In fact, no matter how you say it, Nan Jing felt that the appearance and personality of this "Xie Yi" could really confuse people. Nan Jing stretched out his hand to grab the gemstone gold bracelet. The cold bracelet made his hand shrink back. Nan Jing She pursed her lips and said, "Too much, what I bought is not worth so much money."

Xie Yi chuckled, and said gently, "The rest will be Xiao Nanjing's reward for taking me in."

Nan Jing didn't refute Xie Yi's words this time, he accepted the bracelet in silence, Xie Yi's attitude towards him was very similar to the kind of brother next door, teasing him gently, but he didn't really...do what?

It seems that Nan Jing really doesn't understand anything, and it seems that he is only using this identity to get close to Nan Jing.

There was a moment of silence between the two. Not far away, Chi Xing walked over and waved: "I have reserved a seat. Miao Jinli called me just now, and he will come over right away. We just happened to eat crabs together."

Chi Xing chose a century-old cost-effective restaurant, and ordered crab powder tofu and four large crabs. When Miao Jinli arrived, the four of them unpacked the crabs together. Chi Xing said with a smile: "The last time I came to the restaurant with people It was when we graduated two years ago for dinner, and we dealt with such gods and ghosts, so it was really hard to relax."

"You still have some free time." Miao Jinli ate in a very rough way, half a crab was taken apart and dipped in vinegar and chewed in his mouth: "I didn't see these things at all when I was in the village. Everyone in our village Children start to learn to raise Gu from the moment they are born, and the ones they are most familiar with are not their parents and lovers, but their own Gu worms."

Miao Jinli seemed to be thinking about it, he held a crab leg in his mouth and said vaguely: "If it wasn't because the high priest said that only people outside can solve the problems in the village, I wouldn't come out either, although it's nice to find the outside world after I come out. .”

"It's true that the village can't hold on any longer. The evil gu has spread too fast. The high priest hasn't sent me a message to let me go back." Miao Jinli looked at Nan Jing, "The high priest's order just let me find Nan Jing." Mirror, but I don't know what to do next."

Nan Jing suddenly realized: "No wonder you come to me as soon as the competition is over."

Miao Jinli hummed weakly, and explained: "I didn't expect to force you to go, I just wanted to make friends with you first, to see how you are, if you are a good person, I will ask you for help, our village Li will definitely pay you, and if you don’t want to help, I won’t force you.”

"The people in our village have dealt with poisonous Gu a lot, life and death are a matter of life."

Nan Jing raised his eyes to look at Miao Jinli, Miao Jinli's chocolate-colored complexion and dejected expression, with a rough and pitiful taste, it was very strange to see Miao Jinli like this, usually Miao Jinli is not feeling the snake Gu and staying alone , just playing games, laughing and teasing Nanjing.

Not enough to have no objection to Miao Jinli coming to Nanjing for something else, Nanjing took out the crab roe a little clumsily, dipped in vinegar and bit into his mouth, squinted his eyes so freshly that he thought for a while and said: "It's okay, we are Friends, you will definitely find a way to help me when I encounter problems, and I will help you."

Speaking of which, Nan Jing asked worriedly: "Can you tell me what evil Gu is? Does the Gu in your body... have a big impact on you?"

Miao Jinli frowned: "I don't know either... Let me tell you about the characteristics."

"At first, there was a 15-year-old young man in the village who discovered a new type of Gu. The Gu insect was very strange in appearance, the size of a fingernail, translucent, like white jade, only with a little red on the head, very beautiful. It is also very domineering and will eat other Gu insects."

"We will observe and raise this kind of Gu insect for a period of time. Gu insects that can eat other Gu insects are generally very strong. What effect needs to be investigated by the high priest, but we can't wait for the results of our investigation... something happened."

Miao Jinli's voice gradually became serious: "Young people in the village will live alone when they reach the age of 16. They live in small buildings on stilts. They usually only show up when gathering and communicating with Gu insects, or when they get married. In short, everyone will not interfere with the other party's process of raising Gu."

"So when the young man who raised this new type of Gu worm had an accident, we didn't find out immediately. It was a gathering every half a month. His sweetheart didn't see him appear, so he went to find him, and found him dead. "

"The state of death...was very miserable. The body was almost dissolved, leaving only a little thing hanging on the bones. When the high priest and I arrived, even the little thing left was dissolved. I just felt that Gu is a bit evil, just find this new type of Gu insect and eliminate it."

