Nanlin Bamboo Demon

Gu Nianran naturally also felt the demonic aura in this woman, and when she heard this question, she calmly smiled and said, "Yes, it's the same as you, madam."

The woman didn't expect Gu Nianran to be so honest, she didn't know how to answer for a moment, she could only turn her head and lead the way.

"I don't know, what should I call Madam?" Gu Nianran asked.

"No surname, you can just call me Mrs. Hongyi." Hongyi turned to look at Weifu, "Boy, what about you?"

Wei Fu was still wondering why the lady knew that Gu Nianran was a monster, and her first reaction was to be vigilant. She was suddenly pointed out, and her mouth grew wide, "Ah... that... um... I..."

"Why is such a big man still stuttering?" Hong Yi said in disgust.

"No! I'm not stuttering! My name is Weifu!" When Weifu spoke, he wished to stick out his chest to prove that he was confident, but Hongyi didn't look back at all, but felt that the child was a little naive.

"You Wei family, will you go to visit relatives with Yao?" Hongyi asked tentatively.

"Yes, we have a good relationship! He is my... um... important friend."

"Oh?" Hongyi smiled, and didn't speak any more.

"Madam Hongyi, I have a question, I would like to ask you." Gu Nianran said.

"go ahead."

"People here don't pay much attention to strangers?" After Gu Nianran asked, she saw the little girl who quietly looked back at her, and smiled at her. The little girl quickly shrank her head and turned back.

"It's not that they ignore strangers, it's that they don't see you at all."

Both Gu Nianran and Wei Fu thought to themselves that their guess might be right.

"What...what happened here?" Gu Nianran asked.

"I advise you two not to know too much, it's not good for you."

"Are all the people here like this? Then why don't you and this child..."

"If you still want to keep asking this question, then I'll go back and find your own way to the Imperial City." Hongyi stopped and said forcefully.

"Offended, we don't ask anymore."

Gu Nianran and Wei Fu did not say another word.

When a group of them passed by the place where they met the little girl just now, the uncle selling vegetables had disappeared.

Wei Fu wondered, "Did the uncle sell out the vegetables so quickly?"

Gu Nianran noticed that the little girl squeezed close to Hongyi after hearing Wei Fu's words, her shoulders shrugged involuntarily.He frowned, what was it that made the child so frightened, made the mother with strong skills not say a word, and made the people around him look like walking corpses.

He suddenly remembered what Zhuang Chong had said to him, separated from the incident itself, and analyzed whether it was related to the previous incident from the whole.

If there is a lack of emotion, it is similar to the separation of the three souls and seven souls of the ghost car before, but... it shouldn't be... the ghost car sucks the soul of the whole person, not a single soul... Who is it? ...why do you do this...

"Young Master Nianran, Young Master Nianran!"

Gu Nianran was shocked by Weifu's call, and was pulled aside by his arm, "What are you thinking? You almost hit someone."

Hong Yi and the little girl also stopped to look at him, with "Are you the same as the people here?" written on their faces.

"Ah, I was just thinking about something, I was too engrossed, so I didn't hear you call me, it's okay, it's okay." Gu Nianran waved his hand.

"Let me just say, your demon power is so strong, how could you become like them so easily." Hong Yi held the little girl's hand tightly, "This is not a place where you can stay for long."

"Mom." The little girl called softly.

Hong Yi squatted down, "What's the matter?" His tone was extremely gentle.

The little girl carefully raised her eyes and glanced at Gu Nianran, "Is this big brother very powerful?"

Hongyi also looked at Gu Nianran, turned around and told the little girl firmly, "Yes, very strong."

"Is it stronger than your mother?"

"Ah."

"Then, let them help to find my father... um!" Hong Yi covered the little girl's mouth, blocking her unfinished sentence.

"Didn't I tell you earlier that no one can help us?" Hong Yi looked a little angry.

"Ma'am... is there any difficulty?" Gu Nianran asked.

Hong Yi stood up, "No." Then she signaled the little girl to stop talking.

"Ma'am, we can help." Wei Fu said.

"No, I have no relationship with you. I met by chance. I don't want to bother you, and I don't want to owe you a favor. Besides, it's unknown whether the two are friends or foes, so it's inconvenient to reveal too much."

Wei Fu felt that this woman's temper was really stinky and stubborn, "Do we look like bad guys? And this problem must have troubled Madam for a long time, how about..."

"I said no need!" Hong Yi pointed at Wei Fu while saying, "Talk too much, and I'll kill you."

Gu Nianran hurriedly pulled back Weifu, stood in front of him, gently moved Hongyi's bow away, and said with a smile, "Madam, don't be angry, we also want to help, after all, you also helped us, so we also want to help you." A little favor is repaid, and there is no malice."

Hong Yi bowed, "I still say that, we met by chance, there is no need to get involved too much. I will handle my own affairs." After saying that, she took the little girl's hand and walked on.

"What kind of weird temper is this..." Wei Fu muttered in a low voice, leaning against Juechen with an unhappy expression on his face.

"Don't be unhappy, what Madam Hongyi said is true, she really doesn't need to tell us about her private affairs, and we really don't know anything about each other, this is also a way for her to protect herself and her child. "

"Well……"

"Okay, let's go."

"Oh……"

So Mrs. Hongyi led the little girl to the front, Gu Nianran walked behind, and Wei Fu walked lazily at the end with Juechen who was carrying Hui Ao on his back.After walking about five or six kilometers, I arrived at the official road.

