662 Sharing Secrets
“Then Fourth Brother, try to see if you can break it.”
Su Xiaolu knew that Zhou Zhi should not be able to sense the Interface Stone either. She asked Zhou Zhi to try to break it open.
Zhou Zhi was already at the Foundation Establishment stage and his power was different. He was considered someone who had walked onto the Immortal Dao of cultivation. Perhaps he could do something with the Interface Stone.
Su Xiaolu watched as thorns and needles appeared in Zhou Zhi’s palm. There was also spiritual energy on the needles.
He wanted to pierce the stone like this.
However, after a while, Zhou Zhi looked surprised. “This stone can’t be broken.”
“Fourth Brother, I’m telling you a secret.”
Su Xiaolu lowered her voice.
Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu. “What?”
Su Xiaolu took the stone and whispered, “This stone is very special. If Fourth Brother encounters it, there’s no harm in collecting more. I found some in the fog. When I touch this stone, I can sense the use of the stone. In the eyes of ordinary people, perhaps this is just a special stone. It’s very strong. It’s neither jade nor crystal, but in my perception, this is called the Interface Stone. It’s used to connect the intersection of the two worlds. The Interface Stone can separate the two worlds. If the Interface Stone is damaged, the two worlds will fuse.”
Zhou Zhi took the stone again and observed it carefully. “I can’t tell how this stone works.”
The stones were smooth and he couldn’t tell much by looking at them.
They were very strong, but how could they connect worlds?
Su Xiaolu shook her head. “I don’t know about that either, but I thought that since it’s so special, it wouldn’t be wrong to collect them. It might be useful at some point.”
Zhou Zhi placed the stone back in Su Xiaolu’s palm. He smiled and said, “Alright, I will collect them for you if I see any. You can use it when you need it.”
Su Xiaolu quickly waved her hand. “There’s no need to give it to me. Fourth Brother, just keep it.”
Zhou Zhi smiled and shook his head. “Only you know that this thing has this usage. I can’t sense it, and it’s useless for me to keep it. Its function is to connect the two worlds. If you can sense it, perhaps in the future, you will know how to use it to connect the two worlds.”
If he could not sense the information Su Xiaolu was talking about, it meant that he was not fated. Perhaps only Su Xiaolu could figure out what benefits this thing would bring.
“You’re right. Thank you in advance.”
Su Xiaolu thought about it and agreed. According to Qi Xingfeng, the first piece she obtained had been placed in the Qi family for a long time. That stone had already passed through many hands, but only she sensed its use after touching it. Zhou Zhi was right.
Moreover, she had raised an unknown creature that could chew on the Interface Stone. This meant that this thing was fated with her.
Zhou Zhi smiled and raised his hand gently.
“It’s getting late. I’ll go back first.”
Su Xiaolu stood up to leave.
Zhou Zhi replied softly, “Yes.”
Su Xiaolu took two steps and remembered what she had promised Hu Changshou. She stopped in her tracks and said, “Fourth Brother, can I bring someone in this time? His martial arts aren’t good. He’s stronger and doesn’t have superpowers, but he has eaten the pills I extracted.”
Zhou Zhi nodded. “Sure.”
Su Xiaolu smiled sweetly. “Thank you, Fourth Brother.”
This time, there were many beast roars in the fog. It meant that there were ferocious beasts in the area close to the fog. The danger inside was unpredictable and difficult to control.
If the weaker ones went in, there were more opportunities and dangers, but if they had the protection of the stronger ones, they would almost 100% obtain benefits.
Su Xiaolu went home and fell asleep in peace.
For the next few days, they practiced their swordsmanship and waited.
Zhou Zhi was very efficient. Five days later, he was fully prepared.
There were more than 200 people who answered the call this time.
Everyone was a martial artist.
Hu Changshou came to meet them in advance and left with Su Xiaolu.
Knowing that they might be in for a long time, everyone more or less brought some simple condiments. After all, they will be in the hinterland of the foreign region for so long and could not rely only on dry rations, so the food source would be obtained from the foreign region.
The journey from town was also very lively.
Some of them lived in the Southern Mountain Village and were waiting to meet them when they arrived at the village.
Su Xiaozhi was already standing at the door and looking out. She only wanted to look at Su Xiaolu from afar, but she saw Hu Changshou.
She panicked. She didn’t understand why Hu Changshou wanted to go too. Immediately, she was afraid. She couldn’t care less. She opened the door and rushed out. She called out to Hu Changshou with a trembling voice, “Shou, don’t go.”
Su Xiaozhi was afraid that Hu Changshou would be in danger. She had also heard of that place. There were good things inside, but there were also people who lost their lives inside.
She would rather her son be an ordinary person forever than let him be in danger.
Su Xiaozhi’s shout made everyone look at her.
Hu Changshou also stopped in his tracks. He thought for a moment and gritted his teeth. “Let’s go. Don’t worry about her.”
Su Xiaozhi called him because she wanted to stop him. It was not easy for Hu Changshou to get such an opportunity. He did not want to stop and delay, nor did he want to explain anything to Su Xiaozhi.
However, before he could take a few more steps, Su Xiaozhi caught up to him. “Shou, don’t go.”
Seeing that Hu Changshou was ignoring her, Su Xiaozhi immediately stopped Su Xiaolu. “Xiaolu, Xiaolu, I beg you, don’t let Shou go.”
Hearing Su Xiaozhi’s words, Su Xiaolu stopped. She first said to Old Wu and Gui You, “Masters, leave first. We’ll catch up later.”
Old Wu and Gui You nodded and did not leave the team.
Old Wu glanced at Su Xiaolu and instructed calmly, “Hurry up. Don’t delay too long.”
As for whether Hu Changshou would follow them, Old Wu did not care. He was not his disciple.
With one less problem to worry about, he couldn’t be happier.
Su Xiaolu nodded and said to Hu Changshou, “Cousin, let’s go.”
Hu Changshou frowned and wanted to explain, “Xiaolu—”
Su Xiaolu looked at him and said, “Aunt is your mother. She’s worried about you. It’s better to explain to her clearly.”
Hu Changshou looked at Su Xiaozhi, who was not far away, and walked towards her.
Su Xiaolu followed him towards Su Xiaozhi.
The team wouldn’t stop. It passed them by quickly.
Su Xiaozhi’s eyes were filled with worry. Seeing Hu Changshou walk over, she smiled. “Shou, mother doesn’t want you to go. We’re ordinary people and can’t do those big things.”
Speaking of big things, Su Xiaozhi subconsciously glanced at Su Xiaolu. She couldn’t tell what she was feeling. She still remembered when Su Xiaolu was just born, but more than ten years had passed. Su Xiaolu had already grown into someone she didn’t dare to look at anymore.
Moreover, Su Xiaolu was very similar to Su Sanlang, Su Chong, and Su Hua. They were all so unique. Su Xiaozhi had mixed feelings.
Hu Changshou looked at Su Xiaozhi calmly and said, “Mother, even if I’m an ordinary person, I should work hard for what I want.”