"But I didn't expect," Miao Jinli's voice was so heavy that it made one's hair stand on end: "We didn't find this new type of Gu insect, and found a large number of traces of this new type of Gu insect's activity. This Gu insect has multiplied, and there are still a lot of them. Soon, someone in the village will be parasitized by this Gu insect."

"This is not a new type of Gu at all, but a child Gu deliberately placed in the village. The high priest searched all over the classics and found out that this Gu is a human-eating Gu. To solve this Gu, the mother Gu must be removed. to kill."

"But we couldn't find the mother Gu at all. Fortunately, although everyone in the village was parasitized by this Gu insect, no one died because of this Gu insect. The high priest sent me out to find a solution. "

After Miao Jinli finished speaking, the table fell into silence for a short time. This situation was so weird that it made people feel uncomfortable. This Gu worm is simply a thing that can explode at any time. A little spark may kill everyone in the village, but what do they even think? It is impossible to say that it will cause sparks.

"It's indeed a human-eating Gu," Xie Yi broke the silence on the table. He slowly put the perfectly disassembled crab meat on the porcelain plate of the restaurant, and then naturally placed the white porcelain plate in front of Nan Jing.

Ignoring Nan Jing's pause, Xie Yi took a tissue to wipe his hands, and said in a gentle voice, "At first, this sub-gu appeared in a deceptive state, making everyone think that the innocent sub-gu was harmless. It is a high-level Gu worm, but in the later stage, this Gu will eat up all the Gu staying with him, and then get into the human body."

"The reason why the people in your village are safe is not because the child Gu of the human-eating Gu let you go, but because the mother Gu doesn't need it yet. When the mother Gu needs it, the child Gu will devour the parasitic organs bit by bit, dissolve Digest and provide nutrition to the mother Gu."

Xie Yi explained in a very gentle voice: "Then Zigu will turn the body into a breeding ground for it to breed, until the whole body is full of this fingernail-sized human-eating Gu, without any human flesh and blood. will leave."

Although there is no evidence, Nan Jing thinks that what Xie Yi said may be correct, such a poisonous Gu... Nan Jing thought of the tiny Gu insects surging under the skin of a person, filling the whole body, Nan Jing couldn't eat a single bite up.

The restaurant is full of people. This century-old restaurant has a very high price-performance ratio for eating crabs. It costs 39 yuan a crab, and the other dishes are also delicious. In this season, people usually invite friends to bring their children and relatives to eat crabs. In the midst of the steaming umami, no one would have thought that such a weird and bizarre matter involving so many human lives would be discussed at a table in the corner.

Miao Jinli paused, and he glanced at Xie Yi, Xie Yi said a lot of details that he didn't say, Xie Yi probably had a deeper understanding of this Gu than the high priest, he glanced at Xie Yi a little depressed , Miao Jinli was silent for a moment and said: "I don't want to explore how you know so clearly,"

"But since you are Nan Jing... someone I know, I believe you," Miao Jinli gritted his teeth and looked at Xie Yi: "You know this evil Gu so well, do you have a solution other than finding the mother Gu?"

The three looked at Xie Yi together.

"Actually, you are clear," Xie Yi said with a calm expression, "the only way is to find the Mother Gu, but now there are already clues to the Mother Gu."

"Ah," Nan Jing suddenly remembered that Xie Yi knocked off Miao Jinli's hand that touched the Nirvana Stone, and said, "You said that this Nirvana Stone can intensify evil gu, and the high priest in Miao Jinli's village instructed him to come to me, so in fact I am not the key, the Nirvana Stone is, as long as we follow the Nirvana Stone to find the sparrow, we can find the Mother Gu and solve this problem, right?"

Xie Yi: ...

He coughed lightly and said with a smile, "It's Suzaku, not sparrow."

"But what you said is right, Xiao Nanjing."

Nan Jing said indifferently, he picked up Xie Yi's bowl, and dug for Xie Yi a large spoonful of crab powder tofu with crab leg meat. Seeing Xie Yi's slightly paused eyes, Nan Jing said calmly with no expression on his face: " Since you unpack the crabs for me, I will make crab powder for you, to honor you, thank you ancestor."

