Chapter 5 The Truth

With a glimmer of hope to become human again, Gu Lou gritted his teeth cruelly and followed Hydra back to the den of thieves.

Along the way, he carefully observed the "heart" in his chest, and after absorbing the snake slough, the veins inside became clearer.

What exactly is this black pendant? He clearly remembered not seeing this pendant when the skeletons of himself and his senior were unearthed.

They were walking in a white mist.

Suddenly, when passing somewhere, it seems to have penetrated a layer of membrane, and "boo" came to another world.

The temperature dropped sharply, and there was still light snow in the sky.

"Is this the Demon Realm?" A snowflake fell on Gu Lou's fingertips.

"Well, it belongs to the outermost part of the demon world, bordering on the border area of ​​the human world. Generally, weak monsters live together, and powerful monsters are in the center."

Gu Lou sat on the back of Hydra and saw some black buildings from a distance.

The pointed roof and heavy coloring are a bit like the Gothic style of his previous world.

Hydra walked swaggeringly on the street, and the monsters on the road avoided one after another, leaving the road to it. Some weaker monsters were trembling under the powerful pressure.

A goat-horned monster held his sobbing grandson and said, "If you cry again, I will throw you to the hydra to eat you."

The short and thin three-headed creature bit its pacifier, showed its fangs fiercely at the little horned monster, and roared childishly: "Wow!".

The little goat horned monster trembled in fright, holding back two tears with its mouth flattened.

"..." Gu Lou asked silently, "Do you eat the same kind?"

The big head turned his head aggrieved: "Are we like that kind of demon?"

Eyes half-closed: "We just look more aggressive."

Duan Xixiao continued: "Actually, we are very cute!"

"..." Gu Lou looked carefully at Hydra.

The black scales are hard, thick and shiny, and the whole body is covered with a layer of majestic armor. The red eyes look like two crystal rubies in the daytime, and there are two short horns on the top of the head. Small, with a layer of fine fluff on it.

Looking at it this way, it seems really cute.

Three came over with a pacifier in its mouth, and said in a low voice, "Grandpa Yangjiao's grandson is disobedient, we just scare him and he becomes obedient."

With difficulty, Gu Lou choked out a compliment: "You guys are really... willing to help demons."

Talking and walking, soon arrived at the "den of thieves"

The hydra is a maverick and lives in a huge cave by itself. When the big rocks at the entrance of the cave are removed, Gu Lou is shocked!

The whole cave was filled with balls of wool, red, blue, green, pink, and purple furry balls covered the ground and walls.

There was still unmelted snow on Gulou's head, and the Hydra next to him had already made a run-up and fell into the pile of wool.

"Ah!" Datou yelled in pain, "Abba's fangs have pierced me, who put them here?"

"Brother! My pacifier fell off!"

After a while of panic, three pointed heads emerged from the ball of wool and looked at Gulou.

"You come too."

Gu Lou's heart was itching for a long time, he backed up for a run-up, lightly plunged into the wool ball and rolled around.

After playing around for a while, Gu Lou lay down on the ball of wool and asked, "Can you tell me now?"

The big head and the second head looked at each other, one of them took off the pacifier of the younger brother in a tacit understanding, and the other bit a ball of yarn and embedded the younger brother's head in it.

Gu Lou: "?"

what operation?He actually felt that he saw a twist on the two snake faces.

"Hey, look." Datou rolled up the pacifier with his pointed tail and handed it to Gulou, "I picked this up on the edge of the human village 10 years ago. How do you feel when you see it?"

"..." Looking at the pacifier that was still drooling, a string of ellipsis seemed to appear above Gu Lou's head.

In order for the snake to slough and become a human, Gu Lou endured the humiliation and said, "Although it is a bit worn out, I can see the innocence of childhood from this pacifier. It has a unique and unique shape, and a dreamy touch. All in all, It is a rare good pacifier!"

Where is the applause!

The big head and the second head nodded again and again, obviously satisfied: "Actually, my younger brother's actual age is 49 years old."

Gu Lou: "So?"

Big head: "One more week will be my brother's 50th birthday, which is equivalent to...well, the full moon of human beings. It has a very special meaning in our Hydra clan."

