Chapter 118: Humans and Demons Take Different Paths, Yet End Up the Same Way
"For example, Yingshan. Nowadays, when people hear about Yingshan, they never say that the monster in Yingshan is an evil monster."
It took him two hundred years to completely change the reputation of Yingshan.
"Qing Ran, there are people and monsters living together at the foot of Ying Mountain. The secular world can be changed."
Facing his firm and gentle eyes, Hua Qingran's heart was filled with ripples. "Then I will wait for you to come and ask for my hand in marriage. I want to go to Yingshan with you."
See how he gives back to the land that gave birth to him.
She heard from her grandfather that Yingshan used to be no different from other demon mountains infested with evil demons, such as Heishan, Luoshan, and Qushan. However, later, the evil demons in Yingshan were all killed by the demon king, leaving behind some good demons that had never caused trouble.
At some point, there were no more evil monsters hurting people in Yingshan. This was also the reason why she had never been to Yingchuan. All the places she had been to over the years were places with evil monsters.
"Okay." Jiang Yubai stroked her hair, "Yingshan will be Qingran's next home in the future. Come home and rest when you are tired."
Thinking of something, his eyes softened again.
"When you said that, my heart was moved."
Jiang Yubai kissed her lips again and let her go. "I'm going to go out and open the door for the wolf demon. He should have bought the food back."
Thinking that he had already eaten wontons this morning, Jiang Yubai did not make more. There were only four or five wontons, which were not enough to fill him up.
"it is good."
The wolf demon transformed into a tall man who looked about 24 or 25 years old. He was holding a food box and was about to knock on the door. When he saw Jiang Yubai opening the door, he smiled and showed his big white teeth, "My lord, I bought what you wanted."
"Yes." Jiang Yubai nodded and took the lunch box. "You can go back to Yingshan. I'll be fine here. Go find Zhao the carpenter at the foot of Yingshan and ask him to find someone to build a five-courtyard house in the village and in the mountain."
"The demon fruit is by the pond, go pick it yourself."
Then he put a money bag in the wolf demon's hand and said, "This is the money for building the house."
"I understand, my king!" The wolf demon took the silver and said, "My king, do you really want to marry the demon catcher inside?"
Jiang Yubai's eyes softened, "Yeah."
"Oh, well, it seems there's nothing wrong with it." Everything the king said was right, and everything the king did was right.
"Before you go back, buy whatever you want to eat, and bring some for those little monsters in the mountains."
"You are so kind, my king!" This was the money the king had saved from selling talismans and catching evil spirits.
"Go back." Jiang Yubai closed the door.
Seeing him come back by himself, Hua Qingran was a little confused, "Where is the wolf demon? Is he gone?"
"Well, I asked Yin Rui to go back to Yingshan to do something."
The wolf demon was a silver wolf. After knowing that Jiang Yubai had given it a name, it also clamored for one. Jiang Yubai then named all the demons in Yingshan according to their colors.
On the second day, when Jiang Yubai was practicing drawing talismans with Hua Qingran in the yard, the door of the yard was knocked from outside.
Hua Qingran looked at him, "Jiang Yubai, my parents are back."
Jiang Yubai became a little nervous when he heard that and followed her to open the door.
"My dear, do you miss your mother?" When the door opened, Hua Qingran was held in Liu Suqi's arms before he could see their faces clearly.
Hua Qingran met Hua Yixing's gaze in her arms and said, "I thought about it."
"Let's talk after we get inside." Hua Yixing touched Hua Qingran's head.
Originally, the couple wanted to go to Luoshan to exorcise demons, but they found some very strange demon catchers and evil demons on the way. After catching and interrogating them, they found out that they wanted to deal with his precious daughter.
When Hua Yixing heard this, he thought that he wanted to kill his daughter, but she thought her life was too long, so he decided to kill her and return to the capital to destroy the Lin family's lair.
He looked at Jiang Yubai standing beside him, sizing him up.
