68, Chapter 68
Since that incident happened that day, Yuan Yuanyuan didn't go to that street for a whole week.
She hid at home, bought another notebook, and began to write things on it that no one except her could understand, and burned each book after writing.
But to be honest, she is no longer worried about her identity being exposed. Ji Qiu has been quite considerate so far. There have been several times when Ji Qiu personally helped Yuan Yuanyuan conceal her identity. She also saw that Ji Qiu didn't want her to reveal her identity.
With such an elusive big monster backing her up, Yuan Yuanyuan is more confident. At least she knows that before the plot develops to the later stage, her vest will not be exposed. As the little monster "Yuan Yuanyuan", she can still live a free and easy life.
Of course, even in the later stage, her identity may not be exposed... Unless the painter really can't paint, otherwise Yuan Yuanyuan thinks her vest is still very tight.
Just like that, a week later, Yuan Yuanyuan wanted to continue to be lazy, but the big monsters over there couldn't sit still, so they specially informed Yuan Yuanyuan through the small mirror that it was time to go to work... Yuan Yuanyuan had no choice, she was not a lazy person all year round, so she decided to go there after work in the evening.
She sat there and watched Siqun holding a long pen with very bright cinnabar on it, painting on a white porcelain bottle. Under his pen, a beautiful plum blossom gradually took shape.
Yuan Yuanyuan leaned over to watch for a long time, and finally whispered: "Qun'er... I didn't expect you to have this skill."
Siqun'er seemed to have not heard Yuan Yuanyuan's words, and still held the pen to paint. His posture of holding the pen was very beautiful, and he was the kind of person who knew the business. Yuan Yuanyuan secretly put her hands behind her back to learn it, and learned a chicken claw, and then secretly put her hands back.
She looked down at Siqun again.
Siqun was so serious for some reason. When he took the pen, his face was not shy at all. He was very serious. His beautiful eyes were staring at the bottle without any slackness.
Although Siqun was usually very shy, like a little girl, once he was serious about something, he was very serious and didn't look effeminate at all.
Yuan Yuanyuan was a little suspicious that if a female hooligan came at this time, Siqun would not run away...
After a while, he finished painting. A very beautiful plum blossom appeared on the bottle, lifelike. He blew on the bottle, put it aside, and then turned around to see Yuan Yuanyuan who was next to him. Within a second, his face turned red again.
... Yuan Yuanyuan took two steps back. Although Siqun had worked with Yuan Yuanyuan for such a long time, he was still a little shy. Yuan Yuanyuan felt that he might never be able to talk to her openly.
Looking at Siqun who had become shy again, Yuan Yuanyuan had an inexplicable idea in her mind...
If I find him something to do anytime and anywhere...will he always have such a serious expression?
Poof...
Yuan Yuanyuan didn't know why she burst out first. She turned around and walked out with the wine. She passed by a few little monsters. Those little monsters flew onto her skirt, lying on it, or pulling her skirt.
She found that these little monsters who usually flew around and lit the lights liked bright colors, especially her red skirt, so every time she walked in the corridor, there was always a group of little monsters crawling under her skirt, causing her to wear safety pants recently.
When she arrived at the guest's door, she lifted her skirt and shook off the messy little monsters hanging on it. She pulled down the stubborn ones with their heads pulled down, then knocked on the door gently and said softly, "Hello, is Lord Yin in there? I am Hongxiu, the wine server in the tavern."
The room was quiet for a while, and then a voice came out, "Come in."
Yuan Yuanyuan opened the door with the wine, then pushed the door closed with her backhand, walked to the table with her head down, and brought the messy things on the tray up.
She lowered her head when serving the wine, but Yuan Yuanyuan was still very active. The guests in the room were talking about something, so she listened to a sentence or two.
"The situation at Sanqing Taoist Temple has been very unstable recently..."
"I heard that they called many people over, and several famous Taoist sects have sent people to support them."
"Hey, do they still need support? Isn't their sect the most popular sect recently?"
"Hey, when I mention this, I remember, does anyone know who Faning is? Sanqing Taoist Temple has kept him hidden tightly, and no one knows what his real name is."
"Don't gloat over others' misfortunes... If that big monster really comes out, we may not be safe here..."
Yuan Yuanyuan put all the things on the tray on the table, then added some incense to the incense burner in the corner, picked up the tray, and walked out with her head down, not daring to raise her head from beginning to end.
From what they said... Sanqing Taoist Temple probably felt that it couldn't handle it alone, so it called a lot of friendly forces for support.
And it was just as she thought... Faning's vest hadn't really been exposed yet. Yuan Yuanyuan felt that this was not only the credit of his sect, but also the credit of Ji Qiu.
She even had another idea now. She felt... maybe even the Taoist priests didn't know who this "Fa Ning" was. Ji Qiu helped hide all this. After all, she used this method here. It was concealed in an incredible way. Now no one knows who this "Yuan" is. He was fooled around. Maybe the protagonist over there has an even more incredible way of concealing it...
The top ten in the Taoist competition were picked out, but the tenth place was a little girl, which had nothing to do with Faning. The outside world was wondering where the real Faning had gone, but Yuan Yuanyuan felt that there was something weird about that little girl.
