Chapter 195: Night Exploration of the Demon Corpse Gate
There was silence all the way, and I don't know how long I walked, but the drowsy Ah Li suddenly woke up, pointed to the front and said, "It's here!" ”
The fat man rubbed his eyes and said, "It's time to get there, my hands are sore..."
The car stopped, this is a valley deep in the Demon Corpse Mountain, trees grow wildly, as far as the eye can see, except for mountains and mountains, everyone feels that they have become extremely small, as if they have arrived in a secret place isolated from the world.
A courtyard surrounded by a bamboo fence appeared in front of me, with blue bricks and green tiles, which seemed to blend in with the whole mountain, and seemed to be very harmonious.
"Come in, Grandpa Blind, Grandpa, Ah Li is back, guests are coming, where are you?" Ah Li warmly greeted everyone to enter the door, and at the same time loudly called the blind grandfather who often hung in her mouth.
"Forget it, I can't understand your kid's life more and more, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, in short, be more careful in the future..."
Qing Huizi, who had been silent for a long time, only spoke when he got out of the car, Li Qiufan nodded, the matter has come to this point, and there is no other way.
"Ah Li, you sneaked out again! Who told you to bring outsiders to the house! Do you want to be beaten again! ”
An old man came out from behind a thatched hut, lit a bamboo cane, and followed the voice.
When I walked in front of him, I found that the old man was quite tall, but very thin, because of his age, he was already a little hunchbacked, gray hair, deep wrinkles, a pair of eyes without eyeballs, the wounds were dark red and wrinkled, and there were many patches on his clothes, which looked a little oozing, but also very pitiful.
Ah Li stuck out his tongue mischievously, ran over and grabbed the blind old man's arm and said coquettishly: "People are too boring... I didn't have anything to do at home, so I ran out to play, and I left you food before leaving, and I fed the pigs and chickens! These people are all good people, and they have helped me, they just happened to have something to do to come to the Demon Corpse Mountain, and they have no place to live, so they come to live at home for a while. ”
"Nonsense, didn't I keep telling you that no one was allowed to know about it?" Although the blind man was scolding, he still touched Ah Li's head dotingly.
The blind man faced everyone and said in a stiff tone: "Everyone, it's not that I'm not hospitable, but you are not welcome in my family, please leave as soon as possible!" ”
"Grandpa, they... They're my friends, and it's not like we don't have a place to live, so you just let them stay for a few days! Ah Li shook the blind man's arm and pleaded.
In the face of Ah Li's begging, the old blind man seemed to have not heard, and blocked the door with a straight face, without the slightest intention of giving in, making Ah Li's face flush and shaking his arm incessantly.
"Old man, we are indeed here for a very important matter, or you can make a price, how much money will be paid for a night, we will pay!" The fat man saw that the old blind man was very good, and thought that he wanted money.
Unexpectedly, the old blind man said with a cold face on his face: "Whoever wants your money, leave quickly!" As he spoke, he raised his bamboo cane to drive people away.
Li Qiufan frowned and said, "What if I say that we are here to deal with the Demon Corpse Gate?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the old blind man's body shook slightly, the bamboo cane stopped in mid-air, and it took a while before he slowly spoke, but there was a trace of disdain in his tone: "Just a few of you, it's just a fool's dream!" I won't stop you if you want to send it to death, but please don't implicate our grandparents and grandchildren, for the sake of you sending my granddaughter back, I advise you, go back where you came from, Ah Li, send off guests! ”
The old blind man said, and turned straight to enter the house.
Qing Huizi then spoke: "Hey, two blood corpses that have been refined by evil methods are just some climate, if it weren't for my useless apprentice being poisoned by someone to poison the corpse king's bones, I wouldn't have to run this trip!" ”
The old blind man's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he turned back in horror.
"How do you... Know the bloody corpse?! ”
The old blind man's tone was shocked, and he trembled as his cane poked the ground aggressively.
