The young man's words made Fang Zhongjin and Lu'er both eyes light up. After so many days of no clues, there was finally a glimmer of hope.

Fang Zhongjin hurriedly asked the young man, "This friend, do you know such a thing as a worm? Is it from the village of the dead? Where is that village?"

The young man bowed his head for a long time, and finally raised his head and said, "I said guest officer, if you really don't know what a dead worm is, you are not from the village of the dead. Then don't look for him. That village is wicked, and it's not a place for us ordinary people to go. ”

Fang Zhongjin said to the young man sincerely: "Young man, I see that you are younger than me, and you should be able to call you a little brother." Actually, it's not that we have nothing to do but go to some dead man's village. It's just that I have a good friend who unfortunately fell into the worm, and now he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. I can't sit idly by, so I'd like to get some news. ”

The young man frowned and said, "Are you talking about the tall and strong beggar in his thirties that you just asked?"

Fang Zhongjin nodded and said, "Little brother is worthy of being a smart person. My friend is a rare good man, and if he dies like this, God really has no eyes. If you have a clue, little brother, please tell us anyway. ”

The young man squinted at him and said, "If I tell you that the worm is very evil. Those who fall under the pluto worm will have infinite strength, lose their minds, and eventually go berserk and die. Aren't you afraid that the worm will come back to you?"

Fang Zhongjin said with a solemn face when he heard this: "The person I am looking for is kind to me. Nowadays, the people of this world are not ancient, but he is a rare hero. No matter what he is now, I have to find him. ”

When the young man heard this, he nodded and said, "It seems that you are really the chivalrous man my father said." ”

He saw a glimmer of hope on the faces of Fang and Lu, and hurriedly added: "But whether you are good or bad, I can't care about this idle matter." ”

Fang Zhongjin was not annoyed when he heard this, and only asked, "Then you always know what the Soul Worm is." Just tell me how the worms hurt people. There's nothing wrong with that, right?"

The young man was silent, not knowing whether he was thinking or being afraid. After a long time, he finally said with a white face: "I have never seen what kind of thing the Immortal Worm is. It's just that in my village, the old people will tell the children not to play in the ravine. Deep in the mountains lies a village of dead people, where sorcerers use insects to harm people. When he said this, his body shuddered.

Fang and Lu both looked straight at the young man, for fear of missing the slightest clue.

The young man seemed to be caught in his memory, and muttered to himself, "It is said that this insect loves to burrow into people's bodies and absorb the essence of human bodies. When he lays eggs in a person's body, he can't bear to crawl out. Where can it crawl out of it? It's just a human heart, lungs, and stomach. There was a child who was naughty and accidentally ingested the insect eggs, and from then on he was on Huangquan Road. As long as one is disobedient, the insect will burrow and bite. Who in the world can withstand such severe pain?"

Lu'er was also scared when she heard this, and said in a trembling voice: "This kind of harmful method is really impossible to prevent. If it was really so powerful, I am afraid that the world would have been chaotic a long time ago. ”

The young man did not believe his words, and said angrily, "You are also going to ask about it." And you still don't believe it. The reason why outsiders have not heard of this insect is because it can only survive in our realm. Those who fall for this worm can only drink the water of the mountain stream in the village of the dead. When they saw the other waters, they were disgusted, and they could not swallow a drop, and they would rather die of thirst than drink mortal water. Everyone in the village knows that if a child suddenly refuses to drink water and wants to run out in the middle of the night to drink the water from the mountain stream flowing from the village of the dead, then he must have been hit by the worm. ”

Fang Zhongjin didn't say: "Little brother, don't be angry, we don't believe you." Since the old man in your village is well-informed, do you know what solution this insect has?"

The young man said coldly: "The people in our village have known since childhood that once they are hit by this worm, there is no solution. There is only one way to go, waiting for death. ”

Fang Zhongjin thought in his heart, there was only such a clue at the moment. Brother Liu has been infected with the worm for many days, and if he couldn't drink ordinary well water, he would have died of thirst by today. I've been looking for so many days, but I haven't even seen his body. Could it be that he actually found the mountain stream of the Dead Man's Village by himself? At the moment, I don't have any other clue anyway, so I might as well try my luck in the Dead Man's Village.

When he had made up his mind, he said to the young man, "Little brother, I know that you are a man of good heart. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been kind enough to remind us that the embankment is a dead man's village. But this matter is a matter of righteousness to us, and we must go. Please tell us how we can find the village of the dead, anyway. As he said that, he straightened up and bowed deeply to the young man.

The young man said, "Since you are good people who are not afraid of death, it is okay for me to tell you. It was you who insisted on asking, and this evil was not afraid to be counted on my head. The village of the dead is not far from here, but it is hidden a little deep, in the col of our eagle's head mountain. This Eagle Head Mountain is a hundred miles in radius, and there are countless mountain cols inside, and there are cliffs and caves. The mountain road is not easy to walk, you are just a big man, plus such a delicate little girl. Hum. I'm afraid that if I don't get killed by the village of the dead, I will fall to my death first. ”

Fang Zhongjin felt heavy in his heart when he heard this, although what this young man said was straightforward and choking, none of them were false. It's about Brother Liu's life, and I can't give up easily. Thinking of this, Fang Zhongjin casually threw the two copper coins into the money box of the dumb shopkeeper. said to Lu'er: "Although the search for Brother Liu this time is dangerous and abnormal, if even I refuse, I am afraid that Brother Liu will never see the light of day again." Will you go with me? ”

Lu'er's eyes sparkled, and she was about to speak. But suddenly I heard someone next to me interject and say, "Yes!"

Lu'er looked back in shock, how could someone snatch what she was going to say? But she saw that the young man's face was full of admiration, and his eyes were even flickering more than her Lu'er, staring at Fang Zhongjin directly.

Fang Zhongjin was also surprised, this kid didn't want to have anything to do with the Dead Man's Village a moment ago, why did he suddenly say such a thing now?

But he saw that the young man said flatteringly: "Master, although your old man is strong in martial arts, it is difficult to find a path to destroy the dead village alone after all. Why don't you take me with you? I'll tell you jokes on the way to relieve your boredom, can you teach me that secret weapon kung fu?"
