Chapter 230: The Reappearance of the Corpse Demon (1)
A group of people sat on the spaceship. Li Xiu touched the spaceship and said with emotion: "It's better than mine."
Tao Zi commented: "It's a good deal."
He corrected her: "You are the one who made money, but I am the one who lost money."
While they were chatting, Yue Qingya held the fox by the scruff of its neck and looked at its body.
The little fox said irritably: "What are you going to do?"
"Make you some clothes that can cover it up."
When Tao Zi heard this, she turned around and said, "It's not that troublesome. Just get a bamboo basket and bury it underneath."
Li Xiu said, "We might be inspected when we enter the city, so why not get a bigger cloak and stuff it inside."
Several people started discussing this matter, and the little fox struggled out and ran to the side to sleep.
As they were talking, a small town appeared not far away. Tao Zi looked at the sky and said, "Let's go in and rest?"
Li Xiu asked, "But it's still quite early, aren't we going to continue on our journey?"
She took out a map, pointed in the direction and said, "According to the map, the next town is quite far away."
"Okay, then rest here."
To be on the safe side, they got off the boat at a distance and walked over. Yue Qingya even suppressed his aura to the enlightenment stage.
The town was not guarded, so they walked right in.
As soon as you enter, you will hear a bustling noise and the sounds of various vendors.
Tao Zi was a little surprised that there were still so many people here when it was almost evening.
A little kid accidentally tripped over her foot when running past her. Tao Zi bent down to help her up and said, "Little girl, be careful."
The little girl is very cute, with round, rosy cheeks. She is wearing a bright red dress, which makes her look even more festive.
She tilted her head and looked at Tao Zi, stunned for a long time before she slowly said, "Thank you, sister."
There was a hint of dullness in his expression.
Tao Zi's heart trembled.
The child's mother came over and said, "Hey, kid, why did you fall down again?"
As she spoke, she took the child's hand and pulled her away, completely ignoring the fact that Tao Zi was still holding the little girl's hand.
Tao Zi looked at the mother and daughter leaving, and suddenly felt uneasy.
Li Xiu said: "These two people..."
She quickly added, "That's so rude."
His expression suddenly froze. It must be Yue Qingya who sent a message.
Li Xiu snatched the fox from Tao Zi's arms and stroked it viciously a few times. His heartbeat barely returned to normal. He smiled and said, "How about we go find an inn to rest first?"
Yue Qingya replied: "Yes."
Tao Zi looked at a vendor selling steamed buns and walked over to him. "Big brother, where is your inn?"
He hesitated for about three seconds before looking at her, and said with impatience in his tone, "Three cents for a bun."
She patiently asked again, "Where is the inn?"
The man slammed the table and yelled, "If you don't want to buy it, don't bother me!"
Tao Zi took a step back and said, "Sorry to bother you."
Li Xiu held the fox tightly in her arms and quietly looked at the other vendors around her.
They seemed not to have heard anything and continued to hawk their wares seriously.
But every vendor's eyes were either dull or looking at an empty space.
Something is wrong. Everything about this town is wrong.
She and Yue Qingya looked at each other, and they both walked beside Li Xiu at the same time, their vigilance raised to the highest level.
The three of them quickly arrived in front of an inn, and Yue Qingya stood in front and walked in.
A waiter saw someone coming in and slammed his hand on the table impatiently, yelling, "Why is there another person here? This is so annoying!"
Tao Zi suddenly clenched her fists. She knew this waiter - he used to be a member of the Yuniang Inn.
Yue Qingya laughed and said, "How come you, a waiter, are chasing people away?"
The waiter wiped the table in a bad mood and said, "Stay here if you want or not, if not, just get out. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Tao Zi said in a hoarse voice: "Waiter, where is your boss's wife?"
"I don't have a boss lady at my place, only..." The waiter paused imperceptibly, quickly looked up at her, and continued, "The boss."
The boss popped up at this moment: "Hey, there are guests, why don't you hurry up and entertain them!"
The waiter curled his lips and said casually, "Come on, come on. One room is enough for the three of you. How about Room 2?"
Tao Zi looked at the waiter. If she remembered correctly, she was in this room at that time.
Yue Qingya smiled and nodded: "Of course."
When they went upstairs, Tao Zi suddenly said, "Waiter, bring us some food."
He nodded impatiently and said, "Okay, okay, I get it. There's a lot to do."
The boss watched with a smile and said nothing.
When they got upstairs, Li Xiu used the soundproofing device without hesitation. Even so, his voice was still several degrees lower: "This town is too weird."
Tao Zi said, "I've never seen you so timid before."
"How can this be the same? This is the first time I've encountered such a strange thing."
The little fox jumped out of his arms and said angrily, "Even if you are scared, don't rub my fur."
He took a deep breath, calmed down, and patted its head: "I'm sorry."
Tao Zi looked at Yue Qingya: "Qingya, what do you think?"
After careful consideration, he said, "Something is very wrong. The people here are neither human nor living. They have the aura of a living person, but their behavior is completely strange."
Tao Zi lowered her eyes and said, "A living person is not necessarily a mortal."
The other two were shocked. Li Xiu asked, "Tao Mei, what do you mean?"
"Remember the demon cultivator in Xulan Palace?"
He felt cold all over and murmured, "But those are monks, and here are just ordinary people."
Yue Qingya asked in confusion: "A Zi?"
She briefly recounted what happened in Xulan Palace.
As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter knocked on the door.
Li Xiu removed the sound insulation and Tao Zi went to open the door.
The waiter reached out and pushed her away. She stumbled back a step, grabbed the waiter's right hand, and angrily said, "Why did you push me?"
He pulled his hand away, his tone still as impatient: "You're blocking my way."
He put the dessert plate on the table forcefully, bent down and introduced the desserts one by one, his saliva directly splashing onto the desserts.
Li Xiu silently took a step back, and Yue Qingya said, "Brother, there's no need to introduce yourself, we all know each other."
Tao Zi repeated: "We all know."
He then straightened up, looked at them, and said arrogantly, "Don't go out at night. I don't have the energy to open the door for you, humph."
Watching him slam the door and leave, Li Xiu took a deep breath and said, "This is the first time I've met a waiter like this. No matter how many ideas I had, I'm already angry."
Although he said this, there was no annoyance in his eyes.
Yue Qingya cast a soundproofing spell, looked at Tao Zi, and whispered, "I saw that waiter looked at you a few more times just now."
Tao Zi nodded: "I knew him before."
As she spoke, a piece of paper suddenly appeared in her hand.
