Every year there is a beast

In the mirage created by the flower demon, an illusory scene also appeared in front of New Year's Eve. The scene he saw was somewhat similar to what Wang Yan saw. They were in the same mountain forest, but there were more differences. There are no boa boa demons and little turtles.

The mountains and forests were shrouded in mist, and soon, New Year's Eve could no longer find Wang Anaconda and Yi Ding's location. He didn't know where the other party was in the illusion.On New Year's Eve anxiously searched and searched, but unfortunately, they could no longer smell Yi Ding and the others.

Not long after, the surrounding fog faded a little, and New Year's Eve realized that he had come to a hut in the forest.There was a family of three living in the hut. On New Year's Eve, he stared repeatedly at the little boy sitting at the door of the hut. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that this child looked somewhat similar to himself.

Probably because they are all Nian Beasts.

Looking at the horns on the top of the little boy's head and his meticulous painting appearance on New Year's Eve, a long-lost intimacy suddenly surged in my heart. They felt so close, yet so erratic and empty.

Nian Xi was a little distressed, he looked around, Xiao Zheng was gone, Wang Yan and Yi Ding were also gone, he knew he shouldn't be running around, and lost himself in the illusion.

Unable to find a way out for a while, Nian Xi sighed helplessly, he took a few steps forward and walked to the window of the hut.

The peonies outside the house are blooming, and the flowers are clustered in clusters, graceful and luxurious.

However, it is not the fragrance of flowers that attracts New Year's Eve, but another fragrance.He sniffed it carefully, and found that apart from the smell of flowers, it was more of an alluring scent wafting from the meat buns in the steamer.

New Year's Eve swallowed, and went straight to look inside the house.

Xiao Nian Beast's father was writing a letter, but stopped before writing two words.He frowned slightly, his expression showed a bit of trouble, and he seemed extraordinarily hesitant. After that, he sighed a long time, shook his head, and crumpled the letter paper into a ball.

Not far away, Nian Beast's mother was sewing, making a new robe for her son.She was a little restless and accidentally pricked her finger, so she silently put down the needle and thread.She raised her eyes and glanced at her husband, only to see that his expression was extremely serious, and her mood dropped a little.

Then, her gaze turned to her son.

Little Nian Beast is sitting by the door, holding a branch in his hand and drawing on the ground.Nian Xi took another small step forward, tilted his head to look carefully, and saw that Nian Beast was actually drawing Nian Beast. Although the painting was not easy to distinguish, Nian Xi recognized the Nian Beast painted on the ground at a glance.

Because I have also painted on New Year's Eve, my painting skills are comparable to those of Little Nian Beast.

After a while, the little Nian beast turned his head, looked at his mother, and shouted, "Mom, I'm hungry."

Hearing this, the mother smiled, stopped her sewing, and waved to the little Nian beast.Little Nian Beast immediately stood up, threw away the painted branch, and ran happily over.

Little Nian Beast wiped his hands casually on his clothes, and looked at his mother expectantly.The mother naturally understood that her son's stomach was asking for advice. She held Xiao Nian Beast's hand, and the two of them walked to the stove and came to the side of the steaming steamer.

Mother smiled and opened the steamer. For a while, the smell of meat buns became stronger.

Seeing the meat buns, Little Nian Beast immediately stretched out his hand and grabbed a bun without thinking about it.The steamed buns in the cage were so hot that the little Nian beast grinned and his expression was distorted.He wanted to throw the bun but was reluctant to throw the bun, so he hurriedly changed his left hand for his right hand, and his right hand for his left hand. At the same time, he repeatedly blew cold air on his hands.

Seeing this, the smile in the mother's eyes increased, and she said with a smile: "How many times have I told you, don't grab hot buns with your hands, it's too hot. There's no need to be impatient, and there's no one here to argue with you."

