Chapter 103: Shadowless Peach Blossom Miasma
"It seems that this is Peach Blossom Valley!"
Liu Xia did not settle down, and carefully looked at the big stone and the blood-red characters on the big stone.
"Brother! What to do?! ”
The little fat man circled around the big rock a few times, "Shall we go in now?!" ”
"If you go in, you will definitely go in!"
Yanagi Buhui pondered for a moment and said, "However, we have to be prepared, we must ensure that every step of the way, to ensure that any one of us in this team can go in and come out safely!" ”
"In the Peach Blossom Valley in the Peach Blossom Mountain, only in and out of the Peach Blossom Valley; The demon laughs in the miasma, and the ghost cries at night under the peach tree. ”
Ye Mengfei suddenly hummed, like a poem but not a poem, like a song but not a song, it sounded very weird.
Yanagi Buhui was stunned in his heart, isn't this the local proverb that Lao Luo said?!
How did Ye Mengfei know?!
I don't think I told her this yet, right?!
He thought about it, too, I had heard it long before Lao Luo said it.
Since I've heard of it all, and Ye Mengfei came here about the same time as me, it should be easy for her to hear about it.
"Sister Meng Fei, are you singing a song?!"
The little fat man asked suddenly.
"It's not a song, it should be a common saying of the local people!"
Ye Mengfei looked back at the little fat man, "What's wrong?!" Am I not singing well?! ”
"It's not ... It's nice to hear, it's just... ”
The little fat man said hesitantly: "Sounds a little crazy! ”
"Hmmm! Well! Not bad! Not bad! ”
Ye Mengfei nodded again and again: "It seems that Xiaopang has indeed listened attentively, and he can appreciate the charm of it!" Actually, that's what it's talking about, Peach Blossom Valley! ”
"Are you talking about Peach Blossom Valley?! So amazing?! ”
The little fat man's eyes widened excitedly, "Sister Mengfei, what did the song say about here?" Speak up and listen to it! ”
He heard the charm of the song, but he didn't understand the meaning of the lyrics.
"Well, this song means that there is a Peach Blossom Valley in Peach Blossom Mountain, which is very dangerous, and there are always only people who go in, and people who don't come out, which means that as long as you go in, don't think about coming out! The last two sentences, in fact, I'm a little unsure of what exactly it means, the miasma is laughing in the daytime, and the ghost is crying at night under the peach tree. ”
Ye Mengfei explained, falling into deep thought.
"Could it be that Peach Blossom Valley is full of miasma, and there are monsters smiling in broad daylight? There's a devil crying under the peach tree?! ”
Yanagishita Buhui couldn't help but interject.
"Hahahaha! Your translation, this explanation, is also absolute! ”
Everyone laughed out loud at Yanagishita's unfavorable explanation.
"Brother, then tell me, why are the monsters smiling in broad daylight, what's so happy? Is it that as long as it is daytime, youkai will smile? ”
The little fat man asked: "It doesn't seem to be quite right, it seems that I heard that the demons and monsters are all yin, and they belong to yang during the day, and if the yang energy is too heavy, the ghosts will not be able to stand it, so they can only hide, and when the yin is heavy at night, they can come out to move." You say this monster is also a bit funny, in broad daylight, what are you doing here?! Isn't it scary?! Hahahaha! ”
The little fat man said as he was amused by his own words.
"Besides, it seems that the peach tree in our hometown can ward off evil spirits and exorcise ghosts. In ancient times, Taoist priests used peach wood swords to drive away ghosts, and the peach tree should be the nemesis of ghosts, and ghosts should be able to hide when they see the peach tree, why would they cry under the peach tree?! ”
Xiao Zhi also said on the side: "Brother, do you have such customs or laws over there?!" ”
"Hmm!"
Yanagishita Buhui nodded, "We have a similar statement there, peach wood is indeed to ward off evil spirits and exorcise ghosts." Not to mention that there is such a saying now, even the ancients thought so, for example, there is a cloud in ancient poetry: thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old charm. The peach charm mentioned in it is actually made of peach wood. ”
"So, I think this proverb like a nursery rhyme, or a colloquialism, may be exaggerated."
He paused for a moment and said, "Looking at the terrain and feng shui here, there are indeed some weirdness, and in the depths of the valley, it should not be ruled out that there will be dangerous factors." But I think that as long as we are cautious, step by step, and move forward steadily, we should still be able to find out. What do you say?! ”
"Yes! Elder brother! ”
The little fat man said, "I'll wait for your order, and I'll rush into the valley!" ”
His face was eager to try, "What danger can there be?!"
