After walking out of the fenced "worm house", Cheng Ru took a breath of fresh air, only to feel that his whole brain had only cleared up, if he wanted to say, he only wished not to step into this house again for the rest of his life, it was really a little escaped.

The mother-in-law smiled when she looked at Cheng Ruru, people who had never seen Gu magic had always looked like this, in fact, it was not only Cheng Ru, but even the men in the village who had never dealt with insects entered this house for the first time, without exception, their faces were pale, and they were even more panicked than Cheng Ru.

Cheng Ru just thinks that these insects look weird, and only those who live in the mountains and forests really know what this insect represents, which represents death. Just talking about the colorful scorpion that ran out of the porcelain vase, if an ordinary strong man was stung by a mouthful, he would stiffen in only three breaths, and step into the yellow spring in the time of more than half a pillar of incense.

Leaving Nibao to take care of these insects, the mother-in-law led Jiang Lili and Cheng Ru to the village, "Time is really limited, although the speed has been accelerated a lot, but the first batch has only refined seven or eight miasma avoiding Gu. Now that the witches refining miasma Gu are much more proficient, there should be a dozen or so in the next batch, I don't know if these are enough?"

Jiang Lili calculated, if he could enter the underworld from the black water pool in seven or eight days, it would be enough. It's just that I don't know what kind of situation is in the Black Water Pool, and if it's difficult, it's really difficult.

The mother-in-law said: "If it is for the sake of safety, a few benefactors will still stay here for a little longer, and it will be more than enough after the third batch of miasma avoidance Gu is refined." ”

Jiang Lili shook his head, "No need, we'll leave after the second batch of refining is out." ”

The mother-in-law stopped, "Is it so urgent?"

Jiang Lili's face was solemn, "It's urgent, the sooner the better!"

"Mother-in-law, I know," the mother-in-law exhaled, "it's great that young people have momentum, but you have to be careful in everything." ”

Jiang Lili snorted, and suddenly noticed that there was a seven or eight-year-old boy standing next to the fence, and was stunned.

The mother-in-law noticed Jiang Lili's eyes, glanced over, sighed and said, "That's Biao Wazi, since he beat his father dead, he has been trying to learn Gu art and avenge Di is death." It's just that there are rules in our village that Gu art is passed on to women and not to men. When this baby was a child, she sneaked into the earthen house alone, and was bitten by a centipede all the time, and almost didn't come back to life. But I still think about stealing Gu art all day long. ”

Jiang Lili raised his eyebrows slightly, every day when he practiced knives in the morning, this Biao baby secretly hid not far from him, and he would hold a wooden stick in his hand to learn from him. Jiang Lili has noticed him for a long time, but he has never broken it, and only Biao Wazi feels that he is extremely well hidden.

At this time, a few people just glanced at it casually, and then didn't talk about it anymore, and slowly walked away.

Often in the leisure time, time passes like water, the village is still undisturbed, no one does their job, what should be done, where to go, although busy, but orderly.

On this day, a few men from the village came back with a few fat wild boars, and there were cheers of children and women.

The man at the head wiped the sweat from his forehead and laughed, extremely proud.

Every time you go out of the village to hunt and come back, it is a great event in the village, and in order to celebrate the harvest of every hunt, the village will hold a bonfire party on this night.

Jiang Lili still can't fit into this lively party, and her mother-in-law also figured out the difference between Jiang Lili and Cheng Ru's personalities, and she didn't force Jiang Lili when she saw Jiang Lili at the party.

I came to the slightly quiet bluestone again, and the small fire that Jiang Lili lit on the night of my first visit to this village still left traces in place, and it has not faded because of the passage of time. Only a few claw marks can be seen on the ashes, presumably left by pheasants and sparrows that have settled here.

A fire was lit on top of the old site, Jiang Lili took out the uneaten snake meat, took out some spices from the storage bag, and sprinkled it on it after it was half-cooked, and the fragrance came to his nose.

The Yin Envoy, who had not been seen for a long time, slowly floated over and squatted next to Jiang Lili.

"Why haven't I seen you recently, and there is no one in the bamboo building?" Jiang Lili asked casually.

The Yin Envoy picked up a dead branch from the ground and slowly broke it, and threw it into the fire, "If you live in the underworld for a long time, it will be difficult to adapt to the human taste, and it will be uncomfortable." ”

"Could it be that when you smell a human smell, you want to suck people's yang energy?"

"It's not that the ghost cultivators in the underworld never suck people's yang energy, and there are regulations on it, but they can't act according to their own thoughts. ”

Jiang Lili raised his eyebrows, "Is it difficult for you to cultivate the ghosts in the underworld, and there is still a distinction between the national capitals?

