In Fantasy Town, people are kept by various rich women

"Thank you, big brother!"

Fran took the sesame rice cake with some anticipation, took a bite, and seemed very satisfied.

It seems that Fran, like her sister, has a weak resistance to desserts.

Luo Kong saw this scene and recorded the glutinous rice cake in his hand.

The portions of various snacks are not large, and the main point is to eat while walking.

Fran's appetite is actually quite small, but looking at so many varieties of snacks, she wants to try them all.

So she came up with a new idea...

"Big brother, ah~"

Fran reached out and handed the bitten roasted sweet potato to Luo Kong's mouth.

I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but the position facing Luo Kong’s mouth was exactly the place where she had bitten just now.

Feeling the excitement of Fran above his head, Luo Kong did not dislike it. He opened his mouth and took a bite of the roasted sweet potato in Fran's hand.

Looking at Luo Kong's actions, Fran seemed quite happy. She picked up the sweet potato again, took a bite herself, and then handed it to Luo Kong's mouth.

Behind them, the stall owner, a girl with short golden hair and a red ruffled hat, looked at Luo Kong and Fran's backs and chuckled.

Volume 1: Chapter 76: The God of Harvest and the God of Red Leaves

Chapter 76

"Little devil? Do you know where Luo Kong ran off to?"

In the library, Patchouli frowned as she stared at the glowing magic circle in front of her, seeming to be stuck in some problem.

"As for Senior, he must have gone fishing again, right?"

The little devil, who was holding a book and studying attentively, thought for a moment before answering when he heard Patchouli's question.

“That guy…”

After getting the answer, Patchouli curled her lips in dissatisfaction.

Not only does he come to torture her with exercise early in the morning every day, but he also likes to run around all day long.

Wouldn't it be nice to stay in the library and read with her?

Thinking of this, Patchouli, who felt inexplicably lost, sighed, and then gave instructions to the little devil.

"Then, go find me a dictionary of ancient characters and put it on my desk when you find it."

After giving these instructions, Patchouli gave up observing the magic circle in front of her, picked up the stone tablet that she had studied for a long time and recorded the magic of the Age of Gods, and began to read it carefully.

"Consciousness... link? Exchange? Or what? By the way, this word is so ugly, who are you showing it to..."

Looking at the obviously old stone slab in her hand, Patchouli complained in dissatisfaction.

Although the replica has been completed...I don't know what the specific effect of this magic is.

She could only speculate based on her experience that the magic in front of her should not be very offensive, but was just a status effect with a time limit.

"If it really doesn't work, why not just inject some magic power and give it a try?"

Thinking of this, Patchouli's eyes seemed to be full of curiosity.

"The so-called Harvest Festival is an important annual festival in the human world. It is usually held before the crops mature. You should have seen wheat ears or maple leaves decorated on the doors of every household along the way, right?"

Luo Kong and Fulan were standing at the door of a grocery store, listening with great interest to the uncle in front of them telling the story of the festival.

"That's a sign that the villagers are inviting the gods of harvest and autumn leaves to visit the village. The harvest festival is held before the crops in the fields mature, and it's a festival to pray to the gods for a good harvest this year. It's also a festival to welcome the arrival of autumn."

The uncle in the grocery store was not like the other villagers who were afraid of Fran's unusual features and dared not approach her. Instead, he was very happy to introduce the origin of the festival to Luo Kong and Fran.

"It sounds interesting to invite gods to be our guests."

Luo Kong looked at the houses around him and saw that many people had decorations of wheat ears and maple leaves hanging on their doors. He was a little confused before, but now he understood after hearing the villagers' explanation.

"Gods... huh? I don't know what they look like."

Fran seemed to be somewhat interested in these so-called gods.

"Who knows? Although we invite them to visit every year, the gods have never appeared... There was a rumor that the God of Harvest was a little blonde girl with a red ruffled hat and a scent like roasted sweet potatoes... But if you think about it carefully, you will know that such rumors are generally not credible."

The uncle in the grocery store seemed very talkative.

However, Luo Kong always felt that this description had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

A little blonde girl with a red ruffled hat and a scent like roasted sweet potatoes... I seem to have seen this description somewhere before?

Looking at the remaining roasted sweet potato in his hand, Luo Kong seemed to remember something and turned back in the direction he came from.

At the end of the road, you can still seem to see the blonde girl sitting at her stall selling roasted sweet potatoes with a gratified smile, waiting for customers to come.

Luo Kong's eyes flashed with understanding and he smiled.

"Maybe... the gods are still having fun at the festival?"

Luo Kong said this for no reason, which made the boss slightly stunned, and then he smiled and nodded.

After bidding farewell to the enthusiastic uncle, Luo Kong and Fran continued to walk forward with Fran, holding the wheat ears and maple leaves given by each other in their hands respectively.

However, Luo Kong did not notice that shortly after he left, a slightly familiar black and white figure landed next to the villager uncle.

"Old man? Who were you talking to?"

Marisa, still wearing her classic outfit, asked curiously, but received a glare from the other party.

"How do you call your dad, kid?"

........

