I'm a Serious Fox [Transmigration Book]

Chapter 71 You Think Too Much

When the number of merchants opened on the street gradually increased, the two set off for Wangjiazhai.

In order to avoid attracting unnecessary attention, Hu Yibai suggested that the two of them change their outfits into ordinary people's clothes, otherwise wearing monk clothes would be too conspicuous in the human world.

But after casting a spell to turn the clothes into coarse linen, the feeling is not much better. It is said that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, but in fact it is more correct to say the opposite.With Feng Ling's appearance and figure, it is estimated that even if she wears a sack, she will attract many Song Yudong walls.

Feng Ling changed twice, seeing that the latter was still shaking his head, he frowned: "Otherwise, cover your face." After saying that, he still didn't forget to sarcastically say to Hu Yibai: "Aren't you very good at it?"

Hu Yibai smiled embarrassingly: "That's how it is, anyway, Fengyue Jun, who is so gorgeous, doesn't look like a mortal no matter how worn he is."

After that, he turned around and went to the counter to deliver the room card and key.

Feng Ling glanced at his troublesome face, and changed into a dusty gray gown, which made him look like a young master from a wealthy family who ran out in servant's clothes, thinking that you are not much better .

When the two walked to Wangjiazhai, they found that many businesses along the way were closed.

It stands to reason that it is almost noon now, and no matter how late you go to bed, you should wake up at this time, and there are more than one family, all three passing by in a row.

There is still a layer of fallen leaves accumulated at some doorways, and it looks like it has not been out for a long time.

Hu Yibai found a waiter in a restaurant to greet customers outside and asked: "My little brother, why are so many shops on this street closed? I haven't heard of any drought or flood disaster recently. Is the business so sluggish?" "

As soon as these words came out, the young man looked at the two of them and immediately became alert.

He shook his head quickly: "I don't know, I don't know."

With a look of avoidance on his face, he waved his hands to send the two of them away.

Hu Yibai and Feng Ling looked at each other, sure enough there was something tricky about it.

Hu Yibai took the boy to a corner where there were few people, and took out a few pieces of silver and handed it to him: "Our two brothers came here from other counties to do business. We are new here, and we don't know how the market is going here. I deliberately came to the street to have a look. I never thought that so many shops were closed. Brother, please tell us, this long journey is not easy, and I don’t want to return without success.”

Seeing the money that Hu Yibai handed over, the boy's pupils flickered, obviously a little shaken, he glanced at Hu Yibai and Feng Ling next to him, and confirmed: "Are you really here for business?"

Hu Yibai smiled: "Otherwise, what are we doing here early in the morning, we are worried that there will be bandits on the road, so we have changed our clothes."

Over the past few years, Hu Yibai has also taken over a lot of Qingqiu's business, and has dealt with merchants in the Six Realms.

At this moment, when talking about the facade of the business field, it is also clear and logical.

The young man was confused, but he believed his identity as a businessman.

He pushed and shoved twice, accepted Hu Yibai's money and said in a low voice: "Just now I thought you were sent by the superiors to make an unannounced visit. If you want to do business, you should choose another place quickly. There is almost no one in Wangjiazhai. , have you seen the street in the alley, these black houses are full of lunatics, and the doors are nailed up with iron plates!"

After finishing speaking, he tugged on Hu Yibai's sleeves and said: "Don't say I said it."

Hu Yibai was stunned for a moment, pretending to be shocked and said: "The county magistrate doesn't care about this?"

The little guy snorted: "The magistrate of the county will be promoted and transferred in a month. Now it is the review period. If something happens, will he be able to pay? He must be desperately pressed down. As long as this month is hidden, the rest The mess is the next person's business, who cares."

Hu Yibai let out a sudden oh, that's what feelings are about.

Deceive the superior and conceal the truth, and do not report what you know.

After the little guy left, Hu Yibai and Feng Ling walked further along the long street, and saw that every few steps along the street closed a shop, this trend was even more serious than the Majiapu next door.

Hu Yibai: "It seems that your guess is right. The source of the madness should be in Wangjiazhai. Go back and ask Miss Liu if she has been to Wangjiazhai before she became ill. Maybe you can further narrow down the scope."

