Li Xiu has seen all kinds of cities, but this is the first time he has seen a city like this. The entire city is only slightly larger than a football field. The city's gate tower is not even as high as Li Xiu's calf, not to mention the buildings inside, most of which are much lower than the city gate tower. This city is small, but not too small. It is much larger and more exquisite than the castles built by children. Most of the buildings are made of brick and wood, and the carved beams and paintings are very beautiful.
To say it was big would be unreasonable. One of Li Xiu's feet was about the same size as a house inside. This made Li Xiu feel like he had arrived in Lilliput, or that he had become a giant.
There are thousands of houses in the city, but the strange thing is that there is not a single person in sight, as if this is a sandbox city.
Li Xiu looked carefully at the city gate. There were two magic words engraved on it, which should mean Tiny City. However, this was just Li Xiu's translation based on the meaning. The actual name should be better than what Li Xiu translated himself. Much more exquisite.
"This is Micro City, and it really lives up to its name." Agui said as he looked at the mini city in front of him. "It should be right here. The godly demon spirit is in this micro city." Li Xiu said and walked towards the gate of micro city.
In front of the city gate is a square paved with stone slabs. There are gardens on both sides of the square. In the middle is a stone road leading directly to the city gate. There is a stone bridge in the middle of the stone road, and under the bridge is a green moat. After Li Xiu and Bandit set foot on the stone road, the buildings on both sides seemed to get bigger as they walked forward. When they reached the stone bridge, everything around them became the same as normal size.
When the two stepped onto the stone bridge and reached the highest point of the arch bridge, they suddenly discovered that there were many people appearing out of thin air in Weicheng, which seemed to be empty of people before. The city gate was very lively with people coming and going.
Although Li Xiu already knew the magic of Weicheng from the information, he still couldn't help but sigh: "This Weicheng is really a coincidence of heaven and earth. It is so ingenious that I can't tell. It's because we have become smaller." , this micro city has become bigger.”
"I think it's because we've gotten smaller." Bandit said.
"Maybe. After entering the city, you do as I say. Those micro-human beings generally won't attack us humans, so be sure not to violate their taboos." Li Xiu warned.
The people in the micro city seem to be no different from humans, but in fact they are not humans, but a kind of demon spirit.
These micro-people are generally not of high level, but according to the data, there are two god-level micro-people in Weicheng, namely the king and queen of Weicheng.
However, Li Xiu did not come here to kill their king and queen. Li Xiu's target was not actually within Weicheng, but below Weicheng.
Under the micro city, a god-level demon spirit was suppressed, and that was the demon spirit that Li Xiu came to kill this time. As for Weiren, although they are also demons, they are no different from humans. In addition, as long as they do not violate their taboos, they will not want to kill humans. If they can coexist peacefully, Li Xiu does not want to be with them. Be an enemy.
Of course, another reason is that the two kings of Weiren, according to the president's information, are very powerful gods, and there is no record of their own abilities.
The two people walked into Weicheng. The Weicheng was very lively with lights and colorful decorations, as if they were celebrating some kind of festival.
Red lanterns were hung at the entrances of shops on both sides of the street, and vendors were everywhere, and almost everyone had a beaming look on their face.
Li Xiu and Bandit walked forward with the crowd, both of them keeping silent along the way. It's not that they don't want to talk, but because as soon as they speak, their identity will be exposed if someone hears them. Silence is the best way to avoid trouble.
Fortunately, when looking at Weicheng from the outside, it feels very small, not like a city at all. But looking from inside, this city is unimaginably big, comparable to the top metropolises. The number of Weicheng is also extremely large, and they interact with each other. Not everyone knows each other, and no one would pay special attention to two strangers.
The journey was fairly smooth. The two of them walked and looked around. After a while, they arrived at the central area of the city.
It's even more lively here than before. There are many tiny children setting off firecrackers and fireworks. It's simple here.
There is no difference between Shan and human cities.
The two people were walking on the street, when suddenly a person walked towards them and blocked the bandit's face. He was chattering and gesticulating, as if he was very excited.
The bandit didn't know what he said, but even if she could understand it, she would definitely not answer. She just raised her hand, pointed to her mouth, then pointed to her ears, and then shook her hand, meaning to tell This micro-person, she is a deaf-mute.
I originally thought that with such a gesture, the man should leave, but who knew that after he found out that the bandit was a deaf-mute, he did not retreat, and also made gestures to the bandit.
The bandit's head was spinning. She was not really deaf and mute. She had never learned sign language at all. She couldn't understand what the man meant by the comparison. She just turned to look at Li Xiu.
Li Xiu also had a big problem. It was true that he had learned magic script, but the words Wei Ren used were magic words, but the words they spoke were not magic words. It should be that they borrowed the characters from the demon country, and the pronunciation still used their own language. .
So Li Xiu didn't understand at all, so he could only pretend to be deaf and mute, and gestured with the man to indicate that he couldn't hear or speak.
The man was very persistent. Seeing that Li Xiu and Bandit couldn't understand his sign language, he made a wait signal to them, and then quickly ran to a nearby shop. Li Xiu and Ajie wanted to take this opportunity to leave quickly, but the man's movements were too fast. They had only taken a few steps when the man ran back and stopped them again, still holding paper and pen in his hand. .
