The sky gradually darkened.
A light was on in the room, and the bean-sized light shone on the window paper, allowing vague figures of people moving around in the room to be seen.
The sound of splashing water came from the house. After serving water to the customer, the waiter couldn't help but glance at the tightly closed doors and windows. His eyes were filled with sinister malice. He weighed the change in his hand and grinned silently.
Mu Xin was very happy to see the water in the tub, and asked, "Senior Sister, do you want to take a bath?"
"I won't wash, you wash, I'll guard here." Mu Ying said, and couldn't help but look in the direction of the door.
Zhang Zhezhen gave her a really bad feeling. The people here were filled with an unspeakable malice, as if the bright light of their souls was covered with a layer of gray, obscuring their humanity and turning them into pure evil.
She was worried about what might happen tonight and decided not to sleep and stay up until dawn.
Seeing her senior sister say this, Mu Xin did not force her and happily turned behind the screen.
There is a large bathtub behind the screen. Just now the waiter brought people to deliver hot water for bathing to each room. After a tiring journey, it is a good time to wash up.
The people in other rooms did the same, taking off their clothes and taking a shower.
After nightfall, Zhangzhe Town gradually became quiet. An unknown noise could be heard from afar. It seemed very far away, yet so close that it seemed difficult to hear clearly.
A wet stain appeared in the corridor of the inn.
The water stains meandered along the ground, and when they passed the first room in the corridor, they silently seeped in through the crack of the door.
As this water stain seeped into the house, it suddenly encountered something blocking its way.
The water stains could spread freely on the ground, but now, they couldn't go any further.
Two small white paper figures appeared in front of the crack in the door. They stretched out one foot and stepped on the water stain, looking down at the water stain that came out of nowhere.
The water stain seemed to have self-awareness. It realized that it was discovered by "someone" and was about to retreat. However, the little paper man reached out and pushed it away, and it couldn't retreat.
The water was originally shapeless and invisible, but somehow, under the control of the little paper man, it was gathered together and condensed into a drop of water.
The water drop was about the size of a soybean. It was picked up by a little paper man and ran behind the screen with a clattering sound.
Gu Jiu sat in the bathtub, steam rising from the water. Her delicate and picturesque eyebrows and eyes seemed covered with a halo in the mist.
Hearing the sound, she put on her glasses and saw two little paper figures holding a drop of water crawling to the edge of the bathtub. She reached out and touched them, then asked with a smile, "Where did this thing come from?"
One little paper man was holding a drop of water, and another little paper man was dancing, demonstrating the whole story to her.
Gu Jiu said, "So that's how it is."
She reached out and took the drop of water, stared at it for a moment, suddenly laughed, and put it away.
In a room of the inn, the innkeeper, waiter, cook, and others gathered together.
"Boss, why isn't the water reacting yet?" The waiter looked at the water in the copper basin. It didn't look like a mirror, and there weren't even any ripples. It looked like ordinary water.
The shopkeeper was also puzzled, "Maybe the water of the water monster hasn't seeped in yet."
"When?"
"You ask me, who should I ask?" the shopkeeper said in a bad tone, feeling very puzzled.
After nightfall, they delivered bathing water to the guests as usual. A drop of water from the water monster was mixed in the water. There was a sense of induction between water and water, and a water mirror would appear in the copper basin. They could spy on the guests in the room through the water mirror and even control the people in the room.
The water of the water monster they can control is limited, so they plan to use it to deal with the girl named Gu first.
Not only because she is the most beautiful, but also because she is obviously the leader of this group. As long as she is controlled, there is no need to worry about the others.
"Forget it, let's wait a little longer."
This wait lasted until late at night.
Everyone gathered together, staring at the copper basin, and found that the water in the copper basin still had no reaction, as if it was just a basin of ordinary water. If they hadn't been sure to add a drop of water demon water into it first, they would have thought it was ordinary water.
Everyone in the room was waiting anxiously.
