Chapter 376: Is That Right?
In fact, Shen Yixue didn't look at the withered grass and trees under her feet, after all, when she was dealing with that strange peach tree in the back garden of the Li Mansion, when she used the chaotic qi, this situation had already appeared.
What she is looking at is the officials who are chasing them!
Although she and Lijiao flew to a high place with Pink Butterfly, those people had no way to go to the sky, and they couldn't catch up for the time being, but they didn't give up, but left Baoying City and caught up at their feet.
Moreover, looking at that posture, it is no longer a dozen officials to catch fast, but dozens, maybe even hundreds!
A small Baoying City, of course, there will not be hundreds of officials to catch it, presumably the county lord transferred the manpower from nowhere, and it may even be that the young and middle-aged people in the entire Baoying City have been gathered!
As for the reason, you can think of it with your knees. She and Lizheng have made such a shocking move, I am afraid that she has already been regarded as a demon, and the county master only needs to call for a demon catch!
These people can't fly, but they all have two legs and can run on the ground, Shen Yixue and Li Zheng have pink butterflies, as long as they dare to fall from mid-air, they will definitely fall into the encirclement of these people!
After the tribulation, he couldn't help but feel a little numb in his scalp: he was able to fly with his qi and instantly get rid of the pursuit of the officials in Baoying City, but so many people chased them, could it be that the three of them had to fly in mid-air all the time?
He and Shen Yixue are okay to talk to, but what about Fan Die'er? Even if this person can do light work, but in the end, he is just an ordinary martial artist in the human world, right? Do you want him to starve to death in mid-air?
After suffering from the tribulation here, Shen Yixue's mind unconsciously flew to a distant past life.
The memories of the previous life are still there, but those people and things that are not very important are generally more confusing. But since she came to this Baoying City again and came to Xishan Temple, she inevitably thought of the past.
So I thought of a place.
She didn't know if that place would be able to avoid the people who were chasing them, but all of a sudden, she wanted to see it again.
So, her gaze crossed the pink butterfly and said to Li Tribulation: "Li Tribulation, let's go to Moshan Village." ”
After being stunned for a moment, he turned his head to look at the woman on the other side, but saw that her long hair was flying along her clothes, and two strands were passing over her bright forehead, making a pair of originally bright and clear eyes seem to be confused in an instant.
His heart moved, he hesitated, and the sentence "The villagers of Moshan Village have long been evacuated by me, and they became empty villages more than five hundred years ago", did not say it, but nodded silently.
As a result, Shen Yixue and Li Zheng once again increased their speed at the same time, and flew out for five or six miles in an instant, leaving those chasing people far away.
They can't see those people, and those people naturally lose their traces, and it may not be easy to catch up again.
After a catastrophe, he couldn't bear to let more grass and trees under his feet wither, so he and Shen Yixue took Pink Butterfly and fell to the ground again, and then told Pink Butterfly that they were going to Moshan Village.
"Moshan Village?" Pink Butterfly's narrow phoenix eyes widened, "What kind of place is that?"
Shen Yixue and Li Zheng were stunned at the same time, and then they realized that Moshan Village had already been evacuated by Shen Yixue in her previous life, and no one lived in it, and it became an empty village. Now that more than 500 years have passed, the world has changed, and the empty village may not necessarily exist, how can Fan Die'er, a person more than 500 years later, know?
Li Zheng sighed, and didn't know how to explain to Fan Die'er for a while, Shen Yixue thought for a while, and said: "Moshan Village is the place where I lived when I was a child. ”
Pink Butterfly is still confused, in his opinion, the place that can give birth to such a beautiful woman, even if it is not famous, will be famous all over the world because of this woman.
However, in fact, the words "Moshan Village" were the first time he had heard them.
However, he then thought that the pair of men and women in front of him were not ordinary people, so he was relieved, and Yu Shi did not continue to ask, but said: "It must be a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers." ”
"The mountains and rivers are beautiful?" Shen Yixue was stunned and muttered these four words, but the memories of her previous life came back like a stormy wave again. However, after seeing Fan Die'er's slightly puzzled gaze, she still smiled bitterly and said, "Sort of." ”
Li Zheng obviously didn't want to continue this topic, and directly interrupted the conversation between Fan Die'er and Shen Yixue: "Fan Die'er, you can choose to continue to follow us, of course, you can say goodbye." But—"
He paused, and his expression suddenly became more solemn: "Before you leave, or decide to continue with us, I have a few questions for you." ”
Fan Die'er smiled bitterly, he knew that the tribulation would suspect him, but he didn't expect that the other party would choose such a time to question him.
He immediately sighed and said bluntly: "Except for the situation about the Li Mansion, the rest of the things are not false. Includes ......"
Speaking of this, he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "My past!"
Shen Yixue was stunned for a moment, looked at the tribulation suspiciously, and then looked at Fan Die'er: "Do you have something to hide from me?"
After the tribulation, she didn't give Fan Die'er a chance to answer Shen Yixue's question, and continued to ask: "How much do you know about the affairs of the Li Mansion and the peach tree?"
