Chapter 19: Secrecy

Led by the middle-aged man, Lu Qingshan swaggered towards the village.

Along the way, there were constantly villagers secretly looking at Lu Qingshan, but just looking at the faces of these villagers, Lu Qingshan felt more and more that something was wrong.

All of them looked so weird, their lips were bruised, as if they were poisoned, and everyone exuded a faint floral fragrance, and the smell was the same.

But looking at the behavior of these people, it is very normal, not like something is wrong.

The middle-aged man had been taking Lu Qingshan to the village, in front of a wooden building with the most abundant aura.

It's strange to say, obviously this wooden building is not far from the residence of other mortals, and there is no spiritual vein underground, but the spiritual energy is much more abundant than other places.

Moreover, here, the strange floral fragrance that can be smelled on the villagers turned out to be a little stronger again.

For monks, the more abundant the aura, the more beneficial it is for cultivation.

"Village Chief." The middle-aged man shouted from outside the wooden building.

"What?" An old voice came from the wooden building.

"A monk from outside the mountain is visiting." The middle-aged man said respectfully.

Although the middle-aged man is just a mortal, he is very serious, when Lu Qingshan reported himself to his home and came from outside the mountain, he had already reacted that Lu Qingshan's true identity should be a monk.

As soon as the middle-aged man's voice fell, Lu Qingshan heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from the wooden building.

There was a creak, and the wooden door was opened.

Lu Qingshan squinted slightly, looking at the so-called village chief who came out.

This is an old man in his late teens, with gray hair, a little hunched back, and a black cloth wrapped around his head.

At the same time, he was also the highest cultivator in this village, who had cultivated to the tenth level of Qi refining.

Seeing Lu Qingshan's young appearance, the village chief first unconsciously shook his head, but quickly reacted and greeted warmly: "Distinguished guests come to the door, please come in and talk first." ”

Lu Qingshan was not polite, and walked into the wooden building.

However, as soon as he stepped into the wooden door, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the scene in the hall.

In the center of the wooden building, there is a small black earthen pool, and there are many dark spar fragments in the earthen pool.

Dozens of strange plants with black petals grew in the shards of the earthen pool, emitting a strange smell and a faint aura.

That smell was the floral fragrance that Lu Qingshan smelled.

But what really surprised Lu Qingshan was that the appearance of these strange flowers turned out to be exactly the same as the Blooming Spirit Flower!

It's just that the petals of the blooming flower are pink and look very beautiful, but the plant in front of you is black petals, and even the flower bones are black, which looks very weird.

Although he was surprised in his heart, Lu Qingshan didn't show it, and after glancing at it, he didn't look at it again.

The village chief invited Lu Qingshan to sit down and offer a cup of tea, "This is Biyun tea, which has the effect of purifying the heart and nourishing the mind." ”

Lu Qingshan took the tea, but he just held it in his hand and didn't drink it.

"I don't know what to call a fellow Daoist?" The village chief asked, "In the lower mulberry." ”

"Lu Qingshan."

"Lu Daoyou," Sang Ku immediately changed his words: "I heard that Lu Daoyou is from outside the mountain?" ”

"That's right," Lu Qingshan nodded, "I was careless for a while, I strayed into the depths of the Three Thousand Mountains, and now I am lost and I don't know how to get out, I don't know if Village Chief Sang can have a map here, if you can give me a copy, I will be grateful." ”

Sang Ku's eyes flickered.

Their village is located in the depths of the 3,000 mountains, unless it is deliberate, how can there be any talk of accidentally entering this place by mistake?

The reason is very simple, can you accidentally walk from Qingzhou to Ningzhou for a while?

But even though he knew this in his heart, he was very sensible, and he didn't say anything, but without hesitation, he took out a piece of parchment from the storage bag hanging on his waist and handed it to Lu Qingshan.

"This is the map of the Three Thousand Mountains, although it is simple and rough, but it should be no problem to help Daoist friends get out of here." Sang Ku stroked his beard and said.

Lu Qingshan was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly took the parchment, only to see that a few points were marked on it extremely roughly, drawing the topography of the mountain range, and finally using a red line to mark a route to leave the Three Thousand Mountains.

After memorizing the map in his mind, Lu Qingshan asked again: "Have you ever seen a little deer demon with two golden horns recently......?"

Lu Qingshan and Sang Ku described in detail the appearance of Chenghuang.

Sang Ku pondered for a while, shook his head, and said, "I haven't seen it." ”

Seeing the disappointed expression on Lu Qingshan's face, Sang Ku immediately added: "But maybe someone in the village has seen it, I can gather all the villagers to help you ask about the situation." ”

Lu Qingshan was overjoyed in his heart and thanked: "Then it will be troublesome to Sang Daoyou." ”

Sang Ku shook his hand and said, "It's just a trivial matter." ”

"Sangyin." Sang Ku shouted outward.

The middle-aged man who was waiting outside the door immediately walked in and said respectfully, "Village chief." ”

"Gather the whole village here, I have something to ask them."

"Understood." Sang Yin quickly retreated.

…………

However, after a while, there was the sound of small footsteps outside the wooden building, and more and more villagers began to gather.

"Village Chief, everyone in the village is outside." Soon, Sang Yin walked in and reported to the village chief of Sang Ku.

Sang Ku nodded, "Lu Daoyou, let's go out." ”

Out of the wooden building, I saw the open space in front of the wooden building, which was already full of people at this time.

Since Sangku was talking about all the villagers, even the young children came.

Standing at the forefront were more than a dozen monks from the village.

Seeing the village chief come out, the crowd that was still talking immediately fell silent, and all looked at Sang Ku.

This situation made Lu Qingshan a little surprised.

It seems that the prestige of this Sangku village chief is very high.

"Villagers, this distinguished guest wants to find a demon beast, this demon beast is in the shape of a deer, the whole body is white, and there are two golden horns on its head, have you ever seen it during this time?" The spiritual power of Sangku, used in the sound, spread to the ears of every villager.

Nearly 1,000 villagers looked at each other, and not a single one of them stood up to speak.

After waiting for a long time, Sang Ku showed a disappointed look on his face, and said apologetically to Lu Qingshan: "Lu Daoyou, it seems that there is no news." ”

"Sang Daoyou not only gave me the map, but also was willing to go to such great lengths for me, I am already grateful." Lu Qingshan waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care, after all, he didn't expect it to be so smooth.

Just paused, but Lu Qingshan's eyes flashed with a fine light, and he spoke again: "I don't know what trouble Village Chief Sang is in?" Anyone who tells me that if I can help, they will do their best. ”

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

He obviously didn't know Sangku, but Sangku was so enthusiastic about him, either he had other plans for him, or he had something to ask for.

With the gap between the two cultivations, it is obvious that the latter is a little more likely.

was exposed by Lu Qingshan's words, Sang Ku's eyes flickered, and he no longer cared about Zuoyan, so he simply confessed frankly, "The old man does have a thing, and he wants to ask Lu Daoyou to help." ”

Lu Qingshan didn't say a word and waited for the following.

Sang Ku sorted out his thoughts and said, "Lu Daoyou must be very curious, why can we survive in such a small and weak village in such a place full of demon beasts, right?" ”
