Tian Xiaoding left the Qiankun Pot and planned to go to Cai Chenzi to ask about the reason why Erniu had not woken up. As it happened, Cai Chenzi went out to do errands during the day and was not at his residence.
Fortunately, it was already time to turn on the lights at night, and Xiao Ding estimated that it wouldn't take long for Cai Chenzi to return.
Yuan Heng and Li Zhen, two little Taoist priests, were a little curious when they saw Xiao Ding and the others leaving in the morning and coming back in the evening. They were still asking Xiao Ding and the others about their new residence.
Although four months have passed in the world inside the pot, only four hours have passed in the world outside the pot. Converted to today's time on earth, four hours is equivalent to eight hours.
Therefore, when Xiao Ding came to Caichenzi's residence, it was time to light the lamp at night.
Xiao Ding thought that it was so late that Cai Chenzi would be back soon. But he waited all night.
Caichenzi didn't return all night, and Yuan Heng and Li Zhen didn't know where he had gone. On normal days, Cai Chenzi would usually go to the city lord's mansion in the morning to discuss the current situation with other monks, and in the afternoon he would usually return to his residence to refine alchemy.
Since he couldn't wait for Cai Chenzi to come back, Xiao Ding decided to go to the city lord's mansion to inquire in person later.
So, after he, Ouyang Qing and Ah Li had breakfast, they walked towards the city lord's mansion in Dakang City.
The City Lord's Mansion is not difficult to find. Xiao Ding visited it last time, so he can naturally find the route.
When Xiao Ding and the other two walked into the city lord's mansion, they saw many monks already sitting in the meeting hall.
The city lord Dai Zhongyang was sitting on the throne and was kissing
He greeted the other monks warmly. Seeing Xiao Ding and the others walking in, Dai Zhong Yang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile on his face: "Why is the leader of the Tian faction so free today and came to our city lord's mansion?"
Since the last time he had a meal with Xiao Ding and Cai Chenzi, he has almost understood some things about Xiao Ding, so he does not dare to underestimate Xiao Ding too much.
Xiao Ding hurriedly took a few steps forward, cupped his fists and said, "I'm here this time because I have something to ask City Lord Dai. I wonder if City Lord Dai is convenient at this moment?"
When Dai Zhongyang heard that Xiao Ding wanted to ask him something, he quickly smiled and said: "Convenient, convenient, I wonder what the leader of the Tian faction wants to ask?"
Xiao Ding clasped his fists again and asked, "I just want to ask City Master Dai, do you know where Senior Cai Chen from the Immortal Medicine Sect has gone? Why didn't he come back last night?"
When Dai Zhongyang saw Xiao Ding asking about Cai Chenzi's whereabouts, he remained calm and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, it turns out that the leader of the Tian faction was asking where Cai Chenzi had gone. You live in his house." My dear, don’t you know that he went to Xingye City yesterday?”
"Xingye City?" Xiao Ding asked doubtfully, "I went out for something during the day yesterday and returned to Senior Caichen's residence at night. I don't know where Senior Caichen went. Are you saying he went to Xingye City yesterday? ?”
Dai Zhongyang nodded and affirmed: "Yes, something happened in Xingye City yesterday, and someone was seriously injured. They sent people to take Cai Chenzi to Xingye City."
"So that's it!" Xiao Ding suddenly realized, and then asked, "I don't know what to do?"
Senior Chen, how many days will it take to return? "
"Well, I don't know the specifics. It's estimated to be as little as three to five days, or as long as ten and a half months. The specific time depends on the situation in Xingye City and how serious it is." Dai Zhongyang replied thoughtfully. .
When Xiao Ding heard this, he thought to himself that it looked like he would have to wait for a while. Having no other choice, he had no choice but to say: "In that case, I'll take my leave now. I'll come over to visit City Lord Dai when I have time in the future."
Dai Zhongyang heard Xiao Ding say that he was leaving, and quickly advised: "Master Tian Faction, don't leave in such a hurry. How about you sit down and discuss with everyone about resisting the demon clan? The situation on the front line is not good recently." That’s wonderful.”
Xiao Ding refused and said: "Uh--, City Lord Dai, I'm sorry, I have other important things to attend to. I really am not in the mood to pay attention to other things. I hope City Lord Dai can forgive me!"
When Dai Zhongyang saw that Xiao Ding refused to stay, he could only sigh and said: "Well, since the leader of the Tian faction has other important matters, it is inconvenient for me to continue to force him to stay. Finally, I hope that the leader of the Tian faction can take charge of the matter as soon as possible. Once this is done, get involved in resisting the invasion of demons as soon as possible. The front line is urgent recently. If it is too late, we humans in Fengluan Continent may suffer a catastrophe."
Xiao Ding once again heard Dai Zhong Yang mention that the situation on the front line was not good, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that Cai Chenzi's visit to Xingye City was also related to the bad situation on the front line?
It seems that it is better to make plans as soon as possible.
After leaving the city lord's mansion, Xiao Ding and the others returned to Cai Chenzi's residence, told Yuan Heng and Li Zhen about Cai Chenzi's whereabouts, and also gave instructions
The two of them, if Cai Chenzi returns to Dakang City, must report to him that they have come to see him.
