Cute Beast Food Garden

Clinging close to the man's strong arms and scorching embrace, Qi Yan, who was so desperate that he was almost suffocated, suddenly felt a trace of warmth.

Waking up from the chaotic and blurred illusion, Qi Yan opened his eyes with difficulty.In the gradually clear vision, he found himself kneeling on the solid and lovely ground, someone hugged him tightly, whispering in his ear constantly.

"I want... come back... come out of there!"

The senses became clearer and clearer, and the strange sight of the red moon in front of him finally completely disappeared from his sight, replaced by a familiar environment - he was staying in the rest room of the restaurant.

Qi Yan sat on the ground limply. He felt that his back was in great pain. The man who had just supported him was hitting his back with a stick, trying to force some evil thing out of his body. disperse.

Noticing that the boy's eyes were gradually clear, Si Dongmo temporarily left him and let him lean against the wall to rest alone.

In a daze, Qi Yan saw a familiar tall figure swaying back and forth in front of his eyes.His vision gradually became clearer, Qi Yan stared wide-eyed, watching Si Dongmo running around the room - what is he doing?

After his consciousness recovered and the chill on his body faded, Qi Yan saw clearly that Si Dongmo was holding a rolling pin in his hand and was waving wildly in the room.While waving, he scolded angrily: "Damn evil, get out, get out! Don't get close to Qi Yan!"

He frantically waved the rolling pin in the room, driving away things he couldn't see. His tall body stumbled between the tables and chairs, looking a little funny.Qi Yan smiled, but the corners of his mouth curled up, and mist gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Winter Mo..."

"Qi Yan, don't be afraid!" The man's voice was low and powerful, "With me here, don't that bad thing try to hurt you!"

He stood in the middle of the room and yelled all around: "Damn it, come out and fight one-on-one if you have the ability! What kind of ability is sneaky tricks? Get out of here!"

After shouting for a while, Qi Yan suddenly felt lighter, and the feeling of weight that was about to suffocate him disappeared quickly.The cold undercurrent gradually receded, and even the choked breathing was relaxed. Qi Yan couldn't help letting go of his lungs, and took a few deep breaths freely.

Intuition told him that the danger was far away, and he waved to the man: "Dong Mo, don't shout, 'it' seems to have gone."

He repeated it several times before Si Dongmo stopped from dancing wildly.The man panted violently, stood in front of Qi Yan, and turned his face away.His cheeks were covered with sweat, and the anxious look had not faded away.Qi Yan looked at him steadily, such an anxious and flustered man - it was the first time he had seen him.

"Winter Mo..."

Subconsciously murmured his name, but the man blurted out: "I'm here!"

He stepped forward and carefully helped Qi Yan up.Feeling the coldness and weakness of the young man's body, he simply bent down, picked up Qi Yan horizontally, and gently placed him on the bed in the rest room.

Si Dongmo looked at Qi Yan who was lying on his back, stared at him for a long time, and finally only murmured: "You have a bad complexion."

Qi Yan nodded with difficulty.The fright and struggle just now made the back of his neck stiff. He moved his stiff limbs carefully, and his eyes could not stop glancing around the room.

Seeing this, Si Dongmo instinctively clenched Qi Yan's hand.Wrapping the boy's white hand in his warm big hand, slowly dispelling the coolness in his hand.Probing his forehead, Si Dongmo frowned slightly: "The forehead is so hot, but the hands are so cold, I'm really bewitched..."

Feeling the long-lost warmth, Qi Yan's nose suddenly turned sour, and his eyes couldn't help turning red.Seeing this, Si Dongmo leaned down, held Qi Yan in his arms, and gently stroked his hair like coaxing a child.

"It's okay, I'm here. I'm here..."

The steady voice whispered in his ear, Qi Yan felt his scorching body temperature, the panic, apprehension, grievance, helplessness when he was possessed by evil things before... All kinds of emotions rushed up, and his tears flowed uncontrollably out.

