Chapter 357: Just in time

In the mountains and forests, there is a remnant of the mess after the destruction of the two butterflies.

The fresh smell of grass and trees is mixed with a little miasma that has not dissipated.

Every time Xuan Wei walked for a while, he took out the bottles and jars he had prepared before from his sleeve and sprinkled the medicinal powder in them around.

The dog can see clearly, although the medicinal powder spilled by Xuanwei is not as white as flour, it is still gray and white on the whole.

However, after the powder dispersed, it seemed to have a chemical reaction with the miasma in the air, and there was a slight "sizzle" sound, and the color of the powder turned into inky black.

"Supreme Heavenly Venerable, the miasma on this road has been expelled, and it will not affect the villagers to enter the mountain in the future. Xuan Wei said.

Dog Dan secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, for the sake of the winery, he had his wife all into it, if the villagers could not go into the mountains to pick wild mulberries to make wine, he was afraid that he would lose his heart so much that he couldn't breathe. Now that Xuanwei has solved this big trouble, can the dog not be excited?

Not long after, the two of them and a dog came to the place where they found Zhang Juan'er before.

"Xuanwei Daoist, the landslide I said is just ahead!" said Goudan aloud.

"Whew!" Erha chimed in, as if to say that its big gold chain was picked up from there.

Xuan Wei didn't have the slightest carelessness, the big pot of medicinal powder was sprinkled around, and the closer it was to the landslide, the more dense the miasma became, and even the dose of medicinal powder that needed to be consumed increased a lot.

It stands to reason that the Liangyi butterfly, which is the source of the miasma, has already entered Erha's stomach, and it makes no sense that the miasma here will be so condensed and not dispersed.

Unless, there is a source of miasma here, like underground!

Just in case, Xuan Wei did not hesitate to use the only remaining obscurity talisman, which was able to dispel the miasma in the air around him. At least for a short period of time, the miasma at the bottom will not volatilize, affecting the two of them.

"Layman, I'm going to trouble you next!" Xuan Wei said to the dog.

Goudan now has experience, and he is familiar with the road, and immediately carefully described what he saw in front of him for Xuanwei.

"Xuanwei Dao Chang, there are a few half-buried white bones exposed in the soil in front of you, judging by the body shape, it should be human. There are also rusty blades, broken porcelain, rags, and so on......" Goudan recounted as he observed.

Erha jumped to the side and sniffed lightly, digging out miscellaneous items from the soil from time to time.

"Whew~~~" Erha raised his head and shouted, as if flattering, he came to Xuanwei with something in his mouth.

When Erha opened his mouth and put down the thing in his mouth, the dog saw that it was a silver ingot.

The ingots are still well preserved, and you can clearly see the official seal engraved on it.

"Okay, Erha, you are simply a beckoning dog! I picked up a big gold chain before, and now I have dug up a silver ingot, and I will give you a few more days, will you even dig out the pearl overnight?" The dog grinned and praised, reaching out to touch the silver ingot.

However, Xuan Wei stretched out his hand to stop the dog at the right time, and said solemnly: "There is still a little miasma on it, it is better not to touch it!"

Fang Cai's spell only dispelled the miasma in the air, and this ingots were buried in the soil, and it was difficult to guarantee that some miasma would remain on the surface.

Although it is not harmful to touch it, it is always harmful to the human body, and it is better to avoid it.

The dog's half-outstretched hand froze there instantly, and it took a few seconds before he retracted it in a daze.

In order to touch the ingots, but to risk life and health, this business is obviously a huge loss!

"Xuanwei Daoist, then why is Erha okay?" Goudan suddenly thought of something, and pointed at Erha puzzled.

This thing was wearing a big gold chain and dangling for so long, and he still took a silver ingot in his mouth, why was it okay?

"Well, maybe Erha's physique is relatively strong, and he has some resistance to miasma!" Xuan Wei gave a rather vague answer.

To be honest, Xuanwei is also quite puzzled by this, but when she thinks that this thing is still alive after swallowing Liangyi Butterfly, what else is unacceptable?

Erha held his head high, looking like he was praising me more quickly.

The dog complimented him very cooperatively, and almost didn't hold the tail up to the sky.

"If you want to completely purify the land in this area, you have to fertilize and sprinkle medicinal powder everywhere!" Xuan Wei said slowly.

This time, Xuanwei carried limited medicinal powder and could not support such a large project, but this matter had to be done, otherwise it would not be possible for the miasma under the ground to escape in the future, and it would still affect the surroundings.

Fortunately, there are a lot of medicinal materials piled up in the Taoist temple, and it will not be a problem to mobilize the villagers to grind and mix together.

"Daoist Xuanwei, why do you say there are so many white bones here? I have never heard that so many people died in the mountains in the village!"

Xuan Wei replied indifferently: "If it weren't for the people in Dashan Village, it would be normal for the layman not to hear of it." ”

"Could it be the villagers from other nearby villages?" said Godan, scratching his head.

Xuan Wei sighed lightly, counting on the dog egg elm pimple to figure out the key to it, I'm afraid it is better to count on Erha to jump to the sky!

"Do you remember that you said before that there were bandits running around in this mountain?" Xuan Wei didn't bother to play dumb riddles, and directly revealed the riddle.

Goudan's eyes widened suddenly, and his tongue couldn't be straightened: "Daoist Xuanwei, you, do you mean that those bandits died in the mountains back then?"

That's right, if they all die in the mountains, the mystery of the arrogant bandits who suddenly "escaped" will be solved.

"Sledgehammer His grandfather picked up a gelding knife from the mountain, and now he has dug up a large gold chain and official silver, which are obviously not available to ordinary villagers. Combined with what you said before, this group of bandits is the grass that fell after the defeat of the officers and soldiers, so eighty percent of these things were looted by them. Xuanwei said patiently.

The dog slapped his head and suddenly realized.

Then came the speculation of the poor people, that gang of bandits not only robbed the money, but also forcibly robbed a group of women to play with them. And those women who fell into the devil's cave were afraid that they would inevitably suffer from poison and be thrown away in the end. Due to the accumulation and decomposition of the corpses, a miasma was formed, and at this time, a butterfly that the layman had seen before appeared. Many of the bandits lost their lives, and the lucky ones buried the bodies of their accomplices in a hurry and fled the mountains with their belongings. Xuan Wei continued.

It takes time for a corpse to decompose, and when buried in the earth, it forms a sealed miasma source. In addition, the accumulation of fallen leaves and dead branches in the mountains and forests has never leaked the miasma underneath.

The lifespan of the Liangyi butterfly is limited, and when it lays eggs and dies, the miasma in the mountain loses its source and gradually dissipates.

It just so happened that at that time, the nearby villagers were afraid of bandits and did not dare to enter the mountain, because no one had seen Liangyi Butterfly at all, and they did not know that there had been miasma on the mountain.

Until recently, a landslide occurred in the mountain, leaving the buried bones on the surface along with the miasma.

coincided with the meeting, and the egg of the Liangyi butterfly was nourished by miasma and broke out of the cocoon into a butterfly, which was the unlucky egg that was swallowed into the stomach by Erha.
