Chapter 6
Chapter 6
The west gate of Lianshan City is facing the ancient land of Senqiu. Standing on the tower and looking out, you can see the sealing barrier formed by gray clouds in the air in the distance.
You Miao followed Xing Ji and left the restaurant. The two first walked around the city along the high wall, and then boarded the tower.
The wind on the city tower was very strong, and the clothes of the people blowing rustled. You Miao leaned against the wind shelter, looking into the distance with deep eyes.
The plain has an advantage, that is, it is easy to see the end of the sky, without the barriers of mountains, the view is wide and vast, and the whole world is magnified, making the viewer appear smaller.
"Do you think the city walls here can withstand the invasion of monsters?" You Miao asked suddenly in the silence.
Xing Ji was stunned for a moment, pondered, looked into the distance, and said with emotion, "Maybe it can."
You Miao shook her head: "I find it difficult."
"Why?" Xing Ji didn't expect You Miao to say this, and looked at him curiously: "Although the monster race is powerful, they are still flesh and blood after all."
The big demon may have the ability to break through the city with one blow, just like what You Miao used to warn Wu Yanrou before, if he is really angry, if he throws out the snake bone chain in his hand, half of the mountain city will be under the terrifying demon power Annihilation without a trace.
However, there are only seven members of the monster race like You Miao, after all, the human race and the upper heavens are so powerful, several people stare at one, and the big monsters will not rush to experience the feeling of being besieged.
The rest are some insignificant small shrimps, and the way of monsters who go crazy when they smell the smell of flesh and blood is to attack the city with a lifeless collision.
Xing Ji had witnessed with his own eyes thousands of years ago the scene of corpses strewn all over the territory of the human race after the period of breaking the seal had passed.What he saw outside a city were blood-red eyes, all of which were traces left by those monsters crashing into the city wall.
You Miao looked at the busy workers downstairs, and did not refute Xing Ji's words, but said calmly, "I have seen a city captured by monsters with my own eyes."
Xing Ji frowned when he heard this. He first met You Miao thousands of years ago, around the time of breaking the seal, but he didn't know what experiences You Miao had before coming to Yunfang Palace.
These things involved his life experience. Although Xing Ji guessed something from many details, he only guessed that his master Yun Fangjun should be You Miao's biological father. I don't know.
Feeling the worried gazes cast by the people around her, You Miao raised her head and smiled at him, stepped up the steps and walked down the tower.
"Mr. Yunfang is my biological father, that's right, but when I was young, oh, I mean just broke my shell, I was adopted by a human race at that time, but it happened to be the break-up period later, and we lived together The place fell quickly, and my adoptive mother died in the hands of those demon clans."
You Miao patted the city wall beside him, "The tower over there is even higher than here, and I once stood below and looked up. But even that, it still couldn't prevent the catastrophe from happening, there are always some monsters You can jump into the city with one leap and wipe everything out."
This is the first time Xing Ji heard You Miao talk about his childhood, he did not expect the young man to have such an experience, he took a look at the tower, and decided to remind Wu Lianshan again when he had a chance.
Then, he focused on the part of You Miao's words that mentioned his life experience: "You never said that you were adopted by the human race, then your biological mother..."
You Miao is the Demon Emperor of the Xuan Snake lineage, and has the purest Xuan Snake blood in the clan, so his mother should be the previous generation of Demon Emperor.
But Xing Ji had never heard of any related figures in the Xuan Snake Clan.
Xing Ji still remembers that after Yun Fangjun sent You Miao away, because he still wanted to continue his practice, it was two or three hundred years before he saw You Miao again. At that time, the parting scene left a deep impression on him The black-clothed boy I remember has transformed into one of the Seven Great Demon Kings in Senqiu Ancient Land.
"Is it my biological mother?" You Miao didn't intend to elaborate, he walked in front of Xing Ji, when he heard the question, he turned to look at him, "I'll take you to meet her when I have time."
Xing Ji was a little puzzled, but seeing that You Miao didn't want to say anything, and didn't ask again, he nodded, and seeing that the two had turned and walked onto the street, he asked, "Where are you going?"
You Miao looked at the various trinkets on the stalls on both sides of the street with his hands behind his back, and would stop to pick them up from time to time to look through them, "Didn't you mean to go shopping? You can't just blow the wind on the tower."
"..." Xing Ji was a little helpless, reached into his bosom, took out a little silver and handed it to the boss, pointed to the small objects that You Miao's eyes stayed on for a little longer, "I've got all of these."
"Hey, okay, just wait a moment!" The boss likes such customers who don't ask the price. He accepted the silver taels with a happy smile, and then wrapped up all the things You Miao picked up and looked at, "Come on, customer, take it well." .”
"..." You Miao took the small cloth bag in a daze, and looked at Xing Ji with complicated eyes: "I didn't want it."
Xing Ji held back the smile on his lips, "That's what I want to buy for you."
"・・・"
Walking from the street to the corner, You Miao no longer dared to open his eyes to look around, he grabbed Xing Ji who wanted to buy candied haws for him, and couldn't laugh or cry: "Why do you carry so much silver with you?"
Xing Ji smiled slyly when he heard this, and didn't say that he did it on purpose.
