Mo Xiao was naturally very happy to accept the request of the beautiful girl in front of him.
He is haunted by evil ghosts, so he can feel more at ease with such a supporter living here. After all, he still dares to stay even though he knows that there are ghosts causing trouble. It is obviously a very brave person with a high skill level.
As for the monster's identity, it is not a problem at all in Mo Xiao's opinion. As long as he can communicate, has reason and doesn't get angry casually, it doesn't matter whether he is a human or not.
The big heart and thick nerves he has cultivated since childhood make him fearless!
"Zhizhizhi! The voice sounds familiar. Are you the cat demon who broke my illusion earlier?"
The little hamster woke up at some point, and when he heard the conversation between Mo Xiao and the beautiful girl, he jumped anxiously: "Landlord, don't be deceived! Cat monsters are cunning guys, and they will kill mice without blinking an eye. If you are worried about that
Female ghost, I will protect you! I am prepared this time, so don’t worry!"
Killing rats without blinking an eye... Wouldn't that be great... Rat infestation is a trouble that is difficult to eradicate, but by taking them both in, the house will have a classic cat and mouse configuration. Will there be any problems?<
/p>
Mo Xiao suddenly felt worried. If they were normal cats and mice, they wouldn't be able to cause much trouble, but it would be hard to say if they became spirits...
"Hmph, I wasn't the one who came to the rescue just now. Both you and I have to become sacrifices to the evil spirits. If you don't thank me, forget it, but you still want to drive me away?"
The beautiful girl was very dissatisfied and frowned slightly: "Is this how you rats treat your benefactor?"
The little hamster snorted: "I'm not good at fighting head-on. Even without your help, I can still escape. Besides, if you hadn't broken the law before, I wouldn't be in such a mess. Your origin is unknown. Who knows if you have any
Any other crazy ideas?"
Mo Xiao suddenly felt a bit bigger than the other. To be honest, the two people in front of him were not the masters he could afford to offend. Even though he could handle the little hamster just now, it was because of his size that the other party suffered. After all, he was a monster. Listen.
The tone in which he spoke just now must be a means of undermining the situation.
Mo Xiao, who was caught in the middle, felt extremely uncomfortable, but fortunately, the two monsters seemed to be quite easy to talk to so far.
"Um...Miss Monster, and the little hamster, let's sit down and talk first."
Mo Xiao interrupted the quarrel between the two monsters and pointed to the coffee table and sofa next to him: "Let me confirm first. You two want to rent a house here, right?"
The little hamster was nodding his head like he was pecking at rice. He had been living in Mo Xiao's house for a while. The trouble of finding a new home made the hamster heartbroken. In addition, there were monster hunting activities nearby, and he didn't even dare to
Feel free to leave.
"My name is Ye Xiaoying, and I am a cat demon. You can call me by my name directly, or you can call me Xiaoying."
The beautiful girl nodded and sat down on the sofa in a polite manner. Because of its unexpected softness, she touched it curiously: "I have slept for too long. If it were still the previous era, I would still know a few people."
Humans, but now... they are probably nothing more than a handful of dirt. Judging from your appearance, you don't look like an evil person. Since I can stay in any inn, why not find a human who knows my identity."
Mo Xiao unconsciously touched his face, secretly complaining that he was given a good person card when they met.
"Then let me confirm one more question. You two know... you have to pay for renting a house, right?"
Mo Xiao rubbed his eyebrows, looking a little embarrassed: "First of all, it's not that I'm greedy for money, but I don't have much savings and I'm still looking for a job. It's okay to lend you a place to shelter from the wind and rain, but as for food...
.stretched."
Sigh... With so little money, even an unparalleled hero would be short of breath if he encountered this calamity, let alone a poor citizen like Mo Xiao.
"Of course you don't have to pay."
The cat demon Xiaoying nodded as expected, and then naturally took out a few pieces of white and slightly yellowed paper: "These should be enough, right?"
Mo Xiao was silent for a moment, and even the little hamster covered his face with his little paws, looking speechless.
Banknotes, especially Qing Dynasty treasure banknotes.
"What? Is there something wrong?" Xiaoying looked at the two people in front of him and was confused for a moment. He blinked his beautiful eyes with confusion on his face.
Mo Xiao rubbed his temples and said with a wry smile: "After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the few banknotes in your hand are basically equivalent to waste paper."
It's not right to say it's worthless. If it were given to archaeologists, it would definitely be worth a fortune, but the source is difficult to explain. If you don't mind it, you can go to the antique market and ask about the price.
"..."
Xiaoying silently took back the banknote, and the cat demon girl showed a somewhat embarrassed look: "So human currency does not maintain its value at all... So do you think this is true?"
The cat demon girl reached out and took out a small piece of golden gold ingot and placed it on the table.
"Gold has been a hard currency for thousands of years. I don't believe it has been abolished."
Mo Xiao was shocked by Xiao Ying's generous move at that time. This small piece of gold ingot used to pay the rent was simply overkill. Although luxury goods like gold were in his blind spot of knowledge, but after casually weighing them, he knew that this was at least worth it.
Worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Kneel down to the wealthy.
"...Isn't it okay?" Seeing that one person and one mouse were silent again, the cat demon girl suddenly worried.
"Okay, that's great. I'll go to the gold shop to exchange it for you sometime."
Mo Xiao quickly explained: "To be honest, the value is a bit high. It must be too much for you to pay the rent. You can keep it yourself after you get the money. You have a serious lack of common sense. Don't be deceived."
Seeing Xiaoying nodding, Mo Xiao was secretly glad in her heart. Fortunately, this girl didn't leave. Otherwise, given her current situation, it would be weird not to pay some social study fees. As for what will happen to the person who asked her to pay the study fees, then
Just watch TV news.
"Landlord, micro-X or pay-X?"
Without Mo Xiao saying anything, the little hamster actually took out a mobile phone from somewhere and flexibly scratched the screen with his little paws: "And landlord, please call me Shu Mo, although I still don't really want to live with a cat.
Under the same roof, but this is your territory, please take care of it."
Huh? Since you can pay the rent, why are you still using my basement? You are so proficient in online payment, you usually do a lot of online shopping, right?
"Tsk."
Xiaoying glanced at the little hamster. She didn't seem to be angry about this small offense. Instead, she looked at the phone with interest and rubbed her hands, looking very interested.
Mo Xiao smacked his lips. He actually received rent from a hamster. He suddenly had a strange feeling. According to the size of the hamster...a pet cage is probably enough for him to live in, right? The food expenses are even free, alone.
One meal is enough to feed him for a week.
The rent charged... seems a bit unfair?
He wanted to return it, but for the sake of treating the two monsters equally, it might not be appropriate to do so. Mo Xiao silently swallowed the words he was about to say.
"Don't look at it. When you go to the gold shop, I will also buy your mobile phone for you."
Mo Xiao stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the cat demon girl's eyes to bring her back to her senses: "This era is very different from more than a hundred years ago. Mobile phones are just ordinary things. Please look forward to the coming days.
Right."
This girl's curious and passionate gaze seemed to put Ogura...Shu Mo under a lot of pressure, and Mo Xiao had to step in to help.
Are rats that become sperms also afraid of cats? Is it a fear engraved in DNA?
