"That's my dad."

Yu Qing pointed at the burly man and said quietly to Gu Xing.

Hearing this, Gu Xing looked up curiously.

He is about 40 to 50 minutes taller than Yu Qing, with a strong build and a body full of tendons.

But if this man is Yu Qing's father, does he know that Yu Qing is a human charm?

Or maybe he is also a charmer?

Gu Xing thought about it and decided to give this person a try if he had the chance.

But having said that, it is not clear whether the strange book will react to different weirdness.

After all, even if he and Yu Qing were in skin-to-skin contact again, the secret book in his arms would not be shaken.

So when it meets different people, will it still react?

Without time to think, they set off.

Gu Xing stayed in the center of the team, surrounded by a group of boys and girls about the same age as him.

The team was very quiet, and this atmosphere gave Gu Xing a sense of vigilance.

And not long after, the team suddenly stopped.

I saw a mighty white river floating in the air in front of the team.

No, that's not a river, but a huge community of tiny white dandelion-like creatures.

"That's hyacinth." Yu Qing whispered in his ear.

"Hyacinths are gregarious creatures that move with the wind and spread the news of its arrival."

"Hyacinths are not aggressive, so as long as you don't piss them off, they're usually fine."

hyacinth?

Gu Xing had heard of this name, but it was about planting flowers.

I don’t know what kind of weirdness I’m seeing in front of me. Is it an illusion?

rule?

Or...a plant species?

Feeling the sudden vibration in his arms, Gu Xing did not show any abnormality, and then asked in a low voice without turning his head.

"How do you know so much?"

"My father is the captain of the escort team, he told me." Yu Qing looked proud.

Not long after, the white river of hyacinths floated away in the wind, and they arrived at the river smoothly.

The river is not big, only a few steps wide. The water is a bit turbid, and you can tell at a glance that it is not suitable for drinking.

"Hey, I heard they found you over there."

Yu Qing pushed Gu Xing and pointed to a point farther down the river.

Gu Xing looked over curiously. He was already in the village when he woke up yesterday, so naturally he didn't know where he fell into trouble.

But when he looked at it, he was suddenly frightened. He saw a slightly illusory human head floating on the water, seemingly still smiling at him.

"Water Monkey!"

With the vibration in his arms, Gu Xing made a sound in surprise.

"Where? Where are the water monkeys?"

The members of the escort team who heard the sound ran over immediately, and following Gu Xing's line of sight, they also saw the illusory head on the water.

But in the blink of an eye, the water monkey sank into the water and disappeared.

But the solemnity on the faces of the escort team members never dissipated. He first said to the other team members:

"Let everyone be careful, the water monkey is still around."

Then he looked at Gu Xing.

"Don't go near the water later. Ask someone to help you carry the water. This water monkey is probably targeting you."

After saying that, the guard member ran to the river and started to be on guard.

"Why do we have to go to the river to get water? Can't we just dig a well?"

At this time, Gu Xing asked the question he had always been curious about.

"Well? What is a well?" Yu Qing was a little confused.

Is there no well in this world?

Gu Xing felt that he had made a mistake, and in a flash of his mind, he made up a random explanation.

"I forgot where I heard it from, it seems to be some kind of device that draws water from the ground."

"The underground is very dangerous." Yu Qing said seriously, not paying attention to Gu Xing's lies, "It is said that there is a most powerful monster living underground. All creatures that fall to a certain depth underground will be swallowed by it."

Is this world so weird?

Gu Xing suddenly felt a little tired.

At this time, I can only hope that the mysterious book in my arms can bring me more surprises.

There is also a coming-of-age ceremony at noon, which is also worth looking forward to.

Next, there was another small talk. In Qingkou, Gu Xing learned a lot of common sense about this world, such as not staring at the night sky for a long time at night, and excrement in the wild must be buried when going to the toilet.

It is said that these seemingly strange and even funny common senses are learned by people from blood, and countless people have died because of these things.

After a while, the villagers all carried water and the group walked back.

There were no accidents on the way back. When they arrived at the entrance of the village, the team stopped, and then Gu Xing saw a square and a huge bronze bell.

That is the morning bell.

The morning bell looked a little shabby, the bell was covered with green rust, and the patterns on it had become blurry.

Gu Xing didn't see anything magical about this morning bell.

Next, people lined up in front of the morning bell, and then walked past the morning bell one by one.

At this time, Gu Xing raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

I saw the morning bell trembling slightly when the villagers passed by. Although it made no sound, there was a trace of black gas curling up from the bucket they were carrying, and then dissipated in the air.

After that, Gu Xing discovered that the originally turbid river water had become crystal clear.

"That's the strange energy of the morning bell purifying the river water. The purified water can be drank directly." Yu Qing explained to him on the side.

Weird energy is the breath or energy produced by strangeness, which Yu Qing had already told him before.

The team passed quickly, and soon it was Gu Xing's turn. He carried his bucket and walked forward.

However, this time, an accident happened.

A low bell rang suddenly, and Gu Xing suddenly felt his barrel begin to shake violently.

He looked down and saw a painful face emerging from the barrel.

This is the water monkey!

Although he couldn't see it clearly before, Gu Xing recognized it in an instant.

So, he immediately threw it on the ground and moved his body towards the morning bell.

Morning Bell can protect a village, so there is no problem in protecting him alone.

Gu Xing's thoughts moved quickly, and he immediately thought of countermeasures.

Fortunately, he responded promptly.

Because at this moment, a bloated, pale arm stretched out from the barrel and grabbed him in the air towards his previous position.

If he hadn't thrown it quickly, that hand would have caught him, and he might have been injured.

But now, with a vague wailing, the hand instantly turned into fly ash, and then dissipated in the air.

At this time, Gu Xing suddenly saw a tiny bit of gray-white mist flying out of the barrel, and then rushed into his chest with unprepared force.

Suddenly, the mysterious book in his arms suddenly started to get hot, but it was not hot enough, so Gu Xing ignored it for the time being.

At this time, the escorts had already rushed up one after another.

Yu Qing's father came to the barrel first, looked at the barrel, then at Gu Xing, shook his head, and said loudly to everyone.

"It should be the water monkey that was targeting Gu Xing. It's fine now."
