"Oh my God! What is that!"
Qi Ao looked in the direction of the speaker's finger and saw a black cloud in the sky pressing down on them. When he looked closer, he saw that it was a large group of flying insects.
Such a large group of flying insects gathered together, so densely packed that it made people shudder.
"fly?!"
Zhu Yuanyu's eyesight was very good. He could clearly see the true appearance of these flying insects from a distance, and the hairs all over his body stood up.
Instantly he thought of the maggots at Yuelai Inn - the larvae of flies.
Seeing a large group of black flies buzzing towards him, Zhu Yuanyu immediately retreated into the room and closed the door.
The others also came to their senses and quickly ran to close the window that had been blown open by the wind. They were worried that the window would be blown open again, so they did not dare to leave the window even half a step.
After a while, flies clicked on the door and window.
The window was made of paper, and soon it couldn't hold on anymore - small holes were opened in the window paper by flies, and flies squirmed in through the holes.
The person who was standing by the window was instantly disgusted and fled to the inner room. Then he ran out with a look on his face that he had eaten shit, followed by a dozen flies buzzing behind him.
Zhu Yuanyu was not afraid of these flies whose combat power was five, but the scene was really chilling, so he chose to go back inside to hide.
At this time, when he saw that the flies were threatening to break through the city wall, he took action decisively.
As soon as the lightning passed, the flies were burned to ashes and scattered on the ground.
Thinking that the long-term pain would be worse than the short-term pain, Zhu Yuanyu opened the door suddenly, and saw thousands of flies swarming in. The lightning swept outwards, and the overwhelming flies disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a stench that seemed to be... The strong smell of burnt meat seemed to be the smell of stinking ditches, and then it was blown away by the wind.
"Where did so many flies come from? It's terrible..."
Cui'er murmured while covering her chest, her pretty face was pale, which made the palm prints on her face appear more clearly.
Zhu Yuanyu remained silent, feeling that the matter was not over yet. At a glance, this group of flies knew that someone or a demon was behind it. One or two were not scary, but a dense group was surrounded. In case they were stung by mutated flies. What should I do if I catch a strange disease in one bite?
He wouldn't take the risk.
It’s just that the flies have been eliminated, and it’s still not possible to confirm whether there are spikes.
The bright moon came out again in the sky, and Li Zhuangzhuang stepped out of the room with someone on his back. The little scholar followed behind him like a little daughter-in-law.
Zhu Yuanyu took one look, his face changed, and he walked to Li Zhuangzhuang in a few steps, "Put him down."
When the person was placed on the ground, everyone gasped.
The moonlight was very bright, illuminating the face of the man on the ground clearly. He saw that the man's face was covered with wriggling maggots. Most of the maggots were blood red because of the blood.
The man seemed to have passed out, but that was okay, otherwise he might not have been able to withstand such torture when he was awake.
A normal person would be scared crazy to watch countless maggots multiplying and crawling on his face, with a few falling into his neck from time to time, and feeling the itching.
"vomit--"
Cui Er ran to the side and vomited.
Affected by her, several other people also began to feel nauseated and moved away.
Li Zhuangzhuang looked at the squirming maggots and felt that his neck seemed to be itching. While slapping his back and shaking out his clothes, he shouted anxiously: "Master, master! Please show me if there are any of these disgusting things behind you." ! I always feel itchy! Did I get it too?"
Qi Ao happened to be next to him. He narrowed his eyes after hearing his words and said, "Let me show you."
At this time, Li Zhuangzhuang no longer had any scruples. He took off his shirt in a few moments, revealing his strong arms. He held the clothes in his hands and shook them, shaking out a few maggots.
Li Zhuangzhuang suddenly felt that his scalp was itching. He dropped his clothes and started scratching his head, making his hair a mess in an instant.
Qi Ao circled around him, slapping him from time to time. The pain made Li Zhuangzhuang grin and complain: "What are you doing with such strong hands! It hurts me to death!"
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
Qi Ao struck harder and explained expressionlessly: "I'm helping you kill the bugs, and I won't care about you anymore."
"Ouch! Be gentle! Are you really killing bugs?" Li Zhuangzhuang muttered with a bitter look on his face: "Who wants you to take charge of this? I want to change someone! I obviously called you Young Master, you boy Why are you here to join in the fun!"
Qi Ao curled up the corner of his mouth, slapped him a few times, then stopped, "Okay, no more."
Li Zhuangzhuang felt burning pain all over his body and no trace of itching disappeared. He glanced at Qi Ao angrily and walked to Zhu Yuanyu's side silently.
"Go back to the inn and wash your head properly."
Zhu Yuanyu glanced at his chicken coop-like hair, fearing that he would see a bug emerging from it.
