Did the little scumbag lose his horse today?

A gust of cold wind poured into the opened door curtain, blowing the charcoal basin inside the house so that sparks flew everywhere.

"New here, shut the door shut—"

The man sitting cross-legged on the table had a beard that almost covered his entire face, and he waved his hands at the person who just entered behind him without looking back.

The cold wind belonging to the outside world came in together with the young man who had just entered the door.

The delicate and smooth face like white porcelain is completely different from the darkness in the winery. Those big black jewel-like eyes are full of aura, and the tails of the eyes are slightly raised, like a cat.

Everyone in the wine shop was drinking and chatting, and did not pay attention to the new guest.

"As for the water master in Beihai, he stared at the pearl of the night and his own eyeballs. He never let up for a moment. It took me nine months to succeed with him this time, but it suffocated me! It's better in the demon world. , the sea area of ​​the Tian Clan is not a place where we can stay..."

The fat palm of the bearded man picked up the warm shochu on the charcoal basin as if he was not afraid of the heat, and poured himself a full glass.

The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks sitting across from him smiled a bit wickedly: "Brother, this is all done? I heard that the bounty is a total of [-] monthly coins, which is enough for you to live happily for hundreds of years!"

"That's not right! Don't even look at who I am?" The brawny drank the wine in his glass and smacked his lips. "This is an earth mission. I'm not bragging. The number of people who can complete this mission is at most this number in the demon world!"

After finishing speaking, he stretched out one hand and circled two fingers inward: "At most three! You can say whether I'm good or not!"

The skinny monkey-like man rolled his eyes and said, "If you're really amazing, go and accept the current Tianzi mission. The bounty is two hundred times higher than yours!"

"Don't dare." The brawny man frankly said, "As long as I have enough money to spend, I don't want to seek death."

Having said that, the newly arrived boy also walked slowly to the center of the lobby.

Wearing a silver crown with hair on the head, and a moist jade pendant on the waist, the bright red tassels are dangling with the steps of the master, which is particularly eye-catching.

The bearded man's eyes shifted from the young man's jade-like face to the colorless fur cloak on his body, and he frowned when he saw the complex patterns on the young man's white boots, which were thinly outlined with gold thread.

"Young Master, you must have lost your way. How did you find Tianhui Fang..."

It was snowing outside the house, the boy tightened his fluffy collar, shook off the half-melted snow on his cloak, and walked towards the hall.

The man drinking wine around the stove looked at the young man who was out of place with his surroundings with slightly wary eyes, hesitant to speak.

"Excuse me, take over a task." The young man smiled, his brows and eyes were curved, and he was very kind and good-looking.

He stood and waited for a while, and seeing that the man didn't move, he took out a pure white jade plaque from his sleeve and put it in front of the counter: "Number [-]."

The pupils of the man drinking wine shrank, he quickly picked up the jade token on the table and looked it over carefully, then a pale golden light overflowed from his fingertips and enveloped it, after a while, the pale golden light converged into a thread, condensing in the air Into a few lines of fine print.

The last line clearly reads: Complete the task of Tianzi No. 700, and the reward is [-] million monthly coins.

"T-I didn't expect to see you!" The man's voice trembled, "Young Master Qing, you haven't appeared in a thousand years, and the owner of the shop asked me if I had any news about you!"

As soon as the word Qing Gongzi came out, almost everyone sitting in the winery looked up, their eyes were strange and fanatical.

The bearded man who was drinking outside had his eyes wide open, and before he could wipe off the wine stains at the corner of his mouth, he said in disbelief, "Young Master Qing? He is the Young Master Qing who got Jun Lingyu?"

"What?" The skinny man was also taken aback, "Young Master Qing is out of customs? He hasn't appeared in a thousand years... I think the mission of Tianzi No. The injury was successful! I didn't expect the rumored Mr. Qing to be so weak and good-looking... It seems that the demon power is not strong."

Hu Chanan retorted in a low voice: "What do you know! The big monster is reserved, how can I wait for the little monster to see through their depth?"

Yuan Run, who was revered as Young Master Qing and was forced to accept countless scrutiny in the lobby, was a little uncomfortable, lowered his head and touched his nose.

"Young Master Qing, please."

