Entering Hu's house, under the leadership of the waiter, a group of five people saw an old man wearing elegant robes with white beard and hair. The most conspicuous feature of his body was the white beard that was more than a foot long on his chin.

.

Tao Xi looked at the old man's beard, but her mind went astray. He wore such a long beard every day, and she didn't know if his head would feel heavy when he spoke. Of course, she was purely curious.

There is no other meaning.

The old man was Mr. Hu whom they and their party were going to visit.

Before she could get distracted, the old man took the lead and asked: "I wonder what you want to do with me, Hu Caocao?"

When Tao Xi heard this, she realized that he was a real person but not a real person. If he hadn't learned from Tao Nan and Lang Bei in advance that this person was an expert, it would have been difficult for her to associate such a careless name with a person who lived in Qingmu City.

Contact the respected wizards from surrounding tribes.

But then she thought about it and realized that many people in this world had humorous names, so she felt relieved. For example, she herself was called "Kuixi", her father was called "Escape", Uncle Nan was called "Fleeing" and so on.

One is enough.

During this brief period of thinking, Tao Nan had already stated his intention and asked Tao Xi and Tao Shi to pay Hu Caocao a courtesy. Only then did Tao Xi withdraw her thoughts and stop making blind assumptions.

After that, Hu Caocao divined a divination for them on the spot under the attention of everyone.

Unexpectedly, the results of the hexagram showed that the people who attacked the Tao tribe before were members of a certain tribe in the northwest of Tao village, and the wolf tribe happened to be on that side.

Seeing that something was wrong, Lang Bei, and Lang Sheng himself swore on the spot that he had not sent any of the wolf children to harm anyone behind their backs, so the former asked Hu Caocao to divine a divination for him. As a result, the divination showed a sinister sign, indicating that he would not be able to do anything in the future.

There will be a great calamity.

"This... Mr. Hu, you must give our brother a way to save us. My brother is the leader of the wolf clan. Nothing will happen to him, even if I have to suffer this disaster for him! Please help me.

, Brother has suffered a lot over the years, there is no way this calamity should happen to him..."

The more Lang Sheng talked, the more serious the matter became. In his anxiety, he knelt down at Hu Caocao's feet as soon as he finished speaking.

Even after knowing the results of the divination, Lang Bei on the side did not agree with his brother's actions.

"A Sheng! Get up! Don't cause trouble for Mr. Hu. He can remind us that we have done our best. I will just take precautions when I turn around!"

Hu Caocao glanced at Lang Bei appreciatively, but at this moment, Lang Sheng turned around again, knelt down in front of Tao Nan, and begged, "Brother Tao, what happened today is all my fault, Lang Sheng! Everything is fine."

It's my fault, you must not blame this on my brother!"

In fact, Lang Sheng's own strength is not bad. Although he is not as good as Tao Nan, his one-handed strength is at least 10,000 kilograms.

However, as soon as the divination results came out, he completely lost his bearings. It must be said that this person's psychological endurance was really poor. But this matter cannot be entirely blamed on him. It actually happened for a reason.

On the one hand, this is because Hu Caocao has always been very accurate in divination, and he has made fortune and misfortunes for many tribesmen in the surrounding area and in the city, and has never made any mistakes. On the other hand, it is because Tao Xi's mantra has not yet been removed from him.

After being relieved, driven by his true emotions, Lang Sheng couldn't help but reveal his true character.

But one of the people present was very unhappy at this moment, it was Tao Nan who was begged for mercy by the wolf for no reason.

Seeing the situation, he simply moved aside, letting Lang Sheng miss his chance, and then said solemnly: "What happened at the Aoki Market today has changed. There is no reason for me to continue to have trouble with your brother."

Tao Shi next to him also followed up and said: "Big man, I have forgiven you a long time ago. You should get up quickly. Xiao Xi has already said that a man has gold under his knees and cannot kneel down to others."

Then, he turned to remind Tao Xi, "Do you think it's the function of the mantra..."

After hearing this, the people present had different reactions.

Today at the market, Tao Nan only knew that his younger generation had been troubled by the Wolf tribe, and did not know about the mantra, so he only showed a confused look. However, Lang Bei was reminded by the tribe and knew about it.

But he only thought that the mantra was a trick to confuse people. As for Hu Caocao, who was also in the house, he was even more confused.

"Mantra? What is that? Why haven't I heard of it?"

The first person to ask was of course Tao Nan, who was also from the Tao tribe.

Tao Xi reacted and said quickly: "Then I will take the talisman back first."

As she said that, she stretched out her hand towards Lang Sheng, without even touching him. A piece of luminous talisman flew out from the latter's body, but as soon as the talisman fell into her palm, it turned into dots of stars.

Dissipated between heaven and earth.

A look of regret flashed across Tao Xi's eyes. There was no shortage of spiritual energy in this world. According to her estimation, the talisman could last at least a few more hours. However, she suddenly thought of the reason why the talisman was scrapped. Maybe it was

The material she used to draw the talisman before was not owned by this world. In this way, she gained some experience today, and destroying this mantra talisman was not a waste.

Turning around, she looked at Tao Shi with a smile and said, "Okay, this time the big man doesn't have any mantras on him."

Tao Shi quickly looked at Lang Sheng: "Great, big man, you should be able to get up by now, right?"

With Tao Nan's words as a guarantee and the young man Tao Shi's dissuasion, Lang Sheng also knew that it was shameful and unmanly for him to kneel all the time, so he stood up from the ground. But at this time, the focus of everyone in the room was

It has already been transferred away from him.

