Zhou's yard.

Zhou Tianshen was lying on a rocking chair in the yard, the sun shining through the willow tree in the yard on his chest, and his whole body was warm.

Above the sky, there are occasionally a few scumbag birds; at the gate of the courtyard, I don't know whose house did not close the door properly, a black-haired dog taller than a human ran out, and was standing there; on the courtyard wall, a lazy white cat lay there listlessly, its white beard reflected in the sunlight turned golden.

Zhou Tianshen, who was watching all this, let out a sigh of admiration pleasantly, "If you ask about the good scenery in the world, you can teach passers-by to find it everywhere." Comfortable, beautiful, finally no longer have to live alone, I feel comfortable when I think about it. ”

The spring breeze is blowing, and the willows are still clinging.

It has been ten years since Zhou Tianshen came to the Tianshou Continent, and in the past ten years, he has traveled almost all the places around Laohuai Village, except for a few villages far away from here, including the two nameless mountains on both sides of the village that stretch for many miles.

In these ten years, he has accomplished almost anything that he has not done in his previous life.

Climbing mountains, climbing trees, fighting, walking dogs, teasing cats..... It's just too much.

Thinking of spending so much time alone in that cold world, Zhou Tianshen was full of grievances, a stomach full of sadness, and he couldn't find anyone to talk to, and he didn't know who locked him up there, just lock him up, so leave someone to talk to him, even if you are captured by enemy agents, people still have a scene of torture.

"Alas, forget it, since God has given me a chance to start over, let's live this life well. But I don't want to go to heaven anymore. Zhou Tianshen looked at the sky with palpitations, and now he still had bad memories of that time in his mind.

Just when Zhou Tian was complaining about the sky, Wang Duozhan ran in from outside with a green cloth bag on his shoulder, still holding a book with a brown book in his hand.

The little boy stood in front of Zhou Tianshen, first put the cloth bag on the ground, and then held the brown book in both hands, raised it above his head, and looked at Zhou Tianshen with blank eyes.

Zhou Tianshen said with a smile, "This book has been talked about many times, you can't get tired of listening to it, if you really can't find other books for me to read, you can tell me, I'll go to Wang Cunyuan to borrow it for you, I heard that Ma Xiandi's grocery store has some new novels, if you don't have the money to buy it, I can lend it to you, anyway, your family has such a big inn, I'm afraid I won't have the money to pay me back." ”

The little boy shook his head, his hands holding the motions of handing over the book.

Zhou Tianshen, who couldn't resist the little boy, reluctantly took the book, straightened up, and put the book on his lap.

The little boy grinned and squatted obediently at Zhou Tianshen's feet.

Zhou Tianshen looked at the brown cover, was stunned for two or three seconds, and asked, "Wang Duozhan, is this "Tianshou Diary" newly bought?"

Because he vaguely remembered that there was a drop of oil on the cover of the earlier book, which was dripping right in the middle of the cover.

The little boy raised his head, glanced at it and said, "Well, I bought the new goods from the forest shop the day before yesterday." ”

"Where did you go from here?"

"The original is still at home, I heard the shopkeeper of the forest shop say that this book was recently completed by the one named Ju Baishui, and some new content has been added to the original foundation. ”

The little boy grabbed Zhou Tianshen's ankles with both hands, shook them from side to side, and said coquettishly, "Oh, you read it quickly, it's dark in a while, and I'm going home." ”

"Got it, got it. ”

Zhou Tianshen turned a page and read it aloud.

"The continent under our feet is called the Tianshou Continent, according to historical records, the Tianshou Continent was born at the beginning of heaven and earth, and there are humans, elves, oceans, necromancers and cave beasts. In order to end the grievances between the two races, the strongest of the human race, the Emperor of the Lock Race, and the king of the Necromantic Race, the Poison Dragon, had met in a one-on-one duel in the realm beyond the sky, and the loser must lead his people to the most remote corner of the Tianshou Continent - Yazhou to survive, and he will not be born forever. ”

"The Emperor of the Lock Fall has lived up to expectations and achieved victory, and the seriously injured poisonous dragon led the Necronomicon to hide in Yazhou, 12,000 years ago..."