"!!!" Li Zhuangzhuang's scalp tightened and he wished he could bury his head in the water right now.
Cui'er, who had just returned from vomiting and heard this, moved slightly away.
After glancing at her, Zhu Yuanyu knelt down.
There were probably too many maggots on the man's face, and there was only so much space on the face, so the maggots that didn't occupy their spots fell down and quickly got into the man's collar.
Zhu Yuanyu even saw that one or two maggots had crawled on the man's exposed palms. He didn't know whether they crawled from the ground or crawled from his neck along his body.
He flicked the maggots away with his fingers and exploded before they hit the ground, splashing out a few drops of slurry.
"He, he won't die, will he?!" the little scholar stammered, with tears faintly visible in the corners of his eyes.
Well, he looks just like a bullied little rabbit, with red eyes and a red nose, so pitiful - Zhu Yuanyu glanced at the little scholar and thought to himself.
The little scholar touched his face nervously, "I-is there something on my face?!"
Zhu Yuanyu shook his head.
"Is there any way you can get rid of these...?" the relieved little scholar asked in a low voice.
Then he remembered that the injury on his classmate's face was caused by the other party, and his eyes suddenly dimmed.
"Yes." Zhu Yuanyu curled his lips.
The little scholar's eyes lit up and he looked over expectantly.
A small stick was handed over.
Little scholar:? ? ?
Zhu Yuanyu grinned, bared his teeth and said with a smile: "Take it, pick out the maggots."
The little scholar was almost blinded by the white teeth. He hesitated and silently took the stick.
Where did this little tree stick come from?
The little scholar looked around, but there was not even a tree.
As if he knew the doubts in his heart, Zhu Yuanyu said lightly: "If you have time to worry about other things, why not seize the time to pick out the maggots? Otherwise, don't blame me if someone dies."
The little scholar trembled, forcing himself to turn his head in the direction of his classmate, half-closing his eyes, and poked straight at him with the stick.
The corner of Zhu Yuanyu's mouth twitched, and he watched speechlessly as the small tree stick was inserted into the man's nostril. The maggots around him were disturbed and scattered a little bit, but they soon gathered back and even climbed up the small tree. stick.
"You're quite powerful. You can kill a few with your eyes closed."
When he heard someone praising him, the little scholar was a little excited. He opened his eyes and threw away the stick with a loud sound.
"I thought you'd have to wait until the maggots crawled up the stick and onto your hand to find out!"
Zhu Yuanyu sneered and looked at the small tree stick that fell to the ground not far away. The maggots were squirming and rolling on the ground, and he stepped on it with one foot.
Qi Ao retracted his feet, bent down to pick up the small stick, and walked back.
"Throw it away and pick it up yourself." In an indifferent tone.
The little scholar trembled all over, looked up at the man who was exuding air-conditioning, and obediently took the small tree stick that was handed over again.
This time my eyes were open, but what was going on with that hand that kept shaking?
"Oh my god...oh my god...oh my god..."
The little scholar kept chanting this sentence as if reciting sutras. Zhu Yuanyu was so annoyed when he heard it that he snatched the small tree stick with his hands, squeezed his buttocks, and said in an evil voice: "I'll do it!"
The little scholar couldn't squat properly, half of his butt touched the ground, and he looked confused.
Qi Ao didn't like him, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed the little scholar. He was lifted up again, still looking confused.
"Tsk." Qi Ao glanced at him condescendingly and carried him aside like a chicken.
When Qi Ao came back, he saw that the maggots on the man's face had been picked up to the ground, spinning in circles as if he had lost his way, and humming aimlessly.
Qi Ao glanced at Zhu Yuanyu in surprise, this hand speed was too fast!
Feeling his gaze, Zhu Yuanyu turned around, raised his face and smiled slightly. The faint moonlight shone on his face, giving it a soft luster.
Qi Ao was stunned, and his heart beat slightly faster.
The two looked at each other for a while. Zhu Yuanyu felt inexplicably uncomfortable and turned his gaze back to the ground, as if he was staring at the person on the ground to make a flower bloom.
Qi Ao grinned and suddenly felt a little happy.
"When can we leave? This place is weird and weird. I don't know what we will encounter if we delay it any longer!" someone complained.
Zhu Yuanyu looked over and saw the woman from before.
Seeing that he noticed her, the woman shrank back, and the man standing next to her took a step forward.
Qi Ao snorted coldly and said mockingly: "No one is stopping you, and your feet are on your body. If you want to walk, can't you walk by yourself?"
The woman had a look of complaint on her face, but she didn't dare to say anything louder. She just muttered——
"Who are you! You know that I don't know the road, and who knows if there will be other ghosts. Since you have saved me, why don't you save others to the end! What's the point of leaving people halfway!"
