The Emperor's Daughter Arrives: Upgrade to Fight Monsters and Find Husbands

As the carriage drove into the city, Zhuzhu nestled in Jiutang's arms, letting Jiutang smooth her fur and snore comfortably.

Those two idiots actually dared to frustrate their master here openly. They really thought they were easy to bully, right? This time it was good, but it was a disaster, and half of my life was lost.

Live it!

Two shrill wails came from under the city wall, mixed with the sound of whips that broke through the air.

"Those two are probably gone." Lin Shishi opened the car curtain and looked behind.

We haven't gone far yet, but we can still clearly see the situation below the city.

After hearing the captain's order, two burly men took out a long whip with a body covered with barbs. The whole body of the whip was black and red, but a small section of white was exposed at the end of the whip. It can be seen that it must have been soaked in blood for a long time.

Now he was using his spiritual power to slap the two people hard one after another, not shying away from the eyes of onlookers. In military terms, this is called serving as a warning to others and serving as a warning to future generations. Only the more severe the punishment, the better to warn future generations not to make such mistakes again.

After a few blows, the dark red color on the whip became more intense. And the backs of those two people were a blur. Even if I could save my life, I wouldn't be able to get out of bed for several months.

"Guys, wait a minute." The captain looked back and saw that Lin's carriage was about to drive away and shouted.

The boy quickly reined in his horse, got out of the car and looked at the captain waving to him. He hurried over and after the two exchanged a few words, the young man returned to the car and called the second lady softly.

Lin Shishi opened the curtain of the carriage, looked down and asked, "What did he say?"

The boy glanced back:

"The captain said that today's incident was due to their lax discipline, which made the lady suffer. But now that the punishment has been given, please don't mind it.

In the past few days, the inns in the city have been full for a long time. I thought it was getting late and it would be difficult for us to find a place to stay if we were new here. So in order to express our apology, we are invited to go to the inn set up by the government to rest. There are a few vacant rooms there all year round, and the surrounding environment is acceptable. "

Lin Shishi turned back and glanced at Jiutang. Jiutang met her eyes and nodded: "Promise. You can't let down other people's good intentions."

Today's matter is their fault. If the ladies from other families outside see it, it will inevitably leave a reputation as a bully. Regardless of whether it's true or not, it's reasonable to comfort them just for the sake of face, and just let it go when it's good.

And what the captain said was true. At this time, the scale of concubine selection is so large, and there are so many people, it is not convenient to find a place to live.

The captain assigned two people to take Lin's carriage to Shang'an Station in the center of the city.

Shang'an Station was established by the government and has an excellent geographical location. The price is expensive, mainly for aristocratic families and wealthy businessmen to stay. After all, ordinary people cannot afford the high price. Just one meal here is equivalent to the expenses of an ordinary family for one or two months.

The front yard is open to the public for profit, and as long as you pay the minimum price, you can live here; the back yard is often empty, and only officials with higher status can live here.

The captain was in charge of half of the imperial city's troops at a young age. His family had many generals, and his status in the Ruli Kingdom was extremely high.

Jiu Tang and his party just caught up with this opportunity, otherwise they would not be able to enter this place as outsiders from a third-class country.

Under the escort of two guards, Jiutang and his party arrived at the door of Shang'an Station very smoothly.

There were crowds of people in front of Shang'an Station, and there was an endless stream of small businessmen and hawkers. Looking inside the inn through the window, the first floor is the dining hall. The diners sitting inside are all dressed in splendid clothes. Delicate and beautiful maids interspersed among them, serving rice and tea.

After a few people got out of the car, the boy pulled the carriage away. Several people stepped into the gate of the inn.

Xiaozhi got off the carriage at the back, rushed to Jiutang in two or three steps, and held Jiutang's hand tightly - when they were about to set off, Xiaozhi held her skirt and shed tears. Jiutang really felt a little bit unbearable, so she could only take him out. However, the two of them also agreed that after returning, they would go to the academy to practice.

With the help of the Lin family's power, Xiaozhi can easily enter Yunhua College.

Just stepped into the door of the inn. Jiu Tang frowned slightly.

"It's evil!" Jiu Tang secretly thought, a little surprised.

Just now she was far away, she just felt that the atmosphere here was a little strange. She didn't expect that the evil spirit in Shang'an Station was so obvious. She was sure of it the moment she entered.

