Chapter 133: Blood Mosquitoes
Yun Wuxian looked at his hands, but they didn't turn black. And he called for the man who had carried the body with him, and his hands did not turn black. It shows that the two were not poisoned. But how did he die?
Yun Wuxian felt that the whole thing was very strange. Including the first person to enter the store and die. When he entered the store, he did not die immediately, but staggered for a while before falling to the ground and dying. And the four catchers all died immediately after they went out. There was also a small pause before he died, but he didn't say anything.
Using empathy, Yun Wuxian thought that if he was a fool, before he died, he must have poisoned himself, or how he died.
Did he die too quickly?
Apparently not. Others did not observe, but the cloud without a trace was seen. Before he died, he was stunned by the kung fu of half a pillar of incense. So, what happened while you were in a daze?
The crux of the matter is still in the work. Yun Wuxian crouched down and inspected the corpse himself. He noticed that there was a small red spot on his neck, as if he had been bitten by a mosquito. Yun Wuxian checked the first person who entered the house and died, and there was also a small red dot on his neck.
Things are gradually becoming clearer.
Yun Wuxian put his hand on the red dot, and he felt something moving inside. Yun Wuxian thought at first that he was not dead. He examined his nose. He didn't have a snort, and he was obviously out of breath. Why do you squirm with things in your body?
Yun Wuxian took out the dagger and carefully slashed the neck of the man. Suddenly, a small thing flew out of the body, and because the speed was too fast, Yun Wuxian didn't see it.
"Ahh
The man standing behind Yun Wuxian screamed. Yun Wuxian hurriedly turned his head and saw the man fall to the ground, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he lost his breath. The man's face after death was the same as that of the man, including his red eyes.
Yun Wuxian saw that there was a red dot on the neck of the man who had just died. He knew it must have been the little thing that flew out that bit the man.
With the experience of failure, Yun Wuxian held the long sword in his other hand as he slashed open the wound with the dagger. Yun Wuxian dug up the wound, and just flew out with something, Yun Wuxian was quick with his eyes, and he swung his sword and cut it off.
When Yun Wuxian saw the mosquito-like corpse on the ground, he was dumbfounded. Could it be this little mosquito that kills those people?
The others in the inn looked at the cloud without a trace operation in a daze. They don't know anything, they don't understand anything. Their only hope was for Yun Wuxian to find out the cause of those people's deaths as soon as possible.
"Boss, you've seen this mosquito. Yun Wuxian pointed at the mosquitoes on the ground.
The shopkeeper is naturally a local, and Yun Wuxian tried to learn the origin of the mosquito from the shopkeeper's mouth.
The shopkeeper squatted on the ground and looked at the dead mosquitoes seriously. They are called mosquitoes because they look like mosquitoes, and in terms of size, they are more horses than mosquitoes.
"I've never seen such a big mosquito. The shopkeeper said.
"It's the mosquito that's killing these people. "I've already killed one, but I'm not sure how many mosquitoes there are here." Those who ran out of the inn were all dead. If I'm not mistaken, there must be this mosquito outside the inn. ”
"Blood mosquitoes, yes, this is blood mosquitoes. Someone said loudly.
Yun Wuxian looked around the crowd, and he saw a thin man holding his head, squatting on the ground, his body trembling. All eyes were on him, and he must have been the one who had just spoken.
"Do you know this mosquito?" asked Yun Wuji.
The man lowered his head and ignored Yun Wuxi. However, his body was trembling all the time, and Yun Wuxian knew that he must be very afraid in his heart. He reached out and patted the man on the shoulder, he wanted to help him reduce his fear.
Everyone turned their attention to the thin man.
After a while, the thin man's body did not tremble. Yun Wuxian said, "Now, these people in the room are all in the same boat. For the sake of our lives, each of us must do our best to control this mosquito. ”
"It's useless. Everyone here has to die. The thin man muttered, "It's a curse, and now, the curse has manifested." No one can escape. ”
The thin man's words caused panic in the crowd. Most of these people are nearby farmers, uneducated, and belong to the kind of people who are not afraid of heaven and earth. But there is one thing they are afraid of, and that is the curse. This is also a very important reason why people here have not dared to do evil things. It was a remote place, and the laws of the imperial court did not deter them in any way. Only curses can let them know what to do and what not to do.
Now, the thin man says that the appearance of the 'Blood Mosquito' is a curse. The people in the room, except for Yun Wuxi, all showed frightened eyes. There was a commotion in the crowd, and some people rushed out of the inn as if they were crazy. Of course, there is only one result that awaits them.
Death.
