Otherworldly Merchant

Chapter 762: Mudslides

The next time I spoke to Gaja's parents, I deliberately directed my words to their ancestors to see if they might have come into contact with the shadow body? But the content of the Second Old Man's speech is very ordinary, the ancestors are Xiangxi's indigenous farmers, there is little valuable information.

Peng Woo saw my thoughts and followed me while I was going to the bathroom to ask if I had found anything.

“It doesn't look like an accident...” I frowned.

“Is someone trying to hurt Gaja?” Peng Woo got nervous as soon as he heard.

I shook my head, if I just wanted to harm Jia Jia, any shadow body could kill her, and that thing hasn't done anything until now, I must want to use Jia Jia Jia to do something.

The presence of shadow bodies on the hills next to the village suggests that it was a battlefield a long time ago, and that it was likely that the then evicted man would never leave his home. There must have been a descendant of the evicted man among the inhabitants of the village.

When I thought about it, I asked Peng Woo if there was a dead man in the village. Or do you know who the ancestors have done this?

Peng Yu turned his eyes for half a day and said, "I haven't really noticed this since I've been away all year. ”

“Forget it. ”

I can tell from his years of military service that he has become Mune. I don't want to get any useful news from him. Why don't you just go back to the house and ask the two old men.

What surprised me was that they hadn't even heard from Mr. Chase, Jiajia's father even remembered: “There should have been no such person in the previous generation. When it was broken, only a few wizards in the village were dragged into battle. If there was a Mr. Chase, they would certainly have caught him. ”

He said the head of the line, I can only give up this idea temporarily and focus on Jia Jia.

When everyone fell asleep in the second half of the night, Jiajia snuck out like the day before.

Since I was spotted yesterday when I was following him, I had to ask Tail Jade to keep up with me until he found out.

After Taiyu followed her away, Peng Woo and I jumped along the roof into Jiajia's room. After he went in to take a look, he reached out and wanted to touch the little mirror on the dresser. I stopped him quickly.

“Gaja's sense of smell is very sensitive, don't touch anything here! ”

As soon as Peng Yu listened to the handles of "Yi" retrieved, I just carefully measured them. The room is very clean. Aside from the tiles in the corner, it can be said that they are spotless. It feels very ancient. It's just that it's cold in this room, not a bit popular!

After a few minutes, I didn't find any clues. Instead, Peng Woo couldn't stand it. He shook up and asked when I was going out.

I glanced at him and asked him to go out and guard me. Peng Woo wiped a cold sweat and opened the door and ran out. I locked the door and wiped it with a paper towel and re-measured it, eventually finding some long hair under the dresser.

I cautiously grabbed a few hairs and put them in my pockets, so I grabbed the rope and climbed to the roof a little bit.

Soon after, Tai-yu returned. She was depressed and said: "Bad brother, half her scent suddenly disappeared, so...”

“Just do your best. ”

I sighed and retrieved her. I couldn't even trace the tail jade. I couldn't think of any other way.

At this point, my back suddenly got cold and something seemed to be staring at me behind my back.

I paused and turned my head and saw the crazy old lady I met sitting in a big tree looking at me cold.

When I saw the past, the old lady waved at me, pointing to the house under my feet.

She obviously knew something, and I didn't say a word and ran along the nearby house cool and turned around under the tree.

“Hands are okay. ”

She nodded and jumped directly from the tree, making only a slight noise of sand as she landed.

I asked myself if I could do this, and I had to look at her more.

“Two days of stalking failed, didn't it? ”

“Wherever the girl goes, the shadow will follow her, and no one will follow her unless she reveals herself!” The old lady grinned.

My heart trembled, followed by an incredible opening: "No way! Shadow bodies can only come and go in certain circumstances and never wander around like you said. ”

The old lady laughed and asked me if I knew how far the shadow body was going. I couldn't speak for half a day when she asked me.

After a while, she said to herself, "The whole of Xiangxi is full of shadow bodies. Didn't you notice the clothes on them? ”

She's right, Jiajia should be gathering all the shadow bodies in the neighborhood together so that no matter where she goes, there's no shortage of these invisible bodyguards around her!

“You spy on me! ”

The old lady made it clear that I had been moving everywhere for two days and had obviously been staring at me behind my back.

