Returning to that familiar and unfamiliar place again, Zhong Hou had mixed feelings in his heart.

The road is still the same road, the tree is still the same tree, the air still has a strong local flavor, and the gurgling water still flows into the distance.

The childhood playmates have grown up, the uncles and aunts have a little more vicissitudes and gray hair, and some old people have disappeared. The only thing that is the same is that the smiles on their faces are not as bright as they were at the beginning, a little more bitter, and more memories.

"You are ... Are you Hou'er?"

Four years have passed, and the thickness of Zhong, which was less than 1.7 meters at the beginning, is now close to two meters. The angular face, the darker and stronger figure, and the scattered hair make the whole person look particularly domineering.

It is in stark contrast to the original immature appearance.

The villagers almost didn't recognize him.

As for the raccoon, the villagers did not see it. Because Zhong Hou was afraid that the fox would scare these ordinary people, he put it into the fantasy world.

"Aunt Li... Long time no see... ”

"You're really thick?"

"Ahh You are a thick child... Almost unrecognizable. ”

"Aunt Li is good... ”

"Come on ... Call Brother Zhong... ”

"Brother Zhong, hello... ”

"Well... You're Aunt Lee's child, right?

"My name is Tian Da Niu. ”

"Hehe... Daniel... Good name... ”

"Why did Hou'er come back?"

"After being away for so many years, I am ready to come back to pay respects to my father. ”

"Hou'er is really filial. Don't worry, they are, we often have cleaning. ”

"Thank you all then. ”

"You're welcome. ”

"Go back and say hello to everyone, everyone misses you. ”

"Okay. ”

"Uncle Wang... Uncle Li Gen... Uncle Wang... Uncle Zhong... Little plums... Yes man... I'm back... ”

Zhong Hou shouted loudly all the way along, feeling a rare comfort.

At first, most of the villagers couldn't recognize Zhong Houlai, after all, the contrast between the front and back was a bit big, and after many years, it was normal not to remember it for a while.

However, as Zhong Hou reported to his home, all the villagers came to hear the wind in an instant.

That's right, it's all, because Zhong Hou's voice is really a bit loud, and it's hard to hear it.

And everyone knows that Zhong Hou left to avenge his father, and the enemy is an immortal. Therefore, regardless of whether the revenge has been successful or not, at least the person is safe and sound, so that everyone can feel at ease for a while.

After being polite to each other for a long time, Zhong Hou came to his father's grave under the leadership of the village chief.

The village chief immediately went to arrange it as soon as he learned that Zhong Hou was back, and at this time, the sacrifices were raised, and the various sacrifices and processes were not sloppy at all.

Since Zhong Hou's old house had burned down, he went directly to the village chief's house that night.

The dinner was very sumptuous, which was regarded as a catch for Zhong Hou.

After the meal, Zhong Hou didn't beat around the bush in the slightest, and asked the village chief directly: "Village chief, how are you doing these old days?"

"Good, good... I can eat and sleep... It's so good... ”

"Village Chief, there's something I'd like to ask you about. ”

"What's the matter?"

"It's about my parents. ”

"Why do you suddenly ask about your parents?"

"There are some things that I don't know how to explain to you ... ”

"You don't have to explain, I know what you want to know. ”

"You know?"

"Wait a minute. ”

With that, the village chief got up and went back to his room, and then took out something.

Zhong Hou took it with both hands and found that this thing looked like a piece of metal and a piece of scale, but unfortunately there were no words or graphics on it, so he couldn't tell what it was.

At this moment, a burning sensation actually began to rise from the position of the star rune on his right arm.

The village chief didn't notice anything, and began to say to himself: "Your father should have told you that your mother died because of difficult childbirth... There is no such thing ... But I don't know much, I just know that you are an orphan who was picked up by your father from outside.

When you pick it up, you have nothing but a shroud, and you only have this unknown thing.

Your father gave me this piece of it, saying that he would take it back and hand it over to you when you were eighteen years old, and tell you the truth. Pity...

When your father died, I considered whether to give this thing to you, but considering that you were going to avenge your father, in order to avoid your concern, I planned to wait until you returned safely before telling you the truth.

Now it seems that you have experienced a lot of things in the past few years outside, and you should have heard some information about your own background, otherwise you would not have asked me about my parents today. ”

"Thank you... I'll take it back and study it, so I won't bother tonight. Zhong Hou hurriedly thanked him, then immediately put away the piece and turned away, not daring to stop at all.

Seeing that Zhong Hou's expression was different, the village chief just wanted to ask, but when the words came to his mouth, he found that Zhong Hou had disappeared, and finally he could only put away his words helplessly, and stood outside the door and looked into the distance silently.

I don't know how far I ran, Zhong Hou came to a no-man's land, and before he had time to think about it, he quickly rolled up his sleeves and exposed the star runes.

At this time, the six dots on the 'bucket' pattern exude bursts of silvery-white halo, as if they are lit up at any time, and as if they are going to be extinguished at any time.

And the burning sensation on the 'bucket' pattern became stronger and stronger, as if it was about to set his entire arm on fire.

However, this level of scorching heat, compared to the time when the fusion of the blue charm left the fire, it was simply a small thing, and Zhong Hou didn't pay attention to it at all.

He had only one thought on his mind at this point.

Could it be that the Nakshatra Rune is about to be activated?

The six points continued to flash and flash, and Zhong Hou's eyes were tired.

The burning sensation continued to burn and burn, and the burning made Zhong Hou tired.

Idle and bored, Zhong Hou took out the piece of stuff again and looked at it carefully.

Only then did he realize that although there was no mark on it, it was crisscrossed with spider web-like lines, like the scales of some kind of creature.

Could it be that it fell from some creature?

Could it be that the reason why the star rune is activated at this time is related to this scale?

I don't know how long it took, the flickering light disappeared, and the burning sensation subsided, accompanied by a huge stream of information.

According to the content of the information, Zhong Hou summarized four main points.

First, the 'Dou' pattern is the master of the seven houses in the north.

Second, you can cultivate the power of the stars through stargazing.

Third, when all the six stars of the 'Dou' pattern are lit up, you can awaken, and after awakening, you can sense the specific location of the remaining six nights.

Fourth, when the Seven Nights come together, the final mission will be unlocked.

Like Longshan, there is only a method of cultivation of the power of the stars, and there is no method of use.

However, as the lord of the Seven Houses in the North, Zhong Hou has one more task, which is to find the other six houses.

At present, it is known that there is only one person in Longshan, and there are still five people missing.

Find the remaining six, Zhong Hou has to lead them to complete the unknown final mission.

According to Zhong Hou's heart, in fact, he didn't want to do this, he always felt that this matter was not a good thing for the Star Continent.

There is even history to prove that he was right in this way.

Long Shan had already told him about this.

But in the dark, Zhong Hou felt that he had a reason to do it.

It's very contradictory, but it's helpless.

However, there is too little information to tell.

So, Zhong Hou turned his gaze back to the scales.
