Novelette Waves, Waves

When Xu Kai went to the market to buy vegetables recently, he saw many new seafood varieties that he had never seen before.

The little brother who sells crabs, I don’t know where to import the long and bright yellow crabs.

The crab's limbs are tied with nylon ropes. Except for the color of the back shell, this crab looks no different from other ordinary crabs.

Brother Crab saw Xu Kai looking at the yellow crab, and immediately spared no effort to introduce this new breed of crab.

"I just got this crab from a fisherman who went out to sea. It's different from ordinary crabs. Even those who are allergic to crabs can eat it!"

"So miraculous?"

"Really, you buy it back and try it, the allergies are mine!"

"How to sell?"

......

Xu Kai finally bought eight yellow crabs at a friendly price of [-] each, which is said to be a loss.

"The ones in Yangcheng Lake are not so expensive."

Xu Kai muttered and went home with the crab.

In fact, he doesn't like eating crabs very much, but when Lin Shen was chatting with him last night, he remembered that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. In the past, he and Father Xu spent the Mid-Autumn Festival together, and the two went to the vegetable market to buy some crabs , a few ounces of rice wine, sitting in the yard and eating crabs while admiring the moon.

The crabs in the Mid-Autumn Festival are the most plump, and the crab roe inside is dense and thick. When paired with rice wine, this delicacy is worth gold.

Xu Kai was immersed in memories, describing the plump crabs, and the salivary glands secreted extremely fast.

"Lin Shen, do you usually eat hairy crabs or swimming crabs in autumn?"

"Our family doesn't eat crabs."

"Why? Crabs are so delicious."

Xu Kai only found out after asking, because Lin Shen suffered from acute urticaria since he ate crabs since he was a child, and his family has never bought crabs.

"Allergy, what a pity, such a delicious thing."

"You like it, I'll make it for you tomorrow."

"It's boring to eat alone."

How could Xu Kai do such a boring thing, even though he muttered "too expensive", he still brought eight big crabs back.

"Lin Shen, I've bought something and I'm back."

When Xu Kai came back, Lin Shen was squatting in the yard burning paper, and when he saw Xu Kai came back, he immediately stood up.

"You're back."

Xu Kai threw the vegetable basket to Lin Shen in a good mood.

Lin Shen opened the vegetable basket and found eight crab-like creatures lying in it.

"This is?"

Xu Kai sat on the stone chair in the yard.

"Crab, is this also the first time you see a yellow crab, me too!"

"Yellow crab?"

"Yes, the guy who sells crabs said that this is the newest variety, it is not allergic, and it exists for people with allergies like you."

Xu Kai continued.

"It's strange to say that there are many new varieties in the vegetable market in the town that I haven't mentioned before. In addition to this crab, I also saw eels with sharp teeth and apples that bleed... "."

Listening to Xu Kai's thoughts, Lin Shen took out the strange yellow crab in the basket, looked at it carefully, and frowned.

That night, Xu Kai dreamed of the previous dream again.

There was still a gloomy atmosphere in the dream.

Unlike the previous dreams, this time the cliff did not have the previous cracks.

He approached slowly.

He saw clearly the sword stuck on the cliff in front of him.

There were vaguely engraved words on the hilt of the sword, and he took a closer look, and saw the word "暂惟" engraved on it in traditional Chinese characters.

He wanted to take out the sword, but when he was pulling it out, Lin Shen's voice came from behind him.

Xu Kai subconsciously turned around and it turned out to be Lin Shen.

Lin Shen was wearing an apron, holding a large plate of braised pig's trotters and calling him tenderly.

"Let's go home and eat."

Xu Kai's hand that drew his sword trembled slightly, and suddenly his feet softened, and Xu Kai fell into the abyss.

Xu Kai woke up from his dream covered in sweat.

It was getting light outside, and the hands of the clock inside the house showed that it was 05:30 in the morning.

Soon he sensed that something was wrong.

There is no sound of sparrows outside the window?

This eerie silence made him smell a danger signal.

'Lin Shen! 'He suddenly thought of Lin Shen in the other room, would he be in danger?

Xu Kai put on his clothes and got off the bed to pick up the mahogany sword. At this moment, a pair of hands stretched out from the darkness and pulled Xu Kai.

Xu Kai subconsciously drew his sword.

