Feasibility of Mermaids Infiltrating Qilin

Chapter 15 Zhang Family Market

Su Xingze was pulled up by a child.

He had become familiar with the child's schedule over this period of time. The Zhang family was simply inhuman; such a young child had to get up very early every day to go to school.

Fortunately, since there are no lights or other entertainment activities, the child goes to bed early every day. Otherwise, given the child's current wake-up time, he suspects that the child might die suddenly at a young age.

The child wakes up early, and Su Xingze didn't want to wake him up every day, so he specifically told the child not to wake him up, but to remember to take him with him when going out.

Today was no different. In his sleep, the child scooped him up and gently placed him into his newly sewn little handbag.

The small shoulder bag is made of pure cotton, a fabric left to him by his adoptive father, and is lined with several layers of soft cloth.

Once he landed, Su Xingze skillfully grabbed a cotton cloth and covered himself with it.

Su Xingze slept very restlessly. Based on previous experience, the children would have a morning literature class, during which only the teacher's voice could be heard.

He was used to falling asleep to the sound of reading and lecturing, but he didn't know if the child had changed classes today, as it was making a lot of noise.

Despite changing sleeping positions several times, he couldn't escape the pervasive noise. Unable to bear it any longer, Su Xingze flew out of his bag, ready to explode, but froze in mid-air after seeing his surroundings.

Noticing his movement, Zhang Shenglin turned to look at the little merman, reached out and scooped him up onto his shoulder, whispering a reminder: "There are a lot of people, don't wander off."

No, he didn't run away! It was the little Qilin sitting beneath him that ran away!

Su Xingze looked left and right; he had never seen so many people since he came to this world.

He brushed his tail against the child's neck, then his gaze fell on the magicians performing tricks nearby.

"Little Qilin, you didn't go to school today?" Su Xingze knew how studious children were, but he didn't expect this child to skip school and play like a normal kid.

"Hey, where is this place? It's so lively."

This must be a market, judging by its size, it's probably being held in the town.

The little mermaid's tail tickled him a little, but Zhang Shenglin endured it until the tingling sensation subsided before answering, "No classes today, it's my monthly day off. This is Zhang Family Market."

The Zhang family lived here, and their maternal relatives lived around their paternal relatives, forming a village with the Zhang family as the main body.

The Zhang family was xenophobic, but they were powerful enough that there were virtually no bandits or robbers in their territory during that era. In this chaotic time of war, it was a rare peaceful place.

For this reason, many people moved to the vicinity, not daring to approach the Zhang family, and a small town was formed not far from the Zhang family.

Half of the shops in the town belong to the Zhang family, so most people only think that the Zhang family is a prominent family that has been around for many years, and they don't know what business the Zhang family actually does.

The town holds a large market once a month, where merchants from other places come to sell their exotic goods, and there are also performances by wandering martial arts masters.

Because the town was built around the Zhang family, and the Zhang family was the most numerous family members living there, the monthly market eventually became known as the Zhang Family Market.

Su Xingze hadn't seen such a lively scene in a long time. The market was bustling with people, and vendors sold all kinds of snacks and fruits along the street. There were also acrobatic performances by people from other places. Many skills that had been lost in his time were still being passed down here.

"Wow!" Su Xingze watched as an old man used processed wheat straw to quickly weave a lifelike rabbit. The little girl opposite him took the rabbit with satisfaction and hopped away.

Next to the old man, a woman was wielding two swords with great skill and power, making for a very entertaining spectacle.

"Little Qilin!" Su Xingze's eyes lit up with green. "Can you let me turn into a human somewhere where no one's around?"

He was no longer content to be an unknown bystander; how could he not take a good look around such a bustling market?

The child obediently left the bustling market and looked for a quiet place. Su Xingze began searching through the system.

Zhangjia Market is different from Zhangjia Village. There are too many ordinary people here. When you stick close to a child, the pollution on his body will be purified by the auspicious aura of the Qilin, so it will not affect others.

But staying too far away won't work. If he doesn't want Zhangjia Market to turn into Zhangjia Ghost Market today, Su Xingze needs to find a way to control the pollution first.

He happened to be browsing the online store recently and saw an item that was suitable for his current situation.

"Shell," an auxiliary item specifically developed for evil gods.

It is said that dozens of materials with pure divine power were used and incorporated into the body to isolate, suppress, and filter all dark, filthy, and evil attributes, and even strange and eerie polluting powers are within the limits.

The product is good, but it has some minor flaws.

First, the 'shell' is extremely expensive; a single date-sized shell costs 10,000 points. Second, because the user's life form is different from that of a human, after fusing with the shell, the user can possess a flesh-and-blood body similar to that of a human.

The materials used for the 'shell' are expensive and rare, and the flesh and blood body transformed after fusing with the 'shell' is even more delicate, sensitive, and has a high pain sensitivity, making it easy to get injured.

Su Xingze used his system privileges to look up the origins of the 'shell' and discovered a piece of gossip.

The creator of the 'shell' was the supreme sun god of a certain world. He created the 'shell' because his lover was an extraterrestrial evil god.

The two gods once experienced a magnificent love epic that lasted for ten thousand years. The 'shell' was created by the sun god so that his lover could go on honeymoons with him in various worlds like an ordinary person. Therefore, the body transformed from the 'shell' still carries some of the sun god's little tricks.

There are advantages to being expensive. This 'shell' not only allows him to transform into a human without any flaws, but it also does not affect his use of power. However, he must be careful not to exceed the limit, otherwise the shell will not be able to completely filter out the polluted energy carried by his power.

According to the instruction manual, the maximum force that the 'shell', about the size of a date pit, can filter is limited to creating an ice-covered area with a diameter of one meter.

After spending 10,000 points to buy the 'shell', Su Xingze couldn't wait to merge with the 'shell' and transform into human form.

His human form remained unchanged. He reached out and grasped the child's hand. Previously, his body temperature had an eerie, unique coolness, but now it was only slightly lower than the child's.

Su Xingze circled around in front of the child: "Little Qilin, have I changed at all compared to before?"

The child quietly looked at the little mermaid who had transformed into human form. The little mermaid's hand that had just held his was delicate and soft, completely different from his scarred hand. The cotton-soft hand let go, and the child instinctively reached out to grab it.

"nice."

The little mermaid in front of him was very beautiful, and she had always been beautiful, but she was even more beautiful today, giving him a feeling that she was closer to him.

Su Xingze couldn't help but laugh at the child's praise, and spent 10 points to buy a bamboo robe to wear. Thinking that few people nowadays knew about albinism, and to avoid being mistaken for a monster, he also bought a cloak to cover his overly conspicuous white hair, and added an ignore spell to himself.

After the child starts a course, the system will automatically reward him with 1,000 points for each course he learns. He takes over the role of the system, and the learning reward points are issued separately to him and the child.

The child is naturally intelligent, a genius, and his progress in learning math and physics is astonishing. He took his first test in just two days and received a lot of reward points because of his excellent performance.

However, the child had only been taking the course for a short time, and had only saved a little over 10,000 yuan in the past two days. After buying the shell, Su Xingze didn't have much left.

"Let's go, let's go to the market!"

Su Xingze grabbed the child's hand and ran towards the market.

At the same time, he put the system's built-in surveillance cameras in and out, using them as their personal cameras.

This kind of retro-style bustling market is a rare sight, and these are precious memories to cherish. Take pictures of it all.
