I Like Weird the Most

He Wenzhi took Bai Ruozi and quietly followed behind the owner of the bun shop all the way.

Along the way, he didn't find anything suspicious, but there were quite a few people who had the same idea as him.

At the beginning, the outsiders who were watching there, that is, the people who came in through the huge stone gate, were about 20 people in detail.

Although not all of them followed, there were seven or eight of them.

It's just that these people come from different forces, and some of them are casual cultivators, and they don't know each other at all.

They didn't think about who they were going to cheat now, they just wanted to find out what was going on.

Why did that person suddenly change his temperament, and why is there someone in this secret place.

It's just come in, and there are so many mysteries in the end, everyone is both curious and depressed.

It was only when they followed the steamed bun shop owner all the way to the residence and peeked outside that they realized that this trip seemed to be in vain.

Because after the bun shop owner brought the man home, he just let him squat in the yard and lift a big millstone, which seemed to be exercising his strength.

Then he led the donkey out of his own mill, and let the man go in to pull the mill instead of the donkey.

The man was pulling the mill, while the owner of the bun shop said sternly: "If you want to learn a craft well, you must first start with hard work and hard work, and start with laying down the basic skills!"

Looking at that person again, even though he was treated like a donkey, he didn't complain at all, instead he kept nodding his head in agreement.

This surprised all the people who peeked outside.

Is this really for learning how to make steamed stuffed buns?

This is obviously being tricked into being used as a donkey, right?

Everyone was stunned by this scene, and they all knew what to say.

At this time, the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop said again: "From today on, you will be with that donkey first, and when you can surpass it, I will teach you real Kung Fu as a teacher!"

"Good master!" The man tried his best to pull the mill, and nodded his head very seriously: "I know, I will definitely work hard to do it!"

"Okay! Very good! I am very optimistic about you!" The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop nodded in satisfaction, and then walked out.

Standing in the courtyard, he suddenly said: "Everyone, after watching for so long, could it be that you also want to worship me as a teacher?"

After saying that, he pulled open the concealed door.

The seven or eight awakened people and practitioners outside looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed for a while.

It's like being caught as a thief.

However, there are also some people who are more impulsive.

At this time, a person who couldn't hold back his temper jumped out and said directly: "Okay, you monster, what kind of magic method did you use to confuse that person?!"

The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop laughed loudly, and only heard him say: "Demon law? He just ate my stuffed buns and was moved by the deliciousness of my stuffed buns, so he was willing to worship me as his teacher. Didn't you all see this?" ?

How I trained him just now, haven't you all been watching outside? "

Because the door had been kept ajar before, people outside could see what was going on inside through the huge crack in the door.

In addition, there is not much sound insulation in the first place, and everyone is an awakener and a practitioner, so naturally they can hear the conversation inside clearly.

At this time, the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop said again: "If you don't believe me, you might as well try my steamed stuffed buns, and then you will know whether it is true or not."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone hesitated.

It was mainly because of the person who ate the bun just now, the contrast between his front and back was too great.

Everyone now, they can't guarantee whether they will be like that person after eating the buns.

And everyone present, their strengths are actually about the same, they are all between the fifth and seventh levels of [Day Hidden].

But the most exaggerated thing is that the person who ate the buns is the eighth level of [Day Hidden]!

That's why everyone dare not eat it.

It will be the same after eating the eighth weight. They are not as good as the eighth weight. Wouldn’t it be worse to eat it?

In short, upon hearing the suggestion from the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop, these seven or eight people all had the idea of ​​quitting.

The main reason is that the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop is too calm, and he looks completely confident.

He didn't seem to be afraid of the number of people on the other side at all, and he didn't even care whether these people would take advantage of their power and make a sudden move.

In addition, the person on the eighth level has become his disciple, even if he wants to use violence, it may not be very easy to use.

"This is a secret realm... This is a secret realm... Don't be impulsive..." Everyone said in their hearts, trying to stabilize themselves.

After looking around, these people finally shook their heads, saying that they didn't want to learn yet, but they could consider it, so it would take a little time.

When the owner of the bun shop heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter.

"Okay, okay, since you all have the same intention, then think about it carefully. My family lives here. If you think about it, you can come to me, or you can go directly to my apprentice!"

"Okay, then let's not bother, goodbye."

After finishing speaking, these seven or eight people hurriedly turned their heads and left, not even daring to turn their heads.

On the way, someone said, "Tell me... Does the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop have a weird feeling?"

"Now I know with my toes that he is not simple, why do you call him weird?"

"No, I'm just very strange, we were all peeping outside, but he didn't care at all when he found out, and said he wanted us to become apprentices too...

It seemed to me that he really wanted to take us in as apprentices. "

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

They thought about it seriously, and suddenly someone said: "I don't think what he taught that person just now has no technical content at all. Could it be that he knew we were outside, so he deliberately lied, just to show us?"

