Chapter 2404: Locust tide

? Central area, dome top tower.

On the top floor, an old man closed his eyes and muttered to himself, "Ou Ting, how did you agree to help him build a sword? Is he really from that world? Even Long Jin has been used, he is really real Did you start with Yucheng? This sword, this guy, what do you want..."

"Report!"

A voice came from below.

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

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

Xu Ying said in a condensed voice, "City Lord, recently more and more migratory locusts have been monitored outside. 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 see, I will send the order later, you are waiting below."

"Yes."

The ghost soon disappeared.

"A little earlier than in previous years, this world is really changing, alas..."

The old man slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were bright, his gaze turned as if he was tens of thousands of miles away, and then Zhou Shu, who had crossed the boundary, suddenly froze, as if he was staring at something, and quickly opened his eyes.

The old man looked away and smiled faintly, "Let's take a look again."

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

Crescent City.

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

"Doesn't it come once every three hundred years? I remember the last locust tide came 270 years ago?"

"To be exact, it is two hundred and sixty-nine years, but this is not surprising. The time between the last and the last locust tide was only 281 years, and it does not seem to be three hundred years further up. The interval between each locust tide has become shorter."

"This is not a good thing, right?"

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

"It's not a good thing for Xiancheng, but for us practitioners, even if it is a good opportunity for experience, we can still make a fortune if we are lucky."

"That also depends on strength, like me, alas, only worry."

In a large restaurant, a few guests were drinking and chatting, some were worried, some were very happy.

Not far away, there was a woman sitting alone in front of the window, very curiously listening to other people's words, leaning on her, blinking, she seemed to say to herself, "They are talking about locust tides, what exactly is locust tide? ?"

"This sister, the locust tide is the locust tide."

Behind the woman, a teenager turned around, looked at the woman and nodded playfully.

Hearing the sound, the woman's eyes turned cold, but she was stunned when she saw the teenager, and quickly got up, "Sorry, senior, the junior interrupted me by accident."

The boy's expression changed when he noticed the woman's eyes, but he quickly smiled again, "You are welcome, my name is You Chongzhi."

The woman hesitated and said calmly, "Junior Zhou Ruo, I have seen Senior You."

You Chongzhi was stunned, "Zhou Ruo, surname Zhou again?"

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

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

The woman's expression was reserved, "No, the junior dare not to bother the senior."

You Chongzhi didn't say anything. He turned his head and said, "Senior on the left and senior on the right. It seems to be a lot of trouble to be a golden fairy. It's not as comfortable as before, and it's boring."

You Pizhi on the side jokingly said, "Fourth brother, do you have a crush on others?"

You Chongzhi shook his head and frowned, "I'm not interested, now I don't want to think about anything except for cultivation. Brother, what are you doing today to pull me out?"

"It's okay, just let you come out and relax, the fairy wine in Xiaolelou, we don't have any in Baiyu Kyoto."

You Pizhi looked at him and said with concern, "You have practiced too much now, too late, don't you know?"

"I am too lazy to drink."

You Chong looked at the wine glass with disgust, "It's all you said, I can only find him if I catch up with Brother Zhou Dao. What else can I do without practicing?"

You Pizhi said slowly, "You know, Zhou Shu is very dangerous. He has a sharp edge and is too intent to kill. With the entanglement of Ten Thousand Soul Sect, it is difficult to get a good result when it comes to getting involved with him, and we have already benefited. Don't worry about him anymore to avoid trouble."

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

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

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

"I'm too lazy to talk to you, but I don't understand."

You Chongzhi picked up the hip flask and poured it all at once.

You Pizhi looked at him, smiled and said, "Four brother, that woman is very unusual, do you know?"

You Chongzhi raised his head and curled his lips, "Of course I know that she is born with an ice fairy body and very talented, but what about it? Oh, I see, brother, you don’t want to draw her to Bai Yujing. Right? It's a good idea, but it must be willing."

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

You Chongzhi was taken aback for a moment, "This is weird? For such a talented fairy, it is too late for the two families to grab it, don't you want it?"

You Pizhiwei sighed, "But it's different if it involves one person."

"A person?"

You Chongzhi stagnated, as if he had understood something, "Brother Zhou Dao, is she who belongs to Brother Zhou Dao?"

He looked down the window, the woman was 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 them were too Chiguo. kindness.

"Not bad."

You Pizhi also looked at the woman and said slowly, "According to Wufangcheng's investigation, she is Zhou Shu's sister, but in fact she should not be, but the relationship between the two is very close. They once lived together at Zhibaoxuan. For a long time, when she came this time, she should have come to Zhou Shu too."

You Chongzhi stood up Then I have to go down. She wanders like this, and she will be cheated away soon. If something happens, how to tell Brother Zhou, even friends will do it in the future Not anymore. "

"In fact, nothing can happen."

You Pizhi didn't stop him, "Then you go, but don't do too much, just take it to Shangqing Residence, don't worry about other things, brother."

"Brother Zhou Dao is still there?"

You Chongzhi turned around, with many expectations in his eyes.

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

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

You Chongzhi snorted and rushed downstairs quickly.

You Pizhi picked up the wine glass and shook his head slightly, "It's not that you are not allowed to go, brother, but the situation is beyond our control. It is better to do less than one thing. Who knows what will happen in the future? People like Zhou Shu can only stay away. It's the most secure."
