"I think the two of you have just arrived here, and you don't know the three monsters in our Miao Jiang region. One is the Miao girl who releases the Gu, the second is the corpse in the middle of the night, and the third is the girl in the flower cave. And we are the corpse chasers in the middle of the night. We corpse chasers have never dealt with outsiders, so let's get out of the way. ”

The corpse chaser turned his attitude and said kindly.

Seeing this, Xiao Yao was slightly stunned. Then he said, "Before I came to Miaojiang, I had heard a lot of rumors about Miaojiang, the four major toasts of Miaojiang, the four seedlings of black and white saffron, and the two factions of Miaojiang witch Gu, especially the poisonous dragon and the witch clothes, as for the corpse and the girl in the cave who fell in the middle of the night you just said, I know very little, could it be that Your Excellency is related to the Xichuan Ghost Gate?" ”

"It seems that my friend knows a lot about my Miao Jiang, and if I can know this, I must also be friends in the rivers and lakes, even so, we can go on the road together, but it is absolutely impossible to look at this yin god. We just took money from their families and sent their bodies back to their hometowns, which are hard-working people, and who in the rich family will use corpse chasers to transport the bodies, and it is better for the two friends not to alarm them, the dead are the greatest. ”

The corpse chaser calmly explained.

Hearing this, Xiao Yao thought about it, it might be much more convenient to walk with this corpse chaser who was familiar with Miao Jiang, which was conducive to avoiding the Witch Clothes Sect, so that he could leave this wizard town smoothly.

Thinking about this, he signaled to the eldest lady to calm down. Walk side by side with the corpse chaser.

Seeing that Xiao Yao and the others were not afraid of him, the man was also very surprised, shook his head and smiled, the bell rang, and continued to move forward.

The three of them walked together, staying at night and staying overnight, and the journey was no longer boring, but particularly exciting. It also happened to avoid the eyes and ears of the witch faction, saving a lot of trouble.

Usually passers-by often retreat when they see themselves, but now some people are willing to rush with them, which is not bad and no longer boring. So the corpse chaser gradually became familiar with Xiao Yao and the eldest lady.

"Look at your costumes, maybe it's from the Central Plains. It's just that our Miao Xinjiang region has very different customs and customs from the Central Plains. The Xichuan Ghost Gate you mentioned earlier does not actually belong to our Miao Jiang, but to the Yudu of Yuzhou, which is the origin of the Ghost Gate, and our Miao Jiang corpse chasing is indeed inextricably linked to the Xichuan Ghost Gate. I'm sure you've heard of that, too. ”

The corpse chaser said slowly.

"I have always longed for the customs of Miao Jiang, so I decided to go with Your Excellency, before I came to Miao Jiang to travel, I had heard that Miao Jiang's corpse is also known as Zhu Youke, presumably Your Excellency is Zhu Youke, but the relationship between your faction and Xichuan Ghost Gate is really unknown."

Xiao Yao pulled the eldest lady and followed the corpse chaser to continue to walk.

Alas, the corpse chaser sighed lightly and replied: "Actually, the three monsters of Miao Jiang I just mentioned, in addition to the Zhu You family to which our corpse chasers belong, the other two disciplines are the well-known witch Gu two veins, but the two veins of witch Gu have always been fused, and they also occupy a dominant position among the four major Tusi tribes. ”

The corpse chaser glanced at Xiao Yao and continued: "The Poison Dragon Sect and the Witch Clothes Sect you just mentioned are both based on Gu poison, and the witchcraft is even more ancient, so they hold the power of sacrifice in various tribes. ”

"Witch Temple" Xiao Yao thought silently in his heart, hearing this name for the first time. It seems that there are too many secrets here that I don't know.

"And the magic of our Zhu Yuke is also derived from the great god of Chiyou, but our spells do not originate from the witchcraft of the Witch God Temple, but from a more ancient origin that appeared at the same time as the Witch God Temple - Chenzhou Dao!"

