Han Shan's Sword Unsheathed

Ji Xiao calmed down, and said gently: "Eat it, I'm not used to eating since I started bigu."

Meng Xueli thought to herself, when you were Xiao Tingyun, you still ate hot pot with me in Impoverished City, why are you not used to it now?

The conversation at the next table was intense, and she wanted to pull Meng Xueli to say something, Meng Xueli was afraid that the other person's words would be surprising, and Ji Xiao would be misunderstood again, so she hurriedly toasted: "If you don't talk about the Snow Mountain King, he is already dead!"

"That's right, the death of a demon is nothing, even the ermine fur has been stripped clean by the King of Lingshan, what else is there to say! Hey, I see that your servant looks good, do you want to sell it?"

The horseshoe crab turned its gaze, and its small soybean-like eyes stared straight at the three half-monsters, making Ruan Hui tremble in fright.

Meng Xueli threw the cup: "Not for sale!"

"Joke after drinking, you monster is really boring!"

The horseshoe crab got bored, and retracted with the wine glass.That foreign demon has a strong demonic aura, and the original shape cannot be seen, which shows that the demon power is profound.If there is any conflict, it will be brought up in front of King Baihe, and he will take the initiative to pick things up and ignore them, so let it go.

Meng Xueli had meat for the first time in three years, but he drank bitter wine and didn't know how to eat it. It was a pity that he had a table of river delicacies.

The three little half-demons intuited the change in the atmosphere between master and apprentice in Changchun Peak. Elder Meng buried himself in drinking and eating meat. His apprentice smiled and served him tenderly, but what was wrong?

Ruan Hui was chewing diced radish, while Bi You and Chu Hua changed from chattering about dried fish with relish to chattering about dried fish in a misty way.

After the half-demons finished eating, Meng Xueli immediately paid the bill and left.

The clam monster guy pulled out a huge blue crab from the pool in the backyard: "Your monster, your car is full. You go slowly—"

After that, the other mantis shrimp man bowed forward, showing a ten-foot-long original shape. The dorsal segment of the shrimp shell was like steps, and the long tentacles and mandibles rested on the crab cart.

The three half-monsters were a little startled and looked at each other.Meng Xueli showed no signs of timidity, stepped on the mantis shrimp and got into the car, beckoning her companions to follow.

After everyone sat down firmly, Meng Xueli waved his hand: "Reward."

Ji Xiao took out the Lingzhu, and helped the Taoist couple to support the big monster.

The aquarium buddy sent off behind the crab car: "Thank you, you monster!"

Just after nightfall, Baihe City was still bustling with noises of monsters.

This is a commercial street in the city, a street of restaurants and shops, there are no monsters rushing on the street, walking monsters, driving slowly forward, stop and go.In addition to the local turtle carts and crab carts, there are also big monsters from other places riding deer, tigers, lions, elephants and other beasts.

The buildings in Baihe City are mostly constructed of white stone transported by the river. This kind of stone is strong and beautiful, and it glows soft white under the moonlight.

The little demon living in the city hangs wind chimes made of pearls and shells under the eaves to worship King Baihe.The evening wind blows, and the wind chimes all over the street make crisp music.

Fish and dragon lanterns hung in front of the opened restaurants and shops, and warm yellow halos shrouded the streets.

The strong smell of wine and vegetables, the refreshing smell of the river breeze, and the bewitching aroma of the banshee floated in the air.

The little demon peddler by the road shouted loudly: "Look here, noble demon, the pearl necklace and pearl hairpin! Baihe's pearls are big and round!"

"Scallops and crab roe sauce, full of crab roe, rich sauce aroma. Special product of Baihe City, come and taste it, expensive monster!"

"Dried scallops, dried sandworms, and dried whitebait are must-eat delicacies in Baihe City!"

"Crispy fried small yellow croaker, fried and sold right away, it's hot, do you want some?"

There are row upon row of shops, and the dazzling array of excellent products is dizzying.Meng Xueli found it interesting, and asked the half-demon next to her, "What are we secretly selling?"

He remembered that Biyou said before that some of the goods would be sold in Baihe City.

Biyou lowered his voice mysteriously: "Water-proof clothes. The underwater city and Crystal Palace in Baihe River are bigger and more beautiful. They are simply another world. But the little demons on land are not strong enough to breathe and walk underwater. With human monks practicing If you don’t need the water-proof vest made by you, you can dive into the Baihe River, and you can move freely and broaden your horizons.”

Meng Xueli smiled and said, "It's quite useful."

Ruan Hui said: "Renren Qian said that if you want to do a good job in business, you have to be anxious about what the demon needs, and you need what the demon needs. Sell the water-proof clothing to the little demon, and sell the world's fine wine, exquisite porcelain, silk and satin to the demon. The noble demons in the city, the subordinates of King Baihe. As for whether they will sacrifice to King Baihe, it is none of our business."

