Chapter 1: Adventures in the Prefecture

At the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, there was only one continent in the world, and in the independent sea, the ancient continent. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe ancient continent gathers the aura of heaven and earth, absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon, and achieves the prosperity of life on the continent. Both plants and animals and later human beings are thriving and vibrant, and there is a prosperous situation that has been dominated by thousands of generations.

Birth, old age, sickness and death are common feelings, but the human race is dissatisfied with the foundation they have worked hard to build falling into the hands of future generations or going to extinction, and they are rebellious. Until a genius girl from the Rong family appeared, she proposed that people could use the breath of heaven and earth to swallow and absorb, and practice to strengthen the body to achieve immortality and immortality. As soon as this remark came out, mushrooms began to be studied.

Driven by desire and ambition, the human race gradually comprehended the mystery of the aura in heaven and earth, and finally appeared in the fairy world, the Buddha world, the god world, the demon world, the spirit world, the ghost world, and the original mortal and human world, and the eight worlds were finally consummated!

Then the unprecedentedly huge war between the Eight Realms ruthlessly divided this originally arrogant continent, and the continent was divided into seven major plates under the wash of war and time! The major plates looked across the sea, and most of the later generations of the Eight Realms had forgotten the ancient continent at the beginning of heaven and earth.

After the War of the Eight Realms, the aura of heaven and earth fused, and within a few years, Kunlun Mountain rose from the ground, and then it was occupied by the divine realm as its own, becoming the mountain of the gods, and it was also called the sacred mountain in later generations. At the same time, the ancient trees of Shushan, which is located in the northeast of Kunlun Mountain, which is thousands of miles away, soared, holding up the surrounding mountains, and the mountains and rocks stood in the sky, looking at all earthly things from afar, there was a sense of arrogance among the heroes.

After that, the Eight Realms almost triggered another War of the Eight Realms in order to compete for Shushan, but fortunately, the human race knew that it was difficult to retreat because of its own ability, and the Demon Realm and the Demon Realm were no match for the power of the Three Realms of Immortals and Buddhas. At that time, the Buddha realm had no mortal obsession and did not occupy the light of the world, so it was indisputable. The divine realm already had the idea of monopolizing Kunlun Mountain, so he defined a code with the immortals - Kunlun is owned by the divine realm, and Shushan belongs to the immortal realm. At that time, Kunlun Mountain and Shu Mountain were basically formed, and the two worlds coincided, so there was no longer any other argument.

Kunlun and Shushan are located in the Canglan Continent, the Canglan Continent is shaded, and the other six continents are the first to look at it. Located in the middle of the Yonghe River between Kunlun and Shushan, there is a rich land - Lanchi City. Lanchi City is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the land is fertile and extends in all directions.

Lanchi City belongs to the city-state of the Great Huang Dynasty, and the city is famous in the Eight Realms, and it is the best choice to buy or sell what you want to buy or sell.

Early this morning, a girl from Jinshi Village on the outskirts of Lanchi City left her father who went out hunting, and went out with the red rabbit she hunted last night. My aunt is about sixteen years old, in the flowering season, and her appearance is not beautiful. She was dressed in a coarse linen dress and carried a basket on her back at this time, and she had already come to Lanchi City, and the city was crowded with people, and pedestrians rubbed shoulders one after another, all of them were heading towards the city.

The prefecture market is also known as the black market in the city, and the people of the Eight Realms can trade here. Ten years ago, the lord of the Dahuang Dynasty ordered the legalization of local market transactions for some reason, and since then, the volume of local market transactions has risen rapidly, and many people have made a fortune and some have lost their homes because of it. However, another decree issued by the lord of the country made the civil and military officials incomprehensible, that is, it was forbidden for registered officials and their relatives to enter the prefecture and city to trade, even if they could buy a piece of coarse cloth, and those who violated the order would be beheaded! The rich variety of transactions in this prefecture and city made it difficult for people to stabilize their hearts, and many officials who stole behind their backs were beheaded, but there were still people who went there secretly.

People from all walks of life in the city enter the city, and all walks of life must pass through the corresponding checkpoints to enter the transaction. For example, the people of the human realm will enter through the human gate, and the ghost realm will enter through the underworld, and so on.

The little girl from Jianshi Village, who showed her household registration card at the door, successfully passed the checkpoint and squeezed into the crowded city with the red rabbit on her back.

As soon as she entered the city, a noisy voice rushed towards her like a wave, with shouting, shouting, cheering, and the sound of the crowd of discussions, and the voices were uneven. Although it was not the first time for the little girl to come, she was deeply attracted by the lively scene in front of her, and she looked left and right with the red rabbit on her back, jumping around like a rabbit in the crowd and almost forgetting the time. The texture of the meat can still be maintained for twelve hours after the death of the red rabbit, and once it exceeds this time, the texture and taste will weaken a lot. And the red rabbit in the twelve hours is not fresh in the local market, but it is easy to sell.

