"Ah, it hurts, please don't pull it!!"
Jiang Yuebai's tears were so painful that Yun Shang was so frightened that she quickly retracted her hands and studied the two small Ganoderma lucidum on Jiang Yuebai's head with surprise and novelty.
"So cute~"
Jiang Yuebai gnawed on the crispy snake meat, her face covered with oil.
"It's not cute at all. If the people in Snake Village find out that I am a foreigner, they will kill me. But it's also strange. Why are the Wu Clan so repulsive to foreigners? Don't they all say that foreigners were created by the ancient Celestial Witch Clan? ?"
Yun Shang gently poked the Ganoderma lucidum on Jiang Yuebai's head with her finger. Jiang Yuebai frowned, and the Ganoderma lucidum also moved twice.
"I don't know either. We just arrived at Snake Village when my little aunt met an old friend and was called to help. I didn't dare to go out alone. I had been bored for many days and really wanted to eat. When I went out to buy something to eat, I was hit by a hydrangea. ……well!"
"You not only bought food, but you also bought story books. Aren't you going to eat rice?"
Yun Shang sat down with a blush, "My little aunt was here before and kept staring at me, but I couldn't help it anymore."
Jiang Yuebai raised his eyebrows, "I understand, I won't tell her. I think we have just established the foundation. It is still difficult to completely cut off the desire for food and drink. It is not beautiful to push yourself too much."
"It's better to let go and taste the delicacies from all over the world, and then it will be easier to calm down. I didn't encounter any delicious food in the Liusha Region, and I was able to live without food for more than three years."
Yun Shang nodded, sat down and picked up a piece of crispy snake meat, laughing and eating with Jiang Yuebai.
"Try this stir-fried mushrooms. They are mushrooms from the Shiwan Mountains. They are particularly delicious."
Yun Shang gave Jiang Yuebai a pair of chopsticks, and the Ganoderma lucidum moved on Jiang Yuebai's head. He felt an indescribable strange feeling in his heart. The fungus and the Ganoderma lucidum... seemed to be the same kind.
"How have you been these past few years? Does Master Yu still control you strictly?" Jiang Yuebai didn't move his chopsticks.
Yun Shang shook her head, "My little aunt is more relaxed about me now. When she first established the foundation, she also traveled to the nine regions. There were people she knew everywhere. Everywhere she went, she left me to find her friends, so I I traveled on my own for part of the time and experienced many life and death crises.”
"If the men in Baipu Domain weren't so enthusiastic, I wouldn't have called you to accompany me. But Xiaobai, why are you practicing so fast? I was the one who built the foundation first, but you reached the middle stage of foundation building before me. But I won’t call you senior sister, I will call you Xiaobai.”
Jiang Yuebai sighed, "There's nothing I can do about it. There was an accident in Cangyan Land before, and I accidentally turned myself into a fire demon spirit body. Cultivation is so fast, and the problem of forming pills in the future will be particularly big. Now I become a stranger just to form a pill."
Seeing the book that Yun Shang put on the table, Jiang Yuebai asked again, "Does the Wu Clan really have such a thing as the Love Gu? Once planted, it can make the other half loyal?"
Yun Shang glanced at the book, shook her head and said, "No, my little aunt told me that women in the Wu clan have a very high status. Only women have the right to inherit all property, and men are accessories."
"If a Witch Clan woman falls in love with a man, that man must follow him unless he can defeat that woman. Even men who fall in love with other people can be snatched away through a Gu fight, so why do they cultivate love Gu?"
"The stories in these books about the women of the Wu tribe who are so in love with a certain man that they risk their lives to plant the so-called love poison. I think they are all imagined by the men of the Wu tribe. But the women of the Wu tribe don't accept this. If I hadn't dug it out of the corner, this book would still be gathering dust."
Jiang Yuebai nodded, "Can't men from the Wu clan go somewhere else to make a living? Don't you feel aggrieved here?"
Yun Shang's eyes flashed, "I know this. The man who blocked me in the room earlier was interested in me as a foreign monk and wanted me to take him out of the Baipu Domain. Men born in the Wu Clan cannot marry unless they are married. They are allowed to leave privately, they must have been poisoned by some kind of poison since they were born, and they cannot leave."
"I see, when will the Gu fight begin?" Jiang Yuebai asked.
