When Xie Ci and Jiuyi arrived at Buluo City, the sun was almost setting.

The sand in the desert is like snow, the moon in Yanshan Mountain is like a hook, and the majestic city is like a giant beast entrenched in the depths of the desert.

Mobei Buluo City is a city independently ruled by the Mobei Ye clan, which is neither under the jurisdiction of the human court, nor bound by the rules of the cultivation world.This time, the Cyclamen League, held every ten years, will be held in Buluo City.Since it was during the grand event, the inspections for entering the city were more stringent than usual, and the crowds waiting to enter the city lined up in front of the majestic and towering city gates.

At the gate of the city, Jiu Yi was not in such a hurry to enter the city. He half leaned against Xie Ci, squinted his eyes and dozed off.They joined the team entering the city with the flow of people, and when it was their turn, the night had already shrouded, and hundreds of ever-burning lamps beside the city wall were lit up one by one, radiant and bright as day.

"Please show your name card." The guard said.

Xie Ci took out a bronzing invitation card from his Qiankun bag and handed it over. The guard took a look, his expression immediately changed, and he said respectfully: "It turns out that Master Rong is coming. If you don't fall into the city, you will be far away to welcome you. Master Xian Please follow me, the villain will take you to the City Lord's Mansion."

"No need," Xie Ci said with a smile, "I'm sorry for the trouble of City Master Lao Ye, Rong wants to take a stroll in the city first, and then he can go there by himself later."

The guard leaned over and stepped aside, saying, "The Immortal caresses his head, and his hair grows long. Master Rong Xian, please come in."

Entering the city gate, the bustling crowd suddenly surrounded them, and the two were pushed involuntarily.

When Xie Ci and Jiuyi were no longer in sight, the guard turned his head and said to a companion, "Quickly report to the city lord that the target has entered the city."

The companion nodded yes, turned around and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

***

Crowded with hundreds of strangers, Xie Ci almost couldn't stand still, he quickly grabbed Jiu Yi's wrist, and the two of them were not dispersed by the crowd.

Walking out of the heavy shadow of the city gate, the field of vision suddenly becomes clear, and a large area of ​​colorful and bizarre scenes comes into view.

In front of them was a long street crowded with people. It was so long that it couldn't be seen at the end. They could only see a golden tower towering into the sky in the distance, which was extremely dazzling even in the dark night.If Xie Ci's guess is correct, then it should be the place where the Cyclamen League will be held, the Buddha Pagoda, the landmark building in the city of Buluo.

Both sides of the street are occupied by a variety of shops and vendors. Countless long-burning lights are floating in the air, illuminating the eyes of passers-by on the street; Everyone's complexion was touched; there were occasional snow-white flying horses flying over the head with a fragrant car, and the sound of crisp bells was drowned in the exclamation of outsiders.

The city of never falling is indeed worthy of its pride of "white jade capital in the sky, twelve floors and five cities".

It was the first time for Jiuyi to come to such a bustling and unrealistic city, and he looked around dizzily, thinking that one pair of eyes was not enough, and wished he could make a few more pairs.If it wasn't for Xie Ci's pull, he would have already run away from sight.

Xie Ci dragged a 1.8-meter man through the crowd, sweating profusely from exhaustion, and immediately regretted why he didn't just follow the guards directly to the city lord's mansion, but seeing Jiuyi's interest With his eyes shining brightly, he could only sigh bitterly.

"Aren't you always yelling that you're tired and hungry?" Xie Ci helped Jiuyi pay, and pulled him back from the mask stall, "Let's go eat first?"

Jiuyi put on the ferocious Kunlun slave mask, blinked his eyes under the mask, and urged, "By the way, go quickly."

It was also the first time Xie Ci came to the city, so he had to ask the merchants and passers-by to inquire. Under the guidance, the two found what was said to be the most famous five-star restaurant in the city.Jiuyi chose an elegant seat facing the street, took the menu and ordered a bunch of dishes with a crackling sound.

"Another roasted whole lamb, it's almost done." Jiuyi put down the menu and folded his hands in satisfaction.

The waiter who remembers the dishes is probably also honest, and said with a smile: "Young master, the portions of our dishes are quite sufficient. If you ordered so much, you two will definitely not be able to finish it."

Jiuyi raised his eyebrows, Xie Ci hurriedly stuffed a small ingot of broken silver into Xiaoshoushou, "That's all, let's have a pot of the best wine here, and the food will be served sooner."

Xiaoer immediately stopped persuading, and left with a happy smile, holding a tip and leaving.

Jiuyi took off his mask, rested his chin on his hands and looked at the long street scenery outside the window, the light color of his eyes fluctuated with the changing scenery.Xie Ci took off his bamboo hat and dusty robe, and heaved a sigh of relief.Over the past ten years of getting along, the two have long been accustomed to such a silent relationship with each other, and the silence in the private room was not broken until the steaming dishes were served one after another.

Once he started to eat, Jiuyi was completely different from the quiet and beautiful person on the surface of the weekdays. He rolled up his sleeves and his cheeks were bulging.

As a cultivator who has long been fasting, Xie Ci has long lost his original interest in appetite, so he only ate a few mouthfuls of food and drank a few mouthfuls of wine, and put down his chopsticks after the roasted whole lamb was served, as usual Serve the ancestors of Jiuyi without complaint.

