The entertainer was still in the open space before, vigorously striking a palm-sized gong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Seeing Xiao Bao'er and them, the artist stopped beating the gong and said enthusiastically, "What do you two want to see? ”

Xiao Bao'er: "Anything?"

Entertainer: "Anything." ”

"Let him sing a song!"

"Girl, he's a monkey. ”

"You say he can do anything!"

"Girl, he can dance, juggle, and do arithmetic, don't you want to see it?"

"Let him dance and sing!"

"Girl, as I said earlier, he can only dance, not sing. ”

"I can't sing the song, I don't watch it!"

Xiao Bao'er dragged Yao Xitong away, and not far from leaving, she heard the artist whipping the monkey with an iron chain, "Call you can't sing, call you can't sing, call you can't sing." What's the use of raising you, eat and drink for nothing every day, can't even sing, kill you useless brute......"

The monkey was beaten and screamed, Xiao Baoer just walked forward, and when she heard the monkey's cry getting more and more poignant, and was close to wailing, Yao Xitong dragged her to take the initiative to turn back. The entertainer was still beating the monkey, and the end of the chain of the bolted monkey was dragged in his hand, and the monkey could not escape, so he could only wail and be hit on the back by the chain, and the red vest he wore on his body had been soaked with blood and turned dark red.

"I heard that this monkey can do arithmetic, let him perform arithmetic!" Yao Xitong threw out an ingot of silver, and the artist took out a gong to catch the silver accurately, "Xie Gongzi reward, arithmetic will start immediately." ”

"Wait," Xiao Bao'er took out the porcelain bottle from her arms, "Poor little thing, let me give him some medicine!" Regardless of whether the artist agrees or not, she walked up to the monkey and lifted the coat and rubbed the medicine on his back.

Yao Xitong looked at the monkey and asked seriously: "How much is five plus two?" The monkey drew a "seven" from the card in the artist's hand, and he asked again: "How much is seven plus fifteen?" The monkey pulled out an "eight". He then asked, "Where is the eye of the ghost array?"

The monkey hasn't made a move yet, and the entertainer is already standing between the two, "Childe has asked so many questions, I'm afraid that this reward is a little small." Now that he got the answer he wanted, Yao Xitong made a look like he had no money to ask questions, and took Xiao Bao'er away.

On the way, he said, "You also see it?"

Xiao Bao'er looked left and right, and there was no one in the empty village. Rhetorical question: "Leather jacket, are you talking to He?

"You didn't see anything and gave the monkey jade snow cream?"

Xiao Bao'er took out the porcelain bottle in her arms, "This thing is called Yuxue ointment?" I only know that it can stop bleeding and heal injuries, and can't be used by animals?"

"Do you know how much this bottle of jade snow paste is worth?" Without Xiao Bao'er answering, Yao Xitong took the initiative to say, "The jade snow paste extracts the essence of Tianshan Snow Lotus and wetland intermittent grass, and is made with hundreds of precious medicinal materials, which can be described as a box of ten thousand gold." ”

Xiao Bao'er smiled and put the bottle in her arms, Xuan Ze didn't say that this medicine was very valuable when she gave her the medicine.

"Aoyama-kun gave it to you, right?"

"How do you know?"

"Don't forget that I can do the math. ”

"By the way, what were you going to tell me earlier, that monkey is weird?"

"Do you know that this is a very evil act, in which the gangsters mutilate people's lives, cut off their limbs, take their ears, eyes, and internal organs, and so on, and use them to deceive the sick. Later, it is used by beggars, in order to win sympathy and achieve the purpose of defrauding people of money, beggars will use knives and axes to turn young children or women into strangely shaped disabled people or monsters that combine humans and beasts. ”

It is recorded in the book that two people in a certain place led a dog, which was slightly larger than the usual dog, the first two toes were longer than the dog's toe claws, and the hind feet were like bears, with tails and small. The eyes and nose are like people, never like dogs, and the whole body is also dog hair. This is called 'human dog', the skin is rotten with medicine, so that it is taken off, the second time is used to burn ash and take it with medicine, and the inner eye is used with medicine to calm the wound, then the body is dog hair, and the tail is out, and the Yiran dog is also. This method must not live for ten years, if you become a dog, you will profit for life. ”

Xiao Bao'er was amazed when she heard this, "According to what you say, that monkey is a human?"

"A young child in monkey skin. ”

"If it's a toddler and not a monkey, why can't you sing?"

Yao Xitong really didn't know how to evaluate Xiao Bao'er, this person's focus was really strange, and he was still thinking about why the monkey didn't sing...... How could it be so difficult to tell her something serious? Everything had to be broken and crumpled to be explained in detail before she could understand.

He said, "There are only ghosts and dead people in ghost town, do you know the difference between the two?" Xiao Bao'er shook her head like a rattle. He also said, "Dead people exist, ghosts do not exist, ghosts can become dead, but dead people cannot become ghosts." ”

Xiao Bao'er bit her lower lip and thought for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Do you say that these have anything to do with me?"

Yao Xitong didn't know how to answer, and talking to Xiao Baoer was completely playing the piano to the cow. He sighed deeply and said, "Okay, let's see if we can get out first." If you can't get out, please stand on the roof and shout: I'm a princess, see if anyone cares about your identity!"

Xiao Bao'er silently followed behind Yao Xitong with a deflated mouth, this place is really so evil, you are allowed to enter and not to leave?

