Chapter 154: Cooperation
Everyone gave a warm welcome, and the mayor of the town, Lu Mengcheng, politely introduced Pei Mengqing and the two big oranges to everyone, and introduced them to the townspeople.
There are more than 60 households in the town, and it is a long time to introduce, but Pei Mengqing still listened patiently, and in the process, quickly looked at each household.
It wasn't until the introduction of Yao Hetai, the deputy mayor of Dao, that Pei Mengqing and the others paid more attention.
This is the deputy mayor that the ghost said before.
On the surface, this guy is still a person, and he hasn't been transformed into that kind of monster by the Shadow Touch, but it's only suitable for small people in the middle of the spirit level.
To put it mildly, the current Pei Mengqing can spray him to death with a sneeze.
Soon enter the stage of village and town feasts, everyone has a meal together, which means that everyone will be the townspeople of the same town in the future, and they must help each other in the future, and don't intrigue like in the outside world, otherwise they will be regarded as enemies by others.
And Daozhen Hebei Li Yuanzhong and the gun overlord Hongren also appeared at this time.
Of course, the two of them didn't come to eat, but to see Pei Mengqing.
"What does Brother Li think?" Wang Hongren asked.
"It's a real cat family, it's credible." Li Yuanzhong replied succinctly.
Wang Hongren nodded, indicating that he and Li Yuanzhong agreed on the same page.
So the two of them also took advantage of the fact that everyone was eating and drinking, found Lu Mengcheng and said something, mixed into the feast, and came to Pei Mengqing's side.
How can Pei Mengqing say that he is also in a complete soul cultivation realm and has a strong memory.
He remembered exactly what the more than 60 residents looked like and what their names were, but they weren't here just now.
So he raised his vigilance, and asked as if he were normal:
"Who are the two?"
Li Yuanzhong clenched his fists: "Under Li Yuanzhong." ”
Wang Hongren's movements are synchronized, but a little slower: "Under Wang Hongren." ”
"Uh...... Under Li Bai's word is too white, just call me Li Taibai, what is the matter with the two of you looking for me? ”
For people who don't trust, Pei Mengqing has always said fake names.
Li Yuanzhong and Wang Hongren directly expressed their intentions:
"The two of us are from Wuling County, and we are going to go to Tianhe County."
"Oh? Coincidentally, we are from Tianhe County. ”
Pei Mengqing immediately became vigilant, and even Xiao Ri and Juju looked at the two of them vigilantly.
They came from Tianhe County, and these two people said that they were going to Tianhe County, so coincidental? Maybe there's a fraud.
Li Yuanzhong looked overjoyed, and hurriedly asked:
"Oh? Dare to ask, what is the situation of Hexian County today? Is it too late to dare to go now? ”
It's not that Li Yuanzhong is not cautious, but that the cat family is trustworthy.
Let's just put it this way, where there is a cat family, the person they are willing to follow must be a good person who can be trusted.
Therefore, neither he nor Wang Hongren should have any undue vigilance and vigilance against Pei Mengqing.
"Uh, what do you mean? Why do you want to do in Tianhe County? ”
Wang Hongren and Li Yuanzhong glanced at each other and took over the conversation:
"Dare to ask when Pei Shaoxia left Tianhe County? Have you experienced those events in Tianhe County? ”
"It's been experienced, but where did you hear about it?"
It's the first time someone calls him Shaoxia, and Pei Mengqing is quite happy in his heart.
Don't blame Pei Mengqing for feeling strange, the speed at which this news spreads is very slow, it is estimated that until now, the state pastors in Yanzhou and Yuzhou have only known the news that there is only one single seedling left in Tianhe County in Liang County......
In this era of slow news transmission, even the state pastor didn't get the news, how could two guys who claimed to be from Wuling County get the news so early?
"We are the chivalrous men of Tianyimen, a few days ago, the branch of Tianhe County sent a letter of help, and sent the news of the request for help to our other branches, and the two of us understood the situation, and planned to go to Tianhe County to support.
"Who would have thought that he would be trapped here, alas." Li Yuanzhong sighed.
Pei Mengqing looked at Xiao Ri and the Orange Bureau, and got a positive reply from Xiao Ri Chuanyin:
"There is indeed an organization called Tianyimen, and it has a good reputation in the rivers and lakes, almost all of those who can enter Tianyimen are knights with a very good reputation and status in the rivers and lakes, I heard that there is a communication formation between different branches, which can be used to share news and send distress messages."
Affirmed by the two big oranges, Pei Mengqing breathed a sigh of relief.
