After an unknown amount of time, Cong Yunzi, who felt uncomfortable and weak all over his body, struggled to lift his upper and lower eyelids.
In a trance, he saw the figure of a young girl busy, seemingly taking care of herself.
Finally he opened his eyes, glanced around, and found that he was in a room that looked like an ordinary home.
Looking at himself, his shirt was taken off, and an ointment was applied to the poisoned wound on his chest.
That ointment is very magical, and it actually shows signs of restraining scorpion venom.
The girl noticed that Cong Yunzi had woken up, smiled, came to his side and asked with concern:
"Taoist Master, are you awake?"
Yunzi and the girl looked at each other. The girl had a pretty face and was pretty, but she looked a little weak.
But when Cong Yunzi saw it, he became excited:
"monster!"
He is a professional Taoist who has been professionally exterminating monsters for twenty years. Even if he is in a very bad state, he can still recognize the opponent as a monster at a glance.
Seeing Cong Yunzi's excitement, the girl quickly waved her hand and explained:
"Taoist Priest, don't get me wrong, I am a monster, but I am a good monster and never harm anyone."
After saying that, he pointed at Cong Yunzi's chest and said:
"Grandma Chicken helped you cure your poison."
"A brood of monsters?"
A trace of gloom appeared on Yunzi's somewhat pale face.
Hearing this, the monster girl suddenly said with dissatisfaction:
"What are you talking about? We live here without fighting against the world, neither hurting nor killing. Why do you use such vulgar words to talk about us!"
At this time, another old woman with wrinkled skin walked in outside:
"Qiao'er, but the Taoist priest is awake?"
From Yunzi's perspective, he could tell at a glance that this was an old hen that had become a spirit, which was considered quite old among monsters.
Seeing another monster, Cong Yunzi looked gloomy and did not look good at all.
The monster girl known as Qiaoer stepped forward and helped Granny Chicken in, and said with some dissatisfaction:
"Mother-in-law, I seem to have saved a white-eyed wolf. Look at his look, as if you want to kill us all."
Chicken Granny smiled and said slowly:
"Taoists like them often deal with monsters that harm lives. Over time, they will become resistant to all kinds of monsters. It is normal.
But don't worry, as long as it's not the Qingyi Taoist priest who was killed that day, most of the other Taoist priests are reasonable. Not to mention repaying kindness, at least they will not repay kindness with enmity. "
Chicken Granny said, walked up to Cong Yunzi and reached out to touch the wound on his chest.
Cong Yunzi subconsciously wanted to stop him, but found that he had no strength at all. He could only watch the Chicken Granny touching his chest.
"Well, this Taoist priest is a profound practitioner. If an ordinary practitioner were to be poisoned by this poison, his whole body would have been covered in ulcers. How could he survive until now?"
Hearing this, the monster girl asked again:
"Will he be okay then?"
"My ability naturally suppresses poisons such as centipedes and scorpions. Logically speaking, the medicine can cure the disease.
Unfortunately, my own cultivation is too weak, and it will take a long time for the antidote to take effect.
But with the master's cultivation, he can finally resolve the scorpion poison. "
Hearing that this person would not die, the monster girl nodded and felt relieved.
After Chicken Granny said a few words, she went to work outside again, leaving them alone in the room.
Seeing that Cong Yunzi was still staring at her with an unkind look, the monster girl was a little angry. She stepped forward and grabbed Cong Yunzi's cheek, forcing it to look like a smile.
"Hehe, he looks quite handsome like this. Why do you keep a straight face all day long and you don't know how much money someone else owes you!"
Yunzi has never been "insulted" like this since he was a child, and his expression turned gloomy again.
Seeing this, Qiaoer frowned again and forced him into a smiling face again. His hands glowed slightly and he used a little magic power to lift his face and fix it into a smiling face.
Seeing that Cong Yunzi could no longer keep a straight face, Qiaoer smiled with satisfaction, clapped his hands and said:
"That's it, it's good to smile more when you have nothing to do."
