Don't talk nonsense, this is the Emperor's Banner

Chapter 346 Encounter on the road
“There are so many people.”

Shen Siyuan arrived at the store that Duoduo mentioned, only to see the door full of people waiting to be seated. He wondered if half of the town's people had come. Was the food really that delicious?

Because there were too many people, Shen Siyuan didn't want to wait here, so he continued walking forward, preparing to find a small shop with fewer people to fill his stomach.

"Hey, why are you leaving? Aren't you going to have dinner here? Their grilled fish is delicious."

Doudou was even more anxious than Shen Siyuan. She grabbed Shen Siyuan's clothes and tried to pull him back.

"There are too many people, let's just forget it." Shen Siyuan reached out and picked her up.

The little guy was floating and swinging on his hand.

To outsiders, Shen Siyuan seemed a little strange, but they had no idea that he had a child hanging on his hand.

The man and three ghosts walked forward for a while and finally saw a small shop. Although there were quite a few people in the shop, there were still empty seats, so they walked straight in.

"Handsome guy, what would you like to eat?"

As soon as Shen Siyuan sat down, an old lady came over with a menu.

"What kind of food do you have?"

"We have seafood, barbecue and stir-fried dishes." The old lady said warmly.

At this time, someone came in with seafood and asked the boss to process it.

As if noticing Shen Siyuan's gaze, the old lady smiled and said, "You can also go to the market to buy it yourself, and then bring it to us, and we will charge a processing fee."

This is a characteristic of the coastal areas. If you bring your own vegetables into the store and ask the boss to process them in other inland areas, you will definitely be kicked out.

"No, just yours will do."

"Actually, they're all the same. They're all fresh. You can choose for yourself."

She pointed to the glass tank against the wall on the right, which was full of fresh seafood. Whatever you wanted to eat, it would be caught and killed right away.

"Give me a grilled fish, some grilled pork belly, and oysters..."

Shen Siyuan ordered some random dishes, but the portions were quite large.

"It's a bit too much, can you finish it?" the old lady kindly reminded.

"Don't worry, I have a big appetite."

Seeing that Shen Siyuan was tall and strong, the old lady didn't say anything else and turned to the kitchen to place the order.

But he came back soon and brought Shen Siyuan a bowl of herbal tea.

"We made it at home, let you try it."

"Thank you."

Shen Siyuan thanked him and poured himself a cup. It was refreshing, not too sweet, and tasted really good.

"Is it delicious?" Doudou asked curiously.

So Shen Siyuan poured another cup, put it aside and let her try it.

Doudou leaned over, took a deep breath, and then shivered, looking cold and sour.

Seeing the little guy shaking his head, Shen Siyuan couldn't help but find it a little funny.

However, although this technique of eating air is good, it can only give a light taste, and is ultimately not as satisfying as eating something.

However, as the banner soul of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, it is capable of more than just this. In the memory of Lord Jiuyou Demon, the banner soul is not just used to defend against enemies.

They can even walk around in the world like ordinary people, with little difference from living people. Unless they have achieved success in spiritual practice or possess the ability to observe qi, their true identity can be revealed.

The Banner Soul can also practice cultivation, and there is no bottleneck in the practice, and the speed of improvement is extremely fast.

In addition, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner has its own laws, and the banner master can bestow these laws on the banner soul, allowing the banner soul to possess all kinds of incredible magical powers. It is a bit like the gods canonized by the Heavenly Court, who will automatically master some powers related to their positions. This is the essence of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

Otherwise, no matter how many ghosts are controlled, they are just a bunch of small fry. For those who practice cultivation, these ordinary ghosts can be killed easily. I am afraid that the master of the banner will die before they can grow up.

Unfortunately, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner is now in tatters, and only one tenth of its power remains, which is why Doudou and the others can only use it as a mascot. Otherwise, when they went to the underworld twice before and met those dead souls, they were not afraid at all and had the strength to fight.

So one day, Doudou and the others will have the opportunity to eat, drink, sleep and rest like ordinary people, and they will also have some special abilities that ordinary people don't have.

Apart from the fact that Yongsheng was enslaved by Shen Siyuan, there didn't seem to be anything bad about it.

Of course, it was just one day, and Shen Siyuan didn’t know how long this one day would be.

After all, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner has only been repaired to one thousandth of its original state at most.

So this is a rather long process, unless other opportunities arise.

However, Shen Siyuan had a vague feeling that this opportunity might still be in the underworld.

After waiting for about half an hour, the dishes came up one after another. During this time, Shen Siyuan called Ruan Hongzhuang and informed her of his location.

The barbecue tasted unexpectedly good. After Shen Siyuan had a full meal, he prepared to continue on his journey.

He came out to practice, not to travel. Although he had walked for a whole day, he did not feel tired at this moment. Moreover, after a hearty meal, he felt even more energetic, so he continued to move forward under the moonlight.

As Shen Si walked away from the town, the world seemed to become quiet in an instant. He subconsciously looked back at the bright lights behind him, and in a trance he felt a sense of independence from the world.

But this feeling comes and goes quickly.

The road was extremely quiet at night. Shen Siyuan, walking under the moonlight, seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.

At this time, Doudou, Duoduo and Xu Shilong did not travel with him, but were taken into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner by him.

The main reason was that Shen Siyuan wanted some peace and quiet, especially with Doudou. This little thing was too noisy, and he didn't want this little thing to destroy his rare peace.

But soon, this peace was broken.

He heard a rhythmic sound of bamboo sticks hitting in front of him.

“Da~da~da…”

The more he didn't want to listen, the more the sound entered his ears.

In this dark night, such a unique sound would scare ordinary people to death.

Fortunately, Shen Siyuan is not an ordinary person. He can even catch ghosts and play with them, so he is naturally not afraid of these things.

So I took a few quick steps, looked ahead clearly, and finally figured out what was going on.

But I saw a thin old man holding a bamboo pole in his hand, and the sound came from the bamboo pole.

And this old man was the beggar Shen Siyuan met when he first entered the town.

He was hunched over, with his head down, walking silently in the dark, looking extremely lonely.

And the young and beautiful female ghost followed silently.

As if sensing someone behind him, the old man stopped and turned around to take a look.

Seeing that it was Shen Siyuan, the old man did not say anything. He just glanced at him with his cloudy eyes, turned his head and continued walking forward, without any sadness or joy, like a walking corpse.

Instead, the female ghost floated directly towards Shen Siyuan.

She first looked around Shen Siyuan, and didn't see the three little guys. She couldn't help showing a little surprise, and at the same time a hint of vigilance.

"Can you see me?"

When they met for the first time, she noticed that Shen Siyuan's eyes were on her.

And now, the other party was looking directly at her.

But she still found it a little unbelievable. According to the rules, only those with weak three fire elements, bad luck, and nearing the end of their lives could see her by chance.

But Shen Siyuan obviously did not belong to this category. His three fires were extremely strong, like three torches in the dark night, illuminating the darkness. His qi and blood were so vigorous that it was terrifying. Such a person would not even be able to avoid ghosts, let alone see them.

This is what she is like now. She dares to stand far away and doesn't dare to get too close for fear of burning herself, so she asked this question.
