The windows on the second floor were wide open, and the night breeze filled the room.

There is no moon outside the window, but the sky is full of stars.

These fine pieces of starlight converge on the ground, and after the eyes adapt to the night light, they can also see things through this.

You can't see the slightest movement on the ground or in the distance, but you can still see the outline of the city. The eaves and corners of the roofs continue to extend into the distance until you can't tell the difference between them and the night. There is a kind of silent beauty.

A clear voice came from behind:

"What are you looking at?"

"I heard that there are monsters in this city that harm people." Song You lay down by the window and said without looking back, "Miss Sanhua went out for a walk last night. Did you see any monsters walking around at night?"

"I did not see it."

A shadow suddenly jumped up beside him.

The calico cat stood on the window sill, stretched its body, and said at the same time: "But there are many people walking on the road, and they make a squeaking sound when they walk."

"It's patrolling."

"Patrol~"

"The Praetorian Guard."

"Private Guards~"

"It's the human army that protects this city."

"I haven't asked yet!"

"It doesn't matter."

"But Sanhua Empress was walking on the roof last night, and she felt that there were monsters far away, but they were too far away, and Sanhua Empress didn't dare to run over and have a look."

"Stay away from them."

"Are you looking for a monster?"

"just looking around."

"see it?"

"Of course not." Song You whispered, "Maybe it's because it's too poor here and the monsters don't want to come."

"Too poor~"

"Ms. Sanhua, what do you think I would like to buy a couch here? The couch is about this high. Put a coffee table in the middle, about this high." Song You gestured twice at the height by the window. The highest coffee table is probably only at the window.

A little bit below, "This will make it easier for us to watch the scenery by the window in the future, and Sanhua Empress doesn't have to jump up to the window sill every time."

"Miss Sanhua will not fall."

"But the coffee table can lie down."

"Miss Sanhua saw someone sitting on that rocking chair. It seemed very fun."

"Miss Sanhua likes that kind of thing..."

Song You turned around and looked at the space upstairs in the dim light. He felt that it could fit comfortably.

"Does that cost a lot of money?"

“You’ll have to go see it to find out.”

The calico cat turned to look at him and got very close: "Are we out of money?"

"Another point."

"Is it only one o'clock?"

"Roughly the same."

“Can’t a person survive without money?”

"..."

This question actually made Song You think about it carefully.

It seems wrong to say that people can't survive without money. In this day and age, there are indeed many people in remote places who can't use any money all year round, or even use no money at all. When they need salt, they just carry their things and go down the mountain to get it.

They bartered for things and were self-sufficient the rest of the time, living an extremely primitive life.

But if this sentence is wrong, it seems not very appropriate.

The heroes in the book are happy with their grudges, but sometimes they are stumped by a penny, and even most of them are running around for money.

Except for a very small number of hermits in the mountains or orthodox ascetics, most of the masters of spiritual practice in people's minds still need money. The only difference is how much.

The reason why there is Fulong Temple on Yin-Yang Mountain and that many generations of temple owners, many of them willful people, have not demolished it is not because Taoist temples can provide convenience for interacting with the world, and they can also rely on it to collect some money when you are lazy.

Can sesame oil money lead a life of eating and waiting to die?

Song You also needed money to travel around the world.

It's just that people in the world are free and easy. If they have money, they will get drunk all night. If they don't have money, they will go hungry without blame. Taoists are indifferent. If they have money, they will live a better life. If they don't have money, life will be tight. It doesn't matter.

After thinking for a while, he just said:

"Roughly the same."

Xiaomao'er's brows suddenly wrinkled. He obviously had a cat face, but for a moment he could see a bit of sadness:

"Then what should we do?"

"Let's make money."

"How to make money?"

"Think of ways to."

"When Sanhua Empress went out for a walk during the day, she saw someone selling kittens on the road over there." The Sanhua cat raised its chin and pointed in a direction.

"Um?"

"You can sell Sanhua Empress."

"..."

Song You couldn't help but smile: "Empress Sanhua knows this is impossible."

"You sold Empress Sanhua. After you get the money and walk away, Empress Sanhua will run away secretly and come to find you."

"That's not right."

"Can you make money by catching mice?"

"have no idea."

Song You reached out and touched her head: "We just have less money, it's not that we have no money. Besides, we won't starve to death if we don't have money. Empress Sanhua doesn't need to worry about this."

"Won't you starve to death?"

"Won't."

"oh……"

"At no time can you make money by stealing or cheating. But Sanhua Empress is an upright cat, so I don't need to explain such a simple truth."

"Yes."

"Miss Sanhua is indeed upright."

"The woman next door was hanging on the wall and listening to us."

"It doesn't matter."

"She went back quietly again."

"It doesn't matter."

"She went to bed."

"Stop eavesdropping."

"It heard it itself..."

"Go to sleep."

Song You picked her up from the window sill.

The room was quiet for a moment, and then the voice of the calico cat came: "What are you doing? Put me down quickly..."

…

On the third day after arriving in Changjing, Song You got up earlier.

This time I met the heroine when she went out.

Still wearing thick gray and black clothes, which may be easier to carry weapons. When she met Song You when she closed the door, she laughed twice, as if she was a little embarrassed:

"Haha, did you sleep well last night?"

"Good."
