mad dog plus three

In the depths of the blood-tainted land, the dull and monotonous drumbeat sounded.

A circle of people wearing black cloaks and covered in black cloth surrounded a fire.

On the right side of the fire was a man in the same dress sitting on the ground and beating the leather drum again and again.

On the left side of the fire, a man in a gray and white cloak sat cross-legged, with a black swaddle between his crossed legs.

The swaddle was moving, and the little thing inside seemed to be struggling to stretch out its legs and fists.

The gray-white cloak solemnly took out a bottle, uncorked the bottle, and dripped a drop between the baby's brows very carefully and with great care.

"Patter" black and red sticky substance dripped on the middle of the baby's forehead.

The sticky thing didn't move for a long time, and the sound of the drum became faster than before.

"Isn't this okay too?" The gray-white cloak murmured, his tone full of frustration and despair.

"My lord priest, look!" Someone let out a joyful cry.

The gray-white cloak lowered his head, and saw the black-red goo began to squirm, trying to get into the baby's brow.

The baby howled suddenly.

The gray cloak was overwhelmed with surprise. While stroking the little baby, he murmured: "My good boy, this is your creation. Swallow it and fuse it, and you will have the possibility of getting out of here. Don't be afraid of pain, this is your catastrophe. Get over it and everything will be fine.”

The baby cried more and more terribly, until he became hoarse after crying.

But all the adults are as hard-hearted and let him cry.

This extremely painful torture for the little baby was not over until the drop of black and red sticky substance completely penetrated into the center of the baby's eyebrows.

The little baby was so tired that he fell asleep with tears in his eyes.The drums stopped.

The gray and white cloak stroked his tender little face pitifully.

"Go and talk to Fenghua, we agree to exchange the magic plants for clear water with a deworming rate of more than [-]%, according to the ratio they said."

"Master Priest! No, the price they want is too harsh. One can of Baqing requires us to exchange ten cans of magic plant fruits. The most important thing is that once their upper echelons know that we have given birth to a complete magic source Boy, I'm afraid we're going to take another batch of kids!"

"Then what do you think we should do? We don't have Baqingshui anymore, and we can't get insect suckers like the big villages. Is it possible that we have to watch this child's magic source be abolished again?"

The circle of black cloaks was all silent.

At last the drummer said: "I'll take care of this matter. I'll go find other people first. If it doesn't work, I'll find Fenghua."

The gray cloak shook his head: "I know who you are looking for, but Baqingshui...is not something he can find, let alone we need it for a long time, not just one or two cans."

The drummer said sullenly, "Let me try it first."

The gray and white cloak sighed helplessly.

In the open fields.

Add three or so to look, and finally hold your breath, open your mouth, a lot of mist inhaled into the mouth and nose.

It looks hazy outside the fog, but after entering, you will find that the surrounding vision is okay.

Smacking his lips, the mist actually had a fishy-sweet taste when inhaled into his mouth.

Now that they have been inhaled, Jiasan simply let go.Once he let go of his breathing, he found that the air here was more comfortable than the air outside, and he couldn't tell why, but he felt that his bones were three points lighter anyway.

Jiasan grabs a handful of stones and occasionally throws one. He seems to be wandering around randomly, but he is actually walking very carefully.

Plants of unknown species are planted in the fields, and the rows are arranged very neatly.The plants are not particularly lush, but they are many times better than the situation where no plants are visible outside.

There were also puddles of mud scattered in the fields and along the ridges, piled up here and there like some kind of compost.

The mud exuded a stench, and Jiasan was worried that it was highly poisonous, so he didn't dare to get close to observe it carefully.His current task is to find tobacco leaves, and the rest can be ignored for the time being.

Jiasan has a question that has been held back until now. Seeing that there is no one around, he immediately asked Lei Nuo: "Are you there, Lei Nuo? If the identity ring outside is opened by magic, why can ordinary people use it?"

"Wait a minute." After a while, Lei Nuo replied: "Except for the identity rings in a few places such as the Xia Clan, the outer identity rings are all equipped with magic circles that automatically absorb magic energy, because there are magic power everywhere, just The mechanical opening method was canceled, and the Xia Clan added a mechanical opening method to Xiamin's identity ring. The reason why ordinary people in the outside world can open the identity ring is that the magic power in the identity ring has always been abundant. But when it comes to forbidden magic In a place where the identity ring cannot replenish the magic power, in order to maintain the lowest magic power inside, the identity ring will become unable to open."

"So that's how it is." Jiasan solved a problem, and he immediately felt much better, "What are you doing? Forget it, if you are busy, you don't have to answer me."

Renault answered quickly this time: "Killer, not busy."

Jiasan: "...Then be careful and kill, don't get distracted."

Renault laughed, "Ask whatever you want."

