As he walked out of the fog, the old man pointed ahead and said a village ahead.

What caught Zhang Yuan's eye was a smoky, poetic and picturesque scene of a water town.

Dozens of quaint and elegant cabins are scattered and scattered, with white powder walls, black tile houses, and wooden houses are all small courtyard specifications, and there are many trees widely distributed in the courtyard, but there are only two types of peach trees and apricot trees, which are uneven, set off each other, and there are clusters of flowers competing for beauty, adding a touch of vitality to a light scene.

There is also a huge lotus pond in front of the village, full of green and lotus flowers, obviously it is in the twilight autumn season, but the lotus pond seems to be still in the middle of summer, the wisps of breeze blow, swaying between the lazy state.

Walking along the staggered paths, chickens and dogs smell each other, and along the way are people farming and farming, each face is full of cheerful expressions, a peaceful and prosperous scene.

Zhang Yuan asked Chen Mo in a heartfelt voice, "Didn't you say that this place is a ghost?"

Chen Mo pursed his lips and replied: "How do I know what's going on, I've also heard about it, and I know everything anywhere, but ah, I think you better put me down first, otherwise there may be a lot of trouble at that time?" Don't worry, I won't escape." ”

Zhang Yuanyi hesitated, and clicked a few times between several acupuncture points on Chen Mo's body with his virtual fingers, completely sealing Chen Mo's dantian, and said: "Although the acupoints I gave you cannot be unlocked unless you rely on spiritual power, I advise you not to try it easily, otherwise I can't help it if you die violently with qi and blood." ”

Chen Mo clenched his fists and tried to urge some spiritual power, but found that he couldn't exert his strength at all, shrugged his shoulders, it didn't matter.

Zhang Yuanyi continued: "There is one more thing, I ask you not to leave my sphere of influence, otherwise I will abolish your leg!"

Chen Mo glanced at Zhang Yuan and yawned casually, "I know." ”

Along the way, I was tied up the mountain and down the mountain, so don't be too tormented, although there is no cultivation for the time being, but after all, I have regained my free body, and I am comfortable.

After walking not far, an old woman dressed very strangely walked in front of her, and said with a smile: "Lao Wang is back." ”

The old man nodded and replied with a smile: "Yes, I was lucky to meet a warm-hearted young man today, and with his help, I was able to come back early." ”

The old lady looked at Zhang Yuanyi, who was carrying a bundle of firewood in her hand, and smiled even more happily, "Young people are indeed a talent!"

Zhang Yuan replied shyly: "It should be, it should be." ”

The old man waved his hand to the old lady and said, "Let's not talk about it yet, my son is back today, I have to hurry back and prepare some meals." Everyone is welcome to come and celebrate together!"

The old lady smiled like a face, "It must be!"

The old man's house is much smaller than that of ordinary villagers, both in terms of house specifications and courtyard size, which is not a big deal.

However, considering that the house is only inhabited by the elderly all year round, everything seems reasonable.

Zhang Yuanyi entered the courtyard under the leadership of the old man, and looked around, compared to the peach and apricot trees that were planted all over the courtyard of other people, there were only a few in the old man's courtyard, which seemed much more deserted.

The old man took the firewood in Zhang Yuan's hand, walked slowly to the back room, and said, "The two of you will find a place to rest first, and I will put the firewood away and then come to entertain the two of you, soon." ”

Zhang Yuanyi tied the white horse to a peach tree at random and walked into the back room with Chen Mo.

Although the old man's house is not large, the sparrow is small and has all kinds of organs. All kinds of furniture are readily available, and there is a dazzling array of them.

Chen Mo walked around the room at will, his fingers lightly swiped over some objects, and said softly: "Put the bottle in the east and the mirror in the west, what is the point at this time?"

In the general room decoration, the bottle mirror has always been placed together, and unless the women's boudoir is not easily placed on the sides, it is indeed a bit strange to place the bottle mirror like this.

Zhang Yuanyi said: "The east bottle and the west mirror, this is the construction of the Hui school, pray for a lifetime of peace." ”

He has always liked to read, and for this kind of cultural style and the like, he wrote down a lot of things as early as when Zhang Daoling was still there, and now he can apply what he has learned, and he can't get rid of his usual accumulation.

Chen Mo couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said with a smile: "I see." ”

Happily, according to this information, they have grasped some of the information in this ghost, at least they can have a deeper understanding of the year.

No wonder I saw that old woman dressed very strangely just now, it turned out that she was no longer from a dynasty.

At this time, the old man came in a hurry, he patted the dust on his clothes, quickly got a little tea from the table, handed it to Zhang Yuan and the two, and said with a smile: "Today my eldest son is going home, if the two of you don't hurry up, stay and celebrate together." Don't look at me, the house here is not big, but there are still more than one room, which can accommodate two people. ”

Zhang Yuan glanced at Chen Mo, nodded with a smile, and said, "If the old man doesn't mind, then the two of us will be disturbed a lot." ”

The old man was full of wrinkles and overflowed with a warm smile, "Where, you have helped me so much, let alone staying for one night, it doesn't matter if you stay for a few more days!"

