Chapter Twenty-Seven: Colored Candy Man
Chapter 27: The Colored Sugar Man
Although Lei Wuchen felt that the Yeling Gate was very strange, he had no choice but to cultivate to a complete waste now, and the inexplicable heat in his body would flow all over his body from time to time, and the heat was unbearable, and he couldn't enter the Yeling Gate to find out what was going on alone, so he had to give up.
"Don't you want to bring colorful little candy people to Qing'er, they are sold on that street, and the money from selling herbs just now is enough to buy them", Ding Xiao turned his head to look at Lei Wuchen and said.
"No, no, you can keep the money from selling herbs for yourself, I have it with me", Lei Wuchen waved his hand.
"If you hadn't come to your rescue last night, maybe I would have died under the siege of the Night Monkey Beast, so I should have thanked you."
Lei Wuchen couldn't resist Ding Xiao, so he had to give up, and followed Ding Xiao through a small alley and came to a small street, compared to the prosperity on the avenue, this small street is also full of people.
"Are there usually so many people in your town?", Lei Wuchen asked in surprise as he squeezed through the crowd in front of him.
"Usually when I come to sell herbs, there are not a few people, but today is a rally, so there are a lot more people, and it is rare to see people selling colored small candy, because many people can't afford it," Ding Xiao said helplessly.
"Colored candy men aren't too expensive, are they?"
"Most of us here make a living by picking herbs from the mountains, so the income is very small, and it is all eaten by cultivators, dignitaries and dignitaries, and it is enough for us to see."
After passing through the dense crowd, I finally came to the stall selling small sugar people, and saw an old man in coarse rags, taking out the sugar juice from a bowl, the sugar juice was not thin or thick, his fingers danced up and down on it, and in the blink of an eye, he pinched out a villain with different expressions.
However, unlike the production method that Lei Wuchen saw in Jiuzhou City, the sugar man there is to pour the sugar juice directly into the various molds that have been made, although there are many molds, but there are not as many types as this one.
"Uncle, do you still have this colored candy man?", Ding Xiao asked politely.
The old man glanced at Ding Xiao in front of him, shook his head, and said, "The colored candy man is gone today." If you want to eat it, let's wait for the next time."
"The little colored candy man is gone today, what should I do?"
"It's okay, it's okay for ordinary sugar people, Qing'er doesn't seem to be too picky about this, it's okay to be a sugar man, let's go back and lie to her", Lei Wuchen smiled slightly and said helplessly.
Lei Wuchen chose a few villains with different shapes, asked the old man to wrap them, asked for two more separately, handed them to Ding Xiao, and after everything was ready, the two turned around and walked out of the town.
Ding Xiao took the candy man in his hand, and was about to wrap it up, but was stopped by Lei Wuchen and said: "Don't worry, buy enough, Qing'er can't eat so much alone."
Hearing this, Ding Xiaocai picked up the candy man in his hand, put it to his mouth and licked it, the sweet feeling was much sweeter than eating fragrant fruits in the mountains.
"Your wound doesn't matter now, right?" asked Ding Xiao.
"It's no big deal, the herbs you boiled are really effective, the wound was still very painful, and after applying the herbs, it is much better now"
"These herbs are indeed very effective against the scratches of the night monkey beasts, but how can you spend the night in the Monkey Forest Mountain?", Ding Xiao asked suspiciously.
"At that time, in order to hurry, I didn't find anyone for a while, so I planned to spend the night in the mountains, and then I heard the sound of fighting, and then I met you"
"The one who took you, his cultivation is too high, a group of night monkey beasts are in front of him, and they are all defeated in the blink of an eye, and I don't know when I will reach the same level as him", Ding Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
"Your current cultivation is also quite strong, if someone points you out again, I believe you will have a great breakthrough, but in the current situation, you will not be able to get out of this mountain", Lei Wuchen said with a little regret.
"The Night Monkey Beast is not completely wiped out, I will not leave home, he is your senior brother, so you will join a sect, right?"
"It's just a small sect, and after the death of the master, the sect was disbanded, so Qing'er and I followed the senior brother and traveled around", Lei Wuchen said casually, he didn't want Ding Xiao to know what their real purpose was, because they were followed by some people who didn't know their origins.
"Then your master must have been very powerful during his lifetime, and he can teach such a strong apprentice as your senior brother."
"Master, his old man is indeed very powerful, if the matter of the Night Monkey Beast is solved in the future, have you considered going to the sect to cultivate?", Lei Wuchen asked.
"If the problem of the night monkey beast is solved, I have plans to go out, but I don't want to leave my mother here alone, and it will cost a lot of money to join the sect", Ding Xiao shook his head and denied.
"If all these problems are solved, where would you most like to go?"
"Jiuzhou City, because it is the most prosperous city in the Heavenly Region, and the Lei family is also the largest sect", Ding Xiao's eyes were full of longing, and he turned to whisper: "This is just my imagination, your senior brother is very strong, those night monkey beasts are not opponents, but the problems of so many Chinese New Year's Eve monkey beasts have not been solved, and it is impossible that because of your senior brother, these problems will be solved in a short time"
"Then in addition to killing the night monkey beast to avenge your father, have you thought of any other way to deal with the night monkey beast?"
"No, every year in the village, there are babies killed by night monkey beasts, the best way is to kill them all, so that the people in the village will be safe", Ding Xiao clenched his fists, his eyes full of murderous energy.
Lei Wuchen looked at Ding Xiao's expression, and he didn't want to say anything more, but he always felt very strange about this matter, so he asked, "Before your father was killed, did you have any night monkey beasts hurting people?"
"I haven't heard my mother say this."
After listening to Ding Xiao's answer, Lei Wuchen frowned, this matter doesn't seem to be as simple as it seems, if there were no hurting incidents before that, why did night monkey beasts frequently occur after that.
Lei Wuchen lowered his head and thought about it, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked: "At that time, among your father's group, your uncle was the only one left to survive, don't you think it's strange?"
"At that time, my uncle ran from the mountain covered in blood to the stockade, and told the people in the stockade that the night monkey beast killed people, and the people in the village also went to look for it, but in addition to finding traces of the fight and a large bloodstain there, he did not find my father's body, and the people in the village will be suspicious, and not long after that incident, my uncle's child was lost, and then the bones were found in the nest of the night monkey beast, and since then, the people in the village have hunted and killed the night monkey beast until now"
"You also believe that this was done by the Night Monkey Beast?"
"Yes!"
Hearing Ding Xiao's answer, Lei Wuchen seemed to have a little frown in his mind, he looked down at the red light that flashed in his hand from time to time, like a flame sliding in his body, burning his body, and now the toxicity in his body is becoming more and more frequent, and the road to Qingyun Mountain is still very long, and he can't delay too long here, but if he doesn't solve Ding Xiao's matter, how can he leave early.
There is also the night spirit gate in the town, the hierarchy is not much different from the big sect, it doesn't look like a small sect at all, why did it appear here for no reason, is all this related to the night monkey beast?
