Yokai grocery store

The big warm orange pier slid down from the wall and fell into the haystack with a plop, squashing a piece of green shoots, causing endless wailing.

—It turned out to be a big orange cat.

It was lying on its back and was thrashing its limbs vigorously. It turned over and stood still. Looking at Shen Qingzhuo and the dragon wagging its tail, it was so angry that its fluff exploded, and asked in a vicious voice: "Bold! Ignorance!" Trickster, you actually threw me meow!"

The dragon lazily stretched out its paws, and recovered its human form in a faint golden light. A pair of golden pupils stared at the big orange cat, and said slowly: "Tiantian, your grocery store is not safe enough, where are the wild cats meowing here?" Meow, do you want extra food tonight?"

Shen Qingzhuo didn't answer the words, she sent out her spiritual sense, and scanned the whole small building - the barrier was not damaged, and there was no sign of being forcibly opened.

Shen Qingzhuo's barrier has been set up for many years. Only those he is willing to let in can enter the grocery store intact. If someone breaks and enters forcibly, no matter how far away he is, he will be able to sense the abnormality.

At this time, a big orange cat unexpectedly appeared in the yard.

It's as if it popped up from within rather than coming in from without.

Shen Qingzhuo remembered that he had just felt the subtle fluctuations of spiritual energy in mid-air when he landed just now, and scanned the surroundings, and soon found something wrong—a few fist-sized stones were placed around, and the placement seemed random, but Shen Qing However, Zhuo saw the subtle and weak connection between them.

There is a thin thread that is hard to see with the naked eye, thin and misty, connecting those stones together, forming an unknown formation.

……

Half an hour later, the big orange cat, which was pinched and beaten by the dragon because of its extreme incompetence, squatted reluctantly in front of the small table, proudly holding its fat body hidden in the fluff. neck.

Shen Qingzhuo treated all "guests" equally, poured a cup of tea leisurely, and pushed it in front of the orange cat.

The big orange cat was probably spoiled by its excrement shoveler on weekdays. Even if it was beaten up by the dragon, it would not be very polite when speaking: "Bold and unreasonable! How dare you treat me like this! This is the following offense Disrespectful crime meow! When my master finds me, you will be finished meow!"

It became agitated, and the whiskers on both sides of its cheeks kept shaking, looking very annoyed, "How dare you meow to me like this!"

This cat demon is so gutsy, he dared to call himself Master Cat here without even saying a word?Long Yin pinched his fingers and sneered, and laughed, "Wake up, you have been dead for hundreds of years in the early morning."

The big orange cat was stunned for a moment, and a trace of confusion flashed in its round cat pupils: "What Daqing? What did you forget? Where did you come from, rebels and thieves?"

It got excited, and slapped its round paws on the small desk, just knocked over the teacup, and the hot tea splashed its paws, it meowed in pain, and asked aggressively: "Just say you look Sneaky and sneaky! Aww, it hurts so much, meow! Where did you come from as spies! If you dare to do evil in our Great Tang, my Master Tianshi will definitely not let you go, meow!"

Shen Qingzhuo's eyes moved slightly, and he keenly captured the key words: "Da Tang? Celestial Master?"

For thousands of years in China, there was only one Great Tang.

And in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Shen Qingzhuo only knew one celestial master.

Is it possible...

Hearing Shen Qingzhuo's retorted question, the big orange cat proudly puffed out its chest—it was too fat, and when it puffed out its chest, it would look fluffy and lacklustre. Meow? My celestial master is not easy to mess with! If you are sensible, send me back quickly! My cat spare you two lives meow!"

Shen Qingzhuo took a sip of tea, exhaled slowly, and the smile on his face faded a bit: "Master Mingche?"

With a flick of the dragon's eyebrows, the big orange cat bluffed: "Bold! How dare you call Master Tianshi by his name!"

……

In the prosperous Tang Dynasty thousands of years ago, not only human beings flourished, but thousands of demons and ghosts, countless non-human beings flourished.

Shen Qingzhuo lived in Datang for a long time, and Old Street...was born at that time.

At that time, the old street was not called an old street. It was vaguely called "that street" by most monsters and some humans who knew about it. It was opened up for the monsters to live in.

