"You said mint leaves... can you light it?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked the Liu An opposite.

She suddenly remembered such a thing at noon today, but she has never seen such things as mint leaves in the north all year round.

Now it's just her and Liu An in the room. She just remembered this in her mind and asked him.

Liu An held a stack of clothes in his hand, looked at Yuan Yuanyuan and said, "Okay, the mint should be ready to order after it's dried."

"Can I smoke?" Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly got excited, sat up and asked Liu An.

"Pumping?" Liu An's expression suddenly became subtle.

"That thing is lit...it's going to emit black smoke." He finally said in a complicated tone.

"Oh..." Yuan Yuanyuan sat down a little disappointed, thinking that she couldn't smoke anymore.

Mint is a thing in Yuanyuan's life, usually accompanied by hard candy, chewing gum and wet tissue... I don't know why this thing gave her a kind of Very hung look.

So just now she subconsciously wondered if the mint thing could light up and emit a mint smell…

Liu An looked at the boss over there who sat down again and wondered what he thought of mint... Isn't that thing just a plant?

He wanted to hit Hache as he walked, but he hurriedly held it back.

Part-time work, although this is the first time in his life to work, but his performance is better than some who have worked for a few years.

Having two jobs at the same time, although the boss is nice to talk about, this also opens a back door. If you show a little tired feeling, it is very likely to be abandoned.

When he was in Taoist temple, if he accidentally hit Hache, then the leading senior would immediately stop his actions and let him go out immediately.

Although Liu An is no longer a Taoist priest of that Taoist temple, there are some habits that are still engraved in his bones.

When he just held back that Hache, he suddenly remembered something from the past, lowered his head and looked at his military coat and large cotton shoes.

…After a while, he shook his head and continued to pack his clothes.

Although there is less money here, there is one benefit—

This is a rare "Haunted House" in the vicinity, not many monsters come over, for him, he really can't find one more suitable for him than here 's residence.

He organized the clothes one by one. Although the boss didn't take care of these clothes very much, he still insisted on cleaning them up from time to time. It can be seen from the clothes that this boss is indeed not as harmless as it seems on the surface, because many of the materials on these clothes are very amazing.

Like a heavy black gown, at first he didn't seem to see anything wrong, until one day he accidentally touched the button on it, He shrank from the freezing temperature above.

It took him a long time to tell the difference, only to realize that the button that looked bright and round was actually the bone of some monster...

The buttons were shiny white, with a hint of yellow, and they felt cold and biting to the touch. Frozen.

Although this thing looks very lethal, Liu An can imagine how important this thing is to some ice-related monsters.

However, such a cool thing is now placed in a small clothing store that no one comes to patronize.

After that, Liu An observed other clothes from time to time, and some clothes that looked very ordinary had some very scary things on them. The more he watched, the more Liu An could not see the strength of the boss, so he no longer simply thought that the boss was just a clothes seller like the first time they met.

Scavenger is actually a very magical job, in this position, you can see a lot of things that you can't see during the day.

However, the people who do this work are also some very poor monsters, and there are all kinds of monsters. Liu An arrived here on the first day. The other monsters are all fierce and vicious, and one buddy is even more rude, with four or five scars directly across his face.

Although she was wearing a military coat, Liu An, who had a fair face, looked like a little white face standing inside.

They came here for various reasons, they are all monsters living in the back of this city.

When Liu An came out of the alley with a body bag on her back on the first day, she happened to see a little monster child being led by her father towards him Came here. As soon as he glanced there, the child next to him suddenly cried, out of breath.

Her father also saw Liu An, he squatted down, picked up his child, and instantly covered his child's eyes.

Liu An stood at the intersection, and suddenly did not dare to go out.

When the father and daughter were far away, he slowly pulled out the bag and carried it onto his military coat, step by step He walked forward, his waist slightly bent.

He walked through a street, walked through another street, and kept walking along the path. In fact, when he walked on the street, he had the same scavenger on his body. Distributed things that can cover up his body shape, humans can't see him and what he carries, only monsters can see him.

However, he continued to walk along the path, avoiding humans and monsters as much as possible, and finally carried the body bag back to the place.

He was the last to come back that day, and he came back late, so when he turned the body bag over, the recorded monster looked up At a glance, his eyes were as cold as if he could be stripped alive.

Liu An looked at the monster's eyes, and slowly clenched his hand in his pocket, because he was a little afraid that the monster would really do this.

However, it seems that he is lucky today, the monster just looked at him coldly for a long time, and then slowly put a big cross on his name .

Liu An looked at the fork and took a deep breath.

So the next day...he learned to walk down the road with a body bag on his back and ignore the gazes around him.

The monsters around him were like hiding from the plague. He lowered his head and quickly passed through these monsters.

The main road is the best place to go, and the easiest place to go. There are no twists and turns, and the road is smooth.

Liu An has been working for three days, and feels that now he is not afraid of anyone's eyes, and the whole person can be detached to the point of soaring...

, When I stood on the cliff and watched the sunset with my head held high, I always felt a strange feeling in my heart.

Yuan Yuanyuan saw something related to cigarettes these few days and wanted to go up and take a look, she was like a demon, the way Lizi looked at her, They all laughed and asked what happened to her recently.

