Chapter 169: Departure and Return
Originally, Cao Yanbing planned to collect the resurrected locust tree by himself, but Xia Ling joined in on the grounds that the locust tree was destroyed because of her, and she had the responsibility to cure the locust tree. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As for whether Xia Ling has another reason, only she knows.
As early as the night before departure, Zhou Xiaoning reminded Xia Ling and asked her to change into her spiritual clothes in advance before coming out, so she avoided the welfare incident and saved her face.
And the so-called spirit clothes, in fact, are the clothes that the guardian spirit uses spiritual power to make for his own spiritual host, which is very personal, and if it is put in the world, it will definitely make people feel that they are cosplaying.
However, the Psychic is also very useful, as it shields the smell of the living, making the parasitic look the same as the undead. This effect is naturally not used in one's own territory, but like Cao Yanbing and Xia Ling, when they want to go to other Zhensoul Street, it is particularly important, after all, stepping into other people's chassis without permission will be regarded as a provocation and will definitely cause a lot of trouble. With this layer of protection, if you can't avoid all the troubles, at least you won't be so easy to detect.
In addition, the spirit clothes also have good defensive capabilities, as for how strong it can be, it depends on the strength of the guardian spirit. However, even the worst spirit clothes are used as body armor to block the bullets of a police pistol.
However, there are also disadvantages, that is, when you change into spiritual clothes, your own clothes will be destroyed by spiritual power, and the whole person will be naked.
Obviously, Xia Ling already knew this when she was changing clothes in the room, so when she came out, she glanced at Zhou Xiaoning gratefully, otherwise it would be shameful to let her change her spiritual clothes in public!
"Brother, this is for you."
Cao Yanbing threw the thing in his hand to Cao Xuanliang, he had been holding that thing in his hand for a long time, probably waiting for this opportunity.
"General chain, brother, you are ......"
Cao Xuanliang looked at the things in his hand, and couldn't help but froze for a moment, this is an important certificate that symbolizes the status of the soul general, why did he throw it to himself like this.
"This thing should have belonged to you, but it was only because of my willfulness back then that you gave it to me, and now I can be regarded as returning it to its original owner."
Cao Yanbing smiled knowingly, as if he thought of how he was stalking to be the soul general of this town back then, and how his brother was helpless and handed over this general chain to himself. My brother's love for him has not changed over the years, but now that he is older, he can no longer be coquettish like he was when he was a child.
However, compared to Cao Yanbing's simplicity, Cao Xuanliang seemed hesitant, the two brothers have been living together all these years, so Cao Xuanliang knows how much Cao Yanbing has paid to Rakshasa Street, this town soul treats him very well, worthy of the name, obviously suddenly gave up this position to him, which made him feel a little more guilty in his heart.
"But ......"
"Brother, you don't have to say it. I know that your love for Rakshasa Street is no less than mine, and I am sure that you will be a competent soul general. What's more, I'm about to leave Rakshasa Street, and then this street will be protected by you, and the location of the soul of Rakshasa Street should be up to you. ā
Cao Yanbing knew Cao Xuanliang very well, just like his brother knew him, so before Cao Xuanliang could finish speaking, he spoke first and completely blocked Cao Xuanliang's mouth.
Seeing that Cao Xuanliang was still a little hesitant, Zhou Xiaoning immediately stood up and persuaded: "Okay, Xiaoliang, you can accept it." The spiritual domain is not worried about Rakshasa Street for a day or two, as soon as the soldiers leave, if you don't take over, the spiritual domain will definitely take the opportunity to send a soul general over again, is that what you want to see? ā
In Cao Xuanliang's heart, Zhou Xiaoning's words still carry a lot of weight. What's more, what Zhou Xiaoning said is also true, after Lu Tianyou's experience, Cao Xuanliang is really not at ease to hand over Rakshasa Street to others to guard.
"In that case, then okay, I'll take it first, brother, when you come back, I'll give it back to you." Cao Xuanliang nodded and said with a serious face.
I have to say that the brothers Cao Xuanliang and Cao Yanbing didn't take the soul suppression general too seriously, if it weren't for the fact that they had to become a soul suppression general to guard Rakshasa Street, they would not accept the assignment of the spirit domain at all, after all, in their hearts, guarding Rakshasa Street from beginning to end and guarding their home is the most important thing.
"Hehe, okay, it's not early, let's go."
Cao Yanbing didn't answer Cao Xuanliang's words, it really didn't matter if the soul was going to be treated by him, he just didn't worry about handing over Rakshasa Street to unrelated outsiders, but if it was his brother, he still raised his hands in favor.
"Well, you two take care. Also, brother, you are a man, you have to take care of Xia Ling. ā
Cao Xuanliang waved goodbye, this is quite normal to anyone, and there is nothing wrong with it. But for Xia Ling, the problem is big.
"Ha, this girl still needs Scrooge to take care of!"
Xia Ling's eyes glared at Cao Yanbing, and her vivid expression almost put the word "unhappy" on her face.
