Chapter 578 Chief of Zi Village. (Fourth update! Please subscribe!)

Pei Ling felt his heartbeat speed up uncontrollably. He looked around calmly, and looked at the eight furnace cauldrons who were still holding his breath. Forgot what?

I can't think of anything, but the idea of an unfathomable mystery comes to mind: at a critical moment, the female corpse in the storage bag is taken out to save her life.

A female corpse?

Lifesaving?

Pei Ling frowned, what a mess...

There are still two female corpses in his storage bag, one of which is still unidentified, and the other One is the Plain True Heaven Disciple.

And Qiao Ciguang, the true biography of Plain True Heaven, did not go to Myriad Hui Sea during this time, just to avenge the same sect!

So taking out the female corpse at a critical moment, not to mention life-saving, it would be nice not to urge her to die.

shook the head, Pei Ling decided to continue the plan just now, so he ordered: "You stay here and guard the house, I'll go out."

"Master..." furnace The cauldrons were about to speak, and when they saw Pei Ling's face darkening, they didn't dare to bother, they only said: "Yes!" go.

As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, he noticed that someone was staring at him in the dark.

Pei Ling's expression didn't change much, he had already recognized it as the breath of those loose cultivators. Most of the loose cultivator is afraid of the name of Inborn Church, and specially sent people to observe his every move.

At the moment, he still has important things to do, so he ignored the loose cultivators, saw a villager passing by nearby, and walked over directly: "This uncle, dare to ask the village chief where he is. Where?"

The villager stopped and sighed: "Master Young has been away for too long, how could he even forget such a thing?"

He pointed it out. In a different direction, "Go over there, there are seven pine and cypress trees in front of the door."

"many thanks uncle." After Pei Ling thanked him, he followed what he said.

A moment later, he really saw seven tall pines and cypresses, and behind the pines and cypresses was a rather solemn mansion.

It is tall and towering, and there is a carved stone lion guarding the door, but the stone lion seems to be old and has a strange shape.

Generally speaking, this mansion is very out of tune with all around thatched huts.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have imagined that such a deep house could be found in such a village.

He looked around and knocked on the door.

※※※

Azusa Village.

In front of a house next to the river, all around is bare and nothing. The courtyard is made of stones, but it is chest-high. Standing outside the courtyard, you can directly see the situation in the courtyard.

At this moment, the courtyard is empty, but some firewood and the like are scattered.

Qiao Ciguang looked around and knocked on the courtyard door.

A short while later, an old man with white hair and white beard came out of the house. He was wearing a relatively new short brown, with awning shoes, and he was holding a handful of knitted shoes in his hand. of hemp rope.

Standing under the eaves, separated by a simple gate, the old man's expression changed slightly after seeing Qiao Ciguang, and he returned to normal immediately, walked over to open the door, and said kindly, "I am a villager in Zi Village. Boss, what's the matter?"

Although his complexion changed in an instant, and he quickly concealed it, Qiao Ciguang is the true biography of Plain True Heaven, and any subtle movements can't escape her eyes.

This old man must know something!

Thinking of this, Qiao Ciguang gave a salute and said calmly: "I came from far away, and I am grateful to your village to stay here, so I came to offer some kindness."

While speaking, she stretched out her hand into the storage bag, found a random piece of ore, used the Five Elements transformation, turned it into gold, then took it out and sent it to the old man, "Where the trouble is, please ask the old man Haihan. ."

Seeing Qiao Ciguang take out a golden light shining thing, the old man was frowned at first, squinting for a while before he recognized it was gold.

He immediately looked at the head and said: "Our village is located in a remote area, and the caravan has not been here for a long time. Usually in the village, barter is used. Although gold is good, it is nothing for me. Use it. The girl's heart is in the heart of the little old man, but this piece of gold should be taken back."

Hearing this, Qiao Ciguang squinted slightly.

This old man is so old that he almost doesn't even recognize gold. If he wants to come to this whole Zi village, he has been isolated from the world for a long time.

So she put away the gold and said sincerely: "We came from far away, and we carry a lot to travel. If the old man is willing, we can also trade with you like a caravan, but I don't know. , what do you need?"

"The village has always been self-sufficient, and there is usually nothing short of it." The old man hesitated slightly, and immediately said, "At most, give the children some snacks and toys."

"However, there is a funeral right now, but everything is missing..."

"The most missing thing at the moment is a drummer."

"But I think The girls are all well-dressed, and they must be nobles, so they can’t condescend to be noble and do such a cheap job, alas...”

Qiao Ciguang took advantage of the situation and asked: “When I entered the village, I heard that your village will be coming tomorrow. To hold a funeral, according to the custom of our hometown, we should go there to complain, but we don’t know who the victim is, what did we say when we went?”

“It’s the old Xu Family in front. "The old man heard the words, sighed, and said, "The old Xu Family is so young... I can't imagine that this time they will be selected by lottery."

Lottery?

Qiao Ciguang face changed, and immediately asked: "The lottery?"

"This is the rule passed down by the ancestors." The old man said slowly, "Whoever will be drawn by lot is the Whose funeral."

"Dare to ask, when will the lottery be drawn? How will the lottery be drawn?" Qiao Ciguang asked in a deep voice, "If no one passed away in the lottery, what would be done? "

The old man asked nonsense: "I see that there are many young men accompanying the girl, but is anyone willing to help with the funeral? Although our village has no money to use as a reward, it also has some local rituals to chat with."

Qiao Ciguang changed his mind and said, "If my husband is willing to answer my question, I will discuss with my companions and help you, how about that?"

Hearing this, the old man But he simply closed his mouth, said nothing, just shook his head.

Qiao Ciguang asked for a long time to no avail, so he had to change the question: "Dare to ask when Zi Village settled here? Why did the ancestors pass down the rules of drawing lots for funerals?"

Seeing that the old man still shook his head without saying a word, she black brows slightly wrinkle, and continued, "What do the rules in the village mean?"

This time, the old man finally spoke, his eyes widened. With a deep expression, he said word by word, "This is also handed down from the ancestors. If you violate it, the curse will come."

...While Qiao Ciguang was talking with the old man, Shi Wanli was already looking for While asking, he came to the door of the old Xu Family that the villagers said.

A white cloth was hung on the door of this family.

What made Shi Wanli take a special look is the Spring Festival couplets on the door. Although they are also green, they are extraordinarily bright.

The Spring Festival couplets were supposed to be posted in the twelfth lunar month, but if you were more careful, they would be replaced on New Year's Eve.

No matter which type it is, normally, in a village, the degree of depreciation of Spring Festival couplets should be similar...

What is the situation in this family?

Shi Wanli pondered, stepped forward and knocked on the door.

For a moment, no one answered.

After hesitating for a while, Shi Wanli looked around for a while. Seeing that no one was passing by, he took a step back and breathed softly. The door that was closed silently opened.

His eyes swept away, and he had determined that the main room was unoccupied, so he quickly ducked in, beckoned back, and closed the door again.
