At dawn the next day, Zhang Chu woke up.
He found that there was no one in his yard.
Bai Ruolan and Bai Jie are not here, and neither are Tao Zhanzheng and Li Daidai.
So Zhang Chu walked out of the small courtyard, and as soon as he came to the street, Zhang Chu saw Bai Ruolan leading a group of women returning from the small village.
These women all carry a large basket on their backs, filled with wild vegetables and grass seeds.
At the entrance of the village, the old village chief and some men came to meet them. When they saw their return, they all hurriedly took the basket.
This is the rule set by the big city.
In these small villages around Chuixing City, men are not allowed to go out hunting, and only women are allowed to go wild at night and collect some wild vegetables and grass seeds.
At night, if a man dares to step out of the village, he will be shot by the patrols of the big city.
As for the daytime, people in big cities will not care about the fighting in small villages.
Because during the day, people in small villages did not dare to hunt. The wilderness was full of hunting teams from big cities.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Chu thought to himself: "No, no matter what, we have to get enough food. We can't always let women raise it. It's too dangerous to go out to collect at night."
Although Zhang Chu brought back some meat from Xinlu, it was not much.
Zhang Chu's mustard bag contained mostly various precious metals and materials. The two ancient donkeys he brought back were simply not enough.
"It seems that we should go to the big city and get some food back." Zhang Chu thought in his heart.
At this moment, Bai Ruolan and Bai Jie also saw Zhang Chu.
"Hello, sir!" Some women shouted towards Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu nodded with a smile on his face: "Thank you."
Then, Zhang Chu turned around and walked towards the spiritual pool where Baigui Cangai lived.
He wanted to talk to Cang Ai first and make plans for the future.
When he first arrived at the spiritual pool, Zhang Chu saw bubbles popping out of the spiritual pool.
Gulu gulu gulu...
"Huh?" Zhang Chu looked inside the spiritual pool and immediately discovered that Tao Zhanzheng was swimming back and forth from the bottom of the water.
Zhang Chu suddenly became angry: "Tao Zhanzheng, you bastard, get out of here!"
What’s so special, this is the water source of Zaoye Village. Everyone uses this spiritual pond to drink water, but you didn’t hesitate to get in!
It doesn't matter if your sister goes in. What do you mean by restricted area?
Zhang Chu felt that he would not be able to drink water for at least three days, and he would vomit just thinking about it.
Wow!
Tao Zhanzheng emerged from the pool, holding a white tortoise in his mouth with jagged teeth.
The little white turtle was pulling hard in Tao Zongzheng's mouth, as if he was very frightened.
But Tao Zhanzheng was holding her in his mouth, grinning, and just looking at Zhang Chu.
"You're still eating Bai Gui's son!" Zhang Chu was shocked.
Tao Zhanzheng opened his mouth, and the little white turtle fell into the water with a splash.
Then, as if a motor was installed on the little white turtle, its four little legs paddled desperately, so fast that it was blurry, and it instantly got into the bottom of the pool.
Tao Zhanzheng grinned and said, "I didn't eat the little turtle, I just played with it."
"Are you kidding? You didn't see how scared I was!" Zhang Chu shouted.
Tao Zhanzhang plunged into the water with another sudden move and fished out the little white turtle.
"If you don't believe me, just ask it. I'm really just playing with it." Tao Zongzheng said.
"Okay, okay, come out first. Who the hell let you go into the water? This is our water source!" Zhang Chu shouted.
There was no sign of repentance in Tao Zhanzheng's big eyes. She pointed inside and shouted, "There is a nest of turtles peeing in your water source every day."
"Shut up!"
"At worst, I'll let my sister take a bath inside again. Believe it or not, as long as my sister gets into the water, the men in your village will definitely rush to drink the water in this pool."
Zhang Chu said with a dark face: "Tao Zhengzheng, I found that you really bowed your head!"
"By the way, where is your sister?" Zhang Chu asked casually.
"Hey, you missed my sister!" As he said that, Tao Zhengzheng pointed to his belly.
Zhang Chu looked strange: "Did you eat your sister?"
At this time Tao Zhengzheng said: "My sister and I didn't want to stay together. She wanted to run away last night, but boom, it exploded!"
Zhang Chu's mouth twitched and he turned to look at Teng Su who was not far away.
Fujisu said calmly: "Don't blame me, I just put a curse on the two of them that cannot escape. She tried to run away, triggered the forbidden curse, and exploded herself."
Tao Zhanzheng said calmly: "It's okay, it's okay. I'll give you some more spiritual liquid, and my sister will be revived in a while."
With that said, Tao Zhanzheng opened his mouth and drank the spiritual liquid in the spiritual pool.
Zhang Chu's heart skipped a beat. This guy was swimming underwater just now. Did he realize that Zijin was too old at the bottom of the pool? Don't bite Zijin Taisui, otherwise the loss will be huge.
Tao Zhanzheng suddenly got out of the water and looked at Zhang Chu: "Huh? Why are you nervous when I get into the water? Is there a treasure in the water?"
With that said, Tao Zhanzheng plunged into the bottom of the pool again.
Zhang Chu was shocked, your strength is banned now, why are you still so naughty?
At this time Zhang Chu shouted: "Get out!"
With that said, Zhang Chu bent down and grabbed Tao Zhengzheng's neck, and lifted her out.
Tao Zhanzheng's big eyes shone: "Wow haha, there is really a treasure here!"
"It doesn't matter if you have a baby, I'm warning you, if you go into the water again, you will explode!" Zhang Chu threatened.