"Dongmo, I'm so scared..." He cried incoherently, "I, I was really scared to death just now, thinking that I would be trapped in a nightmare for the rest of my life..."

Qi Yan cried, this was the first time he was so frightened that he shed tears after he came to this world.Seeing the young man crying in fear, Si Dongmo didn't have the slightest hint of ridicule, his eyes were full of self-blame: "It's my fault, I didn't react in time. When Boss Lan called me into the room, I saw you sitting on the ground In a daze, you searched the house stupidly for a long time, but didn’t find that smoky guy hiding on your back. Later, when I saw you kept shaking and vomiting blood, I realized the evil thing’s identity whereabouts."

He looked at Qi Yan guiltily, "If only I found out earlier, lest you suffer..."

Qi Yan leaned weakly on his shoulder.He shook his head resolutely, "I'm very lucky that you can come here." He smelled the natural and faint body fragrance of the man, and he felt extraordinarily warm and reassuring.

While speaking, there was a sudden crackling sound outside the room.Qi Yan raised his head reflexively to look, Si Dongmo immediately pressed him gently: "Don't move." He carefully listened to the movement outside the house, and whispered: "It should be Boss Lan, he is outside Get that thing."

Qi Yan asked suspiciously, "Boss Lan?"

"Yeah." Si Dongmo nodded, "He told me everything. When he entered the room with you, he felt that the room was a bit unusual, dark and cold. He was afraid of disturbing others, so he pretended nothing happened. He walked out of the house, came to get tools and asked us for help. He said that I was in good shape and full of yang energy, and asked me to come in and help you, and drive out the troublesome evil thing by the way. He happened to be in ambush outside and was responsible for catching it. "

Qi Yan heard louder and louder noises outside the house, as if someone was fighting with fists and kicks, and there were shouts from different men: "Don't run!" "Grab it!" After tossing for about a quarter of an hour, outside It finally quieted down, and then heard a burst of disorderly footsteps.

The door of the house was opened, and Boss Lan stood outside panting, followed by two boys who were equally disheveled and panting.

Seeing the wide eyes of the two people in the room, he bluntly stated the result:

"Ran."

Si Dongmo's eyelashes trembled, and he asked, "Then, you know... what is that thing?"

Boss Lan sighed leisurely.He took a small bottle from his cuff and put it in the hands of the two clerks.The two of them put their noses up and took a deep breath. The medicine made them tremble all over, their complexions turned from red to white, their weak and tired faces gradually improved, and their eyes became clear.

"It's not any kind of ghost, but a strange beast." Boss Lan slowly sat at the table, rubbing his temples with his fingertips, "It's Wei Mengyan."

"Sui Mengyan..." Qi Yan repeated the name softly, "What kind of strange beast is that?"

"It is made of smoke and has no solid body. Naturally, it cannot be injured by knives, guns and sticks." Boss Lan poured himself a cup of hot tea and took a few sips. Can't help panting a few times. "It is impossible to catch it with ordinary methods. The two guys who went out with me just now were also affected by its insidiousness, and saw a terrifying vision."

Qi Yan was a little surprised: "There is no entity?" Recalling the inexplicable coldness behind him before, but he couldn't see anything when he turned around, he felt a little unbelievable.Can such an illusory thing be considered a strange beast?

Boss Lan said in a deep voice: "Judging from the symptoms of the diners and the blowing beast and Qi Yan's experience of falling into a nightmare just now, that thing is undoubtedly the strange dream smoke. This kind of strange beast is cold, colorless, odorless and intangible. Capture, it is very aggressive and poisonous. The food and herbs that it gets close to will also be infected with its yin energy and pass it on to the eater."

A clerk couldn't help asking: "Boss, is this ghostly dream smoke wild, or did someone deliberately put it in our restaurant to cause trouble?"

"Suimengyan is a rare beast, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see. It usually appears in sparsely populated villages and towns, and lives by sucking the lives of living people, but it is very afraid of places that are too crowded. Our Luoxia Town is like this The bustling and bustling towns are not conducive to its survival. Therefore, someone must have driven it here on purpose."

