Chapter 89 The wizard who came back from the dead! Give me back! I want my money back! [Subscribe]
The temple fair at the foot of Shaolin Temple is really lively.
When Lin Xuan and his three companions arrived here, the place was already crowded with people.
There was constant shouting and hawking everywhere.
The goods sold are also dazzling and dazzling.
Here, you can buy almost anything you want.
Even some that have never been heard or seen before.
Because Xiaolong didn’t have enough breakfast.
After going down the mountain, we went to Tanggou Village first.
He arrived in a hurry and was already starving.
So, without saying anything, they all had a full meal first.
After dinner, everyone started to stroll around.
Lin Xuan had about forty or fifty coins on him, and he planned to buy some necessary New Year's goods and take them home.
Chen Xiaohu's thoughts were probably the same as his.
What about Xiaolan?
She probably just takes a look and won't buy anything.
His home is in Qingshi Village, very close to the temple fair. Grandma Hua might have already visited here and bought everything she needed.
Xiaolong is the son of the prefect of Kaifeng, a rich young man who doesn't need to consider these things at all.
Before he had even finished shopping for half an hour, Lin Xuan had almost spent all his money.
Mainly, I didn't buy anything. I just bought a pair of shoes for my father and a plain jacket and skirt for my mother.
“This money is spent so quickly…”
Lin Xuan felt emotional.
Suddenly, he realized that he should make some money...
Whether it is for yourself or your family.
Xiawa Village is too small after all.
Can't keep him.
Shaolin is not his final destination.
Maybe one day, he will travel around the world looking for the method of immortality.
But before that, I have to settle this home...
While thinking about it.
Suddenly, Lin Xuan and the others heard a group of people hurriedly discussing:
"It's incredible. There are people performing a circus over there. They say it's from the Western Regions. Sometimes they change their faces into human ones, sometimes into monkey ones, and sometimes into centaurs, human bodies with bird heads, and human bodies with fish tails!"
"what?!"
“Is there such a circus?”
"My dear, may I ask if that person with a fish tail and a human body is a man or a woman?"
"It belongs to a young girl!"
"The centaur is a woman."
"This...this I have to go check out!"
"Hurry up, hurry up, there will be no room if you are late..."
"..."
Looking at this group of people walking hurriedly towards the east, Lin Xuan originally thought it was nothing.
There are many strange and weird things at the temple fair.
But when he heard them talking about "face changing" and "centaur", he was startled.
I wonder if this has anything to do with the monster that attacked Tanggou Village?
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan became interested.
Just when I was about to ask Xiaolong if he wanted to go and take a look?
The latter suddenly looked at him at this moment, raised his eyebrows and made faces, as if he had other intentions.
Seeing this, Xiaolan glanced at them and said:
"Why, you also want to see the girl with a human body and a fish tail?"
"Forehead……"
Xiaolong was choked by these words and didn't know how to respond.
He really wanted to take a look, but not because he had any beautiful feelings in his heart.
I just want to watch the fun.
But after Xiaolan finished speaking, Lin Xuan admitted it openly:
"Yes."
"what?"
Hearing this, Xiaolong and Xiaohu were stunned.
He looked at Lin Xuan with surprise.
Seeing everyone's different expressions, Lin Xuan coughed lightly:
"Don't look at me like that. What do you think of me?"
He then explained:
"Didn't you hear it just now? Half man, half horse, with a bird's head and a human body. I wonder if this has anything to do with the monsters we investigated in Tanggou Village?"
The words fell.
Xiaolong was the first to nod in agreement:
"Brother, what you said makes sense. A sphinx is not scientific, and similarly, a centaur is not scientific either!"
As he said this, he looked at the honest and straightforward little tiger beside him:
"Xiao Hu, do you think we should go take a look?"
"It sounds like there's a connection. We should take a look."
Xiaohu thought seriously.
"Where's Xiaolan?"
Xiaolong looked at the only girl among the group.
Xiaolan initially suspected that everyone had ulterior motives in wanting to see the circus.
But after hearing what my senior brother said, it does make some sense.
She had no choice but to nod.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Xiaolong couldn't wait to urge:
"Then let's go."
"It's too late. You might not be able to see it."
At the same time, he secretly made up his mind:
"We must expose this scam and convince everyone that there are no such monsters in the world. It's all a trick to fool children. There is only science!"
This is the real reason why Xiaolong wants to go to the circus!
……
……
This circus caused quite a stir.
When many people heard such new things, they couldn't help but want to go and take a look.
Not to mention the girl with a human body and a fish tail, which is such an eye-catching thing.
Especially for those young men with some spare money, it is a fatal temptation.
Of course, older men also have drive.
In a short while, many people gathered outside the circus.
Everyone was clamoring to go and take a look.
Some people even fought over it.
"If you want to go in and watch the circus, each person has to pay twenty cents!"
at this time.
In the circus, a boss came out and preached to the outsiders.
"what?!"
"It costs twenty cents. That's too expensive. I won't watch it!"
Upon hearing the offer, some people immediately shook their heads and were discouraged by the price.
But soon, someone spoke up:
"I'll pay it, I'll pay it!"
"Twenty cents is nothing to me if I can just take a look at this girl with a human body and a fish tail!"
"Not to mention, there are also centaurs and half horses!"
The man who spoke was dressed like a rich young man. He took out twenty cents from his pocket and walked in.
When the others saw this, they could no longer resist the desire in their hearts, so they also paid twenty cents and went to the circus.
In less than a short while, dozens of people went in.
Twenty cents is indeed a lot of money.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but think of the twenty cents that Lin's father gave him when he first came to Shaolin Temple, and his mood became complicated for a moment.
