Lao Li Tou was stunned.

What did he see?

Ye Feng and Tang Da were taken aback, and hurriedly looked back, only to see a figure standing in the courtyard.

It was an old man, thin and thin, his face was as pale as dead ashes, and there was not even the slightest trace of blood like a living person, standing in the courtyard like a ghost, and his eyes looked straight at the two of them, and the eyes made people's hearts hairy.

Who's this?

Is it a human or a ghost?

Why was Lao Li so frightened that he fainted when he saw him?

Ye Feng was strange, and suddenly heard Tang Da beside him say, "It turned out to be you!"

It seems that Tang Da actually knows this old man?

The ghostly old man also spoke at this time, his voice was a little hoarse, revealing an ethereal taste: "It turns out that Tang Dashao still remembers old decay." ”

Tang Da nodded and said, "At the beginning of Huashan, if it weren't for the seniors who rescued me and Ye Gongzi from the secret cave with people, I'm afraid we would have been buried in Si for a long time." ”

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, wasn't it the people of the old Sun family in Guanzhong who rescued them from the Huashan Secret Cave in the first place?

He couldn't help but open his mouth and ask Tang Da, "Is he from the old Sun family?"

Tang Da nodded and said, "When Ye Gongzi was rescued from the secret cave, he was already highly poisoned and unconscious, so he didn't see his predecessors. ”

It turned out that this old man was the one who took the people of the old Sun family to rescue them from the Huashan Secret Cave.

Ye Feng couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

However, his heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly gasped!

This old man is from the old Sun family, and the people of the old Sun family who died in the inn happen to be an old man and four descendants, and now, it is the old man who lost the body.

Could it be that this is the one in front of you?

He is clearly dead, and the official has personally examined the body, and there is no suspicion, is it really a ghost in front of him?

Ye Feng glanced at the old Li Tou who was transported to the ground, and then looked at the old man in front of him, his face suddenly turned pale.

Tang Da beside him suddenly smiled at this time: "Don't worry, he is not a ghost." When have you ever heard that ghosts have shadows?"

Ye Feng looked at it when he heard this, and sure enough, behind the old man, under the moonlight, there was a black shadow.

So, he's not a ghost, he's a human?

The old man also smiled at this time, and the smile looked so ugly: "That's right, I'm not a ghost, I'm still a living person." ”

Ye Feng was still a little surprised: "You, aren't you already dead? Even the official work has examined your body, and there is no doubt about it?"

The old man took a step and slowly walked towards Ye Feng and them, and said: "The old Sun family in Guanzhong, who has robbed graves and dug graves for a living for generations, is doing things that damage yin morality, and if you walk too much at night, you will always meet ghosts, and naturally you will encounter some incredible, unexplainable strange things. ”

"Therefore, the ancestors of the old grandson family have passed down, and naturally there are some secret methods that are used to protect our descendants from invasion and keep them safe. For example, the old decay, since childhood, must eat a special kind of meat every day, which is used to gather the corpse qi in the body and reduce the breath of the living on the body. ”

Ye Feng asked with some curiosity: "What kind of meat?"

The old man glanced at him and said in a calm voice, "Trust me, you won't want to know. ”

Ye Feng didn't say anything on the surface, but he was a little unconvinced in his heart.

What kind of meat could it be? What kind of meat could it be? What kind of meat could it be, nothing more than rats, poisonous snakes, and so on, and so mysterious? If it can't be, will it be the corpse of a dead man......

Thinking of this, Ye Feng suddenly shivered, only to feel that his stomach was tightly clenched by a big hand, and it was constantly churning inside, and he was almost about to vomit immediately.

The old man glanced at Ye Feng with slanted eyes, and was not surprised by his reaction at all, but

Then he said: "In addition to this, I have been practicing a long-lost kung fu since I was a child, called Turtle Breath Gong. ”

A look of surprise appeared on Tang Da's face.

At this time, a legendary ancient miracle has long been lost, but I have heard of it in rumors, and I can't imagine that the old Sun family in this level will have such a miraculous feat.

Where did they get it from?

However, after a moment of thought, it was relieved, a family like the Lao Sun family who robbed tombs and dug graves, I don't know how many ancient tombs have been excavated, and it is not surprising that they can get such a long-lost thing.

The old man continued: "This miracle skill can slow down a person's breathing, slow down his heartbeat and pulse, and when he practices it, his breathing and pulse are so weak that he is almost unnoticed, and he looks like a dead person. ”

Ye Feng suddenly realized: "It is precisely this kind of miraculous skill that you used to deceive those people and make them think that you are dead?"

The old man nodded and said, "Not bad." At that time, the whole inn was full of customers, and there were so many people, but we were the first to be infected with the plague, and we had very little contact with the outside world, isn't it strange?"

"Among the five people, only Lao Yu did not catch the epidemic because he happened to go out for a while, and when he came back, he found that the other four were all sick. I believe that you must have noticed it now, at that time, under the investigation of the old decay, I remembered the relevant records about Gu poison that I had seen, and concluded at that time that this must be someone deliberately spreading Gu poison, and the purpose is likely to be from our old Sun family!"

"But the situation at that time, I was in the open and the enemy was in the dark, and we didn't even know where the opponent was, but we couldn't leave Xi'an City easily, because we had to wait for Ye Gongzi's arrival, so the old man had no choice but to come up with such a way to cheat death to hide the opponent's eyes and ears. ”

"Luckily, the old man's plan finally succeeded, and others thought that all five of us had died, so they sent our corpses to Yizhuang. ”

At this time, he walked in front of Lao Li Tou, who had fainted on the ground, suddenly leaned down, and reached out to point at several acupoints of Lao Li Tou, ensuring that he could fall asleep deeply after fainting and would not wake up soon.

