Fairy cage

Following the instructions given by the head of the Yu family, Yu Lie walked to a specific pick-up point at the Zhouche Station and looked up, looking for people of the same clan who might exist.

Another fox-faced Taoist with a deer head passed by him, attracting his attention again and again:

"Are these Taoists with animal forms formed through cultivation, or are they half-demon or pure monsters?"

Yu Lie was surprised.

In today's world of mountains and seas, Taoists include not only pure human beings, but also various monsters and spirits who are cultivating adults, studying principles, and even visitors from foreign lands.

Qianzhou Daocheng is a city that governs an area of ​​​​100,000 miles. It has existed for ten thousand years. It is naturally a mixed bag of fish and dragons and full of monsters. Now as soon as they stepped out of the station, they gave Yu Lie a big shock.

When Yu Lie's eyes kept drifting towards the beast-shaped Taoists, he was walking around when a voice suddenly sounded in his ears:

"If I were you, I would restrain my gaze and not repeatedly look at the sensitive parts of other Taoists. Otherwise, it is easy to cause displeasure or even disaster."

The words came in a clear voice and appeared beside Yu Lie.

Yu Lie paused, looked sideways, and found a young and elegant man in Taoist robes, who was holding a strange beast with a red crown and red feathers in his hand.

When Yu Lie heard what the other party said, he used his peripheral vision to look at the people passing by who he had just looked at.

He found that there were indeed several people who looked back at him with some unhappiness. Among them was a Taoist with tiger stripes on his face, who also glared at Yu Lie fiercely.

This made Yu Lie immediately realize that he might be a new arrival and had made some taboos for no apparent reason.

Yu Lie immediately withdrew his curious eyes in a good-natured manner, and bowed his hands apologetically towards the tiger-striped Taoist.

At this time, the Taoist who had spoken just now was still looking at Yu Lie with a smile. The strange bird next to him, which looked like a large rooster, was also staring at Yu Lie closely, its bird's light sharp.

The young Taoist also held a playing card in his hand, with the word "Yu Lie" written on it in red ink.

The Taoist handed over to Yu Lie, immediately crumpled the cards in his hand and threw them on the ground.

Before Yu Lie could say anything, the other party said, "The big red eyes are very useful. I have never met him before, and I recognized my cousin Yu Lie just by looking at the portrait."

As the Taoist spoke, he raised his hand towards the large cock beside him.

The rooster with red crown and red feathers stood proudly, looking even more majestic, with a cooing sound coming from its throat.

Yu Lie looked at the man in front of him, heard what he said clearly, and immediately understood that this man must be Yu Fenggao who came to meet him!

"Cousin Feng Gao?" He had a look of surprise on his face, and he hurriedly saluted the other party, intending to go over and have a detailed chat with him.

But just as Yu Lie took a step forward, something suddenly tripped his feet.

Goo goo goo!

A soft mud-like monster happened to wander to Yu Fenggao's feet first. It swallowed the paper ball dropped by Yu Fenggao into its belly.

This soft mud-like monster was only about the size of a cat or dog. Its transparent body was wrapped in a ball of paper. It squirmed and began to be digested immediately. Its body was painted with ink and glowed red.

The mud monster also turned around and swam back, bumped Yu Lie's feet and made a grunting sound before rolling to the other side to pick up other garbage.

Yu Lie's eyes were attracted by this soft mud monster, and he felt a little surprised again.

Yu Fenggao in front of him saw it, and the other party chuckled and explained: "This is a kind of monster that is hired all year round by the Zhouche Institute. It is a kind of foreign visitor. It can be responsible for picking up debris. It is rare in Diving County."

As Yu Fenggao spoke, he suddenly stretched out his hand to invite him. He turned over and got on the large rooster beside him, gesturing for Yu Lie to sit on it too.

Cack!

The rooster put Yu Fenggao on its back, and its body immediately expanded a bit, becoming as big as a horse, with its head and neck seven or eight feet high.

When Yu Lie saw the other party's behavior, he stood up, bowed and saluted again, and said, "Yu Lie has met Brother Feng Gao."

There were too many people coming and going, so Yu Lie didn't refuse or be polite. He walked directly to the large rooster, turned over and sat on it, and his body was pressed into a thick layer of feathers.

"Very good." Yu Feng, who was on the back of the red rooster, raised his head and said without replying:

"Sit tighter! Get up!"

After saying this, Yu Fenggao gently tapped the red chicken that sat down.