After the little Nian beast breathed out, he looked at his mother pitifully.His mother had indeed told him countless times, but he always forgot every time.He really couldn't resist the temptation of the meat buns. The white and fat meat buns were steaming in the steamer, and they looked so delicious that Xiao Nian couldn't help but take a bite.

As a result, the little Nian beast would always eagerly stretch out its claws and get scalded every time.

Even if it is too hot to jump every time, it will not change after repeated admonition.

Nianxi raised four paws in favor of Xiaonian's behavior of grabbing hot buns.He wandered to the steamer, and was depressed to find that the phantom could not be touched. If he hadn't been able to get the meat buns in the steamer, New Year's Eve would also look forward to feeling the hot feeling.

Missing the meat buns, on New Year's Eve, there is only the little Nian Beast who is enviously watching the meat buns happily. It is a wonderful life to have meat buns to eat.

Little Nian Beast quickly finished eating the buns. He wiped his mouth and ran to the father who wrote the letter. He leaned on the table on his toes: "Father, can I go out to play today?"

Hearing the voice, the father's eyes moved from the blank paper to the little Nian Beast. He put away his distress, and responded with a smile: "You must live in harmony with the monsters in the mountains and forests, and you must not fight, you understand?"

Little Nian Beast nodded with certainty: "Yes, I know."

Then, Nian Beast stared straight at the cabinet opened by his father. His father took out two firecrackers from the cabinet and handed them to Nian Beast.

Xiao Nian Beast triumphantly took the firecrackers and went out. He ran so fast that he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Nian Xi turned his head and glanced at the little Nian beast that ran away, and then at the two remaining people in the house. He was hesitating whether to go out with the little Nian beast, but the atmosphere in the room affected his decision.After Xiaonian Beast went out, the expressions of Xiao Nian Beast's parents sank in unison.

Nian Beast's mother walked to the table, while Nian Beast's father quietly held his wife's hand.

The mother's tone was particularly worried: "Is the situation very bad?"

At the same time as the voice sounded, the strength in Nian's father's hands increased a little, he was frowning, and his voice couldn't help but lowered a little: "I received the order from the king, let us set off tomorrow to the Demon King Palace, the king wants to see Xi .”

Nian Mu's hand trembled slightly, her eyes were full of frustration: "The king promised to let us leave before, I thought he was already willing to let Xi go. Who knows, he changed his mind so quickly."

Father Nian held his wife's hand tightly, trying to hide the pain in his heart: "Perhaps, this is really a doomed catastrophe, and we cannot avoid it."

Leaning against her husband, the mother's eyes glistened with tears, "Going back this time, there will be more bad luck than good luck."

However, if they don't go back, the lives of their parents, brothers and sisters are all in the hands of the Demon King.What's more, they have no choice.

"We can't go anymore." Father Nian smiled bitterly, and he glanced at the forest outside the window: "The guards sent by the king have already surrounded the forest in secret, and we are not going anywhere except the Demon King's Palace. The king insisted In this way, I will do my best to complete the task in exchange for the safety of my parents, brothers and sisters, and regain the trust of the king."

Father Nian paused while talking, he thought for a while, and stared at his wife: "I contacted Xu Huo and made the worst plan. If my trip can't change the king's mind, don't hesitate to take Xi to go immediately. Find Xu Huo, Xu Huo will help you."

The wife shook her head in pain, her eyes turned red instantly: "I don't want to leave you."

Looking at the crying partner in front of him, Nian's father fell into silence. After a long time, he said quietly, "Sorry, I couldn't give you a stable and happy life."

After that, the two never spoke a word again.

With his chin resting against the window on New Year's Eve, he looked and looked at the two people in front of him, but he still couldn't remember them. He felt as if he knew them, but he seemed to have never seen them.

Scratching his head tangled, desperately recalling New Year's Eve.In his memory, he followed the mountain god from childhood.The mountain god is very poor, because the mountains and forests there are particularly barren, and he lives in a remote village that is too difficult for everyone to live in.