"Chenzhou Road" Xiao Yao silently wrote down these names. He didn't interrupt the corpse chaser, but continued to listen.

"And the Xichuan Ghost Gate you are talking about is another sect alongside Chenzhou Dao - Netherworld Dao. But whether it is Chenzhou Road or Netherworld Road, it is not well-known in the rivers and lakes. And because of the competition with the Witch Temple, Zhu Youke of Chenzhou Road has been constantly suppressed, and now it has been split into many people, and it can only be spread among the poor people in Miaojiang. ”

Speaking of this, the corpse chaser looked up to the sky and sighed softly, revealing strong unwillingness and helplessness. At the same time, he seems to regard Xiao Yao and the eldest lady as the objects of unwillingness and helplessness, telling a qiē.

"The Netherworld Dao of Xichuan Ghost Gate is also known as the Netherworld Sect, and its situation is not much stronger than that of Chenzhou Dao. It can only be in a corner of peace, and rarely goes out of Sichuan. ”

At this point, he sneered, and seemed to smile bitterly.

"And what really spreads in the world is the Zhengyi of Longhu Mountain and the ghost road of Maoshan Mountain, but the two are now gradually merging, and they rarely set foot in our remote place, and the only thing engaged in chasing corpses is our Zhu Youke and Xichuan's Netherworld Dao, the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain and Maoshan are all pampered, where will they do this kind of lowly business."

The three of them continued to walk forward, and the corpse chaser sighed and said.

Listening to his words, Xiao Yao also felt that the world was really changing, and before, he had read all kinds of Taoist books, but they were all about cultivating immortals and maintaining health, where would he do this kind of thing to drive out corpses.

"Then what is the relationship between the Witch Cloak Sect and this Witch Temple?" Xiao Yao couldn't help but ask.

"Actually, it's not a secret, many people in Miao Jiang know that the Witch God Temple is high, dominates the divine power, is responsible for sacrifices, and rarely interferes in specific tribal matters, but will help various tribes to cultivate Tibetan masters, and the Witch Clothes Sect and the Poison Dragon Sect are engaged in all kinds of Gu poisons, attached to the four major Tusi, it can be said that in Miao Jiang is huge, the real power is in hand, and the small tribe villages dare not offend them."

Speaking of this, Xiao Yao was keenly aware that the hand holding the cane was obviously clenched tightly, and then relaxed, gently slammed the pestle to the ground, and continued to move forward.

"But in order to keep his divine power, the Witch God Temple indulged the Poisonous Dragon Sect and the Witch Clothes Sect to merge with the Tusi, and then squeezed out Zhu Youke's power.

The corpse chaser knew that Xiao Yao and the others were foreigners, and these past events were not secrets, but there was nothing to hide.

Hearing these past incidents, Xiao Yao had a new concept of this southwest region, and while grateful, he bowed his hand to the corpse chaser: "Little Xiao Yao, this brother Zhao An below, I don't know what Your Excellency is called?" ”

Xiao Yao hid the name of the eldest lady and changed the name of the little young master.

"The cheap surname is Wei, the cheap name is not enough to worry about, the two of them are from rich and noble families at first glance, but many of the people I wish by the branch are from poor backgrounds." The corpse chaser laughed to himself.

"Half of the ghost Wei family, half of the Wu family and half of the people, and called the two families of people and ghosts! Why should Mr. Wei be too humble. ”

Xiao Yao smiled.

"I am indeed from the Wei family, but I am not a descendant, but I am just a side branch."

"Half of the people and ghosts, Wei and Wu are the two branches of Zhu Youke, and the Zhong family of Xichuan Netherworld, the Tao family of Maoshan Ghost Dao, and the four major families of Ghost Dao, but the Tao family has begun to learn from the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain to cultivate immortal health in recent years, and rarely set foot in the rivers and lakes, the Zhong family is obsessed with their Netherworld Ghoul Dao, although they will also drive out corpses, but there are very few, and the main ones in the Miaojiang region are Wei and Wu."

