Fulu Rubik's Cube

Chapter 195 Tuocheng
Bolang City.

Zhang Ke stared blankly at the place where the Baifu was.

In the original Bai family's house, there are many people coming in and out at this time.

Piles of sand and soil were piled up everywhere, and giant logs and large pieces of cut granite were neatly stacked.

Craftsmen and handymen were busy under the command of some who looked like overseers.

Zhang Ke looked at the plaque above his head.

"Tantai"

In the ditch beside it, the signboard of the White Mansion was thrown aside.

Zhang Ke was a little confused and didn't understand what happened.

After thinking for a moment, instead of asking, he went to find Lin Shaopei.

Unexpectedly, Lin Shaopei never came back.

Looking at the flickering eyes of the servant of the Lin family, Zhang Ke had a bad premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, after asking around, I got the news of a bolt from the blue.

The Bai family in Bolang City was suspected of colluding with monsters, causing countless deaths of innocent people, and was punished by all the families.

After Zhang Ke heard the news, he was shocked at first, and then felt ridiculous.

Especially the Bai family was not killed in Bolang City.

On the contrary, he was completely killed by the second-rate sect "Shenyimen" in Tuocheng.

Zhang Ke turned around immediately, and the others stopped looking.

After inquiring about the direction of Tuocheng, he changed his body and flew away directly.

Tuocheng.

Thousands of miles southeast of Dingzhou.

The location of Tuocheng is quite special. If you go south, you will arrive at Haizhou after crossing the Shiwanda Mountain.

Because there are hundreds of thousands of mountains blocking the monsoon, the climate here is different from other places.

As a result, there are three seasons of heavy rainfall in a year, so the vegetation is relatively lush.

The reason why it is called Tuocheng is not lacking in the meaning of torrential rain.

At noon that day, Zhang Ke came outside Tuocheng.

At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and from time to time, thunder flashed in the clouds, making dull noises.

The pouring rain was like a hole in the sky, pouring down from top to bottom.

Although it was noon, there was darkness between the sky and the earth, as if it was almost evening.

There was no one at the gate of the city, and they all hid in their houses to avoid the rain.

The rune Taoist robe on Zhang Ke has the function of preventing water, so he is not afraid of getting wet.

At this time, the hood hidden behind the Taoist robe was already on, and even his face was hidden.

The wind and rain in the sky and the earth are violent, and the divine sense probe receives countless external signals every second.

It caused the brain to run at super speed, and the power of the soul was greatly consumed.

There was no other way, Zhang Ke had no choice but to scatter the divine sense probe, and use his perception to feel everything around him.

Walking to the gate of the city, he couldn't help but stop. From his perception, it seemed that there had been a war here recently.

Most of the city walls and gates were damaged, and the signs of damage were strange, with huge paw prints.

After pausing for a moment, he walked through the unguarded city gate and stepped into Tuocheng, stepping on the muddy water enough to cover his ankles.

After entering Tuocheng, it showed a dilapidated appearance.

Perception uplifted, looking down from the sky.

Numerous buildings collapsed, and broken bricks and ruins can be seen everywhere.

Even in the torrential rain, there are still many people hiding under some eaves.

Or find some wooden boards, lean against the wall in groups of three or four, and put the boards on top of your head to shelter from the wind and rain.

Quite a few people were wearing white filial piety, obviously the city had just experienced a heavy disaster.

Everyone's expressions were numb and dull, without a trace of life, as if they had lost hope in everything.

Zhang Ke was walking slowly in the rain, he could feel his heavy breathing.

Everything around him seemed to be far away from him, only eyes were fixed on him.

He didn't know what happened here, and there was great malice in these gazes.

There is resentment, anger, fear, and even hatred!

Rumant is on the back!

This is the only feeling he has at the moment!
It wasn't until I got away from these homeless people and entered an inn that I felt relieved.

Standing in front of the foyer, shaking off the rainwater on his body, the divine sense probe condensed again.

Looking around, there are more than a dozen square tables in the square lobby.

There were only two tables of people eating, which seemed a little deserted.

Seeing someone enter, a waiter with a white towel around his neck greeted him.

"Yo! You're a Daoist, do you stay in the shop?"

"Yeah! Open an upper room and get some vegetarian dishes!"

"Okay! Guest officer, please come inside!"

The waiter greeted Zhang Ke to sit down at a table, and wiped the table quickly.

"Xiaoer! When Pindao entered the city just now, he saw a lot of people homeless. What happened?"

The waiter was a clever young man, he turned his head and looked at the counter, and saw that the shopkeeper was dialing the abacus, and no one was paying attention.

He lowered his voice and said, "Something did happen, let's talk about it later!"

After finishing speaking, he hung the towel around his neck, turned and left, and greeted the two guests who had just entered the store.

Zhang Ke thought for a while, got up and went to the counter.

"Ask Xiaoer to bring the food to my room, and I'm preparing a pot of shochu, which needs to be hot!"

The shopkeeper quickly answered and told the waiter to say hello.

The guest room is very clean, the windows are bright, and there are two pots of flowers on the window sill, and the room seems to be a little more lively.

Zhang Ke couldn't help but nodded, slightly satisfied.

"Tuk Tuk!"

Following the knock on the door, two shop assistants entered the room.

One was carrying the food, while the other was carrying a stove and a jar of wine.

The two quickly organized a good meal.

Zhang Ke pointed to one of the waiters with his right hand.

"You stay and warm the wine for me!"

"Okay, Daoist!"

The other waiter left the guest room and closed the door behind him.

Without saying a word, Zhang Ke took out an ingot of silver, kneaded it into a silver stick, and pinched it with two fingers in the middle of his right hand.

"bass!"

Like scissors cutting paper, a thin piece of silver was cut and dropped on the table.

"Gudu!"

The waiter swallowed and understood Zhang Ke's meaning.

He laughed and said, "Young one will definitely tell what you know and never hide anything!"

The silver rod was pinched like mud in Zhang Ke's hands.

"Tell me?"

The waiter wiped the sweat off his brow, and said in a low voice, "That's what happened!"

"About more than a month ago, a group of monsters suddenly rushed out from the Shiwan Dashan, broke into Tuocheng, and devoured people everywhere. Many people were killed and injured."

"Fortunately, at that time, Master Xuankong of Dafang Temple opened an altar to teach the Dharma in the city, and there were many immortal elders like... like Taoist masters in the city."

"So quickly killing those monsters who harmed the people is avenging the people."

Zhang Ke listened, and some doubts arose in his heart.

"Do the monsters from the Hundred Thousand Mountains often come down to harm the people?"

The waiter in the shop shook his head: "Very few, the young ones are also born and raised here. When I was young, I heard from the old people that there used to be monsters coming down the mountain. I haven't heard of monsters coming down the mountain for decades."

The shop clerk hesitated for a while, leaned forward, and said in a low voice: "I heard that there is an agreement between the fairy head and the monster, not to go down the mountain to harm people!"

Zhang Ke thought for a while, and continued to ask: "Then Tuocheng is not prepared against the Hundred Thousand Mountains on weekdays, after all, it is so close?"

The shop waiter said angrily: "How can you be unprepared? I heard that a fairy chief surnamed Bai destroyed some formation in the city and lured monsters into the city to harm people!"

Zhang Ke raised his eyebrows sharply: "Oh! The surname is Bai? Who is it?"

The shop clerk scratched his head and said, "I heard from the head of the "Shenyi Gate" that it was a person named Bai... or something, let me think about it!"

The waiter frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly clapped his hands.

"Remember, Bai Youan! Yes, that bastard named Bai Youan brought the monster in!"
