"How do you feel about this year's Devils Festival?"

A very old but peaceful voice sounded.

The interior of the car is very comfortable. At least when Yuan Yuanyuan was outside, she never thought that the car would be so comfortable.

They sat in the car, one on each side. Although the car was large, the two of them did not get close to each other, but just sat facing each other.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the scenery outside the window, but in fact, it was impossible to see the entire outside from inside the car.

She could only see a group of various monsters beside the car, and countless lights flying past the car.

The entire team of monsters seemed to be traveling through a galaxy of purple light.

Yuan Yuanyuan actually wanted to get off the car and take a look at what the car she was sitting in looked like from the outside... She felt it should be quite impressive.

Outside, one could faintly hear the shouts of monsters. Yuan Yuanyuan could vaguely see the monsters over there saying some strange words. These words sounded like the chanting of some kind of monster spell, but also a bit like nonsense.

Anyway, no matter what it is, Yuan Yuanyuan thinks it sounds nice, even if she doesn't understand a word.

The man sitting opposite her was the legendary city lord, and the one who said he wanted to talk to her that day.

Before Yuan Yuanyuan came, she thought this person must be a very scary person, but after meeting him, she found that he was surprisingly not something she disliked.

At least he is much more likable than the old man from the Li family.

"What time is it going on outside now?" The city lord suddenly opened the curtain and asked the monster outside.

"It's halfway done." Someone outside answered.

The old man nodded, and the curtain was lowered again.

There was a small candle burning quietly in the car. The candle wick was blue, and the blue light shone on Yuan Yuanyuan's face, making her look a little different from usual.

Yuan Yuanyuan didn't quite understand why the monsters always liked to use blue fire. This kind of fire was just like the Hell Fire. Although it also felt hot to the touch, the color was very different.

"It feels pretty good." Yuan Yuanyuan said.

In fact, she didn't see anything except those scattered lights and a bunch of monsters chanting like sutras.

However, the monster outside just now actually told her that it was only halfway done.

"Thank you very much for agreeing to come here today," the old man said. "Although the current Hundred Demons Festival does not have the momentum of your time, we still put a lot of effort into preparing it."

Yuan Yuanyuan felt that this feeling was a bit strange, that is, everyone treated her as a big monster from n years ago. This feeling was not ordinary, especially from Yuan Yuanyuan's subjective feeling, this was a magical feeling that she had not experienced in 800 years.

"Where are we now?" she asked suddenly.

The old man was stunned, then thought for a moment and said, "We should have returned to the city... Are you tired? If you are tired, we can stop the convoy and take you back."

“…No need.” Yuan Yuanyuan originally wanted to ask which district of City C this was, the Hero District, the Peace District, or the East Lake, but who knew that the city lord would actually tell her “back to the city”.

Did you just take a walk outside the city?

Yuan Yuanyuan thought that the mayor had come to call her tonight for something important, but he didn't say anything, but chatted with her about some trivial things, such as "what happened in C City recently" and "what interesting attractions have been added to C City in recent years, you can go and have a look if you have nothing to do".

She had a cold face throughout the whole process, and answered with things like "Oh, I haven't been there" and "Oh, you can go". In fact, she felt very sorry for the old man and was quite guilty in her heart, but she was afraid of saying too much and making mistakes, so she kept answering like an ancient swordsman.

Yuan Yuanyuan felt extremely tired the whole night, as if she had attended a party that she had to go to but extremely did not want to go to.

By the time she got home, she was as tired as a dog.

When she opened the door, she saw Liu An looking up at her stupidly, like a hungry child.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" Yuan Yuanyuan checked the time.

"Look after the house." Liu An said.

Yuan Yuanyuan walked over and found that he seemed to have not moved at all. He was sitting there quietly, as if he had been there all night.

"Uh...silly boy, I was just saying it casually..." Yuan Yuanyuan walked over and patted his head. Liu An blinked his somewhat dull eyes.

"Let's go to bed." Yuan Yuanyuan yawned lazily, "Let's go to bed quickly. I'm not going out tonight. Let's stay at home for a day. It's time to go back to work in two days."

Liu An looked at Yuan Yuanyuan in a daze again. Yuan Yuanyuan yawned and did not bother Liu An. She went to the kitchen to cook instant noodles.

…

Time passed quickly, and soon the Hundred Demons Festival was over. Yuan Yuanyuan and Liu An began to clean up the house and prepare to reopen.

For the monsters, the New Year is over after the Hundred Monsters Festival. They packed up their things, swept the house from inside to outside, and then replaced the broken windows.

Yuan Yuanyuan didn't put up couplets in the tavern at first, because she had done it at home before, and she always felt that this was just a workplace, not her home.