Yuan Yuanyuan didn't say anything, she tried many things, such as kerosene lamps that can emit smoke, such as incense burners, cigarettes, and even humidifiers utensils...but none of them satisfied her.

Cigarettes are actually the most ideal object, but unfortunately Yuan Yuanyuan insists on not smoking. So she wanted to try if she could replace the shredded tobacco with another thing to simulate the effect of cigarettes, which is why she asked Liu An if she could order Mint at noon today.

The effect of this thing is really the best, even if it is not from the perspective of whether it is easy to carry, just from the camouflage... If you fight with a humidifier or an incense burner, everyone will focus on those two things.

Smoke, this thing is small in size, and very easy to disguise, no one will pay attention to it, so there is no such thing as The possibility of being found to be deliberately making cigarettes.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the incense burner in the tavern. She had been adding incense to the stove for a while before. Yuanyuan never asked about their specific types.

In fact, the incense used in taverns are all top-level incense, and each name is different. Unfortunately, Yuan Yuanyuan can't understand these profound things. , so despite working for so long, there is still no way to distinguish their names.

Yuan Yuanyuan has been obsessed with incense recently... No, it's cigarettes that are more fascinated, she squatted in front of the incense burner and asked Sister Lizi behind her, "Sister, we burned this one recently. What is the fragrance called?"

Sister Lizi turned her head and glanced, and said to Yuan Yuanyuan: "This is the incense of blue cigarettes, I only got it in winter, and it will affect my body after smoking it. benefit."

"…is it good?" Yuan Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows.

"Yeah, didn't you notice that you've been staying in the store recently, the demon power has increased a lot?" Sister Lizi said, "It's because of this fragrance, this Incense is hard to find, and some places don’t allow it to be used, but our store is so famous that we dare to use it.”

"Oh, so..." Yuan Yuanyuan continued to look at the stove with her head down.

"No, you've been making incense for so long...haven't you figured out the type of incense?" Sister Lizi came over with a shocked expression.

"No, I will order whichever you want me to order. Every time I grab a handful, I will leave." Yuan Yuanyuan said.

"...then you are also a god, many monsters can't get the incense job, when you first came, I was watching Sister Xue For the sake of it, I'll let you have some incense."

"Isn't it just a little fragrant...I'd rather hide in the back kitchen and brush my cups." Yuan Yuanyuan said.

"Fool, come here." Sister Lizi looked at Yuan Yuanyuan with disgust, and hooked her index finger at her.

Yuan Yuanyuan leaned over, and Sister Lizi grabbed her ear and whispered to her ear, "Blue smoke, in fact, It's the demon bead powder."

The wind tickled her ears, but Yuan Yuanyuan didn't care. She widened her eyes, turned to look at Sister Lizi, and said in her mouth: "Fuck, there is no..."

"Don't talk, squint." Sister Lizi pinched Yuan Yuanyuan.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the smoke in the stove over there, to be honest, she really didn't expect this thing to have such a big background, although she didn't It can be used, but a bean-sized monster can make a little monster live for a month under the protection of a big monster.

Their tavern has to light up almost a box of incense a day... God.

A box of incense, a box of incense, a box of incense…

Yuan Yuanyuan was hit hard by the local tyrants, and she was in a mess all day. When she returned home, she even lost interest in dinner...

Of course, she can also eat instant noodles at home.

Yuan Yuanyuan lay on the bed and turned over, thinking that she should not go back there and have a look, in fact, Liu An kept her meals every day, Put it outside, the weather won't be bad. She has a stove and a pot there to warm it up a bit.

Liu An is an all-around little assistant. He goes to the vegetable market by himself during the day and buys the freshest vegetables. The house must have been tidy up before, Yuan Yuanyuan felt that she was too embarrassed to give people that little salary.

She silently recited the magic formula in her heart, and suddenly disappeared into the air, leaving only a faint red smoke...

And in another place, there was a middle-aged and an elderly person looking at each other.

"I'm really sorry to call you here today." The older man said softly.

He looks very peaceful, with a sense of peace that only old people have.

The opposite of him was a middle-aged man who looked very dignified.

"If you are for the latest wanted order, I think you don't need to pay too much attention. We have made very good preparations. Taoist priests will be targeted by us." The middle-aged man said with a smile, his laughter sounded very hearty.

"But these things also need to trouble you to take action, I still feel very embarrassed, but this is really not a suitable place for our Li family to take action." The old man said .

"It's fine, I also have some good impressions of Yuan." The middle-aged man said with a smile, his expression was inexplicably fascinated, "It's amazing. A big monster, it's really not easy to see this big monster now, maybe it's a good thing for us in the monster world."

The two chatted happily, cupping each other. After about an hour, the middle-aged man got up and left the place.

On the table was the leftovers, and the old man, who had always been very soft-spoken, looked at the leftovers on the table, raised his glass gently, and gave Poured myself a cup.

This time, he drank very slowly, as if he was savoring the taste of wine.

A glass of wine, ups and downs, only one person knows.

He put down his glass, looked at the sunset outside, and sighed softly. In the sunset, his waist seemed more hunched, and his beard was more gray.

He suddenly muttered to himself in a quiet room.

"Yuan, Yuan, why didn't you die so clean?"