Lang Bei frowned and looked in Tao Xi's direction, and whispered: "Is that the mantra talisman?"

Tao Nan's face was dull for a moment, and he thought that such magical skills were not owned by his Tao clan, and where did Xiao Xi learn it? Could it be from her mother's clan? Yes, it can only be

He learned it from the Yue Clan people. After thinking about it, he said nothing more and planned to ask Tao Xi what was going on later.

Unexpectedly, when Hu Caocao saw Tao Xi collecting the talisman, he immediately said: "How do you know how to carve talismans? Do you have any relationship with the Yue tribe?"

When he took another look at Tao Xi's appearance and her skin color, which was very different from ordinary Tao people, he was even more convinced that his guess was correct, "Let me ask you, are you a descendant of the Yue people?"

Tao Xi was stunned by this question. The main reason was that she really didn't know the connection between being able to refine talismans and being a descendant of the Yue tribe. What if she answered something wrong, wouldn't she have revealed her secret? But

She looked back on her original memory, and she really couldn't remember how much her mother Yue Ying had said about the Yue Clan, let alone anything related to the talisman.

Thinking of this, she simply replied: "It should be considered half."

"Ah? Half?" Hu Caocao didn't react for a while.

At this time, Tao Nan quickly explained to her: "Xiao Xi's mother is from the Yue tribe, and her father is from our Tao tribe, so she is absolutely right when she said half of it."

"She is just a Yue tribe member who married into a foreign tribe, so how can she know the talisman carving technique? Shouldn't the Yue tribe's talisman carving technique be taught only to the saints of the past generations?"

"Ouch! We can't talk about this kind of thing anymore, it involves other people's privacy. Mr. Hu, I'm offended. It's not convenient for me to talk about this matter. As for Xiao Xi, she doesn't know even more.

If you are really interested in this, why not visit Tao Village, where our Tao people are located, someday? Let Xiao Xi’s parents tell you about it? I believe they will not refuse when they see you. But if you want

If I tell more things, this is not in line with the rules of our Tao people."

As Tao Xi listened, Hu Caocao called the "talisman" the "talisman carving technique", but also said that this method was related to the saint girl of the Yue Clan, and a drama of love and hatred suddenly appeared in his mind.

Could it be that her mother was a former saint from the Yue Clan? Then she fell in love with her father, Tao Sheng, a poor boy from the Tao Clan? Then she abandoned her identity as a saint and escaped from the Yue Clan, following her father to live in the Tao Clan? If that’s the case, then that’s

So romantic...

At this time, Lang Sheng looked anxiously on the side, "Master Hu, don't just indulge in the gossip of the Tao people, but give some advice to our brothers? I really beg you, or... we also invite you

Come to the Wolf Clan to take charge of this, so that my brother can avoid this disaster? Of course, we will prepare hundreds of sets of tortoise shells and other items you like as thank you gifts, and also prepare another hundred gold coins, what do you think?"

Lang Bei's eyes lit up and he felt that there was something interesting about this matter. It is said that this Master Hu is difficult to invite, but if he invites him with something he likes, he may not be unable to invite him. If he can use some external objects to avoid the disaster mentioned by the other party,

It's not a blessing.

Thinking of this, he looked at his younger brother Lang Sheng with a hint of admiration, finally becoming smarter.

Tao Nan hissed at the side and took a breath of cold air. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The wolf people are really rich and wealthy. Unlike the Tao people, although they have no worries about food and drink, they are very poor in terms of money. Especially in terms of money.

The other party also promised to prepare hundreds of sets of tortoise shells and other items for Mr. Hu. These are good things that even money can't buy. I wonder if Mr. Hu can still withstand such temptation?

Thinking about this, he looked at the wizard Hu Caocao with great interest.

Although Tao Xi didn't know much about currencies in this world, she also knew that the rental fee for two days at the market was only two silver coins, but the big man from the wolf clan in front of him could buy hundreds of gold coins in one move. Think about it, he has a strong purchasing power.

ah!

"One hundred gold coins, one gold coin is worth one hundred silver coins, one silver coin is worth one hundred copper coins, one copper coin can buy two candy figures, then one hundred gold coins can buy...

Tao Shi on the side was mumbling something, almost losing count of how many candy canes he could buy with this money.

Oh! This time Tao Xi understood.

"Hey! Little brother of the wolf clan, I also want to earn this money. Unfortunately, I am old. Whether I can spend so many gold coins in this life is another question. Besides, it is your brother.

You have to solve this matter on your own, and I really can’t help."

"Don't mention it, Mr. Hu, I know you can definitely help. Besides, our wolf clan is so sincere. Even for the sake of hundreds of sets of tortoise shells, you have to be tempted.

Bar?"

"No, absolutely not!" Hu Caocao waved his hands repeatedly.

Seeing this, Tao Xi praised this noble man in his heart.

Tao Nan also whispered to his son Tao Shi: "Do you see? In the future, you must learn from Master Hu. You must have your own principles when doing things. It is not your own business, and you must not interfere."

"Dad, don't worry, I'll remember it!" Tao Shi raised his face and looked at his father, then nodded seriously.

"How about...five hundred sets of tortoise shells?"

"No, no, really not."

"Eight hundred sets?"

"This... am I, Lao Hu, the one who just waits to see me? I just see that you two brothers are really sincere. If you add fifty sets, I will go with you. In addition, the gold coins agreed before cannot be

Less than half a coin for me."

Tao Xi: "..."
