Chapter 23 Lost in the wind and sand 4

"Wow ah ah ah!!!!"

Xie pity withdrew his hand and was speechless for a while.

He found that whenever he saw or touched something in the dark, faced with such a terrifying scene, he often didn't say a word at all, and the other party had already yelled first.

The shrubs and grasses in this garden are so high and dense, just now someone sneaked into the grass and was touched by Xie Lian's calf. The leg quickly pulled away, the grass in front of him rustled, and one person shouted: "Don't hit, don't hit, it's me, this brother!"

Thanks for taking a closer look, this is really unexpected, the person who called "don't hit, don't hit" was actually born with the thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was relieved to see him recognize him. However, after seeing that it was him, Xie Lian did not breathe a sigh of relief, but became more vigilant, raised his arm to stop him, and said, "Aren't you staying in place with the others to take care of the injured? Why are you here? Are you really born?" In this case, it's more like something else pretending to be fake.

Tian Tian hurriedly said: "It's me! It's really me, not only I'm here, but also three uncles with me! They're inside, don't believe me!" Three people ran out of the hall, and they were just a few of the group of businessmen just now. When they saw Xie Lian, they were all startled, and then looked embarrassed. Xie pity stood up, patted the hem of the white clothes, and said, "What's the matter with you?"

When he asked this question, the merchants were all embarrassed and silent. After a long while, Tian Tian said: "...Not long after you guys left, Uncle Zheng's poison attacked again. He was so bad, we... don't know when you will come back, worried that you won't be able to find it, or come back. It's too late. Brother Ah Zhao said that we can find Banyueguo by walking down that road, so we thought that if there were more people, we might find it faster, so we came here..."

Having said that, I still regret it. Afraid of thanking them that they found Shanyuecao and took Ah Zhao and slipped away by themselves, but they were still worried, so they caught up. And Xie Lian can fully imagine that if Fuyao can't persuade them, he might just be too lazy to stop it. It can be seen from the last time with Junshan that for those who insist on going their own way and don't listen to advice and go to death, Fuyao didn't bother to save it at all. Xie Lian can understand them, but also very helpless, rubbed his eyebrows and said: "You guys are too bold. It's not that you don't know what might be in this city, what might happen, so you dare to come here?"

Thinking about it, I knew that I didn't trust them. I felt a little guilty. I just lay down in the grass and didn't dare to speak. I probably felt embarrassed.

There is no way, the matter of human life, how long the heart is is human nature. And being willing to take medicinal herbs for others to commit danger is also considered to be affectionate. Xie Lian didn't say much, and sighed: "You didn't encounter anything on your way into this ancient city. This is really your luck. Then again, how did you know that you were going to the palace to find Shanyuecao?"

Tiansheng scratched his head and said, "We don't know where to look. But isn't the story told by the red-clothed brother about the good moon grass that the queen plucked? The queen can't just leave the palace, so I thought. , can you come to the palace to try your luck?"

Xie Lian smiled, thinking that the reason was with him. At this moment, Saburo on the side said: "I found it."

He looked back and saw Saburo walking over with those two slender legs. What he was holding in his hand was a handful of green leaves with a little root.

The leaves are about the size of a baby's palm, the roots are extremely thin, peach-shaped, and the leaves have a pointed tail. Somehow, Xie Lian felt that there was no need to confirm with Ah Zhao, this must be the legendary Good Moon Grass. Before he could say anything, Saburo had already caught his injured hand.

The hand was stung, and it was terribly swollen. After Saburo took drugs for him, although the toxin was not clear, the swelling disappeared a lot. At this moment, Saburo was holding his injured hand in one hand, and the other hand was holding the good moon grass. He folded his five fingers together, but when he opened it again, the leaf was broken into a pile of green powder.

He smeared the pile of green powder on the back of Xie Lian's hand, and felt the gentle coolness slowly spread from the wound. Xie Lian said: "Sanlang, thank you very much."

Saburo did not answer. After applying the herbs to him, he put down his hand. With his attitude and the atmosphere between the two, Xie Lian always felt that something was a little weird, but he didn't know how to ask, and no matter how he asked, he didn't feel right. Others don't care about these at all, and they don't understand the subtleties. They are born eagerly: "Brother, is this herb useful? Is this herb right?"

Xie Lian came back to his senses and said, "It's much better, it should be right."

Hearing this, the others were very excited and said, "Quick, look for it again." After a while, Ah Zhao also held up a handful of green leaves and said, "I found it here too."

The leaves of the good moon grass in his hand are much larger than the poor little piece that Saburo just found. When everyone saw that the shape and features were correct, they all rushed over, and they were all pleasantly surprised: "There is a big piece here. Ah!" "A lot!" "Quickly pick more." "Can I sell it when I pick it back?"

They were busy picking herbs, thank you for turning around, looking at the back of your hand, thinking for a moment, and saying to Saburo: "The place they were looking for, you seem to have found it just now, didn't you find it at the time?"

He was just out of words. After speaking, I also felt that this sentence was quite boring. Saburo shook his head and said, "Don't use the grass there."