The little girl was watching strangely at a stall owner holding a scale the size of a baby's palm, who had a mustache and shouted at the stall with the scales. "Take a look, Taichong foreign mermaid scales, which can be used as medicine, can be viewed and warded off evil spirits. ”

The little girl was fascinated by the colorful scales, and a pair of bright eyes carefully looked at each color on the scales.

"Little girl, is this red rabbit going to be sold?"

A thin and shrill voice bypassed all kinds of noises and fell clearly into the little girl's ears. The girl looked back and saw that the morning sun was completely obscured, and what fell into front of her was a giant whose palm was about the size of herself, a giant was one of the human races, with an average height of about nine feet, and the giant in front of her was about ten feet.

The little girl instinctively took a few steps back in fright, and she laughed at the Humble man who sat on the giant's shoulder. The Burgers are commonly referred to as dwarves in the world, and they get this common name because of their short stature.

Since it was backlit, the little girl couldn't see the outline of the humble man clearly, so she had to nod shyly. As a result, a large hand dragged a dark-skinned humble man like a small monkey to stand in front of her.

The dwarf Roger clasped his hands in his arms, and his slippery eyes stared at the dead red rabbit in the girl's back basket.

"I said, little girl, your red rabbit's fur is dull, and it is estimated that you have been dead for twelve hours, and it is worth a small bead at most. The Bug looked at the little girl with a pretended loss of loss.

The Pegs are small in stature but brilliant in their brains, and they are ghostly and intelligent. When the little girl heard this, she shyly took out an hourglass made of river snails from her coarse sack pocket and handed it to the dwarf, only to see that the sand in the hourglass of the river snail was half of it.

"No, I caught it last night, and I turned the hourglass upside down. You see, there's so much more sand. ”

The Humble man pondered for a moment. "Five small beads, no more. ”

"No, it's a red rabbit. The little girl put down the basket and took out the red rabbit and parted the rabbit's hind legs. "Look, I didn't lie to you. The meat of the male red rabbit is the most fragrant. At least ...... "The little girl held up a finger.

"A big pearl?" the dwarf was visibly surprised. "You ghost girl, no, Liuxiaozhu. ”

"Big brother, you can buy it. The giant who was holding the Humble man in his hand finally couldn't help it, and lowered his waist to look at the red rabbit in the girl's hand and said honestly.

The dwarf gave the giant a blank look, and threw a large pearl to the little girl, and then without waiting for the little girl to react, he took the rabbit in her hand, and then the giant put the dwarf back on his shoulder and walked away.

The sister-in-law stared curiously at the big and small figures in the distance, but in the end, she didn't forget to bite the big bead in her hand, and after confirming that it was true, she left happily with the basket on her back.

The area of the city is very large, and people from all walks of life trade together after entering the market, so it leads to the intricate trading network within the market, which is unknown to ordinary people.

There is a street on this side of the East Square with a banner with the word medicine, which is specialized in selling various medicines, such as common wound ointment, silver bupleurum, forsythia and other herbs for treating external injuries and treating wind and cold. Among them, there are also some rare herbs, which are worth a lot of money, such as thousand-year-old ginseng, high-grade snow lotus, solid dissolved sperm beast grass, etc., all of which are high-quality medicines.

The street where medicine is sold is filled with the fragrance of various herbs, mixed with a hint of bitterness. The little girl had seen enough of the freshness and walked to this street where herbs were sold. She looked in all directions, and silently chanted "Xueji grass, Xueji grass." ”

"Hey, Xue Ji Grass. As if she had found a treasure, the little girl ran to the stall with the snow grass. An old woman with a grim face on the stall looked straight ahead like wood, and the little girl waved at the old woman before saying, "Old woman, old woman, how do you sell your snow grass?"