The clerk was puzzled and said, "Boss Lan, I don't understand this—since this guy likes popularity, why doesn't he often appear in crowded towns?"

Boss Lan explained: "This Weird Dream Smoke feeds on human life, but it can't swallow a whole person's life in one go, so it likes to look for creatures with weak vitality to attack. At the same time, it is also very sensitive to creatures with strong vitality. Be afraid, the place where the living things are too dense will make it unbearable."

He added: "Speaking of which, Wei Mengyan is a very strange beast. It can survive for a long time, and it eats silently, making it extremely difficult to detect. It often attaches to the victim's body, causing people to squirm one after another. Having nightmares, falling into the predicament of hallucinations, and most people do not realize that they have been tricked by Mengmengyan, and become flustered, confused or desperate. Weimengyan can crush people's mind silently and make people more Deficiency and weakness.

In the process of growing up, Wei Mengyan continued to devour people's lives, and integrated the swallowed person's resentment, fear and panic into the body, becoming a part of its body.Therefore, Guimengyan is also known as the 'Wraith Beast'. "

Qi Yan breathed out a weak breath: "The moment it grabbed me just now... I suspected that I was about to be sucked dry." Indeed, after being possessed by the ghostly dream smoke just now, he felt the pain from his heart to the skin. The extreme cold, accompanied by the inexplicable fear and despair in my heart.Presumably it wasn't because he was too fragile, but because of the negative influence of Sue Mengyan.

Just now, the strange dream smoke attached to his body, trapping him in an infinite loop of hallucinations and dreams.If it hadn't been for him realizing that he was trapped in a world of nothingness, biting the tip of his tongue cruelly, forcing himself to wake up, and Si Dongmo's timely help, he might really be driven insane by the inescapable dream.

Boss Lan narrated: "A friend of mine is a spirit beast pharmacist. He told me that Yumengyan especially likes remote villages with few people. known.

After sneaking into the village, Wei Mengyan smoked from family to family, starting from adults, and then to children and the elderly. It can suck all the lives in a small village dry.Wei Mengyan, who is so strong to a certain extent, retains a strange habit...

My friend once went to the depths of the mountain in order to collect medicinal materials.In the afternoon, he originally planned to camp in the woods, but found a small mountain village with more than a dozen families on the mountainside, so he thought of spending the night there.

However, as soon as he entered the village, he felt that the atmosphere in the village was very strange.Every household in the mountain village has people, each doing their own business, growing vegetables, raising chickens, herding cattle, and chatting. It seems lively and lively, but there is a sense of coldness and darkness in which no one is there.

After careful identification, my friend discovered that there were smoky shadows sticking behind the 'people' in this entire small village. They were busy, walking and talking, but they didn't have the slightest breath of life!In fact, they died a long time ago, and their lives have been sucked dry. Only their bodies are attached to their bodies by the dream smoke, and they continue to 'live' step by step in the village. "

Hearing this, Qi Yan suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, and the hairs on his body stood on end.He felt extremely terrified, this strange dream smoke could suck people's lives, and it moved silently and defenselessly, it was indeed a dangerous beast.

Boss Lan frowned slightly, with a melancholy look on his face: "As you can see, Mengmengyan is very dangerous and very hostile to the human race. It is listed as a prohibited item by the Hongye County government, and even the animal hall is not allowed to capture it for sale. .”

Si Dongmo couldn't help asking: "Is there no way to deal with this kind of thing? Even if you can't kill it, you can catch it or drive it away. It's too dangerous for it to stay around the restaurant .”

Boss Lan said: "My friend left me a little book about rare and strange beasts, which mentioned how to deal with Wei Mengyan. This thing is not afraid of anything, except for flowers and no grass. Tomorrow Let's go to the veterinary hall and buy two, and put them in the restaurant."

"Boss, why do you go to the animal hall to buy it? Shouldn't you go to the pharmacy?"