"Chubby, don't take it lightly!"
Yanagishita Buhui looked at the little fat man's eyes and said seriously, "If you don't say anything else, there will definitely be miasma, especially peach blossom miasma." ”
"That's right! Yanagishita is right! There will definitely be a miasma in it, and inside the miasma, there may be something even more sinister! ”
"What do you mean by miasma?!"
The little fat man touched the back of his head and asked embarrassedly.
"To put it simply, miasma is a kind of poisonous gas, and when a person inhales it, he will be poisoned, and then he will die of poison."
Xiao Zhi said suddenly.
"That's right! Xiao Zhi said it simply and clearly! Miasma is a kind of poisonous gas, scientifically speaking, miasma is the poisonous gas produced by the decomposition of the corpses of animals and plants in nature. ”
He paused for a moment, then continued, "There are different types of miasma, but there are probably two kinds. One is tangible and the other is intangible. The tangible miasma is like a cloud, like a dense fog. Invisible miasma or fishy wind, or strange fragrance attacking people, is actually miasma. ”
"In addition to this, there is a miasma, which is even more terrifying!"
Speaking of this, Yanagishita's face suddenly became serious.
"This kind of miasma, at the beginning, but see the jungle shrub in the brilliant golden light, suddenly fell from the air, as small as a projectile gradually drifted away, as big as a wheel suddenly cracked, non-rainbow non-xia, five colors all over the field, the fragrance is compelling. Regardless of people, animals, birds and beasts, as long as they are exposed to this smell, they will have an immediate attack, unconscious, and if they are not treated in time, they can die in an instant. This miasma is called the miasma, and it is the most terrifying! ”
The little fat man listened to Yanagishita's words, and was so frightened that his brains were numb, his face was like dirt, his eyes were dull, and even his limbs trembled slightly.
But fortunately, I was not scared and collapsed on the ground.
Seeing that the little fat man was frightened, Ye Mengfei laughed: "Little fatty, are you scared?!" Actually, it's not that serious! ”
She turned her head to look at Xiao Zhi and said, "Xiao Zhi, you should often encounter miasma in the mountains, right?!" ”
"That's it! Which mountain doesn't have miasma?! ”
Xiao Zhi smiled slightly, "Chubby may have misunderstood!" Miasma can be mild or severe, and toxicity is not the same. To take the simplest example, when you go to the thatched house, the gas you smell is also a kind of miasma, everyone should have smelled it, right?! How many people have been poisoned by smoke?! Hahahaha! ”
"That smell is miasma?! I've been through too much, haven't I?! ”
When the little fat man heard Xiao Zhi say this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and his nervous face eased down, "Strictly speaking, every time I go to the toilet, I can experience a miasma!" ”
"Ahh Ahh Bah....! ”
Listening to the little fat man's words, Ye Mengfei snorted at him a few times in annoyance, "Can you be civilized?!" ”
Jiang Xiaoyan next to her was also a little unbearable on her face, and quietly took the little fat man's hand and pinched the back of his hand fiercely.
The little fat man was in pain, "Wow... Suddenly, he almost jumped up, and looked at Jiang Xiaoyan suspiciously, "Is there something wrong with you?!" Hit it so ruthlessly?! ”
As he spoke, he covered the back of his hand and breathed softly.
It seems that Jiang Xiaoyan pinched it very lightly.
"That's good for you! Chubby! Hahaha! ”
Yanagi Buhui saw the clue at once, laughed and said to the little fat man, "Let you say anything?!" Even if you say it, you have to think about the occasion! Isn't it?! ”
Jiang Xiaoyan gave the little fat man a fierce look, and the resentment was still unresolved.
"There are some places where we have miasma, and when we get up early in the morning, we don't see people in close proximity, and we have to wait until the middle of the day, when the fog clears, to be able to distinguish objects, especially in the mountains. Therefore the inhabitants know how to travel, and must be well fed; Or drink a few glasses of wine to resist the miasma, otherwise you will definitely get sick after touching it. The summer is very hot, sweating like rain, but the residents do not dare to untie their clothes, when the wind is cold, lie down at night, and the door must be closed, these are the reasons to prevent the miasma from invading. ”
Xiao Zhi continued: "Actually, when you lived in the Qishan Valley, you should have encountered miasma?!" ”
After speaking, he turned his head to look at everyone, his eyes full of doubts and puzzles.
"Qishan Valley?!"
"Are you talking about the dense fog that you passed when you first entered the valley, when you walked in from the valley mouth?!" ”
Liu Xia Buhui reminded him like this, Ye Mengfei, Xiaopang, and Jiang Xiaoyan all remembered it.