Fujisu's voice came: "Okay, I'll change the forbidden spell. If she enters the pool again, it will explode."
Tao Zongzhan's expression suddenly froze.
But soon, Tao Zhanzheng covered his stomach and shouted loudly: "Here we come, my sister is coming back to life!"
With that said, Tao Zhanzheng flew towards Zhang Chu's courtyard.
After a few breaths, Tao Zhanzheng and Li Daidai walked out of Zhang Chu's small courtyard.
It seemed that both of them looked a little bad and seemed to have consumed a lot of energy and blood.
But being able to resurrect from each other was a kind of validation.
"You are too cruel!" Li Daidai looked at Teng Su with lingering fear and said.
Tao Zhanzhang was heartless: "Hey, I told you not to run around. If you don't listen, you will suffer."
"You see, I'm very good, and I'm even friends with Little Turtle."
With that said, Tao Zhanzheng jumped into the spiritual pool.
boom!
Before Tao Zhanzheng could jump into the pool, her body fell into pieces and exploded completely.
Zhang Chu was stunned and extremely confused.
Is there something wrong with this guy's brain? Fujisu had just reminded her that entering the pool would explode, so why would she try?
At this moment, Zhang Chu slowly turned his head and looked at Li Daidai.
Li Daidai looked pale and said feebly: "Now you know why I want to refine her into my substitute, right? She is too disobedient."
Zhang Chu felt cold all over. Is this a problem of disobedience?
Li Daidai turned around and returned directly to Zhang Chu's courtyard, probably to resurrect Tao Zangzheng.
"What a living treasure!" Zhang Chu muttered in his heart.
Then, Zhang Chu sat cross-legged next to the spirit pool and called Cang Ai.
Soon, the white turtle Cang Ai swam out and landed on the shore.
"She didn't eat your turtle son, did she?" Zhang Chu asked.
At this time, Bai Gui said slowly: "Those little turtles are not my sons. They are my great-great-grandsons and grandchildren for several generations."
"The turtles of my son's generation would have died of old age long ago."
Then the white turtle said slowly: "Actually, even if one or two of these little white turtles are eaten, it doesn't matter. Everything is fate."
"You are open-minded." Zhang Chu said.
Then Zhang Chu said: "I came to you this time to ask you to deduce a hexagram about the future of Zaoye Village."
"Okay!" Cang Ai agreed and returned to the spirit pool.
Not long after, Cang Ai emerged from the spiritual pond with a bunch of yarrow in his mouth.
Then, Cang Ai started the hexagram with this bunch of yarrow.
Cang Ai took out one yarrow from the bunch and put it aside.
At the same time, Cang Ai slowly said: "The number of Dayan is fifty, and its use is ninety-nine..."
Then, Cang Ai used his left and right claws to divide the yarrow into two parts, and twitched the yarrow frequently to deduce the hexagrams.
As it deduced, it recorded long and short symbols on the ground.
In the end, Cang Ai got two Bagua symbols.
At this time, Cang Ai said: "Of these two hexagrams, one is the main hexagram, which means the present, and the other is the secondary hexagram, which means the future."
"This hexagram becomes the hexagram, and good, bad, bad, and good fortune are hidden in it."
At this moment, Cang Ai stared at the two symbols and deduced silently.
After a long time, Cang Ai slowly spoke: "Chuixing City will fall into darkness forever."
"Huh? No way!" came Fujisu's voice. Obviously, she was surprised by the result.
Cang Ai said lightly: "The hexagram shows that Chuixing City will completely fall into darkness before long."
"The entire demon ruins will enter darkness until the next reincarnation."
Tengsu's leaves swayed loudly, and he said in a puzzled tone: "That shouldn't be the case. The patron saint of Chuixing City is known as the number one in the demon market. How could he allow Chuixing City to fall into darkness forever?"
Zhang Chu's heart moved. Number one in the Demon Ruins?
At this moment, Zhang Chu looked at Teng Su: "Teng Su, I heard that someone called you Yaoxu No. 3, and Yaoxu No. 1 is the patron saint of Chuixing City. So who is Yaoxu No. 2? The Jujube Tree God? "
Tengsu's leaves shook: "No."
"The first one in Yaoxu is the patron saint of Chuixing City. The second one in Yaoxu is the patron saint of the Tower Town. I am the third one in Yaoxu." Teng Su said.
"The patron saint of Tower Town is so powerful!" Zhang Chu was surprised.
Fujisu said in a sarcastic voice: "It's just a defensive nature and likes to take action. If it really comes to a fight, I'm not afraid of it."
Zhang Chu was immediately confused: "What about the jujube tree god and the whirling god?"
Fujisu explained: "That ranking is a ranking given by outsiders. Those outsiders don't know the power of the Yaoxu Whispering God, let alone the Purple Star Zao."
"So that's it!" Zhang Chu suddenly realized.
But Tengsu was still confused: "No, I want to ask the Chuixing Ancient Tree why it allowed Chuixing City to fall into darkness. Does it want to leave here?"
After Fujisu finished speaking, her voice disappeared.
Zhang Chu couldn't help but look up at the sky. The slender branches of the ancient Chuixing tree stretched across the sky, supporting the entire sky like a skeleton. At the nodes of some branches, there were huge stars twinkling.
It was those huge stars that dispersed the night of the demon ruins, leaving Chuixing City with some life.
At this moment, several emerald-green vine seedlings sprouted from the branches of the ancient Chuixing tree...
