Looking at Aunt Wang and his wife who were now emitting a faint warm light, Li Xiaoqi and the others were unable to react for a moment. After being stunned for a while, Li Xiaoqi, who had some reaction, gave a tentative shout.
"Aunt Wang, Uncle Li?"
After seeing these two people showing kind smiles to them, Li Xiaoqi's tense nerves relaxed, and then he said to Aunt Wang and Uncle Li carelessly as usual.
"Let me tell you, after eating your family's breakfast for such a long time, how can I not tell whether your two elders are gods or mortals?"
"By the way, I didn't expect that Aunt Wang, you two are quite trendy. These LED light-emitting ancient-style robes are very sexy."
After saying that, Li Xiaoqi stood up, still very nervous, and wanted to reach out and touch the robes of Aunt Wang and Uncle Li. At this moment, Yang Shuang, who had completely reacted, stood up and directly touched Li Xiaoqi's robes. The cannon was firmly pressed to the ground and said to Aunt Wang and Uncle Li in fear.
"Please forgive me, Lord Stove Lord and Grandma Stove Lord. My brother is used to being careless. He didn't mean to offend these two immortals."
Seeing Li Xiaoqi being pinned to the ground by Yang Shuang, Aunt Wang laughed a few times as usual, and then spoke to Yang Shuang and Li Xiaoqi.
"This grand ceremony of bowing down and bowing to the ground is not bad. You guys should get up quickly. There is no such thing as becoming an immortal but not an immortal."
"Even if you brothers call us a couple, if you go to my place for breakfast in the future, I won't give you a cheap meal."
After Aunt Wang made some jokes, Li Xiaoqi and the others completely relaxed. At the same time, Aunt Wang and Uncle Li returned to their usual appearance. The identity of Grandma Wang was very curious, but Yang Shuang, who understood the priorities, still revealed the purpose of summoning them.
When they knew that Li Xiaoqi and the others wanted to capture the "Nian Beast", Aunt Wang nodded slightly to herself when she saw Uncle Li, and then began to explain the "Nian Beast" to Li Xiaoqi and the others.
From ancient times to the present, people living in China think that there is only one "Nian beast". In fact, this is not the case. "Nian beast" is just a general term. There are actually two real "Nian beasts". One is called "Xi". One is called "Nian", and these two things are evil beasts that existed in ancient times.
"Xi" has a big head and a small body. The head looks like a lion's head or a tiger's head. The body is dozens of feet long and looks like a thick python body. The eyes are as big as a pair of red copper bells. The whole body is dark green. On both shoulders, there is a child-sized brown pointy horn on each side. "Xi" runs extremely fast, and when running, a biting cold wind will blow. This also explains why every New Year's Eve At that time, the temperature outside will be extremely cold.
Although "Xi" is strong and strong, every scale on his body is harder than granite. The roar when roaring is enough to make an adult's brain burst in an instant, not to mention the mouth full of fangs. Even the royal family at that time Even the hardest armors and shields of the Forbidden Army could not withstand the bite of "Xi".
But slowly over time, people discovered that there are two kinds of powerful evil beasts like "Xi" that people are accustomed to fear, one is red, and the other is fire. Therefore, people living on the land of China, Whenever "Xi" appears, red paper will be posted and red lanterns will be hung. As time goes by, it will gradually evolve into posting Spring Festival couplets and hanging red lanterns.
Compared with "Xi"'s thick and long body, "Nian" looks more like an unusually strong brown gorilla. There is a long white horn with a forked top on its forehead. Its ferocious face is not only unusually eye-catching. In addition to the thick white eyebrows, there are two pairs of sharp and exaggerated canine teeth that intersect up and down, protruding from the mouth, as if to indicate that "Nian" will kill all living creatures around it every moment, and "Nian" has another place , what is striking is that its tail is actually an anaconda that is about to transform into a dragon.
Although "Nian" is as strong as a hill, its cry is so small that it can barely be heard. In view of this characteristic of "Nian", people try to scare it with loud noises, surprising people. Unexpectedly, after hearing the loud noise of "Nian", his whole body shivered, and after making a few sounds like a baby crying, he turned around and ran away. Slowly, every time "Nian" appeared, the whole land of China was Every household in the country will use firecrackers to drive away the "year".
After listening to Aunt Wang's story, Gao Gaojun blurted out in surprise.
"These two guys are exactly the same. They are as fierce as a tiger in one operation, and their combat power is two hundred and fifty."
Uncle Li, who had been silent for a long time after hearing Gao Gaojun's complaints, glanced at Gao Gaojun and said lightly.
"If the Nian beast is really as simple as you think, it would have been killed by people and become an endangered species long ago in the five thousand years of history of the land of China."
"Although, what I said is in conflict with what your Aunt Wang said. You should just understand that what is written on the instant noodle bag should be based on the actual product."
After Uncle Li finished speaking, Aunt Wang took out a piece of something that looked like dried bacon from somewhere. It smelled of an indescribable strange aroma. After handing the piece to Yang Shuang, Wang The aunt said.
"On the night of New Year's Eve, you find an open place and boil this meat in water."
"It probably won't take ten minutes. Nian and Xi will be here as soon as they smell it. It's up to you what you do then."
After saying that, Aunt Wang stood up and looked at her husband and wife's breakfast stall through the window. She looked a little reluctant and said to Uncle Li.
"Honey, since you and I have shown our true identities again, it means that we are no longer needed to stay here in this world. You and I will set off for the Realm of Nothingness now."
After saying that, under the gazes of Li Xiaoqi and others, the bodies of Aunt Wang and Uncle Li began to slowly become transparent until they completely disappeared from the "Civet Office".
As soon as Aunt Wang and Uncle Li disappeared, Wu Xuanyi, who had not been seen for a long time, jumped in from the window in the form of a cat, and then joked with a smile after turning into a human.
"You guys are quite capable. In order to catch the Nian Beast, you have tormented the Kitchen God and the Kitchen God's grandmother who have been dormant for a long time."
Judging from Wu Xuanyi's words, she should have known the true identities of Aunt Wang and Uncle Li, so Li Xiaoqi asked directly.
"Sister Xuanyi, since you already knew it, why didn't you tell us."
After taking a look at Chang Lixing, who was obviously shocked by his transformation from a cat to a human, Wu Xuanyi spoke.
"Many gods exist because people believe in them."
"However, with the development of the world and the advancement of science, fewer and fewer people believe in gods. Therefore, the era of law destruction has just begun. Without the gods that people believe in, mana has become weaker and eventually... All that is left is to return to the realm of nothingness, and then wait for the arrival of the era of rebirth.”
"And the Kitchen King and the Kitchen King's grandmother are able to stay in the world as humans until now, thanks to their breakfast stall."
"Now, they have been summoned by you, and have revealed their true bodies and used up their last bit of mana. In the end, they have only the only choice to return to the realm of the void."
"Xiao Qi, you must know that as more and more gods return to the realm of void."
"The demons and monsters that have been suppressed by them with their magic power will become more active. This also shows that all the enemies you will face in the future will become stronger than the last."
