answer was, "They don't know." Maybe we've been neighbors with the demon clan for hundreds of years.,It's just because of the language barrier.,There's almost no contact between the two sides.,It's as if they both treat each other as wild animals that can't communicate.,About the appearance of the demon people.,It's recorded in the book.。

The body shape of the demon people is similar to that of people, basically more than five feet tall, the same is a head, two shoulders and all four limbs, the skin of the demon people is slightly gray, and then the appearance is easier to identify compared with people, the face and demeanor of the demon clan are like foxes, or like raccoons, or like wolves, the eyes are yellow-brown and cracked like broken porcelain, they have no ears, but they have short and blunt horns on both sides of the top of their heads, but when I hear people outside, this horn may be their ears, and the men of the demon clan do not tie their hair in a bun, They were all tied with iron hoops in their tails, and their horns were hidden in their hair, and from a distance they were ordinary people without ears.

Here are some rumors waiting to be confirmed.

I heard that they have much more agility than ordinary people, and their strength is three or five times stronger than that of ordinary people, and they are very long-lived, it is said that the life expectancy of demon people is more than 100 years old, in addition, I have heard that they can see at night, and their bodies have an automatic repair ability that ordinary people cannot match, even if they are severely cut or stabbed by a sharp weapon and fall into a state of blood loss, their wounds will quickly stop blood loss and heal, and they do not eat grain and meat, only eat wild fruits and water to survive.

I remember that at that time, Niu Wa was grazing cattle in the mountains.

Niu Wa walked along the mountain road on the top of the mountain, the Niu followed behind the same leisurely walk, suddenly Niu Wa found that there were three or five sheep eating grass in the distance, Niu Wa happily ran over, because the sheep doll there is one of his little friends of the sheep baby, the sheep baby is a female doll, the birth is quite cute, mainly kind-hearted, knowing that Niu Wa is greedy often steal some cakes from home to Niu Wa, and the two people are of the same age, but the people of that era are relatively late, Even though the cow baby and the sheep baby are actually a pair that have a good impression of each other, the two children never noticed that they were taking advantage of the opportunity to graze at that time, and they always liked to laugh and play together.

Niu Wa: "Sheep baby, did you bring me anything delicious today?" ”

Sheep baby: "Do you want a dirt cake here?" ”

As he spoke, he took out an earthy yellow cake the size of an adult's palm from his coat pocket.

Niu Wa: "Yes." ”

Sheep baby: "Here you go." ”

As he spoke, he handed it to Niu Wa.

Niu Wa took the soil cake, glanced at the sheep baby, and broke the cake in his hand into two halves, half of it was left in his hand, and half of it was handed to the sheep baby, and the two children each took half of the soil cake and sat on the ground and ate it happily, when the two people were eating the soil cake, Niu Wa heard the cry of the cow, and the sound had a hostility, Niu Wa hurriedly got up to check the situation, but did not want to be less than fifty meters away from himself There was a child who was about the same height as himself, Niu Wa walked over curiously, and the sheep baby also followed, Ten meters away, Niu Wa stopped, the child opposite is not a human but a demon clan, this is the first time Niu Wa has grown so big to see the appearance of the demon clan so clearly, I saw that the child of the demon clan is a fox face, the outline of the face may be a male doll, he is wearing a turquoise top and turquoise knee shorts, there are no patches on the clothes, it looks very new and good-looking, Niu Wa looked at his clothes again, there have been many patches, Niu Wa suddenly blushed and laughed embarrassedly, And the demon child on the opposite side saw Niu Wa laughing, and he also laughed, this is probably the first time in the lives of the two of them to see someone different from themselves. The sheep baby stood behind the cow baby with some restraint, one hand grabbed the corner of the cow baby's clothes, only showing half of the face to look at the other side, although the demon clan and our language is not comprehensible, but the cow baby still thought of using the game to communicate feelings, the cow baby used the small sandbag he carried with him and the other party played the game of throwing the sandbag, in that afternoon the three children giggled while playing, but they had a lot of fun, and even threw the sandbag tired, just sat together while talking and gestured with their hands to try to let the other party understand the content of their words, Before dark, the three children reluctantly separated, and before leaving, Niu Wa and the demon child also changed the clothes they were wearing to each other, and they all jumped and jumped happily for getting different styles of clothes. That night, the kind eyes of the monster child were forever engraved in Niu Wa's heart, Niu Wa was very happy to meet the demon child, not only because he could get new clothes, but more importantly, he had a mysterious yearning in his heart.

