Chapter Seventy-Two: The Truth About the Closed Gate Village
The closed gate village at midnight looked even more weird and terrifying, everyone fell asleep, and only Mu Zixun sat alone next to the slightly shaking fire.
Every now and then the crackling sound of the fire made the room seem not so quiet.
Mu Zixun's face was pale, and her body seemed to be still trembling.
At this time, a black coat was draped over her body, and Mu Zixun turned her head to look, and saw Xiao Yao sitting beside her with a lazy smile on the corner of her mouth.
Xiao Yao laughed softly: "It's not very pleasant to remember things that are not good." ”
Mu Zixun nodded lightly and did not speak.
Xiao Yao touched her head and comforted: "It's okay, everything is with me." ”
Mu Zixun looked at Xiao Yao complicatedly: "You?"
Xiao Yao grinned: "Don't you think it's fun to solve all the unknown puzzles?"
Mu Zixun directly rewarded Xiao Yao with a roll of his eyes.
Then she looked at Xiao Yao's black coat draped over her and asked, "Do you like black very much? I remember that you were always wearing black clothes before?"
Xiao Yao raised his hand, which had now become as white as jade because of the cultivation of the "Nine Turns of the Easy Technique", and said: "It's not that I like it, I'm just used to it, before I practiced, my skin was actually very dark, in order to make me look whiter, I have been wearing black clothes, and now I am used to it." ”
Mu Zixun nodded.
Xiao Yao then said: "Okay, let's talk about this closed door village, when did the story of this closed door village come out?"
Mu Zixun thought for a while before saying, "I heard the old people say that it seems to be ninety years ago, right?"
"Ninety years ago? So you're thinking about what happened ninety years ago?"
Mu Zixun shook his head: "I'm only nineteen years old this year, so can I know what happened ninety years ago? Although I have also investigated the affairs of Fengmen Village, I really haven't heard of any major events ninety years ago, and Fengmen Village seems to have appeared out of thin air." ”
Xiao Yao touched his chin: "Do you know what happened in the first few years of the appearance in Fengmen Village?"
"A few years ago?" Mu Zixun's eyebrows were about to wrinkle into a river.
"If it is said that the big thing that appeared before the appearance of Fengmen Village may be the Li family, I remember that a hundred years ago, the Li family suddenly rose in our small county. ”
The smile on Xiao Yao's face became a little bigger: "It seems that this is where the matter is." ”
"Do you think these are all ghosts of the Li family? No, I haven't heard of anything to do with the Li family and this closed door village before?
Xiao Yao lit a cigarette for himself and said with a smile: "Even if there are really ghosts, it should also have this inextricable relationship with the Li family, and my intuition will not be wrong." ”
Mu Zixun found that since she met Xiao Yao, she had really rolled her eyes more and more: "Then you mean that there are actually no ghosts here?"
Xiao Yao shook his head: "It's not clear yet, I don't know if there are ghosts in this closed village, and I don't know their methods yet, but I'm sure there must be cats here." Ah!!h
Xiao Yao didn't know what he saw, and before he finished speaking, he screamed, startling Mu Zixun, who had just recovered.
Xiao Yao hugged Mu Zixun's arm and pointed to a place, his face was whiter than Mu Zixun's before!
Mu Zixun was also taken aback by Xiao Yao's moment, and stammered and asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"
Xiao Yao pointed to the floor and also stammered and replied: "Then, there are cockroaches, cockroaches!"
Mu Zixun kicked Xiao Yao away: "You are a big man who is still afraid of cockroaches? Isn't it all over if you step on it? ”
Xiao Yao trembled and said: "You said it simply, Xiao Qiang's vitality is even more terrifying than that of a Jindan stage monk, and if you step on it to death, the eggs on its body will always follow you, and then give birth to several small cockroaches!"
Mu Zixun looked in the direction of Xiao Yao's finger: "What cockroaches are there, can you stop scaring me?"
Xiao Yao listened to Mu Zixun's words and slowly calmed down, and lit a cigarette with a trembling self: "Yes, there shouldn't be cockroaches here, besides, why didn't Mu Zixun see so many cockroaches just now?"
Shangguan Yunyan was already laughing in Xiao Yao's mind at this time: "Haha, I really didn't expect that you would be afraid of cockroaches, but it seems that you already know the truth." ”
After Xiao Yao refilled himself with a cigarette again, Mu Zixun waved his hand as soon as he wanted to speak: "Why do you keep smoking this kind of tobacco?
Xiao Yao had a lazy smile on his face: "I understand, actually..."
Before Xiao Yao could finish speaking, he heard a miserable scream: "There are ghosts!!"
Mu Zixun was startled by this sound again, and turned his head to Xiao Yao and said, "Can you not be startled!
Xiao Yao spread his hands at Mu Zixun: "It's not me." ”
Xiao Yao and Mu Zixun turned their heads to look in Yang Yichen's direction at the same time, and saw Yang Yichen suddenly jump up and shout: "There are ghosts!
As soon as Xiao Yao wanted to stop it, he saw Su Zimo also jumping up like Yang Yichen, shouting something in his mouth: "Bastard, who are you, why do you want to hurt me!!"
