There is a big difference between Taotie City and Leviathan City. Just like Leviathan is a giant beast from Western mythology, Taotie City with the Eastern Taotie as its totem has a strong Chinese style, with pavilions and pavilions everywhere.
.However, unlike the traditional style of the main city of Huaxia District where all beasts report good luck, in Taotie City, you can basically only see Taotie!
Various gluttonous statues and patterns are almost everywhere in the Taotie City. Here, you can see various gluttonous statues with different expressions at any time! Even though many gluttonous statues are clearly two different forms.
They are different things, but the strange thing is that when you look at these things, you will naturally think that it is a Taotie! Whether it is a majestic and sacred beast or a ferocious and violent monster, in the minds of the people of Taotie City, these are all
It's Taotie! In a sense, this shows that the people of Taotie City have faith and worship in Taotie, which is similar to the ever-changing flow of God!
Sitting on the gorgeous carriage, Lin Zheng's eyes fell on the buildings on both sides of the street from time to time. Looking at the various gluttons, Lin Zheng couldn't help but admire him. Even if he is an artistic idiot, here, he
You can still feel the artistic heritage accumulated by these Taotie! He turned around and smiled at Vanessa: "Lily, has anyone counted how many Taotie there are in Taotie City?"
"Don't mention it, it's true!" Vanessa smiled faintly, "There is a great painter in Qizhi City, named Mana. When she was young, Mana traveled to the Taotie City and was attracted by the various forms of gluttony here.
Mana spent ten years using her own paintbrush to describe the various gluttonous foods that were scattered throughout the streets of Gluttonous City. By the time she left Gluttonous City, the house she rented was already filled with all kinds of gluttonous foods.
Taotie's paintings, and these paintings were all donated to the fifth family at the request of the fifth family. Later, it was calculated that there were 8,695 types in total. Although there is definitely a gap between the real number, but it is probably only about 9,000.
Plant around this range!"
Lin Zheng was stunned when he heard that there were about 9,000 kinds of gluttony in one city alone. This was simply unbelievable. "Sure enough, the common people are the real creators of history and culture!"
"Of course!" Vanessa said with great agreement, "The same is true for music. If you are separated from the people, you will never be able to create truly moving melodies!"
After hearing this, Lin Zheng said with a smile: "Our Lily is a leader in the music industry. If Lily says yes, it must be yes!"
"Go! Just kill me!" Vanessa said with a smile. Of course, her brother Yiping's simple and explicit admiration was very useful to her!
After patting Lin Zheng with a smile, Vanessa said: "Okay, brother Yiping, stop fooling around, we are about to go to the fifth house, don't let people underestimate you!" She didn't care about Yiping.
What's my brother's temper? But if others underestimate my man, "I will be angry at that time. If I beat him up, the impact will not be good!"
How else could she be the daughter-in-law of the old Lin family?! He hugged Vanessa and kissed her in a rare way, and then said seriously: "Don't worry, after all, I have been a serious demon king for a long time!"
"Sir! You have always been the Demon King!"
"Now isn't this a failure to stay in your seat honestly?"
While joking, the carriage pulled by the dragon horse arrived in front of the palace of Taotie City. Before entering the city, Vanessa had already sent people to Taotie City to inform them. Although they arrived unexpectedly, Vanessa
As a celebrity in the demon world, whether it is her status as a music master or her status as the actual ruler of Leviathan City, now that she has received notice of her visit, no matter how puzzled the fifth family is, the due etiquette cannot be omitted.
!So, when Vanessa and the others arrived in front of the palace, a grand guard of honor had already been laid out!
The black knight transformed by Lin Zheng stepped out of the carriage first, and then reached out to help Vanessa out of the carriage. After the maids they transformed into, Feite and Ibis, came down, Lin Zheng took Vanessa's hand.
Holding their hands, the two of them walked towards the head of the fifth family who greeted them with big smiles on their faces.
