Chapter 18 Temporary Stay

I slowly got up after that guy left. Although I was better than before, I could no longer use Taoist techniques.

I don’t know if I will encounter danger on the way down the mountain, so I can only rely on Zhang Qiling to help.

Xiaodie supported me, and we also began to walk slowly outside. The road down the mountain was naturally not as difficult as going up the mountain. But when we lowered our heads, we couldn't help but feel a little weak in our legs when we saw the foot of the mountain close to the vertical.

We took nearly three hours to go up the mountain, but more than an hour to go down the mountain. The mountain road is actually not too far, but the slope is a bit steep and we dare not be too fast.

Zhang Qiling sighed and turned around and asked, "Girl, I wonder which sect you are from Miaojiang?"

Xiaodie, who was walking in front of me, heard it and replied, "I am just an ordinary person, no sect, and the thing just now was actually given to me by someone. She said that I could wear it, so I could use it when necessary. I saw that it would not be a loss to me, so I just wore it."

Zhang Qiling didn't say anything, but I knew that he was interested in that person just like me. Since she could let Xiaodie wear that, it means she knew we would be in danger.

Moreover, this Linfen ointment was originally a secret technique of Miaojiang. I heard that it had been lost a hundred years ago.

When the demons find us, it means that they may have taken action, and things in these three realms seem to be destined to happen.

We returned to my grandfather's house again and hurriedly put on our coats. My grandfather was roasting a fire and was holding a dry tobacco gun in his mouth.

Seeing us back, he hurriedly got up and asked, "How is the matter done? Is it going well?"

Zhang Qiling smiled and said proudly, "With my ten thousand religions, there is nothing that I can't do. But this corpse-raising site cannot be resolved, and it still cannot snow in this place."

"What does it matter if you solve those beasts and don't snow?"

"That's right, this matter has been done, but we have discovered another thing that may have to disturb you for a few days."

"Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay, you helped our village and stay as long as you want."

Although my grandfather agreed, I disagree. The matter has been done, why do I have to stay for a few more days? At that time, he just asked us to help, and he couldn't regret it if he helped.

I sighed, got up and pulled Xiaodie to leave. Zhang Qiling smiled and said, "If you think we can go out, you can try it. This trap has entered, and it doesn't seem that easy to leave."

"Trail? The bandits have been eliminated, so where does the trap come from?"

"Haha, it's late at night now, and dogs don't bark and cats don't chirp. Don't you find it strange? And it's so late, where can we go? Why not stay for a night first, and the truth will come out tomorrow."

I lowered my head and thought, and what he said was indeed correct. The three of us passed by the village and came to our grandfather's house. The dog was originally a sensory animal, and this stranger would definitely scream twice when he passed by.

But when I came here just now, there was no movement at all. Every household had a close door, no sound of dogs, and even the shadow of a cat could not be seen.

Grandpa sighed, got up and went back to the room, and Zhang Qiling naturally followed him into the room.

I turned around and looked around, but I didn't find anything strange.

Suspiciously, he had to go into the house and lie down first.

It was very cold at night, so I wrapped the quilt with Xiaodie.

The injuries on the body are originally yin. If they are too hot, my yang energy will dissipate faster.

I looked at Xiaodie who was sleeping beside me, dragged off her clothes and wore her pants. Although it was cold, I felt that the yin energy was fixed at a point and it did not increase.

The next morning, I opened my eyes and had a blanket covered myself with my body. I used my spiritual power slightly and found that I had recovered a lot.

Xiaodie sat aside, combing her hair, wearing thin clothes. I sighed, rubbed my eyes and got up, and took the coat from the head of the bed to put it on her.

Just as I was about to go out, I heard a sound of conversation coming from outside. Although I was listening carefully, I still couldn't understand.

I opened the door and walked out the door and asked Zhang Qiling, "Is something happened in the village?"

Zhang Qiling shook his head and said, "The three animals in the village are all dead. I heard that two more updaters have died."

"Is there a refuel in this village?"

This is too behind.

"I don't know very well, but we have to go and see. All three animals died overnight, and this is a big deal."

I turned around and went back to the room. I wanted to leave Xiaodie in the room, but I was afraid that she would encounter any danger, so I had to take her with me.

As soon as I arrived at the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village, I saw the villagers gathered together. Zhang Qiling sighed and squeezed in from the crowd. After a while, the villagers all dispersed.

I saw the ground full of corpses of cats and dogs, but there was no cow. I turned to look at a young man beside me and asked, "How many three animals died in this village?"

He blinked at me and said in a mouthful of not particularly fluent Mandarin, "Our village head died last night, and more than 30 cats died. This cow alone did not see more than fifty heads. Are you so strange?"

"That means that only the corpses of dogs and cats were found, and no corpses of cows were found, right?"

The young man nodded and left the scene. I thought about it carefully for a long time, but I couldn't figure out what was going on.

Zhang Qiling looked at it for a long time and came back soon. He sighed and said, "These beasts were scared to death. I really don't know what it is so terrible."

"Do you think it's related to the demon race? The villagers lost the cow and said they were dead, but they couldn't even find the body."

"It's possible, but there's no basis for this."

"There is a corpse-raising site next to it, and it is not strange to generate spirits in animals. The demons are recruiting soldiers and horses. You can tell that they are a family with this cow when they look at the two horns on it."

"What do you mean is that the cattle in this village were taken away by the demons?"

"It's definitely right, otherwise there's something else that can scare the cat and the dog's courage."

Zhang Qiling didn't say anything anymore, but kept lowering his head. The villagers cursed for a long time, and then slowly dispersed.

The bandits did not go down to the village, which means that the village had not been attacked yet. The two dead merchants should have known what they were killed.

As soon as the three of us were about to turn around, an old man walked towards us. Judging from his appearance, he should be the village chief of this village.

He bent down to salute us slightly, lowered his head and said, "Three benefactors who should be here to save our village, right? I heard that the things on the mountain have been removed. Thank you very much."
