Chapter 17 Strange-smelling porridge
The town is not very big, and the total number of residents in the town is only 900, and most of them are in their [-]s. However, if such a group of half-crazy and half-crazy people are placed in the secular world, it will What kind of uproar will it cause?

At this moment, in one of the houses in the small town, two old men in their 50s were bowing down and reporting something to the middle-aged man in front of them.

The middle-aged man was dressed in black, with long silver hair, and his face was even paler, as if he hadn't seen the sun for a long time.But the pair of triangular eyes on the face showed a cold color.

"Master, a young man suddenly appeared in the valley today, did you find something inside the door?" Although the old man was nearly fifty years old, he seemed to be in good condition, and there were no wrinkles on his entire face.

"Oh? There is such a thing. But Chen Tao, you are too weak. You can't send information to the outside world if you are in the valley. If you are so courageous, then you don't need to be my subordinate. .”

The cold man's tone was very light, and there was a faint smile on his face, but the man named Zhou Tao below was already trembling with fright.

"The subordinates dare not, but they are so worried because they are afraid that the boy will spoil the master's good deed." Chen Tao quickly explained.My master still knows it very well, if he can't use it and knows so many things, he will definitely not be left alive.

"It's good that you know. Where is the boy now?"

"I was taken by that old hag, Zhenzi, to do an experiment on heartbroken grass. Master, just in case, do you want to..." Huang Tao didn't finish speaking, but just gestured to his neck.

"The old witch has been experimenting for decades, but she has not come up with any results. However, according to legend, as long as someone can break the poison of the heartbroken grass that the ancestor finally found, whoever can become the owner of this valley of souls, and become a member of the Shennongmen. The new controller. Fortunately, the old hag is only obsessed with medicine and is not very interested in power, otherwise I would not have kept her until now. Although I can't get rid of the poison of the heartbroken grass now, but this Isn't the valley basically under my control? And the plan has been going very smoothly these years, and it will be basically completed in three to five years. At this time, no one can come in and destroy it. Zhu Rui, What do you think?"

The cold man said this, and suddenly asked another old man in front of him.The old man stroked the beard at the corner of his mouth, thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "Master, according to what Chen Tao just said, since the young man can enter the valley safely, we have not received any news. There are only two possibilities." First, the young man's status in the sect is not high, so he didn't call us in advance, and let the young man fend for himself. The second is what Chen Tao said, the sect may know what we are doing secretly But there is no evidence, so I sent people in to investigate secretly."

The master heard that Zhu Rui's analysis made sense, so he couldn't help but nodded: "You're right, then if the old hag didn't poison the young man to death, should we kill him or not?"

"Master, this boy cannot be killed for the time being."

"Oh? Zhu Rui, why is this? Could it be that there are people in this valley of souls that I, the silver fox, dare not kill." The man who called himself the silver fox had fierce eyes and a cruel look on his face when he said this.

But this Zhu Rui didn't turn pale with fright like Chen Tao just now, but curled the beard at the corner of his mouth on his fingertips, and said with a smile on his face.

"Master, calm down. No one knows the master's reputation in this valley of souls." Yinhu's expression softened immediately when he heard the old man say this.

Seeing this, Zhu Rui continued, "It's just that we don't know the origin of this young man. If he can really escape from the old witch's hand alive, even in the first case, it means that the elders behind him It is extremely powerful, and I gave him a life-saving trick. If he is really the person sent by the sect to spy on us, killing him now will only arouse the attention of the sect. Cannot be killed. Master please bear with it for the time being, and when the time comes to find out the situation, it will not be too late to deal with it."

"Haha..." After hearing this explanation, Yinhu's doubts were completely eliminated.He couldn't help being overjoyed and said: "Okay, okay, you are indeed the brains next to my silver fox, then you can stay in the small town and help me monitor the boy, and report to me immediately if there is any change, and don't come back for the time being." to the cave."

When Zhu Rui heard what his master said, he even narrowed his eyes when he laughed. "Yes, master. This subordinate must complete the task well, so that every move of that kid is under my control."

"As for you." Yinhu looked at Chen Tao in front of him, with a kind of disdain in his eyes. "It's useless anyway, so go back to the cave and take care of that thing. Remember, don't make any mistakes, if my event is ruined. I will sacrifice you and that thing together, so that you will never be reborn forever." Silver Fox said viciously.