More and more people are dying, and more and more fear is permeating the living. Yun Wuxian was helpless at the moment. He has been walking the rivers and lakes for more than a year, and it is not uncommon to see strange and terrifying things. But when he was helpless like now, it was the first time he had encountered it.
It was getting dark. Fortunately, there were still lights in the inn, and everyone huddled together, watching in horror as bright spots flew around in the dark world outside. Yun Wuxian knew that those two points should be "blood mosquitoes". One blood mosquito is enough to kill a person, and no one can resist so many "blood mosquitoes".
In this way, everyone was trapped in the inn for two days and two nights. Some people couldn't stand the hunger anymore and fainted. More people lay on the ground, dying. Yun Wuxian knows some spells, and compared to those people, his physical condition is slightly better. Yun Wuxian pondered, he couldn't think of a good way, and everyone here would starve to death.
Since. Blood mosquitoes attack the human body and cause death. Then, if you don't let the blood mosquito get close to the human body, you can block the attack of the blood mosquito.
Making up his mind, Yun Wuxian took off the clothes he had made and put them on his head, revealing only his two eyes. When Yun Wuxian walked out of the inn, he brandished his long sword, wrapping his body in water, not to mention, his method really worked. Although the 'blood mosquito' is powerful, it has nowhere to put its mouth when it comes to the protection of clouds without a trace.
After Yun Wuxian walked out of the inn, he thought of those people in the inn, and his heart was very unbearable. After thinking about it again and again, Yun Wuxian returned and took the living people in the inn out of the inn one by one.
Everyone came back to life from the brink of death, and they were naturally grateful to Yun Wuxian for their kindness. Yun Wuxian has become accustomed to the words of thanks that others say after helping others. So, he wasn't excited this time, just nodded slightly.
After all the people left, Yun Wuxian picked up the bamboo basket and was about to hurry. Suddenly, someone grabbed Yun Wuji's clothes, and Yun Wuxian turned around and saw that it was a young man, about the same age as him.
"Why didn't you leave?" asked Yun Wuji.
"My name is Xiaohu. You can also call me Ah Hu. Ah Hu said, "You saved my life, and I haven't thanked you yet." How can I go. Say, what do you want me to do for you?"
"That's right. Yun Wuxian smiled and said, "However, I don't need your help right now." Otherwise, you keep it in mind first, and when we meet in the future, you are helping me, okay?"
"The rivers and lakes are so big. We don't know if we can meet. Ah Hu said, "You better say, what do you want me to do for you." You don't know, I'm the person who doesn't like to take advantage of me the most. You helped me, and I must give it back to you. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. ”
"What do you want?" said Yun Wuji, "or treat me to a meal." I haven't eaten in days. ”
"I don't have any money in my pocket, how can I invite you to dinner?" Ah Hu looked at Yun Wuxian and asked with a serious face.
Yun Wuxian was amused by Ah Hu. He thought, a penniless person has been saying that he wants to repay himself, how do you want him to repay it? Yun Wuxian looked left and right, and indeed gave him a face. He didn't expect that helping others would end up in trouble.
"Hey, I remembered. Ah Hu said, "I'll take you to the mountains." I begged the boss to invite you to dinner, what do you think?"
"You're paying attention. Let's go. Yun Wuxian said.
Ah Hu led the way in front, Yun Wuxian followed him, and after walking for half an hour, the two came to the foot of a mountain, Yun Wuxian looked at the towering peak, and asked, "Is this your home?"
"I don't have a home. Ah Hu said, "When I was very young, my mother died. I'm just wandering outside. To fill my stomach, I started stealing. ”
"That's not right. Didn't you just say that. Don't like to accept help from others. Then how can you tolerate stealing from yourself?" asked Yun Wuji.
"I stole it myself, and I wasn't stolen from me, so what's wrong. Ah Hu said, "I steal things by myself and enjoy them myself, and I also rely on labor to obtain them." ”
As soon as Ah Hu said this, Yun Wuxian couldn't find anything to refute him for a while. Yun Wuxian smiled and asked, "What happened later?"
"Later, one time, I was caught stealing something, and I was beaten half to death. Then, the boss appeared. The boss beat the man, and he also said, I have good qualifications, and he wants to take me up the mountain. Since then, I have followed the boss. Hu pointed to the highest part of the mountain and said, "Where we live." Let's hurry up, or we won't be able to get up until dark. ”
Yun Wuxian followed behind Ah Hu, and the two of them climbed halfway up the mountain in one go. Yun Wuxian is nothing, but Ah Hu is not. He slowed down and climbed to the top of the mountain in one breath.
