When Ye Yu entered the courtyard with the little black dog in his arms, he caught up with Aunt Wang who was going out.
When Aunt Wang saw the creature in Ye Yu's arms, she froze for a moment: "Miss Ye Yu, this is..."
Ye Yu's expression was serious: "I didn't find the firewood, so I brought a wild game back for business."
"..."
The ears of the little black dog in Ye Yu's arms moved, and Aunt Wang looked at her disapprovingly.
Only then did Ye Yu briefly talk about what she saw on the mountain, but she naturally omitted the process of using the "fortune-telling" ability to spy on the boy's life.
"It's such a small one, and the injury is not serious. If it meets other people, it might be stewed as wild game." Ye Yu said: "So I want to take it back to recuperate for a while. If you mind, ma'am, I'm just going to move out with this little guy."
"If I couldn't even tolerate it, I wouldn't have brought you back as a living person. Besides, it's good to keep a dog at home. It's fun to be with me, an old woman."
"I knew auntie that you are the most soft-hearted." Ye Yu chuckled, "When the little guy grows up, I'll let him have a litter for you, which will be more lively!"
"..." The aunt looked at the dog in Ye Yu's arms in surprise, "Is this still a female dog?"
The little black dog in Ye Yu's arms froze.
Ye Yu didn't notice it, and only recalled it, then shook his head regretfully:
"male."
Early the next morning, before Ye Yu was going to the magic city, he brought the little black dog who was still a little weak.
The little guy was docile at first, but after discovering Ye Yu's whereabouts, he began to struggle hard.
It's a pity that it is still very weak at this time, and it's hard to say whether it can stand up, so it was suppressed by Ye Yu's two fingers after struggling for a while.
After several failed resistances, the little black dog finally gave up and lay humiliated in Ye Yu's arms.
"Stop making noise?"
Ye Yu stretched out his fingers, and stroked back and forth between the little black dog's pointed ears.
The little black dog shook his head, trying to shake off Ye Yu's fingertips.
"Yo, the dog is not big, and the temper is not small?"
Ye Yu laughed and teased it.
The little black dog didn't pay any attention to her, still lying on the ground so listlessly.
"The dog that bit Lu Dongbin is the ancestor of your dog, right? Otherwise, how can you be as virtuous as it?" Ye Yu joked, "I hugged you just to take you to the Spiritual Beast Pavilion in the Demon City for medical treatment. Do you think five or six catties is light?"
Ye Yu didn't intend to communicate with this little black dog, but because it was too boring to travel alone, so he explained it.
But what surprised her was that after she finished explaining, the little black dog in her arms raised her head as if she understood, and gave her a suspicious look.
This glance made Ye Yu amused—
"Can you really understand me?"
"Woo..."
The little black dog nodded, then shook his head again.
Ye Yu pondered for a few seconds, then his eyes lit up: "Some people understand, some don't?"
The little black dog hesitated for a while this time, then nodded.
"Interesting," Ye Yu said with a smile, "The dogs here are so spiritual, so people can practice."
This time, the little black dog's eyes became confused, as if he couldn't understand what Ye Yu was saying.
Ye Yu thought for a while: "How can you say that you are also a creature that can understand human speech, and it's not good to call a little guy—how about I give you a name?"
"..." The little black dog obviously showed resistance.
Ye Yu: "How about 'Ergouzi'?"
"..."
"Don't like it? I think this name is very good, what a temperament."
"Woo!"
"Hey, why are you so resistant? Then let me think about it... Hey, there, how about rhubarb?"
"Wooooow!"
"I don't like this either? I really have no aesthetic level..."
One person and one dog "discussed" the naming issue along the way, and they didn't stop until they entered the magic city.
Ye Yu was not in a hurry to go to the Anxiang Tea House, but went straight to the Spirit Beast Pavilion with the little black dog.
Spiritual Beast Pavilions are widely distributed in the Immortal Demon Continent, and this one in the Demon City is just a branch of it. It has many businesses including buying and selling spirit beasts, so it is not a problem to see a disease or heal a spirit beast.
After entering inside and explaining his purpose, Ye Yu was led to a separate small compartment. The old man sitting behind the desk raised his eyelids and glanced at the little black dog.
Ye Yu clearly felt that following the old man's gaze, a strange aura swept over the little black dog.
Ye Yu's eyes flickered slightly.
... Is this still a cultivator? And even if it is, why can I feel that strange breath
Ye Yu's thoughts were scattered, and he didn't notice that the little black dog in his arms was surprisingly quiet at the moment.
After a while, the old man withdrew his gaze, "Madam, please sit down—"
Before he could say the last word, he found that Ye Yu had already sat down.
Facing the astonished eyes of the old man, Ye Yu paused for a few seconds.
A few seconds later, seeing that the other party still hadn't recovered, Ye Yu thoughtfully asked, "How about I stand back?"
"..."
The old man's expression turned awkward, but he quickly covered it up and brought the topic to the little black dog. "Although it was seriously injured, it can recover naturally, but it will take longer. And I don't think it's full of spiritual energy, so it shouldn't be a spirit beast—girl, do you really want my spirit beast pavilion to heal it?"
Ye Yu's tone was sincere: "Otherwise, why am I here?"
