'ah--!!!'

An extremely distorted and harsh roar exploded in the ears of the devil merchant and Wei Xun, accompanied by a noise like the sound of rustling paper, making people's brains buzz.

The giant paper man burning with golden red flames disappeared, and even the paper shell outside the minibus was burned away. The air was not only filled with the thick smoke of burnt paper, but also mixed with the smell of rancid meat.

The stench of grease. The charred and burnt residue is still stuck to the outer wall of the car, like balls of burnt and carbonized grease, with dirty gray-white paper ash stuck to it.

[Hey, you have offended Qianjiazhi and gained Qianjiazhi’s hostility!]

[Hey, you hurt Qianjiazhi and gained Qianjiazhi’s appreciation! 】

Different hotel prompts sounded in the minds of the devil businessman and Wei Xun. The devil businessman who was still watching Wei Xun came back to his senses instantly, his face changed slightly, and Wei Xun was also startled.

This giant paper figurine was originally called Qianjia Paper, but why would you be ‘appreciated’ if you hurt it?

Is it related to the team leader’s assessment tendency, or is it related to the ultimate goal of Qianjia Paper?

As long as he deceives the devil merchant, it will be clear whether what he gets is also Qianjiazhi's "appreciation".

Wei Xun's mind was spinning rapidly. On the surface, he retracted the tour guide flag with a smile. In front of the entire minibus passengers and the devil businessman, he breathed a sigh of relief and blew out the flames burning on the golden and red feathers.

"Sure enough, you have to use fire to deal with paper figures."

"Bang!"

The minibus made a lurch, and the body of the minibus, which had almost rolled over, slowly returned to its right position. During the process, the body of the minibus made a heart-breaking squeaking sound. The car was shaking violently, as if it would fall apart at any time.

"Bang!"

The minibus came right up and continued to drive forward again.

There was silence in the minibus. No one could have imagined that these two C-class tour guides could actually resolve a crisis of this level!

And that golden-red flame——

"Thanks to you, I hurt the soul of the paper man."

When everyone's eyes fell on Wei Xun, Wei Xun turned his head and looked at the devil merchant, and glanced thoughtfully at his tour guide flag that was stained gray and white by paper.

"Your flames are also very powerful."

The Devil Merchant said calmly, nodded reservedly, and put the tour guide's flag away silently. The two tour guides ignored the tourists' looks with different expressions at all, and started complimenting each other.

Obviously, they are trying to establish their authority.

But no one interrupted them to establish their authority now, and the passengers were all shocked and disbelieving in their own way.

"Hey, Xiaotian, have you seen it?"

Taoist Ban Ming lowered his voice and said to Bai Xiaotian with rare excitement: "That flame, look at that flame, did I miss it? It seems to be phoenix fire?"

"Xiaotian, what did your paper man say?"

"It's Phoenix Fire."

Bai Xiaotian also rarely changed his expression. He lowered his head and wiped his eyes, and a small bulge appeared in the collar of his Taoist robe. Then a small paper man crawled out from the collar in shock, and shed tears (confetti). It

Half of the body was slightly charred, as if it had been burned by flames.

"Sure enough, the paper man who can set you on fire from a distance is the Phoenix Fire!"

"It's incredible. This Bing250 is indeed well prepared. Look at his method when he got in the car before and look at it now. He is fully prepared, cough, cough, cough, cough."

Taoist Ban Ming spoke too quickly, and suddenly he had a heartbreaking cough, which made his face even paler, but he still couldn't hide his cheerful expression: "The paper man has to scold me when I see him, he really doesn't have martial ethics.

Got it!"

Bai Xiaotian tried to interrupt: "Deputy leader, let me tell you-"

"Don't interrupt, listen to me. Did you hear who Bing250 said just now?"

Taoist Ban Ming lowered his voice mysteriously: "An Xuefeng, he just said An Xuefeng! Look at how stupid Zhou Xiyang is! Infinite Heavenly Lord, there are many people here who have fire and water skills, but they can kill him in one go

All the paper outside was burned, and it is definitely not a mortal object. I guess he either has An Xuefeng's phoenix feathers in his hand, or An Xuefeng found him Qi Lecheng's golden crow feathers!"

