Chapter two hundred and ninety nine
As a rich man, Su Zhirou naturally bought every type, happily asked the servant to help him take it, intending to play with it slowly after going home.
Du Bai also bought one and planned to go back and study the structure inside. Such exquisite and special things are not visible even on modern earth. Even if it is just a decoration in a study, it is quite interesting.
The stall owner who made a big business naturally smiled very happily and gave them a little cheaper, so there is no need to repeat this.
After a few people walked around for a while, the two girls were also a little tired. After all, this crowded and lively situation was crowded and busy, and they had to pay attention to many novel things like the ones just now. Every time they walked, it was quite physically exhausting, so they planned to return and wait until the night to continue strolling.
The real lively scene will only begin after nightfall. Whether it is a beautiful lantern festival, various performances, or some activities such as guessing riddles, they are particularly interesting, and you still need to retain some physical strength.
If you are exhausted during the day, wouldn’t you be able to stay at home and go anywhere?
But on the way back, Du Bai accidentally saw an inconspicuous place in the corner of the alley, with a strange talisman pasted, and his attention instantly focused on it.
"This talisman..."
He paused slightly, thought for a while and turned to smile at the people, saying, "Zhirouyinger, you guys go home first. I saw a friend who wanted to say hello..."
"Friend?" Su Zhirou looked back at him, with a little confused look in her eyes, but she didn't think much about it, just asked casually, "Then let's wait for you, right?"
"No need." Du Bai felt a little warm, and he reached out to rub her little head, but she carefully avoided him and glared at him, and couldn't help but withdrew his hand back with a funny look.
He turned his head and whispered to the servant who had been following the silent servant, "Protect them and don't let the suspicious people approach."
"Yes, lord... son-in-law!" The servant focused his head, looking like a loyal hound, as if anyone dared to come would let the other party go without returning.
"Okay, go."
Du Bai waved his hand, watching their backs gradually disappearing from the crowd, gradually retracted their gaze and landed on the inconspicuous talisman again.
"Why is there a talisman here?"
Du Bai walked over slowly, squatted down and lifted the talisman paper and looked at it. The spell on it was something he had never seen before, but it felt familiar. His intuition told him that the talisman was a bit inappropriate. Looking at the bright red blood stains on it, you could probably guess that it might be related to some evil magic.
"Let's take it back together and study it."
Thinking of this, he reached out and tore off the talisman.
But after discovering this talisman, he soon found traces of similar talismans elsewhere, and even in places he hadn't noticed along the way!
"There are quite a lot!"
He felt a sudden shock in his heart, and he felt as if he had discovered something amazing.
"Does someone want to make trouble at a temple fair, like when tens of thousands of people gather together?"
Thinking about it, I feel it is unlikely. If such a terrifying thing as a massacre of the city really happens in such a prosperous era, it will definitely shock the whole world. Not only the court, but also many masters and living Buddhas among the people will gather to kill demons and eliminate demons. At that point, I am afraid that even my own ghost king clone will not be able to get benefits.
There shouldn't be any demon who would do such stupid things that would make people happy for a while!
Despite this, Du Bai decided to be cautious and tore off all the talismans that could be discovered, so as not to leave any troubles.
But just as he bent down to tear a spell, he suddenly noticed a familiar breath behind him. When he turned around, he accidentally discovered a Thirteenth Aunt who had not seen for a long time!
It was the strange woman who could invite magic skills that I saw at the banquet held by the God-Seeking Association.
But what shocked him was that he didn't know what the other party invited was "what god"...
I thought this person had gone somewhere else, but I didn't expect to meet again here at this time!
What made him concentrate slightly was that the ominous aura on the other party's body increased instead of decreasing during this period, as if just getting close, it gave people a feeling of discomfort all over.
"Young Master Du!"
The other party had obviously seen him, or it was for him, and she had already seen him tearing off the spell.
She walked slowly through the crowd and asked with confusion: "Young Master Du, these talismans are what I pasted. I wonder why you want to tear them off?"
"Did you post it?" Du Bai was even more shocked.
He thought that the evil cultivator came from somewhere, and planned to make trouble today, but he didn't expect that the messenger was her!
"Not bad." The Thirteenth Aunt nodded, "To be honest, Mr. Du, there is a terrible demon lurking around here with the desire to harm people. These talismans were drawn by me after asking the emperor for instructions, so they can protect the people here from harm!"
"Demon?" Du Bai was stunned when he heard this. Is there any other demon in Yuanyang City that harms others besides the spider spirit before? Why didn't he notice it at all?
Realizing that there were some articles in this, he rubbed his fingers slightly and used force. Then he spread his hand in front of Thirteenth Aunt. He saw that there were only a pile of fragments of talisman paper in his palm, and he said regretfully: "I'm really sorry. I don't know that these talismans are of great use. I just tore them apart."
"This..." The Thirteenth Aunt couldn't help frowning and then sighed, "Well, let's draw some when I go back."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Du Bai suddenly spoke, "Wait, Thirteenth Aunt, I am quite interested in the devil you just mentioned. If it is convenient, can you tell me?"
He looked curious, and it was not very strange that he had the performance he had when he met before.
Thirteenth aunt paused, looked around and nodded slightly, "Of course it's OK, but there are too many mortals here, so it may not be appropriate to avoid panic."
"Please follow me." Du Baishen nodded as if it was right, then waved his hand and asked.
After a while, the two of them arrived at the private room of a teahouse. The Thirteenth Aunt did not hide it anymore, but told the story roughly.
After all, in her eyes, Mr. Du is also a kind person with righteousness. If you can make friends, it is not a bad thing. I just don’t know if she is intentional. She did not tell her where the demon was or what identity she was. Maybe she was worried that Du Bai would take the risk of contact because of curiosity. Simply put, it was Mr. Liu Xiuping of the Liu family who told her about it.
"I see."
Du Bai nodded slightly as if thinking, noting the two key points in his mouth.
