Chapter 753 Help
After a brief look at the ghost town, these ghosts were obviously quite satisfied.
Of course, it is not about the environment here. After all, they have been in places like the underworld for hundreds or thousands of years, but about the friendly and kind atmosphere here.
"There is no fighting or killing here, everything is so elegant and easy-going. These weak little monsters can live happily, which is simply perfect!"
A big monster sighed so much.
If the ignorant person heard this, maybe he really thought that this was a sympathetic master. Who would have thought that he was actually a murderer not long ago?
Du Bai couldn't help but be amazed again at the master's magical skills that he could change a person's mind and nature so thoroughly.
In short, these ghosts stayed in the ghost town for the time being, but did not let them do good deeds immediately. Instead, as mentioned before, the peach blossom demon began to arrange for them to teach, and first learn basic knowledge.
However, although they did not exert any power, the news that they arrived and lived in the ghost city had spread to nearby ghost gathering places in less than a long time, causing quite a lot of storm.
Of course, fear is that it accounts for the majority, especially those who insist on not dealing with the ghost town on weekdays.
They had not been very convinced of Ghost City's behavior of attracting ghosts for their own use, and they felt that they were deliberately suppressing them and trying to dominate the territory here.
Piansheng and others did not have the strength to resist, and the establishment of the ghost market was indeed helpful, so they felt even more aggrieved, but they secretly looked forward to whether there would be one day, whether there would be a strong enough force to compete with the ghost city, so that they could breathe a little and gain some opportunities for development.
However, from now on, they have completely lost their hearts. It is no exaggeration to realize that the ghost city has become so powerful that it is invincible in the world!
In this case, they no longer see the hope of turning defeat into victory, and they only feel that the only way to live for them is to surrender to the ghost city...
There are some other guys who are more like fence-breasted men. After learning that several ghost king-level existences have joined the ghost town, they immediately came to ask for cooperation with an old face...
Of course, even if they choose to be loyal, whether Du Bai will accept it is another matter.
Ghost towns have always adhered to the principle of preferring nothing but being too bad, not to mention that their strength has increased significantly now, so there is no need to worry about whether there will be a lack of people.
...
In Lin'an on the other side, the Su family's shops rarely did not open early. Some wealthy people who got up early to buy glass were stunned when they looked at the closed door, looking at each other and were confused for a moment.
It was not until after inquiring about each other that I suddenly realized that it was said that people from the Su family might go back to their hometown, which is a small town in the countryside these days, so naturally they had no time to take care of them.
Xu Zhiyan also heard about this incident by chance. He was shocked and rushed to the front of the Su family's gate to visit. At first glance, he saw that the mansion was quite busy, tidying up the things and cleaning them, as if he was about to move them away.
He was stunned and happened to see Du Bai and a servant in the gate walking out while giving instructions. He quickly shook his sleeves, reached forward and asked anxiously, "Brother Du, are you leaving Lin'an?"
Du Bai looked at him in surprise, then came to his senses and smiled and said, "Yes, we will leave Lin'an in a few days and return to Yuanyang City for some time... I was negligent and forgot to tell you about this matter. It's a coincidence that you came!"
"But Lin'an's business has just improved a little. If you leave this, wouldn't the previous effort be wasted?" Xu Zhiyan saw him as if he was taken for granted, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking in disbelief, and was still angry at his casual actions.
He had spent a lot of effort to deal with the Fan family before, but now he has finally succeeded. He cannot understand this sudden behavior of abandoning it!
Du Bai was stunned and then realized what he was worried about. He couldn't help laughing twice, feeling relieved by Xu Zhiyan's concern, and gently patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, we have already made some arrangements for this matter."
"After we leave, the Su family shop will open as usual and sell porcelain and glazed normally, but the person in charge has become a friend of mine. Of course, you may be more responsible for this matter. When we are not here, if the shop encounters any trouble, you have to worry about us."
Xu Zhiyan felt a little relieved after learning this, but he was still a little confused: "Now is a great opportunity for the Su family to develop in Lin'an. I wonder if Brother Du is so anxious to go back to Yuanyang City, but what urgent matter is there?"
Du Bai sighed softly and replied, "I've just been away from home for a long time. I want to take advantage of the good weather in early spring and go back and have a look..."
Xu Zhiyan didn't think much, just felt a little sudden, but since the Su family had decided, he didn't say anything more, but just nodded solemnly: "Brother Du, don't worry, I will take the Su family's shop to heart, and I guarantee that nothing will happen."
