The villain is ill

Pushing aside the vines, Chu Mo walked into the small courtyard and closed the door behind him.

The yard is not big, but it is fairly clean. A gravel path leads to several rooms at the foot. There are a pile of wooden toys for children in the atrium. The wood has turned yellow and black from the wind and sun, exuding The smell of decay.

There is a bluestone slab under the courtyard wall in the southwest corner. Under the slab is the well that Jinfeng mentioned, and there is nothing unusual from a distance.

Just as Chu Mo was about to get closer, he suddenly heard a clicking sound coming from the east wing.

"Master, there's something in there!" Jin Feng exclaimed in surprise, "But I came in just now and clearly didn't see anything."

Chu Mo didn't move, just listened carefully, and said to Jin Feng, "Go in and have a look."

"Okay." The golden phoenix flapped its wings and flew towards the sound.

After a while, Jinfeng came back and replied: "It's just a group of gray mice, biting the clothes at home."

"Well. Did they see you?" Chu Mo asked.

Jin Feng raised his head, "No, they are still quite vigilant. When I entered, a mouse looked towards this side. It was strange to say that its eyes were red, and it looked rather fierce. But I went in stealthily, and they didn't look at it." to me."

Jinfeng was still very confident in her reconnaissance ability, but unexpectedly Chu Mo turned around and left after hearing this. He hurriedly asked, "Master, don't you see what's in the well?"

"Come back another day."

Chu Mo opened the door and went out, squeezed the lock from the air and pressed lightly, and the lock closed again.He jumped onto the roof, but before he could stand still, he saw the thin woman holding a lantern appearing at the corner of the courtyard wall.

The woman hurriedly walked to the small door, picked up the lock and looked carefully, and saw that it was not damaged, and it was still hanging. She was slightly relieved, took out the key, opened the lock and went in.

Chu Mo stood on the roof for a while, but the woman hadn't come out yet. At this time, the excitement in the front hall had dissipated, and Fan Laoer was leading Qingtang to the backyard. He jumped up and swept back to the room directly from the roof.

After returning to the room, Chu Mo did not turn on the lamp again, but took off his shoes and sat on the bed to meditate and adjust his breath.

It wasn't until Chu Mo's two big Zhoutians finished adjusting their breaths that Jin Feng still hadn't figured it out, "Master, how did you know that woman would come back?"

"Of course it's because you're stupid." Xiaolu said, "She must have discovered you, don't you think so, master?"

"Yes." Chu Mo got up and got up.

"Impossible, I hid it well, how could she find out." Jin Feng retorted, but her tone was not so rigid, and her mind was in chaos. First of all, as a soul body, most formations are immune, Although the formation in that courtyard is exquisite, it is impossible to find it.

The problem can only come from... Jin Feng suddenly realized, "Could it be that the mouse found me? But how did it notify the woman?"

Chu Mo ignored Jinfeng's soliloquy, and Xiaolu fell asleep again after beating Jinfeng, leaving it alone to struggle.

In the middle of the night, there was loud gongs outside the courtyard, and the red light of the torches illuminated the whole village. There were knocking on the door, crying, and noise.

Chu Mo put on his shoes and walked out the door, just in time to meet Qingchuan Qingtang who also opened the door and came out.

"Mo Mo." Qing Chuan yawned, "What's going on outside?"

"What does Momo know? He just came out." Qingtang gave Qingchuan a blank look, "Go out and have a look."

The three of them went out to the front yard together. At this time, the gate was open, and dozens of villagers gathered in the yard. Their coats were draped over their shoulders, some of them didn't even wear shoes, and they each held torches and lanterns in their hands.The first few villagers were a family, men and women supported each other, as if the sky had collapsed, the women burst into tears, and the men also looked miserable and frowning.

Several male members of the Fan family stood on the steps to appease the villagers, making a lot of noise.

Not long after, someone shouted: "The village chief is here!"

Mr. Fan leaned on a cane and put on his clothes and walked up to the crowd. The leading villagers seemed to have found their backbone, and stepped forward to ask questions.

The man with the torch stepped forward and said: "Village chief, my son was fine when he slept last night, but he disappeared when I woke up today. Help me make the decision, my family has five generations and only one cub, if this is gone, how can I go down and meet my ancestors!"

The woman was crying so hard that she couldn't speak at all.

"These are fifteen children lost by our village. Could it be that the evil spirits are taking their lives? If this continues, our village will be wiped out!"

As soon as these words came out, the villagers with children at home were terrified. Just as Mr. Fan was comforting the villagers, Chu Mo behind the crowd noticed a figure walking by under the back porch. He pulled Qingtang and raised his hand towards him hint.

Qingtang turned his head and saw that Qingchuan had squeezed into the crowd, so he didn't call him, and followed that person together with Chu Mo.

The woman's footsteps were not fast, and the two quickly caught up with her. She was quite vigilant, and looked back after walking a few steps.

This time, she didn't go directly to the small door in the backyard, but turned around to the southeast corner of the compound, which was the back door of the whole house. She opened the door valve and opened the door inward.