The man respectfully presented Yuan Run's identity jade badge with both hands, and with a wave of his hand, a quaint gate appeared out of thin air on the wall full of wine.

Yuan Run lifted his foot and stepped into the door. The next moment, the door behind him slowly dissipated into a phantom, leaving only a long corridor.

The wooden railings are finely carved with patterns, like flames, or like a bird soaring from the fire.There is an endless sea of ​​flowers around the promenade, and the shades of red and green complement each other, which makes the sore eyes slightly relieved after watching the snowy scenery all the way.

The hot charcoal smell, the smell of wine, and the smell mixed with those demons in the brewery just now were completely replaced by the fragrant fragrance of flowers blowing towards them, and only the footsteps of the two could be heard from far and near.

Passing through the corridor, the two stopped in front of a suspended stone slab.

There were many small signs hung on the stone slabs from low to high. Yuan Run glanced at them casually, but was too lazy to sift through them, so he asked the man, "Is there any mission near Qin Li?"

The man replied without thinking, "No."

"Where is it in Yuekong City?"

"Yuekong City..." He frowned indistinctly, thinking to himself that all the places he chose were the most taboo places at present, and he said unnaturally, "There is only one task, but the degree of difficulty is too high. For a hundred years, no one dares to accept it."

Yuan Run became interested and asked, "What is the mission?"

"Tianzi No. [-], won Qing Luoshi."

Qing Luoshi.

I don’t know why these three words sound familiar, but Yuanrun’s soul was hurt thousands of years ago, and he has forgotten many things. He couldn’t remember what Qing Luoshi was for a while, so he asked: “Who is this mission issued by? ? Why is it a heavenly mission to win a stone? Who owns this stone?"

Tianhuifang will not betray any behind-the-scenes boss who released the task, but he can answer other questions.

"The reason why capturing Qing Luo Stone is a Tianzi mission is because Qing Luoshi is in the hands of the Yaojun. The difficulty has surpassed all previous Tianzi missions, and the reward for completing it is 300 million monthly coins."

Twenty-three million is more than three times the bounty of the Tianzi No. 300 mission completed by Yuan Run, an astronomical figure.

As a kind of jade-polished currency in circulation in the demon world, moon coins have amazing purchasing power. One moon coin can order a table of good wine and good food. Ordinary demon alchemy artifacts are only a few tens of moon coins, and no matter how expensive it is, it can be hundreds or two thousand 300 million monthly coins are enough for a big monster to spend tens of thousands of years freely.

However, the target person is the demon king, the master of the demon world.

Yuan Run narrowed his eyes.

In his impression, the lord of the demon world is a big tiger whose prototype can cover the sky and the sun, stepping on the flesh and blood of countless big monsters step by step to the throne of the demon king.Although he has never entered Yuekong City before, nor has he seen Yaojun, but he can imagine how powerful Yaojun is.

Seeing Young Master Qing was silent, the man tapped his slender fingers on the extremely soft cloak, then rolled his pale eyes and said with a smile: "Excuse me, help me get the Tianzi No. [-] cloak." brand."

This is the mission to take over!

With a wave of the man's hand, the jade tablet standing on the top of the suspended stone slab suddenly appeared in his hand, with four large characters drawn on the iron hook in silver hooks: Tianzi No. [-].

The scene was much more grand than it was when he took over the task thousands of years ago.

Yuan Run took the jade tablet and flipped it over a few times, then put it into his sleeve.

The man standing beside him waited with a respectful smile on his face and said, "Sure enough, it is Mr. Qing! Only you can take over this kind of task, and you will definitely not be at ease if it is given to someone else!"

Yuan Run reluctantly twitched the corners of his mouth, unwilling to listen to these overly flattering words, and walked out along the long corridor where he came.

When he returned to the wine-smelling workshop, before taking two steps, a hand with strong bones stretched out from the side, gently tugged on his cloak, and then quickly retracted the hand.

Looking back, a young man with a kind face waved to him, made a gesture of 'please sit down', and said with a shy smile, "I can help you! Shall we cooperate?"

a stranger.

A somewhat abrupt person.

Yuan Run didn't want to talk to him at first, but this man had a kind face, a gentle pronunciation, and a very familiar speech, as if he had known Yuan Run for a long time.

