I can bless thousands of magical powers.

Chapter 176 Reminder
Sitting in the ordinary, even somewhat shabby and simple living room, Qu Hong pondered and did not speak immediately.

The manager of Xishanji is well-informed and has met countless different kinds of people.

But people like Zhang Yuan are rare.

Since settling down in Xishanji, Zhang Yuan has been living a solitary life.

Zhang Yuan usually doesn't interact with anyone, including his closest neighbors, who rarely see him, let alone communicate with him.

In fact, it is not uncommon to find eccentric people in Xishanji.

However, Zhang Yuan gave Qu Hong an elusive feeling.

It felt like the Zhang Yuan I saw was just a tip of a reef floating on the water.

And there is no way of knowing how much is hidden underwater!
This made Qu Hong feel extremely wary.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, he also deliberately spread the message, asking people in the collection not to provoke Zhang Yuan.

On the surface, Zhang Yuan is also a third-level Huajin warrior.

But even at the same third level, there could be huge differences!
Qu Hong's visit this time may have been intended as a further test.

Seeing Zhang Yuan sitting down, the manager of Xishanji asked, "Brother Zhao Yun, the rainy season is coming soon. Have you gone to the Heavenly King Palace to get the talisman?"

Flood and rainy season? Heavenly King Palace? Suppressing talisman?

Zhang Yuan was a little confused.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Manager Qu, I'm new here and not familiar with the situation here. Could you give me some advice?"

Previously on the way to Xiaxu.

Zhang Yuan went through Mu Guangcheng, the caravan manager.

Gained a basic understanding of Xiaxu.

But Mu Guangcheng did not mention the "flood rainy season", "Heavenly King Hall" and "suppressing talisman".

"I don't deserve your advice."

Qu Hong smiled and said, "Brother Zhao Yun, since you don't understand, let me briefly explain it."

It turns out that the area where Xiaxu is located has heavy rains every year at this time of year.

A month or even longer.

During this period, the water level of Changtian River will surge, flooding the downstream area and merging with Damengze.

The land within hundreds of miles is completely swamped!
This period of time is called the flood and rainy season.

After the rainy season arrived, water and land transportation were cut off and Xiaxu became a huge isolated island.

Everyone has to hide in their homes.

However, the ruins city is located at a very high altitude and cannot be reached by the overflowing water of the Changtian River, so there is no danger of a flood.

As for Xishanji, the terrain is higher than that of Xucheng!
However, when the rainy season comes, the ferocious beasts and even the strange creatures in Taiwu Mountain will come down.

It posed a considerable threat to Xiaxu.

And Xishanji was the first to bear the brunt!

This is the fundamental reason why Xishanji has not been occupied by any force.

In fact, every year during the flood and rainy season, some people go missing, die or get injured.

Therefore, when the flood and rainy season comes, many people will leave here and seek shelter elsewhere.

But many people also choose to stay.

Some have nowhere to go, while others are not afraid of death.

Those who stayed behind had to go to the Heavenly King Palace in Xiaxu City to ask for two talismans.

The talisman is used to ward off evil spirits and has a certain deterrent effect on low-level monsters.

Qu Hong’s meaning was very clear.

If Zhang Yuan wants to stay and spend the rainy season, he should go and get the talisman.

Please is a nice way of saying it, but it actually means buy.

Five taels for one, no cheating for anyone!

It's not just Xishanji, but any family living in Waixu has to ask for one if they can use it.

Keep your family safe.

"I see."

After listening to Qu Hong's story, Zhang Yuan suddenly understood: "Thank you, Brother Qu, for your advice!"

"You're welcome."

Qu Hong smiled and said, "This is also my responsibility. I hope everyone can be safe and sound." He chatted with Zhang Yuan for a few more words, then said goodbye and left.

Zhang Yuan escorted the manager out the door.

Looking at the other person's leaving figure, his eyes revealed a thoughtful look.

Qu Hong looks like a nice guy.

But in a place like Xishanji, it is not easy to deal with people like him when you are in charge.
There may be danger lurking beneath the other person's kind surface!

Of course, Qu Hong is obviously not Zhang Yuan’s enemy at the moment.

A friendly reminder for the former.

He still appreciated it.

After closing the door, Zhang Yuan immediately set off for the ruins city.

He originally had a horse as a mount.

Later, because it was too troublesome to raise and take care of it at home, I simply...

Although he was walking, with his multiple agility, Zhang Yuan's speed was not much slower than running.

Now, he has been able to skillfully use the subtle abilities of the fourth-level divine nest.

At least half of the energy and blood consumption is saved!
Zhang Yuan slowed down when he was approaching the ruins of the city.

When he arrived at the city gate, he habitually glanced at the city wall next to him.

Zhang Yuan's eyes fixed.

He had sharp eyesight and immediately spotted a reward notice posted there with his own portrait printed on it!
Zhang Yuan slowed down his pace calmly.

He mingled among the crowd entering and leaving the ruined city and took two more glances.

This bounty notice was actually issued by the Angry Whale Gang.

As a wanted man, Zhang Yuan was charged with betraying the gang and killing innocent gang members.

The reward amount is as high as five thousand taels of silver!
In addition to a portrait picture that is at least 80% similar, Zhang Yuan’s basic information is also listed.

His name, age, strength and cultivation...

And the martial arts he is good at!

Quite detailed.

However, Zhang Yuan was not very angry about the reward notice.

Or the feeling of being stabbed in the back.

He can be 100% sure.

This must be the work of Qingyun Temple!

You should know that there is no branch of the Angry Whale Gang in Xiaxu, and Zhang Yuan has not committed any crime of treason or killing gang members.

Now the reward notice has been posted here, which shows how angry the poster is.

Who else could it be besides Qingyun Temple?
Of course, he was not too surprised by the appearance of this reward notice.

Zhang Yuan was already prepared.

His current appearance is very different from his original appearance.

When Liu Qinnan was leaving, she gave him a copy of "Jianghu Records" passed down from her master, which contained information on disguise, changing appearance, sneaking, tracking, investigating, saving lives in dangerous situations and many other methods.

Zhang Yuan worked very hard on the art of disguise.

The disguise techniques in "Jianghu Lu" are very sophisticated, and the effect of changing one's appearance is not achieved through makeup.

Instead, he skillfully used his own strength to control the facial muscles and even the tendons and bones for adjustment.

The effect of this adjustment is difficult to detect.

Not only that, Zhang Yuan also often applies a common herb on his eyebrows and chin.

Used to grow eyebrows and beard!

Today, his eyebrows have become much thicker.

Also has a beard.

Now, let alone the people from the Angry Whale Gang, even if my mother was standing in front of me, I wouldn’t be able to tell them apart easily!

So Zhang Yuan was not afraid at all.

He calmly entered the ruined city and headed straight for the Heavenly King Palace located in the middle of the ruins.
