Chapter 238: The Blind Man's Calculation

On the way back to the mountain, Xiao Chujiu led the blind old man to walk in front, and Taiye and Xiao Laodao each walked behind with a torch.

While walking, the master looked at the blind old man in front of him suspiciously, and finally, the master finally couldn't help it, and turned his head to ask Xiao Laodao, but before he could ask, he was noticed by Xiao Laodao, Xiao Laodao hurriedly waved his hand to the grandfather, handed the torch in his hand to the grandfather, and gestured: The blind man's ears are bright, if there is anything, just gesture and say.

The master's gestures are not so skilled, but fortunately, they are already familiar with each other, even if they don't use gestures, they can understand what the other party means with one look.

The master handed the two torches in his hand to Xiao Laodao, and asked Xiao Laodao with a lame gesture: Is this blind man credible?

Xiao Laodao gestured and replied: Eighty percent is credible, even if it is not credible, it is better to stay by our side than to stay by Gao's side, without him, we will not be able to detect our whereabouts.

The master nodded slightly, and Xiao Laodao gestured again: keep an eye on him at all times, as long as he doesn't make any marks along the road, then it's fine.

Back on the mountain, the girl was very surprised when she saw the blind old man, and she looked at the blind old man a few times and asked Xiao Laodao: "Daoist Xiao, this is ......?"

Without waiting for Xiao Laodao to answer, the blind old man reported to his home, "I have the same surname as the dragon slayer, and I am known as 'God Counts Liu Yigua', no matter what happens, just one hexagram." ”

Xiao Laodao suddenly smiled, and said to the old man: "We have you, Mr. Feng Shui, and now there is another Mr. Divine Calculation, as the saying goes, with a lot of help, great things can be done!" ”

The master shook his head secretly when he heard this, he had a lot of help, a group of tomb robbers who stole graves and dug up graves, what is there to say.

The trouble of chasing the soldiers has been solved, and everyone is not in a hurry to leave, but they sit around the mountainside and chat, until the east turns white.

The blind old man said in detail what happened to his son's whole family, and then told the situation in Gaofu, the blind old man said that Gaofu has great influence in Wangwu Mountain, and Gao Lin Mountain, that is, Gao Lao, is still a famous good man and a famous family in ten miles and eight townships, and has dealings with the local government and the thieves in Wangwu Mountain.

After the blind old man finished speaking, Xiao Laodao told some of his experience of robbing the tomb, which can be regarded as telling the story to everyone, and Xiao Laodao didn't say anything else, because the blind old man was not enough to make him trust.

After daybreak, everyone ate some dry food and tidied up their luggage. Before leaving, Xiao Laodao asked the blind man with a smile, "Old man, where do you think we should go?" ”

The blind old man stroked his gray beard, pinched his fingers and calculated, and said: "Go further along the river, there is a village within twenty miles, and there is a person in the village who belongs to the earth with five elements, and the earth is born of wood, this person should be a person who is engaged in the business of medicinal materials, or a langzhong, we have some fate with this person." ”

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and they were all a little disbelieving, and the girl asked with a questioning face: "Old man, can you really calculate so accurately?" ”

The blind old man smiled, "Aren't you going to know when you wait until the place?" ”

The people went down the hill and went on along the river. After walking out for more than ten miles, the blind old man suddenly stopped and said to the master who was walking in front: "Liu Daxia, you and the big man in the back have a change, let him go ahead, and you will break the back." ”

The master was puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "It's good to go, why do you want me to break off?" ”

The blind old man said, "Just listen to me, be sure to change with the big man in the back." ”

The master was a little unhappy, this old blind man, whether he was an enemy or a friend, it was still unclear, why should he listen to him.

Xiao Laodao hurriedly said on the side: "Brother, the old gentleman asked you to change, there must be his intentions, you can exchange it with Chu Jiu." Xiao Laodao immediately greeted Xiao Chujiu, "Chujiu, you open the way for Bingshou to the front." ”

Xiao Chujiu immediately walked over from behind, and the grandfather glanced at him, didn't say a word, turned around and walked to the back of the team.

This time, Xiao Chujiu took the lead, and everyone continued to walk forward, but before they could go two feet away, Xiao Chujiu snorted lightly. At this time, the ghost monkey walked behind Xiao Chujiu with the little white bear in his arms, and at the same time Xiao Chujiu snorted softly, it seemed to have discovered something, quickly put down the little white bear in his arms, ran to Xiao Chujiu's side, stretched out his paws, and pulled out an emerald green long object from the grass nest, looking still alive.

Xiao Laodao suddenly exclaimed: "Zhu Yeqing! Ninth year, are you alright? ”

Xiao Chujiu turned around, "I, I was bitten by it......"

This is a bamboo leaf green poisonous snake, seeing this, the master didn't care about Xiao Chujiu, rushed to the blind old man from behind, grabbed the old man's collar, and shouted: "You already know if it's true!" ”

The blind old man suddenly showed an innocent face, "Liu Daxia, don't worry, this is the number of days......"

"What number of days, you asked me to switch with Brother Chu Jiu, just to let Brother Chu Jiu be bitten by a poisonous snake, right!"