Jiasan heard that Renault really had enough time, so he looked around and asked, "I wanted to ask you earlier, why can you hear all the voices from my side, but I can only hear yours?"

"Spiritual power and magic power. Although the seeds of the stone race have the ability to transmit messages over long distances, they also need magic power and spiritual power support. Your spiritual power and magic power are not enough to support long-distance communication. Now your spiritual power and The magic power can only maintain the basic function of the ear clip on your ear, which is to talk to me."

"So that's how it is." Jiasan felt that it was good to only have the call function, but there were too many noises, and he was afraid that he would not be able to bear it.

Renault said again: "In addition, your stone race is very cunning, the seeds it provides must pass through it to transmit messages, if it dies or it unilaterally cuts off, the ability of the seeds to transmit messages will be erased, and all messages will be deleted. It collects, it's like a..."

"Transit station?"

"Transfer collection... yes, that's what it means. I don't like to be controlled by others, and I don't like all the connections between me and you to go through that stone race. After I got its seed, I re-modified the seed For certain internal characteristics, the ear clips you and I use now do not need to be transferred through the stone race, nor do we need to rely on it."

When mentioning the stone race, Jiasan couldn't help but worry, "I don't know how the buds are doing now?"

Renault said coldly: "I can't die. Once the stone race encounters an extremely dangerous situation, it will return to the original seed state and wait for the next opportunity to germinate. And its original state is a stone, which can drill deep underground , you don’t need to worry about its safety at all.”

Jiasan already found that Lei Nuo seemed to dislike Nen Ya very much, and there must be nothing good to say about Nen Ya, but in his heart he felt that Nen Ya was very good, and he didn’t want to argue about it, so he changed the subject immediately and began to ask Lei Nuo some questions about cultivation. Renault patiently answered them one by one.

"Do you know the people of stained blood?" Jiasan saw the fields and the houses scattered in the fields, but did not see a living creature.

Renault paused: "Each race has its own secrets, especially the Xia clan. Only the Xia people can enter the place you enter. I have never heard that the Xia clan has blood-stained people before. I have heard that the Xia Clan exiled a group of their own people a long time ago."

"Ouch!"

Jiasan stopped and turned his head to the direction of the sound. Just now he threw a stone to the field ridge in front of the left to explore the way. Hearing the sound, the stone seemed to hit someone.

"Who's there? Sorry, I didn't see anyone. I didn't mean to throw stones at you. I didn't mean any harm. If you're hurt, let me take a look for you?" Jiasan raised his voice.

There was a rustling sound, and Jiasan heard the sound but did not see any living creatures moving, and the place where the sound came from was only a puddle of mud.

After waiting for a while, no one appeared, so Jiasan walked towards the direction of the sound.

Seeing the puddle of mud, add three to go around.

Not long after Jiasan left, he suddenly turned around.

The location of the puddle of mud seems to be different from the first time he saw it?Seems to move forward quite a bit?

Jiasan stared at the mud for a long time, but the mud did not move.

Forget it, it's better not to make extra troubles, it's important to find the tobacco leaves quickly.

After walking a dozen steps, Jiasan suddenly turned around.

Far behind him was a pool of mud that looked familiar.

Jiasan slowly turned around and continued to walk forward.

This time he walked two or 300 meters before turning back again.

Very well, the puddle of mud was already within ten meters behind him.

Jiasan twitched the corner of his mouth, ignored the mud, and only paid attention to the attack from behind.

After walking along the field ridge for about two to three thousand meters, Jiasan saw a village consisting of hundreds of thatched houses.

After arriving in the sinful land, he saw a lot of stone houses. At first glance, it looked like a thatched house, and Jiasan felt a little familiar in his heart.

"Should this be the village of the blood-stained people?" Jiasan turned his head, as if talking to himself, or asking the mud that followed closely behind him.

The mud didn't move or speak.

Kasan shrugged and walked into the village.

At first glance, the village seemed as uninhabited as the preceding fields.

But... Jia San's eyes fell on the roadside or the mud pile in the yard, with complicated emotions.

If it wasn't for the beach behind him, he would never have guessed that there were living creatures hidden in it.

Every household in this village has at least one yard, and the yard is also full of plants that Jiasan doesn't know.

"I forgot to ask what the tobacco leaves of Chuxiaohoe look like. Is there anyone for a trade?" Jiasan raised his voice, "I want to exchange some of the tobacco leaves, who has it? I can exchange it with gold coins, or I can help with work or filter water."

The village was very quiet, only Jiasan's voice echoed.

Except Xiaohoe asked him to find a way to subdue the blood-stained people who grow tobacco leaves. It sounded like he was going to fight and defeat the opponent, but Jiasan followed the etiquette first and then the soldiers, and decided to try to do civilized transactions first.