The bandit knew what he wanted to do, but he could only look at Li Xiu for help. She had not studied magic texts systematically and could only understand a few common symbols.
Li Xiu gave her a reassuring look, as if he was saying that I am responsible for everything.
The man's hands and feet were very nimble. He wrote a line of words in a few strokes, and then brought the written paper to the bandit.
Li Xiu couldn't understand their language, but he still knew the magic text. Maybe their usage was a little different from that of people from the magic country, but the general meaning was not very different. Li Xiu could also judge this by combining the content before and after. What exactly does Wei Ren mean?
The bandit could only look at Li Xiu, but Li Xiu looked a little strange at this time.
Li Xiu hesitated for a moment, then reached out to take the paper and pen from the man's hand, and then wrote a few magic words on it.
He imitated the writing style and habits of that micro-person, so that his writing was very similar. In fact, if Li Xiu hadn't deliberately made some simple changes, he could have written exactly the same as that person. Weiren looked at the magic text written by Li Xiu with a look of surprise on his face. He looked at Li Xiu and then at the bandit, as if he didn't believe it, so he took the paper and pen and wrote again. A few words.
A'Gie could only stand by and watch the two people communicate through text, but could not do anything. This feeling was quite unpleasant, and made A'Gie feel like she was a mentally retarded illiterate. Of course, that's not what A'Gie cared about. What she cared about was that every time after Li Xiu finished writing, the Wei Ren looked at her with more and more weird eyes. That kind of look was very strange. It was no longer suspicion, but a look of suspicion. This kind of strange expression has never been experienced by Bandit.
She really wanted to know what Li Xiu wrote, but unfortunately the magic words were right in front of her, but she couldn't understand them no matter how hard she looked.
Li Xiu and the Wei Ren wrote a lot of words back and forth. Finally, the Wei Ren seemed to suddenly realize it. He bowed to the bandit, chatted on the phone again, and finally scratched his hair and looked at the bandit. With a long sigh, he turned and left.
The man turned back three times with each step, as if he was reluctant to leave, which made the bandit even more confused as to what was going on.
She was so curious that she couldn't say anything, so she could only continue walking forward with Li Xiu.
After passing through the central area of the city, Li Xiu led the bandit into a small alley. Strangely enough, this place is not far from the central area, and other streets nearby are quite lively and bustling. Only this alley is dilapidated, small, and deserted. There is not a single ghost figure from the entrance to the end of the alley.
"This is it. The divine demon we are looking for is suppressed under the big house in front. You can enter from there." Li Xiu said as he walked, his voice
Keep it as low as possible.
Although there should be no one here, it's better to be careful.
"What did you say to that person just now?" The bandit was obviously still thinking about what happened before.
"He said you are very beautiful and have a good temperament, and he wants to invite you to become an idol star." Li Xiu said.
"Inviting a deaf-mute person to become an idol star?" Bandit thought Li Xiu was talking nonsense, and looked at Li Xiu with eyes full of distrust.
"Yes, that's what I told him. How can a deaf-mute become an idol star? Guess what he said?" Li Xiu said and pushed the door of the house. It was locked inside and could not be pushed open.
"You won't say that I can make a living on my face. I just need to stand there and get money without doing anything, right?" Abandon curled his lips and said.
"You are so smart. What he said is almost the same as what you said. Can I believe this kind of nonsense? Of course I helped you refuse, but he is really sincere. He just thinks you can do it. Look when he left , and you still look back three times, with that reluctant look, I guess I really like you." Li Xiu said.
The bandit frowned and looked at Li Xiu. There was indeed nothing wrong with what Li Xiu said, but for some reason, she always felt that something was wrong. Li Xiu must not have told the truth, at least not completely. There must be something hidden from her.
But the bandit had no evidence, and at such a time, she didn't say much. A glimmer of light flashed from Li Xiu's finger, and he cut it in along the crack of the door. Then he reached out and pushed, and the locked door opened immediately.
The yard was in a mess, covered with thick dust. The stone tables and benches were tilted here and there, and several dead trees were covered with dust. It looked like no one had been to the yard for at least decades.
After the two entered the door, Li Xiu quietly closed the door and then walked towards the main room. The door to the main room was also closed. When Li Xiu heard that there was no movement inside, he pushed it with his hand.
He originally thought that the door might be locked, but he just pushed it gently and the door opened.
The two of them couldn't help but look inside the door. At this glance, their expressions froze slightly.
There was actually a man in the hall who was bending down to light a lamp. At this time, the man also saw Li Xiu and Bandit. His expressions were similar to theirs. He was also shocked. He even forgot to light the lamp oil with the lit match in his hand.
The key is that this man, Li Xiu, and A Bandit also knew each other, and he was the little man who stopped them on the street before.
This was a bit embarrassing. A bandit and Li Xiu looked at each other and wanted to silence them. "Stop." The man suddenly shouted lowly, which stunned both A Gai and Li Xiu who were about to take action.
He said this sentence in human language. Not only Li Xiu understood it, but A Bandit also understood it.