Every day Xiao Nan Jing Xiao Nan Jing, Nan Jing thought to himself, this man has lived for who knows how many years, and he is still teasing him here, so he is not too ashamed to panic.

Xie Yi paused with an expression that was always at ease, looked down at the small bowl of steaming crab-flavoured tofu, his peach blossom eyes flickered with laughter, scooped up a spoonful of crab-flavoured tofu, stopped when he was about to put it in his mouth, tilted his head and said seriously: "Xiao Nanjing, I think it's not good to be called ancestor even though I'm older than you as we are married."

"It's better to call me brother."

Nan Jing was stunned: ...?

What is your name brother? !Why is this man so thick-skinned?

ten days later.

The four of them roughly agreed to set off for southern Yunnan the next day. Although the time is not tight, it is definitely better to go early. The night before departure, Chi Xing went back to Chi’s house. The first reason was that he needed to get some cooking The paper figurine's utensils, and the second is that although some members of the Chi family are useless, there are still good ones. Chi Xing wants to meet his family.

Miao Jinli actually didn't want Chi Xing to go with him, but Chi Xing directly said that if Miao Jinli dared to speak out, the two of them would never be friends in this life.

The three people left for dinner didn't want to cook, so they ordered a lot of fast food like fried chicken. After eating, Miao Jinli was in a daze holding his own snake gu, and Xie Yi went to the roof, where many flowers were planted , Nan Jing seldom went there, played a few games with Miao Jinli, Nan Jing was a little tired, when he went out with his mobile phone, he remembered something and went to the top of the building.

Xie Yi was sitting in the wicker chair. He was wearing the clothes he bought that day, a simple smoky gray shirt and black slim-fit trousers, and a long black sweater jacket, because his figure was too tall, even if he was relatively thick The sweater jacket doesn't show any bloated feeling, and the aggressiveness of closing eyes to tease people at any time has disappeared.

As if feeling that Nan Jing was coming, Xie Yi slowly opened his eyes, and those eyes that were always radiant looked over, and there was a little water under the dim light on the top of the building: "Well, little Nan Jing, Come up to see your brother?"

Since the last time Nan Jing made a joke, Xie Yi began to call himself an elder brother. Although Nan Jing never paid attention to him, Nan Jing always believed that Xie Yi was not as harmless as he showed. What Xie Yi understood was really There are too many things hidden under his gentle eyes, too deep for Nan Jing to see.

Nan Jing didn't speak. The two of them looked at each other through clusters of potted flowers. Nan Jing's eyes were firm. In fact, Nan Jing's height was less than 1.8 meters. He was wearing a light gray long-sleeved sweater and jeans. It looks like a teenager, and the outline of the face is still very green.

Calculated according to the time of human beings, Xie Yi thought, Nan Jing seems to be just at the age of adulthood, met friends, had something to do firmly, and also understood emotions, well, it is a good age.

Xie Yi propped his forehead, looked at Nan Jing and said suddenly: "Xiao Nan Jing, there are no other flowers in Baoguhai, only sweet-scented osmanthus. Every season, you can see golden sweet-scented osmanthus everywhere. The flowers here are still more beautiful and more numerous, so it seems that there is nothing good about being a fairy, right?"

"I've never been a fairy, so I don't know which one is better," Nan Jing replied blankly, took a breath, walked a few steps closer in the evening breeze, and finally asked the question he wanted to ask at the very beginning: " Xie Yi, why did the old man ask you to tie the bell?"

Nan Jing has already met the owners of the four bells. These four people have never even mentioned the old man to Nan Jing, and it is impossible for the old man to have contact with them, except Xie Yi...

Tonight's night breeze is very light, with the smoke from downstairs, and the smell of frying and wonton. Xie Yi stood up and turned around, with a light and damp voice, loose like the wind: "Xiao Nanjing, I don't know what the other four people think, but I came here at the request of the person who raised you."

The heartbeat was very slow, maybe the wind was really too gentle, Nan Jing pursed his lips, he really wanted to believe this statement.

When Nan Jing got on the plane early the next morning, Nan Jing thought that Xie Yi was a very deceitful person, but last night Xie Yi didn't look at him to answer his question, was it because he didn't dare to face him?

Nan Jing snorted softly, wrapped the blanket tightly and fell asleep on the plane, because Nan Jing knew very well that he might not have time to sleep, so he got off the plane, and according to the navigation with the most light spots, they changed the car three times, from the plane Transferred to the high-speed rail, then transferred to a van, and finally rented a motorcycle, arrived at a town, and then walked in to the mountains and deep mountains and old forests. They had not yet reached the place indicated by the light spots.

