Tong Nuonuo was stunned: "What? Master Li is not dead?"
Han Yuanzhi nodded: "That's right. He is a barbarian, so naturally he has some unusual methods. When the Zhong family followed him and tried to ambush them, this man escaped. Afterwards, he seemed to have appeared in the civil war in Hanshan City and secretly retaliated against the Zhong family." Otherwise, the Zhong family would not have been wiped out so quickly. The Han family originally wanted to slowly close the net and lure out other people with ill intentions.
"Because he is a barbarian and is now wanted by Zhishitang, he is even more resentful towards the world. You must be careful of him when you are training outside." Han Yuanzhi said to Tong Nuonuo specifically: "Especially your Master Tong Xian, everyone in the team is dead, and now only you know what Master Li Xian looks like. You never know, he might kill you for this reason when you meet him." That Master Li Xian is a cultivator at the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm, and they may not be able to get away with it if they confront him.
Xi Yunting said solemnly, "We will be careful. Thank you, Chief Han, for your reminder."
Tong Nuonuo still felt very unbelievable at this moment, but since it was said by Han himself, he had to believe it. Following Xi Yunting and thanking him for his reminder, the three of them walked out of the Han family's house. As they walked along the path to the outside of the village, he was still saying, "It turns out that he is not dead. No wonder there has been no news about the black-eyed green cub."
Chen Xiao was walking not far in front of him. When he heard what he said, he turned around and took a look: "That's true. After all, it is said to be the cub of a ferocious beast. If it is really caught, there must be rumors in Hanshan City." Then he asked Xi Yunting: "Brother, where do you think he can hide at this time?"
Xi Yunting said in a low voice: "It's hard to say. Hanshan City was in chaos before, so it was easy for him to hide. We didn't catch him in time, and it was even more difficult after his disguise. What's more, so much time has passed, he may not still be in Hanshan City, it is more likely that he has gone to other places. He is wanted by Zhishitang, and the boat and the portal cannot be used. He can only be stranded in Gengsheng Small Heaven Realm. Maybe he has passed through this mountain range and headed to the mortal kingdom."
Chen Xiao's heart trembled. He asked Tong Nuonuo: "What kind of person is Master Li? Are there any obvious characteristics?"
Tong Nuonuo recalled: "He was very tall, probably one of the best among the barbarians. He had high brows, deep eye sockets, double eyelids, and blue eyes. His nose was very straight, his cheekbones were obvious, his edges and corners were sharp, and his mouth was full and thick. Although Brother Wu said that his ears were a bit pointy, I never saw him wearing a hat. I only remember that his hair was a bit curly."
Tong Nuonuo had a good memory and described the appearance in great detail. Chen Xiao immediately pictured a man with a high nose, deep eyes, blue eyes, curly hair, and an exotic look in his mind. He asked in surprise, "Are these foreigners very different in appearance from you and me? Is that why they are called barbarians?"
Tong Nuonuo was stunned for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Master Li's appearance is different from many people in Luochen Great Heaven Realm, but his appearance is not uncommon in other Heaven Realms. It is said that a person's appearance is affected by the environment of the Heaven Realm, so it is not as good as harmony. The reason why the barbarians are different from us is because we are not the same species at all."
Chen Xiao was a little confused by what he said, so Xi Yunting explained, "Different species means that even if men and women of two races are together, they cannot produce healthy offspring."
Chen Xiao suddenly realized that there was reproductive isolation between the two, which meant that they were indeed not the same species.
Chen Xiao had heard Tong Nuonuo and Han Zhushi talking before, and they always used the term "barbarian tribe". They were unconscious, but they looked down on the other party and used a condescending tone. This has formed a common discrimination against foreigners in the world, which made Chen Xiao, who came from another world, feel a little uncomfortable. Now that they know that the two sides are not of the same species, they have found the root cause.
Chen Xiao sighed softly, and Xi Yunting said, "Don't worry, Xiao, there will be no danger on this trip. I will do my best to protect you."
Chen Xiao looked up and saw Xi Yunting looking at him with warm eyes. The depression in Chen Xiao's heart suddenly disappeared. He smiled and said, "Well, thank you, big brother."
Tong Nuonuo on the side was not to be outdone, he said: "Chen Xiao, I will protect you too!" As he said that, he turned the mechanical box on his back to his chest and began to take things out, stuffing handfuls into Chen Xiao's hands, "Look, this is what I made during this period! It's a more powerful bomb than before. And..." He pulled out the weapon that Chen Xiao had used in the previous attack, "This one you named the Mechanical Hand Arrow, I also made some improvements, it has a longer range, and covers more densely without blind spots. Because the energy source has been changed, the lethality is also stronger than before."