He hurriedly returned the salute:
"It turned out to be the two heroes of Tianyimen, and in Xia Nai, they are the swordsmanship teachers of Yanzhou University in Tianhe County, and this token can prove my identity."
Take out the token that Elder Liu gave him—he gave it to Pei Mengqing since the last incident, and let him act cheaply.
These two knights were both monks in the late stage of the Xuanqi level, and when they took the token in their hands, they immediately felt the aura and logo of the elders on the token, which were exclusive to Yanzhou University, an empire-level university.
The token was returned, and the tone of the two was more polite.
"It turned out that it was Teacher Pei in front of him, and he was rude."
Although the two of them couldn't see Pei Mengqing's strength—mainly because of the difference in power systems—but since the backer of the family was a Qixing-level Grand Karcist and a teacher at Yanzhou University, these two points alone were enough for them to respect.
The two also took out the name tags that could prove that they were people from Tianyimen for Pei Mengqing to see, and then the two sides relaxed their vigilance and began to officially exchange information.
"The situation in Tianhe County is not very good now, Fangmei District was destroyed by the self-explosion of the Qi-star monster, all the people are scattered in the other four districts, there is a shortage of manpower at present, if the two of you are willing to go and provide assistance, it is really grateful.
"It's just that I'm currently trapped here, and I don't have a plan to get out, so I have to think about it in the long run."
Li Yuanzhong frowned slightly:
"So, what the guy who claims to be the mayor of the town is telling is true?"
"Hmm." Pei Mengqing's eyes swept the surroundings, changed to the way of aura bubble transmission, and told the two of them about the touch of shadows and the current situation, telling them not to act rashly, nor to show abnormalities and threats, and to find a way to break the situation with him is the best policy.
Hearing the power of the shadow touch, the two of them turned solemn, and when they heard that the shadow touch was part of the flesh and blood of the evil god outside the sky, they were even more solemn.
Anyway, the common sense is that once it comes to the evil gods outside the sky, there is nothing simple.
"If what I expected is right, the two are late-stage warlocks of the Xuanqi level?" Pei Mengqing continued to ask.
"Exactly, I take the liberty to ask, forgive me for being clumsy, I can't see Pei Shaoxia's cultivation." Wang Hongren said.
"Because I'm not a warlock, but I have taken a different path, and in terms of strength, I can barely fight with the early stage of the Qixing Star."
Pei Mengqing simply reported his true strength.
In this case, of course, whoever has the biggest fist has the right to speak and command, and it is better to hold this aspect in his hands.
At this time, Li Yuanzhong and Wang Hongren were really shocked.
After all, Pei Mengqing looks like he is only in his early twenties, and he actually has a combat power comparable to that of the Qixing Star.
You must know that although the two of them look young, they are already thirty-five or sixteen years old, and this is because they are extremely talented, so they can cultivate to the late stage of the Xuanqi level at this age.
This is already a talent in a warlock, after all, not everyone is like the Sima family, who can use the power of faith to quickly turn people into a conceptual level so outrageous.
"It's so powerful, it's the two of us who don't know Mount Tai with eyes, look at Pei Shaoxia's hanging sword around his waist, could it be a sword cultivator?" After Wang Hongren was shocked, he finally calmed down and asked again.
"Exactly." Pei Mengqing nodded, "The two of you used knives and guns?" ”
Generally speaking, there are also two kinds of sword cultivation, one is a normal swordsman, usually a sword hanging waist sword.
There is also a type of Taoist swordsman, and the sword of the Taoist leader is not hung on the waist, but on the back.
Therefore, when you see a swordsman, you want to know if he is an ordinary swordsman or a Taoist, just look at the location of the sword.
"Exactly." Li Yuanzhong nodded.
In fact, the two of them had some other ideas, and they were a little afraid that Pei Mengqing would look down on them.
After all, there is still such a rumor on the rivers and lakes, and it is okay to say that it is a chain of discrimination: 100 days of knife training, 1000 days of gun training, and 10,000 days of sword training.
It's about how easy it is to get started.
And sword cultivation is usually the strongest of the warlocks who use weapons.
Although one of them is known as "Knife Town Hebei" and the other is known as "Gun Tyrant", they have not seen Pei Mengqing's swordsmanship, so it is difficult to speculate how strong Pei Mengqing is.
However, as the so-called joy of seeing the hunter, the two have already decided that when this is over, they must have two tricks with Pei Mengqing and exchange their martial arts experience.
Pei Mengqing didn't know what they were thinking, but solemnly reminded:
"Be careful at night and don't go out casually, the humanoid shadow monster is real, and even I am not sure that I will be able to escape from their siege.
