The Demon in the Mirror

Chapter 22: Bowl Demon (1)

Views:

March has just passed, and April is in summer. The rain has stopped. Today, the sun is shining and the sun is scorching hot. Pedestrians have been walking under the sun for a long time, and their mouths are inevitably dry.

Xiao Huo was so hot that he collapsed into a big pie on Xifeng's shoulder: "Xifeng, let's find some water to drink."

"There is no place in front of the village or a store in the back, where there is water, there is no mountain spring water, and..." Xifeng pinched it and picked it up to take a look, "you are a fire beast, you have to come like a goblin sucking moonlight. Do you smoke sunlight? It's too much to say that it's hot."

"Greedy... sucks too much."

"... a glutton." Xifeng looked at Qingyuan, who had wrapped himself into a green sprout, and secretly tutted to death, but he didn't dare to say a word. The person who knows the current affairs is Junjie.

Seeing her looking at herself, Qing Yuan asked, "Why didn't you call me when you left in the middle of the night last night?"

Xifeng, who wanted to get rid of him, didn't expect that he ran wild all night, thinking that he could get rid of him, who wanted to eat breakfast beautifully, but suddenly saw him appear in front of her, so scared that she almost choked to death by the bun in her mouth.

She blinked and said, "Because I know you can find me right away, I want you to sleep a few more hours."

"Oh—" Qing Yuan was stunned.

Looking at the innocent Qinglong, Xiaohuo couldn't help but ask, "Lord Qinglong, how did you live before?"

"In a daze, sitting on the cloud every day in a daze." That's why he sealed himself. After the war between the gods and demons, the days were calm and boring.

Later, he thought that occasionally dealing with the various immortals who came to be guests would really affect him in a daze. It would be better to seal it by himself and stay in a daze.

Who wants to stay for 100,000 years, and there will be four more realms.

pretty good.

Especially in the human world, fragile and strong mortals, sentimental, mortals with seven emotions and six desires.

And all sorts of quirks, and if the food could be better, it would be perfect.

He doesn't want to go back.

"Xifeng." Qing Yuan said seriously, "We will never be separated in our lifetime."

"… "Fuck off! Xifeng roared in his heart, eating my money and spending my money indiscriminately, who wants to stay with you forever! When she spoke, seeing his burning eyes, Xifeng shamelessly turned into a coward again, nodding tearfully, "Okay."

"Pull the hook."

Xifeng hesitated for a moment, then hooked it with one finger. Anyway, there was no binding force, and he would not be punished by God. Quickly send this Qinglong away and stop pestering her.

As soon as she put down the hook, Xiaohuo jumped up on her head and looked from a distance: "There is a tea shed in front!"

There was no one to catch the demon in Hehua Town for the time being. After Xifeng took the money from the Zhao family, he went to the next town to see if there was anything to do there. Whoever wanted to walk for a long time did not see the gate of the town, and asked Chaif, only then did they know that the two towns were far apart, and they might not be able to walk in the dark.

Hearing that there was a tea shed in front, Xifeng decided to take a break and buy some dry food.

The tea shed was easy to set up, but there was a lot of tea and dry food. As soon as I approached Xifeng, I could smell the fragrance of boiled meat and steamed buns.

She asked for six steamed buns, and finally thought that she might have nothing to eat tonight, so she reluctantly ordered a plate of meat. Xiaohuo stuck his head out under her hair and said, "I also want a plate of peanuts."

"Would you like another plate of boiled fire rat?"

"… let it go to hell with peanuts or something."

"good!"

As soon as the steamed buns came up, Xiaohuo grabbed one and went under the table to eat it. Xifeng thought about it and brought Qingyuan a steamed bun. Anything in the mortal world was unpalatable in his mouth, so don't waste it.

Qing Yuan ate it without any objection, and it was still unpalatable, but mortals had three meals a day, and he had to learn. He took a few bites with difficulty, and pondered: "It is indeed time to resurrect A Shou and turn it into corn for us."

"..." God-like reflex arc!

Xifeng stuffed him another steamed bun and gagged.

There are six tables in the tea shed. There was no one when they sat down. After a while, some passers-by came here, some just passed by Hehua Town, and some were going to Hehua Town.

While chatting over tea, Xifeng didn't want to hear it, but the voice was close to his ears, so he still listened to it.

