I'm a thousand years older than you

When Uncle Fang sent Bai Zhi's case over, he mentioned that the monsters in Xijing were disappearing one after another, but he didn't pay attention at that time.Right now, he plans to start investigating from the clues, and looking at these disappearance cases, no matter how he looks at it, he feels that there is an ulterior conspiracy behind it.

"These three monsters were judged to be missing last month, but judging from the time, there has been no news since the beginning of the year." Wen Zihe flipped through a thin page, his eyes resting on the monster's name, "They are a small family, and none of them can change form yet."

Bi Yao stood straight, frowning: "No one came to investigate."

Generally, such abnormal events registered in the Sanlao Pavilion will be reported to the head of the local management even if they are not reported to "Wuyi".The Dilu tribe lives in Fengqi Mountain. Although they don't care about Xijing, they are not so bold that they don't even send someone out to take a look.

The disappearance case dragged on for half a year. If those monsters were really taken away, their bones might have been turned into scum.

"You take time to go back to the mountain. Go and find out if the people of the Dilu Clan know about this." Wen Zihe didn't pay much attention, and sat on the bed as soon as he got up from the ground, "I'll go to their invisible clan to have a look look."

Ordinary humans should not be able to catch monsters. After all, monsters have lived for so many years and are good at concealment. The Taoist priest of the devil is only Daoist Ruan, who is obsessed with learning, no matter how interested in monsters, he can't do the thing of kidnapping people for half a year.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a soft knock on the door: "Can I come in?"

He quickly got up, tore off the map on the wall, folded it, stuffed it into a messy pile on the ground, and said, "Yes."

The door was quickly pushed open, and Lu Yebai poked his head in from the outside: "What are you doing?"

Bi Yao remembered that Wen Zihe said that there is no need to hide it from him, so he answered straightly: "We are analyzing the case of the disappearance of monsters."

Wen Zihe: "..."

Only then did he realize that he hadn't thought carefully before and didn't explain clearly to Bi Yao.What he originally wanted to express was that if Lu Yebai wanted to ask about monsters, he could say so. Unexpectedly, Bi Yao was so rigid, "Tell him everything."

Time cannot be turned back, and the young master who accidentally said the wrong thing can only swallow the pain.

"I," Lu Yebai looked a little nervous, and suppressed a trace of excitement, "Can I take a look? I, just take a look."

This kid's curiosity is simply too strong, and he actually wants to put his hands on the case he is in charge of. Does he think his life is not long enough or his life is not long enough?

"What's there to see?" Wen Zihe scowled.He recently discovered that as long as he treats Lu Yebai as an uneasy brat, the embarrassment in his heart can be eliminated a lot.

"Zihe, you don't look fierce at all with a straight face." Lu Yebai imitated his straight face, and then said with a smile, "It's still pretty."

Wen Zihe was molested by the brat, and was speechless.

Most of the time, he didn't know how to answer Lu Yebai's words. As a result, that kid often sneaked up on him recently. When he was unprepared, he said some random things. None, I can only wait in my heart for the awkwardness to subside by itself.

"Master says that true knowledge comes from practice." Lu Yebai seems to want to make a big death in his life. He just knew that there are monsters in the world for a few days, and he can't wait to get in touch with monsters. "I want to see What kind of ghosts are in society now?"

"It will be dangerous." Wen Zihe said, "What if something happens to you?"

"I'm just taking a look, and I will never interfere." Lu Yebai promised, "Satisfy my curiosity, and I will never cause trouble."

He definitely wanted to mix things up, Wen Zihe sighed, and found that everyone in his family had different appearances, except for the gentle killer, and the noble and glamorous silly girl, and now there is another voice Don't bother me.

In the end, I don't know what method Troublesome used, and it really made him see those files.It is said to be a case file, but it is actually only three thin sheets of paper, each of which records the basic information of the missing monster and the basis for determining the disappearance.

"Mountain lotus root." Lu Yebai muttered the name of the first missing monster, "It sounds delicious, and it feels crispy."

"There are some monsters, because of congenital defects, they can't transform into human form for the rest of their lives, and their cultivation is very average." Wen Zihe ignored Lu Yebai's reverie, but still kindly gave a background introduction, "These monsters unite to form They formed a small family that supports each other, called 'Intangible'. The three missing monsters, Shanou, Changyu, and Migrating Bird, all belong to this family."

Lu Yebai asked the young master for instructions with his eyes, and said as if he was speaking in class: "I have heard of this long-legged scorpion. It was first recorded in a book "Tanzhou Zhiwei", which should be in the Tang Dynasty. The book It is said that it is "more than eight feet long and shaped like a flat bead. Cooking its feet can cure foot diseases."

To put it bluntly, it is a big spider with very long legs.

This young man spent almost all day and night reading at Ruan Zhenren's house, and he really learned some skills.But he doesn't have a photographic memory, and he can remember this monster so carefully only because he can't pronounce the word "躄", so he looked it up in the dictionary.

