Chapter Seventy-Six: The Secret
"Her lips were blue and her eyes were black, and she had been poisoned. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Sixteen put his two fingers in the Annan people, and with a slight pinch, the highly toxic color on his lips faded. "An Sheng, please stab her Feng Chi, Parkway******* An Nan's silver needles exert force, the two refreshing acupuncture points were stimulated at the same time, An Sheng's whole person popped out like a compressed spring, she exclaimed, "Wow, yes~" An Nan held her hand tightly, "It's okay." She needed to coax An Nan like a child, and An Nan breathed a sigh of relief, "Whew....... was accidentally attacked by poison for a while, and it was really a capsized boat in the gutter. ”
Cannon Qiang then said: "You're all right, can you save me if you have time?"
An Nan quickly swept over his body and said, "It's all a little injured, it's no problem to wipe your saliva." ”
The cannon was eager to curse, but he was covered with wounds, but he was not deeply wounded. Su Xiu'e teased: "Are you going to collect medicine, or are you going to suffer?"
An Nan was unconvinced and said, "Of course I'm going to collect medicine!" She removed the big straw basket on her chest, but the herbs in the straw basket were all ordinary. Cannon Qiang said: "We are too lucky, or this Nine Mountains chain is too dangerous, at the beginning I met a spotted leopard, chased three miles, and then strayed into the mouth of the cannibal flower, almost died, and was finally chased out by a red python." As a result, we had only been in the mountains for an hour, and we fled with our tails between our legs. It was also at that time that a group of poisonous scorpions suddenly descended from the upper part of the woods, and the little girl was accidentally hit. ”
An Nan hurriedly said: "What's wrong, I called it careless, in fact, I saw it a long time ago, but it was just ...... My Gu worm loss is too great, and I won't be able to sacrifice it for a while. "That's right, in the battle of the Demon Palace, most of the Poison Emperor Gu was drenched by the rain sacrifice, and the tiger beetle was burned by the mutant hunters, and now An Nan has no way to protect himself.
Sixteen said, "There are some things I want to talk to you about alone. ”
An Nan opened a pair of bright big eyes, first froze for a while, and then hurriedly pushed everyone, "What are you looking at? Get out!" A group of people quickly left, and Su Xiu'e handed the human skin to Sixteen and said, "I'm going to bathe." With that, he yawned lazily and walked into the bath.
An Nan was a little squirming, "Okay, everyone is gone, say what you want to say." ”
Sixteen: "This matter is very important. ”
An Nan nodded.
Sixteen looked around, still felt that the partition wall had ears, and was not very relieved, so he led An Nan to the utility room, An Nan's face turned even redder, "Little bald head, is our progress faster?"
Sixteen: "It's a matter of human life, of course, the sooner the better." ”
"Ahh I...... No relevant experience yet. ”
"Don't think about it, you can do it. ”
"Since you say so, then I'm not impossible. You have to be gentle......" Annan had just unbuttoned her tiny collar. Seeing Sixteen take out a foul-smelling and rotten human skin from behind him, An Nan was stunned, "What are you doing?"
Sixteen Dao: "It should be some kind of Gu technique, related to the murder of Old Man Liu discovered last night." I hope you can explain it in detail. ”
An Nan was suddenly very disappointed, she pinched her nose and took the human skin, maybe she was too focused just now to pay attention to the rancid smell of human flesh. After observing for a while, she said: "It's the word Gu, a common technique in our hometown. "The word Gu is not a Gu worm, but a kind of Gu thing, and its body comes from some kind of herbaceous plant. Peeling off the skin of the plant, extracting the liquid of the plant, and piercing the skin with a tattoo is equivalent to allowing the herb to grow in the human skin. This is a means used by the Miao people to keep secrets, and some particularly important passwords and numbers will be saved in this way.
Sixteen: "Sure enough." "There was a large vat in the utility room, and the vat was full of melted snow water, which would not be used to boil water, so Sixteen put the highly rancid human skin in the jar and washed it. As the blood stains and turbidity slowly faded, An Nan exclaimed: "Oh, this word Gu is not ordinary, it is actually afraid of water." Sixteen scooped the human skin out of the water, and saw that the tattoo on the skin had faded a little, and he was as weak as a drowning man, and he did not make noise everywhere, and entered a state of suspended animation.
