Qingyun couldn't see it, and stopped him with an arrow step, and said, "Old man, keep your mouth clean, you don't know what, I think you're crazy." ”

"Evil way! Evil way! If it weren't for you, how would my family be ...... How could it be ......" The old man's emotions became extremely excited, he trembled and scolded angrily, and stretched out his hand to push Qingyun vigorously, but how could he, a thin old man, push the first big disciple of Yuqingguan.

Qingyun didn't dodge or dodge, let him push and shove, and said angrily: "Old man, I see that you are old and don't have the same knowledge as you, don't rely on the old and sell the old, otherwise I will not blame the Taoist master, and I will be welcome." ”

Kongtongzi hurriedly stepped forward, glared at Qingyun, and said to the old man: "Donor, we are just passing by, we don't want to disturb your rest, the disciples are not sensible, please forgive me for the rudeness." ”

The old man glanced at Kongtongzi whitely, stretched out his hand and slapped him, Kongtongzi is so cultivated, he dodged it in a flash, the old man missed a blow and danced loudly, the laughter was harsh, worse than crying, laughed for a long time, pointed to Kongtongzi and said mysteriously: "I know you, haha, you are also here to catch ghosts, useless, useless, hehehe!" After saying that, he fell to the ground again, muttering something he didn't understand.

"Ghost hunting, what ghosts?" Da Zhuang asked.

Qingyun's eyes rolled, "Cut!" Catch him a big-headed ghost, he's a crazy old man, ignore him, take a walk......"

Before he could finish speaking, the crazy old man was already snoring.

I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Kongtongzi probably saw that it was useless to say more, so he reluctantly arched his hand and said goodbye.

Everyone continued to move forward, but before they could take a few steps, Qingyun's body trembled violently, "Wow! With a scream, he fell to the ground.

I saw him holding his stomach with both hands, screaming in pain, his face was green, and before we could react to what was going on, people were already rolling all over the ground.

"Qingyun, what's wrong with you?" I quickly stepped forward to hold him up.

Qingyun shook his head with difficulty, beads of sweat the size of beans dripping down, and reluctantly replied: "I don't know, it's just, it's just a sharp pain in my abdomen." ”

Kongtongzi hurriedly cut his vein, and pulled a small purple flower from the ground and stuffed it into Qingyun's mouth, I didn't see what kind of herb it was, but Qingyun only chewed it a few times and spit it out.

Kong Tongzi was shocked, "It's not good, he fell for the Gu." ”

Then he turned to the crazy old man who was lying in the bushes and said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, old man, there is no enmity between us, please raise the platform and noble hands, and solve this Gu for my disciple, and apologize for the offense." ”

At this time, I came back to my senses, it must be that this crazy old man will play Gu, Qingyun's sluggish behavior just now annoyed him, and he actually took revenge on Gu.

The crazy old man raised his eyelids twice, yawned unhurriedly, and saw that he seemed to be about to fall asleep again, and he didn't mean to take care of Kongtongzi at all, Xia Ti also hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Old man, human life is at stake, please raise your noble hand." ”

As soon as the crazy old man heard Xia Ti's voice, he immediately opened his eyes, bounced up from the ground, and said to Xia Ti with a courteous and flattering face: "Duo'er! If you say save him, you will save him, and your father will depend on you. ”

"Daddy! Who are you...... "I'm a little anxious.

Xia Ti glanced at me and pointed to his head, meaning that I should not be like this crazy old man, and it was important to save Qingyun first.

The crazy old man ignored me, just coldly glanced at Qingyun who fell to the ground, and said, "Carry him on your back and come with me." After saying that, he staggered ahead to lead the way.

I suppressed my anger, followed behind Qingyun on my back, and whispered to Kongtongzi how to determine that Qingyun was really in Gu, if this crazy old man was just pretending to be a ghost, I would definitely pick off a layer of skin from him.

Kongtongzi nodded very firmly, and explained, the small purple flower just now is called "Dragon Sprout Grass", which is a kind of herb that clears heat and detoxifies, disperses blood stasis through the meridians, and has a cool and slight taste, and there is also an effect in the seedling land is to repel insects, ordinary Gu people don't like this dragon sprout grass, so people in the Gu will immediately repel the Gu worms in their bodies when they eat this grass, and spit out the grass, and Miao people usually use this method to distinguish whether they are in the Gu or not. However, the dragon sprout grass can only detect ordinary small Gu, and it will not work on the plum blossom Gu on Xia Ti's body.

As we spoke, we entered the village, where the rules of the house were beautiful, but the people were unusually strange, and when they saw us, they immediately hid out of the house, gritting their teeth and showing a fierce light, as if they had seen the enemy of their father, which was extremely uncomfortable. But the crazy old man turned a blind eye to this, and cried and laughed and muttered something.

