I didn't become a human today

Liu Sheng was out of breath, and continued: "Since I stole this jade cicada from Wanning Pavilion without authorization, my body has changed. Every once in a while, I will shed my skin..."

Hearing what Liu Sheng said, Ji Ran's eyes suddenly widened, he jumped back and forth a few steps, pointed at the pile of fragile things with his claws, "You mean... you shed all these shells skin?"

No wonder, the shape of this pile of things is so suspicious. After listening to what Liu Sheng said, take a closer look, isn't it? There are noses and eyes, and the fingers of the freshly molted shell are all distinct, but they were crushed later. .In addition, Ji Ran has never seen the strange thing that people can shed their skin, so he never thought about it.

Looking at his skinny appearance, Liu Sheng couldn't help sighing, "It's really retribution. I was greedy and stole something that originally belonged to Shiqi. Since I got this jade cicada, it has shed it no less than a dozen times so far. Every time I shed my skin, my body will become thinner than before, as if all the nutrients in my body have been exhausted."

He looked at Liang Xingye, "This curse will spread, and people who have been cured by Yuchan will become like me, shedding their skin every once in a while, so this brother, has now been cured by Yuchan. The curse of the cicada is entangled, and the only way to break the curse is to send Yuchan back to Wanning Pavilion, Yuchan belongs to Seventeen, and Seventeen should know this jade cicada best."

After hearing what he said, Ji Ran got a layer of bird skin bumps.

They have already been dragged into the water, and it is too late to swim back.

After turning into a bird, my temper became a little more anxious, "Then hurry up and leave, what are you waiting for?"

Speaking of which, their final destination was Star Star Island, and the trip to Star Island happened to pass through Shiyuan. Although it would take a while, it was still on the way.

Ji Ran and Liang Xingye didn't have any luggage, and they were relaxed. Now that they needed to take such a sick person with them when they were on the road, their footsteps suddenly slowed down.

Hoshino carried Liu Sheng on his back all the way. Although he is not heavy now, his body is really bad. Various problems appeared one after another along the way. Sometimes he coughed as if he could cough out his lungs, and then he fell into a coma again. I couldn't wake up no matter how I shouted.

After finally getting out of the maple forest and reaching the real border between Ishihara and Jibei, I was blocked by a large pile of gray stones.

There are no snow-capped mountains and glaciers in the extreme north, and there are rime and ice hanging here.Looking around, there are huge chunks of jagged boulders everywhere. They are rooted in the shallow soil in various postures, and they are extremely dark in color under the sun.

This is Ishihara.

Cold and hard, passers-by walk through the cracks between the boulders, their eyes full of indifference.

Ji Ran has been to Shiyuan, and he knows that there is a commercial road at the junction of Shiyuan and the extreme north. It is in the gap between the huge rocks like a mountain peak. Relying on his own flying high and seeing far, he quickly found the direction for them.

There are many people coming and going on the business road. Liang Xingye tried to hire a carriage. Liu Sheng's condition is so bad that he can't even speak. They must find a doctor for him first, even if it means hanging his life That's fine, otherwise it would be difficult for him to stick to Wanning Pavilion.

He put Liu Sheng down on his back and leaned against the side of the business road. Ji Ran stood next to Liu Sheng to ensure his safety, while watching Hoshino who was not far away failed repeatedly, even though he offered a high price However, the merchants were still unmoved, and refused to give up a carriage, and they didn't even have a good attitude.

"Go away, don't get in the way."

"It doesn't matter how much you pay."

"You should hurry up and leave with that sick man on your back. I'm not alarmist. On the commercial road, it's very difficult for you to hire a carriage."

After a few times, even Liang Xingye came back shaking his head in disappointment, Ji Ran jumped to his side impatiently, and whispered in his ear, "Didn't you say that money can turn ghosts around? The people here are really strange, some people here are dying of illness, they pretend not to see, no one is willing to lend a helping hand?"

Liang Xingye explained to him helplessly, "The carriages of these Shiyuan merchants are filled with stones. Once they give us a carriage, the stones in this cart must be shared among other carriages. Now, the speed of the carriage is slower than expected, and it will be difficult to catch up with the delivery time."

In a few words, he revealed the deep meaning behind those indifferent words, "It's not that they don't want to make money, but that they pay more attention to integrity than these."

Stretched out his hand and scratched Ji Ran's neck, like coaxing a child, "Look, one side of the water and soil supports the other side. We have been to the extreme north, where the people are tenacious and self-reliant, not afraid of the severe cold. If there is anything lacking in the house, they use ice to help themselves." To carve one, I never complain about how bad my living environment is, how cold the weather is, how many days it has snowed... close the door and sit by the stove, as long as I have a sip of hot soup, I am happy every day.”

He turned his attention to those Shiyuan people with indifferent expressions, "The people in the extreme north have their own way of life, and the same is true for the Shiyuan people. They transport stones to various places, and they will always arrive one step earlier than the expected delivery time. Never late. Many people like to do business with them, because they understand that Shiyuan people will always inherit the admonition of the older generation in their bones, keep their promises and keep their promises, and keep their promises without deception."

After listening to Liang Xingye's explanation, Ji Ran's impetuous heart suddenly calmed down, and suddenly felt that everyone in this place, who seemed fierce and evil, was very cute.

"Look at that scarred face, the scars on the face are so unique, like ingots."

As Ji Ran said, he looked back with worry, "It's just Liu Sheng's illness, it really can't be delayed."

Not far away, there was a tinkling of bells.

A donkey, with a red silk flower tied on its head, walked towards them with four brisk hooves.

Although the donkey is inconspicuous, anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that every accessory on the donkey is of great value.

There are silver bells hanging around the donkey's neck, carved and hollowed out, exquisite and unique; the brocade on the donkey's back is hard to find;

While chewing something in its mouth, the donkey pulled the extremely cheap cart behind him, and walked forward unhurriedly. During this period, under the watchful eyes of the people on both sides of the business road, he didn't even lift his eyelids.

On the cart, Buddha Ya was wearing a crescent-white cloud brocade. Under the halo of every inch of brocade and every inch of gold, he sucked a bowl of noodles... Dahai Bowl, bamboo chopsticks, spicy noodles, after drinking the last sip of soup, satisfied He sighed, raised his eyes, saw the people on the side of the road, and wiped the thin sweat on his forehead with his sleeve indiscriminately, "Oh, coincidence, you are here too!"
