Li Daoxuan and his party arrived at Zhalong Village. The rain gradually got heavier. Kong Que and Caiyun quickened their pace. Li Daoxuan and his party followed the two women at a leisurely pace.

In the distance, bamboo buildings were lined up. From a distance, the appearance of the bamboo buildings was simple and elegant.

The roof was steeply sloped, covered with layers of bamboo, like a green ocean.

Caiyun introduced to Li Daoxuan and others happily:

"Our village is the largest in this area!"

Li Daoxuan looked at the red cloth hanging on the surrounding bamboo buildings and asked curiously:

"Is there any happy event here recently? Why are there red cloths hanging everywhere?"

When Peacock heard Li Daoxuan's question, he quickly answered:

"Brother God, it's like this. After the old patriarch of our village stepped down, we have to elect a new patriarch!"

"That's why they all hang red cloths."

When the fat man heard that there was a happy event, he immediately thought of having a meal. He looked at Peacock and said:

"If there is a happy event, will there be big fish and meat? Can we have a feast?"

Peacock nodded, then looked at Li Daoxuan and said:

"Brother God, you must stay for a while. My sister and I will treat you well."

"We're here. Our inn is in front."

Peacock pointed to the small bamboo building in front. Although it was simple, it could be seen that Peacock and Caiyun had tidied it up in an orderly manner.

The inn was empty. It seemed that there was no one else except Li Daoxuan and his group.

Li Daoxuan and his group entered the inn and found a place to sit down.

Kong Que enthusiastically poured tea for everyone and began to prepare the food.

At this time, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, hitting the bamboo building, making a crisp sound.

The house was filled with a faint fragrance of tea, making people feel warm and peaceful.

Old Hu asked curiously:

"By the way, Kong Que, what is the ceremony for selecting a new patriarch?"

Kong Que smiled as he placed the bowls and chopsticks:

"After dinner, I'll take you to see it and you'll know! But let's eat first, everyone must be starving."

After a while, a table of sumptuous dishes was served.

Everyone picked up their chopsticks and ate heartily.

The atmosphere at the table was harmonious, with laughter and joy.

When everyone had almost finished eating, Shirley Yang asked about the journey to Zhalong Mountain.

Kong Que pursed his lips, thinking about the clan rules, but when he thought about the gods who saved his and his sister's lives, he answered truthfully:

"It's like this, it is said that there is a treasure there, and some people in our village have been there, but none of them came back alive."

"Brother God, Sister God, are you going there to find something?"

Shirley Yang nodded, and then asked:

"Then do you know the nearest way?"

Kong Que continued:

"Our clan didn't allow us to tell this secret to others, but you saved my and my sister's lives. I know there are two ways, one is a mountain road, which has not been walked for a long time, and the other is a waterway under the mountain. If you want to go into the mountain, you can only take this road."

Caiyun nodded, and then looked at Li Daoxuan and others worriedly.

If the secret of Zhalong Mountain is revealed, Kong Que and Caiyun will not be able to stay in Zhalong Village.

Before, a tribe member leaked the secret to outsiders, and the tribe leader at that time expelled that person from the village without saying a word.

Kongque and Caiyun are two girls. If they are expelled from the village, their lives will be in trouble.

Li Daoxuan said softly:

"Don't worry, if you are expelled from the village because of this, you can stay with us in the future."

Kongque and Caiyun looked at each other and smiled happily.

"Thank you, brother fairy!"

Kongque jumped up with joy.

Kongque and Caiyun actually have their own little plans. They really want to walk out of the mountains and take a look at the outside world.

Moreover, there are many people in this Zhalong Village who have ideas about them.

If Li Daoxuan didn't show up, Kongque and Caiyun would have to accept their fate.

But since Li Daoxuan wants to take them away, following Li Daoxuan is definitely the best choice.

After dinner, the rain slowly stopped.

The fat man kept shouting that he wanted to see the election of a new patriarch, so Peacock led everyone to the square where the election ceremony was held.

There was a stone platform in the center of the square, surrounded by torches, which lit up the square.

People gathered around the stone platform, it was so lively.

An old man stood on the stage and shouted at the top of his voice: "The election ceremony for the patriarch begins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man walked onto the stone platform. He was one of the candidates for the election of the patriarch.

The young man showed off his martial arts and leadership skills, and the audience cheered.

Next, other candidates also went on stage to perform one after another.

Peacock and Caiyun watched excitedly from the side., with a heart full of yearning for the future.

At this time, Li Daoxuan sneaked up to them and whispered:

"After the ceremony, we will go home. We will set off tomorrow and take you two with us when we return to Kyoto."

Kongque and Caiyun nodded excitedly.

The election is still a few days away, so the new patriarch has not been elected for a while, and Li Daoxuan and others are bored.

Caiyun and Kongque took Li Daoxuan and others back to the inn.

After arriving at the inn, Shirley Yang took out the human skin map and studied the route.

"Look here, the water route seems to be closer than the mountain route, but it is also more likely to encounter danger."

Li Daoxuan nodded in agreement:

"However, we are capable of dealing with it. The traps left by the old man Xian Wang may be dangerous for ordinary people."

"But it is easy for us."

The fat man patted his chest and said proudly:

"Don't be afraid, with my fat master here, no difficulties are a problem!"

Lao Hu checked his storage ring on the side to see if the supplies were ready and to ensure that there was no risk.

The next morning, the sun shone on the bamboo building.

After everyone carried their bags and said goodbye to Peacock and Caiyun, they headed towards the waterway.

Caiyun and Peacock stood at the door of the inn, watching the figures of Li Daoxuan and others gradually go away.

When they arrived at the waterway pointed by Peacock and Caiyun, there was only a small stream running through the bottom of the mountain.

When they arrived at the stream, Lao Hu and the fat man were about to walk into the bamboo forest to cut some bamboo to make a bamboo raft.

At this time, Li Daoxuan stretched out his hand to stop them.

Li Daoxuan pointed to the bamboo forest ahead with a calm expression. He saw that the bamboos grew rapidly under the nourishment of spiritual energy. Each bamboo became as thick as an adult's thigh and as high as 20 to 30 meters.

With a light wave of his arm, a sword energy passed through, and the bamboos broke with a sound.

Looking at the vines again, they tightly bound the bamboo pieces scattered on the ground as if they had intelligence, and a simple bamboo raft was formed.

Li Daoxuan looked at Lao Hu and Fatty and chuckled:

"It's done now."

Lao Hu and Fatty looked at each other, silently put the bamboo raft into the stream, and several people jumped on the bamboo raft together and continued to move forward along the waterway.
