Chapter 0450 A place of refuge
A convenient door opened, and darkness greeted us. A glimmer of starry sky could be seen overhead, but the slightest light was not enough to dispel the darkness.
This is Chen Pingdao's hiding place, located in the secret cave of the Cape Noire tribe of Gangde, Africa.
Bai Jing waved her hand, and the bitter sea lantern flew out of her hand, suspended above everyone's heads, and the jumping firelight suddenly lit up a large space.
Sou!
An arrow suddenly flew over, heading straight for the Bitter Sea Beacon.
Bai Jing's hand waved violently, and the bitter sea lantern flickered to the side to avoid the arrow.
Ning Tao said loudly: "Senior Chen, what do you mean by this? I brought my family to visit you, but you entertained us with arrows. Since you don't welcome us so much, let's go, and then post a circle of friends or something......"
Before Ning Tao finished speaking, Chen Pingdao's voice came: "Can't you just let me stay here quietly, you can come by yourself, you still bring so many people, what do you want to do?"
Chen Pingdao walked out of the woods, holding a bow in his hand and a quiver full of arrows on his shoulder. Coarse linen clothes, with long gray hair, he is dressed in a bit of a Great Qin archer. It's just that there is no archer's momentum on his face, just a very angry but helpless expression.
Ning Tao said with a smile: "Senior Chen, I haven't seen you for a while, your complexion is much better." I came here to take refuge this time, and I hope that Senior Chen will take me and my family in. ”
Chen Pingdao suddenly stretched his face and flatly refused: "I think you're bringing your girlfriend on vacation, right?"
"Wangwang!" The Roaring Sky Dog suddenly rushed out from behind Ning Tao and barked at Chen Pingdao.
Chen Pingdao's gaze moved to the Howling Sky Dog, and a smile suddenly appeared on his elongated face, and he said to the Howling Sky Dog, "Dog, come here." ”
The Howling Dog said, "What are you doing here?"
Just this sentence, Chen Pingdao was scorched by thunder, and he was stunned for a while before he came out with a sentence: "It, it...... It's not a dog demon, how can it speak human language, what kind of dog is it?"
Ning Tao said with a smile: "This is a long story, why don't we go to your house to make a cup of tea, and we can talk while drinking?"
Chen Pingdao smiled bitterly: "Although you helped me get out, but now it seems that you have become my trouble, no matter what, there is a cause and effect, I can't escape your retribution after all, you and your family can stay if you want, but you have to build your own house, and you are not allowed to come to my house if you have nothing to do, except for it." He gestured to the whistling dog.
Ning Tao said: "Qing Chai, Hao Hao, Sister Bai, Senior Yin, you take a look around, build a house wherever you like, this place is full of spiritual energy and is suitable for training, and you can also come and live for a period of time in summer and winter to escape the heat and cold." Then he added, "Come with me, let's go to Senior Chen's house and sit down." ”
"Okay, Daddy. The Roaring Sky Dog said that it had actually been observing Chen Pingdao all the time when it spoke, and it didn't know why it also had an indescribable sense of intimacy with Chen Pingdao.
Qing Chai, Jiang Hao, Bai Jing and Yin Molan each bowed slightly to Chen Pingdao, which was regarded as saying hello to the owner here, and then wandered to choose the address to build the house. The three women were talking and laughing, Yin Molan was chatting with Hu Xiaoji in her arms, and there was no tension of "fleeing" in the whole family.
Ning Tao took the Howling Dog to Chen Pingdao's house, and then entered a thatched hut. There is a coffee table in the room, as well as a mattress for sitting, and it seems that it is a tea room dedicated to drinking tea.
Chen Pingdao made three cups of tea, and even had a cup of the Howling Sky Dog, and after putting the teacups away, he looked at the Howling Sky Dog and said, "Dog, just live here with me, be a companion with me, and I will make you delicious food every day." ”
The dog's mouth cracked slightly, and it seemed to be a disdainful expression: "Old man, do you have an IFI here, do you have a mobile network or telecom broadband?"
Chen Pingdao shook his head.
The roaring dog said: "Then what do you have to do here, you can't even play on your mobile phone, let alone play Tik Tok." However, if Daddy and the Master are going to come and stay, I'll come and play with you. ”
Chen Pingdao's face had a smile on his face: "Okay, good, you are welcome to come to live for a long time in the future and come to play often." ”
His reaction was already expected by Ning Tao, Tiangu Daoist, just from this title, it is not difficult to see that this thing is a shovel official in the cultivation realm who loves dogs like his life.
After chatting a few words and taking two sips of tea, Chen Pingdao cut the topic to business: "You said you were fleeing this time, what happened?"
Ning Tao briefly recounted the incident of rescuing the hostages from the Holy Mountain and destroying Wu Yue's flying sword magic weapon in front of the clinic, and then said: "That's it, then Wu Yue and Nicholas Conti both want to snatch the Danfang from me, and I am not the opponent of either of these two people without leaving the clinic." I could have easily escaped myself, but my family couldn't, so I brought them here for shelter. While there is still rent to be paid this month, this time is also good for collecting spiritual materials to refine and find Zudan. ”
Chen Pingdao said worriedly: "Those enemies you mentioned, they won't find here, right?"