This aura... seems to appear in the north, which is the backyard of Shang'an Station. It's just that the scope of Shang'an Station is very large, and the backyard also occupies a very large area. It's not easy to determine where exactly it appears.

"Demon?" Zhuzhu jumped out of Jiutang's arms and sniffed carefully.

"Ah? What is that?" Zhuzhu didn't smell it, because its memory only started from the time of the Jiuzhao War. At that time, it was activated by Jiu Zhaotang's blood and began to have life. Although I had some awareness before, I had never seen demons, so naturally I couldn't tell their auras.

Jiu Tang said with certainty: "Yes, it is a demon, and it seems that the cultivation level is not weak. Beings that can cultivate into human form and have human essence in their bodies are called demons."

The group of people walked into the inn, unaware that Jiu Tang was having a small meeting with the little white cat on the ground, sticking out its buttocks and wiggling.

"Well...that's it." Zhuzhu seemed to understand.

"Well. At the beginning of the world, all living beings lived on the same land. They gradually differentiated, and some who were completely unable to absorb spiritual power were still ordinary people; those who were able to cultivate spirits gradually ascended to become immortals and gods; as for some living beings... Although it is in the form of an animal or plant, because it has been with humans for thousands of years, it gradually has human essence in its body, and it transforms into a human form, becoming a demon.

As for the beasts that have not absorbed human essence at all, they are the spirit beasts we know as Warcraft. "

"So I said, the aura inside is that of a great demon! - Of course, this is relative to this lower interface."

Zhuzhu: “I understand!”

"But demons are just like humans, they have good and bad qualities. If they are among the crowd and are ordinary people, let them be. But if they are doing evil..." Jiu Tang paused. Looking deep inside, if you happen to meet her, don't blame her for being nosy.

A group of people entered the inn. When a waiter saw the two leading city guards, he hurried forward and greeted with a smile on his face: "Master, you two are..."

"The guests our captain is specially greeting, all the expenses at this inn will be paid for by Lord Yu, the city guarding general. Later, we will arrange a nice courtyard in the backyard for them to greet them properly."

The task was completed and the people were delivered. The two guards walked away.

"Yes." The waiter nodded.

After several people had eaten, the waiter led them to the backyard.

Jiu Tang couldn't help but frown: that aura... seemed to have disappeared. It should have been closer and the smell stronger, but now I can't feel it at all.

"Sister, I'm a little sleepy, sister." Lin Shishi yawned and said goodbye, "I'm going to sleep first, sister. Goodbye, sister."

"it is good."

Lin Shishi and Jiu Tang each had a room, and the two maids shared a room. Xiao Zhi was held by the boy brought by Lin Mansion, and he reluctantly let go of Jiu Tang's clothes.

After Jiu Tang washed up, he tossed and turned on the big bed, unable to fall asleep.

So he sat up and lit a candle on the bedside. The quality of the candle seemed not to be very good, the light flickered on and off, flickering intermittently. The room was already dark, but looking at the candle not only did not make people feel warmer, it actually made them more anxious.

A few of them, seeing no one around, jumped out to let loose.

"Master, it doesn't seem like there's anything special." A vine jumped on the ground and reached Jiutang's bed. Jiu Tang picked up one end and threw it down with a squeak.

"It's unreasonable for demons to appear in this place, so be careful." Although the aura disappeared, there was no telling when it would come back.

It's always better to be careful.

Thousands of years ago, the Lord of the Demon Clan opened up a new interface and collectively recalled the tribesmen living in various interfaces. So since then, the demon clan has been living in groups in the demon world. There, it is more suitable for their growth.

Although there are sporadic big demons who have not returned to the demon world, they all dominate the world where they have abundant spiritual power. It is really unreasonable to come to this lower-level interface with poor spiritual power.

Just as Jiu Tang was thinking about it, there was a sudden knock on the door outside. It was particularly obvious in this silent night. The knocking on the door was intermittent, knocking three times in succession, then stopping for a moment, then continuing.

Jiu Tang quickly stood up and put on his clothes. Through the dim oil lamp, he only saw a black shadow floating on the door: "Who?"

The howling autumn wind blew outside, and the voices of the people coming were a little vague and vague, sounding like men and women, with a bit of weirdness.

"Replying to the guest, I am the maid in this inn. It is dry and dry, so I ask the guest to stay in the room and rest early. If you have nothing else to do, please don't go out and walk around." The voice did not waver.

