Chapter 108: A fishy smell

It was night again, the old woman left the room, and Hua Mengyu quietly opened her eyes.

Dongfang Xiaozhu closed her eyes and felt it, and after making sure that the old woman was asleep, she reached out and took out a charm from the storage bag and covered the two of them inside.

"Mengmeng, what did you find?"

"There is a problem with these villagers, the reason why Brother Yue and I came to this village is because the old city lord of Xianhe Mansion received a message from his daughter, so he will find someone to come here.

But since we came here, everyone showed that they had seen outsiders for the first time, they were lying, we were separated from Brother Yue again, we can't sit still, we go separately, you go to the village to go around, I'll go to the village chief's house to see. ”

Hua Mengyu sat up, analyzed what she saw and heard, and made a plan.

And so it was! OK, go our separate ways. Dongfang Xiaozhu heard these words, and the guess in her heart was also confirmed.

Hua Mengyu and Dongfang Xiaozhu slapped a few invisibility talismans on their bodies, carefully pushed open the door, and left slowly.

Hua Mengyu rushed to the village chief's house, and Dongfang Xiaozhu was responsible for inspecting the entire village.

Before leaving, they also put their pillows under the quilt as if they were still sleeping in bed.

After Hua Mengyu came to the village chief's house, he quietly jumped into the courtyard, and when he came to the door, in order not to wake up the village chief, he possessed his spiritual power all over his body and recited a spell.

He stood forward suddenly, and when he reappeared, he was in the house.

Hua Mengyu searched in the village chief's house, and then went to the front and back of the house to check, and when she found a small house behind the house, she was about to open it.

The lights in the house turned on, Hua Mengyu was startled, and hurriedly hid aside, even if he had an invisibility charm on his body, he still didn't dare to be careless.

I saw the village chief walk out, take out a key from his body, walk in, and bolt the door back.

Hua Mengyu originally wanted to observe, but there were no wooden windows in this room, and she didn't hear a sound for a long time.

She couldn't stay long, so she went back into the house, took a closer look, and left.

On the other side, the children of Yuexuan were lost.

"Brother Yue, this is a dead end, we've been walking for about a day, and we still can't get out, and we can't even do anything about the Shadowless Bead."

Han Yu frowned, and his tone was very anxious.

They had been in this situation since they came in, there were no obstacles around, but they couldn't get out no matter how they walked, and the Shadowless Bead didn't work.

Even Edgeworth tried, but there was still no way, they couldn't fly, and they tried winding the line, but in the end they returned to the same place, where they first entered.

"As far as I can see, this is a formation within a formation, and the formation is not here, but outside, and we need to break the formation from the outside so that we can leave." At this time, Shen Xixing explained aloud.

He had lived for hundreds of years and had seen too many things, and he could see this formation at a glance.

"Not here, is this the Correspondence Maze?" Han Yu was surprised.

"Yo, it seems that you are quite knowledgeable, that's right, this is the letter maze, although the level of this letter maze is not strong, but it is very entangled, in it, you can't get out, the news can't get out, and this array is outside, all you want is to wait, wait until people are desperate."

Shen Xixing glanced at him appreciatively and explained the origin of the letter maze.

"Won't we be able to get out? Can't you split it directly? Hearing Shen Xixing say this, Han Yu asked.

"Well, it's strange here, and if you use brute force, it's useless. Eh, Brother Yue, what can you do? Shen Xixing spread his hands, saying that he couldn't help it, and then asked Yuexuan Gongzi.

"Split it directly, there's no time to wait." As he spoke, Prince Yuexuan took out his sword.

Yuexuan Gongzi's sword is called Yaoxing Sword, which is a sword that does not know the grade, but few people can let him hold the sword against him, every time he takes out the sword, it is a tragic battle, but at this time he took out his sword,

It can be seen that even he has no way to do this formation, and several other people also know the plan of Yuexuan Gongzi.

Yue Xuan Gongzi was about to find a weak place to split this formation, when suddenly Kun Zhong shouted.

"Look! Is that a gap? ”

A few people looked in the direction he was pointing, and there was indeed a small gap there, which could not be found unless you looked closely.

"Let's go!" After saying that, Yuexuan Gongzi took the lead and flew towards the gap.

Several other people hurriedly followed, only to find that there was a small gap, which could only allow one person to pass.

Prince Yuexuan went out first, then Han Yu, and finally Shen Xixing and Kunzhong.

When they came out, it was already dark.

"How did time pass so quickly, we didn't even find out."

Several people also discovered that every time they had fallen into the formation, a long time had passed when they came out again, and if they continued like this, their time would be delayed.

"Don't go in from the front, go in from the back mountain." Yuexuan Gongzi also noticed this problem.

At the same time, he also realized that someone was deliberately delaying them, it seemed that Hua Mengyu and the two of them were in danger, and this person's purpose was them.

As soon as they heard this, they agreed, and immediately flew into Edgeworth, leaving the intersection of the village, and flying towards the woods in the back mountain.

It didn't take long for the children of Yuexuan to arrive in a forest, and Han Yu took out the compass, originally wanting to guide the direction, but he didn't expect that this compass would fail.

