The sound of flames burning flesh was heard, and the aroma of meat filled the air.
Uncle Peng's still bleeding wound stopped bleeding instantly.
However, the bloody appearance is not much better than before.
"Uncle! Uncle Peng and I saved you, why do you want to retaliate for kindness!"
Cao Yue roared angrily.
Zhou Shu had already retracted his hand, with a look of exhaustion on his face.
He smiled bitterly in his heart. In order to frighten a few ordinary villagers, he slightly mobilized his momentum, but as a result, his injuries worsened.
Who would have thought that Zhou Shu would also have such a day?
If these ordinary villagers were in the past, he would stare them to death at a glance.
"I'm saving him."
Zhou Shu said patiently.
If it were anyone else, Zhou Shu wouldn't talk so much nonsense.
But no matter what, Cao Yue is his savior.
Zhou Shu was still very patient with him.
"If his wound doesn't stop bleeding, it's bleeding and it will kill him."
Zhou Shu said seriously, "Stop the bleeding first so that we can have time to treat Uncle Peng slowly."
"This——"
Cao Yue is just an ordinary mountain village boy with little knowledge.
What Zhou Shu said seems to make sense.
"Then what should we do next?"
Cao Yue said in a panic.
He has never experienced this kind of thing before, and the person closest to him is still in crisis.
He simply doesn't know what to do.
"Who are you?"
A villager also came to his senses, stared at Zhou Shu, and asked in a deep voice.
He was holding a hatchet that he had taken out from nowhere in his hand, and was staring at Zhou Shu with eager eyes.
"Me?"
Zhou Shu said lightly, "You can call me Wuming."
"Village chief, Uncle Peng and I picked it up in the back mountain."
Cao Yue said while wiping his tears.
"Who are you? What do you want when you come to Zhu Rongtian?!"
When the village chief heard what Cao Yue said, instead of relaxing, he stared at Zhou Shu and asked.
His right hand holding the hatchet had begun to tremble slightly. Although the expression on his face was serious, the panic in his eyes was still clearly visible.
"What did you say?"
Zhou Shu was stunned for a moment, and then a strange flame appeared in his pupils.
An invisible aura rose in the hearts of everyone. Everyone felt as if they had encountered a natural enemy, and even their breathing became a little heavier.
However, in an instant, the invisible momentum disappeared, which made them doubt what they felt just now, as if it was an illusion.
They looked at Zhou Shu. At this moment, Zhou Shu looked like an ordinary person who had been seriously injured. There was no terrifying aura at all.
"Village chief, what do you mean? I just encountered a strong enemy and fell into Jieqiao Village by chance. I am not a bad person."
Zhou Shu said calmly.
Before, he had learned a lot of things from Cao Yue's mouth.
The only thing he didn't expect before was that this place would be Zhu Rongtian!
He fought against the Black Emperor of Xuan Mingtian in Xuan Mingtian, but ended up falling to Zhu Rongtian. This is really incredible.
But in front of these people, Zhou Shu would definitely not admit that he was not from Zhu Rongtian!
He now has no ability to protect himself. Once his identity is revealed, he cannot say that he is safe even in his ancestral land, let alone in Zhu Rongtian.
He remembers that someone told him at the beginning that Zhu Rongtian's Emperor and the Black Emperor Xuanmingtian had an irreconcilable relationship.
If you let him know your identity, the consequences can be imagined.
So for Zhou Shu, the best choice is to pretend to be a person from Zhu Rongtian.
Fortunately, Zhu Rongtian's people are different from Xuan Mingtian's people. Their appearance is the same as that of the human race. If there is any difference, it is that their faces are red.
But this is not a big problem for Zhou Shu now.
Zhou Shu had previously spontaneously ignited the Divine Weapon Map, and his body was also burned by the flames. At this moment, his whole body was covered with bandages, and his face could not be seen at all.
"Since you are from Zhu Rongtian, why don't you have a last name?"
The village chief shouted in a stern tone, "Hiding your head and showing your tail, who are you?"
