Yaohi Hill

When the sun rose the next day, Tokioi opened his eyes.

Although there is only a ray of sunlight that penetrates from outside the curtain, it is enough to know that today is probably a rare good weather.

The old man really didn't sleep much, Di Nian'er's mother chattered all night and woke up early the next morning.

But... I seem to have overslept...

She got up immediately, but found that a piece of clothing covering her body fell to the ground.

Shi Kui picked up the clothes and thought of Di Nian'er thoughtfully.

She opened the curtain, strong sunlight pierced into her eyes, Shi Kui narrowed her eyes subconsciously, but suddenly a huge figure appeared in her sight.

It's Di Nianer.

Di Nian'er, who was working in the field, found that she had woken up, and held the wild fruit and the prepared water that he had gone to the mountains early in the morning to put beside her.

He hesitated for a moment, then took out a small flower from behind him.

"Miss Shikui... Good morning, breakfast..."

Di Nian'er was very nervous, his voice was different from his appearance, gentle and soft, always giving people a look that was easy to bully.

His hand holding the flower was trembling slightly.

This flower was discovered by him when he was clearing the medicine field. It was an inconspicuous yellow flower fluttering in the wind amidst the blue.

Girls...should like it, right?

He was still hesitating, but saw Shi Kui standing in front of him took the little flower with a gentle and grateful smile on his face.

"Thank you, I like it very much."

No matter who it is, meeting a gentle and kind half-demon like Di Nian'er can't be hard-hearted.Even though his appearance was terrifying and weird, Shi Kui had never seen such a pure soul as the half-demon in front of him after wandering the world for so many years.

Di Nian'er blushed again, he suddenly didn't know how to answer, he just stared blankly at her and started to eat the breakfast he prepared for her.

Is this... what happiness feels like?

Di Nian'er, who was so easily satisfied, was thinking dizzily, and he couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, but he was afraid of being discovered like this, so he quickly turned his head and covered his head.

"Cough cough." The old lady who stood aside and witnessed the whole process glanced at Di Nian'er, and couldn't help waking him up from his fantasy.

Di Nian'er looked at her mother dully, and finally moved her body to the side.

When he was moving, Shi Kui noticed that there seemed to be bruises on his face and neck, and she couldn't help asking: "Di Nian'er... What's the matter with your injury?"

Di Nian'er touched her wound and shook her head: "It's okay... I was not careful..."

"It's those guys in the village." The voice of the old woman walking towards the medicine field with water came from not far away, "I have long thought that our mother and son are not pleasing to the eye."

"Is that so?" Shi Kui suddenly understood that Di Nian'er's situation might be worse than she imagined.

She was a little helpless, people's hearts were indeed so despicable sometimes, and Di Nian'er, who had never done anything bad, was targeted and discriminated against everywhere just because of his special identity and appearance.

Shi Kui stretched out her hand to caress Di Nian'er's wound, the other party held her breath because of her action, and then saw her hands glowing slightly white, followed by a hot spring-like moist feeling from the palm of her hand came.

so warm...

This level of injury can be recovered with spiritual power, but if the injury is deeper, there may be no way.

Shi Kui watched the bruise disappear, and then told Di Nian'er something that he really didn't want to know.

"Di Nian'er, thank you for taking care of me, I'm leaving."

There was a trace of sadness in Di Nian'er's big eyes, and he said with some disappointment: "Miss Shikui, are you going to get rid of the monster..."

Shi Kui nodded: "That's right."

The time to separate has come so soon, although Di Nian'er has only known each other for a day, she has developed a good impression of this woman who does not show a cold and disgusted expression because of his ugly appearance.

She was the first woman who made him feel warm and satisfied besides his mother...

Seeing her figure gradually go away, Di Nian'er stood there in a daze, and he was caught in a dilemma at this moment.

He really wanted to face that unknown monster with her, but... is it really possible?He was very afraid, whether such a weak self would die...

If you die, what will mother do...

"Di Nian'er." He only heard a familiar voice behind him, he turned his head and saw his mother who showed a rare serious expression to him.

"What you should do at this time is to follow your inner thoughts." The old woman who knows her son well said, "Mother is already old, and there is no way to protect you after two years. You have to learn to face those you Fear of facing things."

"But..." He couldn't answer his mother's words, but her eyes made the weak child who was always curled up in a dark corner see the dawn.

"Your father is a big monster. I have only lived two good years under his protection. He is very brave. I think you should be like your father."

"I understand...Mom."

Di Nian'er stopped struggling, he got the answer he wanted.

He turned around, and although he was still walking with his back bent, his pace was no longer slow.

Before Shi Kui took a few steps, she found that Di Nian'er was following her, and she asked him with some doubts: "Di Nian'er...don't you go back and take care of the medicine field?"

Di Nian'er shook her head, then said in a low voice, "Miss Shikui, I want to go find that monster with you..."

