The villain's daily corpse collection

As the sky gradually darkened, the temperature dropped sharply, with a huge temperature difference from daytime.

There were some people holding silk nets and a few pedestrians on the street, but otherwise it was a very quiet and lonely place.

The master and the disciple braved the thick fog and arrived at Yucheng Inn, which was the largest inn in Fangqiu and the brightest on the entire street.

The building is about four or five stories high, and the top floor is buried in the fog, so it is hard to see clearly. But judging from the business of the restaurant, you can tell that outsiders live here, with many different accents and distinctive clothes.

As soon as she stepped into the bustling inn, Wang Wei's body trembled uncontrollably. She secretly estimated when this fragile body would break down.

Finding the fragments of the divine body was urgent, and as long as one was found, the situation might be relieved a little. Wang Wei cheered up and looked around.

Huo Feng beside her took out a goose feather cloak from the space storage bag disguised as a bag and put it on Wang Wei. When Wang Wei reached out to grab the collar of her clothes, she touched Huo Feng's warm fingers, and she realized that her body was so abnormally cold.

"Master, why are your hands so cold? You were like this before in Tianzhou. What's the reason?" Huo Feng showed concern and confusion.

"No problem."

She absolutely could not admit that she was now a little stiff from the cold. This was the feeling only the weak had. How could she become like this after coming down to earth?

I hope to fool myself, but I can't fool myself. This body is neither human nor god, but a pool of wild water. Who can expect a pool of water to generate heat on its own in the cold spring season?

"Let's go to the room in a bit. I'll ask the store owner to help prepare the heater." Huo Feng said, "Boss, we need two rooms."

"The heater is a common item in every room," the shopkeeper responded. "You two guests should be staying in the hotel. Our hotel is divided into three levels according to heaven, earth and people. There are still some rooms left in the Tianzi room, but there are not many left. There are still..." The shopkeeper looked at the registration list while glancing towards the entrance of the inn. "I'm sorry, guests, there is only room number 12 left. Xiao Li, please take the two guests upstairs."

Wang Wei observed secretly and pulled Huo Feng to convey his voice: "I sense that there are at least a few rooms vacant. What does the shopkeeper mean? Is there something wrong with this store? Is there any danger?"

Huo Feng replied in a voice transmission: "I just looked at the charging method of this store. During the peak season, the price is charged by the number of people. All merchants are dishonest. The innkeeper wants to make more money from more customers."

It turned out that he was just after money. She was too vigilant and thought there would be an ambush.

"Well, we don't have to lie down to sleep like ordinary people anyway, so it doesn't matter how many rooms we have." Wang Wei responded, but in her heart she was thinking that it would be good to be closer to her own power so that she would feel more at ease.

Huo Feng originally thought that Wang Wei would mind. After all, most masters would establish their prestige in front of their disciples and always keep a distance from them to avoid showing weakness and affecting their authority.

The waiter brought the two into Room No. 20 on the top floor. The room was spacious and brightly lit. There was a wider screen for changing clothes, as well as a heater and incense burner.

"Master, I thought you would mind living in the same room with me." After Huo Feng closed the door, he couldn't help but speak.

"What I care about most is the power in your body. Other things are not important. I am not that picky and I don't mind these trivial matters. Sometimes you can make your own decisions."

Wang Wei's skill in mixing truth and lies became more and more sophisticated. She knew that only by speaking the truth could people feel her sincerity. So, she would process and embellish it.

Rather than saying that other things are unimportant, she simply doesn't care. She doesn't belong here, and being tainted by the karma of the mortal world will do her no good but harm.

"Master, let me warm your hands."

Huo Feng handed the hand warmer on the couch to Wang Wei, "Master, you came out this time for me. Thank you for your concern. If I do anything bad in the future, please stop me."

What can he do wrong? With her around, it's not his turn, okay? Hope it's for criticism.

However, this heater and cloak are both good, and when she was feeling uncomfortable in the guest boat before, Huo Feng also lent her his shoulder to lean on.

Thinking back to the few monster disciples she had accepted in the past, there were well-behaved but foolishly loyal ones, while others went crazy and could not be stopped... There were too few calm and reliable ones, and none of them could change their nature as monsters.

Huo Feng was supposed to be a human in the past. She had never met people who ascended to become gods when she was in heaven, and it was not until she came down to earth this time that she had a preliminary understanding of the human race.

The two of them sat on the couch and began to sort out today's news.

"Master, who is talking to you today?" Huo Feng asked first.

"He knows a lot of things. Things like gambling on stones and eating jade. No wonder so many gods in heaven like to go down, the mortal world seems to be quite interesting."

