The stars are twinkling, the moon is bright in the sky, the ancient villages and towns are dressed in festive costumes, and the streets and alleys are filled with bustling scenes.

Vendors have set up a wide variety of stalls along the street, and the aroma of various local specialties is wafting from the air. From golden and crispy fried pork to sweet and delicious red bean rice cake soup, every one of them can whet people's appetite.

Gu Ning walked into the crowd, laughing as she walked, as if she had returned to the days when she was in college. She went to the night market with her roommates, the lights were flickering, the shadows of people were everywhere, and she suddenly felt her eyes moist and her nose was a little sore and uncomfortable.

She didn't know why she came to this place, but she hadn't felt at ease for a single day since she arrived. This world was cruel, and the lives of ordinary people were like ants, being crushed to pieces, just like He Mei and He Mei's mother.

The life of an immortal cultivator is like a larger ant. Everyone works hard and conscientiously just to save their lives. In just less than a year, Gu Ning has been on the line between life and death many times, but fortunately he was able to survive every time.

Sniffing, Gu Ning shook his head to get rid of the thoughts in his mind.

Now that it has come, just accept it. God will have his own arrangements.

"I want to eat candied haws!" Gu Ning pulled Ye Xiaoshu's sleeve, "Senior sister, buy some for me!"

Ye Xiaoshu had no choice but to throw a purse from the mustard seed bag to Gu Ning, and scolded him with a smile: "Spend sparingly, I don't have much left."

So Gu Ning jumped into the crowd like a fish into water.

"Boss, give me one."

"Boss, I want this too."

"Boss, what is this? Give me one."

Ye Xiaoshu looked at Gu Ning tenderly, "This girl looks like she has never eaten anything good."

"Junior sister has been begging all the way here, she must have suffered a lot." Ye Shuming scratched his head innocently, "We should be nicer to Junior sister."

Meng Jia looked at Gu Ning who was jumping up and down, and sighed faintly, "Yes, the little apprentice sister is only ten years old. If she were an ordinary citizen, she would be the treasure of the family by now."

But once you enter the door of cultivating immortals, you have to fight against heaven and fate, so leisure time is simply a luxury.

Gu Ning jumped back, but found that none of his senior brothers and sisters had caught up, so he waved his hand happily, "Hurry up, hurry up, I found out that the fox sacrifice ceremony is tonight at midnight, not tomorrow at all."

Play is play, jokes are jokes, but serious matters cannot be joked about.

Gu Ning bought something from someone, and the person told Gu Ning about it with a smile.

"Oh, little girl, I heard you came here from other places because of the reputation of the fox. Our village's fox worship ceremony will be held at midnight tonight in the town's shrine." The old man said happily, "You should go quickly, you can get a little bit of blessing."

"Tonight at midnight?" Ye Shuming shouted, "That bastard lied to us."

Gu Ning smiled, "We are both thousand-year-old foxes, who would trust who?"

"Third Senior Sister, quickly inform Xiao Huanhuan and the others." Gu Ning thought for a moment and said to Ye Xiaoshu, "Don't miss out on free thugs."

Ye Xiaoshu, who was originally unhappy, suddenly relaxed his brows and sent a spiritual message: See you at the shrine at midnight tonight for the fox sacrifice ceremony.

Xiao Huanhuan was stunned by just a few words.

"No no no."

What does it mean?

Xiao Huanhuan pointed at her spiritual message.

"Cuckoo."

How did they know?

Xiao Huanhuan was so angry that she jumped up and down.

"Big sister, let's go take a look first." Li Xiaoxiao raised a professional fake smile, "Gu Ning is the elder sister of the little sister after all, she won't joke about such things."

Zhu Rong also echoed, "Let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed Xiao Huanhuan out, ignoring all the people around who were trying to sell them products.

I should have left such a noisy environment long ago. It's completely useless and I just get covered in dust for nothing.

Meanwhile, Gu Ning and his three companions were shopping as they walked, and finally arrived at the shrine at the end of the hour of Hai.

At first glance, there were huge crowds of people, with heads pressing against each other, and it was impossible to squeeze in at all.

"Peanuts and melon seeds snacks, do you need any?" Just as he was stunned, a child ran over to Gu Ning. His eyes lit up when he saw the food in Gu Ning's hand, and he came closer eagerly.

Gu Ning curved his eyebrows, took out his purse, and his face fell instantly, "Oh, no money."

Ye Xiaoshu: ...

Well, this little bit of property has been squandered.

The reliable senior brother took out a few pieces of silver from his pocket and handed them to the child, "I bought it, go and play."

The child took two steps out in a hopping manner, then suddenly stopped. He turned around and saw the four people still standing on tiptoe to look around. He said, "Brother and sister are here to watch the fox sacrifice ceremony, too, right?"

"Yeah, yeah!" Gu Ning nodded rapidly, "But it seems I can't get in."

The child thought for a while and said, "I know there is a place to go backstage, but my mother won't let me bring anyone in..."

He looked conflicted.

Gu Ning immediately threw all the toys in his hand into the child's hands, grabbed Meng Jia's purse, and then stared at him eagerly, "Take us there, little brother, your brother and sister will treat you to candy."

The child looked at the things in his hand, especially the bulging purse, and gritted his teeth, "Okay, then follow me."

"okay."

"But you must not disturb my mother. She is sick and can't be angry." The child kept nagging and warned. Gu Ning nodded "bang bang bang", "Don't worry, don't worry."

After groping around for a long time, the four of them were led by the child under a huge cherry tree.

The cherry blossom trees at night seem to be covered with a mysterious veil, blending into the stars and the moonlight, showing a different style and charm. The bright moonlight pours down, penetrates the dense branches and leaves, and gently sprinkles on the cherry blossoms, making the originally pink flowers appear silvery and elegant, as if inlaid with gems of the moon's glory.

The children put their hands on the trunk, and suddenly, the huge cherry trees were decorated with dazzling splendor. Their branches were hung with colorful paper lanterns, like a dreamy galaxy pouring down to the world.

"Let's go." Under the gorgeous lights, the child waved at them.

Gu Ning looked at the three of them and they all had the answer.

"Little vixen." When the child slipped in, his fluffy fox ears were revealed uncontrollably.

The four of them pretended not to see anything and followed him in.

On the other side, Xiao Huanhuan and the other two were staring at the crowded scene in amazement, standing there in a daze.

"How...how do we get in?" Li Xiaoxiao held her forehead helplessly, "Where are the people from Mingyue Sect? Where did they go?"

“Mmmmm, Mmmmm…” Xiao Huanhuan stomped her feet and walked around in a circle in frustration.

After walking around in a circle for a long time, I finally saw the mark of Mingyue Sect left on a cherry tree.

Two words that express the meaning briefly.

"Entrance."

It's obviously Ye Xiaoshu's work.

Xiao Huanhuan was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.

"Mmmmm, Mmmmm, Mmmmm!"

"Okay, Senior Sister, we really don't understand." Li Xiaoxiao waved her hands to arrange the formation and comforted her, "Senior Sister, let's not rush."
