The huge dragon head was entangled with dark chains. The end of the chain seemed to be deeply embedded in the skull, showing a dark red color, as if it had been completely adhered to the flesh and blood, and the other end was connected to the depths of the ground.
With a loud crashing sound, the chain suddenly tightened, as if it would be broken at any time, but in the end it fulfilled its mission, making it impossible for the dragon head to make any further progress.
The dragon head had no intention of breaking free, but stared at Bai Mo not far away with two huge blue eyeballs.
Bai Mo also looked at it with a calm expression.
The two people's eyes met, neither one said anything, and the air was dead silent.
"You have a familiar smell."
After a while, Longtou was the first to break the silence, his voice like terrifying thunder, "You swallowed my flesh and blood... right?"
This is not something worth concealing. Bai Mo nodded and said, "Yes, just as you told me, I found the Dead Night Grass in your body and restored some strength."
"So that's it, everything seems to be going well."
"You seem a little disappointed?"
"What have I to be disappointed about?"
The leader shook his head and asked, making the chain rattle.
Bai Mo narrowed his eyes. He had been observing the other person from the moment the dragon head appeared. The guy just twitched his nose, and then there was a trace of confusion in his eyes, as if he had discovered something that was difficult for him to understand -
Although it quickly restrained its gaze, it was still keenly captured by Bai Mo.
What is it wondering about?
After a pause, Longtou continued: "According to the agreement, I successfully helped you regain your strength - in this case, you should also complete what you promised me."
Bai Mo was silent for a long time.
"What, are you going to regret it?"
Longtou's voice was calm. Although he was questioning, there was no anger in his tone.
"You helped me regain my strength. Logically speaking, I should light the spell to free you, but..."
Bai Mo stared into Longtou's eyes and said word by word, "You seem to be hiding a lot of things from me..."
The leader laughed and said: "I have indeed concealed a lot of secrets, but there is no reason for me to tell you everything, right?"
"Having said that..."
"As far as I know, you are not someone who likes to break contracts."
Longtou interrupted Bai Mo's words, his voice getting colder.
Bai Mo said nothing.
...He was thinking, or hesitating.
He now has two charms on his body, one is naturally real, and the other is a fake created with false authentication.
Due to the characteristics of false authentication, although the fake talisman does not have any of the effectiveness that a real talisman should have, there is no flaw in the appearance and breath of the talisman, which is almost enough to confuse the fake with the real one——
What Bai Mo is thinking about now is whether he should hand over the real talisman to the other party.
This dragon head is very strange, its origin is unknown, its identity is full of doubts, and it is obvious that he is hiding something. It is difficult not to suspect that he may be planning something and using himself as a pawn.
If this is the case, handing over the fake charm to the other party may be a more prudent choice.
But as the other party said before, the leader is not obliged to tell everything to himself, and it is normal to have reservations.
So according to the agreement, of course he should hand over the real talisman to the other party.
Intuition tells Bai Mo that the choice in this matter is very important and may affect the direction of certain events. The final decision must be made after repeated weighing.
Facing Bai Mo's silence, Longtou didn't mean to urge him. He just waited quietly, his eyes were extremely deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
He has been waiting for tens of thousands of years, so there is no need to rush for just a moment, let alone a few minutes, even if he waits for a few hours, it doesn't matter.
Finally, Bai Mo on the other side spoke.
He looked up at the dragon head and said calmly: "According to the agreement, I will hand over the talisman to you, but as for the step of burning it, you need to complete it yourself. I will leave here before that."
At this time Bai Mo has made the final choice - to hand over the fake talisman to Longtou.
This is the most conservative decision. As for what will happen to this dragon head in the future, he doesn't care. It's just a fake charm. I don't think anything bad will happen to him. At most, it should just let this guy get relief later...
Bai Mo will visit here again soon. If he really wrongly blames this guy, he will be willing to bear his anger.
"It seems you don't trust me."
Longtou seemed to hear Bai Mo's thoughts from his words and said in a deep voice.
Bai Mo's expression remained unchanged: "How do you expect me to believe a prisoner who is chained by someone unknown?"
