"I—I don't know. ”

The middle-aged man's face was full of nervousness, and fine sweat oozed from his forehead, as if the four words "Old Lady Zhao" were like a taboo name that could not be mentioned.

"Yes, I remember that Old Lady Zhao lives in this village, right?" Although Mu Yu was a road idiot, Xiao Fei described the appearance and geographical location of the village clearly at that time, and he felt that he would not be wrong.

"I really don't know, I don't want to die!"

The middle-aged man seemed to remember something terrible, shuddered, and then ran away, even throwing away the hoe in his hand.

"Hey, you didn't even have a hoe! Mu Yu shouted strangely from behind.

But the middle-aged man ran fast, turned in behind a small courtyard and disappeared.

Mu Yu continued to walk towards the village, asked several villagers in a row, and found that their reactions were the same as the middle-aged man just now, they were frightened, and they didn't dare to say anything and avoided like a plague.

"These villagers are too timid, aren't they? Mu Yu must be that you are not handsome enough, they were scared away by you, let me ask them. Xiao Shuai jumped on Mu Yu's shoulder and said.

"Don't make a fuss, as soon as you open your mouth, they may look at you in surprise for a long time, so you better not speak. They are different from us, and it is normal to be a little scared when they encounter such strange things. ”

Mu Yu glanced at the villagers passing by, hesitating whether to come up with any money in exchange for news, but he suspected that these villagers did not understand the meaning of the spirit stone, and he did not have silver taels on him, which would be difficult.

He walked around the cottage to the edge of a rice paddy field, where an old man with a short beard was sitting on the ridge and sighing.

"Uncle, why are you sighing?Is the harvest bad?" Mu Yu sat down beside the old man, he planned to put on a set of clothes first, and he would be familiar with his face, otherwise he would be scared away again when he asked Old Lady Zhao a question.

The short-bearded old man was called Old Xu Tou, and he looked worried, he looked up at Mu Yu, and said, "The young man is very fresh, where did he come from?"

"Passing by here in the countryside, why did I sigh when I saw the old man just now?" Mu Yu showed a harmless smile on his face.

Old Xu Tou sighed again and said: "The growth of crops this year is not optimistic, I don't know where a new type of pest comes from, I can't kill it, I can only watch them spoil the crops." ”

Mu Yu glanced at the rice, and he found some pests smaller than mosquitoes lying on the rice ears, and many rice ears had been gnawed away.

"It's a dead leaf demon mosquito, this kind of thing is really annoying, it eats everything. Xiao Shuai recognized the pests on the rice at a glance.

"Eat everything, isn't that you?" said Ryuto with a smile.

"But I'm handsome. ”

The Dead Leaf Demon Mosquito is a first-order demon beast, very small, and likes to live in groups. The best way to deal with them is to use the scent of wormgrass flowers to expel them. Doing this kind of thing, Mu Yu couldn't be better.

"Uncle, I have a way to get rid of these pests. Mu Yu said confidently.

"Young man, don't entertain the old man, we've tried everything, you don't seem to be a farmer at a young age, how can you understand these things?"

Mu Yu didn't speak, and with a wipe of his hand, a worm flower had already appeared in his hand. He smiled and planted the worm grass flower in the field, and then flicked his hand slightly, and the fragrance of the worm heart flower suddenly emanated.

"Buzz!"

All of them suddenly flew up from the rice in a panic and fled in all directions, avoiding the smell of worm grass flowers. It's just that in a moment, all the dead leaf demon mosquitoes are all running clean.

With a flick of Mu Yu's hand, all the gnawed rice came back to life. He clapped his hands up and down, thinking to himself that he was really a good friend of the farmer's uncle, who could not only get rid of pests, but also help the crops, where could he find such an all-round good young man!

"This—" Old Xu's mouth opened wide in shock.

"Uncle, this plant is called Worm Heart Flower, if it is planted here, there will be no dead leaf demon mosquitoes within a mile, so you must not pull it out. Mu Yu kindly reminded.

"How do you know, young man—oh my God! Thank you, young man. ”

Old Xu Tou was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly ran down to check the condition of his rice. The gnawed rice had already healed and even grown fuller.

"Even the ears of rice that have been eaten have grown back?How can this be?" Old Xu Tou touched the ears of rice in his hand in disbelief, unable to believe what he was seeing.

"Oh yes, I forgot to mention that the worm heart flower is the natural enemy of this pest, and can repair the plants that have been eaten by this pest. Mu Yu realized that he seemed to have gone too far, and hurriedly said nonsense.

"Oh my God, old man, I don't even know how to thank you. The sad face on Lao Xu's face disappeared, his tightly knit brows were also relaxed, and the whole person seemed to be a lot younger.

"Uncle, I have a question I want to ask, you tell me the details, and you should repay me. Mu Yu smiled.

"Don't worry, if the young man has any questions, just ask, I will not hide it. Old Xu Tou hurriedly promised.

"I heard that the old lady Zhao of your village came back from the dead at that time, what is going on?" Mu Yu asked.

"Whew-"

Lao Xu Tou gasped, his face immediately turned white with fright, and like everyone else, he ran away. But after running two steps, he stopped again, hesitated for a while, looked around, and came over and whispered, "Young man, why are you asking this? ”

"Why can't you talk nonsense?" asked Mu Yu puzzled.

Even if a person comes back from the dead and scares mortals, it won't be to the point where they can't even say it, right?

