The Urban Legends of Monsters: Shape and Shadow (1)


Shape and Shadow

The afternoon sun warmed this dilapidated and abandoned factory area, a few tufts of weeds undulating slightly in the breeze, and two feral cats fighting each other from this newly destroyed utter ruin He ran up, but was frightened by a few figures standing there, and suddenly stopped tearing, each with their tails between their tails and got into the crumbling and half-collapsed factory building.

There is a thin layer of smoke-like objects floating on the open space. Although the breeze is blowing, it does not seem to be affected by the wind. It is not blown away by the wind, but flows slowly, and consciously moves towards Intermediate agglomeration.

Liu Di, Gui'er, and Nan Yu are approaching this direction. Flying in front of them is Huo'er, whose feathers are somewhat dim.

After they rushed over, they saw that Zhou Ying, who had already formed a human figure, was sitting up slowly, his shadow knife had disappeared, and his figure seemed a little faint. This situation seemed very bad, but at least He was still alive, which was a relief to everyone.

Zhou Ying looked at everyone and said calmly, "I won."

Rose took the lead in cheering and rushed over. The fire turned into a rocket, flew fast in the air, and drew "V" one by one to vent its happiness. But the closer they got, the more they realized that something was wrong, Liu Di and Nan Yu were not as impulsive as they were. Liu Di and Nan Yu stopped beside Zhou Ying and looked at Zhou Ying with worried eyes. Gui'er screamed with joy, jumped, and opened her arms to give Zhou Ying a big hug, but Zhou Ying floated away between her arms, and then quickly condensed back outside her arms.

"Why didn't you restore your original shape!" Rose cried out in surprise.

"This is my original form." Zhou Ying looked at her and looked at everyone a little suspiciously and said, "I seem to... It seems that I can't change into a human being."

"It's not just like that..." Liu Di said as he circled around him, clutching his chin. At this time, Nan Yu also caught the fire who was about to throw himself into Zhou Ying's arms: "Huo'er, don't go over first, Zhou Ying's state is very wrong." Usually, even when Zhou Ying appears as a shadow, there is an entity. , can be touched, but now it seems that he can only exist in an illusory form.

Zhou Ying tried to condense her body, but shook her head at everyone after a while: "No, my mana seems to have lost a lot, and my body can't be condensed."

"If you can't condense your body, wouldn't that be similar to hitting back the prototype!" Liu Di stretched out his hand to test Zhou Ying's body several times, and each time it passed through his body.

Zhou Ying nodded after examining himself: "It seems that at least two hundred years of cultivation has been lost."

Two hundred years is not a short period of time, even for monsters whose lifespans are much longer than that of humans. Two hundred years of cultivation may represent a whole level of cultivation for monsters. Especially Zhou Ying, who has only practiced for more than 300 years, is almost equivalent to knocking him back to his original form. Unexpectedly, Zhou Ying managed to save his life in this battle with the nine-tailed fox, but he had to suffer such a result, and everyone's faces showed unbearable expressions. Only Zhou Ying himself was indifferent: "As long as he is still alive, his mana can be slowly cultivated." He said this while looking at Yue Ronghuan's corpse.

Yue Ronghuan's corpse is lying not far away. Because it has been ravaged by the extremely uneasy fire as a tool to vent his anger in the past few days, it has long been impossible to see that it once had such gorgeous fur. It was a nine-tailed fox. The originally white fur was scorched black by the fire everywhere, and the intact place was also covered with dust. The smell of the corpse also attracted many flies to circle around it.

This is death. No matter how proud and powerful creatures were before they were alive, they could not escape the same ending in the end.

"Huo'er, cremate it." Zhou Ying said.

Huo'er didn't say a word, and immediately a flame shot out. The fact that it can still emit such a degree of fire in such a tired state shows how willing it is to rasp this hateful enemy to ashes. Yue Ronghuan's body instantly turned into ashes in the flames, Liu Di raised his hand, and a gust of wind swept through, blowing the ashes into the air, and finally no trace was left.

That was the ending of Feng Wenyuan, and today it appeared on Yue Ronghuan.

"Maybe they will meet again somewhere," Nan Yu said softly while watching all this. "As long as they can see each other again, they will never be separated again anyway..."

Gui'er clasped Nan Yu's arm tightly, said "um", and nodded.

"It's alright, it's alright, it's time to go home, I haven't slept well for several days!" Huo'er didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, so she yawned and prepared to go to Zhou Ying's arms to sleep as usual. Nan Yu quickly grabbed it again: "Huo'er, you can't touch Zhou Ying from now on."

"Why!" Huo'er screamed. It was finally over, Zhou Ying was still alive, it thought everything could go back to its usual trajectory, but now I suddenly couldn't tell it how it would accept it when it approached Zhou Ying.

"Zhou Ying's cultivation has been depleted a lot, and now his state can't bear your power. If you touch him, it will hurt his vitality in the lightest, or he will die in serious cases." Liu Di solemnly said: Say.

Huo'er yelled at him fiercely: "I don't believe it, when Ying didn't become a human, he held me all day long, and he didn't die!"

"At that time you were still young, and your strength was not strong enough to hurt him, but now you are no longer the little Bifang that just hatched back then." Nan Yu gently touched its head and said.

Huo'er can't believe Liu Di's words, but Nan Yu will never lie to it. Huo'er looked helplessly at Zhou Ying, Nan Yu, Gui'er, Liu Di...

It didn't speak any more, and headed towards home in a dejected manner.

"Huo'er, in fact, you don't need to be so depressed. Maybe Zhou Ying just temporarily lost his mana because of the serious injury. Go back to rest and rest. He may be able to return to normal in a few days." Nan Yu comforted him. Huo'er felt better. Although he couldn't touch Zhou Ying, he still flew around him: "Ying, I order you to get better soon, or where do you tell me to sleep? Where to roll?"

"I know." Zhou Ying said apologetically, "I will practice as soon as possible."

"It's not about cultivating as soon as possible, it's about changing it back for me right away, you know!"

"Yes, I know."