At this time, the old man picked up the water bowl next to him and took a sip of boiled water.

Xiao Lingzi: "Grandpa, you are so amazing, you have become friends with the children of the demon clan!" ”

Grandpa: "Haha, we weren't friends at the time, we became friends later!" ”

Xiao Lingzi: "Later? ”

Old man: "Well, yes, later, that demon kid saved my life!" ”

Reiko: "Huh? What's going on here? ”

The old man put down the water bowl in his hand, and the memories once again dragged the old man back to that era.

I remember that after that day, Niu Wa often waited for the arrival of the demon children in the place where the demon children met, although the language barrier could not communicate, but the two children were still happy to play together. And Niu Wa didn't expect that this fateful encounter would allow both of them to escape a catastrophe.

I remember one morning Niu Wa and Yang Wa grazing on the top of the mountain, two people chatting while walking, suddenly three or four people ran on the opposite side, Niu Wa took a closer look, are sixteen or seventeen-year-old male babies, headed by the famous landlord's stupid son, because he eats well and looks very strong, he is wearing a muslin gown, at a glance is the rich man, he is followed by three followers, wearing ordinary coarse cloth clothes, Niu Wa knows that this guy loves to find trouble, so he pulled the sheep baby to stand on the side of the dirt road, let out the aisle, and wait for them to pass, Who would have thought that this landlord's son, when passing by them, saw that the clothes worn by the cow baby were no worse than his own and the well-behaved sheep baby next to him, and suddenly an evil thought came out, and the landlord's son and his party suddenly stopped.

Landlord's son: "What are you doing?" ”

Niu Wa: "Herding cattle." ”

Landlord's son: "Who told you to herd cattle?" ”

Niu Wa: "My father." ”

The landlord's son: "Did your father tell you that you can't graze cattle here?" ”

Niu Wa: "I didn't say it. ”

The landlord's son: "Hehe, then you still dare to herd cattle here?" ”

Niu Wa: "I've always been herding cattle here." ”

Landlord's son: "What? Hello big bold! Do you know whose territory this is? ”

Niu Wa: "I don't know. ”

Landlord's son: "Hmph! Then let me tell you, this is my family's territory, and you dare to herd cattle on my family's territory and eat the grass that grows on my family's land, what do you say?"

Niu Wa: "Why do you say this is your family's territory!" ”

The landlord's son: "Why do you dare to ask me!" I'm telling you, this mountain is all mine! ”

Niu Wa: "You talk nonsense, I don't believe it." ”

The landlord's son couldn't frighten the other party, and hurriedly thought of a bad idea.

The landlord's son: "If you don't believe me, go home and ask." ”

Niu Wa: "Okay, then I'll go home and ask." ”

Niu Wa, who didn't know the situation, thought about going home and asked, so he took the hand of the sheep baby, and wanted to drive the cattle and sheep back, but who knew that the landlord's son was in front of the Niu baby.

The landlord's son: "You can go, but she and the cattle and sheep must stay!" ”

Niu Wa: "Why? ”

The landlord's son: "Dare to ask me why?" What if you run away? My grass is not all eaten by you in vain."

Niu Wa turned her head to look at the sheep baby behind her, and saw a frightened look on her face, as if she was afraid of these strange boys, Niu Wa knew that she couldn't leave her alone.

Niu Wa: "No! I'm going to take my friends and my cattle and sheep. ”

The landlord's son: "You are so daring, you dare not listen to me!" Look guys. ”

Saying that, a punch was thrown out and hit directly in the face of Niu Wa, and the thin Niu Wa was knocked to the ground at once, and the sheep baby hurriedly went over to help Niu Wa, and stared at the landlord's son who was beating in front of him and roared.

Sheep baby: "Why are you beating people!" ”

The landlord's son: "Hehe, just because my family has money, I can beat whoever I want, if you don't want him to be beaten, you have to play with me, otherwise I want him to look good today." ”

Although the sheep baby is also fourteen years old, she does not know etiquette if she does not study, and the free-range raising method of the elders in the family makes the sheep baby not understand that she should avoid men at this age. He didn't know what the danger was from men, and the stupid son of the landlord's family, although he didn't read well in the school, read some messy picture books (a kind of book with large pictures on a single page and words written below the pictures) read very seriously. In addition, he was in the spring period, and he was exposed to some bad things at home, and the landlord's son at this time had already learned to be like a ruffian.

