Chapter 14 Xiaoyou
The new days of Yayunmena are getting closer and closer, and more and more people are coming to Heiyan Town. Even many private houses are taken out to provide accommodation. The townspeople who were originally very happy began to complain about the crowding and noisy town.
The people in Heiyan Town were crowded with people, and the market was very lively. After several days of flying with swords, Wutuo also came here.
Wu Zhuo knew that it was not far from Yayun Gate, so he wanted to stay in Heiyan Town for a while, but found that all the restaurants, inns and B&Bs were crowded. Wu Zhuo was a little unwilling to give up and knocked on the door of the last house at the end of the alley.
"Dongdongdongdongdong."
Wuzhu knocked on the old courtyard gate and said, "Is anyone there? Is anyone at home?"
After waiting for a while, seeing no response, Wu Zhuo turned around and was about to leave.
"Squeak."
The old courtyard gate was opened, and a wrinkled old woman poked her head out and saw that Wu Zhuo was about to leave, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Wu Zhuo saw that it was an old woman. Although her clothes were clean, they were all patches. She leaned on a cane made of thick branches. From the smoothness, it can be seen that she had been using it for many years.
"Old man, I'm here to stay for a stay. Is it convenient for your home to stay for a few nights?" Wu Zhuo asked.
The old woman's expression was a little strange, but she couldn't say that there was anything strange. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Young man, if you don't dislike it, just stay here for a few days."
Wu Zhuo didn't have much hope at first, but he never thought that the old woman agreed to Wu Zhuo's request so easily.
"Thank you, old man." Wu Zhuo thanked.
"Follow me." The old woman turned around and walked into the courtyard. Seeing Wuzhu following in, she continued, "Close the door and use the second door bolt on the right."
Wu Zhuo was stunned and looked at the door bolt on the right. Sure enough, he picked up the second one he said and inserted it into the door.
Only then did I have time to look at the yard in front of me. This yard is not big and covered with stone slabs. When I walk up, I will make a creaking sound. Strangely, the old woman walks up without any sound at all.
Wu Zhuo was a little confused and stopped. The old woman pointed to the side room on the left with a crutch and said, "You can live in this room."
Wu Zhuo looked at the side room that the old woman pointed to. This was the second room on the west side. The door leaf was a little loose, the gap was very large, the window coffin had been deformed, and the front of the house was covered with weeds. It was obvious that it had not been to anyone for a long time.
Although it looks dilapidated, it is always a residence to shelter from the wind and rain. After thanking the old woman again, Wu Zhuo walked towards the house.
"Remember to be quiet. I'm old and I'm not used to noisy." The old woman reminded, and after saying that, she staggered back into the house and closed the door.
Wuzhu looked around the courtyard for a week, and there were five rooms in total. The main house faced north and south, two rooms on both sides. The first room on both sides was obviously like a regular house that was often lived in, and there were not often people in the remaining two rooms, and the front of the house seemed much messy.
Judging from this situation, there should be people living here and they can't hear other people's voices. Maybe they have gone out. Wu Zhuo thought of walking to his house and pushed open the dusty door.
"Huh?" Wu Zhuo was a little incredible. The room was clean and not as unbearable as you saw outside. Although the room was not big, a bed, a table, and a chair also met all the needs of Wu Zhuo.
As soon as Wu Zhuo closed the door, he heard something happening on the other side of the courtyard.
"Open the door, open the door!" Two loud roars accompanied by the sound of the yard door being knocked. Wu Zhuo was a little surprised and thought to himself who this is, so unreasonable. But after all, it was someone else's family, so it was hard to go out.
I saw the old woman slowly walked out of the room, not angry, it seemed that she knew who was knocking on the door. The person outside the door shouted impatiently: "Hurry up, I have told you how many times I told you not to insert the door during the day, but I just don't listen."
The old woman finally walked to the yard gate and took off the latch. Before she could make it open, the yard gate was pushed open. The old woman almost fell out. Fortunately, she took a few steps in a hurry and stopped.
The man had a fat face, seven feet long, big bra and thick waist, and carried a sack behind him. After coming in, he walked into the first room on the east side. The old woman closed the door and inserted the door bolt.
He turned around but looked at the room where Wu Zhuo lived. At this moment, Wu Zhuo was staring at the yard through the crack of the door. Wu Zhuo didn't know if the old woman could see him, but she still felt like she was facing each other. The old woman's eyes were empty and cold, which made Wu Zhuo's back feel cold involuntarily.
Wu Zhuo leaned against the door, a little surprised. From the time he came in, he always felt that everything that happened was strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange.
