Being the young master of the dead demon world has a tendency to be masochistic

With the help of everyone, Xiao Yunyi called all the villagers and asked them to prepare dry food and water for the next few days and stay in their respective houses for a few days.Xiao Yunyi didn't explain much about this, only saying that it was to solve the problem of ghosts in the village.Although the villagers were puzzled, they just nodded.

As usual, the water seller prepared the water source and sold it at the gate of the temple.It's just that the price of water is much cheaper than usual.

Seeing Xiao Yunyi appearing at the gate of the temple early in the morning, the businessman thought that Xiao Yunyi was going to make trouble again, so he was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy.

To the businessman's surprise, Xiao Yunyi coldly left the words "Take a rest for a few days, and come back to sell water in three days" and left there.

Even though he felt strange, he just nodded his head desperately, not daring to ask more questions, fearing that Xiao Yunyi's sharp sword edge would appear in front of him again.

On this day, the merchant's business was very good.The number of villagers who came to buy water was three times higher than usual, presumably to prepare for the next few days.

The next day, the villagers all obeyed Xiao Yunyi's instructions and hid in the house without leaving the house.The street was as deserted as a dead city, only a few immortal disciples and casual cultivators patrolling the alleys.

On the first day, everything was normal.

On the second day, everything was fine.

The third day was no different from the previous few days.

The food and water prepared by the villagers were about to run out, but they didn't notice any sign of trouble.For this, Xiao Yunyi was very worried, the plan has been carried out to the third day but there is no trace of it.

When Xiao Yunyi was troubled, Jicheng brought news that all the disciples of the immortal sect and casual cultivators were guarding carefully these few days, and they were always vigilant, but no suspicious person appeared.

This made Xiao Yunyi doubt his own speculation.

Are they looking in the wrong direction?Now that the dry food is about to run out, the villagers should be allowed to work.It is not an option to keep them locked in the house, even if they are not killed by that force, they will starve to death in the house.

"Young master, young master." A familiar voice came from behind Xiao Yunyi.

Xiao Yunyi turned around and saw that there was no one behind him.

Just when he began to doubt whether he had an auditory hallucination, a hand popped out of the ground, clutching the corner of his clothes tightly.In vain, another head popped up, with a silly smile on its dusty face, and said to him: "Young master, young master, here it is!"

Seeing that it was Mu Yan who came, Xiao Yunyi was a little surprised.Seeing his embarrassing appearance, Xiao Yunyi narrowed his eyes and said hesitantly: "Mu Yan, you..."

Except for his head and one hand, Mu Yan's body was almost buried in the soil.He shook his head, trying to shake the mud from his hair.The mud thrown away by him splashed onto the corner of Xiao Yunyi's clothes, Xiao Yunyi frowned tightly, watching the pieces of mud stain his originally clean coat with earthy gray.

Mu Yan didn't notice it, just smirked and said: "Young master, I didn't use the teleportation formula to send myself here. I don't know if I made a mistake in the formula or what, I was teleported into the soil without knowing it. Anyway , Just pass it to the right place!"

Xiao Yunyi really couldn't figure it out, Mu Yan's way of appearing on the stage was almost never normal, either downcast or embarrassed.He had clearly taught him this formula hundreds of times, but he still couldn't remember it clearly.

"Dear young master, would you like to help me?" Mu Yan's face was covered with dirt and dust, he blinked flatteringly, and stretched out his hand to Xiao Yunyi.

"Get up by yourself." Xiao Yunyi turned his face away and said coldly.

"Young master, you can't treat others like this." Mu Yan snotted and burst into tears, expressing the grievance in his heart.It would be fine if the person here today is a little girl, but if it is a big man, Xiao Yunyi doesn't have the patience to dig him out of the soil slowly.

"Do you want me to help? That's good." Xiao Yunyi suddenly grabbed his hand and roughly pulled Mu Yan's body out of the soil. Then there was a loud "click" sound, and Mu Yan's hand was dislocated. , this is all due to the fact that Xiao Yunyi's strength is too great.

Mu Yan did not slow down in shock.When he really reacted, there was an earth-shattering cry.He looked at his unconscious hand with aggrieved eyes, tears streaming down his face.

"Why are you crying? You are already a ghost, and you won't die a second time. Go back and ask the doctor to pick you up for you." Xiao Yunyi said.

Hearing this, Mu Yan suddenly became enlightened. He scratched the back of his head and said with a silly smile, "That's right! I almost forgot that I was dead. Ah, it's okay, it will be broken when it breaks, and it won't hurt!"

Xiao Yunyi thought to himself, why cry if it doesn't hurt?It really pollutes other people's ears.

After Mu Yan came out of the soil, he straightened his clothes and said, "By the way, is the young master still used to the life of experience?"

"Everything is fine. Why did you come here today? What happened in the Demon Realm?" If nothing happened, Mu Yan would never dare to disturb his tranquility. He must have something important to come here today.