Yang Wa thought that Niu Wa's house was not far away anyway, so she asked Niu Wa to go back and ask, it was nothing to wait for him here, and Niu Wa didn't understand what kind of danger an ignorant girl would face if she stayed in a group of bad boys, but seeing the evil smile on the face of the landlord's son, Niu Wa instinctively felt that she couldn't do this.

Niu Wa: "Yang Wa, don't listen to him, I won't leave you here alone if I say anything today"

The landlord's son: "I see you looking for a fight!" ”

Saying that the landlord's son rushed over again, looking at the chest of the cow baby who fell to the ground, it was a kick, and the cow baby endured the pain, hugged the landlord's son's feet, and dragged it violently by rolling to the side, the landlord's son immediately lost his balance and fell directly to the ground, the cow baby took the opportunity to get up and ride directly on the landlord's son, waved two small fists and began to smash the landlord's son's face, the landlord's son cried and shouted "It hurts me" and struggled, and the cow baby couldn't control the strong landlord's son because of his thin body, One of the two people accidentally rolled down the hillside during the tearing, and the landlord's son fell directly on the stone and fainted. The cow baby accidentally fell into the river, the sheep baby saw this scene and cried in fright, and hurriedly rushed down to save the cow baby, and the three roots of the stupid son of the landlord's family, as soon as they saw this situation, thought that both of them were dead, so they hurriedly ran to the village for help.

And the sheep baby ran down the process of the cow baby has been washed out of the river far away, the sheep baby desperately chased behind, but the same thin and weak she couldn't catch up with the unconscious cow baby, watching the cow baby was taken away by the river, the sheep baby remembered the demon child at this time, so he tried to run to the place where they often play together, when he came here, the sheep baby began to shout loudly for help.

Sheep baby: "Little monster! Little monster! Where are you, my Niu Wa brother fell into the river, please help me save him. ”

The sheep baby didn't see the figure of the demon child standing there crying, but the fate of people is so wonderful, it just so happened that the demon child was bored, came here early, and waited for the cow baby to come to play with him, and then saw a person running to the sheep baby, although the language could not be understood, but her crying expression, or let the demon child realize that something was wrong! In this way, the sheep baby ran to the river with the demon child, pointed to the river and cried.

Yang Wa: "Brother Niu Wa, he fell into the river, I saw him washed away by the river, but I couldn't catch up with him." ”

The sheep baby has not finished speaking, only to see that the demon child has run up, running quickly along the river, the speed is only two or three times faster than the adults in the village, the horns on the top of the head of the demon child in the running, can rotate freely left and right, although I don't know what the use of this action is, but it must be very powerful, the running speed of the demon child is really like a beast, at a young age, his stride is more than five feet, and the cadence is very fast, The horsetail hair that is tied tightly when running is blown up by the wind formed during the run, and the physical strength of the demon child is really good, running along the river for a quarter of an hour, the running speed is not much different from the beginning, what is even more amazing is that the demon child seems to be able to track the prey like a beast, and soon caught up with the cow baby who struggled in the river, at this time the cow baby has woken up from the coma, but because the river is turbulent, the water nature of the cow baby is average, so although the cow baby tries hard to swim to the shore, but it can't do it at all, can only struggle in the river not to sink, and when the cow baby saw the familiar figure chasing from the shore, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw, desperately waving his arms to attract the attention of the other party, and soon the demon child ran in front of the cow baby, but did not stop, but continued to run forward, until the cow baby was thrown behind him nearly two hundred meters away, then jumped into the river and swam towards the middle of the river, where the demon child had calculated that the cow baby would be rushed over, And the demon child stopped in the river like this, even if the river is turbulent, it can't be washed away, and sure enough, after a while, the cow baby was washed over, when the cow baby saw the demon child not far away, not to mention how happy he was, the final result was as the demon child calculated, the cow baby was washed directly in front of him by the river, and the demon child grabbed the cow baby, and then effortlessly brought him back to the shore, the two looked at each other and smiled, At this time, the cow baby has been close to prostration because of the desperate struggle in the water just now, and the demon child also consumed a lot of physical strength because of the desire to save friends, so the two of them rested on the shore for a while, and then began to walk back, until they saw a lot of people coming this way, the demon child was still wary of others, so he patted the cow baby's shoulder, and then ran away, and soon his figure disappeared into the woods, and the cow baby was taken back to the village by everyone, as for the stupid son of the landlord's family, how to deal with it, I won't mention this, anyway, since then, Niu Wa has become real friends with the demon children.

If the story ends here, it will also be a comedy of humans and demons in the world, how can God not fulfill people's wishes, but that happened later......
