After a long time, Ye Xiao took a long breath.
He couldn't understand.
That's when it happened.
"Boom!"
In the sky outside Yizhuang, there was not only a heavy rainstorm, but also bursts of thunder. However, lightning and thunder could be seen in the sky, and lightning flashed across the sky one after another from time to time.
Ye Xiao was calm despite such thunder.
But Ren Tingting, who was cleaning up the Yizhuang nearby, was so frightened that her face turned pale.
She even curled up into a ball in fear, looking very pitiful.
Seeing this, Ye Xiao couldn't help but said, "Compared with zombies and ghosts, do you think this thunder is scary?"
He said this.
Ren Tingting's dark eyes couldn't help but turn again and again, and she felt that Ye Xiao's words really made sense after listening carefully.
Those zombies with green faces and fangs, and ferocious faces, as well as ghosts that appear and disappear, killing people invisible, are the most terrifying.
"Thank you, Mr. Ye."
The fear on Ren Tingting's pretty face also eased a lot. She stood up straight with her slim figure and thanked Ye Xiao.
"No need, you are a smart girl."
Ye Xiao said casually, with a meaningful look flashing in his eyes.
Just as he said.
Ren Tingting is really smart.
Isn’t that just staying in Yizhuang forever?
Look at the entire Renjia Town.
Where is the safest place?
Definitely Yizhuang!
It is precisely because of this that Ren Tingting puts aside her status to stay at the yizhuang. She also helps clean up the house from time to time, and also serves as the maid of the black Rakshasa girl.
She didn't say anything more and silently stepped aside, as if she was afraid of disturbing Ye Xiao's thoughts.
"If this Xuanyuan Arrow has really been hidden by someone, then this person must understand the power of the Xuanyuan Arrow, but why would he hide it? What is the purpose? Could it be that this Xuanyuan Arrow is a double-edged sword? If you use it correctly, the benefits are amazing, but if you use it wrongly, it will cause misfortune and even kill yourself?"
Ye Xiao began to make calculations and guesses.
Immediately afterwards, he asked Uncle Jiu about the legend related to Xuanyuan Arrow in this town.
"Do those who get the Xuanyuan Arrow have a smooth journey and rise step by step?"
A question popped up in Ye Xiao's mouth.
"According to the legends of Ren's town, those people have indeed risen through the ranks step by step. With their unparalleled archery skills, they have been appreciated and reused, but they all have one thing in common, their life span is short and they don't live long!"
Uncle Jiu frowned his unibrow and began to think in his mind before speaking slowly.
As he spoke, his eyes lit up, "If someone in Renjia Town has accidentally obtained this Xuanyuan Arrow, that person will most likely have a short lifespan. We can use this to investigate and maybe we can gain something! "
"Uncle Jiu, you and I really have the same ideas!"
Ye Xiao's face also glowed with joy.
Immediately.
Uncle Jiu directly led Ye Xiao to start rummaging through boxes and cabinets, just to find a roster.
It's not just Yizhuang, it's a morgue.
But every corpse of the deceased is registered in Yizhuang.
…
Generally speaking, the age at death, cause of death, etc. are also recorded.
Although the record is not particularly detailed, it is very helpful and valuable to Ye Xiao and Uncle Jiu.
It only takes a blink of an eye.
In an old wooden cabinet, Uncle Jiu took out a list of names.
He held these rosters in the palm of his hand like a treasure.
"This list of deceased persons has been recorded over the past ten years."
Uncle Jiu explained.
"good!"
Ye Xiao nodded.
The two began to read the roster carefully page after page.
Zhang Miao, female, aged 25, accidentally fell into the water and drowned.
Li Jing, male, 50 years old, tripped over a stone, fell on his head, and bled to death.
Wang Er, a seven-year-old male, had been frail and sick since he was a child. Later, he developed difficulty breathing and even went into shock. Rescue efforts failed and he died.
…
In the process of reading, Ye Xiao also saw a variety of ways to die.
Some people died after tripping over a stone, some even died from being smashed by a stone on the ground and bleeding, and some died from drowning or fire.
Wait, in short, there are so many ways to die.
However, Ye Xiao did not see any clues from these ways of death.
"rustle!"
