Chapter XXXIII: Offerings
Without much teasing him, Peach seemed to be really busy, and left after a brief explanation, Nagumo sat in his chair and pondered.
Peach can take out the crescent moon in the acupuncture point of his body, without causing him the slightest discomfort, such a cultivation, he doesn't know how to be sure, he can only be sure that the light that erupts under the bridge must be related to Peach Hong.
It's just, how did she provoke the desolate spirit? Didn't people say that after the Blood Moon, the Desolate Spirit couldn't get close?
Neither of them asked any more questions, and Nagumo learned his lesson.
Since there are many problems, as long as you stay in Guqian City for a long time, you will know, then stay, senior brother, they will find out sooner or later that I didn't go out, so don't worry about it for the time being.
After calming himself, he went downstairs alone and blended into the endless crowd.
Across the street at the entrance of Lingyunfang, the fat man looked at Nanyun who came out in amazement, and quickly turned his head to look at the other side.
In another corner, the black dog watching Lingyunfang was also shocked.
Quietly, the two of them approached Nanyun at the same time, and somewhere upstairs, Tao Hong was squinting and admiring the prosperity of the ancient city.
The two maids didn't deliberately hide themselves, they followed Nanyun from a distance, keeping enough distance, as long as Nanyun was in their sight.
Turning back by chance, after Nanyun saw the two of them, he didn't look out of the ordinary, he carefully looked at the scenery and people of the ancient city, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the ancient city was vast and boundless, and it had its own atmosphere.
The busy street suddenly became more crowded, and he was pushed to the other side by the dense crowd of pedestrians, and the maid behind was about to step forward, but was suddenly blocked by the person who appeared in front of him.
Just after finding a vacant place under the eaves to gain a firm foothold, Nanyun was pulled closer to the store by the fat man.
"Are you alright? That's great! β
He happily looked at the three who were safe and sound, but the three looked at him with great seriousness, with suspicion and scrutiny.
"What? What's the problem? While keeping an eye on the people in the store, Nagumo said casually, wary of the three of them.
"You're fine, you're all on the pink bed."
The fat man was not shocked, not only shocked Nanyun, but Luo Huan and the black dog were also surprised, and they all looked at Nanyun curiously.
Knowing that the fat man would not be so simple, Nanyun found a place to sit down at random and said, "Are you hungry?" I'm in for a treat today. β
Luo Huan's eyes lit up and he sat down, and after a slight hesitation, the black dog sat next to Luo Huan.
The fat man nodded and went to the right side of Nanyun, and the four people who risked killing together separated some distances.
The behavior of the three of them made Nanyun feel more comfortable, and the guys on the side came over to order, and the maid who followed came in.
After signaling to the guy Luo Huan to call the shots, Nanyun got up and greeted them, and the two didn't eat, just stood behind Nanyun obediently.
The meal was very dull, and the three of them only cared about eating, during which they did not ask a word; And Nanyun was free and didn't ask, at this time, he had nothing to be afraid of.
He didn't know Zhao Min's life or death, and he didn't dare to ask; After experiencing the matter of being dementored, he didn't dare to speak indiscriminately, the other party could drink violently in the painting boat, and Pink's identity and face would definitely not count.
He had completely calmed down, treating himself as a passer-by, wanting to stand aside and observe the ancient city.
Everyone else knew that he was a mortal, but no one knew, and he also knew many things that ordinary cultivators didn't know.
Knowing that the three of them were hindered by the two maids on their side, it was difficult for them to speak, so he got up a little boredly and was about to go to settle the bill.
"Childe, wait a minute!"
One of them spoke up obediently and walked to the ledger, while the other also left, a little rejoicing.
In this extremely short time, the fat man picked Nagumo's instep under the table.
"You were eaten by Pink?"
The expressions of the three of them were serious, and they didn't have the image of the living treasure of the past at all, shaking their heads, Nanyun said indifferently: "There shouldn't be!" β
"Is there or isn't?" The black dog asked, his eyes full of suspicion.
