To change sex at will. "
Hu Jiu's eyes lit up for a moment, "Really?"
Xu Yan nodded: "You haven't answered my question yet."
"Well, I didn't think about it. I just felt that I was the one who caused the disaster, and I will accept any result."
"You have always been like this. You accept what happens when things come, and you never think of a way to solve them."
"Uh..." Hu Jiu frowned, wondering when did Shenjun know him so well?Why does he always feel that this god is fake?
"I'm real." Xu Yan saw through Hu Jiu's conjecture at a glance, frowned and said: "The best way is to pay off the crime. A goblin appeared at the foot of Wusutag Mountain recently, and the emperor of the human world repeatedly played It's also a headache to make Hongzhen feel bad."
"There are so many capable people in the demon world, how can you still refuse to subdue a goblin?"
Xu Yan shook her head: "You will know when you go."
"God Lord..."
"Ok?"
Xu Yan looked at Hu Jiu, and Hu Jiu's face suddenly became agitated. He pulled his sleeve and said, "Shenjun, are you a fake? I'm the one who even gives the demon emperor a headache. I'm only less than three hundred years old." , isn’t it that I’m a little fox who is less than four hundred years old, do you think I can do it?”
Xu Yan couldn't help being amused by Hu Jiu's bitter face, "How will you know if you don't try it? As long as you think about it, don't forget, you just said it yourself."
Hu Jiu clutched her hands, with a bitter expression on her face: "I...I'd better go and report it to the Demon Emperor first."
"I will go and talk to him personally."
Co-author Shenjun does not intend to give him other choices.Hu Jiu struggled to look at the bottomless black abyss, as if she would be sucked in just by looking at it.He was startled, and hurriedly said: "Shenjun, I'm afraid, what if I die?"
"Don't worry, even if you die, I will chase after you all over the world, and I will chase your soul back."
Hu Jiu looked at Xu Yan in surprise, the joke that he didn't want to joke just now was not funny at all, it even made his eyes heat up, and he felt like crying.Even though Xu Yan knew that what Xu Yan said was a joke, it turns out that there are people in this world who think about him, and people who go all over the world to find him, and this is how it feels.
Hu Jiu gradually clenched her fists, her eyes changed from flickering to firm: "Shen Jun, I will try my best to come back alive."
"You can't come back alone, you have to bring that goblin back, and you have to be alive."
Hu Jiu trembled all over, trying not to let herself tremble in fear, "I, I will try my best."
"Go."
Hu Jiu looked at the dark hole, and took two steps forward tremblingly. The invisible suffocation emanating from the hole made his scalp numb.
"and many more."
Hu Jiu took a big step back in an instant, and asked anxiously, "Can I..."
"this."
Hu Jiu stopped talking, and saw a gleaming red whip appearing in Xu Yan's hands.
"It's called the Fire Spirit Whip, and it's... an ancient artifact. Let me lend it to you for now, it can protect you somewhat."
"Fire Spirit Whip." Hu Jiu's eyes widened. This Fire Spirit Whip was three feet long. The head of the whip was wrapped with black silk, and the feathers at the end were as bright as a phoenix's tail.Less than half a foot away, Hu Jiu could clearly feel the mighty divine power coming from the fire whip.
And he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that he was so familiar with the Fire Spirit Whip, was it just because they were all fire elements?But Shenjun really wanted to lend him the Fire Spirit Whip?This is an ancient thing!
Hu Jiu moved her fingers, but retracted her back fiercely, abruptly averting her eyes from the Fire Spirit Whip: "Shenjun, the Fire Spirit Whip is a divine weapon, I... I'm afraid I won't be able to use it."
Xu Yan looked at the Fire Whip, with deep memory in his eyes, "The Fire Whip is not considered a divine weapon, it is made of the skin of an ancient fire snake and phoenix feathers, half a monster and half a god."
"But even so, it is also an ancient thing, and it needs powerful divine power to control it. How can I do it?"
"I gave it to you, you can use it, take it." Xu Yan took Hu Jiu's hand and put the Huo Ling whip on Hu Jiu's hand. After a long pause, Xu Yan let go. "Remember, don't lose it, if you lose it, don't come back."
Hu Jiu felt that the Huo Ling Whip did not reject him!The ancient artifacts are all spiritual objects, and the artifacts with high divine power can choose their own owner. Unexpectedly, he can also get the ancient artifacts now!If Changying knew about it, how envious he would be!Hu Jiu was ecstatic: "Shenjun, don't worry, I won't lose the Fire Spirit Whip even if I lose it myself, thank you, Shenjun!"
"Hu Jiu, I only give you five days. If you don't catch the demon within five days, then accept the judgment of the demon world honestly."
"I will try my best to come back within five days... Hey, but I don't know the way, and Nether Mountain is far away from Jinwei Palace."
"Don't worry, I will personally go and bring you back then." Xu Yan put his hand on Hu Jiu's shoulder and scratched hard. "Be careful."
Hu Jiu stretched out his hand to hold Xu Yan's hand, Xu Yan's eyes flickered, and he wanted to pull it back, but was held back by Hu Jiu. "Shenjun, you are the best person I have ever met. The most fortunate thing for me is to come to Changbai and meet you. Thank you for helping me. Thank you for everything."
Xu Yan felt his heart beating rapidly, he quickly withdrew his hand, turned his body sideways, mobilized his inner breath, and suppressed the vibration in his heart. "Don't waste time, let's go."
"Oh..." Hu Jiu took two steps, then suddenly turned around and said, "Shen Jun, Jun Lan is still being imprisoned by the Demon Emperor, can you let her out, after all... ah!"
Before Hu Jiu finished speaking, Xu Yan pushed him. Hu Jiu let out a loud cry, and was swallowed by the pitch-black vortex uncontrollably. As the black vortex disappeared, Hu Jiu's cry gradually disappeared. here.
"Feng Junlan? Hmph."
Naturally, she will be let go, but is it possible to keep her dangling by your side?If it wasn't for Feng Junlan, he might still be at the top of Changbai right now.
The two little birds of the Feng family really look alike, as expected of master and apprentice, 10 years ago, it was Feng Ling who was pestering you, now Feng Ling is staying in the South China Sea, and finally this little blue bird came out again.
Hu Jiu is different from Feng Jue. Feng Jue grew up by his side since he was born, and all his thoughts and behaviors are guided by him. He, I don't know what Hu Jiu likes and what he likes to do?To him, Hu Jiu was so familiar, but still so strange.
In this life, he originally wanted Hu Jiuping to live an ordinary life. He would not have any intersection with him, would not get entangled with him, and would not let him remember everything in the past, so that he could live in peace, and the three worlds It was too peaceful.But Feng Junlan's sudden appearance made Xu Yan realize that if he let Hu Jiu go, what would happen to him?He was deliberately indifferent to him and made things difficult for him, just to keep Hu Jiu away from him, so that both of them would be fine, but he forgot that Hu Jiu is not Feng'er, no matter what he does, Feng'er will never leave him Abandon, but this person is Hu Jiu, he will really leave him.
That's right, he is very selfish, relying on Feng's absolute respect for him, he unscrupulously restricts all his actions, arbitrarily decides his life and death, changes his choices arbitrarily, and leaves him whenever he wants.
But there is only one Fengjue in the world.
5000 years ago, when Feng'er disappeared before his eyes, facing the tens of thousands of gods in Youming Mountain, he suddenly felt huge and boundless fear.That fear swallowed him, making him think that in the next tens of millions of years, he would walk alone alone.
He had never been so afraid, even when the ancient gods fell, he had never felt such barren fear.Because Feng'er was gone, the Feng'er who had been with him was gone.
Now he's alive, he's not gone.
Xu Yan snorted, no matter it was Feng'er or Hu Jiu, he wanted to completely grasp it.Suddenly, there was a pain in the center of his brow, Xu Yan looked back in a daze, and saw the sound of thunder suddenly came from the sky.The blue sky and the day are thunderous.
"What? Are you dissatisfied?" Xu Yan looked up at the sky, eyes full of obstinacy: "This is the destiny. Although you are both a true god, you have to follow the destiny. Are you afraid? In fact, Di Kun and I are the same. You So what if you try your best to defeat Di Kun? Di Xian, you have already fallen, and you and the gods have exhausted everything to divide the three realms, but you never thought that I would appear. Do you regret it? Haha..."
