The two of them walked around again, speaking of the Forbidden Mountain, it is not big, it is not small, and the two standard road idiots really haven't found the Jiang family's station.

"Qiaoqiao, let's come out for a while, I'm really hungry, let's go to that town to have a look, maybe we can meet the Jiang family in the town, or find out some news about the Jiang family."

Chu Qiao thought about it, and there was also this possibility, so he nodded, "That town is not big, let's go and go back, it is estimated that Yun Mo should have returned, we can't stay outside for too long, so as not to worry the family." ”

"Good!" Jiu Cake immediately agreed, "Let's go quickly." ”

As for the direction of the town, Jiu Cake had already figured it out, and the two of them followed the mountain road and soon came to the town.

This town is indeed as rumored to be, antique, all the Ming and Qing Dynasty buildings, walking into this town, it gives people a feeling of time and space travel.

"Wow! I didn't expect this town to be so distinctive, why didn't we come to play before? Jiu Cake said regretfully, looking up at the gatehouse at the entrance of the town, on which you can vaguely see the stone plaque carved - Xiao Fengdu.

"Xiaofengdu ......" Chu Qiao thought of the name, "The name of this town is really special!" ”

"Fengdu...... Isn't it a ghost town? Jiu Bao suddenly said, "This place is called Xiaofengdu, it won't be a ghost town, right?" ”

"Hehe......" Chu Qiao laughed twice, "The ghost town is not here, maybe the name is just a coincidence." ”

"It's also ha, you see that there are so many people in it, even if it's really a ghost town, those ghosts should be scared away!" Jiu Cake smiled and pointed to the town, facing the small street of the gatehouse, which was really full of people!

It's almost evening, and both sides of the street are crowded with vendors with small stalls, although it is an ancient town, but these small vendors have also changed their guns, and the shouting lines are not shouted from the mouth, but a small megaphone is repeating constantly, which is quite a bit of a bazaar.

As he spoke, the two walked in from the gatehouse.

At the moment when he stepped into the gatehouse, Chu Qiao suddenly felt a chill, like coming home from outside in the summer and stepping into an air-conditioned room. Of course, the coolness Chu Qiao felt at the moment was not so obvious, she stopped, let go of her spiritual sense and felt it again, but she didn't find anything.

Is it a delusion?

"Jojo, what's wrong?" Seeing Chu Qiao's expression, Jiu Cake stopped and asked suspiciously.

"Uh...... Have you ever felt a chill? Chu Qiao asked tentatively.

Jiu Pan shook his head, "You can't be psychological, right?" Scared when you hear the name of this town? ”

"Cut! Will I be afraid of ghosts? I'm scared of me! Chu Qiao rolled his eyes, "You really can't count on you!" ”

The two shuttled through the crowd, Jiu Bi excitedly ran between those small stalls, as a "city child", Jiu Biscuit is very familiar with the streets and alleys of Yanjing, but it is the first time to come into contact with such a rural atmosphere, all kinds of surprises!

"Sugar Man! Jojo! Come on! Jiu Bi greeted Chu Qiao happily, he was guarding in front of a small stall selling candy man, and there were a few little hairy heads guarding next to the stall with him.

"Hey...... Nine Cakes, how old are you? The little pot friends will laugh at you? Chu Qiao helplessly pointed to the few little hairy heads next to him who stared at the boss looking at them, "Let's go!" ”

Jiu Bi refused to leave, pointing to a simple roulette wheel with a bamboo block as a pointer next to him, "I want to spin!" ”

Chu Qiao also ate such a sugar man when he was a child, but even more than ten years ago, there were very few veteran craftsmen selling candy in Yanjing, seeing this simple roulette, Chu Qiao's heart was also slightly moved, and nodded, "Okay, you can turn one." ”

On the side of the roulette wheel are many small animals, in addition to the 12 zodiac signs, there are also dragons and phoenixes. If you can turn to the dragon and phoenix, it is very lucky, because it is laborious and laborious to sketch the dragon and phoenix on the board with syrup. However, the grid belonging to the dragon and phoenix is very small, and it is difficult to turn to it!

The center of the roulette wheel said three yuan a turn, Jiu Bi rubbed his hands excitedly, and sighed on his hands, looking at his shape, he wanted to give good luck to his hands.