He continued to flip through the roster in his hand, his eyes still so focused that he wasn't even slightly distracted.
Now it has reached the point of great urgency.
Whether it's life or death, I'm afraid we'll have to see it this time.
Apart from that, Ye Xiaozhen had no other choice.
So many people have been sent to look for it.
We also found various kinds of arrows, but the results were that they were all wrong.
This Xuanyuan Arrow is really hidden too deep.
A little later.
Ye Xiao's eyes stayed on the person on the dead list.
Tie Long, male, forty years old, died of a strange disease.
"Uncle Jiu, what strange disease does this Iron Dragon have?"
Ye Xiao pointed to the list of the deceased, also wanting to ask Uncle Jiu if he had any impression of the deceased Tie Long.
For a moment, Uncle Jiu stared at Tie Long's name and began to fall into deep thought.
Suddenly, a series of memories flooded into his mind.
"If it were anyone else, after so many years, Uncle Jiu might not have any impression. But this Tie Long is different. Tie Long is a hunter in the village. His archery skills are pretty good and he can always hunt many prey. This It also made his family live a happy life, but one day, Tie Long stopped hunting and always stayed at home. It was said that he was ill."
"And later, when I saw Tie Long again, he had become a cold corpse. There were no injuries on the whole body, which was very strange and incredible. But Tie Long died, and the place of death was very bizarre."
Uncle Jiu spoke slowly.
Speaking of this past event, he also felt that it was very mysterious and bizarre.
But now, I think about Xuanyuan Arrow, which can make mortals have unparalleled archery skills.
And this Tielong also possesses such archery skills, does it mean that... the Xuanyuan Arrow fell into Tielong's hands?
The more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.
…
He felt like he understood something.
"Ye Ze, could it be that this Iron Dragon once obtained the Xuanyuan Arrow, and it was because of the Xuanyuan Arrow that he got such a strange disease?"
Uncle Jiu's face was filled with joy, and he felt like he was finally rewarded after all the hardships.
Are you finally looking for another magical weapon of the Yellow Emperor in ancient mythology - the Xuanyuan Arrow?
"I'm afraid that's it. Xuanyuan Arrow, such a magical weapon, if mortals want to control it, they will definitely have to pay a price. And this price is probably life span! And Tielong obviously can't control it even if he has Xuanyuan Arrow. If the Xuanyuan Arrow is fully utilized, it can only be used for hunting at most. Perhaps Tielong never expected that he would get the Xuanyuan Arrow!"
Ye Xiao expressed his inner guess.
It's time to talk about this.
He was absolutely certain.
Xuanyuan Arrow was obtained by Tie Long.
On the spot, the two hit it off immediately, and without any hesitation, they put on the raincoats made of coir raincoats and coarse cloth umbrellas, and hurried out.
"Tap tap tap!"
As the two stepped on the road, a lot of rain splashed on the road, all of which splashed onto their legs and feet.
But the two of them were still moving forward quickly in the rain.
Things cannot be delayed any longer.
Thanks to Uncle Jiu's knowledge of the road, walking along the road was extremely smooth.
Even during the conversation with Uncle Jiu, Ye Xiao learned more about Iron Dragon.
For example, Tielong also has a son, Tieniu.
Tieniu is a rickshaw driver who possesses brute strength and is also very sincere and honest.
In response, Ye Xiao nodded in agreement.
He had met Tieniu before. He was indeed a tall and powerful guy, but he was very honest.
And in such a world where people cannibalize people, honest people will never gain any advantages or benefits.
That's it.
Tieniu Cai can only be a rickshaw puller.
Tieniu is a typical low-level commoner.
Ye Xiao thought silently in his heart.
About one stick of incense time passed.
Uncle Jiu finally led Ye Xiao to the door of a private house.
After taking a closer look, he could see this private house. The door was a bit old and shabby, and even the roof Ye Xiao guessed would be leaking.
Tieniu's life was really unsatisfactory!
Ye Xiao sighed in his heart.
"Dongdong!"
Ye Xiao didn't think much about it and knocked on the door gently.
I just knocked on the door several times, but didn't see any movement.
no one there?
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
It was at this time.
The old wooden door opened with a creak.