"It's not that those who are bound by chains are called prisoners. Your knowledge is a bit shallow..." Longtou shook his head, "But I understand your concerns, so I am willing to accept your plan."
Bai Mo studied its expression for a while, then took out a yellow talisman paper from his arms.
This drawing was unremarkable, but as soon as it appeared, it immediately attracted all the attention of the dragon head. It stared at the talisman blankly, as if it had seen the seeds of hope, and did not look away for a long time.
"I have been waiting in the dark underground for an unknown amount of time... and finally I have waited."
It sighed with emotion, and its tone was complex and difficult to understand.
The shadow under Bai Mo's feet squirmed, spreading behind him, and soon pushed to both sides along the crack of the secret room door, opening the secret room door to a gap for one person to pass through.
The next moment, the talisman flew out of his hand and flew towards the dragon head like a flying knife.
The dragon head's eyes narrowed slightly, and an invisible position appeared in front of it instantly, causing the spell to stay in mid-air.
Excitement flashed in its Gujing Wubo eyes, and it manipulated the talisman to come to him and moved its nose.
"That's right...that's the smell."
Seeing that the spell was true, Longtou finally breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his eyes and glanced in the direction of the secret room door. Bai Mo's figure had disappeared——
He left here as soon as he threw the spell.
The dragon head didn't pay attention. All its attention at this time was on the talisman in front of it. After looking at it carefully for a long time, it blew out a breath, and sparks suddenly appeared from the corner of the talisman, and then expanded rapidly.
Under the gaze of the dragon head, the spell was quickly burned away.
…
Bai Mo was very fast and quickly ran towards the exit of the underground passage.
When he left the exit and came to the ground through the "Open Sesame" spell, there was a faint and terrifying roar behind him. At the same time, the ground seemed to be shaking, as if something was furious.
It seems that guy has discovered something is wrong...
Bai Mo thought.
However, the dragon head can only release some power in the underground space at most and cannot interfere with the ground, so it is not something to be afraid of.
"Running so fast, why does it sound like you did something bad?"
The sunlight outside the exit was a bit dazzling.
As soon as Bai Mo raised his head, he heard a contemptuous voice ringing in his ears, and he knew without looking that the person speaking must be Yang Yiyi.
He turned his head, and sure enough, he saw Yang Yiyi folding her arms on her chest, pretending to look away casually, her expression slightly relaxed, as if she was secretly relieved.
This sound quickly attracted the attention of others, and everyone noticed Bai Mo appearing on the ground, with joyful smiles on their faces.
"Brother Baiwu, are you okay?"
Zhang Rouzhu quickly came over and kept observing Bai Mo's condition, appearing very concerned.
Yang Yiyi curled her lips and said: "This guy has rough skin and thick flesh, almost like a wild boar. What can happen to him?"
Her tone sounded very disdainful.
Zhang Rouzhu frowned. This guy had been speaking ill of Brother Bai Wu ever since they left the underground passage. Unexpectedly, he still refused to let go.
She couldn't help but retort: "If you want to say that you are thick-skinned, you have to look at you. You can actually pretend to be a man for so long without showing any flaws... If nothing else, you must have an extraordinarily thick soul in your heart, right?"
Yang Yiyi raised her eyebrows, how could she not understand what this guy meant - this woman was clearly saying that she looked like a man!
In the past, she might not have cared about it at all, but now she suddenly lost her temper and sneered: "So what if you have a thick soul? It's better than someone dragging a fat bottle of soul."
Yang Yiyi's face turned pale and she said angrily: "You are the one who is dragging you!"
Yang Yiyi smiled and said: "Oh, I'm so anxious, some people insist on taking their seats. It seems that our little dragster is in a hurry."
Zhang Tao on the side saw his sister's ugly expression and couldn't help but retorted: "You are not allowed to say that about my sister!"
"Shut the fuck up."
Yang Yiyi glanced at him lightly and said, "Where do you think you are going to go... a big oil bottle."
Zhang Tao's expression froze and he wanted to refute but did not speak.
Zhang Rouzhu's chest heaved and he scolded: "That's too vulgar, you man woman!"
