Huan Xiao watched from the corner as Plum Blossom Girl and the others left after buying pork.
After confirming that the three people went to another alley, Huan Xiao came out.
She didn't hesitate and left along the exit of Human and Animal Street.
Back on the ground, in the pouring rain, Huan Xiao took out a map to see if there were other human and animal streets nearby.
This time, she really found it!
However, the nearest Human and Animal Street is ten kilometers away. If she goes there, she is a little worried that she will not be able to find her way back.
Huanxiao thought for a while, if she got lost, the worst she could do was to be lost in the ghost world for four days. When the time was up, Yuyu would send her back.
So, she decided to go shopping in Human and Animal Street!
After thinking about it, she used ghost energy to speed up...
The scenery along the way is changeable, with ruined villages, black rivers, bustling ghost markets...
Many strange-looking ghosts passed by Huanxiao. None of them noticed that humans were leaving their side. They just thought it was a dark wind blowing by.
After more than ten minutes, Huanxiao followed the map's guidance and arrived in a forest.
Above the green grass, a large tree that can barely be hugged by a dozen people comes into view.
The rain beats on the leaves, making a "sasha" sound, which is pleasant to the ears, like the elves of the trees dancing.
However, a big hole was opened in the tree stump, destroying the beauty.
Huanxiao released his invisibility and asked the passing ghosts, only to find out that this black hole was the entrance to Human and Animal Street.
So, she followed the other ghosts and walked in.
When everything was dark in front of him, Huan Xiao wiped the ghost energy on his eyes and saw a different scenery inside.
There are black and gray walls and no stairs. All the ghosts use ghost energy to float down.
After reaching solid ground, Huan Xiao had time to look at the place.
Different from the Human and Animal Street she went to before, this time the Human and Animal Street has a more ghostly style.
Dilapidated houses, withered flowers and plants, silent streets, and the rotten smell in the air is particularly obvious.
The stalls here are not people, but ghosts.
Moreover, humans cannot walk on the streets.
As far as the eye can see, all human beings are locked in iron cages, coveted by ghosts and monsters like they are selling livestock.
Every ghost looked at the cage with greedy and coveting eyes. The humans were trembling in the cage, unable to resist.
Along the way, because of Huanxiao's human appearance, many humans in cages looked at her, as if they were trying to tell whether she was a human or a ghost.
However, no one dared to ask her for help.
After walking along the street for a long time, Huan Xiao finally saw a place selling human food.
It was a candy-colored shop filled with all kinds of food, even cakes!
Huanxiao pushed the door open and walked in. What greeted her was a cute ghost. Of course, the cuteness mentioned here is judged according to human aesthetics.
The ghost energy on it is very weak, but if you think about it, if the ghost energy is strong, which ghost will come to Human and Animal Street to work as a shop assistant?
"What do guests want to buy? We have a variety of human feeds in our store! Today's recommendation is Xiangpupu milk tea. It is said that humans like to drink this kind of thing."
As he spoke, the ghost clerk picked up a cup of milk tea mixed with various ingredients from the shelf nearby.
"I'll shop by myself." Huanxiao waved her hand to tell the ghost clerk not to hang around in front of her.
Hearing this, the ghost clerk lowered his head and floated away with regret.
After coming in, Huan Xiao really started to look at the things sold here.
There are chocolate, milk, nuts, biscuits, spicy bars, moon cakes... everything on the shelves.
Huan Xiao picked up a bag of food and planned to check the production date. Because she had chatted with other people before, she knew the specific time they took the bus.
The production date printed on the packaging bag is from a few days ago. This is obviously a new product.
Huanxiao suspected that the ghosts had robbed humans' food trucks. This is stealing human goods to feed humans in the ghost world!
On the packaging bags of different foods are the addresses of different human factories. After discovering this, she felt relieved.
If the food was made by ghosts, she wouldn't feel at ease eating it, but if it was made by humans, she would feel more at ease!
At this time, another customer came to the store.
Looking up, I saw a ghost vendor.
Huan Xiao was deeply impressed by it, not for any particular reason, but mainly because the ghost was so ugly that Huan Xiao remembered it.
As soon as he came in, the ghost vendor used his ghost energy to grab most of the food on the shelf next to him, and then said neatly:
"Bill, please."
It had no choice, and it didn't even see what was in the things it bought. Among them, a delicately crafted butter flower turned into an unknown pink object due to shaking.
"Five human and animal coins...Guest, move slowly!"
After the ghost clerk sent the ghost vendor away, he lay on the cashier counter waiting for the next customer.
From the look of it, it seems boring. No wonder I wanted to follow Huan Xiao just now. It was probably because it was rare to meet a customer who would choose carefully in the store, and I wanted to find something to do.
Because time was not in a hurry, Huanxiao was very slow to pick things up. When he saw something new, he wanted to pick it up and look at it, so it took him nearly twenty minutes.
After taking some of what she wanted to eat from the shelves, Huanxiao went to pay.
Human and animal coins are universal in all animal streets, so Huanxiao does not need to worry about the currency of the ghost world, which is good news for her.
After paying the bill, Huan Xiao left with a bag of food in his arms with satisfaction.
On the way, passing by the ghost vendor just now, Huanxiao saw it throwing the food in its hands into the cage very impatiently, with an extremely bad attitude.
But the people in the cage have become accustomed to the attitude of the ghost traders. They compete with each other for food and hate each other.
Bite with your teeth, grab with your hands, no matter what method you use, just to get food to fill your stomach.
Some people's fingers were broken off, some people's eyes were hit blind, some people's hair was pulled out and blood stained half of their scalps red, some people's nails were split open and their flesh and blood were bloody...
The ghost trader stood outside the cage and laughed, mocking the group of humans who fought against their own kind because of food.
The people in the cage have been transformed by ghosts into the appearance of animals and will never become human again.
At the stall, there were as few as three people in each cage, and as many as a dozen people. Because of the lack of food, competition was extremely fierce.
The ghost traders wait for the ghosts coming and going to buy the humans and animals in the cages with their ghost spirits. The air is filled with various stinks, just like a pig pen.
Huan Xiao didn't pay much attention to the transaction between ghosts.
After buying snacks, she did not stay too long in Human and Animal Street, because her purpose of coming out had been achieved!
So Huan Xiao quickly returned in the direction he came from...
