Chapter 216 Blue Moon

What does it mean to lose something in one place and gain something in another?

That's it!!

How to get the words out of me is the problem.

After a short silence, I coughed twice to clear my throat, and patted Brother Yaozi on the shoulder, motioning him to put me down, put my hands behind my back, and try to imitate my master. At least I have to have the demeanor of a master, right? People say that they have violated the law of heaven, so the person who is in charge of this matter must be a hermit?

Of course I won't say that the two of us were tossed around by Hu Wa. Even Brother Yaozi turned his face away tactfully, not letting his big dark circles under his eyes always hang around in front of women, which is really embarrassing.

After a moment of hesitation, I reached out to help the woman on the ground, but the moment I bent down, the whole person's movement froze directly.

It was nothing else, it started to hurt again...

And the pain was extremely severe, with a terrible tearing feeling, which made me dizzy and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.

The woman looked up, and she had been begging non-stop, but now she became quiet. She looked at me in surprise and asked rather awkwardly, "What's wrong with you?"

I stood up expressionlessly and let out a long breath. Those who didn't know probably thought that I had just finished my power. I whispered, "Don't worry, we don't have the habit of killing innocent people indiscriminately, but rules are rules after all. Hu Wa is now walking on a very dangerous road. If you take a wrong step, you will be doomed. Do you understand?"

The woman bowed her head and sobbed, and nodded silently.

This look made me unable to pretend anymore.

However, in order to understand the hidden truth, I could only do this.

This woman is a fearless person. When we came before, she was very tight-lipped and didn't show anything. But later, it may be that Hu Wa's overreaction made her think of something wrong, and she thought we were the master of the heavenly rules and came to take Hu Wa's life. That's why she did this.

As for her own life, she didn't care much. She only cared about Hu Wa.

If I say that we are not here for Hu Wa at all, and that Brother Yaozi dares to kill people, but I don't dare to do it, I'm afraid this woman will have a different attitude.

Who said that husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they fly away when disaster strikes?

Isn't this a pair that doesn't fly?

Although the wisdom of the husband and wife seems to be insufficient, it is probably only these clumsy people who can really do this step, giving up their lives just for each other. If people are too smart, they will only think about themselves. Which ugly thing in the world is not done by smart people?

I sighed in my heart, and after a little consideration of the words, I said again: "The four of us brothers and sisters traveled around the world, specializing in dealing with the chaos between yin and yang. When we came here, we knew that someone must be stirring up trouble. After several investigations, we finally locked Hu Wa. However, I don't think he looks like a villain. When I think of your body, I know that he was helpless. In fact, he is a very passionate person. Therefore, when my brother and I caught up with him in the mountains, we showed some mercy. Unexpectedly, he hit us back..."

The woman was about to kowtow and apologize, but was supported by Lao Bai.

"If I'm not mistaken, the so-called immortal in this mountain is actually an unclean thing, right? Hu Wa, is it this thing that he has taken refuge with?"

This is my guess, and then I said: "You know, if you seek the skin of a tiger, you will not die well in the end, and you will inevitably be eaten by the tiger. Hu Wa escaped from us and seems to be safe, but in fact, now is the most dangerous moment!!"

The woman's face changed.

"Tell us everything you know."

I said, "Since we have seen clearly what kind of people you two are, we will not kill them without any reason. The thing in the mountain is what we really need to get rid of, so that we can have peace and tranquility here. Can you tell me where that thing is?"

The woman hesitated...

From her appearance, it was clear that she did not want to protect the so-called fairy. Deep in her eyes, there was a deeper fear, which should be out of fear, worrying that her wrong decision would bring disaster to Hu Wa.

Lao Bai also saw what kind of temperament this woman had, so he stopped forcing her, and said at the right time: "In the eyes of ghosts, how can there be benevolence and human life? Your husband works for ghosts, but he is actually just a tool in their hands, and he is the ghost's spokesperson in the world. Now he has been exposed, and all his value is gone. I am afraid his end will be miserable."

This sentence completely broke all the woman's defenses, and she finally nodded: "However, I know very little, and Hu Wa rarely tells me."

I raised my chin towards the inner room and motioned to go in and talk.

As soon as the woman left, I immediately squatted down with my crotch covered. God has mercy on me. I have been enduring it all the time, it's too hard...

After a short rest, the pain eased a little, and I held Brother Yaozi's shoulders. It looked like we were arm in arm, but in fact I completely used him as a crutch, and then I walked into the inner room.