In an instant, an old man with white hair and a kind face came into his field of vision.
The old man also held an umbrella in his hand, but the umbrella had a few holes in it, which also caused a lot of rainwater to get on her body.
"Old lady, use my umbrella to cover the rain. I'm so sorry for disturbing you."
Ye Xiao looked apologetic and quickly used his umbrella to cover the old woman in front of him from the rain.
It also shows respect for the elderly and love for the young.
Even Uncle Jiu looked apologetic.
…
"Dear guests, you are too polite."
The old lady had white hair and sunken eye sockets. After noticing Uncle Jiu's figure with her dark eyes, she also showed a very excited look, "Priest Exorcist, please come inside, please come inside quickly."
Ye Xiao and Uncle Jiu nodded heavily.
Not long after, the two of them also entered this private house, but they could see that the private house was indeed very dilapidated.
But even so, housing people is still not a problem.
"Master Exorcist, and this gentleman, I hope you will forgive me if I have not treated you well."
The old lady showed a very polite side, and her eyes looking at Uncle Jiu became more and more excited.
Ye Xiao could tell that this old lady was definitely someone who believed in ghosts and gods.
Then he said that there were a lot of ghostly things posted on the walls of this house.
"Old lady, we came here to tell you something important."
Uncle Jiu said with a serious expression, "This matter is related to the life and death of everyone in the entire Renjia Town!"
"ah!"
The old lady couldn't help but be shocked, and she didn't expect that something big was going to happen in Renjia Town again.
She was full of surprise, but she soon calmed down.
She has lived to be sixty or seventy years old.
She was content to live to this age, and she had long regarded life and death as very indifferent.
The only thing she was worried about was that her grandson Tieniu didn't have a wife yet, which really made her worried to death.
Too.
This is the condition of their family.
Too bad, too bad.
With a broken house and no land, what kind of parents would marry their daughter to their Tieniu family?
Thinking of these, the old lady felt painful in her heart.
Uncle Jiu also told the old lady about the Xuanyuan Arrow in a concise and easy-to-understand way.
"Old lady, have you ever remembered that your son Tie Long got something extraordinary back then?"
Uncle Jiu asked solemnly, but his mood was uneasy.
If this clue is broken.
I'm afraid I'll have to search again, and I don't know how much time I'll waste.
But now the crisis is imminent.
What time do they have to waste?
"Sure enough, it's that kind of thing! It's that kind of thing! It killed the old woman's son! The old woman told him back then that that thing was very extraordinary and not something ordinary people like us can have. But he just didn't Listen, I thought I had gotten some good treasure, thought I had some great luck. But in the end, I was dead, dead!"
Suddenly, an expression of sudden realization appeared on the old lady's wrinkled face.
seem.
At this moment she finally came to her senses.
Back then, why was her son Tie Long's death so bizarre?
It must be related to something like that!
This time.
Ye Xiao and Uncle Jiu couldn't help but look at each other.
The hard work paid off, and a breakthrough was finally made!
"Old lady, where is that thing?"
Ye Xiao and Uncle Jiu said in unison.
"Master Exorcist, and this gentleman, that thing is very unclean! Even if he got it, the old woman's son would die inexplicably, because it seems to be alive, sucking human blood..."
The old lady's small round eyes kept flashing with fear, as if she was also very scared about that thing.
finally.
She still said that thing, but it had been hidden by her.
Originally, she planned to bring it into the coffin board.
But now, if only it can save Renjia Town, then... we can only take it out and let it see the light of day again!
Soon, the old lady took out a wine jar.
The top of the wine jar is wrapped with a thick layer of coarse cloth.
"Swish!"
The old lady slowly opened the coarse cloth strips on the wine jar, her movements were very slow, her eyes were very uneasy, but she still bit her teeth that were about to fall out, and with a cruel move, she took off all the coarse cloth strips on the top of the wine jar. .
but.
Ye Xiao and Uncle Jiu did not see anything hidden in the wine jar.
It was pitch black and they couldn't see anything. They couldn't see anything at all.
The old lady also stretched out a pair of old hands, ready to reach into the wine jar to get the weird thing.
"Old lady, is there any danger?"
Ye Xiao quickly asked with concern.