As soon as Chen Tao heard this, his legs went limp in fright, and he knelt down on the ground. "The subordinate will definitely live up to the trust of the master." But the silver fox called the master did not notice that there was a sly look in Chen Tao's kneeling eyes, and the look disappeared in a flash, and then disappeared.

"Okay, all of you go down, I'm going to rest. Do your job well, and I'll be rewarded after it's done."

"Yes. This subordinate will leave." The two bowed and replied, then turned and walked out of the room.

Not long after the two subordinates left, the silver fox sneered and said to himself: "Hmph~, Hu Xiaotian, I didn't expect that I did so many things for you, but I just killed a few unreasonable people on a whim. So I was imprisoned here for nearly 20 years. Hahahaha~ God will not kill me, let me discover such a secret in the valley of the soul, you wait, there are still five years at most. Don’t you Shennongmen like to hide from the world? Then I will Make your Shennongmen completely disappear from this world." At the end of the speech, the man's voice was a little crazy, obviously showing signs of being possessed.

The street is not very long, and it only took Li Feng half an hour to reach the end.In order not to be caught by some old monsters for experiments, Li Feng also went to the village to do as the Romans did, making his body and clothes dirty.

Standing at the end of the street, looking at a forest in the distance, Li Feng really didn't have the courage to go on.It's already noon now, who knows if there are any raptors and beasts in the woods that will grab themselves for lunch.What's even more strange is that none of the houses in the whole street is emitting smoke. Li Feng thought to himself: Could it be that the old monsters here have cultivated to become fine, so they don't need to eat?

While I was thinking about it, an ancient bell rang.At this time, no matter whether it was the people standing on the street or the crowd in the house, they immediately rushed towards a place crazily, yelling while running: "Dinner is ready, there is food to eat."

Hearing the yelling, Li Feng wondered, could it be that people here eat in a collective system? What era is this?But after touching his growling stomach, he couldn't help walking in that direction.

When he got to the door, Li Feng was taken aback. Isn't this the biggest house in the whole town that he saw just now?Originally, it was because it was built by that big family.After a long time, it turned out to be a public canteen.

Walking into the house, the queue has already lined up far away, but the people at the front are each led a bowl made of stone tools, containing something black and mushy like porridge.It was very much like the bowl of soul-locking porridge that old Wangtou made for himself in the morning.But seeing that the people in front were all eating so deliciously, Li Feng felt relieved.

After waiting for a long time, I finally waited for Li Feng.But holding the bowl, Li Feng really couldn't finish it.The porridge was not even comparable to the bowl that Old Wang made for himself in the morning. Although the color was similar, at least the thing smelled very sweet.And the bowl in his hand, before he could eat it, a sour smell came to his nostrils. "What is this, why is it so disgusting, can it be eaten?"

An old man in sixties next to him seemed to see Li Feng's doubts, so he said kindly: "Young man, are you just here? I advise you to eat it. Although it tastes bad, it can replenish us for a day. There is only one bowl for the energy needed for a day, and it is the only thing that can be eaten in the whole valley.”

Li Feng found that there were already many glances at him at this time, among them were the old king who made porridge for him in the morning, and the old hag who made him half dead.For fear of being discovered again as a newcomer.Li Feng bit it, but didn't dare to taste it.Just poured it directly into his mouth.

As soon as I took it in, I found that it was even worse than I imagined. Apart from the sour smell, it also had a bit of bitterness.But as soon as the porridge entered the stomach, a cloud of hot air rushed towards Tianling Gai.But it made the whole body become hot.The fatigue on the body also disappeared without a trace.

Li Feng couldn't help being very surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Grandpa, what's the name of this thing?"

"Oh, although this thing doesn't taste very good, it has a very nice name, Qingxin Congee. I don't know exactly what it is." Seeing Li Feng's politeness, the old man replied enthusiastically.

Qingxin porridge, the name is good, but the taste is really hard to swallow.Now Li Feng doesn't know that he will stay here for another three years.In the past three years, this is the only thing that can feed the hunger.

And three years later, when Li Feng returned to the secular world, what he missed most in this valley of souls was the pure heart porridge he once hated.I have to say that life's encounters are indeed too wonderful.You never know what will flash in your heart in the next second.Maybe it was the person I loved the most, maybe it was the thing I hated the most, but who can tell clearly.
