On the seventh day of the fifth lunar month, the day after the Dragon Boat Festival, the streets of Yuncheng at dusk are very deserted, most of the shops are closed, and a few inns are still scattered and half-open. There are no pedestrians on the street, only the lily of the valley flowers bloom alone in front of the gate, welcoming visitors from afar for Yuncheng, and the smell of wormwood and realgar is wantonly intertwined after the festival, bitter and pungent.

Shopkeeper Wang looked at the woman in front of him who was looking at the street and cleared his throat impatiently: "Girl, I'm about to close." ”

The woman was dressed in a strong suit, her fiery red clothes were as dazzling as blood in the remnant sun, her ink-colored hair was curled into a high ponytail, a mahogany hairpin ran through it, and a small pearl was attached to the tail, which swayed slightly with the owner's movements. The red lips are lightly opened, the eyebrows and eyes are smiling, ignoring the black cloth bag on the back of the back, she is a standard beauty.

The beauty was summoned back to her senses by the shopkeeper's voice, and took out a small piece of silver from her purse and put it on the table: "The shopkeeper, an upper room, all good dishes will come up." ”

"Okay, Tianzi room, don't come and take the distinguished guest upstairs." The shopkeeper Wang quickly accepted the silver on the one hand, and spat on the other hand at the sleepy shopkeeper who was standing in the corner: "Get up and work, you know that you are lazy, be careful that I break your legs." ”

The woman waved her hand, stood in front of the peach wood carved counter and refused to leave, playing with the door key and asked casually: "Shopkeeper, this is just after the Dragon Boat Festival, why is there a closed door in this city, and there are few people on the street?" It's fifteen soon, don't the people of Yuncheng believe in gods and don't go to the temple to incense? ”

The shopkeeper changed slightly, quickly turned to the door and folded his hands, and then looked at the woman and lowered her voice, and said in a frightened and reverent voice: "Girl, don't say this disrespectful thing again." The god of our Cloud City is the best god in this world, and it is precisely because of him that the people of Cloud City can live and work in peace and contentment. ”

Seeing that the woman was even more puzzled, the shopkeeper Wang continued: "Many years ago, on the seventh day of the fifth month, the heavenly punishment suddenly descended on Cloud City, and the land lord kept the peace of Cloud City with his own strength. This is an immeasurable merit. ”

The woman nodded suddenly, and suddenly realized: "I see, this land lord is really respectful." Shopkeeper, do you know if there is a sea of white flowers near this cloud city? ”

Shopkeeper Wang turned around and took out a map and carefully spread it on the table, pointed to one of them and said, "Ten miles south of this cloud city, there is indeed a sea of white flowers. It's the peak season for flowers, and tomorrow happens to be the market, so girls can go shopping. ”

Thinking that the shopkeeper was going to give her the map, the woman subconsciously went to get it, but the shopkeeper moved faster, and said to the woman with a smile after quickly putting it away: "It's not too early, the girl will go to the room to rest first, and the meal will be delivered later." ”

The woman withdrew her hand and nodded calmly: "Thank you for the reminder." Then he turned and walked to the room, as if he were followed by a group of predatory beasts.

The woman's name is Sanssouci Muyi, and she is the successor of Meng Po, the lord of Huangquan City. Born in Huangquan City since he was a child, he has been working in the underworld for hundreds of years, and he has practiced all his skills, but he has never been allowed to step out of the underworld.

Although the scenery of the Lechuan River is beautiful, and the major hells of the underworld are also a good place to listen to stories, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, no matter how interesting the story is, Mu Yi's eyes are very tired and his ears are calloused.

Seeing that it was about to be her time to take office, it was finally this day to leave the underworld openly, and Mu Yipan had already seen through the autumn water on this day.

Before leaving, Xian Qiong told her that Bai Qi, the land of the Tianshan Mountains in the world, had recently written a letter to him, asking him for a favor. The land clan has been friends with the Difu for generations, and although he has not had time recently, it is not easy to refute Bai Qi's face. Let Mu Yi go to the Tianshan Mountains to meet Bai Qi on his behalf when he goes to the world, and help if he can. In the end, he reminded him very vaguely that the underworld owes him a favor more or less, and it would be great if he could repay this favor this time.

The corners of Mu Yi's mouth twitched uncontrollably when he heard this flawed lie, he didn't have time, he was busy chasing women every day, so it was strange that he had time.

Cloud City in the dead of night is very quiet, except for the sound of the husband from time to time, it is as quiet as a dead city. Mu Yi sat at the table thinking about how to meet this Bai Qi tomorrow, time passed little by little, and he didn't come up with a countermeasure, but he climbed up his eyelids unscrupulously, and sat there dozing off like a chicken pecking rice.

Bang dang

The overwhelmed neck finally used up its last bit of strength, and put its head on the table, which could no longer be supported, and pulled the master out of his sleep in a last resort to face reality.

"Hey, what the hell is this doing, it hurts." Mu Yi rubbed her sore neck and forehead, which may have turned red, muttered how she had fallen asleep again, and when she looked up, she saw something growing out of thin air on the table that she didn't know what it had just given her like a hammer.

A letter that looks ordinary on the outside, the white letter paper is mixed with a faint scent of flowers, and a vague idea floats through my mind, but I can't remember what it smells like for a while.

The very regular Xiaokai lay there quietly: Miss Muyi, take the liberty to disturb, tomorrow, the gazebo on the east side of the sea of flowers is waiting. Baiqi characters.

The letter came while she was dozing off, and appeared silently in her room.

Mu Yi picked the corners of his mouth a little excitedly, Xian Qiong's news spread very well, I just arrived in Cloud City, and people know where I live.

I can't wait to see me, it seems that there is something very important. Thinking of this, I rubbed my hands excitedly and prepared to do a big job, whether I could get rich overnight and become a female tyrant calling for wind and rain, and start a rich human life from now on, success or failure is in one fell swoop.

When the sky was just dawning, the stars that had been hanging in the sky all night gradually disappeared into the clouds, and the glow that had been trapped all night desperately wanted to break through the shackles of the clouds, and carried out a routine desperate struggle with the night on duty, and the earth became particularly mysterious in the alternation of day and night.

The early bird opened its eyes in a daze, ready to get up to find insects to eat, and the crow that flew from nowhere was crying desolate outside the window,—— dumb - dumb - -

Mu Yi was forcibly pulled out of his sleep by this hoarse cry, opened a slit and shook his hand in front of his eyes, foggy, and the sky was not yet dawn. I turned over and tried to sleep again, but the crow outside the window went crazy and kept crowing.

Little crow, you're dead, you're dead.

Mu Yi got up from the bed with difficulty, walked to the window full of anger, and pushed the window open.

But he found nothing, except a stunted tree, the sky and the earth that were about to wake up, and there were no crows.

Mu Yi tapped her head with some doubts, wondering if there was a time difference between the underworld and the human world, which caused her to be delirious and began to have auditory hallucinations.

Close the window and walk inside, through the damp night breeze blowing outside, no matter how strong the sleepiness is, it is driven away.
