Chapter 274 Two Hundred Years of Planning!
The black soil underground was continuously dug out, reaching a depth of fifty centimeters. Zhou Qing felt the difference after digging with a shovel.
Lost the shovel.
Squat down.
After groping for a while, Zhou Qing grabbed a handful of black sand and gravel underneath the black cloth.
These gravels, some as small as sesame seeds and some as large as fingernails, have irregular surfaces but have a corresponding luster, similar to pebbles washed by river water.
Zhou Qing circulated the Qi in his body, allowing his soul power to flow through his palms.
In an instant, the sand and gravel in Zhou Qing's palm jumped slightly, and they combined together to form short, crooked sticks of varying lengths and thicknesses.
Soul power can be conducted through it at an extremely fast speed with almost no significant loss.
"what is this?"
Zhou Qing looked at Romantina, hoping she could say something.
But Romantina shook her head: "I don't know him."
"Then I can only wait until tomorrow to ask Ning Rongrong."
Zhou Qing sighed and talked about the current situation again, "But this thing can transmit soul power at a very fast speed, and it is laid underground... This situation has already proved that the soul guide core formation of Luoxing City was planned by someone behind the scenes."
Considering the strange pattern shown on the distribution map, Zhou Qing suspected that if this formation was truly perfect, once activated, it would cause devastation to all the people in Luoxing City.
"What should we do now?" Xiao Wu asked.
"Of course, we have to destroy this magic circle!"
Romantina realized that this thing might affect the lives and safety of the entire Falling Star City, and immediately blurted out.
Although Falling Star City is not her birthplace, she is committed to becoming a great knight and wants to protect everything, so she will never remain indifferent.
"Zhou Qing, let's destroy the entire road!"
"Do you want to become a wanted criminal in Falling Star City?"
Zhou Qing put the gravel in his hand into the gray bag and rolled his eyes. "We don't know how much gravel is laid underneath, how wide it is, and how thick it is. How can we dig it out completely? Even if we really want to do that, we have to mobilize everyone in the city. With just a few of us, how long will it take?"
"Since someone has laid this kind of gravel that can conduct soul power, it proves that this magic circle has the nodes you mentioned that can be operated. We just need to destroy them, right?" Romantina's martial spirit possessed him, "I have the skill of spiritual detection. I should be able to find the one buried deep underground..."
"stop!"
Zhou Qing hurriedly interrupted Romantina's mental detection, "Why do you think I didn't let you use your spirit skills from the beginning, and instead came here to dig at night? It's because the target of our mission in Falling Star City is very likely to have a spirit-eating insect spirit, and is extremely sensitive to mental power!"
Tang San immediately grasped the point: "You mean, the Soul Sect we are hunting down is related to this matter?"
"He chose to come to Falling Star City instead of going to other places. It is suspected that he knew Darles six years ago, but it is also possible that he has been in Falling Star City for a long time." Zhou Qing nodded slightly, "We cannot deny this possibility. Moreover, in the past two hundred years, the city lords of Falling Star City have made corresponding plans for the city's roads and buildings... They all died of illness in the end... There must be a black hand behind the scenes controlling all this."
Romantina was surprised: "That person lived for more than two hundred years?"
“It’s not impossible.”
In the modern society of the previous life, there were people who were good at keeping in good health and were over 150 years old. In the Douluo Continent, there were things like martial spirits and soul power. If a soul master was good at keeping in good health and lived for a long time, it would not be difficult to live for more than 200 years. But Zhou Qing thought, "It is more likely that it is a plan of 'family inheritance'. Generation after generation of soul masters used the city lord of Falling Star City for more than 200 years to help their family build such a peculiar soul guide core array, and changed the aura of Falling Star City to what they wanted, and planned something..."
"That's really commendable perseverance!"
Tang San's tone was slightly sarcastic.
With this kind of perseverance and knowledge, wouldn't it be good to study the real martial spirit knowledge? After three or four generations, there will always be gains, enough to make the family grow step by step.
Zhou Qing did not express any opinion. He just asked everyone to pile the soil back into the pit and then put the blue bricks back one by one.
Even though a brick is broken, after putting it back together, ordinary people will not notice whether the bricks under their feet are cracked...
Silent all night.
The morning light peeked out from the clouds in the east.
While Tang San was practicing the Purple Demon Pupil, Zhou Qing, Romantina, Xiao Wu, and You Hui were doing radio gymnastics.
Among them, Youhui was forced to go along by Romantina.
At the beginning, Youhui was a little shy and nervous, but as she coordinated her body movements with the slogan “one, two, three, four”, the blood circulation in her body became active and she became much happier.
She herself also noticed this change and became curious about Zhou Qing - what kind of secrets did this boy who fascinated Romantina hide?
"What are you doing?"
Ning Rongrong's voice rang out outside the courtyard door.
"How did you get in?" Zhou Qing asked curiously.
"Of course, I climbed over the wall."
Ning Rongrong giggled and asked about the radio gymnastics.
Zhou Qing told her the truth and said that if she wanted to learn, he could teach her for free.
"No, that's too indecent."
This is indeed true. The movements of radio gymnastics are not designed according to dance standards. Their purpose is to activate muscles and bones and promote the flow of qi and blood.
It was understandable that Ning Rongrong refused, but in the end she felt it was boring to watch it alone, so she joined in anyway - well, at such a young age, she already had the potential to be a tsundere!
When Tang San finished practicing the Purple Demon Pupil, he jumped down and joined Zhou Qing and the others in the radio gymnastics group, stretching his muscles.
After doing three rounds of radio gymnastics, everyone went to the kitchen to eat under the leadership of the host Youhui, and Wang, with a big belly, brought the prepared breakfast to the table with the servants.
Seeing Ning Rongrong, Wang wanted to kneel down to thank her, but Zhou Qing persuaded her: "Auntie Wang, you are pregnant."
"This...that...I'm really sorry." Wang looked at Ning Rongrong with eyes full of apology.
"What's wrong?"
Ning Rongrong looked at Wang's big belly and said with a smile, "You'd better take good care of the pregnancy."
"Auntie Wang, after we finish our business, we will take you back to Holy Spirit Village." Tang San planned to go back to Holy Spirit Village later to help Uncle Wang reconnect his broken leg bones and ribs. "I learned some medical skills in Notting City, so I can help Uncle Wang."
If Tang San was just an ordinary six-year-old child, Wang would never believe that he could cure diseases. But Tang San started working as a blacksmith in the village when he was four or five years old, and now he has become a spirit master. Maybe he really has the ability to cure her husband!
