Chapter 5 Chapter 5

Yan Luoyue tried his best to avoid the tragic fate of having his name changed to "Yan Ercao".

And then this name...became her nickname.

Yan Luoyue: “…”

Yeah, that’s fine.

On the second day, Yan Yu went to the incubation room to be on duty, and Yan Gan came to take over as usual.

Thinking about the accident that happened last night, Yan Yu entrusted Yan Luoyue to Yan Gan with many instructions, asking Yan Gan to take the child to her immediately and call for help if he found out that the child was not well.

Yan Gan was frightened for a moment, and when he looked at Yan Luoyue again, he found that she was even more careful than someone made of paper.

"Our little grasshopper, why is your life so difficult?"

Upon hearing the name, Yan Luoyue immediately closed her eyes, folded her hands in front of her chest, and stretched her whole body straight to show that the person had passed away peacefully.

After sending Yan Yu to the front door, Yan Gan went back into the house and scratched the tip of Yan Luoyue's nose from a distance:

"I originally brought you some delicious food today, but now it's like this, I really don't dare to give it to you."

After hearing the word "delicious", Yan Luoyue stopped pretending to be dead and her eyes suddenly widened.

It's not her fault.

Anyone who eats insect powder paste for three consecutive days will have this reaction.

Every day when eating, Yan Luoyue has to overcome her psychological barriers, ignore the suspicious color in the spoon, and not infer the composition of the raw materials by taste.

Yan Luoyue watched eagerly as Yan Gan took out a large fresh apple from his arms.

The fruit is firm and plump with bright color. Just by looking at it, you can almost smell the unique fragrance of apple.

Her sight involuntarily drifted to the fruit, and Yan Luoyue even fixed her gaze on it.

Yan Gan found her reaction amusing and deliberately moved the fruit closer.

He moved the apple to the left, and Yan Luoyue's dark eyes turned to the left; he moved the apple to the right, and her dark eyes turned to the right.

"Hahahahahaha!" Yan Gan burst into laughter.

He took the apple back and put it to his mouth. He took a bite and said with emotion, "Sister is so cute!"

Yan Luoyue: “…” You are not human!

Perhaps the accusation in Yan Luoyue's eyes was too obvious, and Yan Gan felt embarrassed by her gaze.

Scratching the back of his head and thinking for a while, Yan Gan hesitantly shook the apple in front of Yan Luoyue's nose.

"Then, let me give you a sniff?"

“…”

Letting people smell it but not eat it is worse than letting them look at it but not eat it!

If such a vile behavior had happened in her previous life, Yan Luoyue would have sued the animal protection organization!

————————————

The sun and the moon alternate, and day and night separate.

In the blink of an eye, it has been a month since Yan Luoyue was born.

Over the past month, she had been living a relatively stable life, with her health remaining above the safe level, which even made Yan Yu and Yan Gan breathe a sigh of relief.

So, just yesterday, Yan Gan secretly smuggled an orange over and squeezed half a spoonful of orange juice for Yan Luoyue to taste.

Yan Luoyue couldn't help being moved to tears.

This is her small spoonful, but it is a big spoonful of civilization.

There will be rice, there will be fish soup, and sooner or later there will be a normal meal.

The next day, Yan Gan smuggled a pear for Yan Luoyue.

By the third day, Yan Gan, who had become familiar with the situation, not only smuggled a date to Yan Luoyue, but also wrapped her up tightly like a rice dumpling and took her out.

The slightly cold wind blew across his cheeks, occasionally taking away Yan Luoyue's health points by -0.01, -0.01.

It doesn’t matter, she can still afford this amount of health for now.

After being cooped up in the house for a month, Yan Luoyue was finally able to go out. She couldn't stop looking around.

There were voices coming from not far away. Yan Gan was young and lively, so he walked towards the direction of the voice while holding Yan Luoyue.

When I got closer, I realized that the people talking were a group of dusty people.

Yan Luoyue: “Ahh.”

When Yan Gan heard this, he automatically started talking in his chatty style, and started talking very enthusiastically.