Gui'er secretly lowered her head to wipe the tears from her eyes, grabbed Huo'er and said, "Zhou Ying just woke up and needs a rest, don't bother him anymore! Let's have a party to celebrate? What do you want to eat? Just say Come out and I'll do it!"

The temptation of delicious food temporarily relieved Huo'er's grievance, and immediately counted the long feathers on his wings: "This, that, this, that..."

Zhou Ying jumped into Liu Di's shadow, hiding inside and entering a dormant state again. The duel had left him extremely weak, and he had to recuperate as much as possible. As for re-cultivation, it will not start until his vitality is restored.

The group slowly left the ruins and walked towards Zhou Ying's home after a long absence. The setting sun shines through the clouds on the horizon, giving everything around it a beautiful color. It looks like a good day tomorrow, at least it will be a brand new day. Liu Di waved his arms towards the sky as he walked.

Everyone was sitting on the sofa at Zhou Ying's house.

Liu Di rarely sat upright, and Huo'er was also exceptionally obedient on Lin Rui's lap. Zhou Ying sat down in the form of a shadow, his posture was very strange. Everyone was worried, especially Huo'er, whose eyes were about to burst into flames.

Zhou Ying has rested for more than half a month after his duel with Yue Ronghuan. Although his mana has recovered a little, it is only enough to condense him into a solid body, not enough to transform into a human form. Nan Yu and Liu Di just conducted a joint inspection of Zhou Ying, and they confidently announced that his condition was really returned to its original state, not the temporary weakened state that Huo'er expected.

"It's just more than two hundred years of cultivation," Liu Di tried to make his tone easier, "Actually, this is already much better than the worst..."

"At least two hundred and fifty years!" Huo'er screamed, "He can't hold me now!"

"Then I will practice for another 250 years." Zhou Ying had accepted this reality and seemed very calm. If it was an ordinary monster who lost 9 out of 10 cultivation bases out of thin air, even if the optimistic nature was not unacceptable, he would definitely feel annoyed in his heart. But Zhou Ying is really open to it. His character is like this, and he is not afraid of hard work and waiting. There is nothing unacceptable for him to practice for hundreds of years.

But Huo'er couldn't accept it.

Zhou Ying's mana lost at least seven or eight out of ten after this fierce battle. In this way, he is so far away from the current Huo'er that a single touch of Yi Fang may make his mana just enough. The Shadow Phantom that condensed into a shadow vanished into ashes, so Huo'er was repeatedly ordered by everyone not to approach Zhou Ying. From the initial extreme unwillingness, Huo'er's mood has transformed into a kind of extreme depression, and when he talks about this, he is downcast. Now it's even worse, telling it that it's fantasies that Zhou Ying will recover after a period of time has also come to nothing. It needs to wait two hundred and fifty years to get the caress of his father, which makes it unbearable.

"I won't do it!" Huo'er's dissatisfaction erupted, and he yelled at Zhou Ying, "I just don't do it! You change me back immediately."

"I'm sorry, fire..."

"I just quit! You change immediately! Immediately!"

"Huo'er, Zhou Ying doesn't want to do this himself, so stop being self-willed."

Rose's persuasion added fuel to the fire, and the fire on Huo'er burst into flames: "I just don't listen! I just want to make trouble! I don't care, who told him to run to find that nine by himself. The tail fox! Who told him not to bring me! He found it himself! Now change it back to me and compensate for my losses!"

"Why are you unreasonable, Huo'er."

"I'm just being unreasonable!" Huo'er himself knew that no matter how unreasonable he was, Zhou Ying's situation would not change suddenly. If Zhou Ying hadn't rashly decided to deal with the nine-tailed fox himself, if Zhou Ying hadn't slipped away from him, things wouldn't have turned out like this. This is obviously because of his self-willedness that caused the current situation, he is clearly the victim, and everyone still says that he is self-willed! The more it thought about it, the more aggrieved and angry it became. It flew up and rushed out of the window: "I want to run away from home, don't come to me!" Zhou Ying was left to sit there helplessly.

Because of the temptation of the food made by Rose, Huo'er's running away from home only lasted until dinner time, but her grievances and dissatisfaction did not diminish, so she ignored Zhou Ying at home and wiped it after eating. The mouth went away, and he didn't even sleep at home. And its various deeds outside are also continuously transmitted to Zhou Ying's ears through Liu Di or Lin Rui.

"Huo'er inexplicably beat up Luo Tian because he kindly asked why he hadn't seen Zhou Ying recently."

"Find a way to stop it! Huo'er is burning movie theaters one by one, because the name of a staff member in the movie that is currently showing happens to be Zhou Ying."

"Is Huo'er at home? Why does it even hit my mother's students! It's wrong for them to talk about Zhou Ying behind their backs, but they can't go to school!"

"Zhou Ying, your family's fire is too much, you actually use someone else's poem to say 'innumerable Yang Hua has no shadow' as an excuse to eat others! Does it want to engage in * * in Lixin City! "

"Today, the fire set a fire in the downtown square and burned several cars, because one of them had the same license plate number as your taxi."

"Huo'er today..."

"Your house fire..."

This kind of information is endless, and Liu Di, Nan Yu, and Lin Rui are also exhausted because they follow behind to clean up the mess for Huo'er. At this time, they had to admire Zhou Ying—he used to help Huo’er clean the battlefield all by himself, I really don’t know how he has such good energy and stamina.

But now Zhou Ying, the only one who can control Huo'er, can't restrain it at all. On the contrary, if Zhou Ying controls it, it will become more and more nonsense. It can even be said that its various behaviors are aimed at Zhou Ying came.

"The rebellious period...the rebellious period..." Liu Di sighed, shaking his head like this, "Children in the rebellious period are difficult to control..."

"It's not Huo'er's fault." Zhou Ying insisted. Now he is full of guilt towards Huo'er, and it is his fault that he can't take good care of Huo'er.

"No matter whose fault it is, the most important thing is that everyone can't stand it any longer!" Liu Di said, clasping the glass surface of the coffee table with his knuckles, "The fire is so tossing, to be honest, even I have the heart to move, not to mention others!"

