At about eight o'clock in the morning, Zheng Xiaofeng woke up from his sleep, and there was still some pain in his body, but it no longer affected his normal movements, and this injury was not a big deal for him. Dong Que had to change shifts with him, and after yawning three or four times in a row, he quickly fell asleep. At twelve o'clock at noon, Dong Que also woke up, Zheng Xiaofeng changed back to the co-pilot's position, and the two of them were silent.

Along the way, Dong Que still took the initiative to try to chat with Zheng Xiaofeng, but still didn't get a response from Zheng Xiaofeng, it seems that as soon as he gets out of the fighting state, Zheng Xiaofeng will become a mute person again. Although Dong Que was helpless, he was almost used to it, and after being dull for a while, he hummed a song to himself.

"Congratulations on making a fortune~ Congratulations on your wonderful ~ The best please come over ~ If it's not good, please go away~ Oh etiquette is not to blame ~"

Sure enough, from the songs that a person likes to listen to, you can roughly deduce what kind of person he is.

To Dong Que's surprise, after humming the song for a while, Zheng Xiaofeng actually took the initiative to look at him, and after hesitating for a few moments, he actually said: "Actually, if you want to talk, you can talk about the topic I am interested in." ”

Dong Quede asked a little incredulously: "Then what topic are you interested in?" ”

Zheng Xiaofeng said: "For example...... Your spells. ”

Dong Que immediately laughed, and said in his heart Sure enough, ordinary people are still inevitably curious about this matter.

"My spells, actually, are a long story, I don't know what you want to hear."

"Feel free to do so, just be concise."

"Be concise, I'll try my best to ......" Dong Que scratched his head, thought for a while and said, "Then let's start with its source, our ancestor Master Puguan is a yin and yang family in the pre-Qin period, and the spells practiced by my Taoist people are all founded by his old man, and these spells can be divided into six major factions in total: spells, talismans, imperial objects, formations, psychics, and medical skills." Among the four closed disciples in each generation, except for the eldest disciple, who needs to study all six spells, the other three can only choose two of them at most to practice, and they must not repeat or communicate with each other. For example, my master Jiang Zhong Hanren is the master of these six spells, and he is also the first person to actually apply these spells and the knowledge in the "Hundred Ghosts Night Walker" to the treasure thief world, although his old man is now only ranked fifth among the sixteen thieves, but if it weren't for the fact that ten years ago, he was accidentally injured in a battle with the second-ranked faceless man, forcing him to retire early, his position in the treasure stealing world is by no means comparable to today. ”

Zheng Xiaofeng nodded thoughtfully, and after being silent for a while, he asked again: "Literally, the palm thunder you used last night should belong to one of the spells?" ”

Dong Que snapped his fingers and replied, "That's right, the beginner thunder method, this is the most basic spell." The so-called spell is to use a specific spell as a guide, invoking the spiritual power of the four images of wind, thunder, light, and darkness between heaven and earth to achieve the spell of driving away evil spirits and subduing demons. But I'm ashamed to say it, although I am the forty-third generation of the eldest disciple of any sect, the talent is pitiful, these beginner spells, my three junior disciples have mastered them all in only half a year, and I have not been able to understand it for three years, I am not afraid of your jokes, sometimes I really don't understand why Master he accepted me as his closed disciple, I can't hide it, last night was the first time I successfully used this palm thunder, and I don't know if your kid is too big, Or I'm finally lucky to be so lucky in my life. ”

Saying that, Dong Quede sighed deeply, Zheng Xiaofeng couldn't help but be dumbfounded, the two of them have known each other for so long, this seems to be the first time that Dong Quede has spoken to him in such a serious tone, and it can be seen that this is a knot in Dong Quede's heart.

"Probably...... This is what your master is talking about, he asked you to go down the mountain to experience, just to let you fully explore your potential. Zheng Xiaofeng said plainly, which was not a comfort, but it was obvious that his attitude towards Dong Quede was very different from a few days ago.

You must know that the last time the two of them talked about Dong Que's experience of going down the mountain, Zheng Xiaofeng also said something like "Your master asked you to come out to send you to death".

Fortunately, Zheng Xiaofeng now knows that Dong Quede is not deliberately lying to him, it is just that he has not seen these bizarre things, but he just apologizes...... It's better to excuse himself for now, he is no longer a person who has the heart to apologize to others.