Then he pointed to the kitchen and said,
"You have a good rest. I'll make you something delicious and replenish it. It'll be done quickly."
With that said, he skipped to the kitchen.
Cong Yunzi, who could not move for the time being, could only lie on the couch and wait, keeping a smile that was not his own on his face.
Qiaoer moved very quickly, and in a short while he had a bowl of rice porridge ready and brought it to Yunzi.
"No, it's just made, eat it!"
Place the hot rice porridge in front of Cong Yunzi.
I found that this person was motionless, and then I remembered that this person could also move his mouth and eyes now.
"Seeing how miserable you are, I'll feed you."
As he said that, he picked up the bowl and spoon and planned to feed him.
Cong Yunzi, who had been silent since he knew there were monsters here, saw this and said with a bad attitude:
"roll!"
Qiaoer was also angry when he heard this.
"Okay, this girl is kind enough to save you, but you still don't appreciate it!"
Saying that, he picked up the bowl,
"I have to let you eat it today!"
As he spoke, he put the spoon aside, held the bowl with one hand, and held Cong Yunzi's chin with the other hand, pinching his mouth open.
Regardless of whether the food in the bowl was still hot, he poured it directly into Cong Yunzi's mouth.
Cong Yunzi wanted to resist, but at this time, his body was in the detoxification stage. His whole body was weak and numb, so he couldn't resist at all.
After forcing down a bowl of boiling rice porridge, Qiaoer clapped her hands and laid Cong Yunzi down on the bed.
"Okay, just lie down, I have other work to do!"
With steam coming from his mouth, Cong Yunzi looked at the roof beams without any reaction.
Seeing this, Qiaoer curled her lips and was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. She turned around and left with the bowl.
After lying down for a while, Yunzi felt that the numbness in his body gradually receded, and he gradually regained some strength. He struggled to get up and almost fell off the bed.
After finally holding on, I picked up the coat on the bedside and held on to the wall to go out.
When I walked out of the house and looked outside, I saw that this place was originally a small town. It was located next to mountains and water. It was clean and beautiful.
There seemed to be dozens of people in the town. At first glance, although they were all humanoid, there was no doubt that they were all monsters.
These monsters live in a house here, and their daily diet and living habits are the same as those of humans.
I saw Na Qiao'er washing clothes by the pool not far away. He heard the noise coming out of Yunzi and turned around.
"What are you doing? Your poison is not cured that quickly. You are still very weak. You should lie down and rest."
Qiao'er said, putting down her work and pulling Cong Yunzi back to the house to rest.
When Cong Yunzi saw him coming, he subconsciously wanted to avoid it.
But it was of no use, Qiaoer still held him back.
Qiao'er saw that although Cong Yunzi still had the smile she helped him create, his eyes were full of displeasure, so he thought for a moment and said:
"Looking at you, do you want to get some fresh air outside?"
Cong Yunzi wanted to speak, but his throat hurt a little from being burned earlier. He was speechless, so he just kept silent.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent."
Qiao'er said, suddenly holding Cong Yunzi's arm.
Cong Yunzi's body suddenly became stiff and he turned his head to look at her.
"Don't think too much, I just see that you are weak now and need help, so I just want to help you.
Of course, it’s also because you are quite handsome..."
Qiaoer said, feeling a little embarrassed.
But after all, she is a monster. She is not as coy as ordinary girls. She is someone who dares to love and hate.
On the other hand, Cong Yunzi felt a little at a loss and just said nothing.
At this time, Granny Chicken came back with a basket of wild vegetables. Seeing them holding hands together, she smiled kindly:
"Qiao'er, leave your clothes to me. You can take the Taoist priest around. If you walk more, the medicine will spread throughout your body faster."
"alright, I got it!"
Qiao'er nodded obediently, regardless of Cong Yunzi's opinion, and just half supported and half dragged him around the town.
