Chapter 107
However, the half-demons have already cheered: "That's amazing! He is a sword master and Taoist companion!"
"Elder Meng, is the head office satisfied with us?"
"Elder Meng, does Master Qian have any new instructions? Are you recruiting new staff this year?"
Most of these half-monsters are herbivores, small omnivores, and there are no wild beasts like jackals, tigers, and leopards. After transforming, they are all in the form of children, retaining the characteristics of monsters such as animal ears and tails.Meng Xueli thought, it's not easy for them to be exploited by profiteers, but they still love their jobs and work hard.
Meng Xueli opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Renren Qian said that he is very satisfied with everyone, and he is very grateful to you."
Cheers and applause sounded again, and the atmosphere in the dense forest and deep valley was warm.Meng Xueli felt a little embarrassed.
Bi You patted his wings and signaled the half-demons to be quiet: "This time, Elder Meng and his eldest disciple came to the demon world. We secretly acted on the orders of Zhenren Qian to protect and assist them to reach Fengyue City and participate in the Ten Thousand Demons Conference. Don't let it leak. Rumors! If this matter is done well, there will be extra rewards at the end of the year. Do you understand?"
The half-demons immediately agreed: "Understood!"
Ruan Hui: "Remember the task I assigned just now, and pay attention to safety. Come on, repeat the training again."
All the demons said in unison: "There is nothing impossible in 'Hengtong Juyuan'!"
Meng Xueli and Ji Xiao looked at each other with identical expressions, and Ji Xiao said via voice transmission: "Junior Brother Qian is indeed very good at management..."
Meng Xueli tried hard to choose words: "Very thoughtful."
Bi You nodded in satisfaction, imitating Qian Yuzhi's demeanor and said: "Use your claws and wings to create a miracle. The meeting ends."
The half-monsters scattered like birds and beasts, tacitly separated into the deep forest, and disappeared in an instant, leaving only the little civet cat who had received the signal just now.
The little civet cat raised its two front paws, respectfully bowed to Meng Xueli and Ji Xiao, and then transformed into a boy with cat ears to show its respect for Changchun Peak's master and apprentice.
Ruan Hui introduced: "This is Chu Hua. He is much more familiar with both sides of the Baihe River than Bi You and I."
The demon world has a vast territory and complex terrain, and the forces of the major demons change rapidly. Although Bi You and Ruan Hui have been running business all the year round, they dare not say that they know the changes in various places like the back of their hands.So in different locations, there are different guys to respond.
Meng Xueli and Ji Xiao said hello to Chu Hua: "I'm sorry."
"Don't dare to do it." Seeing the friendly attitude of the two, Chu Hua relaxed a little, and walked ahead to lead the way.
The talkative kingfisher is not used to the silence, and while dancing, he introduced: "After leaving this dense forest and walking to the place where we can hear the sound of water, we will enter the territory of King Baihe. Baili is the territory of King Baihe.
"Baihe River has huge waves and dangerous waterways. The bottom of the river is the King's Crystal Palace, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals will patrol closely. We will go by land and pass through the bustling Baihe City, and sell some goods by the way."
Meng Xueli asked: "How much is the current age of the Baihe Territory?"
Bi You was startled, and looked at Chu Hua: "I don't know about that."
Chu Hua was also taken aback, thinking that Elder Meng knew a lot about the demon world, and answered truthfully: "The Shui tribe in the river pays [-] low-grade spirit beads, and the monsters in the city give [-] low-grade spirit beads."
Meng Xueli frowned slightly: "Can you make it all?"
Chu Hua said: "One-tenth of the little monsters are not paid, so they will work to pay off the debt and build a new palace for King Baihe."
The rules of the demon world have always been like this.In the well-developed demon king's territory, the little monster is driven by the big monster and pays tribute to the big monster, and the big monster is responsible for protecting the little monster from being swallowed by other monsters.
Meng Xueli said to Ji Xiao through voice transmission: "Actually, I have never understood the joy of living in a palace. When King Baihe is rich, he will build a palace. When King Lingshan becomes king, the first thing he has to do is to build a palace. I don't think it is better. Our parent is Chunfeng."
Ji Xiao smiled: "Do you recognize the demon king here?"
