When the little black dog saw that I was so obsessed with his appearance after turning back into human form, his eyes instantly lit up like bright stars.
He was so happy that his tail was almost wagging, even though he had turned into a human and had no tail.
But the excitement was not diminished at all, and he grinned and said, "Master, if you like to see it, I will show it to you every day."
After saying that, he deliberately raised his head and glanced at Su Qiyuan provocatively.
Looking at the childish appearance of these two people, I was both angry and amused, and hurried to smooth things over: "Stop making trouble, we still have business to attend to."
At this moment, I frowned slightly, my brain working rapidly, then raised my eyes to look at my second brother, and said solemnly and seriously: "Second brother, you, Sister Yanran, and Su Qiyuan, wait for us here first."
I'll take the little black dog and go to the front with Senior Shangguan to check the situation. We'll come back to meet you after we've figured out the situation.
My second brother listened to what I said and responded, "Little sister, don't worry, I'll be here to watch over you, nothing will go wrong."
When Su Qiyuan heard this, he opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
I was quick to notice and quickly raised my hand to interrupt him. My eyes swept over his injured body and I said in an unquestionable tone, "You have injuries that haven't healed yet and need time to recover. Don't bother with me."
Just wait for us here. The three of us will go ahead and check it out.
Su Qiyuan pursed his lips, pondered for a moment, and finally compromised. His eyes were full of worry, and he gently warned: "Ling'er, you have to be careful. Your own safety is the most important thing."
My heart warmed slightly, I nodded, and immediately greeted the little black dog.
The little black dog led the way in front, and Senior Shangguan and I followed closely behind.
Along the way, we passed through dense grass and crossed rugged paths, and soon arrived at the little black dog's territory.
There was a market not far ahead, and as we got closer, the noise became clearer.
Among the bustling crowd, all kinds of spiritual beasts shuttled among them, which was very strange.
Most of them are human-like in shape, and are dressed in coarse linen or silk.
But the tail behind it was shaking and swaying, revealing its identity.
Some spirit beasts have a pair of furry ears on their heads, which shake from time to time, alertly capturing the sounds around them.
Some of them have already transformed into human faces, with delicate skin and lively eyes and eyebrows, but when they open their mouths inadvertently, the fangs exposed still reveal their wildness.
On both sides of the market, there are various stalls. The stall owner selling herbal medicine is obviously an old turtle spirit. It slowly stretches out its scaly hands to grab spiritual herbs for customers.
Not far away, a fox spirit with a graceful figure and a sweet smile was fiddling with the pearl and jade jewelry on the stall with its soft claws, attracting the attention of people around.
At this moment, I was completely shocked, and my feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, standing there, and I had no idea what was going on.
Deep in the little black dog's territory, there is such a market. It is like stepping into the animal kingdom in a cartoon, with strange creatures wearing clothes and being half human and half beast everywhere.
The sense of novelty came like a tide, but it was difficult to hide the slight fear in my heart. This strange and fantastic environment was full of unknowns.
Just as I was feeling anxious, the little black dog said, "Master, this market opens every three days and it's very lively."
After that, he led us to a tea stall.
As soon as I got close, the rich fruity aroma wrapped in hot air hit me in the face and penetrated into my nostrils.
I couldn't help but take a deep breath, curious about what kind of fruit could emit such an alluring aroma.
The little black dog shouted to the fox demon stall owner, "Give us three bowls of fruit juice."
The fox demon's ears twitched slightly, and he responded with a smile before turning around and going about his business.
The little black dog enthusiastically led us to sit down at the wooden table of the tea stall. With a smile on his face and sparkling eyes, he looked at me and said, "Master, the most delicious thing in our market is this fruit treasure. You can try it later."
After a while, the fox demon came over gracefully, holding three bowls of fruit juice steadily in her slender hands.
I took a closer look and was surprised to find that the fruit bowl was actually a polished round shell.
Several fresh and juicy, slightly fluorescent grass jelly plants are delicately inlaid on the edge of the shell, making the fruit even more tempting, and the fruit fragrance goes straight into the nose.
I couldn't wait to scoop up a piece and put it in my mouth. In an instant, the sweet taste bloomed on my taste buds, and the fruity aroma and sweetness blended perfectly. It was sweet but not greasy, and the fragrance lingered between my teeth.
I was immersed in it, closing my eyes to savor it, when suddenly, the little black dog yelled angrily, "You fox demon, get away from me!"
I suddenly opened my eyes and saw the fox demon's white hand on the little black dog's shoulder.
The little black dog reacted very quickly, raised his hand to grab it, and threw it away with force. The fox demon staggered and fell to the ground in a mess.
She didn't get angry at all, and stood up quickly, still smiling, and said coquettishly, "Sir, I really couldn't help it. I've never seen such a handsome guest in this market."
The little black dog looked disgusted and didn't want to pay any more attention. He turned to look at Senior Shangguan who was trying to hold back his laughter and said anxiously, "Do you still want to eat? If you laugh again, you can't eat!"
Senior Shangguan looked at the little black dog and said, OK, OK, OK, I won’t laugh anymore.
At this moment, there were a few "clang" sounds at the neighboring table, and several tall wolf demons with a wild aura sat down.
The leader yelled at the top of his lungs, "Give us five bowls of fruit juice! Hurry up!"
After a while, several bowls of fruit juice were served on the table. The wolf demons drank it in big gulps and chatted excitedly.
A wolf demon with gray-black fur and cunning eyes said mysteriously in a low voice, "Would you like to go to the royal court tonight?"
"I'm definitely going!" Another wolf demon with messy hair and a missing piece of his left ear put the bowl down heavily, his eyes full of resentment.
"We have to go and see how that vicious and heartless queen could have the heart to harm our king. Fortunately, the Right Envoy discovered it, otherwise our territory would be in trouble."
"Is there any hidden secret in this?" A wolf demon with a slightly thin figure and doubtful eyes whispered.
"What could be the hidden secret?" The gray-black wolf demon snorted coldly, then raised his voice and said with a look of certainty, "Didn't you hear what the Right Envoy said?"
The Dog Queen was originally snatched from outside by the old Dog King. Over the years, she has secretly joined forces with the tribesmen to seize our territory. Now her true colors have finally been revealed.
The more I listened, the more I felt something was wrong. I thought to myself, this "Queen of Dogs" they were talking about sounded a bit like the little black dog's mother.
Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Heijia stood up and shouted at the wolf demons, "What you just said, is it true?"
When the wolf demons heard the noise, they all turned around and looked the little black dog up and down, their eyes full of scrutiny.
Finally, a wolf demon with a long scar on his face spoke impatiently, "It must be true! We didn't make this up. Every demon in the market knows about it now."
