Rebirth of the Totem Pole, I became a taboo

Chapter 77 The Secret of Shi Potian
After Bai Jiu entered the yard of the Evil Suppression Bureau, he saw several people eating in the yard.

The person who came in earlier was eating alone with a bowl in his hand.

Bai Jiu was confused, but now was not the time to think about it.

Seeing Jia Zhaohai sitting in the hall, Bai Jiu walked over in a few steps and bowed at the door of the hall.

"Sir, the village chief asked me to deliver some old medicine. I don't know how to use this thing in the Shiwan Mountains. I think it should be of some use to you, sir."

Jia Zhaohai looked at the box that Bai Jiu was holding, and glanced at a Suppressing Evil Guard standing beside him.

The man put down his food, walked forward, took the thing in his hand, opened it and took a look, then handed it to Jia Zhaohai.

Jia Zhaohai glanced at the medicinal herb in the box, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.

Are there really good things in this little village in the mountains?

It just so happened that his internal organs that were injured by the shock had not yet recovered. With this medicinal herb, he could recover most of it.

It just so happens that I can also win over the hearts of a few subordinates.

Jia Zhaohai put down the herbs and looked at Bai Jiu with a slight smile.

"I appreciate the intention of the Bai Village Lord. If the Bai Village Lord wants to become a citizen of Daxia, I will report it to my superiors after I return."

When Bai Jiu saw Jia Zhaohai accept the herbs, he had no time to be happy when he heard these words and became extremely anxious.

Who wants to join your Great Xia nationality?

"The copper order has misunderstood you, sir. The matter of naturalization is not urgent. I came here for another matter and I need your help."

Jia Zhaohai's expression dimmed.

"Tell me."

"It's like this. Our Baigen Village is threatened by the neighboring Shizhai, who want to destroy our Baigen Village. Our village leader wants you to send someone to help our Baigen Village overcome this crisis. After the task is completed, I will also give you the old medicine."

After Bai Jiu finished speaking, he saw Jia Zhaohai smiling.

"Oh? Your village leader wants us to help Baigen Village destroy the Stone Village?"

Bai Jiu hurriedly denied it.

"I dare not. My village chief means that when the stone village arrives, you can send someone to intimidate them and make them retreat!"

After Bai Jiu finished speaking, he looked at Jia Zhaohai, waiting for his reply.

"You gave me this herb, and I wanted to help you, but unfortunately..."

Hearing the word "pity", Bai Jiu's heart skipped a beat.

"Unfortunately, the Evil Suppression Division has a rule that we cannot interfere in wars between villages in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, unless your Baigen Village has been incorporated into our Great Xia."

Bai Jiu's expression changed. Naturalization is not a trivial matter. Who knows if Daxia will become the new Shizhai after naturalization?

Bai Jiu wanted to leave and tell the village chief about this, but Jia Zhaohai spoke again.

"But that's after naturalization. Even if you Baigen Village agrees to naturalization now, I have to go back and report it and record it in the register. So, if you can't wait until then, then I can't do anything."

Jia Zhaohai waved his hand.

"Okay, you can leave now. When I return this time, I will report the matter of Baigen Village's naturalization."

Bai Jiu opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

It’s not the right thing to refuse, and it’s not the right thing to not refuse.

Not only did he not receive any corresponding return after giving gifts, but he also lost his entire village.

But looking at Jia Zhaohai's expression, he seemed to be saying, "Since I have accepted your gift, I must do things for you. Otherwise, it would be unfair to me!"

In the end, Bai Jiu could only leave the yard of the Evil Suppression Bureau with a feeling of grievance.

Walking on the road, Bai Jiu said in a hateful voice:

"We are not as strong as others, and we have to rely on others for everything. Just wait, when our Baigen Village survives this crisis, we will definitely be able to become a place that everyone looks up to!"

……

The stone fort is located in a stone mountain and stone forest.

Because the magic in the village is inside the stone mountain, there is no way for the stone village to move to a better place.

