Chapter 233： Spirit

Chapter 234

... When Li Zhe returned, it was already a quarter of an hour later. Xia Fan also packed up his things and rode out of the Privy Council with the fox demon and Shan Hui. Recently, because of the many things he has to deal with, the frequency of his overnight stays at Fengyang Villa has also increased. "Master Xia, I don't quite understand," Shan Hui asked on the way out of the city, "Since the bureau is short of people, and many women in the drunk brothel know how to read and write, why don't you just seal the brothel, Are they all brought to the house?" "Because not everyone is willing to leave a familiar place, even if there is a cage." Xia Fan whispered. "...Will it?" Shan Hui showed a hint of incomprehension. "Even when I go out, there are people watching. I can't run two steps freely. I feel bored in a place like this for a day." "Silly dog, what's so strange about this." "It's true." Li pressed Dou Li, "When you are hungry for ten days and a half, you will understand naturally." "That's the truth," Xia Fan nodded, "No matter how bad the drunk brothel is, it's not good for the drunk bros to at least be inside. Don’t worry about food and clothing. Most of the women were sold in when they were children. Many people should remember the taste of starvation and want them to climb the courtyard wall to see the strange world outside. Such an easy thing." In a sense, strangeness is no different from fear. "Oh, that's really a shame..." "So Miss Liu came here just right." Xia Fan smiled slightly, "They didn't dare to step over the courtyard wall. Another reason is that those who did this have suffered severely. Punishment. Even if the New Deal is promulgated, the inertia of the past will still exist. To reverse this situation, setting an example is undoubtedly the most effective way." "They will see with their own eyes that now that no one dares to step across the courtyard wall. They will be punished, and they will get rich rewards. Although the outside is still a strange place, at least they have a goal that can be imitated, or... a lighthouse. The road Miss Liu walked will become a feasible one. Choice." "That's it." Shan Hui shook his tail suddenly. "There will definitely be people staying in Zuiqinglou, but as long as one decides to leave, one role model will be added. These examples will affect not only Zuiqinglou, but the entire Shenzhou." Xia Fan said with emotion, "This The process will definitely attract countless resistances, so the bureau must put the'will' in the most important position when recruiting people. Only with the support of the will can the spread be unstoppable." "It's like a flame on the grassland. "Li raised his eyebrows. The latter moved slightly in his heart, "...Yes, this is the fire of a prairie prairie fire." The two looked at each other for a long time, until a fat black-eyed white cat climbed onto the fox's shoulder and yawned at Xia Fan. The expression seemed to hinder the confrontation. However, in the next second, Li raised the back of the cat's neck angrily and threw it out. "Meow——!" Xia Fan couldn't help being stunned. Wild cats are generally extremely afraid of life. How did this guy get close to the moving mount and climb onto the fox monster? What's even more incredible is that the fat cat did not turn around and ran away after being thrown out, but landed on a flexible backflip and continued to chase the horse. "When did you raise a cat?" "I didn't have that idle time." Li sighed, "This is a cat spirit." "Cat spirit?" Xia Fan was startled, and suddenly remembered that there is a special species. Counted in the classification of monsters and ghosts, Li also mentioned their title very early-Jing, or Jingwei. "What do you mean... this cat is the sensation among cats?" "It's not wrong to understand this way." Li nodded, "Although it is not common, spirits do exist. Master said that they also have Natural spells, but the effect is much worse than that of alchemy." "Can they talk?" "Qi can't improve the intelligence of spirits, they are essentially animals." Xia Fan turned his head and looked at the cat's spirits curiously. Eyes, the latter also grinned his teeth at him, it didn't seem to be inhumane. "Is it in Jinxia City before? Why did it suddenly cling to you?" "This is the proof that Master Li's ability is growing." Shan Hui said, "Just like humans tame horses and cattle and sheep, fairies also do Natural affinity. The stronger the ability, the more essence you can attract... However, this is the first time I have seen a cross-border influence like Master Li." "Cross-border?" Xia Fan smacked, "Jing Are there any classifications?" "Of course, my lord." Shanhui affirmed, "For example, Naoqing and Naohong, the spirits they can tame are mostly aquatic, because it is said that ghosts originate from water. Master Li is a fox demon, so he should only The ability to control the foxes... I didn't expect even the cats to be attracted. As expected, the boss who wants to become the head of all monsters!" "What's the head?" Xia Fan looked at Li unexpectedly. And Li's cheeks began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye, "No, nothing..." "Master Li said, as the smartest monster——" "Stupid dog, shut up!" She gritted her teeth The other side leans forward. "Boss, what are you going to do?" Shanhui feeling murderous couldn't help turning into the form of a tengu, speeding up and fleeing, "Isn't this what you told me? Even the elves and monsters overseas can't escape you. Take control--" "It makes you shut up!" Li simply jumped off his horse and stepped to chase the opponent. "Meow--!" The fat cat spread his four legs and started running at full speed. In an instant, only Xia Fan with a confused face was left on the street. ...Two days later. Liu Ruyan opened the door, walked into her "new residence", and put the rice porridge and grilled fish that she had just hit on the dining table in the hall This was the third time she left the Zuiqinglou On the day, she thought that she would have a longer period of discomfort, and she was even ready to endure hardships, but unexpectedly the actual situation was a bit better than her most optimistic expectation. The bureau not only provided low-cost housing for reserve officials, but also took food into consideration. Just to the south of the lodging area, there is a restaurant dedicated to providing food for those who live here. In fact, she doesn’t know if it should be called a restaurant—because it does not provide a lobby or private room for people to sit down and eat. Instead, she prepares pots or crock pots, and asks the cook to fill it with whatever she wants, and then bring it back to eat. . At the same time, it is not money used to pay bills, but food stamps. This kind of ticket has to be exchanged for the same amount of silver at the bureau. Although it takes one more trip a month, it is much more convenient to use. The restaurant will provide three rounds of sales every day, namely Chenshi, Noon and Youshi. Liu Ruyan is not sure whether it is expensive or not, but the taste is much better than that in Zuiqinglou, especially grilled fish... She never knew before that sea fish would be so delicious when eaten grilled. Moreover, she no longer has to look at the face of the mother to eat. She decides what she wants to eat and how much she wants to eat every day. Even the process of going to a restaurant for food has become a very fun thing. There are many more joys like this. After no one controlled every move, Liu Ruyan felt unspeakably comfortable and at ease-if she left the Drunken Brothel just thinking that she would not regret it, now it has all become lucky. Fortunately, she mustered up the courage that day and stepped into the door of the bureau. Because of this, Liu Ruyan knew that it was not the time to relax, and that the school was about to start teaching for the first time in five days, and she had to go all out to live up to Master Fu Cheng's appointment. After breakfast, she opened the supplementary textbook. A series of peculiar letters called "Pinyin" appeared before her eyes.
