Chapter 489: Vital Gate
Otherwise, she wouldn't have approached me as a rookie. After all, how much help can a rookie do?
As we talked, the two of us walked back to Duanmei’s home.
Invite the old Miao woman to sit down for a while and explain everything clearly, as well as what you need my help with?
Explain everything clearly first. It is always better to have a way to solve the problem than to have a blank view.
To this day, I don't know what to do.
The old woman was an acquaintance and followed me to Duanmei's house.
I didn't expect that he and the man in the suit were old acquaintances, and the two of them nodded.
Although he didn't say hello, his attitude made me understand that the two of them knew each other.
I really want to ask the man in the suit, how did he know this old woman?
What kind of relationship do the two people have?
But the man in the suit looked at the two of us and returned to the house.
He's not going to sit here and listen to what the two of us have to say?
His evasive attitude made me understand something.
I guess he didn't want to get himself involved in another thing.
That's why I went to hide in the house. Is it good or bad that I promised the old woman? Is this decision a little too hasty?
I already had some doubts about myself at this moment, but there was no turning back when I fired my bow.
If you agree to this old lady today and decide to make this deal with him, you won't regret it anymore.
I sighed and stretched my shoulders.
After greeting the old woman and sitting on the sofa, I didn't pour him any water.
Anyway, we two have serious business to talk about, so there is no need to be so polite.
The old lady was not an ink-setter, so she nodded to me.
He took out a palm-sized metal cage from his arms.
This cage looks old and very delicate.
It should be worth a lot of money, and the old lady probably didn't expect that my attention would be on the cage itself.
But regarding the contents of his cage, he shook his head helplessly, but did not criticize me for anything.
Finally, he opened the cage and took out a finger-long centipede.
Looking at this finger-long centipede, I felt panicked.
Can't tell why?
Normally, children who grew up in the countryside.
Centipedes, snakes, and various insects are often seen.
I never thought I was afraid of these things before.
But when I saw this centipede, I felt a little scared.
"Do you think you are a little scared of this centipede?"
I nodded. The old woman's question really touched my heart.
Why do I feel afraid of him? I was filled with doubts.
I guess the old woman must know the reason?
I just don’t know if he is willing to tell me. Fortunately, this old woman is also a straightforward person.
I had no intention of hiding it. After putting the centipede on the table, I found it under the sun.
The whole centipede shines with a red sheen.
This glossy red gives the centipede a mysterious color.
I now understand why I have a fear of this centipede?
This centipede is definitely not a simple centipede, if it is an ordinary centipede.
Why under the sun. Is there this red metallic sheen?
You must know that things with a metallic luster must at least be refined.
"Mother-in-law, this centipede is probably old, right? Could it be that it has already become a spirit?"
The old woman shook her head. She was an open-minded person and told me without hesitation.
"Otherwise, this thing should be able to turn into a human by now."
Is it possible that this sentence is true?
I've heard it said to me before,
But I never paid much attention to it.
You can’t say that I have ideological and moral problems, but whoever hears this kind of thing will forget it in the blink of an eye?
No one thought that this sentence would mean anything to these mountain spirits.
It's really like a seal, cutting off the possibility of them turning into human form.
"Okay, let's not look at this thing for now. It's time to get down to business. These things should be Miao Jiang's Gu magic. The final trump card is that the spiritual world is in chaos now. In the future, some things will directly rush into Miao Jiang. It will affect Miao Jiang's The Gu Master went on a killing spree, you know society is developing so fast now, even the children in the village have to go out to school."
I nodded. It is true that the social situation now is completely different from that in the past.
If you don't go to school to learn literacy, you will be completely out of touch with society.
But once people become literate when they go to school, they will become arrogant and arrogant, and they will not look down on the three acres of land at home.
Therefore, the villages in Miao territory cannot retain people at all.
Could it be those who went to school and never went back, but this is considered normal.
I looked directly at the old woman, waiting for his next words.
He was quite straightforward. After patting me on the shoulder, he spoke to me helplessly.
"The current situation in Miao territory can be said to be quite bad, because Gu insects are the result of the negativity in the world and the killing."
Well, no wonder I have a sense of fear and a deep-seated disgust at this thing.
It turns out that he is a condensation of the negative emotions in the world and killing.
The things in the Miao border are inherently magical.
Isn't it that if you go south, there are still some sorcerers in Southeast Asia after you go abroad?
Anyway, I only have a vague understanding of these things.
There is no detailed record in the book of the blind grandfather. Even if it is detailed, I will not pay special attention to it. Recently, I have been studying calligraphy-related content.
You should know that what I want to do most now is to save my life.
Lest I lose my life directly due to a little negligence.
If I lose my life due to a momentary negligence, it is really not worth it.
This is the most intuitive thought in my mind. The old lady muttered beside me and said a lot of things.
In the final analysis, it is still urging to solve the problem of the last bus of No. 14.
It would be best if I could help the spirit world Fengdu and settle the matter of Wangchuan.
I looked at the old woman helplessly, and wanted to tell her, you think too highly of me, right?
What level am I at? Can't I know it myself?
If I can evaluate the affairs of the spirit world Fengdu, would I still be bullied so badly by Jin Suocheng every day?
I have already killed Jin Suocheng dozens of times.
"You think too highly of me. As for how this matter will be handled in the end? None of us has a definite answer. Let's take it one step at a time. Don't rush me, okay?"
I said weakly. The old woman saw my attitude.