Ning Tao said: "Probably not, if you want me to leave early, then you can help me." ”
When Chen Pingdao heard this, he waved his hand again and again: "I hate fighting and killing the most, I won't go out to fight with you, and you don't mention this matter again." ”
Ning Tao said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to go with me to face Nicholas Kandi or Wu Yue, you don't help me fight, but you can help me find spiritual materials." You have lived for more than 2,000 years, and you have been to many places, and you must know better than me what spiritual materials there are. For example, real ambergris, where should I find this spiritual material?"
Chen Pingdao thought for a moment before saying: "This is actually a very simple question, you will know the answer if you think about it carefully." Our nation claims to be the descendants of the dragon, our sea is called the East China Sea, and there are many legends and stories of the dragon king of the East China Sea. ”
Chen Pingdao's words gave Ning Tao a sense of sudden clarity, and he also thought of a character, the shark spirit Yang Sheng who was met by Zhang Chengdong, the imperial physician of the Qing Dynasty last time, if he looked for Yang Sheng, he would probably be able to get real ambergris!
Chen Pingdao said: "What else do you need, give me a list, and I'll tell you where to find it." There's a reason why I'm living in seclusion here, there are a lot of spiritual materials in this land, and I think I can probably help you get the spiritual materials you need in a few days. ”
Ning Tao said politely: "I knew that Senior Chen could help, so I will write you a list." ”
Chen Pingdao said: "Although I got out of the clinic, I can be regarded as the former owner of the clinic. I don't have the ability to run the clinic, but you have the ability, I don't want to see you die, I want you to continue to run the clinic, I want to see how far you can run it. ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Ning Tao's mouth, and the resentment against Chen Pingdao in his heart dissipated. He opened the small medicine box and took out a regular prescription slip and began to write the list.
Half an hour later, Ning Tao appeared alone in the stone house next to the waterfall at the end of the Black Horn Tribe. He left a bloody lock in the stone house, and no one dared to erase it.
There were a large number of precious medicinal materials and spiritual materials piled up in the stone house, and the amount was considerable. The last time Ning Tao took some precious medicinal materials and spiritual materials from this stone house, he hadn't been here, and after a while, the people of the Black Horn tribe had collected so much for him. Among them, there are actually two spiritual materials needed to refine the new version of Xun Zu Dan, which is really a charcoal in the snow.
Ning Tao was overjoyed: "I won't take your things in vain, go back and discuss with Bai Jing, and the Shenzhou Charity Company will use the Black Horn Tribe as an overseas base to take root in the land of Africa." ”
He was not in a hurry to bring these precious medicinal materials and spiritual materials back to the Outer Heaven Clinic, and he walked out. He took refuge here at home, greeted Chen Pingdao, and naturally wanted to meet with the Eagle Chief.
The black corner of the night, the sky is as clean as a wash, and countless stars twinkle in the dark blue sky, as if it is a mysterious language, telling the secrets of this universe to all living beings. If you can decipher it, you may know everything.
Ning Tao felt something in his heart, but he couldn't say it. Human beings are extremely small to this universe, and even a cultivator like him is a speck of dust in the sea of stars, let alone those ordinary people who work from 9 to 5?
Where is the fairy world?
Is the Immortal Realm a more advanced civilization?
Will there be a higher level of world and civilization above the fairy world?
None of this is known.
Throughout the ages, I don't know how many cultivators and demons have practiced hard, fighting with the heavens, fighting with the heavens, in order to unravel these mysteries and see the "truth".
Before he knew it, he had arrived at the settlement of the Black Horn tribe, and Ning Tao saw a few tribal warriors patrolling at night, and those tribal warriors also saw him. One of the tribal warriors ran to inform the Eagle Chieftain, and the rest of the tribal warriors laid down their weapons and simply fell to their knees on the ground, muttering something in their mouths.
Ning Tao couldn't understand what they were saying, but he also guessed that the few tribal warriors knelt down to him as a god. He stepped forward to pick up a few of the tribal warriors one by one, and then walked towards the eagle chieftain's tent surrounded by several tribal warriors. Several tribal warriors shouted as they walked, and more and more people from the Black Horn came out of their respective houses, shouting and walking around Ning Tao, and the team became larger and larger.
Before Ning Tao could reach the king's tent of the Black Horn Tribe, the Eagle Chief came over, dressed in a tiger skin and holding a scepter inlaid with bones and precious stones, and knelt down as soon as he reached Ning Tao's side.
Ning Tao stretched out his hand to help Chief Xiong Xiong Eagle up, and said in English, "Chief Eagle Male, my wives and I are going to live here for a while, no problem, right?"
The Eagle Chief respectfully knew: "You are our protector, and your wife is naturally also our goddess, so you can live as long as you want." ”
The following night is destined to be a carnival night full of singing and dancing.
