Nine Star Burden - Chapter 643
Chapter 643: An unexpected joy
The two of them returned to Rong city and stayed the night at Xie Jinyan’s place. It was the same family room. Jiang Xiao naturally slept on the small bed while Han Jiangxue slept on the big bed.
This trip to Chengdu had further improved Jiang Xiao’s abilities. He almost laughed out loud when he slept at night, and he was in a particularly good mood.
Since he had arrived in this tourist city, Jiang Xiao decided to take a day out to have some fun and tour around.
At around 10 O’ clock the next day, Jiang Xiao finally woke up after a good night’s sleep. Although there wasn’t much danger during the journey of searching for the bamboo bear, it was indeed very tiring.
On the other hand, Han Jiangxue had already gotten up long ago. At this moment, she had already washed up and was sitting on the bed, playing with her mobile phone.
Jiang Xiao looked at the young lady who was focused on scrolling through her mobile phone and was not sure if she was playing with her mobile phone or doing some questions …
“You’re awake?”Jiang Xiao asked carefully.
Han Jiangxue turned around and glanced at Jiang Xiao before looking back at her mobile phone again. She said,””We don’t have much time. I’m planning to take the plane back to the capital tomorrow morning. Let’s not go to the distant scenic spots.
“There are also some tourist attractions in Chengdu. We’re in the Wuhou District. I’ve read the introduction on the internet. We can go to Jinli to take a look. It says that there are many snacks there.
Also, we can go to the Dufu cottage to take a look. What do you think?”
Jiang Xiao hurriedly got out of bed.”Sure, no problem. I’ll go wash my face and brush my teeth.”
The two of them got dressed, took an umbrella, put on their hats and masks, and set off in a hurry.
While the two of them were having fun, working and resting, the other Jiang Xiao did not have any “rest” but only “work”.
In the upper latitude, a Crow flew down from the sky and stopped at the top of a giant tree.
It had found another iconic terrain!
Under this huge tree was a cliff. Standing here and looking into the distance, it was a boundless snowfield.
Although this dimensional space was called the “snowfield,” there were not many real snowfield terrains, especially one that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Of course, the White ghouls and white Ghoul witches liked to live in the snow mountains and forests. They rarely came to the snowfield, which had no cover.
No matter if they were prey or Hunter, they were not willing to set foot in places without hiding.
Hence, in the eyes of the decoy Jiang Xiao, the boundless snowfield was equivalent to a safe zone.
The one-eyed Crow landed on the cliff and transformed back into its human form. Jiang Xiao then took out a white Ghoul skin from his bag as bait.
He held a pen made from the nails of white ghouls and used the blood of white ghouls as ink. He quickly drew the terrain on the White Ghoul leather paper.
Without Jiang Xiao’s help, he could only use this method to bait himself. However, it wasn’t a huge task because the terrain of the snowfield didn’t change rapidly and the frequency wasn’t as high. Besides, there were only a few types of terrain.
What was worth mentioning was that Jiang Xiao didn’t accept the gold quality star beads given by Hu Wei and Cang LAN.
Although they had thousands of white Ghoul and white Ghoul witch star beads in several large boxes, that was not a reason to waste them.
Jiang Xiao thought that if he could really find a way out one day, he might accept the couple’s kindness.
Of course, if that day really came, the upper latitude would also become Jiang Xiao’s backyard, where the resources would be inexhaustible …
Plop plop plop …
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, transformed into a shadow Crow again and flew away.
……
In the evening, the alley in Jinli was crowded with people. Jiang Xiao and Han Jiangxue each held a small bowl filled with glutinous rice and cold cakes and ate them while walking.
Why did he only come here at night? When they left the hotel in the morning, Jiang Xiao was attracted by the long line of restaurants across the street. Hence, the siblings went to line up to eat mapo tofu, Yuxiang shredded pork, and dried pot rabbit meat …
Fortunately, Han Jiangxue didn’t ask Jiang Xiao why he wanted to eat rabbits since they were so delicious …
Jiang Xiao had eaten three bowls of rice and was just full. Hence, the two of them went to Dufu cottage first.
Jiang Xiao initially thought that it was a cottage, but he later discovered that it was a Cultural Park. It was said that the real cottage was in the cultural Park and no one was allowed to approach it.
Jiang Xiao really wanted to see where the crime of “the children of the southern village bully the old and weak” had happened …
There were many poems in the cultural Garden, but Jiang Xiao could only remember a few of them. He could only remember the house.
That’s right, on one side of the boundary of Dufu’s cottage, there was a residential building just a tree away.
How rich must the people living there be … Well, how cultured?
It was only in the afternoon that the siblings came to Jinli to shop and eat.
Jiang Xiao, who had been wandering around for a long time, stopped in his tracks and stood in front of a small stall. He then said in a muffled voice,””What is this?”
Guokui?
Han Jiangxue was more direct and bought one immediately. She knew how stubborn Jiang Xiao was.
Jiang Xiao’s question was equivalent to asking Han Jiangxue to buy one for him, I want to eat it.
While waiting, Han Jiangxue waved at the stall beside her and finally saw a familiar snack.”Iron plate squid!