Xu Yan's expression turned cold in an instant, he covered his heart, there was a dull pain there, hidden deep in the spiritual sea was the unstoppable change of the Three Realms.After a long while, he let out a long sigh, suppressed the almost mad look in his eyes, and waved his hand, the thunder suddenly stopped.After a pause, he suddenly smiled wryly, and red threads appeared in his eyes.
"You can't fight the destiny, how can I go against the sky?"
However, Hu Jiu is not Feng'er yet.
At least not yet, as long as Hu Jiu can never become Feng'er, then he doesn't need to worry so much.Xu Yan stretched out his hand to touch the blood bead between his brows, and the corner of his mouth curled up. He raised his eyes to the sky, and there was even a look of cruel despair in his eyes.
As long as his Feng'er is still there, what does the survival of the Three Realms have to do with him!
Yes, I am a true God, but I am a God who is more selfish than anyone else!
Xu Yan turned her head and went back the same way, took two steps, but stopped suddenly.
Not far in front of him, Bai Yan stood there quietly.
A trace of panic and murderous intent flashed across Xu Yan's expression, as if he was worried that the secret would be exposed, he looked at Bai Yan from afar, calmed down, and asked, "When did you come?"
Bai Yan looked shocked, shocked by the unconcealable killing intent in Xu Yan's eyes, he stood there blankly, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Who are you?"
Xu Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, and walked towards Bai Yan: "Who do you think I am?"
Bai Yan backed away subconsciously. At this moment, he suddenly felt that the Xu Yan in front of him was extremely terrifying. This person was not the Xu Yan he knew, it was not the person he had seen countless times in his dreams, it was not the person he could never forget. that person.
Fighting against the destiny and ignoring the gods, who is he?
When Bai Yan saw Xu Yan's hand extending towards him, he opened his eyes and wanted to block it, but he was easily attracted by the silver-white divine light in Xu Yan's palm, and his brain gradually escaped his control.
"I'm sorry, you can't know this. You died because of me 10 years ago, and now I can't let you get hurt any more because of me." Xu Yan said, and Bai Yan's eyes were dull, with strands of silvery white The luster from his eyes was sucked into Xu Yan's palm, and Xu Yan retracted her hand, crushing the strand of white silk into her palm.
Bai Yan's expression flickered, he seemed startled when he saw Xu Yan who was so close.
"Just arrived." Bai Yan frowned, and said again: "I have been waiting for you for a long time at the top of Changbai, but you haven't come back yet, so I had no choice but to come here by myself."
Bai Yan walked over and asked expressionlessly: "What's the matter with the thunder just now? Was it aimed at you?"
"No." Xu Yan replied coldly, "Go back, have you been to the demon world before?"
Bai Yan followed behind Xu Yan and said, "I haven't been here before, my father doesn't really allow me to go out of the mountain gate."
"Oh, he is also worried about you."
"What's there to worry about?" Bai Yan pouted, "I heard that Hu Jiu got into trouble in the demon world?"
"Who did you listen to?" Xu Yan once hinted to Hongzhen, don't make it public in advance, could it be that he is so bold?
"When I came here just now, I accidentally heard two foxes talking, and that's how I found out."
"Two foxes?"
Bai Yan casually plucked a small milky-white flower the size of a fingernail from the ground, pinched it on his fingertips, and played with it, "That's right, it's Hu Jiu's father."
"It's him,"
"Do you want to seek justice for Hu Jiu? It is said that Hu Jiu's situation in Qingqiu has always been quite difficult."
Xu Yan shook his head and said, "This is his own business. If he can't even handle this trivial matter well, then he is not qualified to be a nine-tailed Firefox."
"There will be opportunities in the future to deal with Qingqiu's affairs, but it is really difficult for him to subdue a ten thousand-year-old monster in five days."
Xu Yan suddenly stopped, he turned to Bai Yan, and looked at Bai Yan with a very stern gaze: "Bai Yan, I indulge you because I have old friends with Shuyin, but it doesn't mean that you can Do whatever you want in front of me, do you understand?"
Bai Yan has been here for a long time, even before Hu Jiu left, he didn't even realize that even though Bai Yan is only five thousand years old now, he still can't control him much, just now he just drew Bai Yan If there were more words I heard from myself, Bai Yan would definitely notice it.
Even if he can't recover his real body, with Bai Yan's current strength, it's only a matter of time before he wants to investigate.He couldn't give him the slightest chance.If the person who appeared just now was not Bai Yan, Xu Yan would really want to kill him.
Bai Yan shook his hands, and the flower in his hand fell to the ground. His throat rolled involuntarily, and he said, "It's you who didn't discover me."
Xu Yan turned her head and said calmly: "This kind of thing is only this time, and it will not be an example."
Bai Yan stood there for a while, silently crushing the fallen white flower into the soil with his toes, with broken affection in his eyes, he lifted his heels up.
Jinwei Palace, the back hall of the Hall of Eternal Life.
"Shenjun, Hongzhen is very embarrassed by your doing so."
"Just give him five days. When he comes back, it's up to you." At this moment, Xu Yan was sitting at the head, leisurely sipping the top-grade tea specially prepared for him by the Demon Emperor.
Bai Yan sat opposite Hong Zhen, because many of these things had nothing to do with Bai Yan, so Bai Yan just sat quietly and drank tea.
Hongzhen sighed helplessly, "You agreed, it's really only five days, and it's five days in the human world."
"Correct."
The Yaohuang took a sip of tea, calmed himself down, and said: "Gu Jian has already reported to me what happened just now, and I have sent someone to release Hu Jingting. Hu Meier's punishment is still a stick away. The incense time is over, oh yes, Hu Rong, the patriarch of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, asks to see you."
Xu Yan blew on the tea noodles and said, "Is this gentleman able to see whoever he wants?"
"I'll send someone to turn him down right now." The Demon Emperor glanced at Bai Yan who was opposite him, thinking that it was enough for him to suffer from being refuted by Xu Yan, the majestic Demon Emperor. Immortal face, what a shame.
"By the way, Shenjun, how will the Feng Clan people deal with it?"
"Where did you send it back? Do you want me to send it in person?"
"Yes, Hongzhen will send someone to send Princess Fengxiao back to Phoenix Mountain in the South China Sea." The Demon Emperor suddenly felt like he wanted to wipe off his sweat. What happened to the Shenjun, every word he said revealed his dissatisfaction with him.These days he has served with all his heart, how could he still get such a result!
In the final analysis, it was because of Hu Jiu, but the disaster was caused by Hu Jiu himself, and it has nothing to do with him!The Demon Emperor was very aggrieved, thinking to himself, it really is the first rank of the official who crushes people to death, who would dare to sit on top of him back then?
Bai Yan put down the tea bowl suddenly and said, "Shenjun, Bai Yan has a proposal."
"Say."
"Hu Jiu is wearing a sinful body. It is really against the rules to go away without authorization, but since it is guaranteed by you, there is no need to worry about Hu Jiu going away. But in order to make the Demon Emperor feel at ease, why don't we watch it here? Hu Jiu's whereabouts along the way? Five days in the human world, but in the blink of an eye."
Xu Yan looked at the Demon Emperor: "Hongzhen, what do you think?"
"I..." The Demon Emperor couldn't understand whether Xu Yan wanted to see it or not, Xu Yan was expressionless, and he couldn't see what Xu Yan meant, which made him very entangled, "Then... let's take a look?"
Xu Yan said: "Let's see."
The Demon Emperor breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Yan got a little water on his fingertips, and shot the water drop into the air. The water drop suddenly turned into a water mirror as big as an adult's arms around him. At the same time, Hu Jiu, dressed in red, His figure appeared in the water mirror.
Bai Yan saw that Hu Jiu was holding a fiery red whip in his hand, and was walking and watching curiously. Bai Yan's eyes widened, and he turned to look at Xu Yan.
However, at this time, the Demon Emperor suddenly stood up, staring at the water mirror, and the fist clenched by his side was bulging with force: "He went to Wusutag!"
☆, Usutag
When Hu Jiu arrived in Wusutag, the sky was still dark and the sun had just risen.The scenery here is quite amazing. If he is free on weekdays, Hu Jiu will definitely want to sit here and watch the unique sunrise in the east.But obviously it's not right now.
Hu Jiu landed on the ground, the first thing he did was to check if the fire whip was still there. Fortunately, the fire whip lay quietly between his hands, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
The Fire Spirit Whip was bestowed upon him by the God Sovereign, as long as the Fire Spirit Whip was by his side, he would have an inexplicable sense of security, as if the God God King was by his side.
Thinking of what Xu Yan said to him, Hu Jiu looked at Huo Lingbian more eagerly.
