Cannibalism

Xie Sheng looked eagerly at the young man sitting in the school, staring at his profile for a long time.After a while, Xie Sheng swallowed his saliva, turned around, and closed his eyes.

"Let's go, Master Huo Ling." Xie Sheng shook his head at him.

Fanchuan Huoling was very surprised: "You don't want to talk to him?"

Xie Sheng bumped into a white wall and passed through easily: "I have had family members and playmates who died before, but I never had the idea of ​​reincarnating with them to create a chance encounter. Your life should not be burdened by me in the previous life."

Huo Ling came out with him, still full of doubts: "But that is the face of the flower god, don't you want to get close to him? The cat you raised may not be able to cultivate into a demon even if it is a hundred years old. If you and this boy Having been greedy for decades, the God of Flowers may not blame you when she finds out."

"You also said that he is just the body of a flower demon. It's just that the two look alike. The yellow cat is the real Ren, and the memory of my acquaintance with him is still sealed in his head. Even if he doesn't complain then, I won't forgive myself either." Xie Sheng had made up his mind, and stopped listening to Huo Ling's nonsense, "Huo Ling, I have been single for thousands of years, you should know that I am not the kind of monster who is obsessed with appearances."

"I really don't understand what's going on in your Tiger Clan's minds, you're really stubborn." Huo Ling expressed disdain for this, "Since your tenth brother, all of you have become colorless and empty on the surface. Saint. So, what’s the fun in becoming a demon? Isn’t becoming a demon just to play in the world?”

"My tenth brother is always ready to sacrifice for the family." Xie Sheng lowered his head, "I think the same as him, so I have been reluctant to start a family for a long time, fearing that my wife and children will be widowed by then. Ah Ren, he...he is to me is an exception."

He even blamed himself and thought that perhaps it was because Ah Ren and him revealed their feelings to each other that God would punish them like this.

Huo Ling gave him a white look, and said sarcastically: "You and your tenth brother have different ideas. Otherwise, why did the Heavenly Court make you a god and not let him go?"

Xie Sheng frowned: "Didn't Master Huo Ling propose to the Queen Mother?"

"I don't have such a great ability. I let whoever I want to be a god do it. Even if I propose it, it must be in line with the Queen Mother's wishes." Huo Ling glanced at his face, "To be a god, you must maintain the same spirit. There is no sense of alienation in the world. There are always people in your Xie Tiger Clan who want to become gods, but they can't. To become a god, you must have a disposition that transcends the mundane world and unwavering belief. In short, your character is ten times stronger than yours. Brother is more noble."

Xie Sheng was not convinced: "My tenth brother is also very noble."

"There are eight hundred bears, and God only takes one of them to bestow divine consciousness. But there are eight thousand monsters, and it is difficult for one of them to become a god or immortal." After explaining, Huo Ling concluded, "Even if he is more affectionate than many monsters in the world. Righteousness, also can't meet the qualifications to become a fairy."

"Lord Huoling, I'm going back to the fairy world." Xie Sheng couldn't listen to outsiders commenting on his family casually, so he said, "I forgot to go to thank you before, but I thank Huoling here today, thanks to your kindness to the Queen Mother Recommended, I can bring Ah Ren to survive in the Dunhuang Immortal World to this day."

Nearly 20 years have passed in the human world. If he hadn't found a way to continue his life, the yellow cat would have already left.

Huo Ling pouted in the direction of the school: "In short, I have pointed out a clear path for you, which can make you forget your sorrow while waiting. As for whether you need it or not, it's up to you."

Xie Sheng bowed, said goodbye to Huo Ling, and flew back to the heaven.

Xie Sheng didn't remember until he pushed open the gate of Xianju and smelled the coquettish smell of cat piss, that handful of soil was thrown on the ground after he saw the reincarnation of the flower demon, and he didn't pick it up.

As soon as the yellow cat heard the sound of his return, it rushed down from the second floor, jumped on his shoulder, and then meowed non-stop, probably because it was hungry.

