Immortality: Starting from meeting the fox girl
Chapter 69 Yi Su, this birthday gift is a bit heavy
Chapter 69 Yi Su, this birthday gift is a bit heavy (two in one)
The red candle placed in the lantern was quietly spitting out tongues of flame, reflecting the city gate brightly.
On the road into the city, there were red festoons everywhere. The faint moonlight mixed with the luster of the torches, and shed a bright red. The red lanterns in the hands of countless demons and ghosts illuminated the place, making it red and festive.
After coming to this world for so many years and traveling in search of immortals, Lu Chenran has seen many wonderful things. His mind has gradually calmed down, and he has gradually developed a mind that is beyond ordinary people.
But what he saw in front of him was indeed a bit unexpected.
In his impression, the ghost town should be a desolate and desolate place, with dilapidated city gates, dim red lanterns, and the sound of whimpering ghosts filling his ears.
‘So it turns out that ghost towns can also smell like fireworks on earth? ’
I was also slightly surprised and sighed in my heart. Thinking about it carefully, I still have some stereotypes about people.
Why do you have to define demons and ghosts as aliens?
Demons and ghosts also have their own lives.
this is not right.
Fortunately - it's not too late to realize it.
This kind of light is not necessarily brighter even on a night full of blue stars and neon lights.
Looking around, the city gate was wide open, but the surrounding monsters and ghosts were not in a hurry to enter the city. Instead, they were holding lanterns and standing quietly outside, as if waiting for something.
At this moment, the flying man who had been following Lu Chenran came over and stopped about a foot away from him.
Feitouman has been paying attention to the gentleman in fox fur from behind for a long time.
At first, I thought it was the cat that brought him in, but when I looked closely at the cat's behavior, I saw that it wasn't very high-level, and I didn't think it was a cat demon that could bring people in.
Its long neck twisted into a shape, and it stretched its head towards him. After hesitating for a while, it finally asked:
"Perhaps it's a bit presumptuous, sir, is he a 'human being'?"
Lu Chenran was startled for a moment, turned around and looked at the head in front of him, and then nodded gently:
"Exactly."
After the words fell, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
All the monsters and ghosts turned their heads to look at the uninvited guest who appeared in the ghost town. Their eyes were all focused, which made Xiao An feel a little nervous and subconsciously grabbed Lu Chenran's arm.
A few demonic green eyes stared at Lu Chenran and licked their lips subconsciously.
Hearing this, Feitouman cautiously approached and reminded:
"Sir, I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place. This is a ghost town, not a place for people to stay. It's better to find a quiet place and wait for dawn. At dawn, when the fog lifts, you can go out."
Although the monsters and ghosts living in the ghost town are controlled by the city manager, there are also greedy people. Mortals do not belong here after all.
Lu Chenran smiled, not expecting that Feitou Man was a kind-hearted person, and then said:
"Thank you fellow Taoist for reminding me, but Lu didn't get lost here, but heard that there is a mirage tower on Linjiang Crossing, which can travel five thousand miles in a day, so he came here to take a boat."
Feitouman exclaimed in surprise and looked at Mr. Hu Qiu up and down with a look of disbelief on his face:
"Sir, how did you get in!?"
The thick fog at night when crossing the river is invisible to ordinary people. Even the fisherman who has lived in the river for most of his life has only a partial understanding of the ghost town.
This is why people living in Linjiangdu have only heard rumors about this ghost town for so many years, but have seen very few.
"I came from the Lantaoshan River, walked here, looked at the fire here, and then came in."
Feitouman took a step back and looked at Mr. Huqiu up and down again.
Ordinary people can't get through Yinshui.
Could it be that this person is a Taoist monk?
But there is no aura in the whole body, but the closer you look at it, the more mysterious it feels.
"hiss--"
Feitou Man seemed to have thought of something, and then looked at Mr. Fox Qiu with respect in his eyes, and asked tentatively in a low voice:
"Is Mr. Lu also here to attend the City Lord's birthday banquet?"
"Birthday banquet? I don't know about this. Can fellow Taoist please tell me in detail about it?"
Lu Chenran suddenly became a little interested.
Along the way, I heard a lot of stories about the city lord here. Without exception, he was the new city lord of this ghost town. He was iron-blooded and merciless. He was a terrifying monster.
——If you say you are not curious, you must be lying.
Feitouman retracted his neck, glanced around, lifted the lantern in his hand, and then said:
"The ghost town used to not be so lively. Tonight is the city lord's birthday banquet, so the big demons around Linjiangdu came here together to spontaneously congratulate the city lord on his birthday."
As he said this, he pointed at Lu Chenran within the scope of etiquette.
Among them are some great demons who have been practicing for thousands of years, and their energy and blood are so powerful that they are probably not inferior to the white dragons in the water.
"I see."
"Mr. Lu should have brought a lantern in."
"It's Lu who didn't think well."
Gradually, more and more demons and ghosts converged towards the ‘Linjiang Crossing’.
The flowing clouds in the sky cover the dim moonlight, and the light formed by the interweaving of red lanterns stretches here, like a long dragon, which is quite beautiful.