I don't know if the fire spirit whip will listen to my own words?He held the handle of the whip, and the feel was extremely suitable. It is said that when people accept a new thing, there will always be a process of adaptation. Even if it is short, this process still exists, but he did not feel this discomfort at all. , but felt that he was extremely familiar with the Fire Spirit Whip, as if he had been fighting side by side with the Fire Spirit Whip for a long time.
Hu Jiu held the Fire Spirit Whip in his hand and was eager to try it. He looked around, deliberately picked a stone that was taller than him, and then swung his whip violently at the big stone, but the whip didn't touch it at all. The stone was not even a hair, but a crimson divine power swung from the whip, as sharp as a knife, and the three-foot-wide boulder was cut into a piece of gravel in an instant.
Hu Jiu shrunk his neck to avoid the splashing gravel, his face was surprised, he was extremely happy, and he held the fire whip with both hands and cherished it very much.He faintly felt that he and the fire whip were so compatible.
So Hu Jiu happily set out on the road holding the Fire Spirit Whip in both hands.
After walking for several hours, Hu Jiu still maintained the posture of carefully holding the Fire Spirit Whip with both hands. He simply didn't know what to do. Holding it with both hands would affect his walking, but putting the Fire Spirit Whip on his back seemed to be a bit of a pain in the ass. It was so disrespectful, and Hu Jiu was also very distressed.
"I'm sorry, Huo Lingbian, I'll hang you around my waist first, otherwise I won't be able to walk!" Because of the intangible familiarity with Huo Lingbian, Hu Jiu regarded Huo Lingbian as his partner , talking to Huo Lingbian all the way, after Hu Jiu finished talking to Huo Lingbian, it seemed that he was waiting for Huo Lingbian to respond to him, but how could Huo Lingbian respond to him, so he thought that Huo Lingbian agreed by default, so he Carefully hang the whip handle on the side of the waist.
Hu Jiu looked around, the place was desolate, the top of the mountain was covered with snow, and the bottom of the mountain was covered with yellow sand.Looking around is full of desolation.But this place is very beautiful, the sky is very blue, the clouds are so white, as if you can touch the clouds with your hands.
There is a solitary sanctity about this place.
This place should be uninhabited from the looks of it, why did the emperor of the human world pay so much attention to this place and repeatedly played it?
I don't know what kind of monster it is. The god sent me here without saying anything, and only gave me five days. What should I do?
"Fire Spirit Whip, what should I do?"
"Why can't you talk?" Hu Jiu sighed and walked west along the ridgeline.
The climate in this place is hot, and Fox Jiu once felt that the fireball-like sun was on the top of his head, but in some places it was terribly cold, the climate was unpredictable, and the mountain roads were rugged, there was no way to walk at all. It seemed hard, but it would collapse when stepped on, so Hu Jiu was basically half-walking and half-crawling along the way, exhausted.
Hu Jiu found a flat place and lay on his back on the ground, ignoring the pain in his back from the stones, panting heavily: "I...I remembered something."
"I seem to be able to fly! Why don't I fly, but instead climb here like a mortal?" Hu Jiu hit his head angrily, oops, no, I have to rest for a while, I'm so tired!
Hu Jiu hadn't eaten for five days, and he was really tired and hungry at the moment. He squinted his eyes and watched the sun that had turned into a needle-like glow, and gradually fell asleep.
When Hu Jiu woke up, the sky was already pitch black. He sat up and squinted his eyes looking at the not-so-round moon above his head. The moon is also so big in this place, and the light of the moonlight is thicker than other places. .
So he simply sat cross-legged, quietly absorbing the moonlight, his body exuded a faint soft light under the moonlight.He didn't see that the fire spirit whip also seemed to be absorbing the moonlight, emitting a faint red light.
The next day, the sun broke and the blue sky was extremely pure.
Hu Jiu sat up, stretched his waist hard, and beat his numb legs. He clenched his fists and felt that his strength was much stronger than yesterday. It seems that he can come here to practice in the future if he has nothing to do.
Hu Jiu chose a flat ground and started to run fast. After running for about ten steps, he suddenly stepped on a big raised rock, and his body flew into the sky like an arrow.
"Compared to when I came down from Changbai Peak, my mana has increased a lot," Hu Jiu secretly rejoiced. "I don't know when I will be able to beat Changying. I must compete with him this time when I go back!"
Not long after Hu Jiu flew in the sky, he saw a huge lake on the north side of the mountain. The lake was surrounded by houses, the streets were criss-cross, and the noise of people was loud and lively.It seems that if he walks on the ground again, he will arrive in half a day.
There are still mortals living in this place?But life would be better if there was a lake.
Hu Jiu caught an empty house and fell behind. When she fell, she stepped on a stone and almost sprained her foot.
Hu Jiu turned around from the back of the house, and found that the entire street was full of shops, and it was extremely lively. The street was so wide that it could almost accommodate ten small carriages passing side by side.
The people here are all dressed plainly, but they are different from the mortals in the Central Plains that Hu Jiu had seen before. The mortals here have rough faces, with curly beards on their faces, and furs on their bodies. Trousers, waistbands and sleeves, gauze scarves, and many stores are managed by women.
There are stables at every door of the shops here. There are either horses or camels in the stables. The smell of livestock and excrement is in the air.
Hu Jiu couldn't help wrinkling her nose.
There are everything hawking on the road.But there are few clothing and daily necessities. Most of them are handicrafts, handmade objects, decorations with local characteristics, and selling various tools. Inns definitely account for the vast majority of shops on both sides of the street. .
As Hu Jiu was walking, he saw a small open-air noodle shop by the side of the road. The small shop was equipped with simple equipment, a tent for the sun, and two sets of tables and chairs were placed under it. A big table, next to the table there are two big disasters, thick white water and noodles in an open pot are tumbling in it, a strong fragrance comes out, Hu Jiu couldn't help swallowing when he saw the noodles, his stomach immediately He cried out, he hasn't eaten anything these days.
He turned over and only found fifty demon coins in his pocket, but demon coins cannot be spent in the world, Hu Jiu looked at the noodle stall for a while and became dazed.
The owner of the noodle seller is a strong man with a big shoulder and a thick waist. Because he is close to the steaming cauldron, he is shirtless, his skin is red from the steam, and his round head has sparse hair. A very small bun was tied on the top of the head, and it was tied up with a towel around the forehead.
"Selling noodles, a big bowl of noodles with thick soup, pass by a bowl!" The boss's voice was wide and loud, and the time he spoke did not delay the work in his hand. A large piece of white dough was kneaded like cotton in his hand. The boss After yelling, she raised her eyes and saw Hu Jiu standing by the side of the road staring blankly at the noodles tumbling in the pot.
"Hey, kid, come and eat a bowl of noodles?" Hu Jiuzi is actually not short, but because he is too thin, he still looks like a child.
Hu Jiu rubbed her stomach and said embarrassedly, "I don't have any money."
The boss patted the dough in his hand, picked up the towel and wiped the flour all over his hands, then threw the towel on his shoulder, the flour flew around, he walked over to hold Hu Jiu's shoulder, and shouted loudly: "It's okay if you don't have money. I'll treat you to a bowl of noodles." Then, without any explanation, he pushed Hu Jiu's back with his big hand, and Hu Jiu pushed him to the table.
"thank you boss."
The boss took a large rough pottery bowl the size of a washbasin, scooped up a large spoonful of noodles with a strainer, put them into the bowl, then lifted another covered pot, and scooped it up with a long ladle. A spoonful of thick and fragrant yellow soup was poured on the noodles, and finally he grabbed the minced coriander meat and threw it into the bowl, and it hit Hu Jiu in front of him with a bang.
"It smells so good." Hu Jiu couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and taste it. His lips were numb from the heat and he didn't let go. He even gave the boss a thumbs up.
Seeing that Hu Jiu was eating so much that his face was almost buried in the bowl, the boss immediately laughed and said, "It's been a few days since I've been hungry, eat slowly, there's still more to come."
Hu Jiu devoured it voraciously and was extremely satisfied. In the end, he even drank all the soup, and felt a little full when he touched his stomach, which was enough to see how big the bowl of noodles was.
"Boss, your noodles are delicious."
The boss turned around and saw that Hu Jiu had run out of food, and asked, "Are you full, can I have another bowl?"
"No, no, no," Hu Jiu repeatedly waved his hands, "I'm so full."
The boss kneaded the dough angrily, and said, "My noodles are the most generous!"
