Chapter 211: Leaving, is it over?
After the truth came to light, Yan Cisheng learned from Yan Shiliu that he was able to restore his innocence thanks to those talented outsiders who had been secretly investigating the truth of the curse.
Yan Cisheng was deeply moved when he heard this. He wanted to catch some chickens and ducks to express his gratitude, but he suddenly remembered his old mother at home, who was still living in his second sister's house. Now that the truth was out, he should go and bring his mother back as soon as possible and fulfill his unfulfilled filial duty.
So the visit to express gratitude had to be put off for a while. He met each of them one by one, performed a few street salutes, and then left in a hurry.
Yan Shiliu and his companions looked at his back, and the Gu girl sighed, "He is a filial son."
"It's a pity that such a tragedy happened to him. I heard from the villagers that his father, Yan Laifu, used to dote on him. It's hard to imagine how he would collapse when he found out that he was the one who ate his father alive."
The magician shook his head and sighed.
The swordsman nodded, "So, Yan Nanzhe is the one who deserves to die."
Upon hearing this, the Gu girl suddenly thought of something and said, "If he was infected with the evil food Gu and needs to abstain from food to survive, do you think his father, Yan Laifu, would have given him food voluntarily?"
The witch said.
The scene of that day suddenly appeared in the minds of several people.
Yan Ci Sheng was extremely hungry and searched for any food in the kitchen. In order to save his son, his old father volunteered to feed him.
If that's the case.
This is the greatest sorrow in the world.
The curse has come to an end.
The three "demons" in Yanjia Village were all eliminated, and the father-eating curse was man-made. Yan Shiliu paid the final reward, and everyone rested for a few days before leaving.
After the three evils on the northern road were all killed, they could continue along the northern road. With the speed of several people, it would only take about half a month to connect with the outside world.
If you head south, the road will be much more difficult and will take nearly a month, which is a dead end for ordinary people. But the good thing is that after passing through the dangerous mountains and rivers, you will directly arrive at a big city.
Several people discussed the route, whether to go south or north, each has its own advantages. In the end, they chose the northern route, thinking that Yanjia Village was really pitiful, trapped in such a mountain range. Since they were going out anyway, they might as well help them and try this route.
The day before departure.
Li Changxiao was strolling in the village.
I saw people in white clothes beating drums and gongs in the distance.
Yan Cisheng walked away crying.
When Li Changxiao asked others, he found out that his old mother had caught a cold due to the continuous shock and had died.
The funeral ceremony is being held now.
As the funeral procession slowly marched through the village, many people looked at Yan Cisheng with pity.
"Old people always say that the amount of blessings a person can enjoy is fixed when he is born. When Yan Ci was young, he was doted on, so he used up all his blessings in advance."
"That's right. If it were me, I can't even imagine how devastated I would be. Losing my father and mother... Alas."
Neighbors murmured quietly.
……
This day.
Several people planned to leave.
Yan Cisheng, who didn't know where he got the news from, ran over in a hurry while still wearing mourning clothes to thank them.
He bowed and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry. My mother... Alas, I was unable to hold a banquet to thank her. I was not polite enough. I feel guilty, but..."
"No problem." The thin old Taoist priest said calmly, "It's good that you have the intention. We will go."
talking.
Several people bowed and left along the north road.
The Yanjia Village behind me was gradually covered by thick fog.
Between these mountains.
Every morning, there is a thin mist, which is very cool and the air is fresh. If you take a deep breath, it seems that you can absorb the rich vitality into your body.
The flatness of the north road is relative. In fact, it is still very difficult to walk on it, but it is still passable.
Yan Shiliu wanted to lead the way for the others, so he followed along.
This journey was a little more boring than the one we came here. There were no turbulent rivers, steep mountains, bandit kings, or strange beasts.