Looking at everything in front of me, it does seem a bit unusual to be empty-handed.
Lu Chenran thought for a while, then took out the firefly mushroom from the bag, found a pine branch, and hung it on the end of the branch, picking it up one by one.
The firefly mushroom glows with a soft halo, spreading out into circles of ripples.
It can be considered integrated into this place.
"Dang——eng"
"Dang——eng"
The bell rang here again.
The city gate was completely opened.
There was a slight breeze, which immediately brought out the fragrance of flowers.
Then, all the demons and ghosts were divided into two rows from the left and right, leaving a wide avenue.
The air was filled with the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, and then in Lu Chenran's sight, two snow-white rabbits walked out of the city gate, about half a person tall, carrying a flower basket in their hands, lightly covered with a piece of silk cloth. It is filled with osmanthus petals.
Amidst the noisy sound of gongs and drums, the rabbit's paws kept blowing sweet-scented osmanthus flowers to both sides.
The cold wind is mixed with the fragrance of osmanthus, which is intoxicating.
"Mr. Big, it's a rabbit!"
Xiao An opened his round eyes and said.
"Shh-"
Lu Chenran patted Xiao An's head and signaled her to be quiet.
The snow fox in his arms felt something. He raised his head and looked towards the city. He frowned slightly and murmured to himself:
'Um? Why is she here? ’
After counting the days in my mind, it seemed that it was indeed her birthday.
‘I actually forgot about it. ’
Xue Hu blinked his eyes, then thought about something again, and continued to curl up lazily in Lu Chenran's arms:
‘It’s not like I forgot one or two years. Forget it. ’
Accompanied by the din of gongs and drums, the faint sound of ethereal harp and harp sounds came from the city.
"Bu Dong——"
The sound of the piano slowly pulled at the heartstrings of all the demons and ghosts, as if it was grabbing people's souls and spreading all the way.
The clouds that obscured the bright moon dispersed, showing favor like water.
About a dozen rabbits carried a luxuriously decorated red sedan chair and walked out of the city gate in a blink of an eye. A rich fragrance continued to fill the air.
After seeing this sedan chair, all the demons and ghosts bowed down respectfully, their eyebrows full of fear and respect.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chenran's heart was full of wonder, and his surprise became more and more intense. This unknown novelty gave him an unprecedented feeling.
It's just that the scene of the monsters worshiping the rabbits is a bit funny.
Feitou Man, who was on the side, saw the sedan chair getting closer and closer, heading towards it along the avenue. He hurriedly leaned down, stretched out his hand to pull Lu Chenran, and reminded him in a low voice:
"Mr. Lu, lower your head quickly, the Lord of the City is here."
The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Feitou Man was a little anxious, but he still bent down and lowered his head, for fear that his actions would collide with this adult.
Not long after, the sedan chair carried by a group of snow-white rabbits stopped in full view of everyone. Then a pair of delicate white catkins protruded from the curtains, and a piece of snow gauze swayed in the wind beside the carriage shaft, waving to one of the rabbits.
next moment.
Then he saw the snow-white rabbit taking a token from the hand of the person in the sedan chair and jumping towards Feitou Man's direction.
Then, he stood still and lowered his head.
He leaned over and handed the token in his hand respectfully:
"Thank you sir for remembering your birthday."
"If you are not busy, sir, please come to your residence to have a talk. My lord has invited me!"
"."
As he spoke, all the monsters outside the ghost city looked at the person who took the token in astonishment.
This person is wearing a fox fur coat, with a wine gourd on his waist, holding a snow fox in his arms, and holding a child who looks like a porcelain doll. This is not the key -
The important thing is that this gentleman looks ordinary no matter how you look at him. He can't feel any Taoism and there is nothing magical about him. If he were walking in the world, he would be just the most ordinary ordinary gentleman.
However, to be able to appear in a ghost town and receive a personal invitation from the Lord of the City, how could he be an ordinary person?
Feitou Man on the side swallowed his saliva wildly, lowering his head and not daring to look, but his long neck was already trembling slightly.
The reactions of the surrounding demons and ghosts were not much different from those of Feitou Man, but they glanced at Mr. Fox Qiu from the corner of their eyes and began to think wildly:
‘Who is this person? ’
‘Invited personally by the City Lord? ’
'And judging from the tone of the city lord, he is still respectful. I am afraid he is a profound person, at least not inferior to the city lord.'
‘Who is this person? ’
In full view of everyone, Lu Chenran subconsciously took the token and was a little confused for a moment.
It was my first time to come to this ghost town, and everything seemed strange to me. Listening to the tone of the city lord, it seemed that he knew me. Have I ever seen the character of the ghost town lord?
This token is quite small and should be made of cinnamon wood. It is light and soft, and still has a delicate fragrance.
Immediately afterwards, the title page of the golden book floated in my mind:
[Becoming acquainted with Guimu Xianpai: (0/30)]
[Rabbit is a fairy. Rabbit cuts down the osmanthus tree to make laurel cards. It is full of fairy spirit]
【.】
Lu Chenran was suddenly a little surprised. He didn't expect that this mediocre token could be as good as his own. Who is the lord of this ghost town?
