we are just monsters

Chapter 15 Lilith

Gu Cheng stood on the street, holding Zhou Xiaotian's business card in one hand, and searching her WeChat account with his mobile phone in the other.

The WeChat name is Zhou Xiaotian, using his real name, and his avatar is a fish in water.

Fortunately, it's not wearing a suit and holding hands.

"You won't be attracted to sex, will you?" Xia Xiaoman walked around beside her.

"Give me a business card and you can search their WeChat account!"

"The account they use for work won't chat with you."

"What are you doing with her?"

"..."

Gu Cheng sent a friend request, raised his head and asked, "You seem to be in a hurry."

"I'm jealous!" Xia Xiaoman said.

Gu Cheng looked at her quietly, and Xia Xiaoman looked back at her without fear.

It just occurred to him suddenly that Zhou Xiaotian's master might have been taught by him some time ago.

If it is true that the apprentice who taught casually decades ago is in Baicheng, and one day they meet by chance, there is also a preparation.

Friend requests are approved quickly.

Gu Cheng turned in another direction, sending messages while walking.

Gu Cheng: "Who is your master?"

Zhou Xiaotian: "Huh?"

Gu Cheng: "I'm sorry, I just asked."

Zhou Xiaotian: "Oh, my master is gone."

Gu Cheng: "I'm so sorry."

Xia Xiaoman was silent by the side, and Gu Cheng chatted a few more words, put away his phone, and threw his business card into the roadside trash can by the way.

"It's very similar to you. If you lived to this day, you would probably be similar to her, talking about metaphysics." Gu Cheng said to Xia Xiaoman.

"Hmph, I've almost forgotten what you taught me."

"Back then you studied very seriously."

In the 60s, it was far less prosperous and stable than it is now. Being a sorceress to help people see their fate, and burning incense sticks is also considered a craft. This occupation is not good in big cities, but it is still very respected in small places. a legacy.

And Xia Xiaoman was very interested, so he taught him too. Besides reading and literacy, when the other children helped the family with farm work, she would count strokes one by one in the small backyard and recite obscure formulas. Until you know it by heart.

"I remember giving you a life sentence, it didn't die young." Gu Cheng recalled the past and looked at Xia Xiaoman.Her fate is a bit lonely. She lost her father and mother in her early years, and she was displaced and homeless until her middle age. It was a group of monsters who kept her safe for more than ten years when she was a child.

"Who can tell the truth about the disaster without reason."

"It's a lot less suffering. I teach you this skill, and I want you to avoid the misfortune of being displaced. You can stay there with peace of mind, and you can overcome minor disasters and droughts."

"You can't even see life."

Xia Xiaoman smiled.

"After all, he is not a real god, and Dayan still has one who escapes. There is no 100% guarantee, not to mention that people are so complicated." Gu Cheng sighed.

When it was time to eat at noon, there were more people on the street, and he stopped talking.

Xia Xiaoman looked up at the Ferris wheel in the distance, poked Gu Cheng with his finger, and raised his finger again.

Gu Cheng didn't respond.

"You know why I didn't reincarnate, give me a few wishes to experience, maybe I will go..."

Xia Xiaoman wanted to say more, when he suddenly saw the black cat that was guarding the door and staring at her a few days ago, and turned his head to ask Gu Cheng to help him.

It turned out that Gu Cheng was also staring at the cat, and then smiled.

The black cat arched its body in a posture of retreating, but stayed there blankly until Gu Cheng lifted it up.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Gu Cheng said.

Xia Xiaoman looked at him with a strange expression, then looked at the cat, is this his old friend?A cat demon?
Piao Piao leisurely followed Gu Cheng, left that street to the main road, Gu Cheng hugged the cat and stroked it twice, "Old friend, don't be so nervous."

"I think you may have misunderstood the meaning of the word old friend."

A woman's voice came from Gu Cheng's arms, shocking Xia Xiaoman to take a step aside, staring at the cat.

"Cats can't talk." Gu Cheng patted the cat's head, "And I'm a Chinese teacher."

To say that a Chinese teacher has misunderstood the term "old friend" is the greatest insult to the teacher.

The black cat stared at him angrily, its ears quivered twice, and finally lowered its head.

"It-it-it-it...what a monster!" Xia Xiaoman's world view was subverted again.

It's even more subversive than the blood race, the blood race is still a human being, at best a mutant, Gu Cheng is also a human being, and now it's a cat who is talking!

The cat can talk!
Xia Xiaoman looked at it in shock, no wonder she instinctively sensed the danger that day, there are so many strange things in this world, and they are still mixed in the crowd...

"You are the one who lured him to find me?!" The black cat was furious. It had already seen that this little girl was not a good person, and had been sneaking and staring at her for a long time that day.

"It's been said that cats can't talk!" Gu Cheng patted the cat's head again, and looked at Xia Xiaoman, "Do you know each other?"

"I don't know it, I just met it when I wandered around a few days ago. I thought it was a cat..."

Xia Xiaoman was in a daze, and the world after death suddenly became different. The things she couldn't touch when she was alive became more and more subverted after she discovered Gu Cheng Changsheng and Chen Hua's blood clan.

The bizarre side of the world unfolded in front of her eyes, yet it felt as if it was no different.

Chen Hua and his wife would still be noisy, and Zhao Hong would poke him, just like a normal middle-aged couple, but the time and scene were changed.

She tried to look at the cat, to see what was different about it.

"You should tell me, so you don't have to go around all morning today, and it's good to meet her."

"I didn't know she was a demon either."

"It's not too late now."

Gu Cheng picked up the black cat's head and looked at it. The black cat's jewel-like eyes looked at him, but the eyes were a little angry.

"I haven't seen you in over 100 years, why are you so angry, relax."

"You just slapped me twice!"

"Cats can't talk!"

"..."

Xia Xiaoman saw that its claws were tightened, like a person making a fist, but he didn't dare to show his nails.

This is also an old monster.

"I also wondered if you would die somewhere quietly. After all, there are only three or two old friends left."

"As long as we don't touch you, we will live a good life." The black cat cursed secretly.

"Look, what I said is not wrong, you should have a good understanding of what the world looks like now." Gu Cheng lifted it up, and lifted it towards the tall buildings in the distance, letting it see the magnificent modern high-rises.

The black cat rolled his eyes.

"She's rolling her eyes." Xia Xiaoman said in surprise.

"!!!"

"Okay, you can talk when you go in, and you won't be afraid of being seen when you go home."

Xia Xiaoman was still in shock, followed Gu Cheng, turned left and right, and went back to his place of residence.

"This is Lilith." Gu Cheng introduced to Xia Xiaoman.

"Foreign demon?"

"To be precise, it's not a demon...you should call her a witch." After opening the door and entering the courtyard, Gu Cheng put down the black cat.

"Really? Miss Witch."

"I just want to live my life right now."

Lilith jumped on the battery car, trying not to let herself look up at this guy.