Then he then said: "Although this turtle breath is wonderful, it can only last for a maximum of eight hours, and when the time comes, it will wake up naturally. When the old man woke up, he quietly hid around this Yizhuang, one is that Xi'an City is now closed, and it is not easy to get in, and the other is that the old man expected that if Ye Gongzi came to Xi'an City and found that the five of us were dead, he would definitely come to Yizhuang to check the body, so waiting for you here is the best way. ”

It's just ridiculous that the old man guarding Yizhuang thought that a thief had come to steal the old corpse, and he searched for it for a while. Just now he saw the old man standing in the courtyard, he remembered the appearance of the old decay's clothes, at first glance, he thought that the old decay was a terrible ghost reborn, a zombie turned into a corpse, and he was stunned. It's ridiculous!"

It turned out that everything was like this, Ye Feng understood everything at this time, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

He looked at the old Li on the ground, and couldn't help but feel pity for him.

A person like him, who lives in Yizhuang all the year round, and is accompanied by coffins and dead bodies, must be very bold.

Now he was actually frightened alive and fainted, which shows how frightened he was when he saw the dead old man Sun standing in front of him.

At this time, Tang Da next to him bowed to Old Man Sun and said, "I haven't asked the seniors for their names, how to call them?"

The old man smiled and said, "Lao Yu is the second oldest in the generation of the old Sun family, they all call me Sun Er, my real name has long been forgotten, you can call me that." ”

After Sun Lao Er finished speaking, he turned to ask: "Do you have any clues about this person who cast Gu poison in Xi'an City?"

Ye Feng talked about the content of the Five Poisons Sect of Miao Jiang and the sect master Lan Pozi mentioned by Tang Da on the road just now.

After hearing this, Sun Lao Er's brows were tightly locked

After thinking about it, he said: "The name of the Blue Po of the Five Poison Sects, the old man has heard of it for a long time, this person is definitely not simple, and the technique of poisoning is perfect, and it is extremely difficult to deal with. If it was really her stirring up the wind and rain in Xi'an City and mutilating people's lives, I am afraid that it would be very tricky. ”

Ye Feng thought to himself, in order to save the lives of those innocent people in the city, no matter how tricky it was, he had to find out this Lan Pozi. What's more, now with the full support of the unparalleled son of Providence Lou Ji, it is not difficult to find this old woman.

Tang Da respectfully said to Sun Laoer: "I don't know what you think about this senior?"

Sun Lao Er laughed, and said with a relaxed face: "Lao Yu is only here to help you go down to the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum this time, as for the investigation of the murderer, it has nothing to do with me." What's more, with Ye Gongzi, who is the smartest in the world, here, what problems can't be solved?"

There was a bit of sarcasm in his words, and Ye Feng naturally wouldn't fail to hear it.

However, this Sun Lao Er was the benefactor who rescued him from the secret cave of Huashan at the beginning, so he didn't care, and said to Sun Lao Er: "Don't dare to bother the seniors, I will thank Huashan for saving his life that day." ”

Sun Lao Er hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I rescued you in Huashan that day, not because I was kind and courageous, but because I was entrusted by others and returned a favor." Just like this time when I came to Xi'an City, I was just entrusted by someone, so I have nothing to thank. ”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh: "There are thousands of debts in the world, but only this human debt is the most difficult to pay off, and you don't dare to owe it!"

Ye Feng couldn't help but be curious in his heart, and asked, "I don't know who is the person who entrusted the seniors to save him?" If the juniors meet in the future, they can thank them in person." ”

Sun Lao Er shook his head and said, "Who this person is, Ye Gongzi will naturally know in the future, but it is inconvenient to mention it at this moment." Ye Gongzi still spent more time looking for clues at the moment, solved the plague in Xi'an City as soon as possible, and went to the Mausoleum of Emperor Qin as soon as possible. ”

Seeing that he refused to explain, Ye Feng couldn't continue to ask for a while, so he could only give up.

At this time, Tang Da asked: "I don't know what the seniors plan to do in the future? Why don't you return to Xi'an City with us, or ask for advice nearby." ”

Sun Lao Er waved his hand and said: "No need, Lao Yu is just a native man, I'm afraid that Lao Yu won't be able to help with your affairs, or you will hide here and around, and wait until you solve the problems in the city, and then come here to find me." ”

After a pause, he seemed to be a little uneasy, and he admonished again: "This Lan Pozi has never heard of her name, no one has seen her true face, tall, short, fat and thin, how old she is, no one knows." You have to be very careful with her, and you must not be careless. ”

Ye Feng and Tang Da both nodded yes.

After Sun Lao Er finished speaking, he waved his hand to unlock the acupoint of Lao Li Tou, who had fainted on the ground, and his body moved, swept out, and disappeared into the vast night.

Ye Feng looked at his figure, and couldn't help but sigh that this senior master really acted very differently, but he insisted on not wanting to meddle in Lan Pozi's affairs, and it seemed that he had some concerns.

Just thinking about it, the old Li Tou, who had been fainting on the ground, woke up leisurely at this time.

As soon as he woke up, he jumped up, pointed to the yard, and exclaimed, "Ghost, ghost!"

Tang Da leaned over and picked up the candle that Lao Li Tou had fallen to the ground and extinguished, lit it again, and said, "Where the hell is there? I'm afraid you're dazzled, right? It's only the three of us here." ”

Lao Li Tou rubbed his eyes, looked at the yard repeatedly, and there was indeed no ghost shadow, and he couldn't help but start to wonder, could it be that he had drunk too much wine and was dazzled and hallucinated?

Ye Feng looked at Lao Li and couldn't help but shake his head.

People are always like this, they are easily influenced by the outside world, even if they see things with their own eyes, when they are said by others, they will be suspicious.

And the truth is often in the hands of a few.