As the sky gradually darkened, more and more people appeared on the street.

"I don't know where Cirno and the big fairy ran off to?"

Luo Kong stood at the end of the street and looked around, but did not see the two little goblins. He then turned his attention to another slightly familiar figure.

She was a girl with silver-white hair that reached her ears and wearing a black ribbon hair accessory.

Two long swords hung from her waist, and behind her followed an impressive, slightly strange, white mist-like unidentified creature.

I seem to have seen this guy at a banquet before. His name seems to be... Youmu?

Luo Kong remembered the other person's name with some difficulty.

Because they had only exchanged a few brief words at a banquet, Luo Kong was not very familiar with her.

By the way...Youmu seems to be in some trouble now.

"What? I bought so much food, but instead of getting a discount, the price actually went up?"

At this time, Youmeng slammed her hands on the table in front of the grocery store, her eyes full of disbelief.

The clerk of the food store looked at Youmu's two long swords on her waist and the half-spirit behind her with some fear. But... for the sake of his job, he finally gritted his teeth and explained.

"This... Sir, there is really no other way. The shopkeeper is afraid that someone will maliciously hoard grain and drive up the price of grain, so he has no choice but to set up this rule."

Youmeng listened to the clerk's words with a conflicted look on her face. She touched her purse and looked a little short of money as she pleaded with the clerk.

"Isn't this too much of a price increase? It's almost half the normal price... I buy food to eat at home, so I won't drive up the price. Can't you just sell it to me at the original price?"

"I'm sorry... the food you bought this time is enough for seven or eight people to eat for a whole year..."

The clerk wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at the girl in front of him with subtle eyes.

With so much food all of a sudden, they say they're not hoarding food with malicious intent. Who would believe this?

............

ps: I want to do the whole body swap mutation myself...but I can't think of anyone except the undead group. Does anyone have any recommendations? emm

Volume 1: Chapter 77: Late-night Izakaya

Chapter 77

Seeing the clerk's persistence, Youmeng felt a little discouraged, but in the end she could only sigh silently.

This time we didn't buy enough food...Now, Lady Youyouzi will starve again.

When I think about this, although I can't afford to buy food because Baiyulou's economic situation has been in deficit every year...strictly speaking, this is not Youmeng's fault.

But when I thought about what would happen if I brought this news back to Youyouzi-sama...

When she thought of this, the expression on Youmeng's face became even more painful.

And far away.

Although he was somewhat concerned about Youmu's missing figure, Luo Kong was not very familiar with the other party after all, so he did not go up to talk to her in the end.

.........

After wandering around the crowd with Fran for a while, Luo Kong finally found Cirno, who was running around like a horse that had broken free from its reins as soon as she arrived at the crowd... and the innocent-looking big fairy following behind her.

At this time, she was being educated by a woman with blue and white waist-length hair and a blue scholar's hat on her head.

Cirno looked aggrieved at first, but after seeing Luo Kong, her eyes lit up and she immediately asked for help.

"Ah! Human, save me!"

Cirno's voice sounded aggrieved.

"You are.....?"

Huiyin then noticed Luo Kong and looked a little alert.

Although they had met once before, her attention was mostly on Meihong at that time and she did not notice the existence of Luo Kong beside her.

But... to be honest, she could basically name all the humans in the village, but this was the first time she had seen Luo Kong in front of her...

"My name is Luo Kong. I'm considered Mei Hong's friend, right? I met her once before at a pub."

Looking at Huiyin's puzzled look, Luo Kong chuckled and introduced himself to her.

Meihong's friend...

Listening to Luo Kong's words, Huiyin vaguely recalled that it seemed that there really was such a person present at that time. Only then did she put away her vigilance and then looked at him with a little apology.

“My name is Kamishizawa Huiyin, and I’m the village’s history teacher. Since you’re Meihong’s friend, you can just call me Huiyin.

Luo Kong nodded, then looked at Cirno, who had tears in her eyes, with some curiosity.

"Can I ask what this idiot did again?"

"I'm not an idiot!"

Being called an idiot, Cirno protested subconsciously, but Huiyin and Luokong both ignored him tacitly.

Huiyin sighed helplessly and pointed to the stall next to her where all the ingredients were frozen.

"This guy took advantage of the stall owner's absence and froze all the ingredients that were going to be sold tonight..."

“…”

Luo Kong looked at Cirno, and it turned out that the little girl seemed to be quite confident.

"Frogs are obviously only delicious when they are frozen!"

Looking at the food stall next to him that seemed to be selling frogs, Luo Kong knocked on Cirno's head in annoyance, then looked up.

He spoke under Huiyin's somewhat surprised gaze.

"Forget it. Are there any intact ingredients? Just one will do. I'll compensate her."

Finally, under Huiyin's somewhat surprised gaze, Luo Kong recorded the remaining ingredients, exchanged them for a full bucket and returned them to the stall owner as compensation.

...........

After meeting Huiyin and saying goodbye to her in a puzzled look, Luo Kong brought the three little ones back to the Scarlet Devil Mansion through the gap.

After settling Fran down, he set out again on the road back to Nitun Pavilion.
