134, Chapter 134
Yuan Yuanyuan could tell at a glance that the man in red was probably going out to attend the Hundred Demons Festival... Why was she so sure? Because the man in red always wore a red sweater all year round, and he basically never changed the style.
So he was dressed so formally all of a sudden, he must be going out to attend something important.
Just like her...
After Yuan Yuanyuan watched the man in red in the comic go out, Faning sat alone in the room in a daze. After he was in a daze for a while, he suddenly thought why he didn't go out to take a look? Although he was a newcomer and didn't know anything, he didn't need to go far, just walk around a few times nearby.
Then Faning went out and began to walk aimlessly on the street, watching the unique New Year customs of the nearby monsters.
[Faning looked at the monsters around him, who were dressed in all kinds of strange ways. They were wearing solemn and luxurious clothes, holding small lights or some strange things in their hands, and wandering on the street. 】
【He thought it was a bit strange... Generally speaking, it was very different from humans, so naturally he would feel a little uncomfortable. 】
【But generally speaking, it was still very interesting. He looked up at the sky and watched a long dragon-like team passing in front of him. 】
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the picture in the comics. It was indeed quite exciting, at least more exciting than she had imagined.
Although she wanted to see what the Hundred Demons Festival looked like, she was floating in the sky the whole first day of the Hundred Demons Festival and didn't see anything. Now seeing it from the comics, she still fulfilled her wish a little.
The screen was full of gold, blue and purple, which was indeed more attractive than a bright red. It looked like a painter spilled the paint and smeared countless paints on the black and gray background.
Yuan Yuanyuan liked this kind of picture very much. Although she has always been more like a human, in this case, she still had to say that monsters are much better than humans in this regard.
They are born to suit those gorgeous colors.
[Fanning stared at the sky in a daze. He didn't know who was sitting in the cars flying in the sky. He just felt that it would be a very cool and domineering scene to sit in the cars and overlook the city. ]
[In those cars sat big monsters. Fanning had heard that there would be many monsters coming tonight. He couldn't help but imagine how gorgeous the monsters sitting in them would be. ]
...Bullshit.
Yuan Yuanyuan was very upset.
Look, this is the result of the information asymmetry between monsters and humans... You can't see a ghost sitting in there, you can only see a bunch of car exhaust.
In fact, there are only car exhausts to see... She seriously suspected that the blue-purple thing was actually the exhaust of the carriage.
But the car was still very comfortable. Yuan Yuanyuan had to tell the truth. In addition to this, the snacks provided were delicious and the tea was delicious.
Yuan Yuanyuan felt that she could see the effect of the thunder drama by watching this... that is, the plot itself is not important, the essence is to complain.
She began to secretly wonder how much she would complain after reading today's update.
[Fanning looked up at the sky, and he suddenly felt incredible. ]
[He thought of countless things in his mind, and one of the things that concerned him the most was how his predecessors defeated these proud sons of heaven? ]
[That era was not like today, where you can fly in the sky by plane, or use cannons and tanks to fight... that is, you have to fight with your flesh and blood. ]
Liu An covered his face silently.
Okay... why even this kind of thing is drawn?
This is what he complained about in his mind when he went to see Tang Shi's Night Parade of One Hundred Demons that day... In fact, he was watching it with great interest while saying that it was unscientific.
After all, he didn't go out at all on the day of the Hundred Demons Festival, but Ji Qiu might have done it for convenience, or it might have been to help him cover up his identity, so he simply drew his thoughts when he went out that day.
But this question... he thought it was actually quite easy to answer. It was nothing more than that humans were more courageous... Didn't they just fight against the US and aid Korea?
Liu An was thinking and thinking, and suddenly he was lost in thought. He turned his head and looked at Yuan Yuanyuan sitting on the chair with a very subtle expression on her face.
"He" had a subtle expression that could not be described. Anyway, the distribution of muscles on her face was a little wrong, like laughing and crying.
"What's wrong, boss?" Liu An asked.
"...No, nothing." Yuan Yuanyuan said.
She found that Ji Qiu really liked to insert some personal opinions in the comics... Many of these personal opinions were described by the protagonist's psychological activities.
[To be honest, I have been using it recently, both Android and Apple are available. ]
After all, for readers, this world of monsters is seen through Faning's eyes, and Faning has a certain freshness to this world, just like the readers themselves.
However, in the process of popularizing the world of monsters... Ji Qiu especially likes to insert personal opinions, and many of these personal opinions are personal opinions related to the history of monsters.
But there is no way, right! If you want to learn about a completely unfamiliar place, in addition to understanding its current situation, you will also get to know some of its history.
——So here comes the point, what is the history of monsters?
Yuan Yuanyuan herself was not very clear about those things in the long, long time ago, but she still knew the history of monsters in modern times.
