It was late at night.
The lights were still on in the main room of the Zhang family's new house, and Zhang Yan had been sitting on the chair in the same posture for a long time.
Bai Yu has left. Zhang Yan had no real plans to take down the opponent. I don't want to get into trouble with the monsters, a heterogeneous group hiding in the dark, just for no reason.
Although the person left, Bai Yu left a verbal invitation and a tooth said to have been replaced by a swallowing beast as a certificate. It was said that when Zhang Yan was free or had difficulties in the future, he could take this tooth to the "Yuan Pharmacy" shopkeepers in various places, and someone would naturally receive him and help him find a solution.
When Zhang Yan heard the news, he thought he had heard it wrong. Yuan Pharmacy? Isn’t that the largest pharmacy in Namyeon? Not only is he connected with the military, but he is also looked after by many big men in the temple, accounting for half of the patent medicine and medicinal materials business in Nanyuan Kingdom. Not only in Nanyuan Kingdom, but also in many other human kingdoms, it is said that there are branches of Yuan Pharmacy.
Who would have thought that such a behemoth would be associated with a demon species. It even seems that the connection is quite close.
It can also be seen from this that Bai Yu is very concerned about Zhang Yan's future situation and believes that Zhang Yan will definitely come to visit him in the near future. It's exactly the same as what he said before, "You have no choice."
Perhaps in Bai Yu's eyes, even if Zhang Yan could kill a ghost king, it was nothing. In the face of the huge size and strength of the Sanctuary, there is no possibility of survival if you fight alone. Only by taking refuge in their demon species can one survive.
But then again. Is there a free lunch in this wilderness?
Obviously it can't be that simple.
Zhang Yan had already seen this kind of way when he was running around on the earth. It's nothing more than fishing for the long haul, and I'm sure you won't have the choice to come to the door yourself. Although others can help you, the price won't be decided by you.
At least in Zhang Yan's view, since Bai Yu dared to treat him like a fish so blatantly, he must have a back-up plan. There is no fear at all that he will reveal the information about the demon species.
But these things didn't make Zhang Yan think about it for so long. Is the fundamental reason because he is afraid of the so-called sanctuary? Is a monk who can gain spiritual energy from heaven and earth feedback from ghosts and boost his cultivation level afraid of ghosts? If he was afraid, Zhang Yan would have run away with his family long ago. Will he wait until now?
Others may be disturbed and frightened by the constant disturbance of ghosts. But Zhang Yan was eager for the other party to come quickly. In his current situation, I don't know how many ancestors on earth would be so greedy that they would crawl out of the ancient tombs.
What Zhang Yan is really thinking about is the internal reason for "hunting spiritual creatures" mentioned by Bai Yu. According to Bai Yu, not all monsters can see spiritual objects. Instead, only if the companion beast is successfully identified, and the companion beast is a beast-devouring demon species, can the spiritual object be seen. The reason is that you can borrow part of the ability of the companion beast, and one of the abilities of the swallowing beast is that it can see strange existences such as spiritual objects.
Swallowing beasts can speed up their growth rate and growth potential by devouring spiritual objects. The more it eats, the more powerful it becomes, until it is completely out of the growth stage and becomes an adult swallowing beast. By then, the swallowing beast will no longer have such a big desire for spiritual things.
From this, Zhang Yan can infer that possessing swallowing beasts is the fundamental motivation for monsters like Bai Yu to hunt ghosts everywhere. It is also an important reason for their enmity with the Sanctuary. But it is obvious that there are definitely more than just ghost hunters like Bai Yu among the demon species.
Companion beast... This is the first time Zhang Yan has heard of it. The demon species can borrow the abilities of the demon beasts, but in turn, can the demon beasts also borrow the abilities of the demon species?
Organize your mental thoughts. Zhang Yan picked up the inch-long swallowing beast tooth placed on the table and put it away. He had carefully explored this tooth before using his senses. I found that its material was very special, with a strong scent of Five Elements Wood in it. Perhaps he was chewing ghosts by relying on this God-given ability?
Having learned the lesson from last time, Zhang Yan did not immediately continue practicing. Instead, he planned to say hello to his family after dawn and then find a quiet place to meditate.
He stood up from the chair, looked at the sky outside, and walked around the house twice. Finally, he found a garden hoe and filled in the potholes in the backyard that had been hit by the thunder. After confirming that there was nothing missing, I went to the well in the new house to get some water and went to the bathhouse to wash myself. I killed four people and one ghost in one night, and I always felt dirty.
At dawn, before midnight, Zhang Yan heard a knock on the door and the chirping voice of his younger sister Zhang Huiyuan.
"What are you doing here so early?"
"Here! Mom asked me to bring you breakfast. She also said that you will definitely not go back to Pig Mouth Alley. Let me tell you, don't forget to send all these invitations today!"
Zhang Huiyuan squeezed in and jumped around. She couldn't get enough of her new home.
"Brother, if I tell my mother to move here first like you, will my mother agree?"
"I won't agree. I'm here to see my family. Why are you moving here? Just wait until the eldest brother's wedding is over before moving. Be careful not to get scolded by your mother for talking too much."
"Humph." Zhang Huiyuan pouted, acknowledging the fact that her second brother said. But she really couldn't wait to move in soon. Especially the new house here has a hut and a bathhouse, which is the biggest temptation for Zhang Huiyuan. These two seemingly simple things are so inconvenient in Zhuzui Alley that it would make me cry if I talked about them too much.
Ignoring the little girl who ran to the back to find her own boudoir. Zhang Yan smiled and sat at the table and began to eat some meatloaf and a jar of rice soup that his mother asked him to bring. While eating, he looked through the two red invitations placed beside him.
The invitations on the table are of good quality and high-end. The words above were specially written by experts from the bookstore.
Based on Wang Lanping's habits, she shouldn't do this kind of wasteful thing. Find some pieces of red paper, cut them out and write on them yourself, and then you can use them as invitations. Why would you need to buy them specially? Are you hiring someone to write it?
Because these invitations are not for close neighbors or acquaintances. It is for people with official status and people with unusual status.
The Zhang family is a foreigner in Langyuan City, with few relatives and limited close relationships with neighbors, excluding some current interactions with the wood shop. There is nothing else to ask for.
But Zhang Yan is different here. He still has connections to maintain in Langyuan City. Especially since they mentioned it in advance, it would be rude not to invite you.
One is Zhou Cang, the city guard of Langyuan City, and the other is Luo Changshan, who is still in Langyuan City.
Zhang Yan must send these two people in person. The time on the invitation is five days later.
After Zhang Yan finished eating, he shouted a few times to the little girl who was staying inside and couldn't come out. After calling her out, they went out together. Asking his little sister to help in the carpentry shop, he diverted to the garrison camp outside the city. Before leaving, he took a small porcelain bottle from the blindfold in the house and took it with him.
