Chapter 143 Mirror

It's not time for dinner yet, so there are almost no customers in the Bafang Pavilion. There is only one young girl who is sweeping the hall. If I remember correctly, her name is Xiaohuan. There are no service-minded maids in the shop.

Seven of us went in and didn't sit down. We just asked the maid: "Where's your shopkeeper?"

The maid glanced at the few of us, perhaps because Mu Yan, a regular customer, had a different face every time he visited, so she didn't show any enthusiasm or surprise, and said flatly: "The backyard slaughters sheep, sit Wait." After saying that, he turned and went to the backyard.

"Slaughtering sheep?" I looked at Chang Wenxia, ​​and the word "black shop" popped up in my mind, just like the people in the village who often call rich passers-by fat sheep...

Chang Wenxia seemed to have seen through my thoughts, rolled her eyes and still grabbed my hand and led her to the nearest Eight Immortals Table to sit down.The others also took their seats together, and the Eight Immortals table only had a seat next to Yuan Ye vacant, so it was quite full.

"So it's the girl from the Hu family who came back." Not long after, a woman came in from the back of the hall, with a dark red apron tied in front of her body and a red agate hairpin on her head. She had a bright face and a good figure. Sister He, the proprietress of this tavern.From the tone of her voice, she couldn't hear any emotions. She didn't have the warm welcome before, nor the maid-like indifference just now, but she seemed to understand it somewhat.She used "come back". These two words just show that she is not as ignorant of what happened before as the ordinary people here. It seems that she is indeed the breakthrough point for the problems we are facing.

"Sister He, come and sit down, long time no see, do you miss me?" Mu Yan was facing her, before inviting her to take a seat, he habitually teased her first.Lian Buchou glanced at her silently, seemingly indifferent, but I knew she didn't appreciate the good habit of foxes.

Sister He didn't refuse, and sat down in front of the only vacant seat, and continued: "During the absence of Miss Hu's family, my Bafang Pavilion has lost a lot of money... Originally, I can still go to those brothels of yours. Send some snacks to do some extra work..." She looked at Mu Yan with deep meaning in her eyes: "Now that this place has changed hands, it will completely cut off my work, girl Hu, how can I not miss you?" You?" There was something in her words, and everyone present could hear it.

Nine-Tailed Fox immediately showed a bright smile when he heard the words, and said: "Since that's the case, I think Sister He will help me."

She nodded, she reached a consensus with us and united the front, and said: "But how can we help?"

"I know you, so naturally I won't ask you to take risks together. It's just that we have encountered a difficult problem now, and we have to ask you for advice."

"Appreciate further details."

"When we came in, we found that the orientation of the house here was different from before I left. We asked the people, but they were all inside without knowing it. After thinking about it, maybe this is the only place in Baiguo County that will not be haunted by evil spirits. You are the only one who is bewitching your mind. Therefore, I hope you can tell what you know and think, so that we can find some clues and find the way back to my fox den."

Hearing Mu Yan's words, Sister He's complexion instantly became solemn, she called Xiaohuan, told her to close the shop door, went back to the backyard, took out the scroll and pen and ink, put them on the table, and said: "This matter It happened one month after you left, there was not a single fox left in Baiguo County, and many people died. At that time, the place was in chaos, not only the fox brothels, but also many unowned shops and houses were destroyed by other people. Occupation by forces, that is, from a certain night during that period of time, the houses on the street gradually shifted over half a month, and became what they are now. I can feel the spirit of the Fox clan staying in Baiguo County for generations. The spiritual energy of the magic circle is chaotic day after day, and it is probably because of this that you can't go back."

"So, as we guessed before, if we want to go to Huyouju, we still need to find a way to restore the street to its original state and straighten out the aura of the magic circle?" Chang asked Xia.

"In my opinion, that's exactly the case." Sister He didn't speak very full, but judging from the things she brought, such sufficient preparations, I'm afraid it's almost the same.

"Then what do you think about the method of restoring the original appearance of the street?" Mu Yan is most concerned about this point.

Surprisingly, Sister He gave an affirmative answer: "Although I can't be sure, but I don't have a clue." After she finished speaking, she opened the scroll on the table. Yihu's map of Baiguo County, more precisely, an original map of Baiguo County.