Xie Sheng brought back a ball wrapped in sackcloth and threw it on the ground.The yellow cat shrugged its ears, opened its eyes, and looked surprised and curious. It stood up straight, and rushed towards the linen ball. It pressed its paws like steamed buns on it, and opened its mouth to bite, but the linen ball was too big. It can't fit in its mouth at all.

Xie Sheng smiled, turned around and caught a fish for it in the pond outside, and began to remove the fish bones with his knife.While shaving and shaving, Xie Sheng suddenly realized that it wasn't long before Ah Ren became a cat, and his fishbone removal skills were already so proficient.

After arranging meals for the yellow cat, he went to Zangshuge to edit old books for a day.There is nothing else in Zangshu Pavilion, but a pile of miscellaneous books.He was assigned to restore and transcribe ancient books in the category of demon gods, and his wrists and necks were broken when he wrote every day.Xie Sheng's ink grinding from childhood to adulthood did not add up to this period of time.

Compiling ancient books is not like transcribing comic books. Historians must have ink in their stomachs. They must know what to fill in the damaged parts of ancient books, know which typos are in the original version, and know where the annotations are wrong.So every night when he returned to his residence, Xie Sheng would bring some books back to study.Even if he is not as young as the children who are studying, and his foundation is poor, he must hurry up to improve his cultural accomplishment, so as not to drag down the literary talents of the immortals of Zangshuge.

The opinions of many books are very interesting. For example, a fairy who likes to criticize the current situation believes that most of the fairy books are human, and most of the divine books are demons. Humans control birds and beasts, while immortals control gods. Membership is often at stake.

That night, a colleague, Immortal Cao Shan, came to him and said that there was an iron-eating beast from the lower world calling his name everywhere, and got lost in the fairy world. His name was Yong Chuan, and he asked Xie Sheng if he knew him.

Xie Sheng immediately said: "You lead the way quickly."

Immortal Cao Shan is very envious, because most of the immortals in the heavens have lived for hundreds of years, and their relatives and friends have long since left. Except for their colleagues in the fairy world, they are almost helpless.But Xie Sheng's family is not only prosperous, but people often come to see him.

Xie Sheng brought the lost Yong Chuan back.

The heaven is cooler than the earth, and Yong Chuan's fluffy hair was frosted when he lost his way.He took out a jar of wine from his pocket, and said that he would not return home without getting drunk with Xie Sheng tonight.

There is no saying that drinking is not allowed in Xianjia.As long as the compilation of history books is not delayed, you can drink as much as you want.

Yong Chuan looked at the room of books and the Four Treasures of the Study, and clicked his tongue: "It's amazing, Xie Sheng, I haven't seen you for 20 years, and you have become an ink-filled Wenqu star?"

One day in the sky, one year underground.It has indeed been 20 years underground now.

Xie Sheng just smiled and didn't answer.He took Yong Chuan to the second floor to enjoy the moon, the fairy world was closer to the Guanghan Palace, and the moon magnified several times in an instant.

Yong Chuan looked at the bright full moon and couldn't move his eyes: "Tonight is fifteen in the heaven, it seems that I, Yong Chuan, deserved this trip."

"Why did you think that heaven came to find me?" Xie Sheng led him to sit opposite each other in front of a round table.The yellow cat sleeps soundly during the day, but at night it is full of energy and runs non-stop. It also followed to the second floor, jumping up and down in front of the window, its eyes glowing green in the moonlit night.

Yong Chuan reached out and touched its forehead, sighed: "Hey, this cat..."

He didn't go on.He already knew the identity of the yellow cat.

"Come, let's drink." Xie Sheng filled the glass for him, and the sweet aroma of wine soon overflowed from the glass.

Yong Chuan drank it down in one gulp, clenched his hands into fists, his expression was full of hesitation, as if he wanted to say something.Apparently, he came here to Xie Sheng to relieve his worries and pour out his sorrows.

