"Luluo and Xiaoman? What does this have to do with them?" Ji Xueqing asked in surprise after hearing this. ∈↗,

Yin Xiu glanced at her and said: "There are some things I haven't mentioned to you. In fact, Luluo, Xiaoman, and Xiaopi all have extraordinary origins. The main reason why I want to move to a place close to the mountains and forests this time is Or because of the green radish…”

"Huh? Can you tell me the specific situation? I remember I asked you about the situation of pothos last time. You only said that you picked it up and didn't say anything else. I also forgot about it. Now I hear this from you. I mean, is there any secret in this?"

Ji Xueqing immediately remembered what happened that day when Yin Xiu took Ning Yuejing and Luluo to her home for dinner. She suddenly became interested and couldn't help asking curiously again.

In fact, it doesn’t hurt to say these things. The main reason is that Ji Xueqing knows Yin Xiu's identity. As for Luluo's situation, there is no harm in telling her.

Yin Xiu has never taken the initiative to talk about this matter, but if people who already know his identity, such as Ji Xueqing, Jiang Shanxian or the juniors of the Yin family, ask, Yin Xiu will not deliberately hide it.

"About the situation of Pothos, it's a little long to explain. In fact, Pothos are not human beings..." Yin Xiu continued to drive the car and said.

Ji Xueqing was stunned for a moment, looking a little confused. She looked at Yin Xiu in shock and said, "Luluo is not a human being? Then... what is she? I see that she is no different from an ordinary child. How could she... "

Ji Xueqing's tone was full of shock and confusion.

Yin Xiu explained: "You should have heard of the term 'mountain spirit and water monster'."

Ji Xueqing was startled, then nodded slightly suspiciously, and responded: "I've heard of it. Aren't mountain spirits, water monsters, etc. often seen in myths, monsters and stories since ancient times? What do you mean... Is there a connection between the green radish and the 'mountain spirit and water monster' or something like that?"

After a slight pause, Ji Xueqing probably felt that her guess seemed to be consistent with what Yin Xiu wanted to express, so she added with a bit of hesitation, "Is it possible that there really are mountain spirits and water monsters in this world?" exist?"

Yin Xiu glanced at her. He nodded lightly and replied: "You are right. Pothos is actually a 'mountain spirit'."

"ah… "

When Ji Xueqing heard Yin Xiu's answer confirming her guess, she opened her mouth in surprise and let out a soft sigh.

"Do things like mountain spirits, water monsters really exist in this world? In that case, do ghosts, monsters, ghosts, zombies, and other supernatural things also exist?"

Ji Xueqing couldn't help but be surprised.

Yin Xiu looked at her and pursed her lips, shrugged her shoulders, and said: "Hmm, there's nothing surprising. But these things don't appear so easily. With the current situation on the earth, only if many specific conditions are met. Only under certain conditions can these things be derived... "

After hearing Yin Xiu's explanation, Ji Xueqing was still a little surprised. However, looking at Yin Xiu, she suddenly remembered Yin Xiu's identity and the incidents that had caused a stir on the Internet.

Since there are even "half-immortals" like Yin Xiu, and a huge and terrifying "monster" appeared in the Silver Sea, there was even a blood dragon in southern China... Others, such as mountain spirits and ghosts. There seems to be nothing surprising about this kind of thing.

Thinking of this, Ji Xueqing suddenly felt relieved.

"It seems that there are indeed many things in this world that we ordinary people don't know." Ji Xueqing couldn't help but sigh.

Yin Xiu glanced at her. He smiled and said: "I will make an amulet for you another day. Even if you encounter these things in the future, there is no need to be afraid of them."

"Okay! That's settled. Anyway, after listening to what you said just now, there really are those things in this world, I feel a little bit fuzzy and insecure." Ji Xueqing smiled, touched her cheek and said.

Yin Xiu responded with a smile.

At this time, Ji Xueqing asked again: "By the way. Luoluo is a mountain spirit. What does this have to do with you wanting to move to a place with mountains and forests?"

This is purely out of curiosity.

Yin Xiu explained: "This mountain spirit gathered in the mountains and forests. It was born after absorbing countless auras of heaven and earth and the essence of the mountains. They naturally like to stay in the mountains and forests, and there are many benefits to them in the mountains and forests. , and at the same time, only in the mountains and forests can their many abilities be maximized."

"Of course, this last point is not actually important to Luluo. It's just that since I brought her out of the forest, I have an obligation to help her find another forest for her to live a happy life."

After a slight pause, Yin Xiu continued: "Besides, it's not good for Xiaoman and Xiaopi to stay at home all the time. It would be better to have a wider place for them to play."

Ji Xueqing nodded clearly. Then he asked curiously: "By the way, what are the specific backgrounds of Xiaoman and Xiaopi?"

"The two of them..."

Yin Xiu laughed and said: "Xiao Man is actually a very rare spiritual beast. Its name is 'Five Elements Gold-Eating Treasure Hunting Rat'."

