The two entered the village through the main entrance, and at the entrance of the village there was an archway made of stone pillars. On the right side of the archway, there was a huge boulder with the words "Stone Forest Village" engraved on it. Hanging down with water stains, it looks like the stone is bleeding, making the scalp numb.

The main road into the village was silent, amidst the moss, mud and mess, only a flock of crows were pecking at the gray-skinned corpse.

The wind blew, and three or two yellow paper rolls fell quietly in the air. Shen Yi made a silent gesture to Yi Qingchen, and the two of them stepped into it with light steps. However, the soles of their feet were muddy on their boots, and every time they lifted their feet, they would Some water sounds are unavoidable, and footprints will be clearly left on it.

Yi Qingchen felt something was wrong, so he wanted to run away, and as soon as Fang hurried away, a corpse rushed out of the house and rushed towards Yi Qingchen, Yi Qingchen was so frightened that he hurriedly stopped, and the corpse seemed to suddenly Losing the target, he only lingered in place for a moment, then went back to the house.

Shen Yi slowly caught up with Yi Qingchen, pulled his sleeves and said, "These corpses can only see things moving, but the day is slower than the night, so it doesn't hurt to walk a little slower during the day , you can’t do that at night.”

Yi Qingchen learned the previous lesson and took every step carefully. The two of them walked around the village like a leisurely stroll. During the period, there were occasional corpses passing by them. The two held their breath in time. The corpse man didn't notice them either.

After wandering around, but found no useful information, Yi Qingchen suggested to go deeper, but Shen Yi shook his head and said, "It rained not long ago, and the Earth Temple was flooded. Fangshuitan is left. Although the sun is in full swing, it will take several days for the accumulated water to recede. There is a saying among the villagers that the water in the pond will not be truly gone until the cinnabar on the stone tablet at the entrance of the village is dry. If you don’t believe me , it’s okay to take a look.”

Yi Qingchen followed Shen Yi to the depths, the two passed through a canyon about half a mile long, there were no houses along the way, only strange gray stone vines climbing on the cliff, driving thin Cicada wing flower.

Yi Qingchen walked among them, and occasionally looked up at the sky between the gaps, always felt that the mountain seemed familiar, thought about it, but couldn't remember where he saw it, so he simply leaned closer to the mountain wall and looked at the weird flower. After a while, the right hand barely broke off a flower, and blood began to gurgle from the broken part of the vine, and the flower on the hand withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When Shen Yi saw it, she reached out and took the dried flower in Yi Qingchen's hand. With a light blow, the dried flower turned into foam and dispersed with the wind. She explained, "I wrote about this flower in the book "Ancient Poisons". I have seen it, it is said that it is a thing of the demon clan, it needs human blood to support, and when the flowers bloom, they will release dense miasma, and not a single grass will grow within ten miles."

Yi Qingchen looked at the vines, feeling novelty, "Ten li? This book is exaggerating."

Shen Yi shook her head, and pointed to a place on the cliff with Yi Qingchen, "The bloodstone vines always grow in one piece, and the miasma released will be more, so it is called 'ten miles', but right now this place only grows One tree, maybe the climate is not suitable, or the nutrients are insufficient. But even one tree can create so much miasma, it cannot be ignored.”

As a result, Yi Qingchen was even more puzzled, "It's so terrible, why didn't it burn?"

Shen Yi only sighed, and turned her eyes to the opening where Yi Qingchen broke the flower just now, and a new flower has bloomed there, and the color of the flower is even more coquettish than the previous one, "This flower We cut it, burned it, and tried all the methods, but to no avail. Fortunately, the miasma is not very strong, and the anti-poison pill can still avoid it."

During the speech, Yi Qingchen's eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of the strange colors under the curtains of vines. When he stretched out his hand, he pulled out a mummy. Among them, when Yi Qingchen looked at his clothes, he felt that they were not the style of the village, and even felt a little familiar, but he couldn't tell where he had seen them, so he just pushed the vines back to the original place, secretly said to rest, and went with Shen Yi Went to the depths.

At the end of the road is a deep pool, which is surrounded by mountain walls, and there is only one exit when the two of them come.