"I'm coming!" Jiu Bi stretched out his hand to flick the bamboo block, and the bamboo block like a pointer turned drippingly, and the children who watched the excitement around helped Jiu Bi cheer together, shouting in their mouths, "Dragon!" Dragon! Dragon! ”

Chu Qiao couldn't help but be a little nervous, watching the speed of the bamboo slowly decrease, and the sharp end seemed to be about to move towards the grid with the dragon drawn, and even the old man who poured the syrup couldn't help but glance over to this side.

"Oops! My dragon! Seeing that the bamboo block was about to stop on the lattice of the dragon, Jiu Bi was so happy that he almost jumped up, but the pointer was crooked, and it fell on the monkey next to him.

The old man grinned, "Monkey! Then the hand flew up, the monkey was the best to get, scooped the little spoon with syrup and scratched twice on the marble slab, and the monkey's head and body came out, and then poured out a long tail, and a pair of small eyes were done!

Jiu Bi was not convinced, took the old man's little monkey and handed it to a drooling little guy next to him, and said arrogantly, "I still want to turn!" ”

The old man smiled and narrowed his eyes, he liked this kind of guest the most! If you are not convinced, you don't know how many you have to turn!

So, the nine cakes kept turning, the old man kept drawing the sugar man, and the little gluttonous cats next to him kept cheering, and everyone got a sugar man, except for the nine cakes with a look of chagrin, everyone smiled.

Chu Qiao didn't stop the nine cakes, just crossed his arms and watched the excitement beside him, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at the childlike habit of the nine cakes, Chu Qiao felt that this was the nine cakes that he had grown up with since he was a child, a nine cakes that were always carefree.

"Alright...... If you don't turn it, it looks like I won't be able to turn the dragon today! Jiu Cake spread his hands in frustration, "Hey! The dragon's lattice is so small, how did it turn around! ”

"Let's go!" Chu Qiao shook his head helplessly, "Let's go eat!" ”

The two were just about to leave, when the old man who sold the candy suddenly said, "Wait, boy, girl, wait!" ”

Jiu Cake and Chu Qiao turned their heads to look at the old man in confusion, "Uncle, what's the matter?" ”

The old man smiled and said, "You take care of my business so much today, I'll make you a dragon and phoenix Chengxiang!" ”

As he spoke, without waiting for Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake to agree, he began to sketch the most complex patterns on the marble slab.

The dragon and the phoenix are indeed the most test of craftsmanship, the old man scooped a spoonful full of syrup, not as before, did not want to start pouring sugar man, but pondered for a while, then brushed two strokes, outlined the body of the dragon and the phoenix, the left dragon and the right phoenix, the dragon's scale armor, the phoenix's feathers, in the old man's hands slowly plump, the people around, whether it was a child or an adult, couldn't help but come up, curiously looking at the old man's craft.

In the end, the old man used two bamboo sticks to glue the dragon and the phoenix, raised his hands and handed them to Chu Qiao and the nine cakes, "Look, this is the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang, when you eat, start eating from both sides, eat to the middle, and live with Hemeimei for the rest of your life, and don't quarrel." ”

Chu Qiao's face suddenly turned red, and only then did he react, the old man seemed to have misunderstood.

Turning his head to look at the nine cakes again, this thing didn't seem to notice the old man's words at all, a pair of glass-like eyes stared at the boss, looking at the dragon and phoenix in his hand in surprise, the face that was so beautiful that the girls were jealous was full of admiration, and there was no other emotion at all. "Uncle, your craftsmanship is so good! Thanks! ”

It seems that I am thinking too much!

Chu Qiao also immediately got rid of the embarrassment just now, Ren Jiu Cake is still a child, and he doesn't know anything.

"Thank you!"

Chu Qiao also thanked him, and the two of them held this huge dragon and phoenix and walked away in the eyes of everyone.

After a long time, the old man who poured the syrup whispered, "Hey, it's a pity, after all, there is no fate." ”

The nine cakes in the distance were still pointing to the dragon and phoenix in his hand, "You eat over there, you eat!" It's delicious! Ay...... It's a waste not to eat it! Then I'll eat it alone! Hey, eat some......"

The two of them finally walked into the restaurant opened by the descendants of the legendary imperial chef of the former dynasty, and the nine cakes were still carefully sipping the sugar in their hands, like a child, and their handsome cheeks were stained with a lot of orange-red syrup.

"Boss, bring all your specialties, delicious food, and one copy!" Nine cakes are ordered quickly, this is the ordering style of people's nine cakes.