Zheng Xiaofeng immediately changed the topic and said: "Those strange insects, I think you can also write them into your "Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Urn", I have never seen those things, and they should be regarded as strange stories." ”

Dong Que said: "Don't say it, I checked it when you were asleep, and there is a very detailed record of this insect in the book." This kind of thing is called 'snake', also known as 'ghost snake', 'water crossbow', 'archer', and is an animal shaped like a turtle with three legs. It is rumored to live in water most of the time, and when it detects someone passing by, it shoots mud and sand into the person's body. People who are shot by it will soon get sores all over their bodies, and even if they are just shot in a shadow, they will get sick, and the idiom 'insinuation' comes from it. And although the things we encountered were slightly different from those described in the book, they were not much different after all, and I thought it should be the same thing, and the book said that as long as you carry wormwood with you when you travel, this insect will naturally take a detour. ”

Zheng Xiaofeng let out an "oh" and nodded silently, and the impression of Dong Lack in his heart was a little better again.

Around the end of the evening, a surprise appeared in front of the two people, and I don't know when they could faintly see through the car window, a small village and town were located at the end of the field of vision.

This is undoubtedly a great thing for the two people who are already covered in wounds, and it is much better to rest in a populated place than to pitch a tent in the desert.

It's just that the road to the village and town is much farther than they imagined, and by the time the two of them drove the car to the entrance of the village and town, it was already completely dark. Seeing that the roads in the town were generally quite wide, the two of them did not get out of the car and drove the car in. The people here seemed to be familiar with outsiders, and there were not a few people who focused their eyes on these two people along the way, and occasionally a few people cast strange glances, and the focus of attention seemed to be only the car box that had been corroded by venom. The two of them soon noticed that the life of the people in this village and town seemed to be relatively simple, with simple clothes, simple buildings, simple furnishings, and even incandescent lamps could not be seen. Most of the residents are ethnic minorities, and they don't understand the language, but it feels like it's Uyghur.

After driving for about 20 minutes, Dong Que had to park the car next to a large house that resembled a hotel. The two people got out of the car and walked straight in, and there was an old woman who was washing vegetables at the door.

Dong Que smiled and asked, "Hello grandma, is this a hotel?" ”

The old woman was stunned for a moment, it seemed that she didn't understand what Dong was missing.

Immediately after that, she said a lot about "Ula Ula", and made a gesture pointing inward, Zheng Xiaofeng and Dong Que looked at each other confusedly, Dong Que asked: "Grandma, you drop, can you speak Chinese to work?" ”

At this moment, a young man who also looked like a Uyghur came out of the house, came to the two of them, smiled and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the two of you?" ”

The accent is a little intertwined, but it's completely intelligible.

Dong Que asked, "Can you stay here?" ”

"Absolutely." The man said, "We're here for outsiders passing by, so come in with me." ”

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and walked in behind the man, the man glanced at the truck outside the door, and suddenly smiled and asked, "Did you encounter sand paralysis when you two came?" ”

Dong Que was stunned for a moment, and asked with a blank face: "What?" What wall? ”

"It's a kind of insect that sprays venom, and once the venom is touched, it won't take long for them to be paralyzed and even unconscious, so we locals call them 'sand paralysis'." The man explained, "You can tell from the car you drive, I didn't think you met them and still made it here, it's really lucky." ”

Dong Que suddenly realized, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said in his heart, "Sha Paralysis", this name is really ...... Wonderful......

"If we were really lucky, we wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing." He said.

The man said: "Normally, people who come here for the first time basically have to be hit, especially near the water's edge, there are a lot of those things, and when you leave, I will bring you some wormwood, and if you take them with you, they will not come close." ”

Dong Que shrugged his shoulders: "If we had known this method, we wouldn't have been so embarrassed." ”

Passing through a corridor, there was a small three-story building in front of it, and next to it was a courtyard with a few tables and a few people who were also dressed as foreigners eating there. There is an incandescent lamp hanging on the roof of the small building, which is responsible for lighting the entire courtyard, and the light is not very bright, which makes the whole hotel have a general atmosphere of an inn in ancient times. The man said as he walked: "In the whole town, there is only one hotel in us, and there will always be people like you who travel and explore on weekdays, passing by us. Don't worry, we don't charge expensive, you can sleep here for a night, just give me 120 yuan, and the food money is also included. ”

When Dong Que heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face, this was the smallest expense they had spent since they went out this time. Dong Que hurriedly smoked a cigarette and handed it to the man, and asked enthusiastically: "Thank you so much, I haven't asked you what to call it?" ”

The man was not polite, he directly pinned the cigarette to his ear, and replied, "You can just call me Aini." ”

As he passed by the sets of tables and chairs, Ani pointed to him again and said, "When you want to eat, tell me that you can eat in the house, you can eat downstairs, and if you eat in the house, I can send it to you." ”

Dong Que nodded, and the three of them came all the way to the third floor of the small building, and Aini led the two people to the door of a room at the end of the corridor, handed them a key and said, "If you have any requirements, I will try my best to help if I can meet them." ”

Dong Que said: "It's nothing, but in the end, I have to ask you about something, that is, what is the name of our town?" ”

"Aiyi, Aiyi Village." Aini replied, "In Mandarin, it means Moon Village. ”
