I sell demon meat in the city

Chapter 17 Meng Shulan is back
Just then, the sound of a car came from the gate again.

The courtyard gate was open, and as the group turned to look, they saw Meng Shulan getting out of a white Polo.

"Mother."

Meng Qi's eyes lit up, and she cheered as she pounced on him.

Meng Shulan easily lifted her daughter up with one hand, not even noticing any change in her strength. She simply lowered her head to kiss her daughter's little face and asked with a smile, "When I entered the village, I saw that the Yellow Emperor was covered in wounds. Did he provoke you again?"

Huangdi is a large Tibetan Mastiff, six years old this year. He is domineering and fierce, often bullying the other dogs in the village so much that they dare not show their faces. Sometimes, if he sees villagers holding meat or other food, he will bark and pounce on them to snatch it.

Because it was raised by the son of Yun Laosan, the village secretary of Yunmeng Village, the villagers dared not speak out against it.

The Meng family has a large population, and even though the brigade secretary's surname is Yun, he doesn't dare to offend them. So, it's as if he's made a pact with a dog; even an animal will discriminate based on who it targets, only robbing others and not the Meng family.

As the name suggests, Yunmeng Village is predominantly inhabited by two major surnames: Yun and Meng. Other surnames account for less than a third of the village's population.

Let's go back to that Tibetan Mastiff named Huangdi. It had been running rampant for several years. Once, when it bullied the dogs and even came close to Mengqi, it bit Pidan's Teddy bear.

Pidan cried out at the top of his lungs, and Mengqi picked up a thick wooden stick and started hitting him repeatedly, from one end of the village to the other, and then from the east to the west.

A man and his dog raced wildly through the village, kicking up dust and billowing smoke.

But the villagers found it extremely satisfying, and some even applauded Meng Qi, saying, "Little Qi, kill it!" It was so cathartic.

Yun Laosan's son was terrified and ran up to Meng Jiu, yelling, "Stop! Make that brat stop! If she dares to hurt my Yellow Emperor, I'll beat her to death!"

Meng Jiu glanced at him, then slapped him across the face, glaring at him with her large, bell-like eyes and asking, "Who are you trying to beat to death? The Yellow Emperor, huh? Are you some kind of prince?"

Yun Laosan's son didn't dare to say a word. He covered his face, got up from the ground, and slunk back home.

After that incident, the Yellow Emperor became very obedient. He didn't even dare to leave his house, let alone wander around the village.

Dogs have intelligence too. Seeing this situation, what else could they say? They all automatically and spontaneously recognized Meng Qi as their leader.

After that, anyone who was bullied by the Yellow Emperor would immediately turn around and run to Meng Qi's side to whine. Meng Qi would beat the Yellow Emperor up without even asking.

For this, he was given a domineering nickname by the villagers: Boss Dog!

Yun Laosan's family lived at the east end of the village. Meng Shulan happened to be coming from that side of the road. When she passed by his house, she saw the yellow Tibetan Mastiff lying with its head drooping at the door, covered in blood. She didn't know what had happened to it.

Actually, she didn't think it was Xiao Qi who hit her. Although her daughter was very strong, she was still quite restrained when it came to the cats and dogs in the village, and even when she did hit them, there was basically no blood.

But in their village, apart from her daughter Xiao Qi, no one dared to touch that dog, mainly because they couldn't; it was too fierce and dangerous for ordinary people.

So this is very strange.

Mengqi was also puzzled, as she had been busy these past two days and hadn't had time to deal with Dahuang at all.

Oh, by the way, she changed her name to Dahuang (Big Yellow).

"Shulan."

Before Meng Qi could speak about Da Huang, Meng Shu Lan suddenly heard a familiar, slightly apprehensive voice calling out.

She hadn't even entered the yard yet; she had just gotten out of the car at the gate when Xiao Qi ran out, so she didn't even realize there was an extra person in the house today.

Meng Shulan looked up and saw that familiar face, and froze. Her face then darkened, but just as she was about to say something, her gaze inadvertently fell on the empty sleeve of his right arm, and Meng Shulan froze again.

Having shared a bed for three years, she noticed something was wrong with him the moment she saw him, but she deliberately tried not to pay attention, since it would all be over soon and his condition was none of her business.

But he's missing an arm.
None of your business. None of your business. None of your business.
Meng Shulan silently repeated these four words in her heart, then looked away from the severed arm, patted Xiao Qi's head, and said gently, "Go home first. I have something to say to you, but it's not appropriate for a child like you to listen."

Meng Qi wasn't interested in listening; she was only interested in the little demon's core. Old Lin had told her that it was a fully grown core, and it was of a higher quality than the snake gall bladder of the snake demon from a few days ago.

She still doesn't quite understand the difference between low-level and high-level, and even how a creature like a demon is formed is only vaguely explained by her unreliable master.

In their world, demons are born naturally, able to transform into human form from birth, and possess unique skills.

Some of them are very powerful, much more powerful than the cultivators.

However, a large portion of them were low-level demons who still retained their animal instincts, such as the giant green snake, the rat demon she had previously used for practice, and a cat demon with extremely fast movements.

But that's all she said. She didn't know if she couldn't remember anything else or was too lazy to think about it. In the end, she didn't even mention the demon core to her.

This led Mengqi to believe that killing demons simply required cutting off their heads.

After all, her mother had told her before that when her master saved them, he chopped off the pig demon's head with one move.

Her master had incomplete memories; she had forgotten many things about her time in that world, and she didn't even remember how she got there.

The only thing she clearly remembered was that she had an apprentice named Xiao Qi, but he died in a battle.

By the way, where is Master?

Before leaving, Mengqi glanced into the car. There was no one inside; her master hadn't come back with her mother.

Has it fallen asleep again?
Master seemed to have suffered a serious injury, so he would go into a deep sleep every now and then. He would lock himself in his room, not eating or drinking for a period of time, like a bear hibernating. Sometimes it would be a month, sometimes two months, or even longer.

The timing is determined by when she wakes up.

She calls this "seclusion".

But Mengqi thinks that "sleeping" is a more appropriate term.

They were just sleeping, why would they need to shut themselves in?

About ten kilometers from Sanqing Mountain, there is a small town called Sanshui Town. Ten years ago, Qingshui Village was massacred, and the people of Sanshui Town lived in constant fear. Overnight, more than half of them moved away, leaving many empty houses in the town.

In the following years, things went smoothly, and some people moved back. However, more people left in the end, making Sanshui Town seem very empty and desolate.

After traveling back and forth to Sanqing Mountain several times with Yu Qingge, Meng Shulan took the opportunity to buy a house with a yard in Sanshui Town at a low price.

It was a two-story building that had been built a few years ago, with a square yard, a large jujube tree, a pretty little garden made of blue bricks, and a clean and spacious kitchen.

In short, Meng Shulan fell in love with the house at first sight. In addition, the owner was in a hurry to leave and didn't bother with any formalities. He offered a fixed price of 50,000 yuan!

After that, whenever Yu Qingge needed to sleep, she would return to this house.

See you tomorrow!