The waiter asked hesitantly, "Boss, do you want to wait any longer?"
The shopkeeper took a look at the sky outside and finally made up his mind, "Maybe the power contained in the water monster's water is not enough, so don't use it, and use the second plan."
After hearing this, the people present skillfully took the tools used to commit the crime.
The waiter looked at the things prepared by the crowd. For some reason, his eyelids kept twitching. He felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in his heart. He said with some concern: "Shopkeeper, these people should be capable people with some skills. It would be bad to confront them directly, right?"
The first plan originally launched was to use the water of the water monster to control these people.
Water enters the house silently and leaves no trace. It can unexpectedly control the guests or even kill them.
Many monks who stayed in the inn did not know what happened until they died. They were controlled by something, which was why they dared to attack those monks.
But now the water of the water monster is gone forever, and without the tool for committing the crime, he is worried that the second plan will be useless against these people who practice Taoism.
The shopkeeper said confidently, "What are you afraid of? Our poison is not an ordinary thing. We bought it from the old demon of ten thousand poisons. It is said to be the body fluid of the old demon of ten thousand poisons. It is extremely powerful. Just one drop can pollute the water source within a hundred miles. Even cultivators cannot withstand its toxicity."
In the past, they could just use the water from the water monster to solve the problem of fat sheep staying overnight. But tonight, because the water from the water monster didn't work, they decided to use the second plan. This was also the first time they used this thing. Because of the reputation of the old monster of all poisons, they still believed in it.
The waiter thought about it and agreed, suppressing the inexplicable feeling of uneasiness in his heart.
A group of people came quietly to the guest rooms in the backyard of the inn.
They covered their faces and took antidote in advance. When the night wind blew, they blew the powder into the room. Once the powder came into contact with the air, it would poison everyone in the room in just a few breaths.
To be on the safe side, they put medicine in all five guest rooms where they were staying today.
Just as the medicine was put in, a sneeze sounded in the second room, and then the door opened and a loud curse sounded: "You bastards, what kind of dirty and smelly thing did you throw in here? Do you want to suffocate your father to death?"
The people who were poisoning were dumbfounded, watching the man rush out of the house and kick them out.
With a few bangs, the shopkeeper, the waiter and others were kicked into the yard and piled on the ground like a human pyramid.
Qin Huang was still not satisfied, so he picked up the people and started beating them, making them cry for their parents. They still couldn't understand why this person was not poisoned when the poison of the Ten Thousand Poisons Demon was so strong. Did they buy fake medicine
The door of the next door opened, and Gu Jiu, with her hair loose, came out. She leaned against the door and said, "Qin Huanghuang, go check on those Taoist priests to see if they have been poisoned."
Qin Huang left the shopkeeper who was beaten black and blue and went to check on the Taoist nuns.
In less than a minute, he ran back and said, "Miss, they were all poisoned. Fortunately, the poison was not serious. They were just bleeding from all seven orifices. They looked a little scary."
After hearing this, the shopkeeper was sure that the poison they bought was correct, but the effect did not seem to be very good. It could only make people bleed, but it did not kill them directly.
Could it be that the medicine seller exaggerated the poison of the old demon of all poisons
Gu Jiu glanced at these people and said, "During the day, I gave them detoxification pills. I think the detoxification pills offset some of the toxicity."
The detoxification pills in Wanjie City are naturally not omnipotent. They can detoxify ordinary poisons and miasma, but have little effect on some special poisons. At most, they can only resist some toxicity.
Judging from the innkeeper's expression, this poison should be some very powerful one.
Qin Huang grabbed the shopkeeper's collar and asked fiercely, "What kind of poison is this? Where is the antidote? Hand it over quickly, or I will peel off your skin."
He looks young and handsome, but unfortunately he has an arrogant personality and there is a hint of ferocity in his eyes. When he threatens people, he is even more vicious.
