Chapter 245: Leverage
"Good morning, Junior Brother Nanchi."
A few scattered people in the crowd responded.
Nan Chi noticed the complicated looks these people gave her, but she didn't care.
In the past few days, more than a hundred outsiders have come to the village one after another, and she is the only one who has successfully moved into the village chief's house. It would be abnormal if these people did not have any thoughts in their minds.
"Junior Brother Nanchi, what is it like living in the village chief's house?"
Look, this person started the conversation first.
Nan Chi smiled and said calmly, "The village chief's house is the same as the mud house you live in now. As the head of the clan, the old man's house is even more simple. There's nothing special about it."
“…”
"Didn't the old patriarch tell you something special?" Someone else jumped out and asked more directly.
"What's the special matter? The village chief is approachable. If you have any questions, you can ask him directly." Nan Chi still handled it calmly.
Everyone fell silent.
Indeed, although the clan leader was elusive, he was so approachable that it was hard to believe that he was a god-level powerful being.
Over the past month, it’s not that no one has run into this old patriarch.
During this period, anyone who met him, the clever ones would take the opportunity to ask some questions about cultivation, and the patriarch would give them a very satisfactory answer.
This is even more thought-provoking.
If you could live next to such an approachable master, wouldn’t you gain more?
That's why these people had such complicated expressions when they looked at Nan Chi.
They have become lemons!
"Okay, is everyone here? Let's go." At this time, Zong Lie and Huo Sijun appeared and invited everyone to set off.
"I think if we set out together as a group, the conspicuousness will be too great. It would be better for us to separate into groups." At this time, Nian Shiyuan stood up and said.
"Brother Nian is right. Let's set off in batches." Zong Lie followed suit and made the decision without giving anyone any room to object.
Nan Chi admired him very much. Senior Brother Zong Lie looked like a modest gentleman who did things in a methodical manner, but unexpectedly, he had such a sinister side.
Although the people present had their objections, they all thought that Nian Shiyuan's proposal was indeed sound.
They had no choice but to take out their own means of transportation and set off one after another.
Zong Lie took out his aircraft and said, "Come on board. We need to go somewhere else before this."
“…”
Half an hour later.
Nan Chi stood on a barren plain, looking solemnly at an area that seemed to have been scorched by a fire.
"Brother, why did we come to this place?"
"To retrieve the things that Gu Xue left here?" Huo Sijun asked expressionlessly.
"To be precise, it is a treasure that the Zong family left behind here." Now that he was here, Zong Lie had no intention of hiding anything.
In the past, someone from his clan had studied ancient antiquities and died here, carrying important family items with him.
Nan Chi flew high into the sky and carefully surveyed the terrain before saying, "There are a large number of alien species in this place. The three of us can't kill them all in a short time."
"You use the formation." Huo Sijun said from the side.
Nan Chi choked, resisting the urge to roll his eyes. After a while, he said, "I'll try my best."
As he spoke, he fumbled around in the space and decided to use the Seven Killing Formation he had carved earlier.
At this critical moment, Nan Chi didn't want to pretend too much. After all, this place was where many ancient scholars had died, and it would be bad if he capsized in the gutter.
Huo Sijun stood there, watching Nan Chi skillfully set up the formation, with a barely noticeable smile on his lips.
"The formation is ready, just follow me." Nan Chi quickly set up the formation, took out a wooden sword, held it, and was about to enter the formation.
"Did you forget something?"
Nan Chi turned around and saw that the annoying guy Huo Jiu was standing there with his hands folded on his chest, not following him.
"What?" Nan Chi held his breath, his hands itching to hit someone.
Huo Sijun looked at the wooden sword in her hand, his eyes clearly conveying some message.
Nan Chi took a deep breath and handed two wooden swords to the two men from the space buckle.
Zong Lie looked at her with a more inquiring look, "Junior Brother Nanchi, I've seen this wooden sword in someone else's hands."
Nan Chi pursed her lips and immediately looked at Huo Sijun. He was still looking at her with those complex and incomprehensible black eyes. She said, "Really? Maybe it's the same kind of sword."
"Your talent is truly enviable. In such a short time, you were able to memorize this complex and intricate formation, and at the same time, create three swords."
Here it comes again, Huo Sijun's sarcastic tone comes again!
Nan Chi could only laugh it off, "Brother, you're joking. If it were you, you would definitely be able to reach my level."
"I can't, at least I can't understand those difficult and obscure words and meanings." Huo Sijun suddenly smiled.
His smile was so charming and elegant. Normally, Nan Chi, who was obsessed with appearance, would have looked at him a few more times when she saw him smiling so beautifully. But now, she only felt that there was something dangerous behind that smile of his.
"..." Nan Chi pursed his lips and decided not to continue arguing with this nitpicker.
You're right if you argue! I won't accompany you anymore!
"Let's go." Nan Chi turned around and entered the formation.
"In fact, this formation is only specifically targeted at alien races, and it does not cause much harm to humans.
Because the ancestors of the Chinese people on the Blue Star occasionally discovered that there was a kind of energy between heaven and earth that could restrain alien races.
So they created this formation. The moment it took shape, it could instantly gather the righteous energy of heaven and earth to suppress the alien races... "
Nan Chi walked straight through the formation, explaining the formation's structure.
Huo Sijun seemed to be lost in thought. Yesterday, the old patriarch had given him a manual on formation secrets. However, he could only understand a few of the words at the back by guessing.
For the first time, Huo Sijun and Zong Lie felt despair that they were also illiterate.
"That's just like what's said in that formation manual: everything in the world is interdependent and mutually exclusive, and one thing can defeat another..."
Zong Lie struggled to utter the words that had been circling in his mind like a spell all day.
A smile flashed in Nanchi's eyes.
The secret manuals were all written in difficult and obscure classical Chinese. It was extremely difficult for two aliens who didn't even know the language of Telan Star very well to learn classical Chinese.
"Yes, everything in this world is governed by laws. For example, in a food chain, humans eat cows, cows eat grass, and the grass absorbs nutrients from the soil..."
"No, in the thousands of years of fighting against the aliens, our interstellar community has also tried to find ways to restrain them, but the results haven't been this good. There must be other unknown secrets on Planet Terlan."
Huo Sijun looked at Nan Chi steadily, and then looked at the alien species not far away who were in dire straits.
Because the three of them had unknowingly arrived at the center of the formation, which was outside the base camp of the alien race here. Those alien species had already triggered the formation and were being refined by it.
Nan Chi's eyes flashed. This guy is really sharp. He can grasp the key point in one go.
Indeed, the most crucial point in successfully carving a powerful formation is that the person carving it must cultivate that special mental method...