The little boy suddenly interrupted Zhou Tianshen and raised his head to ask, "Has the Emperor really become an immortal? Why has there been no news of him since the Great War? Moreover, I have heard from others that the Emperor of the Lock Fall was accompanied by several divine beasts, and it was with the power of these divine beasts that he defeated the poisonous dragon." Now think about it, if the Emperor Lockdown fails, will we not be able to live in Laohuai Village. ”

Zhou Tianshen flipped through the back and said, "I'll see if there is a cause for this incident in the back, but don't worry, if that's true, I'm afraid that the human race would have been extinct a long time ago, and the environment in Yazhou is not suitable for human survival at all, so the Emperor of the Lock Fall will fight to the end and hit the poisonous dragon hard." ”

About two-thirds of the way through the book, the figure of the Emperor of the Locks has never been seen again.

"It seems that the damage of that war to the Emperor of Suo Yuan is really not small, I'm afraid that he hid in a place to heal his wounds, and turned into an immortal alone. ”

The little boy said in a lost mood, "He is a great hero of the Tianshou Continent, but in the end, no one knows his whereabouts. ”

Zhou Tianshen rubbed the little boy's head and comforted, "Don't be sad, if one day you become an immortal like him, maybe you will meet him." ”

The little boy burst into tears and laughed.

Zhou Tianshen then recited, "The Tianshou Continent is divided into seven continents and eight oceans, and the seven continents are Zhongzhou, Feiyu Prefecture, Xiancai Prefecture, Cunzhou, Nanzhou, Kunzhou, and Yazhou. Among them, Zhongzhou is the largest, with tens of millions of sects, and the Huang Zhaozi Temple has become a monopoly and has become the leader of many sects, and the Huang Zhao Academy has become the most popular sect college in the Tianshou Continent by relying on the Huang Zhaozi Temple. In addition to the Huang Zhaozi Temple in Zhongzhou, the most eye-catching is the five Tianshan Mountains, which are the three peaks of heaven, earth and man and the outstanding people and spirits, as well as the towering Zhushan Mountain, where the cranes are flying. ”

"Yazhou is inhabited by the necromantic clan, Feiyu Prefecture is the hometown of elves, Nanzhou and Kunzhou have herds of cave beasts infested, Xiancai Prefecture is a gathering of hundreds of directors, human race, elves, cave beasts and necromancy coexist on the same continent, and they are happy. ”

"Among the seven continents, Chuzhou is the smallest, divided into three boundaries, five major countries, and six major factions. ”

"The three boundaries are Xianyang, Anhui, and Bailong. ”

Zhou Tianshen looked at the little boy and said, "We are here in the Xianyang Realm, where there are Wuhe Kingdom, Sanchai Kingdom, Twelve Rooms and Twenty-three Caves. ”

"Twelve rooms?" Zhou Tianshen was puzzled, "Didn't there only be eight rooms here before, how could there be four more rooms?"

The little boy stood up, looked at Zhou Tianshen, and grinned, "I know this." ”

The little boy cleared his throat, put his hands behind his back, raised his head with his chest straight, and pretended to say, "It is true that there were only eight rooms and twenty-three caves in the Xianyang Realm, but just last year, a battle over the territory quietly unfolded without anyone knowing, and no one knew the process of that battle, but after that battle, the territory occupied by the eight rooms inexplicably had four more rooms, they were the Wind and Snow Room, the Mountain God Room, the Dao Ancestor Room and the Walker Room. I heard that the owners of these four rooms are righteous brothers, and everyone's cultivation has reached more than three levels of the earth's mental state. ”

Closed the book and lay on the rocking chair, the cool breeze blew the broken hair in front of Zhou Tianshen's forehead, "How did you know about this?"