Forget it, Wu Zhuo lay on the bed and thought: Maybe it was because he was too tired. After all, since he left Sanchong Lan, he had not slept comfortably in the bed. Forget it, I won’t make random guesses.
Gradually, his tiredness made him fall asleep unconsciously.
※※※※
Wutuo always hears many noisy and irregular sounds in a daze, as if they lasted for a long time, but there was still no sign of stopping. Because it was because of staying, some unfamiliar sounds were normal. Wutuo turned over and continued to fall asleep soundly, ignoring it.
"Dongdong, dudongdong..." There was a rapid knock on the door.
"Who?" Wu Zhuo suddenly woke up, and it was pitch black all over, probably midnight.
An old and anxious voice said, "Save me, save me, save me quickly."
Wuzhu hurriedly opened the door. An old man in rags stood outside the door, with panic in his expression. Wuzhu glanced around the courtyard and asked, "Old man, what happened?"
"Save me, save me, kill..." Before the old man finished speaking, his expression frozen at this moment and fell to one side.
Wu Zhuo saw the old man being killed by a hidden arrow. With the faint moonlight, he could see someone flashing across the rooftop opposite. Wu Zhuo chased after him without saying a word. The figure had long disappeared. Wu Zhuo returned to the courtyard and found that the first room on the east side was covering the door. Wu Zhuo walked up. Before he could push the door open, he smelled a pungent smell of blood. Wu Zhuo pushed open the door. The scene in front of him made Wu Zhuo unable to help but take a few steps back.
The room was not big, with three complete human-shaped skeletons hanging on the beam in the middle. I don’t know who shaved it. There was a corpse hanging in one corner of the room. His hands and feet had been cut off and placed on the table next to him. There was still a wooden barrel under the corpse, which was now full of blood.
Wu Zhu was shocked. The corpse in the corner was the seven-foot man he saw in the daytime. Now he ended up like this. Wu Zhu was thinking, and suddenly he felt someone behind him. The green light sword came out. Wu Zhu turned around and said, "Who is it?"
The light of the green light sword was printed on the old woman's face, but the old woman did not dodge and gently pushed away the green light sword in front of her with a crutch and said, "You're scared, don't be afraid."
"Who are you?" Wu Zhuo saw that the old woman was calm and without any timidity, so he knew that this person should not be looked down upon, and said, "Are these bones done by you?"
The old woman waved her hand and said, "I have long since been using these ordinary things."
Anything?
Wutuo thought, is this old woman not a human? He once heard from his master that there are many creatures in this world who can transform into human form. Could it be that this old woman is?
Suddenly, two cold lights came fiercely, and the green light sabre body was stepped on the side, and two crisp sounds of weapons colliding, two black iron darts fell in response to the sound.
Wu Zhuo looked sideways, and there was a "silhouette" standing on the roof. It was a human but not a human. The figure had a long tail, swaying slightly behind him.
The "shadow" jumped down and smiled and said, "You have a great cultivation."
Wu Zhuo vaguely saw the appearance of this "human figure" through the moonlight. There was a pair of beast ears. It seemed that his guess was correct and said, "Are you... a monster?"
"I know a lot." The enchanting "shadow" approached Wuzhu and looked at him.
The old woman knocked her crutch on the ground and said, "Xiao You, don't have the idea of this person, be careful not to make a profit."
Xiao You replied lightly.
Wu Zhuo was stunned and looked at the old woman. The old woman turned around and walked back to her room. Before closing the door, she said, "These killed people deserve their crimes, not some good people."
"Hey." Xiaoyou saw the old woman closing the door, Wuzhuo was still stunned and said, "Why are you still standing there? Go back to your room."
Although Wu Zhuo had no good feelings for these monsters, after hearing the old woman's words just now, at least he knew that these monsters did not harm others casually, so he was not so disgusted. He looked at Xiao You in front of him and asked, "Why do you want to do such a thing at the foot of Yayun Sect? If the Yayun Sect knows about it, you will not have a good life."
"What's so scary about Yayun Sect? No one is afraid of having my grandma." Xiao You said fearlessly.
"Then what do you want these people to do?" Wu Zhuo asked in confusion.
"Only by sucking human essence and blood can we become humanoid faster. But grandma said that she could only suck those vicious and vicious people, and..."
Before Xiaoyou could finish her words, the old woman's voice was heard from the room and said with some displeasure: "Xiaoyou!"
"Oh, I got it." Xiao You dragged the old man who was lying in front of Wuzhuo House back to the first room on the east side and closed the door.
The five turbidities were in place. When the master was talking about these things, he didn't believe it. Today, he saw it as he said.