"Deputy Corps——"

"No, no, no, the golden-red flames are definitely phoenix feathers. Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, he didn't have any means to activate the feathers, he just stabbed them out flatly. The flames were the protector of the phoenix fire who automatically counterattacked! Xiaotian,

You know what this means!"

The more excited he became, the lower his voice became. It was almost a whisper, and only the two of them could hear it.

"Phoenix Fire Protector, who dares to call himself An Xuefeng's master? A new tour guide can let the Dream Chaser and Shepherd Alliance work together to protect him. Is it just because he is the pioneer of the 30th North Latitude?

A token of the journey to the 30th North Latitude?"

At the end of the sentence, Taoist Ban Ming only made a mouth gesture.

‘Connect Tour Guide’

This Bing250 is most likely An Xuefeng’s contact tour guide!

Everyone knows that the Guitu team has never had a tour guide, not only publicly, but also privately. To be honest, the reason why people in the high-level elite circle feel that Guitu is almost done is not only because Guitu has not been able to add new people in the past few years.

What’s more, this brigade does not have a tour guide!

Anyone who has been to the 30th parallel north latitude journey clearly understands how important a tour guide is to a brigade. Fortunately for middle- and low-level travelers, the brigade traveling to the 30th parallel north latitude must have a tour guide. Only the return journey is an exception.

!

The returning team members have not gone crazy so far. Firstly, they are strong. Secondly, their brigade captain An Xuefeng is too strong and can bear some of the mental pollution. But An Xuefeng's recent situation is deteriorating day by day, which they all understand secretly.

fact.

Half-Life Taoist knows more, because their zombie-controlling Maoshan sect is a rare tourist who does not need much help from a tour guide. It can even be said that the more mental pollution there is, the stronger the cooperation between him and Yu Xiangyang will be.

The price is that Yu Xiangyang has become less and less human in the past two years, and his appearance has become increasingly barbaric. And as a half-life Taoist, his body is a bit weak, and he is usually quite unlucky.

But it is incredible to not be affected by mental pollution without the relief of a tour guide! Half-life Taoist is the leader in the corpse control flow, and the two teams of the Returning Metaphysics team have a good relationship. He has occasionally heard of An Xuefeng and their Wan team

Chatting. Mao Xiaole, who was returning home a few years ago, communicated with him a lot, just because he wanted to learn his method of controlling corpses.

They all want their passengers to take other wild roads to eliminate the influence of mental pollution. At that time, Taoist Ban Ming guessed that it was probably true that An Xuefeng could not contact the tour guide.

If the brigade leader cannot contact the tour guide, it will be impossible for the entire brigade to contact the tour guide.

But looking at it now...

"Captain An, he is so cruel."

Taoist Ban Ming sighed, looking at Zhou Xiyang who looked confused and even a little overwhelmed, with a hint of sympathy in his tone.

Things are getting serious.

If Bing250 is really An Xuefeng's tour guide, then it is very likely that he will be the only life-saving straw on the way home in the past ten years!

Darling, how could An Xuefeng be willing to let such a precious baby go on this extremely dangerous journey?

Those who sneak in with the power of sealing and want to kill Bing250 to seize the treasure are probably either because the forces behind them are not too afraid of returning home, or they are in the Western District far away from the Emperor Tiangao. Now kill Bing250,

Not only can he win the token of 30 degrees north latitude, but he will also kill the most likely only tour guide on the way home!

"Zhou Xiyang is going crazy."

Taoist Ban Ming sighed.

He must risk his life to protect Bing250!

But the situation is not that bad. Not many people know that An Xuefeng has the beast form of a phoenix. Even if they hear Bing 250 say 'An Xuefeng', they may not necessarily guess in which direction. After all, the Dream Chasers and others have done it before

So I asked for a guarantee of C250.

"Let's go back. If we can't help it, we have to help take a look."

