I Really Am Not The Lord Of Demon
/ I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 226
“Customer, do you want to eat it with me?”
“It's very delicious!”
“Really!”
Ran Bing's body trembled as she listened.
Because her eyes saw the appearance of the snake that was handed over!
He was held in his hand.
He was struggling crazily!
His body was sometimes big and sometimes small. In an instant, he changed countless poses.
One moment, he was a terrifying monster that was as ferocious as a ghost in a nightmare.
The next moment, he was a terrifying giant snake that was winding around the sun!
The next moment, he was a magical creature with an incredibly beautiful feather crown and wings.
The entire bookstore was shaken by the monster's struggle.
Around the owner of the bookstore, there were endless space ripples.
It was the Snake Monster's resistance as it struggled with all its might.
Unfortunately…
The owner of the bookstore only raised his hand slightly. All resistance and struggle eventually disappeared.
The snake monster once again turned into a weak, limp little snake.
He was held in his hand, and all his bones were broken. The small, feathered head was drooping, and the terrifying snake eyes were staring blankly.
Eat him?
Ran Bing immediately shook her head, and her face was a little pale. “Thank you for your kindness…”
“But…” she thought for a moment and swallowed back what she wanted to say.
If she rejected him directly, the consequences would be disastrous!
Because Ran Bing knew that she had no right to refuse!
But she did not dare to agree.
Ran Bing was not stupid. She could imagine the identity of the snake.
Most likely, it was the so-called father of all snakes that the K'n-yanians believed in.
The source of her world's disaster.
So, it was the god of snakes!
Eating a god of snakes?
Ran Bing only thought about the Scarlet Beasts and the umbrella's staff, which were neither human nor ghost and instinctively resisted.
Moreover, that was a tribute.
What did the meaning of a tribute mean? There was no need to explain!
So, Ran Bing thought for a moment and chose to answer honestly, “I don't dare to eat…”
Indeed!
She didn't dare!
Not only was she afraid of being deformed, but it was also because… she didn't have the right!
Ling Pingan looked at the customer in front of him and scratched his head.
“You dare to capture it but not eat it?” It was a little strange!
However, this was a very normal thing.
Just like Ling Pingan, he had never eaten coriander or celery since he was young.
So…
Ling Pingan felt troubled as he held the snake in his hand.
Because, although he loved to eat…
He didn't want to kill living things!
Since he was young, Ling Pingan had never personally killed anything other than fish and prawns.
The main reason was that he was afraid of blood!
He originally thought that he could ask this customer to help him kill it and then eat it together as supper.
But now it seemed…
Looking at the pale face of this customer, Ling Pingan probably knew that she didn't dare to kill it…
But here came the problem…
Since she didn't dare to kill it, nor eat it.
How did she come up with the idea of bringing a snake here?
“Does her family breed snakes?” Ling Pingan thought, “It should be!”
There had been a tradition of eating snakes in Guangnan since ancient times!
After all, ancient Guangnan was a wetland.
Eating snakes, frogs, owls, and mice were all traditional skills.
Back in the day, the great writer Liu Zongyuan loved eating frogs after he came to Guangnan. He even wrote a letter to his good friend Han Yu to introduce a few ways to eat frogs.
However, after the advent of industrial civilization, environmentalism became deeply rooted in people's hearts.
No one ate wild animals anymore.
Then the breeding industry rises.
Ling Pingan remembered that there were several breeding bases for snakes and frogs in the rural areas of Jiangcheng City.
They specialized in supplying ingredients to restaurants in Jiangcheng City. It was safe, hygienic, and cheap.
Therefore, in Ling Pingan's mind, the snake should have been bred in the customer's breeding base or taken from a friend.
As for wild snakes?
Ling Pingan had never considered it.
That was because the federal empire had a complete wildlife protection act.
All wild snakes were classified as ‘prohibited from being captured or eaten', and the rare species among them were even determined to be ‘imprisoned snakes'.
No educated adult would do such a stupid thing!
The forest police would not allow anyone to swagger around the city with a wild snake in their hands.
Thinking of this, Ling Pingan said to the customer, “Customer, please take a seat… I'll take care of this snake first!”
Since he did not dare to kill it, the customer did not dare to kill it either.
Then, he could only choose another method. He might as well soak it in the wine!
In any case, the jar of wine was still there.
