Chapter 414: Purpose
The words are cold, but every word is for me.
This made me suddenly feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
But she was right, how could a normal sunny boy want to participate in the Soul Festival.
So I said righteously: "Don't worry, I will help you find out about this matter, and when you are unchained, I will personally send you on your way." ”
She just smiled, and the desolate figure drifted slightly into the distance, disappearing from my sight little by little.
The scene around me slowly dissipated little by little, until I gradually woke up and slowly opened my eyes, only to find that it was dark all around.
"I'm still in the coffin......"
There are still some clothes under the back, but Lu Ling'er beside him has disappeared.
I raised my hand and forcefully moved the coffin board away, and the glare of the light made my eyes hurt.
After stabilizing my mind a little, I quickly got up and walked out, but I didn't leave the room immediately.
Because there seemed to be someone guarding outside, but after listening to Lu Ling'er's words tonight, I felt more and more that something was wrong with Old Man Lu.
I went to the cave in the middle of the night when I went to the cave in the middle of the night, and now the more I think about it, the more I feel that something is wrong.
But how do you get around these people guarding outside?
After thinking about it carefully, I was going to climb through the window, but I gave up as soon as I climbed up, the door panel above had been nailed shut, and it was tomorrow morning to pry it open, and there was no point in going out now.
So in desperation, I could only go to the front door.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw two villagers standing in the corridor not far away, and when they saw me coming out, they greeted me.
"You can't go out on the night of the festival, what's more, this is Miao Village, and the rules of Miao Village are that you can't go out at night."
I asked angrily, "Don't you even let the toilet go?" ”
Because of the unique architectural style of Miao Village, there is generally no toilet inside, so the toilet is generally to go to the public toilet outside.
The two men looked at me and seemed to hesitate, but I was already walking outside.
In desperation, these people still want to follow.
I pointed to the public toilet outside and asked, "Isn't the toilet over there?" Just a few steps, I can go by myself, and you don't have to follow me. ”
To be honest, I don't know if these people have good intentions or bad intentions for following me, but they always make me uncomfortable.
What's more, I'm going to talk to Old Man Lu again tonight.
When I got to the toilet, I looked back as if nothing had happened, and the two of them were still looking in the direction of this side.
Fortunately, the light on one side of the toilet was relatively dim, so I went straight from that side to the bottom and climbed out of the yard from the side of the toilet.
Originally, I planned to go to Wang Song and go with me, but after thinking about it, this kid can do everything, not to mention, if there is any danger again, he can't help except shouting.
Worse than useless!
So I decided to go myself.
This cave has been there once before, and the road conditions are not complicated, according to the previous memory, the cave was quickly found.
But before he reached the cave, he heard a series of footsteps coming from below.
Fortunately, there was a pile of weeds next to me, so I quickly picked it up and covered my body, and turned to bow down.
In the middle of the night, my vision was not good, and Old Man Lu didn't seem to feel my presence, so he didn't look at me at all.
However, by the night, I looked in the direction of Old Man Lu from behind, and only then did I notice his walking posture...... Something isn't quite right!
The toes are cushioned, and this walking posture does not affect the balance at all, but walks very fast.
Could it be......
I suddenly chuckled in my heart, Old Man Lu is dead, this is just a walking corpse.
But when did Old Man Lu die? And when did it become like this?
I suddenly remembered the first time we met, and Ada also said that this person had a strange temper, and especially recently, he was not in a good mood.
Maybe the liquor store was during this time, or maybe it was earlier.
Even when he was at the banquet today, he didn't seem to be a little happy.
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that if someone is willing to do this, his teeth will laugh out.
But all day today, Lu Lao's face didn't show any abnormality, in short, there was no change in his face at all......
When he thought about this, he couldn't see Old Man Lu in his sight.
"What should I do now?"
At this time, I was still secretly thinking, I was too eager to shoot before, which led to being discovered, but this time I finally found a little clue, and if I left like this, I seemed a little unwilling.
In addition, when I saw the back of Old Man Lu just now, I always had a very familiar feeling, as if I had seen it somewhere.
So, more and more thoughts came flooding back, and I immediately decided to follow the cave secretly.
It's still like last time, take out the rune paper to explore the way, but this time I don't dare to use the clairvoyant Dao technique, it seems that it is too easy to be discovered.
So I folded a paper figure, and there were a lot of small Taoist techniques recorded in the thirteenth chapter of Mao Dao, but fortunately I remembered some at that time.
After it was folded, it immediately dripped with his own blood, and the paper figure stood directly on the ground.
This Dao technique was very energy-consuming, and I didn't dare to delay, so I hurriedly manipulated the paper figure into the cave.
It was pitch black inside, but fortunately, the paper man could distinguish the direction, and he vaguely remembered the smell on Old Man Lu's body, so he followed it all the way.
This time, he hardly noticed any accidents, and saw Old Man Lu's back kneeling on the ground.
After seeing this scene, I couldn't help but get nervous, because I saw that there was another person in front of him.
Although I couldn't see the face of this person, I immediately thought of a familiar name.
Cyclops.
He was wearing a wide black robe, which didn't seem to be the same as last time, but the smell on his body was still the same.
At this time, the paper figure suddenly spontaneously combusted inexplicably, and I quickly opened my eyes, turned around and wanted to run.
But after thinking about it, since it is a one-eyed dragon, isn't it exactly what I have been looking for?
So he turned around and turned back and walked straight towards the cave.
By the light of the fire lit by the paper figure, I could see clearly that the figure was indeed a one-eyed dragon.
I suddenly had mixed feelings in my heart, and I couldn't tell what it was like, but I always felt a little uncomfortable.
"You're actually in Miao Village?"
One of my hands had reached into my clothes, and I touched a piece of rune paper in my hand, which was a little more steady.
The one-eyed dragon glanced in my direction, and then pressed his hand on Old Man Lu's body, only to see him fall limply to the ground, like a corpse.
No, he was already a corpse.
"You killed him?"
I asked again.
The one-eyed dragon's voice came like a ghost.
"As soon as you got married, you left your bride and ran to this wilderness alone, so you are not afraid of breaking her heart and pestering you for the rest of your life?"
If she doesn't solve her grievances, I'm afraid she won't be able to get rid of it in this life.
I walked over and had the courage to ask again, "Why did you kill him before you answered my question?" ”
The one-eyed dragon just chuckled, unable to make out the expression on his face, but I could hear him laughing at me.
"If I kill someone, do I need a reason? But you, who came to die, have you figured out how to die? ”
At this time, a series of clues seemed to appear in my mind, and I don't know how these clues were connected, but they cleverly linked the cause of Old Man Lu's death to Lu Ling'er's death.
"I see, this is for your intention, you want to use this trick to collect the man's yang energy, and then absorb all the souls, right?"
Unexpectedly, the one-eyed dragon looked at me mockingly, and asked a little strangely, "Do you think you guessed correctly?" ”
I nodded.
He said mockingly: "No, you are only half right, now with my strength, no matter how much I absorb my soul, I can't improve much, but my little ghost is different." ”
I looked at him, and suddenly I understood something.
"The soul festival is held in Miao Village, so the yin energy is getting stronger and stronger, and finally, you use the little ghost to suck the spirit of the Miao Village people."
