Foot of the mountain, the ticket office.
During the conference, Emei closed its tourist channel and cancelled the ticket sales for the scenic spots open to ordinary people. However, this didn’t mean that the demon descendants who come to the conference didn’t have to buy tickets.
At the most marginal window of the ticket booth, a middle-aged monk, dressed in a robe, clasped his hands and prayed while looking down. He ignored the aggressive young men and women outside the window. However, the monk knew that this was only the calm before the storm, and the next round would begin soon.
Li Xianyu took a deep breath. “OK, I can pay $8,000 for a ticket, but why does a cat need to buy a ticket too? Where is your sense of benevolence? Aren’t all of you pure? Your heart is black.”
In the face of persecution, the monk did not change his expression and stood firm. “Foreign species are demon descendants as well, so we should treat them equally. Lianghua temple is just fulfilling the concept of equality of all beings.”
“Did you forget to be compassionate?”
“Benefactor, what does compassion have to do with you not buying tickets?”
“Monk, you see, I’ll buy a ticket for the cat, but you can give us a 50% discount.”
“Hur.”
“What do you mean by hur?”
“Benefactor, you are ugly, but dream on.”
Li Xianyu touched the mask on his face. “If 50% off can’t be done, 20% off is also enough.”
The monk said, “Hur hur.”
The argument was fruitless and the bargaining was not successful. Li Xianyu looked at Cui Hua, who posed elegantly for the camera, as well as Great-Grandma, who was growing impatient. “Is there no discount?”
The monk said seriously, “There is.”
Li Xianyu’s eyes brightened. “How so?”
The monk shook his head. “Benefactor, what I say may hurt people a little, but I hope you don’t get angry.”
Li Xianyu nodded.
The middle-aged monk showed a very cheap smile. “Do you think you are Unparalleled War Spirit?”
Li Xianyu was speechless.
At this time, I should take off my mask and let him see my real face. However, considering the cheap bargaining just now, his pride had fallen. Li Xianyu paid $24,000 painful and bought three tickets.
“You should have paid earlier. What a load of crap,” Great-Grandma reprimanded him in a low voice.
“When a woman is in charge, the house collapses,” Li Xianyu whispered.
“What did you say?” Great-Grandma frowned.
“Because I want to save money for Great-Grandma,” Li Xianyu immediately changed his words.
Eight thousand dollars for one ticket. Li Xianyu felt that his IQ was insulted. This was obviously daylight robbery. The heart of Lianghua temple was really dark.
Given the current prices of goods, the tickets were a rip-off.
“Buddhism has always been like this, and the means of collecting money has been like this since ancient times.” Hua Yang came out of his body and condensed into a solid body. As a Taoist disciple, she had a lot of disdain towards Buddhism.
Li Xianyu had entered into a contract with her. She was now one of the pendants on Li Xianyu, able to absorb the essence of the host and gather the entity for a short time. Of course, in essence, her state had not changed. She couldn’t enjoy food like Great-Grandma.
Li Xianyu thought to himself, I can’t go on like that. Great-Grandma is enough already. With Mother Hua Yang, won’t I be sucked dry?
So, they talked about it. Great-Grandma would suck him sperm, and Hua Yang would suck his qi. Splitting the dew would stabilise the harem.
“It’s better to be a Taoist. The Taoist people are just like Mother Hua Yang.” Li Xianyu continued his flattery.
Hua Yang smiled.
Thanks to his thick-skinned personality and his habitual pushy face, Hua Yang’s liking for Li Xianyu had greatly increased over the past few days, as if he were her own son. However, there was always sadness between her eyebrows. She looked at Li Xianyu with sadness and nostalgia from time to time.
I don’t think she has walked out of the shadow of my father’s death.
There were no cable cars on the mountain road leading to Lianghua temple. Some of the demon descendants hiked on the mountain. Some of them were dressed simply. Some of them were bright. Some of them were even dressed as old farmers in the fields.
Li Xianyu gave Hua Yang a mask. “Keep a low profile, everyone.”
He was like a star traveling. Without bodyguards, they had to wear sunglasses and masks, otherwise it would cause a sensation. Of course, Li Xianyu didn’t have this weight, but Great-Grandma did. The identity of Hua Yang was also very sensitive. Her elder sister was now the chief of Liuyun temple.