Zhou Ying said sadly: "I'm sorry." He knew that these days, Liu Di and Nan Yu, especially Liu Di, had to deal with Huo'erdi's various actions, and to deal with the aftermath, he almost couldn't eat or sleep well. Dreaming is dreaming of burning the house on fire.

"I said it's not important. The important thing is that you have to figure out a way to stop it from going so crazy, and only you can control it."

Zhou Ying sighed, it would be great if he could control Huo'er now, but unfortunately Huo'er has been arguing with him. It can even be said that Huo'er's recent nonsense happened because of anger with him. If he went to persuade him , it is very likely to backfire and make the fire worse.

Liu Di shook his head: "In short, it's your responsibility, you can find a solution yourself. If this goes on, I'm going to strike and quit!"

Although the original Huo'er was a big problem for the monsters in Lixin City, Zhou Ying could restrain it for a while, plus its simple personality, most of the monsters can touch the rules of its behavior, and it's still okay. Bear. Now that there is no Zhou Ying's control, it starts to play cards out of order again, how can the monsters in Lixin City not feel that a catastrophe is imminent. Apart from pushing Liu Di to go to the door to negotiate with Zhou Ying, who did not educate his children well, they had to pack up their burdens and plan to move.

Zhou Ying felt that he should talk to Huo'er. Although he didn't know what to say, he wanted to talk to Huo'er. The two of them hadn't had a good conversation for several days. In the past, Huo'er always liked to follow him no matter what he was doing. Even when he was cultivating, Huo'er would stop on his head or knees. Now Huo'er has to keep a distance from him, and even Zhou Ying feels that life has become awkward, let alone Huo'er. No wonder he vents his grievances by disrupting things all day long.

"Has Huo'er been back?" Zhou Ying asked Rose in the kitchen. Now it seems that only Rose's craftsmanship can lure Huo'er back home.

Rose points to the bedroom.

Zhou Ying gently pushed the bedroom door open to a gap, and saw that Huo'er was indeed rolling around on the bed. The bedrooms and beds in their homes are basically decorations. The fixed sleeping place of Huo'er is in the pockets or knees. Zhou Ying, who does not need to sleep, will only lie on it symbolically to learn human behavior. Huo'er usually likes this big bed. Although it sleeps in the matchbox in Zhou Ying's pocket, he likes to roll on the bed when he is free. That's why their family always needs to replace the torn sheets for the sake of.

At this time, Huo'er was rolling on the bed bored. Recently, he couldn't go to his designated place to sleep. This bed finally played its role.

Just as Zhou Ying was about to walk in, she saw that Huo'er's movements had stopped. It was lying on the bed halfway, staring at the patterns on the sheets, and suddenly tears fell from her eyes. Huo'er's tears were a mass of flowing "fire water", which immediately caused a fire when it fell on the bed. Huo'er used his wings indiscriminately for fear of being beaten, and hurriedly wiped his eyes, obviously not wanting others to see him crying. Even Zhou Ying has only seen Huo'er cry twice over the years, once when Zhou Wei died, and the other time is today.

Zhou Ying quietly closed the door and backed out.

He sat down beside Liu Di, and after a long silence he suddenly asked, "Is there a way to restore my mana?"

Liu Di was stunned for a while, and after a while he said, "What?"

"I want to restore my mana as soon as possible."

Liu Di tilted his head and looked at him. Zhou Ying should understand better than anyone that cultivation requires one step at a time, and after the accident, he was not too frustrated or reluctant to give up his lost mana, why did he suddenly make this request? After thinking for a while, Liu Di understood the root cause of the matter, sighed and said, "Huo'er will understand slowly, this is something that no one can do. If you want to quickly restore mana in this situation, unless there is an immortal-level character. To help you, or else there is an elixir to assist you in your cultivation, otherwise it is impossible to imagine."

Zhou Ying asked unwillingly: "Is there really no other way?"

Liu Di spread his hands: "Or you can eat other monsters and absorb their cultivation, so that you can recover faster."

Zhou Ying frowned and began to think about the feasibility of this proposal.

Gui'er came out of the kitchen and put the plate in her hand heavily on the table: "Liu Di, don't give Zhou Ying any bad ideas, it's messy enough now."

Liu Di stretched out his hand and took out a chicken leg from the plate and stuffed it in his mouth. He said vaguely, "He asked me himself."

Gui'er said while tidying up the messy living room: "Speaking of a kind of elixir that can increase mana rapidly, I know one. When I was a child, I heard my mother say that there is a kind of elixir in the Yellow Emperor called Hui. Tiandan is specially used for people who have suffered great damage to their cultivation because of accidents. A friend of my great-grandmother was lucky enough to get this pill after being seriously injured, so he saved his Taoism and finally achieved a positive result. "

"Why didn't you say something like this sooner!" Huo'er came out of the house at some point, grabbed Rose by the collar and shouted loudly.

"What's the use of what I said?" Gui'er asked with a glance.

"I'm going to find it for Ying!" Huo'er announced loudly, "That way Ying can return to normal immediately!"

"Where did you find it?"

"Just the emperor you mentioned! He probably lives in Beijing, right? I have been to the place called the Forbidden City!" Huo'er declared confidently, "As long as I scare him, he will be obedient immediately. You can rest assured!"

Liu Di covered his head and groaned: "Zhou Ying, how do you usually educate your children? Why haven't you even taught basic common sense?"

Zhou Ying shook his head: "Huo'er, she is talking about the Emperor of Heaven, the Yellow Emperor, not the emperor of human beings. These two words are not the same spelling. Look, this is 'Emperor', this is 'Yellow Emperor'."

Liu Di groaned again: "Is it just that the two names are spelled differently?"

Zhou Ying thought for a while and then said: "Huang Di is very powerful, you can't beat him."

"Oh..." Huo'er nodded clearly, "I understand, then I will attack him from behind."

Liu Di laughed and fell on the sofa: "You want to sneak attack Huangdi from behind! Hahahaha, I laughed so hard... Hahahaha... Zhou Ying, you really deserve to be the child you taught..."