He shouted more than a dozen times and went around the whole village, but no one paid any attention to him.Is it really going to be a fight?

Jiasan stopped at the gate of a courtyard and shouted at the mud pile inside: "If no one trades, then I'll go in and pick it myself, I'm in!"

"Second Uncle, don't do anything!" A young boy's voice sounded.

Jiasan's eyes widened suddenly, and just as he was about to enter the courtyard, a tall slime monster suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. The fist of the slime monster had already stretched out in front of his eyes, but he didn't even have time to react to dodge it come over.

But following the shout, the huge muddy fist stopped abruptly in front of Jiasan's nose.

"You said you can filter water?" the boy's voice asked him.

Jiasan turned his head slowly and looked at the mud pile beside him. It turned out that the living things were not hidden in the mud pile, but the mud was the living things.

"Yes, if someone is willing to exchange tobacco leaves with me, I can help him filter the corresponding water according to the amount exchanged."

"Did you bring a bug extractor?" the boy's voice asked him.

"No, but I have other filtering methods."

"Zuwan, don't trust him!" The thick voice rang in Jiasan's ears, it was the tall slime monster who wanted to beat him up just now.

Jiasan raised his hand: "This big brother is still an uncle, I have no malicious intentions, I really just came to make an exchange."

Wuwan hesitated and said: "Second Uncle, he proposed to make a deal, and he didn't snatch it as soon as he came in."

"The transactions are all fake! They will only use useless things to deceive the fruits of our labor!" The second uncle said furiously.

"But... I need filtered clean water at home."

The second uncle seemed to have thought of the situation at Zuwanwan's house, so he changed his words immediately, and said to Jiasan in a vicious voice: "How do you change it, kid? How much tobacco leaves do you need to filter a can of clean water? I warn you, I know the market outside, so don't try to lie Come to me! The filtration degree of clean water must reach [-]/[-] to reduce insects, if you can’t reach it, don’t even think about exchanging it!”

How can Jiasan know what the market is? He can only get one magic crystal by filtering a can of water. How much tobacco can one magic crystal buy?In the end, he could only guess and say, "One tael of tobacco leaves for one pot of water?"

"..." The second uncle shouted almost excitedly: "Okay! This is what you said yourself. If you can't achieve it, no one in the village will exchange it for you!"

Jiasan knew that he was at a disadvantage when he heard the second uncle’s shout, but he had already said it, and it’s not good to change it again, and it’s troublesome to filter the water for others and hurt his body, but it really didn’t cost much to him. thing.

His second uncle was worried about the dirty pill, and said that he would work with the supervisor and Jiasan.

Diwan Wan: "Come with me, the village water is over there."

Jiasan saw that the mud representing the dirty pill was moving quickly against the ground, and there was a slight rustling sound during the movement.

Is this the People of Blood?Are these muddy monsters also Xia Min? !

Jiasan was horrified, but his face didn't show.

There is a river in the village, but the river is an underground river. The villagers only dug a row of more than a dozen caves where the river water is closest to the surface. Stone slabs are paved above the caves. The river water will not overflow, nor will it be as deep as well water.

Wuwan told Jiasan that the water holes are from top to bottom, the top one is for drinking water, and the bottom one can be used for bathing and so on.

His second uncle squeezed the dirty pill away, put two buckets of water on the side of the stone slab, stared at Jiasan and said, "Boy, you can start filtering the water. We won't take advantage of you. There are about ten cans here. If you can get all of them Filter, I promise to give you a pound of two taels of tobacco leaves."

"Okay." Jiasan was considering whether to drive away all the water-seeking monsters in the water, or let some of them stay.

At this moment, his second uncle said viciously: "Say it again! If your deworming ability is less than one-third, the promised reward will not be counted!"

Wu Wan whispered next to him: "Second Uncle, there's no need, just let him do his best."

His second uncle scolded angrily: "I'm not for you! It's for your sister! She was just born, so it's okay if she can't drink milk, and she can't even drink Sanqing water. Do you still expect a hundred-day test? One hundred days The time is enough for her magic source to be abolished!"

Diwan felt bitter, "The water I drank before contains a lot of insects, and now how many children are born with a complete magic source?"

"It's always a hope." His second uncle glared: "Just now you asked to make a deal with this kid, but now you don't expect it?"

Diwan: "The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. As long as he can get out the second clean water, I will..."

"Shut up!" His second uncle glared at Wuwanwan, telling him to leave the rest of the matter alone and leave it to him.

When Jiasan heard this, he raised his hand: "What do you mean by Sanqingshui and Erqingshui?"

Suzumaru and his second uncle looked at Kasan together.

Jiasan didn't see their eyes, but he could feel the two mud monsters looking at him.

