Pretending to be a high-cold male god
Chapter 4 Ghost City
Monsters are not trendy species, and a ghost city has not changed for hundreds of years.
There are one shop after another on both sides of the street. Most of the shops maintain the style of the Qing Dynasty and look antique.
Some shops hang a signboard with the word "wine" at the door, use carved wooden windows, and pull a piece of cloth curtain with a blue background and flowers at the door to make the door curtain. When the door curtain is opened, there are eight immortal tables and long stools inside. Shaking the wine bottle on the cabinet by the window, he opened his hazy eyes and asked, "Have a drink?"
More monsters sell all kinds of goods. They rent a small storefront, and then put wooden boards on the window facing the street. The wooden boards are filled with things that Ye Chuanlin can't name.There was a signboard at the entrance of a store that said "Monster Bone Specialty", and the whole store was filled with strangely shaped bones. Ye Chuanlin bet he even saw a dragon's head.
In addition, there is also a drug seller. The counter is full of white porcelain bottles. The boss is a centipede spirit, also known as a multi-eyed monster. A few rows of eyes, if you ask, he will take out a bottle, carefully uncork it for you to inspect the product, "If you fake it, you will be fined ten, and there are all kinds of panacea."
There are also those who sell weapons, monster weapons, and materials. There is a whole street full of everything.
Ye Chuanlin strangely picked up a gauze cloth as thin as a cicada's wings, which was as smooth as water.A sweet voice came from inside, and a beautiful merman was sitting in a floating water bubble and smiled at him: "Shark yarn can be made into clothes that are warm in winter and cool in summer, and can also be used for refining elixir, Auxiliary materials for refining demon weapons, combined with our shark tears, can be made into beautiful ornaments for sweethearts."
Ye Chuanlin was moved by the talk, and just about to open his mouth to buy it, Qiu Xiaotu poked the side of his waist. Qiu Xiaotu leaned closer to Ye Chuanlin's ear and said, "Boss, you didn't bring any money when you went out today."
Ye Chuanlin also lowered his head and quietly asked, "What is the money of the Yaozu?"
Qiu Xiaotu motioned Ye Chuanlin to look at the stall next door. A tall man took out a jar of shiny gems from his sleeve, counted them, paid them to the stall owner, and took a flower from the stall owner to be fostered in the stall. Nine-petaled lotus in a glass jar.He seemed to have noticed Ye Chuanlin's gaze, and quickly turned his head.
After just one glance, Ye Chuanlin sighed in his heart what a pity.The man's face is ordinary and unremarkable, the kind that can't be found at a glance in the crowd.But he has a pair of very beautiful eyes, which are very light brown, and he can see the beautiful patterns in the pupils clearly, which is very aura, and the word "looking" has to describe such eyes.It's just that there is always an indescribable weirdness in pairing such good-looking eyes with such an ordinary appearance.
He didn't feel any discomfort, he watched Ye Chuanlin look at him rudely, and raised the corners of his mouth, showing a simple smile.
Ye Chuanlin became more courageous, and asked, "What did you buy?"
The man showed the glass jar to Ye Chuanlin. A light pink lotus flower was stretching its petals in the water. The petals were extremely thin and the veins were clear.
"This is the lotus mother of Tianshan. It was born on the Tianchi Lake. The flower has nine petals. It is the mother of lotus in the world. It can cure all kinds of poisons and is very precious."
The man's voice is also very nice, deep and gorgeous like the timbre of a cello.Ye Chuanlin is a voice control person, and he feels his ears go limp when he hears a nice voice, wishing he could record him and save it on his mobile phone to listen to every day.
"How much did you buy it for?"
The stall owner was a young man who looked very refreshing and clean. After hearing this, he interjected: "Director Ye, you are still worried about the business of our Pixiu family? Honest management, fair price, 50 bone jade, Director Ye must not Check our water meter."
The Pixiu clan is rich in shrewd businessmen, and is said to be one of the richest races in the entire demon world.Legend has it that Pixiu has no chrysanthemums, can only get in and out of food, only makes money, never loses money, and the wealth is rolling in.
Ye Chuanlin was embarrassed, and when he met an acquaintance, Xiao Qiang quickly put away his foolish tone, tried to be a "normal" Director Ye, and prayed in his heart that he hadn't been too unrestrained just now.
The man on the other side smiled: "It's an honor to meet the director of the N city office. Hello, Director Ye. My name is Gu Junye."
"Hello."
Qiu Xiaotu tugged Xiao Qiang's sleeve lightly in a corner where no one else could see.
Xiao Qiang understood in seconds, and said in a cold official tone: "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving for now. I wish you a happy transaction in the ghost market."
The man seemed to be nodding his head respectfully, but his eyeballs frivolously rolled back and forth on Ye Chuanlin's face, thinking that although this beauty was a little cold, she was really good-looking.
How could Xiao Qiang not understand this man's expression, he would use such frivolous eyes when he met a good-looking boy on the road, and he felt a little annoyed at the moment. , walked away with a paralyzed face.
His pace was a bit fast, and Qiu Xiaotu trotted two steps before catching up with Ye Chuanlin. Qiu Xiaotu was puzzled: He was implying that the boss should leave the acquaintance's stall quickly, why did the boss suddenly get angry?
Xiao Qiang walked a few steps, and finally got away from the annoying man far away, took a long breath, and asked Qiu Xiaotu: "Where is Shi Tiankuo? We agreed to meet in the ghost market, where is he?" Well……"
At this time, Shi Tiankuo was standing on the sixth floor of the clock tower, looking at the brightly lit and bustling ghost market below his feet, rubbing two black iron beads in his hands, wondering what he was thinking.
