17. Stealing books is not stealing
Xia Yi had another dream.
It was a sunny afternoon, and two girls of about sixteen years old and a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old were in the woods together.
The boy was reading a book, and the two girls were sitting in the shade of the tree chatting.
The three of them all look beautiful, and this scene looks like a painting.
After sitting for a while, the two girls stood up and looked for butterflies and insects in the grass.
As they moved, Xia Yi's field of vision moved, and after a while, he saw a well.
The dream ended abruptly here, and Xia Yi woke up.
A deer was smelling his body curiously.
"Wow!" Xia Yi sat up suddenly.
The deer was so frightened that it jumped back and hurriedly fled into the woods.
The deer's unhappiness made Xia Yi happy.
He stood up, stretched, and turned to look for the mud monster.
It's daylight now, there are no trees blocking the well, and there is bright sunlight everywhere.
Wait, well?
Xia Yi looked at the well not far away and frowned.
This well is somewhat similar to the one in his dream.
Xia Yi understood that he was not dreaming, but that his psychic talent was activated by himself.
Most likely one of those three people is a sludge monster.
It turns out that the sludge monster is a strange creature transformed from a human being. No wonder it can understand human speech.
Xia Yi found the mud monster. It was sinking in the shade of a tree, with only one head exposed.
It looked quite scary, with only one head on the ground.
Xia Yi walked to the mud monster, picked up a branch and poked his head: "What does those two girls have to do with you?"
Xia Yi mistakenly thought that the boy was a mud monster.
The mud monster looked up at Xia Yi.
"You were quite handsome when you were alive, why have you become so ugly now?" Xia Yi poked at the mud monster again.
The silt monster wraps the branches in silt and bends them hard.
Click——
The branch broke into two pieces.
"Are you angry?" Xia Yi asked happily.
He was avenging the human-headed wolf last night.
The sludge monster turned its head to the other side and ignored him.
Xia Yi stood up and looked at the body of the human-headed wolf.
The moonlight was dim last night and he didn't observe carefully. Now he can finally take a good look.
The human-headed wolf's body and head are as big as ordinary wolves and ordinary people, but the human head grows on the wolf's neck.
The teeth on the head were stained with blood. It seemed that the child who disappeared last night was in serious danger.
After completing the observation and satisfying his curiosity, Xia Yi lost interest in the human-headed wolf.
He grabbed the two hind legs of the human-headed wolf, dragged it to the edge of the well, and threw it down.
His movements are very skillful. When he was alive, he often played assassination games. Hiding corpses in trash cans, hiding corpses by rivers, and hiding corpses in wells were all basic operations.
After hearing the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground in the well, Xia Yi nodded with satisfaction.
He returned to the sludge monster's head.
The sludge monster sank its head and emerged from the shade of another tree.
Xia Yi chased after him: "Don't run!"
Xia Yi chased six shades of trees, and the mud monster finally stopped running away.
Xia Yi squatted down and asked the silt monster curiously: "Are you afraid of the sun?"
Because the sludge monster always appears from the shadows and likes to stay in the shadows, he has this doubt.
Not only him, but also the people in Hanzhuang thought so when they were alive.
However, Han Zhuang regarded this as a theorem, but Xia Yi knew that this might just be because he didn't like the sun.
Xia Yi doesn't like the summer sun either.
The sludge monster didn't answer, so Xia Yi started experimenting on his own.
He touched his hand to the sludge monster's head.
The sludge monster burrowed into the ground again and ran into the shade of a nearby tree.
"If you run away again, I won't live here with you!" Xia Yi threatened.
He walked to the side of the sludge monster. The sludge monster's head shrank back, but it did not run away.
This sludge monster was actually really threatened.
Am I so powerful? Xia Yi scratched his head.
This is not important, Xia Yi put his hand on the mud monster's head, rubbed his head, and touched downwards.
Xia Yi successfully reached into the shadow world.
He lay down and stretched his arms longer.
Then he fumbled around.
The sludge monster grabbed his hand.
What Xia Yi wants is the palm of the mud monster.
He pulled the clay hand out of the ground, raised the arm, and slowly tested it toward the sun.
He carefully observed the sludge monster's expression. The sludge monster's expression was calm, and the red light in its eyes did not change at all.
Finally, the sludge monster's arm reached the edge of the shade.
Xia Yi slightly handed his arm forward, and the front end of his arm touched the sunlight.
He looked at the sludge monster.
The sludge monster is still the same.
He continued to push the sludge monster's arm forward. Even if the entire arm was exposed to the sun, the sludge monster did not change at all.
The sludge monster looked at his arms in the sun, climbed up from the shadows, walked into the sun, and looked back at Xia Yi.
Xia Yi gave the lines to the sludge monster: Stand still, what do you do next?
Xia Yi dragged the mud monster back into the shade of the tree and stuffed it into the shadow again.
He sighed, and sure enough, the sludge monster just didn't like the sun, and the sun actually didn't do any harm to it.
It's a pity that Hanzhuang and the others died early, otherwise they would have enjoyed the surprise.
With her curiosity satisfied, Xia Yi began to think about her stomach.
"I'm hungry," he said to the sludge monster.
The mud monster was about to lower its head when Xia Yi stopped him: "Wait a minute, take me with you. Let's go to the Hong Family Mansion to find food."
If you let the sludge monster go on its own, it will probably pick apples for Xia Yi, who will be tired of eating them.
He had to find food by himself and see if there was anything else he could use.
Xia Yi didn't feel any guilt for picking up the Hong family's wool, but the other party was even capable of sacrificing him, so he deserved to be picked up.
The mud monster stretched out his hand, grabbed Xia Yi, and sank into the shadow.
The Hong Family Mansion is some distance away from the woods. Even if the sludge monster speeds up, it will take more than ten seconds to reach it.
Xia Yi did not miss this opportunity and put his hand deep into the mud monster's body to touch it.
The mud monster looked down at Xia Yi, and Xia Yi felt that he seemed a little aggrieved.
The grievance belongs to the mud monster and has nothing to do with Xia Yi.
Xia Yi was only curious about what he touched last time.
He thought he could succeed this time, but he underestimated the sludge monster's intelligence.
After Xia Yi inserted the mud monster, he felt that the mud on the mud monster started to flow.
He went deep inside, as if he were going up a waterfall. His palms could not get in even an inch, and were even squeezed out by the impact of the mud.
Xia Yi couldn't accept this fact and glared at the sludge monster.
I don't know if it was his imagination, but the sludge monster's eyes seemed to be narrower, as if he was smiling.
hateful!
Xia Yi turned around and turned his back to the mud monster.
The sludge monster grabbed his shoulders and climbed up, emerging from a shadow.
Chapter completed!