"But I think he didn't close the door on purpose, and left such a big gap, that he deliberately wanted to show us! Since he wanted to show us, why did he lie?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into a brief silence.

There are many people with mixed opinions and different ideas.

But at this time, another person said: "By the way... is there such a possibility?

That steamed stuffed bun shop owner really has real skills, maybe there are some hidden god-level skills or powerful props!

We are now just like in a game. Everyone here is an NPC. As long as the hidden mission is triggered and the mission is followed, can we get rewards?

Could the hidden mission of Baozipu be to eat buns?

That person triggered the mission just because he ate the steamed stuffed bun, and the steamed stuffed bun shop owner would take him back?

After he completes those, can he get rewards? "

Hearing this, someone looked at him strangely.

"I said brother, do you usually play too many games, and everyone is playing magic? This is a secret realm! It's a secret realm! Do you know what a secret realm is? Do you think we are downloading a copy of the game? And get rewards ? If it were that easy, I'd cut off my head and kick it for you!"

"..."

Everyone was speechless. It didn't mean that this person's speech just now was a little too excited, but that the person who thought this place was like a game really thought things too simply.

If the task could be triggered by eating something, then this steamed stuffed bun shop was not the only one that wanted them to eat.

In this way, is it possible to trigger tasks and get rewards after eating those things?

If it was really that simple, then this secret realm would be too cheap.

That's the way it is said, and the reasoning is the same, but once this idea pops up, some people can't help but think about it.

For a while, some people were eager to move, thinking whether they should try it or not?

At this time, another person said: "This is a strange place now, everything on the surface looks peaceful, but it is full of weirdness everywhere, since we are all from outside, how about we work together next time!

If we can find a large force, then no matter what we do, it will be much more convenient! "

This proposal was immediately approved by everyone, and someone proposed to call those people together.

In short, there is strength in numbers.

But another person said: "It's getting dark now, where are we going? I always feel that this city is very weird..."

"But I think the outside of the city is even weirder. You all saw such a desolate scene when you entered the city, right? If you spend the night outside, I think it may be more dangerous than inside the city."

"this……"

"Why don't you find a place to rest for the night?"

"Okay! Let's gather other people together first, and then find a hotel to stay for one night!"

"You are wrong, this is an ancient city, so it is not called an inn, but an inn!"

"Isn't there still a lot of people wearing modern clothes?"

"..."

Yes, it is obviously an ancient city, but the people in the city, besides those wearing ancient clothes, are also modern, and even from different eras.

…………

On the other side, the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop smiled when he saw that this group of people had left.

His expression is always very relaxed, and his smile is very happy and bright.

"There should be two more people on the roof." He whispered with the corners of his mouth curled up.

I moved a ladder from the corner of the yard, put it on the eaves and climbed up.

It's just that when he got on the roof, he found that there was no one there at all.

He looked up at the sky, it was already evening.

"Have you already left?" The owner of the bun shop said to himself, "Forget it, let's go..."

…………

In the small alley, He Wenzhi remained silent, and Bai Ruozi also stood beside him quietly.

Just now, he didn't guard the door with those people to peek, but cautiously went up to the roof and saw everything from there.

Then he saw those people had left, and saw the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop getting up on a ladder, so he left in a hurry.

"The owner of this steamed stuffed bun shop is quite powerful!" He Wenzhi thought to himself, "He seems to have expected this a long time ago..."

It's just that until now, there are still many things that I can't figure out.

Bai Ruozi suddenly said at this time: "Ask brother, I feel that the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop really wants to accept us as apprentices... But if he must have eaten steamed stuffed buns before accepting his apprenticeship, I don't think it's appropriate. , go directly to learn art, is the boss willing?"

Upon hearing this, He Wenzhi also felt that it was not impossible to give it a try, he really cared about what was in it.

But there is no need to be in a hurry, you need to observe again.

He Wenzhi said: "It's getting dark, let's not worry, it's not too late to make a decision tomorrow after we see the situation."

"Okay, I'll ask my brother." Bai Ruozi nodded.

If it is about being anxious, He Wenzhi is probably more anxious than any of them, but there is no clue, and he can only start with a certain thing first. Clues about Huang Xiaoyan.

The two walked forward and slowly came out of this small alley.

Just as soon as he came out, a hurried figure suddenly bumped into him.

He Wenzhi pulled Bai Ruozi behind him, and the hurried little figure crashed into his arms.

Looking down, it turned out to be a little girl in white short sleeves with a little rabbit printed on her chest and a denim skirt underneath.

This is a man in modern attire, and looks to be under twenty years old.

