There are always NPCs trying to harm me

Niangzijing ([-])

Ye Chi finally asked the direction of Niangzijing, bid farewell to the stall owner, and went with Liang Yuan to find out the situation first.

In fact, it doesn’t matter if the stall owner really doesn’t want to say it. This Niangzijing is between the streets, and there is a big banyan tree planted beside it. You can see it naturally.

The Niangzi Well is just under the shade of the banyan tree, and it is no different from an ordinary well. Because the water in the well is different, the townspeople surrounded it with wooden stakes, and pressed a stone on the well.

When Ye Chi passed by, he saw a kid squatting there.

This little ghost is not that little ghost. Literally, it is a child ghost who died when he was young, with nothing around his neck and no head.

Seeing it walking around the stones at the mouth of the well, Ye Chi was not afraid of its scary appearance, so he asked it, "What's in this well?"

The little ghost swayed and stopped, wondering if he was surprised that someone could see it. Its two little hands twitched together, and said in a submissive voice: "Did you see my head?"

Ye Chi was surprised that it could make a sound without a mouth, and asked tentatively, "In the well?"

The kid eagerly waved his hand: "Not here."

Liang Yuan watched him talking to the air and asked him, "What did you see?"

Ye Chi said succinctly: "A brat without a head."

"Headless ghost..." Liang Yuan pondered, "Did it ask you where its head is?"

Ye Chi said, "Yes."

Liang Yuan said: "The headless ghost will keep looking for its own head. It asks you like this. If you don't tell it, it will keep pestering you."

Ye Chi immediately turned his head towards the brat, and waved his hand casually: "Your head is there."

Liang Yuan: "..."

The little ghost turned around in the direction Ye Chi pointed. It seemed to be startled, took a step back, and said in a panic, "You can't go over there, there are ghosts over there...you can't go..."

Ye Chi was taken aback, and thought, "Aren't you a ghost?" He also looked at the place he was pointing at, and found that he was not pointing at another place, but Panlong Mountain.

In a blink of an eye, he found that the little ghost had disappeared. Ye Chi searched around, but couldn't find its shadow again. He couldn't help muttering, "Why did he run away?"

Liang Yuan stretched out his hand and tried the wooden stakes around the well: "Go in and have a look." The wooden stakes around the well were all different, and they were all as thick as a child's arm, and they couldn't stop anyone at all. warning effect.

Ye Chi raised his hand, and the five wooden stakes closest to them all flew up and stopped in mid-air. He walked in through the opened opening first, Liang Yuan was not surprised, and naturally followed.The two looked around the well, but they didn't see any tricks.Ye Chi lifted the stone that sealed the mouth of the well again, put his hand on the mouth of the well and grabbed it with bare hands, a stream of water rushed out of the air, dripping and rolling into a water ball, suspended in the palm of his hand.

Liang Yuan smiled: "You are quite familiar with your skills."

Ye Chi coolly replied to him: "Who knows that one day I will be played to death by you..." He stared at the water polo, but didn't see anything strange, it seemed to be ordinary water, and it was clearer, without any impurities. No.Ye Chi smelled it, but there was no unusual smell.

"Yeah." The ghost doll suddenly yelled, and its small arms grabbed Ye Chi's arm, as if it wanted to get closer to the water polo.Ye Chi quickly picked it up with the other hand, and simply held the water polo in front of it. Unexpectedly, when the ghost doll saw the water polo, it opened its mouth and swallowed it.

Ye Chi wasn't too surprised. The ghost doll's stomach is basically a dimensional space, and it can eat anything. He is not afraid of eating it, but the way it eats is still a little cruel.

Seeing this, Liang Yuan's eyes moved slightly, and he said: "Ghost dolls like eating evil the most, there are unclean things in this water."

Ye Chi clapped his hands, and put back the stone that was holding down the mouth of the well: "Panlong Mountain, Niangzijing, I heard that the water in this Niangzijing was given by a dragon in Panlongshan. There are ghosts in Panlong Mountain, it seems that there is a problem at the source." They left Niangzijing and went to the street again, the sun was setting, and the shops on the street began to close one after another, Ye Chi asked Liang Yuan, "What is wrong with this world?" Are there really dragons?"

Liang Yuan said lightly: "Jiaolong is a water beast, not a real dragon."

The two of them talked and arrived at the door of an inn. Seeing that it was late, Ye Chi planned to stay for one night and make plans tomorrow. After all, he didn't know what was on Panlong Mountain. When he went up the mountain at night to explore, he had to meet someone It's inconvenient to run away with things you can't handle.

The inn is not big, and the rooms are mostly vacant. It can be seen that the business is not good. The waiter and the shopkeeper are both passive and sabotage. They are not very enthusiastic when they meet the customers. guest room.