Gu Lou: "And then?"

Big head: "My brother loves this pacifier very much, even if he takes a bath, he won't spit it out."

Ertou: "But this pacifier has been used for 10 years, it is very worn out, and the silicone is also a bit old."

Gu Lou vaguely guessed what they were going to do, and asked: "Don't tell me, the burglary you mentioned is to steal a pacifier..."

The big head and the second head said in unison: "Yes!"

"..." Gu Lou thought of the transformation that the little hamster said, if he could transform into a shape, why not just go to the human city to buy one or pick up another one?"Can you change form?" he asked.

The big head and the second head answered at the same time:

"can."

"No."

"Huh?" Gu Lou grabbed the sharp corners of the two heads and pondered, "To tell the truth."

The big head said guiltily: "It is possible, but because we are only 600-year-old cubs, our shape-changing ability is not good, and it is likely to fail halfway, and it is very inconvenient to move, so we need to find a demon that can transform into a human form." help."

Gu Lou thought for a while, the instability of the transformation form is indeed a big problem, but it doesn't have to be him, right?The effectiveness of the snake slough is so great, others must be willing to help.

"Why did you come to me? Based on the conditions you proposed, there should be many demons willing to help you."

Ertou said: "If this matter is not done well, it may be arrested by the special management detachment as a villain. Those monsters who already have monster ID cards are not willing to help."

The big head said: "And if you want to find the big devil, it's not just one or two snake sloughs. We only shed the skin eight times in our life, and every time a head grows, we shed the skin once. Every time the snake sloughs off contains A lot of energy, these energies are from snake sloughs, we cannot absorb them ourselves, but they can be absorbed by other races to strengthen our muscles and bones. Up to now, we only have two sloughs.”

Hearing this, Gu Lou was a little frustrated, there were only two snake sloughs, and one was left for himself, Hydra must be reluctant to give it to himself.

A thin and pointed tail stretched out and tapped on Gu Lou's shoulder. Gu Lou raised his head and heard Da Tou say: "If you can get the pacifier this time, then I will give you the other one too. We will keep it for real. It's useless."

"Really...Really?" Gu Lou was pleasantly surprised.

"Well, two 600-year-old snake sloughs are not enough to use the shape-changing demon to help. We think it is worthwhile if you are willing to help."

Hearing Datou say this, Gu Lou was a little moved: "Thank you, thank you."

He could feel that the snake slough energy had not been completely absorbed by him, maybe he couldn't absorb too much at one time, but even if it was absorbed slowly, he could feel that the 'heart' was getting more and more energetic, as if alive It looks like it's bouncing around.

Gu Lou put away his emotion and took a "deep breath": "Time is running out, let's start planning!"

"Thank you Li." A muffled thank you came from the wool ball.

Gu Lou was puzzled: "Can you hear us?" He obviously only spoke in the heads of the first and the second, how could the third hear it?

"Although our heads are different, the information is shared." The big head and the second head took off the younger brother's woolen helmet and stuffed the pacifier.

Gu Lou: "Then... why do you cover Santou's ears?"

Big head and two heads: "This makes me feel like I am surprising my brother!"

"..." Gu Lou felt that his IQ had been crushed and desecrated by monsters.

In the next day, a snake and a skeleton drew a map in the open space, carefully discussing how to commit crimes.

"We went to Lingshan Town to check out last night, and we met you when we came out." Hydra used its tail to outline the sign on the ground, "There are babies crying in this residential building, and they must have pacifiers. "

"Which floor is it on?"

"On the third floor, you need to step on us to climb up, our body size cannot enter the room."

Gu Lou stroked his chin and looked at Hydra: "The first floor of a human residential building is about 2.8 meters high, and the third floor needs to be 5.6 meters high. Are you that tall?"

"It doesn't seem to be." Datou scratched his head with the tip of his tail: "Residential buildings have anti-theft doors, and unless they are violently destroyed, they can't get in."

It's not that simple...

Little Skull's index finger and key lightly tapped on the ground. Thinking of countermeasures, he glanced at the balls of wool in the hole from the corner of his eye. He had a flash of inspiration and clapped his hands: "Yes!"
