After washing up, Zhou Xu started preparing breakfast.
During this period, I looked at Qiu Qian's room. The door was closed and there were spiritual energy fluctuations.
If my guess is correct, it should be advanced.
I need a seventh-level fighter.
The strength is rising quickly, and the three bosses should also be promoted in the near future.
I just don’t know how many.
He took out dumplings and steamed buns from the refrigerator, planning to steam them and eat them with mustard.
If he is busy, he plans to learn ancient Chinese.
Steaming also takes time.
"If I had known earlier, I should have steamed it before brushing my teeth to save time."
Zhou Xu picked up the study materials and thought about it.
But before I even opened the book, my phone rang.
It's dad.
"Hey dad." Zhou Xu put the phone to his ear, supported it with his shoulder, and flipped through the materials with his hand.
"Are you awake?" It was indeed Zhou Ran's voice.
"Well, have you had breakfast with mom?"
"Your mother is preparing. The book has been obtained for you and is being sent to you.
But it won’t be sent out so quickly this time, please tell your sister later.”
"Tell Sister Yue?" Zhou Xu was quite puzzled: "Does dad have a bad relationship with Sister Yue? Why don't you call her and tell her yourself?"
"Isn't Xiaoyue sleeping early in the morning?" Zhou Ran said the reason.
Zhou Xu: "..."
I don’t have to sleep when I write?
Being treated differently, the son no longer cares about his feelings when he grows up.
Ha~
"By the way, I just checked. Didn't you get the money back?" Zhou Ran suddenly asked.
"..." Zhou Xu immediately closed the book and took his mobile phone, and said seriously:
"Dad, I was making breakfast and I hung up. I was busy."
Without waiting for a response, Zhou Xu hung up the phone.
How can I get the money back?
After all, he is also the young boss of the hotel.
At this time, his cell phone rang again, and it was his dad again.
It seems that one thousand yuan is not guaranteed.
"Dad, what's the matter?" Zhou Xu answered the phone and asked.
"It's me." It was my mother's voice.
"Mom, Qiu Qian and I are making steady progress." Zhou Xu reported the answer directly.
I shouldn’t ask again, right?
"I'm not asking you this, we have informants who know the situation.
Now I want you to come back in a few days and meet relatives you have never met before." Liu Nansi said.
relative?
Zhou Xu was a little surprised.
Speaking of which, he really hasn't met any relatives. Others visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, but he celebrates the Chinese New Year...
In fact, he doesn’t have much time to spare, his parents will take him around.
Although it is not very far, it is still very interesting to celebrate the New Year.
When I grew up, I didn’t go out much.
My son is older and I don’t have a daughter to love him.
My daughter still looks like an eight-year-old and can act like a spoiled brat.
but...
This is home. Do your parents think that the town is your hometown now?
"When do you want to go back?" Zhou Xu asked.
He may not have time these days. The Fallen Corpse is coming and he has to try out the special effects.
The special effects have become more and more intense recently, and just four rings can make him burn like a flame.
Handsomeness is more handsome on the surface, low-key and connotative, not angry and self-defeating.
But a strong momentum still requires full firepower.
"They didn't say specifically when they would come. Anyway, it would be in a few days, and they would definitely come this month.
Be prepared.
Their children will also come by then.
Don't feel inferior." Liu Nansi said.
Zhou Xu: "......"
Mom, are you so unsure of your son?
But is the child from a relative's family the child from someone else's family that the parents say?
Looking back on the past, Zhou Xu felt that he should be considered someone else's child.
Don’t play games, study with peace of mind, and get a front row seat in exams every time.
Not even talking about love.
He is a disgusting child from other families in the eyes of his classmates, a good student in the eyes of his teachers, and a proud and good son in the eyes of his parents.
But what mom is talking about this time may be people from the cultivation world, so...
This achievement cannot be put on the table.
I'm too embarrassed to practice the martial arts secrets I learned before, as they have no special effects.
For a while, I couldn't find any advantages.
It seems that when the time comes, you should keep smiling and talk less.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Xu came to the kitchen and was almost ready.
"Ha~ What will Qiu Qian eat today?"
Zhou Ningyue rubbed her eyes and yawned as she walked out of the room.
Or a bear suit.
"Sister Yue, can your little bear suit be worn backwards?
Different attribute bonuses on the front and back." Zhou Xu asked as he put the steamed buns and dumplings on the table.
"No, but it's a good suggestion. I can go back and ask my father and mother to help me change it.
By the way, where is Qiu Qian?" Zhou Ningyue asked.
I haven’t seen Zhou Xu busy with breakfast for a long time.
"In the room." Zhou Xu pointed to Qiu Qian's room.
Zhou Ningyue walked over out of curiosity, then put her hand on the door to explore:
"I'm getting promoted, it seems to be going well."
Then she returned to the table and started eating.
"My dad said that the book has been sent over, but not so quickly. Let me tell you." Zhou Xu said.
Qiu Qian was promoted smoothly, and he was relieved.
Don't pay too much attention to it.
"Why didn't my dad just call me? Doesn't he love me anymore?" Zhou Ningyue looked at Zhou Xu pitifully and said:
"Sure enough, my son is more important."