"Little oil bottle."
"Manly bitch!"
"Little oil bottle."
"Manly bitch!"
"Little oil bottle."
"..."
Wen Ziya on the side smiled bitterly and looked at Zhang Tao. The two of them tried to dissuade the two people from quarreling, but it had no effect at all.
"That's enough."
At this moment, Bai Mo's slightly indifferent voice sounded on the grass.
And these two extremely simple words were more effective than Zhang Tao's long-term dissuasion, and they instantly made Yang Yiyi and Zhang Rouzhu shut their mouths at the same time.
They snorted coldly and turned their heads at the same time.
Bai Mo looked at the entrance to the underground being closed and said calmly: "You guys are quite leisurely. Such a trivial matter can cause a quarrel."
"It's not like this troll is looking for trouble first." Yang Yiyi curled her lips and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't care about this kind of thing at all."
"you……"
Zhang Rouzhu's face turned cold, and the war that had subsided seemed to be reigniting.
Bai Mo glanced at Yang Yiyi, shook his head and said: "To me, you are also a dragster."
Yang Yiyi's face turned red. Although it seemed that this was indeed the case, she was still unconvinced. She pinched her neck and said, "But I saved your life!"
"Rou Zhu also saved my life."
After a pause, Bai Mo continued, "I will do my best to repay those who have been kind to me - so before I leave, I hope you will not have unnecessary quarrels like this again."
Are you leaving?
Yang Yiyi's expression was stagnant, but she still looked unconvinced and said loudly: "Don't worry, I will definitely not quarrel with this little dragster in the future, and I won't live with you anyway!"
She looked around, as if looking for her cart and preparing to leave.
"It's up to you, but if someone wants to live, he may have to live with us temporarily..." Bai Mo said calmly.
"What's the meaning?"
"Why should we let her live with us?"
Yang Yi and Zhang Rouzhu spoke almost at the same time.
"It will take time to recover from your injuries."
Bai Mo first reminded Yang Yiyi, and then explained the agreement between him and Yang Yiyi to Zhang Tao.
He did not mention the taboo sequence, but used "seriously injured" to describe Yang Yiyi's current condition.
The Zhang Tao brothers were kind-hearted people. Although they were very dissatisfied with Yang Yiyi's status as a liar, since Bai Mo had made an agreement with the girl and the latter had indeed helped them in the tunnel, they did not refuse the matter.
Zhang Rouzhu sighed: "Well, I still have some healing medicine there, which may have some effect on her... But once this guy is healed, he must leave our house immediately!"
Yang Yiyi said disdainfully: "Humph, it sounds like I rarely want to stay with you."
Although she said this, almost everyone present could see that there was some movement in her eyes.
"Well, in today's world, it is a very happy thing to be able to find someone trustworthy to hug together for warmth...and no matter what, you have to heal your injuries first, right?"
At this moment, Wen Ziya, who had been silent all this time, spoke, seemingly planning to give Yang Yiyi a step down.
Yang Yiyi showed disdain, but she climbed along the pole, looked at Bai Mo and said fiercely: "Huh, if you don't cure me, I will always rely on you and eat your food every day!"
Bai Mo glanced at her and said calmly: "Of course, you can eat whatever you want, but help is mutual - I remember you have drinks there, why don't you bring a few bottles over for everyone to drink?"
What's this guy's tone? He treats me like his little brother!
Yang Yiyi widened her eyes and said: "You are so shameless. You haven't fulfilled what you promised me, but instead you asked me for something first!"
Bai Mo seemed not to hear her words and asked everyone: "Are you thirsty?"
Yang Yiyi gritted her teeth and greeted Bai Mo's eighteen generations of ancestors in her heart, and then asked fiercely: "What are you drinking!"
"I remember there was green tea."
"Damn guy, he really knows about green tea, bah!"
Yang Yiyi cursed and walked to her trolley, then came back with a few bottles of drinks and distributed them to everyone with a look of reluctance.
"These drinks can be sold for a lot of money, but they were all wasted on you today." She muttered something, seemingly in pain.