"If it were me, I would definitely be scared to death."

"I really frightened an old woman to faint that day, but fortunately there was someone at home, otherwise I would have been frightened to death."

"You still have to close the door at night in the future."

"That's a monster, what's the use of closing the door!"

Hearing the last sentence, Xifeng pricked up his ears, nibbled the buns in his hands clean, turned around and asked, "Dude, what were you talking about just now? Monsters?"

Seeing that she was a beautiful little girl, those few people let go of their vigilance and chatted with her: "Yes, recently, Qinghe Town, which is a town that is further ahead, has been haunted by monsters recently."

"Which family is it?"

"The whole town!"

Xifeng was surprised. Ordinary monsters either focus on one household to make trouble, or occupy a place for mortals to support, but the whole town suffers. This is really arrogant.

- The family gave too little money, but the whole town raised money to catch monsters, but it was a large amount of income.

She narrowed her shrewd eyes and said, "What kind of monster is it, and what did it do to the people in the town?"

"I didn't do anything to hurt the world, it's just too scary."

"Scary? What kind of spooky law?"

The man widened his eyes and gestured: "A bowl, broken bowl, walks to your door in the middle of the night every day, knocks on the door, and tells you, 'Let me give you some rice', it's not scary! It's not scary!"

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly took water and took a big mouthful of shock. It was terrible.

Xifeng thought he heard it wrong, bowl? A bowl that knocks on the door to beg for

Is the bowl a magic weapon? But since ancient times, who used a bowl to practice the magic weapon

Xifeng was not sure, so he turned to look at Qingyuan: "Qingyuan, what do you think?"

Qing Yuan, who was concentrating on eating steamed buns, raised his head: "What?"

"...You didn't hear a word just now?"

"No." Qing Yuan said solemnly, "Eavesdropping is wrong, you, immoral."

"..." Xifeng was about to fry again, so she hugged him to fry, but forget it, she said, "Has anyone used a bowl to make a utensil since ancient times?"

"No."

"That's weird, could it be that the bowl can still cultivate itself into a monster..." After going through the spring of the Corn Village, Xifeng didn't get into this bull's horn, maybe the bowl was possessed by a monster with a unique taste and played pranks with the people in the town.

However, with that weird bowl demon around, and continuing to knock on the door in the middle of the night, she also has business to do.

Seeing that she was interested in this monster, the man reminded: "Girl, I heard that someone wanted to catch that bowl of monster, but was severely injured, you must not be impulsive."

Xifeng smiled confidently at him: "No, because I'm a monster hunter."

There are no lotus flowers outside Qinghe Town. It is just an ordinary town. The town is similar to Lotus Town. Qingyuan is a little disappointed.

He thought that every place in the world was different.

And dinner is still buns.

It seems that the only food in the world is steamed buns.

When the three arrived in the town, it was almost time for Xifeng to think about it. Although Qingyuan didn't understand anything, he was still a man and couldn't live in another room.

She reluctantly took out the money and said to the shopkeeper, "I want two rooms."

"Girl, there is only one room left, do you want me to make room for you..."

Xifeng immediately said happily: "Then let's have a room."

Justifiably a room! It's not her!

Absolutely, yes, no, yes!

The only room left is not big, but there is a place for one person to lie on the floor. Xifeng very conscientiously took the broom to clean the ground, and said to Qingyuan: "It's time to sleep."

Qing Yuan looked at the broom in her hand and was a little disappointed: "It's not it."

At that time, they stayed in the corn village for two days, and they didn't give the money in advance, so the shopkeeper took the house back, and the broom in the room was also taken away.

When they went back to look for it, the broom was gone.

Xifeng patted him on the shoulder as a sign of consolation. There are not many people in the world who are as single-minded as him.

"I'm going to wash up, don't walk around."

"Well." Qing Yuan lay on the ground and started counting tiles. Nearly half of the roofs are counted before the west wind returns.

This room is not big, and there is no aisle lying there. Without thinking about it, Xifeng stepped over from his lap and walked to the bed.

The girl who had just taken a bath was clean and fragrant, Qing Yuan subconsciously turned her head to look, the girl was wiping the wet hair, bit by bit, looking like it was very laborious. He raised his hand and waved lightly, and a violent gust of wind rushed towards the west wind in an instant, blowing her long hair flying in an instant.