Wen Zihe glanced at him: "Do you really like reading these monster books so much?"

Lu Yebai: "I like it."

Wen Zihe was silent for a while: "I have some books there, I will pick them out for you later."

The ban has been relaxed, Lu Yebai thought very proudly, he is gradually allowing me to enter his world.

He forcibly stopped his reverie and turned his gaze back to the file.I don't know where the heavy taste came from, so I guessed: "They, will they... be caught and eaten?"

Bi Yao shook his head and answered seriously: "Probably not. The cure for foot disease recorded above is for human beings. This kind of book is outdated, and even if someone reads it, they may not believe it. If monsters eat monsters, they will not grow up." No matter how much you practice, you will still be wanted by the family, and now there are very few monsters eating each other."

That's right, now that medical care is so advanced, what foot disease can't be cured?Lu Yebai thought, and then searched the names of the other two monsters in his mind, but it was fruitless. After all, his head is not a digital library, and everything can be stuffed into it.

"It's late. Go to bed." Wen Zihe suddenly said to him.

Lu Yebai knew that he didn't want to get in touch with him anymore, and he didn't want to be too obsessive. After all, his understanding of monsters was still at the level of theoretical knowledge, and staying here would also add to the confusion, so he said sensiblely: "Okay .You...don't go to bed too late."

Wen Zihe had put himself in the role of "Elder Lu Yebai" for a long time, and after hearing this sentence, he was actually touched by "being cared by the bear child", and agreed: "No."

This soft sentence is like a small stone, quietly thrown into someone's heart wave, creating small ripples.

Nanzhou City, which is adjacent to Xijing, is mountainous, and it is more like a base camp occupied by monsters.

Almost all the monsters in the Monster Clan live in Fengqi Mountain in Nanzhou, but those monsters who can't change form live in another place called Lingge Mountain.

There is no talk of discord within the clan, but because the mountain is rich in water, lush with vegetation, and full of moonlight energy, it is most suitable for cultivation. Apart from the small area, it is the most ideal place for the monster clan to live in seclusion.Duan Yanlin, head of the Firebird Clan, was the patriarch of the Monster Clan back then, so he decided to give this small place to the Wuxing Clan, which can be regarded as a disguised form of protection.

Wen Zihe went all the way unimpeded, and put the information on the missing Yaokou in front of the Patriarch of the Invisible Clan, only to find that the other party looked dazed and knew nothing.

"Although we say we have me as the Patriarch, everyone is used to doing whatever they want, and they never report when they go out." The invisible Patriarch is a four-legged beast, like a horse, with a pair of antlers. Didn't even know they were going down the mountain."

Wen Zihe completely lost his temper with the Patriarch: "You have been like this for thousands of years?"

"That's right." The Intangible Patriarch has a huge size, but his voice is as soft as a mosquito humming, "Generally everyone stays here to practice, so why would anyone want to run out. Let's practice, although I haven't seen anyone who has cultivated it. Personally, but always unwilling to give up, who is willing to be the weakest and smallest force? We..."

"Wait a minute." Wen Zihe interrupted the topic of him running farther and farther, "If the barrier in the mountain is broken, do you feel it here?"

"This is there." The Intangible Patriarch finally said something decent, "But I have never sensed it."

Let's consider this invisible patriarch as a serious patriarch, he can't sense the barrier being broken, which means that the three monsters didn't sneak out, but came out through the "door" of the barrier.

"Is there always someone who guards the gate?"

"Yes." The Invisible Patriarch said, "It's the missing 'Migratory Bird'."

Then, belatedly, he hugged his head and shouted: "So our 'gate' hasn't been guarded for half a year!"

Well, this case cannot be investigated any further.

Wen Zihe suppressed the anger in his heart, and continued to maintain a reasonable look: "It means that your monsters, big and small, are all in a state of stocking - how do you contact them in case of emergency?"

The invisible Patriarch was probably still immersed in the panic that no one was watching the door. Hearing this, his big copper bell-like eyes blinked twice, and he was a little silly.

He said, "Just shout at the top of the mountain."

Wen Zihe: "..."

"However, the migratory bird is the gatekeeper. There is something on his body, which is implanted and will not fall out." The invisible Patriarch may see the young master's expression is too bad, and he is afraid that he will eat him, so he added cautiously, "Yes With one nail of our people's 'tracking', with the other nail, migratory birds can be found."

It sounds similar to what he put on Second Uncle Bai back then. This little broken family finally has something they can get their hands on.

"Take me to find him."

The author has something to say: Author's Note: The monsters in this article are all made up.

I also made up the phrase "the foot is more than eight feet long and shaped like a flat bead. Cooking the foot can cure foot diseases."

I heard that there is an ancient name for spiders called Bianzhu, but I can't find it after further research, so let's do it hehehe.
