Chapter 49: The Mysterious Scourge
After the birthday banquet, the three aunts, uncles and old Chen Tou sent their grandfather home, and Chen Tao also prepared to take the shuttle bus back to the city, trying to catch up with the evening self-study.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
"Hey, Brother Chen, you, come to the construction site soon, something happened!" There was a noisy shouting and scolding on the other end of the phone, and Zhou Zhuowei's voice was also rarely flustered.
Chen Tao heard his tone and hurriedly said, "Zhuo Wei, you protect yourself, I'll go immediately!"
The site of the water purification plant is just over two miles from his home in the upper reaches of the Baishui River, and Chen Tao walked like a fly, and after about 10 minutes, he ran outside the construction site.
Before he entered the construction site, he saw a group of people on the periphery, pointing to the inside and muttering to each other.
"What the hell did you dig up?
"Do you still need to ask? It must be a baby! Otherwise, can Huzi and Diao Lao Wu be anxious with the people on the construction site?"
"I heard that the excavator went down with a shovel and dug up six gold ingots, good guy, this water purification plant really chose a feng shui treasure land!"
"Listen to his nonsense, can we have six pieces of gold in our village? I don't believe it if I am killed!"
Although these people speak in a small voice, how can they escape Chen Tao's ears?
"Dig up the gold? next to the ditch?" Chen Tao was a little suspicious, and walked into the construction site, at this time the factory had just begun to dig the foundation, and there was a small mound of dirt on the ground, which was full of potholes. One hook machine and two excavators all stopped working and lay across a mound of earth.
Huzi and Diao Lao Wu, another old ruffian on Bancheng Street, stood on the other side of the mound with a group of idle young gangsters, pointing to the opposite side and scolding,
"Cao Nima, don't want to leave today! Take out the gold for me! That's our family's ancestral, you lost a piece, you see this broken factory is built up? your grandmother, we are on our territory, and you dare to cross with us! It's really awesome!"
A group of gangsters, some with digging shovels, some with pickaxes, shouted and cheered with the tigers.
"That fat man, you come over to me!"
"Lao Tzu will shoot you to death as soon as he digs the shovel!"
These local snakes usually bully the people, and they are the tyrants of Bancheng Street, and even the locals are bullied, not to mention the outsiders.
Chen Tao saw that there was no way to pass the front, only to jump over a trench and go around to the other side of the mound, only to see Zhou Zhuowei, Ke Laifu, Xu Sanshui, and two workers were shrunk under the excavator with sad faces.
Chen Tao looked in the direction pointed by Zhou Zhuowei and saw that the bucket of an excavator was full of dirt, and a piece of reddish-brown metal was slanted into the soil.
It's strange that the dirt is also pale red!
Chen Tao's heart chuckled, and a terrifying name flashed!
Bloodland!
"The blood red of the soil is for the blood soil, and where there is blood and soil, there will be a disaster star!"
Chen Tao also became nervous, with his current cultivation, he would definitely not be able to deal with the Disaster Star, but how could the Disaster Star appear in the middle of the town?
This is not a mass grave, nor is there a place where the yin qi is particularly heavy?
Legend has it that the Calamity Star is formed by the accidental convergence of the spiritual energy of all things in heaven and earth, and it needs to be cultivated with extremely heavy evil qi or yin qi, otherwise it cannot survive. Once the Calamity Star survives, the power is very huge, and even the cultivators in the Qi Refining Period will not dare to compete with it, and the surrounding soil will turn blood red due to the weight of the evil qi!
At this moment, Huzi suddenly jumped on the arm of the excavator, then walked to the bucket, reached out and pulled the reddish-brown metal out of the dirt, and threw it to Diao Lao Wu on the mound.
Diao Lao Wu poured a bottle of peasant women's spring on the metal, and the mud and gravel on the outside of the metal and the reddish-brown skin peeled off, revealing a yellow and clear corner.
"Gold,, it's gold!"
The eyes of the thugs were wide, and there was a greedy look in their eyes!
How much do you have to buy such a big piece of gold? It's an absolute windfall!
Diao Lao Wu shouted, "Brothers, go around!
The ruffians rushed over.
Ke Laifu thought to himself, "These village ruffians are simply lawless, can't let Zhou Zhuowei be beaten! Zhuo Wei too, what's the use of not calling your uncle-in-law and calling Chen Tao?"
He complained in his heart, stood up boldly, and said in a trembling voice,
According to the laws of the state, what is dug up in the ground and cannot be proved to be owned by the state, you can rely on ......."
"By your mother!" Huzi grabbed a brick and threw it over, Ke Laifu was so frightened that he quickly shrank his head, and the brick slammed on the excavator and bounced out, and Ke Laifu didn't dare to take his head now.
Chen Tao has been paying close attention to these people, just now, when Diao Lao Wu poured the corner of the gold, a very faint red gas came out from the red skin that peeled off to the ground, and the village ruffians inhaled the red gas and immediately became manic, especially Diao Lao Wu, who was relatively close, suddenly a blood-red silk thread suddenly appeared in his pupils!
Blood-infused pupils!
These greedy village ruffians have unwittingly fallen for the tricks of the Calamity!
Can't wait any longer!
If there is a bloodshed and the calamity star is drawn into the body, bad luck will befall everyone! The true power that you have painstakingly cultivated will also be wasted!
Thinking of this, Chen Tao jumped out, raised his palm and slashed forward, the palm edge was entrained with true qi, and in the sound of breaking the air, it struck Diao Lao Wu's chest with great speed.
Under the effect of true qi, Diao Lao Wu was suffocated and fainted directly!
Without waiting for the village ruffians to react, Chen Tao rubbed his body forward, his arms stretched out at 180 degrees, his palms exerted force at the same time, and two village ruffians fell down in response, followed by Chen Tao's cat waist and shoulders obliquely, hitting the lower abdomen of a village ruffian, and the village ruffian fell down holding his stomach!
In just one breath, Chen Tao put down five people!
He knew that the situation was critical, so he had real power in his punches and kicks, and once he hit, it would make people dizzy. But there was no real harm. Chen Tao then made a move, and in just two minutes, all the village ruffians were put down.
Zhou Zhuowei, Ke Laifu, Xu Sanshui, and those construction workers were all stunned!
Ke Laifu rubbed his big face, "Little, young man, you know martial arts!"
Chen Tao hurriedly said, "Where is all the gold dug up? Take me quickly!"
A worker drove the excavator away, and someone shoveled it twice, revealing four pieces of gold of various sizes. It turned out that when the hooligans heard that they had dug up the gold and wanted to come and grab it, the workers were in a hurry, buried the gold again, and parked the excavator on it.
Chen Tao put the five pieces of gold in a row, and he felt a strange evil aura, which was not very strong, but it was strange. Chen Tao's knowledge of cultivation comes from "eliminating evil and serving good", and he has limited knowledge of all kinds of abnormalities in the world, and he does not know how to deal with them.
Suddenly, one of the pieces of gold shook!
It's like something is about to burst out of its shell!
