Taking advantage of the large crowd outside the city, Chu Wuji hurried into the city. At this time, the city would not be so crowded and noisy, which was suitable for the preferences of the Sky Fox Queen and others.
I like to join in the fun, but I don't like it to be too noisy. I am very picky.
"Empress Tianhu, please sit down quickly. I'm going to speed up." Chu Wuzhi patted the tender feet on his shoulder. The feet were soft but with the bony texture of a beauty.
As the saying goes, beauty lies in the bones, and beautiful feet are no exception.
The Fox Goddess supported the young man's head and sat down. Her snow-white, plump thighs rested on both sides of his cheeks again, and she asked curiously:
"Why are you running? Is there something urgent you need to do?"
Bai Sujin also asked, "Wuji, you've never been here before, right? Did the immortals from the Shenxiao Sect ask you to do something?"
Chu Wuji had already started running. With each big step, his black and white hair was flying, and the pair of plump fruits of the Sky Fox Goddess were shaking along with it.
As he ran, he said, "I want to see if there is Hailan's house here!"
The three great demon elders were silent, thinking it was some big deal...
He ran to the busiest streets and saw a "Lantian Chamber of Commerce", which he almost mistook for Hailan House.
It seems that this place is really isolated. Considering the behavior of Manager Guan and his colleagues, they didn't even come here to expand their business.
"No matter what, we'll just go shopping normally and eat afterward."
After running for so long, Chu Wuji had already marked several shops he wanted to visit in his mind, and now he went straight to visit them.
It is hard to say about the situation of other county towns in the Sericulture Country, but just looking at this Shoujiang City, there are indeed many silk and brocade products!
It is estimated that the excessive production of silk has led to the development of many types of clothing. In this place, silk stockings seem to have developed from silk trousers.
There were too many pants to sell, so they were replaced with socks.
In order to increase sales and sell out the stockpiled goods, we are really racking our brains to find a solution.
The Fox Queen was amazed. Just in terms of silk fabrics, the ones here were even more colorful than those in Wenshui County. She exclaimed in amazement:
"Silk veils and silk stockings are understandable, but why are there silk hand stockings?"
Aunt Green Snake pondered carefully, and suddenly she had an idea. She felt that she had found the answer:
"When I help that brat Wuji, will he feel smoother? Do you have any silk tongue socks here?"
"......" Chu Wuji was ashamed. Sometimes he really admired his aunt. She really had a broad mind.
But it is understandable that just seeing the independent accessory of "silk leg ring" can easily lead to associations with other things and let one's thoughts run wild.
He said, "Goddess Sky Fox, don't use magic to mimic this time. The silk's origin should feel quite novel when worn. Just consider it a small contribution to the unsaleable clothes here."
The Fox Queen didn't mind. It was nice to try something new. Seeing so many clothing accessories here, she was curious about what it would feel like to wear them.
The fox girl nodded and said with a smile:
"It's fine that we need help with floodwaters, but why do we even need help with unsold silk stockings?"
The white snake and the green snake crawled under Chu Wuji's collar, poked their heads out from the left and right, and accompanied him to browse the clothes.
Aunt Green Snake suddenly showed a look of joy. She stuck her pink tongue towards an inconspicuous corner, told Chu Wuji to look at that place, and said happily:
"I was just wondering, why don't they have eye masks when there are even hand socks and leg rings? I didn't expect there really is one~ specially prepared for my sister!"
"......" Bai Sujin was a little shy and helpless.
Chu Wuji looked over and found that there were quite a few styles of eye masks, mainly embroidered patterns and supplemented by hollow patterns, which looked quite romantic and interesting!
The shop owner was quite puzzled as to why this customer brought a female companion who could make different voices.
I think he is a Taoist priest practicing in a temple, so it is normal for him to have some strange habits.
The shop owner came over, cleared his throat, and politely reminded:
"Sir, that's not a blindfold, it's a belt... But if you like it, how you use it after you buy it is up to you."
Aunt Green Snake choked and said, "I didn't expect that I was wrong. Who would make such a fancy belt?"
Chu Wuji turned to the shopkeeper to discuss the price: "I want to buy more, can you give me a discount?"
The shop owner readily agreed. He was not afraid of too big a discount, but was worried that he would not be able to sell the goods. Many businesses had to rely on the merchant company to ship the goods for export.
"What would you like, sir?"
Chu Wuji thought for a moment, then pointed seriously at three plain, simple bellybands and underpants. After pretending, he immediately revealed his true colors:
"Please help me buy the most fancy ones with the most hollow ones. I'm mainly worried that the store won't be able to sell them. I'll just consider it a good deed."