The head of the fifth family is a gray-haired old man. He is dressed simply but quite elegantly. Although he is holding a Taotie staff, he still looks very energetic! What a sin. He is already an old man.
He is an old man, but he is forced to come out and take charge of the overall situation by a group of unscrupulous descendants!
As soon as Lin Zheng and Lin Zheng stepped forward, the old man laughed heartily, "I don't know that Miss Leviathan's visit was a little delayed. I made such hasty preparations that I made many mistakes. Please forgive me!"
Vanessa smiled decently and said, "Old Patriarch, you're welcome. Lily's coming to Taotie City this time was just a casual move. It was Lily who was abrupt!" Then she introduced Lin Zheng beside her, "This
It’s Lily’s husband, Lin Yiping!”
Hearing Vanessa's introduction, the old patriarch and his descendants were a little surprised, but the old patriarch quickly came to his senses and said to Lin Zheng with a smile: "Mr. Yiping, I'm glad to meet you!"
"Old patriarch, you're welcome!" Lin Zheng said with a faint smile: "You are much older than me and Lily, so you are the elder we are waiting for. Please just call us by our names, there is no need to be so polite!"
Lin Zheng didn't know what was so funny about what he said. Anyway, after hearing this, the old patriarch burst into laughter immediately, and then said: "In that case, old man, I'm being hypocritical. Girl Lili, boy Yiping, please come inside and have a banquet."
It has been prepared for you, and you can taste the unique delicacies of our Taotie City!"
"Then Lily, we are looking forward to it!"
"I will definitely not disappoint you, haha! Go inside!"
Under the warm invitation of the old patriarch, Lin Zheng and the others stepped into the palace of the fifth family and accepted the banquet hosted by the fifth family! The old man did not brag about the delicacies, and presented them in front of Lin Zheng and the others.
The dishes here are all delicious, delicious and exciting! Well, how else can we call them gourmet?! Sure enough, they are very good at eating!
The old patriarch also proudly boasted to Lin Zheng and the others that Taotie City is the number one gourmet capital in all the worlds. Here, you can taste the best delicacies from all over the world, which you can never imagine.
, there is no delicacy that Taotie City cannot do, that is quite domineering! However, judging from the delicacies that Lin Zheng and the others have tasted so far, it seems that they really have such confidence.
Well! Lin Zheng thinks that next time he comes here, he should bring Brünnhilde and Yuyuko with him. They will like it very much!
After drinking and eating, the old patriarch invited Lin Zheng and Vanessa to come and see his food reserves. It could be seen that the old man was very enthusiastic. He was not polite, but wanted to show off his food collection to outsiders.
, after all, is it a good thing? How much sense of accomplishment you can get by keeping it to yourself, you must let others see it. Only when others express their amazement can you gain a huge sense of satisfaction.
The treasure house of food reserves is a small world created by the old patriarch himself. Here, there are ponds, fruit trees, running rare birds and animals, and seemingly simple farmland. At a glance, it is full of extremely rich pastoral colors.
, coupled with the working farmers, it is simply a beautiful scene in a paradise.
Instead of letting the younger generations follow him, the old man personally took Lin Zheng and the others around his farmland. After happily introducing a bunch of rare crops to Lin Zheng and the others, the group of people came to a clear pond and pointed.
In the pond, the old patriarch said proudly: "What is cultivated here is the Nether Silver Bass from the Netherworld. This thing is very rare and elusive. I spent a lot of money to get it from Tianhui Trading Company to the end."
I bought a pair in my hands!"
As he said that, the old patriarch looked at the pond with fond eyes and said: "I have been raising fish for more than ten years. Looking at the current size, I guess it won't be long before fish roes are produced. I just don't know about this thing.
What is the survival rate of caviar?”
Hearing this, Lin Zheng blinked, stared at the pond and said, "Well, old patriarch, are you sure the pond is filled with Netherworld Silver Bass?"