Zhou Shu frowned slightly in his heart. Although he had tried a lot of information from Cao Yue before, Cao Yue had too little experience and didn't know much about the world.
So Zhou Shu is still confused about what the village chief said, but it is conceivable that there must be some things he doesn't know.
"Village chief, uncle, if he meets his enemies, he definitely can't tell us his real name. Otherwise, what if his enemies find out and come to kill him?"
Cao Yue's eyes were dim with tears, but he still couldn't help but raise his head and said.
The stories he heard from the storyteller were all told like this.
Zhou Shu gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Cao, you are still smart."
"Village Chief, the reason why I don't tell you my real name is really difficult."
Zhou Shu said sincerely, "But please believe that I am not a bad person."
"Uncle Peng and Little Brother Cao are my saviors, and it is absolutely impossible for me to harm them."
He said it very sincerely, but the village chief still didn't put down the hatchet in his hand.
"I don't believe you!"
The village chief said without mercy.
"You leave Jieqiao Village now!"
The village chief's back is slightly arched, like a hungry wolf ready to prey on prey.
Zhou Shu smiled bitterly in his heart, it is true that this is an ordinary small mountain village, and it is true that there are no powerful warriors.
But the mountain people here are also very brave.
Although this village chief seemed extremely weak to Zhou Shu, it was undeniable that these mountain people, who made a living by hunting, were still very lethal to ordinary people.
If Zhou Shu is really an ordinary person, if he doesn't leave here, he will probably die under the knife of the village chief.
However, Zhou Shu is not an ordinary person.
Even if the tiger falls in peace, not all dogs can bully it.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Zhou Shu was seriously injured to this extent, it would be impossible for an ordinary person to kill him with a hatchet.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
If you want to kill him, you must at least be a top-notch warrior.
Thinking of this, he was also a little helpless.
Under normal circumstances, even if he is seriously injured, his physical body should not be affected.
Even if the body of a master of eighty-nine profound arts is standing still, it is not something that ordinary people can move.
But he had spontaneously ignited the Divine Weapon Map before, and at that time he himself was ignited by the mysterious flame contained in the Divine Weapon Map.
His current physical strength seems to have been burned away by the mysterious flame.
Of course, even so, if he wanted to kill the village chief, there were ten thousand ways.
However, Zhou Shu is not a murderous person, and the village chief is not a mortal evil person.
Just when he was about to speak, Uncle Peng, who was lying on the stretcher, suddenly groaned.
"Village Chief——"
An almost inaudible cry came from his mouth.
The village chief frowned slightly, but still took a step forward and approached Uncle Peng.
"Brother Peng——"
The village chief whispered while staring at Zhou Shu with a vigilant face, never putting down the hatchet in his hand.
"Village chief, he is an old friend of mine and I can trust him."
Uncle Peng's voice was very low. If the village chief hadn't been in front of him, he might not have been able to hear what he was saying.
Zhou Shu's ears moved slightly, and a light flashed in his eyes.
He naturally knew in his heart that he had never seen this Uncle Peng, let alone known him.
Now Uncle Peng actually told the village chief that Zhou Shu was his old friend...
Zhou Shu had some doubts in his heart, why did Uncle Peng help him like this?
Hearing Uncle Peng's words, the village chief frowned and said in a deep voice, "Brother Peng, are you sure?"
"Village Chief, although I am old and decrepit, I am not blind yet."
Uncle Peng said, his voice getting weaker and weaker. He was seriously injured, and he could not continue to speak these few words.
"Okay, Brother Peng, I believe you and let him stay in Jieqiao Village temporarily."
The village chief gritted his teeth and said, "Stop talking now. I have sent someone to find a doctor. You will be fine!"
The village chief's concern for Uncle Peng was genuine, and the anxiety in his eyes could not deceive anyone.
Uncle Peng nodded slightly, unable to speak.
Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes slightly.
He could see that although Uncle Peng's wound was no longer bleeding, his injury was very serious, and Zhou Shu did not think that the doctor in this mountain village could cure him.
If it can’t be cured...
Zhou Shu felt hesitant. Uncle Peng was his savior, and he had lied to him just now for some unknown purpose.