The corpse chaser has been alone with the dead corpse for a long time, and his personality is mostly lonely and eccentric, taciturn, and has less communication with the world. But perhaps it is precisely because of this that when Xiao Yao and the eldest lady are willing to walk with him without the slightest dislike or precaution, the corpse chaser suddenly feels close, so at this moment, the questions of the two are also answered, and everything is said and said.

If Xiao Yao knew the thoughts of the corpse chaser, I am afraid that he would really blush.

If it is said that the eldest lady is defenseless, it is in the past, but if Xiao Yao is defenseless, it is absolutely false. Since entering the Miao Territory, especially after the previous few incidents, Xiao Yao has been vigilant all the time.

"Since Mr. was born in the Wei family, it can be regarded as a family of rivers and lakes, and Mr. has been wandering in the southwest all the year round, I don't know if I have heard that there is a miracle doctor here, the medical skills are amazing, and the magic hand is rejuvenated, and it is rumored that he has the ability to bring the dead back to life. It's just that this person's whereabouts are uncertain, and in the end, the dragon will not see the end. ”

Xiao Yao immediately asked.

"Miao Jiang does have a miracle doctor, but I don't know if it's the one you said it was. Legend has it that he was ugly and strange, but his medical skills were very magical, and many people in the village could not be cured by wizards and old priests, but he could cure the disease, but no one knew the name of this person, and his whereabouts were erratic, and it was even more difficult to find him. ”

The corpse chasers returned.

Hearing this, Xiao Yao's gloomy color flashed. I had already expected that it would be extremely difficult to find it thousands of miles away, and even if I dug three feet into the ground and rummaged through the entire southwest, I would definitely find this person this time.

"But if you want to find this miracle doctor, there must be someone in the family who needs to be treated, otherwise you won't have traveled thousands of miles to Miaojiang. Soon it will be the Midyear Festival, and the annual witch and ghost conference will begin, so maybe you can find out his whereabouts. ”

The corpse chaser continued.

"The Witch Assemblies? This is? I've never heard of it before. When Xiao Yao heard this, he immediately became interested and immediately asked.

"You're outsiders, so of course you've never heard of it. This witch and ghost conference is a competition between the witch temple and our Zhu Yuke every year, although the two are secretly competing, but after all, they are from the same source, and the ancestors have set the rules a long time ago in order not to kill each other among the same clan, and hold a witch and ghost conference every year.

"Because it is held on the night of the full moon, it is generally chosen for the mid-year festival. At that time, people from all factions and tribes in Miaojiang will gather, and it will be much easier for you to inquire about the whereabouts of the divine doctor. ”

The corpse chaser replied patiently.

"So can outsiders watch this witch and ghost conference at will? What are they all compared to? The eldest lady was also interested when she heard this, and asked.

"The witch and ghost conference, of course, is a competition between witchcraft and ghosts, but at the beginning it was a competition between the witch temple and our Zhu Youke, mainly witchcraft and ghost road, and then we wish you the withering, and the witch temple rarely set foot in the world, and slowly evolved into a competition of Gu poison, that is, the competition between the four major toasts, the witch clothes sect and the poisonous dragon sect. However, we wish that the people of Yuko can still go to the ceremony, and you can come with me then. After I sent these Yin Gods home, I would get up and set off for Bai Miao's village to participate in this conference. ”

"Thank you, sir." Xiao Yao thanked him.

The two of them were also right about the temper of the corpse chaser, only to see the other party stop, turn around and look at Xiao Yao and the eldest lady, and laugh.

"Don't always scream sir, I'm not much older than you. However, sleeping in the open air all year round is just a little vicissitudes. Call me sir again, I really think I've become an old man. If you don't think about it, Wei Decai is arrogant once, and the two of you can call me big brother, haha. ”

Xiao Yao then said: "Brother Wei! Haha~"

The two laughed heartily, and the eldest lady also smiled on the side.

As soon as the laughter fell, I saw several black-clothed people suddenly flash out in front of me, about a few feet away, just in the middle of the road, each holding a steel knife.