Mu Yan's face wrinkled into the word "囧", he sighed: "The white phoenix that the leader gave you before is extremely difficult to tame, I am really dying, I can't control him, it is too stubborn, You have already opened your spiritual wisdom, but you don't listen to me, and you still think I'm an idiot."

The spiritual power of this thousand-year-old spirit beast is much higher than that of many immortal cultivators.Ordinary millennium spirit beasts would only pay attention to enemies that threatened it. If it was an enemy that could be easily crushed to death by it, it really didn't need to take a second look, let alone listen to the person's words.That white phoenix really regarded Mu Yan as trash.

Hearing this, Xiao Yunyi couldn't help laughing out loud.

Mu Yan stomped his feet angrily, and said, "Young master! How can you laugh at me like this?"

"Give that white phoenix to Bai Yu and ask him to help me tame it. I'll go to him after I've finished training and bring the white phoenix back."

Mu Yan nodded in agreement: "This idea is not bad. I agree very much! If you have nothing to explain, then I will go back first. I don't want to keep that white phoenix by my side for a moment."

"and many more."

Mu Yan turned around, faced Xiao Yunyi, and said doubtfully, "Please tell me, young master."

"Suppose there is a person who stays in his house for three full days, with enough food and water, and guards outside the door, but he dies. Tell me, how did he die?" Xiao Yunyi made a hypothesis, although Now the villagers are still safe and sound, but his psychology is very unsteady, and he always feels that something will happen.

Although Mu Yan is usually silly, it's okay to ask, maybe he will give an unexpected answer.

Mu Yan held his breath and thought about it intently.After thinking for a while, Mu Yan asked, "Are the villagers suffering from hidden diseases or family disputes?"

"nothing."

"If that's the case, then the thing that killed people must be in the house. It's something that the villagers have been in contact with before." Mu Yan spoke clearly, and kept gesticulating in the air.

Xiao Yunyi thought to himself, the villagers can't do anything except do some housework in the house. After staying in the house for three days, the only things they have come into contact with are water and food!

Mu Yan's words awakened the dreamer.

From the beginning, the most suspicious thing was water.What every household owns but cannot lose is drinking water.On weekdays, drinking this water may not cause any serious problems. If it is a certain period of time, it is not impossible to add some poison to the originally clean water.Moreover, the amount of poison can also be freely controlled according to the amount of water.

The water merchants put eight liters of water into the villagers' buckets at a time.And eight liters of water is enough for a villager to drink for three days. On the fourth day, once the water is exhausted, the toxins in the villagers' bodies will accumulate to a certain level, and they will explode in the human body, leading to poisoning and death.

"I didn't expect that you are quite useful. It's all right, you can go back." Xiao Yunyi said.

It was rare for Mu Yan to be praised by Xiao Yunyi, and he said complacently: "Of course, I am your young master Mu Yan! Young master, I will go first."

After finishing speaking, he actually drilled a hole into the soil, Xiao Yunyi saw this unbelievable behavior, and asked suspiciously: "What are you doing?"

"Go back!" Mu Yan smiled happily, as if it should be taken for granted.

When Xiao Yunyi heard this, his heart was about to explode. Just now he praised him for being useful, but in the next second, he committed another stupid mistake.

"Who told you that you must go back to the soil to use the teleportation formula?"

"Ah! What you said is true. No one has ever said why I went back to the soil. Young master, I'm leaving!" Mu Yan recited the teleportation formula with a face of embarrassment, and then, his figure disappeared into the village inside.

What Xiao Yunyi has to do now is to find the water seller and ask him to hand over the antidote.So he went directly to the main river, where his perception told him that the merchant must appear.

Sure enough, just as Xiao Yunyi went to the main river, he met a businessman who was fetching water.Various large and small buckets were placed around the businessman.At this time, he was bowing his waist and putting the bucket in the river to fetch water.

The businessman who was busy fetching water heard footsteps coming from behind him, and his action of fetching water stopped in vain, and said dully: "How do you know I'm here?" The businessman seemed to know that Xiao Yunyi would come to him again, and his face showed Show no surprise.

"I'll let you start business in three days. This is the last day. You must be here to prepare the water to be sold tomorrow morning."

"My lord is right." The businessman's face was gloomy, and his pupils were icy cold.

Xiao Yunyi felt that the businessman in front of him was a bit unusual, his aura was different from the previous few days.Xiao Yunyi had an illusion that the person who fetches water here today is not the same businessman who sold water in front of the temple that day.

"The villagers died for no reason. This matter is related to you. What did you put in the water?"

There was an extremely weird and sinister smile on the merchant's face, and Xiao Yunyi couldn't help but shudder.The businessman pulled away the corners of his stiff mouth, and said calmly: "It's just that arsenic stone powder was put in the water."