Before meeting with the company’s elders, he had to be discreet and not too ostentatious.
Halfway up the mountain, there was a temporary business district. The bald-headed people of Lianghua temple were very good at business. They rented stalls to businessmen, but they can only sell things that Buddhism did not permit, such as meat and fishy food. Other necessary materials would be contracted by Lianghua temple itself.
Compared with Buddhism, Taoism was much poorer in general, although they also had their own industries. The teachings of Taoism focused on not being affected by emotions, as well as tracing back to one’s roots. They were China’s earliest otakus.
Buddhism was more familiar amongst the masses. It was better than Taoism in terms of making money, since Buddhism interacted with the masses more frequently.
On the mountainside, Great-Grandma took Hua Yang to buy food happily. Li Xianyu stood on the steps and shouted to the rear, “Cui Hua! Hurry up!”
The demon descendants stopped to take pictures. Every time there was a camera, Cui Hua would stay in place, put on an elegant, proud and cold posture, or lick her paws in a cute and playful manner. Sometimes, she took the initiative to rub the camera lens.
“Coming.” Cui Hua was discontented. She raised her tail and followed the crowd.
Great-Grandma sat in front of a noodle stall and ordered one bowl for everyone. Li Xianyu asked, “Where’s Mother Hua Yang’s?”
Great-Grandma said, “She doesn’t have to eat, and she can’t eat.”
Li Xianyu answered in a serious manner, “We still have to order a bowl. We can’t let Mother Hua Yang look at us like that.”
Hua Yang was moved. The noodles were not cooked yet, Li Xianyu wandered around alone. There were stalls providing food and materials everywhere. Hence, a book stand stood out not far away.
There were many people squatting at the bookstall. Li Xianyu went over to join the party. The stall owner was a middle-aged man, sitting cross legged. The books on the stall were all related to the demon descendants’ community, which was a great gimmick.
At one glance, Li Xianyu could see many attractive titles: “The real coordinates of the Great Deities Palace”, “Analysis: What did Li Wuxiang obtain from the Great Deities Palace”, “Disaster in the Northeast: The rise and fall of a family”, and “Romances of the Unparalleled War Spirit”.
Hmmm? Great-Grandma’s affairs?! Li Xianyu pushed the crowd away, picked up the book and looked through it. The book’s contents were the author’s conjecture and reverie about the Unparalleled War Spirit, as well as her wild history. There was a suspicion that the book was bogus. The author fabricated some ambiguous details between her and her descendants. The description was detailed, which made people imagine and fantasise a lot.
“Boss, how much do you sell these books for?” Li Xianyu said.
“One hundred dollars per book. Oh, yours is unique. That’s $200,” the middle-aged boss said.
Oh? There were books of a higher status? “Boss, you are brave indeed. You dare to sell this kind of thing without fear of being hammered to death?” Li Xianyu said in a muffled voice.
“This is nothing. The big shots are above us. How can they care about common people like us?” The boss didn’t care as he continued, “I have the books and novels of Buddha Head, the Taoist heads, and the top ten demon descendant beauties in the world.”
“Is there anything more exciting?” Li Xianyu asked.
“There is no such thing. I dare not sell it here.” The boss shook his head.
“How much did you say?”
The boss thought about it and called Li Xianyu to his side. He whispered, “There is no book, but there is a comic of Unparalleled War Spirit. I have a whole set here. Do you want it?”
Li Xianyu replied, “Let me see the goods first.”
The boss quickly shook his head and said, “No. If you want, take it, don’t say you bought it from me. I don’t want to die.”
His desire for survival was still strong.
“How can I know if I don’t check the goods?”
“They were imported from Hong Kong, we can’t draw them in mainland China.”
The so-called complete set of books was the story of the Unparalleled War Spirit and her descendants. The heroine was not similar to Great-Grandma. Great-Grandma was an 18-year-old girl. The heroine in the comic was a female with a subpar figure. The author had just used her name. The male protagonists were musclemen, and the style indeed resembled that of Hong Kong artists.
As a legend of the demon descendants’ community, the Unparalleled War Spirit was an excellent source material for comics. The books belonged to the kind where demon descendants would be tempted to buy it after viewing it. The sales volume was high.
The most famous beauties in the demon descendants’ community had their own comic series as well, apart from the Unparalleled War Spirit.