Chu Hua: "Of course it will. It is said that King Baihe has collected a lot of human cosmetics and jewelry. She said that Yaozu craftsmen are clumsy, and jewelry is not as exquisite as human beings."

It's King Baihe again.

Meng Xueli quietly looked at the Taoist couple, and seeing Ji Xiao smiling lightly, she felt relieved.That's right, how can I use the heart of a sable to save the belly of Sword Master.

Meng Xueli stopped the crab car and said with a smile: "Jewelry is better than the craftsmanship of the human race, but the monster race also has the strengths of the monster race. Look at this street, what do you want to buy? Pick a few more, and I will pay the bill. You are welcome." !"

The three half-demons suppressed their excitement: "Really, really?"

Is there such a benefit in walking with Changchun Peak master and apprentice?Qian Renren, who is meticulous in budgeting, unexpectedly has such a heroic partner.

Meng Xueli waved her hand: "Go and pick!"

He turned to his Taoist companion and whispered his favor: "What do you want to buy?"

Ji Xiao shook his head.

Meng Xueli: "I know you don't like vulgar things, but we are here, so let's keep it as a souvenir. What do you think of the pearls? I'll buy you a string of beads, okay?"

Ji Xiao joked with him: "Now you are a domineering monster, and I am your pet, so naturally you will be what you say."

Meng Xueli was completely relieved, and walked into an elegant pearl shop.

The owner of the snail demon shop looked at them: "The expensive demon wears it by himself?"

Meng Xueli glanced at Jixiao: "A gift."

The shopkeeper held up a string of bracelets: "This is very suitable. The texture is smooth, and it will move when heated."

Ji Xiao's expression changed slightly.

The pearls are round and lovely, arranged in order from small to large, and the largest is the size of a walnut.

Meng Xueli paid the bill happily, thinking that I understand smoothness, but what's the use of a bracelet that moves.After three years, the popular aesthetics of the demon world has become strange.

He could never have predicted that it was this string of beads that would sow the seeds of disaster for the future.

……

In the Baihe territory, there is nothing that King Baihe doesn't know.

Every fish, every barnacle, is her eyes and ears.

As night fell, King Baihe entered the pool to take a bath, and then a demon general reported to her what he saw today.

Because the king is in the best mood only when he is taking a bath, and he usually doesn't lose his temper.

The Crystal Palace and the Yao Palace are full of brilliance, and shrimp soldiers and crab generals come and go for inspections.

There are countless treasures hidden in the palace, and King Baihe spent all his food and clothing extravagantly. Among them, the most magnificent one is the king's bathing pool.

The aquarium in the Crystal Palace regards serving the king by the pool as the highest honor.Only the most handsome male demon and the most beautiful female demon have this honor.

The carp manager pushed aside the heavy and soft floating shark gauze tents, and walked towards the place where the mist evaporated.

The bathing pool is as wide as a lake, and the hot mist rushes straight to the top of the high hall.The huge pearl is like a torch, which makes the water in the pool rippling.

More than [-] demon servants stood by the pool, throwing petals into the pool, like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.There are also more than ten demons who buy fine silk, balm, soft brushes of different sizes and so on.

King Baihe sat in the pool, his whole body glowing with a white luster.The carp manager admired in his heart, what a beautiful and noble king.

In the past, Meng Xueli discussed matters with King Baihe when she was bathing, because she would reveal her original body when she bathed, it was a...big scallop.

According to Meng Xueli, no matter how delicate and beautiful a scallop is, it is still a scallop.

At most, it is bigger and brighter than other scallops.

But the Baihe Shui Clan obviously don't think so. In their eyes, King Baihe is the most beautiful monster in the demon world.

The carp manager stood still, and before he could speak, he heard a soft and lazy female voice coming from the tightly closed shell: "What's going on in the city today."

Manager Li replied respectfully: "With your wise decision-making and foresight, the demons from other places dare not make mistakes, and the local demons live and work in peace and contentment, and all the demons enjoy themselves in harmony."

King Baihe asked: "What new monsters have come to the city?"

"According to the horseshoe crab general's report, there is a big monster from far away. He has pure monster aura all over his body, and he can't see the original shape. It can be seen that the monster power is profound. He brought his servants and pets to swagger through the market. He has a bold personality and a generous hand."

The voice in the shell was still lazy: "Oh, is that right. Is he here to apply for the draft?"

Manager Li: "This...subordinates don't know yet."

Since King Baihe publicly recruited demons who are good at climbing and flying, the entire Crystal Palace is anxious about what the King wants.However, things backfired, and the king has not yet found a satisfactory demon candidate.

The voice in the shell said to itself: "Time is running out."

After all, she seemed to suddenly become irritable: "Try harder, didn't you eat tonight?"

The crab general, who was rubbing the shells, trembled with fright, and the thin handkerchief in his hand fell into the pool.He hastily picked it up and pleaded guilty again and again.

"What's the use of me raising you?" King Baihe said angrily, "If you can't clean it well, I'll throw you into the steamer and make a bowl of crab powder soup!"
