Chapter XXV
"Shuo Ye, where are we going?"
After leaving Dongfang Xiong and the others, the three of them walked aimlessly on the street.
Shuo Ye didn't say a word, always with a cold face, and walked in the front with great strides, his long silver hair reflecting the soft light in the light.
Xiao He followed behind with his arms crossed, looking at ease and contented, as if he had long been used to it. In the end, Xiao He finally couldn't help it and asked.
The answer was the deathly silence he had anticipated.
Xiao He understood that the way she looked was definitely not because she met Dongfang Xiong, but because Dongfang Xiong casually put that person's name on his lips.
Although they have only known each other for a short time, Xiao He has seen Shuoye's violent temper and arrogant personality a few times. Other than that, she doesn't seem to allow anyone other than herself and Lingyi to call Chonghua's name.
In desperation, Xiao He had no choice but to follow behind and go shopping on the street.
After wandering around aimlessly for a long time, Shuoye's expression finally relaxed a little and returned to some normal.
She searched for a few places, let Lingyi stay outside, dragged Xiao He to the supermarket, stood in front of the snack cabinet with her arms crossed and selected a lot of snacks, Xiao He, who was pushing the shopping cart, followed behind in embarrassment, with a helpless face.
In the eyes of others, that scene is like a couple making a little awkward, which is quite warm.
"I'm so upset, it's a *****!"
Souring and digging through a bucket of vanilla-flavored ice cream, Shuo Ye muttered indistinctly as he surrounded himself with a few empty snack bags.
Xiao He, who was sitting next to her and drinking canned beer, was amused: "Where did you come up with so many novel curse words?"
Shuo Ye rolled his black and white eyes: "You care about me." β
Xiao He shrugged his shoulders and said that it didn't matter. Then he turned around and touched Lingyi, who was also holding a can of beer, and raised his head to take a big sip.
Shuo Ye stretched out his hand: "Give it to me." β
Xiao He was stunned: "What for you?"
Shuo Ye rolled his eyes: "Wine!"
Xiao He snorted, almost squirting, and then patted Shuo Ye's head softly: "What kind of wine do children drink." β
Shuo Ye stomped his feet angrily: "I'm not a child!
Xiao He Yiran took a sip of smugly: "I know, I still won't give you a drink." β
Shuo Ye was curious: "Why?"
"Give a girl a drink, not a gentleman. β
Shuo Ye's face was slightly red, and he was slightly speechless, and then he pretended to be fierce: "Hmph, the old lady is not rare!"
"Oh. β
Xiao He continued to take a bite with an expressionless face.
Seeing Xiao He's reaction like this, Shuo Ye was angry. How could he be so calm?
"Lord Shuoye, when are we going back to Shushan?" asked Lingyi.
Shuo Yepi sat down without smiling and continued to eat potato chips: "I changed my mind and won't go back to Shushan." β
Lingyi was curious: "Then go directly to Kunlun Wuji Peak?"
Shuo Ye responded, and then said with a sneer: "But I have to wait until the old lady is cool before going." β
Xiao He squirted out a sip of beer: "What?!"
Shuo Ye turned his head, looked at Xiao He, and repeated word by word: "I said, I'll go when I'm refreshed." β
Ling Yi was not surprised when she heard this, and nodded with a slight smile: "It's time to go, I haven't seen Lord Baiye and Miss Mu for a long time." β
"Lingyi, I've said it a few times, he's no longer an elder of Jair, don't call him an adult. He is now ....... just a mortal. β
Reminder of the night. Speaking of mortals, Shuo Ye also glanced at Xiao He.
Lingyi smiled and nodded in agreement.
It turned out to be a visit to a friend for a long time. Xiao He rubbed off the can he had drunk in his hand and said, "When will you leave?"
Shuo Ye smiled mysteriously and brightly: "Now." β
With that, she stood up and casually opened the back door of the supermarket supply next to her.
Bright sound and colorful lights mixed with the joy of the crowd came from inside the door very abruptly, and colorful xenon lamps and fireworks and nitrogen to add to the lively atmosphere rushed out of the door, and the eyes and cheeks of the night were illuminated.
The door is obviously a nightclub that sings every night.
Xiao He was dumbfounded, how could this- the back door of the supermarket-
Lingyi leaned over to him at the right time and coughed: "Divine Technique." Later you will too. β
Xiao He remembered Doraemon's arbitrary door.
"Ahh As if she suddenly remembered something, Lingyi rolled up her sleeves, revealing her strong arm and a mysterious tattoo on her arm.
With a flick of his other hand on his arm, the mysterious-looking tattoo rippled strangely and then vanished.
