It's night, in the manor of Shuwai Villa.
As the sun sets and the moon rises, darkness gradually envelopes this strange manor in the mountains.
Not long after Shu Er arrived here, more monsters came to Shuwai Villa one after another.
Although the number and scale were far inferior to the last "Feast of One Hundred Monsters", it was the first time in so many years that so many monsters came without the giant human-faced bear taking the initiative to hold a banquet.
Without exception, these monsters all heard about the water monster running away from home with his two children.
But everything that happened above has nothing to do with Pei Wende now.
Because now he has moved into a room in Shuwai Villa, and is looking at the monsters coming and going outside with great interest.
This room was specially reserved for Pei Wende by the giant human-faced bear.
Since Pei Wende successfully separated Bi Xing and Pingyi last time, the giant human-faced bear, at the water demon's signal, permanently reserved a room for Pei Wende, and he is welcome to stay here at any time.
Although the location of this room is not the master bedroom, it is also not a guest bedroom.
This is a completely independent small courtyard close to the main courtyard. The interior decoration and decoration are exactly the same as when Pei Wende left last time.
I heard from the giant human-faced bear that apart from Pingyi and Bi Xing, even he and the water demon had to ask for permission from the two little guys to enter this small courtyard.
Pei Wende didn't know whether the two little guys regarded this place as their base, or whether they simply wanted to miss him.
Anyway, after Pei Wende moved in, he discovered that the towering tree that Pingyi and Bi Xing called "Grandma Tree" had been transplanted here.
Just like the entire Shuwai Villa, that towering tree is actually a spirit that has not yet transformed.
According to Pei Wende's observation, this towering tree has lived for at least hundreds of years, and its thick trunk may not be able to be hugged by several people.
"Xiao Qing, do you think this big tree originally grew in the villa?"
With some curiosity, Pei Wende turned around and asked Xiao Qing behind him.
At this time, Xiao Qing was lying on the bed in human form, holding a wine gourd he got from nowhere in his hand, looking drunk.
To be honest, if it weren't for the strong smell of alcohol on her body, her current posture would be quite enchanting.
"I'm not that tree demon, how could I know this?"
Rolling her eyes lazily, Xiaoqing didn't want to answer Pei Wende's boring questions at all.
He obviously promised to return to Weishan as soon as possible, but when he arrived in Xiangzhou, he deliberately took a detour to Xianshan.
Of course, Xiao Qing knew that Pei Wende wanted to meet his friend, but the previous attitude of the giant human-faced bear made it difficult for her to have any favorable impressions.
Rude, barbaric, straightforward...
These are labels that Xiaoqing hates. I really don’t know how Pei Wende can tolerate these shortcomings of the giant human-faced bear.
If Xiao Qing remembers correctly, it only took a few days between the two of them meeting and breaking up.
Would you say they have a close relationship?
The enthusiasm and joy when the two met before could not be fake.
But how deep is the friendship between the two?
Xiaoqing also felt it was unrealistic. Anyway, she didn't think that a mere few days could produce such a deep friendship.
In the end, Xiaoqing could only think that there might really be a friendship like old friends in this world.
"In my opinion, this big tree was probably planted by the first owner of this villa."
Pei Wende was used to Xiaoqing's drunken state and didn't pay any attention to her complaints.
"Aren't you curious at all about who the original owner of this villa was?"
"What happened to this villa in the past to make it look like this haunted house now?"
Upon hearing Pei Wende's curious question, Xiaoqing knew that the other party's old habit had happened again.
I want to find out the truth in any case, I want to get to the bottom of everything...
This was a problem that Pei Wende had before he started practicing Buddhism, and it was also the reason why every time he defeated demons and demons, he could find out a lot of things that were old sesame seeds and rotten millet.
If Pei Wende wasn't strong enough, he wouldn't have died many times due to this problem.
"Don't forget, this villa is now the home of that stupid bear."
"If you cause any trouble again, aren't you worried that it will affect your relationship?"
I have to say that Xiao Qing quelled Pei Wende's curiosity with just one sentence.
Pei Wende is still very self-aware about his disaster star attributes.
Once you really delve into the origins of Shuwai Villa, it is indeed very likely that you will uncover some past events that should have been buried in the dust.
By then, he may be able to escape unscathed, but that may not be true for other people in the villa.
"Forget it, being able to restrain some unnecessary curiosity is also a kind of practice."
Thinking of this, Pei Wende no longer cared about the relationship between this big tree and the Shuwai Villa, and turned his attention to the monsters coming and going again.
Many of those monsters came with the same idea as Shu Er.
But there were also some who agreed with the idea of the giant human-faced bear, so they hurried over to express their loyalty.
Seeing all kinds of monsters, Pei Wende realized that the "social" nature of the monster world had developed to this extent.
That seemingly heartless and reckless giant bear with a human face is indeed the overlord of the monster world.
This dominance is not only reflected in ability, but also in the ambition of the giant bear with a human face.
With its current strength and status, just a slight hint that it wants its heirs to inherit its current status is enough to cause surging undercurrents in the land of Xian Mountain.
Pei Wende didn't know how many monsters there were like Shu Er, but he knew clearly that there would never be more monsters than those who came to show their loyalty.
"Monsters and humans are different after all..."
Seemingly sensing Pei Wende's thoughts, the drunken and hazy Xiaoqing raised his eyelids and said with slight disdain.
"That stupid bear wants to change the title of 'Demon King' into a status, and wants his heir to become the 'Uncrowned King' of Xian Mountain forever..."
"I admire its ambition, but its ambition is ultimately unrealistic."
After a slight pause in his tone, Xiaoqing looked at Pei Wende, who seemed to be in the city, and continued.
"The world of monsters is one where the weak eat the strong. Every monster is a 'genius' transformed from countless creatures."
"They may surrender to that stupid bear for some reason, but that's all."
"I'm sure that once that stupid bear dies and his heir insists on inheriting the so-called 'Monster King' title, the first one to rebel will be the group of monsters who came to show their loyalty."
"In comparison, Shu Er and the others are the monsters who really care about Bi Xing and Ping Yi."
At this point, the smile at the corner of Xiaoqing's mouth gradually became arrogant and sarcastic.
"I've read too much about that stupid bear being a human being. He actually wants to practice the 'father dies and son succeeds' approach in the world of monsters."
