"Sir, what should I do? Luoshui River seems to be really polluted." Tong Qingshan asked Zhang Chu nervously.
Zhang Chuze's face was solemn: "No matter what, you have to find out whether the horse is still alive. Get closer and observe, but don't get too close."
"good!"
The two rode unicorns and approached carefully.
The closer they got, the more shocking what they saw.
Several hunters sitting by the river fishing, each of them has obviously been polluted, but the degree of pollution is not large.
One of them had a hole as big as a walnut in his neck. It was dark inside and seemed to have black petals growing out of it.
There was another person who had a hole the size of a coin rotted around his wrist. You couldn't even see it unless you looked carefully.
Of course, most people wore clothes and looked normal, but no one knew whether there were changes in certain parts of their bodies.
Zhang Chu even discovered that even their guardian stone turtle had a corpse-green spot on its tail.
"Contamination is starting, but it's not obvious yet." Zhang Chu said in a low voice.
Tong Qingshan clenched the spear in his hand and asked in a low voice: "Sir, do you think this was brought back by Madu?"
Zhang Chu nodded slightly: "It's possible."
Then Zhang Chu said: "Get a little closer and take a closer look before talking."
The two of them had arrived at the river, and they could see several large white fish swimming slowly under the calm surface of the river.
One of the big white fish had its back rotted and weird bugs crawling out of it.
There is also an unknown black animal, with a strange night-bloom blooming on the tip of its nose...
"Is the entire river polluted? There are many villages that rely on this river to live!" Tong Qingshan exclaimed in a low voice.
Zhang Chu had been staring in the direction of Luo Shuichuan. At this moment, a woman washing clothes by the water suddenly spotted Zhang Chu and Zhang Chu.
This woman looked quite normal. After seeing Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan, she felt a strange enthusiasm:
"Oh, who are you? Aren't you from Luoshuichuan? Why are you here? Are you thirsty?"
"Come on, come to my house, I'll feed you some."
The woman didn't even want a basin for washing clothes, and ran directly towards the two of them with excited eyes, wanting to drag Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan home.
Although they were far apart, Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan suddenly became nervous.
Zhang Chu said hurriedly: "Don't come over!"
The woman immediately stood on the spot and was very obedient.
However, she still had an abnormal excitement and seemed very enthusiastic.
"Two heroes, since you have come to our Luoshuichuan, don't treat this place as an outsider. Our Luoshuichuan is very hospitable, and you will be full when you come."
Many people began to notice the movement here. Some fishermen, Huansha people by the river, and even some people in Luoshui River discovered Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan.
Those people actually gathered around.
Many people walked this way and shouted:
"Are they from other villages? Come on, come on in, please!"
"Master Madam has said that we must reflect on our previous actions, we must not bully other villagers, and we must be kind to others in the future."
"Go and tell Master Madam that there are people from other mountain villages passing through our Luoshui River."
For a while, there was a lot of noise nearby, and many people rushed here.
It seemed that these people meant no harm and were friendly.
However, many people’s bodies are obviously contaminated!
Tong Qingshan immediately clenched the spear in his hand and shouted: "Don't come over here!"
All the people who came around immediately stood still and stopped approaching.
An old man said hurriedly: "You two, don't get me wrong, we Luoshuichuan have no ill intentions!"
Zhang Chu knew that some of the polluted people had normal thoughts and could communicate with others normally.
So Zhang Chu changed his words: "I'm sorry, our unicorn is afraid of strangers, so don't get close to him."
The old man said: "I know you don't have a good impression of our Luoshui River. A few days ago, Madam Madam went to other villages to collect taxes, which made people panic."
"But fortunately, Madam Madam repented."
Zhang Chuze asked directly: "Are the horses back?"
"Yes." The old man said.
At this moment, someone in the distance shouted again: "The boss is coming, the boss is coming!"
Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan immediately looked towards the town.
Sure enough, Ma Du and Zhuge Hong, dressed in red, appeared at the same time!
At this moment, Ma Du's head was half rotten, and the other half was the original appearance of Ma Du, looking ferocious and terrifying.
There was a large transparent hole in Zhuge Hong's chest, and a strange night-blooming night flower seemed to have replaced his heart. A petal could be vaguely seen through the hole.
With gentle smiles on their faces, these two people strode towards Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan.
Zhang Chu immediately took out his big bow, and Tong Qingshan also pointed his spear at an angle, guarding Madu.
But suddenly, the expressions of Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan changed at the same time.
When they both had murderous intentions towards the horse, both of them felt an inexplicable throbbing deep in their souls at the same time!
"Xiao Jin!" Tong Qingshan exclaimed in a low voice.
"Quan of Life!" Zhang Chu also took a breath of air.
Now Madu has actually crossed the realm of the well of life and entered the spring of life!
"What's going on? Could it be that after being polluted, there will no longer be restrictions on the life well, and can I step into the life spring?" Zhang Chu was shocked.
Of course, Zhang Chu still shouted: "Don't come over!"
Ma Du and Zhuge Hong suddenly stopped in place. Although these two people had been contaminated, their personalities had changed and they were harmless to humans and animals.
