Guanzhong Tomb Robbery Notes

Chapter 172: The Undying, Silent Miaowan Village

Cui Hao looked down for a long time.

He shook his head and said, "There are no bugs."

"Wang Hu, Nian Zi, didn't you see it carefully?"

"Old Su, what's going on with you?"

After Wang Hu and Shi Nianzi carefully checked, they said in unison, "We were definitely not mistaken. What was pulled out were indeed insects, and there were a lot of them!"

Old Man Su stretched his neck to look at the place where he had just squatted.

His expression instantly turned extremely ugly: "I, there are bugs in my poop too!"

Only Cui Hao and I had diarrhea, which seemed to be related to the curse on our backs.

And our diarrhea symptoms were much milder than theirs.

The problem was solved by just squatting for a while.

The three of them continued to push until they could no longer drain the water, and then they stood up like weak shrimps, holding on to the tree.

"I feel so weak. I have no energy left in my body."

"Master Chen, we won't die, right?" Wang Hu asked nervously.

Pulling out bugs can be a big deal or a small one.

Ordinary parasites can be cured by taking some anthelmintics, but poisonous insects can be fatal.

I looked at the worm that Wang Hu pulled out.

Densely packed, slender white bugs churned and squirmed, looking a bit like the maggots swarming in a dry toilet in summer.

The insects squirmed on the ground for a while, and gradually stopped moving.

It looked like they were all dead.

Shi Nianzi came over with unsteady steps: "It's true that a brave man can't stand three rounds of diarrhea. Now he has no strength at all."

"That bastard is truly despicable. He used underhanded tactics against us."

"Next time I see him, I'll make him feel the pain of being stabbed."

Although his words were harsh, he almost ran out of strength to speak.

The weak and feeble voice did not reveal any ruthlessness at all.

I glanced at Miaowan Village.

The direction that man ran was Miaowan Village. It was probably him who planted the poisonous insect among Han Gaotian and the others.

The "he" that Su Tiansheng mentioned should be this person.

However, the cat ghost in Su Tiansheng's body should be a wizard's trick. As a Gu Master, could he also use wizard's magic?

"Let's find a place to rest."

"I'll ask Taoist Master Zhang to show you guys tomorrow."

Considering that everyone's legs were weak from stretching and they had no strength to walk, they naturally could not take the risk of going to Miaowan Village.

We found a sheltered valley to rest.

Wang Hu and the other two were restless all night long, and they would run out to squat in the toilet from time to time.

At daybreak, all three of them had pale faces and chapped lips, and needed help even to stand up.

This is obviously dehydration.

If you don't find a way to get treatment, it might really cost you your life.

The nearest village is Miaowan Village.

Miaowan Village is also the most convenient place to seek medical treatment and medicine.

But Miaowan Village is the most unsafe place.

"Master Chen, I'm almost dying."

"For the sake of our friendship, I'd like to ask you to take good care of my son Mengzi and my two grandchildren."

Old man Su took my hand and entrusted me with something, as if he was giving me his last words.

As he spoke, tears began to flow uncontrollably.

"I know you are a man of great ability."

"If possible, please save my uncle."

I patted his hand.

Comforting him, he said, "You won't die. I'll find medicine for you right away."

"Mouse, take good care of them."

Cui Hao grabbed my arm and said, "Brother! Where are you going to find medicine? Are you going to Miaowan Village?"

"That village is too dangerous!"

"I suggest we go back and find another village, hire some horse and mule carts, and take them to the regional hospital for treatment."

This is a safe approach.

But it takes too much time.

And they are not sure whether the local hospitals can treat their diseases.

The reason I took the risk to go to Miaowan Village to seek medical treatment was that I thought Taoist Master Zhang might come back.

Now, whether it is to save them or to deal with the mysterious old man from last night, we need the help of Taoist Master Zhang.

"Don't worry, that guy was scared away when he saw me last night."

"The curse on us is now a talisman."

"So there's no danger."

Under my insistence, Cui Hao could only nod helplessly: "Be careful."

"Definitely be careful."

I thought about it, took out the seven-star nails from my bag and put them in my pocket.

He then held the brocade box containing the spirit-calling bell in his arms.

If you really encounter something evil, these two things might be helpful.

I walked towards Miaowan Village alone.

After about twenty minutes, we walked into the village.

The village was dead silent, with every household locking their doors and windows, as if there was no one in the entire village.

But the last time I came, everyone in the village got up very early.

They light a fire and cook early in the morning, and then go up the mountain and down the field to work after dinner. It has a special flavor of home.

It seems that something big happened in Miaowan Village last night.

I walked cautiously towards the residence of Taoist Priest Zhang at the end of the village.

Every few steps you take, you should observe the people living on both sides.

Suddenly, the half-open door of a house came into my sight.

The doors of dozens of houses we passed by were all closed.

Only this one is half-closed!

As the saying goes, when something is unusual, there must be something wrong. What is different about this family?

I thought as I walked towards that house.

"Is anyone there?" I called into the door.

Crunch!

Snapped!

dong dong dong.

As I shouted, a series of sounds came from the room.

This is even more abnormal.

"Is anyone in the room?" I asked knowingly.

dong dong dong...

The thumping sound suddenly became much quieter, mixed with faint sobs.

It seemed like someone started crying out of fear.

She was afraid that crying would expose herself, so she covered her mouth tightly and let out weak sobs.

I pushed open the door.

He didn't rush in, but looked inside from the door.

There was no one in the room, only a square table, two benches, and two cabinets, one tall and one short.

On the square table were placed oil lamps, black porcelain bowls, and water jars.

The tall cabinets and the low cabinets looked old, with many potholes and cracks on the surface.

But the tall cabinet was shaking slightly.

The thumping and sobbing sounds came from the closet.

"Come out, I know you're in the closet."

After I finished speaking, the cabinet suddenly stopped shaking.

The sound inside also disappeared instantly.

The room was dead silent, as if the sound just now had never occurred.

I didn't have the patience to wait any longer, so I kicked the cabinet door.

Boom!

As soon as the cabinet door opened a crack, it was firmly grabbed by the hand inside.

Then a crying voice came from the closet: "I don't know anything, I didn't see anything!"

"Please let me go, please let me go!"

The voice sounds familiar.

It seems like I heard this person's voice last night.

I thought about it for a moment and recalled whose voice it was.

It’s the Wu Gengsheng who was scolded by Gangtou last night!

"Wu Gengsheng, come out."

"If you don't come out, I'll set the house on fire."

"No, don't set the fire!"

Wu Gengsheng cried out, "Let me go, let me go, it wasn't me who caused the coffin to fall to the ground!"

"Bao'er, please, for the sake of catching a hedgehog for you to play with, please spare me!"

"I'm Lao Zhang's friend. He asked me to save you." I said loudly.

Wu Gengsheng's plea for mercy came to an abrupt end.

Half a minute later, he finally pushed the cabinet door open a crack.

He peeked out through the crack and asked, "Are you really Lao Zhang's friend?"

"Really are."

"Tell me quickly what happened in the village last night."