Feng Ling hummed lightly, but still didn't look at him.

Although Hu Yibai is the true direct disciple in name, he always feels that Feng Ling is Yun Kuo's real disciple, especially when the master and disciple stand together.

Facial paralysis with small facial paralysis.The same immortal demeanor, indifferent and alienated.

This temperament is well-handled.

Soon the two of them walked to the black house that the boy said. From the outside, it looked like an ordinary private house, but if you released your spiritual sense, you could hear screams, cries, cursing, hitting the wall, nails Scratching sounds, as if from Shura hell, can be heard endlessly.

Feng Ling stepped forward, trying to cast a spell to unlock the door, but she stretched out her hand and stopped in mid-air.

"There's no more medicine."

Hu Yibai sighed: "There has been a flying letter from the Zongmen. Senior Brother Qing said that he will be rushed out in seven days at the earliest. This is still more than 70 people as mentioned before. Adding these now, it is estimated that it will take at least half a month."

After all, alchemy is not like cooking glutinous rice balls, just take it out of the pot and pick it up.

Before, he and Yun Kuo had the honor to visit the alchemy room of the Medical Training Institute. There were three cauldrons in it, one Shaoyang cauldron, one Yin cauldron, and one Yinyang cauldron.

There are seven warehouses for storing fire, such as Samadhi real fire, magic dragon fire, earth fire, sky fire, Zhurong fire, Phoenix fire, Qinglong flame, unicorn flame, Hades flame, Buddha flame, ghost flame, all in all. You can be dazzled by all kinds of tinder in it.

Moreover, their pills are not like those shown on TV. One medicine can cure all diseases, just like human medicines. All kinds of pills are targeted for treatment.

It is three-point poison of medicine, as long as it is a medical practitioner, it will have to be poisoned several times, otherwise it will not be possible to learn alchemy.

This time, the demonic energy from the patient is introduced into the soul-locking bag and sent back to Fetion. The Medical Training Institute has to study and analyze the type and composition of the demonic energy. Only after it is confirmed can we start to choose medicinal materials, fire seeds, and start alchemy. .

The seven days mentioned by Qingfan are already under ideal conditions.

It is urgent to stop the source of the spread of madness.

Hu Yibai looked at the dark house in front of him, and suddenly said: "Since they lock up all the patients, it proves that simple physical isolation can indeed prevent the spread of madness. This kind of demonic energy is impossible. .”

As we all know, magic energy is not contagious, but it can pass through walls and water, and penetrate into every hole.

It is impossible to resist it with only the cognition and ability of ordinary people.

Feng Ling: "Well, madness is both like an obsession and an epidemic, or more like a combination of the two. This must be related to its source. Now suppose the source is composed of two parts, one half of which is definitely a demon, and the other One is more like..."

Hu Yibai tilted his head, and the two looked at each other, almost in unison: "Plague ghost."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of both of them became serious.

Epidemic ghost.

In the words that the common people often say, it can also be called the "God of Plague".

But carrying the word "God" seems to be insulting to the godhead, so they named it the plague ghost in the cultivation world to distinguish it from ordinary ghosts.

Often, the appearance of a plague ghost in a place means that there will be an unprecedented epidemic outbreak in the near future.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, if this is given by the way of heaven, they can't intervene at will.

But now it's not just an epidemic, but also a devilish aura. There must be something wrong with the origin of this plague ghost.

At this moment, Hu Yibai looked behind Feng Ling, and found that the window on the second floor opposite had opened at some time, and a pomegranate red sleeve slipped out along the window sill.

The morning sun is slightly slanting, and the human face is peach blossom.

Seeing him staring in a daze, Feng Ling also turned her head to look. When she saw the little lady sitting on the window sill, her face was so cold that it could frost, and her voice also had a sense of gloom: "It's so beautiful, go in and have a look." Bar."

"Ah?" Hu Yibai came back to his senses, and saw that Feng Ling was silent, turned around and was about to leave alone, he hurried to catch up: "No, I didn't want to look at her, but I just looked up suddenly and felt that the woman was a little strange , It seemed that the window was locked just now, but it suddenly opened again, I was really just surprised..."