Taoist Ban Ming patted Bai Xiaotian on the shoulder: "This paper man of yours has the same origin as Mao Xiaole's paper man, and you can be considered the cub of his paper man. You have also inherited his kindness and must repay it."

Mao Xiaole did not come to communicate in vain. He was good at paper control and left one of his natal paper figures in the metaphysics brigade for others to observe. As a result, when he finally left, although the half-life Taoist taught him without reservation, Mao Xiaole

He is suspicious and unruly by nature, and refuses to trust others absolutely. If he cannot raise his own zombies who are like-minded, he will not be able to learn the essence of controlling corpses from the Taoist Half Life Taoist.

But his paper figures were figured out by many Taoist priests of metaphysics.

An Xuefeng and Mao Xiaole didn't pay attention, saying that this was his fate, but Xuanxue Laoshan and the others had learned Mao Xiaole's core paper manipulative skills, so they always felt a little shortchanged.

This time, a small tour guide suspected to be on his way home came in, and they might be able to take action to protect him.

"Deputy commander, are you sure he needs our protection?"

Bai Xiaotian spoke in a calm tone and questioned: "Is he the one who protected us just now?"

"I suspect you are trying to argue with me."

Banming Dao said angrily: "After all, he is still weaker in terms of strength... Ahem, I'm too lazy to argue with you. By the way, what did you want to say just now? Have you handed over the paper money?"

Bai Xiaotian wanted to interrupt him several times just now, he must have something to say.

"Hand it over."

Bai Xiaotian said: "It's real money."

Taoist Ban Ming said cautiously: "No surprise?"

"No surprise."

"That's good, no wonder I can't feel the bad luck on my body."

Taoist Ban Ming said happily, and then wondered: "Then what do you want to say?"

"Just now, when Bing 250 and the Devil Merchant used the guide flag to drive away the paper monsters, the assassin led by Bing 250 captured the two paper monsters."

Bai Xiaotian said expressionlessly: "With the paper money we just handed over."

"What?!"

Bang.

The half-life Taoist trembled and broke off the fingers of the zombie's arm in his hand.

"Bing 250... No wonder it is an existence that Master Yin Yang Die attaches great importance to."

When Ban Ming Taoist and Bai Xiaotian were whispering, Yun Lianghan was also frightened, but not because the Bing250 flames destroyed the outer paper shell.

He saw the assassin taking the opportunity to capture two special five-star paper figures!

The assassin's movements were as easy as lifting a rabbit's ears, and he immediately carried away two special five-star paper figures!

Although Yun Lianghan saw that the two paper figures were in a strange state and did not resist at all, this also showed that either the assassin had done something wrong, or he realized that the special five-star paper figures were strange, so he took action at the right time.

And just now, this assassin had just killed 'him' once. This assassin had really killed Yun Lianghan, and he was even more impressed by it.

horrible.

A chill ran down Yun Lianghan's back, and he later felt apprehensive and fearful.

This assassin's strength is far more terrifying than he imagined!

In fact, before setting off, Yun Lianghan felt that his ability was not bad during this journey. Although it appeared to be a special two-star, in fact, he was deliberately stuck on the side and was only a few points away from reaching a special three-star.

Moreover, his title is special. It is a complete set of matching titles. When used together, it is even comparable to a golden title. Yun Lianghan has also assassinated high-level tourists and tour guides. He even killed a special five-star tourist at the cost of serious injury to himself.

!

So he thought that assassinating Bing250 would be a very simple matter.

Even just now Yun Lianghan was thinking that with his own strength, there would be no problem in being a lone wolf in this brigade waiting for opportunities.

But now, Yun Lianghan has a sense of crisis.

Yuntianhe is his best choice.

"Yun Tianhe, let's cooperate."

Yun Lianghan whispered seriously: "I don't want to go to the West District people, and you don't have an organization. Only by forming a temporary alliance can we survive the journey better..."

"You also think our tour guides in the East District are more powerful!"

Yun Lianghan: Which sentence did I mean this?

