"What is the ghost?" The owner of the beverage shop also came out. After all, this is his territory. After a brief glance at the backyard, he found that it was different from before.
"The packers are full, and the rice bowls are all set. Every time the snow comes over, they help me rearrange the rice bowls. It's more tidy than what I did myself!" Its stomach smoothed its legs again, and the boss immediately stood up on his knees and said with a smile, "You must have seen snow here just now, right?"
"As expected of the snow, no matter how big the wind and snow is, you can always arrive on time!" With a sigh of relief, the boss shook his head again: "Everyone has come, why don't you come in for a cup of milk and then go back? Maybe it's because I have guests... "
As he was talking, one of them was carrying feces on the pack. He shoveled the fresh feces and piled them to the back. The boss then greeted Grandpa to enter the house: "It's snowing and cold outside, come in quickly."
Not long after entering the house, the old mobile phone that the boss was holding on his waist rang. Looking at the caller's name, the boss quickly answered the phone.
As soon as the button was turned on, he cracked and said a lot of words: "Why didn't you come in when you came? How are you on the road with such a heavy snow? It's okay to deliver the goods a day later or a day later."
"Don't be like that, Xue."
Jihuan couldn't help holding his breath when the boss said the name of the monster on the other end of the phone.
The monster on the other end of the phone finally didn't let him down. The next second when Ji Huan held his breath, a very small voice reached the ears of all the monsters at the scene through the phone's microphone.
It's a very wonderful sound, it's nice, but it doesn't seem to be entirely defined as nice or bad.
However, to Jihuan, none of this was important. The most important thing was that after waiting for so long, he finally heard the voice of the monster behind the scenes!
At this time, the monster was slowly saying something. Because the voice was too low, Ji Huan could hardly hear what he was saying. He just felt that the other party's voice was very soft, vaguely, Ji Huan actually felt that the other party's voice sounded very gentle.
Then the boss mentioned the question that A Jin entrusted him to ask before.
"Xue, the question I asked you before, haven't you called people? They happen to be with me, do you want to talk to them directly? Oops! I'll change the phone call mode, you can talk to them directly Speak!"
After a long conversation, the owner of the beverage shop finally removed the phone and pressed the public play button. After a while, the movement of the monster was faithfully transmitted to their ears.
Ji Huan heard the whirring sound. At first, Ji Huan thought it was the other party's breathing sound, but soon he found out that it was not the sound of breathing, but the sound of wind.
The other party should be moving fast, and not in a confined space, Ji Huan heard the wind, Xueluo's voice, and rustling.
And what he wanted to hear most, the voice of that monster, didn't appear for a long time.
However, he was not disappointed for too long. Just when Ji Huan held his breath until he could hardly continue, the voice of the monster finally rang out slowly.
"Hello, I heard what you guys asked me about in the Clays store."
As soon as he remembered the words, Ji Huan was stunned.
The voice of the other party is clear, transparent, and the tone is very polite. The voice and character are closely related. Jihuan imagined several other voices and personalities. However, when he remembered this voice, he realized that the truth of the matter was completely as he imagined. different.
Judging from the sound, the other party was actually a monster with good manners and good manners.
Even the temper sounds pretty good.
Jihuan continued to be stunned, and the other party continued to say: I'm sorry for not replying to you before. I thought about it for a long time, but I still think that the food that I like can't survive in the west. However, I heard that the reason why you wanted to ask me this question before was because of an amazing experience on the road…”
Like a very polite young man, the other party said slowly, if it weren't for the gusts of wind roaring from the microphone, Ji Huan would definitely think that the other party was chatting with him in a very safe place, and there was even a cup of hot tea at hand. Category…
However-
Hearing what the other party said, Ji Huan looked at A Jin, and the unsure boss stretched out his phone towards them, motioning them to come over and talk, and looked at A Jin, Ji Huan finally walked over by himself.
Heidan saw that Chiu Chiu walked over, and he walked over too, then grabbed Chiu Chiu's robe, and raised his little head, he saw Chiu Chiu pick up the phone and talk to the other party.
