09 Aoyagi Town, which is dominated by resentment

"Looks like we should have inquired about the situation here before we came, but we shouldn't stay here for long, or it might be dangerous when it gets dark." The black pig was very worried, and he was full of fear of this place.

"No, even if there are any demons and monsters, I will find out the blue devil." For Qi Xue, who finally came here, how can he give up so easily?

Jielan didn't know what to do for a while, so she just said, "Let's try our best to find it first, and then make plans before it gets dark!" ”

They didn't say much more, and began to search the past from house to house in all directions of the town, but after searching for a long time, they could not find half a figure. Jielan was a little discouraged, this Qingliu Town seemed to have been attacked by powerful demons overnight, all the smoke disappeared, seeing that it was already evening, the Yin Qi of Qingliu Town at this time was heavier, if you don't take advantage of this to leave, I'm afraid there will really be a catastrophe.

But looking at Chengfeng, who was unconscious on the back of the mink, Jielan couldn't make up her mind to leave here, because as soon as she left, Chengfeng lost the last hope of survival.

A few people were hesitating to themselves, but they heard the sound of wood falling in the alleyway outside an old house. Jielan and the others were shocked, and hurriedly looked into the alleyway, but saw that in the alleyway, there was a little boy in tattered clothes, dirty and thin, who was picking up the firewood piled up at the mouth of the alley and preparing to take it somewhere.

When Jielan saw a living person, the only living person, she immediately ran over happily and shouted to the child, "Hey, child, I want to ask you something." ”

Before he could finish speaking, the child turned pale with fright when he saw Jielan, and his whole body trembled, and he screamed, and ran to the other end of the alley, because he was so flustered that he almost fell to the ground several times during the run.

But seeing this only person, how could Jielan be willing to let it go, she chased after her and said to Qi Xue: "Xue, you take care of Chengfeng, I'll chase him." ”

After all, the child couldn't run Jielan, and he had to catch up in a few steps, but when he turned to another alley in a blink of an eye, Jielan ran over and suddenly disappeared the little boy's figure, but there were walls on both sides, unless the child could fly, how could he disappear out of thin air.

At this time, the black pig also followed, and when he saw that there was only Jielan, he was a little puzzled and asked, "Lan, what about the little boy?" ”

Jielan shook her head, "It's really strange, I saw him running in here with my own eyes, but why did he suddenly disappear?" ”

"Really? Could it be that the child was transformed by a monster? Black Pig was also surprised.

"I don't think so, if it were a demon, how could it become a little beggar? Why will you run away when you see me? Although Jielan is sure that he is a human child, she can't figure out why he disappeared.

While the two were talking, they saw that the sky had changed dramatically, the sky was full of dark clouds, and a strong wind was blowing, and the wind was whistling, blowing the already somewhat dim Aoyagi Town into dust, and it looked even more eerie than at first.

The black pig covered his eyes, afraid of being blinded by the dust, and he hurriedly said: "Blue, I think we should leave here for the time being, and come back tomorrow, otherwise, I'm worried that something will happen." ”

Jielan didn't answer, and she herself was still hesitating whether to go or stay, but when she hesitated, she saw a heavy wooden board not far from her side being blown up by the strong wind, smashed on the wall, and broke into two.

And what Jielan cares about is that under this plank, there seems to be a hole, and there is a faint human voice in the hole, Jielan covered her eyes with her sleeves, and walked towards the entrance of the cave curiously.

Jielan was taken aback, but soon calmed down and shouted at the black pig, "Long Yi, come and see, they are here." ”

When he put his head over and looked down, the faces of those who were hiding under the hole suddenly saw a demon beast, and they were even more panicked and ran towards the depths of the cave.

"I... Doesn't it scare them? "Black Pig feels a little sorry.

Jielan just smiled faintly, and didn't take it to heart, she said to the black pig: "I want to go down, Long Yi, you can stay on it!" ”

"It's... How does this work? What if there is any danger below? Black Pig worried.

Jielan shook her head, "Just wait for me up there!" As soon as she finished speaking, she jumped into the hole, and as soon as she jumped down, she saw several crude wooden arrows shooting at her.

There was a fire in the hole, and because of the poor air circulation, the fire flickered and dimmed, and there was a pot with a missing horn on the fire, and in the pot it was boiling disgusting rats and the like.

The cave is surrounded by simple furniture, such as stools, dining tables, chopsticks, etc., and there are no beds underneath, only straw floors.

