The immortal black snake just wants to live simply

But usually, she would just keep her curiosity firmly in her heart. After all, she and the other party can only be regarded as relatively close friends. Although the other party's painting skills are not as good as hers, Xi can still benefit a lot from his unique appreciation taste. shallow.

Usually the communication between Zhu Jiuyin and Xi is usually limited to painting by tacit agreement.

But drunk people don’t think so much.

'Is this what the giant beast looks like when it's drunk?It doesn't feel any different from ordinary people. '

Zhu Jiuyin looked at Zi Zi's face, showing a humanized expression of confusion.

After all, it also knew that its owner was in a state of confusion.And Zhu Jiuyin was one of the few friends who got along well with his master, so it didn't seem right to force him to do so.

"Xi, don't make this little guy feel embarrassed... It's not a big deal. Just watch it if you want and don't touch it."

Zhu Jiuyin touched a handful of free and supple hair.

His body began to crack, and shadows began to overlap on the body.

'Hmm~ It seems that the relationship between me and the other party should have deepened a little bit... Does being honest with each other count? '

Black Snake's simple social skills cannot be said to be very strong.

After all, he is accustomed to sensing the other person's thoughts, emotions, and memories from time to time to adjust his way of contact with the other person.

When dealing with friends, you can't just read their minds.

At least in a form that is difficult for the other party to detect... Unfortunately, this is too difficult.

Just like playing a game with a cheat device turned on for a long time, once it is turned off, Cosiche's social skills will decline like a cliff.

What's more, the thoughts and concepts of giant beasts and immortals are very different from those of short-lived species.

This prevents Cosiche from applying his experience with short-lived species to them.

……

This was the first time Xi saw the true form of the black snake.

It felt to Xi like a bunch of paint mixed together, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Do you look like this?"

"correct."

Black Snake put down the wine glass and while sipping the tea, he stroked Zi Zi's slightly swollen hair.

"Relax, little one."

Black Snake comforted the restless Zi Zi.

After all, one's own body is highly polluting. Except for the existence of the same personality and a few determined individuals who can resist, other conscious life forms will be more or less corroded by oneself.

This results in the black snake rarely showing its true form.

Of course, He could choose not to erode the other party, but that feeling would be like an untrained person walking a tightrope, very torturous.

Black Snake hates that feeling.

……

'So you look like this. '

Xi stared blankly.

An indescribable humanoid figure made up of overlapping shadows. One hand was touching it and the other hand was holding the tea to its mouth.

'...It's quite beautiful. '

Xi wanted to paint the scene in front of her.

But soon, she started to feel dizzy and nauseous from drinking too much.

"Yuck~"

'...'

The shadow immediately dispersed, revealing Zhu Jiuyin's appearance.

He looked at Xi who was kneeling on the ground and vomiting with some dissatisfaction.

'Am I that ugly? '

Black Snake was very unhappy.

So, he took advantage of Xi's vomiting and fell asleep...

Draw several snakes on her face.

By the way, teach Zizi how to pick up a paintbrush.

Leave your own comments next to Xi's works.

Then the next day, Zhu Jiuyin was woken up and kicked out by Xi who was ashamed and angry.

'(Usas swears) This guy is really high maintenance. '

……

'...'

'Strange, I haven't had such a peaceful sleep for hundreds of years. '

'Could drinking alcohol help you sleep? '

Then Xi asked for a few bottles of wine from one of her sisters.

Unfortunately, even though she was drunk, she never felt like falling asleep again.

'...'

'That nasty long worm...'

……

After some time, an ink painting appeared in the Duke of Cosiche's residence.

The content of the painting is an indescribable humanoid creature sitting next to a giant cyan monster, holding a cup of tea and looking into the distance.

'Yes, the painting is very good.Especially that humanoid creature, it's very charming... It seems that those wines are not in vain. '

Chapter 1 Zhu Jiuyin: So weird, take another look

"Xi, if you want, I can pull that child's consciousness out of her fragile body and put it in your painting so that she can stay with you for a longer period of time."

"...No need, that child has already made his own decision."

