The child's face was slightly yellow, his cheeks were covered with dust, dirty, and there was a velvet flower on his head, but he was a little girl with a handsome and elegant facial features.
She looked at the spirit fruit and showed a hesitation, as if she wanted to lean over but didn't dare.
Seeing this, the casual cultivator was patient and coaxed him a few more words before the little girl slowly moved to him little by little and reached out to receive the spirit fruit.
The casual cultivator shook his hand, avoided her, and said: Tell me first, are there any special rumors in your village?
The little girl hesitated for a while before saying: Yes.
What is it?The casual cultivator was delighted and asked quickly.
Grandpa said that it would be bad if the village chief’s clan brother did not marry a wife again.The little girl bit her lip, so we were all at home, so he had to help save the betrothal gift.
Marry a wife?
bride price?
The casual cultivator frowned. He followed the ancestor Woqiu and the four elders of the Xiao family. He only entered the village later. He didn't hear much about the happy events of the generals in the village.
After thinking about it for a while, feeling clueless, I continued to ask: What else?
besides?The little girl stared at the spiritual fruit in his hand blankly, and said a little dull, "I don't know."
It seemed that he could notice the gloomy face of the casual cultivator. Not far away, the little girl's companions mustered up the courage to say: There is also a song that the grandfather said was passed down from his ancestors. Do you want to listen to it?
The casual cultivator immediately said: Say it quickly!
Several children nodded, waved the willow branches in their hands, and sang in unison: Willows are working, and they are spinning tops.
As soon as he finished speaking, the cultivator suddenly became dizzy. Slap, his back was thrust hard, and a burning pain came.
The casual cultivator was shocked and looked around while staggering. He was surprised to find that he had turned into a top???
Around them were children who were just frightened. They waved willow branches in their hands and sucked them down with laughter.
The crisp nursery rhyme continues: The willows are green, and the empty bell is set off.
Yang Liuer dies and plays shuttlecock.
The willows sprout and beat them.Note
After a while, several children worked together to pack up the scattered cultivators on the ground and piled them under the willow tree.
The root of the willow tree wriggled, and soon swallowed all the blood and bones, and the courtyard quickly returned to its original peace.
...Xiao Zhongtao kicked open a door, revealing the simple inner room. In the room, a mortal woman dressed in her twenties as a young woman stood up directly from the spinning wheel in fright.
The woman's face was sallow, but her eyebrows were vaguely beautiful. She looked at them with fear and fear, and she didn't dare to show off her vigor.
Xiao Zhongtao ignored her and went straight forward, smashed all the boxes, tables, chairs, and beds, digging inch by inch the ground and inspecting the four walls of the roof... At this time, the shocked woman finally came to her senses and asked dumbly: You... how dare you break into my house?
Xiao Zhongtao smiled coldly and said: Find something, you...
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a blockage of his throat. Soon, his limbs and bones felt sore and soft, as if something had been taken off all his strength. His magic power was silent, and he could not mobilize any of them even if he struggled... Soon, he and the accompanying loose cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage were all lifted up by invisible power, and blood flowed...
Below, the mortal woman saw this scene, sighed slightly, then sat back, and continued to weave cloth.
The blood wet the spinning thread, and the original white cloth of teeth gradually turned red... The woman looked at it, gradually stretching her eyebrows, revealing a look of joy.
At the same time, the ancestor Woqiu was standing in front of an old man with wide eyes, his eyes wide open, his expression of fear, and his throat was hoho sound, but no matter how scared he was to death, his invisible power still hung it into the air little by little...
********************
Azu Village.
East of the village.
A dilapidated house stands alone, and the closest house is hundreds of feet away.
The villagers who led the way took them to the door and said goodbye and left.
Everyone couldn't keep it, so they turned around and looked at the house in front of them.
This place can be seen that it was built very carefully and occupied a vast area.
It’s just that no grass grows inside and outside, and there is no vegetation.
Qiao Ciguang took the lead in walking into the yard and looked around. Except for the cold and cold falling from the years without anyone living there, he found no abnormalities.
She then told everyone: Don’t make noise in the village, don’t force yourself to break into the empty door, don’t attack the villagers, don’t wear red at night, and don’t wear flowers in the daytime.
This is a taboo in the village, and everyone must remember it and do not violate it unless it is absolutely necessary.
The group responded one after another.
Immediately afterwards, Qiao Ciguang called several junior sisters and Shi Wanli aside and sent a message: What do you think of this Zi Village?
This time, there were four fellow disciples who went to the island with her, Ruan Zhi, Zhang Jing, Chu Hanbei, and Zhong Shizhu, all of whom were in the Killing Dan stage.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Zhi immediately said: The most suspicious thing now is the funeral in the village.
On the way here just now, my senior sister asked many times, who died and how she passed away, but the villagers looked at her left and right and said nothing.
Senior sister, something is very wrong in this village. Maybe the villagers we just saw are not living people at all, but sneaky pretending?A female cultivator in a double-snail bun and a blue-sapphire skirt said.
This is Zhang Jing.
That's right!Senior sister, should we take action to test it?Chu Hanbei, a female cultivator who is combed with a cloud bun and a goose yellow shirt and a pine green silk skirt, also said, if these villagers are not living people at all, then we will fight to eliminate demons and protect the way, and can also solve the strange roots of this village.
Zhong Shizhu, who had never spoken, nodded gently: This floating island is related to Yousu Tomb, and Yousu Tomb is the place where all ghosts live, everything that hates the living.And these villagers are all mortals and have no cultivation. According to common sense, how could they survive on the floating island?
Listening to the junior sisters' comments, Qiao Ciguang's expression remained unchanged. Several junior sisters suspected that there was something wrong with the villagers in the village. She was the same at the beginning, but...
Thinking of this, Qiao Ciguang turned to Shi Wanli: Master Shilou, what do you think?
Shi Wanli frowned and thought for a moment, then said: There must be something wrong with this village!But it is still difficult to make a conclusion for those villagers.
After all, whether villagers are living people is actually not the most important thing.
Most importantly, are they good intentions and malicious to us?
We are not evil heretics. If the villagers have different situations but have no malice towards us, it would be a shame to act like this, and it would be against your and my heart.
Judging from the contact so far, they took the initiative to tell us the rules in the village.
Next, we'd better verify whether these rules are true or false.
If the rules are true, it means that no matter how these villagers survived on the island, or whether they are still living people, they are not enemies.
Otherwise, if we don’t say anything, wouldn’t it be nice to wait until we break the taboos ourselves?
If the rules are false, let's make a decision.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Ciguang nodded slightly: Not bad!That's exactly the truth.However, in my experience, some evil spirits are cunning, and their words are mixed with real and false, which is extremely confusing.So next, be careful.