It will probably take more than a month to go there, and it will take half a year to go back and forth. Although Liuli is not worried about selling, it will always be troublesome if someone is jealous of making trouble.
After Xu Zhiyan, Du Bai also went to Sheng Yunting to find him.
Fortunately, with experience before, the Confucian scholar guarding the gate had no intention of stopping him. He just glanced at him with some resentment and gave him the waist card angrily.
After thanking him, he went into the academy to find Sheng Yunting, and returned the previous travel notes borrowed from Yanzangshan.
"Please pass this book on my behalf to Yanzangshan, and thank him for me. This travel notation is of great help to my inspiration. Perhaps new and interesting stories will be born in the future."
Sheng Yunting took the book with a smile and nodded, "That's good, Brother Du, after you write a new book, don't forget to show it to me first! I'm so itchy!"
He has been studying and writing stories during this period, but what he wrote is not as good as that. He felt even more ashamed and admired Du Bailai who could write such stories. He is considered an absolute fan of books.
However, after talking about this, Du Bai mentioned another sentence, mentioning that the Su family would set off for Yuanyang City in a few days.
Sheng Yunting was stunned for a moment, and then he slapped the table in a hurry: "Why is it so sudden?! I have to pack up my things, and I have to ask the gentlemen for leave..."
Du Bai looked at him with some amusement: "We have been going through half a year. Will you still take the imperial examination next time? You, just study here with peace of mind. If there are any letters or tokens, I can send you a trip."
Sheng Yunting probably understood that he was impulsive. He sighed in disappointment, sat back, and muttered: "There is no need for letters from home, but you can say to my parents for me, don't send such a large amount of silver every month. I have no place to spend in the academy, and I have to spend some time out of the academy to go to the silver shop to save money..."
"This is OK."
Du Bai glanced at him with some appreciation.
This kid is becoming more and more mature and sensible now.
Looking back at the time, the money spent on releasing animals every month was already quite a big deal, and thanks to the great business of Sheng’s family, it was not dragged down.
His parents were strict before, afraid that he would become a real prodigal son. Now that he finally was willing to study hard, he agreed to give more money and be more relaxed. As a result, this kid has changed his mind and has stopped spending money.
If the uncle and aunt of the Sheng family knew about it, they would probably laugh out loud in their dreams.
And all this change may be thanks to the little spider spirit I met by chance...
Finally, Du Bai remembered something and suddenly asked, "Is that spider still by your side now?"
Sheng Yunting was a little surprised why he suddenly asked about this, but he nodded honestly and said, "Of course it's there. But I have to study every day and don't have much time to spend with her to relax. Moreover, she is getting bigger and bigger, and it is not convenient to raise it in this academy. So she just lets her go to the woods in the back mountain to take a rest. When I free time, I will go to see her."
This is indeed a good way. This kind of monster is definitely better for them to absorb spiritual energy and practice in the mountains and forests than in the world of the city.
However, what Du Bai was considering was that if he really wanted to practice so slowly, it was hard to say how long it would take to turn into a human form to meet him.
He was responsible for sending her to practice again, and now he was also thinking about helping her.
He flipped his palm under the table quietly, and then a golden pill appeared in his hand and handed it to Sheng Yunting in front of him, saying, "This is the pill I got from the master by chance. It is said that it will be very beneficial for the cultivation of the fairy. You can hand it over to her next time, which should be of some help..."
This thing is indeed not a pill, and he can't refine pills either. It's purely because he used some herbs to mash them and pinch them by hand.
But most importantly, it is filled with some of the wishes he gathered before!
Before, he thought that these wishes might be able to create immortals, but after discussing in detail with the monk in the underworld, he realized that he was taking it for granted.
The destiny of the immortal is destined to no longer appear in this world!
However, it is not a waste of effort. After all, these wishes are still very widely used and can almost be regarded as a universal energy higher than spiritual energy.
What he sent out was expected to grow faster and greatly shorten the time it took for the spider spirit to transform into a human.
Sheng Yunting was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly picked up the pill with both hands as if he was treated with a rare treasure, put it away carefully, and smiled gratefully: "Thank you Brother Du!"
He believed in Du Bai's words, because Du Bai never said he had missed it.
What he hopes most now is to see that girl again as soon as possible...