Hearing what he said, Shi Ai nodded with a smile.

For Di Nian'er, overcoming her own fear is already a rare thing.

Instead of being obedient and being bullied by the villagers, it is better for him to learn to use his own strength to protect what he wants to protect, so that he can truly gain freedom and respect.

But before they took a few steps, they heard a villager's call on a road outside the village.

"Help, you monster...!"

When Di Nian'er heard this sentence, she subconsciously wanted to run towards her home, but she saw that Shi Kui had no intention of escaping, and quickly rushed in the direction of the cry for help.

Can't back down...

He reminded himself so.

When Shi Kui arrived at the place where the villagers called for help, the man was hurriedly holding a branch, and his legs were weak and he fell to the ground.

A maggot-like monster opened its mouth, and inside it was densely packed with slender tentacles. It lowered its head and was about to devour the human heart, but at this moment, it seemed to feel a spiritual force, and raised its head suspiciously.

It saw Shi Kui at a glance: "The powerful spiritual power... who is it..."

Shi Kui didn't speak, she was setting up an enchantment, once established, the power of the monsters would not be able to harm the humans in this area.

When the villagers who were still there saw Di Nian'er, they immediately came to their senses. He stood up and said angrily, "So it's you... Di Nian'er, you and this monster killed so many innocent people!"

"No...it's not me..." Seeing the cold eyes, Di Nian'er immediately lowered her head and cried out in pain.

The monster was not interested in Di Nian'er and the other human being. Instead, it looked at Shi Kui, moved its huge body and tried to get close to her, but when it got close to the barrier, it was bounced back by huge spiritual power.

Shikui doesn't have a Demon-Breaking Bow, but as long as it contains her spiritual power, even a branch can be fatal to monsters.

The monster took shape not long ago, and its assessment of danger has not yet reached the level of a normal human being. It was very angry, and opened its mouth to bite Shikui fiercely.

Shi Kui is not afraid, she only needs one blow to deal with such a little monster, which is enough to purify its filthy body.

But Di Nian'er, who was at the side, turned his head as if he had reacted, and rushed towards the monster.

"Don't hurt Miss Shikui!"

Receiving an impact force from nowhere, the villagers collapsed into the barrier in horror, without even the strength to take a step.

I saw a huge dazzling white light suddenly appeared on the way between the monster and Di Nian'er. The villager raised his hand to cover the light, and then there was a heavy landing sound next to his ear. When he moved his hand away again, There was a long and narrow gap in the monster's waist, and its body was divided into two parts and landed in the grass not far away.

Di Nian'er stared blankly at her hands, then turned her head in disbelief.

"Did I... do it?"

He was suspicious.

But I heard an affirmative answer.

"That's right." Shi Kui's smile was very gentle, and her eyes were full of relief just like her mother's.

"You have always had such power."

The villagers on the side also stayed.

He said to Di Nian'er with some embarrassment: "Di Nian'er...I..."

Di Nian'er scratched his head, he knew what he was going to say: "It's okay."

It turns out that I really inherited all the advantages of my father as my mother said...

After returning home, Di Nian'er didn't go to work in the field as usual, but held a dead flower in a very unusual way in a daze.

The old lady who was entangled by several villagers to help her with work also went back to the house. Women are the most sensitive [gǎn] and understanding, and she saw the changes in her son at a glance.

"Didn't you tell that girl what you wanted when you left?"

The flower that was given to her in the morning has already fallen listlessly after a whole morning.

Di Nian'er shook her head.

"There's nothing you dare not say." The old woman glared at her son angrily, "I think back then your father was a monster and I was a human..."

"But, mother..." Di Nian'er put the flower in her heart, "She is not an ordinary human..."

Shi Kui's power is definitely beyond his imagination.

At that moment, he felt it.

Just think of yourself as a dream, it is the good luck brought by the gods, in this long life, you can meet such a person.

...After bidding farewell to Di Nian'er, Shi Kui embarked on a solo journey again.

When she was purifying the monster's four souls, she found a tiny fragment from the monster's body.

The shards had a soft yet familiar glow.

When she held the fragment in her hand, a long-lost warmth returned to her heart.

What is this……?

She couldn't come to a final conclusion after thinking about it, but what was certain was that because of this fragment, that bug-like thing could become a monster.

Shi Kui put the fragments in a bag and tied it around her waist.

She put this thing together with the sheepskin figure brought back from another world, and she was going to wait until the next place to study the latter in detail.

As we walked, it became dark.

She didn't rush to the next village, so she had to spend the night on the mountain.

But this is not the first time Shikui spent the night in the mountains, so she went to the forest to find fire branches very skillfully.

However, when the soft moonlight passed through the forest and hit the person leaning on a tree not far away, Shi Kui's eyes widened in surprise.

How could it be him……?
