Cat Travels: The Road to the Devil

Chapter 69 The Crisis of the Mu Family, the Strongest Necromancer 1

The morning sun gently sprinkled down from the clouds, and the sky finally cleared up. Last night, it snowed all night, and the ground piled up a thick layer. Looking around, the whole long street was covered with snow. There was the sound of wheels rolling in the distance, and hard-working people used carriages to pull goods to the distance...

"Ha..." The girl standing at the door of Mu's house took a warm breath to her hands, and then rubbed it up and down. She was wearing Mu's winter to drive away ghosts, and her plain clothes were wrapped in a small cotton-padded jacket inside. After all, she was more afraid of the cold and wore a few more layers, and now she looks like a little white bear.

The girl's hair accessories are very simple, but they are coiled in the back of the head and tied with a hairband.

"A Shui." The door of Mu's family creaked open a little. Ziyin walked out of it and handed the bamboo basket in her arms to Mushui. "I heard that you are resting today. Can you help me send these snacks to the 'Hongxiufang'?"

Hongxiufang, formerly known as the most famous "Drunken Yilou" on Xiling 13th Street, and the boss behind the scenes is Jueluo Qianqi, one of the five major forces in the underworld. Since Luo Qianqi was solved by meat, the girls have also taken back their own deed of sale. Some have left, but many have stayed and changed the store to "Red Sleeve Square". Although it is a brothel as before, if someone redeems himself, he can leave.

And Ziyin decided to enter Mu's house and become a ghost exorcist on the day when Jueluo Qianqi fell.

"Are you afraid of death?" That day, Lian Jian only asked like this.

"Don't be afraid." Her answer is firm.

It has been nearly a year and a half since she came to Mu's house. It was also a year ago that the head of the family wrote to stay in the demon world to practice. I don't know how it is now...

"Sister Ziyin is still skillful!" Mu Shui took it over, lifted the corner of the white cloth and looked at the things inside. He was a little greedy. "I have to go there quickly so that I can get food with them earlier!"

Two days later, it will be the largest festival in the mainland, the Snow Festival.

Although the continent is vast and the temperature varies from region to region, it snows at this time of year.

The goose-like heavy snow will intermittently for a month, and the last day of this month is the Snow Festival.

After the snowy season, we ushered in a brand-new year.

In order to celebrate this festival, all shops on the street will be closed in the last two days, including the brothel. So Ziyin secretly made some snacks in a hurry and asked Mu Shui to send them over.

Mu Shui happened to be on vacation today, so he walked to the street with a bamboo basket in his arms and kept waved, "Sister Ziyin, go in quickly. It's cold outside."

"Well, be careful on the road."

"I will."

The scarlet door slowly closed, and Mu Shui turned his head and shrank his body. It was really cold to walk in this ice and snow.

In Mu's family, she is most afraid of cold. Therefore, Mu Tian laughed and said, "The delicate little girl"... Obviously, she still held two noses and trembled with cold, and she would never wear fewer clothes than her! How dare you talk about her like this, hum, annoying Xiaotian...

After the Snow Festival, she will be 13 years old. Xiaotian is 11 years old, and A Jin and A Huo are both 15 years old, but A Jin is several months older than A Huo.

Maybe it is because of such a festival where families are reunited that A Jin misses Bao more. She also misses Bao... She wants to be in charge more.

Mushui carefully walked in the snow, step by step, and gently looked back at the traces of her walking all the way in the bright sunshine. She couldn't help smiling and bending her eyes.

Since this year, everyone has been practicing very hard. Mu Huo, Mu Jin and Ziyin have been taking over tasks since a year ago. Although it is not an earth-shaking thing, they can earn rewards from it and support the Mu family's livelihood. Mu Xiaofeng stayed in the room all day, practicing illusions, and the whole Mu family was protected by her. Once, some small sects wanted to come to trouble with the Mu family, but with Mu Xiaofeng, they couldn't even enter the door at all.

If you talk about the appearance, everyone seems to have not changed, but Mu Jin and Mu Huo seem to have been pulled up overnight. In the eyes of Mu Shui now, you suddenly need to look up slightly when you want to see them. He looks more and more like a man. Mu Shui smiled shallowly in his heart.

Occasionally, a carriage passed by, and the driver took the food home. After seeing Mu Shui, he greeted him with a smile, "Have you come out so early, little Ah Shui?"

"Ah, I don't have to work today!"

"Ha ha, it will be the Snow Festival in two days. You can come to our house for dinner when you are free."

"Hmm! Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely go there when I have time! I won't get along with delicious food, hee hee.

The festival is about to pass, and everyone is very happy. The misunderstanding of the residents of Xiling City about the Mu family has long been melted, and everyone has seen what the Mu family has done this year, and many people have received the favor of the Mu family. That's right. Xiling City, where Mu's family is located, will never be invaded by evil spirits. Everyone can have a stable holiday.