"Hmph, I don't want to take care of you, stupid woman. Not to mention that the strength is weak, it is always in the way, if you want me to say that you don't follow, I will save you when the time comes. Cao Yanbing's face was full of disgust, as if he was chasing mosquitoes, and he said while waving his hand.
"Ahaha......"
Cao Xuanliang looked at the two of them who were arguing and flying away with the sword, and he really didn't know what kind of expression to make except for a dry laugh.
"Okay Xiaoliang, the soldiers are all gone, it's time for me to leave."
Zhou Xiaoning also came to say goodbye, he has been in this Zhensoul Street world for more than ten years, and it has been long enough.
"Master, why are you leaving, but is there anything I can't do badly?"
As soon as he heard that Zhou Xiaoning was leaving, Cao Xuanliang seemed a little panicked, for him, who had lacked love since he was a child, Zhou Xiaoning just couldn't fill his father's position, although he didn't admit it, but he already thought so in his heart. It is precisely because of this that he behaves so gaffe.
"Xiaoliang, listen to me......"
Zhou Xiaoning appeased Cao Xuanliang, and then called Xiao Rou, who was also flustered, over, and the two of them sat in the living room like this, listening to Zhou Xiaoning talk about the past.
cough, okay, Zhou Xiaoning just told him about his origin and the situation in the current world, and let Cao Xuanliang and Xiaorou know that he didn't come back after leaving.
"I see, master, do you need my help in this world?"
After listening to Zhou Xiaoning's explanation, Cao Xuanliang was a little relieved, but it was not difficult to hear from Zhou Xiaoning's narration that the situation in the current world was more complicated and dangerous than the world of Zhensoul Street.
Xiao Rou sat quietly on the side, although she didn't speak, it was not difficult to see from her eyes that she also had the same meaning as Cao Xuanliang.
"Thank you two for your kindness, I can handle it over there, if it really comes to the time when I need help, I'll come to you."
Zhou Xiaoning smiled, he received Cao Xuanliang and Xiaorou's wishes, but the situation in the current world is quite stable, and when the alliance is officially established, the two realms will usher in a new round of development, if it is a talent who is good at management, economics or politics, he can help, but unfortunately Cao Xuanliang and Xiaorou are not.
However, this was not what Cao Xuanliang and Xiaorou meant, they all thought that Zhou Xiaoning thought that their strength was too weak and didn't want them to be in danger, so they didn't take them back.
As a result, one person and one undead secretly swore that they must cultivate more diligently in the future, and strive to help the master (Brother Ning) as soon as possible.
"Oh yes, I said to help, I did have a small favor." Zhou Xiaoning's eyes rolled and he thought of something.
"Okay, as long as you can help the master, you can do anything."
Cao Xuanliang agreed simply, but after listening to Zhou Xiaoning's request, he looked bitter and regretted that he agreed so quickly.
It turned out that Zhou Xiaoning wanted to build a space gate on the mountain to permanently connect the present world, so that it would be convenient for each other to visit each other, and secondly, he thought that Zhou Xiaoning had taken a fancy to Rakshasa Street.
To be more precise, Zhou Xiaoning fell in love with the hundreds of thousands of undead resources in Rakshasa Street.
In Zhou Xiaoning's opinion, these undead are the best labor force and soldiers, after several expansions, the area of the two realms city is much larger than at the beginning, and the population of the outer two cities is sufficient after receiving refugees from W province. However, the inner two realms have not had any population growth, and they seem to be extremely empty.
After Zhou Xiaoning came to the world of Zhensoul Street, he also had a detailed understanding of the life of the undead, the undead do not need to eat and sleep, and their various needs are extremely low, as long as they can get enough spiritual power to replenish, they can always exist.
The undead on Soul Street are waiting to be reincarnated, but the efficiency of the spirit realm seems to be very low, and there are more and more undead wandering on Soul Street, from all eras, and some of them have been desperate for reincarnation because they have waited for too long, and this kind of undead will eventually turn into evil spirits and plague Soul Street until they are eliminated.
And in Zhou Xiaoning's opinion, this is a waste, don't look at each undead as if they have their own life, but they are all messing around, rather than letting them waste their time on Soul Street, it is better to work for Zhou Xiaoning.
You must know that through the functional buildings of the Two Realms City, it is possible to produce things that have an effect on the spirits, where they can experience the same life as in front of them, and gradually their needs will increase, and they will have desires and rushes in their hearts, so the chance of becoming evil spirits will be much smaller.
Not only can those undead re-experience the joy of life, but also help Zhou Xiaoning to truly operate the inner two realms city, which can be described as the best of both worlds, why not?
In addition, there must be some of the undead who were soldiers, policemen, or other professions engaged in violent work, even after death, they may not be very peaceful, this kind of undead is simply the best source of ghost soldiers, as long as they are pulled to the barracks for training, the ghost army can be expanded!
Although Zhou Xiaoning said that it was a foolish situation, and it sounded like a win-win situation, Cao Xuanliang still hesitated, after all, this was a violation of the rules of the spiritual domain, and it would be difficult for him to do it when the spiritual domain was investigated.