Meng Xueli said: "We know each other. King Baihe is a member of the Shui tribe, and he has the strongest monster power in the water. He can mobilize the water of Baihe River and raise a water curtain soaring to the sky. Don't let the monsters come in, and she doesn't want to attack other places. Baihe City is perennial There is no war, and the development is not bad. She is not cruel and violent, nor is she tolerant and gentle. If you have to evaluate, you should say that she is a qualified king."
The Taoist couples chatted quietly, the atmosphere was intimacy, and suddenly Ruan Hui said: "I heard that King Baihe is the most beautiful banshee in the demon world."
Chu Hua scratched the cat's ears: "Well, according to their aquatic aesthetics, it is indeed so." Even if there are monsters who disagree, they dare not say so in the Baihe territory.
Ji Xiao restrained her smile, and asked Meng Xueli via voice transmission, "Really?"
Meng Xueli tried hard to recall: "I don't know if it's beautiful or not. White is true white. The whole body is whiter than my mink fur. It's so white that it reflects light and is dazzling."
Ji Xiao asked lightly: "Have you seen the whole body?"
Meng Xueli nodded: "I've seen it a few times. When I first became the King of the Snow Mountain, Que Xianming proposed to form an alliance with Baihe. Every time we came to the Crystal Palace to discuss matters, we caught up with her taking a bath. She would chat with us while taking a bath." Every time she takes a bath, it's like fighting a war, and she needs a group of little demons to serve her..."
Meng Xueli spoke frankly, but Ji Xiao was not happy to hear it: "So three years have passed, do you still remember clearly?"
Meng Diao was agitated, and immediately reacted, stretched out his hand from under the wide sleeve, hooked Jixiao's little finger in the sleeve, and flattered him, saying: "This is all in the past, I am a human being now, and I don't want to watch other monsters take a bath. Sword Master is broad-minded and tolerant of the world, so you won't bother with me about small things in the past, right?"
Ji Xiao pulled out her finger, touched the back of his neck, and smiled to indicate that it was okay.
Meng Xueli was relieved.
It was only later that he realized that he was relieved too early.
The group of people and the half-monster chatted and walked through the dense forest. The rabbit's ears were clear, the kingfisher's eyes were clear, the civet cat was familiar with the terrain, and no other monsters were encountered.
Bi You didn't care much about the aesthetics of the Shui tribe, so he asked Chu Hua, "Do you know when King Baihe will leave for Fengyue City?"
When the big demon king travels, he must be very pompous and have many followers.The subordinate demons will prepare guards of honor in advance, and generally there will be news.
Chu Hua shook her head: "King Baihe is currently recruiting demon generals who are good at flying high. It seems that he intends to let the Niaozu pull chariots and fly all the way to Fengyue City. After all, the flying magic weapon is not majestic enough for the big monster."
Meng Xueli was a little surprised: "What?" Why does an aquarium that has been soaking in the bathtub all year round suddenly want to fly?
Chu Hua was also puzzled: "A monster said that the king is tired of staying at the bottom of the water and wants to go to a higher place. No one can figure out what the big monster is thinking..." He suddenly scratched the cat's ears, "Listen, the sound of water! The Baihe Territory is coming!"
Approaching the edge of the dense forest, the sky was finally seen again. Outside the forest, there was a faint sound of rushing rivers and turbulent waves lapping on the shore. Meng Xueli shook the mirage in her sleeve:
"Wake up and work, give me some evil spirit."
"Ow—"
The mirage beast opened its mouth, and a thick, pure and majestic evil spirit slowly escaped, enveloping Meng Xueli and the others.
Chu Hua was startled, and shrank behind Ruan Hui.Ruan Hui was used to the lazy appearance of mirages along the way, but under the influence of Chu Hua and instinct, she still shivered.
Bi You comforted: "Don't be afraid, this big monster is a tool, and he doesn't eat monsters."
Mirage beasts like water and shade, and when they hear the sound of water, they perk up and exhale more and more evil spirits.
Seeing this, Ji Xiao took out the mirage beast: "It's not right."
Meng Xueli reacted and took the mirage beast: "Yes, we are passing through the Baihe Territory, not here to grab the territory, and the evil spirit will be lighter. If it looks very difficult to provoke, it will not be bullied by other monsters, and there is no The meaning of provoking a fight, you try?"
The mirage was silent, as if thinking. After a while, it raised its head and let out a dull voice: "Oh?"
Meng Xueli: "Forget it, let's adapt. Let's go!"
Walking along the estuary, the rushing river, the rushing monsters.