Why not make it into snake wine and wait for his aunt to come back, then give her a surprise or a scare!
Thus, he carried the snake in his hand and turned around to walk upstairs.
Ran Bing carefully sat on the sofa.
She looked at the owner of the bookstore, carrying the snake god in his hand and walking step by step into the distance.
His figure swept past the Silent Dark Abyss.
He walked to a staircase that flowed with darkness.
Creak! Creak!
The staircase made a strange and terrifying sound under his feet.
The countless terrifying evil eyes opened in the dark staircase.
Countless huge tentacles slid silently in the darkness.
The terrifying murmurs rustled.
“Traitor!” They seemed to be saying, “Betraying your master… you deserve to die…”
These terrifying murmurs were whispered in an extremely terrifying and strange language.
But for some reason, Ran Bing could understand them.
However, at the same time that she understood them, Ran Bing suddenly realized that her blood was freezing.
She lowered her head and saw a layer of frost-like things slowly spreading from her skin.
That was her punishment for hearing and seeing things that she shouldn't have heard or seen!
The frost quickly condensed!
It froze her, even her soul!
What was worse was that in this bookstore, Ran Bing found that she had lost all protection.
That made her panic.
Meow!
A cat purr pierced through her soul.
The small black kitten jumped down from the counter and onto her body.
Behind the cat goddess, the pyramid began to appear.
A faint golden light comforted Ran Bing.
The frost quickly disappeared!
Ran Bing regained her freedom!
She looked at the cat sitting on her lap and quickly said, “Thank you!”
Meow!
The Cat meowed softly as if saying, “This is what I should do, no need to thank me.”.
Then, it jumped down from Ran Bing's body and obediently lay at Ran Bing's feet.
She was like a loyal hound and like a cat guarding the granary for its owner.
Ling Pingan opened the refrigerator door and took out the wine bottle that the customer had sent him last time.
He opened the bottle cap and put the snake in.
It was a little strange.
Originally, Ling Pingan was worried that the wine bottle might not be able to hold the snake.
But…
He only released the rope that bound the snake, and the snake slid into the wine bottle.
And it looked just right!
He scratched his head and didn't think too much about it. He stuffed the wine cork back into the bottle.
Then, he placed the wine bottle beside the fridge. After doing that, he turned around and walked downstairs.
The moment he went downstairs, monsters crawled out from under the sofa in the living room one after another.
These monsters were about the size of pigeons. They had ten tiny long legs, but these legs were covered by the glowing tentacles that grew out from both sides of their bodies so that outsiders could not see them.
They did not have eyes or other exposed organs. Their actions seemed to be entirely dependent on the glowing tentacles to sense.
They crawled, densely packed, an uncountable number of them. The entire living room was filled to the brim!
They crawled towards the wine bottle that was placed beside the refrigerator.
They covered the wine bottle densely.
From their stomachs and mouthparts, slender and sharp needles stretched out.
These needles were incorporeal!
They stabbed towards the wine bottle, easily piercing into it.
The wine bottle immediately shook violently.
But in an instant, there was no movement.
But those terrible monsters did not stop.
Their tentacles flickered with terrible colors in the darkness, interweaving into a complex and terrifying whisper.
That was a great job.
It was also their job.
To satisfy their master's requirements for food or anything else!
Even if it was to slaughter an old dominator, even if it was to break up outer gods.
They were very familiar with it. In the past countless years, they had already completed countless similar tasks.
Their tentacles were shining, and their excitement was transmitted to each other!
The progress of their master's awakening had been accelerated.
He was about to wake up.
Ideally, they only needed to wait for a few more decades before their master woke up!
For them, such a short amount of time was equivalent to the blink of an eye. It was short and fast!
They only thought that once their master woke up, he would know everyone's loyalty.
Every monster was exceptionally excited!
To be able to receive their master's praise, even if it was just a look, even if they were to die, they would still smile!
Thus, they worked even harder and harder!
Right…
Some of their tentacles flickered as they doubted.
What was their master's request this time?
Oh…
To make this traitor's soul into a delicious pure brew for his aunt to drink…
Walking down the stairs, Ling Pingan saw that the customer seemed to be sitting on the sofa with a little reserved.
He walked over with a smile, picked up a teacup, and brewed a cup of steaming tea for the customer.