Yun Shang calculated, "It will be held in Toad Village in about two and a half months. During this time, I want to go into the outskirts of Shiwanda Mountain to collect strange insects and beasts in Baipu Domain. Xiaobai, can you accompany me?"
"Of course you can. There are many kinds of spiritual herbs and elixirs in Shiwanda Mountain, and I need to collect more elixirs. But before setting off, you should accompany me around the Snake Village. I need to find out about the Witch Clan and the aliens. Things between people.”
"Immortal Grass Sutra" now requires 100,000 points to upgrade Yunzhicao bloodline from level 6 to level 7. She has to save up little by little. Entering the 100,000 Mountain is a good choice.
The two of them ate and drank enough and went out arm in arm.
Jiang Yuebai still dressed in men's clothing. The hosta on her head not only hid her evil aura, but also made it difficult for others to see whether she was a boy or a girl and what her level of cultivation was.
When any Wu men on the road saw Yun Shang accompanied by Jiang Yuebai, they would silently give up the idea of throwing the hydrangea.
Both of them wanted to try something delicious when they saw it, but they avoided the local wine soaked in various poisonous insects.
In a shop that sells books, Jiang Yuebai found many translations of ancient demon texts, which were more complete than those in Shanhai Tower in Liusha Domain, and they were easy to understand in simple and profound terms.
She could only understand a small part of the music score in the Jade Bamboo Flute, and she still needed to continue learning the ancient demon literature.
When Jiang Yuebai was buying books, she tried to find out why the Wu clan rejected foreigners. The female shopkeeper of the bookstore kept it secret, reasoning that it was not allowed to talk about foreigners in the Snake Village.
When they heard that Jiang Yuebai and Yun Shang were going to Shiwanda Mountain, they kindly reminded them that each village in Shiwandashan had its own designated territory, which was quite exclusive and unfriendly, so they had better not get into trouble with the people in the village. conflict.
In the past, foreign monks who came here often offended one person, which eventually led to the revenge of the entire village.
Jiang Yuebai thanked the female shopkeeper and bought a "History of Heavenly Witches" and three books on ancient demon texts.
When the female shopkeeper received the spirit stone, she secretly touched Jiang Yuebai's hand and winked.
"Would you like to play in the back with your sister?"
Jiang Yuebai was so frightened that she quickly grabbed Yun Shang and ran away. She felt that neither men nor women were safe here.
The people of the Wu Clan are few and far between, and they rarely intermarry with foreigners, so they are very liberal in that regard and have a culture of worship in that regard, hoping that the Wu Clan will spread and grow stronger.
After buying medicines to avoid poison and miasma and some insect repellent and poison, the two of them went into the clothing store.
"This suit looks good, I want to wear it." Jiang Yuebai said to Yun Shang, pulling on a set of Wu Clan skirts hanging on the wall in the store.
Yunshang was pulling on another set, "I want to wear it too."
The two looked at each other and said at the same time, "You're pretending to be a man."
The two of them looked at each other insistently, both wanting to put on nice skirts and let the other pretend to be a man to avoid unnecessary trouble.
In the end, Yun Shang compromised first, "How about we take turns pretending to be men, one person for three days?"
"make a deal!"
Jiang Yuebai readily agreed and bought two sets of Wu Clan clothes with Yun Shang. They went out and matched some silver jewelry before going back, preparing to rest for the night and go into the mountains tomorrow.
Late at night, while Jiang Yuebai was refining essence and taking it in his room, a girl in her early twenties walked into the backyard of Wangjiang Tower.
Her simple blue dress was full of tears, and her face was stained with dirt and blood, but her shrewd eyes were filled with joy.
"Hey, Lu Ying is back? You have been in the mountains for more than three months. Have you found the elixir for foundation building?" asked the middle-aged man who was chopping firewood in the backyard.
Lu Ying smiled and nodded, "I found it. I'm going to go into seclusion to build the foundation. Could you please Uncle Weng tell the shopkeeper for me, and I'll make up for the missed work when I get out of seclusion."
"Okay, first I wish you success in building the foundation."
Under the bright moon, Lu Ying looked in the direction of Tianyan Sect with a smile on her lips.
"Xiao Bai, I'm going to build a foundation. I wonder if you are okay now?"
