Chapter 41: The Unlucky Child

The three of them had no clues, and seeing that the time was almost up, no matter how anxious they were, they could only wait for the disciples to come back. An hour had come, and they waited in place but did not wait for the disciples, seeing that time slipped away bit by bit, but the bustling and lively night market did not change, and it remained the same. Time is here, there is no meaning, people come and go, everyone is immersed in the hustle and bustle.

"It's weird." Chu Huanhuan also realized that something was wrong.

"Oh no, we're careless, something may have happened to them." Ning Chenqian waited left and right and didn't see them come back, and the cold sweat in his palms broke out.

"We can't be apart again." Chu Li didn't dare to take any more risks.

There is no problem with the food here, and the taste will change over time. That proves that time works here, but why do people seem to ...... It's not a fantasy, Chu Huanhuan has been standing in place for a while, she deliberately observed everyone's expressions, and even the process of making food from the small vendors, without repeating.

The bustling and lively procession of gongs and drums once again pushed the already bustling atmosphere of the city to the highest point, and many street vendors and tourists stopped, and everyone had a look of envy on their faces. Chu Huanhuan and the three of them were also squeezed to the side of the road by the crowd, making way for the team to welcome their relatives. The mighty team couldn't see the end at a glance, and the people in front of them were a group of frog demons, wearing red dresses, blowing suona and beating drums.

The dwarfs are all quite good-looking, holding plaques, and it is written that the lord is welcome. The one-man tall white horse hung a big red flower happily, and it took eight horses to pull a cart of dowry, and the dowry was not covered, and a dwarf stood on it. Shura, who was strong and close to two meters, pulled a cash cow made of gold, and as he pulled, he trembled and trembled, and from time to time he would shake off some gold leaves.

The bull demon and ghost followed both sides of the convoy, not only to protect the team, but also to perform juggling, and it was really lively to perform while walking.

"The lord welcomes the family, and all beings are happy~"

The little dwarf standing on the golden mountain and jade sea shouted, picked up the spirit stone jewelry under his feet, and threw it to the tourist vendors around. Everyone was infected by this festive atmosphere and stretched out their hands to fight. The gold leaves dropped by the cash cow are also allowed to be picked up, and this parade is intended to show the generosity of the old man and the importance he attaches to the bride.

"Thank you, sir......."

"The master is really rich!"

"The bride is really blessed, hehe."

Regardless of race, everyone is immersed in the carnival atmosphere, sleepless and not tired at all.

"The lord is generous, and the parade is also for the sake of us little demons."

"yes, yes!"

Although the crowd around them was crowded, everyone tacitly abided by some established rules, and would not be stamped at all because of the competition for spirit stone jewelry. Chu Huanhuan stretched out his hand, and he also got a piece of spirit stone. Ning Chenqian's doubts became more and more serious, these spirit stone jewels were all real, and they were not some small tricks conjured up by spells. Who is the master, who dares to spend money like this?

"Gnomes! It has something to do with the master. Chu Huanhuan felt that these dwarfs were very similar to the two who kidnapped Miaolan, and it was also possible that the dwarfs all looked similar.

"There are no dwarfs in the city, so it seems that we have to go." Ning Chenqian was also aware of this.

The lord can make people of all races in the city obediently listen to him, which is obviously a difficult problem to deal with. Chu Li protected Chu Huanhuan, and the three of them slowly moved with the welcoming team. This team is walking so slowly, they don't care about any good days and auspicious times at all, just to show the grace of the master, and the dowry it seems that it will never be delivered.

Finally, after two hours, the greeting team finally arrived at its destination. The front of the Zhuang Mansion was also full of people, and everyone's enthusiasm for this matter was unprecedentedly high, and the three of them took advantage of the large number of people and quietly slipped to the corner of the Zhuang Mansion. Jumping over the wall, Chu Huanhuan was born and matured, she had already jumped on the wall by herself, and looked back to see the incredulous gazes of the two people below.

"Uh...... Extraordinary times, extraordinary actions, don't look at it, come up quickly. Chu Huanhuan scratched his head and jumped into the Zhuang Mansion a little embarrassed.

"Chu Xiaomei has also grown a lot over the years." Ning Chenqian sighed.

Looking back, in fact, his impression of Chu Huanhuan was very average. Because she was so squeamish, Chu Li was just a teenager at the time, and she had already done a good job of taking care of her. Ning Chenqian often teased her with bad intentions, and was often dumped by Chu Huanhuan, ignoring his attitude. Now I'm not squeamish, and I have some demeanor.

"......" Chu Li led Ning Chenqian's collar, and the two climbed over the wall together.

"Oops! Don't just say a few words, don't be so careful. Ning Chenqian tidied up his torn clothes.

The sight that caught their eyes made them jaw-dropping.

Completely different from the lively scene outside, the inside of the village is so dilapidated that there is no trace of activity at all. It's like a mansion that has been abandoned for a hundred years, and it's hard for Chu Huanhuan not to think, is it haunted? Chu Li still didn't draw his sword, proving that there was no danger here. Ning Chenqian was also stunned, could it be that the old man married a ghost bride?

"Where the ghost clan lives, doesn't it look like this?" Chu Huanhuan realized that he couldn't look at this scene according to normal logic, maybe the people in the ghost domain lived like this?

"Insulting the ghosts." Ning Chenqian didn't feel the breath of the ghost clan either, it was obviously a place that had been abandoned for a long time.

"Who?" Chu Li's sword was faster than his mouth, and the sword light flashed, and the dragon roared, smashing straight into the upper left corner.

"Quack ......"

