Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Bai Zhi reached out and touched his chin, with a thoughtful look on his face.
He had been to the Mountain and Sea Realm before. Although the experience last time was very different from this experience, there were some things in common.
… For example, a small town also serves as a gathering place.
However, the town like the old dean's side is full of weird monsters. It is a veritable monster town, and the town is directly built on the monster body of the old dean. .
And in a small town like the one they are in now, all the people gathered in it are human beings, including some cultivators... Cultivators
Suddenly thinking of something, Bai Zhi couldn't help but frowned.
The path of cultivation has been completely cut off, he knows this, and according to the information he got from Jiang Chanyi, cultivation can only reach the golden elixir stage at most. If he continues to go up, his body and consciousness will There will be the possibility of alienation.
Judging from the few people who flew with the sword before... How many practitioners of the Golden Core stage or above exist in this small town
Continuing to think about it the other way around, if the old dean’s monster town was built by the old dean himself, then could the current completely closed cultivation town be established by some weird fairy
If this is the case, then the experience of the mountainside man Li can also be explained. After all, even if the other party becomes a strange immortal, he is still an immortal.
—The target of Wei Xian and his ilk is at least the level of the Lord of Weird Tales.
In this case, the weird fairy who founded this town is probably above their heads now
After speculating on this possibility, Bai Zhi couldn't help but feel a slight toothache for a moment.
Although before setting off, he had anticipated that he might have to deal with those strange fairies during his trip to the mountains and seas, he never expected that he would encounter them so early.
Just when Bai Zhi was thinking about his next plan with a toothache in his heart, the sound of a cart was heard outside the cell.
After a while, the door was opened, and a figure in civilian clothes pushed a cart that looked like a dining cart in.
"What's this?"
After looking at the food on the trolley, Phalaenopsis asked the person in front of him strangely.
"Food, don't you want to eat?"
Glancing at her, the man had a strange look on his face.
"Because the crimes you committed are so heinous, and coupled with your sensitive status as outsiders, this case will not be closed as quickly as you think. So far, our Criminal Investigation Department is working with the Li family We will actively communicate over there, and you will have to stay in jail for at least seven or eight hours before the results come out."
"...So you thoughtfully prepared food for us?"
"Otherwise? In Tianqiu Valley, even practitioners must take in food every day, otherwise they may be possessed by evil spirits."
Pushing the trolley in front of them, the man responsible for delivering food looked matter-of-fact.
"Although I don't know where you are from, in Tianqiu Valley, you'd better follow the rules here, otherwise if something goes wrong, no one can save you."
"Tianqiu Valley..."
After looking at each other and adjusting their robes, Li from the mountainside stood up from the bed first, and then walked forward with a warm smile on his face.
- The opponent looks like an ordinary person at first glance. As a famous Buddhist monk, relying on his own affinity, he can easily capture the opponent.
"Amitabha, this benefactor, this young monk is here for the first time. Could you please introduce me to the situation here..."
"Go, go, go, dead bald donkey in the pure land of mortals, stay away from me."
Before mountainside man Li could finish his words, and before he even reached the man's side, the other man waved his hand at him with a look of disgust on his face.
"The most annoying thing is you bald donkeys. If there weren't other people among them, you would have been thrown to the mining area to mine."
Mountainside man Li: "..."
Volume 2 The Miracle of Improbable Probability: Chapter 1596 Chapter 670 "The Pure Land of the Red Dust" and the Businessman (7k)
The jade inlaid on the wall near the ceiling emitted a long and clean light. Looking at the person who was chatting happily with the man who delivered the meal, Li You, the man on the mountainside, was silent for a long time.
… This was the first time he had been humiliated like this.
"Hey wake up, stop looking."
I don't know when I came to the mountainside man Li. After reaching out and shaking his hand in front of his eyes, Phalaenopsis slowly picked up the food in the small cart.
"Obviously, people here have a very obvious prejudice against monks. If you look at it again, you may make them disgusted."
"I just can't figure it out."
Withdrawing his gaze, Li Shanbian, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, sighed dejectedly.
"Obviously in this team, I have the highest affinity. How could it be..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Li, a man on the mountainside, raised his head and glanced in the direction of Phalaenopsis with some suspicion.
—Just now, he seemed to hear a sneer.
After glancing at the cold-faced Huan Yan and Yuzi huddled in the corner, he accurately focused on one of his former bosses.
"What's wrong?"
Keenly noticing his gaze, Hu Dilan gave him a strange look while holding a lunch box that seemed to be made of bamboo.
"… nothing."
Li, the man on the mountainside, turned his head silently.
Even though his former boss was weak in character, this was just a superficial disguise. The other party once had a heroic record of drinking down eighteen people at a drinking table.
Not only that, after getting all of them drunk, the other party frantically took a video recorder and recorded the dark history of each of them.
Fortunately, he became the inheritor and escaped from the other party's clutches, otherwise he would have to be like that guy in August Desolation and be under the other party's hands all day long 007...
Among all the people he should not mess with, his former boss Phalaenopsis ranked first.
… What’s more, the other party also has its own dark history.
Just laugh, the truth will not change with the ridicule of others...
"Are you really going to eat what they bring?"
Looking at the lunch box brought back by Phalaenopsis, Huanyan couldn't help but frown slightly.
