Chapter 22: Aren't You Afraid?
Xia Xiaoman also felt that what he said was a bit exaggerated. He blinked and added: "Actually it's not too crazy. It's just an adjective. I like it very much. Yesterday I bought popsicles for me, and he ate it first and then gave it to me."
The so-called nonsense is probably like this.
Lilith's face became more serious. She found that the old monster Gu Cheng would have problems if he lived too long and his temperament changed drastically.
A black cat had a serious expression on his face and felt a little funny. Xia Xiaoman clasped his hand into a fist and put it beside his mouth. He couldn't help but cough, "Can you ask, what did he do to you before...?"
"he……"
Lilith hesitated, her gem-like eyes flashed a few times, "I almost killed us."
"Why? Can't you beat him?"
“…”
It was a fact that it was just a fight, but Xia Xiaoman asked so seriously that Lilith felt like she was being ridiculed.
Fortunately, Xia Xiaoman also realized that he asked nonsense - if he could beat him, he wouldn't be almost beaten to death.
"Do you know what his origin is?" Xia Xiaoman was most concerned about.
Lilith observed the courtyard left and right, trying to detect something from where Gu Cheng lived. She couldn't figure out why Gu Cheng rode an electric bike to a school. This seemed very scary to her because she didn't know what he was thinking at all.
He said, "He has lived for a long time, longer than you think."
"Then why can he live so long?" Xia Xiaoman asked.
"Because he is an immortal."
“What about specific?”
"How do I know?"
Lilith jumped to the window and looked into the room through the glass. She didn't want to talk to this human. She was too nervous when she went in last time and didn't pay much attention to the appearance of the room. She looked back at Xia Xiaoman and considered whether she could let this human reveal something she didn't know.
-
It was not dark when I got off work, Chen Hua refused his colleague's invitation to wash his feet and ran away on an electric bike.
My colleagues didn't mind either. They knew that Chen Hua's wife was different from other people's wives, and sometimes they really started to beat him up.
Today is the day of paying wages. Chen Hua first went to the vegetable market and bought some pork head meat to drink. Before he changed his habit of hiking during the day and night, he liked to drink more wine. It seemed that in the Qing Dynasty, in remote mountain villages, there were bulk wines made by Gu Cheng. Since then, he gradually developed the habit and always felt that he had something to do without drinking.
It was far less than that of now. I put a small pot and I had whatever I wanted, but there was not enough in the refrigerator.
He couldn't understand what it was good to wash his feet, it was still expensive.
I moved away from the congested road during rush hour and turned into the alley, and it suddenly became much quieter.
When he arrived home, Chen Hua noticed that a black cat was staring at him on the wall. In folk sayings, black cats are ominous signs, and some say that black cats can ward off evil spirits. He slowed down his car and whispered and wanted to drive it away - it would be enough to ward off evil spirits with Gu Cheng. If it is ominous and troublesome, it is the easiest to drive away.
But he never expected that the black cat would speak.
"Aren't you afraid of being neighbors with that fierce man?" Lilith jumped off the wall and stared at Chen Hua with a little surprise in her eyes.
The main reason is that Chen Hua's image is really hard to connect with vampires. He rode a broken electric bike and his clothes were loose. The word "security guard" could be seen on the dirty blue hat. A plastic bag was hung on the handlebars, which contained pork head meat.
"Damn it! What's the thing?!" Chen Hua stopped suddenly, looked around and then turned his eyes to the black cat.
"You're talking?"
"Of course, I..."
"Old Gu! Old Gu! It's a monster!"
Before Lilith could finish her words, she saw Chen Hua carrying his pork head and running to Gu Cheng’s door with him and knocking hard. She looked back while knocking. She shouted twice without responding, and then ran home quickly.
"?"
Lilith stood there in a daze, not moving for a long time, and then she looked down at herself as she watched Chen Hua clang the door tightly.
What just happened?
She thought about it hard, and it seemed that she just asked a vampire, and he was not afraid of being neighbors with that guy, and then... it seemed that he did nothing wrong.
Why is this happening?
The witch doubted her life for a moment. If she hadn't smelled the special smell on Chen Hua, she even thought that this guy was just an ordinary security guard.
I am just a vampire, and I still say that others are making trouble?
What a fool.
When Gu Cheng came back from school, there was no cat at the door, only Chen Hua next door was circling around the yard. Zhao Hong next to him did not work evening today and was preparing to work shifts. Now he is sitting on the steps and is eating melon seeds.
Hearing the noise of his return, Chen Hua immediately lay on the wall, "Old Gu! Old Gu!"
"You were caught watching the video of the stockings and piano?" Gu Cheng parked his car and wondered.
"I didn't see it!"
Chen Hua turned around and looked at Zhao Hong, simply climbed over the wall and gestured to Gu Cheng: "Cat Demon, today there is a cat demon blocking the road, not far from my house, and he can speak human language!"
"oh."
Gu Cheng knew it was Lilith. In the past, Chen Hua was a beggar-style blood clan near the Arctic, where birds were not shitty. He lived a difficult life and thought about how to find something to eat all day long. He had never seen a witch. He had never come into contact with anything messy after he was brought back. He was used to living a stable life. He was a little scared when he first came into contact with Lilith and regarded her as a cat demon.
Perhaps in his imagination, he was still a terrifying cat demon like Zhu Bajie.
"Oh? What are you, cat demon, a cat who speaks humans! Don't you catch it?"
"Alright, you are a vampire and should not be afraid of cat demons, and she is a witch, not a cat demon."
Gu Cheng took the bag out of the car basket, took a few shots and prepared to go back to the house, "Maybe she wants to meet you, after all, they were once glorious, and now they are still witches and blood clans when they are down."
"There are really witches? How can we live to this day?" Zhao Hong, who was kowtowing melon seeds, also became interested and turned over from the wall.
"The witch's lifespan is also very long. If it weren't for the persecution of the church, she should have been a nobleman in her hometown."
"Oh... it's also a fish that misses the net." Zhao Hong understood, recalled it carefully, and said, "It seems like I heard you mention it before."
"I mentioned that there are no more than ten guys like us now, one less dies, and I will not cause trouble for her if she is so obedient."
Gu Cheng didn't know whether it was emotion or regret, but the monster's life was not easy.
Vampire, witch...
It's a pity that they disappeared in history one by one.
"Sweep the melon seed skins that your wife has knotted." Gu Cheng glanced at the ground and said to Chen Hua.
"Why are you looking for me when she's knocking her?"
"Remember to clean it up." Gu Cheng turned to Zhao Hong and said.
Zhao Hong nodded, turned to Chen Hua and said, "Sweep it in a while."
Chen Hua: “…”
