Chapter 87: Return to the Shenlu! Obtain the Divine Bow!
?
These words directly stunned every villager dining in the canteen.
They even defied the prompt, looking up in unison at Su Qiu: "What, you eliminated all the ghosts in the village?"
Su Qiu nodded: "Yeah! The things here are much weaker than the ones on the road; basically, I kill one the moment I see one."
?
Hearing this, everyone was shocked once again.
They simply could not believe whether what Su Qiu said was true or false!
Seeing this.
The middle-aged woman hurriedly ran to Su Qiu's side and asked him in a low voice: "Don't be so high-profile! Tell me the truth, did you really wipe out all the mountain-ghost-transformed villagers in the village?"
"Of course, otherwise would I be so blatant about coming to tell you the good news?"
Hearing this.
The middle-aged woman subconsciously looked around.
After a quick scan of the room and recalling her observations while serving meals earlier.
She discovered that there were indeed dozens fewer villagers dining this morning! Were they the mountain-ghost-transformed villagers, eliminated by Su Qiu? "I thought there were quite a lot of mountain-ghost-transformed villagers in your village; I didn't expect there to be only forty."
Speaking of this, Su Qiu felt a bit regretful.
If there had been more mountain-ghost-transformed villagers, he could have easily farmed more points.
"No, you're complaining that there were too few?"
"If you really think there are too few, go climb the mountain; you can kill as many mountain ghosts there as you want!"
The middle-aged woman rolled her eyes at Su Qiu.
After confirming that the mountain-ghost-transformed villagers of Da Luo Cun had all been eliminated.
Her voice grew a little louder.
"What are Sister Xu and that guy talking about? I think I heard something about eliminating mountain ghosts."
"You really are hard of hearing."
"The two of them are chatting about the topic of the mountain ghosts being killed off!"
"No way, this kid looks so thin and weak, can he really kill all the ghosts in our village?"
"That's impossible."
"That thing has surprisingly great strength."
"Back then, I encountered a mountain-ghost-transformed villager, and even joining forces with other villagers in my organization, we couldn't subdue him!"
"Let's go, let's go, let's crowd over and take a look."
"You still dare to go watch the excitement? Aren't you afraid of being eaten by a mountain ghost that suddenly appears!"
"Afraid of nothing!"
"The commotion the two of them are making is enough to attract the attention of mountain ghosts; if there were any mountain ghosts, something would have happened already!"
"That makes sense!"
Other villagers in the canteen were also attracted by the sound of the two talking.
Driven by curiosity.
These people gathered around the two one after another, asking about the details of the matter.
Seeing this.
The middle-aged woman could only tell everyone about meeting Su Qiu yesterday and asking him to eliminate the mountain-ghost-transformed villagers in the village.
After listening.
The scene fell into a deep silence.
Everyone's gaze converged on Su Qiu in unison.
They could not imagine.
The youth before them was actually someone capable of ascending to the Zhongdian Shanshenmiao and obtaining the Divine Bow to suppress the mountain ghosts! "This young brother, forgive my previous rudeness."
"Mountain God bless, it really is the Mountain God's blessing!"
"Young brother, since you have the ability to slaughter all the mountain-ghost-transformed villagers in the village, it proves you have enough strength to ascend to the Zhongdian Shanshenmiao!"
"Our village will definitely assist you with all our might, young brother!"
"Before reaching the summit of the Shanshenmiao, it would be safer to obtain the Divine Bow first!"
"I think so too; the closer one gets to the Zhongdian Shanshenmiao, the harder the mountain ghosts there are to deal with!"
"Young brother, can you take out your Divine Bow map and let us see it? We can all help you look it over."
"."
Su Qiu did not refuse. He had two missions in Huangcun; after completing the mission of eliminating the mountain-ghost-transformed villagers, he needed to find the truth behind everything!
And to find the truth, he had to have the help of the villagers.
Furthermore.
These villagers were all people who had lived on the Shenlu their entire lives.
Their understanding of this area was certainly deeper than his own; through the incomplete map, they might actually be able to figure something out.
Thinking of this.
Su Qiu directly took out his Divine Bow map and placed it on the tabletop made of several tables pushed together.
"This is not a map, it's a key!"
The moment he saw the map, the oldest village chief in the village spoke up directly.
He had once been to Longkou Dong.
On the mural there, he saw a key identical to the map in Su Qiu's hand!
"Old man, what do you mean by that?"
"Once this map is pieced together, it will become a key. If you take this key to Longkou Dong, you will be able to reach the hidden secret chamber inside!"
"The Divine Bow is very likely to be there!"
Hearing this, Su Qiu's mood became somewhat agitated.
He wished he could set off for Longkou Dong right now to obtain the Divine Bow and reach the summit of the Shenlu!
However,
he was stopped by the villagers once again before he could make a move.
A villager from the mountain patrol organization said to him, "I went to the vending point while patrolling the mountain earlier, and I saw someone who looked different from you take a gift."
"Where is he?!"
The gift bag contained the final piece of the map for the Divine Bow.
As long as he could find that person.
Su Qiu would be able to obtain the final map fragment of the Divine Bow and get the complete key! "I know!"
Another villager from the mountain patrol organization raised his hand.
He came before Su Qiu and said, "I saw him when I was patrolling to Longyintan. At that time, he was charging toward the mountain peak!"
"Calculating the time, he might have already reached the End Point by now."
Hearing this, Su Qiu felt somewhat dejected.
Reaching the summit,
meant arriving at the End Point of the Shenlu,
and there.
There would be an elder from the Feathering Sect waiting to receive them.
It also meant the end of this trial of the Shenlu!
Su Qiu would no longer have the chance to obtain the incomplete map from that person, and the Divine Bow would vanish like a dream.
"He did not reach the summit!"
But!
The village chief's voice gave Su Qiu hope once again! The old man said very firmly, "Reaching the summit means the end of everything, but since the mountain ghost is still wreaking havoc, it means he did not successfully reach the summit!"
"He must have walked to the wrong End Point."
As natives of Da Luo Cun, the information they knew was far, far more than that of ordinary tourists.
For instance, the true summit.
Every single villager knew that the true End Point was not the ten-thousand-step area planned by the scenic spot, but the relocated Shan Shenmiao!
"Young man!"
"Follow me to detour back onto the Deng Shan Jian Bu Dao!"
"If we can catch up to that person, we will join forces to snatch the map fragment from his hands!"
"If that person has already completed the summit and is on the way down"
"We people of Da Luo Cun will spare no cost to help you defeat him; you must obtain the map fragment no matter what!"
Only when everything subsides will Da Luo Cun have a chance at life.
This is the reason why the villagers are willing to spare no cost to help Su Qiu obtain the map fragment!
They,
are going to end the bizarre occurrences of Da Luo Shan! (End of this chapter)
