That night Yuan Yuanyuan practiced Taoism all night long. She lay in this new room. This room was much more comfortable and much more pleasing to the eye than the one upstairs.
The new room has air conditioning, a TV, and even a computer. Yuan Yuanyuan was lying on the bed and was surprised to find that there was wifi...
Yuan Yuanyuan initially lay in bed paralyzed like a salted fish, her mind full of “comfort”. But the more she thought about it, the more horrified she became.
You said there are so many big monsters here, why is the wifi still working...
She felt a little inexplicably scared and looked down at her phone. This broken phone had always been dual SIM dual standby. Yuan Yuanyuan's life number and Yuan Yuan's life number had been separated a long time ago, and it seemed that she had never used them before.
Yuan Yuanyuan only remembered that when she was in the tavern, if there was a Hundred Demons Night Parade, her cell phone would definitely have no signal at all... However, at this moment, the cell phone signal was still very smooth. She was not sure how this was done.
Maybe it's a scientific method? Or... a pseudo-scientific method?
Yuan Yuanyuan thought about these things over and over but couldn't figure them out. After all, she didn't study this, so she took out her cell phone and watched it connect to the wifi. There was only one wifi nearby, and its name was "Nanchun Restaurant".
This is the name of this hotel, a name that sounds quite old-fashioned.
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the comics she had saved. The lights in the room were off, and only the light from her cell phone was reflected on her face, flickering and reflecting her face.
She frowned and finished reading the comics she had saved up during this period.
Comics these days are not drawn from the perspective of monsters, but rather from the perspective of humans.
From a human perspective... Yuan Yuanyuan saw some different perspectives on what had happened during this period of time.
This incident was the most recent one that affected the demon world and the human world, and was also the purpose of Yuan Yuanyuan's visit this time.
They are the seven monsters that were captured by humans.
[“The monsters are asking for negotiation.” Several people who looked like Taoist priests were talking. One of them had a reddish face and seemed to have a bad temper. “I don’t know what the people above are thinking.”]
[“What can I think? You can’t get used to those shameless monsters. Monsters are always wild. If you scare them, they will behave like dogs. If you can’t beat them, they will bite you hard, so you have to be stronger than them.” Another person next to him said slowly. ]
[“Hey, I heard from the higher-ups that the monsters want to come over and have a good exchange.” The man who seemed to have a bad temper said, “I heard that they will send a delegation to negotiate with humans.”]
[“How many years have the monsters not interacted with humans? How come they remembered it again after all these years?” The person next to him asked in surprise, “Is the news accurate?”]
[“Who knows what the monsters are up to… But they suddenly come out to negotiate with us, I’m still a little uncomfortable.” Another person sneered, “I always thought monsters couldn’t understand human language… Who knew that suddenly…”]
【"Ha ha."】
[Fanning sat on the side drinking Coke, quietly listening to the conversation between the two people.]
[He went back to his sect a few days ago to take a look... Most of the sect had been repaired. This was also the first time he had gone back to take a look in recent days.]
[The disciples of the sect have all returned one after another... Fanning even saw a few young figures preparing to go up the mountain. These were all very young children who were being sent to the mountain by their parents.]
【After he left, the new generation of the sect is slowly growing up. 】
[Fanning looked for a while, but did not go up the mountain. He just slowly turned his head, went down the mountain, and took a car to another place.]
[He wanted to see how the monsters would resolve this matter, and why they chose to establish diplomatic relations with humans again after several decades.]
[You know... Fanning wasn't just slacking off during this time. He read a lot of historical data related to those years. Although these materials are hard to find, he was able to find some clues in the end.]
【Since the war, the monsters have become the defeated party. They only follow what was written in the original treaty and have a little contact with humans every year. On the surface, they seem to be very obedient, but in fact they have been secretly on guard.】
[For example, although the monsters will exchange opinions with humans on time every year and explain their situation in the past year, the number of humans living in the monsters’ habitats is decreasing... In the past, there were many places where Taoists and monsters lived together, but now the boundaries between them are becoming clearer and clearer.]
[You no longer really understand me, and I no longer really understand you. The communication between you and me is all based on a few pieces of paper. To be honest, even if you write nonsense, the person on the other side will not know whether what you write is true or false...]
Yuan Yuanyuan couldn't help but laugh when she saw this, it was true, it was something that the monster wrote on his own... Her name was actually in the yearbook, she guessed that the monster reported it himself, and the humans didn't even look at it and just copied it directly.
This is fucking... If you take a look at it yourself, can you not understand what's going on here? And you dare to write her on it.
There are more things that Fanning thinks about. [You said the monsters wanted to come... Is it to take those little monsters back? That's not right... He usually collects several times more bodies than seven.]
[Why is that... Fanning continued to think, taking advantage of this opportunity to do something? But they are doing something now... There is no reason. Apart from other things, just talking about combat power, they can't beat them now. ]
Yuan Yuanyuan smiled as she saw Tianming. The subsequent plot was explained in great detail. It seemed that Yuan Yuanyuan could even imagine some of Fanning's feelings at the time.