"It's not to eat, but to collect intelligence. You can tell a lot just from the eating habits of the people here..."
Looking at the girl next to him with some curiosity, Phalaenopsis smoothly handed the lunch box in his hand to Yuzi, who was huddled in the corner with her feet in her arms while explaining in her mouth.
"sorry to bother you."
"..."
Pursing her lips, Yuzu took the lunch box.
As the strongest pharmacist among the Night Watch, this kind of thing is considered her job.
Without any intention of hesitating too much, she reached out and opened the lunch box.
In the lunch box, several spiny algae balls shaped like chestnuts were lying there quietly. Because of her action of opening the lunch box, the algae balls rolled back and forth in the lunch box a few times.
Looking at the spiny algae balls in the lunch box, Yuzi's face couldn't help but become serious.
After glancing in Bai Zhi's direction, she turned slightly to avoid the sight of the food delivery person. She took a special gold needle from her collar and carefully inserted it into the spinosa ball.
After a moment, when she took the golden needle back, the end where the needle was inserted had completely disappeared, and there were densely packed small bite marks on the fracture.
"..."
Yuzu seemed to take a breath of cold air and threw the remaining half of the golden needle into the lunch box. Yuzu quickly closed the lunch box again.
"How about it?"
Keenly noticing the changes in her face before and after, Phalaenopsis approached Yuzu and asked in a low voice.
Holding the lunch box tightly in his hand without handing it back, Yuzi turned to look at Phalaenopsis. Yuzu shook her head slightly.
"... Just wait a moment."
After understanding the meaning expressed in the other person's eyes, he stopped moving towards the other person, and Phalaenopsis nodded.
After that, nearly ten minutes passed.
Until Bai Zhi's conversation ended, Yuzu didn't move at all, she just leaned quietly in the corner with the lunch box in her hand.
"what happened?"
After watching and making sure that the food delivery person was gone, Bai Zhi turned to look towards them and asked in a deep voice.
“… There’s something wrong with the food.”
Glancing at Yuzi, who was leaning against the corner with her eyes closed and still not moving or speaking, a trace of worry flashed vaguely in Phalaenopsis' eyes.
"We'd better stay out of that truck, and we'd better stay away from her until she gets the final word."
"Then let me first tell you the results of my previous conversation."
Bai Zhi also glanced at the corner, nodded, and casually moved the dining cart far away through the ghost realm.
"Of course, before that, if you have anything you want to ask, feel free to ask."
Although the use of psychic energy is restricted in this special cell, the use of the ghost realm does not consume any psychic energy.
"What is the "pure land of mortals"? "
Frowning slightly, Li from the mountainside looked towards Bai Zhi.
"Also, why do they have such a bad feeling towards me?"
"Not to you, but to all the monks."
Bai Zhi hugged his chest with his hands and leaned back against the wall.
"As for the so-called "Pure Land of Red Dust", it is another gathering place similar to the place we are in now. Just like the people in this gathering place are cultivating, the people in that distant place are all cultivating. Dharma. It is precisely because of this that they regard you as someone from the "pure land of mortals". "
"… so?"
"Let's put it this way, about a few decades ago, the "Pure Land of Red Dust" sent a team of monks to come over for communication. It seems that there was something wrong with the monks sent over, which caused the Tianqiu Valley to The damage was severe, that's why they have such a bad feeling towards you. "
Looking at Li on the mountainside over there, Bai Zhi shrugged slightly.
"Why, when I was interrogating you before, didn't you feel that something was wrong?"
In fact, if it weren't for his now over 100 charm points and the bonus of his own core talents, when those people first saw a monk among them, they would probably have struck first without saying a word. .
"I thought it was because I destroyed the medicine field that I was like that... OK."
Li Shi, the mountainside man, sighed helplessly.
"So, what exactly is the situation here?"
"Filth is rampant in the wilderness, and only one gathering place after another is the pure land in this world."
After thinking for a while, Bai Zhi gave what he thought was an appropriate answer.
"Actually, that person doesn't know much. After all, he is just an ordinary person who cannot practice. Many things come from his hearsay."
"Gathering place? So those people are..."
As if he suddenly thought of something, Phalaenopsis's face looked a little strange.
"That's right, they regard us as people from the gathering place of "another world". "
Reaching out and pressing his forehead, Bai Zhi slightly looked helpless.
"For the people living here, they have no concept of other worlds at all. The caravan members who visit other gathering places every few decades are already the ones they know from other worlds. How is the person... and how is the situation?"
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Bai Zhi turned to look at Yuzi.
Because he was always paying attention to the situation on her side, he was the first to notice when the other party opened his eyes.
“…human implant system.”
Lifting his head, Yuzi's face looked a little solemn.
"The people who live here coexist with plants."
"What do you mean..."
After finishing his sentence, Bai Zhi couldn't help but froze when he looked at the emerald green buds growing silently in the palm of Yuzu's stretched out hand.
"After you eat the food that is delivered to you, there will be an extra plant in your body that coexists with you... and that's what it is now."
Looking at the bud growing in the palm of his hand, Yuzi put down the empty lunch box in his hand and reached out to press his forehead with some distress.
"Unfortunately, so far, I have not been able to find a specific use for these plants that coexist with the human body."
"you… "
