Chapter 173: The Difference of Carrying the Sky An Unsolvable Mystery
The two of them entered the vast mountains, walked for a long time, and finally saw a small teahouse, the two of them were so pleasantly surprised, they immediately raised their feet and ran towards the small teahouse, put the burden on the table, and then sat down on the stool!
"Wow!" Luan Su couldn't help but feel satisfied, as soon as he sat down, his feet were completely liberated! That comfortable feeling was really unprecedented!"Xiao Er! Serve tea!" Luo Muli snapped his fingers at the shopkeeper, and then relaxed with all his heart, beating his shoulders and legs, shaking his neck, straightening his arms and moving his muscles.
"Two guest officers, the tea is here!" The shopkeeper smiled and served two bowls of tea, and then put the teapot on the table, Luo Muli and Luan Su didn't care about 3721 and directly picked up the tea bowl and drank it, drank it and poured it, drank it and poured it, and after going back and forth three or four times, the two finally returned to normal, and a satisfied smile spread on their faces.
"Two guest officers, where did you come from?" The shopkeeper looked at Luo Muli and Luan Sufeng's servants, and knew that they must not be from the Northern Barbarians, so he asked out of curiosity.
"We are from Dongchen. Luan Su immediately replied, Luo Muli didn't stop him, and the shopkeeper was very surprised, "You are from Dongchen, then why did you come to Beiman?"
"Well, let's just come and see what the North Barbarians look like when the pupil door opens. Luo Muli paused, and then replied.
"Oh! I see. The shopkeeper nodded, the curiosity in his eyes suddenly disappeared, and then a sigh came up, "Alas, then it's not the right time for you to come." ”
Luo Muli and Luan Su looked at each other when they heard this, "What's wrong?" Luo Muli put down the tea bowl and turned his head to look at the shopkeeper, "Could it be that something happened to Beiman?"
"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that the city hasn't been particularly peaceful lately. ”
"What's wrong with the Sky City?"
"Some time ago, someone in Zaikong City suddenly contracted a strange disease and couldn't wake up, and many doctors were helpless. ”
"Is that dead?" Luan Su's eyes widened, and the shopkeeper shook his head, "No, I just can't wake up, but it is said that those people's breathing and pulse are very normal, but they just can't wake up." ”
"And then!"
"Then more and more people have this strange disease, I heard a doctor last time that this disease is contagious, and now it is quiet in the empty city, many people have this disease and can't wake up at home! Originally, when the pupil door was opened last month, it was the most lively time in the empty city, but because of this strange disease, the former prosperity of the empty city no longer existed, and many people in the demon world did not dare to go to the empty city. ”
"So strange?" Luan Su was stunned again, while Luo Muli fell into deep thought, quietly thinking for a long time, and then she asked, "Did anyone who got these strange diseases in Zaikong City die?"
The shopkeeper shook his head, "No." ”
"And what about their families? Are they all infected with this strange disease and never wake up?"
The shopkeeper shook his head again, "No, this is also one of the very strange places, there are many families that only nearly half of the people are infected with this disease, but the others are fine." ”
"This is too weird...... Luo Muli frowned slightly, "Could it be that someone poisoned it?"
"But those people didn't die. ”
"Miss...... Such...... Are we still going to Zaikong City?" After hearing these things, Luan Su suddenly felt a trace of panic in her heart, and hurriedly flashed a pair of watery eyes and looked at Luo Muli pitifully, she raised her eyebrows, "What, are you afraid?" Who said with great interest that he had always wanted to come to Beiban to see!?"
"No, Miss, I just think that the empty city is so dangerous now, let's go, aren't we sent to death? If we catch that kind of disease, we won't be able to wake up!" Luan Su's eyes widened, her mouth pouted, and her face was nervous and scared, just like a poor guinea pig, which made people feel pity.
"It's because it's strange that we want to see it even more!" Luo Muli said as a matter of course, Luan Su was instantly deflated, and looked at Luo Muli again with a hint of pleading, hoping that she would change her mind, but Luo Muli looked at Luan Su with a fixed gaze, "Don't worry, I have green forest beads, plus the two of us have mana, what are you afraid of?"
"This ...... Quite right. Luan Sune nodded.
"The courage of these two girls is commendable. The shopkeeper couldn't help laughing, Luo Muli glanced at him, and then looked at the location where his teahouse was located, there were mountains all around, and there was a forest in front of the teahouse.
"Drunken Mountain!"
"Then do you know how to get around the empty city?"
