Mist Fairy

Chapter 401
Falling outside the town, Zhang Cundao and Jin Susu walked into the town.

Now it is the beginning of the lights, and the houses and shops in the small town are all lit up. Red, orange and even blue lanterns are hung under each eaves, lighting up the small town as brightly as possible.

Zhang Cundao is used to the bright lights of big cities, and Jin Susu is also used to the scene of bright lights at home.But when they stepped into this small town, they all found something unusual.

The lamps here are not lit by kerosene or candles, but by clusters of will-o'-the-wisps.Red, cyan, white, and orange will-o'-the-wisps burn in the lanterns, illuminating the streets and alleys here brightly.

The streets of the small town are very lively. There are many children playing and running past the street, but looking at their blurred bodies, you can tell that these are not normal children.

Jin Susu gently grabbed Zhang Cundao's hand, and then whispered: "I have heard such a story, it is said that someone walked home at night. When he passed a mountain, he suddenly found a lively town. This person is very strange. He walked After walking this road for more than ten years, there is no small town on this hill. So driven by curiosity, he walked into this small town."

Having said that, Jin Susu paused and frowned.Zhang Cundao had just listened to the beginning, and was about to listen to the follow-up, when he realized that Jin Susu stopped talking.So he asked, "What happened next? What happened after that?"

"Later? Then it's gone. The story ends here." Jin Susu said.

"What kind of bad story is this...Third-rate novelists can write better than him." Zhang Cundao couldn't help complaining.

At this time, the people in the town also found two outsiders, and several people walked towards them. When they got closer, Zhang Cundao saw a faint ghost aura on them.

Without saying a word, he let out some of his body-protecting aura, and the faint aura enveloped him, showing his identity.

These people paused, but they still leaned over.They stopped three steps away from Zhang Cundao, bowed alone, and said respectfully: "What is the business of the monk to visit our town? If it is a transaction, the ghost market is only open on the first day of the new moon."

These ghosts were quite polite, so Zhang Cundao said, "I just passed by here and saw the bright lights below, so I wanted to find a place to rest and ask for directions. There was nothing else."

The ghost glanced at Zhang Cundao and Jin Susu, and finally said: "This place is under the jurisdiction of Yan Mo's Difu. Unless the ghost market is open, outsiders will not be taken in. Please forgive me."

Zhang Cundao nodded after listening. Since it is inconvenient, he is not easy to pester.He was about to leave with Jin Susu, but at this moment, a pleasantly surprised voice sounded.

"Is that you? Brother Zhang, is that you?"

Hearing this voice, Zhang Cundao was taken aback for a moment, and then saw a bone horse running over in the night, and a girl in white was carried on the bone horse's back. He immediately understood when he saw the girl.

This girl is a person from Huangquan Baigudao...

The girl jumped off the back of the bone horse and came to Zhang Cundao at once.She stared at Zhang Cundao closely, and said happily, "You are Senior Brother Zhang!"

Jin Susu glanced at Zhang Cundao strangely, she seemed to be asking, why are there girls you know everywhere?
But Zhang Cundao could only hug her fist and said, "It's Bone Dao's junior sister, why are you here?"

The junior sister immediately said: "I am the guard here. I heard from my little devil that a strongman broke into the town, so I came to take a look. I didn't expect it to be Brother Zhang! Do you know? Ever since Master Yun brought us We missed you after we left. Why didn't you follow Master Yun?"

Zhang Cundao smiled and said, "That's a long story..."

The junior sister immediately said: "Oh, brother, hurry up and go to my residence to talk." After she finished speaking, she took Zhang Cundao's hand and walked towards the town.

This made the ghosts of the town look at each other, but they didn't say anything.This place is the most guarded, so they should continue shopping.

The surname of Bai Gudao's junior sister is Yang, Zhang Cundao only has a slight impression, at that time he was only familiar with Bai Jingjing of Bai Gudao.He is not familiar with Junior Sister Yang, but Junior Sister Yang is too familiar with him. He was the favorite of all the girls of the Bone Dao back then.

Not long after, Zhang Cundao arrived at Junior Sister Yang's residence, and several female ghosts brought them tea and water.Junior Sister Yang chirped and asked: "Senior Brother Zhang, I heard that you left the Netherworld Sect and Master Yun, where did you go?"

