Seeing the ghost sheep cart in the distance, Zhang Chu and everyone in the team became quiet and held their breath.
It's really holding your breath without letting out any breath, rather than slowing down your breathing.
Because this is one of the rules for surviving while walking on this land.
In fact, when walking in Naihe State, you will often encounter such illusory shadows. They are the wandering souls of Naihe State. After encountering them, just hold your breath and wait for them to leave.
This illusory ghost or car is not dangerous.
What is really dangerous is that they come out of illusion, stop being illusion and become solid, then there may be a big crisis.
Zhang Chu has been following the team for so long, so he naturally understands the rules. He also held his breath completely, not wanting to offend any taboos and rules in this world.
However, the carriage pulled by the four sheep was slowly approaching the crowd.
The female boss, Niu Meng, gestured for everyone to get out of the way and stay away.
So, everyone held their breath and hurriedly moved away, trying to avoid the four-goat cart.
But soon everyone realized that they couldn't avoid it. Everyone hid to one side, and the four-goat cart also adjusted its direction to one side, always aiming at the entire team.
Everyone was immediately frightened. Which song was this?
Niu Meng reacted quickly. She gritted her teeth and knelt down with a plop on the spot.
Zhang Chuze's heart moved: "You're probably here for me, right?"
Zhang Chu thought it was very possible, because he climbed out of the ghost sedan. If anything strange happened in the team later that was related to the ghost sedan, it was most likely related to him.
Zhang Chu didn't want to hurt everyone, so he turned aside, left the team, and walked to the other side.
Niu Meng heard Zhang Chu's actions and immediately understood Zhang Chu's thoughts. At this time, Niu Meng didn't move his mouth, but made a sound with a completely different timbre:
"Xiao Chu, come back. Now that you have joined our team, I have the responsibility to protect you, boss. Don't run around."
"Is it ventriloquism?" Zhang Chu knew in his heart that this kind of ventriloquism not only requires extremely fine control of the physical body, but also requires long-term training.
Obviously, this is not the first time Niu Meng has encountered this kind of thing.
Zhang Chu didn't know how to ventriloquism. He just pointed at the four-goat ghost sedan from a distance, and then pointed at himself.
The meaning is very simple, that thing may be aimed at me.
Niu Meng was not impulsive this time. She suddenly took out three sticks of incense and threw it to Zhang Chu. At the same time, she said in ventriloquism: "You know what to do, right?"
Zhang Chu received the three sticks of incense and nodded.
He has long memorized the rules of this place. If the ghost sedan falls out of the illusion, he must kneel down and light three sticks of incense. When the time comes, he can breathe again and say all he can to beg for mercy.
Sure enough, after Zhang Chu took the three incense sticks and left the team, the ghost sedan turned around and walked towards Zhang Chu.
Moreover, the ghost sedan went faster and faster, and came to Zhang Chu in the blink of an eye.
Then, the four-goat ghost sedan fell directly from the illusion and turned into reality.
It can be seen that the eyes of these four white sheep have no black eyes, only the whites of the eyes, which look very scary.
Although Zhang Chu was not afraid of them, he still had to abide by the rules here. He immediately lit three sticks of incense and wanted to kneel down and say a few nice words.
After all, the dead are the most important. In Zhang Chu's heart, these should be the dead souls of ancient times.
However, before Zhang Chu could kneel down, the four sheep's knees softened and they knelt down.
? ? ?
Zhang Chu was stunned on the spot, why did you kneel down?
In the distance, Niu Meng, who had been paying close attention to the situation here nervously, and the team members were also so frightened that their eyes popped out.
They can't breathe now, otherwise, they would have exploded long ago.
But even so, these people's hearts suddenly accelerated, all kinds of speculations flashed through their minds, and they felt like their brains were going to explode.
Zhang Chu also stayed where he was, staring in disbelief at the four sheep kneeling in front of him. If he also knelt down, wouldn't his style be a bit strange?
At this moment, the door curtain of the ghost sedan suddenly opened.
With a pop, a large piece of bloody meat was thrown at Zhang Chu's feet.
Immediately afterwards, the ghost sedan door curtain closed.
Zhang Chu vaguely saw that there seemed to be a beautiful woman sitting in the ghost sedan.
But Zhang Chu didn't see the specific appearance clearly. He just took a quick glance and felt that the woman was wearing a red phoenix robe, as if she was about to get married.
After the woman in the ghost sedan threw the large piece of meat to Zhang Chu, the four ghost sheep gradually disappeared and stood up. The ghost sedan turned around, left, and disappeared.
At this moment, Zhang Chu looked at the large piece of bloody meat on the ground with mixed emotions.
"How do you feel, they are here specifically to bring me meat?" Zhang Chu thought in his heart: "No, no, no, it's not a feeling, they are here specifically to bring me meat!"
So, Zhang Chu picked up the meat and turned to look at Niu Meng.
Those people like Niu Meng had expressions full of disbelief.
Finally, Zhang Chu shouted: "Okay, everyone can breathe, they have gone away."
Niu Meng and the others immediately let go and breathed in the fresh air. Then, Niu Meng and others huffed around them.
Everyone was talking and feeling incredible:
"What's going on? Why did they kneel down for you?"
