The Mystery of Qixia Chapter 24 The Puzzle
The sun came out so well on this day that even someone was starting to get lucky.
Wu Yi first asserted that the people of Sanli Village couldn't get out because of the enchantment formed by a magic weapon, and this magic weapon must have been buried in one place. Ning Zhi wanted to ask the people living in the north of the village directly, but Wu Yi said that he was looking for trouble.
"They don't understand anything, they may still be sick, although you are a doctor, but do you have medicinal herbs? Do you have a helper?" After the consultation, the three of them never approached the residents in the north of the village. Luo Gan also didn't want to go, so as not to be recognized by the village chief and cause trouble.
This magic weapon can only be dug from the ground under their feet. I don't know what it looks like, and I don't know what the distribution is.
Ning Zhi knows a little way to find people, but sometimes it is not effective. What's more, this is not a search for people. After he coaxed Xiao Ku to sleep, he and Luo Gan looked at the barren slope at a loss.
If you see a few suspected pits, dig them, and the surface where you have deliberately buried them must be different from other places. But after trying more than a dozen times, the magic weapon is not so easy to find.
At dusk, I returned to the edge of the original earthen cave, only to see two bowls of cold mushroom soup in the cave, and Wu Yi and Xiao Ku were gone. The plank that Luo Gan found last night was lifted, and inside was a nest of dead snakes.
"He's a liar!" Luo Gan smashed the bowl after eating the mushroom soup, and decided not to get involved in the affairs of Sanli Village again.
"I've really poured blood mold for eight lifetimes. I knew he was coming, and I had a ball! Now it's okay, except for the medicine that Xiao Zhinian prepared for me, he has all swept away! Oh, there is still a peach tree left to ward off evil spirits. Ning Zhi said indignantly.
Luo Gan stared at him, a little puzzled, "No, what about your sword?"
"My ...... Don't play with it. "When I went to dig the pit before, for convenience, Ning Zhi deliberately put down the sword and didn't bring it over, but he didn't expect to be swept away by Wu Yi, "I sacrificed a sword to suppress the evil spirit, and this time he swept away my sword again!
"I'm going to him too. He deceived my Shouyuan Sword and said that he would repair it for me, as well as a token from my sweetheart. Luo Gan hurriedly chased after him.
"No wonder your Shouyuan Sword is gone. However, the Shouyuan Sword was originally fought by him. β
Luo Qian naturally knew, but the old guy's face was hateful. And he thought about it, the old god stick always asked the girl in Qixia Mountain that day, and Luo Qian inevitably thought of the "living immortal" who harmed people in Xiao Ku's mouth and Wu Yi.
What's more, Xiao Ku cried when he saw him, and he couldn't say anything because he was afraid, and he was kidnapped by Wu Yi at this time. Luo Gan just forcibly refused to tell Ning Zhi, he was always worried that Ning Zhi disliked Wu Yi and was actually in the same group as Wu Yi.
If Wu Yi was really a wicked person who slaughtered the village, how could Ning Zhi be a truly good person? Everyone has their own selfishness, and Luo Gan didn't dare to talk much before he understood it. If you are uncertain, he can't wronged people for no reason.
"But it's really too much for him to snatch your love token. I've known this guy for more than ten years, why is he still such a scoundrel?" Ning Zhi stood on the big stone and looked at the direction. The sun is setting, and it's time to go out for the night activities.
They had no weapons in their hands, so they could only rely on Luo Gan's Yang Fire physique. In the eyes of people, it is ordinary, but in the eyes of demons, Luo Gan is a walking flame, and he is scary when he walks on the road, which is easy to attract demons and evils, and no one dares to approach him.
Luo Gan didn't know as much about this as Ning Zhi, for him it was nothing more than a little noisy at night, and it wasn't that he couldn't sleep? So he recalled the place where Wu Yi took him during the day, and also pulled Ning Zhi over there.
As a result, the room was empty, and the two only saw a bag of dry food pressed against a piece of paper on the table.
On the paper are two lines of charcoal-painted big characters: Qixia pillow spring shines on the clouds, looking for my father to call my mother to cook mushroom soup.
"What's that?" Luo Gan lifted the dry food, and was surprised to find a boxy outline protruding from the bottom. A few flatbreads wrapped in the cloth will show this outline? Pulling out these flatbreads with one hand, there is indeed something underneath - steamed buns that have been cut into boxes.
"Oops, hey, calm down!"