Zhang Cundao said: "After leaving you, I traveled around, and then went to the world of longevity. Collecting medicinal herbs, so I came here."

He briefly talked about his own experiences, and then asked, "You guys, what happened to you guys?"

Junior Sister Yang said: "Back then, Master Yun comprehended Dao Yun and was directly promoted to Yun Dao Realm. It became the practice of the Yellow Spring Sect. However, the Yellow Spring Sect existed in name only at that time. Several elders brought most of their disciples to join the White Elephant City. And Master Yun She led us to join the Yan Mo Lord. She is now one of the ten kings of Yama, known as the spider mother Yama. We disciples practice the Bone Path under her command, and we also work in the Yan Mo Difu to earn money. resource."

So it turned out that Yun Ruo also came to the wild world.

The wild world is like a big city in the foggy world, it always attracts elite talents from all walks of life.It is not surprising that Yun Ruo, an ambitious and capable woman, came here.

Junior Sister Yang looked at Zhang Cundao, and then whispered: "Senior Brother Zhang, do you want to go back? In fact, we all know that Master Yun likes you very much. We don't know what happened to you, but please beg her, If you speak softly, Master Yun should accept you. When the time comes, we will practice together, wouldn't that be great?"

Zhang Cundao smiled wryly, he and Yun Ruo really couldn't go back.He shook his head and said, "The matter between me and Master Yun is very complicated, so don't inquire about it. I have no plan to go back either. And now I have joined the Thousand Illusions Sect."

"Thousand Illusions? Isn't this the sect that is fighting us?" Junior Sister Yang was taken aback, but she immediately said indifferently: "They beat them, we beat us, you are still my good brother."

These Bone Dao disciples have no sense of belonging to Yan Mo Difu at all, they are private disciples belonging to Yun Ruo.

Junior Sister Yang sighed, she was a little sad that Zhang Cundao could not come back, but she was already very happy to see Senior Brother Zhang again, what more could she ask for.She took out a bone bead and said to Zhang Cundao: "This is my natal bone bead, Brother Zhang, you take it, you can communicate with me if you have this."

Zhang Cundao took the bone bead, turned it over on his body, and also took out a magic talisman and said, "You can hold this talisman, and you can also contact me." This can be regarded as leaving contact information for each other.

Senior Sister Yang accepted the talisman happily. She carefully put away the talisman, and then asked: "Senior Brother Zhang, what do you need to do here? Just tell us. Our senior sisters have people in various places, and we can help you."

Zhang Cundao smiled slightly and said, "Speaking of which, I really have something to ask for. It is said that your underworld is rich in Ganoderma lucidum, and I just need Ganoderma lucidum for refining medicine. I wonder if you can get it for me?"

After hearing this, Junior Sister Yang smiled and said, "It's so difficult." She thought for a while, and said, "Senior Sister Bai Jingjing has a suitor, and she is in charge of a coffin field, and the quality of Ganoderma lucidum produced there is very good. I I can get it for you."

Zhang Cundao was overjoyed, this was an unexpected joy.He was still thinking about how to contact the people in Yan Mo Jifu, but he solved this problem unexpectedly.He was about to take out a little Tongbao as a deposit.But he immediately remembered that he had no money.

He looked at Jin Susu beside him, he had already asked her to borrow [-] Tongbao, and it would be a little embarrassing to ask her again.So he said to Junior Sister Yang: "Junior Sister Yang, I don't have any money in my hands now, and I may need you to pay in advance. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly."

When Senior Sister Yang heard this, she said immediately, "What's the matter? Brother Zhang doesn't need to worry about this. If Brother Zhang doesn't join hands for a while, it's okay not to give me the money." She can still get it.

When Jin Susu on the side heard this, her face became very exciting again.She glanced at Zhang Cundao, he is very skilled in borrowing money, does he often ask women to borrow money?
……

After finishing their business, the two chatted again.Haven't seen it for many years, but there are still quite a few topics.The female cultivators of the Tao of Bones are passionate and bold, which is determined by the exercises they practice.From sentimental to ruthless, this is their practice of bone way.It's just that most of the time, they will fall into passion and can't get out. How many people are really passionate and ruthless.