You Miao gave the things Xing Ji bought for him to the children playing on the street, leaving only a rattle, "I'll just keep this one."
Xing Ji had no objection, he just dutifully made a little tail, watching You Miao stop and go.
Suddenly, You Miao stopped in her tracks, looking at a place with a heavy expression on her face.
Xing Ji became nervous for no reason: "What's wrong?"
You Miao touched the snake bone chain wrapped around her waist with her right hand, her eyes became gloomy, "I met an acquaintance."
"acquaintance?"
Following You Miao dodged across a few streets, and stopped in front of a building exuding a bewildering aroma, Xing Ji finally realized that the so-called acquaintances were Qing Tan who was so guilty that he disappeared after losing You Ning.
Outside the Hongxiang Pavilion, the sound of warblers and swallows came from the house, the low voice was like the murmur of lovers when they are in deep love. Several girls were standing on the street twisting their waists to solicit customers. They saw You Miao and Xing Ji standing at the door. , It's like a wolf that has been hungry for three days smells the meat, and its eyes light up.
They twisted their willow waists and ran over in a swarm. Before they approached, You Miao already felt that she was surrounded by the fragrance of various flowers, so she subconsciously took a step back.
Suddenly bumped into something, he turned his head, only to realize that he had retreated into Xing Ji's arms at some point.
The body temperature of the person behind him was much higher than his, and when he calmed down, You Miao felt as if a fire had ignited around him, and quickly retreated.
It was rare to see You Miao in such a hurry, Xing Ji watched happily, but noticed that he was staggering two steps and was about to fall forward, so he quickly held his arm, "Are you all right?"
You Miao's face was flushed, she lowered her head and dared not look directly at Xing Ji, "It's okay."
Xing Ji tightened his grip on You Miao's arm, and just about to say something, all the girls surrounded him.
"Hey, it's the first time for you two to come to our Hongxiang Pavilion, I'll take you in!"
"Go, what's the matter with you? Guest, don't listen to her, I'll lead you... Whoops, which bitch stepped on my shoe?!"
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze me... Where are the two guests?"
The girls finally stopped. They looked to the left and looked again, but they couldn't see the figures of the two men just now. "It's really strange, where did they go?"
"..."
In the Hongxiang Pavilion, no one noticed what happened outside the door, and everyone was immersed in their own bustle.
You Miao walked into the lobby, and there was a table full of guests sitting next to it, a thin woman was surrounded by a big man with a round waist, and they were playing and laughing and pouring wine on each other.
He was silent, walked sideways without saying a word, Xing Ji followed behind him, his smile was full of helplessness.
"My little beauty, let's continue drinking... Whoops who dares to bump into me!"
After walking two steps, the drunken man next to him suddenly raised his wine glass and was about to hit You Miao's chin. He was about to dodge, but Xing Ji who followed behind him had already made a move. He took a cup and threw it over.
The two wine glasses collided and shattered with a "snap", and the wine spilled all over the man. He slapped the water stains on his body, pushed the woman in his arms away, put his hands on the table, and stood up straight. .
"Who, who is..."
You Miao looked at him quietly.
"...", the man's face was flushed from drinking, and the scenery in his sight was jumping up, down, left, and right. He saw You Miao at a glance, and mistook him for the girl in the building. He only felt that the person in front of him was thin and straight, with a cold temperament, Although he can't see his face clearly, his figure alone is enough to make people fascinated.
"Hey, the beauty is new here. I haven't seen you before. In this way, if you accompany me to have a drink or two, I won't care about this matter with you. How about it?"
The man looked at You Miao lewdly, and was about to move his hands and feet while speaking, but his outstretched hand hadn't touched the corner of You Miao's clothes, so he couldn't move any further.
I saw that You Miao's eyes changed at some point, the black in the pupils became less and less, leaving only a narrow vertical pupil.
The man watched, cold sweat was already streaming down his forehead, and a strong sense of fear emerged spontaneously. He subconsciously wanted to run, but he couldn't move.
In a critical moment, Xing Ji came over, hesitantly patted Downstream Miao on the shoulder, "Don't argue with him, let's go up."
You Miao nodded, turned around and went up the stairs to the second floor.
In the lobby on the first floor, the people who were seated with the man were still waiting to watch the fun, but after seeing the man standing up to face the strange young man, there was no movement for a long time, and he couldn't help wondering: "Old Wang, everyone is gone, you are still standing there what?"
The girl who was pushed away by the man just came over again, wrapped her arms around the man's neck, and blew hot air next to his ear, "Boss Wang, what's wrong with you, I will continue to drink with you..."
As You Miao went up to the second floor, the man called Boss Wang moved his fingers, and finally recovered from the weird feeling just now, he stretched out his hand to wipe off the cold sweat, and woke up from the wine.
"Drink, drink, you know how to drink!" Boss Wang pulled the woman's arm and threw her aside, picked up the wine jar on the table, raised his head and swallowed gulply, and then before the others could react, he poured the wine He put the altar heavily on the table, and walked out of the Hongxiang Pavilion quickly.
While walking, he said: "Damn it, I just drank flower wine, why does it feel like I have walked through the gate of hell? This is really wrong."
