Rebirth of Devouring Dragon Emperor

Chapter 392: Long time no see (first update)
Not long after Senior Wan and his companions left, someone brought the room card over.

Ye Qing's group consisted of fourteen people. Ye Qing, Chu Xian and Tang Zhen lived in one place, and Wan Qianbai arranged three places for the remaining eleven people.

There are four rooms in a house, and each of them can have a separate room to live in, which is definitely a treatment that ordinary people cannot have.

It should be noted that there are too many people coming to this trade fair, so the organizer has limited the accommodation. Under normal circumstances, one invitation letter can only get one house, and many people from sects and families can only squeeze together.

But they are still doing well, at least they don't have to sleep in the open air. Those who arrived late, if they don't want to live far away and run back and forth every day, can only spend the night in the mountains and forests, which is really miserable.

Having the organizer reserve separate accommodation is a privilege not everyone has.

After the person who delivered the card said goodbye and left, Ye Qing and others also got up and left.

The people from Tianji Sect and the Chu family went to find houses respectively, while Ye Qing, Tang Zhen and the other two also wanted to move to a new place.

The four residences were not in the same place, but scattered, so they separated temporarily.

"Ye Qing, after we've settled everything, let's go to the square and take a look."

On the way, Tang Zhen jumped up and down beside Ye Qing and said, "Grandpa Wan said it's very lively there, and there are many people selling things. Let's go and take a look."

Ye Qing nodded upon hearing this.

"Go."

Ye Qing said: "But wait until the evening."

"what?"

Tang Zhen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"

"It's crowded right now. Many people who just arrived are still lingering there. The organizers don't have any accommodations to arrange for them, so they must be there to appease the people who arrive later. It's not the right time yet. People will probably start setting up stalls to sell things in the evening."

"That's it!"

Tang Zhen suddenly realized and thought that this was indeed the case. He nodded immediately: "Then let's go when it's getting dark."

……

Ye Qing and the other two found a place to live. Chu Xian was responsible for cleaning and tidying the house, and Tang Zhen also helped.

Although Chu Xian was Ye Qing's maid and was responsible for Ye Qing's daily life, and Tang Zhen was on the same level as Ye Qing and was closer to Ye Qing in the past, Tang Zhen never felt that she was superior to Chu Xian. On the contrary, most of the time she would follow Chu Xian's wishes and be very obedient to Chu Xian.

She has never been a person who relies on being spoiled and will never think that she is very powerful just because she has a close relationship with Ye Qing.

There are many things about Chu Xian that are worth learning from.

Ye Qing drank tea leisurely in the living room and did not participate in tidying up the two girls' rooms.

In a blink of an eye, it was already evening.

Outside, the sky gradually darkened and lights began to appear among the mountains and forests.

"Ye Qing, shall we go for a walk in the square?"

Tang Zhen, who was sitting opposite Ye Qing, had been absent-minded for a long time. Seeing that Ye Qing was still unhurried and had no intention of moving, she finally couldn't help but take the initiative to say, "It's getting dark, so I guess it's getting lively there too, right?"

"Grandpa Wan said that the lights will be on brightly at night during the trade fair. During the ten days of the trade fair, this place will become a city that never sleeps. Although there will be no formal transactions at night, it will be as lively as during the day, especially on the first night."

"How about we get going?"

Tang Zhen looked at Ye Qing with his big eyes, and said pitifully: "It's so boring to stay here."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qing shook his head and chuckled.

Actually, Tang Zhen's personality is not that active. Most of the time, she can stay quiet, such as when she should practice seriously or when Ye Qing has something important to do.

But sometimes, she behaves relatively lively.

For example, when she has nothing to do, she is very keen to take Ye Qing out for a stroll.

"alright."

He said, standing up and saying, "Let's go then."

"Yeah, let's go!"

Tang was really happy and jumped ahead.

The three of them closed the door casually without turning off the lights.

The house is located between the mountains and forests. The purpose of turning on the lights is to tell others that someone lives here and not to trespass.

