Chapter 93: The monster is unknown
Grandma saw a well-behaved little girl outside through the crack in the door, so she opened the door.
It's so late, and it's not safe for the little girl to be outside. Grandma completely forgot that she was here to kill the demon, and said gently, "Come in." ”
Jin Chao smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandma." ”
Behind the door is a small courtyard, planted with some flowers and plants, and there are a few dead leaves floating on the surface of the stone tank next to it, which is not covered by a lid, and it should not be a drinking water tank.
On the four bluestone steps, there is a bedroom for living, two children who look like six or seven years old, holding the door, timidly looking at Jinchao and Huaqi.
"Grandma, are there only three of you in your family?" Hua Qi asked after looking around.
In this small courtyard, he found no trace of adult men living in it, and it would be too unsafe if it was just a grandmother and grandchildren. And what about their livelihoods?
The house was a little dark, and Grandma lit a new oil lamp, and then said slowly: "I have a son who has set up a stall in the county to sell some small things, and every month he will ask someone to bring back the things he needs for life." ”
It wasn't until later that the demon came into trouble, and it was an adult man who died, and she was worried about her son's safety, so she specially instructed him not to come back.
Hua Qi pulled out a bench for Grandma to sit on, and sat on the other side.
Jin Chao took out the map and spread it out on the table, "Grandma, do you know who sent the distress letter?" How long has it been going on in your village? ”
Hua Qi asked additionally, "Has anyone seen what a monster looks like?" ”
Grandma's eyes were not very good, she held the oil lamp and looked at it carefully for a while, and said, "This place is indeed our stone village. ”
Her words were incompatible, Hua Qi whispered to Jinchao, "I see that this grandma is not very clear-headed, and there are only two small ones left in the family, so it is better to ask another one." ”
Hua Qi felt that he was old, his eyes were not good, and his ears were not good, so he was not worried about being heard, and when he found that two pairs of eyes fell on him, he immediately laughed.
Forget about the little ears and eyes.
"It's been more than half a year since someone first went missing."
Grandma's old voice sounded, and Hua Qi immediately burst out in surprise, "It's been more than half a year? Then why did you send a letter to Xianmen for help now? ”
Jin Zhao tugged at his sleeve and signaled him to lower his voice, and there was a sense of helplessness in Grandma's cloudy eyes, "At first, the people in the village only thought that they had encountered wild beasts on the mountain. ”
"It's not uncommon for the people of our stone village to make a living from hunting."
"And then?" Hua Qi asked.
Grandma sighed, "Later, people disappeared one after another, and everyone noticed the abnormality and gradually stopped going up the mountain, but those people, in their own homes, disappeared the next day." ”
"When did this start?" Today suddenly sounded, and the little face was brightly illuminated by the candlelight.
Grandma recalled, "It was about the next month after the first person went missing. ”
"Why didn't you send a message asking for help before?" Huaqi still cares about this issue.
The little boy interjected, "Yes, we sent a lot of letters, but no one came." ”
"Your county commander has cultivated immortals in Xianshan for a few years, why don't you ask him for help?" Today's clear and pure voice made Hua Qi slightly stunned, and he looked at the little boy.
The little boy was visibly dazed, and turned his head to look at his grandmother.
"Nobody made it out of here." Grandma said, "The people who went to deliver the letter are also missing. ”
According to Grandma, where did the distress letter they received come from? Both Jinchao and Huaqi have thought of this, and Jinchao is still okay, Huaqi's mind is really a mess.
No wonder before leaving, the younger sister said that the demon trouble in Shicun is not so simple.
Quack Quack –
The sound of toads came from outside the door, especially loud in the night.
Soon, there was a hurried knock on the door, "Grandma Zong, I heard that an immortal master has come to our stone village, is it true?" ”
Grandma heard the voice of Aunt Zhou next door, and was about to get up, when Jin Chao by the door said, "I'll go open the door." ”
Aunt Zhou saw that it was a little girl who opened the door, and her eyes were mixed with a hint of scrutiny, I didn't hear that Grandma Zong's family still had such a beautiful relative, and in this special period, what did she do in Shicun?
But these are not the point, Aunt Zhou crossed the face of Jinchao, saw Grandma Zong who was sitting, and squeezed in from the door, "Grandma Zong, where is the immortal master who came to eliminate the demon?" I would like to invite the Immortal Master to my house to sit ......"
Her eyelids jumped hard today, and she always felt that something big was going to happen, and if there was an immortal master in charge, her heart would be steady.
The little girl stretched out a finger and pointed out the door, "The sister who just opened the door is the immortal master." ”
"Huh?" Aunt Zhou was stunned, "Xiaohua, can't you coax your Aunt Zhou, that little girl looks not as big as my family, with fine skin and tender meat, can she get rid of monsters?" ”
She didn't believe it in her heart, it must be Xiaohua, the girl, who lied and refused to let the fairy master go to her house.
Hua Qi slandered, is his sense of existence so low? When the woman came in, she didn't look this way.
"My sister didn't lie, immortals are immortal!" As he spoke, he cast a look at Hua Qi seeking recognition.
Hua Qi tugged at the corners of his mouth, in fact, people who cultivate immortals also have longevity, but they are hundreds of years longer than ordinary people, and he doesn't know if there are any who are truly immortal.
Aunt Zhou saw that there was still a person sitting in the shadows, and a smile immediately appeared on her face, "This is the immortal master who came to eliminate demons, right?" Don't know what to call it? ”
"Huaqi."
Mrs. Zhou moved the bench and sat over, "Master Huaxian, the monsters in our stone village are really hateful, you must help us get rid of the monsters and return us to peace!" ”
Hua Qi withdrew his hand and said, "This is natural, my junior sister and I came to Shicun to remove monsters for you." ”
"But what exactly does this monster look like, where is the lair, do you have any clues?"
The smile on Aunt Zhou's face faded, "We are all ordinary people, it's too late to hide when we see a monster, where do we dare to look at the appearance of a monster." ”
She added, "But this monster must be a banshee!" ”
"Why?" Hearing that Aunt Zhou was so sure, Hua Qi thought she knew something, and then asked.
Mrs. Zhou's eyebrows were full of disgust, and her voice became cold, "The missing people are all young and strong men, doesn't this mean anything?" Banshees are used to sucking men's yang energy. ”
"It's a vixen!" A voice suddenly sounded by the door, which frightened Aunt Zhou and almost fell off the chair.
As soon as she turned her head, she saw that it was her own cuiya, her eyebrows and eyes were fierce, and she was about to reprimand her, remembering that there was still an immortal master, she accepted the scolding, and only said in a low voice: "Go back and clean you up!" ”
"It's Cuiya, come in and sit." Grandma Zong greeted her kindly.
Cui Ya shook her head, "No, I want to be with Sister Immortal, she can protect me." ”
She saw it, and as soon as the hand of the immortal sister was drawn in the air, there was a golden light flashing, and it did not enter the wooden door.
This must be the Immortal Law!