Especially the little fat man, but he went in and out of that thick fog a few times, and suffered a lot.
At this moment, they all looked at Xiao Zhi with very expectant eyes, waiting for Xiao Zhi to give an answer.
"Yes!"
Xiao Zhi answered categorically.
"When you go in, you should find that it's set up as a forbidden area, right?!"
All four nodded at the same time.
Actually, it wasn't when they went in and found that it was a forbidden area.
It was only after they came out of it that they found the no-go sign.
However, at the moment, it is no longer very important when you find out.
What matters is Xiaozhi's words.
"The most important reason to make it a forbidden area is that miasma!"
Xiao Zhi paused slightly, "That miasma is very toxic, so to speak, that miasma is the most toxic of all the miasma I have seen since I was a child!" ”
Hearing this, Yanagishita Buhui and the little fat man involuntarily turned their heads to look at each other, exchanged glances, and shook their heads at the same time, expressing their puzzlement.
"That's not right, Xiao Zhi!"
The little fat man was the first to speak, "It doesn't seem to be that poisonous, right?!" ”
He pointed at himself with his finger first, then turned around and pointed at Liu Shita Buhui, Ye Mengfei and Jiang Xiaoyan, "We have all been in, and we are not poisoned?!" Look, where do I look like I'm poisoned?! ”
After speaking, he stretched out his palm in front of Xiao Zhi's eyes and shook it.
"Really?!"
This time, it was Xiao Zhi's turn to be confused.
He turned his head to look at Yanagi Buhui, "Brother, is that the case?!" ”
Yanagishita nodded.
"That's weird!"
Xiao Zhi shook his head, "I remember that I personally tested it at that time, because it was very popular at that time, and everyone was frightened when they heard it, so when I went, I deliberately brought a few animals for experiments, holding a sheep in my hand and a chicken in a bag." ”
"At that time, the chicken was fed two mouthfuls of rice and then thrown into the miasma."
All four of them listened attentively and couldn't take their eyes off it.
"The chicken, fluttering its wings, struggling in the air as it fell into the miasma."
"And then?!"
Ye Mengfei stretched her neck, approached Xiao Zhi's face, and asked with wide eyes.
"After the chicken fell into the miasma, it only fluttered twice, and then it stopped fluttering! I was outside, and all I could hear was a pop, and I knew that the chicken had been poisoned and had fallen to the ground! ”
"Wow..."
The four of them couldn't help but let out a "wow" and took half a step back at the same time.
"At that time, I thought, it may be that the chicken was thrown in the air, and it was in a hurry, screaming loudly, fluttering hard, breathing rapidly, and inhaling a large amount of poisonous gas in a short time. So, I thought, why don't you drive the sheep in again?! After all, sheep have a docile personality and are not very prone to hurrying. ”
"Later, I wanted to drive that sheep into the miasma...
"Xiaozhi, you're too cruel, aren't you?!"
Ye Mengfei suddenly glared at Xiao Zhi, "The little sheep is so docile, how can you bear to treat it like that?!" ”
In his voice, he seemed to be a little choked.
It was as if she had seen the lamb engulfed in the miasma.
"Sister Mengfei, no!"
Xiao Zhi's smile was slightly embarrassed, "I fed the lamb a few handfuls of fresh grass, and threw the rest of the grass into the miasma, trying to lure it in, you all know that the lamb likes to eat fresh young grass the most!" ”
"You're so bad! Xiaozhi! ”
Ye Mengfei's eyes seemed to be angry, "Looking at you with talent, fine skin and tender meat, and clear eyebrows, why are you so evil in your heart?!" ”
"Meng Fei, you can't say that about Xiao Zhi!"
Yanagi Buhui hurriedly stopped him on the side and said, "Xiao Zhi is doing a scientific experiment, how can it be called cruel, how can it be called evil?!" Aren't the scientists in the lab all the heinous villains?! ”
Listening to Liu Xia Buhui's explanation, the faces of the little fat man and Jiang Xiaoyan eased a lot, and only Ye Mengfei was indignant and looked very unconvinced.
"Then, even if it's an experiment, you have to be gentle! Isn't it, Xiaozhi?! Am I wrong?! ”
Ye Mengfei said to Xiao Zhi.
"Yes! Be! Sister Meng Fei said yes! ”
Xiao Zhi smiled slightly and continued: "Usually, wherever I throw the grass, the little lamb will obediently follow me, roll it up with his tongue, eat it with relish, and look at me a few times from time to time, maybe he wants me to throw more, right?!" ”
Listening to Xiao Zhi talking about such a cute lamb, and thinking that this cute little lamb was about to be engulfed by miasma, Ye Mengfei's eyes couldn't help but turn a little red.