Yun Tianhe's cheeks were red and his eyes were sparkling. He looked at Wei Xun with admiration and babbled in a tone that sounded very fanatical and exciting:

"Tour guides are all great shepherds. We should respect the tour guides equally, but we are from the East District after all. Sure enough, I still prefer our tour guides from the East District. Lord, I hope you can forgive me."

He prayed for a while, and Yun Lianghan couldn't bear to listen to it for a while, but he was so disgusted by it.

What kind of tour guide will protect us, just like a shepherd protecting a lamb? Even a tour guide who seems to be of low rank is really powerful and should never be looked down upon.

Tour guides will eventually protect us. For example, God blesses his people, and we should also devote everything we have to tour guides just like we believe in gods.

Yun Tianhe is a crazy person.

Yun Lianghan was convinced. He simply didn't understand Yun Tianhe's brain circuit! This man obviously saw the assassin snatching away the two people. Yun Lianghan thought that this was the tour guide showing power to them, but Yun Tianhe thought that it was them.

They handed over paper money to the tour guide, so the tour guide was protecting them!

See, without paper money, you can't buy the paper man or get off the bus.

The great tour guide grabbed the paper man directly and allowed all the passengers on the bus to get off safely!

Why don’t tourists have any reason not to be grateful to their tour guides?

"I have long heard that the travelers raised by the Shepherd Alliance are different."

Yun Lianghan heard someone whispering next to him.

"My old swan, you are really good at finding sugar in the behavior of tour guides towards tourists."

Yun Lianghan glared at him angrily, and the silver-gray haired boy made a face at him. Yun Lianghan felt the gazes of others, and Yun Tianhe beside him was still praising the tour guide. He was not embarrassed, but Yun Lianghan's face

But it was hot, and a feeling of frustration and anger filled my heart.

Forget it, it’s okay not to cooperate! Yun Lianghan walked aside with a sullen face, wanting to stay away from Yun Tianhe and draw a clear line between him and this person.

"I think you are right. One person is weak and we should consider forming a temporary alliance."

But one word from Yun Tianhe made Yun Lianghan look back.

Yes, cooperation is necessary. After all, he and Yuntianhe are single-person households, and there is a high possibility that they will be arranged to live together when staying.

No matter if they form an alliance early, Yun Lianghan doesn't plan to take action against Bing 250 again until he discovers the assassin's true strength, and there isn't much conflict between him and Yun Tianhe.

"Um."

Yun Lianghan still felt that it was a bit embarrassing to stand with Yun Tianhe, so he only replied with the word "hmm" reservedly. After all, Yun Tianhe is a special three-star, and a passenger who can open the seat by himself with props, it is absolutely impossible to cooperate with him

Not a loss.

But the next second, Yun Lianghan regretted it.

"You think so too, right? Our i Cui guide team should take the initiative to protect the interests of tour guides!"

What is the i Cui Guidance Group?

Yun Lianghan was at a loss, and then he heard Yun Tianhe say seriously:

"The first thing we have to do is to get Director C's paper money back."

The paper money in the passengers' hands should finally be handed over to the two special five-star paper men.

Bing 250's men captured the two special paper figures.

Therefore, the paper money in the passenger's hand should be handed over to Bing250.

These people didn't pay it because they haven't thought of it yet. It is the responsibility of the i Cui Guidance Team to remind them and help Bing250 recover the paper money.

"I wonder when I will be qualified to call him Director Cui."

Yun Tianhe was full of expectations, and he said, crossing himself on his chest.

"Green Gate."

When Yun Lianghan struggled to straighten out Yun Tianhe's thoughts, he felt bad.

Lord Yin Yang Butterfly, you are right.

After being disbelieving and irritable, Yun Lianghan felt a little depressed.

This journey is indeed difficult.

“This additional function is nice.”

Over there, after confirming that Yu and Hui had successfully captured the two paper figures, Wei Xun stood next to the devil merchant, and they both looked at each other's brooches.

The additional function on the Devil Merchant Tour Guide Brooch is 'foreigner'.