At this time, Shi Jian, who had rushed all the way to the village, was enduring the pain and reporting to Shi Potian, the leader of the Shi village.

"Village leader, I saw it with my own eyes, it was indeed Liu Cai, and Bai Gensheng said that Liu Wudi sent Liu Cai and the others over!"

The bald man sitting on a stone chair looked at Shi Jian's painful expression, waved his hand and asked someone to bring a bloody pebble to Shi Jian.

Seeing this, Shi Jian immediately picked up the small stone and swallowed it. Soon, his breathing became stable.

"Sit down and talk."

Shi Jian then stood up, sat on a chair nearby and began to talk about the situation in Baigen Village.

After listening to this, Shi Potian showed a thoughtful look in his eyes.

If Bai Gensheng saw Shi Potian like this, he would probably be shocked.

The image that Shi Potian has always presented to the outside world is that of a reckless man who acts rashly without regard for the consequences.

If he had not been taught a lesson several times by Liu Wudi and the leader of Huaizhai, he would never have reached a tacit understanding with them.

At this moment, although Shi Potian still looked like a reckless man, could a reckless man think?
Who would believe this if I told them!
Soon, Shi Potian spoke.

"Don't worry. I've asked the second and third brothers to check the Liuzhai and Huaizhai. Not only are there no people in the villages, but even the Willow God and the Huai God are gone."

“Even if Liu Wudi is not dead, he is no longer the leader of Liu Village.”

"Also, you only saw people from Liuzhai. Did you see people from Huaizhai?"

Shi Jian shook his head.

"Bai Gensheng only called Liu Cai and two others over at that time."

Shi Potian's mouth corners slightly raised.

"I'm afraid it's not that he didn't call, but that there are no people from Huaizhai at all."

After being reminded of this, Shi Jian seemed to understand.

"Village leader, are you saying that Bai Gensheng is bluffing?"

"Well, even if some people in Liuzhai survived, their strength is definitely not as good as before. As for Huaizhai, I'm afraid it's really gone."

Shi Potian stood up.

"But since Bai Gensheng has called the people from Liuzhai here, we can't fail to give them face."

Shi Potian raised the corner of his mouth.

"Tomorrow, you take the second and third brothers to Baigen Village and continue to ask them to open the warehouse. If they still refuse, let the second and third brothers make a fuss and test their bottom line!"

“Don’t kill Bai Gensheng first, in case the Bai Gen God takes action. But if someone from Liu Village takes action… then kill them directly!”

Shi Potian said coldly.

Shi Jian was excited when he heard this, but then he looked worried.

“But if Bai Gensheng causes trouble, the second and third village chiefs will probably suffer after the spirit descends.”

"Oh, don't be afraid, the third brother has reached the peak of body building."

Hearing Shi Potian say this, Shi Jian's face showed joy.

"Yes!"

After Shi Jian left, Shi Potian picked up a cage that he had asked someone to prepare, and walked towards the passage behind the house that led directly to the depths of the stone mountain.

Soon, Shi Potian arrived near a huge rock that was flickering in the dark cave.

But the purpose of Shi Potian's trip was not the huge rock.

After walking around the boulder, Shi Potian came to a big pit. The pit was filled with some liquid, but the color could not be seen clearly in the dark cave.

Shi Potian put down the cage in his hand and took something out of it.

With the faint light from the boulder, it could be seen that the thing in Shi Potian's hand was actually a fair and tender baby who seemed to be in a deep sleep!

Shi Potian, whose face was shrouded in darkness, put the baby into a small pit connected to the big pit.

Then, Shi Potian picked up the one-meter-high clay sculpture next to him and used its base to press it into the small pit.

A hissing sound was heard, and streams of liquid gushed out from the small pit and flowed into the big pit.

Shi Potian stood up, took off his clothes, walked into the big pit and lay down, submerged by the liquid in the pit.

The clay sculpture that had just been used to crush the baby actually curled up on both sides of its mouth, revealing a strange smile, after Shi Potian submerged it in the liquid.

The huge rock beside it flickered wildly, but finally dimmed.
