"Xing'er, are you cooking today?" Han Ning asked as he slightly stretched his head from the counter in front of Longmen Fish Restaurant.
"She is packing her things and said she would go to Caiyun Village to pick bamboo shoots later, so I will be the one cooking today."
Master Guan was sweating profusely while cutting the fish without looking up at the person in front of him.
"That's such a pity, but I'd better ask Master Guan to give me a bowl of boiled fish."
"Okay, go ahead and sit and wait." Han Ning sat in front of Longmen Fish Restaurant and waited for the delicious food. Longmen Fish Restaurant was famous in Leye City for its affordable prices and large portions, and was very popular among the people.
Master Guan, the owner of Longmen Fish Restaurant, has a daughter, Guan Xinger, who often makes some weird dishes.
But the craftsmanship is still very good, even a few percent better than Master Guan, so Guan Xing'er's name is still relatively famous in Leye City.
"Dad, I'm leaving, remember to leave some food for me tonight!"
A girl jumped out of the Longmen Fish Restaurant. Her long black hair was combed into a single ponytail, her eyes were like apricots, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and she exuded a lively atmosphere.
Wearing black and yellow light clothes, he is full of fiery enthusiasm.
"Chef Xing, please come back early after picking bamboo shoots. We are all looking forward to your cooking."
"You must make fresh bamboo shoots with three shreds. At the end of the year, you can only eat them a few times!"
"What? The Longmen Fish Restaurant has to do the three-wire dish in the evening, so I will get off work early in the afternoon. I'm just looking forward to Chef Xing's three-wire dish!"
Hearing this, the girl smiled and turned around to respond.
"Okay, okay, when I have collected enough, I will make it for everyone when I get back in the evening!"
After Guan Xing'er finished speaking, he slung the package over his shoulder, took a spear with him, and ran out of the city.
"It's okay to pick bamboo shoots near Caiyun Village... They are all old people, so it should be easier to do it..."
Han Ning murmured involuntarily while eating the boiled fish.
After eating, Han Ning made a credit payment as usual, rubbed his belly and walked along the roadside, took out a list from his clothes and looked at it.
It has been several years since he traveled to this world, and he physically traveled through it while sleeping.
Fortunately, no virus was brought to the world, and most of the people here are simple and kind, so Han Ning can live a healthy life until now.
Now, by chance, he works as the internal affairs manager of Diehuo Hall. Although he is said to be the internal affairs manager, he is actually in charge of the three or five people under his command.
As for what Diehuotang does, it's a bit complicated, but its main business is to help people deal with their funeral arrangements.
I make coffins, make wreaths, personalize fires, etc. I also do some work of exorcising evil spirits and catching ghosts.
The salary was pretty good, but it was very delayed when it was paid. Han Ning had to go to the hall master's room to pay for it every time.
But these problems are not big. After all, for Han Ning, he still has a major goal to complete.
Walking on the streets of Leye City, there are children playing on both sides, and people doing various businesses in the houses.
It looked very peaceful, and Han Ning planned to go to Chunxiaoyuan to buy some things, even though the name sounded very informal.
But Chunxiao Yuan only sells some spices, that is to say, the boss is a bit crooked, and caused Han Ningshe to die when he first traveled through time.
When Han Ning was about to arrive, he saw two soldiers wearing armor and a Taoist priest in white robes standing in front of the gate of Chunxiao Yuan.
"My lords, what's wrong? Did something happen in Chunxiao Yuan?"
Han Ning walked over and asked beside a music guard.
"Ah, it turns out to be Master Han. Recently, there is a fugitive in the city who keeps harming people in the middle of the night. He also has a code name added to it. He seems to be the Night Demon. He has become more bold recently, just last night!"
"Huh? What happened last night?"
"Our cavalry commander was killed last night. It was so tragic, and the immortal order was taken away. Ordinary people may not be able to activate it, but the night demon is very weird. If it is activated, it will be a big deal!
