Chapter 376 The Journey to Find the Father

However, Mingzhu is not the kind of person who never forgets, but her mind is absolutely meticulous enough. As early as in the basement of Ouyang Ancient House, she carefully looked at the map of Yongchuan, the king city of the demon world. She not only had a certain understanding of the terrain in the whole king city, but also remembered the street names and directions that were useful for her investigation.

She already knows where to buy what she needs and where to find the entrance to the secret channel. That's why she was so careful. She has long calculated that even if they are seen by the residents of the king city, they are likely to regard themselves as Xia Qiu, the signator of the human blood alliance of the demon king fox.

She successfully found the store that the cloak shopkeeper told her just now. Sure enough, there are all kinds of lamps for sale, large and small. These lamps are mostly made of rattan, and the shape is very exquisite and beautiful. There are no other special lighting equipment in the store, but lights that are used as commodities. They emit orange light one by one, which makes her feel inexplicably warm as soon as she enters the store.

A small and exquisite lamp attracted her attention. The lamp looks like a small bird cage, and there is a small bowl with lamp oil in it. The small bowl is exquisitely designed. After the lamp oil is put in, it can be buckled to death. Even if it shakes, it will not overflow, and the mechanism connected to it can easily turn it on, which is convenient for the lamp. Fuel consumption is full again when it is exhausted.

"Little girl, you have a good vision!"

The wing demon boss, who just sat in the corner, walked behind her and said.

As soon as she turned around, she was stunned by the boss's appearance. The monsters she saw on the street just now were all bull-headed and horse-faced guys. Even if they appeared in human form, most of them wore masks. Although some banshees were beautiful, they were as enchanting as snakes and scorpions. The winged demon is completely different from them. Although she is old, she looks more like an angel in her eyes. Her beautiful wings with patterns, the white feathers naturally growing between the buns, and the emerald green eyes. Although the years have been covered with crisscrossing wrinkles on her face, it is still It's hard to hide her light.

"It's so beautiful!" However, Pearl couldn't help admiring.

The wing demon blinked her eyes and thought that the little human girl was praising the lamp she picked up, so she took the lamp in the hand of the pearl and said, "You see, this lamp can not only be held in your hand like this, but also hang it on your waist. The material of this lampshade is very special, even if it is in such close contact. You don't have to worry about your skin being scalded by it.

"Oh? That's true!" However, Mingzhu saw that there was a small hook on the lamp that was convenient to hang around her waist, but she didn't know where to hang it on her body.

The wing demon first put down the lamp in his hand, and then pointed to the cloak in Mingzhu's hand and said, "Come on, give it to me!"

Ran Mingzhu obediently handed the cloak to the winged demon. In her eyes, she was like a kind grandmother, and her grandmother looked very similar to her in her vague memory of her childhood.

The winged demon took the cloak, put her on Ran Mingzhu very skillfully, then pulled it down, flattened the folds on it, and then pointed the belt of the cloak near her waist to show her.

"You see, this belt can not only adjust the tightness of the cloak, but also hang the lamp on it!" As she spoke, she turned around and picked up the small lamp, hung it on the waist of the pearl, and then pressed the safety buckle on the button. "If you press it gently like this, you don't have to worry about it falling down!"

Ran Mingzhu turned around and found that no matter how the body swinged, the lamp was still stable at her waist and would not burn her cloak. She immediately felt the exquisite design of the wing demon. I immediately decided to buy it, so I asked, "I'll wait for this one. How much is it?"

"I'll give it to you, little girl!" The winged demon said with a smile.

"Why did you give it to me?" Although Mingzhu felt that the wing demon was kind, she did not dare to give her gifts casually.

"It's rare for someone to appreciate the lamp I made so much. Besides, this lamp is not worth much. Just take it!" The winged demon answered and raised his hand to tidy up the cloak on Ran Mingzhu's body. "This is no better than your world. It's full of danger everywhere. Be careful!" And the lamp oil in this lamp can burn for a long time. I'll give you a small bottle of lamp oil for later use!"

Ran Mingzhu nodded gratefully. Although she had walked out of the store, she was still indescribably moved. She never thought that she would meet kind-hearted people just when she came to the demon world. Even in the world, such warmth is rare.

Leaving the shopping street, she finally found the alley where the Sparrow Hotel was located. At this time, the alley has just become lively. The lights and demons are dancing. When the door of each shop is opened, there will be a strong smell of wine and the fragrance of women. Of course, there is also the smell of male animals. This smell is so strong that she can't open her eyes.

The Sparrow Hotel is at the end of this alley. She knows that if she wants to enter the warehouse, she has to enter through the main door and pass through the lobby. But in this way, it is inevitable to deal with the boss at the front desk. It's better to pretend to be a guest and find an opportunity to enter the warehouse from the backyard.

