#124 - This is the first time I have seen such a big treasure.

Early in the morning, Xu Ming and Tianxuan Goose left the inn and headed towards another direction in Baiwa City.

"Excuse me, do you know a man named Shen Sheng?"

"Excuse me, do you know a man named Shen Sheng, about my height, and of similar build?"

While walking forward, Xu Ming asked the passersby.

Later, Xu Ming felt that asking like this was too foolish, so he simply relied on his memory to draw a portrait and used this portrait to find the person.

Xu Ming's drawing skills were average, and the time was relatively long, so Xu Ming felt that this portrait he drew was only about 60-70% similar to Shen Sheng himself.

However, all the "people" Xu Ming asked did not know who Shen Sheng was.

The only "person" who said, "I know who Shen Sheng is" was a black widow spider.

This spider's purpose was to trick Xu Ming into its Pansidong (Spider Cave), and then do some shameful things with Xu Ming.

Xu Ming directly beat it up after knowing this.

What a joke.

Did he have such heavy tastes?

I wouldn't even touch a gorilla, let alone a spider.

Not to mention that black widows eat their husbands, who could handle that?

After walking for most of the day, Xu Ming asked no less than a hundred people, but no one knew anyone named Shen Sheng.

At noon, Xu Ming took Tianxuan Goose to a noodle stall for lunch.

The owner of the noodle stall was a giant lizard.

This lizard looked a bit like the largest lizard on Blue Planet.

What was it called?

Xu Ming had somewhat forgotten.

Looking at the chunks of meat in the noodle bowl, Xu Ming was quite worried, wondering if it was 'two-legged sheep' meat (human meat).

However, Xu Ming secretly glanced into the back kitchen with his Dao Pattern Eyes and confirmed that it was indeed genuine beef, and the beef even had marbling.

It had to be said, the taste was really good.

"Boss, you use beef here, doesn't Brother Cow have any objections?" Xu Ming asked the boss when paying the bill.

Opposite this small noodle stall was a clothing store, and inside the store, a yellow cow was selling things.

"What objections could there be?"

The boss glared at Xu Ming.

"Beasts and demons are two different concepts. As long as an animal hasn't developed intelligence, it's not the same species as us demons! That cow wouldn't possibly hold a grudge against me because of a beast without wisdom.

Of course, if you insist on saying it, the old cow selling clothes is definitely unhappy that I make beef vermicelli and beef offal soup, but so what? He can't beat me anyway.

If he provokes me, I'll use his bullwhip to make soup."

Xu Ming: "."

Xu Ming didn't expect this boss to be so tough.

"Speaking of which, you haven't been in our Baiwa City for long, have you?" the lizard boss asked.

"That's right," Xu Ming nodded. "I just came in yesterday."

"No wonder," Brother Lizard knocked on the tobacco pipe in his hand and exhaled a white ring. "It's been about fifty years since I've seen a human come in. Kid, you have to be careful. In our Baiwa City, there are still many demons who like the taste of human flesh. Don't get turned into a dish."

"Thank you for the reminder," Xu Ming cupped his fist in a salute, and then suddenly realized that the other party seemed to be very old. "You said that no one has come in here for fifty years, may I ask how old you are?"

Brother Lizard chuckled: "Old Lizard, I'm already two hundred years old. The brothers and sisters in Baiwa City give me face and call me Lizard the First."

"Then do you know a person named Shen Sheng?" Xu Ming asked, and then took out the portrait he had drawn. "He looks about like this."

This Lizard Brother was two hundred years old, perhaps he really had heard of him.

"Let me take a look," Brother Lizard leaned in for a closer look. "Why does this person look a little familiar?"

"Shen Sheng... Shen Sheng... Shen Sheng..."

Brother Lizard muttered Shen Sheng's name.

"Oh, I remember!" Brother Lizard tapped the counter with his tobacco pipe. "It's that couple."

Xu Ming was overjoyed, not expecting that he really asked about it.

"Lizard Brother, can you tell me more details?" Xu Ming placed a few pieces of silver on the table.

Brother Lizard silently accepted it: "There's nothing much to say. Should it be a hundred years ago? Or how many years ago? I hadn't opened this beef offal stall yet, and I was laying bricks in a courtyard in the north of the city.

Then at that time, a couple moved next door to this old man.

The man was skinny like you, but his wife was quite good-looking.

They were looking for a way out, but in my opinion, they definitely wouldn't find it.

But they were really nice people, especially the man's wife. After making some pastries, she often invited the neighbors to eat.

As a result, unexpectedly, a year later, they said they had found a way out.

They said something about setting up some kind of formation on the night of the full moon, but I didn't understand it.

But before the night of the full moon, they disappeared. I don't know if they left, or if they disappeared like others."

"Lizard Brother, can you tell me where they lived at that time?" Xu Ming asked.

Xu Ming had already confirmed that the time flow in this place was indeed different from the outside world.

Shen Sheng was not even thirty years old, and this Lizard Brother said he saw Shen Sheng more than a hundred years ago. The only explanation was that the time flow here was a hundred times faster than the outside world.

"That's nothing, but more than a hundred years have passed, and that place has long been occupied by someone else. If you want to go, then go, just say you're a friend of mine, Lizard the First."

Brother Lizard pointed the way forward with his tobacco pipe.

"Keep going straight, when you see a big banyan tree, then turn right, turn left at the first corner, and then go straight for about half a kilometer, and you'll be there."

Xu Ming cupped his fists and bowed: "Thank you."

Just as Xu Ming was heading towards the courtyard where Shen Sheng lived "a hundred years ago."

At the city gate of Baiwa City, one cultivator after another walked in.

In addition to human cultivators, there were also many demons.

They were all following the orders of their sects to come to Baiwa City to carry out a mission to seize a rare treasure.

The people of Baiwa City were puzzled.

It had been about fifty years since they had seen outsiders, how could so many come all at once?

Outside Baiwa City, a black dog and a Bifang bird looked at this city, very melancholy:

"Dead dog! It's all your fault for being so slow! That Xu Ming entered this city! Our realms are too high to enter! What to do?" Bifang stomped on the black dog's head, bouncing up and down.

"Don't worry, don't worry," the black dog's head was being stomped little by little. "They will eventually come out, but speaking of which..."

The black dog looked at the city wall arranged with barriers: "This is the first time I've seen such a big treasure."
