Chapter 314 The security situation seems to have improved overnight.
After Aunt Bai left with her rebellious rat, Feng Xue returned to the jade carving and looked at the illusory god with a strange gaze.
He had assumed that Kaguya Suga, whose personality code had not yet been loaded, would be a rigid AI, at most a virtual god, but he did not expect that even without intelligence, she was still influenced by her believers.
"Perhaps this is why summoning a virtual god can pollute the soul? If I directly edit the virtual god's knowledge base and then create the Emperor's Elixir, wouldn't that be equivalent to directly infusing specific knowledge?"
Feng Xue has a very quick mind and immediately thought of a rather unconventional use. However, there is still a problem: she doesn't know if this knowledge loading will be useful to humans.
"Tsk, the Japanese are still a long way off... Hmm, no, that's not right. That guy's sea of consciousness has been blocked. They should have captured some ordinary ninjas to be his teachers back then. Now they don't even have anyone to test their spells on."
Feng Xue sighed inwardly, straightened her clothes, and was about to go out when Liu Yunxi, who had already started preparing lunch, pulled her back. Only after finishing lunch did she fully dress up and head out onto the street.
"So, what's the rush you're going out for?"
Today, Liu Yunxi didn't transform into a ring; instead, she was dressed in casual clothes and following beside Feng Xue. Feng Xue shrugged and said:
“There are human beings in this world with a spirit, even the Japanese devils. If they don’t provoke me, but I go and capture them, then there will be karma. So I might as well go out and wander around. If any fools come along, I can take them back to be cadavers.”
"So I've become your bait too, huh?" Liu Yunxi's face darkened instantly. She thought Feng Xue didn't turn her into a ring today because she treated her like a human being, but it turned out she was just using her as bait.
"What are you talking about! If it were an ordinary beautiful woman, it would be one thing for some thug to harass her, but with your looks and me by your side, a guy who looks like he's rich, even if someone did harass you, they'd probably be after me, okay?" Feng Xue rolled her eyes, took Liu Yunxi's arm, and the two walked towards Temple Street.
Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and there are still many idle people on the streets. Street performers can be seen everywhere, including those playing gongs and monkeys, those performing operas on stages, and of course, there are also storytellers and crosstalk performers at tea stalls and taverns. However, after walking a few steps, Feng Xue felt something was amiss—
"Why are all the stores I've been to displaying Nezha's Havoc in the Sea? Is this joke really that popular?"
"Don't we also have stories like the Monkey King causing havoc in the Dragon Palace and the Eight Immortals crossing the sea?" Liu Yunxi pointed to the teahouse not far away. Although the storyteller was inside, the two of them could still hear the storyteller talking about the Monkey King saying "Too light, too light."
"So you just have to go against the Dragon King, right?" Feng Xue grinned, but Liu Yunxi said:
"Have you forgotten where we are? This is a port city, everyone lives by the sea. If you say the mountains collapse and the earth splits apart, the common people may not understand, but if you say the waves are surging, they will definitely understand. So naturally, you have to say something related to the sea! Otherwise, how can you say a few hundred pounds of golden hammer can kill millions of people a day?"
“That does seem to make sense.” Feng Xue nodded, realizing that it was different from modern storytelling and crosstalk. In ancient times, people had limited access to information. Even in this era of limited access to information, when the literacy rate of ordinary people was still high, their way of understanding the outside world was limited to newspapers. Many jokes could not be understood by ordinary people.
If you talk about fortune tellers in Hainan Island, they mostly won't understand. They have no idea what "old man's leg pain" is, so how can they predict the weather? Similarly, if you talk about throwing durians while tossing melons in the north, most people won't get the joke. Coastal people are exposed to the sea more, so jokes about the sea are obviously easier to understand, and most jokes related to the sea involve the Dragon King.
Feng Xue walked all the way from the south to the north of the city, listening to every single joke. Even so, there were still quite a few people listening at each stall, which only made people lament the lack of entertainment for ordinary people in these days.
Walking and stopping along the way, Feng Xue unknowingly wandered to the entrance of Moyuxuan. It wasn't surprising, since he only knew three places in the entire city: Foreigners' Street, Chicken Cage Village, and the entrance of Moyuxuan.
Upon reaching this point, Liu Yunxi suddenly paused, pointed to the road ahead, and said with a smile:
"Look at the hole you made back then!"
"What do you mean I smashed it? Didn't you smash it?" Feng Xue rolled her eyes, looking at the dark red dent still stuck in the crack in the ground, and was a little speechless. Back then, she could run into thugs just by walking around, and she had almost crossed the entire port, so why hadn't any thugs jumped out yet? Could it be that the underworld forces also take a holiday during the New Year?
As Feng Xue was inwardly complaining, an acquaintance approached and immediately greeted her and her husband.
"Fellow Daoist Feng! Out for a stroll!"
"Long time no see!" Feng Xue greeted Mo Yuxuan, the owner of the shop, with a smile. She had only known him for less than a month, leaving him momentarily speechless. He finally forced a conversation, saying:
"Where are you planning to go, fellow Daoist?"
"I haven't decided yet. You know I'm not familiar with Hong Kong. Do you know which areas here are more chaotic?"
"Is this how you ask for directions?" Upon hearing Feng Xue's question, Boss Mo Yuxuan was completely taken aback. This guy was a troublemaker. He had caused a stir by selling spirit ghosts before, and even Aunt Jiu came to question him. Now he wanted to find a chaotic place again. If it weren't for the fact that he could tell that there was no bloodthirsty aura on him, he would have suspected that he was a demonic cultivator who came out to find energy to practice his skills!
However, it was he who asked where he wanted to go; to make excuses here would seem rather tactless. After thinking for a moment, Boss Mo Yuxuan said:
"There are many new imported goods in the Foreigners' Street area, which you two might find interesting. However, many foreigners are not very polite, so please be careful when you go there."
"Understood!" Feng Xue nodded, thanked her, and led Liu Yunxi toward Foreigners' Street. Looking at Feng Xue's smile, the owner of Mo Yuxuan suddenly felt a little creeped out.
Regardless of what the owner of Moyuxuan was thinking, Feng Xue led Liu Yunxi on a leisurely stroll until they arrived at this Western-style street filled with villas. The street was filled with all sorts of shops, and every now and then, one could see wealthy women with servants carrying large bags, shopping in droves. Just as Feng Xue was wondering if she had seen any hooligans, the sound of a gavel rang in her ears—
"Now, Eurystheus, the king of Greece, set twelve incredible tasks for the demigod Heracles. The seventh of these tasks is to take the head of the Hydra!"
"This serpent demon is an ancient and exotic species, dwelling deep within the Leerna Swamp. It has nine poisonous heads. Ordinary people, let alone kill it, would turn into a pool of pus just by smelling the putrid fumes it spews from its mouth. What's even stranger is that at the point where its head is severed, two heads immediately grow back as soon as the blade flashes. It is truly an inexhaustible demon, an endless source of trouble!"