The noodles were indeed delicious, but they were too salty. Hu Jiu poured himself a bowl of water and asked, looking at the noisy crowd around him, "Boss, where are you? Why is it so lively?"
The boss looked back at Hu Jiu, wiped the sweat off his forehead with a dry towel and said, "It's the first time you've come to our place, kid?"
"Oh, yes."
"Ours is the main road of Wusutag Town. All merchants traveling from east to west have to go through us. Except for ours, other places are deserts, and there is no way to go!"
"No wonder it's so prosperous here."
"See that our street is wide? It's all for the convenience of merchants."
"That's it, boss, come here," Hu Jiu patted the other end of the stool, signaling the boss to sit down. The boss thought that Hu Jiu wanted to chat with him, so he sat down enthusiastically, and took up half of the stool with his buttocks.
Hu Jiu didn't know what to chat with the boss, so in order not to waste his time, he went straight to the topic and asked in a low voice: "Boss, I heard that there is a monster in your place. I don't know if it's true?"
The boss looked at Hu Jiu suspiciously, and said, "You are a child, why do you inquire about this matter? This is not something a child can know." After finishing speaking, he got up and left.But he was grabbed by Hu Jiu.
"Don't. Tell me, do you know what I do?" Hu Jiu covered her face and whispered, "I'm a monster catcher!"
"Monster catcher!" The boss suddenly laughed loudly: "Recently, Lao Yao, I have seen many people who claim to be able to catch monsters. Monster, listen to me, kid, for your own safety, you should hurry back and forth, and stay away from Usutag."
"Why, I'm really a monster catcher! I beg you, just tell me what's going on?"
The boss still refused to say it, and then Hu Jiu couldn't help being soft-spoken, so he had to secretly tell Hu Jiu: "In the past few months, in the whole of Wusutag, more than 30 villages have been throwing away children, all of whom are under ten years old. My child, you must be fourteen or fifteen years old, right? Then you should be safe. It is said that there are more than 50 lost now. I also heard from a passing Taoist that the monster will tie up a hundred Boys and girls doing things to refine the elixir of life!"
"One hundred boys and girls..." The loss of so many children will definitely cause panic and social unrest in Usutag. Usutag is also an important hub of trade, so how could the emperor let such an important place be left alone.
"No, no!" A short, wretched-looking man with a mustache around his lips who was eating noodles couldn't help but interject when he heard the conversation between Hu Jiu and the boss: "I heard that the monster wants to Eat the brains of a hundred virgins to live forever!"
Hu Jiu turned around to look at the table of people who were talking, and a man who looked similar to him across from the short man said, "Hey, this is also weird, you said so many children, what a big goal, the government searched After so many days, I didn’t find anything.”
The boss said: "So, this is a fairy with great powers!"
Hu Jiu asked again: "Then do you know what kind of monster that is?"
"I don't know that!" The boss touched his forehead and said, "Anyway, Lao Yao, I'm a loner, and I don't worry that the monster will come to me, but ah, the monster is really powerful. Afterwards, every household with children wished they could hide them in the ground, but they could still be found by that monster, do you think that monster is powerful?"
"Boss, do you know where that monster often haunts?"
The boss stared, with a look of fear on his face: "I don't even know about this."
Hu Jiu turned to ask the people at the table, and the short man waved his hand and said, "We are in business, and today is the second day after we arrived in Usutag. We only heard about it, and that's all we know. .”
Hu Jiu sighed, didn't ask any more questions, but took out a monster coin from his pocket, secretly put his hand behind his back, and the red demon power overflowed from his palm, "By the way, boss, although I don't have money, I have this. "Hu Jiu handed the demon coin in the palm of his hand to the boss.
The demon coin has been remodeled, the four characters of Hongzhen Yaoxing have been erased, and only one side is left with a big demon character written on it. In this way, the demon coin can no longer be used as currency, and he will not be able to cross it without permission. Violating the laws of the demon world by circulating demon coins in the world.
The boss probably doesn't know much about Chinese characters, but at least he knows the big monster characters. He touched the material of monster coins, but couldn't tell what it was made of. "What is this?"
"This is a demon coin."
The boss sneered: "Where did you get the demon coins, you kid?"
Hu Jiu said: "Didn't I say that, I am a monster catcher, and this monster coin was searched from monsters."
"Really, really demon coins?" The boss looked at Hu Jiu suspiciously, took the demon coins and went to research by himself.
Just as Hu Jiu was about to leave, she saw a familiar person walking by from the other side of the street. Hu Jiu was startled, and hurriedly ran behind the curtain of the noodle stall. The man didn't seem to be shopping, because when he walked, he looked straight ahead. Walking was very purposeful, and when the man was far away, he grabbed the boss and pointed to the person who just passed by and said, "Boss, do you know the man in the yellow-and-white dress that just passed?"
The boss looked back and forth on the street with a bull's eye, and said in a daze, "Here...how can there be people in white clothes with yellow background?"
"Ah?" Hu Jiu looked over from a distance, and found out what people were doing where the man walked by, and didn't even glance at the man.
It seemed that the man had hidden himself so that the mortals here could not see him.
This man was none other than the cat who was the gatekeeper when he and Jun Li entered the demon city.But Hu Jiu was a little uncertain. Although the man I saw just now was wearing the same clothes as Mao Xingshi, they were very similar in stature and height, and their faces were also very similar as they passed by, but this man walked tall and straight, with firm steps and firm eyebrows. , not as charming and boneless as the cat acting that I saw at the entrance of the demon world that day.But Hu Jiu was still sure that this man was the cat who acted that day.
Strange, how did he appear in Usutag, what is he going to do?
Hu Jiu paused, and was about to follow, but found another man walking from the other side of the street. The man's eyes and footsteps were obviously following the cat in front of him.He's stalking cats?
This man is dressed in black, and his attire is very simple, but his good looks and curly long hair still make him quite conspicuous. This man walks all the way, and people passing by will look back at him. The most important thing is, Hu Jiu was greatly surprised by the aura exuded from this person, this is a god!
Do gods come to catch demons too?
Hu Jiu pulled at the boss and asked, "Boss, do you know who this person is?"
The boss glanced at the man and shook his head: "I don't know him, I'm new to him, and I've never seen this man before, and he doesn't look like us in his clothes."
"Will that be a merchant?"
The boss laughed: "You don't know that. People who are merchants travel all year round, crossing mountains and deserts. You see that person's clothes are so neat and his face is so clean. How can he be a merchant?"
"You're right!" Hu Jiu nodded in agreement.
The boss slapped the dough and shook the panel, "Anyway, since the accident happened in Usutag, there have been a lot of strangers, most of them came because of that monster. That's fine, Hurry up and catch the monster, and return Usutag to cleanliness."
Hu Jiu thought silently: "So many people can't subdue a monster? What is the origin of the monster?"
Hu Jiu thought for a while, then raised his heel and stepped up.
The man followed the cat, and Hu Jiu followed the man.
But it was obvious that Hu Jiu's tracking skills were not good enough. Before he had taken a few steps, the man noticed something and stopped to look back. Hu Jiu quickly hid in a shop.When Hu Jiu came out again, the man had disappeared.
Hu Jiu quickened his pace and walked along the street towards the street that the cat had just walked through. Since the man followed the cat, he could follow the cat as well.
Anyway, he was also curious about why the cat acted here.
The streets here are probably built straight for the convenience of merchants, but except for the main road which is particularly spacious, the other roads are only wide enough for one or two carriages to pass in parallel, and there are many shops and many people here. Locals and many merchants.There were people of all kinds, which undoubtedly made it difficult for Hu Jiu to follow.
And he walked two streets in a row without seeing the cat or the man.
Hu Jiu searched aimlessly for a day like this, almost searched all over here but still couldn't find any trace of these two people, but he memorized all the roads here, and even remembered all the shops in which street. Clearly.
The layout of Wusutag Town is like the veins of a leaf. There is a main road in the middle that is wide and wide. There are branch roads scattered from both sides of the main road. There are small roads inside the branch roads, and there are local residents in them.Enter a certain fork from the south side of the main road, and then walk along the fork for less than a mile to the huge lake that Hu Jiu saw when he was in the sky. The lake is surrounded by white ice, but the local People don't seem to be afraid of the cold, they walk on the ice and snow with bare arms and legs.
Hu Jiu's clothes are very different from those of the people here, so the local villagers around the lake have discovered Hu Jiu as a stranger. Fortunately, there are too many local merchants, and those local people just took a look at Hu Jiu and left ,and
Hu Jiu's eyes lit up for a moment, "Really?"
