Chapter 148 The Flower Thief



Su Rui didn't get any more peach blossom wine, because the wine gourd given by the Rongcheng judge was already full of wine. The gourd looked small, but its interior had been expanded using the Sumeru mustard seed magic, creating a vast space that could hold more than a dozen large jars of wine. It was truly a must-have for a drunkard... or no, a wine immortal. After giving Su Rui such a large gourd, the judge was reluctant to give him any more.

Although we have peach blossom wine, we still need to prepare the ingredients for green blood wine.

So the judge and his little divine deer changed back into their original human form and walked towards Rongcheng with Su Rui and Chi Jiao.

This place was not far from Rongcheng. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Su Rui saw the city wall of Rongcheng.

Chengdu is vast, vast enough to encompass everything, like a vast ocean embracing a vast universe. Yet, it's neither majestic nor overly imposing. Like a giant cradle, it embodies a rich atmosphere of life. Merchants and common people stream in and out of the city gates, shoulder to shoulder, a constant stream of people. Inside and outside the gates, vendors set up shop, their cries and the aroma of food filling the air. The clamor of conversation is incessant, predominantly in the local dialect, a soft, soft cacophony that, while noisy, is never unpleasant.

When Su Rui saw a vendor selling candied haws, his appetite was immediately aroused. He took out some change and bought the whole candied haws stall.

Su Rui carried a straw candied haws stick and gave a string of candied haws to Chi Jiao, the judge and his mount, the little divine deer. Then he picked up a string of candied haws and started to bite it.

The sweet and sour taste of the candied haws was like a magic key that instantly opened the floodgates of his memory, making him feel as if he was back in the good old days before he traveled through time.

Brown sugar is not rare in this world. In the south, there are landlords who grow sugarcane on a large scale, so there are vendors selling candied haws.

It was probably the first time for Chi Jiao to eat this thing. After he finished eating, he reached out and picked a few strings from the straw that Su Rui was carrying. He gave two strings to the judge's little divine deer. The two guys ate with gusto.

Since the judge is a local god, he knows Chengdu very well.

It didn't take Su Rui long to buy up all the materials for refining the Green Blood Wine. Only Ai Qingcao asked several places but they were all out of stock.

Seeing that it was getting late, the judge took Su Rui to the most popular restaurant in Rongcheng, where they had a meal of Chengdu-style food. Su Rui was particularly impressed by two dishes, one was cold-mixed shepherd's purse, and the other was Bingxun fish.

It is said that these two dishes were also praised by Lu You, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. He wrote several poems to praise the deliciousness of shepherd's purse. One of the poems, titled "Eating Shepherd's Purse", also revealed the secret of processing shepherd's purse. In his poem "Thinking of Shu", he used the phrase "jade-like food like Emei chestnuts, golden minced fish like Bingxue fish" to praise its deliciousness.

After having a good meal and a few drinks, Su Rui was about to ask the waiter to come over and arrange a room for him to stay when he heard someone shouting outside the window.

Su Rui was curious and listened attentively for a while. It seemed that someone was shouting "Catch the rapist".

The judge sitting at the table seemed to have heard it as well, and his face looked a little unhappy.

"Shan Jun, there have been many thugs and murders in the city recently. The government and the City God have been cracking down on them. Please forgive me if this disturbs you!"

"It's okay! I heard that there is a group of evil people outside the city who like to kidnap beautiful women for their sexual pleasure. I wonder if it is related to this?" Su Rui remembered what Monk Zhiliao said and asked.

The judge sighed and said, "It's indeed related to this! Those demons are backed by those with profound magical powers. The City God is helpless and has no choice but to send more divine soldiers to defend the legal domain of Rongcheng! This method is safe, but the effect is not great!"

Su Rui could probably understand that he couldn't beat them, and he couldn't stop them either. This was probably the helplessness of the City God of Chengdu!

However, the righteous sects headed by Emei Sect have already taken action. Su Rui believes that this phenomenon will change soon. Of course, he did not think of revealing the plan of the sword fight between good and evil to the judge, but just comforted him with a few words like "the evil sect will be punished by heaven".

Just when Su Rui was still considering whether to join in, a man in black suddenly broke into the restaurant through the window carrying an unconscious woman.

When the man in black saw the red dragon, he actually laughed, threw the unconscious woman on his shoulder to Su Rui, and then stretched out his claws to grab the red dragon.

"Don't kill him!" Su Rui took the unconscious woman who had been abducted and shouted to Chi Jiao hurriedly.

The other side.

The judge was also shocked by the sudden change and shouted angrily: "How dare you, you thief!"

His shout was like thunderclap out of the blue, using his divine power. The small restaurant compartment was immediately filled with divine power. The man in black felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, with pressure like a mountain and a prison sweeping towards him.

The red dragon was covered in black and red flames. If it weren't for Su Rui's shout, the man in black might have been hit by the flames.

The man in black was obviously not a pushover. He recovered from the divine power in an instant. After realizing something was wrong, he immediately drew out the sword in his hand, turned around like a carp and killed Su Rui, who was closest to the red dragon and seemed to have no ability.

Seeing this, Su Rui summoned his true energy, using his finger as a sword. He unleashed a stream of condensed sword energy eight feet long, unleashing the Ape Immortal Piercing Moon technique from the Ape Sword Art, striking the black-clad man's longsword. This sword energy, like a dragon, bared its fangs and claws, lunged at the black-clad man's longsword, carrying a fierce aura and unparalleled power. Wherever the sword energy passed, the air ripped apart, emitting a sharp whistling sound, as if ripping the entire space apart.

clang...

With a crisp sound, the opponent actually condensed his sword energy and fought hard with the sword energy released by Su Rui. After all, Su Rui's skills were superior. With one blow, he knocked the opponent back three steps.