The woman thought her voice was very low, but she didn't know that Qi Ao, a martial arts practitioner, had very sensitive ears and could hear what she said clearly, and her face suddenly turned cold.
When the man saw Qi Ao looking over coldly, he immediately felt bad and said quickly: "My sister is not sensible. I have offended you so much. I hope you can forgive me!"
Qi Ao didn't want to argue too much with a female prostitute, but she had offended her master and could not let him go in vain, so he sarcastically said: "The mouth is for speaking human words, not for imitating that villain's nonsense." Gen! Keep your mouth shut, there will be no next time!"
These words almost made the woman's nose crooked with anger.
Zhu Yuanyu curled up his lips, showed a smile, and waved to the little scholar, "Come here."
The little scholar came over aggrievedly.
"Take it and bandage him."
Zhu Yuanyu pulled out a strip of white cloth like a magic trick and stuffed it into the little scholar's hand.
Stretching his legs, he stood up.
Maybe he had been squatting for too long and his legs were numb. He stood stiffly and did not dare to move.
It takes a while to wait for the paralysis to wear off.
Qi Ao, who had been paying attention to him, immediately noticed something strange and hurriedly came over and knelt down on one knee to squeeze his leg without hesitation.
"Is your leg numb? Please give me a squeeze."
Gently holding Zhu Yuanyu's calf with his thick palm, he kneaded it gently and gently. Through the thin fabric, he could even feel the warm power rhythmically transmitted into his heart, and then He quickly touched his little heart.
Under the bright moonlight, Zhu Yuanyu could clearly see the palm attached to his calf. The fingers were clearly articulated, slender and strong; the fingers were neat, indicating that the owner had his nails regularly trimmed and was a clean person. people.
Zhu Yuanyu thought about a lot of things randomly, and in the end he didn't even notice that his legs were no longer numb.
At this time, Qi Ao was also immersed in his own fantasy. Just now, that charming dream appeared in his mind.
His most beloved master was stripped naked by him, lying naked on a gorgeous mink fur, with soft skin, soft mink fur, and a clean body as limp as mud, with a look of "anything you can pick from" "The erotic scene.
He tightly grasped his master's snow-white slender calf with a forbearing look on his face. It wasn't until he let go that he realized that he had left red marks on his master's calf, which was very shocking against the flawless skin.
Qi Ao was startled and suddenly came to his senses. The hand holding his leg felt hot.
It happened that Zhu Yuanyu finally realized that his legs were no longer numb, shrank his feet and said, "Okay."
Hearing the light "Okay" from above his head, Qi Ao subconsciously let go of his hand, and then his face began to turn red. Fortunately, he lowered his head as if to hide it, and no one noticed.
Zhu Yuanyu looked around and finally caught the fox demon huddled in a dark corner. He waved to him, and even though the fox demon was extremely reluctant, he still attracted him.
"I don't know the road, please lead the way." He said calmly.
The fox demon Xiaowei floated in one direction as if resigned to her fate. At first she saw the flies coming and thought she could be saved. Unexpectedly, the demon cultivator just sent some minions over and didn't even show up. She didn't know it was because of fear. She still had other plans, but either way she was depressed.
And her good sister, who ran off to find food somewhere, has not returned yet. Otherwise, with the strength of their sisters, there would be no Taoist priests who could not be dealt with.
Although the fox demon Xiaowei often quarrels with her sister, she is extremely confident in her sister's strength.
If Zhu Yuanyu knew that the fox demon in front of him had such an idea, he would definitely die of joy.
Maybe the two sisters will be kept company by then.
It's a pity that mind reading is not a common thing. So far, it is not said that he does not have it, and he has not even heard of anyone who has it.
Walking along the corridor, everyone finally left the mansion.
Several other people turned around and left without saying a word, without even saying goodbye.
Zhu Yuanyu looked at the little scholar who was still standing there in confusion. Seeing his confused look, he said, "Where is your place to stay?"
The little scholar blinked slowly.
Zhu Yuanyu sighed, not wanting to waste time with him, "Let's go back to Yuelai Inn first."
Then he thought of the fox demon. He didn't even give him a chance to resist, so he wrapped it in a talisman and threw it into Jade Perry.
It's better now. Although they can't see or feel each other, the two sisters are finally reunited.
"I almost forgot again, you haven't eaten yet! Let's find a place to have... a late night snack."
Zhu Yuanyu chose a direction based on his feeling and took the lead.
The little scholar saw that he was the only one left there, and even his classmates had been carried away, so he quickly followed him.
