"Aren't you afraid that your family will be worried if you come out alone?" As the relationship between the two gradually became more familiar, Duguchi could not help but feel caring for this pretty girl without knowing it.

"What are you talking about? I just came out to relax. Worry, my family won't worry about me." The little girl raised her eyebrows and pouted.

Although Hu Lian'er had a tough talk, his expression could not deceive anyone. He came out to relax, I'm afraid it was just an excuse.

This is the third city that Dugu Chi has seen since coming out of Linghu City. Black Mountain City is also a city established by the Demon Sect. Compared with Linghu City, this city is many times larger.

, and no one else, because the Demon Sect that built this city is infinitely stronger than the previous Tiger Spirit Sect, and the leader of this sect is a quasi-god-level existence.

Quasi-gods, a sect with this level of existence can be considered a mid-level sect in the demon world, and its status is just like the status of Qi Chuang's family in the real underworld.

Therefore, in this Black Mountain City, the pedestrians walking in and out of the market are no longer like those in Huling City before. They are mostly demons with incomplete transformations, but fully transformed demons, accounting for a majority of the total population.

About one-third, this shows that the mainstream of the demon clan in this city are all existences at the level of Jindan or above.

A big city and a big port naturally have the magnanimity of a big city. No matter how majestic the city is, how prosperous the streets are, or how exquisite and dense the buildings are, they are all very different from Huling City. Although it is still far away

It is far inferior to cities of the same level in the spiritual world, but it does not have the backwardness and rudimentary appearance.

At the very least, almost all kinds of businesses have their own shops, and it is rare for people to sell various spiritual materials in the form of wild stalls, and some demon clans who mainly make a living by collecting spiritual materials also

You can sell what you get in a store that specializes in purchasing spiritual materials in exchange for rewards. However, in this way, the price of the same spiritual materials will naturally be much more expensive. The types of the same spiritual materials will also be more abundant.

Many.

"You seem to be in urgent need of spiritual materials. What are you going to do with so many purchases?" Hu Lian'er couldn't help but ask after following Dugu Chi and walking out of a shop.

After the two of them entered Black Rock City, Duguchi took her from shop to shop, and he was very generous with his purchases. He would buy anything he liked, even if it was something very popular in the demon world.

Even though it was a common thing, Hu Lian'er found it extremely strange.

"It's rare to find so many spiritual materials in the harsh mountains. We will always need them for advanced practice in the future, so why not take this opportunity to collect some." Duguchi explained with a smile.

"Huh, another lie." Hu Lian'er didn't believe his explanation at all. She curled her lips and said, "Is it so difficult to implement a sentence from your mouth?"

After hearing her words, Dugu Chi couldn't help but turned his head in a funny way, looked at her intently, and said seriously: "You and I met by chance. Although we have been together for a few days, we don't understand each other at all.

Everyone has their own secrets and cannot be honest with others. I am like this, and girls are like this too."

"In your heart, is it so difficult to trust someone?" Hu Lian'er stared at Dugu Chi with a pair of big black eyes, her eyes full of hope.

"My girl's demands for me are too high, but I didn't know you might trust me?" Duguchi shook his head with a wry smile and kicked the ball back.

"I also want to trust you, but there are many things that I really can't tell you." Hu Lian'er said unconvinced.

"Isn't this different? Girls have secrets that girls can't tell. I don't have secrets that I can't tell."

"Stingy, you are a man, why can't you be more generous?" The girl's unruly temper showed up again.

"This actually has nothing to do with being generous or stingy. I don't force you to tell me your secrets, and I also ask you not to force me to tell you my secrets. If because of this, I think we two can't be friends, then

Please help yourself, girl." The two of them walked all the way, and before they knew it, they arrived at the door of an inn.

Duguchi raised his head and looked at the word "Yue Lai" on the plaque on the door of the inn, and couldn't help but feel a little funny. It seemed that no matter which area the inn was, there were many inns named after this name.

"Do you regard me as a friend? Can two people who hide many secrets from each other be friends?" Hu Lian'er asked excitedly while following Dugu Chi's footsteps and stepping into the inn.

"Hey, sir, you are here. Do you want to stay in a hotel or a hotel?" As soon as he stepped into the store, a sharp-eyed waiter greeted him with a long voice and a smile on his face.

.

"Wait a minute." What the waiter didn't expect was that among the two guests who came in, the young man in white, who was a bit prettier than the women, glared fiercely as if he had taken some medicine.

