no one knows better than me

"You took his head just to bury him?" Zhuang Qingliu looked at him condescendingly.

"Yes." The young man raised his head, "Those walking corpses will tear the corpse into pieces, and it is impossible to distinguish the bloody flesh. I can only take his head."

"You're talking nonsense!" Fang Cai pointed at his mustache and shouted decisively, "I asked just now that there seems to be a faint smell of blood, why didn't you admit it from the beginning? Do you have to be sneaky?! In my opinion, those wandering outside The walking corpse that refuses to leave may be deliberately attracted by you with this head!"

"If I just admitted that I have a head by my side, will you allow me to hide here?"

The young man asked him seriously, his slightly delicate eyebrows and eyes also calmed down, and he said calmly: "Besides, the corpses around us are not because of this head, but because of the black curse marks on everyone's bodies. If you don't believe me, look outside, the curse marks on our bodies The marks have dissipated, and the walking corpses are no longer rushing in."

Zhuang Qingliu's eyes flashed, these two sentences really make sense.Everyone in the corner also looked out subconsciously, and sure enough, the walking corpses had moved away from the stone room, and all rushed towards a person in the center, where arms and legs flew out from time to time.

Mei Hualan looked at Zhuang Qingliu at this moment: "What do you think?"

"I think he's just talking nonsense, but I don't have any proof." Zhuang Qingliu blurted out without hesitation, and then looked up and down at the ragged boy, "Forget it, let's just pretend that what he said is true..."

Mei Hualan suddenly turned to the boy and asked, "You said you are an ordinary person living nearby?"

The boy looked at her and nodded calmly: "Yes."

"Can you tell me your first and last name? How old is it? Where do you live?"

The boy quickly replied: "My name is Zheng Zhao. I am 17 years old from Luoxia Village in the southern suburbs of Xuanzhou City. My family has been hunters for generations. My father died half a year ago because of falling off a cliff. My mother is not in good health. Besides me, there is a younger sister in my family." .”

Zhuang Qingliu turned her head to see a communication talisman ignited in Meihualan, and quickly asked her: "Can these be verified?"

"Okay, soon." Mei Xiaohan's voice sounded from the opposite side of the talisman, "Wait a moment."

In Meizhou, Mei Xiaohan not only presided over the compilation, but she was responsible for sorting out almost all the scrolls of foreign affairs, and also shouldered the important task of sending messages to the disciples in the sect for help at any time. Although the matter of confirming a person's identity as an ordinary person in the vast crowd is not recorded in the dossier, there are many ways to check it, such as opening the virtual world.

Within half a cup of tea, Mei Xiaohan's voice came again: "Hua Lan, Senior Zhuang, there is indeed such a person in Luoxia Village in Xuanzhou City, there is no mistake or inappropriate, and there is still a child in his family. A hound."

There is no mistake means that what is said is true, and "it is not inappropriate" is Mei Xiaohan's euphemism, which probably means that the boy's life is very ordinary and there is nothing unusual about it.

Zhuang Qingliu looked into the arms of the boy named Zheng Zhao, and finally confirmed: "What color is the hunting dog?"

Mei Xiaohan: "Black."

Well, they are all right, although the idea of ​​burying someone with a head is still very strange, but it seems that there are too many messy things today, and their suspicions are at work.

Zhuang Qingliu rubbed the center of his eyebrows, and said to Mei Xiaohan, "Okay, we got it, thank you."

Before Mei Xiaohan said anything, Mei Hualan had already waved her hand and received the talisman.

"The curse and corpse poison on your body are no longer a serious problem, and the enchantment of the tomb passage on the left has also been opened. You can go out. After a short rest, you can leave by yourself."

After Zhuang Qingliu took a last look at the young man in rags, he and Mei Hualan left the stone room: "Remember not to touch the things in the coffin again, and stay here if there are no more fraudulent corpses."

Everyone dared to say thank you in a hurry, then quickly got up and ran away from this ghostly place.

Zhuang Qingliu and Mei Hualan turned to the stone room upstairs, Mei Siji had just lit a fire talisman, knelt down and looked at the broken corpses silently: "These people are annoying, but they just died so quietly here-"

She didn't go on talking here, but her mood was obviously a little low.It can be seen that things like dead people will not become numb after seeing more, but will be more easily touched.

Mei Hualan, who has always been ignorant of caring for the younger generation, patrolled around peacefully, then lowered her eyes, and patted Mei Siji on the shoulder twice, stingily showing a little elder look that she didn't usually have.

Maybe Mei Siji was flattered, and immediately she didn't hurt anyone else. She stood up and walked sideways: "Mr. Duanzhu, everything... has been dealt with. After we leave, this place will be temporarily sealed by an enchantment until we leave." People who are traveling nearby rushed over to clean up."

"Okay." Mei Hualan didn't have any extra words, and directly picked up Zhuang Qingliu, and flew up from the entrance of the cave that she came down just now, "Let's go."

"...Wait!" Zhuang Qingliu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he turned his head in mid-air, "Let's go now? There's another..."

Mei Hualan: "Don't worry about her, she will be fine."

As soon as the words fell, the two small water radishes in Zhuang Qingliu's arms fell down again, and she immediately shouted: "Wait, Mei Pan, fish for me quickly, I still want to eat these radishes."

The breezy Mr. Mei made a deft turn from mid-air without saying a word, and with a flick of his sleeve, he caught the carrot.