Gui'er also laughed for a while, feeling that this would hurt Zhou Ying and Huo'er's self-esteem, and quickly restrained the laughter and said to Huo'er: "The Yellow Emperor is the first of the five emperors in heaven, the emperor in the center, who is capable of The emperor of the gods who commands the gods. We can't even see his face like a little monster or a little spirit beast."

Huo'er opened her mouth wide and said, "He's so powerful? Yes, I seem to have heard Zhou Wei say it before." In the past, when Zhou Wei was teaching Zhou Ying's class, although he always grabbed it to listen to it, but it However, he always tried every means to skip classes. For Zhou Wei, it was hard enough to teach a wooden-headed Zhou Ying, and Huo'er couldn't stand it, so he just let it go. Most of Huo'er's knowledge was heard while Zhou Ying was sleeping, and it was not surprising that he was in a state of scales and claws.

"Huangdi also seems to have a must-fang spirit beast, but he is called the king of spirit beasts. He usually drives six dragons for Huangdi. If you look like this, one dragon can take yours. Life?" Liu Di deliberately said sarcastic words to stimulate Huo'er. You must know that water and fire are mutually resistant, but as a Bifang, he can control six dragons, which shows how tyrannical its strength is. Compared with Huo'er, one is in the sky, and the other is out of reach on the ground.

"Hmph," Huo'er said resentfully, "what's so great! When I grow up, I will also get a few dragons to pull the car for Ying. At that time, our taxis won't even need gas." Having said that, its voice was lowered, and the room that had just been laughing and energetic became silent again - when will Zhou Ying be able to drive his taxi again? If his mana could not be recovered, what would happen if he really hired Jiaolong to pull the cart for him.

Huo'er lowered her head for a while, then suddenly said, "Where can I find that elixir?"

Rose hesitantly asked: "You, what do you want to do?"

"Of course I'm going to find it for Ying." Huo'er said decisively.

"Did you not understand what I said just now?" Liu Di patted its head, "Is the elixir of the Yellow Emperor something that a little spirit beast like you can covet!"

"Can't I steal if I can't steal? Can I cheat if I can't steal? I can't cheat if I can't... Rose, what can I do if I can't cheat?" Huo'er asked shaking his head.

Liu Di tapped it hard: "Don't you understand what I'm saying! Where is the Kunlun Mountain where the Emperor of Heaven lives? You can't live with the weak water and the Flame Mountain on the periphery!" Liu Di thought it was fine. The above is bold enough, but I didn't expect it to be far worse than Huo'er's ignorant and fearless. No matter how powerful a monster, when it comes to Kamito, it is not as weak and helpless as a child. The so-called powerful spirit beasts are just pets and followers of the gods. It's not that Liu Di is timid, but that it is beyond his imagination. If he doesn't have the power to destroy the world, how can he be called a god.

"Actually, you don't have to go to Kunlun Mountain." Rose whispered.

Huo'er immediately stuck her head and asked, "Why? Why?"

Gui Er said: "I heard from my mother that my great-grandmother's friend didn't get the elixir from Kunlun Mountain, but the Mountain of Green Needs."

"The mountain of greenery is the capital under the emperor." Liu Di murmured.

"What is the capital under the emperor?" Huo'er asked with blinking eyes.

"It's the villa of the Emperor of Heaven!" Liu Di answered succinctly, "It's not surprising that there will be the elixir of the Emperor of Heaven there, after all, it is the place where the Emperor of Heaven lived."

"Gui'er, did your mother tell me how your great-grandmother's friend stole it?" Huo'er asked carefully. What others can do, he is no worse than others.

"She didn't steal it, but it was given to her by Wuluo, the mountain **** of Qingyaozhi Mountain. Before Wuluo became a god, he was also a member of the mountain ghosts. He couldn't bear to see his fellow clan hurt, especially The elixir that saved my great-grandmother's friend."

"What is the mountain god?" Huo'er asked again. The mountains and forests in the human world have long been without the guards of the mountain gods, so it does not know what the mountain gods are.

"It's for the Emperor of Heaven." Liu Di replied again.

"Oh, so it was the old man who was watching the gate..." Huo'er nodded and said, "Can't you ask that old man to give Ying an elixir too?"

"Who's the old man!" Gui'er threw the cushion on Liu Di's face, "Don't teach Huo'er things, God can talk nonsense like this too!" Wuluoshen is the pride of the mountain ghost family, She couldn't tolerate Liu Di being so disrespectful, "Huo'er, my great-grandmother's friend is also a mountain ghost, and God Wuluo rescued her because of the incense of the same clan, why should she help Zhou Ying? With our identities, even I can't even see her face."

"Then steal her, rob her! She should not be some kind of immortal emperor!" Huo'er announced excitedly, "Ying, wait at home, I will find her and get the elixir and come back ." After saying that, he was ready to fly out of the window.

Liu Di raised his voice and asked, "Huo'er, do you know where the Mountain of Green Needs is?"

"I'll ask Fox to help me look up the map."

Liu Di covered his head again and groaned: "Zhou Ying, can't you teach it something common sense?"

"Huo'er, the Mountain of Qing Yao is in another world. The distance from here is not only described by distance." Nan Yu walked in at an unknown time, patted Huo'er on the head and said that she was a little worried to everyone. He asked, "Are you going to the Mountain of Green Needs to fetch elixir to help Zhou Ying?"

"I just mentioned the elixir that can help Zhou Ying, but I didn't say I'm going..." Liu said, biting his lip and stopping, after a while, he raised his head and said to everyone, "I'm just going. Is there nothing wrong?"

The room was silent, but Huo'er's arrogant and inexplicable cry broke the silence: "That's right, I have to go, you all stay at home and wait for my good news!"

"Huo'er can't go!" Liu Di said flatly, "Among us, only I have been to all realms, so if I want to go, I must go, and then Nan Yu, her experience and mana can be my assistant In this way, someone must stay here to protect Zhou Ying and Gui'er - you should know about Huo'er... Hehe, and how many enemies I have provoked, if even Huo'er leaves, they will definitely I will start with Zhou Ying."