"You don't know?" His second uncle suddenly sneered, "You kid, did you do it on purpose? Don't you know this kind of common sense? Sanqingshui refers to water with a degree of insect removal of [-]%. There is [-]% of the price, and [-]% is [-]%, if you can make eight clear water, let me mix with you."

Jiasan Xindong, although he only saw a little bit of the strength of this slime monster just now, but judging from his heavy and fast strength and his ability to send and receive freely, his strength is by no means low.

"Do you have tobacco at home?"

His second uncle: "My family doesn't have one, but Zouwan's does."

Add three: "I know you don't believe me, why don't we sign a contract and swear by the Dark Demon God..."

"Get out!" His second uncle suddenly turned his face and opened his mouth to curse: "The dark demon god is a bird! As a Xiamin, you don't believe in your ancestors, but believe in gods and demons of other races. You have the nerve to say that you are Xiamin!" ?I bother!"

Wuwan also snorted coldly: "Those who forget their ancestors will be abandoned by their ancestors!"

Adding to the grievance of San, he thought that the people here were all loyal fans of the Dark Demon God, but he didn't expect that the people of the blood stained people were completely opposite.

"Whether you believe it or not, I don't know the Dark Demon God, but everyone outside said that it would be more effective to use this person to verify the oath..."

"Bullshit! Our Xia tribe's oath doesn't need a foreign ghost to verify! What kind of thing is he! Boy, if you really want to make a contract with us, then invite Xia Zu!"

Jiasan: "...Okay, how can I ask you?"

His second uncle was upset again, and said heartbrokenly: "You people outside the wall, you don't even know how to invite your ancestors, you are wearing a layer of Xia people's skin in vain!"

Jiasan lowered his head, as if he was listening to the teacher.

His second uncle said in a cold voice, "Follow me, Xia Zu is here, and today there is Xia Min... What's your name?"

"Add three."

"Add family, hum!"

Jiasan: What happened to Jia’s family?

It's a pity that after his second uncle made this speech that was difficult to express, he returned to the oath.

The oath is very simple. Jiasan thought it would be troublesome to invite the ancestors, but in the end he added a sentence "Xia Zu is above" at the beginning, and added a sentence at the end "Xia Zu's witness, whoever breaks the oath will be punished by Xia Zu..."

Even if this contract oath is established, Jiasan specially added his second uncle Wu Tianxing's joke words to the oath, explaining in great detail the price each Qingshui needs to pay.It emphasizes that if the water filtered by Jiasan reaches more than eight clear water, one hundred cans within ten days can be exchanged for Wu Tianxing.

When Wu Tianxing uttered this contract oath, he didn't believe that Jiasan could get a hundred cans of Baqing water, not to mention Baqing, even if he could reach Sanqing, it meant that he and Wuwan had good luck today.

Wuwan didn't expect that Jiasan could get more than Sanqingshui, and this contract is not very binding on both parties. The real magic contract is bound to the soul, and the contract they are talking about now can only look at the contract Fang has no heart for completion.

Jiasan didn't expect this contract to have any effect, he just reassured the other party, and then gave himself another chance.

"Is it filtering here?" Jiasan asked.

Wu Tianxing: "Of course. You can start now. Let me tell you, don't cheat, I can tell how many monsters are left in my mouth when I taste it. Also, don't use poison, our contract states that it is clean water , does not include the dirty water that will kill people and make them sick!"

Jiasan smiled and reached into the bucket with one hand.

Wu Tianxing and Wu Wan opened their eyes wide, seeing that the child did not use the insect repellent, they were very curious about what method he would use to repel the insects.

Unexpectedly, Jiasan withdrew his hand suddenly, and said to the two of them, "Turn around, please. This is my family's exclusive secret. It won't work if people see it."

Wu Tianxing and Wu Wan couldn't help it, the older one cursed a few words, and turned around together with the younger one.

Jiasan didn't know if they were peeking, he couldn't tell the front and back of the two.

In order to maintain the sense of mystery and reduce the danger, Jiasan began to chant a mantra, a very vague mantra, not the kind that people closest to him would never be able to hear.

"Sky Lingling, Earth Lingling, and the water-seeking demon insects are all under orders, keep half of them, and the rest leave. After the test of the evil sky is over, you go out together, at least it is water for the newborn baby, nine If I take out clean water, it will harm people!"

After the water-seeking demon worms in the two buckets sensed Jiasan's breath, they scrambled to fly out.Maybe they panicked too much and attracted three beetles.

Under the orders of the three headworms, the order of Jiasan was perfectly executed.

"Okay, you guys have a try." Jiasan waited for 10 minutes in a daze before letting the two turn around.

Wu Tianxing took out a half gourd ladle from a bucket by the river, scooped a spoonful of water into the bucket impatiently, and poured it all into his mouth.
