Under He Jian Chuyun's narration, Shen Yi slowly remembered the scene that day. The two brothers had indeed said such a thing.
It seems that someone from a certain family went to Caizi Village and did not go back for a long time. It is suspected that they died at the hands of the evil spirits who were harming Caizi Village.
He wanted to say something, such as lending her twenty taels of silver to tell her not to go. Who knows how long it would take to get to Caizi Village, but then he thought that it was still a mystery whether the old witch could refine the beast-preserving pill. I think it's better to continue to stand still.
Tsurumi Chuyun hurriedly left the town in less than five minutes. He stopped in front of a carriage at the gate of the city and asked the horseman above who was specially soliciting customers: "Master, go to Caiko Village more." money?"
The groom was very happy at first when he saw the guests coming, and his face almost burst into laughter. But the next second he heard the words Caizi Village, he shuddered.
"Come on...what? Are you going to Caiko Village?"
Seeing the groom put his foot down on the ground and quickly put it back up the next second as if he had been pricked by a needle, Tsurumi Chuyun thought for a moment. They are all ordinary people. Let them go to a place where evil spirits may be present. That's a hundred unwillingnesses.
Money moved people's hearts, so she turned around on the spot and shouted to the other grooms: "Whoever wants to go to Caizi Village, I will pay three times the price."
As soon as he finished speaking, many coachmen waiting for passengers started to commotion, but no one was willing. One of them took a step forward and said, "Girl, are you from a foreign country? It's not far from Caizi Village from here. But what you don’t know is that the demons are raging over there, and our lives might have been in danger in the past.”
She frowned, feeling a little annoyed: "You don't have to go into the village, just send me near Caizi Village. I can walk the remaining few miles by myself." As she said that, a bag appeared in her hand, she shook it, and the copper coins The impact makes a "rustling" sound.
Her words and actions once again caused a commotion in the crowd, but all the coachmen were still hesitant, but it didn't last long, and soon a relatively young coachman came quickly from behind and said to Tsurumi Chuyun: "Girl , I’ll take you there.”
"I, I, I! I'll deliver!"
"I send!"
"Not three times! Two times is enough!"
"Girl, come to my house. My carriage is equipped with cushions to ensure your comfort on the road!"
"Girl, come sit with me and I'll take you directly to Caizi Village!"
"If you take my car, you don't need to pay three times or two times, just the original price!"
"..."
As soon as the first person appeared, people immediately started to rush from being hesitant to being a bastard!
So the involution happened immediately, and the grooms began to rush for customers, but by this time it was already too late. Tsurumi Hatsuun threw a bag of copper coins to the young groom at the beginning. After the other young groom took it, he immediately smiled and greeted her to get in the car.
The horses neighed, the carriage slowly moved forward, and the speed became faster and faster. In the end, only the coachmen who had not grabbed the passengers were left sighing. A big order just passed by, and their intestines were green with regret. That was three people. Twice the copper coins!
…
The groom driving the carriage was talkative. Not long after he walked out, he was heard asking Tsurumi Hatsun: "Girl, what are you doing in Naiko Village?"
"Slay demons and demons." Tsurumi Chuyun replied these words briefly. The driver at the front of the car seemed to be stunned for a moment. After a few seconds, he said: "Are you a psychic?"
"right."
"No wonder the girl dared to go to Caizi Village."
"..."
"To be honest, I came out of Caizi Village. I wandered around Longchun Town for a long time and had no fixed place. I am very grateful to the girl for being so chivalrous and going to Caizi Village to solve the evil problem. Otherwise, she would not have to pay I got three times as much, just give me half.”
"Huh? You actually came from Caiko Village."
"right."
"...Have you ever seen the evil spirit that brought disaster to Caizi Village?"
"I have never seen it before, and I was lucky enough to survive."
"Then tell me what happened in Caozi Village."
"It's like this. Three months before I left the village, chickens and sheep died for no apparent reason in the village. At that time, no one cared about it. The village chief brought people to invite the witch woman in the village to perform a ritual. After that, It was settled hastily, but who knew that the matter was far from over. More and more animals raised in our village died, from every three to five to every day. In the end, not only the animals died, but also people gradually began to die..."
"What way to die?"
"The blood was sucked dry, and there will be strangulation marks on the feet when they die."
"Is there anyone in the village when you left?"
"Yes, there are many more."
"Then why didn't they leave the village?"
"After living there all their lives, many people are reluctant to let go. Also, too many people have lost their loved ones and want to seek revenge on evil spirits."