Nan Yu nodded and said, "Yes, Liu Di, Huo'er, and I, we cannot all leave."

"Then I'll go with Nan Yu, and Liu Di will stay here!" Huo'er shouted in dissatisfaction.

"Don't you understand what I said? I'm the only one who has been to all realms. If you didn't lead the way, you wouldn't even know where the Mountain of Green Needs is, and what are you talking about to get elixir!" Liu Di seriously confronted the fire. When Er was talking, it was rare. He stared at Huo'er and said, "Do you know where the Mountain of Green Needs is? Do you know what kind of inhabitants are there in all the worlds? You know your inevitable nemesis. Where do the dragons haunt? Do you know how the mountain gods and earth gods from all walks of life need to deal with them?"

Although Huo'er was not reconciled, she still shook her head.

"So I have to go, and you..." Liu Di's serious color disappeared shortly after, and asked Huo'er with a beating expression, "You don't want to travel with me, do you?"

"Humph! I'm going to **** the elixir! I want to help Ying! I'm going!" Huo'er launched a rogue tactic, shouting and rolling, "I'm going, I'm going!" /

"Huo'er, we will definitely bring the elixir back to Zhou Ying, don't you believe me?" Nan Yu said to Huo'er Baozheng. Although she clearly knew in her heart that this hasty decision to travel far is not a good idea, it is easier said than done to find the elixir that can help Zhou Ying recover. It may not be possible to "take" it back. But now it's the most important thing to appease Huo'er, she can only be more confident in what she says.

"I have a better idea..." Gui'er, who had been listening to their plan, suddenly said, "Nan Yu don't go, I'll go with Huo'er and Liu Di." , she bit her lip and said after a while: "I am a mountain ghost, and mountain ghosts in all realms outside the human world are very popular, and Wuluo God is the predecessor of the mountain ghost family. My family has always been very caring, maybe because I went there, things might be more successful." After saying that, Gui'er looked at Nan Yu eagerly, for fear that she would be unhappy because of it.

Nan Yu nodded: "Yes... maybe this is the best way."

Liu Di's mind was spinning quickly, leaving Nan Yu to bring Rose and Huo'er? In this way, the strength is not much weaker, and there is a very good diplomatic envoy, but the guy Huo'er is more difficult to command. However, leaving it alone in Lixin City to protect Zhou Ying is equally worrying, or Nan Yu is more reliable. He looked at Huo'er and said, "I'll say it first. If you go out with me, you have to listen to me, or I'll leave you in another world!"

Huo'er was overjoyed when she heard that she could follow him, she nodded without hearing what Liu was saying, and jumped on Gui'er's body, jumping and jumping: "Gu'er, you are the best! "

"Then..." Liu Di looked at Zhou Ying and said, "That's it."

Zhou Ying did not express his opinion from the beginning to the end, and sat there watching everyone. When Liu Di asked him, he still did not speak, but just sat there quietly. It was not until Liu Di asked everyone to leave and prepare for their own preparations, he said to Liu: "You have to take care of them. The elixir is not important, you have to bring them back."

Liu Di pointed to his nose and yelled at him: "What about me? Don't I have to worry about my life or death?"

There is a strange atmosphere in the bar today.

Wu Qi muttered in his heart while bartending for the guests.

In his eyes, guests are divided into two types: normal and abnormal. The normal one comes here to drink, dance, take drugs, fall in love, and engage in pornography. The abnormal one may make all kinds of incomprehensible behaviors. For example, the guest in the corner next to him looks really weird.

The woman with heavy make-up and scantily clad clothes, at first glance, was engaged in "that" occupation, but she refused to approach several "clients" who seemed to be wealthy, and now took the initiative to sit down with a man dressed like a migrant worker. When they were together, they didn't know what they were saying, rubbing shoulders and arms, and their expressions were very intimate.

The guest in front of Wu Qi clearly ordered a glass of white wine, but after a while, he turned a blind eye to the wine glass Wu Qi placed in front of him, and instead snatched a cocktail that Wu Qi was preparing for other guests and left. After walking around the bar for a long time, he also got to the table of the "peasant worker" and sat down on the "peasant worker"'s shoulder.

After a while, a big name brand with a "outer package" worth more than 100,000 walked into the bar. He didn't even look at the excitement around him. Opposite the "Migrant Worker", the large diamond ring on his hand banged on the table, and he said something impassioned to the migrant worker.

A migrant worker also has such great charm? When three or four other girls in beautiful dress walked up to the migrant worker and spoke to him very intimately, Wu Qi couldn't help muttering in his heart.

Next, when another person walked past the bar and walked to the corner where a large group of people surrounded a citizen, Wu Qi's curiosity was completely aroused. Because even though it was in a dimly lit bar, Wu Qi still recognized the person who had just passed by - the idol superstar Luo Tian. A big star like him, without makeup or sunglasses, came to this third-rate bar with no valet behind him, and surrounded a migrant worker with a group of "girls", a rich man, and a popular face. Whispering, anyone who sees this situation will be curious and want to know the truth. I can't blame me for being too curious... Wu Qi comforted himself like this, seeing that there were not many customers, and slipped out from behind the bar.

"Lu Jiu, you can just do it. It won't hurt you if you say it. If you don't say it... hum... You don't give me face, right?" Migrant Worker", blowing air into his ears, his voice was delicate, but the content of what he said didn't quite match her expression.

"Migrant workers" dodged to the side and said with a bitter face: "I really don't know, don't ask me, I'm not familiar with them, you should ask Lin Rui and Nan Yu. "

The crowd sitting on the other side of him pressed his shoulders so hard that his **** that had been "off the ground" suddenly fell back: "We don't know how they know more than you! But Who dares to ask them? The nine-tailed fox surnamed Bai has already said something. Anyone who dares to provoke Lin Rui will wait for them to denounce them from the country of Qingqiu. What kind of monsters entered the hospital in Nanyu? Don't you know what's going to happen? What's more, there's another one in there... Anyway, don't ask who you ask? Tell the truth and stop playing tricks with us."