The woman sat opposite the kang table and slowly talked about what happened in their family.

The woman's surname is Chen, and her name is Chen Lian. The beginning of this matter probably started five years ago.

Five years ago, God was blind. In the beginning of autumn, a heavy rain lasted for several days, which caused the two or three hundred acres of thin fields in this village to suffer. Because they planted all sunflowers, it was already the harvest season. Under the flooding of rain, the sunflower bracts all rotted, and the sunflower seeds they harvested naturally became moldy. They could have sold them at a good price, but in the end they were sold at a price that was almost negligible.

The villagers had a hard time in the past year, so they could only think of going to the mountains. Some went to pick mushrooms, and some went to dig medicinal herbs.

Hu Wa was also among them. He was a hardworking man. He got up early and went to bed late. He refused to go home for several days and was busy digging medicinal herbs in the mountains.

One night, he was so tired that he leaned against a tree and fell asleep. He slept very soundly. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was actually carried on the back of a tiger! !

This frightened Hu Wa. Although there were some wild animals in the mountains, they were at most roe deer and rabbits. Occasionally, a few wild boars in the fields were considered big beasts. Not to mention tigers, even wolves had never been seen before! !

In the face of crisis, Hu Wa was quick-witted and remembered the description of tigers by his elders.

In fact, this kind of beast usually does not eat people unless it is extremely hungry!

Since this tiger attacked him, it must have been without prey for a long time, but it did not eat him immediately. What kind of thing was this?

Then, he thought of a possibility - this was a tigress, and there was probably a cub waiting for it to hunt back!

This tiger treated him as a fresh corpse! !

Thinking of this, he dared not move even more and continued to pretend to be dead. He knew that as long as he moved, the tiger would definitely throw him down and bite him to death without hesitation! !

Hu Wa was carried by the tiger for a long time. Although he lived in this mountain, the place where the tiger took him was a deep mountain that he had never set foot on.

Soon, he was thrown into the tiger's den by the tiger. Several little tigers that were similar to domestic dogs immediately pounced on him and bit him. He instinctively curled up to prevent the little tigers from biting his neck and digging out his abdomen to eat his internal organs.

Perhaps it was not his fate. At this time, the mother tiger felt something and suddenly roared loudly, and roared at the little tigers. She even rushed up and took one away directly. A group of tigers ran away in the blink of an eye, leaving only him in the tiger's den. He just saved his life inexplicably.

But this is a deep mountain. Looking around, the surroundings are exactly the same, all are unchanging primitive forests. How can he go back? Moreover, he had been bitten by those little tigers before, and several pieces of flesh were torn off his body. His body was covered with scars and bloodstains, but he gritted his teeth and persisted. In this way, he walked in the mountains for a day and a night without realizing it.

He walked out of the jungle and entered a large meadow, and then he finally couldn't hold on and fell to the ground.

"At that time, he saw a scene that he will never forget in his life."

Chen Lian said: "It was late at night, he looked up and saw that the moon in the sky was blue, and then, a blue lake appeared on the meadow, shining, very beautiful... That fairy, no, that unclean thing you said, appeared at that time, and walked out of the lake step by step!"

"This is nonsense..."

Lao Bai muttered: "Why is there a blue moon again? It's so weird. As far as I know, the last time a blue moon appeared was nearly ten years ago. How come you had a blue moon six years ago?! Could it be that we are not under the same sky? Could it be that Hu Wa had hallucinations at that time?"

"It's true!!"

Chen Lian said: "Hu Wa came back and ran out to ask others. They said that once the blue moon appears, it means that a huge disaster will come. Therefore, the blue lake represents bad luck. Think about it, once the blue lake appears, the unclean thing appears, which shows that the folk saying is right! However, when Hu Wa went there later, he never saw the blue lake again, which shows how unusual this lake is!"

Seeing that she was so sure, we looked at each other, wondering what was going on.

Blue lake... Could it be that the tomb is there? !

Under the lake?

But this lake is so weird that it only appears when the blue moon appears in the sky? !

Forgive me, a ceremonial officer, for my shallow knowledge. I have never heard of such an operation. Chen Lian said that even I am a little skeptical about life. Could it be that this blue moon is really related to some disaster?

After a moment of silence, I decided not to think about this question for now. I looked at Chen Lian and said, "Go on, tell me how you got involved with this thing!?"
