When the three of them stepped into the ancient city, they had already discovered that something was wrong with the ancient city.

Although the sun has sunk in the west, the lights in the ancient city are still bright. It's not like other places, it seems that the entertainment industry is particularly developed, whether it's a wine shop, a theater or a green house, it seems to be overcrowded. People on the street rubbed shoulders with each other, although it was already dark, but the set still did not remove, on the contrary, the crowd gathered, so it was not lively.

And the most important thing is that this ancient city has no name.

Jiu Ban and Wei Xicheng also stopped pedestrians on the street to ask for the name of the ancient city, but no matter who asked, the answer they gave was "The name of the ancient city is 'ancient city', and it has been like this for thousands of years, so why bother?" This kind of answer naturally couldn't relieve the doubts in the hearts of Jiu Ban and the others, but in fact, the night was already deep, and they didn't dare to continue going down the mountain even if they wanted to continue on their way. Besides, there seemed to be not many inns in the ancient city, so why should they go to the distance to find other accommodations? The most important thing in the journey was rest, which was one of the reasons why Wei Xicheng was reluctant to continue walking.

The strangest things about the ancient city don't stop there. If the most developed industry in this nameless ancient city is the entertainment industry, then the most developed industry in the entertainment industry is juggling. There are juggling teams on almost every street in the city, among which there are many monkeys, dogs, and cats, but the most are "weirdos".

Where the "weirdos" came from, no one knows. But in fact, there is almost an invisible rule in the ancient city: there are many streets, and there are more or less juggling teams on each street, but there is only one juggling team with "weirdos" on each street. No more, no less, only one on each street. Most of the "weirdos" are surprisingly short, or have three eyes, which is almost standard for juggling teams. And if the weirdo had an extra leg or an extra hand, there would be more onlookers, and the juggling team leaders would be able to make more money.

Eight Feathers were very curious about these strange people, but Nine Half and Wei Xicheng were not very interested. Wei Xicheng and Jiuhan now just want to find a good inn to open two upper rooms and sleep well, anyway, the king of Pu Lao gave them a lot of money, and they are not afraid of spending money along the way. The thoughts of the two kanji are not quite the same, the former wants to rest quickly and prepare to continue on the road the next day, while the latter is simply tired.

After coming out of an inn, Wei Xicheng hurriedly took the two of them to the next inn to have a look, the reason was that Wei Xicheng was a little dissatisfied with the accommodation environment of the inn. Follow Wei Xicheng's footsteps forward, because his tired eyes and spirit are a little sluggish. But his sluggish energy didn't last long, and he soon came back to his senses because of the pull of the eight feathers.

At this moment, the ninth half would have been very sleepy. He just wanted to wait for Wei Xi to go to bed and sleep in the spring and autumn after picking a place to live, and the bed was his god and his immortal Buddha at this moment. But at this time, just when he hadn't seen his immortal Buddha, he was pulled back to reality by Bayu, which made him a little angry.

Eight Yu said: "Nine-and-a-half, look, look." As she spoke, she tugged at his sleeve, back and forth, like a child shaking an adult's arm. She's really a head shorter than him, and this height difference is actually quite cute.

Jiu Ban said: "What to see, what to see, what to see? If you have big breasts and big butts, I may still be a little interested in looking, forget about the rest, there are too many people to watch." He began to glammy a little, but his eyes were a little disappointed, and he didn't know where to go.

Eight Feathers said: "What do you say, every doorkeeper on your mouth? I'll let you see there, that juggling weirdo!" Hearing his words, she twisted the soft flesh on her waist fiercely, and then pointed her finger at the place where she wanted him to see, but there was a little devil in her heart who thought viciously, what happened to the old lady's figure, is it really that bad? Just thinking about it, he secretly touched his waist and buttocks, and then took his hand back.

Jiu Ban turned his head, saw the strange man, and said, "Isn't it just an extra ..... on your shoulders Head??? he has two heads? That's amazing. He saw the strange man she wanted him to see, and was startled and then frightened, and almost jumped up. It's really hard to find a man with three legs and two heads, and it's not easy to find a man or a woman. So he turned his gaze and stared at the strange man closely. At this time, he and her footsteps slowed down unconsciously, and Wei Xicheng, who was anxious to find an inn, had already walked away alone.

Seeing the reflection of the ninth half, Bayu was a little anxious. She slapped him on the back of the head and almost knocked him forward, and then said anxiously, "Did I show you his two heads and four arms?