When He Wenzhi helped her up, she kept bowing her head and apologizing.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I didn't expect someone to come out here suddenly. I'm sorry... I didn't look at the way... Are you, are you all right?"

"It's okay." He Wenzhi said something, and then asked, "Why are you running in such a hurry?"

"Because it's getting dark!" the little girl said, with a strange look in her eyes.

She said: "You must go back before dark, and you cannot come out after dark. This is the rule here, don't you know?"

"I know." He Wenzhi laughed and said, "I saw that you ran too hastily, and thought you ran into a bad guy."

"Bad guys?" The little girl was stunned again, and said, "How is it possible? There are no bad guys in the city. Everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, lives happily, and their families are harmonious. Everyone has no reason to do bad things, so where are the bad guys? ?”

"...What I say about feelings is wrong, right?" He Wenzhi muttered in his heart, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Seeing He Wenzhi's expression, Bai Ruozi couldn't help pursing his lips into a smile.

She took a step forward and said, "little sister, he is joking with you, don't be as knowledgeable as him. He just wants to get close to you and say a few more words because he sees you beautiful."

"Ah? Ah..." When the little girl heard this, she blinked her eyes, and suddenly dodged a little. She even lowered her head, her cheeks flushed slightly, as if she was very shy.

She squeaked and said, "You, you are also very handsome... very beautiful..."

"How come, little sister, you are really good-looking and cute! If I were a man, I would definitely fall in love with you!" Bai Ruozi continued.

"I, I, I..." The little girl became even more shy after being praised, and even her ears turned red.

I have to say that she is really easy to be shy. It seems that she has rarely been praised like this before, or is she... molested?

Perhaps this city is really simple and honest.

"Ah! No, no, no! It's going to be dark soon, I have to go back quickly." The little girl suddenly came to her senses, and she hurriedly said: "Little brother, little sister, you should go back too!"

"Little brother, little sister?" He Wenzhi's heart skipped a beat.

If you use such a title, then it should be a modern person, right?

It seems that the other party is not only wearing modern clothes, but also a modern person?

In this way, does it mean that the people in this city, the clothes of what era they are wearing, represents what era they are from?

But why do people from different eras gather here?

Could it be because the time and space here are out of order?

Or, this is a space-time node, and many people from various eras have entered here by mistake?

He Wenzhi thought to himself, and said, "Little sister, we live on the other side of the city, it's already this time, we probably won't be able to go back before dark..."

"Ah? This... But there are regulations in the city, you can no longer stay outside at night..." The little girl looked very worried, she thought for a while, and suddenly said: "My house is right in front, why don't you stay outside tonight?" Stay with me for one night first, and then go back tomorrow?"

"Okay! Then thank you sister!" He Wenzhi nodded his thanks.

What he said was for this purpose.

"No thanks, no thanks, just treat it as my apology for bumping into you just now." The little girl said.

He Wenzhi smiled without saying a word, and got the free accommodation.

But he was still very curious, why did the city stipulate that they could not stay outside at night?

He thought about it carefully, and remembered that when he first came in, he met a young man.

The young man also reminded him not to go out, because it was almost night and it would be dangerous outside the city.

This is understandable, because He Wenzhi has already gone out of the city to see it, let alone at night, it is probably dangerous during the day.

But why are there restrictions in the city?

He asked this naive and shy little girl side-by-side, but she still said, "This has always been the rule in the city!"

What she said seemed to mean that it was like this, and there was no reason for it.

Like it is, by default.

At the same time, He Wenzhi also asked what the name of the city was, and the little girl said: "This is called Wuyou City, which means Wuyou Wuyou."

He Wenzhi nodded, the name really fits the city.

The people inside live and work in peace and contentment, and their lives are very happy, but they are really carefree.

Finally, He Wenzhi politely asked one thing he was curious about now, that is why everyone in this city wears clothes from different eras. If they are really from different eras, then they Are you aware of this yourself?

However, the little girl's answer was still the same as before.

"It's always been like this? Everyone is like this, what's so strange?"

This answer is still the same as the default.

In other words, people here actually don't know about it at all?

He Wenzhi had doubts in his heart, and then asked the little girl if she knew Lanyue Mountain, or Tianji Mountain, and if she had heard of Xuanwu Pavilion.

However, the little girl said that she had never heard of it.

She said: "There are no mountains in Wuyou City, but there are many outside the city... But outside the city is dangerous, and few people go out, so I don't know."

In this regard, He Wenzhi could only nod helplessly.

Soon, the three arrived at the residence.

This is a simple house with a small yard in the middle, a tree planted in the yard, and a well beside it.

After pushing the door and walking in, the little girl shouted: "Grandma, grandma!"

"Hey, here we come!" An old man's voice came from inside.

Following the sound, a wrinkled, stooped, crutched old woman came out of the house.

