The Eighteenth Calamity: The Demons and Monsters of the Inhuman Bazaar
Entering the tree gate, after a second of darkness, the day was clear, and another arch-like sign came into view, still reading 'Inhuman Collection'.
"Where the hell is this?"
"Isn't it written on the sign that Inhuman Collection?" Xi Ze pointed to the arch.
"What is this place?" I was still confused and didn't dare to move forward.
"This is your alien bazaar, and there are many shops, foreign merchants, many alien people who come here to find what they need. We're here today to find you a medicine that can maintain your human form. ”
"Is that a purpose?" I continued.
"Well, the name of the shop is 'Ju'antang', and I heard Xuanzi say that it was a shop opened by the apprentice of the medicine fairy. I don't know where it is, though. We'll have to look for it together. ”
"You haven't been here?"
"Well, this time it's by your light. Only demon aliens are allowed to enter here. If I hadn't sealed my spiritual power and breath, that old poplar spirit wouldn't have let me in. ”
"Okay...... Can...... I don't have much money. ”
"I've brought enough money with me, and a lot of Inhuman coins, which are the currencies used by monsters in the Otherworld. I just don't know what money that pharmacy charges. ”
"Then I'll pay you back slowly when I go back. ”
"Money is just a number to me, it doesn't mean anything else, and you can make it again if you don't have it. Xi Ze who said this made me feel super domineering! When will I be able to talk like him?
Xi Ze and I walked into the arch together. The bazaar is very lively, and the people are buzzing, no, it should be the sound of demons.
All kinds of strange shapes. Some of them are very handsome and beautiful, and some of them are terrifying and terrifying, so scared that I dragged Xi Ze's sleeve and hid behind him and tiptoed to take small steps.
Because of the cat's sensitive hearing, I heard Xi Ze's heart also "plop" and beat very fast. The first time he came, he didn't know what to expect, and he was nervous.
"There are not only alien demons like you here, but also all kinds of creatures that can be called monsters, so be careful not to touch people. ”
As soon as I entered the bazaar, I saw the kind of creature that Xi Ze was talking about: a super-muscular minotaur monster with mud-yellow skin, holding something that seemed to be a shield in his left hand, and a long knife in his right hand, waving his shield in both hands, as if soliciting business. But it scared away all the customers passing by.
In front of the minotaur is a stall with all kinds of utensils, with knives, swords, all kinds of axes, hooks and forks, and behind him there is a very simple earthen house, like the kind of house in the countryside in the past, and various metal utensils are also hung at the door of the house.
All the utensils are ancient. It's a shop that sells ancient metal artifacts.,I don't know who would sell such things.,Maybe the social development of monsters is still in ancient times.。 Since I had never seen any of these objects before, I took a closer look at the stall. But accidentally, my eyes met the minotaur, and the three big brown eyes were all staring at me vigilantly, so I was so frightened that I retracted behind Xi Ze.
There is a large store with a very modern decoration opposite the antique store, and I happened to see a man in sunglasses dressed in modern clothes and looking like an ordinary human coming out of it, holding a silver-white object that can radiate blue light, a bit like something in a science fiction blockbuster to attract customers. There are indeed a lot of passing guests watching there, and it seems that business is good. I guess it's a modern store, but it turns out that the monsters' shop is also very modern.
"No wonder that bull-headed brother is so short-tempered. "I feel a little funny.
"Huh?" Xi Ze looked at me suspiciously.
"Across the street is a modern high-tech one, who would buy that kind of ancient artifact, collector?"
"You don't know, in an alien world, classical and modern can coexist. There are both high-tech and antique. Xi Ze explained with a smile.
Further on, there is a very delicate storefront, the name is 'Qinxiang Pavilion', this name is very old, I don't know why the name of the store here is so old-fashioned, the main color of pink knows that the owner must be a woman.
When you walk to the front of the store, you can smell a very attractive aroma that makes you want to go inside. I dragged the reluctant Xi Ze in, there were all kinds of skin care products inside and outside the counter, cosmetics, brands were not owned in the world I lived in, and there was a counter with many round boxes that looked very old, and the boxes were very beautiful. Through the glass, you can also smell the fragrance inside.
"What is this?"
"Rouge and incense powder. A quiet and gentle voice came. Out of the room came a woman with pale pink skin (because I don't know what a demon is, it's a woman's appearance, so it's called a woman for the time being.) That's right, her skin is pink, her ears are pointy, and her long hair and pupils are green. The overall feeling is like a pink avatar.
The woman was wearing a strange and revealing skirt, the top was a bandeau decorated with many purple and red petal-shaped decorations, and underneath was a petal-shaped skirt, with a thin waist and lower abdomen exposed, which was very sexy. If her inhuman features were removed, she would have been a very beautiful woman.
"It's really my honor to have two distinguished guests here! The shop has a complete range of cosmetics and fragrances, both ancient and modern styles. Welcome to buy!" The voice is still soft.
"Fragrant girl!" Xi Ze exclaimed.
"What...... What?" I didn't react.
"She is a magical incense beast, a waiter beside the god of flowers. I said how this scent is so special. He added. I still don't know the specifics.
"The superintendent is really powerful. As she spoke, the goblin's body changed, and her pink skin turned into the color of normal human flesh. "Doesn't that look better......? Civet girl?"
"You...... "I'm a little nervous, what if the enemy knows who I am?"
"You have so much civet breath, how could I not know?" the enchantress asked rhetorically.
"The upper realm wants me to protect her, if you tell others about her, you won't have good fruit to eat, you know?" Xi Ze said very sternly.
"Don't be nervous, Lord Overseer, I'm the only one here, but her civet aura is really too strong and can be easily discovered. Let me help you. ”
As she spoke, the woman turned around and looked for something near the counter. I still didn't dare to speak. "This is a bottle of floral essence perfume with a special scent. Spraying it can hide the original breath. With that, she sprayed the green perfume directly onto me. I howled in fright.
"What are you doing!! Xi Ze was furious. Then he calmed down again, smelled my body, and didn't speak.
"Don't worry, it's not poisonous. This bottle is for you. If there's a problem, the supervisor can kill me. She said.
I looked at Xi Ze and nodded at me, making sure there was nothing wrong with the perfume. "But I don't have any money. ”
"I don't want money for you, just ...... It's good to give me a hand when you become famous in the future, my name is Yingluo, you can come here to find me if you have something. ”
"Let's go. Xi Ze pulled me out. I didn't speak, and Yingluo didn't stop us.