In order to see clearly, the eight people around the table stood up, waiting for Sister He's guidance.

"I will draw the changes in the streets of Baiguo County on this map step by step according to the time and according to what I perceive." Sister He stretched out her index finger to draw on the map, and the places she passed , The jet-black houses all glowed with a light red light.She first made a stroke along the middle section and end of Chong'er Street on the west side of the house group, then started from one end of this stroke, crossed several streets in the southeast direction and connected dozens of houses, and then made a stroke of the place. The house at the intersection of the two straight lines is circled with a pen dipped in cinnabar, and marked with a "one".

"The houses on these two lines switched positions when they changed for the first time..." As she finished speaking, the houses on the two lines on the map flashed, and they really switched positions, the light red ones The light also disappeared.

"The second change is that the houses on this road exchanged places with the houses on this road... Then all the way and this road..." She explained to us while gesturing on the map, and circled the land with a cinnabar pen from time to time house at the intersection of two lines, and sort annotations.I don't know how much time has passed, the dots on the map almost dazzled me, before Sister He received the last sum, which was "Si Shi Jiu".

"This is the map of Baiguo County now." She concluded.

"Then what do the houses you circled mean?" I asked, pointing to the circles on the map.

"Mirror." Sister He's answer was very short, just these two words, mirror...Seeing that we all showed confused expressions, she put away the scroll and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to have a look. The nearest family to the museum is next door." After finishing speaking, he took us to the backyard.As she said, the family next to the Bafang Pavilion is one of the 49 houses she circled just now, ranking 27th.

The door came to the backyard, where perhaps the head sheep had just been slaughtered, and the young man was just washing the blood on the ground with well water.Sister He didn't shy away from him, she jumped over the wall and went to the yard of the next door.

We followed suit, but it was just a small courtyard with a few camellia trees planted, and nothing else.Facing the south stood a low house with a closed door and a spinning wheel beside the door. It didn't look like anyone was at home.

"Look..." Sister He raised her hand, pointing to a gossip mirror on the lintel of a low house, in front of which hung a pair of scissors upside down, which are usually equipped with evil spirits.

"This mirror was replaced during that time. Since then, not only has the meager aura that suppressed evil spirits disappeared, but... there is an indescribably weird feeling."

"So you mean that the street changes because of this mirror?" Mu Yan asked.

"Exactly. I have checked several houses, and they also have such weird mirrors in their homes. Although the orientation, orientation, shape, and purpose are all very different, the weird aura on them is the same."

"So, let's break this side to find out. If it is true as you said, the nearby houses will also change."

Mu Yan gathered his energy with his two fingers after finishing his speech, and made a stance to smash the gossip mirror over there, but Bai Ze stretched out his hand to stop it.

"Don't be impulsive. If you act casually like this, I'm afraid it will add to the chaos. Miss He, please borrow the scroll to have a look."

Sister He generously handed the scroll to Bai Ze, and said: "Miss Bai Ze has already made up her mind, so I will give this scroll to you." Having said that, her meaning is self-evident, yes Want to let go of this.I thought this girl was very capable, and we didn't introduce each other just now, so she knew that the woman in front of me who put away her white hair and tried to look like an ordinary person was the mythical beast Bai Ze. I don't feel sorry at all for pushing the work so smoothly.

Here, Mu Yan was very considerate when he saw this, and he cupped his hands and said to Sister He: "I know there are some things that you don't like meddling in, but you have helped me a lot now, and we will handle the next thing. Thanks for that..."

"What are you talking about, I will be taken care of by the Hu family girl in the future..." Sister He said it very easily, and said goodbye: "Okay, I have to go back to the store to prepare the ingredients, and I can wait later You can’t do business anymore.”

This side watched Sister He climb over the wall and go back to the backyard of the Bafang Pavilion. Looking back, we looked at Bai Ze again. After all, Sister He just said that Bai Ze was caressing, and she did not deny it.

"What are we going to do?"

"According to the order marked on the map, smash them one by one. There are 49 mirrors in total here. Let's write down the map and act separately." After speaking, Bai Ze tapped on our foreheads, and immediately felt a strange feeling into my head.

"Within three hours, the seven of us can communicate no matter where we are." Bai Ze explained what he did just now.

"Okay, then we will meet again when we encounter problems."