The locals talk in dialects. Fortunately, there is Miao Jinli, who pointed out a local map and talked with people, and finally came back with a serious expression: "No one has been to that place. I asked, but there are still people here." There is a legend that there is a place of human bones.”

Nan Jing and Chi Xing looked at each other and frowned. Nan Jing gathered the cold-proof mountaineering suit he was wearing: "What is a human bone land?"

The legend of this kind of place, sometimes something happened, passed down from generation to generation, there must be something happened to have this statement, and from this statement they can at least find some clues.

Miao Jinli said: "More than ten years ago, some people hunted and went to a deep place. When several veterans caught snakes and sold them, they went too deep, and then found a large number of human bones near that place. They were frightened. He ran right away."

"After these hunters came back, they all said the same thing. The people in the village didn't believe it at first, thinking that these people made an excuse for not catching the snake. Unexpectedly, after three days, these people successively They're all dead."

Chi Xing: "Dead?"

Miao Jinli nodded: "Yes, there is only one person left alive, but this person is also crazy, and soon his wife and children can't live without it, so he remarried. This person is still alive, living in the innermost part of the village, crazy , relying on the assistance of the people in the village and the subsistence allowances given by the village committee."

It was getting late, Nan Jing hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Let's go see this person first to understand the situation, stay overnight in the village tonight, and rent a motorcycle to go there tomorrow, what do you think?"

Chi Xing: "I have no objection."

Miao Jinli nodded: "I think so too."

Finally Nan Jing looked at Xie Yi, Xie Yi smiled and said softly, "I have no objection either."

Nan Jing paused, and looked at Xie Yi deliberately, wondering if it was his illusion, he always felt that the closer Xie Yi got to that place, the heavier the wet feeling on his body, the covered and suppressed loneliness moist feeling.

Miao Jinli was in charge of negotiating with the village head. They gave money very readily, and Miao Jinli could speak dialect. The village head agreed without any resistance. He even asked someone to take them to see this person. The person who led the way walked to the house. I don't want to go any further.

This is a dilapidated yard, with a few sticks of bacon hanging outside, and a pile of messy things piled up in the iron basin in the yard. It smells dirty and sour. As soon as Nan Jing walked in, a shadow moved in the corner. After moving, a middle-aged man dressed in rags turned his head. Before Nan Jing could say anything, the man started to shout like he was frightened.

Shouting in dialect, Nan Jing couldn't hear a word, but he stopped immediately.

Speaking of this, the crazy man suddenly picked up the iron bowl at hand and threw it towards Nanjing. Xie Yi pulled Nanjing, and the iron bowl was touched by his finger, and it stopped and fell an inch away from Nanjing.

The four looked at each other, and quickly went out from the yard. Miao Jinli waited for the person who led them to leave, and then whispered with an ugly expression: "That person said to go, he told us to go."

But Miao Jinli came here for the people in the village, so he definitely can’t leave now. Nan Jing must find that young man, and Xie Yi obviously came for the Nirvana Stone. Except for Chi Xing, all three of them have nothing to do No reason.

Nan Jing and Miao Jinli looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.

Early the next morning, when Chi Xing woke up, he knew that the other three had left.

When Chi Xing was annoyed, Nan Jing and the three of them had already turned around and walked to the place pointed by the light spot. The mobile phone had lost signal for a long time, and all kinds of trees grew together. There are rotten leaves and wet soil on the ground. They have one foot deep and one foot shallow. They can only walk towards the light spot according to the instructions of the star map.

I don’t know how long we’ve been walking. Nan Jing suddenly smelled a very fragrant and greasy smell. It’s a strong smell of powder. Because it’s too strong, the fragrance is a bit smelly. Nan Jing walked a few steps forward , Xie Yi suddenly pulled his arm, and directly pulled Nan Jing back into his arms.

Nan Jing paused, and then saw Xie Yi point his hand. Under Xie Yi's gesture, Miao Jinli fell to the ground in a faint, and the whole person fell on the rotten soil.

Xie Yi dodged to the side, clasped Nan Jing tightly, and his soft voice rarely became serious: "Someone is coming, hold your breath."