After spending a lot of time in the big house, it was already getting late, and there were a lot fewer pedestrians on the street. They walked a few streets, and finally solved the problem of hunger and satiety at a stall.
"The wontons made by the boss are good! They are just too thin, and they are not even enough for me to eat." Li Zhuangzhuang did not forget to express his opinion while he was eating hard. The wontons in his big bowl were quickly reduced one by one at a speed visible to the naked eye. .
The stall owner smiled dryly and kept looking at the person next to Li Zhuangzhuang.
"This little brother is..."
"I'm sick. The medical clinic is closed at night, so I have to send him to the medical clinic tomorrow for the doctor to take a look." Zhu Yuanyu said casually.
"Oh, that's it...the medical clinic is indeed closed now, and I can only wait until tomorrow if I want to see a doctor..."
Although the stall owner was confused, he was wise enough not to ask any more questions. After finishing their business, he had to close the stall and go home to rest. In this world, people who are talkative and meddlesome will not end well.
Zhu Yuanyu looked at the thin stall owner and smiled.
After everyone had eaten and drank enough, the boss smiled and counted them, and said cheerfully: "There are ten bowls of wontons in total, sixty cents."
Zhu Yuanyu nodded, took out one and a half taels of broken silver from his purse, and handed it to the stall owner.
The stall owner looked embarrassed, "This - sir, look, this is a small business in a small shop, and I can't afford the scraps of silver you gave me!"
"There's no need to look for it. I'll treat the rest as a reward for you." Zhu Yuanyu waved his hand, stood up and left.
The stall owner wanted to chase after him, "What's wrong with this! It's too much! You'd better take it back, sir!"
Li Zhuangzhuang picked up the person next to him and said angrily: "I'll give it to you, just keep it! It's so troublesome!" After a few steps, he caught up with Zhu Yuanyu.
The little scholar who fell last again looked blankly at the stall owner, blinked his eyes, and said to himself: "Will you be miserable if you have too much money?"
No matter what the stall owner thought after hearing this, he chased Zhu Yuanyu and the others.
The stall owner was left alone to worry. Finally, he sighed, collected the money and the things in the stall, and went home.
He usually closes the stall very early, and he doesn't know why it was delayed until now tonight, but thinking about the half a tael of silver, the stall owner became happy again.
Niuer likes to eat sweets, so I will buy some maltose when the store across the street opens tomorrow so that I can have a taste of it. I heard that the maltose from that store is quite good.
The stall owner was so happy that he couldn't help but speed up his pace, and the figure pushing the trolley slowly disappeared around the corner of the street.
After eating wontons, the street became completely deserted.
The doors of the shops along the street were closed. In some, only a faint light could be seen through the cracks in the door. That was someone lighting a candle inside, perhaps calculating the day's income.
Returning to the familiar street, Zhu Yuanyu was surprised to find that Yuelai Inn was still crowded with guests even at such a late hour, and it was as lively as during the day.
When he stepped in, Zhu Yuanyu turned his eyes and saw an acquaintance.
He turned his back to Qi Ao and the others behind him and said, "You go up first."
Qi Ao frowned and disagreed: "Master, why don't I stay with you? I won't worry about you being alone."
"That's fine." Zhu Yuanyu agreed gently.
After Li Zhuangzhuang and the others walked up the stairs, Zhu Yuanyu walked closer to the inside.
Qi Ao found that a middle-aged man and a child were sitting there. They looked nothing alike, but the child's big eyes made him look at them a few more times, and then he recognized who the other person was.
Although he had only met him once, Qi Ao had a good memory, and since he was someone who had been close to his master, he would certainly not forget it easily.
"Why are you here, Goudan?"
Zhu Yuanyu said with a smile, but his eyes lost his smile after seeing the maggots on the table.
Goudan raised his head in surprise, "It's you, sir! Why are you here?"
"Why are you asking me instead? Don't eat now, let's talk."
Zhu Yuanyu pressed his chopsticks and smiled slightly.
Goudan was happy when he heard that the young master wanted to chat with him, no matter what he was talking about, so he put down his chopsticks and sat upright, with his head tilted slightly to one side. He looked very interesting.
The shopkeeper sitting next to Goudan sighed in his heart, and put down his chopsticks with the pain of greed - after all, they want to chat, and it would be too rude for you to just eat.
Zhu Yuanyu nodded slightly at the shopkeeper of the tea shop. After smiling, he started chatting with Goudan. Most of the time he was talking, while Goudan was responsible for showing an expression of admiration and asking questions from time to time. A few cute little questions.
While chatting with Goudan, Zhu Yuanyu was also thinking of ways to stop Goudan and his shopkeeper from eating maggots into their stomachs.
After much deliberation, Zhu Yuanyu finally decided to play a big one.
