Chapter 420 Entering the City
Chapter 420 Entering the City
Long Chuqing stared at the horse's head, his tone calm: "Could it be that you two are trying to extort money from us because we're unfamiliar faces?"
"Uh~" Ma Shou seemed a little guilty after hearing this.
His eyes darted around, and he grinned, "Look at you, how can you say it's fraud? The effects of this Illusionary Beauty Pearl far exceed its intrinsic value; it cannot be measured by its monetary worth."
“If you plan to stay in the city long-term, it’s actually quite a good deal,” he said, rubbing his hands together. “Hehe… don’t you think so?”
Looking at his silly, horse-like face, Long Chuqing waved her hand and said, "Forget it, we don't need it. Thinking about it carefully, this bead doesn't seem to be of much use to us."
"No way! It has many uses!" Horse Head quickly tried to smooth things over: "How about this? I'll give you a discount, one hundred and fifty spirit crystals each!"
Seeing that Long Chuqing remained unmoved, Ma Shou added, "This price is already very low; it can't be any lower."
At this moment, the restrictions at the city gate had been lifted.
"Put it away, we don't need it." Feng Yu looked at the already opened city gate and called out, "Let's go, let's enter the city."
Long Chuqing and Fei Feng nodded in agreement.
The ox-headed and horse-headed figures looked disappointed as the deal that was about to fall through suddenly collapsed.
Or, how about we give it a try?
Let's promote it again.
"and many more……"
Bull Head stopped the group, holding up two fingers. "Let's discuss it some more! Buying two will do?"
The group stood still, unmoved.
The bull-headed man lowered his head and looked at the two raised fingers, then slowly knocked one of them down.
"One, one is fine too, at least let the two of us make a sale..."
Seeing this, Fei Feng stepped forward and raised her hand to make a sweeping motion in the air in front of her eyes.
Suddenly!
As the golden light swirled, her face suddenly changed, transforming into the shape of a bull's head.
"Do you two think that in my current state..." Fei Feng's bull head moved closer, "do you still need your Illusionary Beauty Pearl?"
"Oh my... this... this..." The bull's eyes widened suddenly, his gaze fixed on the face opposite him that was completely identical to his own.
I was startled, no, I was taken aback.
His eyes seemed to hold a blank look, and a hint of disbelief.
What surprised me was not that Fei Feng could use the illusion technique, but rather the appearance of the person opposite me.
"Huh! Is this...is this me?" He staggered back half a step.
He subconsciously reached out and touched his face: Hmm, it felt a bit rough.
He then realized that his hair was no longer as soft and smooth as he remembered, but had a rough, prickly feel to it.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems like I haven't properly groomed my hair in a long time.
He then looked at Fei Feng's face, which was exactly the same as his own.
Is this how others see me?
So, from this angle, this is what I actually look like.
but…….
His brows furrowed involuntarily, and his eyes instantly filled with disdain.
"No way! How could I be so ugly?"
He waved his hand and turned his face away, unwilling to look any longer.
Fei Feng: "..." No way?
He's...disliking his own appearance.
No, is that what she meant?
She was just trying to make it clear that they didn't need the Illusion Pearl.
"Pfft~"
"Exactly the same, hahaha..." The horse head next to him laughed after hearing this: "Now you finally know how ugly you are! Now you know how much I suffer every day having to face your ugly face?"
The bull-headed man frowned, and his large nostrils suddenly widened, letting out a "whoosh" of breath.
That damned horse head, how dare it laugh at him!
He put his hands on his hips, tilted his head back, and shoved the horse's head in front of him, saying defiantly, "You, Old Ma, how dare you mock your Uncle Niu."
"See how thin I'm getting? It's because I can't eat because I'm looking at your filthy face all day! Don't think you're any better than me, you're just as ugly. Let's not look down on each other, huh..."
When Horse Head heard Ox Head call him a donkey dung face, the corners of his mouth immediately froze.
He flicked the tuft of spiky hair on his forehead that was blocking his eyes: "Who are you calling ugly? Who have a donkey dung face?"
"I'm talking to you! You're ugly as a clumsy gourd, just like a donkey."
"You bastard Niu Laosan, how dare you make fun of me like this! I'll fight you to the death!"
Horse Head rolled up his sleeves and swung his fist at Bull Head.
Bang bang bang!
The horse-headed man roared, "I'll tear your stinking mouth apart!"
Whoohoo!
Bullhead retorted, "Fine! You started it, I'll scratch your donkey-dung face until it's covered in grime..."
clap clap clap!
Three people and one fox: "..."
What's the situation?
Wait, why are they fighting amongst themselves?
Why are they attacking my appearance all of a sudden?
Looking at the bull and horse heads wrestling on the ground, the three of them were dumbfounded, yet also somewhat enlightened: Oh... so fighting can be like this?
The little fox poked its head out and watched intently the fight unfolding before its eyes.
Long Chuqing shook his head and said helplessly, "Let's go, let's enter the city."
The city gates have been opened; you may enter at your own discretion.
The three men and the fox bypassed the two men and walked into the city.
Half a step away from the city gate, Fei Feng stopped and looked back. After a slight hesitation, a handful of spirit crystals flew from her palm and were thrown towards the ox-headed and horse-headed statues.
Let's just consider it... compensation for their emotional trauma?
The bull-headed and horse-headed creatures, who were still wrestling, caught a glimpse of the light refracted by the spirit crystal out of the corner of their eyes and suddenly flipped over and leaped up.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" With quick eyes and hands, they caught the flying spirit crystals one by one.
The ox-headed and horse-headed figures watched the three people and one fox disappear into the city gate barrier, then carefully put away the spirit crystals in their hands.
The bull-headed man bent down to pick up the weapon from the ground and looked at the horse-headed man: "Hmph~ I won't bother with you today."
Ma Shou also snorted coldly, looking unconvinced, and finally picked up the meteor hammer and returned to his post.
After crossing the barrier, it felt like entering another world.
The first thing you see is a wide main road leading to the main entrance.
Not far ahead, a commotion arose, and the bustling scene of the streets came into view.
The buildings within the city are not uniform in style. Unlike the ancient and solemn city gates and walls, they are all kinds of bizarre and varied houses.
Along the streets are bone caves built from huge animal bones, and from time to time, one or two spirits peek out from the second-floor windows.
There are also houses made of rammed earth formed naturally, and stone houses built with regular stones.
There are also honeycomb-like structures, and wooden houses suspended in mid-air, made of intertwined branches and vines, with roofs covered in lush foliage, some of which are adorned with various eerie and vibrant flowers.
In addition to the shops on both sides, there are also many stalls set up along the street, selling all kinds of spiritual herbs, fruits, pills, talismans and magical artifacts.
There were also many stalls where people bartered goods.
As you pass by the stalls, you can hear buyers and stall owners haggling over prices.
"Click-clack..."
As the wind swept by, the bone wind chimes hanging at the shop entrance swayed gently, producing a series of clear and crisp sounds.
But when night falls, the sound produced by these bone bells will no longer be a clear and melodious sound, but a desolate sound that transcends life and death, a sob of the wind, and the wails and cries of lost souls.