[Tour Guide Brooch (Silver Level 3, Four Stars): Additional Function "Foreign Guest"]

[This city is very welcoming to guests from outside. When you encounter difficulties, the 'old people' in the city will be eager to help you - but be careful, whether you and your brigade are qualified to receive their help?

Still need to pass a small test】

"It's not an additional cooperative function, it's complementary."

The devil businessman frowned. The two titles "Old Beijing" and "foreigner" are actually contradictory to each other.

‘Only the same ‘old Beijing’ can be accepted by the old people in this city’

‘Outsiders can get help from ‘old people’ in the city’

It can be said that it is impossible for foreigners and old Beijing to exist at the same time.

But the advantage is that they can more flexibly use the functions of the brooch to go through this journey.

For example, when I'm on the minibus now, it's Wei Xun's brooch "Old Beijing" that works.

Later, if you encounter an "old man" making things difficult for you or encounter a problem, you can use the additional function of the "Devil Merchant" brooch.

"It seems that we will have to work closely together on this journey."

The devil businessman handed the brooch to Wei Xun and extended his hand to him like a gentleman: "Xiao Cui."

As he spoke, his eyes swept over the figure of a woman also wearing a light blue cloak standing behind Wei Xun, saying with profound meaning, "Your puppet is very good."

"I also think my puppet is pretty good."

Wei Xun shook hands with the devil merchant, and they were separated at the first touch.

"We're almost at the station and you haven't finished taking the roll yet. I should also check on the passengers."

"Um."

The Devil Merchant looked at him deeply and continued to call the names. This time no one was interrupting, and everyone cooperated in the roll call.

There were ten tourists in total. On October 10th, Yun Tianhe and Yun Lianghan were all from a single family.

Half-Life Taoist Cen Qin and Bai Xiaotian, Zhou Xiyang and Mei Keer from the Crimson Brigade are two families.

The remaining three West Enders are a family of three.

“We will stay at the characteristic courtyard hotel in Leigu Hutong, which only provides two-person rooms and three-person family rooms.”

The devil businessman reminded him businesslikely: "If solo travelers know each other and are willing to live together, they can register with me. If not, they will be randomly assigned."

"Both of us together."

Yun Lianghan raised his hand impatiently, but in fact, the pace he walked toward the Devil Merchant revealed a vague impatient energy - he really didn't want to stand with Yun Tianhe and beg for money from Bing250!

"good."

The devil businessman then looked at October 10th: "Ms. October 10th, which two-person family do you want to share a room with..."

"I only live with women."

October 10th interrupted his words and said coldly. She was dressed in smart clothes and a bamboo hat. The hanging black veil covered her face, but her beauty and coldness could still be vaguely seen.

"Man, it affects the speed at which I draw my sword."

Hearing what she said, Zhou Xiyang and others all smiled helplessly. Taoist Ban Ming whispered, "You have an umbrella in your scabbard, how can you say you are drawing a sword?" but he did not dare to say it loudly.

Although October 10th is mysterious and low-key in the East District, she is also quite famous. It is said that every time she is in the brigade, several men will die. I don't know whether it is true or not.

"this……"

The Devil Merchant subconsciously glanced at the assassin following Bing250, and then looked toward the travelers in the West District with a gesture:

"There are only two ladies in the brigade. You should ask Miss Rosalind for her opinion."

"I have no problem."

A gentle and melodious female voice rang out, also speaking Chinese, with clear articulation, like a lark singing. Rosalind is the youngest of the three West Enders. She has snow-white skin, deep amber eyes, and long brown curly hair.

Tie up, the smoky gray wolf ears between the hair are very soft and bring out her tenderness.

"Mia——"

The other black-haired West Ender who had remained silent and looked a little cold and lonely frowned. He also had a pair of amber eyes, but looked sharp and cold against the backdrop of his black hair.

But when Rosalin clapped her hands, the man stopped making any sound.

Mia Rosalin, Olena Rosalin.

The werewolf siblings are respectively one-star and two-star special.