"Yes." No matter how nervous he was, Ji Huan's words were still calm, and his expression was... serious.
"We met a monster on the train going here. It's not the first time we met. He also traveled everywhere on the train before." Ji Huan began to tell the story.
"... We learned from this encounter that he did not travel blindly for entertainment, but to find his hometown."
"According to his recollection, his hometown should be in a very cold area when he was a child, where green-leaf trees are abundant. The main food for him and his clan is the leaves of green-leaf trees. In order to find sufficient food, they have to learn a lot of relevant common sense. In addition, they also have a companion monster called Karas, I think he probably told us this when he saw that my grandfather was Karas."
"Their relationship with Karas was originally a prey and a hunter, but it developed into a symbiotic relationship unknowingly. His clansmen would raise a large number of monsters to provide food for Karas, and Karas also helped them resist Foreign enemies, and even take care of small monsters. When he was grazing his prey, he encountered earthquakes and lost his clan. The Karas rescued him and died to save him. When he buried the Karas, he was already there. West, at that time he was too young to find a way back, so he lived in the West."
"He always thought that the coldest city in the west was his hometown, but later he found out that he didn't even know that there was a place further north in this world. Knowing that we were coming, he also prepared a token to ask us to help him find his clan. "
"Such a monster born in an extremely cold region can live in the hot west for hundreds of years. We only thought that plants might also be fine."
Ji Huan briefly recounted the story of the old monster, and quickly changed his tone to answer the other party's question.
Although the tone is calm, he has been carefully observing the reaction of the other party. He has always grasped the information he disclosed to the other party. When the other party asked him why he wanted to ask this question, he said the old monster on the way. s story,
Under normal circumstances, the person on the other side would not ask any more questions, but—
If the other party is a monster related to the old monster, he will definitely take the initiative to bring the topic back.
Yes, until now, Jihuan suddenly had a wonderful idea in his heart: This monster named Xue, wouldn't it be... the clan of the old monster on the road, right
It's not such a coincidence, is it? No way
But-
"What a touching story, can I ask the name of the first monster to live alone in the west?"
The other party actually really picked up the topic again! Moreover, the other party actually asked the name of the monster!
At the same time of shock, Ji Huan had another thought of "as expected".
So, he slowly answered the other party's question.
"Nila. The name of that monster is Nila. He was too young to leave his hometown and has no name yet. Nila is the name of Karas who saved him." Jihuan said calmly.
At the same time, he suddenly thought of the expression of the old monster who introduced his name at that time, and what he said at that time.
"... My current name is Nila, the name of the Kalas who saved me, you can tell my people this name..."
The old monster's expression was gentle when he said this, he didn't hold out much hope, neither did Ji Huan.
But now, should it be said to be "a prophecy"
Just like a certain omen, they actually found the clan of the old monster, but...
This clan is their enemy.
The wind on the other end of the microphone got louder.
Wind, snow...
There seems to be a strange voice, Ji Huan can't really hear it.
After a long time, just when Ji Huan thought that the other party's phone was blown away by the wind, the other party's voice came from the opposite side again.
"...It's a really touching story. I...also raised monsters, all of them from the north. I tried to put them in a warmer place, but without exception, they all died."
"Although your friend is a monster, and my side is only a monster, but I am still very interested in his experience. If there is a chance, I really want to meet him."
"There should be a chance. Nila said that he will go to the real north to find his hometown. It is still possible for you to meet." Ji Huan continued calmly.
There was a bit of low laughter from the other end of the microphone.
"I still want him not to come here. The weather here is getting worse and worse. His body, which is used to the hot climate in the west, should not be able to adapt to the weather here again."
"I'll bring some seeds to you later. If it's convenient, you can also bring some to Nila. There should be some in it that can make him feel the taste of his hometown."
"If it can grow," he added.
Then-
After the deadly silence, along with the howling wind, Xue's voice came from the other end of the microphone again:
"The weather will become colder in the future, so you should go back earlier."
"Go back to your hometown."
"goodbye."
After speaking, he hung up the phone.
The sound of the wind, the sound of snow... all the sounds disappeared.