Thanks for the pity: "Why?"

Who knows, before Saburo could tell the reason, he heard a scream: "Go away!"

Everyone was stunned for a while, and their movements were stagnant, and they said: "Who is calling?" "I don't have it!" "It's not me..."

At this time, I heard that voice again sternly: "Go away, you stepped on me..."

This time, everyone noticed that this voice came from their feet!

In an instant, the few people gathered in that piece of picking good moon grass dispersed. Xie pity has long been used to going up at this time. If others retreat, he will go up. So, he walked to the place where the scream came, stretched out his hand, and slowly pushed away the dense grass. At this time, the breathing of several people on the spot was stagnant.

I saw a man's face buried under the grass and in the soil.

In this piece of land, there was a big living person buried under the soil, with only one face exposed!

This picture is really very strange, and several businessmen immediately hugged each other and shouted in fright. Xie Lian comforted him very skillfully: "Don't panic. Everyone calm down. It's just a face. It's no big deal. Who doesn't have a face yet?"

The face laughed and said, "Scared you? Alas... I often scare myself too."

Xie Lian simply comforted the others, squatted down, and carefully looked at the face buried in the ground.

This is a man's face, flat when not smiling, and many wrinkles when smiling. I can't tell if it is old or young, nor can it be said that it is ugly or beautiful. After looking at it for a long time, he couldn't see what it was, so he asked directly, "Who are you?"

The buried face said, "Who are you?"

Thanks for the pity: "The caravan passing by."

The soil buried face sighed and said, "Alas. A passing caravan. I used to be a passing caravan. However, that was fifty or sixty years ago."

When he said that, the picture became even more bizarre.

This person has been buried in the land of this abandoned ancient city for fifty or sixty years. Is that still a person?

A businessman asked tremblingly, "Then...then your old man...why did you come here...ah?"

Tubu face coughed a few times, and said with a wrinkled face: "I... I was caught by Banyue soldiers. I accidentally entered the city and was caught by them. They buried me in the soil and made me become The fertilizer for these good moon grasses..."

It turns out that these good moon grasses are grown with living people as fertilizer, no wonder they are so fat!

Several businessmen hurriedly threw the large amount of good moon grass in their hands to the ground, feeling that they were no different from grabbing a corpse just now. Xie Lian couldn't help but look down at the back of his hand, only to listen to Saburo: "That piece is fine."

Thanks for thinking about it, and reacted. It's no wonder that Saburo had already found this piece of land, but he went to another piece of land to search for a very thin piece of good moon grass. I'm afraid he saw this buried surface just now, but he just ignored it, turned his head and looked for it elsewhere, until he found a clean herb in a remote place that was not grown with human fertilizer, and then gave it to him. He painted.

Thanks for the pity: "Thank you very much."

Saburo shook his head, still with a calm face.

Since he was stung by a scorpion-tailed snake before entering Banyue Ancient City, he has always had this attitude. When the two were together a few days ago, he had been shouting in front of and behind his brother, but now he doesn't shout. Moreover, although the young man seemed to be very resistant to contact with him when the two met on the first day, but after getting along for a few days, it seemed that there was no such thing. But now, in addition to taking drugs and medicine for him just now, Saburo seems to be trying his best to avoid physical contact with him. It really makes Xie Lian very strange and a little unaccustomed to it.

At this time, the buried face spoke again: "I haven't seen a living person for many years, you...you all stand over and let me take a good look, okay?"

Everyone looked at each other, unanimously feeling that it would be better not to do as he said. After a long while, seeing no response, the burial muttered, "Why, don't you want to? Alas... it's a pity..."

Xie Lian turned his head and said, "What a pity?"

The earth buried the face and said: "Since you came in, I have been very concerned about one thing, and I have always wanted to confirm it with my own eyes, so I want you all to stand over and show me. Because I want to place one by one, put You all look carefully."

Thanks for the pity: "What's the matter?"

The soil buried the face and said: "Among you, there is a person... I met fifty or sixty years ago."

As soon as this statement came out, a sudden burst of fine hair stood up on everyone's back.

All ordinary people here cannot be over fifty years old. If there is one person in this group of people who have seen this buried face fifty or sixty years ago, then this person must not be a person.

Xie Lian's eyes swept across everyone's face, starting from Ah Zhao, to the end of the birth, slightly startled, fearful, uncertain, and dumbfounded. Everyone's reaction was very reasonable. If it must be said that anyone's reaction is not in line with common sense, it is only Saburo who is completely unresponsive. However, for this teenager, probably no reaction is a normal reaction.

Xie Lian glanced at Saburo who said nothing, turned around and said, "Who is this person you are talking about?"

The burial said, "You... you come closer, and I'll tell you."

If Xie Lian believed him 80% of the time when the words just came out for the first time, then after this sentence, Xie Lian's trust in what it said was only 50%. How can know that this monster is not trying to coax people to approach, and then suddenly attack?

Of course Xie Lian would not listen to him, got up and retreated.The buried face said, "You really don't want to know who that person is? He will kill all of you."
