Chapter 19 The cause of death was Gu

After a burst of dazzling light, Jiang Mengsheng lay on the grass and slowly opened his eyes, the sweet breath still lingered on the tip of his nose, Jiang Mengsheng propped himself up, and found that Shen Mengsoul was also lying on his side, and quickly shook his shoulder, Shen Mengsoul opened his eyes in a trance, and the master's face was reflected in his eyes, "Master, why are you sitting in front of me?" Shen Mengsoul rubbed his eyes as if he was awake, "Interrupted my good dreams." As he spoke, he stretched and yawned heavily.

"What, what kind of dreams are you still having?" Jiang Mengsheng couldn't help but ask when he thought of what was in his dream, "Oh, master, how do you know." Shen Mengsoul was surprised.

"The master naturally knows, tell me what you dreamed about?"

Shen Mengsoul recalled: "I dreamed that I went home after completing my studies, and the neighbors in the township came to my house to congratulate me, saying that I would succeed in my studies. Shen Mengsoul said while looking at Jiang Mengsheng with the eyes of "It's all your fault".

Jiang Mengsheng thought to himself, this place is really weird, all the thoughts in his heart are actually realized in the form of dreams, thinking in his heart, his eyes are unconsciously attracted by the strange flowers not far away, it is a colorful purple flower, the huge petals are like an open embrace, constantly exuding an intoxicating atmosphere, Jiang Mengsheng suddenly walked forward in a trance, Shen Mengsheng was puzzled, looked up, but saw the master swaying towards a beautiful almost weird flower, Shen Mengsheng hurriedly shouted: "Master, master." Jiang Mengsheng didn't answer, he still walked forward slowly, Shen Mengsheng stood up from the grass, chased after him and pulled the corner of the master's clothes, Jiang Mengsheng still ignored it, and walked forward step by step, the closer he got to the weird plant, the more a strange and strange smile appeared on his face, as if he was obsessed, as if he was addicted, as if he was in pain....

"Master, what's wrong with you, why don't you ignore me, master, wake up quickly" Shen Mengsheng pulled Jiang Mengsheng hard to prevent him from moving forward, Jiang Mengsheng seemed to be unable to hear, Shen Mengsoul looked at the beautiful and bewitching flower in the open space in the distance, and said angrily: "It's all you, it's all you, if it weren't for your flower, how could the master ignore me." Shen Mengsheng rushed to the flower, stretched out his hand and pulled the flower stem out, only to see the flower stamen erupt as if frightened A pungent and fierce smell, Jiang Mengsheng suddenly ran towards Shen Mengsoul like crazy for some reason, and pulled Shen Mengsoul hard to pull him away from the purple flower, Shen Mengsoul looked back, the master's eyes were full of bloodshot swelling, as if he was extremely angry, Shen Mengsoul was shocked and scared, and somehow, the hand holding the purple flower stem never let go, and shouted:" You are not my master, I want my master, I want my master back!" Jiang Mengsheng was even more angry, his strength instantly increased, and Shen Meng's soul was in pain, and under the huge force, the flower stem was actually broken, and the purple petals were scattered all over the ground, and Jiang Mengsheng and Shen Mengsoul were overturned on the grass under the force of the shock.

The sweet smell in the air suddenly dissipated, leaving only the fragrance of green grass still lingering in the air, Jiang Mengsheng was thrown heavily on the grass, Shen Mengsheng fell into Jiang Mengsheng's arms holding half of the flower stem, Jiang Mengsheng rubbed his swollen and aching head, looked at Shen Mengshen who was crying and asked, "Dream Soul, what's wrong with you?" Shen Mengsheng knocked on Jiang Mengsheng's chest and said angrily: "You quickly return my master, return my master." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, kid, isn't the master here?" Jiang Mengsheng soothed, catching a glimpse of the half-cut flower stem held by Shen Mengsheng's hand, Jiang Mengsheng finally understood what had just happened, this flower really had the power of a charming heart.