Han Jiangxue pointed at the squid that the young man was applying sauce on and said,””Take one,”
” 30 yuan,” the young man replied without even raising his head.
Jiang Xiao took the hot Guokui, removed his mask, and took a bite, only to be dumbfounded.
Han Jiangxue returned with the squid, only to see that Jiang Xiao was in a daze.
Han Jiangxue took two steps forward and asked with concern,””What’s wrong? It doesn’t suit your taste? Change to this?”
Han Jiangxue then handed the squid to Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao then began to chew on his food with a look of surprise on his face.
He had finally found it!
Back then, when the bait was still at gold-level, he had seen this small wooden house on the cliff when the White ghouls were chasing after him!
After bidding farewell to Hu Wei and his wife, Jiang Xiao, the bait, flew at high speed for more than half a month and finally found traces of humans again!
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, really didn’t expect to get such a surprise after crossing the endless snowfield and flying through the snow forest!
He only hoped that the small house wasn’t built by Hu Wei and his wife. Jiang Xiao had learned a lot of information from the previous exchanges with the couple and knew that they had once settled down on the cliff.
Plop plop plop …
The one-eyed Crow flew down and circled the wooden house. It sensed something and immediately landed on the wooden house.
There was actually someone in the room?
The one-eyed Crow closed its eyes and tilted its head slightly. It could feel … The one-eyed Crow suddenly opened its lonely eye and quickly flew away.
A ghostly figure opened the door and came out with a giant blade in his hand. He was still covered in the thick fur of the White Ghoul. With a swing of the giant blade, a scorching flame arc was thrown out and soared into the sky.
The one-eyed crow’s flying figure suddenly slanted to the side, dodging the flame arc that was extremely fast.
The ghostly figure below did not give up and chased after him quickly. The flame arcs formed a series. It was an ordinary silver quality STAR technique, but it gave the person the effect of a “machine gun”!
It was just like the axe storm that Wang Xingyan had used to solo-challenge him in the southwest!
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, dodged left and right, flew rapidly, and suddenly transformed into a human before landing on the ground steadily.
The ghostly Shadow’s movements paused for a moment. Under the snowstorm, the atmosphere fell into a strange silence.
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, drew his giant sword from his back and placed it in front of him.””Hello,” he said.
He finally had the chance to carefully size up the person in front of him.
This person’s clothes were a little strange. He was wearing a coat made of white Ghoul fur, which was not considered new. But the problem was, he had actually hollowed out the head of the White Ghoul?
The mysterious man used the White Ghoul’s huge head as a helmet and buckled it over his head with his fur coat.
The sharp teeth in the White Ghoul’s head had not been broken, and the White Ghoul’s mouth was wide open, revealing the mysterious man’s face. The “ghost helmet” looked extremely cool, and Jiang Xiao was stunned.
The man with the ghost helmet had a serious expression and a pair of Tiger-like eyes. He had a medium build and looked to be around 28 or 29 years old.
At this moment, Jiang Xiao confirmed the name of the person: Zhang songfu!
Inside the helmet, Zhang songfu sized Jiang Xiao up from head to toe and looked at the familiar Night Watch uniform. He was overwhelmed with emotions and asked loudly,””Serial number!”
Serial number?
Where did Jiang Xiao get the number?
Since they were both Guardians of the Night, Jiang Xiao should have a number so that the other party could be more certain of his identity. However, the problem was that Jiang Xiao was specially recruited to join the night guards and had directly become a light-chaser. He didn’t have a number and only had a code name.
The circular mask that Jiang Xiao was wearing made Zhang songfu even more wary.
Why did Zhang songfu and the HU Wei couple have completely different reactions?
This was because Zhang songfu’s method of entering the upper layer of the snowfield was different from others.
He had not entered the upper dimension through the holy ground.
Zhang songfu had fallen into a space-time Tunnel in the Northwest while fighting a foreign mercenary during the mercenary invasion of the snowfield in 2015!
“It seems like you’ve found the sword I left behind,” Jiang Xiao said.
“Night Watch number!” Zhang songfu said word by word.
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, said,”night watchman, Zhang songfu. Night watchman No. 386. Male, Han Chinese, Height 181cm. He was 26 years old when he went missing. Time of disappearance: September 2015. He was stationed in a small space-time Tunnel in the Northwest of the snowfield and fell into it with the invading mercenaries.”
Zhang songfu was immediately dumbfounded. He put down the giant sword in his hand and stared at the dumbfounded mask on Jiang Xiao’s face.
“You …” Zhang songfu’s words were somewhat hesitant.
“Where are the enemies?” Jiang Xiao asked.
“Kill them,” Zhang songfu said with a slight frown.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang songfu picked up the giant blade again and said, “I’ll say it one last time, your Night Watch number!”
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, shook his head and said,”Guardians of the Night, the light-chasing team.”
“Take off your mask!” Zhang songfu sneered.
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, was speechless.
A moment later, Zhang songfu charged forward with his saber. “You’re good at Chinese. ”
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, turned the giant sword in his hand and threw it at Zhang songfu, who was rushing towards him.
Want to try?
My saber technique is even better!
