Chapter 3 Snakes and Birds
This meal is the best table of food that this restaurant has come up with, even if the innkeeper doesn't actually know that the guest he thought could buy a cart of wine is actually penniless, the meal is very fragrant, but the six people eat it tastelessly, Ah Niu just wants to delay some time, and if he can delay a little, maybe he will have a chance to get out of the control of this poisonous sore.
Among the six people, Yanzi Li Wugong is the best, but he has no chance of winning against this poisonous sore.
"Hurry up and eat, and when you're done, you're ready to go. ”
The poisonous sores Taoist said with a smile, this kind of road is really on the road in the eyes of others, but when it comes to Ah Niu, it has become a different meaning.
There was no different color at the dinner table, but Ah Niu knocked on Yan Zi Li's knee under the table, although the latter didn't understand Ah Niu's meaning, but when Ah Niu splashed the cup of hot tea on the face of the poisonous sore, Ah Niu wanted to run away.
Such a change came too quickly, the poisonous sores Taoist didn't even react Ah Niu rushed out of the inn, this movement attracted a lot of officers and soldiers who were responsible for posting notices, I thought Ah Niu was risking death to move the rescue soldiers, but I didn't expect Ah Niu to leave without looking at those officers and soldiers.
"It's looking for death. ”
The poisonous sores Taoist sneered, the hat and the black veil were splashed with a lot of hot tea, and Yan Zili could even see the fishy yellow water flowing down after the poisonous sores behind the veil broke.
"What can I do if I eat my poison, even if I run out? I have to say that your friend is really righteous enough, leaving you five people, are you going to move the rescuers? I'm afraid that the rescuers will die of poison before they arrive. ”
In the end, he didn't dare to eat the overlord meal in front of the officers and soldiers so grandly, the poisonous sores Taoist waited until all the officers and soldiers in the vicinity had left before getting up to pay, he didn't have any money, just unveiled such an act that scared the shopkeeper directly into fainting, and he didn't dare to make too much noise in front of everyone, they pushed the wheelbarrow on the road.
"It's a pity that one of them ran away, I guess he must have wanted to move the rescuers to save you, in fact, you can also choose to leave on the street, but you didn't do that, because you don't want to die so painfully, or you still have hope, of course, none of this matters, anyway, I only kill one person a day, and some of you can live five more days." ”
The way back is not very easy to walk, the wheelbarrow is very heavy with dozens of jars of wine, the two women are fine, not arranged by the poisonous sores to push the cart, Zhao Jian and Zhao Qian are pulling the cart in front, and Yanzi Li is pushing behind the wheelbarrow, and from time to time by the whipping of the poisonous sores Taoist.
"You'd better go back and kill us, or I'll make your death ugly if we escape." ”
The answer to this Jiangyang thief was not the words of the poisonous sores Taoist, but another whip whipped on the back of Yanzi Li, this wooden strip is soft but soft and strong, although it is only a skin injury, but it is more painful than a wound to the muscles and bones.
Half a day's journey, it was almost dark when I went back, during which several times Yanzi Li and Zhao Jian and Zhao Qian had thought that they would die anyway, it was better to give it a go before they died, but they couldn't do that, because the poisonous sores Taoist took the two women.
"If you are disobedient, I will cut the faces of both of them with a knife, and then smear them with honey and put them in the ant's nest. Let their faces be no better than mine, of course, if you are obedient, maybe you can live a few more days, you don't expect that kid to invite any powerful people to save you, without my antidote, it is estimated that he has died of poison now, and his internal organs have turned into a pool of pus, stains, and the feeling, not to mention. ”
The poisonous sores Taoist thought that Ah Niu would be poisoned and died, but Ah Niu was alive and well, the poison was indeed poison, but Ah Niu did not feel any pain, touched the gray bead in his arms that had never fallen, the cracks have become more and more, from the time Ah Niu woke up, the sword that had pierced the chest failed to take his life, thinking about it, it can only be attributed to this bead of unknown material, and now the bead cracks come out again, I am afraid that it is because of the reason for the poison of the poisonous sore.
Earlier, Ah Niu had not called for officers and soldiers on the street, because not to mention whether he could take down the poisonous sores Daoist, that is, if he took it down, it would be a fish dead and the net would be broken, so what kind of antidote could be talked about? Not to mention that Ah Niu was not sure whether this bead could really detoxify people, or maybe it was because he was born with a constitution that was invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, and if the poisonous sores and dogs jumped over the wall in a hurry, and one of them accidentally never came back, then the lives of the other five people might not be saved.
Thinking about it, I can only outwit it, but no matter what, I have to find one or two powerful helpers, but the two "masters" in front of me who have unveiled the list don't look like masters from anywhere, and they can even be said to be a little sloppy.
