"Senior...is this miasma a bit thinner?"

While walking, Meng Sipei suddenly looked back at the masked expert and asked.

"Although Su... the formation builder switched the formation eye just now, it is an irreversible fact that one formation eye has already been destroyed, and the power of the large formation will naturally be somewhat reduced."

'Su? Meng Sipei, with extremely sharp ears, moved her ears, feeling that she had heard some big secret.

'Does he know the setters? Is it the sworn enemy? '

Apart from the relationship of sworn enemy, Meng Sipei really couldn't think of any other reason why this senior would do his best to help Shengguo deal with his compatriots.

After walking forward for a while, Jiang Beiran felt as if he had come to a fishing village.

Looking at the fishing nets floating around, Jiang Bei thought that their owners must have died.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo and it's all my fault..."

Just as Jiang Beiran was sighing in his heart, there was a burst of sobbing not far away, so he stopped Meng Sipei, and walked slowly towards the place where the crying came from.

After arriving at a wooden house, Jiang Bei found the weeping man in a flash.

'Damn again ah this is. '

In the corner, a young man with a transparent body was kneeling and weeping bitterly in front of a rotting corpse.

With his previous experience in dealing with ghosts, Jiang Beiran stepped forward to send a message with his mental power: "Why is this little brother crying so sadly?"

The ghost was obviously taken aback, he jumped three feet high, and even his body seemed to be more transparent.

"You... are you human?" In mid-air, the young man looked at Jiang Beiran tremblingly and asked.

"Well, I'm human." Jiang Beiran nodded.

"Isn't everyone dead? How did you get here?"

"Come here."

"Come... come here?" The young man froze for a moment, but his mood seemed to calm down a lot.

Slowly falling back to the ground, the young man looked at Jiang Beiran and asked, "Excuse me... am I dead?"

"Well, it's so dead that it has become a ghost." Jiang Beiran replied affirmatively.

"..."

After a moment of silence, the young man couldn't help covering his face and weeping again, muttering to himself: "My lady, I'm the one who killed you all. It's all my fault, woo woo woo."

"Brother, don't cry in a hurry, you might as well tell me what happened here."

"It's gone... It's all gone." The young man shook his head vigorously.

"Then do you want revenge?"

Hearing the word revenge, the young man suddenly raised his head and said, "I want to! I want revenge!"

"Then tell me what happened here, and I will avenge you."

After hearing this, the young man hesitated for a moment, then replied, "I can tell you, but I have one condition."

"Say it."

"Can you help me bury my wife?"

Jiang Beiran glanced at the rotting body on the ground and asked, "Is it her?"

"Hmm..." The young man nodded vigorously.

"No problem." After Jiang Beiran finished speaking, he looked at Meng Sipei who looked at him with a puzzled face and shouted: "Come here and bury this corpse, dig a deeper hole."

"Ah?" Meng Sipei pointed to herself, with question marks all over her face.

"What are you doing in a daze, work." Jiang Beiran gestured with his eyes.

"This..." Although Meng Sipei didn't know why, she finally agreed and went to dig a hole.

When Meng Sipei was digging the hole, Jiang Beiran looked at the young man and said, "Can we talk now?"

The young man first glanced at Meng Sipei who was digging a hole, and then said with an expression of reminiscence: "A year ago, when we were fishing at sea, I saw a dying man on the sea, so I asked everyone to work together to rescue him. ferry."

Speaking of this, the young man sighed for a long time before continuing: "We brought him back to the village and found a doctor to treat him. After two days, the man woke up and thanked us sincerely. Everyone, and told us that he was a trader, and the boat was overturned by a big wave while delivering goods, and if it weren't for us, he would definitely be eaten by fish."

Not intending to interrupt the young man, Jiang Beiran just listened quietly, and felt more and more that this should be the origin of everything.

