Chapter 77: Because(1/2)
The night was not very quiet, but rather noisy. Some people couldn't stand the loneliness of sleeping in the open and hummed a song. When the moon reached the middle, the singing also disappeared.
Chang Yufeng kept her eyes closed, not looking around, and just rested against the pillar of the pavilion. The song was not pleasant to listen to, it was just a soft howl that seemed to come from a deep feeling.
Yi Zhi Yi Zhi carries my thoughts.
Can the branches and buds of the Summer Palace remember my thoughts?
I have been on the road these days, and when I heard this song, I understood a little bit. People who are homesick are the same no matter from all over the world.
He did not look at the moon. He lowered his head and felt a little tired. He was surrounded by people who had no way to go home or stay in a hotel.
There is quite a bit of sympathy for each other.
My heart can't calm down.
I don’t have random thoughts, but it’s hard to be quiet.
The moonlight is very bright, and he can feel it, but he somewhat hopes that there is no moon at this time. When it is dark, this Summer Palace is given. No matter how beautiful the branches and buds intersect, it is difficult to see them again, so he will not have random thoughts.
Alright.
Someone got up and went to relieve himself. When passing Chang Yufeng, a gust of wind blew on Chang Yufeng's body, which smelled of alcohol.
When he came back, Chang Yufeng was still awake. He didn't know what he was thinking in his head, and it seemed that he was completely blank, thinking of nothing.
This feeling is very strange. There is a small feeling in my head. I can't remember anything, there is nothing, and it is empty.
There is no dream. After being tired, I am so awake.
squeak……
squeak--
squeak!
It's like a mouse is barking.
It was definitely not an ordinary mouse, but I still don’t know what kind it was and whether it would be dangerous.
Chang Yufeng opened his eyes and looked over in search of the sound. The night watchman looked at him without surprise and glanced left and right.
"There are rats..." Chang Yufeng said in a low voice.
"Yes, there are rats." The night watchman put a piece of firewood into the bonfire and poked it to make more sparks grow.
"What? You can't sleep?" The night watchman once looked at Chang Yufeng and said with interest: "Is this your first time spending the night outside?"
"That's right."
"That wouldn't be the first time."
"Huh? I have the final say... It should be said that this is the first time." Chang Yufeng didn't understand his brain circuit, so he stood up and gently sat next to the fire.
This fire is not because of the cold border between the Principality and the Empire, but to drive away ferocious beasts and magical beasts. After all, only a few ferocious beasts and magical beasts will actively attack humans.
"If you hesitate, it must be the opposite." The night watchman used his spiritual power to direct the smoke from the firewood he just put in to a place where no one was around.
"So you can think of it this way..." Chang Yufeng watched the firewood fluttering vigorously with the breeze.
"Of course, you are still young, so you probably don't understand." The night watchman put his hands on his knees, with blue spiritual power flowing through his body.
The night watchman looks very white under the moonlight, and the fiery yellow light next to it creates a half-white and half-yellow wonder.
He is a bit naive and can't see clearly, but his voice sounds mature.
"Then...why don't I understand? Is it because of my age?" His words aroused Chang Yufeng's interest. This night watchman seems to be very interesting and can guess what others are thinking?
"Of course it's not just about age, it's also about mind." The night watchman closed his eyes as if in meditation, sat in a very upright cultivation posture, and allowed the blue spiritual power to pass through.
It stands to reason that cultivators do not need that much sleep, so it is reasonable to come to watch the night. Judging from the current situation, the slowly flowing blue light is like crystal star points. This person should be cultivating the spiritual power of the general public.
Condensation skills, and the strength can only be below the gold level.
"How do you say that?" Chang Yufeng looked at the bonfire, and the sparks that burst out were red and scorching.
"Although it is said that the younger the age, the harder it is to mature mentally. This is related to the fact that they have not experienced many things. Therefore, no matter how you say it, it makes sense, because you don't need to be serious with them, as long as their ideas
You can tell at a glance. If you are hesitant to tell others that this is your first time spending the night in the wild, it means you have something you don't want to tell others. If you have something you don't want to tell others, it's very likely.
It’s not a good thing. What kind of thing would someone be unwilling to tell others when sleeping outdoors for the first time? If so, it must not be the first time.” The night watchman suddenly grabbed his hand towards the south, and the wind followed him.