Not far in front of Jiuhan and Bayu, a group of spectators were applauding. In the middle of the circle of spectators is a troupe, and the difference of this troupe is that the strange man who plays is very strange, it is a strange man with two heads, limbs and arms, but the legs are still two. For such a strange person, even the troupe owner can't characterize him as one person or two people, he can only call him "five or six". In the cheers of many spectators and the crisp sound of coins being tossed, the whip of the troupe owner fell on the body of the five or six one by one, and everyone applauded one after another.

"Isn't that a weirdo who has been teased, what's there to worry about, you see that you are scared like that," Jiuhan said to Bayu, his tone was very relaxed, but his eyes kept falling on the five or six who were being played, as if he still had the idea of applauding him. Hachiyu was almost so angry when she saw that Jiuhan looked like this, but there seemed to be no other solution besides jumping feet, so she jumped up and slapped him on the back of the head, and then said, "Don't you see that strange man is being bullied?

What made Bayu a little stunned was that Jiu Banzhen immediately stepped forward and grabbed the whip waved by the troupe master, and then was very calm and calm, and said to the class master word by word: "You, why are you bullying him?"

When the words fell, everyone was stunned.

That weirdo named Five or Six is being bullied, how can Nine and a Half not see it? Many things, the result of which was known from the beginning. Some people are attracted to each other, as if the first time he saw five or six, he felt that this strange person was unusual. Although the strange man in the nameless ancient city seemed to be in the lowest food chain system, the strange man named Five or Six in front of him seemed to be very different.

What's the difference? Jiu and a half looked at it quietly for a while, and finally understood.

In the eyes.

Five or six's eyes are independent, calm, and different. It is not a pair of eyes that choose to be submissive, on the contrary, it is full of unwillingness and firmness, and even ordinary people cannot tolerate the "backbone". It was a pair of eyes that were too firm, like the proud plum blossoms in winter and the grass in the summer rainstorm, never bending their waists. Nine and a half stared at these eyes for a while, and finally made sure that there was nothing wrong with his judgment before he stepped forward and firmly controlled the swinging whip and said something like that.

There was silence all around, or maybe it was awkward. And in the midst of such embarrassment, Jiu Ban heard a faint word in his ear: "Thank you." ”

Well, this time, it didn't come out in vain.

Nine and a half stared at the troupe master, and the class master also stared at nine and a half, while Eight Feathers stared at the two of them, as overwhelmed as all the onlookers. Five or Six staggered to his feet, and when the troupe leader saw it, his hand tightened, and he wanted to pull back the whip and continue to whip him, but he was firmly held in his hand by Jiu Ban again, and he didn't move.

"What do you want to do?"

"Stop you from hitting him. ”

"Why do you stop me? He is mine, and you don't care what I like!"

"Then he's not anymore. As he spoke, Jiuhan suddenly took out a large handful of silver coins from somewhere and sprinkled them on the ground with a clatter. "Is this enough for him to become mine?"

The silver coin fell to the ground with a clatter, and there was still silence all around. A thought suddenly appeared in everyone's heads at the same time: Is this person stupid because of money?

No one knew, not even Hachiyu. She had always thought that all the money was kept on Wei Xiyan's body, and how could there be so much silver on the nine halves? This was simply a miracle, or a trick-like existence. She really wanted to ask Wei Xicheng, after all, that man had been in contact with Jiu and a half much earlier than her, maybe there was something she didn't know but he knew?

Just as she was thinking so, Wei Xicheng came. Wei Xicheng first walked through the crowd to the center of the circle of onlookers, grabbed Jiuhan's hand and pulled him back, and said as he pulled: "What the hell are you doing, hurry up and go back to sleep with me!

The atmosphere was a little solemn.

Feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him, Wei Xicheng turned around and glanced at the troupe master, who seemed to see something different from the other party's eyes, and he also felt a little strange. So he took out some gold from his bosom, threw it at the other man's feet, and said, "I'm sorry, maybe it's not enough, but that's all I have, forgive me." Then, he grabbed the eight feathers with his right hand and his left hand, broke through the crowd and walked away.

The ears of the nine-and-a-half are actually very useful, and so are the six senses. Although he turned his back to the troupe owner and the weirdos five or six, he still felt a slightly grateful gaze, and the troupe owner's somewhat dull eyes and words: "These rich people, crazy, right?"

In the inn, in the upper room, Wei Xi sat by his bed to soak his feet, while Jiu Ban lay flat on his own bed with Erlang's legs crossed, not knowing what to think.

"Ah~~~" It may be that the hot water is a little comfortable, and Wei Xicheng still can't hold back the moaning sound after all. The sound of the moan reached the ears of the nine and a half and made him smack viciously, and then said, "My brother Wei, what are you doing?

