Chapter 271

The morning light is dim.

On the streets of the small town of Scarborough, some people have appeared here and there.

Most of them came out to buy something early to make a living.Of course, there are also flower picking merchants who spend the whole night in a romantic relationship and return home at dawn.

"It's already far away from that man, everyone stop."

Xia Mu looked at a group of monsters around him and said.

The voodoo master proposed to end the battle, and Inugami and Xia Mu had already agreed, so they left the beach where the voodoo master was.

At this time, although he had already left the beach, he hadn't walked to the main street of Scarborough Town, but was on a relatively remote path.

In the early morning, the genius had just dawned. At this time, no one had come to such a remote place.It happened to be here, trying to find a way to help Gu catch the bird and get rid of the bugs on her body.

End the fight, just don't keep fighting.The sorcerer did not take back the bugs on Guhuo Niao and Xia Mu.

"It's so itchy..."

Xia Mu suddenly twisted his body a few times and said in pain.

Although the bugs on Xia Mu's body had no spiritual power, they were no different from ordinary bugs, but a bunch of ordinary bugs on his body was unbearable.

Now that it has become safer, the feeling of those bugs crawling and flying around is very obvious.

"Is it a bug?"

Jiaotu saw several bugs flying out of Xia Mu's collar, and some bugs were also crawling on Xia Mu's exposed forearm.

So I immediately guessed that it was the Gu master who put bugs on Xia Mu's body.

"Ah."

Xia Mu replied.

Jiaotu walked up to Xia Mu, showing a sweet smile: "Leave it to me!"

After Jiaotu finished speaking, he opened his mouth slightly and spit out a huge bubble.

The body of Jiaotu is a small blue fish!

Spitting bubbles is a basic skill mastered from birth.

"Xia Mu, please walk through the bubble..."

Jiaotu looked at Xia Mu and said softly.

It was a light blue bubble, which looked very big, and it was illuminated by the sun, and it felt like it would explode at any moment.But this is impossible, because Jiaotu injected some spiritual power into Pao Pao to maintain the resilience of Pao Pao.

Xia Mu glanced at Jiaotu.

A girl in a blue kimono stands in the morning sunlight with a suitable smile on her face.

It's really...beautiful...

"Hey! If you are disobedient, I won't help you."

Jiaotu glared at Xia Mu and said to him.

Xia Mu walked through the bubble, and when Xia Mu walked out, Xia Mu felt extremely comfortable.

The feeling of bugs crawling... is gone!

Behind Xia Mu, there was a huge light blue bubble floating in mid-air. Many small bugs were flying inside the bubble, and at the bottom of the bubble, many bugs were piled up together, forming a black mass.

"Thank you... Thank you...Jiaotu!"

Xia Mu looked at the worms in the huge bubble, bowed slightly to Jiaotu, and said sincerely.

The huge bubbles carried the bugs and flew towards the air non-stop, flying higher and higher, drifting farther and farther.

Two blushes appeared on Jiaotu's face unknowingly: "No...it's nothing!"

The bubble filled with bugs quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

There are long white clouds in the sky, and there is a gentle breeze in the sky.

"By the way, there are also aunts..."

Xia Mu patted his head, since he went to care about the scenery just now...

"Jiaotu, please spit out another bubble, can you?"

Xia Mu looked at Jiaotu and said to her.

"what?"

Jiaotu looked at Xia Mu with a little doubt on his face, because Xia Jiaotu didn't know that Guhuo Niao also had bugs on his body.

Xia Mu's words made Jiaotu think... Xia Mu might just want to see himself spit bubbles...

"She also has worms on her body. When she was saving me, those worms crawled from me to her."

Xia Mu explained.

"Oh……"

Jiaotu spits out a huge light blue bubble again. Under the sunlight, the light blue color of the bubble flows slowly, looking leisurely and beautiful.

"Gu Huo Niao, you are the same as I was just now, walk through the bubble."

Xia Mu looked at Gu Huo Niao and said to her.

Gu Huo Niao did so, but the bubble was still the same as before, empty inside...

"It seems... those bugs are different from yours..."

Jiaotu bit his lip and said softly.

