Chapter 397 There is a monster (Part 2)
The weather became gloomy as Grain Rain arrived.
It must be said that the twenty-four solar terms are the wisdom of the working people. It must rain a little when Grain Rain arrives. Li Chengxi had just opened the shutter door when it began to drizzle outside.
Since it was a holiday, no students came to buy sausages, bread, etc. early in the morning. Li Chengxi stretched his body and sat down at the cashier as usual, intending to start the computer and check the situation in the game.
But before he could touch the power button, he saw Xue Wenshu walking in with a bitter face.
This was rare. Based on Li Chengxi's understanding of him, this guy was the type who didn't take anything to heart.
"What's the matter? You look like someone owed you a lot of money and ran away without paying it back."
"Brother Li... Yu Qian broke up with me."
"Uh..."
It was actually an emotional problem.
No wonder Xue Wenshu had a bitter face. How happy he was when he was dating, how uncomfortable he is now.
Emotional issues are not something Li Chengxi is good at, so he has never had such troubles.
As I said, he is the type who is invincible. As long as I don't fall in love, I won't be distressed.
However, looking at Xue Wenshu's expression, Li Chengxi can only comfort him:
"Didn't I tell you that first love has no results, and you are both in the third year of high school. If you don't break up now, you will break up after the college entrance examination in the future."
"But I didn't expect it to be so sudden..."
"Of course, will I tell you in advance when I decide to break up?"
Xue Wenshu's expression has improved a little now, specifically from a bitter face to a look like he was punched...
Is this considered an improvement?
"So I say, don't think too much, just treat it as accumulating experience, otherwise when you go to college, you might be fooled by green tea girls."
"I understand the reason, but..."
"It's sad, right? I'll tell you a way."
Li Chengxi took a bottle of Coke from the freezer and handed it to Xue Wenshu:
"I'll treat you. Go back and play games for a while, then have a good time, and you'll forget everything when you wake up."
"..."
Xue Wenshu hesitated:
"Brother Li, why do I feel like I've heard you say before..."
"I'm good at comforting people, right?"
"...Yes."
Seeing Xue Wenshu so sad, Li Chengxi treated him like his own brother, and he felt a little bit sorry.
So he said:
"Don't think too much, go back and prepare for the college entrance examination. If you are destined to be together, maybe you two can go to the same university. It is not impossible to get back together at that time, and maybe you can go to the end."
"Really?"
"I just heard about this kind of thing on the Internet, but man proposes and God disposes. You can't rely on God without planning."
Hearing what Li Chengxi said, he suddenly became a little motivated, and rushed home to review with a Coke.
So this kid is easy to fool.
As soon as she left, Lei Lei also walked into the convenience store and asked in confusion:
"What happened to Xue Wenshu? I saw that his expression looked like he was going to the battlefield."
"He was heartbroken and I fooled him away."
Lei Lei suddenly realized:
"Oh, I heard Xiaoyan mentioned that Yu Qian broke up with him, so she came to you, Brother Li, for comfort."
"I was just giving you some advice. It was impossible for something that was not going to work from the beginning to the end."
Perhaps women are naturally sensitive to love affairs. Lei Lei quickly came over and asked:
"Did he cry?"
"No, but he almost did."
"What a pity, I came a step late."
Sister, you like gossip too much...
–--——---——
After sending Xue Wenshu and Lei Lei away, Li Chengxi returned to the computer and checked the situation on Viola's side as usual.
According to the content of the morning prayer, Viola has received news that the four-nation coalition has taken action, and it is expected that the war will break out within a month.
Seeing this, Li Chengxi took a look at the faith value. It exceeded the 200,000 mark again, which must be enough to deal with a big war.
Apart from that, there was nothing else important on Viola's side. After Li Chengxi took a look as usual, he turned his head to see the situation on Yang Yiyi's side.
As a result, when the screen appeared, Li Chengxi saw Yang Yiyi riding a horse alone on the road.
No, wait, what's going on?
Clearly, when Li Chengxi turned off the computer yesterday, he saw Yang Yiyi just got off the boat and was about to have a big meal. How come after just one night, she became alone on the road on a horse?
So he picked up the microphone:
"What happened? Why aren't you with Li Yingluo and the others?"
Yang Yiyi may not have slept well at night, and was yawning on horseback. When she heard Li Chengxi's voice, she took out the jade sceptre:
"I heard rumors of a monster appearing in a nearby village last night, so I came to see it."
This was said without a beginning or an end, and Li Chengxi asked:
"Can you be more specific? What happened? How did a monster appear?"
This is actually what happened.
Recently, villagers in a village outside the city often said they saw monsters, and there were also suspicious figures passing by the village in the middle of the night.
The local villagers were panicked, and the matter was immediately reported to the local officials.
After learning about this, the local officials also sent yamen runners to the village to listen to the confessions. At first, they thought that the villagers were just making a fuss because they had seen it wrong, but soon even the yamen runners noticed something strange.
A red light often appeared on a mountain outside the village in the middle of the night. The light was like a flame, but no open flame could be found. When the yamen runners stationed in the village were watching in the middle of the night, they also saw a suspicious figure passing by outside the village, but when they chased out, the figure immediately disappeared like smoke.
This was definitely not a mistake. The yamen runners dared to guarantee with their eyes that it really disappeared like smoke before their eyes.
The villagers began to spread rumors that there was a monster preparing to transform on the nearby mountain, and they also said that after the transformation, it would definitely come down the mountain to eat people. For a time, people were panicked.
But by chance, Princess Mingzhu passed by here, and the local parents had to go to greet her, so they had to postpone the matter of catching the monster.
The local villagers couldn't wait, so they went into the city to ask around, and ran to the door of the restaurant to cry, and it happened to be heard by Yang Yiyi who went downstairs to digest food.
Catching a monster is not just about finding a few monks and Taoists to perform rituals. Even the local villagers know that it is feudal superstition...
It's really a bit unexpected to have such a high level of awareness.
Whether it is to catch monsters or ghosts, the best way is to find martial artists with superb skills.
So what if it is a monster or a ghost? Even if you are beaten up, you still have to kneel on the ground and sing "Conquer", which is a very physical method.
So usually the local government will issue a reward, or specially invite martial artists with experience in this area to come and help.
When Yang Yiyi learned about this, she felt that there might be some misunderstanding.
When she was a child, Yang Yiyi often heard her parents tell stories about monsters eating people, but in fact, after getting along with a group of monsters in Taoyuan Valley, she felt that they were more like people than people, or their moral level was far higher than that of ordinary people.
Because of this, Yang Yiyi felt that there might be a misunderstanding, so she told Li Yingluo and the others about it.
Of course, it must be hidden from Princess Mingzhu, otherwise, with the character of this princess who likes to watch the fun and not mind the big things, I am afraid she will have to lead the team in person...