Chen Xiao hurriedly took the things that Tong Nuonuo stuffed into his hand, and stuffed the darker purple balls into the storage box. Then he took the mechanical hand arrow and looked at it carefully. There was no change in appearance, and it still looked like an umbrella. Tong Nuonuo pointed and said, "Look, there is a small secret compartment here, which is the center." He flicked his fingertips lightly, and a small lid popped open on the smooth surface. "The spirit beads are placed here. Because the power is greater, a spirit bead will be consumed after firing continuously for a quarter of an hour. Remember to replace it in time, otherwise it will be unusable."
Chen Xiao held the enhanced version of the hand arrow and was in awe of Tong Nuonuo. If he was given some uranium, could he make an atomic bomb?
Chen Xiao put the hand arrow into the top grid of the storage box, next to the one where he placed the lightning charm. This position is convenient for him to use, and it can be very useful at a critical moment. He could see that Tong Nuonuo was trying his best. Although he kept talking to Chen Xiao, he was also showing Xi Yunting in disguise that he was not a drag.
Xi Yunting was too powerful, and Tong Nuonuo didn't dare to talk to him. After being severely criticized outside Chen Xiao's door, she was even more afraid of him. If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't bear to leave her friend Chen Xiao, Tong Nuonuo wouldn't have come along. Fellow Daoist Xi was becoming more and more scary.
Along the way, only Tong Nonuo and Chen Xiao were heard talking. At first, Tong Nonuo introduced the mechanism he made to Chen Xiao, but later it turned into a pure chat. Tong Nonuo told Chen Xiao where his master was and how he was brought to the mountain by his master to practice.
Tong Nuonuo was born in a poor family in Taizhen Zhongtian Realm. One day, he was writing and drawing on the ground outside the door, and was seen by his master. The master felt that he had some talent for mechanical devices, touched his bones, and tested his spiritual roots, and directly accepted him as his disciple. If he could become a disciple, the master would bear all the needs of cultivation in the future, and his family would not have to bear the burden. Tong Nuonuo did not hesitate and followed his master up the mountain.
At that time, he was still very young and not old enough to enter the school. If he had been admitted, the teachers would have discovered his excellent talents and spiritual roots, and Tong Nuonuo's master would not have been able to abduct him.
Tong Nuonuo's master is a well-known master of mechanical engineering in Taizhen. Because he became famous late and didn't take care of his appearance, he never received a disciple that suited his heart. At first, people disliked him, and later he looked down on them. Tong Nuonuo can be said to have been brought up by his master. Not only did he find the most suitable martial arts for him, but he also passed on his knowledge to him. Except that he was a little stingy when it came to materials. This master has almost no faults, and Tong Nuonuo still loves him very much.
Tong Nuonuo talked about his past, and Chen Xiao also talked about Hanwa's life experience. He encountered a beast disaster when he was a child, and his parents died one after another during the escape. He followed his uncle to Fanjia Village. When he grew up, he went out to the caravan to make a living. Unfortunately, he encountered a powerful beast and was seriously injured and almost died. Then he talked about his experience of coming to this world, how he saved himself, and how he found a job on the antique street.
This was the first time Chen Xiao talked about these things. At first, Xi Yunting could only listen to the two people talking, and his expression was a little cold. When Chen Xiao started talking about his things, Xi Yunting immediately realized the benefits of Tong Nuonuo's presence. If there were only two people, they would definitely not talk about these things.
Tong Nuonuo was very interested in his experience on the antique street, so Chen Xiao picked out the stories of bargain hunting that he had encountered and heard and told them to him. Of course, he did not forget to insert a short paragraph about his own discovery of the Feng Shui inheritance and then learning it. Because what he said was wonderful, and 90% true and 10% false, Tong Nuonuo did not doubt it at all.
After hearing him talk about finding a bargain, and knowing that Chen Xiao had a special talent in identifying immortal antiques, Tong Nuonuo couldn't help but say, "So, if the world knew that Feng Shui masters have such an advantage in treasure hunting, no matter where they go to train, they will definitely rush to get one. Just based on this point, Feng Shui masters' status among the trainees can't be that low."
Chen Xiao was stunned, thinking that it seemed to be like this. Tong Nuonuo smiled and said, "But now you are the only one, and you are training with us, so others will not have the chance to know."
The three of them chatted all the way, but they walked fast. When it was getting dark, they had already reached the edge of the beast area. Further ahead was the area where the beasts appeared. In order to stay in good condition, Xi Yunting decided to set up camp and rest.
This time, Tong Nuonuo also bought some food because of a box of spirit coins sent by the city lord. On the first night of the training, the three of them only ate the food, drank some water, and had a simple dinner.
At night, Chen Xiao took the first turn, then it was Xi Yunting's turn, and finally it was Tong Nuonuo. When Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting switched and were ready to go to bed, a problem arose.
Without Du Rong's reminder, Chen Xiao decisively prepared only one blanket. Although the temperature at night was not unacceptably cold in summer and autumn, the moisture brought by the dew made Chen Xiao's body become cold in a short time.
How can I sleep like this?
