Chapter 9: The Lights of Ten Thousand Homes
After thinking about it a few times, Mo Jianchu finally added Dai Wangshu's postal card account.
As soon as the application message was sent, the application was agreed upon, and a very familiar message was replied: I approved your friend verification request, and now we can start chatting.
Mo Jianchu couldn't cry or laugh, and closed the mailbox after a glance, ignoring her funny behavior.
[Staring into the Abyss] is full of too many unknown dangers, and it is never a good choice for him to fight alone.
If you have a friend with an online IQ, you may be able to save your life in a critical moment.
The premise is that the person can be trusted.
Mo Jianchu picked up Ling Yao on his back and quickly shuttled through the jungle that covered the sky and the sun.
It wasn't until he looked at the Burning Sun City from the mountainside that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Sun City, built in the third war of gods and demons, has been 700 years ago.
The wall is built with the hardest red stone, 60 meters high, 55 meters wide at the base, 45 meters wide at the top, there are 115 platforms around the city to watch the enemy, and there are horse roads on all sides.
The reason why people at that time spent a lot of effort to build such a strong fortification.
There is no other reason, just to resist the aftermath of the war between gods and demons.
In front of gods and demons, human beings are like mustard.
Without this solid fortification, I am afraid that mankind will be completely extinct in the long river of history before ushering in the "era of no war".
There is no substitute for the sense of security that Lieyang City gives people. Therefore, it is also one of the few metropolises that combines military, trade, and culture, with a population of up to 9 million.
The bright lights of all colors reflect a brilliant and unique gorgeous scenery in the dark night.
The city of the scorching sun at night is a paradise that is also dreamy and illusory, and even the bright stars in the sky must be avoided by inferiority.
Mo Jianchu walked on the bustling streets, which were lined with a wide variety of exotic playthings.
For example, children like colored paper drums, literati like bagpipe harps, various colors of silk, Luo, silk, satin, brocade, silk and other goods, people are overwhelmed.
The merchant also composed his own song and shouted enthusiastically to passers-by:
Brought the money,
Come buy silk.
know how to live a family,
My husband compliments me on being a good lady.
There are gongs and drums,
It's hilarious.
One or two is not too little,
Buy it for children without crying.
……
"It sounds vulgar, but it's very close to life, and it captures women's desire to shop, which is good."
Mo Jianchu's curiosity came up, he stood aside and secretly learned a few words, and when he left, he was still muttering: "If I really can't leave [Gazing into the Abyss], I will also become a seller, travel around the world, and spend the rest of my life at ease." ”
At this time, there was a "pop" in the distance, and a colorful fireworks bloomed in the sky.
The attracted people looked up one after another, and a beam of dazzling light flew into the sky, and the fuse burned to the end, and suddenly the golden flowers were shining, just like colorful, shining golden flowers, blooming in the air, dazzling and shocking.
"It's so beautiful! So beautiful! I have ever seen such beautiful fireworks in my life, and it is worth coming to the world in vain! It's worth it, it's worth it in this life! ”
"The Wu family really deserves to be a great family, two thousand gold can even have a coming-of-age ceremony so luxurious, just one firework costs a thousand Singapore dollars, right? Tut-tut, that's equivalent to a month's expenses for our family. ”
"Hehe, what's that? In a few days, when the head of the Wu family takes a concubine, the pomp will be several times bigger than the current one! You're just waiting to get over it! ”
"And this? Tell me which girl is so lucky?! ”
"Ah......h I don't know who it is, but I also heard it through the grapevine. ”
"Cut! Eighty percent of this kind of gossip is fake! Believe it! Believe it! ”
It was not only the onlookers who were spoiled, but also Mo Jianchu, who was listening to the gossip.
His eyes grunted, thinking that he had promised Ling Yao that he would send her to the Moon Altar, but he didn't say when he would send her.
It's not impossible to wait for her to wake up and then send it......
Otherwise, if you take half your life, you won't get any benefits, and you will do all the good deeds without leaving a name......
It's better to visit this rich Wu family first, and if you can't keep it, you can still have an errand......
After making up his mind, he immediately carried Ling Yao on his back to the direction where the fireworks were launched.
After a while, a brightly lit and resplendent mansion appeared in the field of vision.
At the top of the vermilion gate, there is a golden silver silk plaque, on which the dragon flies and the phoenix dances and inscribes two big characters "Wu Fu".
Through the open gate, you can see the water pavilion of the building, the winding verandah, and the stone under the stairs into the road.
The courtyard is magnificent, graceful and luxurious, and the garden is splendid, clear and exquisite.
Dozens of servants were busy shuttling among them, serving tea and water to the dignitaries in the courtyard.
As soon as the guards guarding the gate saw the ragged Mo Jianchu coming, they immediately stepped forward to stop him and shouted: "Stop! What are you doing with your stinking food?! ”
Mo Jian looked inside with a blank eye, "Ah, this...... I am a good friend of your second miss of the Wu family, and I heard that she is celebrating her birthday today, so I came to congratulate her. ”
"! Don't think about Meng Laozi! You've seen a lot of stinky old men! If you don't roll, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite! The guard furrowed his thick and long eyebrows, his fat lips turned upward, and he said with disdain on his face.
Looking at him, Mo Jianchu thought that he had come to the pork stall.
This guy is also too rugged, with a fat body, a face full of meat, fluffy hair, dark and greasy skin, and a very typical butcher image.
"Big brother, don't get excited, I've bought all the gifts, if you don't let me in, won't this gift be in vain?" Mo Jianchu smiled innocently.
As soon as he heard that there was a gift, the guard's eyes suddenly lit up.
He quietly observed the surroundings and made sure that no one was paying attention to him, so he said politely: "My eldest lady Wu Jinyu and second lady Wu Xiaoyan both have the appearance of sinking fish and falling geese, and they are embarrassed to be embarrassed by the moon. Therefore, our Wu family has set up a rule that whoever comes to give gifts must be collected by us. Since you are also here to give a gift to the second lady, just leave it to me. If the second lady likes it, maybe she will meet you in person. ”
"Very good! The gift is behind me, big brother, let's take a closer look! Mo Jianchu pouted behind him.
The guard looked behind Mo Jianchu curiously, and because the light was too weak, he noticed that Mo Jianchu was carrying a sleeping woman.
At first glance, it only felt a little familiar, but when I lifted the green bamboo cloak and took a closer look, I almost didn't scare my soul.
"Forehead ghost fire pattern?!"
The guards were arrogant and domineering a moment ago, but now they are like a frightened mouse, trembling and kneeling on the ground, and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy: "The villain doesn't know Mount Tai with his eyes, and he doesn't know that the master is here!" Please forgive your sins! Spare the villain's life! ”
Seeing this scene, Mo Jianchu was also taken aback.
Although he had known for a long time that Ling Yao's status was not low, he had never expected that there would be such a deterrent power, and even a disagreement could determine the point of life and death.
If the Cultists of the World Destroyer know that their revered command is in his hands, he will be hunted down as a hijacker.
When the time comes, he will not be able to wash himself by jumping into the Yellow River.
Thinking of this, Mo Jianchu covered the guard's mouth and pulled him to a secluded dark corner: "Shhh Don't shout! You don't want your life to be here! ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, even if you give me 10,000 guts, you won't dare to disobey the ghost envoy." The guard's head shook like a rattle, for fear that he would slow down and upset the adult.
"Do you know who I am?" Mo Jianchu was stunned for a moment and asked tentatively.