The sleeve of the little frog demon was nailed by the long sword, it looked stupid and cute, and there was a croaking sound in its throat, and it was anxious to escape after being nailed to the sleeve, and it was bound by the clothes and bounced back. Chu Huan was happy, sneering, looking clumsy, unexpectedly a little cute, obviously a big frog, but pretending to be a human form.

"Xiaoqua, let me ask you, do you know what is going on with the master's marriage?" Chu Huanhuan was not afraid, and took a few steps forward and squatted in front of Xiao Gua.

"Jilu....... "The short paws of the little croaks are still struggling, and they are too stupid to know how to take off the clothes on their bodies.......

When it saw Chu Huanhuan, it seemed to be a little excited, and its face seemed to be faintly flushed. Chu Huanhuan smiled and frowned, she couldn't understand the babbling, and reached out to touch the head of this little thing.

"Don't!" Ning Chenqian saw that she was having fun, but he was still afraid that this demon would have some means.

Chu Huanhuan's hand stopped halfway, some distance from the top of Xiao Gua's head. Xiao Gu jumped to Chu Huanhuan's hand by herself, and rubbed it very affectionately, making her palms itch. Chu Li walked up to the croaking demon with a cold face, and did not draw out the long sword. Xiao Yao was scared when he saw Chu Lideng, but he couldn't retreat, struggled a few times, and turned into a puff of green smoke, and Chu Huanhuan was immediately pulled into the distance.

Ning Chenqian and Chu Li were like great enemies, abandoning their breathing, lest this puff of green smoke be mixed with something else.

When the smoke cleared, the three of them felt that there was nothing unusual.

It's just Xiao Gua's trick, only Xiao Gua's miniature version of anthropomorphic clothes are left on the sword, and the body doesn't know where to go for a long time.

"We're being watched." Ning Chenqian looked at the fleeing demon.

"Sir?" Chu Huanhuan reacted, after all, the croaking demon and the dwarf were both the servants of that master.

"Let's go." Chu Li no longer had the patience to go around, and planned to kill directly to the old man's mansion.

After the three of them left, a puff of green smoke popped out of the same place, and the croaking demon that had not been seen before appeared. It clumsily put away its clothes on the ground, dressed neatly as it ran, and stumbled into the depths of the village. The ruined scene around him added to the horror, and the little croaking demon looked left and right, pushing open one of the doors. A bean-like lamp was lit inside, and it was so dim that it couldn't illuminate the inside of the house.

A person sitting diagonally next to the candle flame sat on the collapse, the black and gold clothes looked even more mysterious and unpredictable in the dim environment, and the black jade mask half-covered on his forehead lined the skin of the lower half of his face was warm and delicate, and he looked like a noble general. Xiao quack stumbled into the door, bowed his hands in a decent manner, and was very respectful to him.

But its body is slightly funny, clumsy, and inexplicably cute. Then he danced and gestured, sometimes pulling the appearance of Chu Di drawing his sword, sometimes muttering something else, and patting the big hole in his sleeve that was pierced by the sword a little angrily. The people on the seat looked at Xiao Gu with a squint, revealing half of the jade-like lower court, and the corners of his mouth were in a good mood.

After saying goodbye, Xiao Quack jumped at his feet and gently rubbed his head against the leg of his trousers.

Zhou Pei gently raised his foot and kicked Xiao Gua, but he didn't use any force, and there were more frolicking ingredients. Xiao Gu was still kicked and turned over, and squatted obediently at his feet.

"I'm not afraid to please her." Zhou Pei picked up the small croaker at his feet, and his deep eyes narrowed slightly.

"Goo." Xiao Quack covered his face, looking embarrassed.

"That's it, she's fine." Zhou Pei let go of Xiao Gua.

"Quack!" Xiao Gu pretended to be fierce and learned from Chu Li's cold and hard stinky face.

"Hehe, let's go and accompany her again. Her brother can't help you. Zhou Pei kicked Xiao Gu lightly.

Xiao Qua's complaint was completely useless, and he ran out again aggrieved. The lights in the house were extinguished violently, and Zhou Pei's figure disappeared in the darkness.

Chu Huanhuan always felt that Xiao Gu seemed to have something to tell her, and she was so intimate. The street is still lively, only the old man's mansion that seems to be hidden in the darkness, silently watching this lively scene. Silent, but secretly snooping, the closer you get to that mansion, the cleaner it becomes. But there were still servants walking in and out to prepare for the wedding.

Unable to sneak in directly, they hid in the shadows, intending to kidnap a few servants, strip them of their clothes, and sneak into the mansion.

Most of the servants in the old man's mansion are all kinds of spirits and goblins, and there are not many clothes suitable for them to wear, but fortunately, after waiting for a while, a servant who looks like a human race appeared. Ning Chenqian and Chu Li, with a tacit understanding, quickly tied people to the dark.

"Woooooo The servant struggled, trying to speak, but was gagged.

"Shut up! We ask you to answer, if you dare to scream, watch your head! Ning Chen viciously pinched his neck and pulled the cloth from his mouth.

"Brother-in-law......"

This brother-in-law shouted at all three people present.

"Ning Shen?" It was rare for Chu Huanhuan to recognize him, and she was still thinking about his spirit beast before.

"Why are you here?" Ning Chenqian was called brother-in-law, his expression was as uncomfortable as eating a fly, and he had to ask.

"We ...... When we came here, the disciples were scattered and scattered, and the missing disappeared. Later, we found out that it was related to the old man's house....... Just disguised himself and wanted to sneak in......" Ning Shen confessed honestly.
