"Ahem...that's not the point."
Ye Qing coughed twice and said: "I really didn't lie to you this time. Brother, the weird one on your shoulder is like a child, but his skin is green and black, his face is old, his hair is gray, and he has a long beard. And those The beard, like the tentacles, is in your head.”
"In fact, not only you, Xue Hanshan, Evil Tiger, Fierce Eagle, Zuo Ming and others also have a weird child lying on their bodies."
"Huh? You said that weird one, shaped like a child, with an old face and gray hair and beard?!" Hearing this, Yipo seemed to have thought of something, and his face suddenly became very ugly.
"Brother, do you know this kind of weirdness?" Ye Qing asked curiously.
"I understand, I understand." Yipou ignored Ye Qing and muttered to himself.
"What do you understand?" Ye Qing continued to ask: "Brother, what do you understand?"
Yipo's eyes gained a little more focus and he said, "I know what the secret of longevity village is."
"Is it because of these weird things?" Ye Qing asked.
"That's right." Yipo said solemnly: "These child monsters are named Shougui. They are impermanent monsters. Shougui feeds on lifespan. They can parasitize people, but they will not harm the host. Instead, they will feed the host back with their lifespan. It makes it live a long life, but the longevity trick will feed on the lifespan of the people related to the host and devour their lifespan. Anyone whose lifespan is devoured will age faster than ordinary people."
"Relevant people? Didn't it mean that those who age rapidly are only the relatives and friends of those who have entered the longevity village?" Ye Qing asked doubtfully.
"Fu's relatives and friends all spread lies. Everyone related to the host is the target of Shougui's devouring."
Yipou said disdainfully: "Do you know why Shougui feeds the host back and prolongs its lifespan? Is Shougui really so kind? Stop dreaming."
"The reason why Shougui extends the lifespan of the host is just to devour more people's lifespans. After all, as long as people live, they will inevitably have to deal with other people, and those people will invisibly become Shougui's food."
"It's just that the closer the person is to the host and the deeper the relationship with the host, the faster the lifespan will be devoured by the lifespan. For those with a shallower connection, the speed at which the lifespan will be devoured will be correspondingly slower. Many of them may not be noticed by others, and they may have the illusion that the lifespan will only devour the lifespan of relatives and friends.”
"So that's it."
Ye Qing suddenly understood, so the secret of longevity village is not a curse at all, nor is it a natural treasure, but a strange thing.
"Brother, I think this Shougui seems to have some wisdom. Is it okay if we are like this?" Ye Qing suddenly remembered something.
"Don't worry." Yipo said calmly: "Although Shougui has a certain degree of wisdom, his wisdom is not high. It is equivalent to that of a five or six-year-old child. Moreover, Shougui is an illusion. He can see our movements but cannot hear them. We talk, so it’s okay.”
"That's not right." Suddenly, Yipou stared at Ye Qing and said, "Shougui is tangible and insubstantial. It exists in illusion. It is invisible to the eye and invisible to God. It is difficult to be harmed by ordinary means. It is more difficult to deal with than natural disasters and monsters. How did you do it? found?"
"I said I saw it with my eyes, do you believe it?" Ye Qing asked.
"I saw it, how is this possible?" Yipou asked suspiciously: "Brother, do you have the gifted bloodline of Breaking the Delusion Divine Eye, Dongxu Divine Eye, Xuntian Pupil, etc.?"
Otherwise, he really didn't believe that anyone could see Shougui directly.
Shougui is one of the most weird and mysterious monsters in the world. It is tangible and insubstantial, existing between illusions. It is invisible and indestructible. Otherwise, the secret of Changshou Village would have been solved long ago.
"Brother, I don't know any of these things you said." Ye Qing shook his head and guessed: "The fact that I can see Shougui may be related to the fact that I have entered another longevity village?"
"Another longevity village?" Yipo became more and more confused. Could there be two longevity villages?
"Yes." Ye Qing told the story of his entering Changshou Village and meeting Mu Qing and others.
Of course, he concealed the existence of the Sutra.
"The longevity village at night? Are there really two longevity villages?" Hearing Ye Qing's description, Yipo was shocked.
They and Ye Qing entered the longevity village in much the same way, but the longevity village they entered was completely different.
Ye Qingjin’s Changshou Village at night, Changshou Village at night is peaceful and peaceful, and the villagers are kind and beautiful;
He, Xue Hanshan and others entered Changshou Village during the day. During the day, Changshou Village was eerily silent. There were no villagers, only Shougui.
In addition, according to Ye Qing, he came to the longevity village during the day through the longevity village at night, but it has been two days since he entered the longevity village. During these two days, it seemed that there was never night here, only daytime, right? Does it mean that once you enter the longevity village during the day, you will never return to the longevity village at night?
"The longevity village at night and the longevity village during the day. Why are there two longevity villages?" Yipo frowned and moved his fingers quickly, as if he was calculating something.
After a moment, Yipo clapped his hands, his face became as transparent as paper, and he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Brother, are you okay?" At this moment, Ye Qing actually felt that Yi Pian was a bit older than before.
"It's nothing, the secret of heaven came back, and I just lost a few years of my life." Yi Pian said tiredly, but his eyes could not conceal his pride: "Old Taoist, I already know why there are two longevity villages?"
"So, you just gave up on this?" Ye Qing was speechless. He wanted to know the answer. Ask him. He could ask the Sutra. Just a few mouthfuls of blood. Is it worth wasting his life?
Too long to live!
"What's that look in your eyes?" Seeing Ye Qing's speechless expression, Yi Pou asked dissatisfied.
"Looks of admiration, brother, please continue talking." Of course, this cannot be said to Yipo. If Yipo gets angry and shortens his life by a few years, his sin will be great.
"I believe you, you are so bad."
Yipo naturally didn't believe it, but he didn't bother to pursue it, and said: "Actually, from the beginning to the end, there was only one longevity village. The so-called longevity village during the day and the longevity village at night are just the good and evil sides of the longevity village."
"Good and evil?" Ye Qing asked curiously: "How do you say it?"
Yipou explained: "The so-called good and evil sides, to put it simply, the longevity village at night represents good, and the longevity village during the day represents evil."
"If someone is malicious and greedy, and comes specifically to seek longevity, he will enter the longevity village during the day and be parasitized by the longevity trick. Although he can gain a long life, he will do so at the expense of blood relatives and friends."
"If someone has no ill intentions and does not come here for the pursuit of longevity, he will enter the longevity village at night and meet kind villagers. Although he will not be able to obtain a long life, he will receive other gifts."
"Can it still be like this?" Ye Qing blinked. What does this mean? If you want to have fun, you can't do it, but if you don't want to, it will make a shadow?
Of course, strictly speaking, it is not an unintentional intervention, because according to what Yipou said, even if you enter the longevity village at night, you will not be able to live long.
"By the way, brother, what is the gift you are talking about?"
"It's hard to say." Yipo shook his head: "It may be a heavenly material, or it may be an earthly treasure. It may be a trick weapon, or it may be a secret book. It's hard to say."
"However, brother, you didn't listen to the villagers of Changshou Village. You didn't sleep during the day and went directly from Changshou Village at night to Changshou Village during the day. Maybe..."
Hearing this, Ye Qing's face darkened. It could be something, it could be nothing. So, can I go back again?
"Then can I still go back?"
Yipou chuckled and gloated: "Brother, don't think about it. This process should be irreversible, because it will never get dark in Changshou Village during the day."
"Oh, I can't help it. Who makes your life more important, brother?"
Ye Qing raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Brother, do you think so?"