As the two of them spoke, they each took out their blades and exchanged hands, Su Zimo used the previous Qi Mei stick at the beginning, speaking of which Su Zimo's stick technique was really good, and he hit Yang Yichen at the beginning.
Waiting for Yang Yichen to show the Xuanyuan Sword, Su Zimo's Qi Mei stick was completely useless.
Su Zimo took out a spear again, and he didn't know what Su Zimo's spear was made of, but it could resist the attack of the Xuanyuan Sword.
Dongfang Bai also jumped up, this kid was pale and there was fear in his eyes, and even the Mo family's killing sword technique was used, swinging the sword and slashing indiscriminately.
Long Yubei was similar to Dongfang Bai, but he didn't attack indiscriminately, but muttered to himself in place: "Big brother, second brother, how can you? This is impossible, impossible!"
Lin Yimo was the same, her little face shrank back with a pale face, and Zhou Tianya put the sword in front of her: "Li Tong, aren't you already dead? Why? I didn't kill you, don't come to me!"
She said that she was about to be slashed with a sword, but she was standing in front of Lin Yimo, if this sword was slashed, the defenseless Lin Yimo would really die.
Xiao Yao's eyes were quick, and he took the white blade with his empty hand and shouted at Mu Zixun: "Zixun, what can you do?
Mu Zixun was still stunned when he heard Xiao Yao shouting before he reacted, took out a small cloth bag from his arms and threw it into the air, the cloth bag burst open from the air, and the medicinal powder wrapped in it was sprinkled from it.
Yang Yichen and the others were stunned for a moment when they came into contact with the medicinal powder, and then they all came to their senses, Zhou Tianya looked at Xiao Yao, who was still holding the long sword in her hand: "What's wrong with me? What are you doing?"
Xiao Yao wiped the cold sweat on his face and said everything about their previous events just now.
Yang Yichen and the others looked at each other, and everyone could see the surprise in each other's eyes.
Xiao Yao took a deep breath, lit a cigarette again and sat down: "Okay, let me solve the mystery of this closed door village." ”
Everyone looked at Xiao Yao with blank eyes.
Xiao Yao turned his head and asked Mu Zixun, "Zixun, what was the medicinal powder you used just now?"
Mu Zixun also seemed to understand what Xiao Yao meant and said: "I just wanted to test it, I just used a simple Qingming powder, as long as the Qingming incense is crushed, it is the monks who usually light it when they sleep, it has the effect of condensing and calming the nerves." ”
Xiao Yao took a deep breath of cigarette and said, "It's actually very simple, the flower garden that Zimo found before is actually a phantom soul flower. ”
Before the others could do anything, Mu Zixun was the first to jump up: "What did you say? Phantom Soul Flower? Isn't that the main material used to make Phantom Poison?"
Xiao Yao nodded: "That's right, the Phantom Soul Flower is the main material used to make several phantom poisons, and they are all very powerful phantom poisons, so this kind of flower belongs to the category of forbidden drugs in the entire Aura Continent." ”
Xiao Yao deliberately used it to look at the flower garden before, and through Shangguan Yunyan's explanation, Xiao Yao understood the role of this phantom soul flower, and also roughly deduced the black hand behind the scenes.
Xiao Yao said calmly again: "Actually, we were misled from the beginning, when we entered the Fengmen Village, the pollen of the Phantom Flower had already been inhaled by us, but the dosage was too small to have a seizure, and then the story told by Zixun planted the seeds, and when the medicinal seizures on your body occurred at this time, you would kill each other." ”
Long Yubei's hand-cranked paper fan had a calm face: "Then what if we didn't listen to the story told by Zixun? This should just be an accident, right?"
Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head: "That's not what I said, you must know that everyone nearby knows the horror of this Closed Gate Village, and even if you haven't heard of Sealed Door Village, then you will be tricked at this time, because people will have fear in their hearts, as long as there is fear of the pollen of the Phantom Soul Flower, it will be magnified." ”
Yang Yichen scratched his head: "Then big brother, why didn't you get hit?"
Xiao Yao glanced at Mu Zixun: "Zixun has a lot of medicine on her body, just like the Qingming powder just now, so when she inhales the poison powder, she should also be inhaling the antidote, as for me, my cultivation method is more special, it will automatically refine the impurities in my body that are not good for me, this poison powder is included, but after all, I haven't cultivated yet, so I was still affected for two or three seconds to see what I was most afraid of." ”
Yang Yichen became even more curious: "Big brother, what did you see?"
After asking, he turned his head to look at Mu Zixun again, because now Mu Zixun thought of what Xiao Yao yelled after he was hit just now, and knew that Xiao Yao was actually afraid of cockroaches.
At this time, Dongfang Bai finally got to the point: "Then who is planting so many forbidden drugs here, and what wants to harm us?"
Xiao Yao got rid of Yang Yichen's entanglement: "By the way, Lao Bai, this is a point, I speculate that this matter has something to do with the Li family that we will deal with next." ”
Xiao Yao told everyone about his previous speculation with Mu Zixun, and Zhou Tianya asked Xiao Yao a little at a loss: "Then what should we do after that?"
Everyone looked at Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao showed a warm smile like sunshine on his face: "Since they want us to die, then we will do it." ”
