The old witch in the purple cloak took a closer look at the portrait.

There was a short-haired wizard wearing a red robe with a black cat tail, a long-haired witch wearing a red robe with a pair of white cat ears in her hair, and a grey dog with a hideous appearance and a hateful face, with the letters 'mew' next to it, meaning that the dog could bark.

"Strangers?"

The old witch blinked, and her gaze fell on the color of the hair of the two young wizards: "They all have black hair, and they have a dog that learns to bark?"

"Yes. They shouldn't have been in this city for long," Zhu Zhu's eyes kept staring at the golden cat's paw that peeked out from under the old witch's cloak, but his mouth answered the question in a regular manner: "If you can tell us where they are......"

As she spoke, she pulled out a heavy bag of gold from her bosom.

This was 'borrowed' by her just while chatting with the dwarf merchant.

The gold was placed on the purple tablecloth with a heavy sound, and the old witch's half-squinted eyes suddenly widened, and the cat under the cloak showed an apricot-yellow pupil.

"Really...... It's a pity. The old witch looked greedily at the bag of gold, hesitated for a long time, and finally did not dare to lie in front of the two-headed demon: "I have not seen these people in the portrait. ”

"Oh. There wasn't much disappointment in Zhu Zhu's tone, and she didn't expect to find those guys just by asking. She picked up the bag of gold again, but the old witch's wizened paw grabbed a corner of the pocket.

"I can provide clues. The old witch licked her lips and glanced at the little banshee.

Zhu Zhu hesitated for a second and turned his head to look at Nikita.

Nikita was still working on that little poem.

But she seemed to notice Zhu Zhu's gaze and nodded slightly.

The little banshee tugged hard, dragged the bag of gold back into her arms, then ripped open the bag, took out a few gold coins from it, and threw them on the purple tablecloth: "If it's just a clue...... That's enough. ”

The old witch was a little disappointed, but she quickly put away the gold coins with her hands and feet, and put them to her mouth one by one and bit them.

Not afraid of breaking the teeth, Zhu Zhu looked at the few yellow teeth left in the old witch's shriveled mouth, and thought maliciously in his heart, and at the same time knocked on the table urgingly.

"If you're looking for someone, you can't go wrong and ask at the tavern over there. The old witch replied unhurriedly, "But if you want to find someone with black hair, you have to go to Menes's Cat Tavern...... It was the place with the highest concentration of black-haired people in the entire city. ”

"Tavern?" said Nikita, turning back and muttering for a moment, "Well, I just want to have some drinks." ”

Unlike her, the Banshee's attention is more likely to be drawn to the part that suits the Banshee: "Cat Tavern, meaning there are a lot of cats in that shop?"

"No, there's only one black cat in that store. The wrinkles on the old witch's face widened into an elusive smile: "And no one knows whether the cat is alive or dead." ”

......

......

The figures of the two banshees had just disappeared into the crowd.

In front of the divination booth under the purple umbrella, several small business owners who were doing business nearby gathered.

Wearing a white apron, chubby, bald head, the fried chicken stall owner asked cautiously, "Those two guests just now..."

"It's a legendary demon, right?" The fruit stall owner with two mustaches looked at the old witch affirmatively: "Their scarlet eyes? Far away? can scare people to death!"

"Vampire eyes are red too......"

"Vampires have never been here in Usa, and ghouls are pretty much the same!"

"Have you ever seen such a beautiful ghoul?"

"Shut up!" the old witch's wizened paw slapped heavily on the purple tablecloth? Stopped the commotion in front of the stall: "Don't you see the pattern on the shoulder of the tall lady?"

"Seems like a capital 'M'?"

"That's a subordinate of the Kraken King? Captain Mist's emblem. "Everywhere, the soothsayer is the most knowledgeable of all beings? The old witch easily confirmed the identity of the banshees: "It is a being not inferior to the great Lord Bastit. ”

"What are the Siren King's subordinates doing in Usa City," the proprietress of the dwarf jewelry store wringed her fingers uneasily, "We don't have the sea here......"

"But we have cats here," replied the old witch in the affirmative, "even demons have no way to resist the charm of these chosen creatures...... We must report this to the temple. ”

"The wandering caravan is here!"

"The wandering caravan is coming! their camels have passed the gates!"

A newsboy in a short gray coat runs from one end of the street to the other? At the same time, he shouted the latest news to the merchants in the market: "They want colored glass beads, wood carvings made of dead trees, and transparent pebbles! Will eat a lot!"

The small merchants gathered in front of the divination booth dispersed in a hurry, and quickly returned to their respective stalls, ready to welcome a large number of customers.

Only the old witch, slowly putting away the parchment and hardcover book on the purple tablecloth.

And then she rubbed the thin-spouted copper kettle with her wizened fingers? Looking at the pearl-colored mist spewing out of the spout? muttered: "Bastit, Bastit, Bastit......"

A fat golden gradient emerged from under the old witch's robe, its large, round head rubbing against her lap.

The old witch took out one of the gold coins that the banshee had given her and stuffed it into the small leather pocket around the neck of the golden gradient? Then he touched the soft hairs on its neck: "Go, go?" Bastith's darling, tell the Grand Elder of Attar? Strange guests came to town......"

The fat cat slid from the old witch's lap to the ground, and the footsteps were brisk to burrow under the table? Just a flash? Disappear into the crowded streets in the blink of an eye? Gone without a trace.

......

......

"Don't we really have to go back to the temple?" Zheng Qing pushed open a butterfly spring door and looked back at Xiao Xiao: "By the way, how did we get out of the museum just now?"

"Magic. The doctor replied simply, "After asking what you want to ask, there is no reason to stay there." ”

"Then why are we here?"

"Because I'm hungry. Xiao Xiao lifted his glasses and replied with humble eyes: "And this is the closest place to us that sells food." ”

A cacophony of voices poured into the young wizard's ears as the door was pushed open.

The smell of smoke, the aroma of wine and barbecue, and the loud noise of travelers from different sources mingled with each other, creating an atmosphere of barbarism and civilization in the dim light of the tavern.

"Welcome to Menes' Cat Tavern!"

The waiter of the shop warmly welcomed the guests who had just walked into the store: "Here is the most delicious barbecue in the city of Usa, the most refreshing drink, and the most mysterious cat!"