The monsters and townspeople in the town looked at them strangely when they saw them walking like this.
Someone joked:
"Qiao'er, did you save yourself a wishful husband?"
Hearing this, the others laughed and started cheering together.
Qiaoer blushed slightly and retorted:
"I'm the one who found him, what do you think? Did you see that he is a powerful Taoist priest? If you dare to speak rudely to me again in the future, let him catch you all and put you all in the Demon Locking Tower to build a wall!"
"Hey, this girl, even before she gets married, is helping the Taoist priests to deal with us!"
Some people laughed and said, others also laughed and teased.
After saying a few words, everyone went about their own business.
These monsters, although they are called monsters, actually live quite a miserable life, just like ordinary people. They are not seen using magic power to facilitate their lives.
In fact, I didn't even see them casting spells, everything was done by myself.
In addition, the monsters in the town are very inconsistent with the image of handsome men and beautiful women that ordinary people say. They are basically "crooked melons and cracked dates". It is no wonder that Qiaoer falls in love with Congyunzi.
After Qiaoer communicated with the townspeople, he said to Cong Yunzi next to him:
“The residents of the town are all ordinary monsters who are not implicated in killing.
Some are because of their weak cultivation, some are because they don’t like the jungle within the demon clan, and some simply don’t like fighting...
Everyone gathers here, just like ordinary people, living a life without competing with the world.
Regardless of whether there are prosperous times or troubled times outside the mountains, we just have to live our own lives. "
After saying that, he added:
"By the way, our way of life is recognized by Zhengxuanmen, who personally named our place 'Changshan Town'.
Because of this, no righteous people will ever come to deal with us.
Don't worry about those messy things at all.
Well...except for God damn Qing Yimen! "
Hearing this, Cong Yunzi looked sideways slightly. Feeling that his throat had recovered a little after such a long time, he asked hoarsely:
"Why?"
"Why else? I killed everyone that day. They are even more evil than evil spirits. They kill even monsters. It's simply too much!
Chicken Granny, you see, what a good person.
When she was with Father Chicken, she was much younger than she is now, and she looked energetic.
Just five years ago, the rooster went out to kill a harmful centipede.
After getting rid of the harmful monster, the rooster came back.
As a result, on the way back, I met a damn bastard.
When the bastard saw that the rooster was a monster, he killed the rooster without saying a word.
At that time, Granny Chicken almost died of sadness...
Later, a Taoist priest revealed that that damn stinky Taoist priest was from the same sect named Cong Yunzi. "
Speaking of this, Qiaoer couldn't help but clench his fists and said:
"When I succeed in my cultivation in the future, I will definitely find that damned one and avenge the rooster!"
"Did that cockerel do a lot of good things?"
"Of course, Mr. Chicken is so nice, he is like a grandfather to me.
He is also very capable. All kinds of poisonous insects, centipedes, scorpions and other monsters will scare him to death.
Over the years, I don’t know how many disasters I have helped people eliminate..."
As he talked, Qiaoer's mood became a little depressed, and he looked at Xiaotan with the rippling blue waves in front of him.
"If only he were still here...
Chicken Granny will be very happy. "
Seeing Qiaoer lowering his head and looking like he was about to cry, Congyunzi couldn't help but think of a monster he killed five years ago...
It was a rooster that had grown into a spirit, and it did have some abilities. It killed him after it resisted a complete set of "Heavenly Stems and Five Elements Thunder".
When the monster died, he was still shouting that he was wronged.
At that time, Cong Yunzi didn't care. Monsters deserved to die. There was no such thing as injustice. It was ridiculous!
Qiaoer kicked a stone in a depressed mood and dropped it into the pool, making a "dong" sound.
After being silent for a while facing the pool, Qiaoer returned to smiling.
"Forget it, just keep this in mind and talk about it later.
Come on, let's go somewhere else. "
Cong Yunzi didn't say anything, just silently letting Qiaoer pull him along.
