Chapter 11 Stories and Fireflies

Qiao Xi was silent for a moment.

——Not growing even a centimeter in twenty years is heartbreaking enough. Why do you still speak so bluntly and heartbreakingly?

Qiao Xi couldn't help but choked up, and said very calmly: "No, it's not that I have become shorter, it's just that you have grown taller."

After Bu Yue had rubbed enough, he raised his head from Qiao Xi's shoulder, then took Qiao Xi's hand with a smile, shook it, and said: "Ah, I am taller than you now, I am really Onii-chan."

, Hey, Fengyue, please call Onii-chan~"

He hadn't seen Qiao Xi for such a long time, and he didn't feel unfamiliar when he spoke. It was because he had a height advantage over Qiao Xi that his tone of voice was inexplicably wavy.

Qiao Xi: "..."

——Ah, although he may have completely integrated the identity of Fengyue God after coming out of seclusion, and already regarded Fuyue as an elder brother in his heart, but facing such an elder brother, he really didn't want to say it out loud.

And, Moon God, do you still remember that your character is a ruthless god who brings disaster wherever you go?

Qiao Xi raised her eyelids and looked at Bu Yue, her cute little face still with baby fat put on an expression like "It was too windy just now and I didn't hear what you said."

Seeing his expression, Bu Yue scratched his hair in distress, remembering that he had the same expression when Qiao Xi asked him to call him Oni-chan.

He thought about it for a while, and without forcing it, he pulled Qiao Xi along and talked about a lot of things he had done over the years, as if he were offering a treasure.

Fuyue is not a good storyteller...Kami, it is not interesting to tell stories - what's more, because his vocabulary is not rich, his stories sound simply dry.

Baba.

"I met a black monster with a very annoying voice, so I beat him up and sealed him away..."

"Oh, I also saw a temple in Yayuan, and the temple is bala bala..."

It was a very boring story, but Qiao Xi listened to it with great interest.

His eyes fell on Buyue's black eyes that were surprisingly bright due to his high interest, and he thought to himself, he really is a simple god.

Just because you were born with his expectations, do you have to trust yourself completely?

Qiao Xi tilted her head, and a smile suddenly appeared in her pupils.

Therefore, monsters have always been more interesting than humans.

Pure and direct.

If you like it, you just like it, if you hate it, you hate it. Except for monster foxes and the like, which are often found among humans and are inherently cunning, it seems that most monsters are pure and innocent.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and smiled, Bu Yue blinked her eyes, looking a little happy: "Ah? Does Fengyue also think humans are interesting? Then I will take you to see them tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay, I also want to see the interesting human beings in Buyue's eyes."

——But now he suddenly feels that monsters are more interesting than humans.

What Fuyuki was just talking about was a monk he met in a temple in Yahara who could see monsters.

That monk is not like ordinary humans who feel fear when they see monsters, nor is he like an Onmyoji who seals or destroys monsters when he encounters them.

According to Fuyue, that monk is the type who is clearly a human being but always looks like a monster.

When Bu Yue talked about him, his vocabulary was even richer, which made Qiao Xi a little curious.

Although he didn't get along with Buyue for a long time, he still had some understanding of this guy's character. To be able to comment like "interesting" instead of just starting a fight without saying a word, Buyue should feel right in his heart.

I think humans like this very much.

Qiao Xi was thinking to herself, Bu Yue's expression suddenly looked a little disappointed.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, looked up at Qiao Xi sitting on the tree, and suddenly said: "Hey, Fengyue, why is the human life span so short?"

Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment, then reacted.

According to Bu Yue's account, he and the monk have known each other for more than ten years. In this era, people's lifespan is generally not long. Even if the monk and Bu Yue met when they were young, more than ten years have passed and he has not known each other.

He is already in his thirties and nearly forty years old, and he may die in less than ten years.

Qiao Xi turned her eyes slightly and looked at the young man in black who was sitting on the ground and looking up at her.

The other person's eyes were round, and the moonlight reflected in them, clearly illuminating the loss in his eyes.

"Well, how should I put it...this is human beings. Speaking of which, didn't you already know that human beings are such short-lived creatures?"

Bu Yue lowered his head, looking exhausted.

"Yes, I have known it for a long time. But I still can't help but find him interesting. I can't help but want to fight with him every time in the temple."

Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows.

A fight?

It’s really not easy for that monk to be able to fight Bu Yue for so many years and still be alive.

He had thought they would engage in more refined activities when they were together.

"So, why exactly?"

Qiao Xi thought about it and asked softly.

The moon is very bright, round and big today.

When it was just hanging on the treetop, it was so close that it felt like you could reach out and touch it.

"Perhaps this is the interesting thing about human beings."

He withdrew his hand that wanted to touch the moon and looked at Bu Yue.

"Did you know there is such a story in the human world?"

Bu Yue raised her head to look at him in surprise, with some doubts in her eyes.

——He remembers that today is the only day Fengyue has had close contact with humans since he was born, right?

He frowned slightly.

Could it be that half-demon boy?

Bu Yue suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

His Fengyue is so simple and easy to deceive, and his aura is very pure, so he must guard against the approach of those monsters and humans with ulterior motives!

Qiao Xi didn't know that Bu Yue's mind was so big. His attention had completely shifted away from the matter of human lifespan, and instead he began to worry about his life safety.

So he just looked at Bu Yue frowning with a deep look on his face, as if he was looking forward to his next story.

"Have you seen fireflies?"

Qiao Xi asked with a smile. Bu Yue was in a daze and had not turned her attention at all, so she just said "hmm" and then stopped responding.

"Then have you seen the firefly monster?"

Bu Yue frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head in confusion.

Qiao Xi couldn't help but want to laugh when she looked at his expression - it wasn't that she had never seen him before, but Bu Yue had never paid attention to a weak monster like Yingying.

He thought, reached out and patted Bu Yue's black hair gently, and then said: "I have heard such a story about humans and fireflies."

In a mountain far away, there lives a group of fireflies. Well, in the eyes of ordinary people, these fireflies are always the same, but in fact, the average life span of fireflies is only a week.

In other words, most of the time, the firefly you saw in this place last week is not the same firefly you saw in the same place a week later.