"Mia can go if she wants."

The strong man with red hair and green eyes laughed and easily tore off the sticky paper shell on his body with one hand!

"We werewolves are not someone to be trifled with."

Augustus, the most powerful three-star werewolf, is obviously the leader of the western region of his brigade.

"The big guy outside the car window just now...I saw it."

After he said these words, the expressions of several people in the car suddenly changed, and even the devil businessman frowned.

Wei Xun looked back at him.

Werewolf Augustus.

Wei Xun took note of it.

Wei Xun had been thinking before that the giant paper man outside the car window should not only be seen by people like him who took the team leader's assessment.

If that's the case, and the giant paper man is only targeting him, it doesn't count as a team leader assessment.

In the final analysis, the ultimate test of a tour leader is the tour guide's leadership ability. Whether he can lead the tour group to exert extraordinary strength and defeat monsters that exceed the personal strength of the passengers.

Therefore, if Wei Xun finally chooses the mourning paper man as the team leader's mission tendency, then he should be the one leading the passengers to complete the giant paper man challenge in the end.

So there are two possibilities for passengers not being able to see the giant paper figures.

The first is that Wei Xun has not yet completely determined his mission orientation, and the team leader assessment has not officially begun.

The second is that some people are too weak in comparison, so they cannot be seen.

Just like the Half-Life Taoists.

Only travelers who are strong enough can truly notice the giant paper man.

As an indescribable monster, of course not everyone can perceive it.

The stronger the person, the more he will be mentally polluted. The weak will not be mentally attacked because they cannot see it at all.

If the werewolf Augustus was really aware of the giant paper man outside the window, either he was hiding his strength or he had a special title.

"Thank you."

Bai Xiaotian nodded to Wei Xun, who just now tore off the paper shell that was stuck to him.

"It is also the duty of a tour guide to help tourists."

Wei Xun nodded. In the chaos just now, all the passengers had leaned out of the window to tear off the paper shells stuck on the outside of the minibus. Their bodies were more or less stained with dried paper pulp and confetti, and they looked like a

A paper man.

These things stick very firmly like paint, even if they are on clothes, but the most terrifying thing is when they stick to skin. It is almost integrated with the skin, and when you tear it off, it will be a bloody piece.

The passengers on this bus are all veterans, each has his or her own methods, and is very methodical and skillful. There is no need to worry about the tour guide.

However, Bai Xiaotian handled it a little slower. There were too many paper scraps on his body, and some of them even stuck to his skin. The paper scraps stuck to his body extremely tightly, and even if he had a half-life Taoist to help him, he would be a bit anxious.

After Wei Xun took action, the tour guide flag swept by, but the paper shells began to loosen, making it much easier to clean. When Wei Xun encountered 'Bai Xiaotian', he could clearly feel that the mental pollution on the scraps of paper was trying to attack him like a parasite.

It is drilled into the body, which is why the paper scraps stick extraordinarily firmly.

But after Wei Xun came into contact with Bai Xiaotian, these mental pollutions were easily eliminated. It was not just Wei Xun's fault, but the perfect cooperation between 'Bai Xiaotian' and him. This was a very subtle feeling, and Jin An

Xuefeng's mental illusion is different.

Not that close, but still as harmonious as water and milk. Wei Xun only played a guiding and comforting role, while Bai Xiaotian spontaneously crushed the mental pollution.

Is this the spiritual connection with the returning team?

"Oh, Xiaotian, your strength is still low. I don't know how you have the courage to embark on this journey."

Taoist Taoist Half-Life was chattering beside him, his tone a little worried. The strength of the special one-star was at the bottom of the brigade, and Bai Xiaotian was indeed not safe.

"It would be great if Brother Xiangyang was here. Tsk, cough, what, Director Cui."

Ban Ming Taoist and Wei Xun are close. For the tour guide, it is undoubtedly a sign of closeness. The tour guide is also happy to hear this.