"Nope!"
"Do you want to die or live?"
"Nonsense!"
"Okay, you find an opportunity to come to the Taohuajiang Bridge to find us."
Just entered the city and want to go out?
"When?"
"Anytime, there will be someone waiting for you."
"Slow?"
"What?"
"Didn't the beast tide attack the ancient city?"
"They circled around the city a few times and disappeared."
After a quick conversation, the three of them got up to leave, Luo Huan didn't forget to take the roast chicken that hadn't been touched, and kept saying thank you to Nanyun.
The maid also came back, and one of them packed the store's famous dish, lotus leaf snow clams, and Nanyun smelled the fragrance.
The two of them stood in front of him so pretty, very well-behaved.
"My name is Nagumo!"
"Childe, my name is Qingli."
"Hee-hee, my name is Jinyu."
He could understand the name of the green carp, and even associated her with the demon clan; But the name Jinyu surprised him a little.
Nodding, he turned to leave, and the green carp said crisply: "I saw that the son didn't eat just now, and the owner also loves to eat this lotus leaf snow clam." β
Almost stumbling, Nanyun was extremely sad and indignant.
The meaning of the green carp is that he wants him to go back to Lingyunfang and eat with Taohong.
"Well, let's go back."
As soon as he came, he felt that the ancient city was very strange, and he always felt out of place. He found himself inexplicably involved in this kind of weirdness.
He had only been with the three of them for a few days, and he knew that if it wasn't for something serious, the fat man wouldn't have such a dignified look.
As soon as he went out, he was targeted, and he preferred to believe that the fat man was spying on Ling Yunfang.
And after returning from the adventure, even after experiencing the beast tide, the fat man is here?
There were many possibilities, but he was not sure of anything, and he had no interest in continuing shopping.
When you step on the street, the voices of the people around you are silent.
The brigade of men and horses pressed down from the street in a neat and silent manner, and the carts were loaded with raw meat and grain.
There were people in the car handing out, people on both sides were consciously pulling aside, and many young people took the initiative to accept the raw meat, followed by the older ordinary people who stepped forward.
There are also people who take the initiative to reach out and shoot a little spiritual power when the vehicle comes close, and after confirming their identity as a cultivator, they bow their heads and make way of the way.
And these people in the City Lord's Mansion, between their actions, were quite respectful to mortals, and they could see that Nanyun was confused.
When the convoy came to the front and confirmed his identity as a cultivator, Qing Carp said to the people in the car: "I will receive today's offering for my son-in-law. β
The man was slightly stunned, turned around and picked out a good piece of meat in the car, and handed it to the green carp.
"Thank you, sir!"
The green carp thanked him, and the convoy continued to move forward, but at this time, Nanyun was still a little confused.
"The harvest of people going out to hunt is uniformly allocated by the adults of the City Lord's Mansion to ensure that the old and young in the city have no worries about food and clothing."
Jin Yu's words solved Nanyun's doubts, and immediately, he was shocked.
With the size of the ancient city and the large population, such a good deed must be supported by a huge number of cultivators, what kind of force is this?
It is no wonder that people who go out on adventures try their best to bring their prey back to the city completely, and the city lord's mansion exchanges the prey in the hands of the people for their residence qualifications, and then distributes these prey to the people.
This?
Is this realistic?
Support? Compared to the Ancient City and the Spirit Ruins, the status of mortals and cultivators was just the opposite, and he felt that it was magical.
"The master explained that when we are by Childe's side, Childe can also speak and act freely, do whatever he wants, see anyone, as long as Childe is in Lingyunfang, he is free."
Qing Carp said lightly, she didn't use spells, she also felt a little heavy when she carried such a large piece of meat.
"I see, give it to me."
He understands that there will never be love, hatred and charity for no reason in this world, and there must be other reasons why Peach is so worthy of him.
RosΓ© is so nervous about me, could it be another kind of offering?
The sense of crisis came from nowhere, and Nanyun only felt chills when he looked at the bustle of the street.