"The strange thing is that this time, watching me throw the grass into the miasma, the little lamb did walk in the direction I threw it at first, but when it was almost in front of the miasma, it actually stopped, looked at the faint grass in the miasma, turned its head to look at me, and bleated a few times."
"Call it back! Come on! ”
Ye Mengfei was a little anxious, and kept urging Xiao Zhi.
Yanagi Buhui couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.
"I thought, why doesn't it go on?! Could it be that there is too little grass thrown away, and it doesn't see it?! So, I threw two more! ”
"The result?!"
Ye Mengfei was even more anxious, took Xiao Zhi's hand, and shook it vigorously.
"And then the little lamb, looking at the grass, began to move on."
Ye Mengfei's heart was about to rise to the door of his voice.
"However, as soon as it moved, it stopped again!"
Xiao Zhi continued, his face did not change, and he did not pant for breath.
"It turned its head to look at me, then at the grass in the miasma, and bleated incessantly, as if it were making a difficult choice!"
Ye Mengfei listened nervously, her two fists clenched tightly, and her eyes were staring at Xiao Zhi tightly, for fear that he would say something bad.
"I knew in my heart that animals have a self-protective nature, and the lamb must have known that there was danger inside, so he refused to go in and eat grass immediately!"
"So, I'll go back!"
"You're back?!"
"Hmm!"
"The lamb is still there?!"
"So, for sure?!"
Xiao Zhi looked at Ye Mengfei in confusion, just like looking at a mentally handicapped child, "I didn't lose it again!" ”
"Wow! Xiao Zhi is so good! ”
When Ye Mengfei heard this, she was excited, pounced on her, hugged Xiao Zhi tightly, and kissed Xiao Zhi on the face.
This action was too sudden.
Yanagi didn't have time to stop it, so he was stunned all of a sudden!
The little fat man and Jiang Xiaoyan were also taken aback.
It's nothing.
The one who was scared the most should be Xiao Zhi!
After being hugged tightly by Ye Mengfei and being kissed heavily, Xiao Zhi's little face suddenly turned red, and his body twisted in Ye Mengfei's arms.
"Meng Fei, tap! Look at the little shame! Our Xiaozhi is still a pure young man?! Where can you be ravaged so mercilessly?! ”
Looking at Xiao Zhi's extremely embarrassed expression and helpless struggle, Yanagishita Buhui laughed happily.
Suddenly, Ye Mengfei, who was in extreme excitement, suddenly let go of the hands that were holding Xiao Zhi tightly, took a step back, and looked at Xiao Zhi with a flushed face in surprise, looking from top to bottom.
At this moment, Xiao Zhi was also looking at Ye Mengfei with helpless eyes.
The two of them made eye contact for a moment, and Ye Mengfei's surprised expression gradually softened.
She walked over again and slowly approached Xiao Zhi, this time the hug was much gentle.
However, this time, she didn't kiss Xiaozhi's face again.
She kissed Xiaozhi's ear.
Yanagishita Buhui saw that Ye Mengfei's mouth was close to Xiao Zhi's ear, as if he was saying something.
It's just that the voice is too soft and you can't hear anything.
Although Yanagishita Buhui can't hear it, Xiaozhi should be able to hear it.
I saw that Xiao Zhi was still blushing, listening to Ye Mengfei's whispers, and occasionally nodded a little cowardly, or shook his head, looking at Liu Xia Buhui with a confused face.
From time to time, the two exchanged positions, and Xiao Zhi began to whisper close to Ye Mengfei's ear.
As they spoke, the two of them seemed to laugh at the same time.
"Look at you two like that, isn't it a bit excessive?!"
The little fat man watched from the side and shouted loudly, "Didn't you see that my brother was still standing here watching?!" ”
Yanagi Buhui didn't have any other ideas, but he just felt that the behavior of the two people was a little weird.
They must have secrets they don't know!
"Alright, alright! Meng Fei! After expressing your feelings, you can let go of Xiaozhi! ”
Yanagishita Fuhui joked and said, "We still have to discuss, what should we do next!" ”
After listening to Yanagi Buhui's words, Ye Mengfei let go of Xiao Zhi and stepped aside, her big eyes still looked at Xiao Zhi, full of smiles, but that smile was a little bad.
Xiao Zhi lowered his head with a flushed face, not knowing what to say.
Yanagishita Buhui knew that Xiao Zhi was a little ashamed.