"What's more, we can't startle the snake and alarm the touch of shadows, when we came last night, I'm afraid that after discovering me and the two orange cats, it has already developed a certain vigilance and vigilance, we have to paralyze it and find a way to defeat the enemy with one blow.
"Originally, I was not sure about one person and two orange cats, but now that I have the help of the two heroes, I think as long as I make a good plan, the odds of winning can be improved."
Li Yuanzhong and Wang Hongren heard the meaning of his words, and they both nodded and bowed their hands:
"We are willing to follow Pei Shaoxia's instructions."
"The two heroes are polite, Brother Li and Brother Wang are my predecessors, I'm just putting forward opinions, if the two heroes have better ideas, just say it."
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Pei Mengqing was also polite as a matter of course.
But Li Yuanzhong and Wang Hongren are not new to the rivers and lakes, so they will definitely not say anything else, but they just acquiesce to Pei Mengqing's leading identity.
After the orientation party, Pei Mengqing and the two big oranges and the two heroes scattered to the town, asking for information everywhere to see if there was any more useful or wrong news.
It wasn't until it was getting late and the clouds were setting in the west, and every household began to close their doors and windows, that Pei Mengqing and the two big oranges returned to their houses, and Li Yuanzhong and Wang Hongren also came here to discuss with them what they saw and heard during the day.
"There is a dry well in the east of the village, and I heard that when someone passed by the dry well, he heard the cry of a child, but when he looked down, he saw nothing." Wang Hongren first said a strange thing he heard.
Li Yuanzhong also gained:
"In the west of the village, there is a cemetery in the village and town, where the mutilated bodies of those who died in the past are all buried after cremation.
"I went to see it once, and it's gloomy, I'm afraid it's not a good place."
Of course, it's strange if a place like a cemetery isn't gloomy.
Xiao Ri acted alone, and when he arrived in the north of the village, he also talked about its gains:
"There's a forest on the north side, but once you enter, no matter how you go, you'll turn out, and there's no way to go deeper, and if there's no other place to hide, I'm afraid that the ghost thing is hiding there."
Pei Mengqing and the orange bureau didn't find anything in the south, so they had to say:
"There is nothing but farmland in the south, and it is the spring ploughing season, so we casually took a turn and asked the orange bureau to sweep it with the light of purification, and we didn't find any problems."
In summary, it is possible that the forest is the hidden place of the Shadow Touch itself, and the purpose is already eerie, so it is still unknown how it is.
But the dry well on the east side is the most problematic.
"I didn't dare to act alone, this place gave me a very uncomfortable feeling." Wang Hongren said.
Pei Mengqing nodded:
"What Brother Wang said is very unusual, it is better to go together or in batches, in short, there must be at least one orange cat together."
"That's it, I'll go with the Orange Bureau and Brother Wang, and Brother Li and Xiao Ri stay here, how about it?"
"Well, it's okay, then we'll stay here." Li Yuanzhong doesn't have any opinions, although they are chivalrous, but they are not the kind of reckless men who don't understand anything, or elementary school students who have to go to the toilet with their friends.
The matter was decided, and no one had procrastination, so the two of them went directly to the east of the village and rushed to the dry well.
The area of the village and town is not big or small, otherwise it would not be called "village and town", and the two walked for less than a quarter of an hour, and soon came to the dry well on the edge of the village and town.
There was no farmland here, so no one usually came, and after hearing the strange news of the child's cry, the people of Nightmare Town didn't get much closer to this side.
If there's really something bad in there, and you drag them in, it's really unjust.
After Pei Mengqing, Wang Hongren, and the Orange Bureau arrived, the two of them and a cat gathered around the dry well, looked at it for a while, and didn't see anything on the surface.
So the orange bureau used the purifying gold light into the well, and the result was a change.
A blue light suddenly burst out from the well, enveloping Pei Mengqing and them, they couldn't react, and they had disappeared in place after a second.
When he opened his eyes again, Pei Mengqing subconsciously pulled out the Heavenly Frost Sword and scanned the surroundings.
Wang Hongren was not separated from him, and was in the same place with him as the Orange Bureau.
Wang Hongren pulled out the red tassel gun on his back, he was also very vigilant, and his spiritual sense swept around.
"Where is this?" Pei Mengqing asked.
It's like a blue-glowing lost place, with no direction around it, no references.
"I don't know."
The orange bureau continued to shine with golden light, and its eyes seemed to be better, looking ahead:
"There's a guy there, like a child!"
