In the early morning, after Mu Yi finished a set of punches, Xiao Lian, who had been standing aside for a long time, asked with excitement on her face.
This is Mu Yi's third day here. He already knows where he is. It is more than two hundred miles away from Cangzhou City. It is not too far. It is just that this place is relatively remote. It is a small village near the river. There are a total of twenty people in the village.
The families here are all simple and honest, at least that's how Mu Yi felt.
The person who rescued Mu Yi was named Wang Tieniu, and he made a living by fishing. Since the family of five lived in two rooms, Mu Yi could only be placed in Xiaolian's home. Xiaolian and Wang Tieniu were childhood sweethearts, and they had a friendship with each other.
, but because Wang Tieniu's family was in real distress and couldn't even come up with the money for the bride price, Xiao Lian's mother never agreed, and the relationship between the two dragged on.
As for Wang Tieniu, Mu Yi has seen him a few times. He is tall and has a loyal face. Although he does not have great wisdom, he is also somewhat clever. At least his character is not a problem. Otherwise, if he is a person with evil intentions, he may have taken advantage of his wealth.
.
Although Mu Yi didn't have any gold or silver jewelry on him, the three jade boxes, lamps, and bamboos looked like ordinary things at first sight. They could be exchanged for a lot of money if they were sold. When the time came, it would not be his dream to marry Xiao Lian in glory, but he
But he was unwilling to move, and just carried Mu Yi back, endured the sarcastic words, and asked the doctor to treat Mu Yi.
And this kind of person is either really kind and honest, or he has big ambitions. In Mu Yi's view, Tieniu should fall between the two. Although saving him has a kind side, he also hopes that Mu Yi can change his behavior.
In life, Mu Yi could guess his thoughts from the several times he hesitated to speak or even dodged his eyes, but he did not feel disgusted. Repaying kindness was not a shameful thing, it was human nature.
.
"It's okay for now." Mu Yi retracted his fist, calmed down the turbulent energy in his body, and then said.
In the past three days, although he worked hard to recover, because the injury was too serious and there was no panacea, it could only be described as slow. The injuries caused by the power of heaven and earth were even more difficult to deal with, like maggots on the tarsus.
, difficult to clean.
According to Mu Yi's estimation, it would take at least a month or two for him to recover. This was definitely unacceptable to him. Not to mention whether he had that much time, if Ning Wuque came to find him again,
I'm afraid he really has no power to fight back.
So he had to find a way.
"By the way, Brother Mu, I heard from Aunt Wang next door this morning that someone died in the neighboring village." Xiaolian said. In fact, in terms of age, Xiaolian is one year older than Mu Yi, but Mu Yi looks older.
She was more mature, so Xiaolian called her Brother Mu from the beginning, and Mu Yi had no intention of correcting her.
"Dead?" Mu Yi looked at Xiaolian with some surprise, knowing that she must have something ulterior motives. After all, if it was just a normal death, there was no need for her to tell him specifically.
"Well, it is said that he was bitten to death by something unclean." Xiaolian nodded heavily, with a trace of fear on her face.
"Been bitten to death by something?" Mu Yi asked casually, but he didn't take it too seriously. At his level, the life and death of one or two ordinary people would be hard to shake his heart. It's not that he was so cruel.
He is cold-blooded, but he has seen too many people and killed too many people, so he has already become numb.
"It is said to be a zombie." Xiaolian said.
"Zombie?" Mu Yi was a little surprised. It seemed like this kind of thing shouldn't appear around here, right? And if it was really a zombie, how could it only kill one person?
"Yes, the dead man's blood has been sucked dry, just like a mummy. If my mother didn't want me to go, I would have gone to see it." Xiaolian said with some fear and unwillingness.
She doesn't really dare to go, and only she knows that.
"Zombies do not necessarily suck human blood." Mu Yi shook his head, still not interested. In his opinion, instead of wasting time, it is better to recover well, especially before he has no power to protect himself. He has to hide his identity, otherwise he would rather
Wuque didn't come to the door, but it was troublesome to be approached by other martial arts masters.
"Ah, it's not a zombie? What is that? Brother Mu, you are a Taoist priest, you should be able to subjugate and eliminate demons, right?" Xiaolian asked with her big black eyes staring, maybe it was also because of Mu Yi's identity that she was asked
Not much caution.
"I am good at subduing demons, but how can there be so many demons and monsters in this world? On the contrary, humans are scarier than demons." Mu Yi said calmly.
"Really?" Xiaolian's face was full of doubts. Obviously, in her heart, monsters were more terrifying. After all, monsters can eat people.
The next day, another person died in the neighboring village. With the same sign, panic suddenly spread, even to the small village of Xiaolian. After all, the two villages were too close to each other. What if the zombie came here?
manage?
