dye.

Behind the tea shed is the horse shed, which smells a bit unpleasant, but it is not easy to find a place to rest when you are away from home, so I don't care about so much.

Seeing someone coming, the young man rushed out to greet him warmly.

"The two guest officers, please!"

There are already two tables of people sitting in the tea shed, looking at the clothes, one table looks like a businessman and his family, and the other table is two swordsmen.

The young man led the two of them to an empty table. He saw that the two looked very well dressed, so he took off the white cloth on his shoulders and wiped the bench again before inviting them to sit down.

"Thank you," Zhou Yu handed him a piece of silver, and said, "Please have a pot of hot tea and some meat dishes."

Sun Ce glanced at Zhou Yu upon hearing this, but did not speak.

The young man happily took the money, thinking that this time he really met a generous master, he hurriedly said: "Okay! You two wait a moment!" After saying that, he went to the back to make preparations.

While waiting for the food to be served, Zhou Yu took out the bamboo tube containing the medicine from the bag, and the medicine inside was already a little cold.

"I couldn't boil the medicine all the way, and this is the last one." Zhou Yu handed the bamboo tube to Sun Ce as he said.

Sun Ce took the bamboo tube, and the pleasant scent of bamboo leaves wafted from it.Seeing Zhou Yu's extremely serious expression, Sun Ce felt ripples in his heart.

In fact, I want to tell you that this medicine has no effect on me, so that you don't have to work hard every day, but I don't want to see your disappointed expression because you can't help me.

It's because I'm too poisoned.

Sun Ce kept staring at Zhou Yu, his deep black eyes seemed to be seductive, Zhou Yu forced himself to look away from those captivating eyes, and reminded him, "Sun Ce, the medicine is cold."

"Yes." Sun Ce took the bamboo tube and drank the medicine.

The two were silent for a while.

"Guest, your dish is here!"

The boy appeared at the right time, alleviating the embarrassing situation.He brought a pot of tea, two bowls of stewed noodles, and a plate of sauced beef.Although this is a small place, the food is very delicately made, and the strong aroma of sauce penetrates into the nostrils, making people unable to help but move their fingers.

Zhou Yu has been seldom touching meat for the past few days, and today he finally broke the precept.Although this dish is not as fragrant as those in big towns, it is also much better than those tasteless dry food.

Sun Ce never ate much, and after a few days of "torture" of porridge and side dishes, he couldn't help but move a few more chopsticks.

While eating happily, the conversation between the two people at the next table came over.

"My dear brother, you always don't believe that there are ghosts and ghosts in the world. Today I want to tell a story, but you don't want to listen?"

"The theory of demons is nonsense, but it doesn't hurt to listen to it."

"Haha, I hope you can still say this after hearing it."

Sun Ce raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, as if he was quite interested in the conversation between the two.

Anyway, having nothing to do, Zhou Yu followed suit.

"My dear brother, have you heard of the 'ghost town' Yongzhou that eats people without spitting out their bones?"

"Yongzhou? I heard it from my family before, but it's just an ordinary town, so what's so strange about it!"

"Hush!" The man suddenly fell silent, looking around vigilantly.

Zhou Yu hurriedly lowered his head, pretending that he was still eating seriously.Sun Ce turned his back to them, so there was no need to deliberately pretend.

Simply, the hearing of the two is excellent, even if they lowered their voices, they heard everything they said word for word.

"Before, Yongzhou was indeed just an ordinary town, but many years ago, a strange thing suddenly happened in the city."

"Oh? What kind of strange thing is it?"

"My father's grandfather had a distant relative who was doing some small business in Yongzhou, and I heard these things from him. One day, the 96-year-old grandma of the Chen family died suddenly, and people thought she died of old age. After all, people Die at an old age is not a funeral, but a joy. When her family was preparing to bury her in a glorious way, guess what, she came back to life by herself, and her body was very strong, she didn't look like an old man at all. "

"Tsk, is it borrowing the corpse to revive the soul?"

"It's someone else's soul that borrows the corpse to return the soul, but she remembers everything, but she doesn't remember the fact that she walked through the gate of hell. When others mentioned it, she still got angry, saying it was a curse for her to die early. But it's not a bad thing , everyone didn’t care. I thought this incident just passed away, but who knows, a few days later, a person who had drowned and died came back to life like Grandma Chen, and after that, he also didn’t remember The thing about drowning myself."

"There is such a thing? Could it be... is it really a monster?"

"My relative was a little scared, so he wanted to escape from Yongzhou. Later, someone persuaded him, saying that demons can only harm people, and how can they bring people back to life. He thought it made sense, but he was still afraid, so he went to find a famous Taoist priest. To exorcise evil spirits. Unexpectedly, after the Taoist priest saw Yongzhou from a distance, he panicked and said that there was black air covering Yongzhou, which was an ominous omen. Before he could take out the talisman, he suddenly went crazy."