The dilapidated roof of the Earth Temple is barely above the surface of the water, and occasionally bubbles emerge from the bottom of the water, indicating that there is still life under the water.The water in the deep pool can be said to be turbid or not, and the two of them can see the general structure of the underwater temple standing on the shore, but there are fallen leaves and green duckweeds intertwined, like looking at flowers in the fog, or watching the moon in the water.

Yi Qingchen casually picked up a stone and threw it towards the surface of the water. The stone used its force to break open a piece of duckweed. Before he could see it clearly, the duckweed quickly gathered again. , there were actually a pair of red eyes staring at him.

Seemingly calm but dangerous, this is what Yi Qingchen thought after seeing the entire Shilin Village.And there should be some clues hidden under the water, but the preparation is not enough right now, don't rush into the water, the thing with red eyes is very likely to be the same thing as the Taoze monster fish, if it catches it, even if it doesn't die, it will have to be broken arm.

Yi Qingchen thought about it, and felt that he should retreat first, and make plans after the pool recedes.Shen Yi also had no objection, just took some water from the pool with a water bag and went back.

After walking into the valley where Shi Teng is, Yi Qingchen only vaguely heard the sound of water coming from behind him, instinctively turned his head to look, but only saw a circle of ripples, and the water surface was swaying, as if something really crawled out of the water just now.

Shen Yi was a little afraid of ghosts, if she was allowed to face the corpse of the monster, she wouldn't be so frightened, but she was terrified of these strange creatures, and immediately grabbed Yi Qingchen's sleeve, "Is there something just now... .”

Before Shen Yi finished speaking, Yi Qingchen suddenly grabbed Shen Yi's arm and led her to the side of the road.A pool of black shadows fell from the sky, and happened to hit the place where the two were standing, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the body of a woman who had been devoured.

Yi Qingchen raised his head and looked up the cliff, but it was empty, only the vines were shaking.Shen Yi leaned down to examine the corpse, and came to a conclusion, "This corpse has not been disintegrated...it should have been drowned, and...he died not long ago."

The message behind Shen Yi's words is nothing more than one, that is, there were still living people in the village who failed to escape, but they couldn't leave for some reason, and they were killed not long ago.

Since there is one living person, there must be a second, and a third...

Yi Qingchen looked at the place on the cliff, made up his mind to sprint for a while, grabbed the vines and jumped up flexibly, but when he climbed to the top, the cliff was empty, there was only a pool of wet water stains on the ground. It spread from the direction of the pool, and it will be dried by the sun now.

Shen Yi called from below, "What did you find, my lord?" Yi Qingchen looked at Shen Yi, who was no bigger than a knuckle under the cliff, and was about to answer, but Shen Yi suddenly covered her mouth and shouted, "My lord, be careful what happens next!" !"

Before Yi Qingchen could react, his waist was pushed by the sudden gravity, his feet slipped, and he fell straight against the mountain wall. Out of his survival instinct, he desperately grabbed the mountain wall and stone vines, and soon The skin and flesh of the clothes were worn and torn, leaving a bright red bloodstain along the way.

Fortunately, he managed to stabilize his figure in the end. He fixed himself on the halfway cliff and looked up, but he couldn't see anything, so he could only give up and landed slowly, returning to Shen Yi's side.

Shen Yi immediately rushed forward to check the wound for Yi Qingchen.There are countless small injuries all over his body, the most serious ones are the lower part of his right arm and right leg knee and calf. The skin and flesh have been worn away by the rocks, and there are still fine stones and stone vine flowers and leaves embedded in it. Shen Yi's face turned pale with fright. Bai, couldn't even say a word, just dealt with it in a hurry.

Yi Qingchen was not as flustered as Shen Yi, "Although it hurts, it shouldn't be so bad, right?" Shen Yi shouted anxiously, "I told you when I came, I was hurt by something here. , will be infected with the poison of the corpse! Right now, the senior brother is not here, and there is no one in Lingshan who has his strength to cure this poison. If he is infected, he will have to wait to die..."

Yi Qingchen reluctantly said optimistically, "Then go to find Hua Shenchi."

Shen Yi's hand, which was applying medicine to Yi Qingchen, stopped suddenly, and the little girl's eyes turned red in an instant, and she raised her head to look at Yi Qingchen, "But the elder brother...is gone... " Seeing Shen Yi's reaction like this, Yi Qingchen can be sure that she doesn't know that Hua Shenchi is still alive, but since she, as the second senior sister, doesn't know about it, it seems that few people in Lingshan know about it.