Xu Yan nodded: "You haven't answered my question yet."
"Well, I didn't think about it. I just felt that I was the one who caused the disaster, and I will accept any result."
"You have always been like this. You accept what happens when things come, and you never think of a way to solve them."
"Uh..." Hu Jiu frowned, wondering when did Shenjun know him so well?Why does he always feel that this god is fake?
"I'm real." Xu Yan saw through Hu Jiu's conjecture at a glance, frowned and said: "The best way is to pay off the crime. A goblin appeared at the foot of Wusutag Mountain recently, and the emperor of the human world repeatedly played It's also a headache to make Hongzhen feel bad."
"There are so many capable people in the demon world, how can you still refuse to subdue a goblin?"
Xu Yan shook her head: "You will know when you go."
"God Lord..."
"Ok?"
Xu Yan looked at Hu Jiu, and Hu Jiu's face suddenly became agitated. He pulled his sleeve and said, "Shenjun, are you a fake? I'm the one who even gives the demon emperor a headache. I'm only less than three hundred years old." , isn’t it that I’m a little fox who is less than four hundred years old, do you think I can do it?”
Xu Yan couldn't help being amused by Hu Jiu's bitter face, "How will you know if you don't try it? As long as you think about it, don't forget, you just said it yourself."
Hu Jiu clutched her hands, with a bitter expression on her face: "I...I'd better go and report it to the Demon Emperor first."
"I will go and talk to him personally."
Co-author Shenjun does not intend to give him other choices.Hu Jiu struggled to look at the bottomless black abyss, as if she would be sucked in just by looking at it.He was startled, and hurriedly said: "Shenjun, I'm afraid, what if I die?"
"Don't worry, even if you die, I will chase after you all over the world, and I will chase your soul back."
Hu Jiu looked at Xu Yan in surprise, the joke that he didn't want to joke just now was not funny at all, it even made his eyes heat up, and he felt like crying.Even though Xu Yan knew that what Xu Yan said was a joke, it turns out that there are people in this world who think about him, and people who go all over the world to find him, and this is how it feels.
Hu Jiu gradually clenched her fists, her eyes changed from flickering to firm: "Shen Jun, I will try my best to come back alive."
"You can't come back alone, you have to bring that goblin back, and you have to be alive."
Hu Jiu trembled all over, trying not to let herself tremble in fear, "I, I will try my best."
"Go."
Hu Jiu looked at the dark hole, and took two steps forward tremblingly. The invisible suffocation emanating from the hole made his scalp numb.
"and many more."
Hu Jiu took a big step back in an instant, and asked anxiously, "Can I..."
"this."
Hu Jiu stopped talking, and saw a gleaming red whip appearing in Xu Yan's hands.
"It's called the Fire Spirit Whip, and it's... an ancient artifact. Let me lend it to you for now, it can protect you somewhat."
"Fire Spirit Whip." Hu Jiu's eyes widened. This Fire Spirit Whip was three feet long. The head of the whip was wrapped with black silk, and the feathers at the end were as bright as a phoenix's tail.Less than half a foot away, Hu Jiu could clearly feel the mighty divine power coming from the fire whip.
And he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that he was so familiar with the Fire Spirit Whip, was it just because they were all fire elements?But Shenjun really wanted to lend him the Fire Spirit Whip?This is an ancient thing!
Hu Jiu moved her fingers, but retracted her back fiercely, abruptly averting her eyes from the Fire Spirit Whip: "Shenjun, the Fire Spirit Whip is a divine weapon, I... I'm afraid I won't be able to use it."
Xu Yan looked at the Fire Whip, with deep memory in his eyes, "The Fire Whip is not considered a divine weapon, it is made of the skin of an ancient fire snake and phoenix feathers, half a monster and half a god."
"But even so, it is also an ancient thing, and it needs powerful divine power to control it. How can I do it?"
"I gave it to you, you can use it, take it." Xu Yan took Hu Jiu's hand and put the Huo Ling whip on Hu Jiu's hand. After a long pause, Xu Yan let go. "Remember, don't lose it, if you lose it, don't come back."
Hu Jiu felt that the Huo Ling Whip did not reject him!The ancient artifacts are all spiritual objects, and the artifacts with high divine power can choose their own owner. Unexpectedly, he can also get the ancient artifacts now!If Changying knew about it, how envious he would be!Hu Jiu was ecstatic: "Shenjun, don't worry, I won't lose the Fire Spirit Whip even if I lose it myself, thank you, Shenjun!"
"Hu Jiu, I only give you five days. If you don't catch the demon within five days, then accept the judgment of the demon world honestly."
"I will try my best to come back within five days... Hey, but I don't know the way, and Nether Mountain is far away from Jinwei Palace."
"Don't worry, I will personally go and bring you back then." Xu Yan put his hand on Hu Jiu's shoulder and scratched hard. "Be careful."
Hu Jiu stretched out his hand to hold Xu Yan's hand, Xu Yan's eyes flickered, and he wanted to pull it back, but was held back by Hu Jiu. "Shenjun, you are the best person I have ever met. The most fortunate thing for me is to come to Changbai and meet you. Thank you for helping me. Thank you for everything."
Xu Yan felt his heart beating rapidly, he quickly withdrew his hand, turned his body sideways, mobilized his inner breath, and suppressed the vibration in his heart. "Don't waste time, let's go."
"Oh..." Hu Jiu took two steps, then suddenly turned around and said, "Shen Jun, Jun Lan is still being imprisoned by the Demon Emperor, can you let her out, after all... ah!"
Before Hu Jiu finished speaking, Xu Yan pushed him. Hu Jiu let out a loud cry, and was swallowed by the pitch-black vortex uncontrollably. As the black vortex disappeared, Hu Jiu's cry gradually disappeared. here.
"Feng Junlan? Hmph."
Naturally, she will be let go, but is it possible to keep her dangling by your side?If it wasn't for Feng Junlan, he might still be at the top of Changbai right now.
The two little birds of the Feng family really look alike, as expected of master and apprentice, 10 years ago, it was Feng Ling who was pestering you, now Feng Ling is staying in the South China Sea, and finally this little blue bird came out again.
Hu Jiu is different from Feng Jue. Feng Jue grew up by his side since he was born, and all his thoughts and behaviors are guided by him. He, I don't know what Hu Jiu likes and what he likes to do?To him, Hu Jiu was so familiar, but still so strange.
In this life, he originally wanted Hu Jiuping to live an ordinary life. He would not have any intersection with him, would not get entangled with him, and would not let him remember everything in the past, so that he could live in peace, and the three worlds It was too peaceful.But Feng Junlan's sudden appearance made Xu Yan realize that if he let Hu Jiu go, what would happen to him?He was deliberately indifferent to him and made things difficult for him, just to keep Hu Jiu away from him, so that both of them would be fine, but he forgot that Hu Jiu is not Feng'er, no matter what he does, Feng'er will never leave him Abandon, but this person is Hu Jiu, he will really leave him.
That's right, he is very selfish, relying on Feng's absolute respect for him, he unscrupulously restricts all his actions, arbitrarily decides his life and death, changes his choices arbitrarily, and leaves him whenever he wants.
But there is only one Fengjue in the world.
5000 years ago, when Feng'er disappeared before his eyes, facing the tens of thousands of gods in Youming Mountain, he suddenly felt huge and boundless fear.That fear swallowed him, making him think that in the next tens of millions of years, he would walk alone alone.
He had never been so afraid, even when the ancient gods fell, he had never felt such barren fear.Because Feng'er was gone, the Feng'er who had been with him was gone.
Now he's alive, he's not gone.
Xu Yan snorted, no matter it was Feng'er or Hu Jiu, he wanted to completely grasp it.Suddenly, there was a pain in the center of his brow, Xu Yan looked back in a daze, and saw the sound of thunder suddenly came from the sky.The blue sky and the day are thunderous.
"What? Are you dissatisfied?" Xu Yan looked up at the sky, eyes full of obstinacy: "This is the destiny. Although you are both a true god, you have to follow the destiny. Are you afraid? In fact, Di Kun and I are the same. You So what if you try your best to defeat Di Kun? Di Xian, you have already fallen, and you and the gods have exhausted everything to divide the three realms, but you never thought that I would appear. Do you regret it? Haha..."