It cannot be separated from a few key words - war, blood, and army.
Ji Qiu's arrangement in this regard is quite clever. The background he set up is exactly the war of that year, and even the big boss and the male supporting role are characters in the war of that year.
So this way of telling the story is like listening to an ancient and mysterious story from the grandfather's generation, and it is a bit like Naruto's discovery of the awesome identities of [his father], [his mother], [master], [master's gay friend], [senior brother], [senior brother's gay friend], [his own gay friend], and [himself] while running for village chief...
For example, Faning... This time he discovered the awesome identity of the boss he was about to face.
Yes, it's Yuan.
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the comics with dead eyes, thinking to himself that I sit in the car all day, not listening to the outside world, and just want to go home and sleep, what can you see?
This time, the incident actually started when Faning suddenly thought of what he had learned in the sect.
…
【While Faning was walking on the street, he suddenly remembered such a thing. 】
【This was something he learned when he was still in Sanqing, and it was a story about monsters and humans. 】
【Legend has it that when the war was fought, humans had a complete upper hand at the beginning. During that time, the monsters suffered a lot of casualties, so their morale was always low. 】
【However, just when humans wanted to hold a celebration ceremony, a sudden action broke their plan. 】
【It was a completely unexpected Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, and it was also the most famous Night Parade of One Hundred Demons in the history of monsters. 】
【It was a Night Parade of One Hundred Demons organized by an army among the monsters, led by countless big monsters. They led an arrogant and powerful monster army, passed the edge of the battle line, and then flew back. Those who saw that scene that day will never forget that scene for the rest of their lives. 】
【On that day, humans did not know the meaning of this action, but were simply shocked by the spectacular scene. When the monsters on the battlefield suddenly began to gain morale, they finally understood that there was a deeper meaning behind this action. 】
【It was like a ritual between monsters, and monsters used it to enhance cohesion and combat effectiveness. 】
【After that, the term "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" was finally taken seriously by humans. 】
Yuan Yuanyuan silently took out her little notebook.
Then she began to take notes frantically in "Monster Records".
Write it down, write it down! Look at Ji Qiu's ability to express himself, it can be written as a definition in a textbook.
【Fanning walked on the street, and he saw many people wearing masks and hoods on the street. 】
【Their masks were all embroidered with a newborn moon, which looked like a mask. 】
【"What are they...doing?" Faning asked an acquaintance nearby. He knew that these were the monsters responsible for security, but the fact that so many of them came at once...still made him wonder. 】
【"They?" said the old man next to him, "They are here to protect this place...It's not very peaceful here recently." 】
【"Not very peaceful?" Faning felt nervous again after hearing this. 】
【He is now very afraid of not being peaceful...because if not being peaceful, his identity may be exposed. 】
【"What's wrong? Hasn't it been quite peaceful recently?"】
【"No way." The old man said, "Didn't we open the protective shield some time ago... It was not peaceful at that time. Recently, everyone wants to step on us. But this year, I heard that they brought a lot of big monsters. Didn't you see that the scene this year is much more lively than last year? They will go to the edge of the city for a walk."】
【"Sorry... I've only been here for a few months..." Faning said a little embarrassedly, "Which big monsters have been invited?"】
【The old man said, "Most of the big monsters in East City are here, and some secluded big monsters have also been dragged out... I heard that they also called a very powerful big man to shake up the scene."】
【"Big man?" Faning wondered, "Who is that big man?"】
【"Who knows? The higher-ups didn't say it. How can small monsters like us know? It's all for the other big monsters to see." The old man smiled. 】
【Faning scratched his head, thanked him, and turned away. 】
【He has been thinking all along the way... Who is this big shot? 】
No way...
When Yuan Yuanyuan saw this, she had a hunch for some reason...
She turned the page and saw a very spectacular team. Even if this team was drawn on paper, the momentum was still there.
It was indescribably majestic.
There were blue and purple lights around, and there were spots of silver light. In the majesty, this team was a little more mysterious.
Seeing this, Yuan Yuanyuan felt that it was not...
She thought to herself that it must not be... The place she went to that night was not so awesome. The whole journey was full of chanting. She stared at the wheels in a daze. Where did such a spectacular and luxurious scene come from? It was just like an emperor patrolling.
And when she turned another page, she suddenly saw someone in the car at the front of the team asking a question.
【"Where are we?"】
【"We're back in the city."】
The car's curtain was opened a little, and two people could be seen sitting there. The one asking the question was an old man, and there was another person sitting opposite him.
The car was burning with a faint blue light.
The light shone on the chin of the person opposite the old man, and a shadow was cast over his nose.
He had a furry white cape around his neck, which seemed to cover his entire body, but also made his skin look very white.
The old man lowered the car's curtain, and the scene inside the car flashed by and could no longer be seen.