"White River City" is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a big river flowing in front and the Montenegro Mountains in the back.In summer, the water potential rises, and the whole city is shrouded in light mist, like rain and smoke.Under the setting sun, several huge egrets spread their wings and flew past.
Meng Xueli squinted her eyes and saw the ancient saying of the Yaozu engraved on the top of the tall city: White River City.
The monster clan was originally huge. In order to facilitate the big monster to move its muscles and bones, the buildings in the demon world are generally more magnificent than those in the human world.The scale of Baihe City is about four or five times that of Hanmen City.
It was almost dusk, there were few monsters leaving the city, and many monsters entering the city. Meng Xueli's strong monster aura made the other monsters avoid it.
Entering the city, I saw waterfowls in the sky, shrimps and crabs in the sky, and big monsters in shape on their backs.Flying in the sky, running on the ground, all kinds of mounts, all kinds of monsters, come and go.
The little demons dodged the big ones, the big ones scolded the little ones, there was a lot of shouting and cursing on the road, the sound of hawking by the roadside, talking and laughing.
Chu Hua explained: "Recently, there are more monsters in and out of the city. King Baihe recruits monster generals who are good at flying and climbing high, and promises a lot of money. I don't know how many monsters come to apply."
Meng Xueli was dazzled by the sight, when suddenly a carp demon came to meet him.Although the transformed aquarium resembles a human being, it still has long fish whiskers on its face and a few green scales on its temples.
Chu Hua was about to worship him, but he heard him smile flatteringly at Meng Xueli: "Ghost, do you use a car? Crab carts, turtle carts, amphibious, you can take your servants and pets to travel freely. The Baihe River is beautiful, let’s get one!”
The big demon often subdues unwitted giant beasts as mounts.The carriages rented and sold in Baihe City are not human carriages and ox carts, but giant crabs and giant turtles trained and raised by local aquariums.
But for a moment, Meng Xueli and the others sat on the blue crab shells, submerged in the tide of monsters coming and going on the main street of Baihe City.
It was the first time for the three half-monsters to receive this kind of treatment, and they looked around excitedly, Ruan Hui whispered: "I have the feeling of a rabbit pretending to be a mirage, and a glorious ancestor."
Meng Xueli waved her hand, as if a big demon from other places entered the city with pride: "This time we come to Baihe City, let's stay in the best inn and eat in the best restaurant! Chu Hua, which is the best restaurant in the city?"
Ji Xiao smiled helplessly, and Meng Xueli said to the Taoist couple: "The place with the best news from all walks of life must be the restaurant."
Chu Hua couldn't hide her excitement: "Pearl Tower, it's opened by the Shui tribe. It only accepts powerful monsters, and even small monsters can't go up if they have money. Sometimes I pass by quietly at night, only dare to smell the smell."
Meng Xueli stretched out her hand and lightly pinched the mirage's tail: "A little more."
Mirage Beast: "Oh."
In front of the Pearl Tower, two river clam monsters stood at the door to greet them, and one led a big crab to the pool in the backyard: "Your car will help you feed you.".
The other led them upstairs: "Please come upstairs, noble monster."
The decoration in the building is exquisite and luxurious, with shark gauze as curtains, pearls as lamps, white jade-like walls, inlaid with pearls, shells and other decorations.
The viewing seat by the window on the second floor can overlook the street view.
When Meng Xueli sat down, the waiter He Mu said, "Our Pearl Tower has abundant aquatic products, what would you eat?"
Meng Xueli looked at Chu Hua and said, "You order. Order whatever you think is the most delicious."
Chu Hua: "Really, really?"
Meng Xueli nodded.
Chu Hua: "Dried pickled yellow croaker, dried pickled whitebait, dried pickled sea bass, dried pickled horse-faced fish..."
The man was dumbfounded.Not long after, six plates of dried fish came to the table one after another, with the same sauce color, the same presentation shape, and the same taste.
Ruan Hui took out a bag of fodder and diced radish from his arms.
Meng Xueli thought to herself, Baihe City is indeed a civet cat's dream paradise - endless dried fish.
Chu Hua didn't dare to move her chopsticks: "Eat first."
Meng Xueli: "You eat. I'm a vegetarian." He took out a storage bag full of snacks.
When Chu Hua and Bi You heard the words, they picked up the dried fish with relish.
Ji Xiao: "You can eat meat. It's okay."