"This

Not really," replied the Yin Envoy, "but it's not much the same." The underworld is actually an extraterritorial space opened up by the Emperor Huangquan under the continent, and the area is huge. But how many people are there in this world? How many of them can turn into yin spirits after death? How many of them can enter the underworld? Therefore, although there are many ghosts in the underworld, only one or two percent of them are cultivated by enlightened ghosts, and these two percent are divided in the vast underworld, where can a country be built?"

At the end, the envoy said: "Therefore, there is only a city and a city in the underworld, and a powerful ghost cultivator can build a city in the underworld, and divide the surrounding boundaries as much as his own land, and all the ghosts in it are his people." However, there are also rich and barren places in the underworld, and there will be great fights between cities for the rich land. The underworld is a country of fighting and killing, and all the dead are ghosts who are brought in to fill the army, half-opened or newly enlightened. ”

Jiang Lili was interested: "There is also a difference between rich and barren in the underworld?

"Isn't that right? It's not like you haven't seen that kind of shade plant in the ghost town, and there are many shade plants and trees among them that are very beneficial to cultivation. Therefore, there will be special ghost cultivators to take care of these plants and trees, just like cultivating elixirs from the Immortal Cultivation Sect, not much worse. ”

Jiang Lili pursed her lips, "I actually live like a person." ”

After hearing Jiang Lili's words, the Yin envoy sneered, and was overjoyed, "Live like a person, and when you get to the underworld, you will know the difference between humans and ghosts." ”

Jiang Lili was silent.

The Yin Envoy was also silent for a moment before asking, "Most of the people in the Yang World avoid the underworld, because the yin qi in the underworld is too strong, and if you don't pay attention to it, it will corrode the foundation and damage your cultivation. I never knew why you went to the underworld?

Jiang Lili snorted coldly, "When did you become so talkative?"

"If I don't want to say it, I'm just asking. The Yin Envoy broke another branch and threw it in the fire, "But you have to think about it, entering the underworld is a difficult situation of nine deaths and one life, or even nine deaths and no life, but it is not as simple as going to the Cuiyun Villa for a vacation and coming to this village to kill a vicious snake." ”

Jiang Lili didn't like this kind of didactic conversation, she always was, "I need you to discipline me, you better take care of yourself first, you must know that your innate yin qi is still in my hands, if I break my promise, you won't even have time to cry!"

The Yin envoy blew up, "Let's talk about it first! Besides, a gentleman is hard to chase after a horse, and he can buy a thousand gold furs with a word, if you break your word, then, that, then what have you become?"

"And you still don't shut up?"

The Yin envoy snorted, turned around and walked into the forest.

Jiang Lili reminded: "Walking alone in the mountains and forests is like a lonely ghost, don't you think?"

Yin made a pause, flicked his sleeves, and walked towards the village with hatred.

Jiang Lili muttered: "It's better to be a human being or to have some human flavor, and the same is true for being a ghost." But what is human taste?"

Someone who can talk to you is human, even if you chatter, he is speechless. You won't feel like you're talking to yourself, you won't feel like you're crazy, you won't feel lonely.

The moon was shining brightly this night, but Wu Zhou didn't seem to have the slightest intention of coming out.

。。。。。。

The village has always been peaceful, but the peaceful time can not be too long.

It was already autumn season, and there was a hint of autumn in this small village, and the wind blowing from the mountains was much cooler, and the sun hanging high in the sky was gentler than usual.

The autumn mood of the Southern Dynasties is still not bright enough, but it is enough.

The open space in the village was bustling, the half-grown child was caught in the woman's shoulder, and the men had never gone out of the village to hunt today, so many eyes remained on Jiang Lili and the three of them.

Today is the time to go.

The mother-in-law was on crutches, holding a small gilt silver box, and slowly walked in front of Jiang Lili, "There are twenty miasma avoidance Gu here, and the three of you can use them for six or seven days." ”

Jiang Lili took it and said yes.

The mother-in-law only thought that the Yin Envoy was an ordinary person, so she counted the Yin Envoy into it, but she never thought that the Yin Envoy was actually the body of the Yin Spirit, and she was not afraid of the attack of this miasma at all. Therefore, these twenty miasma avoidance Gu were only reserved for Jiang Lili and Cheng Ru, and if they were used, they could last for ten days.

Cheng Ru thanked again and again: "Thank you mother-in-law, thank you mother-in-law, mother-in-law is really tired!"

The corners of the mother-in-law's shriveled mouth showed a hint of a smile, and she was extremely kind and kind, "It doesn't matter, besides, the three of them are still our benefactors, and they should do things for their benefactors." ”

Cheng Ru didn't make any more polite greetings, and too many greetings made him seem a little affectionate. Many times, away

Don't just need too many words, just a look and a wave.

