Chapter 61: Elixir Seeds
Picking up the white jade-like little Ganoderma lucidum, Yang Tao couldn't help but be a little stunned, before this he had been very curious about what the Xianzhi Lingguo was, although he knew that Zhilao Village had donated the Xianzhi Lingguo to help Deputy Director Li break through to the innate realm, but he had never known what the Xianzhi Lingguo looked like, after all, this thing had already been surprised by Deputy Director Li at that time.
And now, when he looked at the so-called Immortal Zhi Spirit Fruit in his hand, he couldn't help but have a look of crying and laughing on his face.
He knew what this was, it wasn't an immortal mushroom spirit fruit at all, but an elixir seed called the Jade Spirit Emperor.
It's just that what makes it difficult for him to understand is why there is such an elixir seed on the earth, you must know that the growing conditions of this thing are extremely harsh, and there are almost no such environmental conditions on the earth.
"It's no wonder that this old Zhicun village still couldn't successfully carry it for more than a year after getting the seed of the Jade Spirit Emperor, and in the end it could only be sacrificed for Deputy Director Li to break through and cultivate." Yang Tao couldn't help but sigh.
He is very aware of the preciousness of this Jade Spirit Emperor seed, if he can successfully carry out the Jade Spirit Emperor and provide it to the Immortal Spirit Sect of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance to refine the Jiuyang One Qi Jade Spirit Pill, I am afraid that he will be able to directly break through to the True Yuan Realm, and even if Bai Yang has a spatial artifact in his hand, if he wants to kill the other party, it will be as simple as pinching an ant to death.
But it's a pity that he can't wait for that time, so he can only be as violent as Deputy Director Li.
"Alas, it's a pity." Yang Tao couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Yan made more than ten calls in a row, but no one answered, and still no one answered, she felt anxious and helpless.
"Why is this happening, is there something wrong with Tao?" She muttered softly with some uneasiness, the whole person sat on the toilet and was full of worry about Wang Tao, but she didn't know what to do, she even wanted to fly to Beijing immediately, but what could she do when she got to Beijing, she didn't even know where the other party's house was and what she was doing.
Poplar thought about it, and finally decided not to release the little monkey for the time being.
Although he was able to get the little monkey out of the iron cage, how could he restrain the little monkey without the cage, and if he ran away at that time, how could he go back to the business.
What's more, how does he know if the little monkey has been secretly installed with a secret recorder or something like that by those perverted scientific researchers, just like in some science fiction movies, there are no terrorists who directly install bombs in people's brains, although the little monkey's brain may not be installed in the bomb, but it is completely possible to install an image recorder in the eyeballs.
"It's better to be careful." Poplar muttered to himself.
Then he took out the set of clothes made in the cloth shop in Qingshan Town from the storage space and changed it for himself, he suddenly felt very sloppy, this dress has been worn for many days, although he has been put into the storage space after returning to Earth, he has never taken it out and washed it.
However, now was not the time to consider whether to wash the clothes or not, he had to figure out why Qingshan Town had changed so much as soon as possible, and find Xiaoyu's whereabouts as soon as possible.
Although this town is very close to Qingshan Town, less than five miles away, Poplar doesn't know what the name of this town is, because he has been staying in Qingshan Town before and has never gone out.
After changing his clothes, he walked out of the woods and in the direction of the town.
The fields outside the town are full of crops, but Poplar wonders why so few people work in the fields.
Although his heart was full of doubts, he still walked straight towards the town.
The size of the town is even smaller than that of Qingshan Town, and there is only one main road, but there are few pedestrians on the road, and almost all the people walking on the road are old people.
Most of the shops on both sides are closed, and I don't know if it's because business is difficult, but there is a tavern still open.
It's just that there is hardly anyone else in the tavern except for an old man sitting in front of the shop and sighing.
It wasn't time for lunch, so Poplar thought about it and walked towards the hotel.
Seeing Bai Yang coming, the old man sitting at the door of the hotel still had a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he still persuaded him kindly: "Little brother, this world is dangerous, why did you come here alone?" ”
Bai Yang couldn't help but be stunned, he suddenly had a feeling of going to the wrong theater, when he walked into Qingshan Town before, although people were not enthusiastic about him, at least they wouldn't say such things.
"Uh, sir, I don't know why you say that?" Poplar asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Little brother, you don't know?" The old man asked with a look of surprise.
Bai Yang touched his nose, nodded a little embarrassedly, and replied: "I really don't know, and I still bother the old man to tell me." ”
He had just returned to Luo Yuanxing, so naturally he didn't know what had happened during the time he was gone.
"Little brother, listen to the old man's advice, get out of here quickly, don't go west, if those Immortal Sect disciples see it, it won't be good." The old man persuaded.
"Oh, could it be that those Immortal Sect disciples will kill people at will?" Poplar couldn't help but ask in surprise.