He almost blurted out, what woman can look as good as you.

If you don't stare at me, I want to look at you more.

Feng Ling interrupted him impatiently: "Whether you want to see her is none of my business, you don't need to explain to me."

Hu Yibai cried silently in his heart, the way you glared at me just now didn't look like "I don't need to explain" at all.

The two of them unknowingly went around to the main entrance of the little lady's residence just now, and the red plaque above it was impressively engraved with the words "Spring Breeze Building".

Probably caused by insanity, even the business of the brothel is not good, and there are three or five girls standing at the door soliciting customers.

Feng Ling glanced at Hu Yibai, "What are you looking at, go in."

Seeing that the latter was unmoved, he said lightly, "Don't you think there is something wrong with that woman?"

Hu Yibai was stunned for a moment, seeing Feng Ling's normal expression, he was relieved and at the same time couldn't help feeling a little bit disappointed.

He was relieved because Feng Ling had listened to his words, but he was disappointed because he was not jealous at all, and encouraged him to go in and meet other girls.

Hu Yibai nodded, just as he was about to go, he caught a glimpse of Feng Ling walking this way from the corner of his eye.

He hurriedly gave him a hand: "I'll just go."

This place is not suitable for children to enter.

Feng Ling pulled away his fox paw, "This is a mission, don't think too much about it."

Hu Yibai looked at his cold back: "..." Who is thinking too much?

These days, more and more people suddenly went crazy and were imprisoned in black houses. Many shops and restaurants were closed and relocated, and the business of brothels became more and more bleak.

They were blasted out by the bustard to solicit business, but the result was very ineffective. There are no customers in broad daylight.

As a result, two outstanding young brothers came in an instant.

"Hey, where are the two handsome young gentlemen? I have never seen such a beautiful person in this Wangjiazhai."

Hu Yibai hurriedly blocked the hands that were reaching out to touch Feng Ling, "There are too many people outside, can you go in and talk."

"Look at what you said, the guests are not going to be thrown out, please come inside the two young gentlemen!"

After a while, the two of them were taken to the private room inside. There were probably no guests at this time, and almost all the girls were here.

Put the two of them in a circle like flower cores for you to choose.

But Hu Yibai held the cup and looked around, he didn't have the garnet red just now.

He put the wine glass on the table and asked suspiciously, "Is it all here?"

One of the leading girls covered her face and laughed: "Look at what Xiao Langjun said, don't we have enough, how powerful is your golden pestle?"

As soon as these words came out, all the girls around immediately roared with laughter.

Feng Ling frowned slightly, and unconsciously tightened her hands on her knees.

Seeing his uncomfortable look, Hu Yibai thought that the place of fireworks must be full of dirty words, so he said that he would not be allowed in.

He interrupted loudly: "Sisters, don't hide and hide. Just now I saw a girl wearing pomegranate red in the south window on the second floor in the back street. Why didn't she come?"

After he finished speaking, the smiles of the girls who were laughing just now froze instantly.

The woman with the peony flower on her head looked at the girl beside her, "Pomegranate red, isn't it a little pomegranate?"

Hu Yibai moved his ears and looked over: "Little Pomegranate?"

One of the girls timidly said: "Just now you said that she lived in the room by the south window on the second floor, and she is the only one here who likes to wear pomegranate red clothes."

Hu Yibai: "Is there a pomegranate hairpin behind the left ear?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire private room suddenly became depressed, and the expressions on everyone's faces were pale.

Feng Ling, who hadn't spoken this time, said, "What's wrong with her, why didn't she come?"

The smallest girl was squeezed in front of her, with a face that was about to cry: "Guests, are you trying to scare people on purpose, no, it's impossible to see her, little pomegranate has been dead for three years, the room next to the south window It's already been sealed..."

The author has something to say:

Hu Yibai picked up a petal: he was jealous, he was not jealous, he was jealous, but not jealous... no, take another flower.

Hua: Are you polite :)
