"Who the hell are you?"

Inside the house, a thick velvet blanket was spread on the ground, and there were no stools and chairs, so Shangguan Li and Xitu sat directly on the ground.

As soon as I sat down, I heard the question.

The elder stood in the doorway with his cane.

Shangguan Li didn't rush to answer, looked around, and muttered.

"It's so clean, it can't be to prevent me, right?"

The elder's face was even more unsightly.

Seeing him like this, Shangguan Li smiled.

"Elders don't need to know who I am, everyone has their own purpose, as long as you give me what I want. Not only did I not pursue the matter of you putting smoke into my sister and my sister's house in the middle of the night, but I also helped you detoxify, how about it? ”

The Elder's flabby, dry face shuddered.

Do you even recognize miasma?

Could she really cure the disease that had plagued their village for decades?

Shangguan Li waved his hand, speaking faster, but very clearly.

"If the elders are unwilling to make this deal...... That's okay too. ”

She smiled and looked at her.

"But what I want, I still want it. Don't call me a bully. ”

As he spoke, he got up and left.

"Wait!"

The elder hurriedly stopped her, and Shangguan Li's legs, which had just been straightened, bent back again, looking at him for a long time.

"If the girl really has the ability......"

The elder walked over slowly and stretched out his thin wrist in front of Shangguan Li.

She raised her delicate long eyebrows, a little surprised.

"You're poisoned too?"

"Girl, just look at it."

Shangguan Li unceremoniously put his hand on it, and then was immediately taken aback.

The elder's pulse was so faint that it was almost imperceptible! Ordinary people like this have already entered a deep coma.

Can he still go for a walk outside?

Catching a glimpse of surprise flashing across her face, the elder said slowly.

"This is Arrowa's curse."

Situ raised her head suddenly, she didn't understand much of the things in the clouds just now, but she could hear the three words Arowa clearly.

Shangguan Li frowned and let go of the elder's hand.

"Cursed?"

"Well, my days are numbered. If you don't talk about these things, you will follow me into the ground. ”

The elder sighed with emotion, and even sat down on the ground with Shangguan Li. This move is as difficult for the elderly as it is for them to do a backflip.

But he did it with ease.

Shangguan Li let out an "oh", and a sneer came out of his face.

"Want to stall and wait for someone to come?"

The elder paused, seemed unaware of her cold tone, and spoke directly.

"Don't look at our small village, in fact, it has existed for a long time. About 800 years ago, our ancestors had a neighbor in the middle of these mountains. ”

Arjowa.

Situ silently answered in his heart.

But she reacted immediately, eh, no, they were bargaining with this old man, what kind of legend did he tell?

"Hey, old man......"

"It doesn't matter."

Shangguan Li interrupted her with a wave of her hand, and looked at the elder with a faint expression.

"You say."

The elder lowered his head and coughed, a mocking smile flashing across his mouth, but when he looked up again, he had already returned to his original state.

"It's a mysterious and powerful tribe that doesn't interact with outsiders."

"Until one day the ancestors saved a man by the river. He was dressed in pitch black, the clear water of the river was blackening beneath him, and strange flowers were blooming on his face, and that was the beginning of our nightmare. ”

He read this passage in a low voice, and after many years, Shangguan Li's arms were covered with goosebumps.

The body is poisonous, and the face is painted with a pattern of flowers......

"That's the man from the depths of the mountains, and we put him in the village to heal his wounds."

The elder maintained that slow tone and said slowly.

"Later he told us that he was a member of the Arova clan, and that Arova was able to listen to the sounds of the mountains and rivers and get the strength to survive in peace."

Shangguan Li raised his eyebrows.

"Speaking of people, you mean that they are highly skilled in poison and medicine?"

The elder looked at her deeply and nodded.

"In order to repay us, the man began to treat the people of the village. Diseases that seem to us to have no cure, he is unhindered. Over time, he became the most respected person in our village, especially above the village chief. ”

"What's the deal with the curse?"

Seeing that he couldn't get to the point, Situ couldn't help but ask.

"Young people, listen to the elders and have enough patience."

I don't know if this past incident gave the elder inexplicable confidence, and when he lowered his eyes slightly, he regained his composure when he first saw him.

Xitu, who was blocked, was about to blow up on the spot, but was immediately smoothed back by Shangguan Li's hand, and she said leisurely.

"And then?"

The elder glanced at her, and there was a hint of grief and indignation on his face that could not be hidden.

"Later we learned that it was not a god who had come to save us, but a demon in human skin!"

The coldness in his words made Xitu shiver, but Shangguan Li didn't seem to be aware of it, and just cast a puzzled look.

"He came to our village and stayed for two years. Every time he treats the people in the village, he will add a taste of medicinal herbs, purple, smelling a faint fragrance, he said that this is a calming medicine, we all believe it. ”

"Isn't it?"

Xitu is a person who remembers eating and not fighting, so he forgot the gap between him and the elder just now, and asked involuntarily.

The elder sneered.

"No, that's a vicious poison! The poisoned person will not be able to remember things at first, gradually lose his temper, and finally go insane, like a wild beast, either in a frenzy, or kill each other without consciousness. ”

Situ's eyes widened, and this poison?

"It took us two months to save a life, and it took him two years to ruin us for eight hundred years."

The elder's voice was a little desolate, and he smelled worried.

"Fortunately, there were still some people in the village who had never been treated by him at that time, and the rest of the people gathered together, collected the bones of the villagers, and rebuilt their homes."

Shangguan Li's hand supported half of her face, making it difficult to see her expression, and she didn't seem to be moved much by the story of "The Farmer and the Snake".

"Then this poison should have been gone, and it has continued for another eight hundred years...... Could it be that the corpses are polluting the land? ”

"The girl is really smart."

The elder did not deny her words, but Situ sensed that something was wrong.

"Wait, wait. Then you have lived here for so many years, not moving and waiting for the inheritance of this poisonous ancestor? ”
