The White Demon
Chapter 42: The Gift of Negligence
The old deer demon gave Dabai the monkey demon's five hundred spirit stones and some of his own pottery as a thank you gift.
Dabai was not polite, but he still exchanged some pleasantries with the old deer demon.
The old woman held Ye Qingwan's hand tightly, looking at her in a daze. The closer she got, the more she found that Ye Qingwan was different from the demon girl. "Does the girl have a name?"
"My name is Ye Qingwan, you can just call me Wanwan." Ye Qingwan answered truthfully with a faint smile.
"Ye Qingwan..." The old woman pondered for a moment, "What is the relationship between the young lady and the Ye family in the capital?"
Ye Qingwan's eyes flickered.
Oops, she was careless, she should have used a pseudonym, and her address to the old woman was too humane…
She secretly glanced at Dabai, not knowing whether this would be considered as exposing her identity. If her identity was exposed, would Dabai be unhappy? Dabai deliberately got this outfit to help her conceal her identity.
However, she was surprised that the Ye family was so prestigious.
"Oh, it's nothing." Ye Qingwan lowered her head guiltily, "I wonder if the Ye family in the capital is very famous?"
The old woman nodded, "Yes, the Ye family has been guarding the royal family of the Tea Kingdom for generations. They are a truly prestigious family in the capital, and it is said that they have existed for a thousand years. When I was still in the human domain, I heard that the Ye family has always used the legitimate daughter as the head of the family, and the bloodline of the legitimate daughter has been passed down, which is also very strange. But since the girl has no relationship with the Ye family, it is natural that I have said too much."
The old woman spoke sincerely and gently, but still spoke quickly.
"It's just that, young lady, I see that you are a human being..." Ye Qingwan quickly curved her eyes and made a "hush" gesture, then looked around cautiously again.
"Don't blame me, Auntie. My husband and I have already agreed on this matter. I will change my clothes and go. Please keep this secret for us."
"Well, don't worry, young lady. I won't tell anyone!" The old woman excitedly gave Ye Qingwan a big hug, as if she had met her long-lost family. The relationship between the two of them suddenly became particularly close...
Dabai kept glancing at Ye Qingwan from time to time, and when he saw that the two of them were suddenly becoming very friendly, he walked over here.
But when he was halfway there, he heard the old woman excitedly shouting, "Old man, it turns out they are just like us!"
Ye Qingwan: "..." What about the confidentiality you promised? But the old deer demon shouldn't be considered an outsider.
But seeing Dabai's gloomy expression, Ye Qingwan lowered her head and dared not look into Dabai's eyes again.
After learning about Ye Qingwan's identity, the old deer demon was as overjoyed as the old woman and was particularly warm. He hurriedly took out another sheepskin scroll from his bag and handed it to Dabai.
"Little brother, no wonder my wife and I felt so close to you and Miss Ye the first time we saw each other. I have a technique that is very suitable for you. You can take it."
Dabai's eyes lit up instantly.
Kung Fu is not easy to obtain, and Ye Qingwan really needs a Kung Fu to protect herself, especially a Kung Fu that is suitable for both humans and demons to practice together, which is even more rare.
Forget it, now that things have come to this, we can only hope that this family of three can keep this secret for them.
However, even an old woman could see through Ye Qingwan's human identity. It seems that Ye Qingwan's disguise is barely enough to deal with ordinary people or those who don't know the human race. Once she encounters someone with great strength or who is familiar with the human race, she will be seen through quickly.
After the embarrassment, Dabai thanked him, took the parchment scroll, and accepted the old deer demon's kindness.
However, the words on it were the same as those on the other parchment scroll in his bag, and he could not recognize them either.
Dabai frowned slightly, and the old deer demon asked doubtfully: "Little brother, is there anything wrong?"
Dabai's expression was slightly restrained, and he replied respectfully: "Old man, I don't know what kind of skills are recorded in this volume. Please forgive me for my stupidity and my inability to recognize these words."
"Oh, it was my negligence." The old deer demon looked at Ye Qingwan deeply, and then realized that not all human beings could read and write like his old wife, so he patiently explained the general meaning of the parchment scroll to Dabai.
"This is a technique for humans and beasts to cooperate and fight together, called "Like a Shadow Following". For example, when fire and wind, water and ice are combined, the power of the demonic force will be even stronger.
Of course, we monsters can practice this technique alone. It is said that the high-level part can be used as a shadow clone. One person can transform into multiple shadow clones, and the combat power can also be increased several times.
It’s just that I only have the low-level fragments of this technique, and my wife and I have only practiced the basics…”
"It's okay. Thank you very much." Before, when he was fighting against the enemy, he always worried that someone was plotting against Ye Qingwan from behind. Now, with this technique, he and Ye Qingwan will benefit greatly whether fighting against the enemy or protecting themselves.
Dabai happily accepted the parchment scroll, and agreed with the old deer demon to come over another day to learn the human language. The old deer demon nodded happily and agreed.
The old woman also agreed to let Ye Qingwan prepare some human pastries for her to eat.
The old deer couple gave Dabai and Ye Qingwan the feeling of being a long-lost family.
But the invitation to Wangyue Tower was right in front of them, so the two of them didn't want to stay long and prepared to leave.
The old deer demon couple warmly escorted the two men out the door and said, "Little brother, the Moon Watching Tower is a place where all kinds of masters gather. Most of the demons are insidious and cunning. You must be extra careful."
"Well, don't worry, we will definitely return safely. We still need to learn Chinese characters from you two!"
"Okay, okay, I'll do."
Dabai and Ye Qingwan bowed deeply and left the pottery shop under the concerned gaze of the old deer demon couple.
The sun was setting, but the two did not go directly to the Moon Watching Tower. Instead, they first spent a spirit stone at a roadside stall and bought a large basket of fruit. Then they stopped in front of a three-story building that looked like a jewelry store.
Dabai took a look at the plaque: Duobao Pavilion!
The name is quite grand and classy, but I don’t know if there are really treasures inside.
Ye Qingwan nibbled the fruit in her hand, jumped off Dabai's shoulder, and entered Duobao Pavilion with Dabai one after the other.
As soon as the two entered the door, a beautiful little fox demon came to greet them with a smile on her face.
"Hey, what do you two want to buy? Weapons, self-defense, rare medicinal herbs, our shop has everything..."
"Oh?" Dabai raised his eyebrows. The shopkeeper's tone was quite arrogant. However, he now had more than 4,000 spirit stones, including the 500 spirit stones given by the old deer demon, the more than 2,000 spirit stones in the monkey demon's bag, and those he had looted from the tiger demon and some unknown little demons. So he was not afraid.
The first floor of the store was filled with a dazzling array of accessories, but Dabai only glanced at them indifferently, and then asked with great momentum: "Does your store have any magic weapon that can conceal the aura?"
The little fox demon looked Dabai and Ye Qingwan up and down, then smiled and replied, "Dear guests, please come upstairs and have a chat."
