Chapter 7 Another Death

"Isn't this just a small space that you carry with you? Can it actually awaken this kind of strange skill?"

Zhao Xiaoxiao was amazed.

Zhou Qingshan warned, "Xiaoxiao, this is indeed amazing. Ordinary magic is fine, but this space magic is unheard of. Even if you just become a businessman, you can make a fortune. You are one of us, don't let others know."

He paused, staring firmly into Zhao Xiaoxiao's eyes, his tone full of trust:
"I believe you!"

Zhao Xiaoxiao had never heard of this before, and her cheeks involuntarily turned red.

She had followed the young master since he was six years old. Now he had grown up, sixteen years old, and she was fourteen, just the right age for marriage.

Having taken care of the young master's daily life over the years, Zhao Xiaoxiao has already regarded herself as the young master's person in her heart.

Under Zhou Qingshan's encouragement, Zhao Xiaoxiao read books and learned some knowledge. With her father's constant reminders, she knew how few kind-hearted people like Xiao Langjun could be found in this cruel world.

Even if she could only be a concubine of the young master, it was a blessing she had earned in her previous life.

"I promise that the fact that you have awakened a magical power is known to heaven and earth, and I will never let anyone else know. If you break your oath, you will be struck by lightning!"

Zhao Xiaoxiao immediately raised her hand and swore to the sky with a serious and determined expression.

"Not even Daddy!"

She thought about it and added.

Zhou Qingshan looked at the little thing in front of him who was swearing to the sky with a serious face, and gently rubbed her hair, his eyes full of pampering:
"I can't bear it."

Over the years, he has already integrated into this world, and he is very clear about Zhou's mother's intention in arranging Zhao Xiaoxiao for him, and he does not reject it.

For the Zhou family, no, for all life, continuing the bloodline is a top priority!
These are instincts engraved in our genes.

However, Zhou Qingshan is a modern man who knows the risks of women giving birth early. He wants to wait until Zhao Xiaoxiao's body is fully developed before having children, which is around 17 or 18 years old.

This is also the reason why he is not sleeping with Zhao Xiaoxiao now.

The two of them were affectionate for a moment, and Zhou Qingshan took out a hat and put it on, preparing to go out.

At this time, Zhao Xiaoxiao suddenly asked: "Young Master, can I enter that magical space?"

Zhou Qingshan heard this and said, "I'll try."

After saying that, he raised his hand and placed it on Zhao Xiaoxiao's shoulder, his mind turning.

quite a while.

Zhao Xiaoxiao blinked and found herself still in the same place, with a look of disappointment on her face.

"It seems that it is not possible."

Zhou Qingshan withdrew his hand from Zhao Xiaoxiao's shoulder, feeling a little disappointed.

Zhou Qingshan led Xiaoxiao and Zhou Shiqi out of the inner courtyard.

Braving the wind and snow, we turned a corner and entered a small courtyard with a row of houses. This was the training and resting residence of the guard team.

As soon as Zhou Qingshan and others stepped into the house, a strong smell of herbs hit their noses.

After closing the door to block the wind and snow, I saw Zhao Gang leading people to change the dressings for the wounded. Beside them, a middle-aged man in his forties with an elegant temperament stood with his hands behind his back, quietly supervising the entire dressing change process.

The middle-aged doctor was wearing a simple robe and had a slightly thin face. The most eye-catching thing was his frosty silver hair that was totally inconsistent with his age.

This person is none other than Dr. Mo, the only doctor in Shengfeng Territory.

Zhou Qingshan stepped forward, bowed, and greeted, "Master Mo, Uncle Zhao."

"Xiao Langjun."

When Zhao Gang and the members of the escort team saw the visitor, they responded respectfully.

Zhou Qingshan nodded one by one. Doctor Mo next to him looked at Zhou Qingshan, slightly stunned, with curiosity and surprise in his eyes:
"My dear, you look so good today. It's beyond my expectation."

The injuries from being hit by the strange beast were not serious because of the protection of the guards. The main reason for Zhou Qingshan's coma was that he was weak and his lungs were seriously injured after the serious illness.

This disease cannot withstand the cold, and every winter is like a year for Zhou Qingshan. In serious cases, he may even cough up blood.

As a result, Zhou Qingshan would not step out of the door unless it was a special situation.

Zhou Qingshan said casually: "I took Master Mo's medicine yesterday and had a good sleep. I don't know why I felt a lot more relaxed when I woke up this morning."

The red-tailed golden carp is indeed a spiritual fish with a trace of dragon blood. It is only the size of a thumb but has such an effect. His whole body is still warm now, so he is naturally not as afraid of cold as before.

Then, Zhou Qingshan looked at the wounded man lying on the bed and asked, "How is the situation?"

Doctor Mo looked at Zhou Qingshan curiously again, but did not ask the reason and replied:
"Luckily it's winter, so the injury won't get any worse. I just need to stay in bed for two weeks."

Zhou Qingshan nodded and whispered, "Xiaoxiao, let grandma kill a few chickens and stew chicken soup for everyone to nourish their bodies."

After saying that, he looked at Zhao Gang standing beside him and was about to ask about what he had told him yesterday.

"Captain Zhao, something bad has happened. Something bad has happened."

At this moment, urgent shouts suddenly came from outside.

Then, an old man with a panicked look rushed into the house.

He looked at Zhou Qingshan in surprise and asked in confusion, "Young Master, why are you here?"

Zhou Qingshan looked at Manager Zhang and asked, "What happened?"

Manager Zhang took a few deep breaths and said in a trembling voice, "Another person has died."

Zhao Gang stood up and frowned as he said, "Didn't I tell you to inform everyone not to leave the spiritual realm in the next few days?"

Manager Zhang quickly said, "No, it was that strange beast that sneaked into the spiritual realm last night and ate a family! Now the farmers are in a panic."

"what?!"

Everyone present was suddenly shocked when they heard this.

"Something's wrong."

Zhou Qingshan said in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhao, bring two people with me to check the situation."

You know, a 'strange beast' that enters the spiritual realm is equivalent to a fish going onto land. Although it is not as exaggerated as a fish being unable to survive on land, the 'natural talents and skills' of the strange beast will be greatly reduced, and it can usually only exert 50% of its strength!
But without the blessing of natural talents and supernatural powers and the fog blocking the view.

This "strange beast" is only slightly stronger than ordinary beasts. It only takes a few well-trained young men who can remain calm in the face of danger and hold spears in hand to easily surround and kill it.

Therefore, except for some fierce and powerful beasts that dare to "go ashore" to eat people, other beasts can only wander outside the spiritual realm at most.

That strange beast was unable to wipe out Zhou Qingshan and his group outside the spiritual realm, so it naturally couldn't be a ferocious beast of a certain grade.

"Here."

Zhao Gang responded immediately, then looked at a young man next to him and said, "Da Meng, you stay with Mo Lao to look after the brothers. Seventeen and Thirteen, take your weapons and let's go."

"Here!"

Xie Meng clasped his fists in response.

Zhou Shiqi and another young man named Sanzi next to him quickly put on a layer of leather armor and picked up spears and large shields.

Seeing that everything was ready, Zhao Gang glanced at Zhou Qingshan and hesitated a little:
"My dear, your body"

Zhou Qingshan did not hide it either, patted his chest lightly and said:
"It's okay, let's go."