"Uncle." Jiang Yubai bowed to him as a junior.
Liu Suqi hugged Hua Qingran's shoulders and looked at Jiang Yubai. She felt a little excited when she saw his face clearly.
Jiang Yubai also bowed to her, "Aunt."
Hua Yixing stepped into the room and glanced at Hua Qingran. She was smiling at him and her meaning was very clear.
Hua Yixing turned to Jiang Yubai and said unhappily, "You are a great demon who has lived for who knows how many years. It is a bit inappropriate for you to call me uncle, a man in his thirties or forties, isn't it?"
Having said that, he closed the door casually.
As soon as he got closer, he noticed that his aura was different from that of a human. Hua Yixing's Taoism was already very advanced, and he knew after a moment's thought that he was a demon.
"I would like to marry your daughter, so I should call her that."
"Humans and demons have different paths." Hua Yixing sneered.
"Who says humans and demons have different paths? But they all end up in the same place." Jiang Yubai met his scrutinizing gaze and said, "No matter how different we are, we are just flesh and blood, and our final destination is just a handful of dirt."
"How long have you lived?"
"More than five hundred years."
Hua Yixing's eyes flashed with surprise, "More than five hundred years old is only a junior among the great monsters. You have a lifespan of at least two thousand years, and Qing Ran can only live for a hundred and fifty years at most. You are forever young, while she is getting old. We are gone, so how do we know that you won't hurt her and abandon her in the future?"
"I will give her the demon pill, and we will live and die together. If I hurt her or abandon her, she can kill me at any time."
The demon pill is the demon's life.
"You don't talk nonsense?"
"Yingshan Jiao King never speaks falsely."
"Did you pass on the news that the Lin family wanted to kill Qing Ran?" When the couple were following the clues, a monster led them to the Lin family, otherwise they would not have been able to find out the truth and come back so quickly.
Now that I think about it, the aura of that monster is somewhat similar to the aura of the monster in front of me.
"Yes."
Hua Yixing finally looked at him, put his hands behind his back and snorted, "Don't think you can marry my sweet baby just like this."
Liu Suqi patted the back of his head, "How do you talk to my savior?"
Hua Qingran looked at Jiang Yubai with obvious confusion. He had saved her mother?
"Madam, how do you explain this life-saving grace?" After being hit by his beloved wife, Hua Yixing immediately calmed down and asked in surprise.
"A month before I met you, I was traveling with my master in Fenchuan near Yingchuan. I encountered a thousand-year-old monster. I was defeated, but then I was saved by my benefactor."
"Before I could ask his name or thank him, he left."
Liu Suqi didn't like staying at home like her sister, and often sneaked out to play. She met a monster catcher, and then she asked him to be her apprentice. The monster catcher saw that she had good aptitude, so he accepted her as his apprentice.
The Liu family couldn't do anything about her, so they just let her do what she wanted.
Hua Yixing clasped his fists and bowed to Jiang Yubai, "I would like to thank you on behalf of my wife."
Jiang Yubai dodged and said, "You are too polite. I dare not accept this gift."
"benefactor……"
Liu Suqi was interrupted by Jiang Yubai as soon as she opened her mouth. "My surname is Jiang Yubai, my courtesy name is Feimo, you can just call me by my name."
Liu Suqi glanced at her daughter and nodded, "Then Yubai, why don't you sit down and talk for a while?"
Jiang Yubai looked at Hua Qingran and nodded.
"Lao Hua, please entertain Yubai. I want to talk to Guaibao." As she said that, she brought Hua Qingran back to the room.
You have to ask your daughter what she really thinks. Favor is favor, and marriage is marriage. They are two different things.
"Please sit down." Hua Yixing looked at Jiang Yubai and sat down at the table first.
Jiang Yubai sat down after hearing this and poured him a cup of hot tea. "Please."
Hua Yixingguai was not used to the fact that a monster who was hundreds of years old was so respectful to him and even used honorifics.
Humph, thinking about his daughter.
