After sealing the Nine Elder Immortals, Hao Shuai walked out of the cave.
The most important thing now is to determine his location and the current timeline of the Zhuxian world, so that Hao Shuai can determine his next action.
Hao Shuai did not choose to fly, but walked along the winding dirt road.
Not long after walking, Hao Shuai noticed a man in his thirties in front of him, wearing a white undershirt and carrying a heavy load of firewood on his back.
"Big brother, wait a minute!" Hao Shuai took two steps quickly, caught up with the man, showed a gentle smile, and asked: "I went on an outing with my family today. I lost my way for a while because I was nostalgic for the beautiful scenery in the mountains. I hope you can tell me where this place is.
where?"
"Brother, you're welcome!" When the man saw Hao Shuai, he immediately felt that Hao Shuai was a knowledgeable and reasonable man. "Follow this road and you'll reach Heyang City!"
"Heyang City?" Hao Shuai said in surprise. He couldn't believe that he had unexpectedly turned around this time and reached the foot of Qingyun Mountain.
Could it be that he has become handsome recently? Chaos Pearl finally recognized the fact and turned into a licking dog?!
"Brother, why don't you follow me? I just want to go to the city to sell firewood." Seeing Hao Shuai standing there silently for a long time, the man thought that Hao Shuai didn't even know Heyang City, so he said enthusiastically.
"Um~~ Thanks a lot, brother." Hao Shuai, knowing that the man had misunderstood, did not refuse, but thanked him politely.
In this way, Hao Shuai followed the man, and the two of them walked toward Heyang City talking.
After waiting outside the gate of Heyang City and saying goodbye to the kind-hearted man, Hao Shuai looked at the towering and huge city wall. Instead of entering the city, Hao Shuai turned around and walked towards the northwest direction of Heyang City.
After walking for about forty or fifty miles, a small mountain village appeared in front of Hao Shuai.
When Hao Shuai learned from the villagers that the small village was called "Cao Miao Village", he breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself: "Fortunately, it's still before the plot begins. This way, my maneuverability will be greater."
There are more than 40 families living in the village, and the folk customs are simple. Most of the people in the village go up the mountain to collect firewood and hand it over to Qingyun Gate in exchange for some silver. After meeting the stranger Hao Shuai, they all showed friendly smiles.
As a kind person, Hao Shuai also showed a friendly smile to them...
…
On this day, the sky was gloomy and the dark clouds were hanging low, making people feel breathless.
Viewed from Caomiao Village, the majestic Qingyun Mountain stretches straight into the sky, with its strange peaks and rocks, giving it a faint hint of ferocity.
"You brat, where are you running?"
A scolding, with a bit of a smile, came from the mouth of a half-grown child. He looked to be about ten years old, with handsome features, leading four or five boys and girls, chasing another child in front of him.
The child in front was two years younger than him and shorter. His face was full of smiles and he ran forward as hard as he could, occasionally turning back and making a face.
"Zhang Xiaofan, if you dare, stop!" the child behind shouted loudly.
The child named Zhang Xiaofan in the front let out a "poof" and said as he ran, "You think I'm an idiot!" As he said that, he ran even faster.
After chasing all the way, these children gradually approached the dilapidated thatched thatched temple at the east end of the village. From the outside, this small thatched thatched temple was dilapidated and had gone through many hardships in the world.
Zhang Xiaofan was the first to rush in. Unexpectedly, he was accidentally knocked by the door panel and fell over with a thud.
Several children at the back were overjoyed and swarmed up to him, pressing him down. The handsome boy had a smug look on his face and said with a smile: "I caught you, now you have nothing to say."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaofan rolled his eyes strangely and said: "It doesn't matter, you plotted against me, how can it count?"
The boy was stunned and asked: "When did I plot against you?"
Zhang Xiaofan said: "Hey Lin Jingyu, do you dare to say that you didn't put this door panel here?"
The kid named Lin Jingyu said loudly: "How can this happen!"
Zhang Xiaofan pursed his lips and tilted his head, as if he was determined not to surrender or give in. Lin Jingyu was furious, strangled him by the neck with one hand, and said angrily: "I promised to catch him and surrender, you surrender?"
Not convinced?"
Zhang Xiaofan ignored him.
Lin Jingyu's face turned red, and he exerted force on his hands and said loudly: "Do you accept it or not?"
Zhang Xiaofan's windpipe was strangled by him, and it became increasingly difficult to breathe, and his face slowly began to turn red. However, at such a young age, he had an extremely stubborn temper and insisted on remaining silent.
Lin Jingyu became more and more angry, and the strength in his hands became stronger and stronger, and he said in a series of words: "Do you accept it, do you accept it, do you accept it?"
Seeing a catastrophe happen out of nowhere, suddenly a big white hand shot out from the air, grabbed Lin Jingyu's hand, and pulled it away.
Zhang Xiaofan gasped for air, obviously holding it in very hard. The two of them were stunned. When they came back to their senses, they remembered the scene just now and looked at each other. They became more and more afraid of each other.
"Jingyu, you know what you are doing!" A scolding voice sounded beside the two of them.
Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan followed the sound and saw a handsome young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, full of bookishness, standing beside them, holding Lin Jingyu's hand with one hand.
"Yes~ I'm sorry, Brother Hao, I didn't mean it!" Lin Jingyu thought about what he had just done, and felt frightened for a while.
"What's the use of saying sorry to me." The visitor said, "Don't let Xiaofan get up yet."
Lin Jingyu was startled, then stood up immediately, helped Zhang Xiaofan up on the ground, and said apologetically: "Xiaofan, I'm sorry. I don't know how..."
Zhang Xiaofan shook his head, his breathing gradually stabilized, and said: "I'm fine. Brother Hao Shuai, why are you here?"
The visitor is none other than our pig-footed Hao Shuai, but Hao Shuai is a little different from before. The most obvious thing is that his figure has shrunk.
His height has changed from a little over 1.8 meters to just over 1.7 meters, and his weight has also decreased accordingly. The key point is that his appearance has become green and raw under the dual effects of qi, blood and medical machines.
It can be said that Hao Shuai at this time is a young boy of fifteen or sixteen years old.
"I feel bored in the house, so I came out for a walk." Hao Shuai responded casually, but turned his attention to the ruined temple.
Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan followed Hao Shuai's gaze and saw an old monk standing in the temple with wrinkles on his face, a worn cassock, and his whole body was dirty.
He only held a string of jasper rosary beads in his hand, which were crystal clear, dazzling, and emitted a faint green light. What was strange was that among the dozen or so smooth and clear sapphire rosary beads of the same size, there was also a non-jade and non-jade rosary.
Stone, dark purple color, dull round beads.
"Woooo~~Old monk Puzhi, you are finally here! Do you know that all the flowers I have been waiting for for you have withered?" Hao Shuai looked at old monk Puzhi excitedly.
At this moment, Hao Shuai thought that Pu Zhi was so pretty and cute.
After all, no one knows how hard Hao Shuai worked for this day!