There are not even a few trees there.

On New Year's Eve, follow the mountain god to have a full meal and a hungry meal. Although such days are very poor, there is no crisis.Not to mention demons and gods, even ghosts are extremely rare.

Then one day, a passing crow fainted from thirst and fell from mid-air. Nianxi kindly gave the crow a tile of water. The crow gratefully told Nianxi an important news that changed Nianxi's fate.

In Wan Yao City, Crow saw a notice saying that the Nian Beast who shouldered the heavy responsibilities of the New Year was old and frail, and a young Nian Beast was urgently needed to take over the position.Notices are issued every year, but no Nian Beast goes every year.There are rumors in the demon world that the Nian beast has disappeared.

The crow did not expect that in such an inaccessible place, there were still Nian beasts.

After thinking about it for two full months, New Year's Eve decided to change his life as a beast. He took the dry food prepared for him by the mountain god, and rushed to the City of Demons full of confidence, taking over this sacred and glorious family task.

The New Year's Eve is still fresh in his memory. He received the imperial gift token representing his identity from a very old Nian beast, and got the first errand in his life.The old beast held Nianxi's hand tightly, and burst into tears: "It's been too long, I thought that there would be no Nian beast in the world except me. God's will, in my lifetime, I can still see a surviving child."

New Year's Eve was confused, and the old beast didn't explain, just muttering to himself.Nian Xi felt that the old beast might just be too lonely.

On the New Year's Eve when I have an errand, every New Year's Eve, I happily go to the world to perform tasks.In addition to the fact that the world is not very friendly to him, there is another big knot on New Year's Eve, why only one day a year can I receive the money, and life can hardly continue.

The life in Wan Yao City is similar to the poor life of following the mountain god, just as miserable.

Year after year, after the New Year's Eve, he realizes that it is difficult to find his kindred in the world.On the New Year's Eve, I heard from the monsters that the beast clan rebelled in the past and was wiped out by the monster king at that time. Only a one-eyed and lame old beast fell half-dead in the pile of corpses and escaped.

The old demon king passed away, and the demon world was in turmoil. The demon kings were replaced frequently. No one could control the chaos in the demon world. The lives of monsters, big and small, were miserable.

Until Xiao Zheng appeared.

No one believed that this young monster actually took over the ruling power of the demon world, let alone that he actually stabilized the demon world.

The new demon king came to the throne and recovered the surviving old beast.

The appearance of the New Year's Eve was absolutely unexpected. Everyone was talking about what kind of monsters would be guarding the New Year after the Nian Beast was extinct, and the New Year's Eve suddenly appeared.

Fortunately, the current new demon king is a good king, so he doesn't have to worry about his safety in the demon world on New Year's Eve.However, for the problem of only one day of silver per year, New Year's Eve has been sad for a long time.

Usually, except for the reflection in the water, it is almost impossible to see Nian Beast in other environments, so the family of Nian Beast in front of him gives New Year's Eve a very special feeling.

He wished to get closer, but the current distance was already the limit, and New Year's Eve couldn't touch the other Nian beasts, so he could only watch them from a distance.

After a while, the sound of rain was heard on New Year's Eve, and the mountain hut gradually faded in the sound of rain.

The whole mountain forest was hazy in the rain, only the peonies outside the house were still blooming brilliantly, the peony flowers were so clear and gorgeous, as if they were telling everything they had seen.

The rain fell on Nian Xi's body, it was cool, and Nian Xi frowned unhappily, he smelled the smell of blood.Looking up at the sky on New Year's Eve, it was blood, and what fell from the sky was blood rain.

Suddenly, a mournful cry drifted past his ears.

In the rain of blood, a person shouted loudly, desolately and sadly: "Xi, run quickly. Run forward, don't look back."

On New Year's Eve, I looked around, but saw nothing.

The rain of blood blurred the world in front of him.