Just when I was about to persuade Xiaolong to leave.
who knows.
But he pushed his way through the crowd, came to the front, and handed over two strings of copper coins.
"This……"
Lin Xuan was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
I thought to myself, Xiaolong is really quick.
At the same time, it can also be seen that this rich young man really has no shortage of money.
In fact.
Tang Xiaolong is the son of the prefect of Kaifeng.
Even if you don't ask your father for money, you will still receive a considerable amount of allowance every month!
He seldom spends money in Shaolin.
Now that I have finally come to this temple fair, I naturally won’t think about saving money.
Seeing that Xiaolong had paid the money, Lin Xuan and the other two had no choice but to follow him.
This circus occupies quite a large area.
The wooden stakes around it were newly driven, so it should have been built not long ago.
Lin Xuan, Xiaolong, Xiaohu, and Xiaolan randomly found a seat near the front and sat down.
While waiting, people kept coming in.
Within the time it takes to stick an incense stick, hundreds of people came in!
The entire circus was almost full.
In the end, only when the venue was completely full did the person in charge outside stop people from coming in.
But when Lin Xuan's ears moved, he heard that there were still people queuing outside to pay.
Apparently, that was the next group to come in to watch the circus.
"Wow, this is really profitable. At the end of the day, this circus troupe must be making a fortune..."
Lin Xuan pondered as he regained his composure.
clang!
Suddenly, a clear gong sounded from behind the circus.
Not long after, a round-faced fat man in fancy clothes came out from behind the scene with a smile on his face.
When he saw that person, Lin Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
Isn’t this the owner of Yunlai Inn?
Why is he here!
Not long after Master Gongjin returned to the temple last time, Abbot Sanzang sent people down the mountain to Yunlai Inn to investigate this person.
Unexpectedly, the returning monk told everyone that the owner was no longer in Yunlai Inn.
I asked the waiter and he said he had gone back to his hometown for something.
After that, Lin Xuan and his companions went down the mountain and went to Yunlai Inn for dinner several times, but they did not see him.
Unexpectedly, I met this "old friend" at the circus today.
It's really unexpected!
From this point of view, this circus is not simple.
When Xiaohu saw the person on the stage, he felt that he looked familiar. He soon realized what was happening and immediately came over and whispered to everyone:
"Hey, Xiaolong, I recognized this man. He was the owner of the Yunlai Inn that day. He had previously concealed the whereabouts of Master Gongjin."
Hearing this, Xiaolan also had an impression:
"Didn't Senior Brother say that he was a member of the Black Fox Gang?"
"There must be a ghost appearing at the circus at this time!"
"Don't act rashly, wait and see."
Lin Xuan reminded everyone.
Now, he is more and more certain that the monster incident is related to the Black Fox King. Now that he has some clues, he has to sit back and wait.
The fat man in fancy clothes said a few polite words on the stage, and seeing that the audience was really noisy, he said loudly and straightforwardly:
"Everyone, the show is about to begin!"
The words fell.
He was off the field.
Almost at the moment he left the stage, a burly man over two meters tall walked out from behind the stage.
What was jaw-dropping was that the sturdy man was actually half man and half horse.
The upper body has bronze skin and well-developed muscles, but below the waist and abdomen, it is a horse's body.
That’s right, it’s the horse’s body!
It has a green coat, a jet-black tail, and strong hooves.
See this scene.
Everyone was stunned and the whole audience was in an uproar.
"Fuck me!"
"This centaur really exists. I thought it was fake!"
"I don't know if it's a magic trick. If I could go up and touch it, I would know."
"You're trying to rip me off! Didn't you mention there was a woman?"
"What about people?"
"Yes, where are the people? Why can't I see them?"
"Nima, this is how we play, right..."
"I want my money back!"
"..."
Many people stared with their eyes wide open, looking at the centaur from head to toe!
In the end, no flaws were found.
Soon, a wave of screams and curses swept across, almost drowning out the entire circus!
Especially Xiaolong was still thinking about exposing the fakery, but after staring at the centaur for a long time, he was dumbfounded.
He murmured:
"This... this is unscientific and doesn't make sense..."
at the same time.
When Lin Xuan saw this half-man, half-horse, he frowned slightly.
His spiritual power was not weak, and it was obvious that this centaur was not fake.
Because the qi and blood in the body are connected!
So the question is, what is going on?
Lin Xuan took a quick look and found that the man was not wearing any magic cards from head to toe.
This made him feel strange.
Without the magic card, how could he become this half-man, half-horse?
Or maybe someone is really performing a magic trick.
While thinking, Lin Xuan recalled that in the anime, the magic card was created by a wizard.
If you think about it this way, the only person who can turn a person into a centaur is a wizard.
But in the original book, the wizard is already dead!
Could it be that he is alive again now?
The more Lin Xuan thought about it, the more headache he had.
I always feel that it is confusing and hard to make sense of.
Even if you know some story lines in advance, it is still difficult to analyze them.
While thinking about it.
Suddenly, cheers and exclamations broke out one after another on the field!
At this moment, Lin Xuan looked towards the stage.
Then another centaur came out.
Surprisingly, it was a woman.
She has beautiful eyes, a plump figure, and fair skin, but below her flat and smooth belly button is the horse's body.
Seeing this, many people felt a warm feeling in their hearts and their breathing became heavier.
Seeing everyone's expressions, the fat man in fancy clothes came on stage again, smiled slightly, and said:
"I believe that many people do not believe this is real and want to come on stage to verify it. Those who are willing to verify it can just pay fifty coins and touch and pull it with their own hands to see if these centaurs are real or fake."