Yaoshi is the predecessor of today's Special Administration Bureau, and the human being who has great power, has no official position in the court, but can be respectfully called "Master" today is Tianshi Mingche.

Shen Qingzhuo dug out the situation at that time from the depths of her memory.At that time, he lived in a rather vague way, caring little about the outside world, and only vaguely remembering his clear appearance.

Ming Che gave birth to a pair of extremely unique eyes.He can't see the mundane things in the world, but he can see through the many concealments of thousands of demons and ghosts, and he is also talented in forming formations, so the two big demons invited him to form formations for the old street, so that the old street can hide Yu Chang'an.

Shen Qingzhuo would recognize him, apart from the brief contact with them when they set up the formation together, it was also because he had a broken formation in his hand.

I don't know who created that formation. It is said that it can travel back in time and travel to the future.Mingche has been trying to recover, but unfortunately, the progress is not good, and it seems that he has never succeeded.

Shen Qingzhuo once asked him for this formation - the price was everything he had.

However, Mingche refused to enter, and Ren Shen Qingzhuo came to the door every day, but refused to agree.The paper that recorded the remnants of the formation had been destroyed by him long ago, and Shen Qingzhuo couldn't forcefully break his head to turn over the formation, so in the end the matter was left alone.

……

It turns out that this formation...can really be successful...

Shen Qingzhuo's fingers trembled subconsciously, but his face was still gentle and calm, "You came here because you joined Mingche's formation?"

The big orange cat jumped up as if its tail had been stepped on, and its round cat eyes were full of disbelief: "You you you! How do you know meow! Bah! I don't know what it is!"

Mingche probably told it not to talk about this formation casually, but it forgot about it when it was excited, and then reacted after blurting it out, and immediately pretended to be stupid: "What nonsense are you talking about? What kind of formation is it? ! I have never heard of this cat king!"

There is no silver 300 taels here.

Shen Qingzhuo curled her lips soundlessly, she seemed to be in a good mood, with a gentle smile on her brows and eyes.He glanced at the surrounding stones, and said casually: "Since that's the case... the demon city is short of people to take care of, so I'll be a good person and send you to the demon market."

He said "Demon City", not the Special Administration.The big orange cat might not be able to figure out the current situation, and only thought that he was still in Datang.

Sure enough, upon hearing the name of the Demon City, the big orange cat instantly became tense, its fluff all over its body puffed up, and said vigilantly: "What do you mean meow? I don't want to go to the Demon City! Those two cramp skinned None of the demon masters are good!"

The purpose of creating the monster market is to allow humans and monsters to get along well. There are two big monsters in charge of the monster market. One is responsible for registering and managing monsters in Chang'an City, and the other is responsible for establishing rules and governing criminal laws.

Chang'an is the capital of the country, not to mention the prosperity, but also the most aura, surrounded by big monsters, and all kinds of little monsters sharpen their heads and want to squeeze into Chang'an.

The more monsters, the more things to do.The two demon masters in the city are so busy that they don't touch the ground, and they are hunting for coolies everywhere recently.

Unfortunately, the big orange cat was caught and helped out once, but he didn't get any benefits, and was sent to run errands. After a month of hard work, he lost ten catties.

It really made the cat cry.

Before Shen Qingzhuo had time to say anything, the mobile phone on the small case next to her suddenly rang.

It's the phone of the dragon.

The Internet addicted old dragon casually picked up his phone, swiped open the screen to glance at it, raised his eyebrows, and sat up slightly.

Shen Qingzhuo sat still, didn't lean over to look at it, and didn't ask him.After Long Yimu Sanxing finished reading and replying, he picked up the teacup and took a silent sip.

Long stood up in a good mood, put the phone in his pocket casually, stared at the big orange cat like a warning, and said, "I'll go out for a while."

Shen Qingzhuo gave a soft "um", but still didn't intend to ask, her long and curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she lowered her eyes, sending Long out of the door with only a slight peripheral vision.

The author has something to say: Overhead Datang, it is very empty, the kind of empty that can be set up for barbecue after lighting a fire.