She buttoned the hat on her cloak more tightly, and then summoned up the courage to push the door of the hotel. There were many guests who were drinking and talking in the lobby. A girl with cat ears first found her and came up and asked, "This guest, are you going to stay in the hotel?"

Ran Mingzhu was stunned for a moment and then answered, "Ah... Yes! Give me a single room!"

"Okay, follow me to the counter!" Register with the shopkeeper first!" The cat demon girl smiled and led the pearl to the counter. Although the guest in front of her was wearing a long cloak and her face was blocked by the hat on the cloak, she still smelled that she smelled different from them, but she had never seen human beings, so she couldn't tell what the smell was.

When the shopkeeper behind the counter saw a guest coming, he asked with a smile on his face, "What room do the guest want?"

"Ah, this guest said he wanted a single room..." The cat demon girl said first.

The boss stared at her angrily, and then explained with a smile, "It's really unfortunate that the single rooms here are already full. Why don't you have a suite? The suite is on the third floor. Not only is the environment good, but the windows are not facing the street. It's quiet! If you are sure to check in, I will give you a rich breakfast. What do you think?

Ran Mingzhu was thinking about moving in quickly, but there was no requirement for what kind of room to stay in, so she nodded and answered, "Okay, that's it!"

"How many days do you think you will stay?" The hotel owner asked while registering on the board.

"It's just one night... Ah, no, it's three days!" However, Mingzhu thought it would be better to stay in this hotel for the time being. After investigating the secret channels in this hotel, she will investigate several other things.

"Okay, three days." After writing, the boss raised his head and asked, "Why don't you pay a deposit first?"

"How much deposit do you need!" However, Mingzhu smiled and thought that the demon world was really the same as the world, and there were profiteers everywhere.

"At least this number." The boss stretched out three fingers and said.

"I only have that much." However, Mingzhu took out the largest piece of silver in her pocket and put it on the counter.

"Enough is enough. I'll give you two more days of breakfast!" The boss put the silver in his hand with a smile, and then carefully put it away.

"Xiaohua, take the guests to the room, 367 on the third floor." The boss ordered the cat demon girl, as if he had changed his tone.

"Yes!" The cat demon girl turned around and said to Ran Mingzhu, "Please follow me!"

Ran Mingzhu followed the cat demon girl up to the third floor, turned left, and came to Room 367.

"Actually, you just gave the boss too much money... If you continue to live here in the future, don't give so much. I couldn't remind you in front of the boss just now. I'm so sorry. After spitting out her tongue, the cat demon girl took the key from her waist and opened the door of the room.

Ran Mingzhu saw the girl's fear of the boss. As she walked to the room, she shrugged her shoulders indifferently and said, "Thank you very much!"

"Then I'm leaving. If you need anything, you can call me at any time. My name is Yu Xiaohua. Just call me Xiaohua!" The cat demon girl smiled and turned to leave.

Ran Mingzhu grabbed her, dragged her into the house, and closed the door casually. She didn't know why she thought the cat demon girl was trustworthy. Maybe it was her kind reminder or her clear eyes.

She took out a small piece of silver from her pocket and said to her, "Xiaohua, can you do me a favor?"

"Help?! Yes, but I can't accept this!" The cat demon girl shook her head and was ready to return the silver.

But Mingzhu pushed her outstretched hand back and said, "I want to go to the warehouse in the backyard to find something, but there seems to be someone at the counter all the time, right? Can you tell me the safest time to go to the backyard?

"Yes, but what are you doing in that warehouse? It's dirty and broken there, and it's all the boss's rags. The cat demon girl asked curiously.

"Don't worry about it. It's not good for you to know too much."

"Well, all right! When the guests are separated and it's almost time for the boss to rest, I'll call you. How about that? At that time, you can enter the warehouse smoothly. The cat demon girl still returned the silver to Ran Mingzhu's hand, and then left.

Ran Mingzhu can finally take off the cape on her head and breathe well. Her hair and forehead have long been covered with sweat beads.

She looked around the suite. The living room is very small and has no windows. The bedroom inside is very spacious, but the windows are still very small. The floor and bed look clean. It must have been cleaned by the cat demon girl named Yu Xiaohua just now. She wondered why the girl stayed in such a black shop to work. The boss was not only bad-hearted, but also very fierce. I'm afraid she couldn't stand it for a day. But what she couldn't figure out was that the cat demon girl obviously looked shabby, but she was surprisingly backbone and refused to accept the favor she gave her.

She and Yi lay down in ** and took out her father's diary, which was densely full of her father's handwriting. Looking at them, she seemed to see her father's figure. In the mezzanine of the cover of the diary, she stuffed a group photo of her parents. The photo was taken out of the photo album at home. Although her father was smiling in the group photo, he looked thoughtful. She guessed that her father must be worried about her aunt.
