"You finally came back." The village chief's expression relaxed, and he said to the others: "Everyone, disperse first."

When Wu Lao Liu rushed back to report the news, the village chief immediately called all the young and strong men in the village, ready to go to support Dabao and Chu Danqing.

Fortunately, the two returned safely.

After everyone dispersed, the three also walked toward the village chief's house.

On the way, Dabao spoke: "The black hole wants to eat; it named Little Chu, otherwise it wants ten girls."

When the village chief heard this, his expression sank.

"Village chief, don't mind telling me." Chu Danqing also spoke at the right time.

"It's ridiculous to say." The village chief's face turned into a bitter smile: "There has long been a precedent for the Mountain God to marry, but the one in our back mountain is the Cave God, and it's not marrying, but eating."

"It likes girls of cardamom age the most."

"It's just that we haven't even seen the Cave God's appearance; what we see are just some of its minions."

"I think Zhao Xiaoge Chu has also heard of the Falling Flower Cave in my Xianghua Village."

"Just hearing the name sounds quite elegant, but our village is called Xianghua Village."

Having said this, the village chief's face was bitter.

"Dabao... can't beat it?" Chu Danqing looked at Dabao; this situation was somewhat different from what he imagined.

Dabao's previous performance clearly had a restraining effect.

"It's just that the minions fear Dabao." The village chief said: "Zhao Xiaoge Chu, don't worry; this matter won't involve you."

"However, the little brother is truly extraordinary; the Cave God actually designated the little brother?"

The village chief was also puzzled in his heart; how did an outsider become a hot commodity, so much so that even the Cave God, who only liked girls, took a fancy to him.

"This might be a whim." Chu Danqing had a suspect target; he was plain, and if there was anything different, it was his two skills: Basic Summoning and Basic Summoning Art.

So he suspected it was the attraction brought by the skills.

The three quickly returned to the village chief's house, and the village chief greeted them to eat some midnight snacks.

In the process, Chu Danqing also told the village chief about the Bai Longyu.

The village chief pondered for a long time before saying: "They went back too early."

"Zhao Xiaoge Chu, you and Dabao have been busy all night; take a rest first."

"I'll go notify others to block the upstream overnight, and tomorrow morning we will pump the water and get rid of this evil beast."

The village chief still knew the four words "no delay."

Chu Danqing glanced at the night outside: "It's pitch black now; in case something unexpected happens..."

"It doesn't matter; if this evil beast doesn't die, my heart won't be at ease." After the village chief finished speaking, he got up and left, then saw the body of the Bai Longyu's offspring and continued: "Dabao, carry it to Jiang Tu's house after eating."

"Let him stew all these three little evil beasts into soup early tomorrow morning; before besieging the evil beast, everyone must have at least two large bowls."

Dabao listened and swallowed the food in two or three mouthfuls, nodded and said: "Alright."

"Zhao Xiaoge Chu, eat slowly." The village chief said and left.

Dabao also finished eating in a hurry, carried the Bai Longyu's offspring, and went out.

Only Chu Danqing was left alone, so he accelerated the efficiency of eating.

He was in a hurry to go back and open the treasure chest.

After returning to the guest room of the village chief's house, Chu Danqing took out the treasure chest.

"Hope to open some useful things."

【You opened: Treasure Chest (Common Tier), obtained: Sub-Rank Fish Marrow Blood, Paradise Points × 100】

【Sub-Rank Fish Marrow Blood】

【Type: Consumable】

【Quality: Common】

【Effect: After using, immediately restore 10% HP and +1 Constitution within 1 minute】

"Giant salamanders don't seem to have good fish marrow blood; the Bai Longyu is not really a giant salamander either."

"But it's a good thing, and it's for saving one's life again." Chu Danqing was just a side character in the battle, but he knew he was a glass cannon.

The restored HP was not as good as Wolf Blood, but he couldn't help that the prefix was "immediately restore"; he didn't know how long the four words "extremely slowly" in Wolf Blood meant.

"If only the attribute gain could be turned into an increase in HP restoration."

The duration was only 1 minute; even if it were 5 minutes, it wouldn't appear so chicken-rib-like, even 3 minutes would be fine.

After putting this consumable away, Chu Danqing was waiting for Dabao to come back.

He understood his situation; the Falling Flower Cave had been coveting him.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but mock himself: "I've become Tang Monk meat."

"A summoning system without a summoned object is really uncomfortable."

"Secondly, I should consider my own situation." Chu Danqing was thinking about one thing.

That was the attitude problem of Xianghua Village.

The choice of the Falling Flower Cave asking for ten girls or him as a sacrifice.

The village chief, Dabao, and others were highly likely to be biased toward him, but there were more than just these people in the whole Xianghua Village.

The other villagers were the real general trend.

"So, I must strike first!" Chu Danqing's expression was serious.

The "strike first" he said was not to take action against the people of Xianghua Village, but to take action against the Falling Flower Cave.

Solving the problem from the root meant there would be no so-called choice.

Even if Xianghua Village didn't choose to take him to settle things, Chu Danqing couldn't do it by watching ten fifteen or sixteen-year-old children be eaten by the so-called Cave God.

Xianghua Village was like this before he came, and it was still like this after he came; then wouldn't he have come in vain?

Since the Bai Longyu could be killed, he didn't believe the Falling Flower Cave couldn't be leveled.

Prestige was very important.

Before the Bai Longyu died, Chu Danqing was just a benefactor of the village chief's family; wanting to get enough fire powder materials and let the whole village cooperate with him to manufacture it was simply unrealistic.

Now it was different; his prestige and reputation were enough.

He acted as bait in killing the Bai Longyu, and his contribution was definitely in the top three.

Then he volunteered to go to the back mountain as a sacrifice for the Cave God.

With the village chief as a mediator, it could be said that the right time, the right place, and the right people were all in his hands, which could be called a great trend.

The village chief was silent; the temptation of Chu Danqing's words was far better than killing the Bai Longyu initially.

"Xianghua Village is sorry for the little brother." The village chief ultimately agreed: "What do you want us to do, little brother?"

"I need saltpeter, charcoal, sulfur, iron sand; among them, saltpeter should be nine parts, charcoal and sulfur combined one part, and iron sand is optional."

"And I need the men, women, old, and young in the village to cooperate with me." Chu Danqing directly stated his requirements.

Chu Danqing didn't know if there was fire powder in this world, but he would use it first.

The village chief didn't hesitate at all and directly said: "Alright, I will gather them for you tomorrow."

"Just a token of my heart, please accept it, little brother." The village chief said and stuffed the necklace to Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing didn't refuse this time.

It was actually another piece of equipment, but it wasn't excellent quality, just common quality.