Xu Yan's expression turned cold in an instant, he covered his heart, there was a dull pain there, hidden deep in the spiritual sea was the unstoppable change of the Three Realms.After a long while, he let out a long sigh, suppressed the almost mad look in his eyes, and waved his hand, the thunder suddenly stopped.After a pause, he suddenly smiled wryly, and red threads appeared in his eyes.
"You can't fight the destiny, how can I go against the sky?"
However, Hu Jiu is not Feng'er yet.
At least not yet, as long as Hu Jiu can never become Feng'er, then he doesn't need to worry so much.Xu Yan stretched out his hand to touch the blood bead between his brows, and the corner of his mouth curled up. He raised his eyes to the sky, and there was even a look of cruel despair in his eyes.
As long as his Feng'er is still there, what does the survival of the Three Realms have to do with him!
Yes, I am a true God, but I am a God who is more selfish than anyone else!
Xu Yan turned her head and went back the same way, took two steps, but stopped suddenly.
Not far in front of him, Bai Yan stood there quietly.
A trace of panic and murderous intent flashed across Xu Yan's expression, as if he was worried that the secret would be exposed, he looked at Bai Yan from afar, calmed down, and asked, "When did you come?"
Bai Yan looked shocked, shocked by the unconcealable killing intent in Xu Yan's eyes, he stood there blankly, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Who are you?"
Xu Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, and walked towards Bai Yan: "Who do you think I am?"
Bai Yan backed away subconsciously. At this moment, he suddenly felt that the Xu Yan in front of him was extremely terrifying. This person was not the Xu Yan he knew, it was not the person he had seen countless times in his dreams, it was not the person he could never forget. that person.
Fighting against the destiny and ignoring the gods, who is he?
When Bai Yan saw Xu Yan's hand extending towards him, he opened his eyes and wanted to block it, but he was easily attracted by the silver-white divine light in Xu Yan's palm, and his brain gradually escaped his control.
"I'm sorry, you can't know this. You died because of me 10 years ago, and now I can't let you get hurt any more because of me." Xu Yan said, and Bai Yan's eyes were dull, with strands of silvery white The luster from his eyes was sucked into Xu Yan's palm, and Xu Yan retracted her hand, crushing the strand of white silk into her palm.
Bai Yan's expression flickered, he seemed startled when he saw Xu Yan who was so close.
"Just arrived." Bai Yan frowned, and said again: "I have been waiting for you for a long time at the top of Changbai, but you haven't come back yet, so I had no choice but to come here by myself."
Bai Yan walked over and asked expressionlessly: "What's the matter with the thunder just now? Was it aimed at you?"
"No." Xu Yan replied coldly, "Go back, have you been to the demon world before?"
Bai Yan followed behind Xu Yan and said, "I haven't been here before, my father doesn't really allow me to go out of the mountain gate."
"Oh, he is also worried about you."
"What's there to worry about?" Bai Yan pouted, "I heard that Hu Jiu got into trouble in the demon world?"
"Who did you listen to?" Xu Yan once hinted to Hongzhen, don't make it public in advance, could it be that he is so bold?
"When I came here just now, I accidentally heard two foxes talking, and that's how I found out."
"Two foxes?"
Bai Yan casually plucked a small milky-white flower the size of a fingernail from the ground, pinched it on his fingertips, and played with it, "That's right, it's Hu Jiu's father."
"It's him,"
"Do you want to seek justice for Hu Jiu? It is said that Hu Jiu's situation in Qingqiu has always been quite difficult."
Xu Yan shook his head and said, "This is his own business. If he can't even handle this trivial matter well, then he is not qualified to be a nine-tailed Firefox."
"There will be opportunities in the future to deal with Qingqiu's affairs, but it is really difficult for him to subdue a ten thousand-year-old monster in five days."
Xu Yan suddenly stopped, he turned to Bai Yan, and looked at Bai Yan with a very stern gaze: "Bai Yan, I indulge you because I have old friends with Shuyin, but it doesn't mean that you can Do whatever you want in front of me, do you understand?"
Bai Yan has been here for a long time, even before Hu Jiu left, he didn't even realize that even though Bai Yan is only five thousand years old now, he still can't control him much, just now he just drew Bai Yan If there were more words I heard from myself, Bai Yan would definitely notice it.
Even if he can't recover his real body, with Bai Yan's current strength, it's only a matter of time before he wants to investigate.He couldn't give him the slightest chance.If the person who appeared just now was not Bai Yan, Xu Yan would really want to kill him.
Bai Yan shook his hands, and the flower in his hand fell to the ground. His throat rolled involuntarily, and he said, "It's you who didn't discover me."
Xu Yan turned her head and said calmly: "This kind of thing is only this time, and it will not be an example."
Bai Yan stood there for a while, silently crushing the fallen white flower into the soil with his toes, with broken affection in his eyes, he lifted his heels up.
Jinwei Palace, the back hall of the Hall of Eternal Life.
"Shenjun, Hongzhen is very embarrassed by your doing so."
"Just give him five days. When he comes back, it's up to you." At this moment, Xu Yan was sitting at the head, leisurely sipping the top-grade tea specially prepared for him by the Demon Emperor.
Bai Yan sat opposite Hong Zhen, because many of these things had nothing to do with Bai Yan, so Bai Yan just sat quietly and drank tea.
Hongzhen sighed helplessly, "You agreed, it's really only five days, and it's five days in the human world."
"Correct."
The Yaohuang took a sip of tea, calmed himself down, and said: "Gu Jian has already reported to me what happened just now, and I have sent someone to release Hu Jingting. Hu Meier's punishment is still a stick away. The incense time is over, oh yes, Hu Rong, the patriarch of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, asks to see you."
Xu Yan blew on the tea noodles and said, "Is this gentleman able to see whoever he wants?"
"I'll send someone to turn him down right now." The Demon Emperor glanced at Bai Yan who was opposite him, thinking that it was enough for him to suffer from being refuted by Xu Yan, the majestic Demon Emperor. Immortal face, what a shame.
"By the way, Shenjun, how will the Feng Clan people deal with it?"
"Where did you send it back? Do you want me to send it in person?"
"Yes, Hongzhen will send someone to send Princess Fengxiao back to Phoenix Mountain in the South China Sea." The Demon Emperor suddenly felt like he wanted to wipe off his sweat. What happened to the Shenjun, every word he said revealed his dissatisfaction with him.These days he has served with all his heart, how could he still get such a result!
In the final analysis, it was because of Hu Jiu, but the disaster was caused by Hu Jiu himself, and it has nothing to do with him!The Demon Emperor was very aggrieved, thinking to himself, it really is the first rank of the official who crushes people to death, who would dare to sit on top of him back then?
Bai Yan put down the tea bowl suddenly and said, "Shenjun, Bai Yan has a proposal."
"Say."
"Hu Jiu is wearing a sinful body. It is really against the rules to go away without authorization, but since it is guaranteed by you, there is no need to worry about Hu Jiu going away. But in order to make the Demon Emperor feel at ease, why don't we watch it here? Hu Jiu's whereabouts along the way? Five days in the human world, but in the blink of an eye."
Xu Yan looked at the Demon Emperor: "Hongzhen, what do you think?"
"I..." The Demon Emperor couldn't understand whether Xu Yan wanted to see it or not, Xu Yan was expressionless, and he couldn't see what Xu Yan meant, which made him very entangled, "Then... let's take a look?"
Xu Yan said: "Let's see."
The Demon Emperor breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Yan got a little water on his fingertips, and shot the water drop into the air. The water drop suddenly turned into a water mirror as big as an adult's arms around him. At the same time, Hu Jiu, dressed in red, His figure appeared in the water mirror.
Bai Yan saw that Hu Jiu was holding a fiery red whip in his hand, and was walking and watching curiously. Bai Yan's eyes widened, and he turned to look at Xu Yan.
However, at this time, the Demon Emperor suddenly stood up, staring at the water mirror, and the fist clenched by his side was bulging with force: "He went to Wusutag!"
☆, Usutag
When Hu Jiu arrived in Wusutag, the sky was still dark and the sun had just risen.The scenery here is quite amazing. If he is free on weekdays, Hu Jiu will definitely want to sit here and watch the unique sunrise in the east.But obviously it's not right now.
Hu Jiu landed on the ground, the first thing he did was to check if the fire whip was still there. Fortunately, the fire whip lay quietly between his hands, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
The Fire Spirit Whip was bestowed upon him by the God Sovereign, as long as the Fire Spirit Whip was by his side, he would have an inexplicable sense of security, as if the God God King was by his side.
Thinking of what Xu Yan said to him, Hu Jiu looked at Huo Lingbian more eagerly.