"Just follow this main road." Mrs. Hongyi pointed forward along the official road, "After walking for about two hours, you will be able to see the city gate."

"Thank you, madam, for taking us such a long way." Gu Nianran said.

"No thanks, those two go slowly, I won't see you off."

"If madam doesn't mind, how about letting Juechen send the two of you back?"

"Jiechen?"

"It's just this beautiful horse. The journey is a bit far away, and I'm afraid the child won't be able to bear it."

"No, she can still walk this way."

Wei Fu began to mutter again in his heart, "Being deaf to good intentions, you are a weirdo."

"Then... please be careful on the road."

Hong Yi left without looking back.

The little girl looked back at Gu Nianran from time to time, as if she still wanted to say something, but in the end, Hongyi blocked her sight with her sleeve.

"Mr. Nianran, tell me, since the little girl asked for help, it proves that she can't solve it by herself, why do you think she is so persistent and wants to solve it by herself?"

"Madam Hongyi is a very strong person, so she should not easily ask for help."

"But you said it can't be solved, it's good for everyone to help, and I've said that, she still..."

"Perhaps, you can still help her."

"Ok?"

"Those villages are too weird. We didn't really go to the imperial city. We have to go back the same way to see what will happen there."

"You're right, we're not really going to the imperial city to visit relatives, look at me!"

"Goo~~"

Wei Fu's stomach growled untimely.

"Hey." Wei Fu smiled embarrassedly, "I haven't eaten, I'm already hungry."

"Blame me, I didn't notice this, I was just on my way." Gu Nianran looked around, "There was nothing to eat in the village I passed by just now, and there are no shops around here, it seems that we have to go to the imperial city have eaten."

"Okay! I heard that the imperial city has a lot of delicious food, but I haven't had time. It seems that this will be delicious!"

Gu Nianran smiled and said, "This meeting is not enough, we still have business to do."

"Ah, I get carried away when I mention eating."

"Let's go."

"Ok!"

The two walked quickly, and they saw the city gate in less than half an hour.

"It looks like we're going to be there soon." Gu Nianran said, he didn't hear a reply for a long time, he looked back and saw Wei Fu's face was sad.

"Young Master Wei Fu, what's the matter?"

"This place...why is it so familiar..." Wei Fu stared at the city gate and frowned, "It's as if I've been here before."

"Has Master Wei Fu been here before?"

Wei Fu shook his head, "I don't have memory, but how can I be so familiar..."

"Did you come here when you were a child?"

Did you come here when you were a child... When you were a child... When you were a child...

Gu Nianran's words were like digging away the stone that had been suppressed in Wei Fu's heart for many years.

This familiar feeling...he's been here before...no, he's lived here before...was it a dream or did it really exist...what is it!

Something is trying to get out of its brain...

"Come out... come out!" Wei Fu suddenly scratched his head and cried out in pain.

"Young Master Weifu? Young Master Weifu!" Gu Nianran grabbed Weifu's hand, "Calm down! Think slowly, think slowly! You can't think of a result like this! You were too young at that time... It's normal not to remember!"

"It hurts...it hurts..." Wei Fu opened his eyes wide and stared at Gu Nianran, "My head hurts, my head hurts, why does my head hurt so much!"

Gu Nianran has nothing to do, and this is not a symptom that can be cured by the eternal life knot.At the moment, he had no choice but to strike down with his palm, and Wei Fu passed out.

Gu Nianran wanted to help Weifu onto Juechen's back, but as soon as he lifted himself up, Juechen had turned into a low-key carriage.

"It's really hard work." Gu Nianran patted Juechen's head, helped Wei Fu into the car, and pretended to be driving a horse into the city outside.

The imperial city has a large population and is very lively. Most of the people in the city are rich and noble, and a carriage is very common in the city.At first, Gu Nianran was worried that it would be too eye-catching because of the horse-drawn carriage, but after entering the city, he found that there were several horse-drawn carriages within a block, and he was relieved.

He found that there were strange talismans pasted on the doorsteps of many people here, and some of the ink marks were not dry, as if they had just been pasted.

There are all kinds of spells, Gu Nianran wonders, is there a ghost coming to the city?

Wait, ghosts come to town?

Gu Nianran calculated the date, and it happened to be the fifteenth day of July.

The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the door of hell is wide open, no wonder they want to post those spells.

However, isn't this festival a day for the dead to return home and have a look... Is it just like this to keep them out of the door?

"Oh..." Gu Nianran sighed.

While he was walking, he was looking for a shop that seemed to have delicious food to his liking, while thinking about what to do when he returned to the village.Immediately afterwards, a bustling inn came into his eyes, the name of the inn reassured him, even Juechen consciously walked towards the inn.

There was a sudden movement in the car, probably Wei Fu woke up.

Gu Nianran stopped the carriage, opened the curtain, and saw Weifu inside who still had a dark expression on his face, "We're here."

Wei Fu was weak, "Where are you?"

"Let's fill your stomach first, otherwise you won't even have the strength to get a headache..."

Wei Fu was paralyzed in the car laughing, Mr. Nian Ran would tease people anytime...

When he climbed out of the carriage and saw the name of the inn, his heart jumped twice involuntarily. He saw that the inn was bustling with crowds of people coming in and out, and the inn door with blue walls and red tiles hung high on the door. Jin's plaque, the three big characters on the plaque that made his headache seem to be serious, but also seemed to be relieved --- "Scattering Cloud Building".
