Chapter 45: Linxian Town (2)
"What is Xiaowu looking at?"
A plain white handkerchief appeared out of thin air in Yu Shu's hand, and his long fingers, which were almost the same color as the handkerchief, held the corner of the handkerchief, approached her mouth, and wiped off the crumbs of the pastry. The tone is casual and casual.
Shu Xiaowu, who was bulging with a mouthful of cakes, was stunned, and the hand holding the cake that took a big bite froze in the air. The dark eyes suddenly widened, and she couldn't swallow the cake in her mouth, so she could only bulge her cheeks in a stalemate.
He, he, this action is too intimate, what does he mean!
"Pfft Xiaowu eat slowly, don't choke." Yu Shu was in a good mood, and after watching her stare at him, he felt even better.
Shu Xiaowu felt that the soft and sweet cakes in his mouth were slowly soaked, and the previous dryness disappeared little by little, so he slowly swallowed the cakes with his mouth.
After swallowing it all, she closed her eyes, calmed herself in her heart, put this matter behind her, and told herself that she must not think too much, go too far...
"Yu Shu, are there any other races here?" She suppressed the embarrassment and looked around, answering his previous question, trying to resolve the embarrassment.
Although her voice was not loud, a few eyes fell on her as soon as her voice fell.
Shu Xiaowu was shocked and shrank. Those eyes don't seem to be very friendly!
Yu Shu noticed the few people who were looking at this place, and glanced at him lightly, showing the aura of a strong man. Those few people frowned, knowing that they had hit a hard one, and they left quickly.
Even if there is no apparent racial dispute here, the strong naturally have the most favorable right to speak.
No longer caring about the person who left, Yu Shu took Shu Xiaowu by his side and let her get close to him. He didn't condemn her previous behavior, he just pointed to the gray-clothed men in front of a weapon shop who were similar to most of them.
Said: "That is a fox demon, red fox"
As if deliberately, when he said the word "red fox", his tone became stronger, and a pair of wine red eyes looked at her with a smile, which was quite meaningful.
Shu Xiaowu's face instantly flushed red, and he pouted and secretly aimed at the said "red fox demon".
Seeing the fox demon who was wearing black clothes, she didn't show the slightest bit of coquettishness, but inexplicably felt "arrogant", and she quickly turned her eyes back in embarrassment, and her face was dripping with blood.
Needless to say Yu Shu, she also remembered the deeper origin of the word "red fox demon".
Wangtian... that was more than a hundred years ago, okay? He actually heard it at the time, and remembered it for so long, pinching his claws!
"Does Xiaowu still think I'm a red fox demon?"
Yu Shu smiled, and his words were full of ridicule. The long and narrow eyeliner gently picked up the fox demon who was trying to get close, and red light flashed in his eyes.
The moment the red fox demon saw the color of his eyes, he immediately dropped the triangular dagger he had just picked up at the stall and fled.
With red eyes, black hair and a red robe, plus the aura from that glance, if he guessed correctly, then it's the Demon Lord!
Don't run, wait to be swallowed?
Shu Xiaowu didn't feel the waves in front of her. She had no face to raise her head at this time. She could only blushed and shook her head tightly while holding the food box.
How dare she think that he is a red fox again, he is a devil, a unique devil!
"So nice."
Hearing his brisk voice coming from his ear, feeling the warmth of the palm of the hand above his head, Shu Xiaowu held his face and hugged the food box even tighter, trying to cheer himself up in his heart, hurry up and put this little one. Forget the episode
--
When Shu Xiaowu calmed down his inner emotions and raised his head again, the red fox demon named by Yu Shu before had no idea where he was going
But she wouldn't touch the bad head by herself, and then look for his figure. Didn't she panic after eating too much?
...Shu Xiaowu looked at the food box she was holding, and took out a mung bean cake from it, "Ahhhh", stuffed it into her mouth, and chewed it... Although she did eat a little too much.
They continued to walk forward. In addition to having the same daily shops as ordinary towns, Linxian Town also had a special area designated for the exchange of currency between various ethnic groups.
As we got closer to the depths of the town, there were more and more stalls selling spirit grasses and other treasures. At the same time that the merchants on both sides are dense, there are more and more gray-black people passing by.
Different from Yu Shu's red and Shu Xiaowu's verdant green, the people who appear here are basically dressed in dark clothes, mostly gray and black. Even many people do not want to cause too much trouble to themselves in order to hide, and they also take the initiative to wear cloaks, making it even more difficult to distinguish their identities and appearances.
Shu Xiaowu still held the food box and walked next to Yu Shu, looking at the various small shops on both sides while walking.
The stalls on the roadside occupy a fixed size, one family is next to another, and even each position seems to have been agreed in advance. After a certain time, it will automatically evacuate; immediately, there will be another New stalls occupy this position.
Shu Xiaowu rolled his eyes, looking at the dynamic changes, and found it very interesting.
When she came here with Yu Shu this time, she didn't know Yu Shu's intentions, but looking at the long treasure street that was delayed to the road, maybe he was looking for some treasures in it!