Xuanxuan hid around silently observing Shen Mengsoul's master and apprentice's every move, and when the flower stem was pulled off, she almost couldn't help shouting, "What are these two people doing, they have already woken up from the illusion of purple konjac, why do you want to destroy it, and these two people are full of energy, their faces are ruddy, they don't look like they are sick at all, I have to hurry up and tell my aunt." ”

.....

"Master, what's wrong with you just now, no matter how much I shout, you won't answer me. Shen Mengsoul asked, "Maybe it's because of that flower just now, aren't you also dreaming, Mengsoul, the fragrance of flowers secreted by this flower seems to be able to confuse people's minds." Jiang Mengsheng explained, seemingly a little afraid.

The two of them walked towards the mountain, coming out of the flower field just now, but they didn't see any poisonous insects and beasts along the way, and they had already seen the top of the mountain after a while, "If you work hard, you'll be there, Dream Soul, hold on longer." Shen Mengsoul nodded, after walking the mountain road for so long, he was already very tired, but fortunately, he had already seen the top of the mountain, Shen Mengsoul gritted his teeth and insisted.

Just as the two of them continued to walk forward, a little girl with bare feet suddenly burst out from the front and shouted at the two: "Aunt Luo said, you don't have to go forward, you can go down the mountain." Before Jiang Mengsheng could reply, Shen Mengsheng rushed to the little girl and became anxious: "You little sister, we have all walked so far, how do you say let's go back, let's go back, no matter what, let us go up and rest." ”

Jiang Mengsheng hurriedly pulled Shen Mengsoul back, and said to the little girl: "I don't know who Aunt Luo the girl is talking about, we are here to find a century-old medicine master, we haven't even seen the sea, why let us go back?"

A little monkey suddenly came up behind the little girl, wearing a small felt hat that Shen Meng's soul had dropped, standing on the little girl's shoulder, grimacing at the two, this little girl was Xuanxuan.

"Hey, isn't that my hat? Shen Mengsoul saw his hat and rushed to Xuanxuan to reach out to grab it, only to see Xuanxuan jump lightly and take two or three steps back, Shen Mengsoul didn't stand firm, fell in front of Xuanxuan, the little monkey looked at Xuanxuan's shoulder and laughed and jumped around.

"It turns out that the girl has been following us at that organ bridge, I don't know what the girl means?" Jiang Mengsheng deserved to be the acting owner of the village, and asked calmly.

Xuanxuan teased the little apple on her shoulder and explained: "Okay, I'll tell you, Aunt Luo is the person you are looking for, how many people in the rivers and lakes want to find Aunt Luo for medical treatment, how can Aunt Luo be busy with only one person, so she asked the old man to design three paths, which are the "fairy road" and "human road" and "bridge of death" you see, and those who take the first road can go directly up the mountain to seek healing, "human road" Those who go on that road will encounter a lot of poisons, and the third one you go on is a test of the mind, the heart is the trick, the will is the will, and both of you have passed..."

"What, it turns out that you can go directly to the top of the mountain to seek medical treatment on the first route. Shen Meng's soul was stunned, "Ah, master, it's all your fault, didn't you pass it long ago after listening to me." Shen Mengsoul complained, "This... Maybe it's wrong to think about the teacher... Then, little sister, since we have passed the third way, why don't we go to the mountains to seek medical treatment? ”

"Oh, why do you keep calling me a little girl and little sister, I have a name, my name is Xuanxuan, and, that little brother over there, because people who walk the rivers and lakes often have complex thoughts, they always like to speculate on others, and they are worried about how the "fairy road" can be so easy to walk, and they will not choose this path, but they will choose it like you and those ordinary people, like your master, they will definitely not choose. Xuanxuan said.