The big red rooster immediately started jumping and running, with a leap of at least five or six feet. He quickly avoided other paper horses and cranes running around, and flew towards a certain corridor, swaying left and right, wiping other people. Birds and beasts passed by, leaving behind afterimages.

Such a running speed was more powerful than Yu Lie's last ride on the Paper Moth, which caught him off guard and made him feel dizzy for a moment.

Fortunately, Yu Lie is now also a Taoist disciple who has completed the transformation of "swallowing gold and wearing jade", and his physical fitness is extraordinary. After he got used to it a little, the dizziness was not affected much, and he still had time to shout to Yu Fenggao in front of him:

"Cousin Fenggao, where are you and I going?"

Yu Fenggao's words flowed into Yu Lie's ears along with the strong wind:

"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. I came here with my mount and spiritual pet. If I stay a little longer, I'll have to pay more money. Your sister-in-law has already prepared food and wine at home, so we can go home directly."

A few simple words made Yu Lie feel slightly surprised.

According to the rumors among the clan, this clansman who stayed in Daocheng could be said to be cold-hearted and had no attachment to the clan.

As a result, when they met now, the other party's demeanor turned out to be gentle and quite enthusiastic. He directly invited Yu Lie back to his home to entertain him, instead of casually finding a stall on the roadside and finishing the matter.

This also made Yu Lie secretly wary. He briefly asked the other party about the Yu family's situation, and even asked a few wrong questions on purpose to test the other party's identity.

It turned out that the young Taoist who rode a rooster to meet him was undoubtedly Yu Fenggao from the same clan.

After confirming his identity, the other party's attitude was friendly and courteous, so Yu Lie continued to chat with the other party and even took the initiative to get close to him.

While the two were chatting, the red chicken sitting down kept running around on its own.

Suddenly, after a dizzying run, it climbed up to a high corner of the pavilion, then jumped down, spread its wings, and flew into an open space.

Boom!

A stream of strong air rushed towards them, causing the rest of the bodies on the back of the red chicken to sway, and they felt particularly weightless, almost threatening to fall off the back of the strange bird.

Yu Fenggao shouted: "Cousin, sit still more firmly!"

Yu Lie's eyes widened and he looked forward.

He found that as the red rooster sat down and ran away, the two of them had already left the boat and the carriage, and jumped off a tall building with cornices and brackets, and jumped to the darker bottom where no sunlight could be seen.

It turns out that when Yu Lie walked out of the boat and carriage just now, the place he was at was not the bottom of Qiancheng Daocheng, not the ground.

Numerous dense forest-like buildings were tightly packed together. Yu Lie changed from a little ant in the shadow to a fly flying randomly.

He looked around and saw that the space in front of him was filled with soaring utensils and monsters, criss-crossing in all directions, densely packed up and down.

There are birds and beasts, people and monsters, fish and insects, all kinds of strange things, chaotic but orderly intertwined.

There was also a huge boat and cart, swaying like a whale above the heads of the two people and the bird. The air fluctuations it pulled out shook the wind they were riding on, affecting countless small Taoists and monsters.

The huge Qianzhou Daocheng once again opened up a corner in front of Yu Lie.

Various aura signs also appeared in Yu Lie's eyes, shining brightly, and there were bursts of fairy sounds and mysterious sounds, which were noisy and buzzing, breaking into Yu Lie's ears.

"Lin's Alchemy Shop, a local brand in Qianzhou Daocheng, is opening today. Welcome fellow Taoists to come and have a look!"

"Class C Cave Mansion, Jie Tian Building, Qianyuan Mansion is on sale today, and those who come will be given spiritual wine as a gift!"

"It's opened! It's opened! The 108th branch of the Qianzhou Hehuan Sect is opened. The best female cultivator went to the Tao City for the first time, challenged the heroes with swords, and discussed yin and yang with all the fellow Taoists."

Hearing these shouts, Yu Lie suddenly became a "bumpkin" who had just entered the city. He continued to widen his eyes, prick up his ears, and look up and down.

As for Yu Fenggao, who was in front of Yu Lie, after he rode his mount into the air, he held the reins, sometimes swaying from side to side, sometimes upside down, and galloping at extremely high speeds.

As the two of them descended into the darkness inch by inch, there were more and more strange beasts and artifacts, large and small, walking through the air, becoming more crowded and chaotic.