"Do you see the woods in front of you?" Shopkeeper stretched out his hand and pointed forward, Luo Muli nodded, and he said: "After passing through the forest in front, you will arrive at the foot of the sacrificial and mountain, there is a small village there, you stand at the entrance of the village and walk south, and you can almost reach Zaikong City after walking ten miles." ”
"It's so far away!" Luan Suyi was so shocked that his jaw was about to drop when he heard Shili Lu, and Luo Muli first trembled his eyes, then pretended to be calm and took a sip of tea, and asked cautiously, "Then we shouldn't be far from that small village, right?"
"About three or four miles, not far, not far. Xiao Er waved his hand, Luo Muli breathed a sigh of relief instantly, and the shopkeeper looked at the two of them with a loveless expression, a little curious, "You are from Dongchen, why don't you take a carriage?"
"Hehe......" Luan Su said with a dry smile, "The coachman, took us to Beiban and left, saying that he didn't want to enter this big mountain, and he didn't do anything to give him any amount of silver, after listening to what you said, I guess he should also be afraid of the strange illness in Zaikong City." ”
"I see. Xiao Er pursed his lips, and after taking a few more sips of water, Luo Muli and Luan Su continued to walk forward with their burdens, "Passing through this forest, it should be the sacrifice and mountain that Xiao Er said." ”
Luo Muli was a little unsure, turned her head and asked Luan Su, she nodded, "Well, he said that there is a small village at the foot of that mountain, and the south of the village is Zaikong City." Luo Muli nodded, and before he could speak, Luan Su said: "Miss, if the environment in that village is not bad for a while, let's find an inn to rest there for one night." ”
"It's okay, by the way, let's ask the people in the village about the topography of the Beiban and find out the direction of the six mountain ranges, so that we won't have to have trouble going to the pupil gate of Mengze Mountain. ”
"Yes. Luan Su nodded, and then the two of them sped up their pace, and in the north of Zaikong City, after Lin Shuihan and Nankong Qian went down the mountain, they directly cast the spell and returned to the village at the foot of the mountain, after arriving home, Lin Shuihan couldn't wait to find Lin Shu, but there was no whereabouts of her in the whole family, he was very anxious, so he looked around for people to inquire, and Nankong Qian also followed him.
Later, a villager told him that Lin Shu had gone out with a man earlier, and he hadn't returned yet, so Lin Shuihan subconsciously asked him who the man was, but unfortunately the villager shook his head and said he didn't know.
In the blink of an eye, four years have passed, everything in the family has not changed, as if it is still the same as when he left, Lin Shuihan sat on the small bamboo chair in the courtyard, looking uneasy, now his heart is all on Lin Shu's safety, and he has no intention of observing the situation at home, but it is the south and the sky, and he has been going back and forth in Lin Shuihan's house, moving forward and coming out, and seems to feel very novel about his home.
Lin Shuihan's home is located in a deep forest in the northwest of the village, the environment here is empty, the air is fragrant, the fallen leaves are scattered, the yard in front of the door is fenced, on the left side of the door, is their stove, the stove is just a simple grass hut built on the stove, the simple can not be simpler, and the whole yard, there is only a palm-sized table and a few bamboo chairs.
As soon as Nankong sat down, the chair still creaked and creaked, which made him stunned and very unaccustomed.
"Don't worry, your sister will be fine. Looking at his sad face, Nan Kongqian didn't know how to comfort him, so he had to repeat this sentence.
Lin Shuihan glanced at him and smiled slightly, "I'm just thinking, who is the person who took my sister? My sister never got too close to people before, and there were few people in the village, I really couldn't understand why she left with a man." ”
"Maybe it's a friend your sister has known in the past few years, you also know that it's not easy for a girl to be alone at home, don't think about it, just ask when your sister comes back!"
Hearing Nan Kongqian say this, Lin Shuihan also felt that there was some truth, yes! After being away for so long, it was always inconvenient for my sister to live at home alone, maybe that man often helped her sister!
Thinking of this, his uneasy heart finally calmed down a little, looked up at the sky, and found that it was still early at this time, so he said to Nankong Qian: "Nankong Qian, otherwise let's go out for a walk, and by the way, you can also inquire about my sister's whereabouts, what do you think!"
"Okay!" Nankong nodded lightly, and then they got up and left, although the village is not big, but there are many people, the houses are lined up one after another, every household is like a market, it is very lively, some people are grinding beans, some people are cutting vegetables and cooking, some of the food in the pot is steaming, some of the stoves are full of smoke, and some people are playing at the door, laughter is endless, and some, Nankong Qian looked at it for a long time and did not know what they were doing.