Seeing Yuan Run not moving, the young man stared straight at him with a pair of light brown eyes. Yuan Run saw the sincerity written in his eyes, and sat down unexpectedly.

"Cooperation?" He frowned, "What cooperation?"

"I know that you accepted the mission of Tianzi No. [-], and I also know that Mr. Qing hasn't returned to the demon world for nearly a thousand years——

"It's not that I deliberately inquired about your news. It's just that I ran diligently in Tianhuifang, so I learned a little more. If it was the old Yuekong City, it would be easy to enter with Young Master Qing's ability, but since 500 years After the former demon world changed hands and the new demon king entered Yuekong City, everything will be different!"

When the man said this, he poured a glass of warm wine for Yuan Run, and said with a smile, "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Lin Tingsheng, a little demon who lives on bounties."

Isn't that big tiger the demon king?

Yuan Run leaned back slowly, folded his arms around his chest, and said in a defensive voice, "What changes can be made in Yuekong City? What difference can the old demon king and the new demon king have?"

"The new demon king is cruel and bloodthirsty. When he took the position, he tore the previous demon king to pieces—I mean really tore them into pieces. Pieces of flesh and blood sprinkled over Yuekong City like snowflakes. That night, even the moon was blood-colored. , Everyone in Yuekong City is in danger.

"I don't know what the mentality of the new demon king is. Yuekong City was originally a barren land, but once he took office, it developed like a human city.

"Afterwards, due to the thunderous tactics of the new demon king, all the big demons surrendered to him, and honestly became the free thugs of the new demon king in Yuekong City. Every monster in the city is the demon king's eyeliner. How do you do that? Can you get in with your current identity? Not to mention getting close to the Qing Luo Stone that the Demon King stole from him."

So many things have happened in the past 500 years?

Yuan Run's index finger gently touched his lips, and he remained silent.

Lin Tingsheng saw that Yuan Run was thinking a little bit, and hit the rails while it was hot: "I have a way to let you enter Yuekong City openly, and you can also get close to the Demon King. Of course, I'm not helping you in vain. After it's done, The points are divided equally between us, and I am only 300 short of being able to upgrade the Tianzi card. As for the monthly coin... you can give me a little hard work fee, 300%, and the reward for the Tianzi No. [-] task is [-] million monthly coins , How about giving me [-] million hard work expenses?"

These words are impeccable.Since he wanted something from him, and he didn't help for free, he left most of it to Yuan Run, and he only took [-]% of the hard work fee, which made Yuan Run a little moved.

"I'll think about it." He picked up the glass of cold wine in front of him, and took a sip, "Do you often stay in Tianhuifang? If I can see you again when I come back here, I agree to cooperate with you."

After finishing speaking, he gathered up his cloak and rolled up the curtain and left.

Lin Tingsheng watched the wind and snow passing by outside the curtain, without any surprise on his face, and whispered with a smile: "As expected... I still have to try it myself."

Several flakes of snow were blown up by the wind and hit Yuan Run's warm cheeks.

Yuan Run reached out and touched his face, and the cool snow melted into water.

"I really want to have a hot roast chicken." He licked his lips, and then weighed his clinking pocket, only a dozen or so moon coins were left in it.

Who would have thought that Young Master Qing, who is well-known in Tianhui Square, is currently impoverished, except for this outfit, the remaining money can barely support him for a few more days.

Sighing lightly, Yuan Run tightened his collar and walked towards Yuekong City stepping on the creaking snow.

Ten monthly coins are needed to enter the city, Yuan Run reluctantly gave the money, and stepped into the bustling city, but felt that the wind and snow were getting colder.

Along the way, there are many little demons enthusiastically promoting the items they sell. Looking at the past, there are all kinds of demon bones, inner alchemy, and fur. It got into the stomach of the hungry little demon.

Gudong.

He swallowed.

Yuan Run resisted to let himself look more, and walked down the long street.The demon king entered Wuyin Temple, the center of Yuekong City. It is not too far away from this bustling night market, but it is possible to explore it from here.

The fox clan's talent is sharper than other clans. Since he entered the city, he has walked a long street, passing by two monsters whose cultivation base is higher than his, or pretending to be a peddler, or sitting in a tavern to eat and drink, Look outside from time to time.