The old man gritted his teeth and smiled: "... I will sell it in the Spirit Beast Pavilion, and the price will not be low."
"Your Excellency, have you ever heard of Ye Banxian from Anxiang Tea House?"
Ye Yu turned his head suddenly, but after the old man was stunned for a moment, he reacted very quickly. He looked Ye Yu up and down, his expression slightly different: "Could it be that the girl is...?"
Ye Yu nodded calmly.
The old man had heard about the name of the half-immortal who was in the limelight a long time ago. Thinking that he questioned that the other party might not be able to pay the price for the treatment, he couldn't help but feel guilty, and apologized:
"It's the old me—"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Yu picked up first—
"Since I've heard of it, can you give it a little cheaper?"
Old man: "..."
Seeing the other party's expression was stiff, Ye Yu continued his efforts, and his tone became more and more sincere: "Next time you come to my place, I can also give you a discount."
"..."
Half an hour later, Ye Yu walked out of the Spirit Beast Pavilion with the little black dog in his arms, and sighed as he walked—
"A bunch of stubborn people who don't even understand mutual benefit—how do you think they've managed to make such a big business?"
The little black dog didn't respond, and it took a few seconds before he straightened up and whined a few times at her.
"What do you want to say? I don't understand dog language."
The little black dog didn't give up, and gestured again.
Ye Yu felt something: "Do you think it's too expensive?"
"..." The little black dog seemed a little unwilling, but he nodded slowly.
"It's really not cheap, and it's not worth selling you." Ye Yu said.
The little black dog glared at her angrily.
Ye Yu smiled and rolled his eyes: "But I'm willing, no matter what those old stubborn people say."
The little black dog was taken aback.
Ye Yu followed his gaze, "Speaking of which, it's a pity that the five hundred taels I've saved for more than a month will be gone. I have to commemorate it—then why don't you just call it 'five hundred taels'?"
"Woooo!!"
"The protest is invalid, so it's settled." Ye Yu laughed. "But as a dog, how can you whine? Shouldn't it be bark? — Be good, let me hear you bark twice."
"..."
Five hundred taels humiliated and lay back, tail drooping, and stopped talking to Ye Yu.
The guests who came here admiring the name of "Half Immortal" waited for more than an hour in the Anxiang teahouse, only to see that Miss Ye arrived with a little black dog in her arms.
"Oh, Miss Ye, why did you come here today?"
The waiter, who was being rushed by the customers, saw Ye Yu from a long distance away, and rushed up to meet Ye Yu in three steps at a time.
Ye Yu waved his hand.
"Something is delayed."
"The guests who are begging for your divination have been waiting anxiously for a long time."
"Wait often, practice your mind, how good it is. I won't charge this tuition fee." Ye Yu walked into the teahouse frankly with five hundred taels in his arms.
The corner of the waiter's mouth twitched. He said it was thanks to the guests who had been waiting for more than an hour for not hearing it, otherwise, if the state of Qi is not high enough, after hearing such unconscious remarks, he might really faint with anger.
Even though he complained so much in his heart, the waiter hurriedly followed in.
Inside the teahouse, Ye Yu walked to the table where he always stayed, put the little black dog in his arms next to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and sat down.
Those people came together one after another:
"Master Ye, what kind of spirit beast is this?"
"Look at your question, if Master Ye can see it, it must be a spirit beast!"
"Hiss... why does the more I look at this, the more I look like a dog?"
"That's your blindness—if I say it's at least a canine spirit beast!"
The people around were arguing hilariously, but Ye Yu ignored it. She stroked the little black dog that was staring at those people with its dark eyes:
"How about it, do you feel lucky to be a dog when you are with me?"
"..."
Wubailiang looked at her with contempt.
Ye Yu didn't care too much, she gave the waiter a wink, and began to prepare her own routine for the first hexagram.
It's just that this morning's hexagram was not going well. Before the first person finished, a group of people in armor and carrying swords and halberds stepped into the teahouse.
The waiter hurriedly went up to greet him: "What can you do?"
"Under the order of Xuan Bin, the great general of the Demon Realm, arrest the assassin who entered the palace. This teahouse is a place where fish and dragons are mixed together. It cannot be ignored. Let us check it out!"
The waiter in the shop didn't dare to offend when he heard the words, so he responded quickly. And the other guests in the teahouse dared not speak out.
——This Demon Realm is different from the Immortal Realm. The Demon Palace has always been in charge of the entire territory. It really angered these people, and no one can please them.
After a while, the team searched the entire teahouse, and finally returned to the leader.
Ye Yu observed the other party's expression, but obviously found nothing.
Then she heard the man tell the shop waiter: "If you meet anyone with a left leg injury, you must report it, understand?"
"Yes yes yes..." the waiter in the shop responded repeatedly.
That team left.
Ye Yu paused in thought for a moment.
— If she remembers correctly, it was the left hind leg that was fractured at five hundred taels
It's just that after this thought passed by, Ye Yu laughed at himself again.
This is because there have been too many weird things recently, making her start to think wildly.
Ye Yu shook his head and laughed at himself, but he didn't notice that he was lying on the table curiously looking at her fortune-telling five hundred taels, but now he was looking at the leaving team of soldiers, his eyes were full of coldness.
