Chapter 764

The letter was sent by Chu Chenzhou, saying that the poison of corpses and poisons in Qingniu Mountain were scattered. When they arrived, several nearby villages almost became deserted villages. There were not many medicines left before and they needed to be replenished as soon as possible.

Si Haochen held the "secret letter" in his hand, and the blue veins on the back of his hand swelled up: "Hurry up and hurry up and change the horses by the station."

“Yes, Master.”

Although I don’t know what is written in the secret letter, changing the horses to rush on the road means that the situation is urgent and there is almost no rest along the way.

The two carriages rushed day and night and finally entered Qingniu Town on the afternoon of the fourth day. The Jiangnan was rich. Although Qingniu Town was not big, the city gates and walls were built very solidly and neatly. The streets were also paved with bluestone, and there were shops on both sides of the street, which should be quite prosperous.

However, just after the beginning of the day, all the shops closed down. The streets were empty, and occasionally there were one or two pedestrians, all of which were in a hurry.

Fifteen thought the town was a bit weird. He happened to pass by a pharmacy shop. The guy was closing the door panel, so he stopped the carriage and asked, "Brother, is it closed so early?"

When the young man heard someone talking to him, he not only refused to respond, but instead accelerated his movements. As soon as the door panel was hung, he crawled into the shop and tied the door to death with two clangs.

Fifteen walked closer and just stretched out his hand to pull the guy to ask. Unfortunately, he was slowing down and almost got his hand clamped by the door panel: "Hey?"

Fifteen was about to knock on the door, but the young man said through the door panel: "I want to buy medicine and come soon tomorrow..."

"I don't buy medicine, I just want to ask for a way." Shiwu was speechless. Someone really bought life-saving medicine. By tomorrow, people would have died long ago, right?

"Are you from another place? Hurry up and find a place to stay. The inn will be closed any later!" Then I added, "Don't leave outside when it's dark, it's dangerous!"

"I just wanted to ask, how to get to Yunlai Inn in the town?" I was finally able to ask for directions, and Shiwu was so tired.

"Walk north along the street, turn west of the intersection and you can see..."

"Thank you!" Fifteen touched a chunk of silver and wanted to give it to the young man. But the door panel was closed tightly and it was difficult to stuff a piece of paper into it, so he had to put the silver on the threshold, "I'll treat you to tea for this silver."

Fifteen jumped into the carriage, waved his whip and drove the car northward. He tsk two times on his mouth, and he didn't even come out to take the silver in front of him. He was afraid that the ghost would come to catch him...

Turning around the corner, you can see the sign of Yunlai Inn at a glance. It was really said by the guy. The inn was really closed, and the door panel was tighter than the pharmacy.

Fifteenth, he knocked on the door, and heard someone reply inside: "Today, the guests are full, please find another place to stay."

Fifteen took a deep breath and lowered his voice and said, "Baota River Demon."

"Hey?" The person inside was stunned for a moment before stammering, "Please wait...I...I'll go find the shopkeeper...the shopkeeper!"

Soon, a sound of unstable breath came from behind the door: "Please knock on the door again."

Fifteen knocked on the door at the rhythm again, and the people inside immediately said the secret code: "The king of heaven covers the earth tiger."

"Pauta River Demon!" Fifteenth faced the secret code and immediately urged, "Open the door quickly, the master is here!"

"Okay, open the door right away."

There was a twitching sound behind the door, and then the door creaked open. A man with a national face stuck his head out and stared at Shiwu up and down.

When the fifteenth showed his waist sign, the man immediately came out: "This adult, the carriage must enter through the back door."

"Yeah." Fifteen put down his pedal, "Master, we're here."

Si Haochen helped his wife get off the carriage, and Chuyi and Shifen followed the buddy and drove the carriage around the back door.

The two masters stood at the door and observed across the street.

The shopkeeper looked at the sky and smiled a little far-fetchedly: "Master, Madam, please come inside."

"What kind of shop is there? Why are there so many people?" As we walked over, we could count the people we saw with five fingers, but there was a queue in front of the shop opposite, which seemed out of place.

Mingruo and Si Haochen walked into the inn, and the shopkeeper quickly closed the door. Seeing the shopkeeper put five door bolts on it, Mingruo was shocked.

"Haha." The shopkeeper laughed embarrassedly, "Mrs. I don't know that the town has been uneasy recently. After the sun is west, evil spirits will appear and bite them when they see living things. Not only do they bite people, but they don't even let go of chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs..."

The shopkeeper seemed to have thought of something terrible and couldn't help but tremble: "It is said that if a person bitten does not die, he will become an evil spirit and bite it everywhere...

When the lady saw someone queuing up, she was a shop that specialized in selling talismans. The talismans drawn by Taoist priests can drive away evil spirits…”

"Huh?" Si Haochen raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't believe this at all. But here the troubles were caused by corpse poison. If the talisman was useful, Uncle Seven would have taken action long ago.

"It's really useful." The shopkeeper carefully took out a piece of yellow paper from the cash box under the counter. "There were always evil spirits coming to the door before. Since he invited the talisman and posted it on the door at night, he has been much more peaceful."

Mingruo took the "talisman" with great interest, and he, the heir of the senior Xuanyi family, couldn't even understand a character. The caterpillar was like a fight, and it was beyond recognition.

"The ghost painting talisman is easier to recognize than this." Ming Ruo returned the talisman to the shopkeeper, "How much is this talisman silver?"

"This one is fifty taels, which can be used for five days." The shopkeeper quickly explained, "There are still thirty taels, which can be used for three days. One hundred taels, which can be used for half a month..."

"It's clear that the price is just a little darker." Ming Ruo put his hand into the 'sleeved bag', took out a handful of herbs and put them on the table. Mixed several herbs evenly, then grabbed a bunch and tied them into knots. Without considering the beauty, he quickly weaved five grass rings.

"Hang these up, just like talismans." Ming Ruo gave the grass ring to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took Cao Huan skeptically and asked with some uncertainty: "This... is really OK?"

Ming Ruo's lips curled slightly: "Smell it carefully. Is the smell of this grass ring somewhat similar to that talisman?"

After Jing Mingruo said this, the shopkeeper quickly smelled it and was surprised to find that the two tasted similar. However, the fragrance of the grass ring was stronger and clearer.

"The talisman works with the talisman paper soaked in grass juice, and the runes are just random paintings." Ming Ruo explained kindly.

"So that's it." The shopkeeper nodded and hurriedly called the guy to hang the grass ring on the doors and windows. "No wonder the talisman paper is yellow and green..."

Qiu Shui put her luggage down and got down from the upper floor: "Master, Madam, the room has been cleaned up and can go up and rest."

"Okay." Ming Ruo had something to say to Si Haochen, and pulled his husband's sleeve upstairs.