He hid among the little demons and went back and forth several times, stepped on several long streets around Wuyin Temple, and roughly figured out how many masters were hiding in the most strictly guarded places in Yuekong City.

Lin Tingsheng's words about free thugs are not nonsense. There are at least [-] big demons who can fight Yuanrun near Wu Yinque, and there are even more inferior monsters. It is impossible to force it. It seems that he I really have to go back and look for Lin Tingsheng, and ask him if there is any way for him to enter Wuyin Temple openly.

The night gradually darkened.

Lights were lit up on the long street near and far. Looking up, Yuan Run was surprised to find that those lights were all glazed lanterns. The workmanship was exquisite and crystal clear. They were all dumbfounded.

"How could such a barren land become like this..." So vibrant, so prosperous and lively.

Just like that worldly environment, it makes people love it.

"My lord, let's guess a lantern riddle!" The banshee with two small horns smiled and held up a lantern, and looked at Yuanrun with fiery joy in her eyes, "If you guess right, you want to get rid of it, my lord." Anything is fine~"

The words are full of invitations with profound meanings.

Lantern riddles are tricky, and ordinary little demons don't like them, but if they guess the lantern riddles correctly, they have a chance to win the favor of beauties. Many little demons who can't find a female companion stand in front of the lantern with a sad face.

"Little pretty girl, you're being unkind..." A little demon with horns on his head complained mournfully, "I come here every day, and I haven't seen you being warm to me once... "

The banshee named Xiaoman skillfully rolled her eyes, and snorted softly: "I am greedy for money and lustful, and I just like a pretty appearance, what can you do to me?"

Yuan Run didn't care about the two little demons who were arguing. I don't know what magical power the word "lantern riddle" has. At this moment, Yuan Run was pulled into a blurred picture by a group of inaccurate memories.

It was a very deep night, and the sky was full of stars, twinkling and twinkling.

One after another, the lanterns were lit up, lighting up the dark night.

The warm firelight shone on both sides of the street, making restaurants, money houses, and various dim sum and rouge shops more lively.The wide streets are full of people, old or young, men and women, children laughing, chasing and chasing, ears full of noise, eyes full of lively crowds.

In that picture, he was chasing a peddler carrying a crescent pole. Yuan Run couldn't remember whether the peddler was selling sesame candied balls or candied haws, but he remembered a low laugh falling on his ear.

Very close, but also very far.

He remembered the man saying—

"My lord?" Xiao Man stretched out his hand and shook Yuan Run in front of him, "Today is Lan Festival, you really don't want to guess a lantern riddle, lord?"

Yuan Run was taken aback.

The picture in front of him changed from the noisy human world to the snowy demon world. The snowflakes and the horns on the little demon's forehead all reminded him that this was not the place in the picture.

Gollum-

Hunger is clamoring.

Yuan Run took out his warm hands from the cloak and rubbed his almost frozen face, and reached out to take the chubby lantern.

"Lan Festival?" He asked Xiaoman for a pen, "It's my first time today."

Xiaoman's eyes widened: "Young Master, have you never been to Yuekong City before? The Lan Festival has been held for 500 years, and it's so delicious and fun!"

500 years.

Just after the new Yaojun took office.

He likes the fact that there are so many liveliness in the world in the demon world.

"A person like Yaojun...how could he think of holding such a festival." He thought about it, and then wrote on the lantern.

Xiaoman held his face and smiled: "I heard that Yaojun used to have a very doting person, and he especially liked to go to the human world to watch the excitement."

"Oh?" Yuan Run didn't know that the bloodthirsty king had such a past, and sighed, "I didn't expect the demon king to be quite romantic."

Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "My lord, you are wrong, Yaojun's lover betrayed him, Lan Festival is a festival to celebrate that person's death without a whole body!"

"..." The brush in Yuan Run's hand stopped, and a large drop of ink dripped down.

He should have guessed that a demon king who could tear the previous demon king piece by piece would not be able to do such a romantic thing.

Yuan Run finished writing the lantern riddle, and handed it to Xiaoman with a smile: "Miss Xiaoman, I guessed it right, can you treat me to a meal?"

Xiaoman thought to himself that this young man would seduce a woman's heart, and invited her to dinner and drink so late, didn't he just want to have some stories with her?As a result, he lowered his head and saw four large characters written crookedly on the lantern: Big Drumstick.

