Summer is coming, and the weather is already getting muggy. The vegetation of each mountain is lush and green, presenting a unique beauty in summer.

"Next destination...... Su Xiao buried his head in looking at the map, "It's almost there, it's less than ten miles away from our location!"

"Really?" Qingkou was overjoyed. I hadn't seen a single living person other than them for so many days, and I was a little excited to hear such news.

......

"Without the token of Yincheng, no one will be allowed to enter!"

He was still a long way from the city gate when he heard the shouts of the soldiers guarding the city gate.

"Why, we're ......" confronted the soldier by a few noble-looking youkai who were loudly theorizing with the soldiers.

"No matter who you are, this is the rule of Yincheng!" the soldier's tone was categorical.

After arguing again and again, the monsters finally lost the upper hand and left Yincheng in despair.

They immediately stepped forward, and Su Xiao cautiously asked, "Big brother, may I ask what is going on in this Yin City, and why are you restricting the entry and exit of outsiders?"

The soldier looked at Su Xiao suspiciously: "What are you asking for? Look at you, you should also be an outsider!"

"To tell you the truth, we are the envoys of the Liuhuang Xin Clan and want to ...... with you Higher exchanges. Su Xiao smiled.

"Oh......" The guards relaxed their vigilance, "We, Yincheng, at this time of year, will hold a grand assembly according to the wishes of the Chinese division in the city, in order to pray for the national teacher to bless Yincheng with good weather and ......."

Su Xiao lowered his head and pondered: "Then, why do you want to restrict outsiders from visiting the city?"

"This ...... It's hard to put into words. In short, when we are holding a meeting, please do not leave your residence, let alone visit the assembly. ”

"Why......" Su Xiao wanted to ask, but the soldier did not continue to answer, but opened the city gate, smiled and said to them: "Please come in, everyone, you must remember what I just said." ”

......

Lanterns are hung everywhere on the street, and red silk hangs down, and it is a joyful scene. In a square, a huge altar stands in the center, and you don't have to think about it to know that it must have been used for sacrifice.

"Look, there's a free inn in front!" Su Xiao's eyes lit up and he exclaimed happily.

......

"Wow, this room is amazing!" walked into the inn, Qingkou exclaimed.

"Yes, and there is no charge!" Su Xiao carefully stroked everything in the room, "Look at this hollow carved wooden window! Look at this stone table! Look at this antique vase! Look at this gentle and comfortable double bed!"

"Double bed?" Qingkou seemed to hear something.

"Oh, the only thing that falls short. Su Xiao shook his head.

"In other words, I'm going to share a bed with you?" Qing Kou suddenly lost his face, as if he had been struck by lightning, and fell to the ground.

“...... I went to the stables. Crimson picked up Qingkou and then went out, leaving Qingkou and Su Xiao at a loss.

Qingkou was silent for ten seconds, and then let out a long sigh.

"You can go next door and sleep with Ziqi. Su Xiao smiled at him.

"Why don't you go?" asked Qingkou rhetorically.

"Master said that it is dangerous to break into a girl's bedroom at night. Because according to the traditional setting, it is generally beaten in a colorful way and then crawls back. Su Xiao said with a serious expression.

"You know!" roared.

......

As night approached, the locals began to get busy. Six robed monks stand on top of the altar, and in a cage beside them are the so-called tributes. And the "tribute" held in the cage is two little children!