"The merchant stayed in the village in order to repay his kindness. He is very good. He is not only good at medicine, but also a carpenter. He helped the village a lot. Later, when the village went to sell fish, it sold 30% more with his help. The price made everyone in the village have a good year. Since then, the village has completely accepted this foreigner, and everyone helped him build a house together, but I didn't expect that was the beginning of the nightmare... "

When the young man mentioned that his hands kept grabbing his hair, the expression on his face was extremely painful.

Instead of urging the young man, Jiang Beiran calmed down the young man's emotions with his mental strength.

After a while, the young man finally recovered a bit, turned his head and saw that Meng Sipei had already dug a hole, and was coming to pick up his wife's body.

"Bury well, the specific reason, I will tell you later." Jiang Beiran looked at Meng Sipei and said.

After listening to Jiang Beiran's explanation, Meng Sipei, who was full of inexplicable stomach, got better. He nodded, wrapped the highly rotten corpse with profound energy and walked towards the dug hole.

Seeing the lady being picked up, the young man followed Meng Sipei slowly to the big pit that had been dug.

"Lady, sleep well, there will be no bugs tormenting you again."

Using profound energy to hold the corpse and slowly put it into the pit, Meng Sipei first glanced at Jiang Beiran, and then buried the soil again after getting a positive answer.

Watching the soil being filled into the pit little by little, the young man knelt down slowly and began to cry without tears.

It wasn't until the youth's figure became more transparent that he finally stopped the convulsions and stood up again.

"Do you need to wait a little longer?" Jiang Beiran came to the young man and asked.

"No, thank you, thank you." After finishing speaking, the young man bowed to Jiang Beiran, and then bowed to Meng Sipei.

After bowing, the young man continued to recall: "Since that trader officially became a member of our village, life in the village has become better day by day. Not only do you not have to go hungry, but you can save winter rations. But when everyone is immersed in When she was having fun, Aunt Liao fell ill suddenly, she was very sick, her body was hot and cold, it was useless to call the doctor from the town."

"In the end, the merchant used his ancestral secret recipe to save Aunt Liao, and the rescued Aunt Liao is in better health than before, and even her legs and feet are gone."

"Since then, everyone's admiration for that merchant has reached its peak. No matter how big or small, they will discuss with him. Gradually... everyone has changed. We no longer go fishing, but gather three times in front of the merchant's hut every day. Kowtow nine times, and shout out the blessings of the Great Immortal, because the vendor told us that in this way we can ensure that we will have enough food and clothing next year, and we will never get sick again."

"In this way until the winter, everyone has already eaten up the stored food. When they are hungry, they can only continue to gather around the vendor's hut to continue praying, and they are far more devout than before, because every time after praying, the vendor will give We ate something in powder form, and he said it was a fairy medicine, and if we ate it, we could live a long and healthy life."

"We didn't have any doubts about this. We ate all the powder, and found that we were really no longer hungry, and even our spirits improved a lot."

"In this way, no one went fishing, and no one farmed. What the whole village had to do every day was to pray and eat powder, until one day, the vendor suddenly took out disgusting bugs and told Ours is a gift from the Great Immortal, and only those who eat bugs are the most devout believers."

"This sentence stimulated everyone. Everyone scrambled to eat the bugs, including me and my wife... But just when we thought that a miracle would come to us, Uncle Qi suddenly vomited There was a large pool of blood, and the whole body twisted strangely."

"Everyone was terrified, but the merchant told us that it was because Uncle Qi was not sincere enough, so he was punished by the Great Immortal. Only those who were not punished could finally be crowned with bliss and enjoy eternal glory and wealth."

"No one doubted the merchant's words, and the villagers who were still alive danced for themselves to have passed the test of the Great Immortal. No one cared about Uncle Qi's body at all."

"But what everyone didn't expect was that Uncle Qi's death was just the beginning. That night, more people died in various strange ways. Some people rushed into the sea while shouting hot, and never came back. Some people poured water into their mouths while shouting thirsty, and finally strangled themselves to death; some people scratched their bodies desperately while screaming itchy, and finally scratched the skin and didn't stop... "

"My wife is also crazy... She shouted cold and poured hot boiling water on herself. I wanted to stop her, but her strength became very strong, and she pushed me away."

