Chapter 243: The Search (I)
Ji Chengche and Tang Xueluo immediately put down their chopsticks and looked at each other silently.
At this time, someone was faintly speaking at the entrance of the village: "Why is there no one in this village?"
Ji Chengche passed on the voice and asked Tang Xueluo, "Could it be someone from the Witch Sect?"
Tang Xueluo shook her head and replied, "I don't know. Let's learn from the same and find a place to hide and see what is going on. ”
Ji Chengche looked around the house looking for a place to hide, Tang Xueluo pursed her lips and smiled slightly, and her slender hand like spring onions pointed up to the beam above.
Ji was stunned, the beams of this room were empty, and even a three-year-old child could immediately see the situation above as soon as he looked up at the door.
He just wanted to ask, but suddenly his mind turned to Tang Xueluo and smiled: "Why am I so stupid?!"
The two of them jumped on the beam, Ji Chengche obediently stretched out her hand to Tang Xueluo, only to see her take out a small black pen dipped in invisible sand while drawing a spell on her palm, she secretly smiled: "I didn't expect that I would also be a gentleman on the beam one day." ”
Ji Cheng's palm was soft and itchy with the rapid trend of the small pen, and he approached her and smiled: "I only have one heart, it has long been you, what else is worth stealing in this world?"
Tang Xueluo's face was cloudy, and she pouted and nodded the last stroke, and said shamefully: "If you dare to talk nonsense, I will draw an ugly monster on your face, and I will never be able to wash it off in the future." ”
Ji Chengche hugged her and begged for mercy: "It's so snowfalling, I will listen to you in the future, I will say whatever you like to hear." ”
The two of them whispered and laughed, and their figures disappeared from the beams in the room one after the other.
At this time, there was a man outside the courtyard: "Your Highness, this room is ...... It seems to smell like food inside. ”
Ji Cheng's eyes froze, and the word "Lin" was written on the back of Tang Xueluo's hand.
It turned out that the person who spoke was Gou Bizi, who had been knocked unconscious by Ji Chengqing, and the lack of qi in the voice was obviously not healed.
The door of the "squeak" hall was pushed open, and the first person to come in was a middle-aged man with a mighty figure, who looked like a member of the Yu clan.
Tang Xueluo also lightly scratched the word "eagle" on the back of his hand like Ji Chengqing.
Ji Chengche suddenly understood that this middle-aged man was Ying Yunwei, one of the four great warriors of the "Eagle, Fox, Wolf Dog" under Xiang Lin, and he was the one with the strongest cultivation among the four.
I saw Ying Yunwei patrolling around the house and making a safe gesture towards the door.
Xiang Lin stepped into the door, and behind him was a slender and beautiful girl in black clothes and black gauze.
"Wang Rou?" Ji Chengche was stunned, he didn't expect her to be with Xiang Lin, let alone come here.
Looking at the familiar indifference and lightness in Wang Rou's expression, a wisp of indescribable emotion surged in Ji Cheng's heart.
Behind Xiang Lin and Wang Rou, there were two more people. On the right is Gou Bizi, who has been beaten by Ji Chengqing's stuffy stick, and on the left is a middle-aged literati in Tsing Yi, ** is Hu Xiyuan in "Eagle Fox Wolf Dog".
It is said that this person has excellent intelligence and unpredictable opportunities, and has won Xiang Lin's trust and trust, and is expected to be the first person after Fan Jian, the king of Wen.
"That's not right," Gou Bizi looked around and said with a suspicious face: "I obviously saw him and Tang Xue fall into the rock crack and enter the village, so I went back to report to His Highness, there is no second way to go here, why did these two people disappear in a blink of an eye?"
Maybe it was because Ji Chengqing's surprise attack from behind last time impressed him too much, and Gou Bizi was close behind Xiang Lin all the time, lest he be beaten again.
Ying Yunwei said: "If you smell it carefully, is there a smell left by that little devil cub in this house?"
Gou Bizi pursed his mouth and said: "Forget it, I inhaled a head full of rancid stench in Yanwu Mountain last time, and I am still nauseous, and I haven't thought about recovering for ten days and a half months." ”
Hu Xiyuan stared at the food on the table and asked, "You might as well guess, who made this meal?"
Ying Yunwei said: "Who else can there be, it's not the people in the village, it's the little devil cub." ”
Tang Xueluo was angry when he heard this, this guy opened his mouth and closed his mouth, the little devil cub was so rude, if he didn't want to expose his traces and clash head-on, he would definitely want him to look good.
At this time, I heard Hu Xiyuan say: "This soup is still steaming, obviously just ready, according to the speed at which we came, it is said that there is no time to hide." ”
Xiang Lin glanced around and ordered in a deep voice: "Search carefully inside and out, don't let go of any suspicious clues!"
Ying Yunwei, Gou Bizi and Hu Xiyuan answered, rummaging through the boxes and cabinets in the house, and did not even let go of the thatched toilet behind the house.
Xiang Lin sat down in the hall, Wang Rou stood at the door and did not come in, watching coldly without saying a word.
Ying Yunwei broke into the kitchen, and after searching around, he saw that the firewood in the stove was still crackling and burning.
He took a piece of dry firewood in his hand, poked into the tuyere and tossed it a few times, and the firewood in the stove suddenly burst into flames, and the flames soared like a golden snake dancing wildly out of it.
Ying Yunwei was caught off guard, but fortunately, he was the number one master under Xiang Lin's command after all, and he reacted very quickly, raising his hand and waving his sleeves outward.
"Bang!" The sparks exploded and scattered into the house, Ying Yunwei was startled, and quickly pounced on them to step on the sparks everywhere, although he was unharmed, but his hands and face were all blackened by soot, like a stove prince.
