Chapter 8: Sunny and Rainy City

Originally, He Hongxue was going to Xunzhenfang to take a look at the auction price, and then go to a few small sects to finalize the elixir contract. Tissot, driven by spirit stones, was passing through a large city of mortals, and a prosperous scene could be seen through the clouds.

She has rarely gone to the world over the years, and Mr. Billhouse is also a disciple of his subordinates, so I don't know what happened to mortals in the past few decades.

Following this thought, she came down from the clouds, and planned to land directly on the head of the city, but she never thought that she would directly hit a transparent cover, and her bones rolled down.

He Hongxue, the dignified infant powerhouse, rolled on the ground a few times and couldn't get up, and barely looked up to see a few shiny spear heads facing him.

"Who's coming? Get your name in! The heavily armed guards pointed the wall at her, and there was a great momentum to poke it down without saying a word.

He Hongxue fell out of experience, and once he was born and twice cooked: "I have the right to remain silent...... Dr. Zhang! At a glance, she saw the back of the green shirt not far away, and cried out excitedly.

The man turned around and saw that he was stunned for a moment, and then a smile spread to the corners of his eyebrows: "Xiaoxue, what a coincidence." ”

Zhang Mu accompanied He Hongxue to the security center to testify that this person was not of another race, and He Hongxue showed the token of Yuyuntai to confirm the identity of the human monk.

"I'm sorry, I recently received a warning from the Immortal Cultivation Realm about the infestation of the demon race, and the security level in the city has been raised, which has scared the monks." The head of the guard in charge completed the formalities for her, handed him a pass to Sunny Rain City, and thanked Zhang Mu: "Since the tokens are complete and Dr. Zhang has come forward, we will not waste the time of the two of us." Then the guards were called and they were taken to the streets.

He Hongxue asked the guards what was the passport that blocked her, and the guards replied: "My lord hasn't been down to earth for a long time, this is a defensive wall, specially isolated from high spirit and high demon creatures, what is not usually used, it will always be open until the alert is lifted, after all, we are mortals." ”

"Your flying boat will be kept for you according to the procedures, you can pick it up when you leave the city, no storage fee will be charged, by the way, flying is prohibited in the city, I hope you understand." The guard pointed to the muzzle-shaped thing on the head of the city: "Unauthorized flying objects over 1,000 feet in the city will be locked by spirit cannons, this thing hurts to hit people." ”

He Hongxue: ...... I think your tech tree is crooked compared to mine.

Goodbye Zhang Mu, He Hongxue felt that there was something different about him, and he couldn't tell, the most obvious thing was that he had a black cat around his neck, similar to a mink scarf, and he would open his golden eyes again, which was terrifying.

"Why is Dr. Zhang here?" He Hongxue stuffed the pass into the temporary Qiankun bag and kicked her hands on her cuffs, like an uncle who went out for a stroll.

"Visiting an old friend, I practiced medicine here a few years ago, and now I'm back to see it."

He Hongxue liked the way he looked when he spoke: "Are you okay?" Why did you leave by yourself that day and didn't go to Lingxi Valley to check and check.?

"Wasn't you protecting me? Basically uninjured. Zhang Mu said and patted the black cat head that stared at He Hongxue with wide eyes, "Don't stare at others, it's rude." ”

"I have to thank you last time, I heard that it was you who sent me a distress signal to my fellow doorman," He Hongxue's old face turned red and couldn't help scratching his head, "I should ask you to go to Yuyuntai to have a good examination of your body." ”

"Didn't you put that spell on me? I'm fine, but my clothes are ruined, and my little black fur has a few corroded bald spots, and now it's grown. After Zhang Mu finished speaking, the black cat meowed a long way to protest, Zhang Mu took it off his neck, and He Hongxue took it: "My senior brother has a rash when he touches a cat, and I can't raise a cat." ”

The two of them and a cat just walked forward while chatting, the city was bustling and noisy, and the streets and alleys were full of people, as if they were not affected by the demon alarm at all.

"Do you have a good relationship with your teacher?" Zhang Mu saw that his posture of holding the cat was not quite right, and taught him to hold the cat's butt and not slip.

"It's good, after all, the parents in the sect are dead, and we are gone, and we are dependent on each other." He Hongxue carefully took out the cat's tail that was caught in the squeaky nest, and the black cat raised his head and continued to look at him, one person and one cat staring at each other.

It was the first time He Hongxue had been to Sunny Rain City, or the first time she had visited a mortal city of this scale. Back then, she was brought out of a small village by her master, and she didn't have much nostalgia for the mortal world, but now it seems that such a bustling street is still very fresh.

"What time of year is it?" He Hongxue scratched the cat's head, and the black cat closed her eyes comfortably and let her touch it.

"It's approaching Tanabata." Zhang Mu saw that he was happy to touch the cat, and pulled him to sit down in front of the stall.

"I'll open the valley, you can eat it yourself." He Hongxue hurriedly reminded him, but the movements in his hands never stopped.

Zhang Mu smiled, called Xiao Er and ordered a bowl of noodles and a stack of small fish: "I know." ”

Coldly, he received a message from the black cat: "Sir, my head is going bald." ”

"Bear with me." He passed it back, his voice still gentle.

After a while, the noodles and the small fish came up, and the black cat was finally relieved and jumped up to eat. He Hongxue saw that one of them and one cat were eating well, and she also felt that her saliva began to secrete.

"Would you like a bowl?"

He Hongxue thought about it, eating something should not be in the way, and then remembered that Yang Yi gave him Qiankun no money in the world.