"Ah... Huawucao is the name of a strange beast, not a herbal medicine." Boss Lan coughed and stood up, "As for tonight, it has already missed once, and it will not come again for the time being. The restaurant will be closed tomorrow, and all the ingredients will be rearranged , Throw away all the meals that have been contaminated by the cold poison of Sue Mengyan."

"Understood!"

However, things are not destined to be so simple.

The next day, the guys were arranging the ingredients in the backyard of the restaurant, while Qi Yan was in the house taking care of the Blowing Beast that was poisoned by the smoke from the dream.After eating Boss Lan's pills, the little guy cheered up again and bulged himself into a ball.

Boss Lan came back from the animal hall, and he brought everyone bad news: the not-so-rare exotic animal flowers and grasses in the animal hall were all sold out two days ago.

There are no flowers and no grass.

People who heard the news had mixed feelings.Is this a coincidence?Hard to say.Since Boss Lan knew that the nemesis of Su Mengyan was Huawucao, the mastermind behind the incident probably also knew this, and bought all Huawucao in the animal hall in advance.

"Then... what should we do? Is our restaurant just waiting to die?"

Everyone in the restaurant looked at each other.There was a gloomy silence.Boss Lan straightened his clothes, turned around and walked into the room: "I... I'll go and look through the books again, maybe there are other ways."

However, looking at his appearance, Qi Yan thought that "other methods" meant that there was no other way.Wei Mengyan is a dangerous thing, and it is lucky to be able to find a countermeasure. Moreover, since the guy who ordered it to destroy it behind the scenes can buy all the flowers and plants in the town, it must be their other escape route. They are all blocked.

Just when everyone was at a loss, there was a sudden knock on the door in the front yard of the restaurant.

A clerk heard the sound and ran to the outside, shouting as he ran, "Who is there—the restaurant is closed today!"

But I heard a rough and thick male voice: "Open the door, Hongye County Government!"

"Government?" Si Dongmo turned his face suspiciously, "Could it be Master Su who came here?"

Qi Yan has a keen sense of hearing, so he immediately said: "No, that's not right—it's not Master Su, that voice is Master Qin!"

"what?!"

While speaking, there was a commotion in the front hall.The dense footsteps are getting closer and closer, and it seems that a large number of people are approaching the backyard.

"Master Qin, Master Qin, what are you doing..."

The guy who ran to the front hall tried his best to make a smile on his face, trying to delay Qin Yeqiang from breaking into the house, "Inspector Su from the Criminal Department came to investigate yesterday, and he said that there are many doubts in this case, and further... ..."

"Su, governor, officer?"

The high-ranking official with a big waist and round arms repeated the name word by word.He stopped his progress, and slowly squinted at the young man with a deep chill in his eyes.

"Hmph... Caomin, do you know what the surname of Hongye County is?"

The man was stunned by his cold gaze, and immediately froze in place, looking at him anxiously.I heard Lord Qin say word by word: "I tell you, Hongye County—the surname is Qin! On the territory of Luoxia Town, the words of the county order are the laws of heaven!"

He strode to the backyard of the restaurant, and in front of many employees and officials present, he said loudly: "The fourteen restaurants in the store have violated the laws of Dazhu, and have tampered with the food they sell and poisoned innocent people. People are poisoned and sick! The nature of this case is bad, and the crime is unforgivable!"

After all, he pointed at Boss Lan who was standing in the crowd, eloquently, and his voice was like a bell: "Boss Lan Shishi is ruthless, poisoning and harming people, and after the incident, he secretly sought out the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and bribed him. The crime is excused, so the crime is aggravated! This official came to supervise the case in person, just to calm the hearts of the people and give the people justice!"

Under the stunned gaze of everyone, Master Qin gave Boss Lan who was standing in front of him a wretched look, stuck out his tongue and licked his greasy lips, and said with a sinister smile: "Come on, let this cruel black heart Take the shop owner to me! Immediately send him to the prison in Hongye County, and wait for him to be dealt with!"