"
"Ouch, then this is a big deal. I remember that Commander Song is a Rock Dao Immortal Order. If this is activated, it will be terrible."
[Immortal Order] Some people in this world will receive it after they are born or experience certain things.
You can use the Immortal Token to draw on the power of Heaven. In fairy tales, its nature is similar to that of spiritual roots.
But unfortunately, the Immortal Token will lose its light after the host dies. Very few people can activate it, and no one has ever been able to use two Immortal Tokens at the same time.
At this time, another guarding army caught a glimpse of Han Ning's waist, which was hanging with a beautifully crafted iron plate, evenly inlaid with white crystal stones.
This way it looks exactly like an unactivated fairy order.
"Brother Liu! This man's waist!"
When the soldiers who were talking to Han Ning heard it, they didn't pay much attention and turned around to pat the recruit.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Master Han has had this immortal order for several years. It was left to Master Han when his parents died."
"Ha, haha" Han Ning smirked helplessly. The hall master made up these parents for him at the time.
"Ah, that's it, sorry, sorry!"
"It's okay, it's okay. It's reasonable to have doubts in special times."
After all, your boss was killed and you were investigating, suddenly.
If you see a man strutting in front of you on the road holding something similar to what your friend lost after his death, why don't you pull your friend out of the coffin and ask?
The garrison soldiers did not stay too long and left after searching Chunxiao Yuan once.
"There's been so much chaos in the city recently, and the night demons are also scary. Have you come here to do part-time work lately, as a bodyguard or something like that? By the way, Xiao Ningzi, are you here to buy something?"
The proprietress of Chunxiaoyuan came out. She was wearing a waist-length underskirt and a dark purple cross-collar shirt, covering her heavy chest. Her lips were dotted with vermilion rouge, and she had an intellectual temperament. She was beautiful yet mature and steady.
Han Ning twitched, still unable to accept Xiao Ningzi's title.
Although this kind of name is very common in this world, before Han Ning, only empresses in the world would call young eunuchs this way.
"No, no, the little things I have learned can only deal with ghosts, but they are not effective on humans. Sister Zhou, let me buy some powder to repel beasts. The stronger the effect, the better!"
"Xiao Ningzi, are you going out of the city to drive away ghosts again? Are your Diehuo Hall manpower so low now?"
"Isn't the hall master sick? She used to do all the work, but now she's sick and can only rely on me."
"Oh, it's so pitiful that a little girl from your hall has such a serious illness. I used to see her come down every day to promote business, and she was so lively."
"I haven't seen her come out for half a year now. I won't say anything anymore. I'm going to find animal repellent powder for you."
After Sister Zhou entered the house to get the medicine, the Taoist priest in white who had been standing aside for a long time approached.
"Meet Daoist Han"
"Well, Yun Chao, what are you here to buy?"
Although the Taoist priest in front of him was wearing a Taoist robe, he still showed an obvious bookishness and his speech seemed very weak.
But his status is extraordinary, he is the legitimate son of the Jinyun family, a famous exorcism family in Leye City.
It was not something that a dabbler like Han Ning could compare to. He only knew him because Han Ning had studied the Jinyun family's exorcism method with him.
The main reason is that the Jinyun family's exercises are not hidden, and anyone who wants to learn them can learn them, but there are still not many people who learn them, because generally no one can learn them.
Even within the family, most people learned it reluctantly through blood.
Han Ning learned surprisingly quickly and quickly learned the entire book, but unfortunately he did not have Jinyun bloodline, so his power was worrying.
"It's like this. The elders in the family feel that the people causing trouble in the city recently are not human beings."
Han Ning squinted his eyes and was ready to run away or cover the other person's mouth.
"Oh? Is it really okay to tell an outsider this kind of thing like this?"
"Taoist Master Han, you don't have to be like this. You and I are the ones who protect the people of Li. There is no need to hide this kind of news!"
"Okay, Yun Chao, continue talking to you."