The shop owner remained silent, but the sudden influx of big business was a good thing after all.
Although Bai Sujin was complained by her sister for most of the day, she also helped Qing Snake pick out her dress:
"This type of long skirt with a more rigid silhouette is quite suitable for Xiaoqing."
Chu Wuji looked over and agreed with the White Snake Mother's vision.
The skirt Bai Sujin chose was similar to a horse-faced skirt. It lacked the softness and elegance of an ordinary long skirt, but its straight and neat lines were extremely suitable for the green snake's heroic temperament. The design of black background with gold embroidery also showed a sense of dignity and nobility.
Chu Wuji thought secretly:
"You can also buy one for Qingying. She likes to look sullen, so this kind of formal dress would suit her...
Ning Xianzhi's mother probably wouldn't mind, but if Xiao Yaoer saw this, she'd probably throw a tantrum again."
Chapter 300 Before Going to the Western Regions
After buying clothes and shopping, Chu Wuji found a restaurant room to try the local cuisine.
There was a wide variety of food on display, and Chu Wuji finally ordered the "Eight Bowls". The dish was called this, but in fact it was more like a signature set meal, serving the restaurant's eight best dishes at once.
The portion is not large, but the advantage is that there are many varieties, which is suitable for Chu Wuzhi and his group, who want to try everything.
"The food here is a bit over-flavored. You can't even taste the original flavor of the ingredients."
The Fox Goddess prefers light food. People who practice cultivation have a keen sense of smell, and often they choose a certain type of food just for its taste.
Bai Sujin nodded in agreement. They had a keen sense of smell. They had just eaten several dishes and found that they all smelled of spices. She couldn't help but laugh:
"Yes, a little bit. But if Xiaotu were here, she would probably eat very happily. All kinds of meat dishes and the few vegetarian dishes would have some minced meat added, and they were all fried very fragrantly."
Aunt Green Snake studied the recipe in confusion: "What is Ding Dong Chicken?"
"It's an imported dish, auntie, why don't you ask what Fuqi Feipian is?" Chu Wuji took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and pointed to a dish that he hadn't ordered.
This question did not stump her. Aunt Qing Snake looked at her boy with disdain:
"Just now, I saw the waiter serving someone else's food. He brought out this dish. It's full of cow organs, not human lungs."
But to be honest, when Qingshe first heard the waiter's drawn-out voice, shouting "Fuqi Feipian (Sliced Beef and Pork Belly) here!", he really thought it was a human meat restaurant, and wondered why it was so blatant...
"We've almost finished eating. Let's go out for a walk and visit those Taoist temples and mountains to see if there are any real immortal monks nearby."
After Chu Wuji paid the bill, several elders quickly transformed back into their demonic forms and got into his clothes.
Even the Fox Goddess didn't ride on his neck anymore. I guess she wanted to take a nap after dinner and sleep right after eating. She was really happy.
Chu Wuji didn't know much about the Taoist temples in Cansang Country, so he just headed there as soon as he knew the direction.
The few small hills in this country are basically occupied by the strongholds of these independent cultivators. The environment is good and from time to time you can see people going up there to burn incense and pray for blessings.
Chu Wuji did not rashly visit these Taoist temples. He just wandered around, climbed the mountains and took a leisurely stroll, and by the way, confirmed whether there were any immortal monks here.
"It seems that there are no more. There are only independent cultivators left here. I just saw someone practicing the hand seal of 'Guangcheng Jue' on a stone platform in the mountains. I thought there were cultivators from Kongtong Mountain here."
I remember that on the night when we were dealing with the golden-haired lion, the senior sister from Kongtong Mountain used the "Guangcheng Jue", and the effect was really amazing.
The Fox Goddess said, "It seems that quite a few immortal cultivators have been here. It's a bit similar to the Sanquanwei place."
"That's probably it. In this place isolated from the outside world, I've been living in seclusion for a while, and then going out to travel when I feel like it. I might forget that I have a Taoist temple here."
As Chu Wuzhi was talking, he stopped and saw a young girl practicing martial arts with a panda beside the stone stairs in front of him.
The panda must be a nearby creature. After watching the girl practice so many times, the panda learned all the moves and started teaching (showing off) the girl.
After a while, the girl gave up in frustration and tried to imitate the panda in eating bamboo. As a result, her teeth were hurt. She sat there with red eyes and looked depressed.
Chu Wuji found it funny, so he walked over to the fifteen-year-old girl and asked:
"Why are you chewing bamboo? It's incredibly hard. Some people even use it as a sheath for their swords. How can you possibly chew it?"
The girl dressed in training clothes raised her eyes and looked at Chu Wuzhi. She saw that he had an indescribable aura and no fierceness in his eyes. She thought he was a man who could talk.
