The villain is soft and clingy [Transmigration Book]

"Zhang Lan, if you keep taking pictures like this, the table will collapse." Wang Ze said calmly, "We don't have enough funds, so we have to save money."

As soon as he said this, Zhang Lan was scared immediately, and Nuonuo quickly took his hand back.

Her face was full of grievances, the corners of her eyes were slightly red from excitement, holding the wooden sword in her arms, she muttered angrily: "No, if Yunji continues to do this, it will be fine."

Wang Ze gathered the scattered booklets, stacked them on one side, and said, "So what are you going to do?"

"I don't know either." Zhang Lan sighed and leaned against the table slumped, "I never knew there was such a ranking, and I never thought that Zhang Kuang, who was born with a gray face, would be able to take the top spot."

Compared with Yanling Hongjue, who is known as the most beautiful woman in the world, who likes to grab oirans in various red buildings, or Zihuan Xianling, who goes around preaching and teaching, Zhang Kuang is much more low-key, and basically has not shown it in front of the public a few times noodle.

Although according to the onlookers in Suomo Tower at that time, Zhang Kuang was born with first-class beauty, but in fact, most people have never seen Zhang Kuang's appearance.

Because the masses can only imagine one or two things, it has led to crazy portraits on the market. It can be said that they are uneven in height, short, fat and thin, and none of them are accurate.

Zhang Lan sighed melancholy, and said: "Just now I beat up two people, they cried and said that they would vote for the senior sister, and I don't know if they voted, it's really annoying."

Wang Ze: "..."

He looked at his unreliable teammates, and felt that it was really not okay to go on like this: "Zhang Lan, you can't just start beating people without talking to them."

Wang Ze said earnestly and persuasively, "For the sake of the future, when you persuade people, you must understand them with emotion and reason, otherwise those people who voted this year will definitely not vote next year, so what should I do?"

Zhang Lan really wanted to say, "I'll be beaten again next year", but what Wang Ze said seemed very reasonable, and she couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

While the two were talking, Jin Li brought the two of them over, and Da Yuanyuan raised his hand and waved vigorously, shouting, "Look who's here?"

Wang Ze only heard a "bang", the small wooden sword hit the table, and the person in front of him was gone.

Zhang Lan ran over like a whirlwind, rushed to Xia Zhitao without stopping, looked up at him, her eyes bent into a crescent shape from corner to eye tip: "Senior Sister!"

She said cheerfully, "Long time no see."

Xia Zhitao looked down at the other party, stretched out her hand to help Zhang Lan pull a strand of black hair behind her ears, slightly bent her eyebrows, and smiled, with a gentle voice:

"Well, long time no see."

.

Zhang Lan didn't realize that there was nothing left of her vest, she had been stripped clean by her senior sister long ago, and she was still excited there.

"Senior Sister, it's been a long time since you've been here," she said calmly, "Baihetang, and Youzhou together, it's almost been several months."

Xia Zhitao laughed inwardly, secretly saying that you have been with me all this time, you know exactly how many days have passed.

She shrugged and said calmly: "Almost, I heard Wang Yan said that you have been retreating, how is your cultivation progress?"

Xia Zhitao's words hit the bull's-eye. Zhang Lan had never practiced in the retreat cave at all, and the time she really stayed in it was no more than an hour.

She couldn't help but froze for a moment, feeling a little flustered, and whispered: "Ah, very good."

Facing Xia Zhitao's leisurely gaze, Zhang Lan bit the bullet and said nonsense: "I have been practicing in the cave for a long time, and I have advanced to the fourth level of foundation building."

Xia Zhitao saw that the child was guilty, so she didn't ask any more questions. She smiled and reached out to rub her hair, saying, "It's amazing."

Zhang Kuang was born tall, half a head taller than Xia Zhitao.If she wanted to touch the other party, she had to raise her arms a little bit harder.

But Zhang Lan is different. This child is a whole head shorter than her. It's like a tailor-made height. It's just right for Xia Zhitao to pinch her face and touch her head easily. .

Xia Zhitao hadn't seen Zhang Lan's white jade face for a long time, she missed her so much, reached out to rub her cheek, and said, "So, what are you guys doing?"

Zhang Lan didn't resist, her cheeks were piled up by her rubbing, and she said vaguely: "Well, we are wooing people on the street, and we will vote for you, Senior Sister."