"Xiaozhi, don't be surprised! Your Sister Mengfei is like this, she is often crazy, no big or small, don't go to your heart, just get used to it! ”
Xiao Zhi glanced up at Ye Mengfei, and his face turned even redder.
Ye Mengfei's laughter became louder.
"After talking about the miasma in Taishan, it's time for us to take a look at the miasma in Peach Blossom Valley! Let's go inside! ”
After Yanagishita finished speaking, he raised his feet and walked forward.
"Brother, I'll lead the way!"
Xiao Zhi stopped him, "I am from the mountains, and I am familiar with the mountain roads!" ”
"Okay!"
Yanagishita nodded his head, "Everyone keep up!" Don't be left behind! ”
"Got it!"
Everyone agreed.
Crossing the mouth of the Peach Blossom Valley, even if you officially enter the Peach Blossom Valley.
Maybe the story about the miasma just now was too dangerous, and everyone walked tremblingly and cautiously along the way.
On the contrary, he walked at the front, walking briskly as always, on the rugged and somewhat slippery mountain stone path.
The willow who followed behind him was not favorable, holding his breath and pinching his strength, he could barely keep up with Xiaozhi.
Ye Mengfei, Jiang Xiaoyan and the little fat man in the back are not good.
Staggering, sometimes high and sometimes low, one by one tired with slanted eyes and crooked eyebrows, sore backs and weak legs, and sweating profusely.
"Brother! Slow down! I can't keep up! ”
The little fat man at the end of the team finally couldn't hold back and screamed.
"Hurry up!"
Yanagishita Buhui stopped, turned around, and gasped as he looked at the three people behind him who were even more out of breath.
"Xiaozhi!"
He turned his head and shouted to Xiao Zhi, who was about a few feet away from the front, "You slow down a little, you can't keep up with the back!" ”
Xiao Zhi in front of him stopped and did not speak.
Yanagishita Buhui thinks it's a little strange.,This isn't Xiaozhi's style?!
He took a few steps forward, getting closer to Xiao Zhi.
Xiao Zhi stood there, as if in a daze, looking straight ahead.
Even the posture was as if it had been immobilized, and he didn't move.
What's wrong?!
Yanagishita Buhui hurriedly walked a few steps and ran to Xiao Zhi's side.
Follow Xiao Zhi's gaze.
Ahead is a small road, with rocky rocks and overgrown weeds.
Yanagishita Buhui looked at it again and again, it doesn't seem to be any different from the path under his feet?!
"Xiao Zhi, what are you looking at?!"
Yanagishita Buhui looked at Xiao Zhi's strange expression and asked.
Suddenly, he suddenly felt a tightness in his body, as if something was wrapped around his body.
Yanagi Buhui was shocked and involuntarily twisted his body.
Fortunately, there seemed to be no signs of pain or injury in my body, and I didn't feel the slightest discomfort.
"Brother, don't move, it looks like we've entered the miasma area!"
"What?!"
Yanagishita was not surprised.
He immediately turned around and shouted to the three people who were slowly walking and crawling behind him, "Don't come here yet, you three rest in place!" ”
The three of them were so tired that they heard Yanagi Buhui say this, and when they got on the road, their legs were weak, their hands were loose, and they sat down on the spot.
That's a good feeling!
The three of them looked at each other and smiled.
"Xiaozhi, what's going on?!"
After stopping the three people behind, Yanagishita Buhui turned around, looked at Xiao Zhi and asked, "Do you feel the miasma?!" I can't see it! ”
"Brother, I was a little careless, I didn't expect this place to be so dangerous!"
Xiao Zhi seemed to blame himself a little and said: "This kind of miasma, colorless, tasteless, traceless, invisible, intangible, belongs to a kind of miasma, called shadowless miasma." ”
"This miasma is very toxic, fortunately, we are only out of the edge area of the miasma now, the miasma density is not very large, and the toxicity is weaker, but I already feel a little uncomfortable!"
Yanagishita Fuhui looked at Xiao Zhi's face.
Indeed, Xiao Zhi's face was already a little pale, his lips were a little purple, and even his arms began to tremble.
"Xiaozhi, don't be nervous! Come on, brother, you go out first! ”
Yanagi Buhui pulled Xiao Zhi's arm and was about to carry it to his body.
Xiao Zhi shook his head, "Brother, it's dangerous here, you hurry up and step back a while, I'll wait a while, go out by yourself!" ”
"What are you talking about?!"
Liu Xia didn't say a word, picked up Xiaozhi's body, carried it on his shoulder, turned around and left.
I don't know where this strength came from!
Xiao Zhi, who was carried on his shoulder, didn't move, but a little smile suddenly appeared in his eyes!