"You wild girl! I didn't know I'd come back until this hour! It's almost dark!" Grandma complained.

"Hee hee." The little girl giggled and said, "I went out to play today, and ran a little far, so I wasted some time. Didn't I come back before dark!"

Grandma held the little girl's hand and smiled dotingly.

At this time, she looked at He Wenzhi and Bai Ruozi again, and said, "Xiaoyu, these two are...?"

"Oh, I forgot to mention, hehe." Xiaoyu tapped his head, and said hastily, "This is the brother and sister I met on the road. They live too far away and have no time to go back, so I invited They stay at our house for one night first, and then go back when it dawns tomorrow."

"Oh, that's right!" The old woman looked up and down He Wenzhi and Bai Ruozi with her cloudy eyes, and suddenly asked, "Where do you come from?"

He Wenzhi recalled the direction he entered the city at that time, and his current location. After comparing each other, he pointed to the opposite direction in the city.

Seeing this, the old grandma looked at him without saying a word, staring at him with a pair of cloudy eyes, and after a while she said: "So it's from the west of the city...Since it was brought back by Xiaoyu, then Stay here for one night first!"

Immediately afterwards, she pointed to the house on the left and said, "That's the guest room. The bedding and sheets are placed in the cabinet inside. You can make them yourself when you sleep."

"Okay, thank you grandma." He Wenzhi thanked Bai Ruozi very politely.

The old lady nodded and said, "Then you young people talk first. I'll go to the kitchen to heat up the food first. It's getting late now, so finish your dinner early and go to bed early."

"Grandma, you don't have to trouble, we've eaten outside and we're not hungry." Bai Ruozi said a polite word.

"Then you guys go into the house and tidy up the place where you sleep at night, and I'll heat up the food for Xiaoyu and me." The old lady said, and walked into the kitchen.

Bai Ruozi: "..."

Shouldn't polite words be answered with polite words?

Why is this old lady so rude?

She was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "My grandma is like this when she is getting old, sometimes she is still talking...don't mind it!"

As she spoke, she took Bai Ruozi's hand and said, "Miss sister, brother, come with me, and I'll take you into the house to have a look."

She happily dragged Bai Ruozi into the guest room, while He Wenzhi looked back in the direction of the kitchen, and followed him in.

The room was very simple, with only one bed and a closet next to it.

The room was clean and there was no dust on the bed.

Xiaoyu fetched a basin of water and wiped the bed board with a rag. After drying, she took out the bedding and sheets from the cabinet, and they were still neatly spread.

Bai Ruozi was watching and would help out from time to time. He Wenzhi would do it himself when he saw something heavy.

This girl named Xiaoyu is innocent and enthusiastic. Not only does she love to laugh, but she is also very agile in her work.

not bad.

After finishing all this, she wiped the sweat from her forehead with her arm, and said, "Talk first, I'll help grandma cook."

"good."

"Thank you for your hard work, sister Xiaoyu."

The two of them were talking.

Xiaoyu smiled and shook his head to express that he was not working hard.

Just like that, after Xiaoyu left, only He Wenzhi and Bai Ruozi were left in the room.

Glancing left and right, Bai Ruozi lowered his head and said, "There is only one room..."

"Um."

"Only one bed..."

"Um."

"Then we will..."

"You can sleep by yourself at night, I won't sleep."

"oh oh……"

Bai Ruozi responded, and sat down on the bed with his head down.

She held her hands between her legs, her white hair fell down and covered her cheeks, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

He Wenzhi stood by the window, looked at the scene in the yard through the window, and then turned his gaze to the kitchen.

Smoke was coming from the chimney, and even in the room, the sound of cooking and cooking could be heard.

Although there may be modern people in this city, there is no modern equipment, and everything is still as it was in ancient times.

After all, this city is an ancient city.

So now they cook and cook with firewood.

Soon, the movement over there stopped, and Xiaoyu walked out of the kitchen with a smile on his face, and came here and knocked on the door.

"Brother and sister, the food is ready, do you want to come and eat some?"

Bai Ruozi stood up, opened the door, shook his head, and said, "No need, we're not hungry now, sister Xiaoyu and grandma will eat first!"

"Are you sure you don't want to eat?" Xiaoyu tilted his head and asked.

"I really don't eat."

"Oh well……"

After speaking, Xiaoyu left like this.

In fact, outside, He Wenzhi and Bai Ruozi didn't eat at all, but seeing the abnormal reaction of the person who ate the buns, He Wenzhi felt a little vigilant.

Although I can't guarantee that all the food in this city has problems, it must be just in case, because this is a secret place.

Bai Ruozi was also wary, and since He Wenzhi had already said she would not eat it, she would naturally not say she would eat it again.

But before entering, both of them prepared backpacks filled with food.