When a villain encounters a more evil star than himself, his momentum will be overwhelmed by the other party. The shopkeeper is an example of this. He trembled and said, "Yes, I bought the medicine from the old demon of ten thousand poisons. The antidote is here..."
Gu Jiu was very interested in this old demon of ten thousand poisons and asked about him.
When the poison in the nuns' bodies was almost removed, Gu Jiu also learned about the old demon of ten thousand poisons. Then she took out a drop of water. The drop of water trembled at her fingertips, and seemed to want to escape, but it could not escape the control of her fingertips.
Everyone in the inn was stunned.
It turns out that the water of the water monster was not useless, but was caught by someone. No wonder there was no reaction before.
Until this moment, the shopkeeper and others finally understood that the people who stayed here this time were not the low-level cultivators as in the past, but a group of evil spirits who were so powerful that even the poison of the Ten Thousand Poisons Demon could not do anything to them.
There are not many people in this world who can withstand the poison of the Ten Thousand Poisons Demon, and each of them is a powerful person guarding a place.
How could Zhang Zhezhen attract such a big shot
Not to mention how the innkeepers regretted their actions, Gu Jiu was very interested in the water monster water and asked, "Where did this thing come from?"
The shopkeeper dared not to answer, and said carefully: "We asked for it from the water monster in Biyin Lake."
Zhangzhe Town is a notorious town of evil people. The whole town is full of evil people. Under the protection of the old demon Zhang Yang, they have committed many evil deeds and killed countless people. In order to gain more benefits, they even choose to cooperate with demons and become accomplices of the evil.
Like the owner of this inn, he cooperated with the water fairy in Biyin Lake, obtained water from the water fairy, and offered a young and beautiful woman as a tribute to the water fairy every month.
It happened to be the beginning of the month, and it was time to offer tribute to the water monster, and the shopkeeper was looking for tribute.
Just then, Gu Jiu and his friends came to stay overnight. The shopkeeper took a liking to Gu Jiu at first sight. Later, when he saw that they were generous, he realized they were all fat sheep, so he decided to make a move.
Qin Huang looked incredulous, thinking that these people were really bold, "How dare you covet the young lady?"
Gu Jiu snorted and laughed, saying nonchalantly, "Let's go to Biyin Lake tomorrow to see. I also want to know how powerful this water monster is. It demands a young woman as a tribute every month."
They tied up all the people in the inn and threw them into the woodshed, leaving a few little paper figures to watch over them. Gu Jiu and Qin Huang went back to rest.
The episode had little effect on either man.
After dawn, the poisoned nuns finally woke up.
Feeling weak, they were all a little confused, until they listened to Gu Jiu and Qin Huang's explanation, they were frightened but also felt relieved at the same time.
Gu Jiu took out a bottle of Peiyuan Dan and asked them to take one.
Peiyuan Dan can consolidate and repair the essence. Soon after taking Peiyuan Dan, the feeling of weakness caused by poisoning subsided and the Taoist nuns felt refreshed.
"Ms. Gu, what should we do with those people?" Mu Ying asked. He had no good feelings towards the evil people who poisoned them.
"Kill him." Gu Jiu said lightly.
The nuns were stunned and looked at her in horror and hesitation.
Gu Jiu laughed, "They are just kidding you, don't bother with them."
These evil guys won't survive anyway, so why dirty your hands
Even if the world is dominated by evil people, these Taoist nuns who care about the world and take it as their mission to slay demons and monsters would not be able to kill people on their own initiative, and Gu Jiu does not want to erase their purity.
This is good.
Qin Huang looked at these Taoist nuns and curled his lips secretly.
How could he not see that the eldest lady loved these Taoist nuns and took special care of them, otherwise she would not have specially brought them to Zhangzhe Mountain to raid the lair of the old demon Zhang Yang. It was obvious that she wanted to help Qingyun Temple and improve its economic situation.
Fortunately, these Taoist nuns are not players, so he doesn’t have to worry about them competing with him for the eldest lady’s favor, otherwise he would definitely not be able to win over them.