Shen Mengsheng looked at Jiang Mengsheng with an expression of "it's all your fault, it's all your fault", Jiang Mengsheng felt numb for a while, and hurriedly interjected: "Girl, you still haven't told me why we can't go up the mountain to seek medical treatment." ”

"Hey, are you annoyed, although you have passed the test, but you ruined the purple konjac carefully planted by Aunt Luo, even if you don't ask for compensation, how can I help you heal, and the most important point... I've watched you all the way, and you don't seem to have any diseases. ”

"This, Miss Xuanxuan, I will compensate for the konjac according to the price... It is true that neither of us has any diseases, but a friend is seriously poisoned, and I have come to find medicine for him. Jiang Mengsheng explained.

"Then I can't heal you, and I can't even heal the sick people, how can I heal them. Xuanxuan was even more angry and said, "If you want to cure your friend, let him come by himself, otherwise it will be too irresponsible..." By the way, I would like to remind you that everyone will only be treated once in their life, and the same is true for Forget Worry Mountain, only one person will be allowed to come once in a lifetime, you have already come, and next time you will let your friends come by themselves. ”

"This..."Jiang Mengsheng still wanted to fight for it, but Xuanxuan waved her hand, turned around and ran towards the mountain, "Uncle, you better go back." ”

What Jiang Mengsheng wanted to say was suddenly blocked and couldn't say it, Shen Mengsheng looked at the little monkey wearing his hat and shouted, "Then you have to return my hat." ”

Xuanxuan looked back and smiled: "The konjac didn't let you pay for it, why do you crybaby still ask for so much, this hat should be compensated to me." Little Apple stood on Xuanxuan's shoulder and rolled her eyelids and made a grimace, and after a while, one person and one monkey walked away.

"What should I do, master. Shen Mengsoul threw away his little felt hat and asked the master, Jiang Mengsheng thought for a moment and said: "The medicine is really quite demanding for a hundred years, and it is very harsh and abnormal, but I think it is also my mistake, if there is no gap in the teacher's heart, I will not destroy the purple konjac... Anyway, although this place is far away from Chuanlin City, if you take a boat and take the waterway, you can reach it in two days, so you can only go to Chuanlin first to bring the Su gang leader over and let him seek treatment in person. ”

Jiang Mengsheng turned to Shen Mengsoul and smiled: "Little Mengsoul, the master will take you to Sichuan Lincheng to play by boat, how about buying you a new hat by the way?" Shen Mengsoul said happily, "Okay, then let's go now." "Ah, master, I want to rest. Shen Mengsoul begged for mercy. "Hey, Dream Soul, taking you out is not just for fun, but also for practice, walking, is a practice. Jiang Mengsheng said righteous words, Shen Mengsheng had no choice but to follow Jiang Mengsheng to the bottom of the mountain.

On a hill in the distance, Aunt Luo was looking at the figure of the big and small walking down the mountain with the sunset, and Xuanxuan behind her said curiously: "Auntie, these two guys don't look like bad people, they just destroyed the purple konjac, aren't there still a few plants in the backyard, wouldn't it be good to transplant them again, why don't you let them come up." ”

The evening wind blew Aunt Luo's hair, and Aunt Luo looked at the figures of the two and said: "The patient is not close to him, and he cannot specifically understand that the patient's body cannot be treated with medicine just by the explanation of others, and it is irresponsible for himself and the patient." ”

"Yes, yes, what else do you say about medicine and medicine that don't die, Buddha is destined to be a person, isn't this what Uncle Mo said, Aunt Luo, don't you hate Uncle Mo the most, why do you always mention Uncle Mo's words." Xuanxuan said that the apple on her shoulder was also smiling happily.

"You talk a lot, and I don't cook for you at night. Aunt Luo pretended to be angry and said, "Don't, don't, Aunt Luo is the best, and Auntie's medical skills are the best." Xuanxuan hurriedly flattered, and the little apple on the side was also nervous, motionless and honest to the point that she was extremely worried that she would have no food to eat, Aunt Luo laughed out loud when she saw it: "Forget it, who called us Xuanxuan so cute and sensible, auntie will make you something to eat." "yes, auntie is the best. Xuanxuan jumped up, and the little apple also quacked, as if flattering Aunt Luo.