"It turns out that you are one of our own. You pretended to be deaf and mute before, but you really fooled me." The man said and let out an ouch and shook his hand desperately. It turned out that the match burned his hand. "You two are very hardworking. You don't understand Weiren's language and you came to Weicheng. If you are exposed, it will be a dead end and no one can save you." The man said and drew another finger. The match lit the oil lamp on the table.
Li Xiu and Bandit looked at the man and couldn't tell for a moment whether he was a micro-human, a demon or a human from Earth, so they remained silent.
The man looked very talkative. He curled his lips and said, "Why are you two pretending? No one will come here. As long as you don't make too much noise, it will be safe."
As he said that, the man picked up the oil lamp and shined it towards the wall of the room: "You are also here for the miniatures, right? Since we all have the same goal, let's look for it together, but there has to be a first-come, first-served basis. I'm here Weicheng has been undercover for so many years, and finally found out the whereabouts of the miniatures. I took advantage of the Glimmer Festival to come here to find the pictures, so the original pictures must belong to me. But you must have suffered a lot to find this place. You are taking a big risk by pretending to be deaf and dumb. I can let you make a copy to take away. Anyway, the important thing about the miniature is the content. As long as the content is correct, whether it is the same as the original picture or not, if it is not for the purpose of going back for submission, It doesn’t matter to me whether it’s original or not.”
「
To whom are you going to deliver? Li Xiu asked.
He knew that this man talked so much to them not because he was really a talker, but because he was afraid that Li Xiu and Bandit would get into trouble and alert the people outside.
"You don't need to know this. Just tell me whether you and I will accept my proposal." The man said.
Li Xiu knew it was going to be bad as soon as he heard it, but he suppressed the thought of turning around to look at the bandit and pretended to be nonchalant.
Even without turning around to look, Li Xiu could feel the bandit's eyes staring at him. "Okay, we can accept your proposal, but as you say first, after we find the miniatures, we must look at them together." Li Xiu didn't know what the miniatures were at all, but he was afraid that if the person continued to talk, then he would really A good ending.
"Come on, it's a deal." The man stretched out his hand to Li Xiu and said with a smile: "Let's get to know each other. My name is Yang Tianxiao. You can call me Lao Yang or Brother Yang. Judging from your age, you should be older than me. Smaller."
Li Xiu was not afraid to give his name, but he was afraid that Yang Tianxiao would continue talking, so he pretended to be cold and arrogant and said: "Stop talking so much nonsense, it's more important to find the miniatures. Do you know where the miniatures are?"
"I only found out that the miniature is in this house. Where exactly is it? We can only find it together. And we have to do it quickly. If we can't find it before the end of the Glimmer Festival, we have to leave immediately, otherwise it will be considered as found. There is no way to get out of here in miniature." Yang Tian said with a smile.
"Why can't you go out?" Li Xiu asked with a frown.
"You don't even know that Weicheng's Shimmer defense system will be temporarily suspended only during the Shimmer Festival? Then how did you know to come here at this time?" Yang Tianxiao looked surprised.
Li Xiu really didn't know that such a thing happened. He only knew that the information said that people could only come in during this period, so he came to Weicheng first, intending to take this opportunity to kill the suppressed mythical demon spirits. , and then go to other trial places.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know. You are here anyway. It just so happens that we can search separately and save some time. I hope that the miniatures can be found before the end of the Glimmer Festival. It will benefit everyone by then." Yang Tian He pointed to the outside with a smile and said: "This house happens to have three courtyards. Let's find one courtyard each. Once we find it, we will contact the others immediately. We must not take it all for ourselves."
"That's fine, we'll search this courtyard while you go to other courtyards." Li Xiu said.
This is the main courtyard of the house. If there is something, the possibility is highest here. Moreover, the suppressed demon spirit is also here, so it needs to be entered from here.
"Okay, I'll go to the other courtyard. I, Yang Tianxiao, am a trustworthy person. If I say I'll share, I'll share. You can't break your promise." Yang Tianxiao said and walked out of the door, heading to the courtyard on the left. "I'll help you look after the demon spirit as soon as possible." The bandit said and went out.
Li Xiu nodded, turned around and entered the back room.
Yang Tianxiao had just entered the door when he suddenly heard a voice behind him. He turned around and saw that it was the bandit. He smiled bitterly and said, "You two are really suspicious. If you think the miniatures are in this yard, then I'll go find someone else." One yard is enough, right?”
"What did you and him write on the street just now?" Agui stopped Yang Tianxiao who was about to go to another yard and asked.
"Don't get me wrong. I'm not pretending to be a Weiren. You have to abide by the rules of a Weiren. The Shimmer Festival is a festival for Weiren to choose their spouses and reproduce their offspring. I think you are beautiful and you definitely don't like me. Only After being rejected by you, I was able to disappear for a while without arousing suspicion. Who knew that it was such a coincidence that I chose you. I really didn't know that you were married and had three daughters and two daughters. A son, and I didn’t know you were still..."
At this point, Yang Tianxiao did not continue, but looked at the bandit's face.
"What else do I want?" A bandit asked expressionlessly.
