Wushen City.
It is necessary to plan the formation shop.
The lazy shopkeeper Xu Tuzi yawned and looked at the bustling crowd outside the door. No one entered his shop to discuss business. After muttering something, he closed his eyes and fell asleep leisurely again.
They say that the more people there are in Wushen City, the more money they can make. That’s bullshit!
In the backyard, there was an alcoholic lying on the ground half leaning against a willow tree, taking a small sip from his wine gourd every few breaths.
In front of him, a teenage girl wearing green clothes with a ponytail on her head held a Bailuo sword, swinging it like a moon and a hook. The sword moves are fast and pure, and some of the movements even look a little awkward, without any sense of beauty.
After a while, the little girl sheathed her sword and stood still.
Helplessly glanced at the sleeping alcoholic master and the sleeping uncle Xu Tuzi in the front shop, the little girl looked at the sky and stuck out her tongue speechlessly.
"A drunkard and a slacker!"
After pouting her nose and complaining in a low voice, she hurried upstairs to wash up. The backyard building has three floors, and her own room is on the second floor.
"Hey!"
As soon as she stepped onto the stairs, she suddenly covered her head and screamed softly, then turned her head and looked at the alcoholic master who was still sleeping under the willow tree twenty meters away with an annoyed look on her face. The old drunkard turned over and scratched his butt as if nothing had happened.
"snort!"
After humming softly to express her inner spiritual quality of neither being humble nor being arrogant, she rubbed her head and left.
After taking a bath, the little girl quickly changed her clothes. After packing up, he put on a plain cloth and went into the kitchen of the courtyard.
The kitchen is located on the east side of the small courtyard, with the door opening to the west, facing the willow tree.
The old Liutou under the willow tree shook his empty wine gourd and hung it back on his waist helplessly.
Seeing little Yiyi's diligent figure busy around, Lao Liutou happily burped his wine and said, "My precious apprentice is really more and more pleasing to the eye. He is both diligent and beautiful. Yiyi, if any brat marries you in the future, he will definitely It is the virtue accumulated by our ancestors for eight generations.”
"Hehe." Liu Yiyi smiled mischievously, her energetic smile like a willow tree and her cute pout were extremely attractive.
"But... Yiyi is so obedient. If his master's wine gourd runs out of wine, he will be very obedient and buy a bar for his master?" Old Liutou pretended to be serious.
"dream!"
The little girl was not going to be taken advantage of, so she walked into the kitchen with her ponytail swung.
She won't be fooled!
It was getting dusk, and Xu Tuzi's cursing voice could be heard. It was obviously another day without business.
"Yiyi, what are you going to eat tonight?"
Old Liutou shouted towards the kitchen.
A little head poked out from the door of the kitchen and said a little mischievously, "The porridge cooked tonight is still the preserved egg and lean meat porridge that you don't like. You two big seniors should stop being greedy."
The old drunkard rolled his eyes and went out to wander around with the wine gourd in hand.
Xu Tuzi, who came to the courtyard, smiled and shook his head, "If you don't drink it, I will drink it. The porridge cooked by Yiyi warms the stomach and is nutritious, and it tastes great. It's a pity that you, an old drunkard, don't have the opportunity to taste it. It seems that I am more blessed." .”
Liu Yiyi, who was snickering in front of the stove, hurriedly filled a bowl for her uncle.
Xu Tuzi, who quickly drank half a bowl of porridge, remembered something and said, "Yiyi, remember to give that boy something to eat. Don't starve to death at home."
Liu Yiyi nodded in response, "I know, uncle."
After a while, Liu Yiyi walked up to the second floor carrying a bowl of steaming porridge. There were only two people living in several rooms on the second floor.
Next to her own room, there was a small, dark room. The door was unlocked, so Liu Yiyi gently knocked on the door and pushed it open.
"It's time to eat."
There were no windows in the house, and the curtains blocked the only source of light. Fortunately, the door behind her was half open and a ray of light came through, otherwise Liu Yiyi would have been really afraid of bumping into her with her rice.