Zhang Lan's cheeks were really soft, a little fleshy, they would sink in when touched, and the touch was delicate and soft, like a piece of fruit-flavored cotton candy.

Xia Zhitao took the opportunity to pinch it a few times before withdrawing her hand, saying, "Then what's going on with you Senior Sister Jin and Senior Brother Wang?"

Zhang Lan didn't hide anything, and said bluntly, "Jin Li and Wang Ze were brought here by me. We've been busy for three or four days."

Xia Zhitao looked at the banners fluttering in the air and the bound booklets piled up on the table, and couldn't help saying with emotion: "Thank you for your hard work."

"Why do you suddenly think of canvassing for me?" Xia Zhitao smiled, "It's still a beauty ranking, and your senior sister can't be ranked."

Zhang Lan argued: "No way! From my point of view, last year I don't know the top ten beauties in the pavilion, with crooked melons, jujubes, and monkey cheeks, not even one ten-thousandth of your senior sister!"

Xia Zhitao glanced at the beauty rankings before, and those who can make it into the top ten, although they have different postures and looks, are all first-class alluring beauties.

And looking at Zhang Lan's disgusted face, it seems that the other party is not a beauty but a pile of leftover melon seeds, forcibly degrading her to nothing.

Forget it, Xia Zhitao raised her head and rubbed the brows, and sighed helplessly, thinking that the person who took the top spot on the beauty list last year was not you, the leader...

You despise other girls for being unattractive, and it's fine to compare beauties with crooked melons, why are you even scolding yourself!

Zhang Lan was still aggrieved, and was particularly angry at Zhang Kuang for taking the first place. What added fuel to the fire was that Jin Li and Wang Ze, who had gone out to investigate the news, came back and brought another big news:

"A new round of votes has been counted," Wang Ze said calmly, "Move all the books on the table first, so as not to be smashed by Zhang Lanquan."

Xia Zhitao couldn't laugh or cry and said, "It's okay, I'll hold her down."

Wang Ze nodded slightly, carefully spread out the rice paper in his arms, pointed to a few lines of small black ink characters on it, and said calmly: "Li Gu Qiyeyan came with a group of little demons, saying that the whole world is one family, and all voted for Insolent."

Wang Ze's guess was accurate, Zhang Lan immediately exploded when she heard the news, she stood up abruptly and was about to go to the demon forest to beat people, but Xia Zhitao dragged her back with all her talk.

Wang Yan asked curiously from the side: "Yanling Poison Mansion is also the opposite, why didn't Li Gu vote for Hong Jue?"

Wang Ze was silent for a moment, then said, "Maybe it's because the leader is better at fighting?"

Zhang Lan sneered and said, "You can fight, right? If Zhang Kuang wants to hear the news, he will go to Ligu tomorrow and smash their ancient altar, and tell him what it means to be able to fight."

Everyone: "..."

Zhang Lan was obsessed with demolition, and in order to prevent her from violently canvassing votes, Xia Zhitao pushed the little guy down and sent the other three people to go to the market, and stayed with Zhang Lan in a small shed.

There are so many beauties in the world, and they are fat, swallows, and thin. Seeing the votes of others getting more and more, and the gap getting bigger and bigger, Zhang Lan feels bad all over.

She looked sleepy, lying on the table aggrieved, anxiously said: "What to do, what to do, those people have a lot of votes... We haven't increased much."

Xia Zhitao reached out to touch her hair, and comforted her: "Don't be sad, whether it's the ranking or the number of votes, those are just false numbers, and senior sister doesn't care."

"...but I care."

Zhang Lan's voice seemed to be muffled under the quilt, getting smaller and smaller, until finally it had turned into a babble, and she looked extremely aggrieved.

"I think they should all vote for you," Zhang Lan whispered, "You should be the number one, and you should be the number one in any ranking."

The little guy's voice was soft, and because of her grievance, she put on a bit of waxy ending tune, which made her feel soft in her heart, like a branch full of newly blooming peach blossoms, and clusters of petals would fall when shaken.

She stretched out her hands to hold the other's cheeks, the skin under her fingertips was soft, with a touch of jade-like coldness, Zhang Lan stared at her blankly, her amber-like eyes were a little dazed.

"Thank you, I am very happy."