As soon as the two landed on the ground, the silver hairband that Zhuang Qingliu had casually wrapped around her head just now was blown away by the wind—her big meatballs had already been sacrificed to the dog, and her hair, which had finally grown thick, was only shoulder height. It was okay when it was tied up just now, but now it is uneven when it is loosened, like a sheep bleating.

Mei Siji who came out immediately turned pale with shock: "Senior Zhuang? Why is your hair like this?! Where is your hair!"

"...you can say it."

After Zhuang Qingliu lowered his head and flicked it casually for a few times, he suddenly ignited an unused fire talisman. Yigao boldly took the fire and scorched the ends of his hair, and wrapped the floating lamp around Fengrui, making it slim The tip of her sword was used as a curling iron, and she made herself a fashionable and charming pear blossom perm like a tornado.

After finishing the perm, the ravaged/ravaged hair tail curled up in place in the breeze, and tremblingly pulled out a small curl.

……

Meihualan didn't move for a long time, her eyes seemed to fall on it, and she couldn't pick it up.

Zhuang Qingliu raised her head... Take back what she was going to ask about "Is it good?" Needless to say, it must not be good, but she can only save it for this part, try her best.

"Okay, Mei Pan...Mei Pan? Mei Mei? Duan Zhujun?" Zhuang Qingliu shouted, "I've come back to my soul, let's go to Pei's mansion to have a look."

Mei Hualan seemed to have something to say, and after hesitantly glanced at Zhuang Qingliu's profile, she still didn't say anything, and led the way first: "Let's go."

After half a day, the three of them finally returned to the city again, and arrived at a remote abandoned house in front of the gate.

"I heard that when Pei Xuan's family was stationed here, they were quite popular among the people. On the night of the fire, half of the sky was burned red. Don't go in."

"It is said that the house of Pei's mansion was pasted with a talisman and a barrier was set up that night. With the courtyard wall as the boundary, no one inside can get out, and nothing outside can get in."

So the fire burned all night from sunset, and when the people of the same race rushed over the next day, the inside had been burned to the point that only sparks were left, and most of the charred bones were curled up by the wall in despair, maintaining Looking at the posture eager to crawl out, the snow-white stretched skeleton like the one Mei Siji lay on has very little. He should have found a place to avoid the fire, but died of the smoke.

Zhuang Qingliu patrolled around, only to see a poplar tree just in the outer courtyard wall on the west side of Pei's mansion, which is blooming at the moment, and when the wind blows, it will slowly turn around and fall down.

Mei Hualan looked sideways at her side face for a while, and then asked aloud, "Go in and have a look?"

Zhuang Qingliu stood outside and looked at it for a moment, then shook his head: "The place where the old soul is sad, it's better not to set foot in the dust." After she finished speaking, she raised a finger and pointed upwards.

Mei Siji immediately raised her head in doubt: "What do you mean? What's in the sky? What's wrong?"

Mei Hualan glanced at her, stretched out her arms, and led her up the tree lightly. The two of them sat side by side on a branch full of poplar flowers.

Zhuang Qingliu turned his head to look at Mei Hualan's face, suddenly smiled lightly, and handed her a carrot.

The two climbed up the tree for no reason, and started eating carrots?

"?" Mei Siji looked up for a while, tipped her toes, and tried to go up, but Zhuang Qingliu waved her hand suddenly without turning her head, and let the poplar tree at hand hook Mei Siji for a split.

"……How is this going??"

Mei Siji was pulled by her hair and landed on her back, almost flying in fright.This has never happened to her before, and she immediately stretched out her hand to untie the branch in amazement: "Could it be contagious to pull hair?!"

"Didn't I tell you before, when I was in the woods, my hair was really entangled by Grandpa Zhang himself." Zhuang Qingliu bit the radish, as if thinking about something, "The old man probably didn't want me to go down at that time Let's muddle the waters—it's not true, if you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer immediately, and your hair will be gone in a blink of an eye."

Mei Siji: "...Camphor, camphor tree...Grandpa Zhang??"

"Yeah, I asked Grandpa Yang to say hello to you again?" Zhuang Qingliu tilted his head slightly, the tails of his eyes fluttered, and the poplar branch next to him seemed to come alive immediately, and he licked Mei Siji's hair in a coquettish manner.

Mei Siji's whole body exploded and drifted back three feet—what's the matter with this person? !How can a demon spread every day!

And Mr. Duanzhu, what happened?Sitting side by side with a flower spirit on a flowering tree and eating radishes, is this... the appearance of doing business? !

Just as Mei Siji's mentality was on the verge of shattering, a magic talisman slowly floated up from among the poplar trees and burned in the air. Mei Xiaohan immediately called out via voice transmission: "Hua Lan, Senior Zhuang."

Zhuang Qingliu felt something in his heart: "What's wrong?"

Mei Xiaohan cut to the chase: "I just received the news that the entire Shangzi Pei family's land boundary is suddenly not peaceful, and evil spirits, evil spirits and sacrifices have occurred in various places one after another."

So what they encountered today may just happen to be one of them.

Zhuang Qingliu's eyes fell on the dilapidated house in front of him, and he asked calmly, "Where are the Pei family stationed everywhere?"

"That's what I'm going to tell you."

I don't know if it's because the communication talisman is not very useful if it is too far away, Mei Xiaohan's voice lowered a little erratically, and he said almost paradoxically: "Almost all the Xianmen Pei's family stationed in the city in the Shangzi land, all of them were killed overnight. All disappeared."