But Liu An didn't think so. Even though the Chinese New Year had already passed, he still found a pair of couplets and pasted them on the door.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the four huge characters on the banner, "Fortune is Coming", and for some reason she felt a little depressed.

Oh, that's not right, she is not worried at all, she already has a pile of gold bars now.

When Yuan Yuanyuan thought of this, her mood suddenly improved. They ate a little together, then rolled up their sleeves and prepared to continue cleaning up.

Tang Shi and Qiu Ling hadn't been here since the Chinese New Year, but they were supposed to go back to school tomorrow. Senior high school students only had seven days off, so they couldn't even celebrate the Lantern Festival. Yuan Yuanyuan didn't let them come here again.

"Boss, that illusion...did I use it correctly?" Liu An asked hesitantly.

"Yes." Yuan Yuanyuan said, "I think you have a talent for learning witchcraft. At least you are much better than Tang Shi."

She was actually embarrassed to say that she couldn't match Liu An's talent. Liu An was really amazing. At least Yuan Yuanyuan had to study for several months before she figured out how to use illusion to hide her body.

Liu An had just learned it, but he was already able to create his own magic trick of hiding his body with illusion... It was only after watching him operate it that Yuan Yuanyuan realized that this thing could be used in this way, which was much better than her original method.

"It's just a way of doing it." Yuan Yuanyuan wiped the sweat from his head.

She and Liu An threw down the rag. It was already dark outside, so she lit the lantern. After the Hundred Demons Festival, it was time for the tavern to go back to work. These two days happened to fall on Saturday, so she didn't go. She had to go on Monday.

Liu An was the same, but they went to work late. Yuan Yuanyuan usually hated going to work, but this time she inexplicably wanted to go there earlier.

Because she wanted to take a look at the four groups.

Yuan Yuanyuan had a lot of questions about Siqun, but then she thought again, maybe she had seen Siqun, and she had no way of asking him anything clear.

But there is one urgent thing...she has to verify whether Siqun is really stupid.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked up at the starry sky for four seconds.

Well, this question...actually, probably isn't that important.

"Is there anything fun to do today, Saturday?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked herself while sitting on a chair, and suddenly she remembered, yes, today is Saturday, and "Monster Records" should be broadcast.

She flipped open her phone and took a look. This year was quite colorful. She hadn't met many people except Liu An. She almost forgot about it. If she hadn't suddenly realized that today was Saturday, she would have missed it.

Yuan Yuanyuan found a piece of clothing and started sewing it while waiting until midnight. Suddenly, an idea came to her mind -

Tonight...will she draw what she said to the Patriarch of the Li family last time?

Yuan Yuanyuan's hand suddenly stopped.

After a long, long time, she suddenly showed a sneer on her face.

Damn, just draw it. This was the first time she was looking forward to Ji Qiu drawing something related to her.

Liu An was watching Yuan Yuanyuan and suddenly a sneer appeared on her face, and he shuddered for no reason.

I always feel like... the boss is planning something bad...

The two of them sat opposite each other in the room with different moods. The candlelight flickered. The number of cars passing outside gradually increased in the past two days, and the faint sound of whistles could be heard.

"Is it twelve o'clock?" Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly asked.

"We're here." Liu An looked at his watch.

Yuan Yuanyuan threw down the clothes and needle and thread in her hands, picked up her mobile phone, and refreshed "Monster Records" several times.

She now had a strange sense of anticipation, a feeling she had never experienced before.

If Ji Qiu could really draw... she wouldn't mind raising her expectations for "The Tale of Demons" a little more in the future, Yuan Yuanyuan thought inexplicably.

The moment the picture was refreshed, she suddenly felt a little unhappy, because the picture on it was not about what happened between her and the Patriarch of the Li family that night... It directly transitioned to the day of the Hundred Demons Festival, and she met the Patriarch of the Li family before the Hundred Demons Festival.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked extremely grumpy, but Liu An next to her was watching with great interest.

Fanning's figure appeared on it, as well as the man in red who took him in.

【“I’m going out now.” said the man in red. 】

[He was only drawn from behind, with his face not visible. But he was dressed differently today. Although he was still wearing red, he had changed out of his sweater.]

[He was wearing a rather gorgeous red robe. Although his face was not clearly visible, from the back, the clothes should be very formal.]

【“Oh…then be careful.” Fanning waved his hand. 】

[The man in red turned around and walked out. The door was gently closed. Fanning sat in the room and watched the man in red disappear from the room.]

The author has something to say: Yuan Yuanyuan and the head of the Li family will draw it, but not now... If they draw it now, their identities will be exposed, and the timeline of the Demon Chronicles and the real world will be messed up.