There was no response in the whole room, as if there was no one at all.
With the help of weak light and almost a year of intuition, Liu Yiyi slowly walked to the bed with her rice in hand. When her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she could vaguely make out the corner where the figure on the bed was huddled.
"promise!"
Liu Yiyi handed the porridge over and stretched out a hand in the darkness to take it.
The thin figure on the bed began to eat silently, not even making the slightest sound while eating.
The little girl sat on the edge of the bed with her feet swaying lightly. Although the room was a little dark, she did not open the curtains. Instead, he fumbled around on the table very skillfully for a while, holding a little puppet or something like that in his arms.
"Weren't the stars pretty last night?"
"Hmm..." A faint response came from the bed that was almost inaudible.
Liu Yiyi whispered tentatively and said quickly, "Would you like to accompany me for a walk on the moat tonight? I'm so pitiful. I've been trapped at home by Master for more than half a month, and I haven't even left the house. Today is really... If you want to go out, this is my first time inviting a boy, so don’t be ungrateful."
The sound of eating porridge suddenly stopped.
Liu Yiyi turned her head with a questioning look, and the two of them were silent for a long time.
The black shadow who subconsciously curled up shook his head slightly, but seemed to remember Liu Yiyi's care for him for nearly a year, so he shook his head and stopped midway.
After a long while, Heiying struggled and nodded, and then she smiled and said, "You eat first, and I will come up and call you after I finish washing the dishes."
Liu Yiyi, carrying an empty bowl, quietly closed the door.
Looking at the empty bowl and the little wooden sculpture in her right hand, she felt inexplicably happy.
Recently, the gap between him and her has become smaller and smaller. From the beginning, she couldn't get in through the door, but now she can ask him to come out to the courtyard at night to admire the moon. The obstacles in the other party's heart were slowly dissolved by her own warmth, and Liu Yiyi felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart!
And the fact that the other party can start carving wood carvings shows that his mentality has been adjusted much better and he is no longer as depressed as before!
She couldn't wait to have a new partner to play with in her practice, otherwise it would be no fun to face the combination of a sleepy uncle and an old drunkard all day long!
Just after sunset and twilight began to appear, Liu Yiyi couldn't wait to walk out of her house.
"Dong dong dong!"
She knocked lightly, but did not go in this time.
The wooden door slowly opened a crack, and there was an eerie silence, as if there was something terrible inside. After taking a few breaths, before anyone came out, Liu Yiyi immediately thought of something.
She quickly dodged into the house, grabbed the arm of the hesitating figure in front of her, and walked out.
The black shadow seemed to hesitate, and made a panicked voice like a young man, "I...I...don't..."
Under the twilight light, the black shadow revealed its true appearance. He is a short-haired boy with fair features and a bit weak and skinny. The boy is about the same age as Liu Yiyi. He is wearing old blue brocade clothes and his hair is dirty and messy. Despite the dark circles under his eyes and dirty hair, he still looks decent.
If the avoidance in his eyes is replaced by perseverance, he will definitely be a rich man with excellent education and connotation.
Perhaps considering the young man's heart, Liu Yiyi frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Wait for me."
After saying that, she ran back into the house. After a moment, he took out two colorful masks and handed one to the boy.
"Here, Master bought me a mask. I'll give you the dog mask, and I'll use the cat mask for myself. We won't be afraid of being recognized when we wear it."
The skinny and sickly white hand took over the handsome puppy mask. Looking at Liu Yiyi who had already put on the cute kitten mask, Jiang Yun opened his mouth but did not say a word of rejection.
When Jiang Yun just put on the mask, Liu Yiyi dragged him away without saying a word.
Two roughly the same size figures walked quickly down the stairs. Liu Yiyi said excitedly along the way, "Tomorrow the White Bird Sword Pavilion will recruit students, and tonight they will be promoting the ceremony on the moat! The White Bird Sword Pavilion only recruits female disciples, and those who came to recruit students today are all Extremely beautiful swordsman, please don’t secretly sneeze under the mask when you arrive.”
