Onmyoji's Secret

Chapter 366 Hidden Murder

I was a little surprised, but that's okay, I just went to his house to look for any clues.

The old man of the Naxi nationality walked forward slowly, with his back straight. Although he was old, he gave people a faint oppressive force.

"What's your name, sir?"

I led the crowd to follow behind him and asked questions.

The old man didn't look back, and said lightly: "Mu."

My eyes froze instantly, wood?Mu?
You must know that the purpose of my master's coming this time is to rescue the senior sister who was taken away by the Mu family, and the old man in front of me happens to be surnamed "Mu" and happens to live in this stone city. Could it be that he is also from the Mu Palace?But isn’t the Mu family all Han Chinese? Why did they become Naxi again?

I hid my doubts in my heart and followed silently. No matter what, the relationship between Master and Mu Yueting is too great. Even if I use force later, I will still ask the old man for clues.

The houses in this stone city are in order, and the lanes are criss-crossed. Before walking too far, there is a feeling that you can't find the way.

"Old Wu, Ah Zhao, do you remember the way we came here just now?" I asked my companion next to me in a low voice.

The two of them froze for a moment, then turned around and looked around, and their expressions were a little ugly after that.

"Why are these roads similar? We just took the one on the left, no, the one on the right..."

Like me, in a short period of time, everyone couldn't remember which road they came from just now. The city is full of fork roads, and suddenly it looks exactly the same to people.

"Dharma circle, Taoist ecstasy circle."

I whispered to myself, just now I observed and speculated that when this city was built, it should have been pointed out by Taoist masters. The houses are built according to specific directions, which will give people a fascinated effect. The way of walking, the average person may get lost in it directly.

"This is really interesting. The formation of the Taoist school, the descendants of the Mu Palace, the territory of the Naxi people..." The cold light flashed in my eyes, and I reached out and touched the talisman with the bull's head sealed on my waist. If there is any change, the big deal is to release the bull's head, and this small city cannot be trapped at all.

Soon, under the leadership of the old man Mu, we walked through the alleys and aisles towards the depths of the city. We saw many Naxi people along the way. I don’t know if it was led by the old man this time. Dodging like that, on the contrary, when we passed by, we actually bowed to the old man Mu with a respectful face.It seems that this old man has a very high status in Stone City.

A few minutes later, a huge stone blockhouse appeared in front of us. The style of this building was completely different from other houses, and in some places it resembled the Qiang village I had seen at the beginning.

"Several, please come inside."

The old man Mu made a gesture of invitation to us, everyone looked at each other and followed in.

Before entering the gate, several Naxi girls greeted them from inside, lined up one by one, saluted the old man Mu, and said something we couldn't understand in Naxi language, but it should be a kind of respect title.

"Hey, I can't tell, this old man is quite powerful, he acts like a feudal landlord. But these chicks are pretty pretty, tsk tsk." A Zhao's eyes almost popped out. The women of the Naxi nationality are beautiful and lovely, coupled with the temptation of the foreign costumes, it makes him feel itchy.

"Don't be a jerk, you bastard. The eldest lady ordered us to help Brother Chen with his affairs, so don't miss the business." Old Wu scolded Ah Zhao from the side, but I saw his eyes were also on those few days. The woman paused.

I shook my head, led Long Zhu and walked in behind Old Man Mu.

Entering the house, there is a wide hall, which is quite modern, with sofas, TVs, and even air conditioners. It seems that these Naxi people still have close contact with the outside world and are not so lonely.

"Sit down, everyone."

The wooden old man asked us to sit down, and ordered the maid to bring tea and pastries for us to eat, while he himself was watching the TV series with a cup of strong tea, and he didn't seem to care about us at all.

Now I can't sit still, watching Ah Zhao and Long Zhu eating snacks, but I have no appetite at all, I have something to do here, I don't have time to eat and drink.

"Mr. Mu, I would like to ask you something. I wonder if it is convenient." I asked patiently.

Although he knew that old man Mu just raised his eyelids, he said flatly, "Let's talk."

My teeth itch with hatred in my heart, this guy is really an old fox.I thought about it, and asked straightforwardly: "Seeing that the old man is not an ordinary person, I will tell you the truth. My master disappeared in this stone city a few days ago. I came this time to find him. If you know the traces, please tell me, I will be grateful, if you know, but don't say..."

At the end, I looked at Old Man Mu coldly, the threat was beyond words.

Who would have thought that old man Mu would chuckle and say, "Young people these days are always so impatient. How about this, you watch a dance with me, and when I'm done, I'll tell you what I know."

After finishing speaking, the old man Mu clapped his hands, and those Naxi girls came in from the door just now, Tingting curled up, making the whole room much brighter.

I saw that old man Mu agreed. Although I didn't know why he wanted to watch the dance, I sat down in a daze. I had been waiting for so long, and it was not too late. It's hard for me to refuse

"Hehe, our Naxi people are good at singing and dancing, and the beautiful dance can cleanse your soul." The old man Mu said with an intoxicated face, which made me sick for a while.He said a few words in Naxi to the dancers, probably ordering the show or something, and then he found a small sheepskin drum from nowhere, and it seemed that he wanted to accompany it by himself.

I felt a little uncomfortable looking at the drum in his hand, but I didn't say much. Most of the musical instruments of ethnic minorities have their own characteristics, so we don't want to make random comments.

As the sheepskin drum in the old man's hand began to beat, he even sang melodiously in Naxi.

The beautiful long skirts twirled with the dancing of their waists. The Naxi girls danced lightly like swallows laying on their nests, and flew high like magpies frightened at night. The big eyes have a kind of soul-catching light, I can't help swallowing my saliva when I look at them.On the other hand, Ah Zhao and Lao Wu were crying all over the floor, their eyes didn't move at all, only Long Zhu, who was wearing sunglasses, was eating snacks by himself.

Old man Mu's singing became louder and louder, and he seemed to be singing, so he jumped into the group of dancers, shaking the sheepskin drum in his hand, and making various dance moves, we couldn't help laughing.

As the rhythm continued to accelerate, the dancers danced more and more quickly and briskly, and at the same time they sang along with the old man Mu, with a clear and melodious voice.

Before I knew it, I felt a little dizzy, and the sound of the drums echoed in my mind like a magic sound.The loud singing and dancing are more like a lullaby, making my mind chaotic.

I shook my head, pushing some of the dizziness out of my mind.What's wrong?Why do I feel a little dizzy even sitting down.Eyelids are starting to close.

boom!
At this moment, there was a crisp sound, which made me tremble in fright. I managed to open my eyes and saw Azhao and Lao Wu fell to the ground directly, and even touched the teacup on the coffee table to the ground.

"Ah! What's wrong with you, oh, master, why do I feel a little dizzy!"

Longzhu's voice rang in my ears, but my consciousness was a little blurred at the moment, but my heart was full of anger. I didn't expect to fall into this old guy's way, and no one thought that there would be a murderous intention hidden in a dance.

Suddenly, I saw a figure walking towards me with a wicked smile on his face.

At this moment, a furious dragon's roar suddenly sounded from the backpack behind me, and a white shadow rushed out...
