Chapter 2404 Locust Tide

Central area, dome spire.

On the top floor, an old man closed his eyes and said to himself, "Ou Ting, how did you agree to help him forge a sword? Is he really from that world? He even used dragon gold. He really Did you attack Yucheng? What do you want with this sword and this guy..."

"Report!"

A voice came from below.

The old man waved, and a shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, bowed his head and said, "City Lord."

The old man said calmly, "What's the matter?"

Xuying said solemnly, "City Lord, more and more migratory locusts have been detected outside recently. It is basically certain that the locust tide will pass through Crescent City in two months."

"oh."

The old man nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "I understand, I will give the order later, and you guys will wait below."

"yes."

The shadow quickly disappeared.

"I came here earlier than before. The world is really changing. Alas..."

The old man slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were bright, and his gaze seemed to be thousands of miles away. Then, Zhou Shu, who was crossing the boundary, was suddenly startled, as if he was being targeted by something, and he quickly opened his eyes.

The old man looked away and smiled lightly, "Then let's take another look."

Zhou Shu stared into the distance, seemingly thoughtful. Although the feeling of being watched disappeared, his heart became heavier, as if something was about to happen.

Crescent City.

News of the approaching locust tide spread quickly, and people everywhere were talking about it in the streets.

"Don't they only come once every three hundred years? I remember that the last locust wave came two hundred and seventy years ago, right?"

"To be exact, it's two hundred and sixty-nine years, but that's not surprising. The time between the last locust wave and the last one was only two hundred and eighty-one years, and it seemed that it was less than three hundred years. In fact, The time between locust surges has become shorter.”

"Isn't this a good thing?"

"Who knows, but the locust tide itself is not a good thing..."

"It's not a good thing for Immortal City, but for us practitioners, it's a good opportunity for experience. If we're lucky, we can make a lot of money."

"That also depends on your strength. For someone like me, alas, I can only worry."

In a large restaurant, several guests were drinking and chatting, some with worried faces, while others were very happy.

Not far away, there was a woman sitting alone in front of the window. She listened curiously to what others were saying. She leaned on her forehead, blinked, and seemed to be talking to herself, "Everyone is talking about the locust tide. What is a locust tide?" ?”

"Sister, a locust tide is a locust tide."

Behind the woman, a young man turned around, looked at the woman and nodded teasingly.

Hearing the voice, the woman's eyes suddenly turned cold. When she saw the boy, she was stunned for a moment and stood up quickly, "I'm sorry, senior, junior, I accidentally disturbed you."

When he noticed the woman's eyes, the young man's expression changed, but he soon smiled again, "You're welcome, my name is You Chongzhi."

The woman hesitated for a moment and said calmly, "Junior Zhou Ruo, I have met Senior You."

You Chongzhi was stunned for a moment, "Zhou Ruo, your surname is Zhou again?"

The woman bowed and turned to leave, "Junior will not disturb senior anymore."

You Chongzhi said quickly, "Miss Zhou, wait a minute, don't you want to know about the locust tide? I can tell you."

The woman looked reserved, "No need, I don't dare bother my seniors."

You Chongzhi didn't say anything else. He turned around and said dullly, "The senior on the left, the senior on the right. Being a golden immortal seems to be a lot more troublesome. It's not at all as comfortable and boring as before."

You Pizhi on the side said jokingly, "Fourth brother, could it be that you have fallen in love with me?"

You Chongzhi shook his head and frowned, "I'm not interested. Now I don't want to think about anything but cultivation. Second brother, what are you doing to drag me out today?"

"It's okay, I just want you to come out and relax. We don't have the fairy wine in Xiaolelou in Baiyu Kyoto."

You Pizhi looked at him and said with concern, "You have gone too far in your cultivation now. Going too far is not enough. Don't you know?"

"I'm too lazy to drink."

You Chongzhi looked at the wine glass with a look of disgust, "It's what you said. I can only go to Dao Brother Zhou if I catch up with him. What else can I do if I don't practice?"

You Pizhi said slowly, "You know, Zhou Shu is very dangerous, with sharp edges and strong murderous intent. Coupled with the entanglement of Wanhun Sect, it is difficult to get a good result from getting involved with him, and we have already received benefits, so Don’t worry about him anymore to avoid any trouble.”

"He is not like what you said. I learned more from him than I did in Bai Yujing."

You Chongzhi stared at his second brother and said dissatisfied, "You are crossing the river and burning the bridge."

You Pizhi unconsciously shook his head, looked at the moving crowd outside the window, and said slowly, "Oh, in his eyes, maybe we, Bai Yujing and Linglong Pavilion, are the bridge."

"I'm too lazy to tell you, I can't even understand you."

You Chongzhi picked up the wine bottle and poured it down.

You Pizhi looked at him, smiled and said, "Fourth brother, that woman is very extraordinary, you know that, right?"

You Chongzhi raised his head and curled his lips, "Of course I know that she is born with an Ice Immortal body and a very good talent, but so what? Oh, I understand, second brother, you don't want to win her over to Bai Yujing. Right? It’s a good idea, but other people must be willing to do it.”

You Pizhi shook his head, "I don't have such an idea, and Linglong Pavilion probably won't either."

You Chongzhi was stunned, "Is this strange? It's too late for both families to snatch a true immortal with such a talent. You still don't want it?"

You Pizhi sighed slightly, "But it's different when one person is involved."

"one person?"

You Chongzhi paused for a moment, as if he understood something, "Brother Dao Zhou, is she someone of Brother Dao Zhou?"

He looked down the window, and saw the woman walking slowly in the crowd, raising her head from time to time, looking nervous and alert, and there were many eyes around her also falling on her, some of which were so naked that it was obvious that she was not pregnant. kindness.

"good."

You Pizhi also looked at the woman and said slowly, "According to Wu Fangcheng's investigation, she is Zhou Shu's sister, but in fact she shouldn't be. However, the two are very close and they once lived together in Zhibaoxuan. It’s been a long time, she came here this time, probably to see Zhou Shu.”

You Chongzhi stood up and said, "Then I have to go down. If she wanders around like this, she will be deceived soon. If something happens, how will she explain to Brother Zhou? We won't even be friends in the future."

"Actually nothing will happen."

You Pizhi didn't stop him, "Then go ahead, but don't do too much. Just bring it to Shangqingju. Don't worry about other things, fourth brother."

"Is Brother Zhou Dao still there?"

You Chongzhi turned around, with a lot of expectation in his eyes.

You Pizhi smiled and shook his head, "Not here."

"I knew that if I were here, you would definitely not let me go."

You Chongzhi snorted and rushed downstairs.

You Pizhi picked up the wine glass and shook his head slightly, "It's not that I won't let you go, fourth brother, but the situation is beyond our control. It's better to have one less thing than to do more. Who knows what will happen in the future. People like Zhou Shu can only stay at a distance. It’s the safest.”