The road was long, mostly covered by dense forests. After much difficulty, they came across a clear river, and they were immediately filled with joy. After all, they were just jianghu people with special skills, not the real immortals who roamed the world freely. Even though their abilities far exceeded those of ordinary mortals, they still had many inconveniences.
For example, washing, going to the toilet and other things are inevitable.
It was fine when we were in Yanjia Village. About three miles to the left of Yan Shiliu’s gate, there was a small pond. The pond was full of running water with a moderate temperature, which was very convenient for washing.
But the journey back to the city was not so easy. Everyone carried two water bags and they would only drink a sip when they were extremely thirsty, and they did not dare to abuse them.
The food is better. There are many wild animals in the mountains and forests, such as wild rabbits, mountain snakes, deer... Occasionally you can see one or two. If you are greedy and don't mind the trouble, you can kill one and roast it.
Just washing was really inconvenient. The humidity in the mountains was heavy and the body felt sticky and uncomfortable. Several male martial artists could still bear it, but Gu Nu and Cai Wei felt a little upset.
So every time they saw a river, they would stop for a night.
The two girls jumped into the river to wash, looking so happy. Although the two girls were not easy to mess with, their looks and figures were really good. Gu Nu was petite and cute, while Cai Wei was aloof and cold.
On the contrary, after traveling for several days in this dangerous mountain, no matter how lonely and cold it was, it couldn't get cold anymore. Cai Wei's short white boots were covered with mud, and her silk dress was no longer as neat as when she came.
She remembered that before leaving, she prepared four sets of clothes for changing, all of which were expensive dresses and bellybands... Later, two sets were damaged and abandoned halfway.
After the two girls finished washing, they looked like lotus flowers emerging from clear water. After changing into new clothes, they felt a lot lighter. Although they had received many demon-hunting orders and had been to remote places before, they had never been to a place as remote as Yanjia Village, so they were not fully prepared.
The magic refiner and the swordsman also wanted to wash up, while the skinny old Taoist priest and Li Changxiao sat aside and chatted.
Li Changxiao learned that the skinny old Taoist was an old Taoist priest in a Taoist temple. This skill was not passed down by the Taoist temple, but he learned it from a mysterious person when he was young.
at night.
Several people put their changed clothes on the fire rack to dry so that they could travel tomorrow. What made the only two women in the scene a little embarrassed was that if they wanted to dry their underwear such as bellybands, shoes and socks as quickly as possible in the mountains and forests, they had to put them on the fire to dry.
This was equivalent to making it public. The two of them blushed slightly, but did not say much. After all, they were just wandering around the world and were not unmarried young ladies.
The magician took the opportunity to fight back: "Gu girl, you may have athlete's foot. Your shoes and socks are really smelly. They've turned yellow."
Under normal circumstances, the Gu girl would definitely fight back, but in this case she could not refute it.
Seeing that this trick was effective, the magician continued to tease, starting from the style of the bellyband and then to other things... Cai Wei turned her head away. She was an expert in swordsmanship and few people dared not tease her, but she couldn't help feeling shy when they listened to her. If possible, she would never show such private clothes here.
Dinner was a simple piece of bread and a piece of dried meat.
After eating and drinking, they started chatting again.
Someone brought the topic back to Yanjia Village.
The magician said: "That Yan Nanzhe is such a loser, stupid and evil."
The swordsman nodded and suddenly said, "You said... Is it possible that Yan Nanzhe is just a scapegoat?"
The thin old Taoist shook his head, "What do you mean?"
The swordsman said: "First of all: Yan Nanzhe's escape is illogical."
"Don't you think it's a bit too hasty? It seems like something is urging him to escape. He must leave tonight."
"I think there may be someone behind the scenes instigating this."
The magician patted the swordsman on the shoulder and said, "Brother, stop imagining things. Yan Nanzhe was definitely the one who put the poison on me. Look at his reaction. He almost has the word 'guilty' written on his face."
Hear the words.
Everyone nodded, the magician was right.
