Chapter 39 Things Are Human
At this moment, Zhoujiazhuang is shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.
In the lobby of the ancestral hall, Zhou Zhengtang, the current owner of Zhoujiazhuang, sat in the upper position, with red eyes and thick eyebrows. He listened to several families under the hall report on the destruction of Tianxiang Tower and the tragic situation at the scene. His teeth clucked, and his lips trembled with anger. He grasped the hands of the armrest of the teacher's chair and blue tendons because of excessive force. The nail almost fell deep into the hard wooden armrest.
There are two rows of seats on both sides below the head of the lobby, and almost all the leaders of Zhoujiazhuang are gathered here. The atmosphere is very solemn, and their faces are frosty and murderous.
Tianxianglou is not only the industry of the Zhou family, but also one of the five financial resources of the Zhou family. However, Tianxianglou is different from other industries. What Tianxianglou receives every day is not bills, but real gold and silver, which can be used immediately. As soon as Tianxiang Tower collapsed, the income of the Zhou family immediately tightened by one fifth, and Zhou Jiazhuang's huge daily expenses were immediately overstretched!
Originally, Zhoujiazhuang returned this morning because of Miss Zhou's strong return, and the whole Zhoujiazhuang was full of festive atmosphere. People rushed to tell each other, cheered and hugged, set off firecrackers, and was lively.
But now, the Tianxianglou incident has dispersed this atmosphere. It seems that someone deliberately blocked them during the festive period in Zhoujiazhuang, but chose to make trouble at this time. This is even worse than slapping Zhou Zhengtang face to face.
In the whole Zhoujiazhuang fell into a solemn atmosphere. When Zhou Zhengtang gathered all the leaders of the family to discuss countermeasures in the ancestral hall, a strange face appeared among the sparse pedestrians in Zhuangkou.
He is a rare fortune teller. Although he is so old, his face is strangely rosy, with three wisps of white beard fluttering in the wind, wearing a gray free towel, gray Taoist shoes, and wearing a gray gossip robe, which is very fairy-like.
The most important thing for pedestrians is the green bamboo flag in his right hand. The top of the flag is wrapped with a copper bell, and a long white paper is glued to the pole. Eight big words are written on the white paper: "Disaster relief, point out the mystery!"
All the big families in the countryside of Chu generally gather together and live together, so the gathering places of these big families are named after their own surnames, such as Zhoujiazhuang, Lijiazhuang, Wangjiazhuang, Zhaojiazhuang and so on.
Although the whole tree village is of its own people, other parts of the village are open except for the construction of walls in important places that prohibit outsiders from entering. Usually, whether it is a peddler or a merchant or a tourist, they can wander around the village casually. Of course, if anyone destroys the village, it is simply an act of looking for death. The whole village is full of people. Even if they don't do anything, saliva can drown people. Therefore, although the villages of these families are open, no outsider dares to mess around inside.
However, most of the people who go outside the village are from the village. Therefore, as soon as the strange fortune teller appeared, it immediately attracted the eyes of pedestrians. However, everyone just looked sideways and didn't pay much attention, because it was not the first time for a fortune teller to enter Zhoujiazhuang to find business.
In this way, the fortune teller walked leisurely into Zhoujiazhuang in the curious eyes of the Zhou family.
The fortune teller is naturally dressed as Xu Han.
Xu Han admires the thief fairy in his heart. The 1,500 changing charms in the Heavenly Ring are very high, and the lowest ones are all low-grade god-level runes. After using the god-level rune to transform, people who have cultivated the realm of gods and people can't see any clues. Moreover, after using the change symbol, it can not only change the appearance and clothing, but also change the voice, and the skin of the whole body also changes with it. Even its own cultivation is tightly hidden and becomes in line with the cultivation level of the characters drawn on the change symbol.
What surprised Xu Han even more was that even the props of the characters on the picture were changed, such as the flag in his hand, which was really wonderful!
There are almost any characters in the 1,500 change charms in the Heavenly Ring: peddlers, merchants and farmers, princes, scholars, riches, old and children, tall, short, fat and thin, rich and poor, beggars, emperors, general Taoist priests, etc. It can be said that with this 1,500 change charms, Xu Han is completely Let's have a good experience and feel 1,500 different lives.
For example, at this moment, Xu Han is experiencing a part of the fortune teller's life.
Through the small stone bridge at the entrance of the village and entering the heavy land of Zhoujiazhuang, Xu Han stopped and looked at the familiar and strange environment in front of him, and suddenly felt like another world.
Where to go first? Xu Han stopped, thought for a moment, and then turned familiarly into the gravel path on the right.