"It seems that there is a big problem here, and I can't even tell the direction." Kun Zhong saw the compass in Han Yu's hand and said with a solemn expression.

"That's easy to do." Shen Xixing took out a golden thread.

If you wrap the gold thread around the tree, you won't be able to see it if you don't look closely, and you won't have to worry about being seen.

When several people saw Shen Xixing's movements, they all acquiesced and walked forward.

Suddenly, Shen Xixing stopped, shrugged his nose and asked, "Do you smell a foul smell?" ”

Shen Xixing fanned his nose, looking very disgusted.

Several people stopped when they heard this, and felt it carefully.

"It seems to have a smell, but it's too light, and it comes and goes." Han Yu nodded, but he didn't quite know.

"You have such a smart nose? Dog's nose! Kun Zhong quipped.

Shen Xixing rolled his eyes. "You're the dog's nose, I'm sensitive, okay, I'm naturally sensitive to taste, and the smell is so bad."

"Let's go check it out, maybe we'll find something, after all, I've just come in, and I don't know where to get in."

Han Yu also thought about it, this village is so weird, I don't know how many things are hidden in the dark, and it will be safer to know more.

"Yes, you lead the way." Gongzi Yue Xuan slapped the board, turned his head, and looked at Shen Xixing.

"Tsk~ I want my son to lead the way, the tone should be better, don't be so rude." Shen Xixing snorted as if dissatisfied, looking like an elder teaching a junior.

Gongzi Yuexuan glanced at him quietly, and then said, "Please lead the way." ”

"Eh, that's right, you have to understand etiquette, otherwise it will be difficult to find a daughter-in-law in the future, how to deal with your father-in-law."

Shen Xixing received the respect of Prince Yuexuan, and walked forward with satisfaction, not forgetting to lecture him as he walked.

Han Yu listened to it in the back, and he felt that this Shen Xixing was quite fat, he had been beaten so many times, and he dared to tease Brother Yue like this, he was afraid now, Yue Xuan Gongzi suddenly stopped, and put the sword on his neck in the next second.

Fortunately, along the way, Yuexuan Gongzi didn't do that.

They came to a stop at the side of a hill.

"Are you sure this is it?" Han Yu looked at the hillsides in front of him, there was no place to hide things, and there were no traces of blood.

"It's here, don't you smell a fishy smell, as if a lot of people have died."

Shen Xixing said with an affirmative face, and took out a handkerchief and covered his nose as he spoke.

Only then did a few people react, there was indeed a fishy smell, but for their frequent fights, this bloody smell was nothing, and they had smelled worse than this.

"There are some, but maybe it's caused by the blood of animals, after all, there are a lot of animals in this mountain." Han Yu didn't think it was strange.

In many places, they hunted animals, killed them, and then poured the entrails and blood on the mountains, leaving them to rot and stink.

"The old city lord said that there are only some old and weak women and children in this village, and there is not even a young and strong man, which old lady and old man would run up the mountain to catch animals, run so far, just for a pheasant, wild bird, with their bodies that are about to fall apart, can they hold up such a long mountain road?"

Yes, there is not even a young person in a village, it is impossible for those old people to come to this mountain, the mountain road is rugged, and there are many trees on this mountain, the sight is not good, and no one will come, how can there be a smell of blood here?

As soon as a few people heard Shen Xixing say, they also remembered this incident.

"Look for them separately and don't get too close to them in case someone sneaks up." Yuexuan Gongzi also thought of it, so he ordered them to look for it separately.

The four of them walked away in four directions, only a few hundred meters without moving, looking around for the source of the smell of blood.

Han Yu was flipping the grass around with the hilt of his sword to see if there were any holes or anything like that hidden in the weeds.

Suddenly, he felt the wind behind him, turned around violently, drew his sword with his hand, and confronted the sword of the comer.

"Dingβ€”"

Han Yu blocked it and looked at the person who came, who was holding an ordinary sword, obviously not wanting to reveal his identity and not using his own sword.

Suddenly, someone stabbed at him, Han Yu turned over, held the sword in his right hand, and swung it hard, but the person who came dodged him, and the sword qi fell to the tree, and the tree fell in response.

"Bang-" and several large trees around him fell.

The person who came reacted quickly, with a little right foot, teleported behind Han Yu, and stabbed him in the heart with a sword.

Han Yu flew upside down, slapped the person with one palm, and pulled out a sword flower, breaking the sword qi of the person.

The two of them went back and forth for hundreds of rounds, and the surrounding area was shattered by them, the grass on the ground was cut off, and both of them had some skin wounds on their bodies.

Seeing that they couldn't hurt him, they took out more than a dozen blasting talismans and threw them at Han Yu.

Han Yu was startled, and turned into a protective shield to block these spells.

Unexpectedly, someone took the opportunity to come to the top of his head, and as soon as Han Yu looked up, he saw someone stabbing at him with a sword, and the sword body was shiny, obviously smeared with poison.

It seems that this man wanted to kill him.

Han Yu reached out and took out a shield from the storage bag to block his attack.

"Bang-poof-" A loud voice sounded, accompanied by a sound of vomiting blood, listening to the sound, the injury was not light.