The old man suddenly looked around a little nervously for a while, and asked softly, "Little brother, haven't you heard that Qingshan Town is now recruiting people?" ”
Bai Yang couldn't help but think of the people who were carrying stones at the valley mouth at both ends of Qingshan Town, and couldn't help but ask: "I've heard of it, but what does this have to do with me?" ”
The old man shook his head and sighed and said, "Those Immortal Sect disciples don't care who you are, as long as you are a young man, they will pull you to be a people's husband." ”
Bai Yang couldn't help but be stunned, and asked in surprise: "Aren't those people voluntary, these Immortal Sect disciples do this, is there any royal law?" ”
The old man sneered and said: "What is the royal law, what those immortal sect disciples are talking about is the royal law, not to mention that now a league called what is the immortal sect alliance is about to be established in Qingshan Town, I heard that the leader of the alliance of Na Lao Shizi is the uncle of the emperor of the dynasty, and it is his order to recruit the people, who dares to care." ”
Bai Yang couldn't help frowning, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Old man, what happened to this Qingshan Town, and why did this Immortal Sect Alliance choose to be established here?" ”
"Little brother, you're from out of town, right?" The old man asked suddenly.
Poplar nodded without denying it.
"No wonder the little brother doesn't know about this." The old man nodded, and continued: "The old man can't tell what happened specifically, but it seems that something remarkable was unearthed in Qingshan Town, and then a group of powerful immortal cultivators flew in, these immortal cultivators fought in the dark in order to grab that treasure, and finally somehow stopped and reconciled, and in the end, I don't know what happened, the news that the Immortal Sect Alliance was going to be established in Qingshan Town came out, and at that time, many people in Qingshan Town escaped from Qingshan Town as if they were fleeing from the wilderness, Some time ago, the Immortal Sect Alliance issued a conscription order, recruiting people under fifty to build a city, some people said that the Immortal Sect Alliance intends to build Qingshan Town into Qingshan City, and I don't know if it's true or not, anyway, it's not a good thing for us ordinary people. ”
The old man's speaking level was really bad, and his words were incoherent, so that Bai Yang still couldn't figure out what was going on in Qingshan Town after listening to it for a long time, but he did know one thing, that is, many people escaped from Qingshan Town at that time.
He couldn't find Xiaoyu and them from Qingshan Town, and it was obvious that they should have escaped from Qingshan Town as well.
But where will they go after they escape from Castle Peak? According to his understanding of Xiaoyu's character, if it weren't for Zhao He's persuasion, this little girl would definitely wait for her to come back in Qingshan Town.
And now that she is not in Qingshan Town, she was obviously persuaded by Zhao He successfully.
So how will Zhao He persuade Xiaoyu? If his guess was correct, the other party would definitely persuade Xiaoyu to wait for him to come back in a small town or village closer to Qingshan Town.
The west side of Qingshan Town is the sphere of influence of Ju'an City, where Xiaoyu should not go, after all, he killed the son of Deputy City Lord Wu at that time, and not long after that, the Deputy City Lord Wu Bacheng is still looking for the whereabouts of the two.
If it is not on the west side of Qingshan Town, it can only be on the east side of Qingshan Town, and on the east side, in addition to the town closest to Qingshan Town, Jiangzhou City is more than ten kilometers to the east.
Jiangzhou City is also a big city, Xiaoyu, the possibility of them entering the city is not high, after all, the city is too big, it is inconvenient to find people, Zhao He should also think of this, of course, he is not too sure.
If Jiangzhou City is excluded for the time being, the most likely place is this town and the villages around the town.
"Uncle, can I ask you one thing?" After being silent for a moment, Poplar hurriedly asked.
"Little brother, even though I'm here, but leave as soon as possible after asking, don't be met by those Immortal Sect disciples." The old man kindly persuaded him.
Bai Yang nodded a little gratefully, and then asked, "I wonder if my uncle saw a young man in his early twenties surnamed Zhao come to this town with a few girls some time ago?" ”
"In your early twenties, surnamed Zhao?" The old man thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Some time ago, there were indeed a lot of people from Qingshan Town who came to join us, and there were some surnamed Zhao, but the old man with a few girls hadn't seen it. ”
Hearing the old man say this, Poplar couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.
Then he said goodbye to Lao He and continued to walk along the street.
But although the street was long, he didn't know where he was going for a while, and the old people walking on the street looked at him with more eyes than surprise, more avoidance, as if he was like a plague god, which made him cry and laugh a little.
Suddenly, he saw a signboard not far ahead, and saw that the signboard had four big characters written on it: "Xiaoyu Inn".
Looking at these four big characters, Bai Yang couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly had a little anticipation in his heart.
"Xiaoyu, could it be that Xiaoyu bought this inn specifically to wait for me?" Poplar couldn't help but guess excitedly.
However, what surprised him was that when he approached, he found a white lantern and some white strips of cloth hanging outside the inn.
White always symbolizes bad luck, and there are similar customs on the earth and here.
"What's going on?" Bai Yang couldn't help frowning, he walked forward anxiously and quickly, and when he came to the outside of the Xiaoyu Inn, he found that the door of the Xiaoyu Inn was now closed, but there was a woman sitting at the door with unkempt hair, dirty clothes, and a little delirious.
The woman looked up with a grin when she saw someone coming to the inn, and she was about to say something crazy, but when she saw Poplar's face, she screamed and flinched back.
Poplar was puzzled and looked at the madwoman curiously, but when he saw the other person's face clearly, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.