"Wrong!" Xiaoman burst out laughing, and then read the lantern riddle again, "You don't need to cut off the red crown on your head, and you will walk into the future all in white; You guessed wrong, it seems that I don't need to invite you for this meal~ But... if you invite me, Xiaoman is very willing to eat and drink with you."

Yuan Run said goodbye: "I'm just familiar with the answer to the mystery, can't I be right?"

The big chicken leg and the rooster are originally on the same thing, so what they do is so clearly distinguished.

He was already starving, and wasting a day of work to set foot in Yuekong City made him feel unbearably hungry. He touched his wallet, which had already bottomed out, and was really reluctant to spend the last moon coins, and missed the little man girl. With warm eyes full of hospitality, he hurried towards the direction he came from.

If he walked quickly, there would still be time for Lin Tingsheng to treat him to a roast chicken.

The girl Xiaoman was still holding the lantern and stared at the tall and straight figure in the wind and snow, and sighed with some disappointment: "I really don't understand the style..."

This year's Lan Festival just ushered in a heavy snow, which decorated the loft Feiyu in elegant white.It would be great if we could walk side by side with that good-looking young man in this vast snow scene, enjoy the snow and talk.

When Xiaoman had seen enough and turned around, a figure suddenly appeared beside him.

He was extremely tall, and a tall lantern that Xiaoman tried his best to hang up just blocked the man's face.She moved her position, only to see half of his silver mask covering his face, and the knife-cut profile flickered under the firelight.

His eyes stopped on the crooked four unfinished characters, and his voice was a little hoarse: "The one who guessed this lantern riddle is a boy who looks seventeen or eighteen years old. He is fair and good-looking."

"Ah?" Xiaoman raised his head, only to feel that the person in front of him was too tall, so he couldn't help taking half a step back, "Yes, yes...what's wrong?"

"Where did he go?"

Xiaoman subconsciously pointed to the direction where Cai Yuanrun left, but that handsome young man had long since disappeared into the vast sea of ​​lights.

"He, he's gone..." Xiaoman was a little nervous, "I don't know where he went..."

There was no expression on the face covered by the mask, but waves were already stirring in those ink-like eyes.

His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and then he stretched out his hand tremblingly and hesitantly, touching the cheap lantern.

"How do you sell this lamp?" he asked.

The author has something to say: Later Yuan Run: Huh?I heard that Lan Festival is to celebrate my death?

Broken mirror reunion cookies, and rabbits have the same world view, reunion must be a misunderstanding before hhh don't worry too much -3-

Write this next book.

"Being raised by villains after wearing a book"

Ginger Tang was starving to death when he woke up.

He heard the sound of grass and trees being trampled down not far away, and rolled out with all his strength, blocking the way of a person.

Black clothes, holding a sword, covered in blood.

There seemed to be thousands of sword lights hidden in his eyes, but Jiang Tang didn't see it, and his front paws hugged the man's legs tightly.

"Let go." He said coldly, and started to leave.

The little milk tooth softly bit the hem of his clothes, her eyes were watery: "Woo."

"..."

He lowered his head and looked at the white and soft balls at his feet. The long-lost warmth came through his boots, and his bloody hands gradually tightened.

Finally, he bent down and scooped it up.

·

It was only later that Jiang Tang found out that he was wearing a book, and the one who stopped him turned out to be Fu Sheng, the big villain who was betrayed by the audience in his early years and was on all sides.

And he is very likely to be the strongest tonic in this article, a precious beast coveted by the entire cultivation world.

How dare Jiang Tang, who cherishes his life, dare to run around, cover the little vest of his precious beast, just treat himself as a little pet, hug his thigh, gnaw on his clothes, and even sleep in Fu Sheng's arms at night, if he is matured like this , Fu Sheng, who is cultivated to the sky and talented, should not let him down QAQ

Until one day, Jiang Tang felt sore and hot all over, and rolled into Fu Sheng's arms non-stop.

He felt a pair of big hands constantly comforting his mania and anxiety, but he was too uncomfortable, crying and howling, and finally passed out.

When he woke up, he met Fu Sheng's longing, deep eyes, and weakly raised a bare/naked arm——

Wait, hand?

Where are his claws? !