Regardless of whether Zhou Shu wants to admit it or not, he has accepted Uncle Peng's favor.
Zhou Shu has never owed anything to anyone in his life, and naturally he doesn't want to owe Uncle Peng anything.
If this is the ancestral land, then Zhou Shu will not hesitate at all. After all, the ancestral land is his territory. Even if there are some people with ulterior motives, they will not do anything earth-shattering.
But this is Zhu Rongtian, and once his identity is revealed, he will most likely be hunted down by Emperor Zhu Rongtian.
In his current situation, let alone Zhu Rongtian's Emperor, any earthly immortal might kill him.
Once he really takes action to save Uncle Peng, he will most likely reveal his identity.
To save or not to save, that is the question.
"Where's the doctor? Why hasn't the doctor come yet?"
The village chief shouted anxiously.
"Uncle Peng!"
Cao Yue cried heartbrokenly.
Uncle Peng's breath is already very weak, and if you don't look carefully, you can't even see the rise and fall of his chest.
"Alas——"
Zhou Shu sighed inwardly, and if he dragged on any longer, Uncle Peng would really be dead.
"Village Chief, Brother Cao, please carry Uncle Peng into the house. I have a way to save him."
Zhou Shu finally made a decision.
"Really?"
Cao Yue said in surprise.
"You?"
The village chief looked suspicious.
"Village Chief, do you have a better way?"
Zhou Shu looked at the village chief and said, "Uncle Peng's situation cannot be delayed. Besides, even if the doctor comes, what do you think is the chance that the doctor can cure Uncle Peng?"
"Things have reached this point, village chief, are you still worried that I will be harmful to Uncle Peng?"
"If I really want to harm him, I just need to sit back and do nothing. Why stand up and ask for trouble?"
"To put it bluntly, Uncle Peng's current situation is like treating a dead horse as a live doctor. What's the worst result?"
"I'm sure I can save Uncle Peng. If I can't, I'm willing to risk my life for him!"
The village chief frowned. Zhou Shu had already talked to this extent, what else could he say?
In fact, he also knew that if it had been anyone else, Uncle Peng's wound would have been dead long ago.
Even if Brother Peng is stronger than the average person, he will most likely not be able to save himself from such a serious injury.
In this case, why not let the person in front of you give it a try?
What if?
What if he can rescue Brother Peng?
"Bring Brother Peng into the house!"
The village chief gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.
Several other villagers hurriedly lifted the stretcher and then carried Uncle Peng into the wooden house.
"You guys go out first."
Zhou Shu managed to walk back into the house, waved to the villagers, and said.
"You——"
The village chief said.
"You also go out."
Zhou Shu said, "If I want to save Uncle Peng, no outsiders can be present, otherwise I won't be able to save him."
"Village Chief, if you want Uncle Peng to die, you can delay it for some more time."
The village chief's expression changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You'd better rescue Brother Peng, otherwise, I won't let you go!"
He picked up the hatchet, turned around and walked out.
"Brother Cao, you should go out and wait first. Don't worry, Uncle Peng will be fine."
Zhou Shu said to Cao Yue that his attitude towards Cao Yue was completely different from that towards the village chief and others.
Cao Yue had no idea now. He could only place all his hopes on Zhou Shu.
"Plop——"
Cao Yue knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Zhou Shu.
"Uncle, I leave it to you, Uncle Peng!"
After Cao Yue finished speaking, he turned around and went out, closing the door with him.
"Uncle Peng, let me also call you Uncle Peng."
Zhou Shu moved to the bedside and whispered, "I know you can hear me. Your injuries were not caused by wild beasts."
Zhou Shu looked at Uncle Peng and said, "But it's not important. You have helped me save my life. I will definitely repay this kindness."
"Although I don't know why you told the village chief that I am your old friend, I still want to thank you."
"I don't know who you are, but if you save me, I will save you. As for the rest, let me take a gamble."
Zhou Shu seemed to be mumbling to himself. He slowly stretched out his finger, a white light glowed on his fingertip, and then landed on Uncle Peng's eyebrows.