Although the monk did not pay much attention to appetite after bigu, but Meng Xueli used to be a spirit mink, and he didn't know the taste of meat for three years, it seemed a bit hard.
Meng Xueli understood what he meant, but she was unwilling to break the oath, so she said via voice transmission: "If you do what you say, you can't go back on your word."
Ji Xiao thought about it seriously: "For me to force you to eat. For me, will you eat?"
Meng Xueli's eyes lit up: "I am willing to go through fire and water for the Taoist couple, drink soup and eat meat!"
The three half-demons saw that Elder Meng originally said to be a vegetarian, but was persuaded by his disciples, so they eagerly picked up chopsticks.
Meng Xueli started eating meat for the first time in three years. He chewed the dried fish with full anticipation. The fishy and salty taste instantly stimulated his tongue and rushed straight into his nose.
Ji Xiao tasted it and comforted him: "It's not your problem."
He called the river clam demon buddy: "Cooked puffer fish in a silver cup, fried anchovy shrimp, fried clams in chili sauce, steamed scallops with garlic, do you have any?"
Meng Xueli was greatly moved.
The waiter thought to himself, so the six plates of dried fish were just appetizers, and this table really knows how to eat: "Yes! But in time for the meal, the back kitchen is slow to serve food, please wait a moment."
While speaking, the second floor was filled with demon guests one after another.Drinking and chatting at each table is very lively.
If you listen carefully to their chat, they are probably talking about "Fengyue City Ten Thousand Monsters Conference".
At the next table, a demon with drunken eyes: "If you want me to say, let's guard Baihe, we can eat and drink, and other monsters can't come in. Who is working outside as the 'King of Ten Thousand Demons'? What kind of 'Ten Thousand Demons Conference' is held?" , has nothing to do with us!"
Another horseshoe crab echoed: "That's right! What's the matter with Guan Baihe when the demon king is changed outside? And the title of King of Lingshan is good, it's better than King of Snow Mountain!"
Meng Xueli was waiting for the food, and she had nothing to do to listen to the chat at the next table. She patted the horseshoe crab on the shoulder, and toasted him a glass of wine: "Brother monster, why do you say that?"
The horseshoe crab turned its head and looked at them: "Outlander demon?"
"Passing by, visit the scenery of Baihe City."
"No wonder you don't understand. We of the Baihe Shui family have regarded the Holy Snow Mountain as our father and mother since ancient times, because every summer, the melted water from the Holy Snow Mountain and the glaciers is the source of the Baihe River. The spirit mink is known as the 'Snow Mountain King', it is not obvious Taking advantage of our king?"
His voice was louder, and the whole room of aquariums echoed: "That's right, you want to be a father and you're crazy!"
Meng Xueli: "I see."
The Baihe Shui Clan had such an idea.No wonder when discussing the alliance back then, King Baihe's attitude was neither yin nor yang, neither cold nor hot, and he clearly wanted to move, but he refused to let go as if he was angry.
Meng Xueli gave a wry smile, without any excuse.
He said to the Taoist companion: "Actually, I really don't mean that."
How can a mink want to be a father to a group of shrimps, crabs, turtles, horseshoe crabs and mussels?
What's the use of me becoming this father?
Ji Xiao nodded in understanding.
But the aquarium at the table continued: "The King of Snow Mountain is very ambitious. He visited the Crystal Palace again and again. I think he just wants to marry our king. It's better for the King of Lingshan to be honest and not come once."
Meng Xueli hurriedly waved her hand to clarify: "You can eat food indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense!"
"You are a foreign demon, you don't know these things. King Baihe is the most beautiful demon in the demon world, how dare he say he doesn't want to marry?"
Meng Diao was startled, he didn't care about arguing with the river demon, he quietly looked at Ji Xiao's expression, but he couldn't understand the Taoist couple's happiness and anger.Fortunately, the river mussels were served in a timely manner, and the table was filled with delicacies on jade plates, with a tangy aroma.
Meng Xueli picked up food for the Taoist couple: "Eat some puffer fish."
Ji Xiao took a deep breath and let it out slowly, like a puffer fish.
The author has something to say: Ji Xiao: Qi becomes a puffer fish jpg.
Roll paper: Calm down, I haven't seen the Lingshan snake yet, the days of jealousy are still to come
Meng Diao: I don't know anything, I'm just a mink