An Nan said: "When refining the word Gu, you can choose some weaknesses to practice, such as water and fire, so that it is convenient to destroy the word Gu." Obviously, the old man Liu you are talking about is my fellow countryman, and he left some secret on his back, but he wants to destroy it. With that, she took the human skin out of Sixteen's hands and spread it on the ground, the dark blue lines were irregular, and it didn't look like any hieroglyphs. An Nan said: "It may have been soaked a long time ago, I can't understand it." ”
Sixteen: "There is still the rest of the treasurer's place, and I want to put it all together to figure it out." ”
An Nan said: "Then have you ever thought about why Old Man Liu wanted to destroy this thing? No matter what he had recorded on his skin, he also paid the price with his life. It is true that this word Gu is afraid of water, but it is not overnight to soak like this, he definitely soaked himself in a bucket for a few days and nights, and soaked his skin to pieces. What kind of secret is worth his desperate protection?"
Sixteen: "I'll find out, and say good night to Jing'er for me." ”
Looking at the back of Sixteen leaving, An Nan sighed softly. She first said hello to An Sheng, and then went to Jing'er's room. She saw Jing'er lying by the window, looking at the crowd below, and she didn't even hear the sound of the door being pushed.
The most beautiful woman leans on the window railing, and the lights are full of songs.
She was so beautiful, An Nan couldn't bear to disturb such a beautiful beauty, so she cautiously walked to the bed. Jing'er spoke, "Is it An Nan?"
An Nan nodded, "Yes." Sixteen have urgent matters to go out, let me accompany you. ”
Jing'er, of course, was a little lost, she was draped in a futon and held her cheek with one hand. Fireworks are being set off on the streets, and the fireworks soaring into the sky are brilliant and colorful, but how many of them can last for a long time? The fireworks from this sky are just for the long-cherished wish of the people of the town to enjoy the beauty. The sadness of fireworks is not that it does not live long enough, but that it cannot control its own destiny, it should be seen by more people, but once it is ignited, there is only a choice left to fight to the death.
Jing'er was just worried about Sixteen, she said: "Sixteen has found out that Old Man Liu's murder is strange again? He is always worried about others, when can he think about himself." ”
An Nan didn't speak, but sighed in his heart: "Aren't you always thinking about others? The chill outside the window became stronger, and Jing'er said, "It may snow again soon, I hope Sixteen won't go too long." ”
Annan said, "Do you have to wait for him to come back?"
Jing'er didn't answer this sentence, and before she knew it, Sixteen had already occupied her heart, her lungs, and her internal organs.
By the time Sixteen walked back to the old street, the cold air between heaven and earth was pressing, and even tourists were gradually scarce, and the wind was full of loneliness and depression. If it weren't for the lights on one room after another, Sixteen would have thought that these rooms were just corpses, and he would have seen that the lights of Lao Liu's house were still on.
The snow is finally falling.
"Thankfully, the candle is lit. The crowd was walking in the room, and the cripples stared at the orange candle flames.
The shopkeeper laughed, "Do you remember this candle?"
"I won't forget. ”
Many years ago, the crippled Zhang came to Lingnan Town with a body of blood, and it was the butcher Li who carried him into the inn, and it was also snowing that day, and he only remembered the warm candlelight. The cripple's eyebrows were thick and thick, his eyes were also full of energy, and his cold face and pointed chin were condensed in a straight line, which made this person a little more stable and cruel.
The shopkeeper patted the cripple Zhang on the shoulder, "Fortunately, you still remember, when we came to Lingnan Town, we didn't want to be held accountable for what we had done before. As long as there is this. He took out the washed human skin piece by piece and nailed it to the table. "Lao Liu really has a map, as long as we finish this vote, everyone will not worry about the rest of their lives. ”
The cripple Zhang said, "Have you noticed that a human skin is missing?"
The shopkeeper said, "It doesn't matter, I already know where that piece of human skin is, and we must not leak any rumors." ”
Butcher Li said: "That's right. His face changed, and several of the men in the meat shop rushed in and closed the door. They carried half-meter-long meat choppers. Butcher Li smiled viciously: "Can't you leak the rumors?