"Who are they, you ask? They are just some demons who are passing by and staying overnight. Our tribe often provides rest services. If any passersby want to rest, we will provide them with hot water and medicine and treat them well."

Yan Luoyue looked at it for a while.

The team was quite large, with only a dozen guests, but the horses were pulling seven or eight large carts.

The car seemed to be filled with living creatures. Even from a distance, Yan Luoyue could smell a slight fishy odor coming from the wind.

Yan Gan twitched his nose, thinking: "I know, they must be the team that came back from the Demonic Seal!"

In the yard, a group of people were unloading goods from a carriage.

It turned out that the car was filled with fine iron cages, which contained some horrible-looking creatures with bloody mouths. When the blackout curtains were lifted, a foul smell filled the air.

Yan Luoyue: “Hoohoo.”

"Oh." Yan Gan answered reflexively: "That's the demon tribe."

Upon hearing this answer, Yan Luoyue in the cradle showed surprise on his face.

In the game "One World", demons do exist.

In the game setting, human cultivators, demons, and monsters live on the same continent, standing in a three-way balance. Occasionally, they will form alliances in pairs to maintain the balance of power in the world of immortal cultivation.

If you count carefully, the ancestors of the three families have accumulated a lot of experience in "pulling one and beating one".

Therefore, the relationship between the three tribes has always been ambiguous. They will not allow one tribe to dominate, nor will they kill each other off.

However, those ugly-looking, chaotic-eyed, and completely non-human creatures in the cage have nothing to do with the "demons" in "One World" with different styles and ochre or dark blue patterns on their faces.

It seems that the game setting of "One World" is somewhat different from reality.

In the yard, someone opened the iron cage and pulled out the tied-up monster inside.

The monster seemed to have sensed that something terrible was about to happen, and it screamed at the top of its voice like a pig waiting to be slaughtered.

The monster was hung upside down on a rack with its wrists shackled, and the blood it leaked was glowing with a strange black glow, which filled a basin.

The customer expertly peeled off the skin and corners, even the nails were carefully shaved off, and placed in a special container.

Yan Luoyue: “Beep.”

Yan Gan: "Do you want to know what they are doing? The uncles have to pack up the materials before they can exchange them for money."

"The material they are dealing with now is the mud demon. The mud demon will not live long after leaving the demon seal. After death, it will turn into a pool of mud within half a day, so it must be dealt with as soon as possible."

"There are people who specialize in purchasing materials from monsters. Monster blood can be used as medicine, monster horns and monster skin can be used to refine weapons, and their internal organs are also the raw materials for refining pills. However, the meat is too sour and smelly to be eaten, and it is useless."

As soon as he heard the word "refining tool", Yan Luoyue's mind couldn't help but drift away.

Although she had never come into contact with the monster before, from the perspective of a weapon refiner, her fur and horns could indeed be refined.

However, the level of this batch of monsters is too low and the materials are crude, so they can only be used as auxiliary refining materials and cannot be used as the main materials for refining tools.

Among the demon race, there is probably no such thing as children's mental health.

Even though the guests in the yard saw Yan Gan squatting at the door holding a baby, they were still busy and no one thought that this was something that children should not see.

After decomposing this batch of mud demons, a middle-aged man with broad shoulders waved at Yan Gan.

"Here, this is for you."

It was a pair of mud devil's knuckles, as thin as beads, with a layer of gray covering the bone.

This joint is of no use and merchants will not buy it, but children often wear it as a bead.

Yan Gan was cheerful and not afraid of strangers, and took the beads generously.

"Uncle, you guys just came back from the seal, right? I heard that the demonic disaster was rampant a few days ago. How is the situation now?"

The demon uncle touched his chin and said, "It's strange that we went there just in time to catch up with the demon disaster."

"At first, the demon was so violent that we ignored it. We finally caught a demon snake and looked up again—hey, the demon stopped all of a sudden!"

He said nonchalantly, "They say Mozai has the temper of a child, but he really can turn hostile at any time."

