I rubbed my aching head, took a breath and looked at the monsters in front of me. I stood up. After seeing me wake up, these monsters also lost interest one by one.
The place where I was standing was a square, and the buildings around it looked like medieval Europe. Many monsters were just like us humans going shopping, buying things.
There are very few of these monsters that are fully human, they are basically half-demon and half-human, or the better ones have scales on their faces.
I put my bag on my back, and I didn't know what to do now. This place was completely different from the demon realm I imagined.
I heard Old Man Li describe it before, and I thought that the Demon Realm was full of blood and smelled so much, and you killed these monsters, and I killed you. How could these monsters still buy and sell items like they do now?
But it makes sense to think about it, these monsters have been living in the Demon Realm for hundreds of years. If there was no basic order, it is estimated that the monsters in the Demon Realm would have killed each other long ago, almost to death.
I was just about to find someone to ask about the basic situation here, when I suddenly saw a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old squatting next to a bakery, looking like she was begging.
The girl was wearing a gray robe, her hair was messy, and her face was dirty.
The monsters passing by around him all walked away with disgusted faces.
I thought about it and walked towards the girl. When the girl saw me approaching, her eyes were obviously wary.
If you want to find someone to ask about the situation, no matter where you are, asking these beggars is the best way to find out the situation.
I squatted in front of this girl and asked, "Little girl, I want to ask you something."
"Go away!" This girl yelled at me and then backed away as hard as she could, as if she was afraid of me.
On the contrary, I was a little confused as a monk. I had nothing to do with her. Why was she so afraid of me?
Who did I offend? Am I too handsome? Did I scare her?
No matter how I thought about it, this was the only possibility. I suddenly remembered the longing look in the girl's eyes when she looked at the bread in the bakery.
I took out a bag of potato chips from my backpack, handed it over and said, "Would you like to eat it?"
The girl took the potato chips and bit into them without even tearing the bag.
"Hey, hey, you don't eat like this." I snatched the potato chips from her hand, tore them open and handed them to her. She took out a potato chip doubtfully, licked it cautiously, and found that there was nothing wrong with it.
I ate vigorously, as if I was starving.
"It's okay, eat slowly, I still have a lot." I said with a smile.
Halfway through the meal, the girl took it and ran away.
"Oh, let me go. Hey, why are you running?" I quickly caught up with him.
This girl ran extremely fast. I guess even Liu Xiang couldn't beat her. I gave up after chasing her for a few seconds. Damn, I wanted to get some information, but I didn't expect that I lost a bag of potato chips.
I looked at the monsters around me, and most of them looked at me with wary expressions.
Forget it, it seems that the possibility of asking these monsters is not very high, so I just wandered around here.
This city is really just like a European city in the Middle Ages, and the city is very clean and orderly, and there are also some monsters wearing blood-red robes patrolling the city.
It seems that the Demon Realm is not as bad as imagined.
I had only taken two steps when I passed by an alley when I heard the scream of a girl coming from inside.
I listened carefully, wow, isn't that the little beggar just now?
I jumped in and rushed in. Damn it, you ate my bag of potato chips and you still want to run?
As soon as I ran in, I saw the girl being stopped in a dark corner by two half-human and half-demon.
One of the two monsters has a tortoise shell on its back, while the other monster has two fox tails.
"That adult just gave you something magical to eat, please hand it over quickly."
They threatened the girl, and the girl shook her head vigorously: "No, I didn't eat anything."
"You still want to lie to the two of us? Are you looking for death? You are a beggar living in Xingyue Village. Believe it or not, we brought people to Xingyue Village and caused a lot of trouble?" the monster with a tortoise shell behind threatened.
What did I encounter? Two monsters robbed me for half a bag of potato chips? This would probably make people laugh to death if it were put in the human world.
"Hey, you two, why don't you rob a little girl's things?" I cursed.
The two monsters turned around and saw that it was me. They ran away in panic. Just like the little girl before, I suddenly became confused. Why are they like this?
The little girl looked at me with trembling eyes and said, "Sir, I don't want to steal your things, I'm just too hungry."
I frowned and asked, "How could it be? Tell me clearly why you are afraid of me."
"Because, because you are a monster." The little girl shrank her neck and looked at me, as if she was afraid that I would be angry.
"Monsters? Aren't you also monsters?" I said strangely.
"We are only half-demon, we can't compare with adults." The girl lowered her head and said.
"Okay, what's your name?" Since I'm considered a so-called monster, I'll do it. The main thing is that I have to ask about the situation in the monster realm first.
"My name is Ah Yue." Ah Yue looked at me with her eyes open and said, "I grew up in Xingyue Village, so my name is Ah Yue."
"Oh, what do you mean by monsters and half-demon before?" I asked.
Ah Yue looked at me with confused eyes, as if wondering why I asked her this question, but she still said honestly: "In the demon realm, the strong are respected, and monsters with animal bodies are called monsters.
Those who can take on a partially human form are called half-demon, and those who can shed their demon body are called monsters. Monsters are all very, very powerful."
"Then you thought I was a monster?" I asked, pointing at myself.
"Well, you have completely transformed into a human form, so you are naturally a monster with strong magic skills." Ah Yue said respectfully.
So that's it, damn, it's a bit ridiculous to say it. Each of these monsters hate us humans, but in the end they are proud to be able to transform into us humans.
dong dong dong
Suddenly, a bell rang in the distance. Ah Yue's face changed slightly and she said, "Sir, you must be fine, right?"
"What's wrong?"
"The curfew bell has rang. We half-demon who have no right of residence in the city must leave, otherwise they will be killed by the patrol." Ah Yue said and turned to leave.
"Wait, I'm with you. I just got here and I haven't found a place to live." I said.
As a monster, my identity can only fool little monsters like Ah Yue who have never seen the world. Who knows if I can hide from the monsters in the patrol team? It’s better not to try casually, and I have more information about it.
I want to ask this monster named Ah Yue about the monster realm.