"Hmph, some stinky rats that don't see people, they still think that they are doing it seamlessly, but those who should know already know it already knows, on the ninth day of the ninth month, the blood corpse is out of the coffin, and today is the sixth day of the first month, wait three more days, I will go up and see what this demon corpse door can do
Thing. ”
"Can you let us stay with you for a few days?"
"You're really... Not even afraid of bloody corpses? The old blind man hesitated.
Qing Huizi pretended to smile and said with his hands: "Lao Tzu has debuted for so many years, and I still don't know what it means to be afraid, if it weren't for some reason, I would have gone directly to kill the sect leader of the Corpse Immortal Sect in a matter of minutes." ”
Li Qiufan rolled his huge eyes, this old guy can blow the cow to death when he blows it.
Unexpectedly, the old blind man believed it.
"Come in, a few of you!" The old blind man was impressed by Qing Huizi's powerful momentum, and turned back to invite him in.
Ah Li smiled and enthusiastically led them to the place where they lived.
It is a house made entirely of bamboo, and even the sofas and beds are made of bamboo, and the air is filled with the smell of bamboo.
The inside was very spacious, Ah Li was running around looking for bedding, and she was very busy, and Li Qiufan and others also went to help her.
Li Qiufan asked curiously while helping: "There are only two people in your family, how can there be so many bedding?" ”
Ah Li smiled: "I have silkworms at home, and if I have nothing to do on weekdays, I use silk to make clothes and bedding, and I have made a lot of them over the years." ”
The fat man touched it and praised: "This is the authentic handmade silk quilt!" If you take it out and sell it, it is estimated that a set will cost thousands! ”
"Can you sell it for so much money?! I've given a lot of them to Grandma Shanli! Ah Li was surprised.
The fat man laughed, "Hey! When you get the blood corpse and detoxify Brother Fan, I will help you sell it online, and you will definitely make a lot of money, and your two will have a better life. ”
Ah Li said happily: "Okay, good! Fat brother, you can't lie to me. ”
"Don't worry!"
After laying out the futon, Li Qiufan lay down on it, and it was really comfortable, not only clean, but also with a faint fragrance.
"I can do housework, I can also build a house and make clothes and bedding, if anyone marries Ah Li in the future, it will be a blessing from eight lifetimes."
Ah Liqiao's face was slightly red, and she said angrily: "I'm only seventeen years old, little brother, don't bully me." ”
"Hahaha..."
After cleaning up, Ah Li said that he was going to prepare dinner, and Shocking also went to help.
Qing Huizi was in another room, and he didn't know what he was talking to the old blind man.
About an hour later, Ah Li called everyone to dinner.
Because there were too many people, they couldn't sit at the dinner table, so they brought a table and ate in the courtyard.
Because it was in the middle of nowhere, and there were only Ah Li and the old blind man, there was no electricity, so I lit a few candles.
Under the orange light, the dishes on the table exude an alluring heat, and there is a romantic feeling of a candlelit dinner.
In order to entertain them, Ah Li also deliberately killed a big rooster, in addition to fish and a few vegetables grown by himself, meat and vegetables are matched, not to mention how good the taste is.
Everyone was a little hungry, and picking up the chopsticks was a gobble up.
The food cooked by Ah Li is very different from that of the restaurant, mainly because the ingredients are simple, you can taste the umami of the ingredients themselves, and everyone eats very comfortably.
After the meal, the night was already very thick, there was no moon, only the insects and birds in the mountains were heard, and the frogs were heard.
Li Qiufan felt an unprecedented comfort, as if he had returned to the days when his family was talking and laughing beside the wheat stack after doing farm work when he was a child, not only a little emotional.
There was no mobile phone signal here, and the fat man felt a little bored, so he lay down for a while and said to Li Qiufan: "Brother Fan, why don't we go to the Demon Corpse Gate to explore the way first?" ”
"Pathfinding?"
"That's right, it's idle anyway, it's idle, didn't the master say that there are still a few days before the bloody corpse can be practiced, in order to move smoothly, go and step on it."
