In late autumn in October, Qin He also returned to the capital.
After traveling and eating for most of the year, I finally managed to sort out the matter with the demon clan.
Along the way, he also picked up eight zombies, six evil spirits, two demons, and a dozen or so weird combinations of monsters. Even Qin He didn't know what to call them.
Countless demons and monsters fled upon hearing the news, most of them went far away to the Western Regions, and a few went north to the North Sea and south to the South China Sea.
The eastern territory was cleared.
As for the demons who stayed behind, their feelings were more complicated.
Some people feel like they have lost their parents at the beginning, but become balanced in the middle and very happy afterwards.
Some people are very happy at the beginning, become very worried in the middle, and cry loudly at the end.
For example, when the Weihe Dragon Palace was eaten clean, the Weihe Dragon King cried with snot bubbles. Later, when he learned that the Green Ox Immortal had eaten in the Yellow River Dragon Palace for half a month, he suddenly felt much more balanced. Later, when he learned that Qin He had eaten in the Fox Clan's Qingqiu Mountain for two months, he instantly felt happy.
Next is the fox clan. At first, they were very happy when they learned that the Green Bull Immortal had attacked the water clan. But when they learned that the Green Bull Immortal had attacked the Yellow River Dragon Palace, they were a little worried. When the Green Bull Immortal "came to visit", they cried bitterly because their ancestral graves had been dug up.
Anyway, when Qin He returned to the capital, the two of them, one an ox, one a mink, and one a mink, were all wearing full fur suits, which kept them very warm. Even the rat spirit guarding the house got one.
So mood and happiness are completely determined by comparison.
It’s okay if we all suffer the loss together.
I lost something and you didn't, so I'm not happy.
I lost but you lost more, very happy.
The amount of resources does not bring happiness to people, only growth does.
Insufficient than above, more than below.
This is true for both humans and demons.
When the demons in the world learned that the fox clan had suffered so much that even their ancestral graves had been dug up, they instantly felt extremely happy.
……
After returning to Beijing after a long absence, Qin He walked alone on the dock with his hands behind his back.
The docks of the capital are still bustling with merchants, pedestrians, and carriages, and the sounds of buying and selling are still heard constantly.
Ships loaded with gold, silver and grain kept arriving at the port.
Countless porters stepped on the bouncing crossbars to load and unload cargo as if they were walking on flat ground.
The rise and fall of the world has a very short impact on this place. As long as the canal is unobstructed, this place can recover its prosperity in a very short time.
Countless people have appeared here and disappeared here.
In the world of mortals, the pier always seems to be the same pier.
But Qin He discovered that the changes that would drive this era had already begun to appear.
There were some wheel-like objects on the dock, hanging on the crossbeams, with ropes running through them. They were pulleys. Several porters, whipped by whips on the bars, pulled the ropes with all their might, lifting an extremely heavy wooden box and slowly moving it to the dock.
The moment the wooden box was lifted, the waterline of the tank ship obviously rose several inches.
In the blacksmith shop, next to Tie Sanqi's hammer platform, a machine more than two feet high was burning firewood and spewing out steam. It was driving a small hammer to beat the iron block rhythmically, attracting many people to watch.
In just a few strokes, Tie Sanqi hammered out the outline of a kitchen knife with the red iron block in his hand.
"Hey, gourds for sale, delicious and cheap candied haws~"
At the street intersection, a tall vendor was selling candied haws with a bundle of straw in his hand.
Qin He walked over slowly, tilted his head and asked, "What kind of string is the candied haws?"
"Hey, sir, you are here again."
The vendor was delighted when he saw it was Qin He. He said, "Sweet potato skewers. They're especially crispy and sweet. How many would you like?"
"Sweet potatoes, pig food?" Qin He was a little disappointed.
When it comes to candied haws, the ones that are authentic must be hawthorn ones, anything else is heresy.
Just like tofu pudding, it must be sweet!
"This is not pig food!"
The vendor, upon hearing this, hastened to correct him: "Sir, you don't know, these sweet potatoes are a new seed, crisp and sweet. The cabinet has established an agricultural promotion department to promote the planting of these things. They are all good for making seeds, and you can't taste them anywhere else except from mine."
"How about trying something new?"
"Really sweet?"
"It's so sweet."
"Okay, one string first."
There was a pause.
"Tsk, this isn't as sweet as you say."
"Just tell me if there's anything sweeter?"
"It's sweeter than before."
"Then give me the money."
"How many?"
"Thirty cents."
"So expensive?!"
"No way, this thing is hard to handle."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?!"
"You didn't ask."
"Hey~Wocao, are you trying to trick me?"
……
Half an hour later, after a stroll, Qin He returned to the crematorium with satisfaction, carrying a straw bundle full of candied haws.
Seeing this, the cremators gathered around.
Qin He generously gave each of them a string before returning to the crematorium.
In the room, after more than half a year of eating and traveling, the three beasts have made great progress in strength and have been reborn.
Wang Tiezhu's forehead was protruding and dragon horns were about to grow out, making him look more majestic.
The little mink's body has grown bigger, and its fur has become more translucent and smooth. It flashes with light when it looks around, which is very extraordinary.
As for the calves, the changes are even greater and more difficult to describe.
To be precise, it stood up.
But... it just stood up.