"Of course!" the old patriarch said very confidently, "The goods I personally inspected are correct! Here, let me show you the style of this baby!" After saying that, the old patriarch raised his hand, and suddenly there was a one meter long one.
The long silver bass flew up from the water, with its mouth full of sharp teeth, ferocious eyes, and shiny metallic fish scales. Well, it did look the same as the Netherworld Silver Bass that Yang Qi once caught. However, this size
…
"I said to the old patriarch, your pond needs to be expanded!"
The old patriarch nodded, "Expansion is needed, but not now, until the fish roe develops into fry!"
Lin Zheng couldn't laugh or cry for a while, "Have you ever seen a mature Nether Silver Bass?" After saying that, Lin Zheng handed a photo to the old patriarch. After the old patriarch took it, he saw that it was exactly
Yang Qi looked excited and proud while holding the Netherworld Silver Bass. The old patriarch didn't notice Yang Qi. His eyes were all on the Netherworld Silver Bass. When he saw the size of the Netherworld Silver Bass, which was comparable to an adult killer whale, his eyes almost popped out of his head, "
How can the Netherworld Silver Bass grow so big?!"
"Um! Of course, the fish we caught is the king fish. Maybe it's because of the king fish that it's a bit special in size!"
"There can't be a ten-fold difference!" As he said that, the old patriarch slapped himself on the forehead and said with an annoyed look: "What a sin! It turns out that the Netherworld Silver Bass that was killed before was just missing.
The fully grown fry have lost so much flavor!!" As expected of a foodie, the first thing that came to his mind was that the fish had lost its flavor because it had not grown up, which left Lin Zheng speechless for a while.
At this time, Vanessa also looked at the photo curiously, then exclaimed and asked: "When did Qiqi catch it? It's really big, it must be ten meters long, right?!"
"
"11.3 meters, Qiqi specifically measured it!" Lin Zheng said amusingly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the old patriarch said anxiously: "No, we have to expand the fish pond as soon as possible. No, this place is too small. We have to find a new place to dig one!"
"Old Patriarch, please wait a moment for the expansion of the fish pond! This Netherworld Silver Bass will not grow taller all of a sudden, so there is no need to be in such a hurry!"
When the old patriarch heard this, he calmed down a little. Thinking about it carefully, it does make sense! After nodding slightly, he looked at Lin Zheng and the two of them, "Okay! Let's wait first! What happens next? You guys
What happened when you came here this time?"
Lin Zheng and the others didn't want to hide it from the old patriarch. They laughed after hearing this, and then Lin Zheng said: "Since the old patriarch is so straightforward, we won't hide it anymore. To be honest, we will do it this time
I came here because I hope Taotie City can help us find someone!"
"Looking for someone?" The old patriarch frowned when he heard this, "Who is it? You two big shots have to work hard to come here in person?"
"If we don't come here in person, do you think your descendants can find someone for us?"
The old patriarch's expression was stunned, and then he sighed helplessly, "What a misfortune for our family!" After saying this, he had no intention of continuing, but said to Lin Zheng and the others: "Don't talk about those unworthy descendants, tell me, then
Who is he?"
"Just a person you definitely don't want to come to Taotie City!"
"Whether I hope it or not, that's up to me to judge!"
"Hai Guo, have you heard of this name?" After saying that, seeing the old patriarch's expression change, Lin Zheng knew that he must have heard of the name of this demon soldier, so he continued: "This
The magic weapon was originally my collection, but a few days ago, it was stolen by a young boy, and there was no news at all! It was also by chance that the boy got information about the thief from a friend, and then he knew that the thief
In order to avoid my eyes and ears, I have changed my appearance and become an adventurer in Taotie City! The old patriarch must also be very aware of the danger of harming the country. I think that even for the sake of Taotie City, the fifth family should help us.
!”
"Boy Yiping, you are threatening my old man!"