It's just that Bai Ruozi didn't pretend much, because she came in with the large army of the Corpse Friendship Sect.

At that time, the large army of the corpse tribe and the two transport vehicles prepared by themselves were filled with food and water.

So Bai Ruozi packed some things in his bag other than food and water.

For example, underwear and panties for replacement.

It's just that now because of the random teleportation, she has completely separated from the main force. It is estimated that the entire zombie friendly faction has been dispersed because of this factor.

The two transport vehicles should have been teleported to different places, but it is not known whether the people in the vehicle were with the vehicle or dispersed.

It can now be said that many of the plans at the beginning were disrupted.

For example, at the beginning Li Ziru said that Zhenmagic Division would also prepare a lot of transport vehicles to come in, but now that we have encountered such a situation, it is estimated that those transport vehicles will not know where they will go after they come in, the original supply point or something, It has been difficult to achieve.

Those who came in, including the members of the Spiritual Investigation Bureau and the Zhenmagic Division, can only rely on their own ability to live in this secret realm.

"I hope everyone is lucky!" He Wenzhi thought to himself, and then he thought of something else.

When he asked Xiaoyu what the city was called before, he actually wanted to try it out.

What if this city is called Spring City?

When he came in, he had seen the mural in Tianji Mountain Palace before.

It was an ancient city, the predecessor of Spring City.

If this city is Spring City, then there will be Lanyue Mountain in it, and there will be Xuanwu Pavilion on the mountain.

Such a symbolic existence, and it is still inherited from ancient times, if it can be found, maybe you can get information related to Huang Xiaoyan.

I don't know why, but He Wenzhi always has this feeling in his heart.

The two souls and seven souls that Huang Xiaoyan was separated from must not be simple, otherwise there would be no need to lock them in a secret realm.

It's just a pity that through Xiaoyu's answer, He Wenzhi also learned that this place is called Wuyou City, and there is no Lanyue Mountain and Xuanwu Pavilion in the city.

No amount of information, no more.

At this moment, Xiaoyu came and knocked on the door again.

She had already finished her dinner, when she knocked on the door, she brought a basin of hot water with a towel on it.

"Brother, sister, it's getting late, you should wash up and go to bed earlier." Xiaoyu said.

"Thank you, Xiaoyu." Bai Ruozi said.

In fact, they can get the hot water for washing by themselves, and the other party doesn't need to do this at all.

"Sister, you're welcome." Xiaoyu shook his head, put down the basin, and said, "Just pour the water in the yard after washing."

"Okay." Bai Ruozi replied.

At this time, Xiaoyu glanced at He Wenzhi who was standing by the window, and then at Bai Ruozi.

She suddenly said in a low voice: "Little brother, little sister, there is only one guest room in my house. Is it convenient for the two of you?"

He Wenzhi didn't speak to Bai Ruozi.

Xiaoyu said again: "How about this! Young lady, you sleep with me at night. I sleep in a room alone, so you can just sleep with me."

Bai Ruozi thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, I'll just sleep here."

"Oh~" Xiaoyu nodded, with a bright smile on his face: "So you really have that kind of relationship! Then I'm leaving!"

After Xiaoyu left, Bai Ruozi said, "This little girl is really enthusiastic!"

"Yeah, the enthusiasm is a bit too much." He Wenzhi nodded, "The people in the whole city are not ordinary enthusiasm."

After speaking, he stared at the basin of water, but did not move.

I can't say why, but I feel too enthusiastic, and I always feel that nothing is right.

Seeing this, Bai Ruozi didn't touch the basin of water, but closed the door.

After that, the two of them took out some things from their backpacks and ate a little bit to fill their stomachs.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the sky gradually darkened. At this time, through the window, only a little faint light could be seen, and some outlines of things outside could be vaguely seen.

The trees in the yard looked pitch-black, like a tall, slender black shadow standing there.

The room also looked pitch black, as if layer upon layer of pitch-black ghosts were stretched infinitely and overlapped.

He Wenzhi came back from the window, took out the lighter and lit the oil lamp on the table.

A dim fire lit up the room.

Boom boom boom!

But at this moment, there was another knock on the door.

This is the third knock on the door.

Bai Ruozi got up and wanted to open the door, but He Wenzhi stopped her and shook his head at her.

He motioned Bai Ruozi to sit down first, and then walked to the door by himself.

"Who?" he asked.

"It's me." The old woman's voice came from outside the door.

He Wenzhi looked back at Bai Ruozi, and then opened the door.

He put on a smile on his face, trying to look as nice as possible.

"Grandma, it's going to be completely dark, you still don't rest at this time, what's the matter?"

The old grandma turned her cloudy eyes, took a look in the room, and then said: "It's nothing, I just came to tell you, go to bed early at night, even if you can't sleep, don't come out!"

