Into the World Chapter 26 Mountains and Rivers Have Spirits, Shi Xian Asks (6)
Xiaochen and Wang Changlai moved much slower, and they were all wary of Murong Haoyue's sudden sneak attack along the way, but fortunately, the bamboo forest was very quiet, and there was no danger.
Through the dense bamboo forest, a scene of a mountain village with smoke appeared in front of Xiaochen and Wang Changlai, under the flow of the stream, the villagers on both sides of the river are busy at this time, or peasant women are doing laundry, or children playing, it seems to be peaceful in the past, but the houses in the village seem to be a little broken, and many young and strong laborers are shouting to repair the houses at this time.
"The village... The village is alive! Wang Changlai was also a little shocked at this time, but he quickly calmed down.
Xiao Chen was thinking: "It seems that the guess is correct, it is in the phantom array, and the eye of the last phantom array is on the bluestone, so it is teleported out as soon as it is touched, and this is still a chain of phantom arrays." ”
"Brother Wang, don't you think that the village in front of you has changed a lot, it doesn't look like it has become younger." Xiaochen gathered the thoughts in his eyes and said calmly.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Wang Changlai also reacted at this time, and immediately responded: "Then Brother Xiao means that we came to the village before it was deserted? Are we back in time? ”
Xiao Chen nodded lightly, and then walked towards the village, even if the phantom array, but also not to underestimate the illusion characters in it, in the phantom array, if they think that they are human, it is fine, if they deliberately wake them up, there will be an unpredictable situation.
This is also the basic survival common sense in the phantom array, and the way to crack the phantom array is to find the array eye, the last phantom array is on the bluestone, and the array eye of the phantom array in front of you doesn't know where it is.
Immediately, Xiaochen's thoughts turned: "Murong Haoyue should know, now you should pay attention to the surroundings first, and then look for her traces." ”
"Brother Wang, your strength is here!" Xiao Chen looked at the woman washing clothes in the river in front of him, and said to Wang Chang.
"I... What are your strengths?" Wang Changlai was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "Brother Xiao, is this asking me to find out the news?" ”
"Yes!"
"Why didn't Brother Xiao go by himself!" Wang Changlai was obviously resistant.
"I just saved Brother Wang's life." Xiaochen replied quite calmly, I don't know if the illusionary creatures in front of him are good or bad, and it is natural for others to let others test them.
The corners of Wang Changlai's mouth twitched, and then his words were choked, he glanced at Xiaochen and walked towards the village woman.
As soon as the paper fan in his hand opened, Wang Changlai asked with his standard smile, "Dare to ask where this is?" My friend and I accidentally got lost in the bamboo forest. ”
The peasant woman looked at Wang Changlai with sincere fear, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Immortal Master, this place is called Xiaozhu Village, and the folk woman is just a woman from an ordinary family. ”
Wang Changlai immediately asked, "Then what strange things happened in this Xiaozhu Village before?" ”
The moment Wang Changlai asked, Xiao Chen felt creepy, in this kind of serial fantasy realm, you can't ask about the future or the things before, you can only ask about the present, otherwise the life in the fantasy realm will question its own existence, and unpredictable things will happen, Xiao Chen thought he knew, so he didn't remind him.
Immediately, Xiaochen hurriedly shouted: "Brother Wang, come back quickly!" ”
"Huh?" Wang Changlai looked at Xiaochen who asked him to go back with some doubts, but he still walked back obediently, muttering, "I still have many questions to ask?" ”
And the peasant woman behind Wang Changlai was also stunned at this time, and then began to mumble to herself, constantly saying, "What happened before? What really happened before? ”
Wang Changlai also noticed this anomaly, and instantly felt that the ghost was in danger, and hurriedly hid behind Xiaochen.
Xiaochen glanced at the peasant woman, and saw that the other party was just questioning, and did not immediately turn into a nightmare, and also put down the long sword in his hand.
"Fortunately, it's not a big problem, if it turns into a nightmare, it will be troublesome..."
Xiaochen also rubbed his eyebrows, and then quickly left here and walked towards the center of the village, Wang Changlai followed step by step, confused, he just asked a word, how could it be like this.
"Brother Wang, remember, in this space, don't ask about the past and the future, only the present!" Xiaochen said in a deep voice.
Although Wang Changlai was a little unclear, he still responded and said: "Okay, okay, Brother Xiao, Wang remembers." ”
Rounding the small col, I saw the huge bluestone again, and at this time the bluestone seemed to have many cracks on its body, as if it had been cracked. The crack continued to shrink, absorbing the breath of the incense in front of him, and then slowly healed.
Xiao Chen looked carefully at the crack, there was no purple fire at this time, so it was said that the purple fire appeared in the following time.
Wang Changlai also said curiously: "Brother Xiao, that big bluestone feels close and auspicious at present. ”
"Be cautious in your words and deeds, Brother Wang, remember what I just said, and don't mention those two things." Xiao Chen repeated it quite seriously, and did not look away until Wang Changlai nodded.
In front of the bluestone, there is now a group of people kneeling down, and the dingzhong is also full of incense, and in the continuous prayer of those people, you can detect their panic and uneasiness.