After going out, they headed towards the trading square at a moderate pace.

Tang Zhen didn't urge him, he just walked and skipped along the mountain road.

She was in a very good mood and did not seem to be affected by the negative memories that were awakening day by day, which made Ye Qing feel relieved.

Soon, they approached the square.

The monks' hearing and vision were not comparable to those of ordinary people. From a distance, they could already vaguely hear the noise coming from the other side of the mountain ahead. The road turned a corner, and after turning the hill, the view suddenly opened up, and what came into view was a huge square.

At this time, it was not yet dark, but the square was already brightly lit.

The flow of people is like a tide, and the noisy sounds can be heard from far away. The bustle is no less than that of the streets in cultural scenic spots at night.

Here, ninety-nine percent of the people are monks. There are no ordinary people. Therefore, most people do not regard themselves as monks. Therefore, they take off their masks and return to their true selves. At this time, they are just like in the mortal world, and their human nature reappears.

If someone who doesn't know the situation sees this, they will just think it's an earthly night market.

"It's so lively!"

Tang Zhen stared ahead with wide eyes, his face showing excitement.

There was also a divine light in Chu Xian's eyes.

This was Tang Zhen’s first time at the trade fair, and it was also her first time.

Although she is the eldest daughter of the Chu family, her cultivation was not high before, and the Chu family is low-key and rarely participates in trade fairs. Although she heard that the trade fair is extremely lively, she has never had the opportunity to come and see it.

Now that I see it with my own eyes, it is exactly as I imagined.

"Let's go."

Ye Qing touched Tang Zhen's head and spoke.

"Ah."

Tang Zhen nodded vigorously and walked in front.

A few minutes later, they reached the edge of the square.

As they got closer, they had a new understanding of how lively the square was.

However, at the edge of the square, most of the sheds were now occupied by people. They were of different shapes and sizes, but they had one thing in common, that is, there were piles of things of varying sizes placed on the tables in front of them, and in front of most of the people, there would be people gathering around, constantly checking the items and commenting on them.

There were more people moving between the sheds, constantly checking.

The square was transformed into a night market, with countless monks setting up stalls here.

Ask, discuss, bargain, chat...

Various sounds came into the ears, making people feel excited. Soon they became one of the participants, fully experiencing this grand gathering of monks that only takes place once every few years.

"Ye Qing, let's go and take a look. I have a feeling I can find something good for you tonight!"

Tang Zhen took Ye Qing's arm and pulled him into the crowd.

Ye Qing had no choice but to let her go.

In fact, he didn't really like such crowded places, and he didn't like to just jump in and become one of them.

This was not the atmosphere he was used to.

However, after returning to Earth, his temperament gradually changed a lot. He could tolerate Tang Zhen and now he is not so repulsive to him.

He followed Tang Zhen and wandered around the various stalls. Most of the time, he just smiled and watched Tang Zhen interact with the stall owners without saying a word. He only gave one or two suggestions and insights when Tang Zhen asked.

At this moment, he was standing aside, watching Tang Zhen bargaining with a white-haired old man over a piece of unpolished jade.

The two have been in a stalemate for three minutes.

Tang Zhen was still in high spirits, but the old man was already a little impatient, obviously very annoyed by Tang Zhen's entanglement.

But facing the innocent and lovely Tang Zhen, he couldn't bear to show her a bad face, so he could only deal with it helplessly, just hoping that Tang Zhen would calm down.

Ye Qing couldn't help wanting to laugh.

Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder from behind.

He was stunned for a moment, then turned his head.

"Ye Qing, is it really you?"

What came into view was a face that was full of uncertainty and surprise. Although it looked much older, it was still very familiar to him.

Ye Qing paused for a second and then laughed.

"Oh it's you."

He looked at the young man in front of him and said with a smile: "Han Yi, long time no see."

After hearing Ye Qing's words, the hesitation on the young man's face disappeared. He looked at Ye Qing and also smiled.

"Yes."

As he spoke, he sighed: "Ye Qing, it's been a long time since we last met!"