This road can almost be said to be the Huanzhuang path of Zhoujiazhuang. If you walk through this road, you can bypass the dense area of Zhoujiazhuang's houses, make a big circle, and then go straight to the back mountain.
Houshan is the logistics base of Zhoujiazhuang, which contains rice fields, vegetable gardens, farms, fish farms and pastures, etc., and even mass graves are located in Houshan.
Since he came to Zhoujiazhuang, the first person Xu Han wanted to see was of course Jiao Hu. After seeing Jiao Hu, he began to implement the plan set in his mind.
Originally, he didn't want to visit Jiao Hu so early, but there were too many things that happened today. Some things have developed to an irreparable extent. He had a hunch that he would soon leave Shiniu Town! From then on, he wandered around the world. Therefore, when I planned to come to Zhoujiazhuang to do business, I temporarily decided to meet this brother-like good friend to see how he is doing now.
Three years ago, Jiao Hu was implicated by him, deducted three months' salary and demoted to the back mountain farm, saying that he would pick the pig manure from the farm to the vegetable garden three miles away for fertilizer every day in the future.
Three years, I don't know how Jiao Hu is doing now? Xu Han's heart suddenly became a little urgent.
When passing a remote place, Xu Han suddenly moved his mind, looked at no one around, and swept around with his divine consciousness to confirm that there was really no one around, and then quickly took out a small hidden charm from the heavenly ring.
This is a low-level rune, which can hide your body, cultivation, breath and sound. Only the cultivation above the realm of Sanpin real person can barely start, but the real energy consumed is quite considerable.
In the three years under the ground, Xu Han browsed everything in the Heavenly Ring and found countless charms, elixirs, magic weapons, treasures, equipment and weapons. However, because Xu Han's cultivation level is too low, and the level of these things in the Heavenly Ring is frighteningly high, most of the things Xu Han cannot be used. However, he has tried everything that can be driven. Especially for the hidden charm and the changing charm, Xu Han can't put it down, because he knows that these two charms will become his most commonly used tools in the future.
After taking out the hidden charm, Xu Han quickly put it on his forehead. The true qi in the Dantian immediately surged on his forehead and was quickly absorbed by the hidden charm. In an instant, the true qi in Xu Han's Dantian was sucked away!
After inhaling the true qi, the hidden charm suddenly emitted a burst of yellow light, and then quickly disappeared. Xu Han's body disappeared with the yellow light and disappeared in an instant, as if his whole body had disappeared in this world.
"Wow, this thing is really too expensive, and it only lasts half an hour, which is really not worth it. If you are faced with a powerful enemy, it is extremely dangerous to use hidden symbols. If it weren't for life and death or something important, or if there is no life threat, I really wouldn't have used it. It's better to use the change character. The change symbol only needs a small amount of true qi to ensure its continuous operation, which is much more convenient.
Although he has tried to use hidden symbols countless times under the ground, Xu Han is still shocked and can't stand it.
After sighing for a moment and feeling the wonderful feeling that his whole body was almost completely integrated with the air, Xu Han strode towards the back mountain.
The hidden charm can only hide the body, cultivation, breath and sound, and cannot change the body shape and weight. Therefore, Xu Han can't fly in the air or escape into the ground. If a person comes to face and collides with Xu Han's hidden figure, the person will definitely be bounced away, as if There is a completely transparent solid in the air.
Soon, Xu Han came to the back mountain farm.
The air here is full of the strong smell of excrement, and the sound of poultry and livestock rises and falls one after another, bustling.
However, Xu Han searched every corner, and there were only three people in the whole farm. One was cleaning up horses, the other was feeding chickens, and the other was repairing pigsty. Xu Han knows these three people and have been working in Zhoujiazhuang for a long time, but their faces are much more haggard than three years ago, and there are many more wrinkles on their faces.
Where is Jiao Hu?
In a stunned man, Xu Han suddenly remembered the day three years ago.
Is it possible that he picked pig dung to go to the vegetable field three miles away?
Well, it must be.
Thinking of this, Xu Han raised his feet and left.
However, he went through all the fields of Zhoujiazhuang and still couldn't find Jiao Hu.
"Why don't you ask them?" Xu Han said to himself, and then immediately gave up the idea, "It's not appropriate. This may affect my plan. Look for it again."
So, Xu Han returned to the farm to continue to look for it. This time, he no longer ran around blindly. He sat on the ground, closed his eyes slightly, and his consciousness slowly spread, covering the whole farm and searching little by little.
Hmm?
There is a man in the mill!
Xu Han was shocked and immediately stood up and walked quickly to the mill.