"The mortal world is very interesting. If I have time, I will definitely take Master to see my hometown." Huo Feng invited. In fact, his impression of his hometown was already very vague. Thousands of years had passed and the world had changed dramatically.

"Where is your hometown?"

"A village under Qingyu City. However, it should be gone now."

"Why?"

"It's been too long. Things in the mortal world are always changing. It's not like the heavenly world, where maybe not much has changed in the past thousand years."

Huo Feng put down the stove in his hand and told the information he got while queuing. He visited some caravans and learned that Fangqiu in this city has the largest jade vein in the country. They have a unique advantage. The mountains next to them are not obstacles, but stones for making money.

This is also the place where the largest amount of jade trading takes place, and the trend of cultivating immortality and seeking longevity is prevalent throughout the country, especially the dignitaries in various places, all of whom have a hobby of eating jade.

They were skeptical about the idea of ​​immortality, but there was a precedent for the health benefits of eating jade, which was recorded in detail in medical books. Moreover, the current emperor of Yangdu also did this, so whether they believed it or not, they had to get involved.

The two quickly checked the news and picked out a few key words - gambling on jade stones, eating jade, and a jade banquet that was about to begin.

Wang Wei: “It’s all about jade?”

Huo Feng: “Yes.”

The two asked about similar topics, and everything seemed to be related to the city's most dazzling achievements. They also heard people mention two famous jade families, one surnamed Rong and the other surnamed Shi.

"The lost artifact we are looking for is probably related to jade. But..." Wang Wei hesitated. Huo Feng: "But what?"

"This is a jade city, and there may be unmined jade mines all over the mountains and plains. I have no idea what the characteristics of the artifact are." Wang Wei pointed out the key point.

Huo Feng realized the problem: "Fang Qiu, the Jade City, it will probably take a long time to slowly explore such a city. Fortunately, this force has not moved much recently, maybe we..."

"No, the absence of unusual movements does not mean absolute safety. We don't have time to waste." Her tone was firm.

Wang Wei couldn't wait even a moment because it concerned her life and death.

She dared not forget that the Fire God had been waiting for her in the human territory for a long time, and she didn't know when he would suddenly appear and chase her. She couldn't rely on luck. This was just a God. There were more powerful gods in the sky than just Yinghuo, and anyone could suddenly appear in front of her.

Huo Feng pondered: "If it is a divine weapon, there should be special induction or signs that allow us to identify it immediately."

"First, it has to appear in front of us." Wang Wei sighed, "Let's start by asking around from the gambling stone and the Quan Yu Banquet tomorrow. It would be best if we can get an invitation. And as for those two families, we need to pay more attention to them."

Huo Feng nodded: "Okay, Master."

"You've been traveling all day. Have a good rest. We have a lot of things to do tomorrow." After Wang Wei said this, he sat down on the couch and meditated without saying anything else.

Huo Feng was surprised at the execution ability. He was bored, so he sat down on the other side.

Suddenly he changed his place and started living again. He found it difficult to calm down for a while, so he kept adjusting his meditation posture.

The recent events kept circling in his mind, and he couldn't stop his thoughts from flying. This couch was neither too big nor too small, and as he adjusted it, Huo Feng unknowingly sat next to Wang Wei.

Wang Wei, who is usually very vigilant, was not affected by Huo Feng at this moment. She closed her eyes and her breathing was steady and normal.

Perhaps it was because she was too tired from the unfamiliar climate, or perhaps she did not take the living beings in the mortal world seriously. She did not tense up, but went straight into meditation to practice.

Huo Feng placed his palm in front of her and shook it, but there was no movement.

He moved closer and looked at her carefully, her flawless face showing almost no signs of aging, but her long, cascading hair was covered with snow that had not melted for a long time.

He carefully touched the trigger tail.

——It’s real white hair.

Even the color of the eyelashes and eyebrows is extremely light.

Generally, only extremely old gods can have white hair, and this extremely old age must contain some traces of the vicissitudes of life. For example, Jinde Shenzun - a god who has lived for an unknown period of time and is highly respected, is known to everyone in the heavens.

Another possibility is that he practiced some special skills and his hair turned white naturally.

The master should be the latter, Huo Feng gave a preliminary judgment within his cognition. He regretted that he did not build good relationships with gods when he was on duty in the Heavenly Palace, and did not communicate more with his colleagues about the strange things in the heavens. As a result, he could not remember any gods in the heavens with white hair.

Moreover, in that dream of his, she clearly had a jet-black flying bun. What on earth made her look like this?

"I can't ask directly, she will definitely give me an excuse..." Huo Feng thought randomly and gradually entered a state of concentration.

Soon, the sky was getting light and the view outside the window was blurry. The thick morning fog prevented Xian Yang from entering the city in time, but the city had already woken up for a long time.

