A Sword Through the Nine Heavens

Chapter 572: The Curse of Mr. Zhao

Views:

"He, he doesn't know."

The middle-aged man's face was full of nervousness, and there was a small amount of sweat on his forehead, as if the four words "Mr. Zhao" were like a taboo name that should not be mentioned.

"No! He remembers whether Mrs. Zhao lives in that village, right?" Although Mu Yu is a roadie, Xiao Fei described the village's appearance and geographical location clearly at that time, and he felt that he could not make a mistake.

"He really doesn't know, he doesn't want to die!"

The middle-aged man seemed to have remembered something terrible, shuddered, and then ran away, even throwing away the hoe with his legs.

"Hey, I didn't even take my hoe! Why are you running? He won't eat me." Mu Yu shouted from behind strangely.

But the middle-aged man ran so fast that he turned in behind a small courtyard and disappeared.

Mu Yu continued to walk into the village and asked several villagers in succession, and found that their reactions were the same as the middle-aged man just now. They were frightened and did not dare to say anything, so they ran away like a plague.

"Are those villagers too timid? Mu Yu is sure that I am a handsome man. They were scared away by me. He came to ask them." Xiao Shuai jumped on Mu Yu's shoulder and said.

"Don't make trouble. As soon as I opened my mouth, they looked at me in surprise for a long time, so I stopped talking. They are different. It's normal to be a little scared when encountering such weird things."

Mu Yu glanced at the villagers passing by, hesitating whether to give some money in exchange for the news. However, he suspected that the villagers did not understand the meaning of the spirit stones, and he did not have any money, so that would be a problem. .

He walked around the village house and walked to the edge of a rice field. An old man with a short beard was walking on the edge of the field and sighing.

"Old man, why are you sighing? Is the harvest bad?" Mu Yu walked beside the old man. He planned to get close to him first and become familiar with him, otherwise he would scare Old Mrs. Zhao away when he asked questions later.

The short-bearded old man, known as Lao Xutou, looked gloomy. He raised his head and glanced at Mu Yu and said, "The young man is very unfamiliar. Where did he come from?"

"I was passing by from a foreign country. Why did he see the old man sighing just now?" Mu Yu showed a harmless smile.

Old Xutou sighed again and said: "The growth of the crops next year is not optimistic. I don't know where a new type of pest comes from. I can't kill it. I can just watch them destroying the crops."

Mu Yu glanced at the rice and found some pests that were smaller than mosquitoes lying on the rice ears. Many rice ears had already been eaten away.

"No, the dead leaf monster mosquito, I really like that thing. It eats everything." Xiaoshuai recognized the rice pest at a glance.

"If you eat everything, doesn't that disown me?" Long Teng said with a smile.

"Is he handsome?"

The Dead Leaf Demon Mosquito is a first-order monster. It is very small and likes to live in groups. To avoid them, the best way is to use the scent of cordyceps flowers to expel them. Doing that kind of thing, Mu Yu would have to use his legs again.

"Old man, he has a way to drive away those pests." Mu Yu said confidently.

"Young man, don't amuse the old man. They have tried everything. I don't look like a farmer at my young age. How can I know those things?" Old Xu shook his head.

Mu Yu didn't shut up. With a touch of his legs, a cordyceps flower appeared on his legs. He planted the cordyceps flowers at the head of the field with a smile, then bounced his legs slightly, and the fragrance of the cordyceps flowers suddenly spread out.

"Buzz!"

All the dead leaf monster mosquitoes suddenly flew up from the rice fields in panic and fled in all directions, avoiding the smell of the cordyceps flowers. In just a few moments, all the dead leaf monster mosquitoes would have run away cleanly.

With a flick of the wooden feather leg, all the gnawed rice came back to life. He patted his legs in the east, thinking that he was really a good friend of the farmer's uncle. He could not only eliminate pests, but also help grow crops. Where could he find such an all-around good young man

"Then -" Old Xu opened his mouth wide in shock.

"Old man, that plant is called Cordyceps sinensis flower. If you plant it there, no dead leaf monster mosquitoes will come within a mile, so I must not pull it out." Mu Yu kindly reminded.

"Boy, how did I know—oh my god! Thanks, boy."

Old Xu Tou was so pleasantly surprised that he even went east to check on the status of his rice. Those gnawed rice plants had healed long ago and even grew fuller.

"Even the ears of rice that were eaten grew back? How could that happen?" Old Xu Tou touched the ears of rice in his legs in disbelief, unable to believe what he saw.

"Oh, yes, I forgot to mention it. Cordyceps flowers are natural enemies of those pests and can repair plants eaten by those pests." Mu Yu realized that he seemed to have gone too far and started talking nonsense.

"Oh my god! The old man doesn't even know how to thank me." The scowl on Old Xutou's face disappeared, his frown relaxed, and he seemed to look much younger.

"Old man, he has a question that he would like to ask for advice on. I will tell him the details and treat him as a reward." Mu Yu said with a smile.

"Don't worry, if the young man has any questions, just ask him. He will definitely not hide it." Old Xu went to promise.

"I heard that Mr. Zhao from our village came back from the dead. What happened?" Mu Yu asked.

"Hey-"

Old Xu Tou gasped, his face immediately turned red with fright, and like everyone else, he ran away. But he ran for two steps, stopped again, hesitated for a long time, looked around, walked over and whispered: "Young man, why do I ask that? Don't talk nonsense about that matter."

"Why can't you talk nonsense?" Mu Yu asked puzzledly.