"Xie Sheng, I've lived in your house for a long time, and Xie Nan told me an interesting thing." I don't know when Yong Chuan also learned to turn around, and he spoke slowly, "Xie Nan said, when you were still young At that time, I was beaten up by my brother because I was greedy for fun, so I ran down the mountain angrily, insisting on making friends with a few cat brothers who have not cultivated spiritual consciousness, and rushing to be their boss. At that time, Lin Zi The sunlight in the house just formed a line on the ground, and the cat brothers lined up neatly in a row to bask in the sun. They sat in rows according to the color shade from yellow to white. Of course, your fur is the yellowest and darkest, so you should face the front. Sit down and block out the sun behind you."

"Is there such a thing?" Xie Sheng had long forgotten, he continued to pour wine for Yong Chuan, "What happened afterwards?"

"It's fine if you block the cat brothers' sunshine, but you want to name them. At that time, you couldn't even read a few words, so you called them Binbin Bababobo, it was so ugly. After you named them one by one Yelling, of course they shouldn’t, you’re so angry that you’re spinning around in circles, just imitate your elder brother’s action of beating you and pat them with the tiger’s palm.” Yong Chuan played the wine glass back and forth, talking and laughing, “They’re all about to grow up. Big cats with sharp nails and flexible movements, you are no match for them. When Xie Nan came to find you, you were lying alone and crying far away from the cat brothers, and complained to Xie Nan. Hahaha ,it's so funny."

Xie Sheng was embarrassed when he first heard it, but he couldn't help laughing later.

"Is there any follow-up to this matter?" Xie Sheng looked at the "Bin Bin" running around the room.

"Yes. You still ran over shamelessly to be the boss of others." Yong Chuan suddenly stopped smiling, "It's just that wild beasts survived too few. Later, among these cat brothers, only one with the color of withered grass remained. The closest yellow civet cat, all the others are dead. Xie Nan also said that the fur color of that cat is very similar to the one you have now."

The yellow cat rubbed back and forth on his shoes, Xie Sheng took advantage of the situation and hugged it on his lap.While stroking the cat's soft back, he said, "It's a pity, otherwise I could be a companion for our Mimi."

"What a pity?" Yong Chuan didn't understand, "That happened 1000 years ago."

Xie Sheng lowered his eyes with emotion.The moonlight made two silent fan shadows on his eyelashes: "Yes, it has been 1000 years."

Yong Chuan saw that the yellow cat closed his eyes peacefully on the opponent's lap, and said: "The relationship between it and you has eased a lot. When I saw you before, it always barked, it is impossible to be so peaceful."

Xie Sheng touched the tip of its ear and said with a low smile, "Yes. He used to always bite me. Now he has really become better."

Of course the yellow cat will be close to him.Every night, the two of them huddled together in one bed.Yellow cats like warm places.

It regards him as a furnace.

Yong Chuan suddenly said: "In the future, I will return to the land of Sichuan and Sichuan, and continue to live my pastoral life."

His decision made Xie Sheng look up.

"I remember that you like my tenth brother very much." Xie Sheng said very bluntly, "It is because of him that you stayed on Tianyan Mountain with a stern face, right?"

Yong Chuan's mind was pierced, but he was calm and didn't feel ashamed: "It used to be, but it's not now."

The immortals in the sky are not good at gossiping, Xie Sheng's heart of gossip has been suppressed for a long time.He was about to break the casserole and ask the end: "What? Have you moved on?"

"The longer I live with him, the more I realize that he is very strange." Yong Chuan propped his cheeks on his elbows and stared blankly at the moon, "In a way, your tenth brother and your tenth brother The first sister is very similar. Perhaps Xie Nan is completely unfamiliar to you, your own brother."

Because of drinking too much wine, Xie Sheng couldn't turn his head for a while: "What did you say?"

"Xie Nan makes people feel like a spring breeze. He takes the rise and fall of his family as his own responsibility. On the surface, he is a responsible and honest gentleman, but he has a secret." Yong Chuan shook his head and smiled.

Now Yong Chuan finally understood why he didn't want to get married.Xie Nan was afraid that someone would see through him from head to toe.

If it was the first time he heard someone say bad things about his tenth brother in front of him, Xie Sheng would definitely be angry, but in the past few days he has heard two people swearing at his tenth brother.What's more, Yong Chuan has nothing to do with Huo Ling, they observed Xie Nan from two different perspectives, but they both came up with similar comments.