"Remember, no matter what happened or heard any sound, don't open the door, don't open the window, and don't come out!"

The old lady reminded me again.

He Wenzhi frowned secretly, still smiling and showing curiosity.

He only heard him ask: "Grandma, why is this?"

"How can young people have so many reasons?" the old lady said.

He Wenzhi: "It's because you are young that there are so many reasons!"

Granny: "..."

"I'm too lazy to tell you more!" The old lady rolled her eyes. She felt that if she continued to talk, this young man would definitely say a lot more.

She glanced around the room again with her eyeballs, and her eyes fell on the untouched basin.

There was still clear water in it, but it was completely cold, and the towel was also placed on it, neatly and untouched.

The old lady looked up and down, at Bai Ruozi who was sitting on the bed, and at He Wenzhi who was standing at the door with a smile all the time.

Under the dim light, the wrinkles on her face unconsciously tightened.

The old lady said: "Pour out the water without washing, and return the basin and towel to me!"

He Wenzhi: "..."

Is this all seen?

He picked up the basin, poured water in the yard, and then handed the basin and towel to the old woman.

"Thank you grandma for your kindness."

"Huh!" The old lady snorted coldly, took the basin with one hand, leaned on a cane with the other, and turned to leave.

"Go to bed early! Remember my words! Don't go out when it's dark."

With that said, the grandma walked back into the house.

The empty yard was pitch black, and the night fell completely at this moment.

Dim yellow light came out, gusts of cold wind blew in, and the flames flickered.

The tree in the yard seemed to be writhing in the dark night.

Squeak!

He Wenzhi closed the door, and there was a harsh sound when the wooden door turned.

He went to the window again and closed the window.

The whole room was sealed instantly, except for the dim light of a yellow oil lamp.

The flames were beating, and the faces of both of them were flickering.

Bai Ruozi suddenly said: "Ask brother, why doesn't she let us go out at night? On the road before, Xiaoyu also said that there are regulations in the city that we can't stay outside at night.

Although this is an ancient city, and there were indeed curfews in ancient times, but what the old lady said just now, I always feel a little weird..."

He Wenzhi: "You don't have to think it's weird, because it's weird!"

He took a step forward, looked down at Bai Ruozi, and said, "Don't you feel that the people in the whole city are extremely enthusiastic, but now only this old lady is particularly cold to us."

"Brother, do you mean...?"

"Most of them are like this, but she is different, she is more like a different kind!"

"Is that grandma having a problem?"

"I don't know, it's also possible that everyone is drunk and she is alone, but she is the only one who is fine."

Bai Ruozi: "..."

He Wenzhi thought for a while and asked, "Bai Ruozi, let me ask you, do you think they are people or ghosts?"

"It's a human." Bai Ruozi nodded, and said with certainty, "Xiaoyu has been in contact with me before, so he is indeed a human."

He Wenzhi also nodded, he had also been in contact with Xiaoyu, and he could tell that the other party was indeed a human being.

But this is a secret realm, why are there people in the secret realm? And still a modern person?

Just thinking about it, if there are real people in this secret realm, and they are all living people, then they are not allowed to go out at night, is it because there are ghosts at night?

He Wenzhi turned around and sat on the bed too.

As soon as he sat down, Bai Ruozi's whole body froze suddenly, visibly becoming tense.

"In short, let's observe first, just to see if something will happen tonight, and then tomorrow, we will see how the person who is going to learn how to make buns is doing." He Wenzhi said, looking at Bai Ruozi.

Seeing that she seemed very nervous, I thought she was afraid, so she sat there again, and said at the same time: "Don't be afraid, sleep peacefully at night, I won't sleep even if I don't sleep for a few days have any effect."

It's just that he just finished speaking, but Bai Ruozi became even more nervous.

She lowered her head, her expression could not be seen clearly under the dim light, only her two hands were clasped together, and she kept buttoning the corner of the skirt.

He asked: "What's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable?"

"No, I'm fine... Ask brother, I'll go to bed first." Bai Ruozi shook his head hastily, then quickly climbed onto the bed, turned sideways, facing the wall, with his back to He Wenzhi.

He Wenzhi didn't think too much, and sat on the bed again, leaning his back against the wall.

From the beginning, he never thought about going to bed at night, because there are too many weird places here, if he falls asleep, who knows what will happen.

In fact, it is also possible to let Bai Ruozi keep watch at night, or the two of them can have a separate time to rest, but He Wenzhi is not at ease.

If he fell asleep, it would be equivalent to handing over his life to someone else.

This is a secret place, and he must be fully alert, especially since he has to wake up Huang Xiaoyan and retrieve her separated soul.

Just as He Wenzhi was thinking, Bai Ruozi suddenly asked in a low voice: "Brother, are you the only one who came into the secret realm? I remember that there should be a very powerful female ghost sister beside you, right?"