"Revenge?" He saw doubts in Chuyun's eyes, "That's evil. How do you take revenge?"
"It's like this. The evil spirit doesn't dare to come out when there are many people. There will be a long time between killings. I heard that it seems to be afraid of fire... It's just that it can't be caught. Everyone is worried that the next one will die. He made people panic, so the village chief had to raise money to hire an expert, but how could those spiritual masters value that little money? So there was no result." Geng Kuai explained, hearing this He Jianchu Yun also fell into deep thought.
The evil spirit should be growing slowly. Sucking the blood of living creatures is a very common self-interest method that can harm people. But according to Geng Kuai, it is not easy for it to deal with ordinary people. You need to be prepared after a while. To kill people, it can't do anything if people get together.
It seemed like it was just a common evil spirit. It was not easy for her to deal with it as she had already reached the peak of the plague dispelling stage.
But the problem is, if the evil spirit in Caizi Village is really so easy to deal with, and just one person from the three families in the town can easily solve the problem in Caizi Village, when will it be his turn?
Moreover, although twenty taels of silver is not much, the disciples of the three families in Longchun Town may not have ten taels of silver a month, right?
Thinking of this, she asked Geng Kuai: "Hasn't your village chief asked Longchun Town for help regarding this matter?"
"The village chief sent some boys from the village to Longchun Town, but those people didn't want to take care of it. As time went by, the village no longer counted on them."
"I got it." He Jian Chuyun nodded, and Shen Yi also said: "Old witch, what do you say now? I'm afraid that the evil spirits were caused by several families in Longchun. If you go and ruin people's good deeds, you will inevitably I want to cause trouble for you."
She didn't know what she was thinking and didn't answer. Shen Yi licked his teeth and felt a little headache.
Longchun Town is a small place, and the strength of those families is not very good, not even the Chu family that was wiped out by me.
There are not many strong people at the spiritual level. Shen Yi can often see that it is because of the different environment he is in. He has been forced to play in the peak competition and has no chance to fry fish. He is almost always sandwiched between those big guys. Trembling in the middle.
The old witch's lower level of cultivation may seem like nothing, but combined with Shen Yihe's strength and hers, it would be no problem to directly kill several families in Longchun Town.
In addition, making offerings to evil spirits is a serious crime, no matter which dynasty you are in. It seems that those families would not dare to publicize it wantonly, and they will only suffer a loss, unless they know that the old witch is also a wanted criminal on the run.
But unfortunately, they obviously won't know, which is the main reason why Tsurumi Hatsuun doesn't care too much.
How can I put it... The old witch's morals are still too high. Shen Yi would have robbed her a long time ago, and she still went to great lengths to help Caizi Village slay demons to earn twenty taels of silver?
For him, slaying demons and demons is just something he can do casually, but the people in those big families are not good people, and they have done some unscrupulous things more or less, so Shen Yi doesn't mind robbing them. burden.
Geng Kuai, who was driving, kept saying something, but Tsurumi Chuyun didn't respond even a word later. After a while, he felt embarrassed and stopped talking, and the atmosphere in the carriage fell into silence.
The north wind in November is bleak and a little chilly.
Tsurumi Chuyun got off the carriage and stood on the roadside, looking at a group of houses on the other side of the ravine.
Geng Kuai, who also got off the carriage, rubbed his hands and came behind him and said, "Girl, how about I send you directly to Caizi Village?"
She shook her head, not agreeing.
"There's not much longer to go. I can just walk by myself. If you encounter danger along the way, I can't guarantee that I can protect you. Just go back."
"This... that's okay..." Geng Kuai was bored by the plain words, so he could only return to the carriage, turn around and drive back.
Hejian Chuyun retracted his gaze and looked over. He didn't let Shen Yi go until the carriage disappeared from his sight.
They had already communicated with each other in advance. As soon as Shen Yi came out, Shen Yi let out a sound of "Xila", and his body instantly grew to the height of a person. The dragon wings spread out and slowly lifted into the air.
Seeing the right opportunity, He Jian Chuyun jumped up, grabbed Shen Yi's paw, and said at the same time: "Stop flying high."
"This is the sixth time."
"..."
"Why are you so afraid of heights? Why are you still walking on your feet when you can fly?"
"I fell down when I was little, and I'm used to others taking me flying."
"How did you fall?"
"..." Tsurumi Chuyun didn't explain, it was a long time ago memory.