"Haha... Aren't you unwilling to let her indulge in your paintings? If you don't interfere, I don't think she will reject a fantasy world where she can live a carefree life, and she won't be able to wake up from your paintings. .”

"..."

"You don't know whether this is good or bad for her, right? You want to get her life back on track... This is one of your shortcomings, Xi. The impact of existence like us on those short-lived species It is inevitable. Since the influence is already there, why bother to restrain yourself? If you deceive yourself and return the child who is obsessed with your paintings back to reality, can you erase your master-disciple relationship? "

"...Why are you so concerned about this matter?"

"Of course it's because I care about my friends~ Put down the sword! I mean it!"

"...The kid has made his decision."

"Okay, okay, it seems that I worried about it in vain. But people's thoughts are changeable. Maybe when she reaches her old age, she will regret her current decision~"

"She won't."

"What is this? A master's confidence in his apprentice?"

"...Stop using your words and do unnecessary things, Zhu Jiuyin."

"Please, if you didn't value that little guy, I wouldn't want to put in the effort to do that kind of thing. That kind of thing is a bit difficult for me."

'Tsk, it seems that the opportunity to gain favor is gone. '

……

In a cinema in Longmen.

'So why is it like this? '

Sitting between Zhu Jiuyin and Nian, Xi didn't even want to watch the movies she was usually interested in.

She couldn't understand why Nian had to follow her and Zhu Jiuyin to the cinema.

'Does she have nothing to do? '

Xi looked unhappily at Nian, who was sitting on her right, holding popcorn in his hand and staring intently at the movie screen.

'Also, why would this guy agree? ! '

Xi turned her head again and glanced at Zhu Jiuyin, who was also concentrating on watching the movie while holding a drink with a straw.

This guy actually agreed to Nian's request so easily, "Are you planning to go see a movie later? Can you take me with you?"...

All in all, Xi is very unhappy now.

But unfortunately, neither Zhu Jiuyin nor Nian noticed.

In other words, pretend not to see it.

Needless to say, she knew that Xi would definitely not agree, but she insisted on following him to see what kind of person her sister's new friend was.

As for Zhu Jiuyin...

He never expected that Xi really didn't want Nian to come with her.

Based on his many years of experience in getting along with Xi, he felt that although Xi said so and showed such strong resistance, in his heart he definitely wanted to reunite with his sister after a long separation.

No way, Xi is so troublesome sometimes. She says no, and her facial expression also reveals resistance, but she has another idea in her heart.

'Uh... Those short-lived species seem to have coined some new words recently. Do you call such people tsundere? '

Black Snake, who cannot read minds, can only rely on his own experience to make judgments, and there is no way to guarantee [-]% accuracy.

What's more, he has no brothers or sisters, so he cannot understand the emotions between brothers and sisters of the immortal species.

He can only continue to observe and explore other people's cases to improve his knowledge.

'Besides, I'd also like to get to know your brothers and sisters~'

Black Snake, who has been working hard to pursue the end of his life, will not easily let go of the opportunity to go further.

At least, He must have the right to choose.

Just like He was able to refuse to take away Xi who was regarded as a friend by Him...

He also wanted to have the ability to put into practice the act of stealing Sui's power.

As for when to use it, it depends on Black Snake's own thoughts.

……

After watching the movie, the three of them came to a teahouse.

Although Nian had been trying to lure the two of them to a nearby hot pot restaurant, unfortunately they both rejected her suggestion.

Xi doesn't like spicy food, but Zhu Jiuyin definitely supports Xi.

After all, I am definitely closer to Xi than Nian, who I just met not long ago.

"The movie just now was indeed good, but in my opinion, there is still room for improvement."

"Oh~ I wonder what the young director has to say."

"Humph, you've asked the right person. When it comes to making movies, I still have a little bit of confidence."

While everyone was waiting for the food to be served, Nian confidently took out a script and handed it to Zhu Jiuyin.

"But I want to let you take a look at the script I wrote first, so maybe you can understand my point of view for yourself."

'so smart? '

Zhu Jiuyin and Xi thought at the same time.

They don't understand the level of the year.

After all, one has never been in contact with the other.

The other person was that the last time I met him, the movie had not yet been born.

Zhu Jiuyin opened the script curiously.