Zhou Xu: "......"
And I have to avoid washing dishes.
"Sister Yue wants to ask you a question." Zhou Xu changed the topic directly and showed the picture that Li Luoshu sent to Sister Yue:
"Is this a formation?
Can you solve it?"
Zhou Ningyue looked at it and felt a little strange:
"Who gave this to you? You sent it to me. I have a lot of leisure time eating fruit. I can use it to kill time."
"A friend who is going on a blind date sent it to me. He is very good." Zhou Xu said with some admiration.
Having a girlfriend who can let off steam is really admirable.
But isn’t Sister Yue very busy?
Seven forty-five.
After Zhou Xu read ancient literature materials for a long time, he went out to work.
Before going out, he glanced at Qiu Qian's door, and it seemed that he might not be able to get out for a while.
...
Work was as peaceful as ever today.
Just when he was eating at noon, he saw a crow flying in the sky.
This made him feel a little strange. There were basically no crows in Qingcheng.
And it won't appear here.
Weird.
He used a coin to knock the crow down.
Then the crow rotted.
It’s not like he beat it to rot. He is very experienced in killing wild beasts. I can roughly guess when the meat rotted.
This crow has been rotting for at least a month.
Not a normal crow.
"Fallen corpse?"
I've only heard of this recently, and it seems to fit the bill.
"Walking to the countryside tonight? Just enough to consume some energy."
There is no news from the Earth God Dog, which means that the fallen corpses have not arrived yet, but some of the lone ones may not be there yet.
Take a walk.
After that, he went back to work, but received a message from Qiu Qian halfway.
"I have been promoted successfully and am now a seventh-level fighter. There is no surprise at all.
Remember to come back early after get off work today." This was the message from Qiu Qian.
Zhou Xu was very happy to receive this news.
Qiu Qian would actually report to him that he was safe after being promoted successfully. In theory, promotion is risky, but he didn't know the specific risks. It would depend on the promotion of the spiritual energy group.
At that time, I will also give Qiu Qian a peace of mind.
Um, I'm all at home, so I don't think I need to report.
"Okay." He simply replied with one word, without asking the reason.
We'll go to the countryside tomorrow.
If you are not in a hurry, you can go to the countryside every day. There are not many opportunities for Qiu Qian to ask him to go back.
"No, something bad has happened." Just after replying to Qiu Qian, Zhou Xu saw the third boss running in from outside.
He looked panicked.
What makes the third boss care so much?
The third boss went directly into the lounge without stopping, probably to discuss.
But soon the third boss ran out again.
"Zhou Xu, do you know where the "Puppet Encyclopedia" is?" Su Shi ran and got ready to set off.
Zhou Xu took out a book from the table, made sure it was "The Encyclopedia of Puppetry", and handed it to Su Shi.
"We'll tell you when we find out." After saying this, Su Shi ran back.
puppet?
Is it also related to the fallen corpse?
He didn't pay too much attention and continued to read, reading some common sense in the world of cultivation.
To prevent being treated as a country bumpkin in the future.
After a long time, he was called to the rest room, and when he entered, he saw a crow lying on the formation.
"..."
The crow he shot was discovered.
"Things may be a bit troublesome." Han Su said.
"Yes, it's very troublesome and dangerous.
I've always heard that corpse-falling is dangerous." Su Shi nodded.
"Can a crow be sure?" Zhou Xu asked curiously.
He knew because the Earth God Dog told him.
"It's the second one, but we can't be sure about that one without checking it immediately, but this one does have the power to drop corpses, and it also fits the description." Han Su said.
Ming Nanchu put his phone on the table and said:
"Let's talk about a way. We can go to the countryside tonight to take a look, or go further to confirm the situation."
"If it is true, should we stop it?" Zhou Xu asked.
If they all go, wouldn't that mean they're robbing monsters?
"Actually, we are not strong enough. If it is a Fallen Corpse, it cannot be of the lower third level.
There should be one in the third grade, depending on their recovery level.
If not stopped, they may start the blood sacrifice.
The people in this city are very dangerous." Han Su said.
Zhou Xu didn't care about this. Wild animals were in danger, let alone these monsters.
"Is there no way?" Su Shi asked.
"Because this place is quite special, it's not suitable for us to move reinforcements. The people next door can't just take action unless absolutely necessary." Han Su was a little embarrassed.
Their cultivation levels are too weak.
"Actually, there is a way." Ming Nanchu leaned on the high chair and said:
"Have you forgotten who the ruler of this city is?"
"The Holy Son of Demonic Dao?" Han Su raised his glasses in surprise.
She seemed to have guessed it.
Zhou Xu was a little curious, what does this mean?
"Then what?" Su Shi asked.
"What Ming Nanchu means is that just because we can't deal with him, it doesn't mean that the Demonic Saint Son can't deal with him.
We can tell the Demonic Son about this matter. Targeting this city is tantamount to ignoring the majesty of the Demonic Son.
He will definitely take action." Han Su said with a smile.
Zhou Xu: "......"
Who is the villain here?
He has heard of villains deliberately looking for justice, but he has never heard of villains asking villains to come out to deliver justice.
At this time, shouldn’t I be the one who should be spared?
