The child hesitated for a moment, looked at the swords carried on everyone's backs, and finally said nothing, turned around and ran away.
"Hey, why did this kid run away? I'm going to chase him back." Someone wants to chase him.
"Don't chase him. People in the village will think you are bullying him. We have already asked for useful information." Gu Qingxi stopped the man.
"What useful news?" The man asked doubtfully, but he didn't hear anything.
"There should be evil things entrenched in this village, and they have been persecuting them. There were monks who came to eradicate the evil, but obviously they failed. As long as we find this evil thing and get rid of it, we will have completed the test." Gu Qingxi said calmly.
Everyone was stunned, and some looked at her with admiration. Some people were very unhappy. The girl carrying the sword looked at Gu Qingxi with an unkind look. Everyone was taking her as the leader just now, but now Gu Qingxi has stolen the limelight!
"Let's go into the village and have a look." Someone suggested.
Everyone agreed and walked into the village together.
Gu Qingxi looked up at the dark sky above her head. Was it her imagination? As soon as I entered the village, I felt a little depressed. It was like entering some closed space. But no one else seemed to notice anything unusual.
"There seems to be a formation." Ancestor Wanling suddenly said.
"That's not my illusion. When I entered the village just now, I felt very depressed, as if I had entered a closed space." Gu Qingxi communicated with Ancestor Wanling in his heart.
"Agaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa That sense of schadenfreude. It was a pleasure for him to see the little devil being defeated.
Everyone originally wanted to ask the villagers for questioning, but as soon as the villagers saw them, they immediately went into the house and closed the door. Those walking on the road ran away quickly without waiting for them to approach, with a look of fear on their faces. In addition to the fear, there seemed to be a trace of hatred.
"Why do you feel like you've seen ghosts when you see us?"
"Are we that scary?"
"We are not bad people, why are we running?"
Everyone murmured dissatisfiedly.
Xu Baozhu approached Gu Qingxi: "Qingxi, what do you think is going on?"
"It seems that our arrival will bring harm to them." Gu Qingxi replied in a low voice, "Have you read the script? There is an inn, and there are always bullies who come to collect protection fees. The heroes who pass by see injustice and draw their swords to help and beat them severely. He was a bully, but the innkeeper glared at the hero and drove him away. Guess why?"
"Because the hero was able to help at the time, but after the hero left, the bullies came back, and they would only bully the boss even more." Xu Baozhu felt blessed, "The reason these villagers are afraid that we hate us is because there were monks in the past. They tried to help, but they failed, and instead the evil people behind them oppressed them even more."
"Smart." Gu Qingxi praised with a smile.
"Then there is a bully here, and this bully is very powerful. What the child just said also meant that the monks wanted to help them, but they all died. It seems that there are more than one group of monks." Xu Baozhu analyzed inferences from one case to another.
Gu Qingxi nodded.
Listening to the words of Gu Qingxi and Xu Baozhu, everyone looked at Gu Qingxi with even more admiration.
Someone has already asked Gu Qingxi impatiently: "So, girl, what should we do next?" After asking this question, the person introduced himself, "My name is Xue Mingbai, and this level requires us to work together to protect Villagers, if Miss Gu has any good ideas, I am willing to listen to Miss Gu."
This Xue Mingbai looks to be in his early twenties, with thick eyebrows and firm eyes. He has spiritual roots, but he has not yet introduced Qi into his body, so he is still an ordinary person now. He was very smart. He had seen Gu Qingxi ask the key to the village's problems before, and now he heard Gu Qingxi's methodical analysis. He had already decided in his heart that it would be up to Gu Qingxi to pass this level. .
"My name is Gu Qingxi. In fact, when we first entered the village, I found that we seemed to have entered a formation." Gu Qingxi looked up at the entrance of the village and frowned, "Besides, it should be that we can only enter but not exit."
"You said so? You just opened your mouth and tricked everyone into listening to you? You are wrong, then we all can't pass the test?" The girl with the sword finally found a chance to argue, and she walked quickly towards the entrance of the village. I wanted to go out immediately and show everyone what Gu Qingxi said was wrong.
Gu Qingxi ignored her and turned to look at the village. These villagers are obviously very resistant to contact with them and will not provide them with any useful information. Then you can only find ways to find clues yourself.
Gu Qingxi walked forward, Xu Baozhu and Xue Mingbai hurriedly followed, and most of the people followed closely behind. There are still a few people looking in the direction of the girl carrying the sword, waiting.
As a result, I saw the girl carrying the sword running to the entrance of the village, and then she rushed straight into an invisible wall. Then she was knocked back by the force and almost fell down.
Then these people all followed Gu Qingxi.
The girl carrying the sword looked at the direction where everyone was leaving with an ugly expression, but she didn't say anything and followed with a dark face. Although she had strong opinions on Gu Qingxi, she was not stupid. The task is for everyone to work together to complete the assessment, and she definitely cannot do it alone.
"Is there anyone who knows the formation? I suggest that someone who knows the formation check around the village to see if there are any traces of the formation. Since there is a formation in this village, there must be formation eyes and formation bases. Find these damages first. If it goes away, the person behind this village will show up." Gu Qingxi said.
"I know a little bit. I'll take people to check around. Who wants to go with me?" Xue Mingbai asked.
Someone immediately expressed their willingness to join Xue Mingbai.
Then someone else spoke up and said he knew better, so this person also took about ten people to check around.
The girl carrying the sword said with a dark face: "I can do it too. Is there anyone with me?"
But no one responded.
The girl carrying the sword turned darker.
"Go and go with a few people to take care of her. The mission is to ask everyone to cooperate." Gu Qingxi spoke. Although she didn't like the girl carrying a sword, she was not willing to ask for a communiqué at this time. private.
After hearing what Gu Qingxi said, someone followed the girl carrying the sword.
The girl carrying the sword glared at Gu Qingxi before leaving, and then took the people to the south of the village to check.
"Who is that?" Xu Baozhu stared at the back of the girl carrying the sword and said angrily. Qingxi asked people to follow her to help, and she still had this attitude. I really want to knock her teeth out!