The clock tower is located at the southernmost end of the ghost city, and is the highest point in the whole ghost city. It has seven floors, with a gorgeous gilt roof on the top, and the corners of the eaves are as high as the wings of a bird. , There are exquisite reliefs on the tower wall.There is a clock on the seventh floor. When the ghost market ends and the first ray of morning sun hits the earth, the clock body will vibrate continuously, making long and heavy sounds one after another.
Someone came down from the seventh floor and saw Shi Tiankuo sitting there, he couldn't help laughing and said: "You are in his position to seek government affairs, you should go to work, Director Ye is probably looking for you already."
The person who came had very obvious characteristics of the monster race, with long blue hair, pupils as transparent as water waves, and a small horn growing on his forehead.
"Shut up, the flood dragon monster who can't even transform itself has no right to criticize me."
The person who came was the dragon spirit that Shi Tiankuo was ordered to "pursue". I don't know why the two got mixed up, but it seemed that they didn't have a good relationship. "Yeah, you can't even beat a dragon monster that can't transform itself well, yet you dare to BB here. Your boss Ye easily rubbed me on the ground."
"Tch." Shi Tiankuo thought to himself, Ye Chuanlin also stumbled yesterday. He fought this dragon for ten years and won countless times. He doesn't know why he lost so badly yesterday.He was teased so badly by the dragon spirit, he hummed, rolled his eyes, and an idea popped up in his mind.
Ye Chuanlin must have been injured yesterday. He and Jiaolong Jing are about the same strength. They are not friends, but at least they have a common enemy—Director Ye.Right now is a good opportunity to take the lead.
He turned his head and patted Jiaolongjing's shoulder affectionately, narrowed his slender eyes, and squeezed out a gloomy smile on his face: "The two of us are being attacked by each other, right now there is a big one, what are you doing?" Don't do it?"
Jiaolongjing narrowed his eyes, and said vigilantly: "Why? I'm a good monster, and I don't do things that hurt the nature and cause and take people's lives."
"You usually do less bad things?"
"Those were just a joke! A prank!" Jiaolongjing insisted, holding his neck.
Shi Tiankuo saw that the monster was in a hurry, and immediately comforted him: "Okay, okay, we don't do things that hurt the world. You also know that I don't get along well with my boss, and you don't deal with it. Let's unite and give He learned a lesson."
Jiaolongjing laughed: "You're fooling me. You think your boss doesn't like you and you plan to drag me into the water? Plan to borrow a knife to kill someone? I'm not so stupid."
When Shi Tiankuo was exposed by him face to face, he was not upset, and said frankly: "It's not really what he wants to do."
"When the first bell of the bell tower rings, the monsters will leave here. When the bell is over, the gate of the ghost city will be closed and will not open again until the first day of the next month. Ye Chuanlin claims to be the manager The latter is always the last one to go, and you, just delay for a while so that he can't catch up. How about it?"
"Half a month is enough for you to make a small report to get him down, right?" Jiaolongjing snorted disdainfully, and did not express any objection, so the matter is settled.
Here Ye Chuanlin has no idea what Shi Tiankuo is plotting, he is completely in a state of desperation now.
It has been nearly ten years since Yaoyaoling took over the ghost market in City N, and Director Ye of the office has also become an old acquaintance in the hearts of many monsters.Except that I didn't enter the role at the beginning, I had to pretend to be an unsmiling, indifferent and self-sufficient person for the rest of the time, and I couldn't even show the slightest interest in those novel gadgets, because in everyone's eyes, Ye The director is familiar with the resurrection grass that can bring back the dead, the human skin that can disguise the face, the eternally clean fire raccoon cloth made of fire mouse hair, the spider silk spit out by mountain spiders that can stop bleeding, etc., are all commonplace. !
Xiao Qiang looked at all kinds of strange goods, wishing he could touch each of them, and buy the good-looking ones. According to Qiu Xiaotu's reliable information, Director Ye is very rich, but he didn't bring it with him, but, Can credit ah!
What's the fastest way to kill a cat?It is to make its curiosity unsatisfied, and it can only look at it, but not touch it with its paws, and scratch its heart and lungs.
Qiu Xiaotu looked at the boss sympathetically, but being the most reliable secretary in the office, he still had to remind the boss: "Boss, we are here to maintain order, so don't be distracted."
Ye Chuanlin looked around, there were monsters like weaving, and every monster had a happy smile on his face.Although the monsters crowded the monsters and could bump into people's shoulders if they weren't paying attention, everyone was very kind and took a step back, even making way for the young monsters, for fear that they would be squeezed into these delicate little monsters.
The name of the ghost market is the market, but in fact it is similar to a festival. On these two days of each month, monsters can get together and talk freely, without hiding their true faces or following the rules and regulations of human society. Even small monsters can I bought a lot of delicious food happily, and stooped and slipped away from other people's windows with a smile.
Just as Ye Chuanlin wanted to express his appreciation for the high quality of the monsters, trouble came to him.
The person who came was a young banshee, her face was pale, and she sobbed, "Director Ye, my son is missing! Maybe he got lost, please help find him!"
There are one shop after another on both sides of the street. Most of the shops maintain the style of the Qing Dynasty and look antique.
Some shops hang a signboard with the word "wine" at the door, use carved wooden windows, and pull a piece of cloth curtain with a blue background and flowers at the door to make the door curtain.