He left with his hand, raising a thin layer of dust on the ground. The bonfire also flickered and was still burning brightly.
Suddenly, a red mouse squeaked in his hand, and its red fur stood straight up like arrows, but when the night watchman held it hard, it withered instantly.
It screamed and screamed, as if begging for mercy.
"I don't quite understand." Chang Yufeng looked quietly at the rat caught by the night watchman. It was a rat demon.
Monsters mostly eat people without spitting out their bones.
There are monsters on this border, which means that people have died on a large scale here, and the souls of the dead people are unwilling to go to the next life, and their resentment has formed monsters.
Of course, this is just the reason for the formation of monsters. There are all kinds of strange ways to become monsters, so monsters and humans must be separated.
Demon refers to spirit, monster, spirit and soul.
Legend has it that there is a kingdom of ten thousand monsters, which shelters all monsters. They are not isolated from the spiritual world, but are in a certain "corner" of the spiritual world, with no freedom.
Of course, it is not that there is no freedom. Dawang and Dahuang are monsters. They walk around in the rivers and lakes every day and are very happy. No one may restrict their freedom. However, if someone says that she is a monster and harms humans, she will most likely be punished.
Rectify the law on the spot.
It’s not that people are biased against monsters, it’s just that most monsters treat humans as food, so you can’t be biased against them.
In a war-torn era where monsters abound, there aren't necessarily many good people, let alone many good monsters.
"I said, it doesn't matter if you don't understand." The night watchman grabbed the subdued rat demon. The rat stopped moving. The night watchman squeezed him hard, and the blue spiritual power was like a flame burning the rat demon.
, the rat demon was burned by the flames and jumped up and down in the hands of the night watchman, but it couldn't break free.
Squeak!
Squeak!
Squeak!
The sound was not very loud, and Chang Yufeng could only hear it clearly when he was close to the night watchman.
Chang Yufeng looked at the painful rat demon and couldn't bear it. Just as he was about to speak, the rat demon turned into red smoke and disappeared in the blue flames.
"What? Feeling distressed?" The night watchman seemed very happy. He didn't look at Chang Yufeng, but just clapped his hands, and the blue flame disappeared.
The work of vigil is boring, but it is actually a good fun. But this fun is very short-lived and disappears all of a sudden.
"No...it's not..." Chang Yufeng touched his head. The temperature of the bonfire was very high, almost burning.
"You are a child, you are telling the truth." The night watchman looked at him and lightly threw a small thing next to him: "Normally, it is good for children to have compassion when they see small animals.
But you have to use it in the right place, that’s a rat demon, and it’s here to eat children.”
Chang Yufeng picked up the thing, it was an orange.
Red bonfires, red oranges, the moon behind the dark clouds, seems to be covered with dusk.
"Rat demon..." Chang Yufeng said this word.
Of course he knew it was a rat demon.
"Yes, the rat demon is also an evil creature. It is here to blatantly smell the smell of children. It will not be justified until it dies." The night watchman divided the oranges into pieces and put them into his mouth one by one.
Send it away, and carefully separate the white silk sacs.
Chang Yufeng lowered his head and looked at the orange.
This is not a case of throwing away or killing a child's animal and then giving him a candy.
Rather, it is about the question of who will live and who will die.
He has thought about it many times, as if he felt pity inadvertently, as long as the rat demon stops messing around and eating people, it will not die...
is that so?
Is it really?
What if that rat had eaten a human? Do you know?
Who deserves to die? As a demon, you deserve to die.
Yeah?
"Don't think that uncle and I are heartless. Monsters are very dangerous to humans. They are more bullying and afraid of the tough than humans themselves. You would never imagine what some adults today would do. The same goes for monsters. No one can
You know whether they will eat you next second." The night watchman seemed to comfort Chang Yufeng. In his opinion, Chang Yufeng, who lowered his head, was a little depressed. That was naturally because he had killed the very-looking one.
It's a cute rat demon, and it looks like it was burned alive. For children, the twisted rat's movements are indeed a bit cruel.
And extremely cruel.
It will make them feel that the uncle in front of them is unwillful and even hostile.
He explained: "Don't think your uncle is cruel. If you don't kill him, a child might be eaten today. If that child is you, you will definitely thank me for my actions today."
Chang Yufeng shook his head, said nothing, and nodded.