"Crazy?! How could this be?"

"It's absolutely true. I heard people say that the Taoist priest cried and laughed for a while, and then set fire to his house after running home. In the end... well, he was also buried in the flames."

"Then brother, your relative...?"

"Well, after this incident, Yongzhou can't stay any longer. The whole family decided to relocate and leave the place where people cannibalized. But after that, there was no news about them. I have read the book several times, but have never received a response, and I don't know what happened to them..."

"Maybe, he is living a good life and has no time to care about him!"

"No, not only that, since then, no one from Yongzhou has ever left the city. People from other places went to Yongzhou to visit relatives or do business, but as long as they entered the city, no one came back. Since then, Yongzhou has been known as the city of food. A ghost town where people don't spit their bones."

"There is such a bizarre thing! Could it be that no one can control it?"

"Who dares to meddle in other people's business. The Taoist didn't enter the city and he ended up like that. If he has already entered the city, maybe something happened. Everyone knows it well, just keep a respectful distance from Yongzhou. Anyway, there is one less place to go. Days are the same."

"I originally wanted to go to the south for a visit, but after hearing what my elder brother said, it seems that I have to change my itinerary. It would be better to go to the Western Regions for a while."

"Okay! I heard that there is a city in the Western Regions that is protected by ancient giant beasts, so I will go with my virtuous brother to learn more about it!"

"Without further ado, let's go. Dude, check out!"

After the two talked, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu looked at each other and smiled.

"Why, want to visit Yongzhou?" Sun Ce raised his eyebrows.

Zhou Yu was very interested in what the two said, and said, "It's unheard of to come back from the dead."

"Are you going to find the law of longevity?" Sun Ce joked.

Zhou Yu laughed and said, "If I want to live forever, it's easier to stay in your Ling Kong City and cultivate immortals."

"Cultivation?" Sun Ce repeated the two words Zhou Yu said, with a smile in his eyes, "I have never been a decent family."

Zhou Yu lowered his head and thought for a while, finally thought of a suitable word, and said leisurely: "Then you will fall into the magic way, and you will not grow old or die."

After hearing his words, Sun Ce restrained his smile for a moment, but returned to normal in an instant.

Zhou Yu didn't notice his subtle changes, and waved to the boy who was clearing the table in front, and said, "Man, pack some dry food for us, a roast chicken."

"okay!"

There are no shops in front of the village or shops in the back of this place. To make a living here, the young man has long been familiar with the habits of passers-by.After a while, he

He came out with his things.

Zhou Yu took the dry food, stuffed another piece of silver into the boy's hand, and asked, "How far is it from here to Yongzhou?"

When the boy heard the word "Yongzhou", the smile on his face froze and his face turned pale.

"Guest...guest, but Yongzhou is..."

"I know," Zhou Yu said with a nonchalant smile, "you just answer my question."

"This..." The boy saw that although Zhou Yu was smiling, his eyes were unquestionably firm. He had no choice but to tell the truth, "If you go south from here, if you don't stop halfway, you can arrive at this time tomorrow."

"Thank you."

After speaking, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce got up and were about to leave.

The little guy is still worried, he has stayed here for many years, he has never seen curious people, but if these people go in, there will be only one end.

"Guests... If you are curious, just take a look from a distance, and don't go into the city!"

"Just don't worry," Zhou Yu said, looking at Sun Ce, bending his eyes and smiling, "It would be a rare thing if someone could trap Lord Sect Master."

Sun Ce took the bundle from Zhou Yu's hand with a doting expression on his face, and the ice on his face had disappeared since then.

"Let's go."

night talk

The two of them walked faster than ordinary people, and they drove for dozens of miles, and the sky gradually darkened.The further south he walked, the more strange the atmosphere became for Zhou Yu. Perhaps it was influenced by the legend. There were no people in the area for more than ten miles, let alone half of them, let alone a place to stay. It seemed that he could only sleep outside tonight.

Sun Ce did not see any dissatisfaction, which surprised Zhou Yu.As the master of the dignified sect, although he can't say that he can't be said to be clothed with clothes, hands and mouths, but he has always been rich in clothes and jade, so he can endure the pain of being made a bed by the earth.If it wasn't for satisfying their momentary curiosity, the environment they are in now would be many times better than it is now.

"There is a forest ahead, why don't we go in and stay overnight?" Zhou Yu asked.

Sun Ce looked at the deep and quiet woods, and didn't notice anything wrong, but he had to be careful as he was near Yongzhou, so he said to Zhou Yu, "Sit here for a while, and I'll go find the way."