"Coke, thank you."
Seeing Yang Yiyi coming over, Zhang Rouzhu stretched out his hand in embarrassment.
"Juice, drink it if you like!"
Without even looking at Zhang Rouzhu's expression, Yang Yiyi forced a bottle of juice to her, and then threw the green tea in front of Bai Mo.
However, she was still a little afraid of Wen Ziya, a beautiful woman. After all, she looked terrifying before and was also very powerful.
So she had the best attitude towards Wen Ziya. She reached out and handed over the juice: "Ice."
"Thanks."
Wen Ziya smiled softly and took the drink with her white and slender hands. The smile on her face was particularly charming. The charm from the inside out and the woman Yang Yiyi were a little hard to resist.
She shook her head quickly.
Not long after, everyone was sitting on the grass, drinking iced drinks in silence, feeling the warmth of the sun, and feeling relieved.
Bai Mo looked into the distance silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
"I haven't had a drink for a long time since the restricted area was expanded."
After a short period of silence, Zhang Tao let out a heartfelt sigh.
And these words were like a drop of cold water, instantly bringing everyone back to reality, and they suddenly recalled their current situation——
In fact, let alone drinks, even eating may be a problem for most people who are barely surviving in the buffer zone today.
The reason why Yang Yiyi was able to obtain these things was just because she took some off-beat routes. She was not qualified to enter the city, otherwise she would not be a liar.
"That's true." Wen Ziya said, "The expansion of the restricted area has changed a lot of things."
As she spoke, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, as if she was lamenting the fact that all her brothers died at her hands.
Bai Mo glanced at her and said: "The desireless grass seed in your body has been removed. You are free now. What are your plans next?"
"I didn't expect you to be curious about my whereabouts."
Wen Ziya was a little surprised, then smiled and said, "Although my strength has declined with the elimination of the boundless grass species, it can be regarded as touching the threshold of A-level - so I plan to continue to explore this world, so as to
We can also return to level A as soon as possible.”
At this point, her eyes gradually became cold, "After that, I will definitely find that guy named Wuyu and make him pay with blood."
"If you want that guy to pay for his debt with blood... A-level is not enough."
Bai Mo took a sip of green tea, and the faint sweetness and tea fragrance spread in his mouth.
"Forget it's not enough." Wen Ziya smiled, especially free and easy.
"So you're leaving?"
"Well, I've been away from the crowd for too long. I think maybe I need to get to know the world again."
Wen Ziya stared into Bai Mo's eyes and said seriously, "I can see that you are not an ordinary person, so I'm afraid I can't repay you now. If you need me one day, I will definitely find you and do my best to repay you."
you."
Bai Mo thought for a while: "Actually, you can repay me now."
"Oh?" Wen Ziya thought for a moment, and a charming smile suddenly appeared on her face, "Do you want me to commit myself to you?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Wen Ziya's smile at this moment was so charming, like a rose blooming in the night, giving people endless reverie.
Yang Yiyi gritted her teeth and secretly cursed this woman for being shameless.
Bai Mo's eyes were clear: "That's not true."
"That's such a pity. In fact, if you ask me, I'm really willing to commit myself..." Wen Ziya brought her face closer, her red lips pressed against Bai Mo's ear, and breathed into his face.
.
"...Mr. 'The Most Terrible Taboo'."
Shameless, shameless, so shameless!
Yang Yiyi was so angry that her teeth itched.
Bai Mo was unmoved and said: "I remember that you have the ability to control plants, so I would like to trouble you to help us build a house here."
Zhang Rouzhu looked away from Wen Ziya's face and seemed to realize something, wondering: "Why build a house here? Are we going to live here in the future?"
"Well, this place is much safer than your previous gathering place." Bai Mo said.
This is indeed his plan.
He couldn't stay here forever, and before leaving, he wanted to let the Zhang Tao brothers and sisters live a stable life.
Brother and sister Zhang Tao did not hesitate for too long and quickly agreed to his choice.
"Of course it's no problem. If there are a few people here in this market from now on, it won't be deserted - maybe you can even continue to open the market if you are willing."
