My Lady Is Not A Demon

Chapter 407 Meng Yanqing’s dangerous journey!

After investigating the temple, Chen Mu quietly returned to the other courtyard.

But as soon as I entered the yard, I saw a figure sitting in front of the corridor, like a stone sculpture under the dark moonlight.

This figure is not someone else, it is the old man.

Just when Chen Mu was hesitant to avoid it, the old man’s low voice sounded: “Where have you been?”

Chen Mu had to step forward, rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly: “I feel a little annoyed, go out and wander around, after all, my companion is still in the second dimension world, where the demons are still there, I’m afraid they…”

Chen Mu sighed and did not continue.

The old man wore a black robe, and his walking stick was placed on the stone platform beside him. It seemed that he had been here for a long time.

He motioned to Chen Mu to sit opposite, and said in a cold tone: “It’s a misfortune, and it’s useless to worry about it.”

Chen Mu frowned and sat on the opposite stone platform.

The evening breeze is like a girl’s hand gently blowing, giving people a cool, rustling rustle with the dead leaves.

The old man’s eyes always fell on the dead leaves on the ground, and his expression was stiff and cold.

After the two were silent, Chen Mu took the initiative to speak, “Where are your son and daughter-in-law?”

“It’s all dead.”

The old man said lightly.

Chen Mu wanted to continue to ask, but after thinking about it, he suffocated the question he had almost blurted out again.

After another brief silence, the old man took the initiative to ask: “What do you think a person wants most? Money? Beautiful women? Fame and fortune? Status?”

Chen Mu thought for a long time and said, “I will live forever.”

The turbid eyes of the old man burst into light, and then dimmed again: “Yes, immortality is what people want most, otherwise, why would there be so many cultivators? Isn’t it just hope that one day I can cultivate immortality? Yes? With longevity, you can slowly gain countless money, gain status and fame, and gain countless beauties…”

Chen Mu didn’t understand why the old man told him this, but he didn’t dare to interrupt and listened quietly.

After all, this old man is still very grumpy.

Maybe in the next second he will pick up the crutches and knock on his head and ask: Is this melon ripe?

After the old man had finished speaking, Chen Mu said, “Unfortunately, this world is not immortal. The cultivators have worked so hard to cultivate, and they just hope to extend their own lifespan and make themselves stronger.”

The old man’s mouth provoked a small arc of sarcasm, and shook his head: “The road is step by step, and someone has to try it.”

Chen Mu reached out to touch a leaf on his knee, and suddenly changed the subject: “You wanted to resist the Goddess Wuma, and you succeeded for a while. I want to know what method you used to defeat the Goddess Wuma.”

The old man tilted his head slightly and stared at Chen Mu with a strange and complicated look.

Just when he was about to speak, a slender figure came over, rubbing his sleepy eyes and wondering: “Why haven’t you slept yet.”

The refreshing coolness made Yaya sober.

She was busy between the two, her lovely apricot eyes staring at the old man dissatisfiedly: “Grandpa, are you looking for trouble with Young Master Chen again!”

As she said, she was like a little tigress with her hands on her hips: “I will stay here today to see how you make trouble.”

“Women’s college won’t stay in.”The old man shook his head and sighed.

Yaya’s face blushed, she glanced at Chen Mu secretly, pretending to be indifferent and concerned: “Is Grandpa training you on purpose.”

Chen Mu looked at the girl in front of him.

The girl was wearing only a thin coat outside her undershirt, and her embroidered bellyband lined her with a high waist, like a fairy under the moon.

Especially with the beautiful spirit of the mountain village, it has a special charm.

The girl didn’t see Chen Mu’s reply, but Xing’s eyes looked at her, but she saw the man looking at her like a prey, her skin suddenly seemed to have fine goose bumps, and it was stained with seductive redness.

“You… what do you see me doing?” the girl groaned.

Chen Mu shrugged and said: “I remember when I saw you for the first time, your grandfather mistakenly thought that I was someone from Young Master Du and wanted to molest you. Which Young Master Du was it?”

Hearing this, Yaya couldn’t help but pursed her mouth, and sat beside the man and said angrily: “It’s a relative of Master Du. I used to ran into it when I was gathering medicine on the mountain, and then the apprentice entangled it again and again. , But I haven’t been here since, it’s weird.”

“Then do you think I am a disciple?”

Chen Mu asked.

Yaya shook her little head again and again: “No.”

“Why not.”

“Because…because you look good.”

“…”

Chen Mu sighed, and as expected, this is a world of faces after all.

He patted the girl’s Xiangjian: “Go back to sleep. If the passage can be repaired tomorrow, I will leave. Maybe in the future, it will be difficult to meet again.”

“Oh.”

The girl looked sad and nodded gently.

Just when the man turned to leave, Yaya subconsciously grabbed the man’s hand: “Can you take me out of here.”

Feeling the softness of the woman’s small hands, Chen Mu looked at the girl Shui Ling’s big eyes and asked, “Why do you want to leave here? Besides, you have gu worms on your body. You can’t live if you leave here.”

“I’m not afraid!”

The girl shook her head vigorously, her eyes covered with water vapor. “Although I don’t understand what happened, and I don’t understand what you and Master Miko said. But I know that I may be trapped here forever like other villagers. I want to go to the outside world to see, you help Can you help me?”

Seeing Chen Mu’s silence, Yaya suddenly bit her lip and said, “Master Chen, I know there is a place, maybe you want to see it.”

“Oh? Where?” Chen Mu raised his eyebrows.

“Wait a minute.”