She glanced at him, causing the rest of his words to get stuck in his throat and unable to come out.

The other young man gave the waiter an apologetic look and told him to wait a moment, then turned his head and looked at the young man who gave birth to a serious female elephant, and said with a smile, "Everyone has their own desires.

If a girl understands a well-known secret, I'm afraid there will be no such word as friend in this world."

Hu Lian'er was speechless after saying this. Taking this opportunity, Dugu Chi turned to the waiter and said, "Prepare two rooms, prepare some food, and bring them to my room later."

"Okay, there are two upper rooms." The waiter got the order and hurried to the counter, asked the shopkeeper for the keys to the two upper rooms, then turned back and led Dugu Chi and the two to their rooms.

.

After entering the room and sending the waiter away, Duguchi and Hu Lian'er sat across from each other.

Seeing Hu Lian'er still looking puzzled, Dugu Chi couldn't help but feel funny. He picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for her and himself. Then he smiled and said: "It seems that the girl's living environment has been too privileged since she was a child.

, I am used to being pampered by my family, and I am not used to being secretive when interacting with others. The same is true for my requirements for others. I think that if I don't do this, I can't be honest. But who knows, the human heart in the world, either intentionally or unintentionally, or

As a last resort, there are always things you should not tell others. If you choose friends based on complete honesty, I'm afraid you won't find any."

"Huh, you are right." At this time, Hu Lian'er actually understood that what Dugu Chi said was right, but she still couldn't save the dignity to admit it frankly. "What you meant when you said that before, we, we have now understood

Are we considered friends?" Hu Lian'er asked weakly, giving Dugu Chi a gentle glance.

"Haha, that's natural. At least I already regard the girl as a friend. As for whether the girl considers me a friend, you have to ask the girl herself." Duguchi couldn't help but feel funny.

This girl is really too simple. When he first met her, in a few words, he made himself owe her an apology feast. At that time, he thought that this girl was a slut, and he had been with her for a long time.

Only then did I realize that that was not the case at all. She was smart and witty, but her understanding of human nature was too simple. In a word, she was simple, smart and simple.

It seems that it is a very happy thing for Dugu Chi to recognize her as a friend. After hearing these words from Dugu Chi, the girl's eyes turned into crescent moons with laughter.

"Ah, then do you think I regard you as a friend?"

Phew, the girl suddenly asked a silly question, which made Dugu Chi spit out the sip of tea he had just taken into his mouth.

God, Dugu Chi looked at this silly and cute girl and felt speechless. He slowly wiped away the water stains on his mouth and tried his best to make a smile: "Whether the other person is your friend depends on whether you are in your heart or not.

I agree, I don’t know if I’m your friend.”

"Hey, I'm also a little confused about whether I consider you a friend or not." Hu Lian'er shook her head cutely, looking puzzled.

In the dead of night, after sending Na Hu Lian'er back to his room, Dugu Chi sat at the table and carefully sorted out the pile of spiritual materials purchased today.

There are always many things in the demon world that are not found in the spiritual world. Perhaps these things are very common in the demon world, but in the spiritual world, they become extremely rare. So today, although the spiritual materials purchased by Dugu Chi can be seen there,

In Hu Lian'er's eyes, it was an extremely ordinary thing, but to him, it was an indispensable material in the formulas of many pills recorded in the pill books, and those pills had not found such materials before.

It has never been born into his hands.

While he was collecting the materials, suddenly, his hand that was picking up the materials stopped in mid-air, and then his whole person turned into a phantom and rushed out of the door.

In Hu Lian'er's room, a middle-aged man in black clothes and a green beard was sitting leisurely in front of the marble-topped pear wood table in the center of the room, and Hu Lian'er was also sitting quietly on this green-bearded man.

On the round stool on the left hand. This scene was the first scene Duguchi saw after rushing into the room.

After releasing his clenched fist, Dugu Chi glanced at Hu Lian'er, and the expression on his face became calm.

"It's great. You were able to discover my existence in such a short time. It's just that your behavior seems a bit unwise. People who protect themselves wisely will always live longer than reckless men who are aggressive." The green-bearded man.

He glanced at Dugu Chi lightly, but no one noticed that there was a hint of appreciation and a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Junior is just worried about my friend. Since I know she is not in danger, I will leave now." As he spoke, Duguchi bowed his hands to the green-bearded man and was about to retreat. What the green-bearded man said was,
Chapter completed!