In fact, when Xiao Ding and Cai Chenzi parted yesterday, they both left communication charms for each other.
The reason why Xiao Ding did not use the communication talisman to ask Cai Chenzi about Er Niu not waking up was because, firstly, he did not know what Caichenzi was busy with at the moment and was worried that it would disturb him; secondly, because although the communication talisman It can send messages thousands of miles, but the content of each transmission is very limited, and it cannot send too many messages. However, the fact that Er Niu is not awake is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words, so Xiao Ding did not use the messenger to ask for information. Chenzi thing.
In addition, Xiao Ding did not use the messenger to ask where Cai Chenzi had gone. That was because Xiao Ding knew that if Cai Chenzi did not return all night, he must have something important to do, otherwise it would be impossible not to come back at night. of. Therefore, Xiao Ding did not dare to disturb Cai Chenzi easily. If Cai Chenzi was busy with something important and his communication talisman affected Cai Chenzi, the consequences might be serious.
Therefore, Xiao Ding would rather go to the city lord's mansion and ask in person than send a messenger to ask Cai Chenzi.
After giving instructions to Yuan Heng and Li Zhen, Xiao Ding did not continue to live in Cai Chenzi's residence. He took Ouyang Qing and Ah Li out of Dakang City and returned to the temporary station at the back of Dakang Mountain.
Here, the three of them can enter and leave the Qiankun Pot at will without worrying about being discovered by others. This is much more convenient than living at Caichenzi's place.
This moment is far from the last time I left the Qiankun Pot.
, one night and half the morning have passed in the world outside the pot. For the world inside the pot, several more months have passed.
Therefore, as soon as Xiao Ding and the others returned to their base in the back mountain, he took the two girls into the Qiankun Pot again.
After entering the world inside the pot, Xiao Ding couldn't wait to rush to the bedroom in the cave.
When he left last time, he asked the Bagua Artifact Spirit to take care of Erniu, who was still in a coma. He also told it that Erniu should be fed some ginseng soup into her belly regularly to ensure the nutritional needs of her body.
After Xiaoding walked into the bedroom, he saw Erniu lying on the bed alive, still unconscious. He couldn't help but feel a little sad.
After sitting on the edge of the bed, he took Erniu's little hand and said softly: "Erniu, why don't you wake up quickly? Have you forgotten your husband-in-law?"
It has been almost a year since the third day of the first lunar month in the pot, when Erniu began to recover her heartbeat and breathing. Now, almost a year has passed in the world inside the pot, but Erniu still hasn't woken up, which makes Xiao Ding a little confused. mad.
He tried his best, but there was nothing he could do. This feeling of powerlessness was simply too unbearable.
After staying in the world inside the pot for three or four days, seeing Erniu still unconscious, Xiaoding had no choice but to lead Ouyang Qing and Ah Li out of the Qiankun Pot again.
He didn't dare to stay in the world inside the pot for too long, for fear of missing the message from Cai Chenzi's return. In the world inside the pot, he could not receive the communication talisman sent to him by Cai Chenzi.
Therefore, Xiao Ding had no choice but to return to the world outside the pot and wait patiently.
Ouyang Qing stayed in the Qiankun Pot for four months because she followed Xiaoding. During this time
Here, he insisted on taking Huixingdan, and now her rabbit head has changed a lot.
Before, her bunny head was fluffy and covered with white rabbit fur. Now those white hairs have almost fallen off. At the same time, the top of her head has turned slightly black, and it seems that black hair has begun to grow.
However, although her face has lost the rabbit fur, her appearance is very ugly and she still looks a bit like a rabbit. The eyes are still bright red, which makes people feel very strange after looking at them.
Also, there is one more thing that needs to be mentioned in passing. The Aladdin magic lamp that Xiao Ding had thrown into the Qiankun pot before, because no one disturbed him in the world inside the pot, he had successfully practiced the ghost cultivation books that Xiao Ding had obtained in the Nether Realm of Xuewangzhou. Kung Fu.
At the same time, Aladdin's magic lamp also cultivated a book "The Book of Ten Thousand Poisons" given to him by Xiao Ding. This book was originally obtained by Xiao Ding from the head of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, Dugu Can, when he was in the Song Dynasty on Earth. of.
Xiao Ding has always felt that using poison is too vicious and cruel, so he has never studied the "Ten Thousand Poisons Classic". Originally, he had thought of giving this book to Tang Yunzhi. However, when he mentioned this matter to Tang Yunzhi, Tang Yunzhi did not accept it.
This is because the poison techniques, hidden weapons and mechanism techniques of the Tang Sect in Sichuan are unique and form a system of their own, and there is no need to learn additional poison techniques from other sects.
So this book has been kept by Xiao Ding until now. Until Xiao Ding met the ghost of Aladdin's magic lamp.
To say that Aladdin is a ghost is actually not bad. He lost his body and weight
The opportunity to seize the new body is now just a ray of soul. Although he did not go to the Netherworld to reincarnate, or go to the Netherworld to become a ghost cultivator, he became a ghost cultivator in Xiao Ding's Qiankun Pot.