I opened the window and saw the brightly lit morning under the fog.

Downstairs, there was also a thick fog. In the fog, there were many people vaguely visible, holding some kind of silk nets, hanging everywhere, mostly gathered at high places.

I hope you don't understand and wonder what kind of custom this is in the mortal world.

At this time, someone knocked on the door. Huo Feng went to open the door and found that it was Xiao Li, the waiter who sent them upstairs yesterday.

"Our Tianzi Room offers free breakfast and tea. I've brought them to you." Xiao Li respectfully held up a tray with a few cakes and a small pot of tea on it.

Wang Wei called out to Xiao Li: "You people here are so strange, what are you doing so early in the morning?"

Xiao Li replied: "In reply to your honorable guest, they are trying to capture fog and hide water."

"What do you mean?"

"As we all know, there is drought and little rain all over the country. We in Fangqiu are lucky."

He walked to the window and pointed in a direction. "There are forests and mountains on both sides. That one is called... oh, right, it's called humidity. It's greater than other areas, so there's a lot of fog in the morning and evening. Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, several rangers passed by this place and discovered the advantages of Fangqiu. They came up with a way to collect fog water as the main source of water for Fangqiu."

"It's not clean to collect fog water from everywhere and drink it directly." Huo Feng was worried.

"Of course! There was a powerful female knight among the knights. She said that if you expose it to the sun for half an hour and boil it before using it, it will be fine. Later, people followed her advice and have been using it ever since. Now Fangqiu is much more relaxed about water use than other areas."

No matter how dire the circumstances, these mortals are desperately trying to find ways to survive.

"If they hadn't stayed in our inn back then and this event hadn't been recorded, I would really believe that they were gods!" Xiao Li straightened his back and was quite proud, as if this inn was opened by his family.

"Xiao Li, the room number 2 needs to be cleaned for the guests!" the shopkeeper shouted downstairs.

"Coming right up! If you two gentlemen have anything to tell me, please let me know." Xiao Li bowed to the two of them and ran out of the room.

Wang Wei had never expected that the conflict with the Heavenly Palace over "cutting off water" would have such a far-reaching impact. Just like she had never expected that "throwing away the corpse of the god" would unexpectedly help the demons living on the other side of the mortal world to be reborn.

Whatever happens in the mortal world, it has nothing to do with her.

"Today we will split up. I will go to find out about the gambling on stones, and you will go to investigate the matter of eating jade."

"Okay, leave it to me." The two reached a consensus.

Wang Wei took out a local map of Fangqiu and spread it on the table. She pointed to a location near the center of the map. "There is a tower that looks pretty tall. We will meet here at noon."

"This should be a temple. The sign above seems to be... the Earth Official Temple." Huo Feng distinguished carefully.

Wang Wei: “…”

There are three great emperors in heaven: the Heavenly Official bestows blessings, the Earthly Official forgives sins, and the Water Official relieves disasters.

Fangqiu values ​​commerce, and has good luck with the right time, right place, and right people. However, a series of problems arising from commercial development are unavoidable.

Merchants always make mistakes for the sake of profit. They need spiritual liberation and self-salvation, so the Temple of the Earth Official is particularly important. Merchants in Fangqiu all believe in the Earth Official and hope that he can forgive them. They pray that after their death, they will not be thrown into the eighteen levels of hell and suffer endless torture.

The Great Emperor Diguan, who is in heaven, has also visited the Demon God's Nameless Palace many times.

At that time, Wang Wei had just ascended to the throne of the Demon God and was at the height of her fame. He kindly offered to help Wang Wei strip away the Demon God's power so that she would not become the target of public criticism.

Wang Wei laughed at his stupidity. She relied on the power of the demon god to stay here. Even if there was a way to get rid of this power in the future, she would not agree. She was not stupid and would not seek death.

Seeing that he could not be persuaded, the Earth Official Emperor pretended to be a spoiled child and sat quietly in front of the palace. After a lot of trouble, Wang Wei called Hun Dun, one of the four ancient fierce beasts, to take the Earth Official Emperor out of Chenzhongtian.

What was rare was that the Earth Emperor was not angry. He stood up, patted his butt and left. When he left, he also plucked a few handfuls of Hun Dun's soft fur that was as white as clouds in the sky. Hun Dun was so angry that he ate five meals a day.

Huo Feng went out first. He knew that his master didn't want to eat, so he packed up the pastries with a handkerchief and left the tea for Wang Wei.

Wang Wei was watching his back from upstairs and said with emotion, "I didn't expect this kid to come down to earth to satisfy his appetite. Eating shouldn't affect my strength, right?"

She picked up the plate and carefully sniffed the lingering aroma of the remaining pastry crumbs.

Sweet?
