Tonight was the night of the full moon. As predicted by Raven 12345, Lily's transformation would take place today. Hao Ren and his tenants woke up early in the morning and got busy preparing.
No one knew what to prepare. Lily was a wild child who had never met other people. She only knew that she was called a werewolf when she watched TV. There was no such thing as a werewolf in Y 'zaks' world. Hao Ren's understanding of werewolves was limited to the movies. The only one who could be of use was Vivian, the sworn enemy of the werewolves.
Vivian flew out to look for herbs and other strange materials last night. She knew some ancient recipes that were used in some special rituals of the werewolves. Most of the ritual items of the werewolves were related to calming the mind and controlling emotions. This was because they were a race that could easily go berserk. The only problem they had to face in various rituals (such as the rites of passage) was their own mental state. Therefore, this race was quite knowledgeable in the field of psychotropic potions. Vivian had been with them for a long time, so she had learned the secrets of the werewolves through some channels. To prevent Lily from going berserk at a critical moment (mainly because she did not believe that Raven 12345 would be reliable), Vivian needed a day to prepare the potion.
As the person involved, Lily was the most relaxed. She was ordered by Hao Ren to rest at home. She was not allowed to go out to bask in the sun or play with the stray dogs on the street. She had to recharge for tonight's evolution and maintain a relaxed state of mind. In order to keep Lily relaxed all day, Hao Ren even prepared half a pot of pork ribs for her. Now the werewolf girl was at home eating the ribs and watching TV. She was in a state of eating and waiting for death. Hao Ren thought that this was the best state of mind.
As outsiders, Hao Ren and Y 'zaks knew nothing about werewolves. The only thing they could do was to go shopping and prepare for tonight's "protracted battle".
Lily's evolution could last for a few hours. In theory, it was from moonrise to moonset. During the process, she could not be alone. Hao Ren, Vivian and Y 'zaks had to accompany her. It was not fun to stare at a giant canine going crazy at the moon all night in the wilderness. Therefore, it was necessary to be prepared. Hao Ren did not know what information he found on the internet. In short, he came up with a list of necessities. It included cheap but sturdy blankets, a disposable tent with good thermal insulation, camping lamps, a lot of ropes and a lot of snacks. When he came out with the list yesterday, Vivian was shocked. At first, she thought that Hao Ren was going to help Lily deliver the baby in the wild. Then, she thought that he was going to elope with Lily. Finally, she confirmed that this guy was preparing for survival in the wild …
Fortunately, although the Southern Suburbs was small, it had all the necessities. The few supermarkets here could basically buy everything on the list, except for the tent. This thing did not look like something that ordinary people would use in their daily life. Hao Ren led Y 'zaks around for a long time. Very soon, they had bought almost everything on the list. Finally, he emphasized, except for the tent.
Now, the two of them were coming out of the supermarket. Y 'zaks was carrying a large duffel bag in each hand. It was filled with the things they had just bought. Anyway, these things could be reimbursed by Raven 12345. Hao Ren did not hesitate to buy them.
"Mr. Landlord, why do you think there are always so many people looking at us?" Walking on the street, Y 'zaks felt a little uncomfortable. This great demon was probably still in the shadow of his own world. He had not gone out for the past two days. This time, when he walked around with Hao Ren, he felt uncomfortable. "And why did the cashier raise her hand the moment I entered the supermarket?"
Hao Ren looked at the great demon, who was 2.15 meters tall, had a fierce look on his face, and a temperament that seemed to have sifted through the sand in Changping for ten years. He thought to himself that the person was not looking at "the two of us", but at you. With this face, if you were to stand on the street, you would be detained for 15 days.
Moreover, the great demon's style was indeed too direct. Just now, when Y 'zaks entered the supermarket, he slammed the list that Hao Ren had given him on the cashier counter. His loud voice was so loud that the whole supermarket could hear him. "Somebody, take out everything on this list!"
How could this not be a bad thing? When the cashier girl saw Y 'zaks face, she burst into tears on the spot. Trembling, she opened the money box and stood outside the cashier counter with her hand raised. Hao Ren heard the commotion and rushed out from behind the shelf. He saw an old People's Liberation Army man squatting on the ground and calling 911 under the cover of cabbage stacks... Fortunately, he came out early!
Of course, it was also fortunate that he had bought a lot of things, so the supermarket owner did not ask him for compensation...
Hao Ren recalled the scene just now, shook his head and sighed. He began to explain to Y 'zaks the normal way of living in the human world. Before he went out, he only talked about the concept of the supermarket and the process of buying things in this world. He did not expect that he would cause such a big mess because he did not explain the details clearly. In fact, he also knew that Y 'zaks had good intentions. The great demon was a warm-hearted person... a demon. His shout just now was entirely out of the mentality of helping. But this was an era where looks mattered. People like Pan An could be considered as having a unique temperament even if he were to show off his flying legs in the street. Y' zaks, on the other hand, could easily be surrounded by plainclothes even if he were to help a child on the street. This was the era of looks.
Y 'zaks listened to Hao Ren's explanation with disdain. "Meaningless, this is a meaningless way of judging. In my world, the most respected war heroes are basically not worth looking at — it's the same for humans and other races. Even those crazy elves know that the scars on the face symbolize honor. Your aesthetic here has gone astray. Justice and conscience should never be hung on the face. "
The corner of Hao Ren's eye twitched as he listened to a great demon talking about justice and conscience. He felt that the whole world was full of contradictions. He knew that Y 'zaks was different among the demons, but he did not expect him to be this different: Oh, by the crazy goddess, when Y' zaks said the words "justice" and "conscience", his face was filled with holy light. Hao Ren felt that this face did not warrant fifteen days of administrative detention.
"This is a social problem. Let's not worry about it." Hao Ren laughed dryly and patted Y 'zaks's arm. "You know the shopping process I told you, right? And the supermarket is not the same as the small shop, and you have to control your voice when you talk to people... "
"I know, there are shops in my world, and money is also a good thing." Y 'zaks shrugged. "Don't look at me because I'm a demon, but I've also wandered in human society. The humans in my world are as cunning as the ones here. They can even mix rice soup in the oil they sell to the goblins. I don't know where they get the idea from."
Hao Ren was curious about what kind of world Y 'zaks came from. It sounded quite similar to the fantasy world he saw in the novels, but he knew that Y' zaks was sensitive about many things about his hometown, so he did not continue to ask.
Just as the two walked past the last intersection, a burst of music from not far away stopped them in their tracks.
Hao Ren followed the sound and saw a young lady sitting in front of a shop on the other side of the intersection. The melodious music came from the guitar in her hand.
It was common to see such street performers at several intersections and bus stations in the city, but it was rare in a small place like the Southern Suburbs. So, Hao Ren could not help but take a few more glances at her.
It was a rather skinny girl wearing a baggy gray sweater and jeans. Her clothes looked a little travel-worn. Her skin was slightly dark, and her facial features were small. She had a simple but spirited ponytail behind her head. She was not very beautiful, but she had a kind of demure and cute temperament, especially when she pursed her lips.
While Hao Ren was stunned for a few seconds, the girl who played the guitar had already moved her lips, and the portable speaker sent her voice to the intersection.
"It's quite nice..." Hao Ren muttered to himself. "But what language is this?"