The old woman withdrew her gaze and looked at her like a stone sculpture. "It's only one catty, and you take all the big beads. ”

"Okay! I want them all. The little girl happily took out a large pearl that she had just exchanged for a red rabbit and handed it to the old woman, and then went to get the snow grass from the stall. "Ah, old woman. You're not right, there's not a pound of it. ”

The old woman put the big bead in her arms and didn't pay much attention. "It's impossible, it's just a pound. ”

The little girl was anxious, looked at the snow grass in her hand with her eyes, and weighed it again. "It's really not a pound, don't believe it, let's weigh it. ”

The old woman's expression turned serious when she heard this, and a pair of cloudy old eyes stared at Xue Jicao and moved her eyes up to look at the little girl's face, as if she wanted to see something from it. The little girl ignored the old woman, but asked another medicine seller next to her to borrow a scale, and then put the snow grass on the weighing plate, and skillfully fiddled with the scale a few times, and the scale moved to a position of about seven taels and the scale rod stabilized. "Look, old woman, it's only seven taels, not a pound. ”

The old woman stared at the weighing rod in disbelief, put a piece of jade pendant-like thing in her arms into the scale, and the boss who borrowed the name on the side saw the jade pendant-like thing, his eyes were in a trance for a moment, and he immediately returned to normal.

The old woman saw that the scale pole was flat at five taels, and her face was solemn for a while, and she ignored the little girl and left quickly. When the little girl reacted from the doubt, the old woman had disappeared without a trace, but it was too late, and the little girl looked at the snow grass in her hand and cried. The boss on the side is fat, and there is thick body hair around his navel. The boss took it back and said that he ignored the girl who was standing there crying, and then began to shout and go about his own business. Everyone passing by glanced at it and went about their business.

The scene of the little girl crying was reflected on the artificial waterfall in a garden in Lanchi City, and a little boy with red hair was suspended in the air and quietly looked at the crying girl in the picture.

"Tell Xiaoqing to come and see me. The boy spoke to himself, as if there were others in this empty garden, but in the next moment, the words of the second person sounded out of thin air in the garden: "Tell the Hades King, the Qingkui Ghost Emperor is already on his way." ”

Hades is the head of the Eight Realms of Necromancy, and all living beings are under the jurisdiction of Hades after death. Hades let you fall into the six realms, and you will not be allowed to return to the dead, this sentence will be sung by the little babies in the human world.

"Qing Kui meets the Hades. "A woman in a dark red robe, about twenty years old, knelt on one knee, and her pretty face was covered with frost.

The child turned around. "Xiaoqing, I was careless about Xuejicao, but you shouldn't abandon that girl, you see ......" The child turned sideways to let Qingkui see the reflection on the water curtain.

At this time, the girl's tears had dried up, and she held the snow grass tightly in her hand and left with the basket on her back, and the figure with the basket twitched from time to time.

Qing Kui's face did not change in the slightest when he saw it, and the frosty color still hung on his face. "Hades, my subordinates are just in a hurry to come back and report the omission of Xueji Grass, every time it is a pound of Xueji Grass for a big pearl in the world, but this time it is ......"

"The underworld pays attention to doing things, but the human world is different, and human affection is the root of the vitality of the human world. I blame me for being careless for this matter, and at noon you brought enough pounds of Xueji grass to visit, which was counted as an apology, and then invited her to come, and I wanted to apologize to her in person. ”

Qing Kui's face loosened a little when she heard this. "Hades, how can this be. It's good to tell your subordinates to do such a trivial matter, so why invite her to come to the house. ”

When the child heard this, his little hand was raised slightly, and his hand swept behind the water curtain when the old woman took out the jade pendant and called the boss on the side, and the picture was frozen at the moment when the fat boss was in a trance.

Seeing the picture, the woman hurriedly bowed and said: "It's Qingkui who didn't handle things well and leaked her identity, and she is willing to be punished." ”

The child's robe was retracted, the picture on the water curtain disappeared, and the man-made waterfall was restored to its original state.

"It's okay this time, the demon people have other purposes for my underworld, and this time it is a blessing for the ghost world of the underworld. It's just that this matter may implicate this little girl, and it is not the work of the underworld to bring harm to the world, so you must invite her over before noon. ”

Qing Kui nodded in understanding when she heard this, and a warm color finally appeared on her gloomy face. "My subordinates will do it. ”

Not long after Qing Kui retreated, a burst of words sounded out of thin air again in the garden where only the Hades King was left. "Hades King, Immortal Heavenly Dao Saint Mei Zongjian asks to see. ”

"It's Mei Zongjian again, what does my ghost world have to do with his immortal world, do your best for him to make such twists and turns, let him wait. ”

"Hades King, there is one more thing, there is a necromancer in the Northern Twin Star Continent who cannot enter the six roulettes, and cannot be reincarnated. ”

The child's brows furrowed. "Found out but the demons did it?"

"The Seven Palaces Yan Jun has no clue about the necromancer, and wants to invite the Hades King to go. ”

"Hmph, that's how this guy works. You step back first and entertain the Immortal Realm Mei Zongjian. ”

"The subordinates are ordered. ”

At this time, a man in fairy style and green clothes in the main hall sat on the right chair of the double treasure chair, and a pair of young men and women with fairy appearance stood beside him. The young man looked impatient, his eyes staring at the door.