The little boy squatted at Zhou Tianshen's feet again, opened the green cloth bag, took out a piece of sugar cake from it, stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely, "This is what the shopkeeper of the forest shop told me, he said that when he was outside chopping wood, he had seen several people scuffling together on the mountain, and he guessed that it was related to the extra four rooms. ”

Zhou Tianshen snatched the sugar cake from Wang Duozhan's hand, "Isn't this the dinner you brought me?"

The little boy looked at Zhou Tianshen with an innocent face and pointed out the door, "Your parents are back." ”

Before he could finish speaking, a loud laugh came from outside the courtyard, and a man in a brown coat and green cotton shoes walked into the courtyard, carrying two dying red-haired pheasants and a narrow mahogany box.

"Tianshen, see what I found for you?"

"Red-haired pheasant!"

Zhou Tianshen jumped up from the rocking chair with a 'poof', took the pheasant thrown by the man, put it in front of his eyes, and kept looking at it, "Didn't you say that this kind of chicken is no longer allowed to hunt? Where did you find it?"

The man put down the mahogany box in his hand, came to Zhou Tianshen's side, grabbed the neck of the red-haired pheasants, and strangled them directly, "This is what your Uncle Tieliu found when he was chopping wood on the mountain, there are five of them, I met your mother and him in the mountains, and he gave me two." Don't go back tonight, Uncle will make you chicken to eat. ”

The little boy, who had already been drooling, looked at the pheasant and nodded in response.

"Aren't you going to Tianxiang Town, why did you come back so soon?"

The man packed up the rocking chair, put it in the corner, picked up the broom on the side, and cleaned the fallen leaves in the courtyard, "There is going to be an exhibition in Tianxiang Town these days, and in order to ensure the safety of the exhibits, no one is allowed to enter or leave the town. ”

Zhou Tianshen picked up the mahogany box on the ground and wanted to open it, but found that it had already been locked.

Zhou Tianshen stood in the courtyard bored and asked, "What is so precious?"

The woman rolled up her sleeves, carried a small wooden bucket, and held a wooden spoon in her hand, watering the vegetable patch in a corner of the courtyard, and said softly, "I heard that it is a three-scaled fish from Babaoyang, and I don't know what those people think, and the three-scaled fish is also something they can touch, and they are not afraid of causing any disaster." ”

The woman wiped the sweat from her forehead with her hands, and after watering the vegetable patch, she picked up a handful of grain and fed the chickens in the cage.

Zhou Tianshen poured a glass of water for the woman, handed it to the woman, and asked, "Three-scale fish, is it very precious?"

The man took over and said, "The biggest difference between triscaly fish and other fish is that they only have three scales on their bodies, one on their head, one on their abdomen, and one on their tail. It is said that these three scales are comparable to the strongest iron in the world, and in the hands of cultivators, they can exert the effect of water and fire. ”

The woman continued, "This fish can only be found in the Eight Treasures Ocean, and it is one of the Eight Treasures in the Eight Treasures Ocean. ”

Zhou Tianshen took the porcelain cup, held it in the palm of his hand, and asked curiously, "Then what are the other seven treasures?"

The woman thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "I remember it was the dragon bone, the merman oil, the sea lion teeth, the yellow turtle shell... , I really can't remember the rest. ”

"I know what's left!"

Wang Duo looked up on his little face, full of pride.

He opened the "Tianshou Diary" in his hand and said loudly, "The heart of the long-tailed dolphin can cure all diseases, the eyes of the Napoleon wrasse can be used as the pearl of the night, and the skin of the blue whale can be sewn into clothes, warm in winter and cool in summer." ”

Zhou Tianshen leaned over, stared at the black and white paintings on the books, and asked, "And the portrait, what is the origin of this chrysanthemum white water, how do you know everything?"