The two walked along the loess gravel road for about a tea time, during which most of the doors and windows of the houses they passed by were closed, and it was impossible to see if there was anyone in the house. Wine shops, pawnshops, grain and oil stores, gambling houses, and even flower shops are all available. When Xiao Bao'er smelled the sweet fragrance of osmanthus again, she pointed to the red yarn floating from the second floor of the flower shop, "We've been here before, are you lost?"

Yao Xitong bent down to make a "please" posture, "Xiaoxiao, let you lead the way." ”

Xiao Bao'er looked around and found that the town was not very big, and if she quickened her pace, she could leave with a stick of incense, she pointed straight ahead and said, "Can we go in that direction?"

"As long as you can get out, you can go anywhere. The time for a stick of incense passed, and Xiao Bao'er took Yao Xitong back to the two-story flower shop, "Is Xiaoxiao also lost?" Xiao Bao'er gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Go another way, the mountain is so close to us, how can you not go out." ”

Yao Xitong didn't say whether to go or not, he pointed to a well not far in front of him and said, "Xiaoxiao, take a closer look at that well." ”

Xiao Bao'er walked to the well inexplicably, looked at the rope and barrel set up at the mouth of the well, and looked down at the dark water surface, "What's wrong?"

"Look closely!"

"Wow," she exclaimed, and upon closer inspection, she realized that the undried water stains on the barrel were actually painted. Yao Xitong picked up a stone and threw it into the well, and there was an instant pebble on the dark water surface, "Oh my God, the well water is also painted, why?"

"What does Xiaoxiao think?" Xiao Bao'er jumped into the well without saying a word, and Yao Xitong stood outside and asked, "What is this for?"

"I think there's a secret passage that leads out of town. ”

"Come out, who would do such a thankless job, do you have a brain. ”

When Xiao Bao'er came out, Yao Xitong pointed to the way the two came from and said, "When we walked in this direction, the road ahead was straight, because of this well, we deviated from the original way. He also pointed to an unmanned stall not far from the well, "The road from the well to the stall is also straight, but because of the stall, we deviate from the same way when we go further......

Xiao Bao'er understood, she walked quickly to the stall, and found that there were two more rice buckets at the door of a grain and oil store not far from the stall, and it was a straight road from the stall to the grain and oil store, but the two rice buckets could be bypassed, compared with the original road, they had deviated too much.

She asked, "These seemingly ordinary obstacles have caused us to keep going around the town in circles and not walking in a straight line at all?"

Yao Xitong nodded approvingly, "The roads in the town look straight, but in fact, they are all curves, and if we follow the road, it is impossible for us to get out of this town." ”

Xiao Bao'er returned to the well and walked forward across the well, but a house blocked the way. She broke down the door, walked through the hall to the backyard, jumped up the backyard wall, and saw that there was a path outside the wall, and the houses on both sides of the road looked like they could go out at all. Worried about Yao Xitong's safety, she quickly turned back and told Yao Xitong what she saw behind the wall, "Obviously, it looks like it's already the end of the road, why is there a path behind the wall? No, let's find another room to try." ”

Yao Xitong didn't stop her, the two changed directions, looked for a new house. Guangyuan Silk Village, through the crack in the door, you can see that one side of the main house is a counter, on which there are several thick stacks of fabrics, and on the other side there are two chairs, which are for guests to rest. The house is also located at the end of the road, and it feels like you can see the dense forest outside the town when you open the window.

Xiao Bao'er broke into the door as before, but this time she was deflated, and she couldn't push the door open no matter how hard she tried. Yao Xitong saw that she was panting and a little pitiful, and said, "Why don't you try to pull it out?" The door opened, and the counter, fabric, and chair that I saw through the door were all painted, and there was only one wall behind the door. Xiao Bao'er opened her mouth again, "Could it be that there are still paths and houses behind this building?"

Yao Xitong nodded.

Xiao Bao'er sat on the steps of the silk village in frustration, "How can we get out? Do we really have to wait until half of July? It's only November?"

"It's getting dark, let's go back to the outer building of the park first. ”

Based on what he saw and heard in one day, Yao Xitong already had a set of ideas in his heart, but he didn't say it to Xiao Bao'er. The so-called ghost town is more suitable to be called a ghost formation. This place is a formation laid out by a master, and those who enter the formation cannot go out because of various restrictions, and the eyes of this formation should be related to the number fifteen. As for the people living in the array, he had already told Xiao Bao'er that people can't become ghosts when they die, but ghosts die as dead people. Xiao Bao'er should know if she thinks about it, who needs ghosts that don't exist, and what organization needs so many ghosts?

At the gate of the building outside the park, Yao Xitong called out to Xiao Bao'er, "You take this purse with you." ”

Xiao Bao'er took the purse in wonder, the azure satin was embroidered with white auspicious cloud patterns, and it was seen that Yao Xitong had used it for a long time, and it should be his personal thing. "Why do you give me this?"

"I'll lend it to you for the time being, and I'll pay it back when I get out of the ghost town. ”

Xiao Bao'er stared at Yao Xitong with wide eyes, she asked questions all day today, and she was too lazy to ask questions later, and when she didn't understand, she stared at each other, Yao Xitong would explain to her sooner or later.

"Gluttony said, except for them in ghost towns, they are all ghosts, and the artists we met are ghosts. He didn't find a chance to do it during the day, and it was hard to say that he would come at night. ”

"That artist actually has murderous intentions, why didn't I see it?" Yao Xitong pursed her lips and didn't let herself laugh, she opened her mouth to let the monkey sing, and the artist was half angry at her unreasonable request, how could she have a chance to let the accomplices who were ambushed in the shadows attack.