But she didn't bother to verify these things herself. After all, they were too far away, and she, a monster, didn't know how to verify them.
On this day, the weather was very good. It was sunny and cloudless. Yuan Yuanyuan got up from the table, wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, looked at the weather outside, walked over and opened the door.
She had a half-finished piece of clothing on her hand. The collar and the like were all done, but the only thing that wasn't done was the buttons.
Clothes stores are always open at night, but everyone knows that at night... this is the baby area, which is not like her situation at all. There are not even any big monsters here that are a little bit fierce, they are basically all children. , there are not many people walking on the street at night, not even the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts comes here.
So the night here... was very peaceful. That day was definitely an accident.
Yuan Yuanyuan's shop has never been open during the day, so it has been more than a month and no serious customers have come to the door. Today is the first time she has opened the door.
She sat on the chair, looked at the rhino horn from that day, took out a bunch of tools, and wanted to grind it into buttons and sew them on her clothes...
"Hey? When did a store open here?" Gradually, the monsters on the street noticed this store. When they usually come here, the door is closed. They thought there was no one. This is The first time I saw the door open.
"Hello, is there anyone inside?" A monster came in and took a look.
...Then he saw a man in black clothes, a good-looking man who was a bit scary, sitting in the shadows, holding an awl in his hand, and smashing a white thing in his hand...
"Pah, pah..."
A very strong demonic aura could be smelled on that white thing. It looked like it was not an ordinary material. It was probably some part of a demon's body.
When the owner of the store heard the voice, he slowly raised his head, looked at the person at the door, and said in a very low voice, "Ah... hello, may I ask, what do you want to buy..."
When he said this, the thing in his hand was just smashed, cracked from the middle, and made a "pop" sound.
"...No, no, no, nothing happened to me! I went to the wrong place!" The monster at the door screamed, turned around and ran away.
...What are you doing? Why did you leave in mid-sentence? Do you have any quality?
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the cracked rhinoceros horn in her hand, picked up a smaller awl, and prepared to punch a few holes.
"Boss, did you scare away a customer just now?" A familiar voice suddenly came from the door, "This is the first time you have opened the door during the day."
Without raising her head, Yuan Yuanyuan knew it was the little girl named Tang Shi. She picked up a newly bought tea kettle, poured her a cup of hot water, and then said, "Where is Qiu Ling? Why didn't she come with you today? ?”
"She will have to make up lessons later." Tang Shi said. When she was about to continue talking, she suddenly heard the door being pushed open again, and she quickly whispered: "Behave yourself. Don't scare people away this time."
She turned her head and saw a woman in white clothes standing at the door. She immediately said sweetly, "Hello, what do you want to buy?"
The woman at the door said nothing, but looked at Yuan Yuanyuan quietly.
"This is not a guest... this is an old friend." Yuan Yuanyuan put the rhinoceros horn on the table, stood up and said in a relaxed tone, "You stay here for a while, I'll go talk to the elder sister, please don't Touch my clothes, or I’ll break your hands when I come back.”
"I know, I know, your girlfriend, right?" Tang Shi smiled ambiguously, "She's quite pretty, why don't you introduce me to her?"
"Little brat." Yuan Yuanyuan didn't say much, turned around and walked out with the woman in white.
The two of them walked to a tree in the yard. The tree was already bald, without a single leaf. The woman in white looked at the tree for a while, and suddenly said lightly: "Your recent interest seems to be pretty good. I thought You may not like to deal with this kind of little monster."
"Don't inquire about my affairs. My personal affairs have nothing to do with you. We agreed at the beginning. If you have anything to say, just tell me." Yuan Yuanyuan said.
"Recently, there have been a lot of monsters in the outer city trying to sneak into City C." The woman in white said, "We don't know the specific time or the specific plan. We only know this news."
"Is it serious?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.
"It's very serious." The woman in white said, "Not many people know about this matter, only a few of us at the top. We don't dare to act rashly, but we are really powerless and can only come to you for help. Our request is not Gao, I just want you to protect the safety of this area. This area is where little monsters live. If you see strange monsters, please drive them out or kill them."
[An old book friend who I have known for ten years recommended a book-chasing app to me! It is really useful. I use it to read and listen to books to kill time while driving or before going to bed. You can download it here ]
"Wait." Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly said, "I saw a foreign monster last week..."
"Yes, that is a monster that sneaked in." The woman in white said.
Oh... I was wondering why I was sent here... Why did you suddenly let me come back... Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly changed her expression to a dead fish eye, but on the surface she still said coldly: "So... I need to stay here often recently?"
The woman in white did not deny it, but bowed lightly and gave a small jade pendant to Yuan Yuanyuan. After Yuan Yuanyuan took it, she disappeared.
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the jade pendant and felt a terrible headache. She turned around and went back into the house. She saw Tang Shi sitting there playing with a spike. When she saw her come in, she asked, "What kind of monster is that sister? She smells so good."
"Lotus monster, that smell is lotus."
She sat down and fiddled with the buttons, but she couldn't calm down anymore.
Shit... Suddenly I felt like I was entrusted with a very scary task...