"Yes!" The blind old man nodded fiercely, and said bluntly: "If you walk in front, you will find poisonous snakes in the grass, and none of us will be bitten, but at that time, our fate with the person in the village will be wrong." ”

"Nonsense!" The master raised his palm and replaced the knife with his palm.

"Stop!" Xiao Laodao shouted at the master: "Brother, now is not the time to talk about this, you come over and help." ”

When the master heard this, he let go of the blind old man, at this time, Xiao Chujiu was already sitting on the ground, holding one trouser leg, the master walked over to take a look, at Xiao Chujiu's ankle, there were two small tooth marks, and the area around the tooth marks was already swollen, Xiao Laodao was squatting beside Xiao Chujiu at this time, busy squeezing out the poisonous blood.

The master asked Xiao Laodao: "Brother Xiao, what do you want me to do?" ”

Xiao Laodao didn't look at the master, and said lightly: "Don't do anything, just don't trouble the old gentleman." ”

The grandfather sighed indignantly.

After squeezing out some poisonous blood, Xiao Laodao stood up from the ground and said, "This bamboo leaf green will not kill people, but if you find an antidote as soon as possible, otherwise you may be disabled." ”

At this time, the blind old man interjected, "The man in the front of the village can detoxify snake venom." ”

When the master heard this, he glared at the blind old man fiercely, and when Xiao Laodao heard this, he said to the master: "Then let's not delay, let's hurry immediately." ”

As soon as Xiao Laodao's voice fell, the ghost monkey carried the dead snake that had been killed by it, and shook it in front of Xiao Laodao's eyes, Xiao Laodao glanced at the dead snake, "You take it first, the snake gall can be used in medicine, and then talk about it when you get to the village." ”

The master helped Xiao Chujiu, Xiao Laodao was responsible for opening the road in front, and everyone walked forward for more than a mile.

At this time, there was a slope in front, the river water rushed down the slope, everyone came to the edge of the slope, looked down, and saw that next to the downstream of the river, there was really a village, around the stockade, all were wooden fences more than one person high, and there were more than a dozen bamboo houses in the fence.

After everyone saw it, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, this old blind man really had some ability. Quickening their pace, they walked down the slope, and went around the wooden fence to the gate of the stockade.

At this time, it was close to noon, and there was an old man sitting in the gate of the village, and the old man was eating lunch with a wooden bowl, like a watchman at the gate of the village.

Xiao Laodao stepped forward to say hello to him, and asked if there was anyone in the village who could cure snake venom, and the old man was quite kind, not only let everyone go, but also pointed to a bamboo house inside, and told everyone that there was a Langzhong surnamed Chu living in that bamboo house, and he could cure snake venom.

Everyone quickly walked to the bamboo house in Chu Langzhong, and at noon, they saw that the door of the bamboo house was actually closed, Xiao Laodao stepped forward and knocked a few times, but there was no movement inside.

Is there no one? Xiao Laodao muttered, let everyone wait at the door, he went to the bamboo houses next to him, after a while, Xiao Laodao returned, frowned slightly, and said to everyone: "Let's wait here first, the people in the village said that this Chu Langzhong went into the mountains early in the morning to collect medicine, and he should be back soon." ”

Xiao Lao Dao said, and the blind old man said: "You go and ask again, where did Lang Zhong go to collect medicine, and why didn't he come back at this time." ”

When Xiao Laodao heard this, he glanced at the blind old man, didn't say a word, and went to the bamboo house next to him to ask, and after a while, he came back again, Xiao Laodao said to the blind old man: "He usually collects medicine on the east mountain next to the village, and he can come back before noon, and today has passed the hour." ”

When the blind old man heard this, he nodded, but did not speak, Xiao Laodao suddenly looked suspicious, "Old man, what do you mean by this?" ”

The blind old man still didn't say anything, Xiao Laodao immediately looked at the grandfather and a few people, "Bingshou, Lan'er, monkey, you come with me to Dongshan, eleven, you stay and take care of your senior brother, old brother, old gentleman, you also stay." ”

Xiao Shiyi and the old man nodded, the blind old man still didn't say anything, Xiao Lao Dao immediately gestured to Xiao Shiyi and the old man to ask for food: Pay attention to this blind man, if he has abnormal behavior, kill him immediately!

Xiao Laodao took my grandfather, the ghost monkey and the showgirl to take all the ropes, left the village, and hurried to the mountain east of the village.

This eastern mountain is not too big, it looks like a large mound from a distance, and the whole thing is lush, but if you want to find someone in it, it is a different matter.

When they came to the bottom of the mountain, they saw a path leading to the mountain, and everyone followed the path up the mountain, walking all the way, shouting Chu Langzhong all the way, from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, but they didn't even find half a figure.

After turning around again at the top of the mountain, the master suddenly found that on the other side of the mountain, near the edge of the cliff, there was a rope tied to a tree.

The master immediately greeted Xiao Laodao, and several people quickly came to the big tree with the rope, and saw that the rope went from the tree to the other side of the cliff, but because the cliff was steep and the vegetation was dense, the rope below could not be seen.

Xiao Laodao dragged the rope, looked at the bottom of the cliff, and said to the master: "This may be the rope in Chu Langzhong, he must be below." ”

Hearing this, the master grabbed the rope and pulled it up, immediately frowned, and said, "There is no one on the rope, it's empty!" ”