Jiang Yun was held by the hand, until the moment Liu Yiyi opened the door, he subconsciously raised his hands to cover his face, fearing that outsiders would see him. Unfortunately, Liu Yiyi was quick to hold down both of his hands.
Remembering that he was still wearing a mask, Jiang Yun stopped fussing. He stood as if he was in another world, looking around in confusion.
There are noisy cars and horses in front of the door, and there is a flood of people passing by and staying. This scene has not been seen for a long time.
After hiding in his room for most of the year, he looked at the strange yet familiar lights on the street, with a trace of uneasiness and nostalgia flashing in his eyes.
"Let's go, let's go."
Liu Yiyi, who was wearing a dark green skirt next to her, gave him a few seconds to adapt, and then urged him to walk quickly.
The moat is a circular river in Wushen City, surrounding the four districts of the city. The river water ranges from deep to shallow, and there are even fish and shrimps in the shallow parts, so crystal clear that you can see the bottom.
However, no one dares to fish randomly. After all, there are many ferocious beasts among these sea creatures, and there are also many demon cultivators hiding under the river.
If a demon cultivator is salvaged, it’s not certain who will eat whom!
It is said that the moat was created by a great master from the Sky Patrol who moved mountains and seas, and spent a lot of money to set up formations in it to replace the sea water from the distant sea into the moat every day. Because of the formation, the river exudes a light fragrance all year round. People who live next to it can smell it to nourish themselves, calm their mind, and feel comfortable.
As for the White Bird Sword Pavilion, it is a sect of sword cultivation. In Wushen City, his strength may be average, but his reputation is not small.
His sect only recruits female disciples, and their appearance and talent must be of the highest quality to be appreciated. Therefore, this sect has left many reputations as Pure Heart Sword Immortal and Jade Girl Sword Immortal. The beautiful Sword Fairy with both strength and appearance naturally has many suitors.
A section of the east moat.
"There are fewer people here, let's just stand here and watch."
Liu Yiyi pulled Jiang Yun, and the two petite figures did not dare to squeeze into the crazy crowd. Instead, they hid on the grass relatively far away and stopped. At this time, the shore was already crowded with people, including many practitioners. However, with so many practitioners and mortals together, no one dared to cause chaos.
Just because on the moat, every few dozen meters there is a practitioner wearing white clothes and a white mask on his face, flying with a sword or standing on the waves.
These people in white are uniformly dressed, with a strange stone pattern tattooed on their chests.
The strange thing is that everyone on the shore, including powerful practitioners, try to avoid the area where the man in white is, as if they are afraid that they will be implicated if they get too close.
The moat is under the jurisdiction of the Sky Patrol, and a group of people in white are naturally the law enforcement officers of the Sky Patrol. They are the most powerful cultivation force in Biyou Kingdom. They manage and restrict the entire cultivation world, prevent practitioners from killing and abusing mortals, and maintain the stable operation of the country.
White clothes and white masks are their standard equipment.
If White Bird Sword Pavilion wants to hold a ceremony on the moat, it needs to apply to the Sky Patrol Supervisor in advance. After you succeed and pay a certain fee, you will be allowed to perform the ceremony on the moat. The patrol will also send law enforcement officers to maintain order on both sides of the river.
Otherwise, let alone holding a ceremony on the moat, even Yukong Swagger would be invited to tea by the Inspector.
In Biyou Country, no one dares to challenge the authority of the Sky Patrol!
"I'm coming!"
The excitement coming from the edge of the river immediately cheered up the anxious people who were waiting. Three or two practitioners who were sitting cross-legged in meditation or four or five mortal literati who gathered around to discuss how beautiful the fairy was stood up one after another.
A long sword rides the wind and waves, the shadow of a white bird condenses on his clothes, and the sword light from a hundred miles adds to his clothes!
