On the unfortunate days in the underworld
Chapter 22 Pretend to be crazy
They soon came to the house where the city lord was. After shielding the dazzling colors, Huiming found that the world in front of him was much more pleasing to the eye. Just looking at the house, there are three levels inside and outside. Walking in it, you feel like you are facing a deep mountain, but when you turn around suddenly, the terrain suddenly sinks, and the breeze blows on your face, it is like seeing all the small mountains at a glance.The second one enters the yard with four streams of running water, which eventually converge into a lake. Walking on the white jade bridge in the middle of the lake, one finds that the bridge is connected with a hanging ladder made of transparent silk. Looking from a distance, the third gate of the yard seems to be in the middle of the sky. Appears in general.
"It's really rich!" Huiming said to Xiao Changlu excitedly without taking his eyes off, "The things inside are much more luxurious than those in the underworld. Look at the handrails, they are all gold!"
Xiao Changlu was somewhat used to his ignorant appearance, so he snorted and didn't bother to ridicule him.
After pushing open the third door into the courtyard, what appeared in front of us was a majestic hall, not to mention the gold bricks, jade tiles, and gold-painted beams and columns, just the red carpet laid down from the steps directly reached them. Huiming stepped on the red carpet under his feet, feeling the coolness under his feet, thinking that his shoes had no holes recently, quietly lifted the blanket to look, and found that it was made of high-grade good jade.
"My God, I must deduct a few yuan when I come out." Huiming thought to himself, even though he didn't say it out, he deliberately relaxed a little bit under his feet, for fear of trampling on these precious jades.
When they reached the entrance of the main hall, bursts of fragrance came out from the gilded stoves on both sides, and the two servant boys standing at the door each held a fan studded with gemstones to welcome them. After entering the main hall, Huiming raised his head and couldn't see the top because there were all kinds of gold beads and jade curtains hanging in the sky, and he couldn't see the way when he lowered his head, because the white emerald road under his feet directly reflected his face. There was a huge pure gold dragon chair, and the dragon head was stepped on by a fat man.
The man looked in his forties or fifties, all ten fingers were wearing various rings, and he was wearing gold silk satin. Although he was already fat and had no waist, he still tied it in the middle of his body. There are more than a dozen kinds of jade pendants hanging on the belt, and a crown that can no longer be seen on the head, because the beads inlaid on it are so large, just like dozens of eggs that have been peeled off their shells.
Huiming couldn't help but be speechless when he looked at it. This is simply a walking treasure chest. At first he thought this person was fat, but now that he thinks about it, if this person were a little thinner, the weight of the beads alone would make one unable to straighten up. .He secretly brewed his words, and he wanted to be a little more polite and say a few good words so as not to make things stiff.
"Hand over the Goblin Pearl." Xiao Changlu's tone was not kind, preemptively speaking.
Hearing this sentence, Huiming's face was full of confusion, and he thought to himself: "Brother, you are too good at chatting with others. This sentence will not block all of our retreats."
Sure enough, the city lord on the stage raised his chin disdainfully when he heard his words, expressing his dissatisfaction with his shaking flesh, "I don't know what beads you are talking about."
"I'll say it again, hand over the beads." Xiao Changlu said coldly.At this time, Huiming took the little fox and retreated silently to the corner.
"Hmph, you dare to be so rude to me, be careful when I slap your mouth." As soon as the city lord finished speaking, Xiao Changlu Apparated to him, stretched out his hand and slapped you twice.
With a sound of "crash", all the beads on the crown hat on the city lord's head were scattered all over the ground, and he looked at Xiao Changlu in a dumbfounded manner, while Huiming and the little fox picked up the beads diligently and secretly.