"In the end, my wife was scalded to death by boiling water. Before she died, she stared at me, as if asking me why I didn't save her... I hugged her body and cried for a long time, until I saw a red bug Crawled out of her body, I know it, it is a gift from the merchant... "

Hearing this, Jiang Beiran knew that these villagers must have been planted with various kinds of Gu, and became the test subjects of the so-called merchant.

As for the previous series of actions, they should be collecting their power of faith, and this power of faith is usually preparing for some kind of sacrifice.

"What happened next?" Jiang Beiran asked as he looked at the young man who suddenly fell silent.

"I didn't die..." the young man murmured, "I was the only one left alive in the whole village. At this time, the merchant came in. He smiled and congratulated me for passing the test of the Great Immortal and becoming a believer."

"Fucking believers! I grabbed that vendor and asked him why he wanted to kill everyone! Why!!!"

"The merchant's expression changed after hearing this. He grabbed my hair and lifted me up. He called me an ant with an expression I've never seen before! It's your honor to be chosen by the Great Immortal! You should be happy." , laugh! Laugh for me!"

"I didn't smile, he just scratched my face with his fingers and drew a smile on my face."

"It looks much better this way. I'll take you to see Daxian now. After the vendor finished saying this, he took me to the basement of his house. I never knew there was such a place in the village. It was full of disgusting things." Egg, and then I was tied to a shelf by him, behind... I can't remember anything."

"Do you remember where he took you?"

"His house."

"Take me to see."

The young man nodded and walked towards a hut, beckoning to Meng Sipei quietly, signaling her to follow, then Jiang Beiran walked into a wooden house with the young man.

"This is the house that everyone helped him build together. I was brought under the house by him."

"Below?" Jiang Beiran squatted down and knocked on the floor twice, and found nothing unusual, so he raised his head to look at the young man and said, "Do you know where the entrance is?"

The young man shook his head: "I don't know... I came to the ground in a blink of an eye."

'God in a flash? '

Jiang Beiran seemed to understand something and looked around.

'Chaotic star array... really good skill. '

Nodding, Jiang Beiran walked to a vase and looked it over.

"The bottle faces the sky and the star, rushes to the south, the road to the north, and turns clockwise to form the heart..."

Jiang Beiran held the vase and turned it around while talking, then he walked to the desk and looked at an inkstone and said to himself: "The inkstone faces Ruixing in the sky, Ruixing goes north, flowers bloom in the south, and reverse time is like a bird..."

In this way, Jiang Beiran turned all the twelve ornaments in the room. When Meng Sipei was wondering what he was doing again, he suddenly felt that the surrounding scenery changed and he entered a strange space.

'Ugh...'

Even though Meng Sipei was used to seeing strong winds and waves, she was still disgusted by all kinds of pustule-like things in this space.

"Senior, where is this?" Meng Sipei asked in a panic.

But Jiang Beiran didn't have time to answer her question at this time, because he found that this array of arrays was what he had been pursuing.

'Self Enchantment...'

This kind of formation can open up a space that belongs exclusively to those who set up the formation, and everything inside will not be perceived by the outside world. It is the best "safe house" in Jiang Beiran's cognition.

It's a pity that time is running out, and Jiang Beiran has no time to observe with a learning attitude, because he knows that when he comes to this enchantment, the owner of the enchantment has already sensed him.

Before breaking the formation, Jiang Beiran turned his head and looked at Meng Sipei.

Since there is no defense here, it means that the person who set up the formation never thought that he could find this place, or it is not because he is confident, but because he just wants to confuse him through this method.

Because the first formation eye has been broken, according to normal thinking, the people who set up the formation will definitely concentrate all their defensive forces on the second formation eye, making people think that the second formation eye is the place with the strongest defense.

But this silly girl actually found the real second eye by mistake.

'This depends on the stupidity of a fool? impossible. '

If this silly girl only found the first eye, Jiang Beiran could still think that she was lucky, but it is definitely not a matter of luck if she can find another one.

'Could it be that she also has some special constitution? '