Seeing this, Jielan felt a little pity in her heart, and she asked, "Are you the people of this Qingliu Town?" ”

Those people just looked at her with fear on their faces, trembling and saying, "Demon, get out!" ”

"I'm not a demon, I'm here from out of town to look for the Blue Devil, I want to ask any of you who knows where the Blue Devil is? Why is this Aoyagi like this, and why are you hiding underground? Jielan asked a series of questions, but the people remained there like frightened birds, not saying a word, just looking at her in fear.

Jielan looked at these people, three of them were children, two were dying old men, one was a middle-aged woman, and one was a middle-aged man with a broken leg, all of whom were so thin and skinny that it seemed that a gust of wind could sweep them away.

Jielan thought that they must be hungry and panicked, and hurriedly shouted to the black pig on the top of the cave, "Long Yi, throw down the dry food we brought!" ”

When the black pig on the top of the cave heard this, he hurriedly threw down the dry food, and after Jielan caught it, she took out the cakes inside, walked slowly towards them cautiously, and said, "There is something to eat here, if you are hungry, make do with it!" ”

These people must have been so hungry that they were no longer afraid of Jielan when they saw that they were eating, so they ran over and snatched the food like crazy, and then hid in the corner and ate it in a big gulp.

Jielan, whose hands became empty in an instant, looked at these people on the verge of life and death, and her heart was quite unbearable, so she had to care: "You eat slowly, don't choke." ”

After they finished eating, these people were not so afraid of rejection of Jielan, Jielan asked Long Yi to throw down the water bag as well, she walked to the child she met at the beginning, handed him the water, and asked, "Why do you have a good house to live in, but you run to live under this dark and damp underground?" ”

The boy sputtered, "Because... Because there are demons on it, we don't dare to live on it. ”

"How can the town of Nuoda be occupied by demons, and will no one get rid of them?" Jielan was very puzzled.

"It's useless, it's that this Qingliu Town is shrouded in resentment, as long as this resentment is still there, these demons will only grow more and more, and they can't be eliminated." The old man was already beating his chest in grief when he spoke of it.

"Resentment? What's going on? Jielan asked.

"It's Qingjun, it's Qingjun's resentment, we people can only wait for death, die early and get out early!" The old lady was already in tears.

"Qingjun? Could it be the Blue Devil you're looking for? Jielan secretly speculated, and there was some hope in her heart, and she hurriedly asked, "Is this Qingjun you are talking about a green devil with the strange power of resurrection?" ”

The middle-aged man with the broken leg said: "What green devil we don't know?" I only know that there was a strange child here from ten years ago, that child can save many living beings with his own strength, what flowers and trees, animals and birds, or human animals, he can rely on his strength to heal, we also got a treasure when we Qingliu Town, Qingliu Town also prospered because of him, but I didn't expect that his existence has hurt our whole village, now don't talk about him, anyway, we are all people who are about to die, what are you doing with these? ”

Jielan could even conclude that the person they mentioned was the person she was looking for, and she hurriedly asked, "Where is this person now?" I have a friend who is in critical need of his treatment? ”

The middle-aged man with the broken leg sighed and said, "You can't find him, he's no longer here?" ”

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Jielan's heart trembled, and she said, "No... At? She stood for a long time before she came to her senses and asked, "What is the matter, can you tell me more about it?" ”

"I don't think you're a bad person, so I'll just talk to you." A sad look appeared on his face, "This green devil has been gifted since birth, who doesn't envy the ability to resurrect from the dead, at first he was only famous in our Qingliu Town, and we all admired him as a holy child, but it didn't take long for many dignitaries to hear about his wonderful ability, and they began to ask him to treat their illnesses and injuries with a lot of money, he was just a child, so he naturally agreed, but in the end, the city court sent someone to ask Qingjun to be the imperial doctor and the like." ”

"Qingjun is reluctant to leave his homeland, insist on not going, but it is really a disaster, we don't know what happened, only know that late that night in the night sky of the entire Qingliu Town came from Qingjun's crying, that voice until now we still remember, he has been calling his mother, has been shouting until dawn, although we all want to help him, but who dares to go against the people of the city, naturally silent, to the next day, he is no more, we don't know where he went, Later, I heard that there was a prodigy who came back from the dead in the city court, and we guessed that he had been forcibly taken away, and I don't know if it was because of his resentment or because of what, since Qingjun left, this Qingliu Town has withered overnight, and the paddy fields have dried up, and then the yin qi hit, and it began to become a place occupied by demons. When the man said this, he was already in tears, and he must have endured a lot of hardships in these days.