Just now when Guhuo Niao passed by the bubble that he had injected spiritual power into, Jiaotu felt that there were countless small things that tore open tiny gaps in his spiritual power.Then from those tiny gaps, he broke through his own bubble.

"By the way, the spiritual power of the insects on her body has not been dispelled..."

Xia Mu quickly put his hand on the bubble that Jiaotu spit out.

Just put it lightly.

Xia Mu used the exorcism in such a posture: "Gu Huo Niao, please repeat what you did just now."

Guhuo Bird nodded, and passed through the bubble again. When Guhuo Bird's body entered the huge bubble, some energy released from Xia Mu's hand touched the bugs.

This is what Xia Mu discovered when he dispelled the spiritual power of the bugs on his body.

The contact is not the contact between oneself and the object of the exorcism.

It's the contact between the slowly flowing gas, or energy, in one's own body and the exorcised object.

Xia Mu released those energies into the bubbles spit out by Jiaotu, and then let the guhuo bird pass through the bubbles. During this process, the exorcism of those insects had been completed.

"Ah, so comfortable..."

Gu Huo Niao, who had just passed by Bubble, couldn't help but let out a soft cry.

Many times, we are unaware of the comfort that is normal, or healthy.

But when the disease is recovering, it can be clearly felt.

This is exactly what happened to Gu Huo Niao at the moment.

The unbearable feeling of insects crawling on the body, and the itching of the skin, suddenly disappeared.This feeling should be very cool.

"Thank you, but it's time to say goodbye!"

Gu Huoniao stood upright in front of Xia Mu, and said slowly.

The task of Guhuo Niao and Inughen is to protect Xia Mu. At this time, Xia Mu is already safe, so there is no need for the two of them to continue walking with them.

With humans, there is always some danger.

Gu Huo Niao and Inugami prefer two people, walking quietly together.

……

Time flies by.

The 45-day trading period at the Scarborough Town Fair is coming to an end.

And the season has changed from early summer to real summer.

The scorching sun and the scorching sound of cicadas made people walk on places with shadows on the ground.

"Selling watermelons... sweet and big watermelons..."

Chen Beibei was walking with his shikigami in the market in Scarborough Town when he suddenly heard an old man selling watermelons.

"Master, watermelon..."

Yingcao tugged at Chen Beibei's sleeve, and looked at Chen Beibei eagerly.

"Want to eat?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Ok!"

Yingcao nodded.

"Then let's go buy it."

Chen Beibei led his shikigami and walked towards the old man selling watermelons.

The old man has snow-white hair and a long beard, and his body is like a pine tree. Although he looks dry and old, he has a strong vitality.

"Want to buy watermelon?"

The old man glanced at Chen Beibei, and then asked him.

"Ah."

Chen Beibei nodded and replied.

The old man's eyes swept around the shikigami beside Chen Beibei, and then smiled slightly.

The old man opened his palm, and there was a seed lying in the palm, probably a watermelon seed.

"Where's the watermelon? I want watermelon..."

Yingcao shouted.

There is only a wooden barrel beside the old man, and there is nothing else. As for the watermelon, there is no one at all.Yingcao shouted unwillingly because she saw through this point.

"Little girl, don't worry, don't you want watermelon? It will be there soon..."

The old man squatted down, and buried the seeds in his hands in the soil under his feet.

Because there were quite a lot of people in Chen Beibei's group, when they stood at the old man's place, they gave people the feeling that they were watching some wonderful event.

Such a scene attracted some passing idlers.

"Huh? Is it really a watermelon seller? You can't be a fool, since you didn't even bring watermelon..."

Said a new onlooker.

"Isn't it a liar? Do you want someone to give you the money first, and then run away with the money?"

Someone else echoed.

The old man didn't pay attention to what the onlookers said, but slowly took a ladle of water from the wooden bucket beside him.

Then sprinkle it on the soil where the watermelon seeds were planted before.

"germination!"

When the old man was sprinkling water, he read these two words softly in his mouth.

"Sprout? What do you want to do? This old man is not a lunatic, is he..."

The onlookers said with a smile.

Even though he said so, he didn't mean to leave at all, probably because he wanted to see what kind of things this lunatic would do.

"Boom~"

There was an extremely thin sound, the sound of plants digging through the soil.

Where the watermelon seeds were buried before, at this time, something has grown out.