Xie Ci's swordsmanship is excellent, and his skill in slicing mutton is also quite good. Yubai's slender fingers held the knife and swiped a few times, and slices of mutton that were as thin as paper and sizzling oil were neatly stacked on the porcelain. In the small white plate, sprinkle some cumin spices, Jiuyi's eyes narrowed after eating.

"The food here is pretty good," Jiuyi sipped his wine and burped in satisfaction, "I'll come back tomorrow..."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly shot out of the window sharply, and his brows frowned.

Xie Ci put down the handkerchief to wipe his hands and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiuyi frowned and glanced out the window, slowly said: "It seems that someone is staring at us."

Xie Ci hurriedly looked out the window, carefully walking back and forth, but saw nothing.

The intuition of animals is much more sensitive than that of humans. Xie Ci did not suspect him, and his eyebrows frowned unconsciously, "Did you see the face?"

"No," Jiuyi withdrew his gaze and shook his head, "Just for a moment, when I looked out, I didn't see anything, and now I don't see anything either."

"Maybe someone was attracted by my appearance and was stunned by accident." Jiuyi said nonchalantly as he drank the wine in his glass.

The thanks were a little speechless, but they didn't dare to be careless.Recently, he has dreamed of Luo Yunzhou more and more frequently, and he always feels that it is not a good omen. He has not heard from him for so many years, and Xie Ci always has a faint premonition in his heart.

Perhaps this is the telepathy that the protagonist will appear on the stage?

Mobei's shochu is very strong, Jiuyi's alcohol capacity is mediocre but greedy, Xie Ci fell into his thoughts and didn't pay attention, he drank the whole pot of wine in a blink of an eye, lying on the table with bright red cheeks, holding the jug closed Murmured, refusing to let go.

It took a lot of effort for Xie Ci to take the jug out of his arms, and when he walked out of the restaurant with Jiuyi on his back, the night was dark and it was approaching Zishi, but the bustle of Buluocheng Street not only did not decrease a bit, it seemed On the contrary, it became more noisy.

People who drank alcohol were much heavier than usual, Xie Ci lifted the heavy ancestors up, avoided the crowds, and walked slowly along the street.

"Where are we going?" Jiuyi regained consciousness after being blown by the cold wind outside, and asked vaguely with his eyes half-closed, his hot breath sprinkled on Xie Ci's neck.

Xie Ci turned his neck and said: "Find an inn to stay overnight, and then go to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow morning to meet the senior brother and the others."

"Then, come here to eat tomorrow..."

"Okay," Xie Ci said with a smile, "You really don't care about money, a meal here is as much as our reward for catching a demon."

"Tsk, it's yours anyway..." Jiuyi rubbed against each other, changed to a comfortable position, lay down and stopped moving, his breathing quickly became long and deep.

The Kunlun slave mask he was holding with one hand swayed in front of Xie Ci's chest. When Xie Ci was carrying him to avoid a group of children running wildly, the mask fell to the ground with a "click".

Xie Ci clicked his head with a headache, and was thinking about how to pick up the mask when a hand suddenly appeared in his vision.

The hand was wrapped in a black leather glove, and the mask was picked up in long fingers.

Xie Ci put a polite smile on his face and said, "Thank you."

He raised his head to look at the man's face, only to see that his whole body was wrapped in a black robe, with a black mask on his face, most of which was covered under the black hood, only the chin covered by the mask was exposed, bare Judging by his stature, he was taller than him.There are many people in Buluo City who are dressed in strange clothes, and the other party's death costume is not eye-catching.

The man did not speak, held the mask in his hand, and did not move for a moment.

Xie Ci guessed that he didn't know how to return the mask because of his appearance, so he lifted Jiuyi up again, stretched out a hand through Jiuyi's knee, and said, "Please excuse me." .”

The man seemed to be stunned for a while, and he didn't move for a long time. Xie Ci's hands were a little sore, and he finally handed out the mask flatly.

The mask was still some distance away from Xie Ci's hand, and he didn't know if this person was doing it on purpose or what, Xie Ci suddenly felt a little inexplicably depressed, so he had to reach out and take the mask with all his strength.Jiuyi was so knocked that he almost slipped off, grunted in his sleep, and Xie Ci hurriedly pushed him back with his elbow.

This black-robed man was weird, Xie Ci got the mask and didn't want to talk to him, so he walked around him after thanking him.After thanking him, I saw the man in black standing still in place from the corner of his eyes. Suspicion suddenly arose in his heart. When he turned his head to look again, the place was empty, and there was no one there.

The increasingly obvious premonition in his heart surged up again. In the bustling street, there was a sudden chill on his body.

When entering the inn, Xie Ci keenly sensed that someone was staring at them, he suddenly turned his head, but found nothing.

Twice, no accident.

"Guest officer, do you want to stay at the hotel?" The waiter greeted him with a smile on his face.

"One upper room," said Xie Ci, "it's quieter."

[Drip, remind the host, the protagonist's blackening value +1, the current blackening value: 2. 】

As soon as he finished speaking, a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind.

Xie Ci stopped abruptly and turned around to look.

There are only people coming and going on the streets as bright as day, just like anywhere else.

But Xie Ci knew that Luo Yunzhou was somewhere there, looking at him now.

His breathing suddenly became rapid.

The author has something to say:

Big Karma, wow!

I'm going to start spreading dog blood tomorrow, and I'm a little excited when I think about it!