Xia Zhitao said softly, she bent her eyebrows, and a smile spread out of the corner of her eyes: "Speaking of which, I should have a vote to vote for, right, can you take me there?"

.

The so-called small hermit hides in the wild, and the big hermit hides in the city. I don't know the pavilion has countless strongholds, and the three caves of cunning rabbits are as intricate as a spider's web. If the other party is unwilling, it is almost impossible to find the person in power behind it.

And the one that collects votes is just one of the many bright spots.There are quite a lot of people in the attic, and most of them come to vote. If they want to buy or sell information, they have to go to the independent secret room to talk to the masked "informant".

Xia Zhitao received a small wooden sign dedicated to voting. According to the manager in the pavilion, this wooden sign is made of wood whose name is unclear. It can record people's breath. If there are repeated votes, it will be detected. high end.

"Why are you just staring at me here?" Xia Zhitao turned the brush in her hand, turned her head to glance at a little guy who was poking around, "Have you voted yet?"

"I voted, I voted early." Zhang Lan squatted beside her, and said triumphantly, "I was the first one to vote when I didn't know when the pavilion opened in the early morning!"

Xia Zhitao laughed heartily, stretched out her hand to pinch Zhang Lan's cheek, and pushed her away: "Go, don't read the name I filled in, go outside and play."

Zhang Lan pouted, reluctantly glanced at the wooden sign in Xia Zhitao's hand, and ran away obediently.

Xia Zhitao sat down at the stone table, dazzled with the pen, and wrote the word "insolent" stroke by stroke on the small wooden sign, gently rubbing the edge of the wooden sign with five fingers, and unconsciously bent down.

She stood up, put the wooden sign into the wooden box, and there was a soft "clang", and the small wooden sign with the words written on it went down, lying quietly in the darkness together with thousands of other different names.

Xia Zhitao clapped her hands lightly, and was about to leave in style, but just as she turned her head, she caught a glimpse of a dazed and familiar figure in the crowd.

She frowned, she didn't expect the other party to appear here, she stepped forward and shouted: "Master Lingtong?"

The soul boy was holding two wooden signs with a sad face, and was suddenly startled by Xia Zhitao, who suddenly turned his head and said in surprise, "Hey! Aren't you that so-and-so?"

Xia Zhitao smiled, and said, "My surname is Xia, so I can call you whatever you want. Master Lingtong came from a long distance, but you have something important to do?"

The soul boy blinked, remembering that Master Xuanxu hit him on the head with an ancient staff before, and said that this person can be trusted, and happily put two wooden cards in her hand: "It's very kind of you to come, do me a favor!"

Xia Zhitao took the wooden sign, and the soul boy brought over the pen and ink courteously, and ordered: "I can't write, please help me write both of them as arrogant, hurry up!"

He sniffled and muttered: "My master can't move on the ninth floor of the soul bone, so he can only kick me out to vote, but he didn't teach me how to write. I've been struggling for a long time."

Xia Zhitao helped him write it carefully, and the soul boy took it to match the portrait, and seeing the same look, he grinned and said, "Thank you!"

The soul boy threw down the wooden sign, and seeing Xia Zhitao was still there, he suddenly remembered something, dragged her out of Zhizhi Pavilion, and hid in a dark and deserted alley.

He looked around cautiously, making sure no one was around, and then asked in a low voice, "By the way, have you ever seen Zhang Kuang?"

I must have seen it before, the leader ran around every day without doing business, and Zhang Lan came out again after Zhang Kuang disappeared. Not long ago, he sneaked next to me, trying to peek at what was written on the wooden sign.

Xia Zhitao smiled and said, "I met you in Youzhou nearly ten days ago, and then I went back to Qiling."

The soul boy rubbed his head in distress, and said: "Master asked me to bring her a message, but I was stopped by the ban when I went to Qiling, and I couldn't find it anywhere."

...with words?

Xia Zhitao thought for a moment, then said softly: "If you trust me, maybe I can help spread the word."

The soul boy probably has a bad head, and he believed it when he heard her say that. Fortunately, the other party was Xia Zhitao. If it was someone else with malicious intentions, the consequences would be disastrous.

"If you meet Zhang Kuang, tell her to be careful of Yashan. No matter what happens, no matter how serious the situation is, you must never show up again."

