Chapter 146: Standing up to the sky

But fortunately, Bai Yang had already restrained himself, which made the inexplicable uneasiness in the man's heart dissipate a lot, and he opened the cage, and his attitude was a lot more polite: "You know each other very well, and you are also a lot more polite than other people outside the world, come out, catch you back, just to do some chores." ”

Out of the cage, Bai Yang stepped on the sound of shackles, followed the man into the village, along the way there were many villagers wearing animal sweaters working hard, there were also many lively and lovely children frolicking all over the ground, from time to time there were a few pairs of eyes looking at him with curiosity, but it was a peaceful scene.

Bai Yang felt strange in his heart, but his face did not move a little, and slowly followed the person in front of him.

"Nian is not bad in this little man, and I will not hand over the menial work to you today, so you can pile up some firewood here, and then divide some and send it to the kitchen, and add a few fires, so that you can't delay the time for lunch. ”

Led Bai Yang to a pile of firewood, looking at the mountains of neat and chopped firewood, the man grinned and said, "If you don't do it well, you won't have anything to eat today." ”

After the man left, Bai Yang sat in front of the firewood stack in a daze, and the pair of iron chains in his hands were engraved with a lot of runes, and if he wanted to tear them apart, he needed some movement. And the pair of shackles are even more subtle, and Bai Yang doesn't want to startle the snake for the time being.

"When I was in the Xuanjian Sect back then, I also did these menial jobs, and there is nothing bad about doing them now. Shaking the pair of chains in his hands, Bai Yang muttered and pulled out a stack of firewood, held it on his arm, and then walked in the direction pointed out by the man.

The structure of this small village is a bit strange, it may seem a little rudimentary from the outside, but the interior is extraordinarily spacious, although there are not many people, and every villager is exceptionally strong.

Even their skin is slightly pale, as if they haven't been exposed to the sun for a long time, and they look very sickly.

Catching a glimpse of Bai Yang walking step by step towards the kitchen with dry firewood in his hand, his clothes and shackles symbolizing people outside the sky attracted a lot of attention.

"There was something strange in the eyes of these people. ”

Bai Yang frowned.

The Juggernaut said lightly: "These people are very curious about you, which is not a good thing. The lives who have been locked up in one place all the year round and have not seen the light of day, there will be a great desire to see the truth in their hearts, and when time buries their curiosity, it may bring numbness, but it is more likely to be an almost crazy counterattack. ”

"Those wolf riders will arrest you, probably also to find out the world outside the Martial God Tower, be careful, in their eyes, but they treat you as a good meal, and they may eat you alive at any time." ”

The master's words made Bai Yang secretly wake up in his heart, after all, the Martial God Tower is a completely strange world, even if there is no one in this small village who can threaten him for the time being, but who can guarantee that there is no more powerful existence in this world?

After gathering his mind for a while, Bai Yang walked quickly to the kitchen.

The kitchen in this small village is actually a separate room, with bluestones piled up on the perimeter, and some simple runes carved into the seal to prevent wild beasts from entering, but there is not much danger to humans.

The house inside smelled good, like meat.

Bai Yang stepped into the bluestone fence and slammed his shoulder against the kitchen door.

The kitchen door had been in the kitchen for a few years, and he had slammed it so easily, and a lot of dust had popped out of the cracks in the door, and it made a squeaking sound.

A lukewarm voice sounded from inside the door: "Put it at the door." ”

When Bai Yang heard this, he didn't communicate with the people inside the door, he piled up the firewood at the door at will, turned around and left.

But at this moment, the person inside the door suddenly shouted, "Stand still." ”

Bai Yang stopped when he heard the sound, his face expressionless.

The man inside the door said, "Come in, I have something for you to do." ”

Before the words fell, the old wooden door opened from the inside out, a cloud of dust rose from it, and the smell of meat became more intense into Bai Yang's nose.

Bai Yang thought about it, stepped in, and his vision suddenly darkened.

He looked around at the furnishings, and found that in addition to a few large stoves, there were cleaned meat and vegetables, which were full of dishes, and next to it was a large black pot, in which the broth was boiling, and I don't know what meat was cooking.

After Bai Yang glanced twice, his gaze turned to the middle-aged man who was sitting in front of the big black cauldron, fiddling with the strange decoction with his hand.

The man's back was a little rickety, his back was very broad, and from the height at which he was sitting, he knew that he was an extremely tall man, but the slightly curved arc made him look a little humble and short.