Then, he handed the cup of tea over and said, “Customer, please drink some tea to moisten your throat…”
Ran Bing looked at the cup of tea that was handed to her.
The tea was like gold, and its fragrance assailed her nostrils.
A certain substance rose from the surface of the tea.
“Is this a reward for my tribute?” Ran Bing thought, picked up the teacup, and carefully took a sip.
Sweet!
That was the first feeling of her taste buds!
This sweetness was not the sweetness of the sugar but the sweetness of the soul and genes.
The sweetness of joy and excitement all over her body!
Then was the fragrance!
After one sip, a fresh taste filled her lips and teeth.
With just one sip, Ran Bing felt as if she had been cleaned.
The killing and battles over the past few days had left some maladies and influences in her heart and soul as if they had been gently wiped by a rag.
Her soul and consciousness felt relaxed.
Her long-repressed heart relaxed even more.
Ran Bing couldn't help but take another sip.
Ling Pingan looked at this customer and asked, “Customer, have you finished reading the book from last time?”
Ran Bing shook her head. “Sir, your book… is too profound…”
“I'm a little stupid… I haven't finished reading it yet…”
“Profound?” Ling Pingan was curious. “It's very simple…” he said.
“That's because I'm too stupid!” Ran Bing put down her teacup and lowered her head in shame. She felt that she had let down the owner of the bookstore's expectations!
Ling Pingan scratched his head.
“Could it be that there are some incredible and profound stories written in “Guns Girl” that has a deeper meaning?” He thought.
It was just that he had less contact with such female-oriented comics.
So, he couldn't understand.
After all, men and women had different understandings of many things.
For example, he still couldn't understand why the girls who like Boy Love on WeChat read would shout ‘Be couple' when they saw two male celebrities together. He also didn't understand why male celebrities nowadays could become popular just by showing Boy Love.
They didn't need to act or sing!
They didn't even need talent!
As long as they had Boy Love scenes, there would be a lot of girls who like boy Love that was willing to be their fans!
So…
Ling Pingan could only accept this reality.
Otherwise, what else could he do?
After thinking for a while, Ling Pingan asked, “Then, customer, are you here for the same type of book?”
“Yes!” Ran Bing nodded.
She reached into her pocket and took out the three banknotes that she had obtained from the origin that she had painstakingly killed over the past few days.
“Please forgive me!” She stood up and bowed in shame. “I only have this much money…”
“I don't know if it's enough to buy a book from you…”
Ling Pingan looked at the banknotes that were handed over.
Brand new banknotes!
Bright red hundred-yuan banknotes!
Then, he looked at this rich customer.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, “She is a rich customer…”
“I guess this is the first time this customer is spending money…”
Countless legends about the children of the rich appeared in Ling Pingan's mind.
Butler, servant, bodyguard…
The super-large mansion, and using helicopters as transportation.
Shopping was always about buying, and paying the bill was someone else's business.
It was estimated that this customer had taken these three banknotes from her butler or servant.
And judging from her expression, she probably had no idea how much she could buy with that money!
Thinking of this, Ling Pingan reached out and took the banknotes from this customer.
He smiled and said, “It's completely enough!”
“Do you still want the same type of book as last time?” He asked.
The customer seemed to nod her head blankly.
Ling Pingan immediately smiled and said, “Customer, please wait a moment…”
He felt proud in his heart. “I knew my strategy was right!”
Look, the kindness last time didn't only get rewarded. The customer even brought a snake as a thank you gift!
Perhaps, that snake was an expensive species!
He even received a business deal!
Three hundred yuan!
That was probably the biggest business deal he had done in the past month or so!
Thinking of this, the young bookstore owner happily hummed!
But he had no idea what kind of image he had in Ran Bing's eyes at this moment!
Ran Bing looked at him in a daze.
Her pupils reflected the scene she had seen.
The moment she handed the three banknotes to the owner of the bookstore.
Each banknote was suffused with a brilliant light.
The light flowed like water towards the head of the owner of the bookstore made of fog!
It was like a siphon.
The light was continuously sucked into the head of the fog.
In a short second, all the light was sucked clean.
Ran Bing saw that in the head formed by the fog, under the thin lenses, the flames in the eye sockets grew a little larger than before!
“Is this his true goal?” Ran Bing thought, “To devour the origin of the World?”
