"How did you know?" The squirrel demon answered subconsciously, then reacted and looked at him with wide eyes, panicking. "You … You …" It stuttered for a long time but did not get an answer. Tears gathered in its eyes and it looked like it was about to cry. After a while, it asked carefully with a sobbing voice, "Do you … want to buy mushrooms?"
The three of them: "…" Such bad acting skills, which school did he graduate from?
It did not give up and handed two mushrooms, one red and one white, to Lonemoon. "Just buy a pair, okay? Or I can give it to you! " Seeing that they did not take it, it panicked and immediately took the whole basket. "I'll give you all the white ones, I took a long time to pick them. Just buy one red one … okay?"
"No!" He directly revealed his identity. "You're a demon, right!"
"Eh, how did you know …" The squirrel stiffened, a trace of panic flashed in its eyes, but it still held the basket stubbornly. "Then do you want to buy mushrooms?"
"No!" Was this a retard? It did not forget to sell mushrooms at this time.
The squirrel became even more anxious and turned to hand the basket to Shen Ying. "Do you want to buy one?"
Shen Ying looked down. "I don't want vegetables."
It could only raise it to Chef.
"You …"
"I don't make vegetables!"
The squirrel's face turned pale, as if the sky had fallen. The blue chess in its hand loosened, and immediately the mushrooms fell to the ground. The whole demon did not feel good. It sat directly on the ground and broke down crying. "Wah … There's no time, why doesn't anyone buy my mushrooms? Little Flower will be eaten … It's all my fault, I can't save her, wah … "
It howled in grief, and tears streamed down its face like beans. Its originally short body shrunk into a ball, and its large tail slapped the ground again and again. It did not even care about hiding its identity now. It let its hat fall, revealing two drooping triangular ears.
Shen Ying: "…"
Yi Qing: "…"
Lonemoon: "…"
The demons of this plane were like this?
Uh, why did they have a sense of guilt like bullying a child?
"Don't cry!" Lonemoon had a headache and couldn't help but say.
"I want to cry!" It howled even louder, "Little Flower is going to be eaten, it's all my fault … I hurt her! Wow … "
"What Little Flower? Hey, hey, hey, if you cry again, I'll take care of you. "Is this a child?
"Accept me. Anyway, Little Flower is gone, and I don't want to live anymore. Wow … "
"…" Holy shit, is this little demon addicted to crying?
Just as he was about to conjure a hand seal, Shen Ying stepped forward and stuffed the fruit into his mouth. As soon as the crying stopped, the world fell silent.
"Mushroom, who wants to eat your Little Flower?" Shen Ying squatted down and asked.
The squirrel demon was stunned and looked at her with teary eyes. Holding the fruit in his mouth with both hands, he replied pitifully, "I'm a squirrel, not a mushroom." After saying that, he did not forget to hold the fruit in his hands and bite into it while sniffing and answering, "It's … it's the Tiger King. He caught Little Flower."
There were other demons here!
"Who is Little Flower?" Shen Ying continued to ask.
"Little Flower is my best, best friend." The squirrel nodded as if emphasizing. "She's like you, she will give me delicious food. When I was still a little squirrel, I lived on the tree next to her house. She would give me a big, big pine nut every day. He's so good-looking. Look … I look just like him now! "
Lonemoon was stunned. He took a look at its incomplete form. That little flower was a human?!
"But later … she was caught by the Tiger King." It looked sad again. "The Tiger King said that if I could bring other people back to him, he would return Little Flower to me. I waited here every day, but those people were afraid of me and refused to go back with me. So … so … I wanted to use mushrooms. Yesterday, the Tiger King said that if I didn't bring people back, he would eat Little Flower … "
The more it spoke, the softer its voice became, and its head drooped lower and lower. Finally, it looked at them, unwilling to give up. "You really don't intend to buy a mushroom?"
"…" You've already said your purpose, who would buy it?
"Alright, bring us to that tiger demon!" Lonemoon said directly. "We'll help you save Little Flower!" If he guessed correctly, that tiger demon was the one that had been causing trouble in the town recently. And this squirrel didn't have any bloody resentment on it. It seemed that it had never harmed anyone. The Little Flower he was talking about should also be a human.
"Really?" Its eyes lit up and then darkened again. "But … the Tiger King is very powerful!"
Lonemoon couldn't be bothered to explain to it. He directly picked it up with one hand and flew up on his sword. "Where?"
The squirrel was startled and quickly hugged its tail, then weakly pointed to the right.
The few of them flew in the direction pointed by the squirrel. The tiger demon's lair wasn't far. They arrived in less than two minutes. Before they got close, they smelled a strong bloody smell from afar. It even overshadowed the demonic aura that wasn't very strong.
Lonemoon looked at the cave entrance that emitted an unpleasant stench, frowned and walked in. The squirrel was already scared out of its wits. It slipped to the back, thought about it and turned to hide behind Shen Ying. Those who gave it fruits were all good people.
Once they entered the cave, the bloody smell inside was even stronger, and even a little choking. There was a faint cracking sound under their feet. Yi Qing turned his hand and summoned a ball of fire. It instantly lit up the cave.
The cave wasn't very big, and one could see everything at a glance. The tiger demon wasn't in the cave. The whole cave was filled with bones of all kinds of beasts, but more of humans. Some had become white bones, and some still had flesh and blood, emitting waves of stench.
"Great, the Tiger King isn't here!" The squirrel looked happy. He rushed out in an instant and began to search in the cave. "Little Flower … where's Little Flower? I'm here to save you, Little Flower … "It shouted for a long time, but there was no response. It began to search in a panic, and even began to pick up the bones on the ground.
Lonemoon frowned, grabbed the squirrel demon, and dragged it out. "Let's go out first."
"No, I want to save Little Flower …" The squirrel struggled, but was still dragged out. "Let me go!"
"There's no living person inside!" Lonemoon glared at it and sighed. "How long has your Little Flower been caught?"
The squirrel was stunned, and then counted with his fingers. "Four, five, six … I … I don't know. But the Tiger King promised to let me exchange for her. She must … "
"She's long dead!" Looking at the situation in the cave, the tiger demon wouldn't leave anyone alive at all. It was just lying to this squirrel.
