Chapter 542
Let’s say that after Su Xin counted his own space, he carefully sorted out the whole story of this incident, as well as the battle with the corpse puppet, and the realization of the desperate situation, etc., there are gains and losses.

What he got was materials, combat experience and state of mind, but Xiao Tao fell into a deep sleep.

After rewashing and changing into clean clothes, the smell of blood disappeared, and then I climbed onto the bed exhausted to make up for the sleep of the past few days.

Su Xin just fell asleep, and in the mist, she felt a force pulling her consciousness to a strange place.

This scene gave her a feeling of déjà vu...

Under the blue sky and white clouds, by the edge of a clear stream, several daughters-in-law and girls are washing clothes, chatting and laughing.

A slender young woman came from a distance and joined one of the circles. She had just washed her hands in the water twice, when she suddenly found something shiny and reflective at the bottom of the water, and bent down to pick up a crystal ball-like thing.

Seeing her always staring at their hands, the people nearby joked, "Taoyao, what are you looking at?"

The other smiled and said, "Of course I'm looking at my little white hands."

"No, who doesn't know that Gu Sheng loves his daughter-in-law like the flesh on the apex of his heart, or else he is still as delicate and tender as a big girl after being married for several years?!"

People tore apart as they talked, with sourness in their words.

Tao Yao's expression became a little strange, "You...can't you all see it?"

"Can't you see something? Did you touch the diamond? I heard that the old nose is worth a lot of money. It can be exchanged for a lot of oil, salt and rice."

People looked over one after another, and some joked: "Wow, Taoyao,"

"Wow, diamond, where is it?"

"Really? Are you sure?"

"Let me see, let me see"

Everyone swarmed around, all eagerly looking at Taoyao's hand.

But there was nothing on her outstretched palm, the white and tender catkins were moist and moist, glowing with luster under the sun.

He even reached out and touched her hand, but the palm was empty and there was nothing there.

Disappointment flashed across people's faces, and they even felt that she was deliberately teasing them, showing off her white and tender hands in front of them on purpose.

After some laughing, they dispersed.

Seeing people's reactions, Taoyao didn't seem to be cheating, and felt inexplicably panicked.

Why did so many people wash their clothes here just now, but they didn't see it, but they saw it?
Why did they say nothing about the crystal ball, which was clearly in their hands?

Just when she was about to shake it off, it suddenly fell into her palm.

She scratched her palm hard, but there was nothing on it.

Back to the village in panic.

As soon as the picture turned, what appeared in Su Xin's mind was orderly houses and farmland, surrounded by trees, like a paradise.

A muscular man came back with a basket, and shouted from a distance: "Yaoyao, Yaoyao, what do you think I brought back? Fish, it's fish. I went to work today, and the village chief gave me a basket." Fish, I will cook fish soup for you tonight..."

A fire and a fried fish, simple and warm.

Her husband's generous care made Taoyao almost forget the accident that happened by the stream in the afternoon. It was not until the two of them snuggled up on the bed that Taoyao remembered it suddenly, and said it out with a doubtful tone.

The husband didn't feel at all that it was his wife talking nonsense, he looked very serious, he quickly took Taoyao's hand, looked at it carefully, and said: "Don't worry, we will prepare a gift tomorrow and ask the high priest to do a divination."

The reason why this village is able to have the current good weather is because the high priest divination and praying for the village every year, so everyone here worships her very much, and whenever there is a disease or something, they will ask her.

Both of them were born and raised here, so naturally.

The husband held his wife's hand tightly all the time, and just when they were completely asleep, that strange crystal bead popped out from the top of Taoyao's head, like a clear crystal, floating around the two of them. circle, as if checking, and then returned to the top of Taoyao's head, emitting a glistening radiance. After a long time, the radiance slowly dissipated, and the crystal ball also disappeared out of thin air with the radiance dissipating.

The next day, before the two had time to go to the high priest for divination, they heard panic calls from people in the village.

The stream they depended on for survival stopped flowing, revealing a river bed covered with stones and sand!

The stream dried up, which was the lifeblood of the entire village, and people became extremely panicked and frightened.

The village head summoned everyone to the drying ground in the village, which is also a place for gatherings and offering sacrifices.

On the altar in the center, a desk and three animal sacrifices have been placed. The high priest wearing a colorful cloth striped skirt is wearing a mask, holding a flag in his hand, dancing weird dances, and chanting very dull words. tone.

There is a circle of shirtless men around, also wearing masks, but the facial makeup on them is different, dancing around the altar and beating the drum at the waist at the same time.

The drum beats and dance steps and the high priest's chanting inexplicably fit together.

The atmosphere was dignified, and people looked forward to the high priest in the center.

Suddenly, the flag in the high priest's hand stood up, and the drumming and dancing stopped suddenly.

The village chief put his ear to the mouth of the high priest, nodded from time to time, with a terrified expression on his face, and then straightened up.

Everyone didn't dare to express their anger, and only heard the village head say solemnly: "Just now the high priest has communicated with the gods of heaven, and the reason why our mother river stopped flowing is because someone stole the water dragon ball—"

Water dragon ball?
When Taoyao heard these three words, her heart trembled inexplicably, and a big warm hand held her hand tightly.

Just in the bottom of her heart, she was still a little lucky, but she heard a piercing female voice from beside her: "Water Dragon Ball, I know who stole the Water Dragon Ball..."

Not only the village chief, but even the high priest was slightly taken aback.

I didn't expect to find that "candidate" so quickly.

Tao Yao knew just by hearing the voice that the other party was Xing Zi who was doing laundry together yesterday.

Unexpectedly, the little girl who looks innocent and harmless is actually the first person to jump out and betray her at this moment.

A few women next to her went to pull Xingzi's clothes, and gave her a wink: "Xingzi, don't talk nonsense."

Sachiko saw those masked men who were eating their arms and beating drums parting the crowd and walking towards her, and immediately replied loudly: "Why don't you talk nonsense? Now someone has stolen the water dragon ball, and the river, the mother we depend on, is exposed." The river bed is gone, all of us will die of thirst, do you still want to protect her? Could it be that you are also with her?"

Those women were all washing clothes with Taoyao yesterday, and seeing Taoyao's abnormal behavior, they absolutely dare not contact Shuilongzhu.

Now that the village and the high priest are showing such fanfare, if it is really related to the water dragon ball, maybe something will happen.

They have no grievances with Taoyao in the past, and they have no grievances in the present, so they can't just say a word to harm others.