Even if a person comes back from the dead and scares mortals, it's not to the point where he can't even talk about it, right

"You can't say anything about the burning thing. If you say it, you will die suddenly." "Old Xutou said with a pale face, "The big-mouthed Wang Erniang at the head of the village ignored the lessons learned from the past. A few days ago, a group of immortal masters heard about the incident and came to inquire about the situation. Wang Erniang quickly said it, but she was very They fell to the ground and died without saying a few words. They were all cursed by Mr. Zhao, and they would be taken away by him once they told the story of the day. "

curse

Is Mu Yu really getting more and more curious, telling a ghost story might kill him

"It goes without saying, can I write it out?" Mu Yu said helplessly.

Old Xu shook his head: "The old man is illiterate, how can he write!"

Mu Yu looked at Old Xu Tou carefully, and he found that there seemed to be some strange and vague aura surrounding Old Xu Tou. His heart suddenly shuddered, and he suddenly grabbed Old Xu Tou's leg.

"Young man, what should I do?" Old Xu Tou was frightened by Mu Yu's movements. How could he, a mortal, resist Mu Yu? He couldn't get away even if he struggled.

Mu Yu frowned slightly: "I was attacked by a vicious formation. It's strange! Who else can be so cruel!"

Mu Yu didn't check it carefully at first, but it was only now that he discovered something good.

There was a trace of gray energy that was difficult to detect in Old Xu Tou's eyes. The gray energy was very concealed and similar to the aura of the ghost sect, but it was not the aura of the ghost sect. It existed in the form of formations. Under certain conditions, that His anger was enough to kill Old Xu Tou.

"What kind of formation? The old man can't hear Hong Hong. He knows that they were cursed by Dong Luo, so he has to keep secret about the wrong thing to survive." Old Xu Tou said in a panic.

"Old man, have I felt a heaviness in my chest for a while, as if I was pressing on a stone? My breathing would often become very irritable, my eyes would sometimes be sore, and when I looked at things, I would even find that I couldn't see other colors, only stuff. Gray." Mu Yu asked seriously.

Old Xu Tou was completely stunned: "I, how do I know? To be honest, when he sees me now, I am completely black and red."

Mu Yu touched Dongba, and a very insidious formation technique was used on Lao Xu's head. The gray energy in his body was the formation pattern. That formation technique was called the Lost Heart Formation, which was specially used on people , can activate the formation technique at a certain moment to kill people.

Is there any record of the Lost Heart Formation in the Formation Pavilion of the Formation Sect? Is it listed as a forbidden technique? Because it is too vicious, disciples outside the sect are generally not allowed to practice that kind of formation technique.

Mu Yu has learned many forbidden techniques. Although he has never actually implemented many forbidden techniques, he will never admit his mistakes based on his judgment.

"There is indeed a so-called curse in my body. Once I say something I shouldn't say, something will happen immediately." Mu Yu let go of Lao Xu Tou's leg.

Old Xu Tou was so frightened that his face turned pale: "He said he couldn't tell it. Young man, I don't want to ask about that matter. I got rid of the rice pests for him. The old man is very grateful to me, but the old man really can't do it." Help me with something."

"Old man, don't worry! He has a way to get rid of that curse." Mu Yu said solemnly.

"I, I have a way to remove the curse? Are you an immortal?" Old Xu Tou asked in surprise.

Mu Yu nodded, and the chaotic yin and yang qi swept out of his body instantly, covering Lao Xutou's body. Old Xu Tou exclaimed, because the chaotic yin and yang brought him into the air.

Then black and red formations merged into Lao Xutou's body. With a slight vibration, Lao Xutou felt as if some shackles had been opened, and the stone pressing on his heart disappeared. Gone.

"That, that's good?"

Old Xu's head slowly fell to the ground. He touched his chest and rubbed his eyes. He found that the soreness in his eyes had disappeared. He was immediately happy and bowed his head to express his gratitude. Mu Yulian went to help him up.

"I can tell him the situation now. Don't worry, nothing will happen if I tell you that time. He promises." Mu Yu said.

Old Xu Tou hesitated for a long time. Although the strangeness that had troubled him in recent days had disappeared, he was still doubtful. After all, it was difficult to say accurately about that kind of thing.

But he took a look at the rice he planted and touched his chest. Remembering that he had been taken into the air just now, he knew without even thinking whether Mu Yu was a powerful immortal master, and nodded immediately.

"Forget it, the old man is willing to go all out, just tell me. Mr. Zhao is a very old man in their village. After he died, according to the rules, the whole village went to the funeral. The whole village took Old Man Zhao's The coffin was sent to the Mass Burial Valley and pushed eastward.

Originally they were planning to return, but who would have thought that Old Man Zhao's coffin suddenly rose from the bottom of the valley, and then the coffin opened automatically, and he actually stood up from the coffin, which frightened them all! Everyone thought that he would die with his eyes open because he had a group of unfilial descendants. Could it be that old man Zhao had a terrible black energy gushing out from his body and directly killed his three sons and all the descendants of the Zhao family. It's so terrible, all those people are gone! "

Mu Yu frowned. According to Old Xu Tou's description, the death method of those people was very similar to that of the Ghost Sect, but the mass burial valley did not have the atmosphere left by the Ghost Sect, and it seemed to have nothing to do with the Ghost Sect.

"Did Mr. Zhao say anything?" Mu Yu continued to ask.

Old Xu calmed down and continued: "After Old Man Zhao killed his descendants, he laughed loudly. The laughter was very scary, as if he was grinding his teeth. When he came from the east, he mistakenly said to them that Ru Ming's seal-"

Lao Xu suddenly covered his mouth with his head, and at the same time his eyes widened, looking extremely frightened. The veins on his face were protruding, and his whole body was stretched straight!

Mu Yu's heart skipped a beat, what's going on? Could it be that the heart-wrenching formation has not been completely lifted
