death

Chapter 76
Hearing what the woman in blue said, just as I was about to argue, she stretched the Xingyu bow in her hand and said to me: "Why are you not convinced?"

The appearance of Ning Xi has put the matter to rest temporarily. I don't want to cause trouble again, so I said, "I'm not unconvinced. If you say yes, then I will!"

The woman in blue didn't really shoot the long arrow, but lowered her bowstring slowly and said to Ning Xi: "I don't care about your case, I'll wait for you outside this phoenix forest, don't you want to escape, I will use my The eyes of the galaxy are watching yours."

After all, the woman in blue got up and flew to the top of the sycamore tree, and then flew out of the sycamore forest.

Another guy who can fly, maybe her strength is similar to that of Li Guidao?
After the woman left, I asked Ning Xi: "Your master actually cheated her sister's eyes back then, how did you do it?"

Ning Xi smiled wryly and didn't speak.

Mai Xiaorou said curiously: "The woman just now seems to be not much younger than us, and her sister should not be too old. Maybe she was cheated because she was too young. Then again, God What is the Eye Clan?"

Mai Xiaorou and I asked Ning Xi questions at the same time.

Ning Xi's expression was a little gloomy, and he paused for a while and said, "I'm not very clear about my master's affairs, but I do know some simple things about the God-eye clan. As for how my master met people from the upper realm, I don't know, and I know very little about the affairs of the upper realm."

It was the upper realm again, did he come from the same place as that Yang Zhi?

Mai Xiaorou and I were about to ask some questions, but Ning Xi said: "Okay, stop asking, I really don't know how to answer your other questions."

I said: "Then I won't ask about the woman in blue, let me tell you about you, you are so mysterious this day, and you sneaked into the phoenix forest, is there something you are hiding from us? Deliberately going against me on the road, you did it on purpose to show us."

Ning Xi thought for a while and nodded, "That's right, I did it on purpose for you to see. Now that the matter has reached this point, I won't hide it from you. What I did before was all done on purpose to create a false appearance." , to make you feel that I only got into the sycamore forest when I quarreled with you."

I asked Ning Xi what his real purpose was.

Ning Xi said: "Actually, before accepting the case, I secretly came here to know something about the ghost inside. My goal is that ghost, and I want to take it as my own!"

Mai Xiaorou froze for a moment and said, "You want to raise ghosts!? This is against the law of heaven!"

Ning Xi said: "I know, but that ghost is very important to me!"

I asked what that ghost was, but she hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "It's a 'Gu'!"

After finishing speaking, Ning Xi introduced us how to write those two characters.

I couldn't help but wonder what "鬾话" is.

Ning Xi said: "He also has another one called 鬾蜮. 鬾 itself refers to children's ghosts, but if you add the word Gu or 蜮 after it, it is a ghost that can gather ghosts and cause disasters. It also has a hobby, That is because they like to set fires, in fact, many deep forest fires in the past were caused by Gu."

"Zhang Heng also mentioned this kind of thing in "Tokyo Fu", "Dou Gu and Bi Fang". It's a sign of fire."

I couldn't help asking curiously: "Then Gu came to this phoenix forest, is he going to set fire to it?"

Ning Xi said: "There is a huge bird's nest in this deep forest, which was built with countless complete trees, for the purpose of waiting for the real phoenix to return to the nest and nirvana. When it snows, the snowflakes will evaporate into air five or six meters above the bird's nest, and a piece of snow cannot fall on the bird's nest. The same is true for rain. The raindrops do not come close, and they turn into air. The bird's nest is dry all the year round. , is the easiest place to set fire, and it is also the favorite place of that Gu."

"The phoenix occupies the bird's nest as its lair, and its yin energy will pollute the phoenix's nest. That's why the Xiao family sent people to eradicate the phoenix."

I asked Ning Xi: "The Xiao family know what's in there?"

Ning Xi said: "Of course I know, they all know the cause and effect of this matter, originally they just need a random expert to come over, and they can handle this matter very easily, in that case, I won't be able to get Gu , but I didn't expect that the Xiao family didn't do that. Instead, they handed over this case to you. When I was most surprised, they let me go with you, so I had another chance, in order not to arouse your suspicion , I pretended to be at odds with you, and I would have a reason to act alone when I got here. thing!"

As he spoke, Ning Xi looked in the direction where the woman in blue disappeared.

I said to Ning Xi: "Actually, when you entered the Indus Forest alone, we began to suspect that your previous acting was the reason for us to suspect that you had another purpose, because the signs of your acting were too obvious."

Ning Xi smiled and said: "I'm not a good actor, but I've confessed now, can we make a deal, and I'll handle the worms!"

