Chapter 1009: Underwater Spirit

When I asked this question, the old man frowned slightly and thought about it.

Looking at him, it seems that he doesn't know what the real entrance looks like, or is it ...... Too long ago to forget?

After half a ring, the old man touched his white beard and said with a little embarrassment:

"What, in fact, I haven't been to Nanxun Ancient Town, old man, I've just heard about it. ”

I pouted helplessly:

"I haven't been here, what you just said is true, is it true?"

The old man smiled disdainfully:

"Although I haven't really been here, that's because the old man didn't need to come to a place like Nanxun Ancient Town back then, and the old man was also a famous person back then. ”

I stood at the entrance to the ancient town and sighed softly.

Qianlao used to be a big man, I guessed it a long time ago, and it must be true.

Otherwise, he would not have survived until now with a wisp of remnant soul, and it was the artifact that punished him with the artifact punishment immortal ruler.

It's just the current problem, it's this Nanxun ancient town!

I looked around with some wistfulness, and the small shops and inns around the ancient town were closed, probably because I had heard about the chaos in the city.

Although this neighborhood has not been affected by the villain monks for the time being, the news spreads quickly, and there is no customer flow, so why take the risk of opening a store.

Anyway, there is no one in the scenic spot, and now it is idle, so I walked along the main gate towards the ancient town.

The entrance to the main entrance was blocked by an iron fence, and after I looked left and right to make sure that there was no one, I jumped up easily and jumped in.

Nanxun Ancient Town has a delicate style and a temperament that is more like a girl, but it must be the kind of lady who is beautiful.

There is a small river in the center of the ancient town, and the small river is clear and green.

On both sides of the river are the old houses of the ancient town, there are no railings by the river, and they are very close to the water.

Along the way, you can see many stone stairs and smooth stone slabs that lead to water, and it is not difficult to imagine the scene of the residents squatting here on weekdays to wash their clothes.

Walking through the pavilion and walking on the ancient bluestone, the breeze will blow the fragrance of river grass.

The ancient town is beautiful, but the fly in the ointment is that it is empty.

Silence is like a dead city.

Maybe it's because of the quiet, I can even hear the sounds of animals swaying in the river next to me.

I looked down and saw that the clear water was black and like gathering aquatic plants, and they seemed to sense my gaze, and when I looked at them, they stopped swimming instantly.

But with the perception of my Spirit Yuan Realm, these relatively large underwater creatures are indeed swimming.

At this time, the elder explained:

"Boy, this underwater thing is the water puppet rumored by the common people!"

I was stunned.

Water golems?

Elder Qian continued:

"Everything in the world has a spirit, and the land is called the Yin Spirit, and the underwater is called the Yin Spirit. ”

"The truth of the generation of the spirit is the same as the yin spirit, it is all resentment, but the spirit is the gathering of resentment under the water, wandering under the water all year round, and only appears at night. ”

I see.

Regarding the rumors of the water puppet, Qianlao's explanation is novel.

I casually asked:

"Elder Qian, those people who drowned in the water, were they the work of the spirits?"

The old man shook his head:

"You can't generalize, some people do die by themselves, and you can't blame all the spirits. ”

"And a small number of people, when they meet the spirit, it is the same as when ordinary people meet puppets, their own yin qi is heavy and yang qi is weak, so they will naturally attract these yin things to approach. ”

Listening to Elder Qian's explanation, I already understood in my heart.

If it's the same as the Yin Spirit, then there are so many Soul Spirits gathered here, which proves that the Yin Qi here is also very heavy.

In this clear water, from ancient times to the present, have countless corpses also laid?

I didn't waste any more time here and continued to walk forward.

After a brief look, the general structure of Nanxun Ancient Town has been clearly understood.

Then he found an inn in the center of the ancient town.

The style of the decoration of this inn is ancient, it is the appearance of a small ancient building on the second floor, and there is even a small yellow flag in front of the door, which is written with the brush word "Liuhu Inn".

Unfortunately, as outside, the gate was closed because there were no travelers.

As a courtesy, I knocked on the door anyway:

"Is the boss there?"

At this moment, I noticed the smell of activity in the bungalow behind the small building.

He walked lightly towards me, looking a little scared.

I pretended not to know and knocked on the door again:

"Boss, accomodation!"

Not surprisingly, this person was the owner of the Liuhu Inn, and he struggled at the door for a long time before he asked:

"You...... What do you do?"

At the moment, I want to say that I came to travel, it's too fake, after all, who will have the leisure to travel in this chaos.

So I thought about it and said:

"Boss, I'm on the run, our city has fallen. ”

"Can you help me get a room? I'll pay for it, and I can double it." ”

The reason why I chose this inn is because it is located in the center and has a very good view, so you can see the movement of the ancient town to the greatest extent.

I'm not a bandit, so I don't want to force it.

The boss hesitated for a moment, then cautiously opened the door.

He looked at me and asked:

"There are so many stores, why are you knocking on my door?"

My mind spun around and I smiled:

"Boss, I checked it on the Internet in advance, and your reputation is the best, I believe that you are also a good person, boss!"

The owner was a little fat, not very tall, about thirty years old, wearing a voluminous Golden State Warriors No. 30 jersey with flip-flops on his feet.

When he heard me say this, his solemn expression finally relaxed.

Then he beckoned me into the house, and as he went, he said:

"Is there really a war going on out there?"

I nodded:

"It's pretty much the same, but with a slight difference. ”

The fat boss was not interested in asking me, but muttered:

"Some time ago, a few young men wearing ancient costumes and carrying long swords came over with serious faces to warn us to close the door as soon as possible, otherwise there would be danger. ”

"I'm thinking about acting? hehe...... As a result, the store was closed for a few months. ”

"You're the first guest in the past few months, I'll arrange you a good room!"

Those few people wearing ancient costumes and carrying long swords are either Chen Yijie's people or disciples of other decent sects,

This fat boss has a very cheerful personality, and he doesn't ask about it at all, but it saves me a lot of trouble.

I handed him my ID card, and he pinched it and said as he registered:

"Li Xiao......"

"Where's your parents?"

I sighed softly, "Dead!"

The fat boss showed a sympathetic and guilty look, and he handed me back his ID card:

"At such a young age, what are you going to do in the future?"

I thought the fat boss was embarrassed, so I quickly explained:

"Rest assured, boss, I'll only stay here for one night and leave tomorrow morning. ”

The fat boss smiled.

Then he showed a sincere look and handed me the room card:

"I didn't drive you away, if you want to live, you can stay, and you won't be charged rent!"

"This disaster struck suddenly, and it shouldn't be borne by children like you. ”

As he spoke, the fat boss patted me on the shoulder.

I was extremely moved.

I don't know how long it has been, but in the troubled times, I can still meet such a kind-hearted good person.