At this moment, Ma Du bowed his hands to Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan: "I wonder where you two are from?"
"Huh?" Zhang Chu's heart moved. He didn't even recognize himself and Tong Qingshan!
Zhang Chu planned to test him to see if he had completely lost his memory.
So Zhang Chu said: "We are from Zaoye Village."
Ma Du suddenly understood: "Oh, Zaoye Village, I remember that I sent a few people to Zaoye Village to collect taxes, but they were killed by people from your village."
"That's right!" Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan immediately became vigilant, fearing that he would take action immediately.
However, Ma Du patted his head and half of his face was full of apology: "I'm so sorry. I was possessed by demons before. I thought that the demonic ruins were the outside world and spoke with my fists. I did a lot of wrong things."
"Fortunately, I have realized my mistake and repented in time."
"Friends from Zaoye Village, come and sit in our Luoshui River, and I will apologize to you."
Zhang Chu looks weird, am I sorry?
It was so weird to hear these words coming from Ma Du's mouth.
Next to Ma Du, Zhuge Hong also smiled apologetically: "Don't get me wrong, we did do something wrong before, but we, Luo Shuichuan, have repented. Please come in and tell us."
As he spoke, he also made a gesture of invitation.
Zhang Chu immediately shook his head and said very directly: "I'm sorry, I don't trust you."
Ma Du and Zhuge Hong were not angry either.
At this time, Zhuge Hong smiled slightly: "Well, since you two don't believe it, we Luo Shuichuan will not force an explanation. We can only say that the future is long."
Zhang Chu pondered for a while and finally asked Ma Du: "What's wrong with your head?"
Madu sighed, touched his rotting head, and then said: "Well, a few days ago, I went hunting and met a deer. I was kicked by the deer and my face was swollen. It never recovered. .”
"Where is your chest?" Zhang Chu asked Zhuge Hong.
Zhuge Hong smiled: "I didn't expect that your eyesight is so good, you can even detect that I was hit in the chest by a wild boar."
Zhang Chu continued to ask: "I heard that you are from the land of wood spirits and brought many people to Luoshuichuan. Where are your subordinates?"
Ma Du suddenly looked sad: "Well, we went hunting before and encountered a tide of beasts in the mountains. Most of the brothers died in the battle. Only Zhuge Hong and I survived under the protection of the brothers."
"Where is your dragon whip?" Zhang Chu became more and more unscrupulous, asking some very sensitive questions.
But Ma Du was still very easy-going: "Oh, I met a fierce tiger and snatched my dragon whip away."
Zhang Chu understood that part of Ma Du's memory was confused, and he completely forgot about the part where he was killed.
However, the earlier memories are still preserved.
At this time, Zhang Chu asked again: "Ma Du, I want to know, what are your plans next?"
Ma Du said: "The Demon Ruins will be in chaos during this period, and outsiders will come to snatch a seed that can become a god. Originally, I still had some illusions about that seed."
At this point, Ma Du laughed to himself: "But then I thought about it, who am I? How can I be qualified to covet that kind of treasure?"
"So, I plan to take the people of Luoshuichuan to spend this period of time safely."
"In the future, we will no longer go to other villages. We will stay in our own hunting area, hunt and fish to survive this period."
Hearing what Ma Du said, Zhang Chu was immediately relieved, as long as they didn't run around.
At this time, Tong Qingshan whispered: "Sir, how about we go back? I think it's almost done."
Zhang Chu nodded and prepared to leave.
He cupped his hands and said, "Farewell!"
Zhang Chu does not intend to kill Madu in this state. No one knows whether he will be infected if there is a conflict.
But at this moment, Ma Du suddenly shouted: "You two, walk slowly!"
Zhang Chu stopped immediately: "Is there anything else?"
At this time, Madu touched his arms and took out a few black insect eggs.
The insect egg was as big as a sparrow egg, but its surface was soft. You could see that there seemed to be insects inside, and the soft eggshell kept changing its shape.
Ma Du said: "You two, we went to other villages to cause trouble and caused trouble for you."
"These two precious medicines can allow people to break through the life spring from the life well. I think you two are in the life well realm, so you can take them."
Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan's expressions suddenly changed slightly.
And Ma Du hurriedly said: "Don't worry, you two, these two precious medicines are given away for free, and you will not have to pay any price."
Madu's expression was very sincere.
Zhang Chu resisted his nausea and rejected Ma Du: "Thank you for your kindness. We will not be rewarded for our merits."
Ma Du sighed: "Forget it, it's my fault that you two don't trust me, Ma Du. I can't blame anyone else. It's just a pity that you two have such good qualifications."
"Farewell!" Zhang Chu and Tong Qingshan turned around and were about to leave.
Ma Du shouted: "You two heroes, if you need anything in the future, you can come to our Luoshui River. We in Luoshui River will respond to your requests."
At this moment, Zhang Chu suddenly felt something in his heart. He would respond to every request?
The current Madu seems to be in a very "selfless" state of the Holy Mother, and it is unlikely that it will really respond to requests.
So, Zhang Chu stopped again and looked back at Madu: "Master Madu, I heard that you have some mysterious gold and materials in your hand that can be used to refine weapons?"
