When Pei Wende finally got rid of Ku Chan, it was already late at night.
It has been a long time since the giant human-faced bear launched the Banquet of Hundred Demons, and various strange demons began to appear throughout the manor.
A river monster with antlers on its head and countless tentacles on its lower body...
The bone demon holding a copper hammer and whose body was as pale as grey...
A wolf demon wearing a cassock and walking on all fours...
A crow spirit with wings on its back and wearing armor...
Countless monsters that Pei Wende had seen or never seen appeared one after another, gradually igniting the fiery atmosphere of the manor.
In this carnival of monsters, Pei Wende is obviously among them, but he has a sense of detachment from them.
This is the first time Pei Wende has seen such a large gathering of monsters.
Take a closer look. It seems to be no different from the grand festival of human society.
Except that the participants were a group of strangely dressed monsters, this party was exactly the same as the villages and towns that Pei Wende went to during the holidays.
Especially after more and more monsters entered the scene, Pei Wende even saw a green little devil with horns on his head starting to do business.
The people doing business with this little green ghost are a group of weird creatures that look like earthworms gathering and coiling up.
"It turns out that monsters also have their own society!"
With this knowledge, Pei Wende sighed softly, feeling that his knowledge of monsters had been refreshed again.
But if you think about it carefully, this seems to be a very natural phenomenon.
Whenever there are many living beings that can be classified as "similar", there will naturally be a need for mutual contact and mutual understanding.
Especially the immortal species with advanced wisdom, even if they are just to kill boring time, they will inevitably form a certain social cognition and structure.
Looking at the entire evolutionary history of organisms, how many unique organisms can successfully survive to the end?
The "Feast of One Hundred Monsters" held by the giant human-faced bear is at best an opportunity, an opportunity for this group of monsters who have been excluded from human society to gather together.

"Quack!"
Just as Pei Wende was immersed in emotion, a clear frog croaking suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Are you the 'protagonist' of this feast of demons?"
Pei Wende lowered his head in the direction of the sound, and what caught his eye was a toad standing upright.
Wearing a coir rain hat on the head and a short knife on the waist...
That toad, which seemed to be only the size of Pei Wende's hand, gave people an aura of "the sky is big and the earth is big, and I am the biggest".
"So it's just a human? It doesn't look like there's anything special about it."
Curling his lips rather disdainfully, Toad didn't even wait for Pei Wende to reply, and turned around and got into the crowded crowd.
As for the monsters next to them?
I have long been used to this.
Because this "Feast of a Hundred Monsters" was started because of Pei Wende, but except for those curious guys, no monster would focus on him.
After all, the giant human-faced bear has held the "Feast of a Hundred Demons" quite often, and the reasons for holding it are all kinds of, and few are the same.
Today I can hold a banquet of hundreds of monsters just because my wife is happy...
Tomorrow, you can also hold another hundred demon banquet to celebrate the 3386th day since you left Bashu...
As time goes by, the monsters living here will get used to it.
Rather than delving into the reasons why the giant human-faced bear held the "Feast of Hundred Demons", it was more important to enjoy the carnival of this night.
In comparison, Pei Wende participated in the "Feast of a Hundred Monsters" as a human being, which was actually what surprised the monsters even more.
Of course, limited by their own vision and abilities, most monsters do not know that Pei Wende's true identity is a human being, but regard him as a great monster who has transformed into a human being.
[This toad... actually saw through my identity at a glance? 】
His eyes unconsciously scanned the bodies of several other "people" nearby. Pei Wende was very sure that the toad had really recognized his human identity.
Because if we just talk about dressing up, those monsters who have transformed into humans and tried hard to imitate human clothes and accents are actually more like a person than themselves.
"That's Lao Qi, a toad monster who specializes in 'multi-eyed magical power'."
"It is not good at other things, but its ability to distinguish right from wrong and distinguish truth from falsehood is one of the best."
Appearing quietly at Pei Wende's feet, Shu Er stared at the direction the toad monster left and explained.
"It's a pity that it likes to play tricks too much..."
"So the monsters at the party didn't like it very much..."
The two heads of Shu Er continued to speak one word at a time, which made Pei Wende have to look at him sideways.
Because he found that although the two brothers who shared the same body liked to quarrel, they did have more advantages than ordinary "double monks" in terms of tacit understanding and cooperation.
"Multi-eyed supernatural power... what kind of magical power is it?"
Although he knew that it might be inappropriate to ask this question, Pei Wende couldn't help but curiously asked.
You can see through your own identity at a glance, and you also have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, truth from falsehood. Why does this sound a bit like your own clairvoyance?
"Multi-eye magical power, as the name suggests, is a kind of magical power that cultivates 'eyes'."
"Every bump on that toad's body is an eye with special abilities."
Upon hearing Pei Wende's culture, the two Shu Er brothers looked at each other in tacit understanding, and then without hesitation, they shook off Lao Qi's trump cards.
"As it often brags, each of its eyes comes from a different monster."
"And each monster's eyes will give it different abilities."
"When it has more and more eyes, its own strength will become stronger and stronger."
"Until you finally possess the 'Thousand Eyes', you can see through the true nature of everything in the world and achieve the right path."
Pei Wende couldn't help but touch his forehead. He always felt that this so-called "multi-eyed supernatural power" sounded more and more like clairvoyance.
In other words, this magical power is simply a variant of clairvoyance.
As one of the six magical powers of Buddhism, Tianyan Tong actually does not have any fixed form of expression.
The reason why orthodox practitioners like Pei Wende can cultivate the "eye brows and erect eyes" is simply because the human pineal gland has the potential to become the eye of heaven.
For other beings who practice clairvoyance, it would be perfectly normal for them to develop other forms of clairvoyance.
After all, even the orthodox Buddhist Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has the image of a thousand hands and a thousand eyes, observing the sound of the world, not to mention other monsters.
"I see."