"In short, you can't say anything about it, and if you say it, you will die violently. Lao Xu Tou said with a pale face, "The big-mouthed Wang Erniang at the head of the village is a lesson from the past, a few days ago, a group of immortal masters heard about this incident and came to inquire about the situation, Wang Erniang's mouth quickly said it, who knew that she fell to the ground and died before she could say a few words, we were all cursed by Old Lady Zhao, once she told the situation of the day, she would be taken away by him." ”

Curse?

Mu Yu is really getting more and more curious, can he tell a ghost story and tell himself to death?

"Needless to say, can you write it?" Mu Yu said helplessly.

Old Xu Tou shook his head: "Old man, I can't read, where can I write!"

Mu Yu looked at Lao Xu Tou carefully, he found that Lao Xu Tou's body seemed to be wrapped with some strange aura that seemed to be there, and his heart suddenly froze, and he grabbed Lao Xu Tou's hand suddenly.

"Young man, what are you doing?" Old Xu Tou was frightened by Mu Yu's movements, where could he be a mortal to resist Mu Yu, and he couldn't break free if he wanted to struggle.

Mu Yu frowned slightly: "You have been given a vicious formation, strange!Who is so ruthless!"

Ki Yu didn't look closely at first, and it wasn't until now that he noticed something was wrong.

There was a trace of imperceptible gray gas flashing under Lao Xutou's eyes, this gray gas was very hidden, similar to the breath of the ghost gate, but it was not the breath of the ghost gate, it existed in the form of a formation, and under certain conditions, this gray gas was enough to kill Lao Xu Tou.

"What kind of formation, I don't understand the old man, I know that we are cursed, and we can only survive if we keep our mouths shut about this matter. Old Xu said in a panic.

"Uncle, do you feel that your chest is dull for a while, like a stone has been pressed, your breathing often becomes very irritable, your eyes are sometimes sore, and even when you look at things, you will find that you can't see other colors, only gray. Mu Yu asked seriously.

Old Xu Tou was completely stunned: "You, how do you know? I won't tell you, I think you are completely black and white now." ”

Mu Yu touched his chin, Lao Xu Tou was given a very insidious formation technique, the gray qi on his body is the formation pattern, this formation is called the Heartless Array, which is specially used on people, and can trigger the formation at a certain time to kill people.

The Heartless Array is recorded in the Array Pavilion of the Array Sect, which is listed as a forbidden technique, because it is too vicious, so it is generally not allowed to let the disciples in the sect practice this kind of formation technique casually.

Mu Yu has learned a lot of forbidden techniques, although he has never really implemented many forbidden techniques, but with his judgment, he will never admit mistakes.

"You do have a curse on you, and if you say something you shouldn't say, something will happen right away. Mu Yu let go of Old Xu's hand.

Old Xu Tou was already frightened and bloodless: "I just said that I can't say it, young man, you still don't ask about it, you removed the pests of rice for me, the old man is very grateful to you, but the old man really can't help you." ”

"Don't worry, old man, I have a way to get rid of this curse. Mu Yu said solemnly.

"You—Do you have a way to get rid of the curse?Are you an immortal master?" asked Lao Xu Tou in surprise.

Mu Yu nodded, and the chaotic yin and yang qi on his body instantly swept out, covering Lao Xu Tou's body, and Lao Xu Tou exclaimed in surprise, because Chaotic Yin and Yang brought him into the air.

Then the black and white patterns integrated into Lao Xu Tou's body, and with a slight shock, Lao Xu Tou only felt that the whole person seemed to have some shackles opened, and the stone pressed on his heart disappeared.

"W-That's it?"

Lao Xu slowly fell to the ground, touched his chest, and rubbed his eyes, and found that the soreness in his eyes had disappeared, and he was immediately overjoyed, and he was about to kowtow to thank him as soon as he bent his body, but Mu Yu hurriedly helped him up.

"You can tell me about the situation now, don't worry, it's okay to say it this time, I promise. Mu Yu said.

Old Xu Tou hesitated for a long time, although the strangeness that had plagued him in recent days had disappeared, but he still believed it, after all, this kind of thing is difficult to say accurately.

But he glanced at the rice he had planted, touched his chest again, and remembered that he had been taken into the air just now, and he didn't have to think about it to know that Mu Yu was a powerful immortal master, so he nodded.

"Forget it, the old man is out of the way, just tell you. Old man Zhao is a very old person in our village, after he died, according to the rules, our whole village had to go to the funeral, and our whole village sent Old Man Zhao's coffin to the mass burial valley and pushed it down.

Originally, we were all going to return, but who would have thought that Old Man Zhao's coffin suddenly rose from the bottom of the valley, and then the coffin opened automatically, and he actually stood up from the coffin, which immediately frightened us! Everyone thought that he would not be blind to death, because he had a group of unfilial descendants, but Old Man Zhao gushed out a terrible black gas, and directly killed his three sons and all the descendants of the Zhao family. It's terrible, all of a sudden, those people are gone!"

Mu Yu frowned, according to Lao Xu Tou's description, the way these people died was very similar to the practices of the ghost sect people, but there was no breath left by the ghost gate people on the mass burial valley, and it seemed that it had nothing to do with the ghost gate people.

"Did Old Lady Zhao say anything else?" Mu Yu continued to ask.

Old Xu Tou slowed down and continued: "After Old Man Zhao killed his descendants, he laughed loudly, the laughter was very terrifying, like grinding his teeth, and he said to us next, now the seal-"

Old Xu Tou suddenly covered his mouth suddenly, and at the same time, his eyes widened, looking terrified, the green tendons on his face protruded, and his whole body was straight!

Mu Yu chuckled in his heart, what was going on? Could it be that the Heartless Array had not been completely lifted?