After living in the village for nearly a month, Cheng Ru was a little reluctant.

Suddenly, I saw a woman in a bamboo building striding over with a crying child, laughing apologetically at Chengru and a few others, and then muttered something.

The mother-in-law translated for the woman: "She said that because the child was in bed, she delayed the time to send a few benefactors, and asked the benefactors not to blame." ”

"Where is it, how can you blame it?" Cheng Ru laughed, "It's okay. ”

Saying that, Cheng Ru squatted in front of the child, touched the child's face, turned his head and smiled at his mother-in-law: "It is the nature of the child to sleep lazy, so let him sleep!"

"No," replied the mother-in-law, "no one in our village is allowed to sleep in, and the morning is a good time given to us by God, and we must not waste it." ”

"But it's natural to sleep, how can this be changed?"

The mother-in-law smiled: "If there are babies sleeping in the village, we will definitely wake them up, and these babies will remember." ”

Cheng Ru was stunned, "Didn't I hear that people never beat children because they sleep in this village?"

The mother-in-law smiled meaninglessly: "I'm afraid the benefactor heard it wrong!"

Cheng Ru's face was depressed, how could he be mistaken? The girl's gesture before obviously meant that!

After pushing Cheng Ru is hand, and saying don't delay any longer, Jiang Lili turned around and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard a shout behind him, and turned around to see Nibao running over with a hot sweat.

Jiang Lili was stunned.

Nibao ran in front of Jiang Lili, took a few breaths, wiped the sweat on her forehead, and handed Jiang Lili a small bottle.

Jiang Lili took it, pinched the small bottle and looked at it for a long time, "What is this?"

Nibao smiled: "My lord, this is a few Gu worms that I have refined for adults, the red one Gu can dispel poisonous insects, as long as you put it on your body." The white one is a detoxifying Gu worm, but it can only be used once. The green Gu is a poisonous Gu, as long as you drop a drop of blood on it, it will be able to poison others at your command. ”

Saying that, Nibao said, "Oh, I almost forgot, my lord, this is for you." ”

Nibao handed over a colorful bracelet, "This is a blessing in our village, it can keep you safe." ”

Jiang Lili took it, and only hummed again, and when she turned around, Nibao suddenly said cautiously: "My lord, can I ask you for something?"

Jiang Lili frowned slightly, "What's the matter?"

Nibao squirmed and said, "Biao Wazi is not in the village today. ”

Jiang Lili looked around for a week, didn't say a word, and waited for the following.

Nibao said: "I know this person Biao Wazi, he is not in the village today, he must be in the mountains." My lord, if Biao Wazi meets you in the mountains and asks you to teach him kung fu, can you not teach him?"

At the end, Nibao said: "If Biao Wazi learns kung fu, he will definitely go down the mountain to find the officers and soldiers for revenge, and he will definitely not be able to beat those officers and soldiers." ”

Jiang Lili looked in a trance, Nibao looked like Zhao Xianzhi who wiped his ass everywhere when he was three or four years old.

He remembered the day when he smashed an object worth some silver in the house of the first harsh woman in the village, and on the way to escape, he accidentally stepped on a stone and fell to the ground, his head bleeding.

When the spicy woman in the distance rushed over with an arm-long bamboo stick, it was Zhao Xianzhi, who came back from picking wild vegetables, who stopped in front of the spicy woman.

Jiang Lili was far from knowing what promises Zhao Xianzhi had made to the woman, only knowing that all the wild vegetables in Zhao Xianzhi's back basket were given to the woman, only knowing that all the wild vegetables that Zhao Xianzhi picked outside the village in the next few days were not brought home, only knowing that Zhao Xianzhi had been scolded by the widow for a day because of this death, and only knew that Zhao Xianzhi's arms were full of scratches from bamboo strips and black locusts in the mountains and forests in those days, and the newly made cloth shoes were also full of unwashed mud stains.

The wound on his head had long since healed, and the blood was no longer flowing, Jiang Lili only knew that that day, Zhao Xianzhi had to carry the bamboo building and carefully help him who fell to the ground and his head was bleeding, and said with a smile: "Good, it's okay." ”

After a long silence, Nibao panicked in her heart, and she only thought that her request had angered the adult. Just when she was worried, she saw Jiang Lili grinning at her.

"Okay," Jiang Lili replied, looking at Ni Bao who was full of joy but forced to cheer, he hesitantly raised his hand, hesitantly put his hand on Ni Bao's head, and hesitantly touched Ni Bao's hair.

"Keep my horse on the table, I'll ride it when I get back. ”

Nibao squinted her eyes and smiled, saying yes.
