After Zhou You left Yuhang Town with Linger and his party, the journey went smoothly, and within a few days, they arrived at Suzhou City, a big city in the south of the Yangtze River.

After entering the city, as far as I can see, there are stalls, monkeys, and opera singers... the streets in the city are crowded with people, and it is very lively, which makes Linger, who is coming to this big city for the first time, full of joy Novelty, take a few maids who are also very happy to look here and there...

"It's been a long time since I've been to such a lively city. The land of the Central Plains is really prosperous," even the grandma who had lived in seclusion on Xianling Island for ten years with Ling'er couldn't help feeling a little emotional when she saw the bustling market in front of her. .

Seeing Linger's happy look, Zhou You couldn't help but smiled and said: "Since Linger likes this place so much, let's stay here for a few days. I can also give advice on Linger's cultivation so that she can have her own as soon as possible." power of protection."

"Alright, let's buy some things for the road by the way," the grandma who nodded and responded, seeing Linger chatting and laughing with a few maids while shopping and looking at things, she also showed a kind smile on her face: "It's rare that Linger Being able to be so happy...but, when I return to Nanzhao Kingdom, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have such a peaceful day."

"Everything is up to me. As a master, I will naturally not allow anyone to bully my apprentice, so don't worry, grandma," Zhou Youdan said casually with a smile.

After some wandering, I found an inn with a good environment to stay in. After lunch, Zhou You called Linger to the guest room to check her cultivation progress and found that she was worthy of being a descendant of Nuwa, she was indeed a talent Extraordinary talent, after just a short period of practice, the blood power in the body has been gradually stimulated.

Therefore, Zhou You then began to teach Ling'er how to control and use the blood power in his body, and transform it into his own strength.

Under Zhou You's careful teaching, Ling'er also studied very seriously. Unconsciously, it was getting late and the night was dark. After finishing her practice, she tried to cast some spells taught by her grandmother, and found that those spells were not only easier to cast, but also powerful. It seemed to be bigger too, Linger couldn't help being very pleasantly surprised.

But immediately following the sound of 'cuckoo', Ling'er covered his stomach and looked at Zhou You pitifully: "Brother Zhou, Ling'er is hungry!"

"Hehe, it's because you practiced so hard that you forgot the time," Zhou Youlian said with a smile, "It's already very late at this time, and the stove in the inn is probably cold. So, let's go out and eat, see See if there are roadside stalls."

"Street stall? What is a roadside stall? Do you do business on the side of the road? Sell food?" Linger, who was talking curiously, left the room with Zhou You happily.

The door of another guest room next to her was opened, and the grandma, who watched the two of them leave, couldn't help smiling and nodding and murmured: "It seems that this Mr. Zhou really dotes on Ling'er. He treats Ling'er so well. Carefully, could it be, what does he have to do with the Witch Queen?"

On the dark street, although it was quite late and there were hardly any pedestrians on the street, Zhouyou and Linger found a roadside stall selling food after turning two streets. There were wontons and steamed buns. The rest of the tour was to round up the old couple's unsold wonton buns, and even urged Ling'er to eat them quickly.

"Brother Zhou, do you order so much? We can't eat it, right?" Looking at the big bowls of wontons and steamed buns on the table, Ling'er couldn't help but ask.

Zhou You smiled and said, "Hurry up and eat! Otherwise, if you wait for a while, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat."

"I don't have anything to eat? Could it be that these food will disappear out of thin air?" Ling'er was a little puzzled, but still picked up a bun and ate it under Zhou You's urging.

But Ling'er hadn't finished eating a steamed stuffed bun, suddenly an inconspicuous little figure ran out from the corner next to it, rushed straight to the table where Zhou You and Ling'er were sitting, grabbed the steamed stuffed bun in the cage in front of Ling'er and Started to eat, Ling'er was a little stunned, even Zhou You, who had just eaten two mouthfuls of wontons, put down his spoon and squinted at the little boy.

After waiting until the little boy had the courage to pick up the bag and gorge it aside, Linger, who had reacted, couldn't help but look at the little boy with beautiful eyes, and then said to Zhou You: "Brother Zhou, this little boy seems to be a bit Something is wrong!"

"See it?" Zhou Youdan looked at Ling'er and asked with a smile, while Ling'er frowned slightly and said, "It seems to be a demon-eating Gu. Grandma told me that it is a very special kind of Gu. He sucks people's energy. Seeing that he can eat so much, there is probably a demon-eating gu in his body. However, I don't know exactly what the demon-eating gu is for. I have to ask my grandma to find out."

"Oh? Then you have a way to help this little guy out of the demon-eating Gu? Otherwise, if he eats like this, his parents may not be able to support him. Seeing his clothes, he is also a child of ordinary background, Otherwise, you won't be so hungry at night to find something to eat," Zhou You raised his eyebrows.

Ling'er, who nodded lightly, was busy casting spells with both hands. The little boy who was still munching on the buns with his fingertips, suddenly shot into the little boy's body with a little light, and the trembling little boy suddenly vomited After spitting it out of the mouth, a naked Gu worm that was only half the size of a palm, with a big head and a big mouth, and four short legs crawled out.

"Is this the demon-eating Gu?" When Zhou You got up curiously and walked over to check, he also hurriedly stepped forward to help the little boy's Ling'er, and he also hurriedly took action to easily control and subdue the demon-eating Gu.

When the little boy returned to normal, clutching his bloated stomach, he apologized to Zhou You and Ling'er in embarrassment, and then left in a hurry, the two returned to the table and continued to eat.

However, Ling'er didn't eat much of the leftover wontons and buns, and most of them were eaten by Zhou You, so that after Zhou You finished eating, Ling'er couldn't help but subconsciously look at his stomach: "Brother Zhou, it's hard Could it be that you also have a demon-eating Gu in your body?"

"Hehe... Maybe I'm the demon-eating Gu!" Zhou You, who was talking with a smile, couldn't help laughing when he saw Linger's astonished expression, "I mean, a person who cultivates has reached a certain level. The food contained in the food contains too little energy, so it is naturally quick and easy to digest, even if you eat a lot, you will not be full. Moreover, if you order everything, wouldn’t it be a waste if you don’t eat it?”

"Oh, Linger understands." After getting up and leaving, she turned her head to look at the old couple who had packed up their things and was about to leave. Linger suddenly smiled with beautiful eyes twinkling: "Brother Zhou is looking at the old grandpa and grandma It’s too hard to sell wonton buns at this late hour, so I ordered them all, right?”

Zhou You said noncommittally: "Even in a prosperous place like Jiangnan, the life of the people at the bottom is still not easy. That old couple, at such an old age, worked hard to set up a stall at night, no matter whether they have no children to take care of them, or want to It is not easy to lighten some burdens for the family. In fact, in this world, many people only ask for food and clothing."

"Well, Brother Zhou, when Ling'er succeeds in cultivation and has the ability in the future, he will definitely help more people. When I return to Nanzhao Kingdom, I will also let the people of Nanzhao Kingdom have food and clothing. "Ling'er nodded thoughtfully, and then said with shining eyes.

Hearing Ling'er's words, Zhou You couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "The descendants of Nuwa are all so kind-hearted and have such great love for the world? But such great love is destined to be sacrificed. Yes. Fate... If Linger leaves this world with me in the future, will this so-called fate still exist? Is it really unchangeable?"
