She could only smile and tap the tip of the vine.” Thank you. Please tell him that I’ll be there on time.””
The vines swayed up and down happily. Then, with a whoosh, it shrank back into the corner of the wall and turned back into an ordinary green plant that clung to the Ji family’s outer wall.
It turned out that she and Ming Ze could contact each other in this way. Ji Jing curiously peeked out of the window to look at the vines.
The plant race was always the most peaceful existence in the Demon Realm. They were born to like to absorb sunlight and water in peace, so they always kept a low profile. It was difficult to tell if they were demons or ordinary plants. Ji Jing was also the first demon to see plants.
However, she couldn’t observe for too long. She still had to prepare for the ghost market at night!
Ji Jing quickly returned to her room and started to check her luggage.
She didn’t know if she had enough money. If she couldn’t buy a finished magic tool, it would be good to buy some materials to refine it. It would at least be able to withstand it.
Otherwise, she would always be confined to the Ji family. If she stayed outside for too long, she would be struck by lightning.
As Ji Jing was busy preparing, an afternoon passed.
She arrived at the agreed place ten minutes earlier. She did not expect Ming Ze to be waiting there for a long time.
Ming Ze leaned against the red wall of the bookstore and stood quietly. He looked like he was only wearing an ordinary white shirt and black pants, but Ji Jing knew that his clothes were actually embroidered with gold and red patterns that ordinary people couldn’t see. It was extremely gorgeous.
However, why did the embroidery move?
“Good evening.” Ming Ze seemed to have sensed something. He turned around and smiled at Ji Jing.
“Good evening!” Ji Jing came back to her senses and quickly took a few steps forward.
Only then did she see clearly that Ming Ze’s clothes were embroidered with a round divine beast. The embroidery moved because it was rolling around Ming Ze’s chest.
As soon as Ji Jing got close, it hurriedly rolled and hid on Ming Ze’s shoulder.
“This is Little Jiao Tu. I heard that the ghost market is opening today, so I came here together.” Ming Ze followed Ji Jing’s gaze to her shoulder and explained.
“So cute. You raised many different demons?” Ji Jing asked curiously. Last time, Gu Diao, this time, Jiao Tu, Ming Ze seemed to have many different yao around him.
“Yes, I am. The Baize clan would take in some small demons who had taken refuge for some reason.” Ming Ze explained. This was their family’s mission.
Of course, taking refuge in Ming Ze’s house was not free. Thus, this gradually shaped the powerful influence of the Bai Ze clan.
However, Ming Ze didn’t want to tell Ji Jing about these twists and turns. His past experience had always warned him that humans would be afraid of existences that were too powerful. He didn’t want Ji Jing to feel any distance from him.
“So it turns out that this is the case.” Ji Jing was very surprised. Such a divine beast was just a ” little demon ” in Ming Ze’s eyes? Clearly, any one of them could cause a huge storm in the human world. Ming Ze’s strength might have exceeded her imagination.
Ming Ze is so amazing! Ji Jing sighed. She had always wanted to help people in need.
“Let’s go. We’ll enter from this side.” As he spoke, Ming Ze brought Ji Jing to the back door of the bookstore.
The back door of the bookstore was a traditional red lacquer door, which looked very simple. However, when Ming Ze reached out and knocked on the knocker, an unusual halo seemed to flash past the door. Little Jiao Tu seemed to know what was going to happen and quickly hid behind Ming Ze.
Ji Jing heard the ringing of a copper bell. Then, a gust of wind blew and she was pushed through the door.
The moment Ji Jing blinked, a bustling bluestone street suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. The noise of the market could be heard. “Don’t miss it when you pass by. The Merman Race’s new fabric is 20% off!” “Really? This year’s merfolk’s aesthetic taste is so strange!”
“It is said that the Merman King is in a bad mood because he has fallen out of love!”
“In an unmanned grocery store, those who like it can choose and pay by themselves. Those who run the bill will be hunted down by the King of Hell.”
“I’ve got the certificate! The certificate was issued! Identity card, real estate certificate, marriage certificate, all human documents!”
“Give my child a full set of human documents! Why was it so troublesome to go to the human world now?”
“Are humans afraid of being recognized when they enter the ghost market? Is he fleeing from hell? Give me the Mountain Ghost Mask! I guarantee that you won’t be able to see the original shape!”