However, before she could see Yu Shu approaching a small vendor, a force suddenly appeared on her back. Before she could react, he dragged her back.
The sense of strength that her body slammed back was so strong that she was so shocked that she almost lost her voice. She could only hold the food box in front of her tightly and try to regain her body's center of gravity. It's a pity that her resistance was useless, she only felt that the force was too strong, and she leaned back and staggered.
When she was about to pounce on the cold and hard ground, Shu Xiaowu found the strength in front of her and suddenly showed off, pulling her into a familiar embrace.
This incident only happened in seconds, and the passers-by who didn't watch the scene were all tensed up and retreated to the sides, leaving a certain amount of space for the three of them.
Such a confrontation between the two sides and the tension between the two sides is forbidden in Linxian Town, but if it occurs, as long as the two sides do not make a move, it is not a violation; if they do, the two of them will be attacked.
Yu Shu raised his red robe and drew a circle on the flat ground, hugging the person who started, and looking at the person opposite him coldly. Among the red pupils, two clusters of flames seemed to have burned, but Ling Han's light flashed.
Shu Xiaowu's heart hadn't recovered yet, and in shock, he stood firm in Yu Shu's arms and looked at the food box that was held in his arms. Even with such a big movement, he didn't even open the lid of the box, so he patted himself. His chest, and after concentrating, he turned his eyes to the perpetrator.
"You are that monster." The girl opposite the two stared at Shu Xiaowu with bright eyes like stars, not showing malice, but full of interest. He didn't care if he didn't make a move, and wiggled his fingers in place casually, without being cautious about the current situation at all.
She looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a silver-gray silk brocade robe with cloud patterns embroidered between the cuffs and collars. The robe is not long, just reaching the ankle, and a pair of silver boots of the same color are covered with dark golden lines. In this almost uniform gray and black, her body, coupled with her beautiful appearance, is particularly dazzling.
Shu Xiaowu was strange. It was the first time someone was called a monster by someone using the phrase "light and light", and he was a little confused about the situation.
Yu Shu's eyes narrowed, and a trace of malice flashed in the eyes of the girl opposite, and his voice was calm and suppressed: "Who are you?"
He actually couldn't see her true form, presumably her identity was not simple.
"I won't tell you." The corners of Long Huai's mouth widened, and he deliberately raised his head towards him proudly, but she could see the look in his previous eyes. But who is she, she is not afraid of him!
Thinking so, she looked at Shu Xiaowu beside him again. Compared to seeing her ten years ago, she has grown up a lot, but she still seems so stupid!
The dragons have a very sensitive sense of races, and she can remember the races they have seen once. Therefore, even if Shu Xiaowu was no longer the little fool who didn't even know when he fell into someone else's trap, Long Huai could still recognize her.
Long Huai has never forgotten Shu Xiaowu, and the more important reason is that what happened to her is really weird.
The father said that the tortoise shell will not make mistakes in judgment. If such a thing really happened, then there must be an unpredictable anomaly.
And in this world, the first anomaly that appeared was the birth of the Demon Lord Yu Shu...
"Hey, little monster, you forgot about me? I helped you ten years ago, you wouldn't be so ungrateful, would you?" Long Huai laughed, and what he said was not serious.
The situation where the three of them suddenly confronted has affected the development of this market, but because there was no hands-on action, no one suddenly took the initiative to stop them.
Shu Xiaowu frowned, and his mind twitched for a while, but he still hadn't thought that someone like her helped him ten years ago.
Could it be that she was the one who performed a small psychedelic trick by herself and bought it for herself? But she has no impression of this person at all, and even if she picks someone, she won't pick someone who is so troublesome and funny like the one in front of her, right?
Just as she was about to ask her what had helped her, she was suddenly interrupted by Yu Shu's voice.
"Xiaowu, let's go."
Yu Shuhuan passed her and took her back. Obviously, he didn't want her to have any more contact with this person.
Even if she knew something, she would keep her mouth shut forever.
When the man in red walked past him with the "little monster" he called him, Long Huai clearly saw his murderous aura from the eyes he looked at.
Long Huai sneered at him disapprovingly, and when the cold light in his eyes became even more cold, he threw an autumn wave towards Shu Xiaowu, rejoicing.
Even if she couldn't tell the identity of the man in red, she was still not afraid of him!
--
That night, on the outskirts of Linxian Town.
Long Huai, who was completely unable to resist the attack by the man in red who he saw in the daytime, was forced to transform into a dragon and screamed in the sky. In a moment of daze, he sacrificed his tortoise shell. to escape.
Dragging the scarred dragon body, Long Huai had to return to the Dragon Palace.
It seems that her plan to sneak away this time has failed again.
It was all her fault that she was too confident in herself. Who would have thought that she would encounter a demon with such a powerful strength and even recruit a dead hand?
--
Yu Shu looked at a few dragon scales and half a tortoise shell that fell from the sky. As soon as the demonic energy came out, only gray debris remained in the sky.
Looking up at the bright and clear moon, the expression on his face is unpredictable.
East China Sea Dragon?
