Chapter 2291 Separated Midway
Zhou Shu took Liu Jinshan all the way to Hanruo.
When Liu Jinshan saw Han Ruo, he sniffed unconsciously and secretly restrained his breath. It would be uncomfortable if he accidentally inhaled the smell of the herring clan.
Hanruo was a little surprised and said via message, "Zhou Shu, why did you bring him here?"
Zhou Shu didn't answer, but stared at Liu Jinshan, his eyes flashing.
Liu Jinshan was a little frightened by the sight, but he didn't dare to get angry, so he just whispered, "Zhou...Fellow Daoist Zhou, I wonder what Master Curse Master wants to do with me?"
Zhou Shu said slowly, "Fellow Daoist Liu, decades ago, you accepted the mission to find the hidden world in Wufang City, and then you came here, right?"
Liu Jinshan nodded, "Yes."
Zhou Shu pointed at the tavern and said thoughtfully, "Don't be nervous, I want to ask, how did you get together with those people? Aren't the true immortals from Wufang City supposed to be locked up in the town? ?”
"Fellow Daoist Zhou is here for the first time, so I don't know anything."
Liu Jinshan relaxed a little, "The island owner will promote some people every few years. If they perform well in the town, such as robbing, no, planting enough black sand fungi, they can complete the output required by the island owner every year. If you are loyal to the island owner, you can leave the town and come here to do new tasks, or you can leave the city."
Zhou Shu hesitated for a moment, "Black sand fungus?"
"yes."
Liu Jinshan nodded, "We all call it black sand fungus."
Zhou Shu paused, "What does it look like? I want to see it."
Liu Jinshan was stunned for a moment, and then said quickly, "See? Daoyou Zhou is lucky enough not to go to the town, but why do you want to see that? I'm scared to death when I get close to it. It specializes in absorbing the flesh and blood essence of our immortals. The more it absorbs, the more it grows." Lush, it grows like moss, and looks like black particles, densely packed together. But when it sucks blood, it turns into dark blue, gets bigger and bigger, and even sprouts tentacles. It's really weird. "
Zhou Shu nodded, "Oh."
He sort of figured it out.
The so-called black sand fungus should be poisonous moss.
It is a highly poisonous creature from the underworld, which looks like both an animal and a plant. It grows by devouring flesh and blood, especially the flesh of immortals. If there are suitable conditions, they can reproduce extremely fast and can completely cover a world within a few years. As for the world covered by the poisonous moss, even if the poisonous moss is completely removed in the future, it will be difficult for immortals to survive in the environment for thousands of years.
It can be said to be the most vicious weapon against the fairy city.
Zhou Shu knew about the poisonous moss from Aster. The poisonous moss is still rare outside the underworld, and its rhizomes can be used to make elixirs.
Seeing that Zhou Shu was silent, Liu Jinshan whispered, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, I have told you everything you know. If nothing happens, I will leave."
Before he turned around, Zhou Shu shook his head, "We haven't said anything about the business yet, why are you in a hurry."
Liu Jinshan was stunned for a moment, "What's the business?"
Zhou Shu stared at him and said solemnly, "At that time, there were seventeen people who were with you in Wufang City to take on the mission from the hidden world. The two golden immortals who led the team were Xu Chen and Yan Song, and one of them was named Luo The Sanxian of Xiping, where is he now?"
"ah!"
Hanruo's heart was shocked and he almost shouted out. He composed himself and said, "Zhou Shu, how do you know which team he is from?"
Zhou Shu replied, "If he wasn't, what would I do to him? I investigated everything about the situation clearly before I came here to find out. Only a confused person like you could come here without making any preparations." "
Hanruo's face turned red and he stopped talking. He looked at Liu Jinshan and tried his best to suppress the nervousness in his heart.
Liu Jinshan paused, "Luo Xiping is the assassin who assassinated the real immortal. I remember him."
Han Ruo's eyes lit up and she stared at him, her heart beating like a drum. Zhou Shu looked very calm, "How is he?"
Liu Jinshan shook his head, "I don't know."
Hanruo couldn't bear it any longer and said, "How could you not know? Didn't you come with him?"
Liu Jinshan said quickly, "I really don't know. We went out to search for the hidden world for seven years. Some people didn't want to continue searching, while others insisted on continuing to search. There was a dispute, and then we separated halfway and went back. Go back, and those who continue to search continue to search. I was among the group that went back, so we arrived at Heishawu, and those who continued to search, I don’t know where they went.”
Hanruo was shocked when he heard the sound, and lowered his head unconsciously, and his heart sank.
Zhou Shu slightly thought about it, it was indeed possible.
I always felt that these seventeen people should be together, but I didn't expect that they would also get entangled and then separate and go their own way.
Zhou Shu thought for a while, "Who are the people you insist on looking for? Remember their names and tell me."
Liu Jinshan nodded, "I remember that those who continued to search were Xu Chen, Lin Buling... a total of eight, plus Luo Xiping. I remember that he didn't want to look for him, but he was tied up by Xu Chen. The fairy rope was taken away by force."
Han Ruo glanced at him bitterly.
Zhou Shu's heart tightened, but he still said calmly, "Where did you separate?"
Liu Jinshan thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure about this. By the way... I remember that there were several void storms nearby. I saw that one at that time, and searched around again with no results. Many people thought of not continuing to search. The idea of going down.”
Hanruo was shocked and a little dazed.
Zhou Shu patted Liu Jinshan on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Thank you, fellow Taoist, there is nothing else I want to know, but fellow Taoist, don't talk about today's matter with others, otherwise it will be difficult for the Curse Master to explain. "
"Of course I know, so I'm leaving."
Liu Jinshan bowed and retreated, leaving in a hurry, as if he was frightened.
Hanruo looked at Zhou Shu, begging, "Zhou Shu, do you think what he said is true? Is it true that my brother didn't come to Heishawu?"
Zhou Shu paused and said, "It is unlikely that he lied. Brother Luo may have encountered something else, but... it may be more sinister."
Hanruo's heart tightened and he asked suspiciously, "Why? He's not in Heishawu, so why is he still so dangerous?"
"It might be better in Black Sand Wood. As long as you don't resist, you'll be fine."
Zhou Shu sighed slightly, "Besides Brother Luo, there are eight people who continue to find the hidden world with him. Liu Jinshan also mentioned eight names, right?"
Hanruo nodded slightly, "Yes, eight."
Zhou Shu glanced at her and said slowly, "The eight people who continue to look for the hidden world are the eight who have lost their souls as Shouzheng said. In other words, all the people who were with Brother Luo are dead, only Brother Luo is still alive."
"Ah, are they all dead?"
Hanruo was shocked and stood there motionless.
"Yeah, I think they encountered a terrible situation. Even Jinxian died, but Brother Luo is still alive. I really can't understand why?" Zhou Shu looked at her and shook his head, "Hanruo, You’re not hiding anything from me, are you, for example, what’s so special about Brother Luo?”
Hanruo was stunned for a moment and said in a daze, "I don't know many things about my brother."
Zhou Shu withdrew his gaze and said warmly, "Forget it, I think Brother Luo must have some special skills, but it's good to be alive."