Keep walking forward, I saw an old compound, the courtyard door was closed, a very faint fragrance wafted out from the inside, this should be the ancestral hall in the center of the village, around here to turn upward, as I expected, the crazy old man's residence is the lonely wooden building on stilts at the top of the slope, the wooden stakes below have rotted, it feels like it will collapse at any time, fortunately, the wooden house above is simple, you can see the scene inside the house from the outside, and it is estimated that there is not much weight.

The most conspicuous thing is that there are several black clay jars under the house, the mouth of the altar is tightly sealed, shiny and shiny, I feel that this thing must be related to Gu worms.

On the wooden building is a hall, the table and chairs of the bamboo are a little tattered, the furnishings are also simple, there is a bedroom on the left and right, there is a dark grid above the head, you can't see the things inside, the house is a little dim, the only conspicuous thing is a few dragon sprouts planted at the window.

I put Qingyun flat on the bed board of the inner room, Qingyun was already unconscious in pain at this time, everyone was anxious, but the crazy old man was not in a hurry, he walked in after a while, holding a dry straw stick and a peeled boiled egg in his hand, he unbuttoned Qingyun's shirt, lit the straw stick, and immediately, a wisp of yellow smoke floated out with the fragrance of artemisia grass, the crazy old man smoked twice around Qingyun with this straw stick, the smoke from the burning of the straw stick was very special, not floating up, but going down, In an instant, the sea of Qingyun's dantian qi was already enveloped. Then I rubbed the boiled egg in the dantian, and with just a cup of tea, the snow-white egg white turned blue-black, and it became darker and darker.

The crazy old man laughed twice, got up and said, "He's fine, he will vomit some poison at night, it's best to take him out then, if he dirties me here...... Hey! ”

If it weren't for Qingyun still in a coma, I would have found the crazy old man to settle accounts, and the secret passage is such a dilapidated wooden building is still afraid of getting dirty, but when I looked closely, I found that although this wooden house was dim and dilapidated, and the furnishings were simple, it was indeed very clean and spotless.

Seeing the crazy old man wiping his tears from Xia Ti again, "My Duo'er, you're hungry, Dad, I'm going to make your favorite hot and sour food." So saying, he ran out.

Looking at his crazy appearance, he must have been stimulated by something, it is estimated that he became like this because of the loss of his beloved daughter, and now he mistakenly thinks Xia Ti is his daughter, and now he is sometimes sober and sometimes confused, both good and evil, and it is strange that someone dares to eat the food he cooks.

Kongtongzi told us that the Gu keeper's home is unusually clean, because the Gu worm itself has the ability to clean up the surroundings, and the consequences of deliberately soiling here are very serious, so we had to carry Qingyun outside, Qingyun didn't react at first, but after three watches, suddenly, his throat "gurgled", and as soon as he turned over, he vomited loudly, first vomiting black, then green, and finally red, and he could vomit a bucket, extremely disgusting, and tossed for most of the night.

According to Qingyun's temper, he must settle accounts with the crazy old man, but Kongtongzi said that this village is unusual, there must be something strange in it, and now the first thing is to find the sacred tree, it is not easy to cause more trouble, this time it is all a lesson, let us see the power of Gu worms, fortunately, the crazy old man didn't want to really harm our lives, this is already a great luck, we must be cautious in the future, and we can't provoke Gu people. Hearing Kong Tongzi say this, Qingyun had no choice but to hate it.

The next morning, the crazy old man's spirit was good, Xia Ti asked him about the Divine Tree, but he found nothing, the crazy old man was naturally happy to see Xia Ti, but his head shook like a rattle, it seemed that he had really never heard about the Divine Tree, which was inevitably a little disappointing.

But the crazy old man's words are really uncertain, everyone unanimously decided, or go to the village below to try their luck again, the crazy old man didn't stop him, just grabbed Xia Ti, and muttered pitifully: "Duo'er, Duo'er, don't go, stay with your father, only your father can protect you, don't be with this group of people, today is the climbing festival, I can't find anyone, hehe, damn, they all deserve to die, they all deserve to die, it's useless...... Hahahaha! ”

Climb knots? Can't find anyone? Damn it? Seeing that the crazy old man was excited again, I was afraid that he would be crazy again, so I hurriedly pulled Xia Ti and rushed out.

When we got to the village below, there was really no one, the doors and windows of the house were closed, and it was as silent as death, and we knocked on the door from house to house, but no one came out, as if everyone had disappeared overnight, which was really weird.

I asked Kongtongzi what the crazy old man just muttered about what he meant, Kongtongzi also shook his head, saying that today is March 15, according to the customs of the Miao people, it is indeed a climbing festival, this climbing festival as the name suggests is climbing, people will climb the hill every time they come to this festival, generally refers to young men and women going to the village to sing and dance, this should be the most lively festival except for the Miao year, how can you not even see a figure?

Just when everyone was puzzled, suddenly, with a "creak", a small crack was embedded in the door of a house in front of us, and it was dark inside, and nothing could be seen.
