Chapter 549: Strange Village
Two days later, everything was arranged, and Xue Wu and Pei Lin set off lightly to find the five-color stone.
The two of them didn't bring anyone, so they rode a horse alone, because Xue Wu had space, and there was no need to worry about food, drink, accommodation, etc., in order to facilitate access to the space, of course, it was better not to bring an entourage.
Otherwise, you have to cover it up.
As for the destination, there is no destination, and the whole process follows the instructions of the Five Elements Beads.
After all, only the Five Elements Bead can sense the existence of the Five-Colored Stone.
Of course, when the distance was too far, he could only sense a general direction, and it just so happened that after leaving the imperial capital, he felt that there were five-color stones in the four directions of the southeast, south, and northwest, but among these four directions, the induction in the south was a little clearer, so Xue Wu and Pei Lin walked towards the south.
Because it is not clear what the five-colored stone looks like, maybe it is very large, maybe it is very small, in order not to miss it, the two of them can not drive the flying kite, so they ride all the way, or simply walk.
After two days of travel, we passed through a village.
Originally, it was not strange to encounter the village, but the strange thing is that it was only evening at this time, and the doors and windows of every house in the village were closed. Not to mention people on the road, there is not a single chicken.
The whole village was eerily silent.
Only one tofu shop at the head of the village is still half open, but it is also about to close.
This is obviously not normal, and there may be something strange behind it.
Xue Wu and Pei Lin glanced at each other and decided to go and check it out.
Now that the aura of the water spirit world is getting stronger and stronger, demons and monsters have also emerged, maybe this village has encountered some disaster.
If you haven't encountered it, it's just that, if you have encountered it, it's better to figure it out, and if you can help, you can help, maybe you will save the lives of a village.
The two led the horse to the tofu factory, saying that it was a tofu factory, but it was just two grass houses, and there were two wooden tables and several benches in the hall, and there were jars, stone mills, cabinets and other things on the wall.
A dark-faced young man was grinding beans, and an old man next to him was sitting on a bench, holding a long shiny cigarette stick, silently smoking a cigarette, swallowing clouds and spitting fog.
"Uncle, the two of us passed through here, and saw that it was getting dark, and we wanted to find a place to stay, I wonder if my husband can give me a convenience?" Pei Lin said to the old man.
The old man looked at the two of them, and was so shocked that he choked his throat, and kept waving his hand at the two while coughing, "Hurry up, go quickly, you must not stay here." ”
The old man's words confirmed the speculation of the two even more.
Xue Wu: "Uncle, we give money, you can take us in for a night, we will leave tomorrow and tomorrow, and we will not cause you more trouble." ”
The old man sighed heavily: "It's not that I don't want to keep you, it's that there is no one left here, especially a beautiful woman like a little lady, I advise you, it's better to leave before dark, and go as far as possible." ”
These words aroused the curiosity of the two of them even more, so they simply walked in and sat down at the table.
"Uncle, what do you mean by that?" Xue asked.
The old man saw that the two of them had to find out the roots, so he had to tell the reason.
"So that the two of you will know that there was a bully in our place, who looked fierce and evil, tall and strong, and the most lustful, staring at the woman, and the person who married the daughter-in-law, he came to the door and threatened to be the first to be the bridegroom, but the people naturally refused, so he made the whole family unpeaceful, and directly led people to kidnap the new daughter-in-law, tortured people to the point that they were not presentable, and then sent back."
The old man took a puff of cigarette and continued: "There is also someone who has no choice but to agree, and he will be the first to be the groom, and the family swallows his anger. Because of this, the whole village did not have a peaceful birthday, and the people from other villages heard about it, and they refused to marry the girl again. ”
Xue Wu frowned when she heard this: "The government doesn't care?" ”
"Tube? What's the matter? He guarded the exit of the village, and whoever went out had to pass under his nose, and if he dared to sue him, he would be killed if he turned his head. Even if he was lucky enough to sue the government, the officials in the yamen came, but they couldn't catch him, and they were either beaten by him or escaped by him. As soon as the official left, he came back and continued to work in the village.
"The official can't stay here all day, and after coming a few times, all his efforts were in vain, and then he simply didn't come. In February of this year, God had eyes and called this wicked man who killed a thousand knives to death, and our whole village was very happy! Who knew that he would not live in peace even if he died, and that he had become a ghost! Every night he comes to the village to make trouble.
"Now the people of the village are dying, sick, and mad, all of them are plagued by him. At first, he was the only one, but then I don't know where he came from to collude with countless lonely ghosts, gathered together, every night, many black shadows appeared in the village, frightened people and animals, and there was a bold knife to kill this group of ghosts, but they were killed by those evil ghosts. ”
Speaking of this, the old man sighed again.
Xue Wu: "Didn't the people in the village go to the government to report the case?" Or go to the Demon Hunters' Guild for the next quest and ask those Demon Hunters to destroy those evil spirits. ”
Old man: "What's the use of going to the government to report the case?" The official messenger is also a death, where is the opponent of those evil ghosts? As for the guild, we went too, but no one came. Alas, I guess I dislike that the remuneration we give is too low, but we really can't make up too much money. ”
Xue Wu was silent.
"Little lady, you look so beautiful, if you see it after that killing, where do you still have a way to live, while it's still dark, hurry up."
The old man waved his hand at her weakly.
Pei Lin took out a jade cup and poured a cup of sweet and sour orange juice for Xue Wu, "Uncle, don't worry, don't hide it, we both have some means, if those evil ghosts come again, we will definitely make them come and go." ”
The old man looked at him fixedly, and saw that he was only in his early twenties, so young, it was really hard to believe that he had any ability.
"Alas, I have said everything I should have said, and if you insist on staying, then I can't do it."
Xue Wu and Pei Lin went out and walked around the village, and followed the yin qi to a beach in the north of the village, where many willow trees were planted on the beach, and each of them was the thickness of a bucket, which showed that these willow trees had been many years old.
The thickest one even has two people hugging each other.
This thickest willow tree is also the thickest yin qi, Xue Wu covered the aura to her eyes, and saw a thick black qi shrouded around the willow tree, thinking that this is the habitat of those ghosts.
Ghosts can't come out during the day, otherwise they will be sunburned by the sun, and if they are exposed, their souls will gradually die out after a long time, so ghosts that are still in the world need a place to stay, preferably something that belongs to the yin.
It's like people need a house to live in.
This beach is close to the river, the water is yin, the willows are also yin, not to mention that there are so many willows here, it can be said that it is yin on yin, and it can be said that it is the favorite habitat of ghosts.
Xue Wu said to Pei Lian: "I'll use it as a bait to stay in the formation, you hide first and don't show up, and when those ghosts come out, you come out and kill them, how about it?" lest they run away.
