The dark clouds in the sky suddenly faded away, releasing light.
The three monks guarding Dushui City were all stunned when they saw this scene.
"What's going on?"
"The rain stopped, and the river monster retreated on its own?"
The Lord of Dushui City, who was in the lead, showed a look of joy on his face.
There is a big monster in the Dushui River. It has been living in peace with Dushui City for thousands of years. However, today it suddenly went crazy and seemed to be ready to devour all the mortals in Dushui City.
His Zhao family has lived and multiplied in Dushui City for generations, and all his relatives are in the city. Of course, it is impossible for him to abandon the city and escape alone.
His cultivation was low, and he had planned to wait until the big monster came to attack, and then fight to the death with the help of the formation in the city. However, he didn't expect that everything was over before the fight even started.
"Quick! Get to the dock."
"The fish demon has gone mad and will never retreat. Something must have happened."
…
After the rainstorm subsided, shops on both sides of the main street opened their doors one after another, more people walked on the road, and the quiet Dushui City gradually returned to its bustle.
"It's really windy and rainy today!"
"I thought it would last the next day, but I didn't expect it to stop so soon."
"What are you standing there for? You've lost a lot of business. Hurry and open the door!"
"Make way, the corpse recovery team is here!"
"I heard a lot of people drowned at the dock. What bad luck..."
The wheels of the cart were turning very fast, and with a creaking sound, it rolled over the puddles on the roadside, splashing rain water. Xiang Sheng calmly took a step to the right, just in time to avoid all the dirty water, and continued to move forward.
A moment later, Xiang Sheng stepped into a restaurant.
The restaurant had just opened after the rain, and there were very few customers. Xiang Sheng went up to the highest floor alone and sat down by the window.
From this perspective, you can just see the scene of the dock outside the city.
"Sir, the food and drinks you requested are here!"
The waiter brought the signature dishes and drinks with great enthusiasm. Just as he was about to pick up the jug to pour wine, he saw Xiang Sheng raise his hand to refuse and immediately stepped back.
The rooftop returned to silence. Xiang Sheng raised his finger and the clear wine flew out of the jug and fell into the glass.
The wine in the cup rippled, and a face gradually appeared on the surface of the wine. However, it was not Xiang Sheng, but a young man who remained in the memory.
Xiang Sheng stared at him for a long time, then relaxed his tightly pursed lips, picked up the wine glass and poured it on the table, and said softly:.
"Little brother, I haven't visited you for over a hundred years. It's my fault. This is where we first met. I'll stay here and spend some time with you as we first met. How about that?"
After deciding on a place to live in seclusion, Xiang Sheng put aside his worries, picked up a few pieces of food with his chopsticks, and unexpectedly found that the food in the restaurant tasted good, so he ate a few more bites.
While she was eating and drinking, the body recovery team had already arrived at the dock.
Zhao Chengzhu's spiritual consciousness flashed, and he immediately found Chen the blacksmith, half of his body buried in the mud in the distance. After waking him up, he finally learned the process of the fish monster's rebellion.
But before Xiang Sheng arrived, Chen the Blacksmith fainted. City Lord Zhao could only guess that a powerful cultivator passed by and took care of the big monster, saving Chen the Blacksmith.
…
After finishing his meal, Xiang Sheng left the restaurant without stopping and headed straight to the east of the city.
Although the streets in the east of the city are not as busy as the main roads, there are still many pedestrians.
Xiang Sheng didn't walk far along the street before he saw an old blacksmith shop at the end of the street. On the flag fluttering in the wind outside the shop was embroidered a big word "Chen".
"East of Dushui City, Chen's Blacksmith Shop..."
Xiang Sheng murmured to himself, and a distant memory emerged in his mind.
"If you feel you have owed me something, you might as well go to Chen's Blacksmith Shop in the east of Dushui City. Life is tough, and if you can help out, it would be even better..."
That was when the Chiyan Sect had not yet been destroyed. In order to escape from Xiang Hongyu's control, she decided to practice swordsmanship.
The nameless sword manual was obtained by chance from a blacksmith at the foot of the mountain. After giving it to him, the blacksmith left these words and left the sect.
With Xiang Sheng's current state and excellent memory, he naturally wouldn't forget this agreement, but he was busy with other things and had no time to think about it. Now that he arrived in Dushui City, he immediately remembered this matter.
Also coming to mind are Qinji and Shisi.
Ever since she came out from underground above the Xiang family mine, she has lost contact with them. Now, too much time has passed since then.
Are they... still there?
Xiang Sheng really wanted to start a spiritual search. As long as these two people were still alive, with her current abilities, she could easily find them.
But when she thought of this, she felt an inexplicable fear in her heart. What was she afraid of?
Xiang Sheng didn't even want to think about it, and directly expanded his spiritual sense to scan Chen's Blacksmith Shop.
When he looked around, he saw that the shop was empty and there was no one there.
She frowned slightly, and her consciousness extended along the path behind the shop to the backyard, and finally saw a girl with pigtails standing on a bench in front of the stove, skillfully serving soup.
The girl moved very skillfully. After filling a bowl of soup, she lifted the bowl by the edge and placed it in the food box on the ground. Then she covered it with a wooden lid, lifted it up with difficulty, and walked to the next yard.
The blacksmith shop is not closed, and the little girl's parents should be in good health. Who is she delivering food to?
With a hint of doubt, Xiang Sheng's gaze fell on the courtyard next door, and his spiritual sense swept it again.
This glance shocked her and her breathing stopped instantly.
…
"Fourteenth Grandpa, Fengfeng is here!"
A clear and pleasant child's voice came into his ears. Fourteen, who was lying in bed with a haggard look, slowly opened his eyes. Seeing the little girl carrying the food box with difficulty, a trace of kindness appeared in his eyes.
"Why are you here again? Didn't your father stop you?"
Fourteen was too old, and had long lost the liveliness of his youth. His skinny face was covered with wrinkles like tree bark, and his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, which was frightening to listen to.