Wei Xicheng, who couldn't hold back and moaned again, lifted his name slightly, and called him who hadn't been properly washed with hot water for a long time, but glanced at Jiu and a half and then said, "I'm idle, I think you're very idle." If you want me to say why are you idle and causing all those troubles, aren't we getting into enough trouble along the way?"

Nine and a half didn't say anything, as if he was out of the world.

Jiuhan didn't say anything, Wei Xicheng said to himself: "If you want me to say, let's don't provoke anything along the way, how good it is to pass over safely and smoothly." Besides, there are so many troupes of strange people in the ancient city, can there be no problems at all? Besides, this ancient city has no name, and this alone is enough to justify it......"

Wei Xicheng seemed to want to continue, but there was a snoring sound from beside him. Glancing at each other helplessly, he sighed heavily, wiped his feet, poured the water and went to bed.

But in fact, nine-and-a-half didn't sleep.

Nine and a half didn't sleep, and Bayu didn't sleep either, and the one who really fell asleep was Wei Xicheng. The reason why Eight Feathers didn't sleep is very simple, everything that Nine Half showed during the day today was too shocking to her, or the contrast was so great that she couldn't react for a while. It turns out that a lazy man can be angry in an instant? This person is probably worth making a deep friendship. Almost all night, Hachiyu was thinking about this one thing.

I didn't sleep at nine-and-a-half, because of five or six. Five or six, or these two people are indeed very peculiar in the eyes of nine and a half. The peculiarity is not just in him or whether they are one or two, but in the unconvinced look in their eyes. The eyes are like sparrows, just saying one thing: You beat me, kill me, I won't be convinced if you kill me.

It's so interesting, it's so strong, it's so rare.

Thinking about it, I fell asleep at nine and a half.

When he woke up, it was very early and abrupt, and he even wanted to scold Bayu at nine and a half.

Eight feathers wake up early, she always gets up early, just when the morning light is faint, and the morning sun is new. But this morning was a little unusual, or too unusual. She likes lazy beds very much, and the warm and lazy feeling of curling up in the quilt when she didn't wake up is very in line with Hachiyu's aesthetics, but this morning she was woken up by freezing.

Not only was she awakened by the cold, but she was still cold when she touched her body, so she screamed suddenly, like a big girl who was seen by someone when she was taking a bath.

But the eight feathers were not seen, she just didn't change the quilt. Not only was it uncovered, but even the few pieces that had fallen off last night fell scattered on the ground around it. If it weren't for the bad wind in the morning, I'm afraid those clothes wouldn't know where to go at this time.

He also found that he didn't blame her for missing the quilt, he pretended not to see and slowly watched her put on her clothes one by one, and then hurriedly called Wei Xicheng up and then said to him: "Brother Wei, it's a pity that you missed some beautiful things." ”

"What??? Wei Xicheng got up with sleepy eyes, and was not surprised to find that he didn't have a cover, so he sat up with a big grin. At this time, Bayu had already passed a pair, and she walked towards Jiu Ban and said as she walked: "Jiu Ban, are you all right?"

"It's good, it's good, there are good views and good people to see, but it's a little cold in the morning. ”

"Still a little hungry. Wei Xicheng answered, and then he stood up and looked around at the situation, then sat down and said, "Damn, why don't you say there is no one around here, and you can't even buy stuttering." ”

Not only is there no one around, but it is already in ruins. The nameless ancient city that bustled last night has now turned into a scorched earth, and it seems that it has been a long, long time since it was uninhabited. The place was full of ruins, as if they had been bombed and then smashed with a hammer, and there was no trace of living life left. Not to mention food, there may not even be any left from the birds.

Seeing Wei Xi sit down, Ba Yu said to him a little anxiously: "Brother Wei, what should we do next......?" I feel like something isn't right here. ”

"Something is really wrong...... Shouldn't we have fallen into the illusion again, like the one you had last time?"

"No, if it's an illusion, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out at all." And this place is already full of ruins and seems to be real, but I feel a strong obsession here...... The obsession is powerful, but it doesn't feel like a person. Speaking of which, Eight Feathers stumbled a little and didn't understand. In fact, Ya Yu was right, and Jiuhan, who had inherited the ability of the Weeping Grave, also felt that this place was unusual, as if there were not ghosts around him, but what it was was not something he would be able to tell for a while.

Suddenly, Nine and a Half suddenly looked back in one direction. There seemed to be a familiar sight appearing and disappearing in that direction, and although there was a moment of tightness, nine and a half were sure that the feeling would not be wrong.

Who could it be?
