we are just monsters

Chapter 62
In the dead of night on the street, Zhou Xiaotian walked under the street lamp, holding a brazier, his ponytail swaying slightly, and headed home.It is a home, but it is actually a residence.

She missed Master again.

The master said that she was picked up from the trash can—like all children, they have almost heard this sentence.

But Zhou Xiaotian knew that he was real. The master really picked up a child in the trash can, and then took her to live with her for more than 20 years, raising her and never leaving her.

Although I don't know why Master, a big girl, picked up her oil bottle, but it's good for two people to live together. When Master is alive, wherever he goes is home.

It's just that she hasn't married in her whole life and has become an old woman. It's so pitiful.

ah~
Maybe it's because of myself?
It's not like Zhou Xiaotian didn't have this kind of speculation, and she thought that she was dragging down the master, but later she found out that it wasn't, even without her dragging oil bottle, the master might be the same, sitting alone on the sofa, staring out the window in a daze.

Master has been looking for it all his life.

"Leave me a last word, tell me, I'll help you find it, and if I find it, I can burn it to you..."

Zhou Xiaotian sighed, as if aware of something, he suddenly turned around.

The road behind her was empty, she clutched the brazier suspiciously.

If someone who is blind follows her, a brazier will knock him out of the concussion.

The brazier is round and made of pure copper. It is very powerful. Master got it from somewhere. It is considered a family heirloom. If she succeeds in the future, she will pass it on.

There were only dim street lights on the street, and occasional passing cars. Zhou Xiaotian dragged the brazier back home, and put the pure copper brazier behind the door. The movement was a little loud, and there was a muffled sound. She stuck out her tongue, hoping Didn't bother the downstairs neighbors.

Sitting down on the sofa, Zhou Xiaotian suddenly felt very tired, and the deep tiredness came from all directions, wrapping her whole body.

When Master is around, it seems that I don’t need to think about anything. With Master, I only need to study every day, be lazy, and occasionally cook a meal, and that’s fine.Now I am alone, like a boat without a lighthouse, lost its direction.

She wanted to stay here, but didn't know what the point was; she also thought about leaving, but didn't know where to go.

In the vast crowd, the only family member left, she became a rootless duckweed, staying alone in the world.

I can only repeat my previous life, day after day, pretending to be the same as before.

Zhou Xiaotian closed his eyes tiredly, reclined on the sofa and fell asleep.

He didn't turn off the lights, didn't take a shower, and didn't even let his hair loose, and slept with his clothes on.

midnight.

Xia Xiaoman appeared in the room, looked at Zhou Xiaotian's messy sleeping position, and reached out to touch her forehead.

"Sleep and don't go back to bed." She tried to pick up the thin blanket, but failed.

Zhou Xiaotian woke up suddenly and looked around blankly. She seemed to hear her master complaining that she was lying on the sofa and sleeping again.

The living room is still quiet, the soft lights are scattered, and all corners of the living room can be seen at a glance.

Zhou Xiaotian rubbed her neck and sat up with difficulty, but she noticed the thin blanket on her body. She was stunned, her eyes froze, thinking about whether she had covered herself before going to bed.

"Master?" she asked tentatively.

"Master, are you still there?"

No one answered in the empty room.

"Master..."

Zhou Xiaotian said in a low voice, his eyes wet.

Master is dead.

There was no such person anymore, and when she was gone, she was gone, gone from the rest of her life.

The next 20 years, 30 years, 40 years, until she also passed away, saying goodbye to this world.

There are no ghosts in the world.

the next day.

When Gu Cheng got up, he saw Lilith lying on the wall, watching Chen Hua and Zhao Hong kiss next door, and then went to work.

"Have they always been this disgusting?"

Lilith stretched out her claws and pointed at Chen Hua who was going out on a battery car.

"Very little, maybe Zhao Hong was happy yesterday." Gu Cheng said.

"Why is she happy?"