It's not just bullying the soft and fearing the tough, Lin Rui and Nan Yu can't afford to offend them, so they came to bully me, an honest person, Lu Jiu muttered softly.

"What are you muttering about there? Say it, say it!"

"Yes, dear little deer, just tell us..."

"Brother Lu (Ge Ge), tell me..."

"Lu Jiu, I have taken care of your business a lot over the years. You can count how much you have to buy from me! You won't be so loyal..."

"Lu Jiu, this is the concert ticket your uncle asked me for. If you don't tell me, I will tear it up and I won't give it to you. You can explain it to your uncle yourself."

"Everyone, don't tease me, I really don't know..." Lu Jiu put his head in his hands and begged for mercy, "You forgive me, you don't dare to ask about Liu Di and Huo'er, how dare I Don't worry? They won't tell me..."

"Who doesn't know that you are Liu Di's friend. Although he is terrible, he still has nothing to say to his friends."

"That's right, in order to accompany you to drink, Liu Di didn't even go to our date. Do you still know about him?"

"That's right, who doesn't know your pig farm in Lixin City? Actually, you are a nominal boss. The real boss behind the scenes is Zhou Ying, Huo'er is the chairman, and you can be regarded as an employee who works for them. , will you know about the boss?"

"I'm wronged... That pig farm was really built by me, brick by brick..." Lu Jiu shouted loudly, seeing that he couldn't explain clearly to them.

At this time, Luo Tian shoved the ticket in his hand into his hand and said, "Actually, think about it for yourself, we are in the same situation as you, they are not here or something has happened, and we usually go with them. It will definitely be affected too. Don't forget, there are a lot of guys who don't like us on weekdays, but they can't bear it because of their face. If something happens to them, you say that Will the enemy take the opportunity to attack us? Do you have any news to tell everyone to prepare, don't hide it, do we still lose your benefits?"

The public face also said: "Your uncle Lu is famous for his life and fear of death for horses. He is well-informed. He has always been pulling Liu Di's tiger skin as a banner. He will have no news at all? He will not tell any news. You nephew? Stop messing with us."

Lu Jiu said with a bitter look: "My uncle won't let me talk nonsense."

When he said this, he was indirectly admitting that he had news that others did not know, and that others would not let him go. Confused, under their various means, an honest man like Lu Jiu finally couldn't stand it anymore and was pried open between his teeth.

"Liu, Liu Di, he...is really not in Lixin City..." He carefully wanted to stop talking. But once there is a crack in the levee, it is only a matter of time before the flood collapses, not to mention the opponent's attack like a surging river, and Lu Jiu's secrets will become more and more out of control.

"Huo'er, Gui'er also went with him... It's not that they won't come back, they will definitely come back, I don't know where to go, it seems that they went to Gui'er's hometown to find her relatives to treat Zhou Ying, Zhou Ying Not sick, not sick... He just lost most of his mana and can't become an adult... No, I didn't say... I didn't say anything... You forced me..."

The rich-looking man crossed Erlang's legs, lit a cigarette, and said, "You've already said this, do you think Liu Di and the others can still pretend that you didn't say anything? Let's start over from the beginning. Let’s make it clear at the end, we promise not to say it.”

Luo Tian patted Lu Jiu on the shoulder to comfort him and said, "Yeah, it's a death on the right. If you say it, you will be happy."

Lu Jiu resigned, took a gulp of wine and said, "Forget it, I'll tell you! Zhou Ying had some nerves a few days ago, but he didn't bring fire with a nine-tailed fox. Going to fight, and the result was that the nine-tailed fox was killed by him. , I heard that he can deal with a nine-tailed fox by himself, and I have a feeling of admiration for him.), but he himself was seriously injured, and his cultivation was greatly reduced, and now he is not a man. Liu Di and Huo'er want to I went with Gui'er to a relative's house to help Zhou Ying find a kind of elixir that can restore mana, so I'm not in Lixin City now. And Zhou Ying went to hide at Nanyu's place - you know, usually Huo'er, How many enemies Liu Di has provoked, all of them staring at Zhou Ying. My uncle knows so much, we have decided to go back to our hometown to hide for a while, so you can figure it out for yourself. " After he finished speaking, he stood up and hurried away.

The rest of the people looked at each other in dismay. They were all quick-witted monsters. From the fact that Liu Di, Zhou Ying, and other most powerful guys in Lixin City were not coming and going normally, it was inferred that something had happened. , so he found Lu Jiu, the well-informed nephew of Lu Weima (Lu Weima is very cunning, it is difficult to get words out of his mouth). What I didn't expect to hear at the end was such an amazing news.

After being silent for a long time, Luo Tian took the lead to say: "It's time for my concert tour to start. I think the first stop will start from Southeast Asia. If you have time, come and join us! I'll go first, and there are others. There are so many things to prepare for.”

The big man nodded after he left: "There has been a problem with wool acquisition in Australia recently. I should go and see it myself. I don't feel relieved when the business is handed over to my subordinates... Hehe, please come back and ask everyone. Tea..."

Several women bit their ears and said together: "We've long wanted to go skiing in Switzerland, and this time we just went together, there are so many people, giggle giggle..."

The public did not care about whether Switzerland could ski this season, and watched the women who promised to bring him Swiss gifts to leave. When he was alone, he held the cup and muttered to himself: "Every one of them runs quite fast, but Zhou Ying is the most unsafe time, even those of you who are usually sheltered under his wings. They all run away, don't care about him, just rely on Nan Yu to protect him, okay... Hey, human, you come out, settle the bill, and I will pay for their club."

When Wu Qi saw that the eavesdropping was discovered, he walked out embarrassedly.

Anyway, he remembered all the inexplicable words just now in his mind. With the golden signboard of the idol superstar Luo Tian, ​​he should be able to sell it for a good price to those journalists who specialize in digging the privacy of celebrities. .