Zhou Shu was seriously injured, his strength disappeared into thin air, and he couldn't gather even a trace of spiritual energy in his body. Naturally, he couldn't use spiritual energy to help Uncle Peng heal his injuries.
But this does not mean that he has no solution at all.
In fact, he has another way.
That is, magical power, unparalleled benevolence and righteousness!
He has unparalleled supernatural powers and benevolence, and will share one of Zhou Shu's cultivation skills with another person.
This sharing is not to take away Zhou Shu's cultivation and give it to another person, but to let another person have a cultivation equal to half of Zhou Shu's cultivation.
Moreover, the use of this magical power does not require spiritual energy.
Zhou Shu is unable to treat Uncle Peng's injuries now, but he can let Uncle Peng save himself.
A ray of white light enveloped Uncle Peng's body, and then Uncle Peng suddenly opened his eyes.
"Boom——"
A wave of momentum exploded from Uncle Peng, and the wooden bed beneath him shattered into countless sawdust.
I saw the muscles on Uncle Peng's body squirming, and the wound with almost visible internal organs began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Zhou Shu nodded slightly, as expected.
He used his unparalleled magical power, benevolence and righteousness, to share the realm of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques with Uncle Peng. This was equivalent to Uncle Peng suddenly mastering the Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques, and directly possessing half the strength of the Dacheng realm.
The eighty-nine mysterious skills, the physical body is unparalleled.
Zhou Shu's cultivation was so powerful back then that even if it was only half of his strength, this little trauma could be healed in an instant.
After a few breaths, the wound on Uncle Peng's chest had healed, leaving not even a trace.
He opened his eyes, looked down at his chest, and then looked up at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu didn't see any surprise in his eyes, as if he expected all this to happen.
Zhou Shu's expression did not change, he did not avoid Uncle Peng's eyes, but looked at him and said, "Uncle Peng, is your injury healed?"
"Already healed."
Uncle Peng stood up from the ground and nodded.
At this time, the shouts of Cao Yue and the village chief came from outside.
"Village Chief, Xiao Yue, I'm fine."
Uncle Peng raised his voice and said, "You guys wait outside for a moment. I will come out after I have healed the injury."
After speaking, Uncle Peng stepped lightly on his feet, and a soft white light enveloped the entire room.
Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Uncle Peng calmly.
He originally shared the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique with Uncle Peng with his unparalleled magical power of benevolence and righteousness. Naturally, he recognized the effect of this method. He was isolating the inside and outside. With this white light, no matter how loud the movement was in the room, there would be no sound outside.
Inaudible.
Uncle Peng is now isolating himself from the inside and outside. Obviously, he does not want the conversation between them to be heard by outsiders.
Zhou Shu was already mentally prepared for Uncle Peng's actions. From the first moment he saw Uncle Peng, he could tell that this Uncle Peng was different from the villagers here. He was not an ordinary person.
In addition, he helped Zhou Shu cover up in front of the village chief, which makes the problem even more clear.
However, Zhou Shu was not sure whether Uncle Peng was an enemy or a friend.
"Don't worry, I just don't want them to hear our conversation. They are ordinary people, and it is not good for them to know too much."
Uncle Peng looked at Zhou Shu and said calmly.
"So, you are not an ordinary person?"
Zhou Shu said calmly.
He saved Uncle Peng just because Uncle Peng saved him, it's that simple.
As for Uncle Peng's identity, it was not within Zhou Shu's consideration.
After all, he was still a little impulsive.
If it were a ruthless person, no matter whether Uncle Peng saved him or not, he would definitely not risk exposing his identity by using his supernatural powers and benevolence.
But Zhou Shu's character is like this. Even if he knows the danger, he is not willing to owe anyone.
Uncle Peng looked at Zhou Shu with an extremely complicated look in his eyes.
Suddenly, he knelt down on one knee, lowered his head in front of Zhou Shu.
"Peng Jiuyuan, a survivor of Heavenly Court, pays homage to your lord."
Uncle Peng touched his head to the ground and spoke slowly.