Mushui walked up the small bridge. She has come to Xiling 13th Street. The third house at the other end of the bridge is "Hongxiu Square".

The girls got up early, but cleaned everywhere and saw Sister Bailing coming out of the house with a bucket from afar.

"Sister Bailing--" Mu Shui shouted at her.

As soon as the lark spilled water on the ground, she heard that someone seemed to be calling her. She straightened up and looked at the bridge and saw the lovely smiling face of Mu Shui. "Oh, it's Xiao A Shui. Come on. Come on - Sister Bailing remembers that Xiao Ashui is most afraid of cold. Hurry to the room to warm up."

Ling, one of the famous prostitutes in Hongxiufang, came after the establishment of Hongxiufang, but he was straightforward and soon became good friends with everyone. And she also loves Mushui very much.

Mushui often visited Hongxiufang in the past year, perhaps because everyone's deed of sale was given to them by the head of the Mu family, so they were very good to her in the face of simple Mushui. Well, as soon as she entered the door, the old madam of Hongxiufang greeted her enthusiastically - her original name was Yuxing, but now she is called Xingniang.

Xing Niang is only 28 years old. Her skin is silky and her figure is plump. She is sitting next to the fire kang with a hot water bag in her. When she sees Mu Shui coming in, she greets her happily. "I was counting a few days ago. You almost have to rest again. Well, Xiao Ah Shui is coming today."

Mu's family has a month off. On that day, you don't have to report anything to Master Zhiyuan, and most of the bath water will come to Hongxiufang.

"Xing Niang, this is the snack that Sister Ziyin asked me to bring you." Mushui put the bamboo basket on the table, and several girls who had a connection with the Mu family surrounded them. Some of them were still so clever. How many people can be found in Xiling City in winter when they can make such crispy snacks in winter?

Hongxiufang has been in and out this year, and many newcomers have come in. Many of the girls who originally came from the drunken building have been redeemed, and now there are only Xing Niang and Yan'er left.

After Luo Qianqi's death, Green Shadow locked herself in the room for three days without eating, drinking or sleeping. Three days later, when she stood in front of everyone again, she dressed up carefully. She said that she decided to leave here and use the money she had saved over the years to buy a two-story house on the street. The first floor was used to open a rouge shop, and the second floor was a place to live. Green Shadow is clever and can best dress up for girls. Not long after the shop opened, many girls and young ladies who have not left the pavilion in Xiling City were attracted - to mention this method of seducing men, it is really the best for famous prostitutes in Xiling. This first step is naturally to "for women to please themselves".

Yan'er, who is also the girl who is most predestined with Lianqi, continues to stay in the red sleeve workshop and become a choreographer. Yan'er is good at dancing. Now most of the dances in Hongxiufang are compiled by Yan'er. She is now 20 years old. At this age, she is not big or small. Yan'er's appearance is good. Many people once wanted to redeem her, but they didn't know that Yan'er's deed of sale had long been their own. Even a 25- or 6-year-old young man said that he wanted to marry Yaner as the main house. His family was ordinary and his parents died in his early years. Now the house he lives in is earned by himself, but Yan'er disagrees.

Xingniang scolded her for being stupid. Not to mention the main room like them, she didn't have to serve her parents-in-law. Why didn't Yaner go?

"I have no intention of getting married now."

"Wait, you don't look at your age, and then you will become an old girl!"

"Isn't there still you in front of me? What am I afraid of?"

"You! You have no conscience, people are worried about you, and you still say so!"

"Well, well, I'm kidding - you know, now in my heart, I just want to do something for the Mu family... I want to enter the Mu family."

Xing Niang's expression has gradually become serious. She has known Yan'er for more than ten years, but she really doesn't understand why Yan'er must enter that exorcism family?

And Yaner, of course, there is a reason, but now is not the time to say it.

Bathing water and eating snacks with everyone, Yan'er slowly walked down from the second floor. Today, she is dressed in a dark and hoarse long coat, wrapped around her body. Despite this, her every move can still easily stir people's hearts.

"Sister Yan'er!" Mu Shui shouted happily.

"Little Ah Shui, if you have nothing to do today, go somewhere with me."

"Ah, Yaner, are you going to take Ah Shui there?" The lark asked in surprise.

"Go early and come back early, don't lose our little water." Xing Niang is not worried. After all, it is not a messy place, although it is a little remote.

"How can it be? When I meet a bad person, I have to expect Xiao Ah Shui to protect me - isn't it, Xiao Ah Shui?" Yan'er asked with a smile.

"That's it! Sister Yan'er will be protected by me! Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one else wants to bully you!" Mu Shui still had a little something in his mouth, which was a little vague but not inferior.

Everyone covered their mouths and smiled.

Yan'er picked up the umbrella beside her and left with the bath water. Although it's sunny now, it may snow heavily later. The weather has been like this month, over and over again.

"Sister Yaner, where are we going?"

"Go and see my mother."

"...ah?"

"My mother...she will be very happy if she meets the people of the Mu family."