“I'm protecting you! ”

The old lady didn't deny it. She sighed at the deserted mountains in the distance and asked if I would cooperate with her.

“I have a mud trick in my hand, and as long as Jiajia eats it, even if she runs to the sky, she can't escape my sight. ”

After that, she pulled a small bottle out of her arms and handed it over. I didn't answer it. I took a cold step back and asked, “Who are you and what's the purpose of approaching me? ”

“To help you, of course.” She has a funny smile on her face: “You can do it yourself without the mud, but you better hurry, that girl won't last long. ”

“You...”

I bit my teeth and stared at her, but I couldn't see what she was thinking, and eventually breathed out and grabbed the mud in her hand.

“That's right! ”

The old lady laughed and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say anything else. Not far away came the sound of footsteps. Then came Peng Woo's voice: “Jiulin, are you there? ”

The old lady's face changed and suddenly she laughed and pulled a weed off the floor and threw it at me. Hip-hop scolded and jumped away.

I couldn't help but stand still, the old lady just pretended to be insane, unlike when facing other villagers, she seemed to be particularly unscrupulous Peng Woo, why?

I didn't go back until Peng Woo came up. He asked me how I got here. I said I saw someone here and took a look. I didn't expect it to be that crazy woman.

After saying that, I took a sip pretending to be very unlucky. I looked at him quietly when I lowered my head. I didn't know if it was a hallucination or something. I always thought that Peng Woo's eyes were a little complicated.

We went into the yard together, and Peng Woo sighed and asked me what to do. I thought about deciding not to tell him about the mudslides, just to say think about it.

That night we stopped caring about Jia Jia, went back to her room and slept. I just went in and laid down Yoon Xinyue and opened my eyes. Poor thing asked me if things were going well.

“Hard to say! ”

Even tracking Jiajia took so long, it was hard to imagine how good the guy was behind it.

“Brother Zhang, no... let's go. ”

Yin Xinyue shrunk in the quilt and said in a low voice. Previously, she was particularly interested in this kind of thing, and now she has a little difficulty wanting to retreat, saying that she was a mother and had a connection.

“There has to be a result, besides, do you really care about Peng Woo? ”

I grinned and held her in my arms. Yin Xinyue shouted 'Alas’ and stopped talking.

When she woke up the next day, Jia Jia unexpectedly locked herself in the house again, and the fire on her was weak.

By lunch, Jiajia's mother was carrying a bowl to deliver her meal. I thought of the mud trick the old lady gave me, and I took the bowl and put the mud trick in.

However, to confuse Jiajia, I found another dead porcupine to put in another bowl of rice for Jiajia's mother to serve in.

“Why are you so careful? ”

Yun Xinyue asked unexpectedly. I couldn't help but say that she was too alert. It was always good to be careful.

Sure enough, after a short while, Jiajia walked out with a cold face, clamped the dead yellow beard with chopsticks and looked at me, laughing with disdain, then walked to the table and served a bowl of rice again.

That's the bowl with the mud punch!

As soon as Jiajia entered the door, Yin Xinyue gave me a thumbs up, but I wasn't as optimistic as she was. I hurried to the door and watched her with an invisible needle.

Jiajia put the bowl on the dresser and lowered her head to smell it. Though I didn't smell anything from the mudslides, it didn't mean she couldn't smell it, and for a moment my heart mentioned the eyes of my voice.

Fortunately, after she smelled it, she picked up the chopsticks and ate them, watching her eat a bowl of rice into her stomach, and I was completely relieved.

Although I didn't see the scene where she ate the mud loaf, she must have eaten it. I think the old lady must have done something on the mud loaf, otherwise Jiajia wouldn't have put her guard down so easily!

I've been searching the Internet all afternoon for information about the dead, but unfortunately I haven't found any definitive information. There are a lot of literary descriptions, but that would interfere with my thinking.

T-shirt men and Chiang Dao Chang should know a little, but now is not the time to ask them, I had to let myself relax for a while and have a beautiful sleep.

After dinner, Peng Yu couldn't wait to ask me what I had in mind. He must have seen from my calm that I had a plan.

“Keep tracking! ”

I covered up the past, and Peng Yu didn't really believe me for a while, but didn't say much.
