Start building the foundation: What is the Southern Xinjiang Corpse Puppet?

Chapter 242 Careful Thoughts

"What are they doing here in my Baiwu tribe?" After their curiosity wore off, the Baiwu people also began to wonder about the four people's purpose.

"I don't know either. The priest only asked me to arrange for them to stay in our tribe for a few days. I will make arrangements after the priest returns from the Holy Mountain." The young man said:

"Who has a spare room?"

"I have some at home. They are all monks. I happen to have two rooms in my house, so they can live there first." One of the tall and thin women stepped forward and fixed her gaze on Bai Yue, with undisguised admiration in her eyes.

Luo Shan and others saw through it but didn't say anything, after all, the other person was admiring it openly.

"We are all monks, so just give us a secluded place." Monks don't need to sleep. After all, when they travel outside, most of the time they just find a place to rest.

"How can this be possible? You are all guests." The young man shook his head. Although his words were polite, his expression showed that he would not accept rejection.

Luo Shan and others understood that the other party did not trust them and arranged for them to stay in the villagers' homes, mostly to keep an eye on them.

"In that case, thank you very much." Bai Yue also understood the deep meaning and did not refuse.

"Come with me, I'll take you to my home." The tall and thin woman walked in front with ease. Seeing Luo Shan and others following her, she curiously chatted with the four of them about things outside the tribe.

After knowing the names of the four people and where they came from, the woman turned her gaze to Bai Yue and praised him without hesitation:

"This is the first time I've seen such a handsome man in my life. He's different from the people in our village." She couldn't describe exactly what was different.

Faced with such undisguised praise, Bai Yue felt unusually embarrassed.

"Brother, are you moved?" Si Qianning used his spiritual sense to transmit the message and saw that his brother's ears were red, so he teased.

Bai Yue's mouth twitched, he glanced at Si Qianning, and replied in a voice transmission:

"Once this is done, Senior Brother would like to invite Junior Sister to have a hearty fight."

Si Qianning: ...

Although he felt embarrassed, he was moved. Although Bai Yue thought that he was not a person who judged people by their appearance, he was sure that except for the sword he brought out from the sword tomb, he had never been moved by anything.

Even the Lingxu Thousand Swords that he had cultivated could not match it.

He felt embarrassed because it was the first time someone told him he was good-looking so directly and without any malice.

"Are all you people from the outside world so good-looking?" After praising Bai Yue, the woman named Ana went on to praise Luo Shan and others.

"Fellow Daoist Ana, you are joking. Everyone who practices cultivation has an outstanding appearance." Ling Wanran said. This was not a lie. When a cultivator draws spiritual energy into his body, his physique will change little by little. Regardless of whether he is a man or a woman, their appearance will change.

"I have never been outside." Ana said regretfully: "I heard from Jue that it is very dangerous outside. The priest also said that we white witches have our own mission and cannot leave the tribe."

Ana looked at Ling Wanran with envy: "Although the Holy Mountain is beautiful, I still want to see the outside world that Jue talked about. I want to make a deal with you, is that okay?"

"I think we can wait until your priest comes back to discuss our deal." Luo Shan said, and when he saw Ana looking at him in confusion, he smiled and said:

"We came here this time to ask the White Witch to come out. If the White Witch Priest agrees, I believe you don't have to trade with us."

Luo Shan now understood why the other party was willing to let the four of them go to her house. It turned out that she had a purpose.

"Really?" Ana widened her eyes and looked at Luo Shan with a vigilant look:

"Jue said that people outside don't welcome us, so why do you want to ask us to leave?"

She was not a fool and could sense the weirdness of it.

"It's really dangerous outside." Ling Wanran pondered for a moment, and finally told him about the demons in the Western Regions.

As expected, as soon as the words fell, Ana said:

"No wonder you came to our White Witch Tribe."

"But our White Witch tribe is not good at fighting. Even if we go out, what can we do?"

The most important point is that their methods have extremely little effect on the demons.

"We ask you to leave for other reasons, but we will discuss it with your high priest when the time comes." Luo San said.

After hearing Luo San's words, Ana's expression eased a little. At this time, the four of them also arrived at Ana's home.

"Mom, I'm back."

As soon as he finished speaking, a female cultivator in her thirties, who was in the early stage of foundation building and wearing a navy blue long coat, walked out.

"Ana, help me when you come back..." The woman stopped talking halfway when she saw the four people from Luosan behind Ana.

"Mother, these four are guests that the priest has asked to stay in our tribe temporarily. They are Luo Shan and..." from the Corpse Puppet Tribe.

Ana introduced them one by one from left to right. The female cultivator in the early stage of foundation building nodded, stepped aside, and let Ana and the others enter the yard.

The yard is surrounded by a bamboo fence with a layer of transparent ice crystals on it. The house is a stone house, but it is covered with a layer of white snow.

"You four guests have come from far away, please sit down first." The woman was not enthusiastic. On the contrary, she was very alert after realizing that the four people's cultivation was higher than hers.

"Mom, there was another earthquake today. Over at the holy mountain..." Ana took out a few bamboo cups, poured a cup of warm water for everyone, and then looked at her mother worriedly.

"The priests will set up a barrier for the Holy Mountain. Don't worry too much. If anything really happens, you, Ana, will inform us in advance."

Although the woman said this, there was still a hint of worry between her brows.

"It must be black..." Ana's tone became heavier. She saw Luosan and the other three people out of the corner of her eye, and then she forced herself to suppress it.

Luo San and his companions were also tactful. They took a sip of hot water and then went straight to their room to rest.

The rooms Ana arranged for them were a newly tidied woodshed and a house that had not been occupied for a long time. The two rooms were not big, but they were more than enough to accommodate four people.

The four of them entered the room that had not been occupied for a long time. After raising their hands to set up a barrier, Si Qianning spoke.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, you just said that you came to Baiwu for another reason. Aren't you asking them to go to the Western Regions to help the human race resist the demons?"

Why did she understand Fellow Daoist Luo less and less? Was his previous rhetoric a lie to deceive them?

"That Ana also said that they have a mission here. Even if they go to the Western Regions, they won't be of much use." Luo San nodded, confirming Si Qianning's words.

"Then what are we doing?" Si Qianning looked at Bai Yue, then at Ling Wanran, and seeing that the two of them also looked confused, she asked.

"The people of the Baiwu clan have special talents. Let me be direct." Luo Shan looked at the three people and uttered two words:

"Luck!"

"Luck?" Si Qianning didn't understand, but Bai Yue and Ling Wanran had almost understood what Luo San meant.

"With the blessing of good luck, find a space teleportation array to confuse the evil cultivators' sight and hearing?" Ling Wanran and Luo Shan stayed the longest, so naturally they guessed it quickly.

"If you really encounter danger, more luck means more chance of survival. Fellow Daoist Luo, are you thinking of using the space teleportation array?" Ling Wanran was shocked and looked at Luo Shan:

"Except for the space teleportation formation where Jia Riyue came from, we don't know the situation of the other two."