"Huh? What a weird name." Ji Xueqing frowned and said.

Yin Xiu smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just that you're not used to this kind of name."

There are no species on earth with such strong 'cultivation' flavor names. Ji Xueqing has never heard of this type of species name, so she naturally finds it strange.

"Maybe."

Ji Xueqing pursed her lips and said, "What about Xiaopi? What kind of weird race is it?"

"You must know this." Yin Xiu said with a smile.

"oh?"

Ji Xueqing looked at Yin Xiu in surprise and curiosity, waiting for Yin Xiu to tell her answer.

Yin Xiu smiled and said two words, "Pixiu!"

Um

"brave troops?"

Suddenly Ji Xueqing opened her eyes wide and looked at Yin Xiu in shock.

"Are you talking about the legendary Pixiu who only eats but doesn't eat anything? It was carved into a stone statue and placed at the gate. It is said that it can ward off evil spirits and attract wealth?" Ji Xueqing asked very surprised.

"That's right."

Yin Xiu chuckled softly, "Xiaopi is the Pixiu recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. And it is true that it only eats and does not eat, and it is true that it can ward off evil spirits. It's just not about attracting wealth. It should be purely because of it. It just means that it was artificially added to the body only to eat but not to defecate."

Ji Xueqing was severely shocked.

To say that Xiaoman is a five-element gold-devouring treasure-hunting rat, Ji Xueqing has no idea or concept at all. I just think the name is weird.

But for Pixiu... this is really a 'famous name', like thunder!

I think most Chinese people, even if they are not very familiar with Pixiu, have at least heard of the name and know that it is a strange beast in ancient legends.

So Ji Xueqing was shocked when she learned that the little pet that Yin Xiu had raised that looked like a puppy and that she hugged and teased from time to time was actually the "famous" Pixiu.

"Um. What, Yin Xiu, isn't it said that Pixiu is very ferocious in legend? Just because it is ferocious, it can ward off evil spirits and control the house. How come your little Pixiu is not ferocious at all, and he looks no different from a dog, just a little bit smaller. The son is older…”

Ji Xueqing asked rather puzzlingly.

"What you usually see is not Xiaopi's true appearance. That's because I used magic on it, so it looks like an ordinary puppy."

After a pause, Yin Xiu continued: "In addition, it is still young and is relatively familiar with you. Naturally, it will not behave viciously. If anyone dares to show malice to it, you will see it become vicious. What’s it like?”

"Uh... okay."

"But when I think about it, I still find it a bit unbelievable. Even legendary beasts like Pixiu actually exist in this world. Now I can't help but start to wonder whether all the things in myths and legends are real."

"If I think about it a few more times, I feel like my entire worldview is collapsing..."

Ji Xueqing pursed her lips, rolled her eyelids and said.

"Used to it."

Yin Xiu chuckled and said, "But having said that, if you don't know me, these things will actually be very far away from you. In all likelihood, you will not come into contact with them."

"Well, you are right. Think about it, I have never encountered these weird and mysterious things in the twenty years before I met you. But it has only been a little more than a year since I met you. I’ve seen so much.”

"However, although these things seem a bit bizarre, I am still willing to hear more of these things from you. Even if I listen to them purely as a curiosity or a story, I still find them very interesting..."

Ji Xueqing narrowed her eyes and said with a smile, turning her head to glance at Yin Xiu who was driving next to her.

"All right."

Yin Xiu laughed dumbly and paused. Said: "Then I will tell you about these weird and mysterious things when I have the chance, haha..."

"Yeah."

Ji Xueqing clapped her hands and shouted impatiently. Clearly interested.

Speaking of this, Yin Xiu suddenly remembered something. He couldn't help but said: "By the way, I almost forgot. When I first met you last year, when I was idle and bored, I actually tinkered with writing some random story material. One day I will find it and publish it. Here you go, you can read it as a story."

What Yin Xiu was talking about was actually the time when he first returned to Earth. When he had nothing to do, he wrote down some of the interesting or thrilling things he encountered in the world of cultivation over the years. .

When he was writing it, he went to the Internet to find a few movies and scripts and read them for reference.

It's just that after all, it was a labor of love, and it was thrown away soon after.

"Okay. From what you're saying, what you wrote should be based on truth?" Ji Xueqing immediately asked with interest.

Yin Xiu smiled and nodded lightly, "That's right. But just don't tell anyone else about this."

After a pause, he added, "Well... The main thing is that it's not appropriate to let other people know that those things are authentic. Just don't mention this. Otherwise, it doesn't matter even if others see the content, it's just some Just messy story material.”

"Okay! Don't worry, I won't spread it to others." Ji Xueqing responded immediately.

Yin Xiu actually doesn't care much about this.

As long as he doesn't tell others that the things he writes are true, it won't matter even if others see them. At most, people will think it's a plot outline or the content of a script. (To be continued.)u
