The merit system of the city

"What now?"

Chen Tianqiao looked at Xu Lai and asked.

"Don't worry yet, but you'd better stay outside."

Xu Lai said to Shejiu and Chen Tianqiao.

Snake Jiu nodded.

At this time, the old lady suddenly said: "There are so many guests here. You are all cold. Let me light the fire."

The old lady walked to the fireplace next to her.

Xu Xinxiang said quickly: "Ma'am, we're not cold, so there's no need to light the fire."

In a place like this, wood is definitely not cheap.

She was kind-hearted and didn't want the old lady to waste these things.

Xu Lai glanced at the fireplace and his expression suddenly changed.

"Look into the fireplace!"

Xu Xinxiang and Hu Si looked over, and they immediately took a breath!

I saw that there were still some things in the fireplace that were not completely burned!

Those were some distinctly humanoid things!

Did the old lady burn the body?

Soon they discovered that the body did not appear to be human.

Because the old lady came over with a wrapped body and threw it into the fireplace.

Xu Lai and Hu Si looked at each other and realized that this thing with a human form was a kind of monster.

The strong aura of monsters on it is very obvious.

"I remembered, it's a kind of snow monkey!"

She Jiu said from the side at this moment.

"The snow monkey is a kind of monster, but it is very rare. I don't know where the old lady caught it."

sizzle-

By this time, the old lady had lit the snow monkey's body on fire. The snow monkey's body burned, and there was actually a faint aroma.

This may be because of the monster.

But when Chen Tianqiao saw it, his face twitched.

Although snow monkeys are not particularly precious monsters, they are still rare.

Whether it is used as a material for monsters or for other uses, it has great value.

Monsters are very rare in the outside world now.

Even the flesh and blood of demonic beasts is something that many people want to buy if it is well preserved.

Such a precious thing.

When we get here, it’s just fuel.

If ordinary cultivators outside knew about it, they would definitely yell at the prodigal son.

The flesh and blood of monsters is well processed and is very delicious food. The spiritual energy contained in it can also be absorbed by humans.

"These snow monkeys are very weak and cannot reach the supreme realm."

Hu Si said at this time.

"Even so, it's not something an old lady can solve."

Xu Lai whispered.

Xu Xinxiang also knew at this time that the old lady was not simple anymore.

She took two steps back and looked at the old man warily.

"Ma'am, why do you live here alone?"

The old lady's eyes were cloudy, and she thought for a moment and said, "I don't know about this either. I used to live here with my old man, and we even went exploring into the Ice City."

"But later, the old man died, and I was left here alone."

ice city!

She Jiu's eyes lit up and her face turned red due to excitement.

Xu Xinxiang continued to ask: "Honey, how long have you lived here?"

The old lady thought for a moment and said, "How many years has it been... since my wife died?"

She fell into deep thought.

No one interrupted her thoughts.

Xu Lai took a closer look at the old lady and frowned.

"By the way, it's been more than 50 years since my wife died!"

"It's been a long time!"

She said as if talking to herself.

More than 50 years!

Everyone looked at the old lady in shock again.

It's amazing how an old lady can live in a place with [-] to [-] degrees below zero for such a long time!

However, in the eyes of everyone, the old lady did not have any fluctuations in her true energy.

"impossible!"

"How could ordinary people live in this place for so long!"

Hu Si shook his head and looked around deeply.

"By the way, you guys must be hungry because you are just talking. Judging from the looks of you, it is the time when you are young and growing."

"Don't be hungry. Come, grandma will get you something to eat."

The old lady said as she took out a few plates from the side.

Then I looked for it and cut out a few large pieces of beef-like things on the plate.

"Come on, boys and girls, come and have something to eat."

"This thing may not look good, but it tastes good. I've been eating it for decades."

When everyone saw this dark thing that looked like expired beef, they were afraid to eat it.

Xu Lai's eyes lit up a bit as he glanced at them.

He sat down on the spot.

"Thank you, I'm welcome!"

He sat down and started eating.

Chen Tianqiao's expression changed and he said: "You..."

She wanted to stop it, but Xu Lai had already shown off a few times!

"This foodie!"

She glared at Xu Lai fiercely.

But after Xu Lai and his wife showed off one portion, they immediately looked at the other plate.

"What? Don't you eat?"

"Uh, forget it."

Hu Si shook his head quickly.

"Hey, then I'm welcome!"

Xu Lai immediately brought over another portion.

At this time, he waved to the two people outside the door and said, "You two can come in too. There should be no problem."

Chen Tianqiao and She Jiu looked at each other.

Shejiu couldn't wait for a long time.

He walked in immediately.

Chen Tianqiao gritted his teeth and followed into the room.

Shejiu immediately asked the old lady: "How can I get in to Bingcheng?"

The old lady looked at She Jiu nervously and said, "Ice City is not a good place. You can't just go in there. Young man, don't lose your life!"

"My old man was so powerful, but he still couldn't come out in the end."

"It's been 53 years, four months and seven days!"

The old lady obviously didn't have a very good memory, but she remembered the old man's affairs very clearly.

"Hey, back then I tried to persuade the old man to leave quickly, but he didn't believe it and ended up being left inside."

Chen Tianqiao and Xu Xinxiang both dared to move. Their beautiful eyes were red and the water was surging.

Such deep feelings, even though the old man passed away more than 50 years ago, the old lady has never forgotten them.

Xu Lai had already eaten his third portion.

"Senior, to tell you the truth, I have something very important, and I would like to ask you to tell me how to enter the Ice City!"

Snake Jiu knelt down on one knee and asked.

"Young man, what are you doing? Get up quickly."

"Wait, let me think about it..."

The old lady was lost in her thoughts.

By this time Xu Lai had finished his fifth portion.

He had already eaten the portion for the five of them by himself.

After eating, Xu Lai still felt a little unsatisfied.

"Tsk, tsk, although it doesn't taste particularly good, it's really good stuff. You missed it."

"Hmph! Isn't it the snow monkey meat?"

Hu Si said calmly.

"Hey, you know?"

"I'll know it when you eat the second portion." Hu Si raised his head with a bit of pride.

"Then you all know?"

Chen Tianqiao and Xu Xinxiang nodded.

"That doesn't look very tasty, I don't like it."

Xu Xinxiang stuck out her tongue at Xu Lai.

As for that kind of dark stuff, even though she knew it was good, she still didn't want to eat it.