Calling him "Director Bing" seemed too polite and rude before, and calling him "250" seemed too stupid. When Wei Xun was communicating with the devil businessman, Taoist Ban Ming listened and knew that Bing 250 must have a "Xiao Cui"

Well-known title.

But men definitely don't like to hear the word 'little', and it sounds like calling someone a junior. The devil businessman is not particular about it, but the Taoist Taoist who wants to have a good relationship with Wei Xun is.

He immediately changed his words and said to Wei Xun with a smile:

"Director Cui, cough, cough, cough, if you want to sell those two paper figures, please consider me."

"The deputy regiment doesn't need to..."

"Shut up."

Ban Ming Taoist pressed Bai Xiaotian's head and smiled at Wei Xun: "If you don't want to sell the whole thing, even the parts will do. The price I offer will guarantee your satisfaction."

Bai Xiaotian controls paper. If he can get special five-star paper and fuse it into his paper figurine, it will also enhance his strength.

"Okay, I will give priority to you."

Wei Xun guessed who Taoist Ban Ming was buying the paper for. He looked at Bai Xiaotian and said with a smile:

"But I'm not short of points."

"If you want to buy paper... you can exchange it for some information that interests me."

Suddenly, the minibus stopped.

"Leigu Hutong Station, here we are."

Amidst the harsh squeaking sound, both the front and rear doors were opened, and a stream of cold and damp water vapor came from the outside, mixed with a faint smell of decay.

[This journey is an extremely dangerous journey, please follow the tour guide closely and complete all attractions on time!]

This reminder sounded again, especially on 'on time and on time', it seemed to have an added emphasis.

The passengers had different expressions, all of which were remembered in their hearts.

"Let's go."

Taking a deep breath, the devil businessman took the tour guide flag and got out of the car first with a solemn expression. As the main tour guide, he was going to communicate with the hotel and receive the room card.

As the assistant guide, Wei Xun will lead the tourists to wait outside and explain some local customs.

"Passengers can wait in the car first, it's raining outside."

Wei Xun watched the figure of the devil merchant disappear into the deep alley, and then looked away. It was raining in the imperial capital at the end of September. The continuous autumn rain was not heavy, but very dense. If you didn't hold an umbrella, you would get wet very quickly.

But the passengers did not stay in the car. Instead, they all got out of the car and looked at the surrounding environment. All the confetti and snow that had been all over the sky disappeared, as if they had returned from a dream to reality. However, except for them, there was no other person around the alley.

Pedestrians, there was no sound of traffic in the distance, only the patter of rain.

Compared with the wilderness of the snow-capped mountains and grasslands, traveling in a bustling city, with scenes that can be seen in daily life, will bring deeper psychological pressure to people, and will subconsciously remind people of more terrifying and horrifying ancient scenes.

Legends and urban ghost stories.

"It is said that during the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di wanted to build a capital city in this area. But this is Youzhou, a sea of ​​bitterness, where evil dragons that can turn rivers upside down live. Ordinary cities cannot suppress evil dragons and cannot take root here."

"So Liu Bowen and Yao Guangxiao made suggestions and worked together to design an 'Eight-Armed Nezha City' in Youzhou, Bitter Sea. Although it is a legend, the structure of the old Beijing city exactly fits the body of the Eight-Armed Nezha."

Wei Xun said: "Zhengyang Gate is Nezha's head, the two wells in Zhengyang Gate are Nezha's eyes*, the five internal organs we just passed are the center of the eight-armed Nezha's five internal organs, and the ten entrances further ahead are

The mouth of his esophagus - of course, with the reconstruction from generation to generation, these places can no longer be seen."

With the renovation, these places can no longer be seen, so what were the things they saw in the places they passed before?

The hazy sky covered the building with a layer of darkness, and the sound of the pattering rain seemed to return to the ancient capital. Even Wei Xun's voice became weird, like the distorted voice of the announcer on the radio.

"The north-south avenues on both sides of the Wu Zang Temple, taken together, are Nezha's spine, and those branches and alleys extending outward are Nezha's ribs."

