083 The Long Night Is Difficult to Understand (5)
The last person who accompanied me to see the scenery seemed to be my mother.
The last person who led me to the city gate seemed to be my mother too.
Looking at the giant wall in front of me, coupled with the vague memories in my mind, doubts sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain. Are the outer walls of every city this big? Obviously people are so small.
"Let me take a look." She also raised her head, glanced at it and said: "It's just an ordinary stone. It can't be maintained. It will fall over if you push it. No matter how thick it is, it is useless."
Push it down? I briefly thought about the scene, and then shook my head decisively. At that point, it would be great to just jump over.
Unknowingly, he had already arrived at the door and was guarding him.
"Shuangxuan, let's go in."
"oh."
I lowered my head and let her pull me, not daring to look at the humans on both sides. In contrast, the beast that came out of the clothes walked in front of me with its head held high.
One step, two steps...until you take the last step.
No one came to stop me, and I didn’t even notice the strange look on my face. I just came in so easily? So what do I have experienced in the past?
"Don't think so wildly. Let's go and have something to eat first."
"Ah? But I'm not hungry yet." I ate so much not long ago, so there's no reason to eat it so quickly.
"You don't have to be hungry to eat. If you are hungry and can't find food, then you don't have to starve to death?"
Isn’t this normal?…
"I'm very resistant to hunger."
This is quite confident.
Besides, unlike the dense forests and mountains outside, the beasts here are just slaves of humans. It is almost impossible to hunt in a place full of humans.
Of course, it might be easy for her, but she is an evil person after all. Oh, I don't know. Anyway, we can't take too many risks.
"You, we won't hunt tonight, just use bones."
I have heard the word bone countless times.
Bones, also called bone coins, are used by humans to barter with each other.
I was once very interested in bones, probably. But I couldn't get enough of them, and over time, I gave up.
"Do you have any bones?"
"Yep."
"Can I...touch it?"
"Ouch!" Upon hearing this, it, which was walking at the front, turned back and stared at me straight in the eyes.
I quickly stopped and explained: "Wait, I didn't, I didn't mean you!"
"Shuangxuan, don't pay attention to it, it scares you on purpose."
Indeed, there was no movement around. When it roared at me before, it would shake the earth.
"call…"
I breathed a sigh of relief, but my heartbeat still couldn't calm down for a long time. If I repeat this kind of joke a few times, I will probably be scared to death.
"Your mother made these clothes, right?"
She squatted down, put a few bones into the bag on my chest, pressed them gently, stood up and continued moving forward.
"Yeah." I nodded, "It's made from the leftover skin of prey."
"It's very good. It just looks a bit big. Do you need to change it?"
Change? I looked at the humans everywhere. Is that what I thought?
"It's a rare opportunity to try human things occasionally. I'll just switch back to them when the time comes."
On the way forward, the clothes my mother made were quite good, but a bit ugly.
"...You said, you must change it back before you find your mother."
I wonder if this answer was unexpected by her.
"No problem. Then I can change my plan temporarily and go buy some clothes first, then find a place to soak comfortably, and then go fill my stomach, okay?"
"Um."
…
When a bunch of gorgeous clothes appeared in front of me, I didn't know how to choose.
It's like standing at the fork of hunting prey. Each one is my favorite. I want to take a few bites of each one, but that is impossible. Hunting is not as simple as I thought. Even if I can catch it in the end
You should be satisfied if you only live in one.
I know the feeling of being hungry all too well.
"Then buy them all~"
"No." It would be bad if it attracted human attention.
Although the world is full of ants busy looking for carrion, what if you encounter a few leisurely ones?
"That's it." I casually pulled off a set of clothes and dragged them on the ground, not paying attention to the weird looks from the humans in the store.
When I was with my mother, the streets were filled with those disgusting looks. When she was next to me, the eyes around me were still there, but they were essentially different.
Behind, she and it arrived belatedly.
I put the clothes I just wore on my shoulders, looked back, turned around, and then around again.
There's no difference. Why does the human bug's eyes look more like pity when she's walking with her?
I had high expectations for this set of clothes before, but now...
Very light, very thin, very smooth, what else?
If it can't protect you from the wind and rain, it will be a burden. You should wear it anyway, I have already promised her.
…
"Is the temperature right?"
"Um."
"Do you feel anything about the wound?"
"It seems a little itchy."
This is the first time I know that taking a bath can have such a big impact.
"Is there anything wrong inside your body?"
"I don't know...but it's quite comfortable."
It was a pool the size of a lake. It was densely packed with people, and there were all kinds of "treasures" floating on the water.
I don't know the value of it, but I've seen several of them, just down this road, and they're not unusual.
This pool of water seems to have taken a lot of effort. She must have been deceived...
"Okay, all of you, step back."
"Do you need two people to undress for you?"
She didn't speak.
"Roar!"
A roar roared out, and the space solidified in an instant, and the expressions of those human beings were frozen there before they could change.
Its eyes emitted a faint light, and darkness emerged wherever it went.
On a candle-lit night, even if you close your eyes, there are still lights flickering from all directions, which is called night at best.
The real darkness is the fear of never seeing light, far away from the depths that the stars cannot reach.
"Be calm, I don't know how long this night will last."
As soon as he said this, he slowly turned around and looked at me. He had no murderous intention, but there was no reason either.
The next second, the scene resumed. The humans collapsed on the ground one by one, all with fear on their faces.
I know that feeling very well.
"Everyone get out."
After experiencing the horror just now, they all wanted to fly out immediately.
That beast is a pet, right? This pet is so powerful that it’s outrageous! So what else can she do?
After hearing her order, they all hurriedly escaped without delaying even a blink of an eye.
She walked to the pool and sat down, sliding her feet gently in the water.
"Shuangxuan, can you help me again?"
I walked over, took off the belt, and gently pulled off my clothes. I let the clothes float in the air on their own, focusing entirely on her body.
She stood up, walked into the pool, hugged me, and whispered in my ear: "Shuangxuan, am I... pretty?"
This time, I need to think about it carefully.
Thinking about it for a long time.