Zhang Mu ordered him a bowl of noodles, which is a big deal.

The two of them sucked noodles at one cat and one table, He Hongxue didn't expect that he would have this day.

"Ah...... This bowl of noodles, the boss can earn a few bucks. He Hongxue, who was touching her stomach, let out such an exclamation.

The boss was just behind them, and said: "It's just two or three articles, small profits and quick turnover, Dr. Zhang is free!" ”

"You're really popular." He Hongxue stroked her slightly bulging stomach, the last time it was so bulging, it was filled with beef, which was really less and less valuable.

That being said, when the two left, Zhang Mu still left the food money for the two on the table, and the well-fed black cat returned to Zhang Mu's neck, with its tail wrapped around his chin.

He Hongxue has been opening the valley for decades, and he can't stop opening meat all at once. The two of them walked all the way and ate all the way, He Hongxue's mouth never stopped, and he had the posture of eating all the good things he hadn't eaten when he was a child.

"It's close to Tanabata, it's the same season as we were there." She swallowed a mouthful of rock sugar gourd, said a few words and ate a bite of jujube cake.

"Rock sugar gourds have seeds...... Did you swallow? ”

"Is there one...... I didn't chew ...... carefully."

What is Qixi for, He Hongxue still knows, after all, the female cultivators in the sect are looking forward to this festival, and some bold senior sisters and sisters also write their names to send small things such as sachets to their favorite senior brothers. This year is not counted as the tenth, and there should be no festive atmosphere in the immortal cultivation world, but it is very lively here.

"Beggar, watch the lanterns, put the lanterns. It all starts with a wish. Zhang Mu picked up the colored paper sold on the roadside, and the small paper was printed with natural patterns with flowers, waiting to carry a wish.

Fortunately, the birds above the height of the high-altitude prohibition order will not be locked by the spirit cannon, otherwise it would be a bit disappointing to have a good Tanabata without a magpie to cheer up.

Although the streets are fresh, He Hongxue has not yet reached the level of indulgence, she is going to go to the largest trading house in the city to see if there are any investment projects, so that she can take them to Xunzhen Pavilion to make a transaction.

It's a bit troublesome that she doesn't have a mortal universal currency on her body, if she is in the world of cultivating immortals, she brushes her face and adds Yuyuntai to seal the letter directly, and after a long time, she rarely brings money when she goes out, and there is no hard currency in her hand, and she is always a little unconfident.

"Don't worry, Lord Monk, you always have spirit stones, now Qingyu City is buying spirit stones, you have also seen that the consumption of the defense wall is not small." The shopkeeper of the merchant house welcomed them warmly after seeing the passes.

"Because the cost is quite large, if nothing happens during the Tanabata Festival, the comprehensive defense will be lifted after the festival and the usual basic security check will be resumed." The shopkeeper showed the two of them tea, and Zhang Muxie drank it slowly.

He Hongxue didn't expect that the human world would also be driven by spiritual power, but listening to the boss's description, it seemed to be a little different from their use of spiritual power in the cultivation realm.

"A mortal's body can't withstand the huge flow of spiritual power like a monk, and it can't drive it, so it can only rely on external objects." Zhang Mu put down the teacup in his hand and found that He Hongxue didn't touch the cup of tea, "What's wrong?" ”

"Just now...... Eating too much...... I'm a little ...... Uncomfortable ......"

“……”

Zhang Mu had to take him to the pharmacy to grab the medicine first, and he didn't know if the prescription he prescribed would work for the monk, and when he heard He Hongxue sitting on the chair in the pharmacy humming, he wanted to laugh.

"Bigu has been in the valley for many years, and suddenly overeats, oops...... I was wrong......" She took Zhang Mu's cat to her lap and touched it again and again.

"Sir, my back is bald." The black cat gave Zhang Mu another message.

"Bear with me." Dr. Zhang focused on grasping the medicine and replied gently.

When decocting the medicine, He Hongxue walked around beside her to eliminate food, and asked Zhang Mu to tell her about the things in the world. Relying on her physical discomfort, she completely dominated the black cat, and put the cat on her head like a fool happily.

"Since the war between the immortals and demons a hundred years ago, the human world has inevitably been affected, and mortals are seeking a way to defend themselves." Zhang Mu took a small bench and sat by the fire, fanning the fire for a while, slowly telling the history that was completely different from the immortal cultivation world and closely related.

"People have tried many different methods, used many different power sources, and there are still various schools of technology, and the spiritual power drive in Sunny Rain City is just a branch." The fragrance of medicine slowly overflowed from the medicine jar, filling the entire decoction pharmacy, and the cinnabar mole under Zhang Mu's eyes loomed in the mist.

"People have tried and failed, but they haven't stopped, and some of the techniques have been used elsewhere."

A terrifying thought suddenly popped up in He Hongxue's mind, is there a possibility that the silent blood moon phantom array and the red blood array they encountered on the bank of the Qingshui River, it is not the handle of the demon race, and whether it is possible for the human race to use foreign objects to set up the array.

It has been more than a month since the incident, and she still hasn't understood the purpose of that formation, and the younger brother of the sacrificed teenager has not been found, which makes her a little irritable, and she subconsciously changed the topic.

"How old are you?" He Hongxue threw this question, and she would always step on the strange point.

Zhang Mu's fan hand paused, and asked him rhetorically: "It's going to be the Chinese Valentine's Day, is this going to ask me about my birthday?" ”

He Hongxue almost threw the cat on his head back to him, this dialogue was too weird.

"Sir, I have a stomach ache." The black cat has learned to ask and answer himself: "I know, bear with it." ”
