Chapter 1667 Return to Emerald Mountain
Thinking of this, the young man began to get anxious again.

But when he looked at the sky outside, his anxious expression froze.

Even in midsummer, it was already dark at this time.

It's late today.

I can only go to grandma's house tomorrow.

Thinking of this, the young man's heart was still a little restless.

He took several deep breaths before he managed to suppress his excitement.

"妴胡~妴胡~"

The monster flexed its front legs slightly towards Xiao Xiao, thanking him for helping it retrieve the stone.

At the same time, I also said goodbye to this adult.

Now that its stone is back, it's time for it to go home.

After being away for so many days, it misses the sunrise and sunset at home.

……

"Goodbye, Hu."

Xiao Xiao said goodbye to the monster with a smile on his face.

Then he seemed to remember something and asked, "Do you know the way back from here?"

Human society is different from the mountains and wilderness, where monsters can easily get lost.

Hu was stunned.

Which way back?
It certainly -
The monster's face froze.

It discovers that maybe, probably, possibly it doesn't know.

When it came, it followed the evil spirit on the stone.

That's because it was discovered early and the smell left in the air has not yet dissipated.

Now that so many days have passed, let it go back by the same smell it came from...

Is there any residual smell in the air?

Without the smell to guide it, it was completely in the dark and had no idea how to get back.

……

Although the monster didn't say anything, the expression on its face said it all.

Xiao Xiao smiled knowingly.

"I will send you back."

"Hu~"

The monster's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but jump on the spot.

This gentleman is so nice!

……

"Ah, Mr. Xiao, you want to send the monster back?"

Although he couldn't hear the monster's voice, he could hear what classmate Xiao said clearly.

He immediately said, "I'll go too."

"I'll go with you to send the monster back."

Although this monster made his life very tormented during this period.

But, when it comes down to it, he deserves it.

Instead, he was very surprised that the monster just kept repeating in his ear that he should return the stone to it without doing anything else extreme.

This is quite different from the monsters he knew.

He thought the monsters were... more cruel? More brutal?

Or like playing pranks?

Neither of them are good adjectives anyway.

Unexpectedly, he really encountered a monster.

Or a rather kind monster?

I guess we can say that, right?

This made him unable to suppress his curiosity.

Although he couldn't see the monster, he felt a little regretful that he had to separate from it.

Sending the monster home can be considered a perfect ending to this rare fate.

From now on, he will probably have no more interactions with this monster.

……

Xiao Xiao nodded.

"let's go."

"It's getting late."

"It's still some distance from here to Emerald Mountain."

"Ok."

The young man took a few steps towards the door, then stopped and turned around when he realized something was wrong.

Sure enough, Xiao was still standing there.

Without waiting for him to ask, Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked with amusement, "Do you want to take the scroll with you?"

His eyes fell on the scroll the young man held carefully in his arms.

The young man lowered his head following Xiao's gaze.

Then, an embarrassed smile appeared on his face, "Hey, I forgot."

"Student Xiao, wait for me."

"I'll go hang the scroll again."

The young man walked hurriedly into the bedroom.

This painting can prevent monsters from entering. If it weren't for this painting, he would have suffered more this time.

With this in mind, he felt that it would be better to hang the painting back to its original place rather than put it away.

……

Walking out of the bedroom, the young man found that classmate Xiao was no longer in the room.

He quickened his pace.

Opening the half-open door, he saw Xiao Xiao waiting at the stairs.

"Student Xiao."

He shouted.

"Let's go."

Seeing the young man coming out, Xiao Xiao walked downstairs.

"Ah."

The young man turned around, locked the door, and quickly took a few steps to catch up with classmate Xiao who had already walked a little far away.

When he reached the roadside, the young man took a few quick steps and hailed a taxi first.

Classmate Xiao helped him a lot, and he felt that he should be more proactive in such trivial matters.

This time he did not sit in the passenger seat, but sat in the back of the car with classmate Xiao.

After spending time together just now, he felt less unfamiliar with classmate Xiao.

……

Seeing that the young man turned around and looked out the window seriously after getting on the bus just like when he came, Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly.

"Kong Yi."

The young man turned around when he heard the sound.

“It’s not outside.”

The driver turned on some loud music, but he didn't expect the driver to hear anything.

"No-"

The young man lowered his voice, "-outside?"

He looked confused.

Where else is it if not outside?
Wouldn't the monster just follow their car on its own?

Isn’t this what classmate Xiao meant before?
Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "It's on top."

He raised his eyes and glanced upward.

above?

The young man followed Xiao Xiao's gaze and looked towards the roof of the car.

The above refers to...

"…Roof?"

The young man finally reacted.

Xiao Xiao nodded.

The young man opened his mouth wide.

Roof?!
The monster is on the roof?!
This was completely different from what he thought.

He thought...

"Do you think it was chasing the car?"

Xiao Xiao curled his eyebrows in understanding.

The young man opened his mouth.

Is not it?
He had always thought that the monster was running beside the car, so he stared out the window as soon as he got in the car.

result……

Did he take it for granted?

The monster wasn't running beside the car, but was lying on the roof?
The young man smiled bitterly, "Is this considered a hitchhike?"

"turn out to be……"

Do monsters also know how to hitchhike?
Young people always feel that their emotions are somewhat complicated.

But the image of the monster in his mind became more and more vivid.

……

Xiao Xiao and Kong Yi arrived at the foot of Emerald Mountain.

It was late now and there were few people around the foot of Emerald Mountain.

It did provide convenience for some of Xiao Xiao and Kong Yi's words and actions.

……

"妴胡~妴胡~"

Seeing the familiar scenery, a big smile appeared on the monster's face.

finally home.

Although I wasn't out for long.

Compared to the long life of monsters, it is just a short moment.

However, because of the rare anxiety and irritability, the monster felt for the first time how long time was.

Looking back now, the anxiety and irritability I felt back then only left a faint mark.

Very novel experience.

But the monster didn't want to experience it a second time.

It's a terrible experience to go through so much trouble to convey your ideas but the other party never realizes what you're saying.