The public looked at him with a stern look. Wu Qi looked back fearlessly. Who is afraid of who? You dare to say it in public, and you are afraid that I will not hear it? Anyway, I've already heard it in my ears, can you still dig it out of my head?

Dazhong frowned and thought for a while, and said, "I'm so busy talking that I don't even have the least vigilance. Fortunately, I'm a human being. If... how should I deal with you? Forget it, I really don't have it now. Eat something in the mood."

Wu Qi was dazed by his words, but saw the public face reaching out and pressing his forehead. Wu Qi couldn't dodge, only to feel the other's fingers as hot as coals, his head was aching, and his brain seemed to be stuffed with a fire, and he suddenly screamed and fell to the ground.

In the early morning, when the bar was closed and the staff began to clean up, they dragged out Wu Qi, who had been missing for most of the night, from under the sofa. Wu Qi was shaken awake by his colleagues who smelled of alcohol, only to feel that his head hurts badly, just like after a usual hangover. As for how he drank so much, how he got under the sofa, or even what he did last night, he couldn't remember at all.

Quan Xian'er had a good harvest today.

The total amount for selling pearls is about 30,000 yuan, plus some messy remuneration, one day's income exceeds 40,000 yuan, which is worth celebrating. So she walked briskly on the street, ready to buy some small things for no more than ten yuan to comfort herself.

Quan Xian'er's tears can be turned into pearls. The quality of those pearls is better than those cultivated from shells. But although she likes money, she doesn't want to cry intentionally to make herself cry. The pearls sold in the past are usually accumulated after a little sadness, and the number is not very large. A few days ago, Gui'er recommended a lot of idol dramas to her, and the joys and sorrows in them deceived her a lot of tears, and also made her income a lot higher.

"Huh..." While thinking about the money in his pocket and smirking, Quan Xian'er wandered around the door of this video store for a long time, and finally made up his mind. I'll borrow it from Rose to see it and buy it myself. These TV shows are too expensive. She made up her mind and turned around, but saw two familiar figures, walking in the crowd with a large package on their back. These two are really weird, doing weird things all the time.

"Brother Zhang, Sister-in-law Zhang." Quan Xian'er walked over briskly, reaching out from behind to pat each other on the shoulders.

Who knew that this common method of meeting acquaintances to say hello had an earth-shattering effect on these two people. They both let out a scream, jumped ten meters high, and then turned around and assumed an attacking stance. .

Izumi Xian said and the surrounding humans who witnessed this scene were all stunned on the spot, and the entire street appeared to be in a state of stagnation.

When the old man Zhang and his wife saw Quan Xian'er behind them, they also opened their mouths wide, and took a long time to say with a sigh of relief, "It turned out to be you. You scared us to death. At this time, people will be scared to death."

Quan Xian'er asked in confusion: "What time is this? Where are you going? Why are you still carrying luggage? Are you going to move?"

When old man Zhang saw that the humans around him had woken up from surprise, they all began to discuss whether the pair of old men and women who were over fifty years old had really jumped more than ten meters just now.

Old man Zhang knew that this was not the place to talk, so he mysteriously pulled Quan Xian'er and slipped into a secluded alley before the crowd made a bigger commotion. He looked around ruthlessly and asked his wife to guard the alley. Then he lowered his voice and said to Quan Xian'er, "Don't you know? Something big happened!"

Affected by their couple's strange behavior, Quan Xian'er involuntarily lowered his voice and asked mysteriously, "What happened? Is there another monster coming to **** that pure orb? It's better to push it on Liu Di. Otherwise, simply tell the other party the truth, so as not to suffer the penalty in the face." Quan Xian'er did not understand their behavior of deceiving people for their own face, and persuaded them with good words.

"That's not the case!" The old man Zhang used his gesture to strengthen his tone, "Yes..." He glanced around again, the safety signal sent by the street wife, after confirming that there were no eavesdroppers around, he put the The voice was pressed down again and said: "It's Liu Di, Zhou Ying and the others that have an accident..."

What happened to Liu Di and Zhou Ying? Quan Xian'er blinked for a long time before thinking about it.

What happened to Liu Di and Zhou Ying in Lixin City meant that even Quan Xianer, a "sea creature" who lived outside the city, knew. "But who dares to provoke them? How could something happen to them? What happened?" Liu Di and Quan Xian'er were considered "confidants in wine", so Quan Xian'er still cared about him to some extent.

"They..." After scouting the surroundings again, Old Man Zhang said almost lying on Quan Xian'er's ear, "Sometimes Zhou Ying had some kind of madness, and ran to provoke a nine-tailed fox— Isn't it enough for him to have Gui'er and Nanyu? He is still messing around with flowers? (Quan Xian'er nodded vigorously) And what's even more outrageous is that he went to fight with others before he brought fire, and was beaten back to his original shape by others, and now he has changed Not an adult anymore. Liu Di and Huo’er learned that Gui’er had a relative who had a kind of elixir that could help him recover, and they were planning to follow Gui’er to her hometown, whether to buy, cheat, rob, or steal, Anyway, we have to get it no matter what. Think about it, Zhou Ying is like now, Liu Di and Huo'er are not here, isn't Lixin City going to be in chaos soon! Our two old barks can't stand the toss. No, I'm going to hide in the mountains. I kindly advise you, you'd better stay in the sea recently and don't come out."

The Zhang couple conveyed their eyes and disappeared at the end of the street, Quan Xian'er frowned for a long time.

Due to the nature of her race, as long as she does not show hostility first, the monsters she encounters will not be hostile or wary of her, so the impending chaos among the monsters in Lixin City has little to do with her. However, the chaos among the monsters is likely to affect human life, and it is also possible that it may affect myself, who mainly makes money from humans. Forget it, one more thing is worse than one less thing. Anyway, I have earned a lot recently, so I should take a vacation. Quan Xian'er turned around and walked back to the door of the video store where she had wandered before. She gritted her teeth and endured the distress and rented a few TV series before walking slowly towards the sea on the side of the city.