Gradually, the sky turned white.A two-and-a-half-year-old rooster in the town also began to crow.When Junior Sister Yang heard the cock crowing, she immediately said: "Oh, it's almost dawn, and the ghost town will be hidden at dawn, I can't tell you more, I'm going to open the hidden formation."

Zhang Cundao also stood up and said: "Since this is the case, then I will continue on my way. Sister Yang, we are destined to meet again."

Junior Sister Yang nodded, and then her body slowly disappeared in front of him.In the next second, a cloudy wind blew past, all the lights in the town suddenly went out, and the whole town fell into silence. Then the scenery in front of Zhang Cundao changed, the seat in front of him turned into a stone, and the room he was in also turned into a stone. a cave.

He stood up and walked out of the cave, only to find that there was a messy forest outside, which didn't look like a town.Jin Susu beside him also stretched at this time, and then said: "Okay, we should continue on our way."

He had already asked the way last night. From here, you can walk a hundred miles east to Qingyong Road, and the Li family is in the Black Stone City of Qingyong Road. This is a local noble family. There are many monks in the family. A relatively large force.

Zhang Cundao and Jin Susu continued to fly towards the east. After flying for a short time, they saw scattered villages and towns.These towns that can be seen in broad daylight are all normal towns.After flying for a while, I finally saw a small city, which is the city of Qingyongdao Li's family - Black Rock City.

Zhang Cundao's goal is the leaves of the loquat tree in Li's old house.

After entering the city, Zhang Cundao found that the houses here were low, much shorter than those in the Tang Dynasty.He observed it and found that the people here are generally short, so the house is also built low.This made him somewhat uncomfortable. Couldn't short people live in a taller house?
In fact, this has something to do with the customs here. People here pay attention to tailoring clothes according to their ability.Even the house is built just enough to accommodate people... Therefore, many things here seem to be pocket-sized, and even the meals are rationed, one less portion, as long as you can live.

The Li family is the largest family in Black Rock City.When Zhang Cundao came to the door of Li's house, he immediately took out a greeting card and handed it over.The guard at the gate saw a tall Tang man coming, well dressed and with a good face.Immediately, he didn't dare to be negligent, and directly welcomed Zhang Cundao into the living room, and then went to report to the master of the Li family.

In the low living room, Zhang Cundao sat a little cautiously. The low roof gave him the illusion that he would hit his head when he stood up. In fact, he would not hit his head when he stood up. At least one foot away. margin.

After a while, the head of the Li family came.He took Zhang Cundao's greeting card and said politely to Zhang Cundao: "The guest is Zhang alchemist from Qianhuan Sect?"

Zhang Cundao nodded and said, "I'm right here."

The Thousand Illusion Sect can be regarded as a great teaching, and it still has some face outside with this name.After the Patriarch of the Li family confirmed it, a smile appeared on his face, and he quickly said: "This is a distinguished guest, please forgive me if the reception is not good."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Zhang Cundao expressed his intention: "I came to visit your mansion this time, because I want to get some loquat tree leaves. I heard that there is a ten thousand-year-old loquat tree in your mansion, which can already transform into a human form." This is the euphemism of Cheng Jing statement.

The Patriarch of the Li family nodded, and he said: "According to your status, it is not too much to ask for some leaves. However, something happened at home recently, and the loquat tree is a bit awkward. I am afraid that these leaves are not easy to obtain."

As soon as Zhang Cundao heard it, he understood in his heart that this was an excuse, obviously raising the price on the ground.But this is human nature, and he has no friendship with the Li family, everything is business.

He smiled and said: "I am willing to buy it at the price of two Tongbao per leaf, and I am an alchemist, if you need, I can help you refine a batch of elixir."

He had inquired about it, and the leaves of this loquat tree were no more than the fruit, the fruit was a spiritual fruit, and the price was high.But the leaves are worthless here, even for the leaves of the loquat tree essence, the prices of these two Tongbao are very reasonable.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Zhang Cundao's words, the owner still shook his head and said, "It's not about the price."

Zhang Cundao frowned. It wasn't a matter of price, so it meant that the price was still low.This man is so greedy, Liang Tong Bao accepts a leaf, and he still thinks the price is low?
Zhang Cundao said lightly: "Patriarch Li, if you are too greedy, you will have no friends."