Unexpectedly, Fan Die'er didn't answer his question immediately, but looked at Shen Yixue honestly: "Miss Shen, I'm ...... It was also a last resort. ”
Only then did Shen Yixue know that it was true that Pink Butterfly joined the Life-Saving Inn, and it was also true that she was ordered to come to steal the peach tree in the Li Mansion, but she didn't know anything about the Li Mansion and the peach tree in the Li Mansion!
The shopkeeper of the Survival Inn did not give him much information, but just asked him to go to Baoying City, find a family surnamed Li, and steal a peach tree that only blooms at night, and that's it.
All the information was inquired by Fan Die'er herself.
In fact, it had been seven days since he came to Baoying City, and it only took him less than two days to inquire about the situation in the Li Mansion. On the third night of coming to Baoying City, he prepared everything, sneaked into the Li Mansion, and found the peach tree.
More precisely, the location of the peach tree.
In the pavilion in the back garden of the Li Mansion, Pink Butterfly waited until two o'clock before she saw the peach tree slowly breaking through the ground, and in a blink of an eye, it grew to more than one person's height. Then in a blink of an eye, the peach blossoms were in full bloom.
Shen Yixue almost instantly thought of the peach blossoms that suddenly grew on the Demon Glacier and had an aphrodisiac effect, which seemed to grow into flowers in an instant, and then countless pink pollen floated out.
It's just that the peach blossoms bloom in the demon world, how can they bloom in the courtyard of an ordinary person's house in the human world?
She wondered in her heart, and Pink Butterfly continued to narrate.
Since nightfall, Pink Butterfly has been lurking on the top of the pavilion in the back garden of the Li Mansion, sprinkled with the kind of medicinal powder that can hide the breath, and waited secretly.
In fact, the first thing he waited for was the father and daughter of the Li family. This pair of reckless men and women behaved almost the same as last night, except that no one came to disturb them at that time.
Fan Die'er watched the Li family's father and daughter come in with a big bundle of flowers, and made the person kneel on the ground before the peach tree grew, and then began to be unscrupulous.
When it was two o'clock, the peach tree emerged from the open space to the west of the pavilion and pushed the kneeling man directly to the branches. Presumably, the person's mouth was gagged, so Pink Butterfly only heard a muffled snort, and the person didn't even scream, and after a few convulsions, the blood flowed down.
After that, the blood flowed almost all over the branches of the peach tree, and then the peach blossoms bloomed more brightly, and the fragrance became more attractive, and the pink smoke began to fill, enveloping the whole pavilion, connecting the two people in the pavilion.
Seeing that person took a few breaths, the blood flow of the whole body changed to the branches of the peach tree, and the pink butterfly on the top of the pavilion was also frightened, her legs were weak, and she almost had to pee her pants!
At the beginning, the shopkeeper of the Life-Saving Inn asked him to steal a small peach tree, and he thought it was a joke, but after making sure again and again, until today, he inquired about the situation of this family surnamed Li, and he felt that it was a very easy thing.
But now that I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that the shopkeeper of the Life-Saving Inn gave him an errand that could kill him at any time!
That peach tree is going to suck blood!
If he doesn't want to steal it, if he gets a little closer, will he end up with the same fate as the person who tied it up?
Pink Butterfly slumped on the top of the pavilion, watching the peach tree drain the man's blood and then absorb it all, when the time came, the pink smoke gathered from all around the pavilion, and the father and daughter of the Li family seemed to have completed some kind of ritual, with strange expressions, and their eyes were exposed to the night again.
The pink butterfly on the gazebo didn't dare to move, let alone steal the peach tree, and even dared to come up with this idea!
Then, the pink smoke completely gathered into each flower on the peach tree, the petals closed, and the whole peach tree contracted as quickly as it appeared in between, and in three or two breaths, a shriveled corpse was left on the ground, and even the ground was restored to its original state, nothing else, only a breath of waste remained in the air.
The father and daughter of the Li family seemed to wake up slowly from a sweet dream, their expressions were full of intoxication, and they laughed at each other again, to the effect that what to do with the corpse and the like, and then picked up the clothes scattered around the pavilion and put them on, and left, leaving only a dumbfounded pink butterfly on the top of the pavilion.
Pink Die'er waited for a while, and saw that no one came, so she jumped down, walked to the corpse, thought about it, carried the corpse, and took advantage of the night to put it at the gate of the Li Mansion.
Hearing this, Shen Yixue's expression couldn't help but be a little excited, and she glared at Fan Die'er dissatisfiedly: "You, how can you be like this? That's a life, you just watch it?"
Pink Butterfly let Shen Yixue complain, didn't say a word, just hung her head and didn't say a word.
Li Tribulation stepped forward, hugged the emotional Shen Yixue, and said softly: "Girl, don't forget, he is just an ordinary person." If I could deal with that peach tree, I wouldn't be waiting for you and me on the night tree near the courtyard wall in the Li Mansion!"
He raised his head, his eyes were clear and wise, as if he wanted to probe into the depths of Fan Die'er's heart: "What I said is right?"