For the first time, Li Xianyu came into contact with the underground industry of the demon descendants’ community. He spent $2,000 to buy a whole set of comics, tore up the sections of all of the descendants and threw them into the garbage can, retaining the part on the current descendant.
“What were you doing?” Great-Grandma said as she slurped on her noodles.
Bought a copy of your comic… . Li Xianyu said, “Nothing, just looking around.”
The price of beef noodles was 220 dollars a bowl. The meal for two people, one spirit and one beast cost 880 dollars in total. Cui Hua’s beef noodles didn’t have soup. It was eating in small mouthfuls.
“Cui Hua, do you want to be human?” Li Xianyu said.
“No way,” Cui Hua remarked.
“Because you’re ugly?”
“Yeah,” Cui Hua said. “I don’t look good.”
“All right.”
In fact, he looked forward to Cui Hua transforming into a human. Although he couldn’t accept a man beast, it didn’t prevent him from looking forward to the beauty of Cui Hua. In the demon descendants’ community, man-beasts were the norm. Some humans had a few mistresses who were foreign species. Some of them even married foreign species directly.
I often don’t fit in with you guys because I’m not abnormal enough.
After eating the noodles, they continued to ascend the mountain. They entered the temple, and according to the road signs, they made their way to the registration office.
Lianghua temple had built a shed with 20 computers inside. The monks were responsible for registration and maintenance of order. The shed was densely populated.
“Hi, hi. Look this way.” As they reached the place, two girls holding milk tea waved excitedly.
You Mengyu and Xia Xiaoxue, who he hadn’t seen for a long time.
“Are you here to sign up, too?” Li Xianyu greeted them with a smile. “I wear a mask and yet, you can recognise me?”
Xia Xiaoxue pointed to his glove. “You took a picture for us before.”
You Mengyu had a longing expression of longing. “Of course, this is the Forum Conference. There are many experts. There is no place more interesting than here. I can’t help shivering when I think of being abused by heroes in turn.”
“By the way, do you drink milk tea?” Xia Xiaoxue put forward a big bag of milk tea from her wallet. “I bought it before I came to Emei. Happy Lemon, Coco, Typhoon Shelter, a little… You can choose it yourself.”
“Where’s Old Liu?” Li Xianyu asked.
You Mengyu pointed to the large crowd. “He’s queuing up inside. When he reaches the front of the queue, we will join him.”
A very Chinese way of queuing…
“I want to drink, too.” Cui Hua’s paws clawed at his trouser legs. It raised his head, and looked serious.
Li Xianyu tore the seal apart, squatted down, and tilted the milk tea cup. Cui Hua licked it, was stunned, and then licked it again. Suddenly, it squinted happily.
“That’s a magical cat. Can I hold you?” Xia Xiaoxue squatted down and reached out. Cui Hua didn’t lift her head and gave her a paw.
“So fierce.” Xia Xiaoxue dodged and stuck out her tongue.
You Mengyu’s eyes brightened.
Li Xianyu said to her in lip language, “Lift her right leg.”
You Mengyu’s eyes brightened even more. She pretended to approach her as if nothing happened. She squatted down and raised her right leg while Cui Hua was unprepared.
“Hiss!” Cui Hua immediately blew up and chased after You Mengyu.
You Mengyu screamed excitedly, holding her head and scurrying around. No one tried to stop her at all, knowing that she enjoyed it.
“Cui Hua is my new partner. She’s very powerful.”
“This… Is my Mother Hua Yang,” Li Xianyu said.
“Mother Hua Yang?” Xia Xiaoxue nodded and smiled. “Hello, Auntie.”
There were so many instances of polygamy in the demon descendants’ community. As long as one’s fist was hard enough, one could do whatever one wanted. It was no surprise that Li Xianyu had a Mother Hua Yang.
Hua Yang nodded slightly.
Li Xianyu was aware that someone was paying attention to him. He looked sideways. Not far away, there was a hot girl with a gun on her back, staring at him.
The girl grinned at him, showing her white teeth. She was very beautiful.
“Strange woman, I don’t know her.” Li Xianyu frowned. The other party’s eyes were like as if she had met a long-time friend, but he didn’t know her.
He was puzzled. Suddenly, he heard a chorus of cheers from the crowd. It was similar to those screams where fans had met their idols.
Foot of the mountain, the ticket office.