He put down the decoction in his hand, didn't say a word, picked up a few large pieces of meat on the desk, picked it with his fingers, and threw it on the case at Bai Yang's hand, and said coldly: "Clean up these meats, if you don't dispose of them before Xinghui disperses for the first time, I will stew you." ”

After that, he no longer paid attention to Bai Yang and turned his back to him, as if he didn't care at all whether this so-called person from outside the sky would be unfavorable to him.

Bai Yang looked at him and cared very much, so he sensed it with his divine thoughts, and found that this person actually did not cultivate, or rather, he couldn't feel his existence in his divine thoughts.

It's a wonderful feeling, as if you see a person in front of you with your eyes, but when the mind sweeps over, the feedback is that there is no one there.

There is no scorching light when the true qi burns, and there is no dim starlight, and there is only darkness in his divine thought net, like an abyss-like dead silence, just like that middle-aged man, quiet and unfathomable.

"Master, what's the situation with this person?" Bai Yang knew that his divine thought strength was already very good, even if he was a Tianyuan Realm powerhouse, it was not easy to hide himself in his divine thought net, not to mention, wanting to be so silent, as if there was no existence in the darkness, it was from the other side that this middle-aged man was not ordinary.

"Juggernaut?"

Bai Yang found that the Juggernaut who had always asked questions did not answer his question this time, and when he sensed it, he found that the Juggernaut had fallen into an extremely deep sleep, deeper than the previous exhausting slumber.

It's like -- trying to hide from something.

This discovery made Bai Yang feel slightly shocked, but he was not afraid, only curious.

So he walked to the desk at hand, raised the knife, and began to handle the large pieces of raw meat with great skill, the sound of tuk tuk tuk resounded on the board, the middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, raised his head, and his face showed an outline under the faint light that seeped in from the door and window.

It was an extremely square face, without the righteousness of the mysteries, but it just gave people a very serious feeling.

The eyebrows are the eyebrows, the eyes are the eyes, the nose is the nose, the face is expressionless, square, like a sculpture.

But with his eyebrow raising movement, this well-balanced face showed a funny expression. It's like a stiff wood carving, moving its eyebrows very jerky, and the other facial features are still quiet, but this raising of eyebrows destroys the whole.

He turned his face and looked at Bai Yang, there was no superfluous light in his eyes, but he nodded unprecedentedly, and his voice still didn't have any emotion: "Handle that meat, and then add it to the broth in my pot." ”

What he said was just that people who were familiar with cooking skills would probably be confused, but when Bai Yang was in the Xuanjian Sect, he did these chores, and he was also regarded as a better handyman in the back kitchen.

According to the middle-aged man's words, Bai Yang continued the processed raw meat into the broth, and then flipped through the bottles and cans on the case, found a special spice, and sprinkled it into the broth with his fingers.

Seeing this action, the middle-aged man first frowned, then became angry, and finally when he smelled the fragrance that was better than before, his eyebrows fell back, and his expression returned to calm, but his eyes changed.

"How do you know that the powder made by adding Qixian grass, jade bone powder, and Baiwei will have a special change when sprinkled into the broth?"

The middle-aged man didn't seem to have spoken for a long time, his voice was extremely jerky, and there were no ups and downs in his emotions, this question was not like a conversation, but more like a self-talk he held out of his throat.

After hearing this, Bai Yang replied calmly: "I also made broth at a friend's place before, and I tried this method, and the taste is indeed better than before." The predecessors probably thought that the powder made of these three flavors could only be used in a fixed place, but as long as there was a slight change, these seemingly inconspicuous flavors would show something special. ”

Saying that, Bai Yang added: "Just like walking on the same road, you always take one road, and you may not be able to see the end, but if you change slightly, it may be a little different." ”

"At a young age, he has a lot of courage, and his insight is amazing. The middle-aged man said: "But as a person outside the world, you have seen all kinds of avenues in the world, and I am trapped in this side, and there is only one way to go." Heaven has never given me a choice, not that I am stubborn and inflexible. ”

He raised his head, his eyes were calm, and his voice suddenly turned sharp: "So, you are not qualified to tell me this!"

"If the seniors think so, the younger generations can't do anything. Bai Yang clapped his hands, the iron chain in his hand rattled a few times, and then said: "If the seniors are fine, then the juniors will leave first." ”

The middle-aged man was silent for a moment, glanced at Bai Yang, and then said: "Stay, it's almost time to eat, this strange broth is no longer my wish, but your craft, you are qualified to eat with the villagers." ”

After speaking, the middle-aged man slowly stood up, just as Bai Yang expected, he was really tall, and getting up so slowly gave people a feeling of standing up to the sky!