Li Qiufan thought for a while and said, "What you said makes sense, I'll ask the old man to see if he goes." ”
"No, what's there to explore? It's just a demon corpse door, just go in when the time comes, I want to go to you by yourself, Lao Tzu is tired for a day, and I want to sleep. ”
Qing Huizi scolded and directly picked the best bed and went to sleep.
Li Qiufan had already guessed that Qing Huizi would say this, and he didn't report any hope at all.
"Cut, you don't go to us! Ah Li, can you find your way to the Demon Corpse Gate? ”
Before Ah Li could speak, the old blind man stopped: "There are many corpse puppets in the Demon Corpse Gate, and they are heavily guarded, you can't mess around, in case they find out, it will be troublesome!" ”
Li Qiufan said: "It's okay, right?" We're not here to fight them, we're just going to explore the way, and we shouldn't be found if we hide some. ”
"Going to the Demon Corpse Gate is a big deal, you have to think about it in the long run, you..."
Before the old blind man finished speaking, he heard the voice of Qing Huizi from the house.
"Let them go, although this kid's strength is still almost hot, but as long as the blood corpse does not come out, those shrimp soldiers and crab generals can still deal with it, if he is killed by the demon corpse gate, then he is not worthy of being my apprentice!"
Qing Huizi spoke, and the old blind man weighed it and stopped stopping it: "This... Okay, but be careful! Don't reveal your whereabouts, Ah Li you take these talismans with you, and if something happens, take them out and use them. ”
The old blind man went back to the house and took a small bag and handed it to Ah Li, and told him some things that needed attention.
"Got it, grandpa, I remember everything you said!" Ah Li looked very excited, and the old blind man was still chattering, so she jumped up and down and pulled Li Qiufan and them out.
A group of five people took advantage of the night and marched towards the depths of the Demon Corpse Mountain under the leadership of Ah Li.
Li Qiufan found that Ah Li seemed to be very familiar with the way to the Demon Corpse Gate, so he asked her if she had been there before.
Ah Li shook his head and said: "No, grandpa never let me go to the mountains, saying that there are a lot of dangers, but since I was a child, he has always told me about the situation in the mountains, including where there is a road, where the stone is in what shape, which tree to turn right when I meet, how to go on a forked road, my ears are calloused, and I have already memorized it!" I can find my way with my eyes closed, and I'm so happy to finally be able to go around the mountains this time! ”
Li Qiufan smiled, this little girl seems to be a restless master.
In order to prevent being discovered, Li Qiufan gave everyone a hidden qi talisman, except for the stun and twelve, they had a divine talisman on their bodies, how could they use the hidden qi talisman drawn by him Li Qiufan...
The five of them were like ghosts in the mountains, shuttling through the dense forest, and the road that Ah Li said had long been covered by weeds and thorns, and they had to use a sickle to open the way while walking, so they didn't walk fast.
After walking slowly for a long time, Ah Li stopped in front of a huge ancient tree and said excitedly: "Found it, as long as you cross this tree, you will reach the territory of the Demon Corpse Gate!" ”
As he spoke, he had to move on.
"Wait!"
Li Qiufan grabbed Ah Li and frowned at the ancient tree.
"What's the matter, little brother?"
"There's weirdness ahead, and this old tree is not right, you go back!"
Stunned stepped forward quickly, protecting Ah Li behind him.
"Did something happen? What's wrong with the tree? Ah Li blinked and asked.
The sting replied: "This tree has become a spirit, and it is not a good spirit, there are a few resentments..."
"Dryads?! I don't look like it! The fat man groped his chin and said, "You can't be mistaken, right?" Isn't this just an ordinary old tree, thicker and taller than ordinary trees, where does it look like a spirit? ”
Li Qiufan said: "If you can see it at a glance, then Bai has been cultivating for so many years, and judging by the remaining grievances, this guy has already killed several people." ”
"Then why doesn't it attack us?" When the fat man heard that the old tree had killed someone, he couldn't help but get nervous.
"Who told you it didn't move, look behind you."