"Well, we have dozens of specialties here." The waiter, who was dressed very plainly, looked at Jiu Bi in embarrassment, this boy is very good-looking, but it seems that there is something wrong with his brain, "There are only two of you!" ”

"We've got it!" Jiu Bi hurriedly said, turned his head to Chu Qiao and smiled flatteringly, "Let's try it first, and pack the delicious ones back for Dad and them to eat, you have money on you, right?" Rich, huh? ”

Chu Qiao couldn't cry or laugh, "I can afford to pay for the meal." ”

"Ulla! Banzai! Jiu Bi cheered, "Serve quickly, serve quickly, let's have cold dishes first!" ”

Chu Qiao felt sticky on his hands, and he was very uncomfortable because he had just pinched the sugar stick, "By the way, where is your bathroom?" ”

The waiter pointed to Chu Qiao, and Chu Qiao went to wash his hands.

After Chu Qiao left, the action of the nine cakes licking the candy man suddenly stopped, and he carefully raised the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang in his hand to him, and looked at it carefully, "It's so beautiful...... Dragon and phoenix are auspicious...... I am a dragon, Qiaoqiao is a phoenix, and we will not quarrel with He Meimei for the rest of our lives. ”

After speaking, his glass-like eyes dimmed, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "How is it possible?" As he spoke, he brought the phoenix to his mouth and licked it, "The sugar is so sweet." But when you eat it, how does it become bitter? ”

"Haven't you finished yet?" Chu Qiao had already returned, and he couldn't help but laugh when he saw Jiu Bi engrossed in licking the candy in his hand, "You, just like when you were a child, you like to eat sugar and meat, why haven't you gained weight?" ”

"Cut!" Jiu Cake rolled his eyes, "How can a handsome and charming man like my brother grow fat?" The Girl Killer Ariki? ”

"Come on!" Chu Qiao sat down, "I shouldn't praise you!" ”

As he spoke, Jiu Bi handed the sugar in his hand to Chu Qiao's mouth again, and read coquettishly, "Taste it, taste it!" ”

Chu Qiao couldn't help it, so he had to stick out his tongue and lick it, nodded and said, "Well, that's the taste, I liked to eat it when I was a child, and the uncle's craftsmanship is really good!" ”

"Hey, that's not it!" As he spoke, Jiu Bi took the place that Chu Qiao had licked into his mouth and licked it vigorously......

"Nine cakes, are you okay?" Chu Qiao was stunned for a while, staring at the nine cakes with wide eyes, and the nine cakes snorted twice, "I don't know who it is, from childhood to adulthood, everything that can't be eaten is thrown into other people's bowls, and he also ordered people to finish eating, and everyone has become accustomed to eating...... When I see you eating leftovers, I will habitually take them and eat them......"

"Uh......" seems to be exactly like this...... Chu Qiao had a rare conscience, and reached out and touched the head of the nine cakes, "Oh, isn't that what happened when I was a child?" Look, I won't give you anything I can't eat now! ”

"Give it to Yun Mo?" Jiu Bi raised his head suddenly, propped up his two ears, and glared at Chu Qiao, like a child who had been robbed of a toy.

"It's not ......," Chu Qiao sneered, "I'll feed the cat next door." ”

"Chu Qiao!" Jiu Cake can't wait to crash into Chu Qiao's arms, dare to feed himself as a cat when he was a child?!

"Alright, alright, just kidding!" Chu Qiao hurriedly begged for mercy, at this time, the cold dishes also came up, and the nine cakes habitually stretched out their hands towards the plate, and Chu Qiao's chopsticks fell after him, "Smack!" hit the back of the hand of the nine breads, "I said that you are not allowed to eat it with your hands!" ”

Jiu Bi retracted his hand and went to get the chopsticks, and a shrill female voice came - "Yo, handsome guy, your girlfriend is really fierce!" ”

Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake subconsciously raised their heads and looked in the direction of the sound, and on the table not far away, there were several young men and women sitting, talking to a woman in a dress, the woman had high cheekbones and single eyelids, and when she looked at her face, she was a snarky person, looking at Jiu Cake with a hint of banter.

Jiu Bi was furious, "It's your business!" ”

"Nine cakes, pay attention to quality." Although Chu Qiao also thinks that what the nine cakes said is very reasonable, but Miss Chu Qiao has the important responsibility of teaching the nine cakes, and at this time, it is still necessary to focus on education!

