Chapter 22 Coyote


Chapter 22 鸰颢

On the maple tree that was empty just a moment ago, the mandarin duck stood with its head held high, as if it had always been there naturally. Its long tail hung down from the branch. It was obviously a single red, but it was full of ever-changing and colorful colors. .

Xiao Xiao slowly walked towards the maple tree.

Very wisely, he stopped three steps away from the maple tree.

Xiao Xiao raised his head and looked at Luo Tao, but was speechless for a moment.

Only now did he realize that although he desperately wanted to see the turtle, in the final analysis he was just curious about the talking monster.

So, now, what should he say?

Xiao Xiao was stunned. Was he going to say "Hello, first time we meet, my name is Xiao Xiao, nice to meet you"?

Just thinking about it makes me feel embarrassed.

Haha, he never thought before that his future self would one day be troubled by how to get along with monsters.

……

This maple forest is not inaccessible. Occasionally, tourists, either alone or in groups, pass by Xiao Xiao.

The cheerful chatter was close to my ears, yet seemed far away in the sky.

People passing by just glanced at the young man standing alone under the maple tree casually.

Even though it was a bit strange for this young man to look up and stare at the maple tree in a daze, he just sighed: It is rare to see young people who like maple trees so much.

It was precisely because he knew other people's opinions that Xiao Xiao could stare at Yuluo so unscrupulously and openly.

He was stunned.

Thinking about how to have a friendly and cordial conversation with a monster.

……

Maybe he finally couldn't stand Xiao Xiao's stupid behavior, so he said in a somewhat condescending manner: "Human, what do you want to do when you come to me?"

Xiao Xiao, who was originally surprised by Luo Tao's opening, was instantly confused.

"Idiot." Luo Tao looked contemptuous.

Huh? Only then did Xiao Xiao come to his senses, and his mind began to spin, recalling the first conversation he had with the monster. At that time, the other party clearly spoke in vernacular.

So, now, is this monster playing tricks on him?

Xiao Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

But the tension and embarrassment was relieved.

……

"Human beings are just as stupid as ever." He said lazily. If it weren't for the fact that it hadn't met a human being who could see it for a long time, it would have been too lazy to pay attention to this human being.

In this regard, Xiao Xiao expressed silence.

"Hello, my name is Xiao Xiao."

Yes, after thinking for a long time and struggling for a long time, the stupid human Xiao Xiao decided to start by introducing himself.

However, Luo Tao just flicked his beautiful tail, and a gorgeous stream of light flashed in front of Xiao Xiao's eyes, but he didn't say a word to Xiao Xiao's words.

It couldn't be more obviously dismissive.

Well, Xiao Xiao felt a knowing blow.

However, it did not disappear, and the mandarin duck did not disappear in front of his eyes again.

So, that means we can still talk?

Just when Xiao Xiao was thinking hard about the next topic, his head suddenly hit hard and he stumbled, almost falling.

After seeing the familiar tail feathers in front of him, Xiao Xiao instantly understood what was on his head.

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows twitched, "Huh?" Xiao Xiao suddenly got stuck. What should he call this monster? Hearing voices is the feeling of an adult male, so, "...youkai, uh, Mr. Owl, you..."

Xiao Xiao just stood up and was interrupted.

"Do you know that I am a mandarin cat?" The mandarin cat, which has always looked very chin-ridden, flew to the top of the maple tree again. Its dark eyes were dark and obscure. For the first time, there were clear mood swings, a bit of surprise, a bit of doubt. There is also a bit of vigilance.

This human being can see himself. Even though such people are becoming increasingly rare in modern times, it is not uncommon. However, it is very unusual for him to be able to reveal his identity at once.

As mentioned before, with the passage of time, fewer and fewer humans can see monsters.

In the past, even though there were not many, I could always encounter one or two from time to time.

But now, he has not encountered it for nearly a hundred years.

That's why he was so interested in teasing this human being. Only then will he appear in front of this human being again and again.

Otherwise, how could this crappy human be able to find him?

However, now it seems that this human being may not be as simple as it seems.

His identity is not known to ordinary people.

Did he make a mistake?

Yuan Tao sensed Xiao Xiao's aura carefully, but he still didn't have any spiritual power at all. He was just an ordinary human being.

The old monster who has lived for hundreds of years is rarely confused.

……

Xiao Xiao certainly didn't know Yuan's complex psychology.

But he still understood the sudden change in the monster's eyes.

But he didn't know how to explain it.

Naturally, the Demonic Principle is not something that can be proclaimed verbally.

He had a hunch that Yaojian might be his greatest reliance.

Therefore, even though he was sweating coldly, Xiao Xiao could only hold on to the extremely oppressive gaze projected by the mandarin duck.

He looked blank and innocent.

"I saw it in a book."

"Because I could suddenly see monsters, I read a lot of books about monsters during this time."

"So..."

Xiao Xiao shrugged, "It seems that reading more books is useful."

As for Xiao Xiao's statement, Luo Tao naturally couldn't believe it so easily, but he was not a fledgling little monster, and he would not dig deep to get an answer.

As a stylish big demon, he also respects the privacy of others.

He just needs to know that the human beings in front of him are not as simple as they seem.

Therefore, in response to Xiao Xiao's remarks, Luo Tao didn't say anything more except a slight snort.

Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, was a bit out of tune. His first reaction was to express shock that a monster could make such a difficult expression as "snort", and then he realized that he knew this monster. This topic was brought to an end, and I couldn't help but let out a huge sigh of relief.

Maybe he was overthinking, but the need to be on guard against people was inevitable, let alone the need to guard against monsters?

It's not that he is racially prejudiced, it's just that the old saying always has some truth to it: people who are not of my race must have different minds.

Don't be afraid of anything, just be afraid of ten thousand.

……

The atmosphere that followed suddenly became relaxed.

Monsters have always respected the strong. Now that they know that Xiao Xiao is not simple, they will not put on airs. Even if they cannot treat him as an equal, they will not ignore him.

Talking to monsters is a very novel thing.

Monsters that have lived for hundreds of years are incredibly knowledgeable and knowledgeable that ordinary humans cannot imagine.

And after knowing that Xiao Xiao was suddenly able to see monsters in the near future, Luo Hao made a few words to give Xiao Xiao a rough understanding of monsters.

In Xiao Xiao's view, even though the mandarin duck has the uncertainties and dangers of being a demon, its beautiful appearance always makes it easy for people to let down their guard against it.

What's more, even though he didn't speak much, Yuan Tao really told him a lot of things he didn't know before. He might know these things in the future, but it would definitely take a lot of time and energy.

Therefore, Xiao Xiao is grateful for Luo Tao's generous teachings.

No matter what state of mind Yuan Tao was in telling him this, he must recognize this feeling.

The only regret is that Luo Tao couldn't give a clear answer to the fact that he could suddenly see monsters. He only told him to let nature take its course and everything would come to light.

Xiao Xiao actually didn't care much about the answer to this question. After all, no matter what the cause, the result was that he could see monsters.

This is the most important thing.

Instead of worrying about how he saw the monster, why not spend more time thinking about how to deal with his life that gradually deviated from the normal track after seeing the monster?

This is what he should consider most at the moment.