But how could he be calm! Being tricked one after another, Luo Gan felt that he was insulted, and he grabbed this bun and was about to smash it to the ground, but he was taken away by Ning Zhi in mid-air.
"It's good to eat. "The affairs of Sanli Village are handled by Wu Yi, and Ning Zhi plans to take Luo Gan back to Qixia to settle down first. The journey is not close, and these foods should be Wu Yi's reparation for them.
He glanced at the poem again, and there was always a feeling that something was wrong in his heart. I pinched the bun hard, but my fingertips were poked and hurt. Shocked, he broke it open, and there was a sharp stone in the bun.
Fortunately, I didn't eat it directly...... If you look closely, it seems that the bun has been broken before.
Luo Gan also saw the strangeness in the bun, and was very indifferent, "I'll see what's in this cake." "Nothing.
"Wait, there's a note in there. It was Ning Zhi who pinched it out of the hole made in the stone, and the ends were very dirty, and if I didn't look carefully, I really thought it was the mud on the surface of the stone.
Seeing this, Ning Zhi suddenly laughed: "Uncle Wu is really cautious in doing things, after all, he can hide from the enemy for so many years. β
Unfolded the note, it was a line of small characters written in ink: dig a treasure in the firewood pile, please take a hexagram on the old bridge by the river.
What other firewood piles are there around here? Naturally, this is the place where Dong Xiaoling makes a fire and cooks mushroom soup. They picked open the cold coals that had been extinguished for a long time, and there was a box underneath.
This should be the real treasure.
Ning Zhi was happy, opened the box and took a look, and it was another note: There is water coming out of the dry well, and it still needs yang fire and blood to break it.
Ning Zhi held back his anger and took a drop of Luo Gan's blood for a hundred yuan, smeared it on the peach wood, and broke the evil of the dry well, and after a while, the water came out of the water. Vaguely saw a wooden box float up, the two of them quickly fished it out, inside was a soaked note, barely able to see the words on it: village entrance, sword.
Running all the way to the entrance of the village, a sword was inserted in the mound, which was the sword that Ning Zhi left to suppress the evil spirits when he first passed through Sanli Village, and was buried in the magic circle on the northern edge of the village. A note was tucked between the scabbard: Thank you, run.
The two had to run, and dozens of corpses gathered behind them, who were curiously looking at the two men who could reach the entrance of the village.
They don't have weapons, but who knows if they'll drown people with a mouthful of spit...... When the two of them pulled their legs, they caught a glimpse of a tall white shadow sweeping over here, and vaguely heard a shout: "Ah Bai, Ah Bai ......"
It was night, and Sanli Village was thrilling and turned around. When the dust settles, how much does all this have to do with the two people who ran away?
Perch.
In the place where tea and wine are eaten, there is such a strange story.
"I heard that a while ago, a village was engaged in a strange sacrificial ceremony, and as a result, it was completely destroyed!"
"Where, where, are you talking about the village to the northeast?"
"That's right, it's called Sanli Village. The people from the government went over to check, and Yuan Kendao and the Lihe gang sent people. It was found out that these villagers were ignorant and thought that self-immolation could lead to immortality. β
"I heard Xiao Er say that a large number of people died. It seems like an old beggar taught them to set themselves on fire?"
"Hahaha, the old beggar believes his words, it's really stupid and hopeless. β
"Actually, I still have a living, I went to the mountain over there yesterday to chop wood, and I saw a little girl holding a mother-in-law burning paper. β
"There's no one in the village! There's no one! What you see, it's definitely not peopleβ"
"Shhhh
"Impossible!" the red-faced man who had gone to cut firewood near Sanli Village said to the letter, "My eyes are very good, and besides, it was broad daylight." What's more, not everyone will set themselves on fire. I also saw a man my age, feeding a big man with white hair. β
"White-haired, man or beast?"
Everyone speculated.
"Like a human, it has a head, hands and feet, and no tail. He also walks like a human, hehe! β
Everyone sighed: "Monster, monster, I want to go over and take a look." β
The red-faced man shrugged, "I've seen it before." I heard that the villagers in the neighborhood had the idea of going over to get something, but they found thereβ"
"What did you find?"
"The strange sound, a bit like a dog barking, but it was so miserable that I couldn't find it. Also, there is a snake shadow that always flickers on the dirt slope, and you can still see the lights on the north side of the village at night. Are you sure you want to go?"
