"Lao Cangtou, you're singing Nine Links City?"
Zhu Xingxing laughed and asked: What kind of scene is this?
"The ninth city is about to be destroyed, haha."
Lao Cangtou sat inside the building smiling, he opened the lid of an enamel jar and took a sip: "What are your family of three doing?"
"Come and change the battery, then go to the crook, fish up some shrimp and go home to sleep. I'll cook some prawns tomorrow morning."
Zhu Xingxing nodded towards Lao Cangtou and brought the two girls into the courtyard.
Crack.
Lao Cangtou suddenly locked the door, the smile on his face disappeared, and he did not hum any further, and coldly looked at the three of their backs, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Just then, Zhu Xingxing suddenly turned and looked at him, his mouth exposing a simple and honest smile, which made him feel uneasy.
Zhu Xingxing had always been observing his surroundings. The moment he saw Lao Cangtou, he immediately noticed that the old man's condition was different from usual.
Usually, Lao Cangtou would always be lying on the bed. Today, he was sitting, and that sitting posture could be used to attack at any time.
When Lao Cangtou was drinking the tea in the enamel jar, his fingers were grabbing tightly onto the jar. It was a subconscious action of exerting force, but when a person's body was in a very nervous state, they would subconsciously do so!
When Zhu Xingxing was standing at the door, his body had approached the window of the gatehouse and used his hand to do many small movements on the window sill. However, Lao Cangtou was unable to see anything because that was his blind spot.
"There's a camera here." Gong Hanqiu lowered her head and said.
"Not just here. Actually, there are many places in the village, but I'm afraid not many people in the village know about them. Fortunately, there is nothing to the west of the village! " Zhu Xingxing laughed: "So that's why I never believe that there are so many selfless people in this world. Some may seem selfless, but in reality, they might not necessarily want to do anything. Tell me, why did Lao Cangtou lock the door? "
"Wei Yinyang has a very good relationship with people in the village, and has already threatened the position of the Huang Lao Mo. He is old, and might not be able to finish off any time, his sons' prestige is far inferior to his, and their ways of handling the world are even more so."
Zhu Xingxing sent a sound transmission to him, "If it was you, then what do you want to do after such a situation has occurred? It must be because of crippling Wei Yinyang that he can't become a threat to your descendants after your death! Zhang Hu and Wei Yinyang were very intimate, and he even said some things that he shouldn't have. He also said a lot of things to Wei Yinyang just now, which made Huang Lao Mo suspicious. In a little while, he will definitely ask about the conversation! "
"Fortunately, the surveillance didn't have the ability to gather the sound, otherwise the conversation tonight wouldn't be easy to explain."
Zhu Xingxing frowned his eyebrows slightly: "That old fellow Wei Yinyang has caused us some trouble unknowingly. He is a strange person, he should be able to predict something, and logically speaking, he should be happy to let us succeed. Why did he create obstacles for us?"
"Perhaps, he figured that if we were to succeed, it would be very disadvantageous for him, so he does not wish for us to succeed."
Alain said, "Is that possible?"
"Another possibility is that he did it on purpose." Gong Hanqiu suddenly asked: "Why would he be happy to see that happen? What did the two of you talk about earlier? "
"The topic is too deep, I can't explain it very clearly." Zhu Xingxing yawned: "Let's take this opportunity to act, plans are always in the sky, this kind of thing cannot be done with 100% certainty."
The courtyard of the village chief's house was extremely large. The floor was paved with limestone, and after all these years of training, the stone was now completely bare. It was covered in a layer of paste, making it seem as if it was already moist with jade.
North and south of the courtyard were a bunch of houses. There were no lights in the house, only the easternmost house, which was close to the big door, was lit up. In the middle of the yard stood a few poles, and a few torches were inserted into them, illuminating the entire courtyard.
There were people patrolling in the courtyard. Their dark eyes were like hungry wolves in the dark, occasionally flashing with a cold light.
Zhu Xingxing and the other two went to the house that was close to the big gate building on the east side. The village head Huang Lao Mo was there, and he would sit there everyday, waiting for the villagers to find him.
From this point of view, the Huang Lao Mo had done very well, excessively well!
Zhu Xingxing felt that this was something that only Saints and idiots, or people with ulterior motives, could achieve.
Huang Lao Mo was not a fool, and from the looks of it, he was not a saint either. He was someone with a huge plan, what exactly was his goal?
Perhaps the answer would soon be revealed.
Walking to the extremely familiar door, Zhu Xingxing pulled open the dilapidated wooden door, and saw Huang Lao Mo.
Under the dim yellow light, Huang Lao Mo sat on the brick bed. Both of his hands were washing a bunch of yellow plastic cards on the greasy brick bed table.
When Zhu Xingxing was on Earth, he had seen some very old people play it, but he never thought that there would be such a game in this world.
"Village Chief, where's the Heaven Gate formation?" Zhu Xingxing snickered.
"Yes, what are you doing here so late?" The Huang Lao Mo smiled, but he could not tell what was wrong with his expression.