After Quan Xian'er turned the corner, a man jumped out from under the sewer cover (without being seen by the surrounding humans, of course). With a sneer at the corner of his mouth, he said to himself, "Zhou Ying... hum, you have today too? It's great that Liu Di and the dead one are not here... I'll think about it, Zhou Ying is here at this time. I will hide and be a tortoise, right? Will I go? A monk temple or a hospital? There will never be such a good opportunity again. ...hey...Zhou Ying..."

The sneer he couldn't help letting out while he was thinking made the passersby look at him and detour. The man also seemed to have an intuition about the atmosphere around him. He lowered his head and walked into a shop. Between the clerks and customers who were not paying attention, he had disappeared.

Feeling that the temperature in the room was a little high, Zhou Ying, who was sitting in the sun, subconsciously called out, "Huo'er." But after shouting, she realized that Huo'er had already gone to Qingyao Mountain with Liu Di and Gui'er. , not by his side at all. A strange man appeared in the room. He was staring at Zhou Ying with a "burning" light in his eyes. This was probably why Zhou Ying felt that the temperature in the room had risen, right?

"Yingmei, I'm here to seek revenge for you!" With a roar that he had heard a lot in the past few days, the man rushed towards Zhou Ying.

Zhou Ying's figure disappeared instantly, and then appeared on the other side of the room along the range of the sun shining in the room.

He looked at the man, and couldn't find any information about it in his memory. Maybe Huo'er ate his relatives, Liu Di robbed his girlfriend, and he took him when he was in the car. Money, etc., in short, is this kind of reason? The deaths of Feng Wenyuan and Yue Ronghuan were still revolving in his mind, and Huo'er was not here. He didn't need to think about the child's taste, so he didn't have any intention of killing now, just kept talking to this man. Circle in circles, dodging the other's stormy attacks.

"Yingmei, there's a kind of man you're fighting with me, you'll just run away!" The man yelled at Zhou Ying. This phantom kept using the method of dissipating and condensing to avoid his attacks again and again, so that his anger was empty and could not find a place to vent. A real sword fight. The news that Dilang and Bifang are not in Lixin City has spread to the well-informed people and demons in Lixin City. This is the best time for revenge and grievances. The target of revenge is naturally Bifang's adoptive father. , Diwolf's friend, the shadow ghost Zhou Yinglai who usually helps Zhou Yinghao.

The man doesn't know if anyone has been looking for Zhou Ying before him these days. Anyway, he knows that even if they did, they would not be successful. He was grateful for the failure of these people, because it gave him the opportunity to avenge his family in person, but it also made him vigilant in every way. Let's do it, otherwise, how could Earth Wolf Bifang still be safe and sound after so many days?

However, he would not miss this golden opportunity, so he still took the risk of finding the door.

Zhou Ying disappeared again and then appeared on the other side of the room, quietly waiting for the man's next attack.

Of course the man wouldn't know. Now Zhou Ying has only this trick to use for self-defense. If the man casts spells recklessly, Zhou Ying will continue to dissipate into shadows like this, and he will not be able to escape him. attacked. But this man didn't want to make things bigger according to the normal thinking of the monsters, and it was also Zhou Ying's prestige. He had to think about it a lot, but he exaggerated Zhou Ying's ability to a certain extent.

Finally, the man got tired of Zhou Ying who was chasing and escaping. His attacks became more and more chaotic, but it was wrong. This kind of attack was the best way to deal with Zhou Ying. Reluctantly avoid being hit. After a few times, the man also discovered this method, and began to randomly release spells in the room, smashing the furniture into all directions.

Zhou Ying didn't seem to be in a hurry about the fact that he was in trouble. Although he was almost hit several times, he still followed his own pace, dissipating, condensing, dissipating, condensing, and confounded that hateful monster. more irritable. When one of his attacks finally knocked Zhou Ying over, he couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhou Ying who fell in the corner of the house: "Yingmei, you have today too, let you taste what it's like to be bullied!" Lean forward.

At the moment when his hand was about to catch Zhou Ying, the four corners of the room suddenly began to flash, and then a three-dimensional formation appeared in the room. The monster screamed badly in his heart, but it was too late, the formation suddenly contracted, trapping him inside, and then several red lights flashed, turning the whole room into the color of blood, waiting for the light Converging, the room was restored to its original state. In addition to the pieces of furniture, there was a pinch of ashes on the ground.

Zhou Ying was slightly injured.

He finds it strange that he has begun to not want to kill. He clearly knew that the other party was going to kill him, and it was the right choice to start the formation left by Liu Di and Huo'er at the beginning, but he insisted on delaying his injury~IndoMTL.com~ Injuries are unnecessary, Zhou Ying thought.

"Zhou Ying, are you alright?" Lin Rui did not know when he got into the house through the window, "Is there another enemy? How many times can the formation left by Huo'er be used?"

"Seven times." This formation has been used seven times, and there are still half of them.

"They have only been gone for four days, and seven enemies have come to the door!" Lin Rui's eyes widened, "The news of this place is really not passing fast. I said Zhou Ying, you just Go to Nanyu to hide. This formation will soon be useless, and if you encounter a powerful opponent, it may not be so easy to use." He thought for a while and added, "I'm not here because of this. There are too many monsters going in and out, so I advise you for fear of affecting my mother's safety!"

Zhou Ying thought for a while and said, "I want to stay here for a while."

"Hmph, the guy who doesn't listen to me! If you didn't listen to me..." Lin Rui shook his head unhappily, "I know you miss Huo'er, but you don't have to act like he won't come back in the future. Well..." he muttered and walked away.

Zhou Ying raised his head and said firmly, "Huo'er will come back!" By then, Lin Rui had already left. Zhou Ying looked at the empty room and sat back in the position he was used to. But after sitting in front of the window for a while, I couldn't help but get up and go around the house again. A home without Huo'er is naturally empty. Since the day Huo'er was born, it has been living by Zhou Ying's side. Their father and son have never been separated for more than three days, but now it has gone so far, and I don't know When will Zhou Ying come back, Zhou Ying feels very uncomfortable when he thinks of this.