Yan Gan looked at the demon uncle with shining eyes and listened with great interest.

Being looked at with admiration by the child, the uncle also began to show off.

He waved his hand behind him boldly:

"But when the demonic disaster spread, there were indeed many types of demons. Look at the cages on the car, many of which we have never seen before. We plan to take them all to the merchants and let them estimate their prices."

Yan Gan was eager to try: "Uncle, are there really so many monsters? Can you open my eyes?"

"Sure, why not." The demon uncle laughed cheerfully.

He said: "Your tribe is closer to the seal and has been stationed here for many years. I believe you have more experience than those of us who come from far away."

Yan Gan does have a better understanding of this aspect.

There were seven or eight large cages on the car. He looked through them one by one and accurately pointed out the types of monsters such as "Green Mane Demon", "Mud Drill", "Tumble Beast", and "Thunder Monster".

Yan Gan kindly instructed:

"Of all the diamonds in the mud, only the heart is easy to sell. Maybe three low-grade spirit stones."

"The highest price for selling a Green Mane Demon alive is at least ten low-grade spirit stones. Don't be fooled by unscrupulous merchants."

"Thunderbolt monster..."

Yan Luoyue was held in his arms, and while facing the monster, she also gained a lot of knowledge.

After talking about all the cages in a row, there was only one small cage left, which was stuffed in the corner and covered with a layer of black cloth.

"Uncle, what's in here...?"

The demon uncle recalled for a while: "Oh, that's it! We just caught this demon snake, and when we looked up, we found that the demon disaster had stopped."

He reached up to lift the black cloth, mumbling:

"We have never seen this kind of monster before. Little brother, do you recognize it? Hehe, this little thing is really powerful."

Before he finished speaking, the curtain was lifted, revealing a dying demon snake in a cage.

The cage was not big, and the magic snake was also small and weak, only as thick as a child's little finger and less than two inches long, like an exquisite ornament.

The demon snake was nailed with three magic nails at its head, tail and heart. It was fixed in the cage like a specimen.

Yan Luoyue frowned.

When she saw the scene of the monster being slaughtered just now, her mood was just normal.

However, for some reason, Yan Luoyue felt a sharp pain in her heart at the first sight of the little snake. A strong feeling of pity surged in her heart, causing her to almost have heart palpitations.

Unlike other low-level monsters that were usually gray and black, the little snake was actually crystal green.

Even though its body was surrounded by thick black demonic energy, its flesh was rolling with blood, and even white bones were visible under the wounds, the only remaining piece of emerald green snake scale was still as clear as the finest jade, condensed with the ripples of green flowing like the center of a clear lake, and was so beautiful that it was breathtaking.

The blackout cloth was pulled away, and the little snake tried its best to twist its body to sense the movement outside the cage.

With this action, the dry flesh that was pierced by the magic nail began to ooze out the remaining blood.

The nictitating membrane covering the eyelids opened, revealing cold snake pupils like obsidian.

The demon snake glanced out of the cage coldly.

At the first glance, Yan Luoyue was struck by lightning, and even the wooden hairpin in her arms slipped out of her hand.

——She was literally struck by lightning.

Yan Luoyue never expected that the gaze of this demon snake actually had a slight paralyzing effect and also came with a damage value!

As a turtle baby who was just one month old, had no resistance to paralysis, was weak, pitiful and helpless, Yan Luoyue was hit on the spot.

Her whole body stiffened, and the wooden hairpin slipped from her arms and fell straight into the seam of the cage.

That’s not all. Just by being looked at by it, Yan Luoyue’s health points dropped by -0.5!

In an instant, the long-lost dangerous red light filled her entire vision again.

Now, Yan Luoyue no longer cared about Sheshe's palpitations. The only feeling she had was numbness.

Yan Luoyue: “…”

Yan Luoyue discovered sadly that with her current health, it was only enough to take two glances at the demon snake in front of her.

It's absolutely amazing.

What kind of strange, irrational creature is this?

Whoever you stare at will lose blood. Is your race Medusa? !
