Chapter 14 Country Strange Things
On the day when the summer vacation started, Zhaohua and his family drove a car driven by magic energy to Lu County. Zhaohua and his family returned to their hometown at this time every year, and their houses were still kept in their hometown.
The development of Lu County is not as backward as imagined. Although there are no elevator villas that are more than ten stories high, they are also two or three stories high or separate houses. They will not be said to be thatched cottages.
Lu County still lives on the village line. Basically, this street has the surname Li, that street has the surname Hong, and the next one is xx, Zhaohua and their Zhaojia Village are in the middle of the county town, and you can get there by driving for a few turns.
"Little Wolf, I'm finally back." An old man who was rubbing his crutches and was walking enthusiastically, patting Zhaolang's shoulder, very relieved.
Zhao Fang, the old village chief of Zhaojia Village, really watched Zhaolang grow up. Zhaolang died when he was young, and he grew up eating and wearing hundreds of families. He came back every year because of this reason.
"Village Chief, I'm back, are you all okay?" Zhaolang covered the wrinkled hands of the old village chief to bring warmth.
"Okay, okay, Zhaojia Village is now the largest village in Lu County, so okay. Xiaotian, call everyone out and Zhaolang's family is back." The old village chief said to the middle-aged man who was supporting him next to him.
Zhaotian, the village chief's son, is the village chief's successor, and now Zhaotian handles the general matters.
Zhaotian nodded. Zhaolang was the glory of their village. He was the only wizard in the whole village. No one expected that a child who grew up eating a hundred families would eventually become awesome wizards. And they heard that they were all very good figures in the city.
The most important thing is because of Zhaolang. Their Zhaojia Village has been developing rapidly, and every household has built a new house and lived a good life.
Due to its geographical location, the military mages stationed in Lu County are located here, which is a relatively important military stronghold. The military mages do not live in the county, they all live on the mountain and have established military bases on the mountain. Because of this, the procurement of materials has become a big problem, which naturally gave birth to the profession of delivering materials to the military mages.
Because Zhaolang is a mage, Zhaojia Village has such a relationship and contracted the delivery of supplies to the military mage. Although it is dangerous to go up the mountain and you may encounter demons who miss the net, you can't stand the money.
People die for money and birds die for food. This principle works in any world.
In the evening, after dinner, a basketball court surrounded the villagers of Zhaojia Village in the center of the village. This basketball court was built last year. It used to be a place for villagers to chat at night.
Now there are even street lights in the village. At night, the boys in the village will come here to play basketball, but today this basketball court is returning to its essence and gathering people to chat.
Zhaohua and Zhaolang were sitting in the middle of the basketball court, and the old village chief sat aside. This is what they do every year, asking everyone in the village to talk about some of the problems or strange things they have encountered recently.
Let Zhaolang analyze and investigate the reasons. Because there have been monsters sneaking into the village to eat people before, if Zhaolang hadn't happened to come back, he occasionally heard some villagers saying something strange happened, and Zhaolang noticed that he wouldn't know how many people would die.
In the past, Zhaohua was listening randomly, but this year he was already a mage. Zhaolang planned to let Zhaohua deal with it, but he himself helped to exercise Zhaohua's demon handling ability.
"Oh, Xiaohua, you have also awakened. You are worthy of being Xiaolang's son. The tiger father has no dog son. Which department did Xiaohua wake up?" The old village chief was even happier when he heard Zhaolang say that his son had also become a mage. He was as happy as if he was looking at his grandson.
"Awakening Summoning System."
"Summoning System!!!" A boy who was about the same age as Zhaohua suddenly jumped up and screamed.
His eyes widened and his boss looked at Zhaohua with disbelief.
"Ah Chao, what are you doing? You are neither big nor young, sit down for me." Zhaotian scolded this young man named Zhao Chao. It is not difficult to see from his name that Zhao Chao is his son. He happened to be one year older than Zhao Hua. He was studying in the junior high school of the City No. 6 Middle School. He just graduated this year and has great hope of becoming a wizard.
The other villagers looked at each other, looking at me and I see you. What kind of summoning system is the duck? It’s not just the water system, fire system, thunder system, and earth system. It turns out that there is also the summoning system.
This place is too far off. Although the village has access to the Internet, the villagers do not go online. Some people who no longer study also come out early to farm or play games in Internet cafes or go to the billiards room to play table tennis. Even if I heard of a magnificent mage awakening in the city, I would not care about who it was or what it awakened.
Only Zhao Chao, the same scholar, would know what the summoning system is, but Zhao Chao lives in the city. He doesn't like rural life and basically lives in the city. He doesn't even come back to worship his ancestors on the Qingming Festival and burn incense during the New Year. So when he was very young, he probably knew that he had a cousin who was very good at studying and was one year older than him. He didn't know that the cousin who woke up the summoning system was this cousin.
"You...you are the genius mage who awakened the summoning system!?" Zhao Chao looked at Zhao Hua and asked in surprise. No one knew how shocked he was, because he always regarded Zhao Hua as an idol, but he didn't expect that he was his cousin.
Zhaohua smiled and said shyly: "The genius mage dared not be a genius, but it was me who awakened the summoning system."
Akita walked to his son and asked in a low voice: "Why, this summoning system is very powerful?"
Zhao Chao hesitated for a while and nodded.
"Then can you awaken a summoning person as well?"
Zhao Chao felt so sad when he heard his father's words. He knew his own business. He was indeed able to get into high school and become a mage, but he was just going back to No. 6 Middle School. It was too difficult to go to No. 1 Middle School, and it was almost impossible.
Moreover, Zhaotian didn't know the specifics in the countryside, he knew it himself. From ancient times to the present, no one except Zhaohua awakened the summoning system. He awakened the summoning system? He didn't dare to do this in his dreams.
Dongdong, the old village chief knocked on the floor twice with his crutch: "Zhaohua is a wizard, we are all very happy. You two brothers can walk around together and make contact with each other. Zhaohua can also take his cousin with him to avoid detours. But let's talk about everyone's affairs."
Zhaohua nodded and agreed to the old village chief. Although his own magical path was not very smooth, he was happy to talk to his cousin.
"I, I, let me talk first. I feel that there are demons appearing near my house." An old lady dressed in a village woman walked over and said.
"It's been a while. Every night, late at night, I always hear some strange noises outside the house. Every time I go out and see no one."
When he heard the village lady say this, several people stood up and said that the same thing happened at home. They thought it was auditory hallucinations, but it happened every few days, and every few days, which made people panic.
Zhaohua thought for a while, since his father said he would let him try to deal with it, he asked: "Village Chief, the Hunter Alliance has issued a notice recently asking everyone to be as careful as possible and not go out?"
First of all, Zhaohua needs to understand the situation. If the Hunter Alliance issues a notice to ask the people in the village to go out as little as possible, it means that there are indeed demons who escaped from the defense line in the mountain and have not been caught yet.
The old village chief shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of this problem. The villagers have reported it to me several times, but because no one was injured and no one saw demons appearing, we have no choice. People from the Hunter Alliance have also seen it but found no traces of demons."