"In this way, the hair will be dry." Qing Yuan thought about the rules of mortals, and said solemnly, "Don't thank me."

"...I'm going to kill you!" Xifeng, who had been bullied all the way, roared unbearably, and with his head full of soaring hair that had been blown into shape by the strong wind, he threw himself on him, biting wildly, "Idiot!"

Qing Yuan, who was pressed by her, stretched out her hand to stop her, frowning: "You curse."

"Pooh!"

"It doesn't make sense."

"Bah!"

"Bad girl."

"Bah bah bah!"

Qing Yuan blocked her with one hand, covered her mouth with the other, and sat up suddenly. Seeing that she was knocked backwards by him, Qing Yuan quickly put his hand on her back, and was going to say that she was bad-tempered, but... it seemed that she was too close.

It was so close that she could smell the fragrance, so close that she could count how many eyelashes she had.

too close.

Qing Yuan was stunned for a while, then let go and tried to stand up. Unexpectedly, Xi Feng, who was supported by him, fell back heavily, his head hitting the floor.

My life is miserable...

West Wind curled up on the ground, about to cry.

If you can't beat it, you can't beat it, you can't get rid of it. He even dared to say that he would spend a lifetime with her, let alone a lifetime, she couldn't take it even for a day.

"You bullied me..." Xifeng choked, "You bullied me..."

Qing Yuan frowned, sat beside her and looked at her shrinking into a ball: "You bullied me."

What? Crying is useless? Is it reasonable for you not to comfort a beautiful girl crying in front of you? West Wind was indignant.

You really sealed it yourself because you couldn't find the little fairy!

"You bullied me..." Xifeng cried desolately, and she continued to cry without helping her up.

Qing Yuan looked down at her and wanted to pull her hand covering her face, but she didn't let go. Qing Yuan's brows wrinkled again: "It turns out that mortals will cry if they are not sad."

"… "

"Are you panicking?"

Xifeng stopped crying and looked at him with a stern face. She forgot that this dragon seemed to have the ability to sense the other's thoughts.

Hateful ability.

Xifeng raised his hand and wiped his face, trying to wipe away the fake tears, only to find out... oh, he didn't even squeeze out the tears, it was a failure.

"sleep!"

Qing Yuan felt that mortal girls were exactly the same as the little fairies in the sky—the mood could turn the river into the sea in one moment, and the next moment would be as still as stagnant water.

"Xifeng, you girls are very powerful, you can change your mood in an instant."

"Shut up and go to sleep."

"Oh."

The oil lamp was turned off, and the room was dark. Xifeng quickly fell asleep, Qing Yuan slowly got up, walked to the window and looked out. He always felt as if someone was following him.

Don't know who.

The night is sultry, it's time to be ugly. On the quiet street, there was no sign of a pedestrian, only the watchman walking on the road humming a song.

Suddenly, at the end of the street, there was a sound of "clang...clang...clang" the porcelain lightly tapped on the bluestone floor.

Slow and crisp, like someone is walking, one step, one step, clang clang clang.

The watchman couldn't help but stop, and froze in place, looking at the long, empty street.

In the early summer, the night wind was still cool, but a little sweat was already oozing out of the watchman's forehead.

He stared at the front with wide eyes. On the dark bluestone road, a shadow was cast on the wall at the corner.

bouncing... bouncing...

That's a bowl.

No one was holding it, just jumping... jumping.

The watchman opened his mouth, unable to restrain his astonishment. Suddenly, the bowl slammed into his eyes, almost close to the tip of his nose.

"Let me give you some rice."

"what-"

The desolate screams spread all around, and the stabbing West Wind, who was sleeping in a nearby inn, suddenly sat up, grabbed the quilt and said in fright, "What's the matter? What's the matter?"

"Boom, boom."

There was a soft knock on the door, Xifeng swallowed and stared at it with a stiff head.

Who will knock on the door in the middle of the night

Bowl, bowl demon

She whispered: "Little fire, little fire?"

No one answered.

At this time, Xiao Huo, who went out for food, was having a good time.

"Qingyuan? Qing..."