I didn't say anything, I went to look at Mai Xiaorou, and just as she was about to speak, Ning Xi said: "Friend Mai, don't talk to me about the way of heaven, if you talk about the way of heaven, Chen Yu is a curse, and you are a corpse , compared to Gu, you are no better than that!"

It turns out that Ning Xi already knew our identities.

I asked Ning Xi again: "What exactly is the use of that 鬾gu?"

Ning Xi said: "For my eyes, my master transplanted the Eye of the Galaxy to me. Although it gave me great power, it made me suffer from body cold. I like arson, and after a long time of raising it, it can replenish some yang energy for me and greatly relieve the pain of my body cold."

Ning Xi did it for healing, not for harming others.

Mai Xiaorou thought for a while and said, "I'm a corpse, I'm not qualified to judge, Chen Yu, tell me."

I said to Mai Xiaoju: "Xiaorou, in my heart, you are a human being, not a corpse at all. As for the scorpion, since it can cure Ning Xi's illness, it is better to keep it than to break it up. I believe it will stay. Next to Ning Xi, I won't do anything bad."

Ning Xi cupped his hands towards me and said, "Thank you, Daoist Chen, for your understanding!"

Mai Xiaorou said next to him: "It's just that the ghosts should be scattered and reincarnated. If you keep them in the way of raising them, will it damage your merits and affect your future practice?"

Ning Xi shook his head and said, "That's impossible. Once the Gu is formed, there is basically no possibility of reincarnation, and some Gu will even burn themselves to death when they set fire. "

Hearing what Ning Xi said, Mai Xiaorou nodded without any objection.

We delayed talking here for a while, and after we reached an agreement, we began to walk into the parasol forest. At this time, the strange formation around us seemed to have disappeared. Stepped.

It should be the woman in blue who removed it.

When we went inside, the first thing we did was to find Zhang Rui and Tang Qing. The two of them had been in the forest for a while, so I don't know what's going on now.

Ning Xi said that she sneaked in before and was already near the Phoenix Nest, but she didn't find the Gu and the Lonely Ghost near the Phoenix Nest, so she went back and looked for it elsewhere. It's nice to meet Mai Xiaorou and me. And the blue-clothed woman with the eye of the galaxy, she just appeared.

But she didn't meet Zhang Rui and Tang Qing along the way.

This sycamore forest is huge, could it be that Zhang Rui and Tang Qing lost their way in the big formation just now?

Soon we arrived near the Phoenix Nest. The bird's nest was very big, not much smaller than the "bird's nest" in the capital. Seeing such a magnificent Phoenix Nest, I couldn't help but sigh with emotion!

And there is indeed some yin energy here, but more yang energy. The ground is more than ten meters away from the bird's nest, and the ground is abnormally dry without a single snowflake.

I grabbed a handful of snow and threw it towards the phoenix nest, before the snow fell to the ground, it all turned into steam.

It should be very hot to melt the snow, but we didn't feel the heat when we stood near the Phoenix Nest.

This makes us feel a little strange.

I threw a few more handfuls of snow, and Mai Xiaorou glared at me and said, "Chen Yu stop playing, let's think about how to find Zhang Rui and Tang Qing."

I thought for a while and said: "The two of them led us to the vicinity of the Phoenix Nest. When there was that weird formation just now, they might have lost their way, but now that the formation has disappeared, maybe they will find it in a short time." They're here, let's wait for them here for a while, and Ning Xi also said that the phoenix gu uses this phoenix nest as a lair, so the phoenix gu will definitely come back here, so let's arrange it nearby. Stand by and wait here!"

Hearing what I said, Ning Xi and Mai Xiaorou also nodded.

We slowly retreated into the nearby sycamore forest.

Mai Xiaorou and Ning Xi began to arrange their own formations, but I couldn't see any tricks from the side.

I didn't do anything, just stared blankly at the huge "Huang Nest".

If this is the lair of the real phoenix, how big should the real phoenix be?

During the period, I also took out my mobile phone and fiddled with it, but unfortunately there was no signal, and it was simply impossible to contact each other through mobile phones here.

After about an hour, when it was almost morning, we saw a group of shadows approaching us. The two leaders were Zhang Rui and Tang Qing. They walked stupidly, and a group of shadows followed behind them. A large group of ghosts.

I couldn't help being surprised: "Have Zhang Rui and Tang Qing been caught?"

Mai Xiaorou hurriedly pulled me to hide and said, "Don't talk, let's observe the situation first, there are hundreds of ghosts at least, it might be difficult for us to deal with them, don't act rashly!"

Ning Xi also said: "That's right, let's find out where the goblin is, capture the thief first and capture the king first, and it's easy to talk about cleaning up the other ghosts!"

The woman in blue said, that Gu is very powerful, we may not be its opponent, even if we find it, how can we catch it?

I suddenly felt that this case was a bit difficult!