Although I haven't seen the blood-sucking monster yet, according to the judgment of the experienced old people in the village, it was definitely caused by zombies, so many people in neighboring villages have fled to seek refuge with relatives, at least before the zombies were caught.
Don't plan to go back.
Moreover, this incident also alarmed the government, and special detectives came down to investigate the case, which somewhat reassured some people, and this prevented the people in that village from completely escaping.
Even the surrounding villages were trembling with fear, eagerly waiting for the police to catch the zombies, but they were destined to be disappointed, because on the third day, another person was sucked clean by the zombies, but the policemen were not
Any discovery, no one believed those few police officers anymore, and more people fled.
"Brother Mu, do you think zombies will come to us?" Xiaolian asked Mu Yi with a worried look on her face. In fact, her original intention was to ask Mu Yi if he could subjugate demons and eliminate the zombies.
"Probably not." Mu Yi shook his head. After all, he was not a god, so he couldn't tell whether the thing would come. However, for three days in a row, people had their blood sucked out of them, which made him wonder whether the thing was a zombie. It was a pity.
Yes, his health has just started to get better now, and his strength has less than one-tenth recovered, so he is naturally unwilling to take risks. Originally, he still had some demon-slaying talismans on him, but because he fell into the river, all those talismans were ineffective.
As for the Xin Lantern, it can be used, but Mu Yi's current condition is not suitable for doing it, otherwise the injury that he finally recovered will only become more serious, so Mu Yi cannot help but be cruel.
"What if, what if it comes?" Xiaolian still couldn't help but ask. A girl of her age had the most fantasies.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Seeing Xiaolian's appearance, Mu Yi couldn't help but sigh. Although he didn't want to cause trouble, if that thing really came, he definitely couldn't ignore it.
He said that he had to repay the life-saving grace of Xiaolian and Tieniu. Moreover, in the past few days, Tieniu would come to pay his respects almost morning and evening, and he would always bring a big fish when he came.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Mu Yi still knew Tieniu's intentions, but he didn't make any statement and looked like he didn't know.
In the afternoon, Mu Yi woke up from his trance, extinguished the fire lamp, and then sighed inaudibly. The power of heaven and earth was much more difficult to deal with than he imagined. It was almost a luxury to hope to recover in a short time.
It can only be polished bit by bit by dripping water through the stone.
Of course, as the saying goes, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and there will be rewards after suffering. After these few days of recovery, Mu Yi can basically be sure of one thing, that is, with the recovery, the power in his body also seems to be crushed, and it will be restored again.
After polishing it, it became more and more pure. Even when it was controlled, it became easier to control. It can move with the heart and move with the Qi.
However, although the recovery was slow, Mu Yi was not in a hurry. He was just a little worried about Da Nu's condition. After all, without him and Nian Nuer around, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not lose his temper. Fortunately, with Mo Ruyan around, it would be okay if he thought about it.
There won't be any big problem.
As for the others, it is not a bad idea to disappear for a while, just so that he can calm down and polish his state of mind. Starting from the descent, the smooth journey will inevitably make him a little proud. If things go on like this, he will inevitably swell and fall down sooner or later.
Fortunately, he was not proud for long before he was woken up by Ning Wuque. Fortunately, he was blessed twice in the Tomb of King Xian and obtained Nanming Lihuo. Otherwise, with the strength he had just entered the Tomb of King Xian, even if he used Liu Ding
It is impossible for the Liujia Talisman to escape from Ning Wuque's hands.
This is probably because the ignorant are fearless. Fortunately, his luck is not bad.
Mu Yi did not think about that battle anymore, but took the jade box on the side. In the past few days, he had not touched the jade box, not even the golden bamboo slip, because he did not want these foreign objects to interfere with it.
own state of mind.
Fortunately, now that he has completely controlled it, he doesn't have to worry about anything anymore, so he also started to check the harvest this time. In comparison, he definitely made a lot of money from the King's Tomb this time, because he didn't expect to really rob it at first.
When it comes to the seven techniques of the Yin Fu Book, even just one of the seven techniques is enough to excite him for a long time.
The jade box was sealed very well. After nearly two thousand years, you could vaguely see something inside, which should be a book. So Mu Yi carefully opened the jade box and concentrated on it. Once the book destroyed itself,
, he needs to write down the contents in the shortest possible time.
This was one of the reasons why he hadn't touched the jade box before.
When I opened the jade box, there was no musty smell as expected, but a fragrance that shocked people. Moreover, it was not a book inside, but a thick roll of animal skin.
But I thought it was wrong. How could there be paper in that era?
Mu Yi shook his head, and still carefully took out the thick roll of animal skin. The tentacles were cold and had an obvious touch, but also had a hint of flexibility.
Mu Yi did not hesitate and spread it out in front of him (To be continued)