Before she finished calling her name twice, Qing Yuan responded with "Huh?" She was so moved that she walked to him lightly with bare feet, hugged his arm and said, "There is someone outside."

Qing Yuan corrected: "It's not a person."

"..." Sure enough, it was the bowl demon!

Xifeng, who hasn't woken up yet, doesn't want to fight monsters at all, not to mention that she doesn't have an employer, so she doesn't want to kill the people and catch only such valuable monsters for nothing.

"Boom, boom."

The door was knocked again, and Xifeng, who had just woken up and was a little restless, was now fully awake, and said angrily, "Get out!"

The sound outside the door fell silent immediately, and just when Xifeng thought it had been scared away, the door was knocked again.

Xifeng left Qingyuan behind and rushed behind the door, opened the door, and said loudly, "I told you to get out of here, didn't you hear me!"

There are no bowls in front of the door.

No monsters either.

There is... a peerless beauty. The evening wind blew lightly, brushing up his white toga, as beautiful as a fairy, and then... He also held a broom in his arms.

These days, beautiful men like brooms and don't like girls anymore

Xifeng blinked and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for..." The man's eyes fell on the man in Tsing Yi who was walking towards her behind her, he immediately showed his face and waved vigorously, "Hi, friend!"

Xifeng was stunned, what? Does this dragon have friends

Some people are willing to be friends with Qingyuan, or good friends!

Xifeng was stunned, and the concept of friendship was impacted.

Qing Yuan didn't even look at him, he rushed over and took back the broom in his hand: "It's it."

Xifeng twitched the corners of his mouth: "… Shouldn't you say hello to your good friend first?" What does grabbing a broom mean? How can a dragon like you have friends? ?

Qing Yuan then glanced at the white-robed man with a complicated expression: "You stole my broom."

West wind supports the wall, the point? ? ? Why on earth does this dragon have friends

The man in white robe spread his hands and said, "I noticed that you were awake, so I tracked it to an inn in the human world. Who would have missed you, but found that this broom is full of your dragon energy, so I followed this dragon energy to find it all the way. ."

Xifeng suddenly said: "It is estimated that when you came, we happened to be in the corn village. When we went back, you just left."

The white-robed man also understood, no wonder they noticed that they were waiting for him to find him and were not there at the time, and their breath arrived in Qinghe Town not long afterward.

Qing Yuan nodded: "Thank you."

The man in the white robe said in surprise: "Oh, the sky has changed, do you say thank you to me?"

"No? Oh, then I'll take it back."

"..." The white-robed man smiled suddenly, like a red lotus blooming in summer, dazzling and stunning, "It's still the same." He sighed, "I'm really happy."

Xifeng finally knew why this handsome man became Qing Yuan's friend, because he had a tolerant and kind heart.

But since he is Qing Yuan's friend and a friend of one dragon, he must also be a great character.

Xifeng's eyes were shrewd, and he smiled amiably: "Shen Jun, you are thirsty after visiting late at night. Let's have a cup of tea. My name is Xifeng, and I am a monster hunter, a good person!"

The white-robed man smiled and said, "Okay," and walked into the room casually. After entering, he suddenly realized that it was a single room with only one bed. He paused, then glanced at his friend and the girl again, his eyes were suddenly meaningful, and he bent towards the west wind, "Hello, sister-in-law."

"… we are not… "

"It doesn't matter, I understand that we, the people in the Nine Heavens, never pay attention to the rules of mortals, so don't be ashamed."

Xifeng wanted to beat him, but she dared not. She smiled dryly: "Qingyuan, are you not going to explain it to your friend?"

Qing Yuan, who was holding the lost and found broom, looked at his friend and asked suspiciously, "What are the rules of mortals? Can't hold hands and sleep together?"

Xifeng stroked his forehead, raised his hand to stop him, and continued, "Okay, don't explain."

God-like explanation, the misunderstanding is even bigger.

The white-robed man frowned slightly and asked, "Who is Qing Yuan?"

"He, your friend."

"... Who told you his name is Qing Yuan?"

"he himself."

The white-robed man's beautiful eyes blinked lightly, and suddenly... he let out a destructive laughter, and he almost laughed: "He's not called Qingyuan at all!"

West Wind was stunned.

She can even remember her own name wrong, what else can she say

Of course—keep smiling at him, complimenting him on how awesome he is.