"Well, I only brought her in this time."

"What about her? Why haven't I seen her? Is she your guardian spirit?"

"She's asleep." He Wenzhi's voice became heavy unconsciously.

"Why?"

"have no idea."

"Are you worried about her now?"

"Yes, I've been thinking about how to solve her problem, but I just got here, and I have no clue, so I can only solve the problem before me, maybe I can gain something..."

"Oh..." Bai Ruozi responded lightly, and said inexplicably, "You are so kind to the female ghost sister..."

"She was nice to me, too."

"..."

Bai Ruozi stopped talking, as if he had really fallen asleep.

Time passed by every minute and every second.

In the middle of the night, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it. It was already past one in the morning.

He suddenly wanted to go to the toilet, but he remembered the old grandmother's advice.

But you can't pee in the room, right?

After thinking about it, he decided to go out and solve it.

If there is really something at night, He Wenzhi wants to see what it is!

He got out of bed, pushed open the door, and after walking out, he closed the door gently again.

He glanced left and right, then turned to the back of the house, where there was a simple small toilet.

To be precise, it should be a toilet.

Pushing open the toilet door and walking in, he unbuttoned his belt and started booing.

The sound of splashing water sounded very obvious in the silent night.

After the pissing was done, He Wenzhi put on his pants, turned around and opened the door of the latrine to go out.

But at this moment, a wrinkled old face suddenly appeared in front of him, and those gray eyes were staring straight at him.

Even He Wenzhi, who was used to seeing ghosts, was taken aback by this sudden move.

【Spiritual Power +1】

The increase in mental power, which has not been seen for a long time, is obtained by fright.

"Good young man, old lady, didn't I remind you not to come out at night!" the old woman said in a cold voice.

In the dark of night, the old woman was holding a paper lantern in her hand. Under the faint light of the fire, her wrinkled face looked even more eerie at this time.

Especially when the light is from bottom to top, it is not surprising that the appearance is said to have the special effects of the underworld.

He Wenzhi let out a breath and said, "Grandma, can you make a little noise when you walk? I'm peeing! What if you scare me there?"

"Go back! Don't talk to me! I'm reminding you, no matter what happens, don't come out again! Close the doors and windows! Don't inquire, and don't be curious!" She kept staring at He ask.

He Wenzhi nodded, indicating that he knew, and walked towards the room.

However, at this moment, the room in the middle, that is, the room where Xiaoyu slept, suddenly lit up with the light of a candle.

"Twitter twitter..."

A very faint, almost sobbing sound sounded out.

He Wenzhi turned his head to look, and then glanced at the old lady who had been following behind him.

"Grandma, Xiaoyu, this is...?"

"Young man, I advise you to take care of yourself and don't ask too many questions!" The old woman frowned and said in a cold voice, "Go in now!"

At the same time, she changed her tone again, and said softly to Xiaoyu's room: "Xiaoyu, it's grandma who wakes up at night, you go back to sleep, it's fine."

After grandma finished speaking, there was a rustling sound in Xiaoyu's room, followed by something falling down, as if a shadow was swaying indistinctly.

In the next second, the fire in Xiaoyu's room was extinguished and it became pitch black.

At this time, the old lady turned her head to look at He Wenzhi again: "You still want to watch! Come in for me!"

As she spoke, she pushed He Wenzhi, and then kicked He Wenzhi's calf.

"You young man, why are you so disobedient!"

He Wenzhi glanced at Xiaoyu's room, and finally entered the room.

Outside the door, the old lady told me again, don't come out at night, don't!

And this time, her tone was more like a warning than a reminder.

In the room, the oil lamp crackled, and Bai Ruozi turned around slightly.

She grabbed the corner of He Wenzhi's clothes and asked, "Brother Wen, did you go out just now?"

"Um."

"Did something happen? I heard movement outside just now, and then I heard your voice outside..."

He Wenzhi thought for a while and said, "Let's talk after this night."

As for whether something happened, there is nothing special about it. There are still many uncertainties. He didn't want to mislead Bai Ruozi's judgment, so he didn't say it directly.

But he still said: "Bai Ruozi, if you find anything, remember to tell me in time. At the same time, you must have your own thinking and judgment!"

"okay, I get it."

…………

Under the night, the entire Wuyou City was pitch black, and one could not see one's fingers. There were layers of dark clouds floating in the sky.

In an alley, two young men squatted on the ground.

While they were smoking cigarettes, they also complained in their mouths, and at the same time they still looked bruised and swollen.

"Damn, what a bad luck! It's all your bad idea!"

"How can you blame me again? You did it yourself first!"

"Then how could I know that the shopkeeper of that inn is so powerful that he beat us like this with just a few punches."