"Understood, you go back."

The dark shadow of the visitor projected on the door and window was swayed a little more by the wind, trembling. After a second's pause, there was the sound of clattering footsteps, which disappeared after a while.

Jiu Tang sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes slightly thoughtful.

"Mom, something feels wrong here." Ayan curled up into a ball and huddled under the quilt.

"Tell me, what's wrong is wrong." Jiu Tang pulled another quilt over and made a warm nest around it.

I wonder if Ayan is used to turning into a snake, and even his habits have gradually changed. It has been hiding in warm places for the past few days. According to it, it can't help but want to sleep in cold places.

Maybe it's hibernation. Jiu Tang thinks so.

Ayan held it in for a long time and spit out two words: "Intuition."

Hmm... She didn't realize when Ayan started to trust his intuition.

Jiu Tang thought for two seconds, got up from the bed, and changed into simple and neat clothes.

It's okay if you remind others of this. After all, the atmosphere is set, and they might really be obedient. But she happens to be a person who can't hide her curiosity, but now she is not allowed to go out, so she insists on going out.

I couldn't sleep anyway, so I just thought I'd come out to get some air.

Pushing open the door, a cool breeze blew in, bringing with it the slight chill of early autumn.

Jiu Tang flew up to the roof and lay on the roof, the sound of wind passing by his ears.

At this time, everything was quiet, and even the sound of insects was rarely heard, only one or two faint sounds occasionally. But today's moon is very bright, shining on the ground, reflecting a little light.

Jiu Tang closed her eyes, and the moonlight fell on her face, covering her face with a dreamy veil, making the beautiful land a bit unreal. As if falling asleep, he closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them again.

The girl was standing on the wall. Although she had an ordinary appearance, standing there alone at this moment still had a feeling that people couldn't ignore.

Jiu Tang stood on a high place and looked into the distance. All he could see were bright and warm lights.

This yard is located in the southwest of the backyard. Going south is the front yard, which is very convenient to enter and exit. After leaving Shang'an Station, not long after walking, there was a market and amusement park in the southeast.

It's just midnight, and it's busy outside. But in this small courtyard, only her room could see a glimmer of light from the outside, and the others had turned off the lights early to rest.

Get off the wall and walk towards the door. Before she took two steps, Luo Chuan appeared in front of her.

"Miss Ninth. It's so late, where are you going?"

"I couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk." Jiutang raised his head, "Just when I was about to go to bed, someone knocked on the door, so I'm not sleepy now."

"Someone knocked on the door?" Luo Chuan was surprised. "My subordinates have been guarding the courtyard. Not to mention someone knocking on the door, I didn't even see anyone."

Jiu Tang frowned lightly, doubting in his heart, but remained calm: "Maybe I heard wrong, maybe it was the wind. You stay here and I'll go out for a walk."

Luochuan didn't notice anything. Now occasionally the wind blows and hits the door, making a sound like knocking on the door. It’s normal for Miss Jiu to hear wrongly.

Too strange. According to Luochuan's cultivation, how could no one be noticed.

Could it be that the person who came just now was not a human being at all?

wrong!

Jiu Tang immediately rejected his idea. Although there was a door between them and his voice was a little blurry, someone must have come just now, and his cultivation level was probably in the heartbeat stage.

Seeing Luo Chuan trying to follow him, Jiu Tang turned around and said in a serious tone with a hint of doubt: "I'm just going to the front yard for a walk. I'll be back soon."

She wanted to go see what it was.

Jiu Tang walked around dragging his family with him: A Yan was wrapped around his head, Xiao Yu was wrapped around his arm, and Zhu Zhu was held in his arms.

One person and three animals walked to the front yard along the way they came. Unexpectedly, the whole journey was gray. It was already dark and early, so we could only see the road ahead clearly through the dim moonlight. Fortunately, monks have better perception than ordinary people; if they are ordinary people, it is really difficult to walk.

After a while of burning incense, Jiu Tang slowly walked to the front yard, slightly surprised.

Two hours ago, there were many guests here. Unexpectedly, just after such a while, there was no one here, only a kerosene lamp above the head flickering brightly and dimly.

Just when Jiu Tang stood there. A voice suddenly came from behind, which was a bit abrupt in the empty hall.

"Why are you out so late? Guest?"
