Chapter 104: Trapped in an evil array

Something must be wrong when things are abnormal.

Yan Luo suddenly regretted stopping in this village.

Yan Feng noticed her expression and couldn't help but look over there.

It was pitch black, with gusts of mountain wind, and nothing was different.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, go to sleep."

In the evening, Yan Luo ate a box of fried chicken covered with sweet and spicy sauce in the space. She still felt a little uncomfortable, so she simply changed into black clothes and quietly left the compound.

There was no electricity, the lights could not be turned on at night, and there was no rich nightlife. Everyone in the village was asleep, and there was not even a bark of a dog.

On such a dead silent night, Yan Luo sat on the tree, staring coldly at a young man who was hunched over and moving slowly on the ground.

This young man was the one who ran away when he saw them during the day.

His father didn't allow him to come into contact with this group of monks, but he was just curious. The senior monk of Tianmo Temple said that monks looked down on mortals, but he seemed to have awakened his spiritual roots, and he didn't look down on the people in the village because of this.

He planned to secretly go and see what the monks were doing. Did they not need beds at night and sleep on ropes like Jin Yong's martial arts novels?

Do they not need to work by themselves, can they solve all problems with a wave of their hands?

Also, do they not need to... Excretion

Seeing that they were getting closer to the compound, Yan Luo threw a leaf down from the tree trunk.

The leaf was light and weightless, but as soon as it left Yan Luo's hand, it was like an arrow shot from a bow, with great force, hitting the boy's leg with a bang.

"Ouch!"

The boy felt so much pain that he almost fell to the ground.

"What are you doing?"

Yan Luo's voice was like cold water in winter, icy and piercing, pouring over his head, making the boy shudder.

He looked up suddenly.

Then he saw a woman in black sitting on a stretched-out branch of a century-old locust tree. She was leaning against the tree trunk behind her, with one foot casually placed on the branch and the other foot hanging down, swaying gently, just half a meter in front of his head.

The woman was extremely beautiful, like a night-blooming cereus, more dazzling than any star he had seen on TV.

Seeing him staring at her without moving, Yan Luo sat up straight and said impatiently,

"What are you daydreaming about?"

"Well"

The boy came back to his senses.

Faced with such a beautiful woman, the boy was not alert at all and forgot everything his father taught him.

"I, I, you, are you the monk who came today?"

"Yes, so, what are you doing here sneaking around?"

The boy looked like a thief who had been caught. He said awkwardly,

"I was just a little curious and wanted to see what you were like."

Yan Luo thought that a boy of fifteen or sixteen would not have any bad intentions.

Even if there is, it can't cause any waves in the face of absolute strength.

"Where are you?"

"Stone Village"

"How many people are left in the village?"

"About two hundred people."

"Are there no outsiders?"

"Our village is very remote. Who knew there was a village here? That's why there are no outsiders."

This is a good environment during a natural disaster.

However, there were originally four or five hundred people in the village, and half of them died while going up the mountain to hunt for food.

The villagers are now worried because the wild beasts in the mountains are too dangerous and the yields of grains and vegetables planted in the village are average and not enough to eat.

Yan Luo frowned and looked at the sky above the center of the village again.

It is impossible that there are no outsiders. If there are no outsiders, then how did the formation come about?

She said,

"Are you sure there are no outsiders?"

The boy's eyes flickered and he said,

"Are you sure?"

The change in his expression caught Yan Luo's attention, and he knew that the child must be lying.

However, this formation is obviously an evil formation. Do the people in the village know about it?

"Forget it, just go back now..."

After a pause, she said,

"Don't just pry into strangers' affairs in the future, especially when they are more powerful than you.

You'll lose your life."

After saying this, Yan Luo no longer appeared on the tree.

The young man looked at the place where Yan Luo had sat in shock. After a while, he obediently returned to his home.

Yan Luo followed him all the way and saw that he lived in the front of the village, where there were five or six households. He climbed over the wall carefully and soon heard the sound of being beaten.

Yan Luo shook his head and smiled.

He turned and looked towards the center of the village.

If she saw it correctly, there was a faint red color on the young man's forehead. It seemed that the formation in the sky was taking effect.

Yan Luo thought to himself that they should leave this troubled place early tomorrow morning and avoid getting into trouble.

So she returned to the compound and slept soundly all night.

The next day, Yang Qingru and Bai Yue cooked porridge early. Yan Luo stretched and came out to eat, but when she saw everyone, she was stunned for a moment.

Why do they

all have a small red dot in the middle of their foreheads?

It is so small that it is almost invisible to the naked eye.

This is just like the people in the village.

Yan Luo's expression turned cold.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Yue thought Yan Luo was angry and felt a little uneasy.

Yan Luo took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart, and said,

"We should be trapped in a formation."

"Array?"

Yan Feng ran over in a hurry.

"Sister, what kind of formation is this? Why can't we feel anything?"

Yan Luo pondered for a moment and explained,

"This should be an ancient evil formation that improves one's own cultivation by absorbing the essence and cultivation of others.

The person who sets up the formation can therefore quickly increase his cultivation level without having to struggle on the long road of cultivation.

I once read in an ancient book that there was a large evil sect that killed tens of thousands of people in order to improve their cultivation.

As he spoke, Yan Luo's expression became serious and his speech slowed down.

Everyone's faces were filled with anger and fear. Bai Yue asked,

"Are we being sucked of our essence and cultivation by others now?"

Yan Luo nodded seriously.

Hearing this, everyone almost sat on the ground.

"What should I do? Should I break the formation?"

Yan Luo said,

"Not bad."

Unexpectedly, they are now tied to the same rope with the people of this village.

It's just that they have just started, so the impact is not big, but the people in the village have been invaded by the formation for some time and are in a weak state.

Yan Luo tentatively led his men to leave the village. They were able to leave, but the mark on his forehead did not disappear.

Even if you don't use the mark, it will have an impact wherever you go.

"How do we break this formation? We don't even know where it is set up."

"If you don't know, go out and look for it."

Yan Luo said,

"The people in the village don't have the ability to do this. They must be outsiders. Let's go out and find out if there are any outsiders recently, and then find out where the outsiders went after they came.

We can start from where outsiders have been."

Yan Luo thought of the boy's resistance and added,

"Don't ask directly, ask indirectly."
