"Incompetent descendant?" Ah Zhu blinked his eyes, and the chipmunk squirrel in his arms also poked its head out and looked around.
There are only a few mysterious people in the village - Mr. Yue of Xuetang, the mother-in-law of the priest, the mute blacksmith in the east of the village, and a Jiu Mengzi who can draw and sleeps in his room all day long.
The latter two are withdrawn and rarely go out and do not interact with the villagers.
When Mr. Yue was here, he focused on teaching and never mentioned the past.
Granny Si used to be responsible for cleaning the sacrificial hall and was not found by ordinary people. In the past three years, she has been a substitute teacher and has appeared frequently in front of the villagers.
No one can tell the origins of these four people.
until today.
"The human prince outside was very grand when he came here. He seemed to be in a position of great authority. I didn't expect that he was a descendant of Granny Si."
Azhu looked up her little face and found that her mother-in-law's expression was a bit complicated, mainly a feeling of... hating iron for being unable to turn into steel.
Family scandals should not be made public. Granny Si seems to be very dissatisfied with this junior and has no intention of going into detail, so it would be better for her to ask less.
Ah Zhu could only look outside the village with sympathetic eyes.
The bald prince, carrying a dragon stick on his back, looked very strong, but he put on a flattering smile, stood by the fence, stretched out his neck, approached the villagers, and waved to say hello to Di Xiaofei.
I always feel a little humble.
In comparison, when King Yinping came to the village a while ago, he received much better treatment, and his mother-in-law even showed up to receive him in person.
This is the outcome that makes my mother-in-law dissatisfied.
The children in the village are as bold as Di Xiaofei and dare to skip Mr. Yue's class, but no one dares to skip Granny Si's class.
This silver-haired, kind-faced old woman didn't even have to stare, she just had to straighten her face a little, and she had an invisible majestic temperament that didn't allow for provocation, scaring the children into obedience. of.
"Grandma Si must have been a great person outside back then." Ah Zhu judged...
At the door of the old village chief's house, young Lin Du stood up slowly, holding on to the door frame with trembling hands, his face extremely pale.
The damage caused by Yang Qi to the soul is very obvious.
The out-of-body feeling was like the physical body falling into a pot of boiling water.
Every ray of sunlight outside was a strong stimulus, and even with the protection of techniques, it made him extremely uncomfortable.
During the half hour he fought against the demon clan, he couldn't hold on any longer and took back his soul several times, resting before leaving his body.
By now, the whole person was extremely depressed, his eyes were dim and his breathing was intermittent.
This is a trauma to the soul that an ordinary spiritual master would not be able to recover from in a year or two.
The most indispensable thing in Beishan Village is precious medicine. No matter what the injury is, you can recover by just soaking it in the medicine pool. Even so, Lin Du had to rest for several days, which shows the seriousness of the injury.
But he has no regrets.
Di Xiaofei, A'Zhu...the former playmates have made great achievements in body training or Qi training.
Only Lin Du was still in the second level. He could only fly around out of his body and create some simple illusions, with basically no fighting power.
This time, his soul patrolled the whole village, and when the monsters came in, he promptly reminded the villagers, just to prove that he was not a waste!
The old village chief felt distressed and helpless when he saw the miserable state of his grandson. Because he didn't know how to practice and didn't know what to say, he could only silently help his grandson up.
Di Xiaofei came over and patted his friend's shoulder with a smile, "Thank you for reminding me just now, otherwise I would have been attacked by two monsters at the same time."
"There's no need for this. Even if I don't remind you, the big demon won't be able to hurt you." Lin Du shook his head, understanding that this was a friend giving him face.
In fact, his help is not necessary... His expression was a little gloomy.
"You." Di Xiaofei shook his head helplessly, "You are the only one in our village who practices the way of cultivating gods. Do you know what this means?"
"I just asked the bald man outside. He is a prince and has a lot of knowledge. He said that the number of divine alchemists in the entire human race is less than two hundred, and most of them have achieved success after they are seventy or eighty years old."
"You have reached the second level of Divine Refining at the age of thirteen. Outside, you are definitely the top genius. What's the rush?"
"Really..." Lin Du was doubtful, his expression changing.
Di Xiaofei saw some clues and imitated Granny Si, patting him on the shoulder in an old-fashioned way and giving instructions:
"You are no worse than anyone else. The only thing you need to overcome is your own inner demons."
"Perhaps, this is the disaster arranged by Master Shenzhu for you."
After saying that, he turned around and left in a cool manner.
The small Beishan Village is home to so many talented people that many people there seem ordinary.
But Di Xiaofei was the first to show his face, accepting the challenges of "geniuses" from the outside world, and he quickly saw the clues.
Every child in Beishan Village, if placed outside, would be called a genius according to outsiders' standards.
"This kind of so-called genius is too weak. Lin Du, you have to hold on. Let me see if the body refiner can beat the top god refiner."
Di Xiaofei muttered and ran to the woods near the village to chat with the fox.
He found that this fox named "Hongyun" was very interesting, very strong, and seemed a little lonely.
I heard Hongyun say that he once had a companion who practiced together. Since he went away three years ago, he has never come back.
When Di Xiaofei heard this, he realized that it was Mr. Yue.
He also misses Mr. Yue a little. If Mr. Yue comes back now, he will definitely not be able to find Beishan...
Outside the village, King Kaiyuan kept his distance from the willow trees, coughed, and continued chatting with the villagers, wanting to know what their needs were.
"What do we need?" The villagers looked at each other, unable to answer.
If you need anything, you could just go into the city to buy it, but now it's even more convenient. There is a wealthy businessman named Tang Jingran in Guangping who is very attentive and will bring a whole truckload of supplies over for free.
In this way, we have enough to farm, cook, collect herbs, and raise our children every day.
It seems like nothing is needed anymore.
"I——" King Kaiyuan felt helpless. The other party had no desires and desires. What could he do?
However, the Human Emperor has assigned this task, and if it still cannot be completed, it would really be unjustifiable.
Just when I was having a headache, smoke and dust billowed from behind, and groups of carriages were approaching in a hurry.
The city lord Zou Qin led the team, and almost all practitioners from Guangping arrived. Officials and government servants from all walks of life also arrived on horseback. There were thousands of people in Wuyang.
"Quickly, clean up the battlefield outside..." Zou Qin directed his men to work while walking towards the entrance of the village.
"Is this?" King Kaiyuan asked in confusion.
"I have just received a message. Your Majesty will come in person to visit Beishan Village! There will also be many noble kings and important officials from the imperial court accompanying you!" Zou Qin said excitedly.