"it's me."

"Lin Shen!"

"Hush."

"What happened."

Lin Shen didn't answer but put his wrist into Xu Kai's mouth.

Xu Kai suddenly felt a fishy smell filling his entire mouth.

He knew how valuable Onmyoji's blood was, so Xu Kai swallowed it all, enduring the fishy smell.

"You go out with me in a while, don't panic, follow me."

Lin Shen's serious words made Xu Kai realize the seriousness of the situation.

Xu Kai followed behind Lin Shen and walked out of the room holding the sword.

There was a dead silence outside.

A breeze blew, and Xu Kai smelled a sweet and fishy smell in the air.

Like... like blood!

The residents of the small town are probably in danger.

Suddenly there was a roar from behind Xu Kai, and Xu Kai immediately smelled a smell of shame and rushed towards him.

Xu Kai turned his head to look, and saw an unknown creature that looked like a human but was not breathing at him with its bloody mouth open.

Its head was less than three inches away from Xu Kai, and Xu Kai subconsciously raised his sword to block his face.

Behind him, Lin Shen chopped off the thing's head with a clean sword.

"What is this stuff."

Xu Kai said to himself, he has accompanied his father to collect demon corpses for so many years, and he has never seen any kind of ghosts, zombies of different levels, all kinds of ghosts that harm the villagers.This is the first time I have seen such a weird looking thing.

The frightening thing is that when he approached, his mahogany sword and red thread copper coins didn't respond at all.

This can only show that the creature in front of him does not belong to any type of zombie or goblin!

If all these things appear in Lin County, no wonder the Onmyoji's Onmyoji techniques are all ineffective in front of them.

By the time they reached the center of the town, the sun had already set.

The once lively town has now become chaotic.

Xu Kai passed Aunt Hong's noodle shop, the signboard of the noodle shop was crooked, and the seats in the room were tattered and no one was complete.

Xu Kai rushed into the noodle shop to find Aunt Hong, but found Aunt Hong's earrings on a handful of fresh cockscombs.

It was when they went on a business trip to Hainan, and Dad bought it for Aunt Hong.

He was embarrassed to give it to her, but Xu Kai gave it to her.

"Aunt Hong turned into a cockscomb? '

A terrible thought came to Xu Kai's mind.

All this inexplicable arrival made Xu Kai feel a little indigestion.

"About half a year ago, a demon disaster appeared in Xiaoluo Town, not far from Qinghua Town."

Lin Shen expressed his guess.

The demon disaster has not appeared for hundreds of years.

Since half a year ago, creatures that have never been seen before have appeared one after another in Xiaoluo Town, such as strangely colored crabs and red cauliflowers, because the basic shape and taste are the same as what everyone knows.

The townspeople just thought they had discovered a new edible variety and didn't take it seriously.

As time went by, huge and powerful humanoid creatures gradually appeared in Xiaoluo Town.

Those are all bloodthirsty and ferocious, attacking anyone they see.

The most frightening thing is that these things are not afraid of any yin and yang techniques, mahogany swords, black dog blood, and spells have no effect on them.

Under the attack of these things, Xiaoluo Town suffered heavy casualties.

As we all know, Onmyoji is generally divided into talisman repair and art repair.

Skill-oriented cultivators like Father Xu and Lin Shen can hold swords.

Although there are more than a dozen onmyojis in Xiaoluo Town, most of them are talisman cultivators.

That is to rely on talismans to subdue evil spirits.

Facing these extremely ferocious evil spirits that descended out of thin air, they were helpless.

Gradually, the population of Xiaoluo Township showed a negative growth trend.

Seeing that the consequences were getting more and more serious, the onmyojis in the town fled one after another to save their lives. .

Only the poor townspeople are left alone to fight against the demon.

As a kind-hearted onmyoji from the town next door, Xu You couldn't just leave him dead. He flew to Luoyang with a letter, hoping that Lin Shen would come to Qinghua Town to take his place for a period of time, while he himself went to Xiaoluo Town next door to save Xiaoluo. Luo Zhenmin.

Father Xu has been working hard to control the development of the situation until Xu Kai bought yellow crabs from the vegetable market.

Lin Shen began to realize that the crisis was coming.

Sure enough, this happened that night.

"I'm going to Xiaoluo Town!