"It's not early, the mountain breeze is cool late, let's go back." Aunt Luo said, Xuanxuan and Little Apple responded, and ran happily to the thatched house, Aunt Luo stood on the edge of the cliff, took out the black chess pieces brought back by Xuanxuan from her pocket and turned them over, only to see the bottom of the chess pieces engraved with the word "Xingluo", and said to herself: "Lian, Liu and the others disappeared, Ling Wusi was seriously injured and retreated, and now Xingluo is back in the world, is it Ling Wusi? or someone else?"

.......

In the middle of the night, in the city of Chuanlin, which is still brightly lit today, Su Fifteen found that something was wrong, and hurriedly took Liu Jianli and Jiu Qianzun to Shan Mansion, and the three of them came to the place where Shan Feixiong was killed, Shan Feixiong's body had already been collected by the domestic servants, leaving only a pool of viscous blood, "Senior Su, what's wrong, have you found anything?" Liu Jianli asked, Su Fifteen squatted in front of the bloodstains, suddenly got up, broke off a branch from the tree in the courtyard, and gently picked it up among the bloodstains with the branch, and suddenly looked like he suddenly realized," What's the matter, what did you old guy find?" Jiu Qianzun also asked puzzled, "Look at this ground. Su Fifteen pointed to a place with a branch and said. "What, there's nothing on this earth. Liu Jianli looked and looked and didn't find anything, Su Shifu frowned and said: "So young, how can your eyesight be worse than that of an old beggar, look carefully." Su Fifteen knocked on the ground a few times with a branch, Liu Jianli and Jiu Qianzun carefully identified, and finally found that there was a very fine transparent line on the ground that was squirming with difficulty, and constantly turned into a transparent liquid, and it couldn't be seen at all if it wasn't carefully separated, Jiu Qianzun was puzzled: "This is?" Su Fifteen smiled: "Gu worm." "What? It's such a sinister thing. Jiu Qianzun said angrily, "Wasn't this thing made up by that group of Gu masters in Southern Xinjiang?" Hadn't the Gu Master lineage been wiped out by decency a long time ago, how could there still be such a thing. Su Fifteen groaned: "Maybe there is a fish that slipped through the net, you must know that at that time, to eliminate the Gu Master, Shan Feixiong also made a great effort... However, it is also possible that someone got the Gu worm to poison the head of the Shan family, no matter which it is, he will have to wait until he finds Tannin to know, after all, he may have seen the whole process of Shan Feixiong's death. ”

"But how was the head of the Shan family deceived?" Jiu Qianzun thought about it, but he didn't expect how Shan Feixiong was deceived, Su Fifteen smiled slightly, "Wine." "Wine?" Jiu Qianzun thought about it, and also shuddered, "Then we may also be in the Gu?"

"I don't rule out the possibility ... So let's not act rashly and wait until we find the tannins and come back to understand the situation. Su Fifteen said, "That's all it can be." Jiu Qianzun nodded.

"Xiaoli, have you drunk tonight?" Su Fifteen asked, "I haven't drunk, my seniors who can't drink enough." Liu Jianli replied, "That's good, I'll go into the house with this guy to rest for a while, you are on guard outside, I'm afraid this Sichuan Lincheng is not peaceful." Su Fifteen looked at the quiet night and said, "Ah, senior, I'm so sleepy." Liu Jianli couldn't help it, "Hehe, I'll trouble you, when I check that it's okay, I'll teach you how to set up swordsmanship." Jiu Qianzun smiled and followed Su Shifu into the house, Liu Jianli squatted on the ground at the door, looking at a pool of blood stains, he couldn't help but be a little scared, and he couldn't help but cry out in his heart, "Hey, why should I come out, I'm really miserable." ”