"Can the two of you really have the ability to capture that demon Dao? It's not that I'm alarmist, that demon Dao means very tightly, and the six of us can't do anything about him. ”
Ah Niu is still a wanted criminal in the state and county, but because the time is too far away, and all the attention of such a remote small county town has been attracted by the recent dry corpse case, so Ah Niu is not worried about being found in his face, there are two people in front of him, two strange people, an old man, his hair is messy, a crow on his shoulder from time to time on his scalp to find some lice that have not been taken care of for a long time, a mouth full of beard and snot has never been wiped clean, as for the other person, it is strange to say that it is a little scary, with a red-eyed snake coiled around his neck, raising his head high, and spitting fishy letters from time to time, If this snake is coiled on Jian Wuqiu's body, maybe it will be more like, because the sword has no survival and snake pupils, and this old man with black and white hair is born with a pair of white pupils, Ah Niu thought that this old man was similar to Jian Wuqiu, but when the old man almost fell down when he entered the door, he knew that the old man was a blind man.
A blind man with snakes and a sloppy old man with crows, they have to deal with the poisonous sores, which does sound a little funny.
"With all due respect, I think you two might as well form a partner with the demon road, it looks more like this, if you want to catch the demon road, you can't just rely on your crow and this snake, I think it's probably just a food delivery, it's better to simply change people, I don't want to run in vain." ”
Ah Niu was straightforward.
He is in the official office of this small town, said to be the official office, in fact, in addition to a county official, there are a few servants left, as for the soldiers who came to post the notice today are not the soldiers of this county, so the official is so simple, the county official heard that there is a clue to the murderer, so he set up a hall for Ah Niu, responsible for selecting the person who captured the demon road, since then, he simply let go, everything is up to Ah Niu.
Ah Niu didn't deliberately look for the stubble of these two weirdos, but now that people's lives are at stake, they really can't make any jokes, who knows that the old man who plays with snakes actually plucked out his ears and said impatiently.
"I said that you kid is not annoying, will the old man and the two of them be so stupid that they can't be sent to death? There are endless delicacies of the mountains and seas in this flower world, and the little lady who doesn't have enough fun, who will go to death if he has nothing to do?"
Ah Niu was immediately stunned, and said in his heart, you two old men are so sloppy, I don't know if you can eat a penny of baked cakes, and you are still boasting about the delicacies of the mountains and seas of Haikou here, not to mention any little lady, I am afraid that others will be scared enough to see your crow and a flower snake.
I was unhappy, Ah Niu didn't say it after all, there is no shortage of masters in the world who don't show their faces, maybe there are also those who happen to step on shit and meet two.
Ah Niu cleared his throat and said solemnly.
"Two old-timers, I have to tell you how dangerous this trip is, the demon road is so powerful, build an altar by yourself, dig a pool to let people take a bloody bath, and I don't know how many lives I have suffered, the two old-timers, it's not that the kid looks down on the two, just because my friend is still in the hands of the demon road, and the juniors don't want to waste time, so the two seniors had better show their hands to the juniors, and let the juniors see the skills of the two seniors, after all, ...... After all, this senior is not even convenient for your eyes, maybe you will step on the air when you go to the mountain. ”
"Stinky boy, where did you get so much nonsense? The old man is blind, but my brother is not blind. ”
The old man of the flower snake said that he was brother, Ah Niu thought he was talking about the old crow man on the side, but he didn't expect that he was talking about the flower snake coiled around his neck, and the flower snake opened his mouth and hissed after hearing the old man's words, as if he was warning Ah Niu.
Ah Niu was silent for a moment and then said.
"If this flower snake is your brother and can be your eyes, why did the senior almost fall when he entered the door?"
The white-eyed old man blushed when he heard this.
"Ahem, my brother didn't have a good rest last night, it's just a very common thing to take a nap from time to time today, don't talk nonsense, let's hurry up, I'm afraid I won't be able to save the lives of your friends if it's late." ”
Ah Niu will be suspicious, and there are many people who come to unveil the list, but most of them are deserted and fled after Ah Niu Dao explained the demon situation, and only the two old men in front of him who don't know what the way to come from are not shocked, although they don't know whether they are masters or not, but at the moment they can only use dead horses as live horse doctors, and I am afraid that they will lose a life if they are a little later.
The county official was quite generous in the end, knowing that the three of them were going to capture the demon road, so he donated the fastest three horses in this small county office, and he didn't even forget to tell him before parting.
"Three, don't bring my horse into that altar, remember, remember. ”
Three fast horses out of the small county town, these two old men not only did not look like powerful people, but even staggered when they rode on the horse, in the end they finally stabilized their figures, and finally reached the mountain range before sunset, the altar was not far away, Ah Niu let go of the three horses as promised, and the old horse knew the way, and soon returned the same way.
"It should be around here. ”
The old man muttered softly.
"I didn't expect to come here, if we hadn't inquired all the way, I'm afraid we wouldn't have found it, brother, it's up to you." ”
After saying this, the flower snake coiled around the neck of the old man swam down gently, spit out the letter, and soon disappeared into the dense bushes, and at the same time, the crow on the old man's shoulder also fluttered its wings and flew deep into the dense forest.
"Do you know that demon?"
Ah Niu expressed his surprise in his heart.
