Who Stole My Eggs?

Xie Zuo looked up at the tall and towering city gate. It was indeed a big city. It was different from the small villages and towns he had visited before. It looked very wealthy.

Xie Zuo secretly thought that Feng Yi had obviously used his divine power. That guy Huo Yao had indeed lied to him when he said that he could not use his divine power casually in the human world. They had gone through a lot of unnecessary mistakes. The person who agreed to take him on a tour in the human world had gone back to serve his master after only a few days.

Thinking of Tiandi, Xie Zuo felt uncomfortable again.

Feng Yi kept paying attention to him and said with a smile: “How is it? By the way, you should respect the culture here. I have to change your clothes first. Ah, where is it?”

Feng Yi waved his hand, “Here!” A luxury carriage pulled by a tall horse drove out of the city gate slowly. It slowly stopped beside Feng Yi and Xie Zuo.

The boy driving the carriage jumped out of the carriage and saluted Feng Yi, “I’m sorry, sir, I’m late.”

Feng Yi waved his hand, “It’s not late, it’s me who came early. Let’s go, let’s go to Luo’s Cloth Shop.”

Xie Zuo followed Feng Yi into the carriage. Seeing that the interior of the carriage was luxuriously furnished and the space was comparable to a suite, he knew that the carriage had been transformed by Feng Yi again with his divine power.

Feng Yi sat down next to him, “How about it? It’s fun to go out with me. Huo Er live so frugally. We are blessed so why don’t enjoy it. Why should we suffer hardship in human world as a deity?”

In Xie Zuo’s inheritance, the impressions of demon kings of the past dynasties on deities were similar to Feng Yi’s. They all loved to enjoy themselves, showed off, and were very hypocritical. They had a condescending attitude toward the other creatures of the five realms, and all the rules they set were for maintaining their own vested interests.

In such a comparison, Huo Yao was indeed a strange person in the divine world. He did not have a temple in the human world, did not receive incense, and did not live in a temple in the divine world. Ever since he suppressed Xie Zuo, he had been guarding the sky above the abyss every day. He wondered where he was before? Was it a good place to live in divine world every day and serve his master?

Xie Zuo maliciously speculated on Huo Yao, but at the same time he realized one thing. He knew too little about Huo Yao. Huo Yao, as the Great Deity of Thunder, had lived for tens of thousands of years. Before that, Xie Zuo had no idea what he had done or what kind of person he was.

.

Yanzhou City was really prosperous, the streets were busy with traffic, and there were all kinds of novelty things to see. Unfortunately, Xie Zuo had no intention of looking at them.

“Here we go, let’s go pick out new clothes for you!” Feng Yi said.

Luo’s Cloth Store was the largest and best ready-made clothing store in Yanzhou City, specializing in serving dignitaries and wealthy people. Feng Yi was obviously a regular customer. As soon as he got out of the car, the boss and the shopkeeper came to greet him enthusiastically, “Master Hong, you are a rare visitor!”

Feng Yi smiled, “Boss Luo is making a fortune. I brought a brother here today. Please give him some clothes.”

Boss Luo and Feng Yi had been friends for many years. Seeing that Xie Zuo was young and handsome, he quietly pulled Feng Yi aside and asked, “New favorite?”

Feng Yi was frightened. He waved his hands repeatedly, “No, no, no, don’t mess around. He is… the master, and he must be taken care of!”

Boss Luo was also frightened for a while, but fortunately he asked more questions, secretly thinking that this was probably the noble man behind this rich man, he solemnly said: “Don’t worry, I will definitely satisfy this noble man.”

Xie Zuo was not very interested, but Feng Yi entered the cloth shop and picked out a lot of gorgeous and heavily embroidered ones. For the brocade robe, he also chose a variety of trendy crowns and hairpins, and also customized a set of red gold and ruby-encrusted hair and face, which made Boss Luo smile from ear to ear.

After all, Boss Luo was experienced and had a sharp eye. He could tell at a glance that Xie Zuo was not experienced in the world, and unlike Feng Yi, he was not too concerned about dressing up. Looking at his face, he seemed to have something on his mind.

Boss Luo thought about it and personally went to pick up a set of round-necked and wide-sleeved robes, and showed it to Xie Zuo diligently, “This is the finest and most comfortable fabric in our village. It is luxurious and low-key, just suitable for a noble person like you.”

Xie Zuo looked at the outfit, it was overall silver-gray in color, with a wide-sleeved slanted-breasted middle-shirt gown underneath, a silver half-wall coat with an embossed bamboo leaf pattern, and a black leather belt. He couldn’t help but take a second look.

Boss Luo was so shrewd that he hurriedly called to the shopkeeper, “Come and try on the noble man.”

Coincidentally, the suit fit Xie Zuo’s size perfectly, and there was no need to modify it at all. Boss Luo smiled and said, “This is the fate of this suit and the noble man!”

Xie Zuo looked at himself in the bronze mirror and was very satisfied.

Feng Yi picked out another gold crown with engraved silk for him, “Put it on, it will look better with a set.”

Xie Zuo saw that the gold crown had a unique style and exquisite workmanship, so Feng Yi put it on him.

“Oh, what a handsome young man.” Feng Yi said happily, “How many young wives and girls can you charm when you ride a horse on the street?”

Boss Luo said attentively: “Master Hong also has a very good vision. This golden crown was made by our best master in two years. It was just delivered yesterday. You see, the silk wrappings are all in the shape of lightning. There has never been such a novel design before.”

Xie Zuo looking at Feng Yi, “I don’t want this one, change it to another one.”

“Uh… Okay.”

Xie Zuo rolled his eyes at Feng Yi’s comment. He wasn’t particularly interested in the clothes, and the whole idea of dressing up and picking out accessories felt pointless to him.

.

As the carriage moved through the lively streets of Yanzhou City, Xie Zuo observed the human world with mixed emotions. The bustling activities, the vibrant colors, and the variety of people intrigued him, but he couldn’t shake off the thoughts of his recent experiences.

“Feng Yi,” Xie Zuo finally spoke, “What’s the purpose of all this? Why did Huo Yao send you to accompany me?”

Feng Yi sighed dramatically, “Ah, the love affair between you and Huo Er is truly a complicated one. But don’t worry, I’m here to make your stay in the human world more enjoyable. Huo Er might be serious and no fun, but I’m here to add some joy to your life!”

Xie Zuo remained silent, contemplating the real intentions behind Huo Yao’s actions.

Feng Yi leaned closer, “Don’t think too much, Your Majesty. Just enjoy the scenery and the company. Life is short, after all!”

With that, Feng Yi gestured to the carriage driver, and the carriage continued its journey through the lively streets of Yanzhou City, leaving Xie Zuo in contemplation about the mysteries surrounding his current situation.