When he had to pause his speed again, Yu Fenggao changed his gentle manner when picking up Yu Lie, and cursed a Taoist on the left:

"Shuzi! Has your mount passed the physical and mental examination this year? Aren't you afraid that the mount will go crazy and kill someone?"

The Taoist on the left was not easy to get along with either. He was not willing to wait for scoldings. He also uttered all kinds of scoldings and glared at Yu Fenggao.

Just when Yu Lie thought that the two of them were going to fight each other, the airflow of Chengfeng surged again. Whether it was Yu Fenggao or the Taoist on the left, they hurriedly greeted their mounts to sit down, rushed forward, and hurried on as soon as possible.

After such an urgent running, the two of them walked in circles and finally came to a dilapidated building.

They kept descending, almost landing near the heel of the building. The air became hot and humid. The large rooster fluttered and landed on a window. It stood up with a cooing sound and stopped flying.

Yu Fenggao greeted: "We've arrived."

Yu Lie was shocked. His legs were weak and he turned over and landed on the window sill. He waited for Yu Feng to open the door.

As a result, before he could stand still, the wooden door swayed loudly in the narrow window sill in front of him, and suddenly a black shadow came out of it and flew past Yu Lie, narrowly avoiding knocking Yu Lie down.

Yu Lie was shocked when he heard a voice coming from the black shadow: "Lao Yu, we've gone to pick someone up."

Yu Fenggao also responded: "Exactly. Brother Wang's business is booming so early today."

It turns out that this window sill is not unique to Yu Fenggao, there are other people living inside, and the black figure that rushed out just now is his neighbor.

The big red rooster cooed, took the lead in restraining his body, and rushed into the open window.

After Yu Fenggao greeted the black figure that rushed out just now, he immediately and enthusiastically asked Yu Lie to go inside: "If you walk further inside, you'll be home."

Yu Lie followed his example and walked quickly, following Yu Fenggao and Rooster, into the narrow corridor.

As a result, the two of them walked in less than half a cup of tea, going around in circles, passing door after door, and finally arrived at an inconspicuous small door.

The location of this doorway seems to be in the center of the entire building. It is very dark, the air is even more stuffy, and there is hardly any light. If it weren't for Yu Lie's extraordinary eyesight, he would almost be unable to see his fingers.

But there are really a lot of people living in such dark buildings, one after another, appearing and disappearing like ghosts when passing by.

Yu Lie followed his cousin Yu Fenggao along the way, walking and stopping, and met a Taoist who was too big. The two of them had to take a few steps back and retreat to a fork in the road to let the other person go first.

Along the way, Yu Lie's thoughts about seeing Yu Fenggao's residence were somewhat gone.

He began to suspect that the reason why the other party wanted to bring him to his home as a guest was not to show hospitality, but to prevent him from borrowing money and being pitiful?

Standing at the door, Yu Lie looked at Yu Fenggao, who was in front of him with exquisite robes and a spirit bird mount. He looked quite human, but he didn't feel like it.

He thought to himself: "Could it be that there is a cave inside the other party's mansion?"

As a result, when Yu Fenggao stood in front of the doorway, he called out the urn and opened the doorway. The two of them pushed the door open and entered. As expected, the scene of "a different world" appeared in Yu Lie's eyes.

As soon as he entered the door, a bed appeared in front of Yu Lie, who opened the door and entered the bed.

On both sides of the bed, there were full bookcases and boxes, as well as a Danding cauldron that was used for preparing medicinal materials or cooking food. The Danding cauldron was still steaming, and coals were burning under the cauldron.

Yu Lie hesitated for a moment, then stepped into it. As a result, he turned slightly and almost knocked down a bunch of things.

Yu Lie looked around and found that such a well-equipped mansion was only about one foot wide, one foot long, and one foot high.

Because of the dense arrangement of bookcases and other items, Yu Fenggao, who was walking in front of Yu Lie, had to stoop and couldn't straighten his waist.

In such a scene, Yu Lie listened to the crow of chickens beside him and felt as if he had entered a chicken coop, not at all like he had entered a monk's mansion.

This kind of place is far inferior to the Yu family's house in Diive County. Even the half-room in the courtyard that Yu Lie shared with others when he was in Heishui Town is far inferior.

Seeing such a dark residence, Yu Lie wondered for a moment whether his cousin's life was so miserable that he couldn't afford to rent a larger house.

And according to what the other party said when he came, this house seems to be shared by the other party and his Taoist companion?