The old man looked at the sky outside the house, and said with a panicked expression: "Oh, I was so busy chatting that I forgot to prepare dinner, and when the children are about to come back, I won't talk about it yet, I'm going to take care of things in the kitchen." ”

He was so happy, and no matter what Zhang Yuanyi's reply was, his skinny old body suddenly burst out with infinite momentum and rushed into the kitchen.

Chen Mo walked to Zhang Yuanyi's side at this time, looked at the old man's distant back, and said curiously: "Most of this place is inseparable from this lotus flower domain, just such a small place, a child who fought on the battlefield comes back, don't you think this matter is very strange?"

This kind of thing, there is no need for Chen Mo to say, Zhang Yuanyi also understands, the ground connection range of the Lotus Flower Domain, Zhang Yuanyi's divine sense is roughly cleaned, and it is only as big as a few miles away, no one can go out, where can a person come back from?

If you want to figure out the boundaries of this territory, then this child who is said to be "going home" soon is their breakthrough point this time.

Just as Zhang Yuan and the two were thinking, a large group of aunts and uncles came from outside the door, wearing aprons around their waists, and entered the house one after another.

"Oh, old Wang, how can this kind of kitchen thing be without us old neighbors?"

"That's right, Lao Wang, your eldest son is a big hero in our village, how can this kind of preparation for a feast be without us?"

"I just caught a wild boar in the forest this morning, it's fresh, come and stew this big pig's trotter for us!"

"This is good! The lotus pond lotus seed stew in the village is the most fragrant, I'll pick some of it. ”

......

For a while, the whole room was full of people and busy.

Chen Mo rolled up his sleeves and was about to go to help, Zhang Yuan kicked Chen Mo one by one, glanced at him and said, "Are you stupid, take advantage of this opportunity, we can just go to investigate the special features of this place." ”

Chen Mo reluctantly followed Zhang Yuanyi and quietly left the house.

Unconsciously, the two came to the lotus pond in the village, looked around, looked carefully, and Zhang Yuanyi asked, "Have you found anything?"

Chen Mo looked up, pointed to the lotus pond and said: "This village is not a little strange, most of the ordinary villages are built at random, but this village is obviously built by a special specification pattern, and it is very likely that there is a large formation under it." ”

Zhang Yuanyi closed his eyes, carefully felt the fluctuations of the spiritual power here, and after a long time, he suddenly opened his eyes!

Dry sky, kundi. Xunfeng, thunder, Kanshui, Lihuo, Genshan, Duze. These eight trigrams and the five elements of Tianqian and Zedui correspond to the gold in the five elements, the water barrier represents the water in the five elements, the fire li represents the fire in the five elements, the mountain root and the earth kun represent the earth in the five elements, and the wind and thunder represent the wood in the five elements.

In the gossip of the day after tomorrow, Li represents the north, Kan represents the south, Dui represents the east, Zhen represents the west, Kun represents the northeast, Qian represents the southeast, Gen represents the southwest, and Xun represents the northwest. Among the five elements, wood represents the east, fire represents the south, earth represents the middle, gold represents the west, and water represents the north.

There are five elements of gossip here, heaven and earth, wind, thunder, water, volcano, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, but there is chaos above the direction, and there is no order at all.

The directions of the gossip and the five elements are arbitrarily reversed, chaotic, and the more you investigate carefully, you will find that they are actually changing, running non-stop, and there is a deeper feeling that the speed of operation is still accelerating, becoming more and more difficult to fathom.

Zhang Yuanyi squinted his eyes and said: "I know why people who come in here can't get out, the five elements gossip can change positions at will, the door of life and death are unpredictable, this place is a labyrinth formation." ”

Chen Mo hugged the back of his head with both hands, hung up as if he had nothing to do with himself, and asked with a smile: "Then you say, where did all those guys who strayed into the depths of the lotus flower go?"

Zhang Yuanyi shook his head and fell into deep thought, "This is also a doubt. ”

The village full of peach apricots, the terrain with the disordered gossip of the five elements, the mysterious returnee from the battlefield, an old man who can get out of the lotus flower domain with his consciousness before his death, and the disappeared entrant, all this is too strange.

I don't know how many unknowns are waiting for Zhang Yuanyi to solve his puzzles, and more importantly, maybe he will never be able to escape again?

Zhang Yuanyi hesitated in his heart, at this moment, with his keen perception, he could take Chen Mo out of here, but that meant giving up the opportunity to accompany him, he didn't want to!

Just when Zhang Yuanyi was still hesitating, Chen Mo elbowed Zhang Yuanyi's waist ribs, pointed ahead and said, "Look there, someone is back." ”

At this moment, the dusk is approaching, the sun is thin, and the burning clouds on the far horizon are rendered layer by layer, thick as a rich sword qi, shining in all directions, and a dim figure with a burly figure holding a huge scimitar in his hand appears at the head of the village, covering the sky and the sun. Under the sunset, the already long shadow is stretched deeper and deeper.

The man looked up, as if through the years of life and death, a dark and distant breath, slowly diffused, he grinned, muttered, "It seems that Abba has brought interesting outsiders again." ”