"If it was a human being, he must have been caught long ago. The elders in the family also left traces on that person with the Immortal Order, but after daylight, the traces were inexplicably interrupted."
Jinyun said to one side, his face became a bit paler, as if he had just crawled out of a grave, making people wonder how he could stand firm.
"It's impossible for humans to have such abilities, so the elders in the family thought it must be something sneaky from the mountains!"
"This time I came out just to buy some yin-like powder and put it on my body to cover up my yang energy. Then I might be able to encounter that thing, and then I might be able to eliminate harm for the people!"
Han Ning looked at Yun Chao, who was getting more and more excited as he talked, and smiled bitterly, feeling that he didn't have much yang energy in him.
"Yun Chao, you'd better stop doing this. If you really want to fix things, go to your home and find a few people to accompany you before you go. You might have been there for nothing."
What Director Han said makes sense, I will call a few more brothers and sisters at night and walk through the entire Leye City, I don’t believe I can’t catch that thing!”
There was a sound of footsteps behind the counter, Sister Zhou walked over with two bottles of medicine in her arms, and the two stopped communicating.
"Xiao Ningzi, come on, this is animal repellent powder, made of fine animal blood and tiger glands, it's particularly effective."
"And then there is this bottle, which is also a good tonic. You can take it back and give it to your hall master so that she can recover as soon as possible."
Han Ning took the medicine bottle and said, "Thank you, Sister Zhou, for your kindness. I wonder how much these two bottles cost?"
"No, sister, I've known you for a long time. Just take these two bottles back. It won't be too late to pay the bill when the hall master is well."
"This..." Han Ning just wanted to refuse, but he really didn't have much money around his waist.
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Sister Zhou. I owe you a favor again, sister."
"Okay, okay, that's it, little Taoist priest, what are you here to buy?"
"I, I'm here to buy Xiyin powder..."
As soon as he left Chunxiao Courtyard, Han Ning saw a tall woman standing at the door.
At this height, he must be over 1.8 meters tall, which is a head taller than Han Ning.
With his standard white hair, Han Ning could immediately tell that he was also from the Jinyun family.
"The talent is quite good, but it's a pity that if I don't activate the Immortal Order, I'm just a mortal after all, alas."
The woman stared at the dark gray fairy order on Han Ning's waist and said.
Han Ning still put on the standard fake smile, took off the fairy order from his waist and stuffed it into his clothes.
"It's good for me like this. Aunt Lanxian doesn't have to worry about me anymore. It's better to make more preparations and be careful not to be possessed by that evil spirit at night."
"Tsk!" The woman seemed dissatisfied with Han Ning's words and turned her head away. Han Ning didn't bother too much. He didn't care about it anyway and walked out of the city with two bottles of medicine.
"Auntie, let's go, we've finished shopping." Jinyun walked out carrying a basket of medicine bottles.
"Okay" Jin Yunlan replied coldly, and then followed Yun Chao. The figure of the male protagonist flashed in Jin Yunlan's mind from time to time, and it seemed that every one was too the same, as if something was changing.
"Why do we have so many different impressions of him? It's obviously just a matter of two languages."
[You are just a mortal, why are you always surrounded by thoughts?]
The more he used Han Ning's mortal status to distract himself from his thoughts, the more Jin Yunlan thought of the dark gray fairy order on Han Ning's waist.
[Am I remembering it wrong? I remember that the thing on the mortal waist is not the Feng Dao Immortal Token?]
Different immortal ways can draw on the power of different heavenly ways, and depending on the different heavenly ways, the patterns on the immortal order and the colors emitted by the crystals will be different.
Although the unactivated fairy order will not shine, the pattern will not change.
[I clearly remember that what he wore around his waist was the Feng Dao Immortal Token, but how did it appear just now that what he hung around his waist was the Rock Dao Immortal Token?]
[Forget it, I must have remembered it wrong]
Although he had doubts in his heart, Jin Yunlan had a cold temperament, so he did not tell the matter.