"Because Chen Hua was having trouble with a female cat who ate her tofu? Life became dull after a long time, and when a third party destroys the relationship, the passion would be rekindled, and she would think, hey, why is Chen so cute, And then...mating."

Gu Cheng shrugged, "There is actually not much difference between a blood race and a human being, you know."

"I'm a witch, not a she-cat." Lilith said expressionlessly.

"Well, witches are not much different from humans."

"The difference is huge, men are all stinky shit."

"Heishan is ready to go out and shovel sand."

After Gu Cheng said something, Lilith immediately ran over and jumped onto Heishan's shoulder.

"Are we still shoveling sand today? Is there anything better to do?" Heishan wanted to buy a mobile phone, raise a few little people like Chen Hua, and beat them to death.

"No, you are stupid. A pair of gloves costs two yuan, and you earn six hundred a day. This is... one of... a very high rate of return. If you make a lot of money, there is nothing better than this. Shovel it well. Sand." The witch vowed.

"Picking up a pair of gloves like yesterday, isn't it a bargain?"

"Yes! Smart!"

Two social loafers head off to start their fortune-making scheme.

Zhao Hong went to work, Chen Hua went to work, and Heishan was fooled by Lilith to wait for the van on the street. Gu Cheng looked up and saw Xia Xiaoman sitting on the roof with his legs shaking.

"It seems that you are the only one who is free." Xia Xiaoman also noticed, "Why don't we follow Lao Chen's example and do something disgusting?"

"Isn't it stupid to know that it's disgusting and still do it?"

"I haven't tried it, and neither have you, are you curious?"

Xia Xiaoman was in high spirits, Gu Cheng waved at her, and when she came over, he suddenly stretched out his foot and stepped on her white skirt.

"..."

Xia Xiaoman stared at him like a coconut.

"Are you a pervert?"

"Probably." Gu Cheng nodded, "I know what people like the most, and then I destroy it."

"is it?"

"No?" Gu Cheng looked into her eyes, suddenly startled.

"You commit suicide." Xia Xiaoman said.

"..."

When Gu Cheng came to Yigexuan on the street in the old city, Zhou Xiaotian was fiddling with the coins on the table. They were three Qianlong Tongbaos. I don’t know if they are real or not, but they can be used anyway—the same goes for a one-dollar coin. use.

Looking for Qianlong Tongbao, the main reason is that its casting ratio is copper, four, lead and six, and its size and thickness are relatively uniform, and it feels better when shaken. Some people think that the outer circle is square and the inner square. Moreover, Qianlong reigned for exactly 60 years, and the time of one Jiazi was not too long, and there was a certain kind of special feeling, all kinds of things, summed up in one sentence: compelling.

To open a store, there is still a necessary sense of ritual.

After the night passed, Zhou Xiaotian was full of energy, without the slightest tiredness when he was alone.

She was sitting there, dressed in plain casual clothes, with her hair tied up in a ball. Although she looked young, she had her own temperament. Set off by books, it can easily hold the storefront.

With a few copper coins coiled in his hand, Zhou Xiaotian was a little surprised when he saw Gu Cheng.

From the end of June, Gu Cheng was busy with final matters, and then went to Ningzhou with Lilith during the summer vacation, went into the mountains and beat Heishan to make sure that Niu Xi was dead, and then came back. He hadn't been here for almost a month. side.

"Why are you so good?" Zhou Xiaotian was not polite at all.

She still remembered the omens she gave Gu Cheng last time. This person should have something to do. Could it be done in a month?

its not right.

Zhou Xiaotian wondered.

The hexagrams may be wrong, but the omens are not. There must be something wrong.

"Is it possible that you miscalculated?" Gu Cheng smiled.

"impossible!"

"So confident?"

"Zhaobu deceives others, be careful." Zhou Xiaotian said lightly.

Seeing her appearance, Gu Cheng suddenly thought of Xia Xiaoman.

Why do you want something to happen to you so much?