Yaya suddenly ran into the own room.

After a while, she changed her clothes and came out, grabbed Chen Mu’s hand and said, “You come with me.”

——

This is a village shrouded in thick fog, with a faint smell of burnt wood floating in the air, and it seems to have experienced a fire.

Meng Yanqing has been searching in this village for a whole day, but she has never found a clue to her daughter.

The night three days ago, she had a dream.

Dreaming of own daughter Xiao Xuan’er crying for her to rescue.

The dream is so real, even after waking up, she can still feel the despair of her daughter’s environment, like a knife pierced in her heart.

Meng Yanqing couldn’t wait for Chen Mu, she wanted to find her daughter by herself.

Although she understands that this is dangerous, as a mother, she can no longer wait to spend every second.

So she left a note and came to Wuchen Village resolutely.

But the moment she stepped into the village, the surrounding scenes all changed. The village still existed, but it was shrouded in fog.

But because it was daytime, it was barely recognizable.

She searched every room carefully, but still couldn’t find Xiao Xuan’er, and her heart was gradually trapped by despair.

“Dang——Dang——”

The familiar bell rang again, this is the third time.

As the dusk descended gradually, the surrounding dense fog seemed to become thinner, but the smell of burning in the air became more intense.

“Little Xuan’er!”

From the beginning of the whispering to the final screaming, the woman’s throat was burning like a fire, and it hurts fiercely.

But she still shouted persistently, trying to get a trace of her daughter’s response.

But this time, her call was answered.

In the room on the right, there was a sudden noise, as if a stool was accidentally overturned.

Meng Yanqing was startled, and subconsciously shouted, “Xiao Xuan’er?”

But there was no sound in the room, quietly.

Meng Yanqing hesitated, walked towards the house step by step boldly, and then gently opened the wooden door…

The screeching sound of opening the door was particularly clear in the silent faint.

The room was pitch black, and I couldn’t see my fingers.

Meng Yanqing took out the lighting beads that Chen Mu gave her, and stepped over the threshold with her jade feet.

Under the faint dim light, the room was shining green, and the woman soon saw a stool lying horizontally on the ground.

Judging from the traces on the ground, the stool was indeed overturned.

But Meng Yanqing looked around for a while, but didn’t find any figures.

Could it be that a mouse or a cat or dog accidentally overturned the stool? But when she checked during the day, she didn’t find any animals.

When she was puzzled, she suddenly saw a shadow in the corner.

When I came closer, it was a cellar.

The planks pressed against the mouth of the cellar have also been lifted.

She explored the room during the day and found no cellar. Maybe it was careless at the time, but the wooden board was definitely not opened.

Hesitated again and again, for the sake of her daughter, Meng Yanqing slowly climbed down the ladder of the cellar.

About seven or eight meters deep, Meng Yanqing’s embroidered shoe soft sole wrapped around the jade foot touched the ground.

The inside of the cellar was cold and humid, with a fishy smell.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Suddenly, a dull voice sounded in the cellar.

Meng Yanqing hurriedly picked up the lighting beads and found that there was another deep passage in front of him, and the other end of the corridor was emitting a faint light.

Someone inside! ?

Meng Yanqing’s heart was embarrassed, Silver Fang bit her secretly, and Lianbu walked slowly towards the passage.

Walking past the passage, inside is a cellar of about three square meters, with a wooden frame next to it, and some potatoes and carrots piled on the wooden frame.

Meng Yanqing tiptoedly turned the wooden frame and saw a person squatting in the corner of the cellar inside.

It seems to be a child.

But when you look closely, he is an extremely thin man.

The man turned his back to her, holding a small hammer in his hand, squatting in the corner and smashing it hard.

It seemed that the nail was hitting the board.

The man wore a slightly dirty suit, which was similar to what he wore when working in the field. There was a thin layer of sweat on the back of his neck…

Is it someone from the village?

Meng Yanqing frowned slightly, and remembered what Chen Mu had said that all the people in Wuchen Village were burned by a fire, and it was impossible to show up. The powder back was cold again, and she didn’t know what to do for a while.

The man didn’t seem to notice that there was a woman behind him, and he still smashed the nail hard.

Meng Yanqing, who had been struggling for a long time, flashed through the torture of her daughter in her dream, and finally suppressed her inner fear and decided to ask questions.

She held the Fu Zhuan sent by Yun Zhiyue in her hand to prevent any accidents.

“Please–”

When the word ‘please’ of ‘Excuse me’ was about to come out of her lips, Meng Yanqing, who walked behind the man, suddenly covered her own mouth, her eyes full of shock and fear.

Falling from her sight, I saw the man holding the hammer high in his right hand, while the nail in his left hand was placed on Own’s feet, smashing hard!

The nail penetrated the man’s foot, and the latter pulled it out and smashed it down again.

Over and over again, over and over again…

Meng Yanqing’s body trembled and quietly retreated a step. As a result, her shoulder accidentally touched the wooden frame.

With a light sway, several potatoes on the edge of the wooden frame seemed to roll down, and Meng Yanqing quickly blocked it with his hands to avoid being alarmed.

The air seemed to be freezing at this moment.

She glanced at the man subconsciously, and saw that the latter was still chiseling with the hammer, and then she was relieved and carefully laid the potatoes flat.

As soon as I walked through the wooden frame, with a ‘pop’, a potato at the corner of the wooden frame rolled down…

Rolled to the feet of the man.

The air was silent for a moment.

The man stopped his hammering action, looked down at the potatoes under his feet, and then slowly turned his head to look over…