"With these, it's not convenient to go in. Lingyi said with a smile.
As soon as the three of them walked in, the door disappeared without a trace.
The deafening and rhythmic music shook Xiao He's internal organs. The crowd around was shoulder to shoulder, bustling, and there was a large area of black pressing. Overhead, the dazzling suspended spherical headlights rotate rapidly, producing a rapidly changing and intense light, making the crowd of people shaking their heads and bodies wildly and the scene of jubilant jumping as if they were fast-moving silhouette photos.
On the huge dance floor, all kinds of people clinged to each other's bodies, swaying their long hair, indulging their passions, shouting, whistling, the smell of fragrance, the smell of wine, the smell of cigarettes, and the smell of hormones mixed together, making Xiao He, who was still on the cold street just now, feel like a world away.
The demons are dancing.
Xiao He only had these four words in his mind.
A scantily clad waitress carrying a tray passed through the crowd and flashed past Xiao He's side. Xiao He's gaze was tightly glued to the waitress from the moment she appeared, not because of how beautiful she was, or how good her figure was, but because the hostess was on her neck, and it was a cat's head!
Shocked, Xiao He looked around, and only then did he carefully take a look at the faint crowd - there are very few "people" in the real sense here!
As far as the eye could see, there were strange creaturesβhalf-human, half-bear, grim-eyed guards with hands behind their backs and wireless headphones, a beautiful woman with a mouth on the back of her head and a long scarlet tongue to tease the lizard-faced man beside her, a large graceful jellyfish with its mouthparts agitated with small jellyfish holding a cup containing a glimmering jellyfish, andβ
Xiao He's gaze hurriedly skimmed and stopped at a tall and beautiful woman in the center of the dance floor.
She just stood there, enough to catch everyone's attention.
With long black hair and waist-length hair, a graceful figure standing slim, his eyes are gentle like water, affectionate and sad, looking directly at Xiao He. The face of the moon is enough to steal any man's heart in an instant.
In the noisy crowd, she seems to be in a separate space, unaffected by the noise around her. Looking back at the restless ghost beside her, she suddenly felt that the woman in front of her was like a pure white lotus flower in the dark mud, a posthumous and independent ancient saint.
Xiao He looked at her for three seconds, the woman smiled, Xiao He blushed, then looked away and followed Lingyi to continue walking.
It doesn't seem to be all monsters, Xiao He thought to himself.
"What kind of place is this?" When he walked to the corridor outside the dance floor, when the music was quieter, Xiao He couldn't help but ask Shuo Ye.
Shuo Ye chuckled: "Haven't you been to a nightclub?"
Xiao He smashed his mouth and raised his eyebrows: "It's all a monster's nightclub, I really haven't been here." β
Lingyi, who has always been in charge of explaining the work, came up again: "Xiao Xiaoyou, this is the first independent area. β
"First Independence?"
"Yes, First Independence. Lingyi nodded and repeated.
"The First Independent Zone, also known as the 'Tsukimi City', is a paradise that was established more than 1,000 years ago. At that time, the second immortal and demon war broke out in the fairy world, and many scattered immortal demon cultivators who advocated peace and escaped the war came to the North Stygian Sea under this forest hill, and found a small village called Yuejian, so they settled down.
Later, a world war broke out in the mortal world, and Tsukimi Village also absorbed many mortal forces in distress. Since then, Tsukimi Village has grown and attracted all kinds of people to live there, and it has become a city that has become highly sought after. It is called an independence zone because it is a peaceful zone that is independent of world strife. Due to the large number of people, Zhongzhou has established three other independent districts.
The Independent Zone believes in strict rules of the Independent Zone, that is, anyone who comes to the Independent Zone, whether it is an immortal, a demon, a human, a demon, a ghost, or a monster, must hide his true identity, cannot use spells, and cannot fight, otherwise he will be expelled from the Independent Zone forever.
These four independent districts have been in operation for 100 years and have been in peace with each other. The independent zone is the default international and interboundary neutral location in Zhongzhou, and the new immortal realm cannot interfere in the management, so it will turn a blind eye. Uh........ most people come here to escape the distractions of the outside world, or to drink, to play, to gamble, to do business, to exchange information. Lingyi tilted her head and said as she thought.
"The Fourth Independence District has the largest underground black market in Midstate, and the most famous taverns.
By the way, although the New Immortal Realm doesn't care about it on the surface, there are actually many Jiuyi spies here to spy on information. There are also other forces that are ready to move, all of which are sheltered and lurking in the independent zone. Although we all have to hide our true identities in the Independence Zone, and no one recognizes anyone, there is an undercurrent beneath the calm surface here, and the water is no shallower than anywhere else........."