I don't know if the fire spirit whip will listen to my own words?He held the handle of the whip, and the feel was extremely suitable. It is said that when people accept a new thing, there will always be a process of adaptation. Even if it is short, this process still exists, but he did not feel this discomfort at all. , but felt that he was extremely familiar with the Fire Spirit Whip, as if he had been fighting side by side with the Fire Spirit Whip for a long time.
Hu Jiu held the Fire Spirit Whip in his hand and was eager to try it. He looked around, deliberately picked a stone that was taller than him, and then swung his whip violently at the big stone, but the whip didn't touch it at all. The stone was not even a hair, but a crimson divine power swung from the whip, as sharp as a knife, and the three-foot-wide boulder was cut into a piece of gravel in an instant.
Hu Jiu shrunk his neck to avoid the splashing gravel, his face was surprised, he was extremely happy, and he held the fire whip with both hands and cherished it very much.He faintly felt that he and the fire whip were so compatible.
So Hu Jiu happily set out on the road holding the Fire Spirit Whip in both hands.
After walking for several hours, Hu Jiu still maintained the posture of carefully holding the Fire Spirit Whip with both hands. He simply didn't know what to do. Holding it with both hands would affect his walking, but putting the Fire Spirit Whip on his back seemed to be a bit of a pain in the ass. It was so disrespectful, and Hu Jiu was also very distressed.
"I'm sorry, Huo Lingbian, I'll hang you around my waist first, otherwise I won't be able to walk!" Because of the intangible familiarity with Huo Lingbian, Hu Jiu regarded Huo Lingbian as his partner , talking to Huo Lingbian all the way, after Hu Jiu finished talking to Huo Lingbian, it seemed that he was waiting for Huo Lingbian to respond to him, but how could Huo Lingbian respond to him, so he thought that Huo Lingbian agreed by default, so he Carefully hang the whip handle on the side of the waist.
Hu Jiu looked around, the place was desolate, the top of the mountain was covered with snow, and the bottom of the mountain was covered with yellow sand.Looking around is full of desolation.But this place is very beautiful, the sky is very blue, the clouds are so white, as if you can touch the clouds with your hands.
There is a solitary sanctity about this place.
This place should be uninhabited from the looks of it, why did the emperor of the human world pay so much attention to this place and repeatedly played it?
I don't know what kind of monster it is. The god sent me here without saying anything, and only gave me five days. What should I do?
"Fire Spirit Whip, what should I do?"
"Why can't you talk?" Hu Jiu sighed and walked west along the ridgeline.
The climate in this place is hot, and Fox Jiu once felt that the fireball-like sun was on the top of his head, but in some places it was terribly cold, the climate was unpredictable, and the mountain roads were rugged, there was no way to walk at all. It seemed hard, but it would collapse when stepped on, so Hu Jiu was basically half-walking and half-crawling along the way, exhausted.
Hu Jiu found a flat place and lay on his back on the ground, ignoring the pain in his back from the stones, panting heavily: "I...I remembered something."
"I seem to be able to fly! Why don't I fly, but instead climb here like a mortal?" Hu Jiu hit his head angrily, oops, no, I have to rest for a while, I'm so tired!
Hu Jiu hadn't eaten for five days, and he was really tired and hungry at the moment. He squinted his eyes and watched the sun that had turned into a needle-like glow, and gradually fell asleep.
When Hu Jiu woke up, the sky was already pitch black. He sat up and squinted his eyes looking at the not-so-round moon above his head. The moon is also so big in this place, and the light of the moonlight is thicker than other places. .
So he simply sat cross-legged, quietly absorbing the moonlight, his body exuded a faint soft light under the moonlight.He didn't see that the fire spirit whip also seemed to be absorbing the moonlight, emitting a faint red light.
The next day, the sun broke and the blue sky was extremely pure.
Hu Jiu sat up, stretched his waist hard, and beat his numb legs. He clenched his fists and felt that his strength was much stronger than yesterday. It seems that he can come here to practice in the future if he has nothing to do.
Hu Jiu chose a flat ground and started to run fast. After running for about ten steps, he suddenly stepped on a big raised rock, and his body flew into the sky like an arrow.
"Compared to when I came down from Changbai Peak, my mana has increased a lot," Hu Jiu secretly rejoiced. "I don't know when I will be able to beat Changying. I must compete with him this time when I go back!"
Not long after Hu Jiu flew in the sky, he saw a huge lake on the north side of the mountain. The lake was surrounded by houses, the streets were criss-cross, and the noise of people was loud and lively.It seems that if he walks on the ground again, he will arrive in half a day.
There are still mortals living in this place?But life would be better if there was a lake.
Hu Jiu caught an empty house and fell behind. When she fell, she stepped on a stone and almost sprained her foot.
Hu Jiu turned around from the back of the house, and found that the entire street was full of shops, and it was extremely lively. The street was so wide that it could almost accommodate ten small carriages passing side by side.
The people here are all dressed plainly, but they are different from the mortals in the Central Plains that Hu Jiu had seen before. The mortals here have rough faces, with curly beards on their faces, and furs on their bodies. Trousers, waistbands and sleeves, gauze scarves, and many stores are managed by women.
There are stables at every door of the shops here. There are either horses or camels in the stables. The smell of livestock and excrement is in the air.
Hu Jiu couldn't help wrinkling her nose.
There are everything hawking on the road.But there are few clothing and daily necessities. Most of them are handicrafts, handmade objects, decorations with local characteristics, and selling various tools. Inns definitely account for the vast majority of shops on both sides of the street. .
As Hu Jiu was walking, he saw a small open-air noodle shop by the side of the road. The small shop was equipped with simple equipment, a tent for the sun, and two sets of tables and chairs were placed under it. A big table, next to the table there are two big disasters, thick white water and noodles in an open pot are tumbling in it, a strong fragrance comes out, Hu Jiu couldn't help swallowing when he saw the noodles, his stomach immediately He cried out, he hasn't eaten anything these days.
He turned over and only found fifty demon coins in his pocket, but demon coins cannot be spent in the world, Hu Jiu looked at the noodle stall for a while and became dazed.
The owner of the noodle seller is a strong man with a big shoulder and a thick waist. Because he is close to the steaming cauldron, he is shirtless, his skin is red from the steam, and his round head has sparse hair. A very small bun was tied on the top of the head, and it was tied up with a towel around the forehead.
"Selling noodles, a big bowl of noodles with thick soup, pass by a bowl!" The boss's voice was wide and loud, and the time he spoke did not delay the work in his hand. A large piece of white dough was kneaded like cotton in his hand. The boss After yelling, she raised her eyes and saw Hu Jiu standing by the side of the road staring blankly at the noodles tumbling in the pot.
"Hey, kid, come and eat a bowl of noodles?" Hu Jiuzi is actually not short, but because he is too thin, he still looks like a child.
Hu Jiu rubbed her stomach and said embarrassedly, "I don't have any money."
The boss patted the dough in his hand, picked up the towel and wiped the flour all over his hands, then threw the towel on his shoulder, the flour flew around, he walked over to hold Hu Jiu's shoulder, and shouted loudly: "It's okay if you don't have money. I'll treat you to a bowl of noodles." Then, without any explanation, he pushed Hu Jiu's back with his big hand, and Hu Jiu pushed him to the table.
"thank you boss."
The boss took a large rough pottery bowl the size of a washbasin, scooped up a large spoonful of noodles with a strainer, put them into the bowl, then lifted another covered pot, and scooped it up with a long ladle. A spoonful of thick and fragrant yellow soup was poured on the noodles, and finally he grabbed the minced coriander meat and threw it into the bowl, and it hit Hu Jiu in front of him with a bang.
"It smells so good." Hu Jiu couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and taste it. His lips were numb from the heat and he didn't let go. He even gave the boss a thumbs up.
Seeing that Hu Jiu was eating so much that his face was almost buried in the bowl, the boss immediately laughed and said, "It's been a few days since I've been hungry, eat slowly, there's still more to come."
Hu Jiu devoured it voraciously and was extremely satisfied. In the end, he even drank all the soup, and felt a little full when he touched his stomach, which was enough to see how big the bowl of noodles was.
"Boss, your noodles are delicious."
The boss turned around and saw that Hu Jiu had run out of food, and asked, "Are you full, can I have another bowl?"
"No, no, no," Hu Jiu repeatedly waved his hands, "I'm so full."
The boss kneaded the dough angrily, and said, "My noodles are the most generous!"