The soul boy said seriously: "The thousand-year-old formation in Baihetang protects not only the inheritance of illusions and the weaving of dreams, but also one more thing."

With a dignified expression, he explained to Xia Zhitao in detail: "The human world and the devil world have been separated by a barrier of heaven and earth since ancient times, and the Liuyao seal is its pillar."

"But now that the third part of the white crane has been destroyed, the old man's spirit bone is guarding the second part, and no one knows about the rest. Although Zhengdao has kept this matter a secret, it will never let it go."

In the original novel, the heroine Ling Xishi is the main perspective, and many things are hidden in the background. Xia Zhitao's heart suddenly turned cold when she heard Lingtong's words, and thought of the words Qin Shu said before he died:

"I didn't expect [he] to be so ruthless."

Whether it is "he" or "she", what is the purpose of the person behind the manipulation of the Baihetang fire, and what purpose do they want to achieve?

.

I don't know this year's beauty ranking, Zhang Kuang narrowly beat Hong Jue by hundreds of votes and won the top spot again, but Zhang Lan was so angry that he threatened to smash this black-hearted organization.

Xia Zhitao, as one of the "culprits" who voted for Zhang Kuang, was leisurely and at ease, dragging Zhang Lan back and preventing her demolition.

Regarding who is the most beautiful woman in the world, there have been endless debates in the past few years, but there has been no decision or definite answer.

Those who met Zihuan said she deserved her reputation, those who met Hongjue said she deserved it, and those who met Madness said she was better.

I have seen all three of them and hesitated, saying that all of them are very good-looking. Sorry, I have a choice phobia and really can't choose.

After all, this is a ranking of beauties, not a ranking of strength. There is an exact standard that can be used to measure it, and a large part of it depends on individual subjectivity.

It's not that you think the girl is not good-looking, other girls are really not good-looking, it is very likely that you think this girl is at the bottom, and others think that this girl should take the first place.

In short, everyone has their own opinions, and the right depends on personal aesthetics.

The matter ended with noisiness, and Zhang Lan was also pulled to give up the demolition, but the words brought by the soul boy weighed heavily on her heart like a rock, making Xia Zhitao a little uneasy.

Therefore, when Bixu Peak recruited disciples to leave the mountain, she looked at the very familiar file introduction and rewards, and signed up almost instantly.

Although Bixu is very famous, this mission is the simplest escort mission, and the reward is only a pitiful Spiritual Melting Pill, so the disciples are not very interested.

But in the original text, the heroine Ling Xishi also participated in this mission, and on the way to escort the remnants of Xisheng back to Yashan, she accidentally obtained something:

The treasure of heaven and earth that can protect the veins of a dying person and prevent his soul from flying away - "Wugou Rui".

This is Xia Zhitao's real purpose.

As the departure time was approaching, Xia Zhitao collected her things carefully, and gathered at the main hall of Jingtang Peak on the appointed day.Among the sparse disciples, she saw a familiar red figure at a glance.

Everyone was traveling lightly, but that man was fine, he swaggered with a big bag of snacks, and there was a little girl behind him as a coolie.

Xia Zhitao didn't expect to meet an acquaintance, so she was slightly delighted, and walked up to greet the two of them: "Senior Sister Jin, Wangyan, have you signed up too?"

Jin Li was eating snacks leisurely, when he saw Xia Zhitao's figure from a distance, his eyes lit up, he winked at Wang Yan who had been reduced to a coolie, and ran over excitedly.

The quick movements, the hot eyes, as if seeing a human figure walk away, Xia Zhitao began to wonder why he called them.

Jin Li's voice was full of emotion: "Junior Sister Xia, I was told by Master that I played too crazy recently, and I was forced to accept the task. I didn't expect to meet you! This is all fate!"

Xia Zhitao smiled and said, "It's rare to meet two people I know, I count on your care."

Jin Li was overjoyed, her face was full of big words "Junior Sister, you are the most reliable, bring salted fish". Even the little red fish beside her was jumping around lively, which made Xia Zhitao quite a headache.

Looking at the smoke probe from the side, he saw that there was nothing behind Xia Zhitao, and he came by himself, so he was a little curious: "Senior sister, where is your inseparable little tail?"

——What Xiaowei said was naturally Zhang Lan.