An old man led by him was wearing sackcloth and a white scarf at this time, kneeling on the ground and shouting: "Shixian is above, and now where should I go in Xiaozhu Village!" ”
With the sound of kowtowing one after another, Shi Ling did not give any response.
After a period of time, the village chief Zhu got up again, gathered everyone to leave, and met the two Xiaochen head-on, immediately stopped, and after realizing that the two people in front of him were immortal cultivators, the old man prostrated down again and said: "The immortal master is above, I don't know what is the important thing about the immortal master's arrival this time?" ”
Even more than a hundred people behind him immediately knelt down, and kept chanting the immortal master to forgive his sins.
Xiaochen and Wang Changlai glanced at each other, the people of this village seemed to be very afraid of the monks who came, and knelt down motionless, and since entering the village, the two of them had not seen a single monk, all mortals.
This place is very wrong, because since the monks began to become popular in cultivating their own paths, some basic cultivation methods have gradually flowed out, if mortals can practice and try to get free, and if they are lucky, they can step into the path of cultivating immortals, and no matter how bad a hundred or ten people are, there will be a few cultivation of one or two layers of condensation.
And the village is as if it were isolated from the rest of the world.
This time, Wang Changlai stopped talking, his eyes looked at Xiao Chen, seeing this, Xiao Chen stepped forward and said: "Old man, you get up first, the two of us just strayed into this place, and there is no malice." ”
Takeshige was embarrassed to get up after hearing this, and his eyes were so humble that he didn't even dare to raise his head.
"But passing by here, it can be regarded as fate, old man, I just saw you prostrate and bow, there should be some prayers, it is better to wait with me." Xiaochen thought for a moment and said.
Zhuzhong was quite entangled, but he didn't dare to go against the meaning of the immortal master, and said: "The immortal master is above, at present, Xiaozhu Village has suffered heavy casualties, and we are gathered to discuss what to do in the future, I wonder if the immortal master has any high opinions?" ”
"From now on?"
Xiao Chen's eyes froze after hearing Takezhong's words, and he asked about this trap in the future, whether he could follow his words.
Immediately, Xiao Chen replied: "The old man has just seen a woman wearing a black gauze and holding a long sword, which is the companion of the two of us, who is scattered here. ”
Takezhong was a little confused by Xiaochen's words, and after a moment of silence, he still replied: "Tell the immortal master, I didn't see it." ”
"The old man is obviously a highly respected person in the village, and the information he gave is that the villagers have suffered heavy casualties, as for why there are heavy casualties, it must not be possible to ask directly, but it can also be speculated, looking at the situation of the village and the appearance of Qingshi, the village has obviously suffered from a strong enemy invasion, if it is so deduced, then in the end the villagers left because Qingshi can no longer protect the villagers?" Xiaochen lowered his head and pondered.
Wang Changlai on the side found something out, and hurriedly pulled Xiaochen's sleeve, he didn't dare to say a word in public now.
After Xiaochen glanced at him, the two left quickly.
Hiding behind a rock, after confirming that it was safe, Wang Changlai spoke: "Brother Xiao, have you seen that Ding?" ”
Xiaochen nodded, and incense lingered on the ding.
Speaking of this, Wang Changlai also said with a little horror: "The Ding is full of blood, Brother Xiao, those incense are as if they are inserted in a pool of blood, and the smell of incense covers up the smell of blood." ”
"What!"
Hearing this, Xiaochen's complexion also changed, blood is a sacrificial item, but it is originally an evil thing, and it must not be directly put into the incense sacrifice, and most of the sacrificial activities are only demonic and advocate blood sacrifices.
"So these villagers deliberately poured blood into the incense ding!"
Frowning and thinking for a long time, Xiao Chen said, "What kind of blood do you think it is?" Or what do you think is the significance of the villagers' move? ”
Wang Changlai shook his head, he just didn't know to tell Xiaochen, if he knew, he wouldn't have said it, and after entering this place, he felt quite weird.
Murong Haoyue's figure shrank in a shadow, looking at Xiaochen and Wang Changlai condescendingly, and muttered in his mouth: "It's fast, it should be soon!" ”
On the other side, Commander Zhang was running for his life, and behind him were dozens of mortals, their faces were frightened at this time, everyone was hanging colors, and they were already cornered.
"Commander Zhang, save me!" A mortal behind him shouted, he looked at the purple flame bluestone that was getting closer and closer behind him, his eyes became more and more frightened, and he tried to escape with his hands and feet.
Commander Zhang just glanced back, and then turned back coldly, at present, he himself is running for his life, and he still wants him to save people? These mortals are just using them as stepping stones at this time.
Then Commander Zhang looked at the col in front of him, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, from the mouth of that despicable Murong Haoyue, it can be known that she can live after this col, yes, it should be like this, otherwise she would not have deliberately said such a sentence.
Commander Zhang looked at the people behind him who were engulfed in flames, and felt his scalp tingle, and hurriedly rushed away.
"It's near! It's near! The col seemed to be able to leap over in one step, and Commander Zhang's body was also a little relaxed at this time, and he finally glanced behind him.
"Where's the monster?" Just as Commander Zhang turned his head suspiciously, the purple flame bluestone in front of him was smashed down with a punch.
"No !!"