Jiu Cake nodded, "Yes, let's eat." ”

The woman was choked by the nine cakes, she was obviously a little annoyed and angry, and her cheekbones also flushed, "You kid, I really don't know what to do, sister, I'm giving you a hug!" Such a fierce girlfriend, I can't get used to her! ”

As soon as Jiu Cake's wrist moved, there was only one chopstick left in his hand, and the other one was inserted straight on the table in front of the woman, and half of the chopsticks were submerged in the table.

Just like that, all the men and women stood up and looked at Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake, and the woman screamed, "Is this a provocation?!" ”

In fact, almost all of the people sitting here are from the Xuanmen who came from all over China, and the locals have already gone home at this point.

"Disturb the master to eat, the master is not happy! And next time, the chopsticks won't be on the table! An evil aura burst out of Jiu Cake's eyes, and he smiled evilly, "Maybe it'll be inserted in your mouth!" ”

"What an arrogant boy! Look at my sister and don't give you some color, you don't know how many eyes Lord Yama has! The woman with high cheekbones was obviously completely enraged by the nine cakes, and was about to rush over, the man next to her grabbed her and muttered a few words in her ear, the woman gritted her teeth, forced her breath, and said to the people beside her, "Let's go first!" ”

With that, the group left in a huff.

The nine cakes don't matter, they should eat and drink as usual.

"You, you're really going to get into trouble! If I let my dad know, he won't let us come out again! Chu Qiao tapped the forehead of the nine cakes with his fingers.

Jiu Cake smiled, "It's them who want to fix the whole thing, are we still afraid of things?" Anyway, sooner or later, you have to meet it on the Xuanmen Competition, try your hand in advance, it is also called knowing yourself and knowing your opponent and winning a hundred battles! ”

"Phew! Will you still use the art of war? That's a lot of nine cakes! Chu Qiao quipped.

"Cut, I learned it on TV! Don't treat my brother as illiterate, my brother graduated from TV University with a bachelor's degree! "Nine loaves said proudly.

“…… Nima also graduated from TV University with a bachelor's degree...... You're a big fan of the anime channel, right?! Chu Qiao shook his head helplessly.

The dishes came up one after another, but most of the nine cakes didn't eat much, and they were directly called packing, and it seems that the appetite is not good today.

Just as the two of them were about to leave with large and small bags of lunch boxes, an old man in a dark robe next to him suddenly stood up and walked slowly to Chu Qiao and Jiu Cake, "Be careful on the way back." ”

Chu Qiao naturally knew that the old man was kind, nodded and smiled, "This is natural, thank you uncle." ”

The old man shook his head, his mouth didn't move, but a voice came into Chu Qiao's ears - "What you offended just now was the people of the Jiang family in Jiangnan, and the Jiang family has a good formation, so I am afraid that it will not be able to prevent it!" ”

Chu Qiao's expression changed, he didn't expect that the group of people just now turned out to be from the Jiang family! It's really hard to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to get them!

This time, Chu Qiao solemnly nodded slightly towards the old man, this old man used a very special method to force the voice into her ears, obviously he didn't want to offend the Jiang family by exposing his identity in public, Chu Qiao naturally understood the difficulties of others, and it was a favor for the old man to be able to remind him like this.

The two of them returned along the road, and when Jiu Cake heard that the group of people just now was from the Jiang family, he was immediately excited, and he was ready to show his skills, and they had just walked out of the town not far away, when Chu Qiao suddenly stopped.

"Jojo, what's wrong?" Jiu Cake also stopped, Chu Qiao stood still, his eyes began to scan around, "It's really a little wrong!" ”

The nine cakes restrained their playful looks, at this moment the twilight was four, the sky was not completely dark, it was the moment of the day when yin and yang intersected.

I usually think that the middle of the night is the heaviest time for yin energy, but in fact, every day, when it is about to get dark, it is the time when yin is the heaviest! At this time, the Yin Gate opens, and the Qi of the Yin and Yang Realms briefly converge, and it is also the time when the ghosts are most active! There are even powerful spirits that can break through the shackles of yin and yang at this time and come from the netherworld to the yang realm.

This truth is more like the original tengu eclipse day.

The road seemed to be empty of people all at once, and there were dark black groves on both sides of the road, and a cold wind blew and made people shiver.