"Well, I got it." Xie Sheng didn't think about it any further, he changed the subject, "So, you will live in your hometown and never come back? Do you have any other plans in the future? Eating and drinking everywhere."

Yong Chuan said: "From now on, I will pay homage to Lin Poran every year. If the heavens welcome me, I will also come to you for a drink under the moon. The breeze and the moon are the happiest."

"The heavens welcome people from the lower realms every month for a few days, and today you just happened to catch up." Xie Sheng clinked glasses with him, "Come, we won't return until we're drunk."

Yong Chuan took a sip of the good wine, and fell on the cushion with his head up, his two drooping dark circles were extremely lonely.Looking at the glowing night sky from the side of his neck, he sighed: "I don't have any expectations for my life. My wish from now on is to live in a spacious courtyard with someone to serve me, to stretch out my clothes, to open my mouth when I eat, and not to worry about it." If you grow bamboo by yourself, you don’t have to worry about whether you have friends.”

"Your wish is simple." Xie Sheng took it as a joke, "but it is so difficult to realize."

The two of them finished drinking the jar of wine and fell asleep together. Before Xie Sheng fell asleep, he seemed to remember what he was talking about.The next day Xie Sheng was woken up by the yellow cat.When he woke up, he found that Yong Chuan had taken away the wine bottle and went to plant bamboo in the lower realm.

Since then, Xie Sheng has been compiling ancient books for ten years.There are no four seasons in the sky, day by day seems to reincarnate endlessly, and the sense of the hasty disappearance of those spring and autumn has long since disappeared for him.I don't know how many years have passed, Xie Sheng finally finished compiling the ancient books of demons and gods on the floor of Zangshu Pavilion.

He gradually understood why God sent him to compile history books.This errand can calm his impetuous thoughts and make him feel the tranquility and nature in his heart that he has never had before.

But sometimes he would drink alone under the moon, stroking his favorite cat, and asking himself when it would become human.

He would be sulking all by himself and be in a silent daze.

He couldn't wait any longer.

Xie Sheng's new task is to write a different story of immortals - "Cannibal Flowers".

Among the historians in heaven and earth, there is no one more suitable for writing this kind of mind than him.

He visited all walks of life, went to heaven and earth, and even visited the Huoling of Fanchuan who he didn't want to meet, and finally finished the first volume of "The History of Cannibal Flowers".The first volume begins with the birth of the man-eating flower god, and ends with the magic circle cast by the flower god Donghai.And the second volume, of course, starts with the yellow cat's consciousness entering the flower demon's body.But he didn't know how to write.

Why do piranhas and cats have such a close connection, whether the judgment method of divine books should continue to exist, the entanglement between beasts who have not cultivated divine consciousness and beast clans who have cultivated divine consciousness, and the part of Fanchuan ghost domain and Xie's A family of inseparable events...

A historian should try to be as objective as possible when writing history books, and should not have sharp and extreme views, but he can't help but add a long paragraph of comments after each incident.He wrote one draft after another, and discarded one draft after another, and every day the floor was covered with balls of paper stained with ink.

The inexperienced yellow cat was very happy, playing with paper balls on the ground every day, flying all over the room.

"No, there are thieves! Come on, there are burglars stealing books!"

One day, the quiet Dunhuang fairyland finally ushered in a lively day-a little monster dared to steal books from the Tianjie Library Pavilion.

Xie Sheng heard the yelling and hurried out to help chase the thieves.As soon as he opened the door, he saw a black bear spirit put a wisp of mist on him. Xie Sheng couldn't dodge it, and the mist quickly entered his eyes.

I don't know what kind of material is used for this mist, it is extremely irritating, and Xie Sheng's eyes have been suffering from chronic diseases, and he was so painful that he couldn't see when he first entered the eyes.His ears were still sharp, and he heard the black bear spirit sneak into his house.It turns out that the black bear spirit knows that his residence is in the outer reaches of the heavens, so he can use his window to escape from the fairyland of Dunhuang.