There was a huge commotion here, and Xiang Lin's figure disappeared from his seat in a flash.
Gou Bizi and Hu Xiyuan on the side also rushed over, looking at the scene in the house and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Ying Yunwei crossed his hands on his waist and snorted, "There must be a spiritual dao master ambush around here. ”
Xiang Lin said without hesitation: "It's Tang Xueluo!"
Hu Xiyuan swept out of the back door in a flash, his figure was no less than Gou Bizi, and he circled around the farmhouse in an instant, and returned to the kitchen, his movements were unbelievably fast, as if the figure had flashed and had never gone out at all.
He shook his head at Xiang Lin, indicating that he had not noticed any trace of Tang Xueluo.
In his expectation, since Ji Chengche and Tang Xueluo couldn't hide in the house, they must be hiding somewhere hidden outside the house. Who would have thought that Ji and Tang were comfortably watching the scenery on the beams of the hall.
Ji Chengche guessed that it was Tang Xueluo who was dissatisfied with Ying Yunwei's insult to him, so he tricked him.
He couldn't help but smile at Tang Xueluo, but unfortunately he couldn't see Tang Xueluo's figure, imagining that she must be smiling at him.
"Could it be haunted?" asked in a trembling voice in the kitchen, Gou Bizi's eyes wandered.
Ying Yunwei fetched water to wash his face, and said angrily: "Nonsense, where did Lang Lang Qiankun come from?"
Gou Bizi was unconvinced: "Then can you explain why this village is strange inside and out?"
Hu Xiyuan muttered: "If I were Ji Chengche and I found no one in the village, I would definitely search everywhere. ”
Ying Yunwei said: "They must have found the whereabouts of the villagers!"
Hu Xiyuan shook his head and said, "Maybe they were originally in a group?"
Gou Bizi rolled his eyes and said, "You just like to guess." Your Highness, it's better for us to finish the food and drinks first and then look for it slowly. ”
Ying Yunwei has always looked down on Gou Bizi, and sneered: "Aren't you worried about the poison of wine and food?"
Gou Bizi rolled her eyes and said, "You and I are a fledgling ......"
His voice stopped abruptly, and he stood in the atrium between the kitchen and the hall, and turned back to speak in a daze.
Hu Xiyuan frowned and said, "Brother Gou, what's wrong?"
Gou Bizi pointed to the hall house and said: "Wang, Wang, Wang......"
Ying Yunwei said impatiently: "Wang, you are not a dog!"
Xiang Lin and Hu Xiyuan had already reacted, and the people rushed towards the hall like arrows from the string.
"Bang!" poor Gou Bizi was still "Wangwang", and his body had already taught Xiang Lin to fly out.
Xiang Lin searched around in the hall and couldn't find anyone, and immediately rushed out of the door without stopping, and shouted, "Senior sister!"
Ying Yunwei came to his senses, hurried out and said in astonishment: "Why is Fairy Wang gone, why didn't she say hello when she left?"
Ji Chengche and Tang Xueluo hid on the beam of the room and waited for a while, but they didn't see Xiang Lin and the others returning.
Tang Xueluo suggested, "Why don't we go over and have a look?"
Ji Chengche floated down the beam of the room and said with a smile: "It's a pity that you made the dishes that you didn't make with great difficulty." ”
He devoured it and praised it as he ate: "It's delicious, it's delicious!"
Although Tang Xueluo couldn't see Ji Cheng's windswept appearance, he was also happy to hear him praise himself.
Suddenly, the two of them noticed that someone was coming outside the house at the same time, and hurriedly dodged to the corner.
As soon as the two of them stood up, they saw Gou Bizi rushing in, muttering: "It's a good table of wine and food, how can you ......?"
Halfway through his words, his eyes widened in astonishment, he looked at the mess on the table, nervously glanced left and right, and involuntarily fell out of the door step by step, muttering: "There are ghosts, there must be ghosts in this place-"
As he spoke, he turned around and fled.
Ji Chengche smiled so much that he almost choked on a mouthful of soup, and finally adjusted his breathing and said to Tang Xueluo: "Let's go, follow him and take a look!"
The two disappeared invisibly, followed Gou Bizi out of the farmhouse, and followed all the way to a small stream at the east end of the village.
Xiang Lin, Ying Yunwei, and Hu Xiyuan were gathering on the bank, and Wang Rou was walking slowly downstream in the stream with her bare feet, as if she had made a discovery.
Gou Bizi fled to the side of the stream with a smoke, but she was a little calm, but she didn't dare to mention the haunting in the house. After all, being laughed at by Ying Yunwei for a few words is nothing, but if he disturbs Xiang Lin's business, he will inevitably have to walk around without eating.
He approached Hu Xiyuan and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Hu, what did Fairy Wang find?"
Hu Xiyuan stroked three locks of long hair under his chin, and stared at Wang Rou intently, as if he hadn't heard Gou Bizi's question.
Gou Bizi was not annoyed, and followed everyone on the shore and slowly walked downstream along the stream behind Wang Rou.
After traveling more than two miles, the stream came to an end and flowed into the cracks in the rocks under the cliffs.
Gou Bizi looked at the crack in the stone and saw that it was about five zhang wide but less than two feet high, and said in amazement: "Are we going to climb in?"
Hu Xiyuan shook his head and said, "Even if people can climb in, those domestic animals can't. ”
Wang Rou stood at the end of the cliff, turned her face and said, "I can't see any fish in the stream." ”
Xiang Lin glanced at the cliff lying in front of everyone, and ordered in a deep voice: "Mr. Ying, you come!"
Ying Yunwei comprehended, and showed a pair of blood-red eagle claws and plunged into the mountain rock! (83 Chinese .com.)
