Chapter 291 - 291 41 Gathering Wishes Sacrifice 2_2

291: Chapter 41: Gathering Wishes Sacrifice (2)_2 291: Chapter 41: Gathering Wishes Sacrifice (2)_2 The dance was exceedingly slow, entirely different from the fast-paced dances he usually encountered.

The folding fan gently revolved, colorful ribbons flowed through the dancer’s hands, fifteen bells on the Divine Entertainment Bell chimed crisply; each motion was as slow as drifting clouds, with a timely pause between each move as if to let the audience see every detail clearly.

Paired with the monotonous accompaniment, it truly was a dance offered to the deities.

Who among modern people would bother squeezing in to watch such a dull dance?

And indeed, the audience here was all gods.

They stood beneath the stage, flew in the sky, watching intently, oblivious to time, energy, or aesthetic considerations—those mundane concerns—simply enjoying the dance offered to them.

Gongsun Ce held his phone, quietly observing as well.

Accustomed to a fast-paced life, he couldn’t appreciate the beauty in the dance, but felt that trying something different occasionally wouldn’t hurt.

Perhaps, that was the essence of traveling.

It wasn’t about whether it looked good or not but whether it was something new to see.

The Divine Entertainment Dance lasted nearly half an hour until the witch raised her folding fan again and walked towards the face of the fox god with slow steps.

After bowing to it, she stepped down from the stage, and the elegant accompaniment stopped abruptly.

Only then the venue burst from silence back into noise.

“Oh, Miss Hua…” “The Divine Entertainment this year remains so elegant.” “Worth the trip!”

The fox-faced God of Yuzhuan went to the center of the stage, raised a toast to the demons and spirits, “May everyone achieve their wishes.”

“Thank you, Lord God of Yuzhuan!” the hidden gods chorused.

The fox god drained the cup, and the demons and spirits walked away from the stage laughing and jesting, signaling the official start of the festival.

Mana grinned and squeezed in close, “What do you think?

Our Divine Entertainment Dance is something you won’t see anywhere else.”

Gongsun Ce spoke honestly, “To tell the truth, I didn’t really catch the gods’ point, but I think the witch Miss looked quite graceful.”

“Figures, you layman.” Mana spread her hands, “Shall we talk about some notices, and then I’ll take you to see the gods’ stalls?

If we’re lucky today, maybe we’ll find something nice… What’s the matter?

During the conversation, a voice called from not far away, “Lady Mana—” A deity dressed in white hunting clothes hurried over, bent down, and whispered something.

“Shall we go now?

No, but, I need to accompany the guests first…”

Fu Jian stood in the shadows beside the wooden stage, his expression still not looking good.

Mana glanced in that direction, shrank her neck, “Please wait a moment!

I’ll quickly explain the situation to grandmother and come right back!”

“It’s okay, take your time.

We’ll just look around the stalls,” Gongsun Ce said smiling and waving his hand.

He watched Mana walk away, pulled out his phone, and asked, “Qiluo, did you like the Divine Entertainment Dance?”

The girl on the screen, sparkling-eyed and jumping excitedly, “This is such a valuable reference!

The inspiration for the next concert just burst forth!”

…Almost forgot your day job is an idol.

“I’m glad you enjoyed it.”

Gongsun Ce pondered for a moment, said, “Hold on, let me type the details, could you help me check some data later?

Just buzz the phone when you have results.”

“Leave it to me~”

Gongsun Ce quickly typed a few lines, pushed his glasses up, “Let’s go, Miss Shiyu, see what good things we might come across at the hidden gods’ festival.”

“Huh?

You actually believe in this so-called fortune.”

“Don’t say I didn’t feel like I got the hang of the fuss around Zero Island here…”

The silver-haired young man and the Hunter squeezed into the crowd of monsters, wandering past stalls amidst howls and wails.

This Festival of Wishes was truly selling everything: straw monsters yelling selling palm-sized straw figures, a monster covered in syrup making candy apples in front of a cart, a chef with a fish face selling live fish and shrimp, and more demons and spirits settling down somewhere, laying out various rare items, engaging customers in exchanges of goods, reminding him of a marketplace he had seen in his childhood.

Shiyu Ling walked excitedly to a candy apple stall and asked, “How much for a candy apple?”