The noodles were indeed delicious, but they were too salty. Hu Jiu poured himself a bowl of water and asked, looking at the noisy crowd around him, "Boss, where are you? Why is it so lively?"
The boss looked back at Hu Jiu, wiped the sweat off his forehead with a dry towel and said, "It's the first time you've come to our place, kid?"
"Oh, yes."
"Ours is the main road of Wusutag Town. All merchants traveling from east to west have to go through us. Except for ours, other places are deserts, and there is no way to go!"
"No wonder it's so prosperous here."
"See that our street is wide? It's all for the convenience of merchants."
"That's it, boss, come here," Hu Jiu patted the other end of the stool, signaling the boss to sit down. The boss thought that Hu Jiu wanted to chat with him, so he sat down enthusiastically, and took up half of the stool with his buttocks.
Hu Jiu didn't know what to chat with the boss, so in order not to waste his time, he went straight to the topic and asked in a low voice: "Boss, I heard that there is a monster in your place. I don't know if it's true?"
The boss looked at Hu Jiu suspiciously, and said, "You are a child, why do you inquire about this matter? This is not something a child can know." After finishing speaking, he got up and left.But he was grabbed by Hu Jiu.
"Don't. Tell me, do you know what I do?" Hu Jiu covered her face and whispered, "I'm a monster catcher!"
"Monster catcher!" The boss suddenly laughed loudly: "Recently, Lao Yao, I have seen many people who claim to be able to catch monsters. Monster, listen to me, kid, for your own safety, you should hurry back and forth, and stay away from Usutag."
"Why, I'm really a monster catcher! I beg you, just tell me what's going on?"
The boss still refused to say it, and then Hu Jiu couldn't help being soft-spoken, so he had to secretly tell Hu Jiu: "In the past few months, in the whole of Wusutag, more than 30 villages have been throwing away children, all of whom are under ten years old. My child, you must be fourteen or fifteen years old, right? Then you should be safe. It is said that there are more than 50 lost now. I also heard from a passing Taoist that the monster will tie up a hundred Boys and girls doing things to refine the elixir of life!"
"One hundred boys and girls..." The loss of so many children will definitely cause panic and social unrest in Usutag. Usutag is also an important hub of trade, so how could the emperor let such an important place be left alone.
"No, no!" A short, wretched-looking man with a mustache around his lips who was eating noodles couldn't help but interject when he heard the conversation between Hu Jiu and the boss: "I heard that the monster wants to Eat the brains of a hundred virgins to live forever!"
Hu Jiu turned around to look at the table of people who were talking, and a man who looked similar to him across from the short man said, "Hey, this is also weird, you said so many children, what a big goal, the government searched After so many days, I didn’t find anything.”
The boss said: "So, this is a fairy with great powers!"
Hu Jiu asked again: "Then do you know what kind of monster that is?"
"I don't know that!" The boss touched his forehead and said, "Anyway, Lao Yao, I'm a loner, and I don't worry that the monster will come to me, but ah, the monster is really powerful. Afterwards, every household with children wished they could hide them in the ground, but they could still be found by that monster, do you think that monster is powerful?"
"Boss, do you know where that monster often haunts?"
The boss stared, with a look of fear on his face: "I don't even know about this."
Hu Jiu turned to ask the people at the table, and the short man waved his hand and said, "We are in business, and today is the second day after we arrived in Usutag. We only heard about it, and that's all we know. .”
Hu Jiu sighed, didn't ask any more questions, but took out a monster coin from his pocket, secretly put his hand behind his back, and the red demon power overflowed from his palm, "By the way, boss, although I don't have money, I have this. "Hu Jiu handed the demon coin in the palm of his hand to the boss.
The demon coin has been remodeled, the four characters of Hongzhen Yaoxing have been erased, and only one side is left with a big demon character written on it. In this way, the demon coin can no longer be used as currency, and he will not be able to cross it without permission. Violating the laws of the demon world by circulating demon coins in the world.
The boss probably doesn't know much about Chinese characters, but at least he knows the big monster characters. He touched the material of monster coins, but couldn't tell what it was made of. "What is this?"
"This is a demon coin."
The boss sneered: "Where did you get the demon coins, you kid?"
Hu Jiu said: "Didn't I say that, I am a monster catcher, and this monster coin was searched from monsters."
"Really, really demon coins?" The boss looked at Hu Jiu suspiciously, took the demon coins and went to research by himself.
Just as Hu Jiu was about to leave, she saw a familiar person walking by from the other side of the street. Hu Jiu was startled, and hurriedly ran behind the curtain of the noodle stall. The man didn't seem to be shopping, because when he walked, he looked straight ahead. Walking was very purposeful, and when the man was far away, he grabbed the boss and pointed to the person who just passed by and said, "Boss, do you know the man in the yellow-and-white dress that just passed?"
The boss looked back and forth on the street with a bull's eye, and said in a daze, "Here...how can there be people in white clothes with yellow background?"
"Ah?" Hu Jiu looked over from a distance, and found out what people were doing where the man walked by, and didn't even glance at the man.
It seemed that the man had hidden himself so that the mortals here could not see him.
This man was none other than the cat who was the gatekeeper when he and Jun Li entered the demon city.But Hu Jiu was a little uncertain. Although the man I saw just now was wearing the same clothes as Mao Xingshi, they were very similar in stature and height, and their faces were also very similar as they passed by, but this man walked tall and straight, with firm steps and firm eyebrows. , not as charming and boneless as the cat acting that I saw at the entrance of the demon world that day.But Hu Jiu was still sure that this man was the cat who acted that day.
Strange, how did he appear in Usutag, what is he going to do?
Hu Jiu paused, and was about to follow, but found another man walking from the other side of the street. The man's eyes and footsteps were obviously following the cat in front of him.He's stalking cats?
This man is dressed in black, and his attire is very simple, but his good looks and curly long hair still make him quite conspicuous. This man walks all the way, and people passing by will look back at him. The most important thing is, Hu Jiu was greatly surprised by the aura exuded from this person, this is a god!
Do gods come to catch demons too?
Hu Jiu pulled at the boss and asked, "Boss, do you know who this person is?"
The boss glanced at the man and shook his head: "I don't know him, I'm new to him, and I've never seen this man before, and he doesn't look like us in his clothes."
"Will that be a merchant?"
The boss laughed: "You don't know that. People who are merchants travel all year round, crossing mountains and deserts. You see that person's clothes are so neat and his face is so clean. How can he be a merchant?"
"You're right!" Hu Jiu nodded in agreement.
The boss slapped the dough and shook the panel, "Anyway, since the accident happened in Usutag, there have been a lot of strangers, most of them came because of that monster. That's fine, Hurry up and catch the monster, and return Usutag to cleanliness."
Hu Jiu thought silently: "So many people can't subdue a monster? What is the origin of the monster?"
Hu Jiu thought for a while, then raised his heel and stepped up.
The man followed the cat, and Hu Jiu followed the man.
But it was obvious that Hu Jiu's tracking skills were not good enough. Before he had taken a few steps, the man noticed something and stopped to look back. Hu Jiu quickly hid in a shop.When Hu Jiu came out again, the man had disappeared.
Hu Jiu quickened his pace and walked along the street towards the street that the cat had just walked through. Since the man followed the cat, he could follow the cat as well.
Anyway, he was also curious about why the cat acted here.
The streets here are probably built straight for the convenience of merchants, but except for the main road which is particularly spacious, the other roads are only wide enough for one or two carriages to pass in parallel, and there are many shops and many people here. Locals and many merchants.There were people of all kinds, which undoubtedly made it difficult for Hu Jiu to follow.
And he walked two streets in a row without seeing the cat or the man.
Hu Jiu searched aimlessly for a day like this, almost searched all over here but still couldn't find any trace of these two people, but he memorized all the roads here, and even remembered all the shops in which street. Clearly.
The layout of Wusutag Town is like the veins of a leaf. There is a main road in the middle that is wide and wide. There are branch roads scattered from both sides of the main road. There are small roads inside the branch roads, and there are local residents in them.Enter a certain fork from the south side of the main road, and then walk along the fork for less than a mile to the huge lake that Hu Jiu saw when he was in the sky. The lake is surrounded by white ice, but the local People don't seem to be afraid of the cold, they walk on the ice and snow with bare arms and legs.
Hu Jiu's clothes are very different from those of the people here, so the local villagers around the lake have discovered Hu Jiu as a stranger. Fortunately, there are too many local merchants, and those local people just took a look at Hu Jiu and left ,and