"Oh, forget it, don't talk about it, just spend the night on the street like this, no one will see it anyway, and no one will know when we go out, no shame."

Speaking of it, these two people are also stupid and unlucky.

The awakened and cultivators who came in before all gathered together, but these two were the only ones who failed to catch up.

Later, when it got dark, they wanted to find a place to spend the night first, but they had no money.

Not many people take cash with them when they go out these days. They either bring cards or pay by scanning codes.

However, these are impossible in the secret realm.

And it's a secret place inside, even if you bring in cash from outside, it may not be usable.

Especially, no one knew that this secret realm would be like this.

They didn't want to sleep on the street, so they wanted to discuss whether they could pay on credit first.

The shopkeeper said that they can pay on credit, as long as they are willing to stay and work here.

However, they didn't want to work part-time, and then there was an inexplicable quarrel, and finally they did it directly.

It's just that it was really unlucky that they failed to catch up with the main force, but the two of them were left behind.

But it's a bit foolish to start a quarrel and fight again. It's still a secret place, and I haven't figured out what's going on inside.

So in the end, one of them was the fifth level of [Day Hidden] and the other was the sixth level, and they were punched into pigs' heads by the shopkeeper of the inn.

If it weren't for the simple folk customs here, I'm afraid their fate would be even worse.

The two were smoking, and one was playing with the lighter boredly.

There was a non-stop crackling, the fire light flickered on and off, the faces of the two appeared and then disappeared into the darkness.

However, in the next second.

Snapped!

As the lighter was turned on, the person on the left suddenly saw a grimace close in front of him.

It has almost reached the distance from face to face. It is a pair of cross-eyed, pale faces, but with two round blush grimaces.

This sudden scene made the man tremble all over, the cigarette fell to the ground, and the whole person even flicked it backwards.

Snapped!

It's just that with this bomb, he just felt as if he had hit something, it was extremely cold.

A pair of hands grabbed his shoulders, and the icy cold air spread, as if it was going to freeze his whole body.

The sticky black long hair fell loose, and there was a ticking sound, as if something had dripped on his face, chilling his bones.

At this moment, he found that he couldn't move, and he couldn't even move the Qi in his body.

He opened his mouth and shouted: "Chen Wu! Chen Wu! Help me! Where are you!"

Just looking around, there is nowhere to be seen Chen Wu in this dark and gloomy street.

It seemed that from the very beginning, he was the only one here.

…………

Early the next morning, the sky finally turned white.

He Wenzhi stood in the yard and stretched, and Bai Ruozi also stood beside him.

Xiaoyu and the old lady also got up early.

Regarding what happened last night, the grandma didn't say a word, she just asked if they wanted breakfast, and if they didn't, then they wouldn't be both of them.

Seriously, that attitude was nothing like the enthusiastic way of the rest of the town.

"No need, thank you grandma." He Wenzhi refused, and Bai Ruozi also nodded.

"That's fine, you can do whatever you want." The old grandma said, and walked directly into the kitchen.

Xiaoyu said with some reluctance: "Little brother, little sister, are you leaving?"

"Um."

"Okay... I haven't had breakfast yet, so I won't see you off. It's dawn, you go home!" Xiaoyu said, holding Bai Ruozi's hand: "Miss sister, if you have time in the future, you You can come here and play with me!"

"Okay." Bai Ruozi nodded and smiled.

The two left and walked towards the bun shop from yesterday.

They can be said to have come very early, but they didn't know that those awakened people and cultivators came earlier than them yesterday, and they were all surrounded by the bun shop.

Walking over to see, the person who ate the crystal buns yesterday actually sold the buns here.

The original owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop also disappeared.

The boss seems to be very relieved of this apprentice who just accepted yesterday, and even let him here alone.

Others are also curious.

Then someone asked, "Where's your master?"

"What master? I don't have a master." The man said.

"Are you kidding? The teacher you just worshiped yesterday, okay! You don't admit it now?"

"That's right! It's the owner of the bun shop, why didn't he come today?"

"Damn it! Could it be that you did something wrong to the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop?"

The man froze for a moment, then frowned, with obvious displeasure on his face.

"What nonsense are you all talking about here?! I don't have any master! Also, this steamed stuffed bun shop belongs to me! I am the boss here! If you don't believe me, you can ask people from other shops nearby!"

Perhaps because he felt that he had been slandered, there was a hint of anger on this person's expression.

I just heard him say: "Do you want to buy steamed stuffed buns or not? If you don't buy steamed stuffed buns, hurry up and leave. Don't block here and hinder my business!"

For a moment, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. How could this person look like a completely different person? .

Suddenly someone asked: "Hey, do you still remember who I am?"

"Who are you? I've never seen you before, how do I know who you are?"

More than 13,000 words, the truth is overwhelming.