"Master, this Hades doesn't know how to lift. Your old man has been waiting here for a long time, but he is fine. I only sent those dead spirits to bring a pot of tea, and there was no one to be seen. The young man was indignant, and flicked his sleeves fiercely.

The man known as the master was silent, drinking his tea and seeing nothing else. The woman on the side also looked quiet, her beautiful face was like a hibiscus out of water, and her whole body exuded the breath of a fairy.

At this time, it was almost noon, and the thatched huts on the east side of Jinshi Village on the outskirts of Lanchi City stood with white smoke curling, and most of the women in the village were cooking on the stoves. One of the women was holding a fan under a big tree to cool off, and next to this woman stood a bamboo chair with a pot of fresh hairy li. Mao Li is produced in the south, and eating Mao Li at this time is something that a big family does, not like people in this poor suburban village.

The women are also good, but the two thin eyebrows float on the face and look so charming.

"Is this Jinyuan's home?"

At some point, a carriage came, and an old woman with a grim face got out of the carriage. The old woman asked, apparently not hearing, but still leaning back in her chair and shaking her fan, enjoying the fresh hairy lily as if she were fascinated.

Seeing this, the old woman raised her voice: "Ahem, may I ask if this is the home of the maid?"

When the woman heard the sound, she turned her head and saw a gloomy old woman, and suddenly felt unlucky, but she saw a gorgeous carriage parked behind the old woman, the two white horses were muscular, and a pair of white ears stood straight, which showed that this horse was not ordinary.

"Ouch, this is the home of the Jinyuan. I'm her mother, what is the matter with this old man looking for her?" Suddenly, her face changed and she became anxious. "Oh, it can't be that little beast causing trouble outside again! This is a terrible thing, she didn't feel right when she came back from buying medicine this morning, and sure enough, I guessed it!" After saying that, before the old woman could reply, the woman hurried into the house.

After a while, a little girl was pulled out of the house by the woman's ears.

"You said that you, don't talk about wasting food all day long, this time you have caused a lot of goods!

The woman was pulled out of the house by the little girl who bought snow grass this morning, and the little girl was pulled by her ears and did not cry or make trouble, did not say a word, and did not have any expression on her face. But when she saw the old woman, tears suddenly poured down her eyes. She ran towards the old woman, despite the fact that her ears were still being pulled, but fortunately her ears were slippery, otherwise the woman's hands would have pulled off one of her ears.

"I said that there is not a pound of Xueji grass, why did you run away, old woman? You hurt me so badly. ”

The old woman saw the little girl's two lines of snot and tears, and a trace of warmth appeared on her gloomy face.

"Here, this time it's really a pound of snow grass, a pound of it, I didn't lie to you, old man. This Xueji grass doesn't charge you money, it counts as my apology, you can accept it. The old woman handed the wrapped snow grass to the crying girl, who looked at the old woman with teary eyes. For a moment, the old woman felt that she was still a good person, and the little bud slowly took root in the old woman's heart and continued to grow.

"It's good if you make up three taels for me, and you can take back the remaining seven taels. My father said that you can't take anything that isn't your own. ”

Seeing this, the woman behind the two finally understood, and she crossed her waist and strode forward: "It turns out that you sent my daughter's title! This is not good, you are doing business, you eat someone else's name and now make up for it, how can you return the money!"

The old woman looked at the woman, remembered the explanation of the Hades, and had to take out a large pearl from her bosom and put it in the woman's hand. "This is Xuejicao's money, and I will return it to you. You can accept this catty of snow grass on behalf of your daughter, and this matter will be over. ”

When the woman saw a big bead in her hand, and there was a fine traumatic herb Xueji grass, which was enough for the dead ghost in this house to use for a long time, this deal was a good deal, and she didn't think much about it and accepted the herb and the big bead.

"My master plans to invite your daughter to the house as a guest, so let's go, and I'll send her back later. ”

The happy woman didn't care about the old woman's words, but just nodded, and her eyes paid attention to the authenticity of the big pearl.

When the old woman saw this, she took the little girl's hand and said, "Go away, child, my master is waiting for you." ”

The little girl was curious, hesitated for a while, and then followed the old woman into the carriage. After a while, by the time the woman reacted, the carriage was long gone.

"Oh, no! I'm so stupid to not ask for more! ”

While the women were chattering, two men appeared on the top of a tree on a mountain in the distance. One of them was the fat boss who borrowed the little girl's rod scale this morning, and the other was a young man who looked like a scholar.

The fat boss said with a serious face: "Childe, the girl who borrowed my scale pole lives there." ”