The carriage stopped, less than three miles away from Caizi Village. Shen Yifei arrived quickly, but after her prompting, Shen Yifei was not allowed to enter the village. Instead, he dropped down in an uninhabited bamboo forest, leaving She returned to her conscious space and entered the village on foot.
According to Geng Kuai, almost four months have passed since the evil spirit appeared in Caizi Village, but not all the people in the village have died. On the contrary, there are still many people, and there are still some fireworks from a distance.
However, no one in the village was walking outside, which made the atmosphere a bit gloomy. After Tsurumi Chuyun entered the village, he only found that most of the people were hiding in the houses and did not dare to come out. The doors of some surrounding houses were pushed open. Through a crack, children inside could be seen peeking at her curiously.
"Mom... there is a person coming outside."
"Don't talk nonsense."
"Who is that girl and why are you in our village?"
"It's not human..."
"..."
The whispers coming from the house were caught by Tsurumi Chuyun. She observed as she walked, her beautiful brows gradually furrowed.
She wanted to find someone to talk to, but as soon as she approached the door, someone slammed it shut.
In a small fenced courtyard in the distance, a dark-skinned woman and four or five children opened the door and walked out. They carefully started fetching water at the well. For a moment, Tsurushi Chuyun's eyes were locked on her and he walked away immediately.
The woman with the child was so frightened when she saw her that she urged her child to hide in the house.
Each one of them seemed to be hiding from the plague god. Tsurumi Chuyun was also puzzled. Not all people in the village were dead, which showed that the evil spirit was not strong. No matter how hateful the appearance was, it would not scare the villagers to the point of fearing him. Is this a living person?
She couldn't figure it out, but after walking around, there was no one talking to her. She had no choice but to go to the door of a house, raised her hand and knocked on the door.
Tuk-tuk-tuk~
She moved gently, trying to show that she came to the village with no ill intentions, but there was no response from behind the door.
When Tsurushi saw Chuyun not leaving, she knew that the next house would have the same result, so she simply waited and knocked on the door every ten seconds.
Tuk-tuk-tuk~
Tuk-tuk-tuk~
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
…
After a few minutes, the people in the room finally couldn't stand it anymore. After knocking on the door several times, the door was finally opened. However, the person who opened the door was not an adult, but a man who looked to be about five or six years old. little girl.
"Sister...sister, you, who are you looking for?"
After taking so long to open the door, Tsurumi Chuyun was a little angry. After all, the eldest lady still had her temper. However, after seeing the timid look of the little girl in front of her, she decided to soften her tough tone.
"...Little girl, my sister is here to help exorcise evil spirits in your village. Are your elders here?"
The nice voice and the gentle tone made people lower their guard unconsciously. The little girl was stunned, and the tense expression on her face slowly relaxed, but she was still a little scared. After two seconds, she asked: "You ...Aren’t you an old witch in disguise?”
"Old...old witch?" He Jian Chuyun was stunned. In the space of consciousness, Shen Yi laughed so hard that his body rolled uncontrollably while floating in mid-air.
"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha...Old witch...Boxes and boxes...Hahahaha...I don't want to call you old witch...Look, hahahaha, a kid I've never met calls you old witch. , you also said...you also said that you are not an old witch hahahaha~hiccup~"
For a moment, her mood reached rock bottom, and she felt that the heavy laughter in her head was particularly unpleasant. She couldn't figure out what was so funny about it.
Old witch, old witch, after hearing Shen Yi called her for a long time, she gradually got used to it, but today when she heard someone call her that, she suddenly had the same feeling as when she heard the title "old witch" for the first time. It was so harsh!
Before she could speak, the little girl in front of her was pulled into the room by a big hand, and then a man with a large black birthmark on his face walked out.
He opened the door completely and said excitedly: "Are you a psychic?"
Tsurumi was startled when he saw Chuyun, and then nodded, "Yes, I am."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man in front of him knelt on the ground with a bang, as if he was about to cry with excitement: "Oh my God!"
He shouted, got up, and walked with Tsurumi Chuyun on the road in the village. As he walked, he shouted: "Fourth brother, second uncle Ren, sister-in-law Ji, Heiwazi, stop hiding! Someone from the town will help us. Slay the demon!"
"Folks, come out! An expert is here, we don't have to be afraid of that monster anymore!"
"..."
Tsurumi Chuyun was not used to shouting like this.
But the man with the birthmark on his face didn't take it seriously and shouted several times. The village gradually became lively, and the people gathered around and looked curiously at the girl with a bun on her head who looked to be in her teens. (End of chapter)