The first two issues mainly dealt with Fanning’s affairs, and touched upon some very sensitive issues from the perspective of a Taoist priest…at least Yuan Yuanyuan felt that these issues were quite sensitive.
There are some things that everyone knows secretly, like the vaguely weird atmosphere between monsters and humans... Everyone knows it, and it would be embarrassing to point it out, but now it is drawn so openly... Tsk tsk.
Yuan Yuanyuan inexplicably had a feeling of gloating... Anyway, these things had nothing to do with her. She was a big monster who had just "come back to life" and was not allowed to get involved in the affairs of the higher-ups, so she was quite happy eating melon seeds and drinking tea.
Looking at this comic from her perspective... Actually, if you take a closer look at it now, you can still feel that it is very different from the others. I guess no one else has this feeling except her.
She kept reading, turning the pages over and over, but she didn't see herself appearing in the comic. Suddenly, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable. After finishing the last page, she sat on the bed in a daze for a while.
Yuan Yuanyuan herself didn't know what she was feeling in her heart.
This, that’s all?
She sat on the bed for a long time, feeling confused and unable to describe the feeling in her heart.
It seems a little strange to have her around... but it also seems a little strange to not have her around.
Why should I describe this feeling... She thought she should be there for this kind of occasion. After all, she has been quite active recently and has updated a lot of content... When she is suddenly not there, she feels a little... empty?
Yuan Yuanyuan thought about it for a long time, pondered it for a while, and suddenly she came to her senses.
She lowered her head and laughed for no apparent reason.
If it exists, it exists. If it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist. It's a bit shameless to even get tangled up in this.
She thought for a long time, and suddenly felt inexplicably relieved, so she quietly made the bed. The bed in the hotel was very comfortable. Yuan Yuanyuan had just held it in her arms and smelled it for a long time, but only smelled the pleasant smell of laundry detergent, and no other smell.
The house is also very clean... When you are away from home, being able to sleep in such a clean house is a rare happiness.
Yuan Yuanyuan lay down with a thick quilt in her arms, drew the curtains, then closed her eyes quietly and fell asleep.
The room was pitch black with only a faint light... and only the sound of breathing could be heard.
And in the other room...three girls who had just come back from get off work sat together, staring at each other, not knowing what to say.
"Oh, isn't it just Yuan? What's the problem between you two?" Finally, a girl who didn't like reading comics spoke up. "I just saw a character in a comic. No, that's not right. I should say I saw the prototype of a comic character."
"I... I don't know how to say it. You wouldn't understand even if I told you." Another girl next to her said, "I thought Yuan wouldn't be here this time, because he hasn't appeared in any comics recently... If people outside knew about this..."
"The comic is drawn from Fanning's perspective, so there won't be any pictures of Yuan." Another girl said, "It feels like we are seeing the world in the comic. But since Fanning in the comic is also here, do you think there will be any intersection between the two?"
"I think... maybe." Another girl said hesitantly, "Everyone outside must know about it now. There were quite a lot of reporters yesterday. The news should be spreading slowly."
"Is Yuan here temporarily? Did the monster agree to bring him here? Did you see the real person? How did you feel?"
"A real person..." The girl next to him blushed suddenly, "He seems much friendlier than in the comics. If I hadn't seen the house number, I really wouldn't have known he was Yuan... But the voice he spoke seemed similar to what I expected."
"What's that noise?"
"It's just... a very attractive voice." The girl said, "The voice is quite nice. Before I saw the face... I was still praising the voice in my heart... In fact, I didn't see the face clearly because I was scared."
"Then why did he come here temporarily?" another girl asked, "It wasn't in the book before. Did the monster have any plans? Has anyone among you heard any news?"
The girls didn't have time to go to sleep because they were too excited to fall asleep, so they left the room together, walked in the corridor, and listened to other people's voices.
Normally, they could hear a lot of things in the corridor. A few days ago, when the monster had not yet come, the girls knew a lot of things just by listening to a group of Taoist priests chatting here, so this time they walked outside with ease.
When they turned a corner, the girls finally heard a few faint conversations, which attracted their attention.
They were two middle-aged men who had just woken up, strolling and chatting. It seemed that the middle-aged men liked to talk about things related to politics... At this moment, the two middle-aged men were talking about Yuan.
"Yuan actually came this time. We were really caught off guard." An uncle said in a low voice, "This guy is not a good person."
"I was wondering why the monster came here so openly this time?" another person said, "After all this time, it turns out that he brought Yuan with him to support him..."
"What can an old monster like Yuan do?" another person said, "It's not just guessing... He is very likely... injured in Hongshajing... quite seriously..."
The three girls almost put their ears close to the phone. The last few words were so soft... as if they were squeezed out from their throats.
"Who knows? It doesn't look too serious." The middle-aged man said, "But who can tell the truth about monsters? Old monsters are more patient, but they actually thought of using Yuan as a shield. Hiss... To be honest, these monsters are really vicious."