"The battery is out of battery. I'll go and fish for the prawns in a while, so I can come and change it. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome tomorrow."
Zhu Xingxing felt the aura from Huang Lao Mo's body. It seemed like he was an ordinary person, but he would never believe that such a powerful old man was actually an ordinary person.
There was an ordinary possibility, but the possibility was too low.
"Oh, then change it." Huang Lao Mo extended his wrinkled, bark-like hand. His hand was like a book, filled with stories.
Zhu Xingxing placed all three batteries in Huang Lao Mo's hands and was about to take them back, but then Huang Lao Mo grabbed it and looked at him coldly: "You're not Zhang Hu, who are you?"
"Village Chief, what happened to you?" Zhu Xingxing looked at him in shock. "If I am not Zhang Hu, then who am I?"
The village chief grabbed Zhu Xingxing's wrist and punched over.
Zhu Xingxing clenched the Village Chief's fist, "Village Chief, I do have dealings with Wei Yinyang, do you need to do this? No one is an idiot, don't take bullying people as fun. "
The village chief smiled as he retracted his hand and threw the three batteries into a basket. He took out the three batteries from the other basket and handed it to him. "I'm just joking. I want to see if your injuries have healed."
"I'm sorry, I really haven't recovered yet. Your injuries are even more severe now that I've caused you so much trouble." Zhu Xingxing took the three batches of batteries, and suddenly asked: "Village Chief, when will we be going down to the ocean?"
"Why are you suddenly asking this?" The village chief had an ugly expression. He frowned, "Could it be that you want to fish for treasures in the sea?"
"I want to get some whale oil. My mom's eyes can't stand electric lights. The whale oil lights aren't dazzling."
Zhu Xingxing glanced at Gong Hanqiu, who reached out to wipe his reddened eyes and sighed: "I didn't have such good fortune, how good was the electric light, it wouldn't have been extinguished even if there was wind, the entire house is bright, but my eyes can't enjoy such good fortune!"
Gong Hanqiu's voice was simulated right, it was divine and looked exactly the same as Zhang Hu's mother.
"We might have to spend some time at night this year. Recently, the sea isn't peaceful. Under normal circumstances, we should be going into the sea next month."
Huang Lao Mo sighed lightly. "The next time when we go out, we will bring back all the medicines and doctors outside. You guys can overcome the difficulties for a while!"
"No problem, I was just casually asking." Zhu Xingxing laughed: "Good village head, you should rest early, we will leave first."
"Yea, it's safer to fish prawns tonight. Now that the things in the water are alive, we should be careful of those ghosts!"
Huang Lao Mo waved and sent them off.
Bang.
Zhu Xingxing suddenly attacked, his fists struck at Huang Lao Mo like a violent storm. Huang Lao Mo was very surprised, he suffered a huge loss in an instant, and his body floated backwards until he reached a corner.
He moved, and Zhu Xingxing moved too. Like a shadow following his body, his fist smashed onto Huang Lao Mo's temple.
Bang.
An accident happened!
Huang Lao Mo's temple was not only not weak, it was also abnormally sturdy. When his fist smashed on it, it made a sound as if it collided against metal, causing his fist to fly backwards, but it was completely fine.
"Just who are you?"
Huang Lao Mo sprung up, and pounced towards Zhu Xingxing like an eagle.
Plop, plop, plop.
There was an additional row of bloody holes on Huang Lao Mo's body. Gong Hanqiu made her move, his ten fingers spread wide as the tip of his fingers shot out a faint light, it was like a metal eagle's claw!
Bang.
Huang Lao Mo's chest was punched and he fainted.
Zhu Xingxing quickly removed all the joints on his limbs and at the same time, started to read his memories.
Gong Hanqiu and Alan Duowan closed the door to their room to keep watch for Zhu Xingxing.
"Dad, what's going on?" The rude voice of Huang Lao Mo's eldest son, Huang Dalong sounded outside the door.
"Do you have donkey hair in your ears?" Zhu Xingxing simulated the voice of the Huang Lao Mo and scolded: "If you don't have anything to say, scram."
He had already read the memories of the Huang Lao Mo, and the information only contained bits and pieces of the father and son duo.
"Okay, then I'll go back." Huang Dalong did not dare to refute. Afraid that his shoes would hit the floor, he quickly dragged his shoes back to the opposite room.
Zhu Xingxing found out the secret on the body of the Huang Lao Mo. The reason he came here for the past few decades was actually for something in the ocean.
In the sea below the cliff, there was an extremely deep sea trench. In the sea trench grew a very rare plant called Sea Serene Orchid.
Hai Youlan was an extremely precious medicinal ingredient. Furthermore, she was a legendary medicine that was needed to concoct pills!
However, there was a very powerful and ferocious dragon guarding the side of Hai You Lan, which was not easy to obtain!
If he wanted to get his hands on the Serene Sea Orchid, he had to think of a way to lure the dragon away. The villagers in Haizi Bay Village were the bait to lure the dragon away!
Zhu Xingxing's judgement was not wrong, Huang Lao Mo was not a saint, but a scheming liar, a bloodless demon.