It is a tender and small plant - watermelon vine!

"Look, look! It seems that something really grew out!"

The onlookers screamed.

"It's a watermelon vine..."

Another onlooker replied that most farmers knew things like watermelon vines, and even if he didn't mention them, everyone would recognize them.

At this time, the crowd of onlookers started to have a little commotion, everyone was talking carefully about the old man and the watermelon vine growing in front of him.

"Is it magic?"

One person said so.

"Maybe, but it's the first time I've seen such magic. It seems very interesting..."

replied another.

The old man scooped up a ladle of water from the barrel again, and poured the water on the young watermelon vines that had just grown.

"Grow up... grow up quickly..."

The tender watermelon vines grew rapidly, and finally turned into a mature watermelon vine.

The vines and leaves are dark green and look healthy.

The onlookers who were standing relatively close at first all backed away when the watermelon vine grew, as if they were afraid that they would block the growth of the watermelon vine.

The old man looked at those people and smiled slightly: "Blossom... hurry up..."

Small pale yellow flowers grow on the watermelon vine.

That's a watermelon flower.

It looks just ordinary, and not to mention beautiful flowers.

But watermelons are the fruit of such flowers!

"It's really blooming..."

The onlookers whispered.

Those people surrounding the old man are no longer yelling.

Even if it is discussion, it is whispered.

"It's amazing!"

One exclaimed in a low voice.

The old man poured the last bit of water in the barrel onto the flowering watermelon vines.

Then read softly.

"Melons, quick melons!"

The small yellow flowers grow quickly, wither, and wither, and then a small watermelon grows where the flowers wither.

"Wow, there are really watermelons!"

Yingcao looked at the growing watermelon and exclaimed in surprise.

While Yingcao was talking, the watermelon had grown a lot, almost to the size of a mature one.

The old man leaned down and patted the watermelon with his hands. During the time the old man was patting the watermelon, the watermelon grew obviously again.It already looks like a big, round watermelon.

"Clap clap clap..."

The palm of the hand slapped the watermelon, making a crisp sound, and the old man picked the watermelon off with a smile: "It's ripe!"

The old man handed the watermelon to Yingcao, and Yingcao followed it with both hands, sinking down: "It's so heavy..."

"Little girl, ten catties, give me two yuan and five!"

The old man looked at Yingcao and said lightly.

Chen Beibei handed the money to the old man. Originally, he thought that the watermelon would be quite expensive after the old man had done so much, but he didn't expect it to be so cheap.

Chen Beibei gave the money and left with the shikigami.

The old man stared at the back of Chen Beibei and the others as they left, and stood there blankly for a while.

"I also want!"

"I also want!"

"Please sell me a watermelon!"

The onlookers started rushing to buy watermelons from the old man. The old man turned his gaze away and began to cast a spell on the watermelon vine. The small yellow flowers that grew up withered one by one, and then watermelons grew out.

"Don't worry, everyone has it."

said the old man.

"Here, this is yours."

said the old man.

"Yes, two dollars and a half!"

the old man said
……

Yingcao held the watermelon in her arms and wanted to eat it all the time, but she didn't have a knife.

Poor...

"Master, hurry up and find a place to buy a knife to cut watermelon."

Yingcao begged.

"Yingcao, if you want to eat watermelon, we can just find a place where no one is around."

Snow Maiden replied.

We all came under the camphor tree growing by the sea. The camphor tree can block the sun and make us feel more comfortable.And there's sea breeze...

"Ice and snow are coming!"

In Xuenv's hand, a crystal clear ice blade appeared out of nowhere, and the ice blade was still breathing cold.

"Yingcao, just use one."

"Ah."

Yingcao put the watermelon in her bosom on the ground, and the ice knife cut the watermelon open, the bright red flesh, the bright red watermelon juice... It also had the effect of being chilled by the cold air of the ice knife...

"Ah, delicious~"

 The price of the watermelon at [-] yuan is because I remembered that my family used to grow watermelons, and in the summer, we pulled a cart to sell watermelons. At that time, the price we sold was [-] cents a catty, and a big watermelon of [-] catties was Two yuan and five... (ps: Our watermelon seeds are soaked in sugar water for a long time before planting, so they are super sweet and delicious~)