Wei Xun was joking, but what he said was horrifying: "We are currently inside the right half of the Eight-Armed Nezha's body, and the place where we will live tonight happens to be one of his ribs."

Leigu Hutong, Rib Alley. The cold wind blew by, the shadows of the trees swayed, and the buildings in front of them seemed to come alive, watching their arrival.

"The room card has been processed."

A quarter of an hour later, when Wei Xun had already begun to introduce to the tourists the must-try hot-pot mutton and sesame sauce biscuits in this city, the devil merchant finally walked out of Leigu Hutong. He remained calm and led the tourists with a tour guide flag.

They walked towards the alley, but Wei Xun was keenly aware that there were irregular tear marks on the hem of the devil merchant's cloak.

It was like being bitten by something.

The Leigu Alley was very wide when you first walked through it, but the further you walked in, the narrower it became, really like a rib. The devil merchant led the way, and Wei Xun held the line behind him. His heart moved slightly, and he subconsciously looked back, but

I saw a short figure passing by at the entrance of the alley.

Like a child running past.

But how could there be normal children in a place like this?

“This courtyard hotel is located in the quiet Leigu Hutong and has a history of more than 500 years.”

Finally arriving at the destination, the devil merchant opened the street door and walked in first.

"This is a wish-fulfilling door."

Taoist Ban Ming and Bai Xiaotian fell behind the brigade and walked beside Wei Xun. Along the way, Taoist Ban Ming carefully looked at the surrounding environment, not missing every plant or tree, and took photos and records from time to time. Naturally, the speed was slower.

Some.

"There is no such thing as wishful thinking on the wishful door."

There are many styles of doors facing the street in courtyard houses. The door in front of you is the Ruyi Gate. However, its door does not have the word "Ruyi" or the pattern of Ruyi carved on it. Instead, it has a vague rectangular pattern.

This made Taoist Ban Ming's expression remain solemn.

It wasn't until he saw the door couplets engraved on the door panels that he relaxed a little. In the old courtyards, the more elegant door panels facing the street would have door couplets engraved on them, most of which were couplets such as 'Loyalty will be passed down to the family, and poems and books will help the world'.

But the door couplets engraved on the door panel in front of me are different.

Mia, the werewolf girl in the West District, also walked slowly. The camera in her hand looked more advanced than the one in the hands of the Half-Life Taoist, and she took more and more detailed photos. Apparently, in the team there, she was also doing the job of collecting information.

It's a job. When she saw the door couplet, Mia's expression changed slightly, she immediately put down the camera and stopped taking pictures.

"Hey Mia, you're too slow."

At this moment, the red-haired werewolf Augustus turned and walked back to the door. Mia walked too slowly and was the weakest one, but she was smart and had a deeper understanding of Chinese culture. Augustus saw it at a glance

If she doesn't arrive, turn around and look for her immediately.

Noticing Mia's gaze, Augustus glanced at the door panel, showing a hint of surprise.

"There are also words engraved on this door? 'Wealth at first sight', 'Peace in the world'?"

Seeing the half-life Taoist with a long face standing nearby, he remembered that he had said before, "You stupid guy doesn't understand Chinese culture." Augustus sneered and said proudly: "'Making money' and 'Taiping', I know, in China

The words have a very good meaning."

"It seems like you don't have to worry too much if you live here."

"puff."

Taoist Ban Ming couldn't help but laugh: "Yes, yes, yes, it's a very good idea."

Taoist Ban Ming said cheerfully: "It's so good that the seventh and eighth masters are guarding the door for us."

After saying that, he shook his head and led Bai Xiaotian into the door.

"Pooh! Little dwarf."

Augustus waved his fist at Taoist Half Life's back, with some dissatisfaction and depression on his face: "What are you talking about? Did I say something wrong?"

"Augustus."

Mia sighed helplessly: "Making money at the first sight and peace in the world are the words on the official hat of black and white."

"Black and white are impermanent...you can be regarded as the Chinese God of Death."

"With the threat of death, it is safe for us to live here. But at the same time, we are also equivalent to the 'souls' marked by death."