A small figure stood impressively at the door.

It was a boy, about six or seven years old, wearing a blue singlet, standing outside the door with bare feet, his face was expressionless and his eyes were closed tightly, as if he was sleepwalking.

After the woman opened the door, the boy stepped in.

After closing the door, the woman went back, and the boy followed behind her with his eyes closed. The two of them walked to the small door in the backyard. The woman did not take out the key this time, but raised her hand to lock it. Knock the door.

Soon, the door opened from the inside.

"Did someone bring it?" A man's voice sounded, and it was Second Brother Fan's voice.

"Here we come." The woman moved aside, revealing the child behind her, "This time is dangerous, Tian Dazhu happened to wake up at night, and was almost discovered."

"come on in."

The door closed again, and there was no more sound.

At this time, the sound in the front hall had disappeared, and the villagers held torches to look for the child, and the yard was silent.

Qingtang watched the two of them finish their conversation without moving, still in disbelief.

After he returned to his room, he heard Qing Chuan tell him about the Fourth Ninth Ceremony that Chu Mo said. Come forward and ask for clarification.

Chu Mo grabbed Qingtang, "Calm down."

Qingtang took a deep breath, his eyes were a little red.

At this time, Qing Chuan, who noticed that the two were not there, came over, "You are here, why don't you call me when you come back?"

"Who else is there?" Chu Mo asked.

"They all went to look for the children, only the old village chief was still sitting in the main room. I saw that he was dazed and didn't know what to think, so he came to the back to look for you." Qing Chuan replied.

"I'm fine." At this time Qing Chuan said, looking at the small door again, "Go in and have a look."

Chu Mo took out two hidden jade talismans, gave each of Qingchuan and Qingtang one, and then went to push the door.

The door was locked with a valve from the inside, and it couldn't be pushed open. Chu Mo exerted his strength lightly, and only heard a slight click, and the door was completely dismantled.

Qing Chuan was startled, his eyes lit up looking at Chu Mo, and he opened his mouth to admire, but Qing Tang held his mouth down.

Chu Mo looked in and saw no one, so he motioned for the two to come in, and then reinstalled the door.

"There is a formation here, you follow in my footsteps." Chu Mo walked in front, and Qingchuan Qingtang knew how to keep up.

Entering the small courtyard, one of the rooms was lit, and voices could be heard.

"This is too slow. There are only a dozen or so, and the villagers are already scared out of their wits. If there are more, the families with children will move out sooner or later, and the process must be accelerated."

"It's not because you can't hold your breath. I told you not to throw the corpse into the pond. You didn't listen, but you insisted on throwing it. It made people panic. If they moved away, I wouldn't be alive anymore."

"I just can't see them. Why are all the children in our family dead? If it weren't for those two tigers pushing my daughter down, would the children be gone? They clearly heard the children shouting, why didn't they go to save them? I don't We should only peel their hearts, but also his skin!"

"Okay, master, don't be angry, why do you come here so fast?"

"The seventh day of next month is a good day. Bring all the children in the village to the back grave, and let's make a dojo."

"Can this work?"

"Sir said, there will be no problem."

"Okay, as long as Xiaobao comes back to life, we will move."

"Take this kid down and give it to Xiaobao to eat."

After all, the two went out one after the other, Mr. Fan still carried the boy in his second hand, the boy closed his eyes as if he was asleep, and did not move.

Walking to the edge of the well, the woman bent down and touched the edge of the well mouth, only to hear a slight sound, and the bluestone slab was slowly lifted, revealing the dark well mouth.

She walked to the edge of the well, and shouted to the bottom in a low voice: "Xiaobao, Xiaobao, mother has come down, quickly catch mother."

After shouting, she listened to the well, and then jumped down.

Fan Laoer also walked to the well, and when he lowered his head to shout, he suddenly felt a pain in the back of his head, and his eyes darkened and he passed out.

Chu Mo caught the unconscious child with one hand, checked it, and found that he was just asleep, so he handed him back to Qing Chuan, "Go on."

Qing Chuan hurriedly hugged the child, raised his foot and kicked Fan Er who was lying down, "Is he dead?"

"Just fainted."

At this time, the bluestone slab on the well had been lifted, exposing the dark mouth of the well. With Chu Mo's current cultivation level, he couldn't even see the bottom of the well.

"Master, I'll go down and have a look." Xiaolu volunteered.

"Go." Chu Mo replied.

Hearing the permission, Xiaolu climbed to the mouth of the well, hooked her tail to the edge of the well, and began to stretch her body downward, stretching towards the bottom of the well.

Qingtang and Qingchuan have seen Xiaolu before, so they are not surprised to see it come out, they just look at it expectantly.

After half a stick of incense, Xiaolu climbed up the edge of the well unsteadily, lying on top of it, paused, "vomit!"

Qing Chuan was in a hurry and couldn't wait to ask: "What's under there?"

Xiaolu looked up at him, then lowered her head again, "Ugh!"