"What kind of threat is this?!" Lin Zheng said with a smile, "It's just that our interests are the same now. No matter what, you definitely don't want the fifth family to disappear from history, right?"
"So, old man, why should I help you? I can send people to find people, and if I find them, I can also deal with them myself. By then, the harm to the country will be the property of my fifth family, even if it cannot be used,
It’s also great as a collectible!”
Seeing the old patriarch looking like he was going to cheat, Vanessa immediately smiled and said, "Of course you can do this, but it's not Lily who wants to threaten you. Once the power of harming the country is activated, the person who controls it will be affected by the dynasty's anger.
The blessing of luck means that the thief has been connected with the luck of the fifth family. To put it simply, some of the descendants of the fifth family may have hooked up with the thief. Although the fifth family is powerful,
, but in the dynasty that was destroyed by the disaster, there are probably not a few that are stronger than the fifth family. Does the old patriarch really have the confidence to bet the entire family?"
After hearing this, the old patriarch's expression was quite grim. He knew that Vanessa was indeed not sensationalizing. The number of evil sects that had brought disaster to the country could be seen from the number of dynasties that were destroyed. Among the dynasties that were destroyed, there were absolutely no
Que discovered the harm to the country. However, even if they discovered it, they knew the harm to the country, and they were still destroyed!
"But even if you are involved, will there be any change in the result?!"
Hearing what the old patriarch said, Lin Zheng and the others smiled even brighter. That's right. An old man who has worked hard all his life is still struggling. Lin Zheng and the others really don't want to use strong methods to force him to surrender. They can use words.
It would be best if you convince him first!
At that moment, Lin Zheng stretched out his hand, but Lin Zheng's key appeared in his hand. The moment the key appeared, the old patriarch's face immediately changed from worry to surprise!
"What is this?!"
"Before answering, I hope the old patriarch will read this. By the way, you should know the ancient demonic writings, right?" As he spoke, Lin Zheng showed the contract signed by Dantalin and the demon lord in front of the old patriarch.
Staring at the contract filled with chains of order, as well as the still bright handprints and signatures, the old patriarch murmured to himself: "The ancient legends are all true!"
After coming back to his senses, the old patriarch immediately stared at the key in Lin Zheng's hand, "Then this thing is the mark token of the first demon god Dantalin?!"
"That's right!" Lin Zheng nodded. In order to prevent the old patriarch from feeling uncomfortable, Lin Zheng put away the key and then said: "With this token, we can force your descendants to carry out orders and prevent them from following orders.
There is a possibility that the information will be leaked to them. In addition, since it is me who issued the order, this has become a fate confrontation between me and Taotie City, which can minimize the chance of the fortune of Taotie City bringing to the thieves!
"
After hearing this, the old patriarch was not happy, "Although your Leviathan City is powerful, it is only a city. Why do you think your luck can suppress our Taotie City?!"
"What we represent is not Leviathan City!" Lin Zheng said with a mysterious smile. The old man was unhappy and said: "No matter how big you are, can you be bigger than the heaven?!"
"Well!" Lin Zheng touched his chin and considered the gap between Istria and Heaven, and then said: "As for Heaven, there is still a certain gap. It will take some time to catch up with them. As for what we represent,
, to which Dantalin belongs, the Demon Realm, the Istrian Dynasty!”
"Istria?!" The old patriarch looked confused. With Istria's powerful strength, Taotie City would naturally be crushed, but, "Why can you represent the Istria Dynasty!
?”
Such words, for Lin Zheng and others to say, would inevitably be a bit bragging, so at this time, it was Feite's turn to appear. Feite, who was standing aside, suddenly stepped forward and introduced Lin Zheng again, "Stand here.
The Lord Ippei in front of you is the Demon King of the Istrian Dynasty and the true master of the entire Istria. Therefore, Lord Patriarch, you can rest assured that in the duel of fate, you will never lose.
