Chapter 891 [888] Elder

One day later.

As Cheng Han was fishing by the river again, he suddenly heard footsteps approaching from afar.

Not just one or two.

But many.

With his extremely keen hearing, he immediately recognized that the group of little radish heads was among them.

The number was – nine.

One more than yesterday.

As lively and active children, their pace was slightly faster than that of adults.

Besides that.

Cheng Han also heard two different footsteps, their steps were heavier, and their pace was slower.

The former indicated heavier weight, while the latter meant greater height.

The answer was self-evident – these were two adult pointy ears.

Cheng Han's ears twitched, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "The adults in the village finally want to come and take a look?"

He slightly adjusted his posture, ready to lift the fishing rod.

Because he sensed that a black fish was about to bite.

Soon.

The footsteps gradually approached, and then stopped.

The group appeared behind the bushes, without continuing to approach.

Cheng Han clearly sensed that pairs of eyes were focused on his back.

Low whispers also floated over.

"The blind man is fishing again."

"The blind man really likes to fish."

Cheng Han remained calm and composed, the hand holding the fishing rod as steady as a mountain.

A second later.

The fishing line suddenly tightened.

This meant that the black fish had taken the bait.

At the same time.

Cheng Han's right hand moved, and he quickly lifted the fishing rod.

"Splash～"

River water splashed up.

The black fish that was caught, vigorously swung its tail, drawing an arc in the air, and crashed towards Cheng Han.

A group of little radish heads couldn't help but exclaim:

"Wow!"

Seemingly because they were with adults, they felt more secure, and this shout was obviously louder.

"Pa!"

Cheng Han's palm accurately hit the fish's head, and the black fish immediately fainted, no longer struggling frantically.

The children grimaced again, each feeling that the blind man was fierce and cruel.

The pupils of the two adults shrank at the same time.

Without any eyes, he could still knock the black fish unconscious with one palm, this blind man was extraordinary!

Afterward.

The black fish was taken off by the blind man, and the appearance of the fish hook was revealed.

The children didn't notice this small detail, but the two strong men saw it clearly.

This was not a fish hook as commonly imagined, but – a stone needle.

And it was – straight.

The two strong men exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

A straight hook could actually catch fish, this blind man was not simple.

These two were relatively strong warriors in the village, mastering many martial arts, but they thought to themselves that they definitely didn't have such ability.

Then.

The blind man moved the fishing rod.

The fish hook flew out again, falling back to the water surface.

The surroundings quieted down.

The two strong men, for some unknown purpose, simply watched quietly, without interrupting.

A group of little radish heads also realized that the atmosphere was not right, and they all shut their mouths.

After a while.

Cheng Han adjusted his sitting posture and sighed leisurely: "I smelled the scent of drought from the river water."

Honestly speaking.

This demeanor was a bit mystical, just smelling the river water, and he knew that a drought was coming.

Wasn't this a bit too far-fetched?!

Many children didn't believe it at all.

This year's river water level was much higher than in previous years, this didn't look like a drought situation at all.

The two strong men's expressions changed when they heard this.

Because this was the revelation that the elder had received from listening to the ancestral spirit not long ago.

However, the information was currently confidential, so few people knew about it.

Cheng Han became mystical again: "The drought will last for a long time, and when most of the earth's vitality is wiped out, the real destruction will come."

The two strong men couldn't sit still anymore.

They exchanged glances again, one used his mouth to say "Let's go", and the other nodded.

The two turned around and left decisively.

A group of little radish heads were a little confused, but they didn't dare to ask, and obediently followed behind.

Only Cheng Han was left by the river.

"Splash!"

The sound of water waves rose.

Cheng Han caught another black fish.

He murmured softly: "I randomly chose a small world, and encountered a super-large-scale drought, is this a coincidence?"

The so-called "drought" was the result of deductions based on various signs.

It just so happened that the time of the drought's occurrence was highly close to the birth of the "calamity", he didn't think this was a coincidence.

The "river water scent" and so on was not nonsense, with his current powerful ability, he could indeed sense that the water system laws vaguely had signs of decline, which was undoubtedly a sign of a major drought.

And the next sentence, "the real destruction", was just a guess.

The reason for doing this was naturally to scare the village elder.

Cheng Han listened to the sound of footsteps fading away, revealing a hint of a smile: "It seems that the scare effect is not bad!"

He personally estimated that within these two days, the elder would most likely come to visit once.

*

The village elder's visit came earlier than expected.

Or rather.

The elder's eagerness was a little beyond Cheng Han's expectations.

That night.

When blue meteors flew across the night sky of this small world.

The so-called "blue meteor" was a unique atmospheric phenomenon of this world, each meteor representing an ancestral spirit on the earth.

The wooden door of the small wooden house was suddenly knocked.

"Dong! Dong!"

Cheng Han tilted his head and replied: "Please come in!"

The next moment.

The wooden door was pushed open.

The two strong men, who had previously appeared by the river, entered the house first.

An old man with a cane followed behind.

This person's skin color was darker, appearing as dark brown, and his pointy ears drooped down, which was a symbol of aging.

The gazes of these three first swept over the burning fireplace, and then locked onto the figure sitting next to it – Cheng Han.

The elder didn't speak immediately, seemingly thinking about how to word it.

Cheng Han immediately sensed that there was an extremely special power in the elder's soul.

It didn't belong to the elder, but it was closely connected to him.

"Pa!"

The wood in the fireplace suddenly made a sound, and the flames trembled along with it.

Cheng Han took the lead in breaking the silence: "White fir wood has many air chambers that are difficult to see with the naked eye.

"When this kind of wood burns, the gas in the air chambers expands, always making a popping sound."

He paused, and then said: "Based on the same principle, houses built with white fir will develop cracks after being used for a little longer."

Cheng Han gave a conclusion: "So white fir is not a suitable building material."

The two strong men exchanged glances unconsciously, both seeing the astonishment in each other's eyes.

They had known since childhood that white fir could not be used to build houses, but today they learned the reason behind it.

The elder's eyes became more serious, and he slowly said: "Wise man from another land, your knowledge is very profound."

Originally, the elder planned to call him "traveler from another land", but after hearing the knowledge about white fir, he immediately changed the title to "wise man".