"Xiao Chu, I feel that they are here specifically to deliver meat to you. Tell us the truth, are you the Meng family's son-in-law?"
"Yes, Xiao Chu, you are not from the Meng family, are you? Why is there a ghost sedan delivering meat?"
"I remember, not long ago, Xiao Chu said that he wanted to eat mutton, and now it's delivered to him? Isn't it so outrageous!"
"Didn't you say that you are not allowed to eat meat when entering Naihe State?"
"Also, why did the ghost sheep kneel down to Xiao Chu? Have you ever heard of the ghost sedan kneeling down to others after it fell out of the void?"
"Don't talk about kneeling down for others. If you can avoid killing people, you are already giving a lot of face."
…
Everyone was talking a lot and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Zhang Chu himself was confused. He suddenly felt that he was his own son according to the rules of this world?
It seems like this. After crawling out of the ghost sedan and saying to eat meat, a ghost sedan immediately brought meat to him. Isn't this his biological son?
"Could it be related to the Jujube Tree God?" Zhang Chu thought in his mind.
But at this moment, Niu Meng suddenly said: "I know!"
Everyone immediately looked at Niu Meng.
At this time Niu Meng said: "Actually, when I first came to Naihe Prefecture more than ten years ago, I heard some rumors."
"What rumors?" Everyone was curious.
"I heard that Naihe State is a very strange place. It is unfriendly to many creatures. Especially high-level creatures, such as the Demon King, have a high chance of falling into Naihe State."
"Another example is the demon lord or the human lord. After entering Naihe state, it is very easy for something bad to happen."
"But for us low-level cultivators, it's not bad. At least, we haven't heard of those terrible ominous things happening to people or creatures in the spirit-building realm."
Everyone nodded.
In fact, among the bone pickers in Naihe State, there will never be any cultivators above the realm of real people. This is because this land is not suitable for real people or demon kings to come and go for a long time.
Of course, this does not mean that high-level creatures cannot set foot here, but it means that they cannot stay here for a long time.
At this time Niu Meng said again: "But I have also heard a saying that this land has special preferential treatment for the strong people in the life spring realm."
"I even heard that the Meng family's standard for recruiting a son-in-law is the realm of life spring, at least seven springs."
"And Xiao Chu owns the Eight Springs. His attainments in the life spring realm are far superior to most living beings. Therefore, Naihezhou treats Xiao Chu as a distinguished guest."
After Niu Meng finished his analysis, everyone looked at Zhang Chu in disbelief.
"Boss, are you saying that Xiao Chu really has eight springs?"
"Yes, Baquan, what incredible qualifications do you have to have? I heard that as long as you cultivate the Seventh Spring and can coincide with the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, you can already be competed for and trained by the top five hundred academies in Zhongzhou."
"Xiao Chu owns the eighth spring? Isn't that a genius among geniuses?"
"Eight springs? Are there really eight springs in the world? What celestial phenomenon does that coincide with? There is no eighth star in the Beidou, right?"
"No, it is recorded in ancient books that the Big Dipper actually has nine stars."
…
Everyone discussed for a while and became more and more curious about Zhang Chu.
However, Zhang Chu is now very ill and does not look like a genius at all.
At this time Niu Meng said: "Maybe Xiao Chu is that kind of genius among geniuses. Have any of you ever heard of someone being able to climb out of a ghost sedan?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Niu Meng said: "Anyway, I heard that the realm of Mingquan has special significance in Naihe State."
Zhang Chu slightly agreed with Niu Meng's statement. In this wilderness, geniuses were given various preferential treatment.
So, Zhang Chu no longer thought about it, but took the meat and said to everyone: "This time, can we eat meat?"
Everyone around them immediately shook their heads like rattles: "No, no, no, I don't dare to eat meat."
Niu Meng also shook his head: "No, this meat is for you, we definitely can't eat it."
Zhang Chu frowned and said, "This is what they gave you, and you don't dare to eat it?"
Niu Meng explained seriously: "This is for you, not for us."
An older team member also said: "Yes, maybe now that we have eaten meat, there won't be any surprises around you."
"But Xiao Chu, you are different from us. You may be selected by the Meng family to be the son-in-law. Once you leave, we may die if we still eat meat."
Niu Meng immediately glared at the man: "Shut up if you can't speak. Why do you want to be a son-in-law in the Meng family? Xiao Chu is our team member and will not become a son-in-law in the Meng family."
But Zhang Chu saw it. Even if the four-goat ghost sedan brought meat, no one dared to eat it.
Zhang Chu smiled bitterly: "If you don't eat, then how can I eat? I eat by myself and you watch?"
It is impossible to lose it. On the one hand, Zhang Chu is now weak and needs to eat some good food to speed up his body recovery. It is best to open the Mountain and Sea Map again.
On the other hand, those things were given to Zhang Chu. It would be disrespectful to waste them without eating them.
At this moment, Niu Meng said directly: "Just eat what you have, don't worry about our feelings."
Others also said: "Xiao Chu, don't worry, we are all very tolerant little turtles. Let alone you eating meat, we are watching. For us bone pickers, the treasures we pick up are snatched away by outsiders in the blink of an eye. , we can all tolerate it.”
"You just eat some meat, don't think about our feelings."