She explained, "Master said, 70% diet and 30% exercise, poor in literature but rich in martial arts, and being rich means being rich in food. I think this bamboo may be hiding some secrets!"
What he said was not entirely wrong. People who practice martial arts attach great importance to food supplements and medicinal supplements, but this girl has not reached the stage of medicinal supplements yet, and has not trained herself to the level where she needs "supplementation".
Chu Wuji glanced at the panda sleeping soundly next to him, walked up and touched its big belly. The panda opened its eyes, glanced at him, and then continued to sleep peacefully.
The girl blinked curiously. Could it be that they knew each other?
Chu Wuji continued, "This guy is known as the 'Iron Eater'. How can we imitate him and chew bamboo? Eating spring bamboo shoots is fine. It's spring now, and the bamboo shoots are tender enough!"
Just as he said this, maybe his words came true, but the giant panda suddenly sat up and shuddered in pain.
It turned out that a bamboo shoot had just broken through the soil where it had just slept and pricked its butt. Fortunately, it did not hit the vital parts.
"Hahaha~" the girl giggled and was no longer sad.
Bamboo shoots are really thieves. I wonder if the word "shoot" is a homophone of the word "loss" (损).
Sometimes in the spring nights, you can hear strange noises coming from the bamboo forest outside. When you go out, you will most likely see bamboo shoots growing. If you are not so lucky, the bamboo shoots will sneak up on you while you are squatting down to take a poop.
Chu Wuji dug out the spring bamboo shoots with one hand and threw them to the panda to eat. Then he said to the little girl:
"Go and show me the boxing skills you just showed me."
The girl didn't really want to be ordered around by a stranger, but she had been planning to rest for a while before starting to practice again, so it wouldn't hurt to start earlier.
She turned and ran to the stone platform and practiced her previous boxing technique again. It looked quite smooth, but there was still something missing.
"Master said that after practicing a set of boxing, you will feel the energy and your fists will smoke. Just now, the panda's fists were smoking, but I didn't..."
When Chu Wuji saw that they were actually practicing Qi and blood here, he was really excited as if he had met a fellow villager.
In Lihuo Country, there are few serious martial artists, and all martial arts schools have declined and become mere theatrical performances.
I didn't expect to meet a wild martial artist in this place.
Chu Wuji didn't dare to say much when it came to giving advice on practicing spells, but he could still say a few words on giving advice on the circulation of qi and blood.
"Little girl, you're standing wrong. You can't straighten your lumbar spine. You should tuck your chest in and straighten your back, but don't hunch your back. Don't dig your buttocks. Sink down and let your tailbone face the ground."
The little girl was puzzled: "Everyone says that a straight back is a sign of good looks, and that a perky butt is beautiful!"
"Your back is straight, but there's too little space in your chest, and your internal organs are being compressed. How can your blood flow? As for your perky little butt, it's fake because it's made of bones. The real thing is the flesh!"
"Wu Ji, don't tell this kind of thing to the little girl..." Bai Sujin reminded softly, her tone subtle, recalling what happened last night, when the child grabbed a piece of peach and kissed it a few times.
Chu Wuji stopped changing the subject and replied seriously:
"Girl, you're deliberately sticking your butt out. The Qi and blood are blocked at your 'tail' and can't flow smoothly throughout your body. Forget about your fist Qi."
After receiving the instructions, the girl adjusted herself immediately and punched twice again. As expected, she felt the blood flowing. Although she couldn't breathe out, her fists felt hot and powerful.
The girl was very surprised. She quickly said thank you and went back to practicing boxing.
The giant panda next to him barked twice, seemingly for no reason, but he was talking to Chu Wuji:
"This girl is really stupid. When she meets someone who can easily guide her to improve, she should at least ask about his background and ask about becoming his disciple. Why did she start practicing boxing?"
Chu Wuji still agreed with the giant panda's words, but from his personal point of view, he was definitely happy to have some free time.
He couldn't give too much detailed advice, and his own unconventional methods couldn't be adapted to others.
"Brother Panda, I'd like to ask you about the monks here. Are there any immortals around here?"
The panda breaks bamboo like it's spicy noodles, and its teeth are very good:
"Generally speaking, immortals don't come here often. Maybe in a few decades, you can run into immortals and Taoist priests wandering around here."
Chu Wuji was a little curious and wanted to sit down and ask more questions, but when he thought about how prickly the bamboo forest would be, he decided to stand for a while.
"Why did you come here after sixty years? I think the spiritual energy here is quite abundant."
"I don't know about that. Maybe the gods have been pricked by bamboo shoots. I just sleep after eating, so am I not a god?"