He tried his best to open his eyes, and saw the yellow cat rushing towards the black bear spirit angrily. It stretched out its sharp claws, scratched and bit the black bear spirit, and fought on his back.

"Ouch." The black bear cried out in pain, and there was a bloody mark on its eyelid.He was originally blind, but his eyes were scratched, so he couldn't see clearly now.

The yellow cat turned around and saw Xie Sheng covering his eyes in great pain, so he slashed the black bear spirit's eyes fiercely again.

The black bear spirit is stronger than the yellow cat, but not as agile, and no matter how much you shake it, you can't shake it off its back.Xiong Xiazi hugged the stolen book tightly, thinking that he couldn't delay any longer.He had no choice but to go first. Enduring the pain of being scratched by the cat, he ran to the window and jumped down.

"Aren!" Xie Sheng was shocked.

The yellow cat didn't let go, and jumped out together on the back of the black bear spirit.

Under the nine heavens is the land like ants crawling, and the mountains and rivers are only the size of ants.Dunhuang Immortal World is tens of thousands of sheets high, which is a height that ordinary birds cannot fly to. If the black bear spirit throws off the yellow cat halfway, will Ah Ren fall to his death?

Xie Sheng immediately jumped down from the window, and rushed towards the black bear spirit like an arrow from the string.The yellow cat obviously knew that he had caused a catastrophe, and the hairs all over his body stood up in shock as he fell.

The wind whizzed past their ears, and there were invisible and bottomless clouds under their feet, which made their bodies wet.Xie Sheng gradually approached the black bear spirit, reaching out to reach his neck.

However, the black bear spirit also noticed Xie Sheng's movements.He looked back, and flicked.The yellow cat was frightened, and when it loosened its claws, it separated from the body of the black bear spirit.

Therefore, Xie Sheng captured the black bear spirit, but failed to save the yellow cat.Annoyed, Xie Sheng took the black bear spirit away with the fairy pouch, and then continued to fly vertically down to rescue the yellow cat.

The sun and the moon are close to the heaven, so the sky is full of light, Xie Sheng only feels that there is a strong light and strong wind pouring into his eyes, which is extremely uncomfortable.Sour tears flowed from the eyes continuously, and the tears scattered upward with the wind.

Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to the ground, Xie Sheng finally caught the falling yellow cat.He slowed down slowly with the yellow cat, and finally landed on the top of Mingsha Mountain.

There is a circle of camels standing around the top of the mountain.They looked at Xie Sheng who fell from the sky in shock, as if they had discovered something extraordinary.

"Aren, you really scared me." Xie Sheng held the yellow cat in his arms with lingering fear, and pressed his lips to its forehead.

"Meow——" the yellow cat called very dull, and its voice was still trembling.

Strange, why is there a smell...

Xie Sheng raised his eyes and looked at the camel. He didn't know until he felt a hot stream on his legs. It turned out that the yellow cat was so frightened that it urinated on him.

At night, Xie Sheng participated in the case of the book thief and returned to his residence exhausted.

Today, there was no danger at all. The book was chased back, the book thief was caught, and the innocent yellow cat involved was not injured.He pushed open the door, ready to rest on the bed for a while, and then get up to read a book.

He walked to the bed and looked down, and there was a person sleeping on the bed.

It was a young man with no clothes on.The man's skin glowed with crystal moonlight, and his black hair hung loose. He was curled up and lying on the bed. Xie Sheng was startled, but years of calm cultivation made him not startle the snake.He shone the candlelight on the man's face.It was fine if it wasn't photographed, but once Xie Sheng was photographed, he took several steps back in shock, bumping his back against the door.

The first thing Xie Sheng thought of was: Huo Ling is going to kill me again.

He thought the boy on the bed was caught by Huo Ling.

Otherwise, why do you look exactly like Ah Ren?

What about yellow, yellow cats?

In the past, when he came home at night, no matter where the yellow cat stayed, it would immediately rush down and pounce on his shoulder.But not today.

The yellow cat was nowhere to be seen.Xie Shengfu shifted his gaze to the naked boy again, and couldn't help swallowing.

The author has something to say:

Not surprisingly, the next chapter is over.
