A group of people rushed into the Nine Gates, holding skewers in their hands.
When Lian Youyou smelled that, she burst into smiles and knew that they would not come back empty-handed.
Everyone also saw Wuxin sitting on the tree stump in the yard, Lian Youyou eating melon seeds, Lin Tingjun lying lazily, and the thing nestled in Lin Tingjun's arms.
Everyone was shocked. What the hell was that?! The charming and lazy figure and the long hair were definitely not someone they knew. But the vest he was wearing looked very familiar.
"Black Flame?!" He Shiqi recognized it first.
Yun Yao and San Niang immediately opened their eyes wide. That charming and seductive man turned out to be Hei Yan? !
"Get up!" He Shiqi suddenly stepped forward and pulled up Hei Yan who was lying on Lin Tingjun, his face full of disgust, "You are no longer a cat, can you act a little more like a demon god!"
"Get out of the way!" Hei Yan shook off He Shiqi's hand and rolled his eyes at him, which was also charming and seductive. "I'll do whatever I want. Lying down is comfortable, don't you know?" After saying that, he lay down again. Just like he usually liked to lie on the table, chair, and eaves around Lian Youyou, with cat legs stretched out and cat tail hanging down and swaying leisurely.
"No hope." He Shiqi shook his head repeatedly, looking at Lin Tingjun lying there, "Was he like this when he was a demon god?"
Lin Tingjun closed his eyes and shook his head. The Black Flame in the past was really not like this, at least not so soft and boneless, liking to lie on people.
"Wow - Lord Black Flame Demon is so handsome!" Yun Yao's eyes were full of stars. She ran towards Lian Youyou with great envy, took her arm and leaned on her shoulder to act coquettishly, "Sister Youyou, you are so amazing~~ I also want a man as handsome as you~~"
"Hehe." Lian Youyou smiled, but Yunxi was so scared that he quickly pulled Yunyao: "Sister! Sister! You're almost there!" He was afraid that Yunyao would be crushed to death by Lian Youyou, who actually dared to covet the man of the great god.
Lord Yao Guang and the others also laughed, all with the doting smiles on their faces of elders.
"Let's go and have tea. Hey, Wuxin, it's rare that you can show up and have tea with us." Lord Yao Guang also welcomed Wuxin very much.
"Brother Wuxin." Little Lettuce happily went forward and pulled Wuxin up. He was no longer the child who always hid behind others. He had even grown taller in the past few days.
Wu Xin was also moved by everyone's enthusiasm. However, he still remembered the etiquette and bowed respectfully to Lian Youyou.
"Go ahead." Lian waved her hand leisurely.
"Here." He Shiqi brought the grilled skewers to Lian Youyou. At the same time, Fat Buddha had already brought out a small table for Lian Youyou and the others, which was filled with grilled beef skewers.
Hei Yan, who had been slouching all this time, immediately perked up in the aroma of the barbecue, sat on Lin Tingjun's lap and looked at the small table: "Where's the wine? How can we do this without wine?"
"Here~~~" Sanniang put down the jar of wine in her hand, and Yunxi immediately pulled a small stool over, put the wine glass on it, and poured a glass for Lian Youyou attentively, as if to apologize, "Boss, Yunyao is still young and speaks without restraint, please don't take it to heart."
Yun Yao continued to lean on Lian Youyou's shoulder.
Yunxi nervously signaled her to come down.
Lian Youyou didn't care: "Yunxi, I think you should not be nervous. It's okay even if Yunyao likes my man, but they have to like Yunyao." Lian Youyou turned to look at Yunyao, "You still have to be strong enough."
Yun Yao happily hugged Lian Youyou tightly: "I know! Sister Youyou!"
Lian Youyou reached out and touched Yun Yao's face. Yun Xi was watching from the side and was sweating coldly. Why did he feel like his sister was trying to curry favor with Lian Youyou
"Don't worry about it. You are just free. Just eat your food." Sanniang pinched Yunxi and put a skewer of barbecue in front of Yunxi.
Yunxi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. Sanniang actually took the initiative to feed him food! He bit it in one bite and smiled foolishly.
Sanniang smiled and leaned on Yunxi's shoulder. In an instant, Yunxi forgot to chew the meat in his mouth.
Yun Yao smiled secretly and whispered in Lian Youyou's ear: "Sister Youyou, do you think my brother is stupid?"
Lian Youyou smiled and looked at Sanniang: "Sanniang, it's time to move on."
Yunxi was startled and his heart started beating wildly.
Sanniang took out her pipe and took a puff: "Now I know where home is, my heart is at peace... huh..." Sanniang couldn't let go of the past, not because she couldn't let go of the man who dug out her fish pearls, but because that man took away her only key to go home.
But now, she finally realized that her home was no longer in the sea. Instead, she felt that it would be useless not to return to that home under the sea. She even felt sad for them.
She could work hard here to find a new home for their race, while they were still hiding in the deep sea, despising the people on Earth and living a sneaky life under the protection of others.
She suddenly realized that after meeting Lian Youyou, her entire worldview had become vaster, and as a result, her mind had become more open.
Lian Youyou turned to look at Master Guan: "Master Guan, let Zi Gu come out for some fresh air. He's home now, so why should he be afraid of seeing people? Come out, he's also a young man, don't stay in the coffin all the time."
Guan Ye was stunned, his heart overflowing with emotion, but also filled with guilt. Why had he never thought of letting Zi Gu come and go freely in the Nine Gates? He didn't dare to let him see anyone because he was afraid that others would regard him as a monster and hurt the child's heart.
But in the end, it was his father who treated the child as a monster. The people of Jiumen would not treat Zigu as a monster.
"That's right, Master Guan, let Zi Gu out quickly, he can eat barbecued skewers." Yun Yao ran in directly, as if she wanted to snatch Master Guan's coffin.
The coffin laughed, his eyes were a little wet. He naturally knew that Zi Gu liked Yun Yao the most.
"Okay, okay. Here you go." Mr. Coffin took out a chopstick box from his sleeve and opened it.
Yun Yao shouted inside: "Zi Gu—Come in!"
Zi Gu, who was gnawing on a chicken leg in the chopstick box, looked up at Yun Yao blankly. Immediately, he hurriedly threw away the chicken leg, jumped out, stood beside Yun Yao happily, and looked at her shyly.
Yun Yao pulled his arm and pulled him out of the hall, pressed him among the crowd, and ate kebabs with everyone.
The Jiumen Courtyard has never been as lively as it is tonight.
In the hall, the aroma of tea is ethereal, and humans and ghosts are tasting the immortal tea together.
In the courtyard outside the hall, the aroma of cumin wafts in the air, and gods, demons and monsters eat grilled skewers together.
It is in the Nine Gates that those four words are realized: all beings are equal.
Fu Minghui quietly came to the Nine Gates. The conversation between his second brother and his eldest brother made him curious about the Nine Gates. He had never heard of demons and ghosts before, and this was the first time he heard of them. He was only 17 or 18 years old, so he was most curious about new things.
So, when he saw Yun Yao and the others coming back, he followed them because he didn't even know the exact location of the Nine Gates. It just so happened that he also wanted to ask Yun Yao out to see if she was willing to go out for a midnight snack with him. He liked Yun Yao, and that was true love. The princess liked her too, but it was just a normal love. He was very clear in his mind.
Since the princess was here, it was inconvenient for him to come to Yun Yao. However, the princess couldn't go out at night. (To be continued)