Xia Zhitao shrugged and regretted, "I haven't seen her these days, so I don't know where she went."

Originally, I wanted to invite my junior sister... oh no, I brought a full-level boss over to play, but Zhang Lan, who used to be clingy to her, has been disappearing lately, and she couldn't find anyone for a long time, so Xia Zhitao had to come alone.

For some reason, the heroine did not appear, and Feng Luoya, who was supposed to lead the team, was replaced by the old-fashioned leader of Jingtang Peak, Gao Ze.

Xia Zhitao was very sad, feeling that she might not have chosen the wrong task, but things had come to this point, even if she couldn't get Wugou Rui, she could still get a melting potion after completing the task, which was better than nothing.

The disciples who came this time were uneven, from all peaks, Gao Ze checked everyone's cultivation level, and his voice was as old as an ancient bell: "Let's go."

The long sword was unsheathed, and more than a dozen disciples followed him, sailing into the boundless blue sky, and their figures disappeared in the surging sea of ​​clouds.

.

The sun and the moon are full and flat, and the days and nights are listed.

Guided by Xingdou Xuanji, the crowd crossed the grass and empty valleys and walked through the barren desert. After a few days of driving, they came to the Western Region thousands of miles away from the cliff mountains.

The sun scorched the sand, and the hot dry wind poured into the sleeves. They stopped in the deserted Yellowstone Valley.

Gao Ze landed steadily on a protruding rock, looked down at the disciples from a high position, and said in a low voice: "This matter is very easy, I think you don't need to waste my words."

"Immediately disassemble into five teams, one team of three people, immediately go to the five main cities of the Western Regions, and gather here in three days, if you don't bring back the five Xisheng fragments in time—"

He snorted coldly and scolded: "Get out of the cliff!!"

All the disciples said yes in unison, and Gao Ze waved his large sleeves, stood up with his long sword, and disappeared into the yellow sand in an instant.

Compared with Peak Master Zheng Luo Yi's careful concern before, and Peak Master Gao Ze's act of throwing his disciples away and leaving, the contrast is very stark.

The disciples formed a team noisily, and began to draw lots to select the five main cities of the Western Regions.Naturally, Xia Zhitao and the two acquaintances unanimously pushed Jinli to draw lots, and calmly waited for the result.

"I heard that the main cities of the Western Regions all have their own characteristics," Wang Yan said excitedly, shaking his legs, "I don't know which one Senior Sister Jinli will get!"

Xia Zhitao didn't know much about the Western Regions, and it was his first time here. The two were chatting leisurely, and the voices of other disciples came from the side: "Any city is good, don't get Yunji."

Sighing, he clasped his hands in fear, and sighed: "That place is really terrifying, a city full of lunatics, the last time I went there gave me a three-day nightmare, I hope someone will take it away as soon as possible—"

As soon as the words fell, Jin Li "Kang Dang" shook the lottery, picked it up and looked at it, and said happily: "Yunji City!"

The surrounding disciples all heaved a sigh of relief, Wang Yan's face turned pale, and he said with a mournful face: "Senior Sister Jin! Why did you just smoke this!"

Jin Li said: "Hey, isn't it good?"

The other teams cast sympathetic glances, and the brother who spoke just now patted Xia Zhitao on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "I have wronged you all, you must come back alive."

Xia Zhitao: "..."

After receiving the lottery, the disciples left in different directions. Jin Li shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, and waved his hand: "If you come here, you will be safe. Let's go and see what is going on in Yunji City."

The three of them took out the map and searched according to the direction. After holding their swords in the desert for about half an hour, they vaguely glimpsed the outline of the city wall in the yellow sand.

Taking a closer look, Xia Zhitao understood why the senior brothers and sisters had just shy away from talking about Yunji City.

I saw a huge banner hanging on the city wall, with the words "Warmly celebrate the third beauty ranking of No. 70 defending the crown" eloquently, and just below the banner at the entrance to the city, there was a gold-plated notice:

【Entry price】

Crazy: Zero Gold

Trade Caravan: Ten Golds and One Car

Urban residents of the Central Plains: one tael of silver per person

Citizens of the Western Regions: One bronze monk and one person

……

Brother Yashan: Ten thousand gold per person

Xia Zhitao was startled: This cloud city of feelings is the city of super fans of the leader, isn't it? ?