Seeing Yi Qingchen's expression, Shen Yi also had the answer in her heart, "You really don't remember. I know... In fact, since you failed to recognize me at the first time, I have vaguely had such a An idea, but I dare not believe it... In the end, you really forgot..."

Yi Qingchen couldn't bear to make Shen Yi feel sad, so he had to put the words in a pleasant place, "I forgot at first, but I'm thinking about it a little bit recently..."

Shen Yi suddenly interrupted, "Then do you still remember what he looked like when he died?"

Yi Qingchen met Shen Yi's eyes, but was speechless. Seeing his appearance, Shen Yi couldn't help laughing and crying, but in the end she couldn't bear to ask questions, and it wasn't her turn to ask questions, so she just said one word at a time "Everyone in the market says that for one person, he spared the lives of three thousand disciples in Lingshan and abandoned his master's sect, earning him the eternal infamy of deceiving teachers and destroying ancestors... He is trying to save you... Obviously, I just wanted to prepare a birthday present for you, why did such a disaster happen..."

"When you jumped off the cliff, he jumped off with you, but he couldn't save you... He thought it was his fault..."

"He didn't hesitate to dissect his own soul to save your life... But he went back to Lingshan to apologize with his remaining spiritual consciousness... He was supposed to be buried in the ancestral grave, but in the end he was buried The fate of entering the tomb of ordinary disciples. Although he has always been cold, he still smiled when he saw us, but when he was lying in the coffin, he never smiled again..."

"The disciple's tomb is a forbidden place, and I couldn't send him off for the last time...He has done so much for you, but you have forgotten him..."

Shen Yiwu cried to himself, but it didn't mean to be angry with Yi Qingchen, it was more like pure sadness. Yi Qingchen watched her cry while still not forgetting to treat his wound carefully, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart. I really can't remember Hua Shenchi's appearance, but from Shen Yi's words, I can tell that I owe him a lot, so much that I even owe him this life.

Shen Yi took out a roll of gauze from her arms and wrapped it around the wound for Yi Qingchen. Yi Qingchen didn't know how to comfort the girl, but she couldn't let the little girl cry like this, so she tried to ask some other questions to divert Shen Yi "Can you see what pushed me down just now?"

Mentioning this, Shen Yi was a little stunned, "Because the place was facing the sun, I couldn't open my eyes wide, I could only vaguely see the shape of a human being." After a pause, she added, "It's not tall, it should be a child."

Yi Qingchen looked back, the scorching sun pierced into his eyes through the green mist, and after staring at it for a moment, tears welled up in his eyes, he wiped it with his sleeve, and turned his head to find that Shen Yi was still so sad Looking at himself with a serious expression, he knew that this page was destined not to be opened.

After thinking about it, he felt that escaping was really not a good solution. After listening to Shen Yi's narration, it might be a way to find the past, so he compromised and said, "Now is not the place to talk. We will talk about Hua Shenchi after we return to the camp. , how?" Shen Yi nodded, and then led the way, Yi Qingchen followed behind, but still did not forget to look back at the Wang Shentan frequently.

Humanoid?Could it be that there are water monkeys living under the water?

Back at the camp, everyone noticed the redness and swelling of Shen Yi's eye sockets, and couldn't help whispering, Shen Yi had no time to take care of these idlers, and only said to Ruying who hurried forward to check the situation, "Prepare water, tweezers, knife, Poison powder, hemostatic powder, the young master is injured and needs immediate surgery."

Ruying looked up and down the white gauze on Yi Qingchen's body in disbelief, and Yi Qingchen was startled by Shen Yi's battle, "It doesn't have to be like this..."

Shen Yi didn't say much, lifted the curtain and went into the house.

Ru Ying looked at Shen Yi's back and fell into deep thought. After a long time, she held Yi Qingchen's hand and untied the gauze one by one, "Where is the injury?"

Yi Qingchen smiled awkwardly, "I accidentally fell off the cliff and scratched some flesh."

Ruying took off her white clothes and took a light look, and continued to remove the gauze, but she gasped when she saw the wound.

Seeing Ruying's big reaction, all the disciples around moved their heads curiously. Ruying took the first step to cover the gauze back to its original place, and pushed Yi Qingchen into the tent.
