Although it is limited to this small Chinatown, it is like a utopia that only exists in people's dreams.
Li Xiang and the others continued to walk, their purpose was to find the stronghold of the Axe Association and snatch the body of Xiang Yu they kept.The utopia-like scenery will not shake Tatsuka's will, and she has already decided what to do at the Roman singularity.
In order to apologize to Sier in the world after the burnout, and to travel around the world with Mash in the normal world.Even if the world inside the singularity is Taoyuan Township, she would choose to burn down the singularity and restore the singularity.
Although this child will probably be tortured by his own essence and want to die.
At this moment, Mash held Lixiang's hand.
"It's okay, senior. We're still together now, just as we agreed at that time."
The knight girl said that Tachika received a declaration from her when she was in the Rome singularity.
Lixiang is right and wrong, and Matthew is wrong and right.Either side alone would be incomplete, but now the two of them are holding hands and staying together.
"...Well." Lixiang nodded, holding Matthew's hand and looking around, "Is this street the dream of the followers here?"
"The servant here seems to be an idiot too."
At this moment, Kabanko suddenly said,
"Maybe we will have a common language with you, junior."
"Eh?"
"It's an easy-to-understand dream. It's easy to understand, but it's a fantasy... The servants here hope that the world will be peaceful, and human beings always have such exaggerated dreams."
"...Ah, what a surprise, Kakashi-senpai can say such a thing."
Lixiang was really surprised.
Although we haven't been together for a long time, judging from Kua Hinako's usual impression, this guy really doesn't look like someone who can say such a thing.
"I'll beat you, you idiot junior."
Not far away, a little girl was running on the road holding a balloon. Suddenly, she accidentally fell, and the yellow balloon flew out of her hand.
The ground in this New York is metal, and she fell really hard.Fortunately, it wasn't a concrete floor, and the metal on the floor seemed to have been designed from the beginning on the premise that someone would fall, so the little girl was not injured.
The little girl was tearful, as if she wanted to cry.But at the same time, she stretched her hand towards the balloon, and forgot to cry for a while because her heart was attached to the balloon-basically, children are like this.
Li Xiang sighed.
She took a few steps back, then jumped into the air with her feet and grabbed the string of the balloon, and controlled herself to land lightly in front of the fallen child.
"Here. Be careful, are you hurt?"
"Thank you... Thank you, sister... Sister, is it the fairy in the old man's story?"
"Fairy..."
Lixiang thought about it.
He is the son of God, even though he has given up being a god, he is still equivalent to a pigeon in mysticism.It is said that gods are gods, so there seems to be nothing wrong with goddesses calling themselves fairies?
"...About?"
"Wow, Sister Fairy is as beautiful as in the story told by the old man."
"Yes, is it? Well, let's not talk about this, let me see where you fell just now."
Hearing Lixiang talk about this topic, the little girl who forgot to cry because of the balloon and the "sister fairy" who suddenly appeared in front of her finally remembered that she still wanted to cry.Her tears flowed out immediately, but it seemed that she didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of the beautiful fairy sister, so she tried her best not to cry.
Children will always burst out willpower that adults cannot understand in places that adults seem inexplicable.
Looking at the little girl's slightly swollen knees, Li Xiang couldn't help frowning.
The medical skills of the burial institution are specialized in treating fatal injuries, and minor injuries are basically directly healed by magic.At this singularity where she can't use magic power, she has nothing to do with such a small injury.
"It's okay, it's just a little bit of a fall."
A voice suddenly sounded at this moment.
Li Xiang looked over, and it turned out that it was an old man with an exaggerated white beard.
The old man looked very capable. He was wearing a dark suit and a yellow coat over his shoulders. He looked like a thug in a suit.
However, he showed a soft and kind smile when facing the little girl who fell down.A few words made the little girl, who was trying not to cry, laugh, and then took out a yellow paper talisman.
"Finally, just post this post again..." the old man said so, and stuck the paper talisman on the little girl's leg, "Fly away~"
"Wow, grandpa is amazing!"
"Be careful, or the balloon will fly away again."
"Well! Then, goodbye sister Fairy and Grandpa!"
Saying so, the little girl happily ran away with the balloon.The old man turned to look at Lixiang, and stroked the braided beard on his chin.
"Fairy...does she have a fairy-like heart. It looks like a few of you are lost?"
Saying so, the old man looked at the other people who followed Li Xiang.
"You guys look a little tired, do you want to sit and rest with me for a while?"
The old man pointed to a booth that seemed to be selling drinks not far away.
"I am very familiar with the streets and alleys of this street. If you have any places you want to go, I can also guide you."
■New York Chinatown·Mobile drink stall [Xinfushui]
Although the singularity of this robot dominating human beings is to some extent equivalent to the singularity of "everyone is an enemy" to Tatsuka and the others.
But who made Lixiang and others not recognize the way?
Anyway, the few of them followed the mysterious old man to the old man's stall.
On the signboard of the old man's booth, there are majestic words in Chinese and English [New Fushui, a brand new taste you have never experienced before]. This kind of unknown advertisement reminds Li Xiang of the old man who put a sticker on the little girl's leg before. thing.
"That paper talisman is full of medicinal herbs."
Lixiang looked at the signboard and said,
"That's actually a plaster?"