The syrupy monster wiggled, “Hehe, we don’t take human money!

Amazing deal, just take it if you want to eat!”

Shiyu Ling frowned, “What kind of logic is that, giving me stuff for free because I’m lucky?”

“Yes, yes!” the syrupy monster laughed heartily, “if you’re lucky, you can eat sugar when you’re hungry and even find money on the road!”

Gongsun Ce had become very familiar with the style of operation of the gods in disguise.

He opened his briefcase, took out a so-so green mask, and smiled, “It’s not good to take things for free, how about we trade this for something?”

The syrup monster approached and shook, as if sniffing, “What is this?”

“It’s a special product from our side, apply it to the face and it can temporarily change one’s appearance, effective for one day.

If you want to use it, I can help adjust it for you.”

The syrup monster was startled and exclaimed, “Too big, I can’t open it!

Wait for me!” With that, it hurriedly dragged the syrup away, leaving a fragrant trail on the ground.

A few seconds later, the syrup monster arrived with two freshly cooked taiyaki, two boxes of takoyaki, a serving of fried noodles, and two large grilled squids, grabbed two apple candies, and put them all in a bag approaching, “Here you go, here you go!”

“Thanks, boss.” The young man with gray hair took the food and passed a candy to his partner.

Shiyu Ling’s eyes twitched, “Trading a disguise mask for snacks, this deal is a huge loss…”

“Look at it from another angle, I traded one item for all these things, isn’t that a gain?”

“Tsk tsk tsk.” Shiyu Ling let the slime test for poison before starting to eat the candy.

Gongsun Ce carried the bag leisurely, believing that the snacks he bought would definitely come in handy…

Because he understood that his luck was very good today.

Sure enough, it took less than half a minute before a group of creatures, no taller than his knees, swarmed around him.

These little demons had bluish-purple skin, hardly any clothes, all with big bellies, dribbling saliva from their mouths, an irritating sight.

The little demons clapped their hands and called out, “Haha, you, person with the golden contacts!” “Is the festival fun?” “Do you have any food?”

“Give me some information, Miss Shiyu.”

Shiyu Ling spoke unclearly, “Hungry ghosts…

smacking…

they are everywhere, very weak in fighting power, the lowest level of the gods in disguise.”

Gongsun Ce crouched down and opened the bag full of food, “Snacks for information, how about it?”

The hungry ghosts immediately buried their heads and ate voraciously, the leader speaking while eating, “Three, three questions!”

“Okay.

First, do you know who is the most well-informed here?”

The hungry ghost pointed to a creature not far away with a long-haired bird-beaked fish body, “Sea Strange God knows everything!”

“Second question, do you know here anyone who makes Heart Phase Weapons?”

“Heart Phase, Weapons?” “The magical equipment of the Ninjas.”

“Ah, weapons!

The Ta Bei at the south end of the street is the best blacksmith!”

Gongsun Ce nodded satisfied, and finally asked, “The last is a common-sense question, I’m a foreigner and don’t quite understand, I hope you guys can help me out…” He lowered his voice, “I feel like most of the Lords of God here actually don’t really know what they want?”

Upon hearing this, the mouths of the hungry ghosts eating stopped.

“You, you!

You’re really an outsider, this is a taboo!

No one knows, so no one wants to hear about it!

You know?”

“Understood, understood.” Gongsun Ce smiled, bowed, “Thank you all for resolving my confusion, I will continue to enjoy the festival.”

The hungry ghosts ran off with their food, and Gongsun Ce stood thoughtful.

“What exactly are you trying to do?

Wanting information and Heart Phase Weapons, wouldn’t it be easier to ask someone from the Seven Luminaries Divine Sect for help?” Shiyu Ling tossed the finished candy stick into the garbage can.

Gongsun Ce shook his head and sighed, “I’m afraid that the gods in disguise know some things clearer than the divine officials!

Come on, let’s see what Ta Bei looks like, maybe he can upgrade your demon-breaking arrow.”

Shiyu Ling had no expectations, “This place?

My Demon-Breaking Arrow is a first-class product from Supibia!”

“Just give some confidence to the craftsmen from your homeland.” The Superpower User walked expectantly towards the south, “I’m lucky today, maybe I can also have a useful weapon custom-made.”