"You dare to hit me!" The city lord was very angry. He waved his hand and called all the guards outside. He spit out a long red light like a sword from his mouth, and he raised his breath and barely jumped three times. He used all his strength to slash at Xiao Changlu's head, and with a "bang", Xiao Changlu broke the sword with one hand, and the city lord sat on the ground with his buttocks, and all the messy things in his body fell to the ground. Seeing this scene, the guards in the audience chose to be silent collectively.
"Last time, where are the beads?" Xiao Changlu said.
"Beads, the beads are with me, but we picked them up outside. We didn't kill the glutton. After swallowing the beads, it suddenly burned up and turned into a layer of skin. I really didn't kill it." The city lord hastily argued that he thought Xiao Changlu was someone who was invited to deal with him, and he was afraid that he would do something to him.
"I only care about the beads." Xiao Changlu stretched out his hand. Seeing this, the city lord lifted up the flesh on his stomach with a sad face, and the goblin beads slipped out, picked it up and handed it to Xiao Changlu.
Xiao Changlu felt a little slippery while holding the beads, and his face twitched slightly, but he finally resisted the feeling and put the beads away.
"Immortal," the city lord saw that Xiao Changlu was about to leave, and suddenly made a move, stepped forward to hug his thigh, and said in a weeping tone: "The people of our city are pitiful. I can give you this bead, but this will deprive you of the bead." This is our last hope. Although we are all gods and beasts, our bloodlines are already weakened, so we barely survived in the spiritual world left by our ancestors. It was nothing to practice here, but the Dragon Clan took away our treasure. Now, look at the people in our city, the longer they grow, the uglier they are, they don’t look like the descendants of Phoenix at all.”
"Ah, you are Phoenix!" Huiming said in surprise.
His surprise made the city lord even more sad, and he lamented: "Since you don't let us keep the beads, then help us get the treasure back, on behalf of all of us in Fengqi City, I am grateful to you. "
"By the way, there is another thing," the city lord took out another thing from under his belly, "This is the tooth of their dragon ancestors. If you take this, you can definitely get the feather back." After speaking, he took the lead and cried When he came out, the guards below saw the city lord crying, and all of them cried out.
Amidst the pain in the room, Xiao Changlu faced the greasy teeth and did not move at all, while Huiming who was next to him took it over with quick eyes and hands, and comforted the city owner: "Don't worry, we will definitely help you."
Xiao Changlu didn't want to be nosy, but Huiming hugged his other leg and begged, "Brother Xiao, do good deeds every day, you see these phoenixes look like golden pheasants, how can you bear it?" The little fox next to him also followed suit. With Huiming in his eyes, he yelled loudly.
Probably annoyed by these people, Xiao Changlu nodded his head and reluctantly agreed, then he kicked one by one, threw away Huiming and the city lord, and strode out.
"City Lord, why do you want to buy so many gems and jade?" Huiming asked the City Lord curiously before leaving.
"Noodles~" The city lord's flesh shook three times, and he answered quite sincerely.
Just as Xiao Changlu and Huiming walked away, the city lord sat down on the chair again, called an attendant, and suddenly said with a different person: "You go and tell Long Xian, or he takes the goblin bead, or Send it back to Feng Yu."
"City Lord, why didn't we resist that person just now?" the guard asked in puzzlement.
"One is that I can't resist, and the strength is very different. The second is that I have tried this goblin bead, and it is only harmful to us. Even if the skill is greatly improved, it will be backlashed sooner or later. God's will, I can only rely on myself." The city lord sighed With a sound, the flesh on his body shook three more times.
"Brother Xiao, how could that city lord be a phoenix? It doesn't look like it." Hui Ming couldn't help asking, still obsessed with what happened just now.
"Pretending to be crazy." Xiao Changlu gave a four-word evaluation, then stopped suddenly, afraid that Huiming would not understand, and added: "It's different from you."
"Different from me?" Huiming thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out what it meant.
"It's really rich!" Huiming said to Xiao Changlu excitedly without taking his eyes off, "The things inside are much more luxurious than those in the underworld. Look at the handrails, they are all gold!"
