Chapter 34: Who Am I?
A hint of surprise flashed in Mei Xiao's eyes, since he was a child, no matter how powerful the poison was, it had no effect on him, and he had long been accustomed to it, but no one had ever been able to see where his characteristic of not being poisoned came from. This time, feeding the blood to Su Ting and Yang Xian was also in the mentality of giving it a try, and he didn't have much hope.
The old man with the bamboo cane revealed the secret of Mei Xiao's blood, and when he saw Mei Xiao's reaction, he was not in a hurry to continue, "It's normal that you don't know, but I shouldn't tell you." ”
Mei Xiao wanted to ask something, but she stopped talking, "Thank you, uncle." ”
The old man with the bamboo cane looked at Mei Xiao and the others, "Where did you three come from?"
Mei Xiao said, "All three of us are from Pengcheng. ”
The old man with a bamboo cane frowned slightly, "All three?"
Mei Xiao saw that the old man with a bamboo cane suddenly frowned, and was a little puzzled, "Uncle, is there any problem?"
The old man with the bamboo cane put away his expression, and his voice was old and hoarse, "There is an empty bamboo house in the east of the village, which happens to be enough for the three of you to live, so you can rest there tonight." ”
After speaking, the old man with the bamboo cane called the children who were playing in the village to lead the way for them, and stood in front of the bamboo building and watched the three of them walk farther and farther, "People from the Buddha land, what are you doing in Pengcheng?"
As night approached, a hazy white mist shrouded the woods outside the village, and the hazy moonlight sprinkled down, and the surrounding scenery of the village was so unreal. Mei Xiao looked at the two sleeping on the couch, but she didn't feel a trace of sleepiness.
From the moment she heard the old man with the bamboo cane say those words, Mei Xiao's heart could not be calmed down anymore. He had a few questions, "Who am I, and where do I come from?"
Regarding his life experience, Mei Xiao heard Luo Yi talk about it when she was a child.
That year, the young Luo Yi went out of the mountains to practice, fighting swords and warriors everywhere in Shenzhou, and there were few opponents in the five countries, and the Jianghu people at that time gave Luo Yi a nickname - "Hades". At that time, Luo Yi was the most dazzling star in Wuyang, even more dazzling than the current Su Ting.
But once Luo Yi ran into a group of strange merchants, this group of merchants walked lightly, walked with the wind, and looked like people in the rivers and lakes. It stands to reason that it is not for nothing that Jianghu people are businessmen, no matter which sect they have to eat, and it is not a bad idea to do some business to support themselves.
But the strange thing is that there are a small number of benevolent monks in this group, and more are notorious scum of the rivers and lakes, and these monks are all beaten with blue noses and swollen faces, and they all have resentful expressions on their faces.
Luo Yi found this group of people, secretly followed them for a long time, and finally came to a mountainous area on the border of the Dian Kingdom, where the mountains are high and dense, and it is easy to hide, and it seems that those scum are going to kill those monks here.
The strange thing is that I don't know what those scum and the monks said, the monks who know martial arts didn't resist at all, and they just waited to be killed. The bloody scene stimulated Luo Yi's nerves, and he couldn't help but jump out and kill all the scum with the sword in his hand, but the monks were almost killed, leaving only an old monk who seemed to have a high status.
The old monk told Luo Yi that they were from the land of Buddha, and that there was a baby boy in one of the cars in the procession, and hoped that Luo Yi could raise him and let him live an ordinary life. The monk gave Luo Yi a strange sword, and after getting Luo Yi's promise, the monk also committed suicide.
The baby boy is the current Mei Xiao, and that sword is Mei Xiao's current saber.
This is what Luo Yi told him, judging from Luo Yi's words, Mei Xiao's identity must have some kind of relationship with the Buddha land, but what the specific relationship is, even Luo Yi doesn't know. In addition, the Buddha Land has very little contact with the outside world, and more than ten years have passed since the events of that year, so the truth of this matter may have long been annihilated in the dust of history.
Mei Xiao sighed, lay on the couch and tossed and turned, unable to sleep for a long time.
Gradually, Mei Xiao was also a little sleepy, and just as he was about to fall asleep, a very soft conversation came from outside the window, and a young male voice said, "What are we going to do?"
Another muddy male voice responded, "I heard the village chief say that there is a kid here whose blood can cure all the strange poisons in the world, as long as we get a little bit, our village will not die so many people in the selection of Dianying Valley, but the village chief just won't let us take his blood." If he doesn't let us, we'll take it ourselves......"
Hearing this, Mei Xiao's closed eyes suddenly opened, and she stood at the door of the bamboo house with her sword in her arms, quietly waiting for the two people outside to come in.
The villages of the Dian Kingdom are all settlements of people who are related to each other, and no one will worry about someone sneaking into the house in the middle of the night, so the villages of the Dian Kingdom do not have the habit of locking the door to sleep at night, and there is naturally no latch on the door, which is also convenient for the two people who are plotting against the enemy outside the Meixiao house.
The two gently pushed open the door, walked into the house, and almost bumped into Mei Xiao who was standing in front of the door, one young man was so frightened that he turned around and ran, and the other middle-aged man did not run, staying to confront Mei Xiao.
Mei Xiao looked at him coldly and asked, "You want my blood?"
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed with a rebellious light, and for a moment, Mei Xiao even felt a trace of Yi Yi's shadow in his eyes.
The middle-aged man said hatefully, "Of course I want your blood to detoxify." ”
Although Mei Xiao had heard the conversation between the middle-aged man and the young man before, she still asked, "What poison?"
The young man in front of the middle-aged man didn't mean to kill him, so he said, "We have only one super sect in the Dian Kingdom - Dian Eagle Valley, Dian Eagle Valley has to select disciples from the villages below every year, and the method of selecting disciples is to test the use of poison techniques, in the ring, both sides use poison techniques, as long as they are hit, they will be poisoned, and those who can go to the test are the elites of each village, and they all have their own unique poisons, and it is generally extremely difficult to find the antidote, it is good to find the antidote, and if you can't detoxify, you can only wait for death." ”
Mei Xiao thought of Yi Yi, and suddenly felt a little tingling in her heart, did you also enter the Dianying Valley like this?
Early the next morning, the village chief bamboo cane old man had just gotten up and came to the ancestral hall to prepare to clean, he suddenly found that there was a wine bowl on the altar of the ancestral hall, which was filled with blood, and a piece of paper was pressed under the bowl: "Help me take care of my brother, Mei Xiao is a gift." ”