"Hehe, did you see it? You are indeed a fairy. That is just a heresy that is like coating a bitter pill with sugar. It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning."
"If the technologies used to better cure diseases and save lives are heretical, there is no right way in the world."
The traverser girl retorted with a smile.
It has to be said that it is really creative to make the plaster into the shape of a paper talisman.
"...Haha, that's true, how can the method of saving people be heretical?"
The old man laughed and seemed very happy.
"A few people looked at each other, could it be that they are travelers?"
Li Xiang thought about it, then nodded.
A person who travels between singularities is, of course, a traveler.
"Old man, you just said that you can show us the way—"
"Oh, don't be so anxious, young man. It's fate that we can meet at this time. How about chatting with me for a while?"
Then, the old man took out several large cups that looked like milk tea cups from under the mobile dining cart that served as a stall.
"I won't let you chat in vain. I can treat you to drink talisman water. This is the most popular drink on this street now... although I originally distributed it for free."
16. There are ways to shirk responsibility
■Chinatown·【Xinfushui】mobile booth
"How about chatting with an old man like me for a while? I can treat you to drink talisman water for free—although this talisman water is free in the first place."
"It's very subtle to treat guests with free things... Even so, this booth belongs to you, old man, so it's not a problem to do so."
Saying so, Lixiang looked at the big plastic cup that the mysterious old man took out from under the counter.
It was a large cup that is very common in places like milk tea shops or fruit tea shops. The few cups that the old man took out were also filled with colored liquid like milk tea or fruit tea.
Looking at those cups, Li Xiang subconsciously blinked.
"...In short, let's ignore the question of why it is talisman water... If I remember correctly, talisman water is water made with paper talismans, right? These things seem to be just milk tea and fruit tea?"
"The times are advancing, so of course Fushui has to improve too. The pure Fushui with Fushui can't be drunk by children now, of course it needs to be tasted a little bit more."
While saying this, the old man put several cups of talisman water with different flavors in front of Li Xiang and the other four.
"Children like it very much, Xinfushui. Lemon and orange flavors are the most popular, but Hong Kong-style milk tea is also popular among many people."
Li Xiang picked up the cup of drink in front of her, shook it, and found that there was actually a paper talisman inside.The yellow talisman paper swirling in the colored liquid—not to mention, it's pretty pretty.
"It turned out to be talisman water... So, is there any point in putting paper talismans in the drink?"
"My talisman is not an ordinary talisman, it is actually a potion granule that I researched before."
"Like Banlangen granules?"
"Yes, it's specially made into a paper talisman... In today's terms, it seems to be called the placebo effect? In short, it's that kind of thing."
Saying that, the old man shook his head for some reason.
"The people are really powerful. As long as there is a little hope of survival, even terminal illnesses can survive. Even if there are no medicinal materials, a piece of paper talisman and a bowl of water can sometimes save a life."
"...So the essence of this milk tea is Banlangen milk tea?"
Li Xiang put down the Fu Shui, and couldn't help but complain,
"It sounds like dark cooking, what kind of medicine is the paper talisman inside?"
"They're all medicines for conditioning the body, like this cup of peach-flavored talisman water."
Pointing to one of the cups of talisman water, the old man said,
"This cup can disperse wind and cold, relieve exterior and clear heat, regulate qi and neutralize, moisten intestines and laxative."
"...Wait, is there a weird function mixed in?"
"There is also this cup of passion fruit-flavored talisman water, which can detoxify the exterior and remove dampness, beautify the skin, regulate the heart and reduce fire, and moisten the intestines."
"So it really has a weird function mixed in, hey!"
"For another example, this cup of lemon flavor, it can relieve cough and asthma, protect the throat and sore throat, promote body fluid and invigorate qi, and—"
"Is it just a laxative?"
Lixiang sighed, lying on the mobile frame,
"Such vulgar jokes are long gone..."
"Accidents are very popular among children, aren't they?"
The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile.
Hearing this sentence, Lixiang remembered the time when he first went to church.
Although Lixiang has a special talent, she didn't become an agent from the beginning.In fact, she started working as a nun at the Church Orphanage... assistant.
"...Is it true? I don't know why the vulgar jokes are very popular among children. The story of pooping and driving away the demons can make a group of idiots cheer for no reason."
"Oh? Have fairies ever raised children?"
"I have worked in an orphanage."
"Then." The old man put down the talisman water cup he had been fiddling with, and looked up at the noisy crowd, "What do you think of this street? Traveler."
"...Go back dozens of steps, and suddenly see the light."
"Haha, this is ridiculous praise, how can this place compare to Taoyuan Township."
The old man looked at the children running around on the street and the adults all smiling, as if he was watching a dream that he did not want to wake up from.
"This traveler, do you know Huang Tian?"
"...the slogan of the Yellow Turban Army?"
"No, it's a dream." The old man closed his eyes, as if recalling, "It is said that water can carry a boat or overturn it. People will resist when they can't survive. But aimless resistance is meaningless. To resist, there must be a leader, and there must be an end.”
"That's Huang Tian?"
"Ah...you won't starve to death, you have clothes to wear when you're cold, you don't have to fight, and you can live well. Everyone who can't survive imagined such a world, and then gave this world a name - [Huang Tian]. It's just like this It’s just a dream, it’s small and not imposing enough.”
Lixiang subconsciously began to look at the whole street again.