Ye Chi and Liang Yuan lived in two rooms next to each other, and asked the store owner for food to be delivered to Liang Yuan's house.The waiter's eyes lit up when he saw Yinzi, and his tone became a bit lively: "Be objective and eat first, and if you have anything to do, just tell me."

Ye Chi said, "Look at your shop, it's not too small, why doesn't anyone come to live there?"

The shop waiter received the reward and responded to every request: "To be honest, our shop is still the best inn in Niangzijing. The business used to be really good, but recently, there are fewer and fewer foreigners coming here, and..." He wanted He stopped talking, and asked in a low voice, "Which road did the guest come from? Did you pass Panlong Mountain?"

Ye Chi replied: "No, but what's so weird about Panlong Mountain?"

The shop waiter said: "There are indeed strange things. The travelers who came down from Panlong Mountain all said that the mountain was not clean. Not only did they make strange roars, sometimes it rained blood, and some even said that they saw monsters with hair all over their bodies... In short, there are all kinds of strange things. , This news has only recently spread, and gradually everyone is afraid to go there, and would rather take a long detour." The waiter did not forget to ask, "Guest officer, remember to take a detour when you leave, and don't run into anything. Bad stuff, it's scary."

Ye Chi thanked him for his kindness and let him go out.

As soon as the shop waiter left, Ye Chi took some food with his chopsticks, he suddenly smiled, and said to Liang Yuan next to him, "Guess what he hesitated to say just now?"

Liang Yuan shook his head: "Just say what you say, there is nothing to guess."

Ye Chi tapped his chopsticks on the side of the bowl, and said, "No one comes to such a big inn, is it just because Panlong Mountain is so weird? Although Panlong Mountain stretches far, it is not without roads, and there are few travelers. , there will never be none of them... This problem is not outside, then it is inside." He suddenly picked up a chopstick dish for Liang Yuan, and smiled very unscrupulously, "You have a taste of this dish."

Seeing that he was smiling maliciously, Liang Yuan of course didn't move, Ye Chi said dully: "Your reaction is meaningless at all, if senior brother—" He stopped suddenly, his expression changed, and then he continued, "This inn is far away from you. The Niangzi Well is so close, the water must come from the Niangzi Well, probably something happened before, that's why no one is willing to come."

Liang Yuan rolled his eyes at the food he picked up, a little puzzled: "Since you know, why do you still eat?"

Ye Chi said indifferently: "That was all in the past. Now that the wells are closed, the water is naturally not there." He doesn't eat much, and he doesn't eat much. Concisely, he put down the chopsticks without moving.

Ye Chi simply got up with the ghost doll in his arms, walked around the room, and finally stopped by the window pane, stretched out his hand, and pushed the window open.

The window happened to be facing the corner of the street, Ye Chi poked his head out, took a look around under the inadvertently conspicuous moonlight, and found the backyard connected to the inn, he immediately climbed the window sill and jumped lightly, squatting down in a smooth manner.

Liang Yuan didn't understand what he wanted to do, so he walked over and stood next to him. The window was not wide open, and Ye Chi squatted there a bit cramped. Seeing Liang Yuan coming over, he said to him: "This is the backyard of the inn to the right. I live at home, so I'll go check it out, I'm afraid someone drank the well water... Let's see what's going on first." He was about to jump, but stopped halfway, and said suddenly, "I saw a strange thing on Yin Xuanyi's chest before. thing, do you know what that is?"

Liang Yuan raised his head to look at him, Ye Chi's back was facing the moonlight outside the window, half of his face happened to be in the shadow, the expression was not discernible in the darkness, Liang Yuan said indifferently: "The branch of the resting tree."

"what?"

"Anxiety wood is a sacred tree of the ghost clan. It can exude a kind of wood fragrance that calms the nerves and has the effect of calming the soul."

Ye Chi's eyes darkened: "What do you mean?"

"He has the spirit of the Golden Crow in his body." Seeing Ye Chi's strange expression, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and continued, "When the Golden Crow changed, Yin Chu was only a full moon, and Yin Jiubian forcibly took the Golden Crow's inner alchemy and incorporated it into his body. The Red Flame Golden Crow is cruel by nature, and after thousands of years of practice, it has become one with the inner alchemy, which is extremely dangerous. It was the real Yixu who used the power of the Four-Four Conferred God Pillar to force it into his body, and then went to Fengdu Ghost Realm alone , and took back the resting wood to help him fix his soul, and Yin Chu survived."

No matter how surprised Ye Chi was, there was only a momentary ups and downs in his heart. He quickly calmed down, thought about it carefully, and suddenly said: "No wonder he reacted so strongly to the ghost doll back then. It turns out that he felt the same way..." He With a heartbeat, he asked again, "Why did Yin Jiubian put the inner alchemy of the Golden Crow into his body? Would he not know the danger?"