But there was no time to think too much. If he saw the city lord later in the night, he would know everything.
He carefully put the token into his bag, bowed his hands to the snow rabbit in front of him, and said respectfully:
"Thank you for the invitation, sir. Lu will definitely visit on time."
The big white rabbit nodded, then jumped back to the sedan chair with a flower basket in his arms.
The sedan chair got up and continued to march forward——
He stopped next to several thousand-year-old demons one after another, but none of them handed over the token like the previous Mr. Fox Qiu. He just said something verbally, but the meaning was the same as what he said just now. They all came in the middle of the night. A narration in the house.
There are not many demons and ghosts who are qualified to go to the mansion to celebrate the birthday banquet of a big shot like the Lord of the Ghost City. The demons and ghosts also understand that at least the hundreds of thousands of demons and ghosts in the Lord's Mansion cannot be accommodated.
But this different treatment also made the demons and ghosts become more and more curious about the identity of Mr. Fox Qiu.
What kind of character is this?
I'm afraid not.
An idea suddenly appeared in the monster's mind, and they looked at each other in confusion.
After the float parade was over, a group of demons and ghosts began to pour into the ghost town one after another, carrying various goods with them, it seemed like a temple fair in the world.
In the ghost town, the same lights are brightly lit, and there are small stalls here and there, which seem to be prepared for these monsters and ghosts. Countless monsters and ghosts are shuttled among them, and the various decorations are quite wonderful.
Feitou looked at Mr. Lu in front of him carefully and bowed:
"I've been offended a lot before. I hope you, sir, won't take it personally."
Lu Chenran shook his head, helped him up, and said with a smile:
"No, I have to thank fellow Taoist, but Lu has some important things to do, so I won't accompany you yet."
Feitouman nodded quickly:
"Goodbye sir!"
Then, he looked at Mr. Lu's retreating back and was in a daze for a moment.
A lot of monsters gathered around them, and they started to gossip:
"Feitouman, who is that gentleman? Do you know him?"
"Tell me quickly!! Quickly!"
"Oh my god, the city lord personally invited you. I can't even think about it."
"."
Feitouman coughed for a moment, circled his neck in the sky a few times, suppressed the joy in his heart, and said seriously:
"You are just human beings. Look at your appearance, you are not stable at all."
"Human Immortal? What? Really an Immortal!! Feitouman, do you really know this Immortal?"
"I can't say we know each other, I just said a few words to my husband. Well, how do you know that my husband even praised me a few words? If you say something great, you will be enlightened."
A wild boar spirit looked at it with envy, then rubbed his hands and said:
"Feitouman, you are so prosperous! If you are really diligent in your Taoism, don't forget us when you go."
A pheasant spirit nodded repeatedly:
"Feitou Man, the immortals all say that you are a great person, so if you just go down this path, you will definitely gain something!"
Feitouman shook his head, and the corners of his mouth almost raised to the sky:
"I don't care about Mr.'s compliments. I reminded him to make the lanterns. I couldn't help it. The immortal talked to me as soon as he came in. Maybe he thought I was talented!"
"."
"Wow - Xiao An is so envious of you."
Xiao An licked his fingers and looked at Feitou Man and said.
Feitouman: "?"
It was stunned for a moment, looking at the little girl in front of it, then turned its neck in a circle, and looked at Mr. Lu who turned around to look for Xiao An, and his face suddenly showed a bit of embarrassment.
"Cough-cough-"
Lu Chenran smiled at it, then pulled Xiao An over and said:
"Children are naughty, please don't take it to heart. Lu will leave first."
Then, he turned around and merged into the flow of "people", disappearing from the sight of several monsters.
Feitou Man opened his mouth, his face suddenly turned red, and he shrank his neck.
Ghost town.
The attic on the top floor of the City Lord's Mansion.
The refreshing scent of cinnamon floats quietly.
A huge pool inlaid with white jade is dotted with light shiny pebbles.
The hazy light reflected in the water, countless petals floating on the water, the ripples in the water were gentle, layers of mist spread, a beautiful figure emerged from the water, stood up, three thousand hair was wetted by the water, and was full of vitality. The jade fingers floated the messy long hair behind her head, and crystal water drops dripped down.
The long eyelashes were shaking gently, and the eyes were closed tightly due to the splash of water. Under the hazy moonlight, the fragrant shoulders were as dazzling as snow-white.
Her bare hands were slightly closed, holding up the osmanthus petals in the pool, and her red lips gently blew the osmanthus water in her hands.
Then, it was gently thrown into the air, and the petals smashed into the pool water along with the water splash, causing ripples.
The woman's red lips raised slightly, then she looked at the full moon outside the window and said to herself charmingly:
"Yisu, long time no see."
"Your Ran'er, is this a birthday gift for me? This birthday gift is a bit heavy."
"."
ps: Yisu: "Please vote for me! Please recommend!!"
