In the mountains and wilderness of the southwest, the living conditions are harsh, and the poisonous miasma is particularly fierce. There are also two types of poisonous miasma in the mountains. The first type is "Ming", which can be traced. It rises in a certain valley at a certain period of time. As long as you touch it,
Once you understand the pattern, if you don't get close to it when it breaks out, there won't be much harm; the second kind of 'dark' comes and goes without a trace, and it breaks out without any warning. Sometimes it comes with the wind, and sometimes it is swept by heavy rain.
It is impossible to guard against it. If this kind of "dark" miasma appeared in the barbarian camp, it would range from a serious illness to a serious illness, or all the people would be killed. The horror is self-evident.
Seven hundred years ago, the twelve great wizards in the Shanxi barbarians saw that the dark miasma was raging and many of their tribesmen were suffering from it. They joined forces and worked hard together, and finally found a way to prevent the poisonous miasma. While they were still alive, they
He began to take all kinds of strange medicinal materials. Under the erosion of the medicinal power, his body quickly withered. A few years later, on the same day, the twelve mountain stream witches passed away at the same time. The matter is not over yet, the younger generations of the same clan still have to follow their instructions.
The remaining method is to continue to use countless secret medicines to refine their corpses.
Until the end, the corpses of the twelve witches were successfully refined and would never rot. And most importantly, the medicinal power accumulated in their bodies conflicted with and dissolved with the corpse poison after death, creating new medicinal power... To put it bluntly,
Now, twelve sorcerers have refined their bodies into a magical medicine that can defend against the 'dark miasma'.
The usage of these twelve "wonder medicines" is also very strange. They cannot be eaten or smelled, but "taken".
Every three days, a corpse driver leads a wizard corpse around the gathering place of Shanxi Barbarians. In a cycle of thirty-six days, twelve corpses each circle the camp.
For one week, the medicinal power of the twelve "wonder medicines" will remain in the soil. No matter what kind of dark miasma strikes, there must be a corresponding medicinal power that can restrain it.
These great witches brought blessings to the people of the tribe and were revered by the descendants of the Shanxi Barbarians as the "Zun Zun". It was also because of the twelve corpses that the Shanxi Barbarians gathered together from a pile of scattered sand and became much stronger than before.
What the monk murderer wants to steal is these twelve corpses.
However, the golden cuff barbarian girl didn't know much about the inside story. She only knew that the corpse exorcist who was responsible for taking care of the 'Zun Zun' was bribed by an outsider. One night not long ago, he fled en masse with the corpses. After Shanxi Man noticed it,
Start chasing immediately.
This matter was so serious to the Shanxi barbarians that the chief did not care about his pregnancy and only wanted to recover the corpse. However, it was difficult to confirm the traitor's escape route, so the sisters separated and pursued them separately.
It is not difficult to guess what happened next. The Yinjia Inn was the delivery place agreed in advance between the traitorous corpse exorcist and the monk's 'buyer'. After the monk 'received' the goods, he did not leave anyone alive and killed all the corpse exorcists in the Yinjia Inn.
Inside.
As for the origin of these murderous monks and what they wanted the twelve corpses for, the Golden Cuff Barbarian Girl didn't know. After hearing this, Song Yang didn't say anything, but looked at Ren Xiaoqian with slight surprise, and the latter glared.
came back: "What are you looking at? Is something wrong?"
Song Yang's brows furrowed slightly: "You actually got it right."
"What did I say?" Ren Xiaoqian was still confused. After a moment, he suddenly realized what he said when he was in the Yin family inn. He laughed loudly and said: "How do you like it? Do you accept it or not? Let Shenqiao accept it.
It has been settled long ago, there is internal strife among the barbarians!" The whole case is the conspiracy of the mysterious monk against the twelve corpses of Shanxi barbarians, but the corpse exorcist was bribed by an outsider and rebelled against the clan. This part is indeed the "internal strife among the barbarians".
He was actually right. Song Yang was really surprised. At first he thought it was nothing, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was a bit of a monster. But when he asked why Ren Xiaoqian was a "foreseeer," she replied.
Qi Guanzi shook his head and didn't answer.
Next, the barbarian girl informed Song Yang that their 'companion' who had been detained in the Yin family inn had been escorted back to his lair in the mountains by his fellow tribesmen. She would personally send her back when she returned. In addition, she also said emphatically: "She has no hair."
No harm.”
Song Yang nodded and didn't say anything at the time. Later, he found an opportunity to take advantage of Ren Xiaozai's absence and said to the barbarian girl: "It's enough to kill her. There's no need to send her back. Also, before you kill her, please help me ask one thing."
Confession: After her, who will come to us again."
Only then did the barbarian girl realize that the person she was holding was not Song Yang's companion at all, but his enemy. She smiled bitterly and nodded in agreement: "I will send someone to deliver the confession. Do you live in Yanziping?"
Song Yang shook his head: "No need to send a message, maybe I will go into the mountain to find you, just tell me then." It happened that at this time, Ren Xiaozai, who was not far away, also turned around and asked the barbarian girl: "In the future, we
Can you go into the mountain and see the little monster... the little baby?" Finally, she stopped herself from calling out the 'little monster' in front of the big barbarian.
After all, they had been together for more than ten days, and Ren Xiaozai had a deep affection for the little monster. They were about to leave, and she couldn't bear to part with it. The barbarian girl reached out and took off the golden hoop on her head, and broke it into two pieces with a slight force.
, handed it to the two teenagers respectively, nodded and said: "You can enter the mountain at any time, distinguished guests."
The barbarian female leader raised her voice to convey the order again, and her barbarians cut down the branches and made two simple stretchers. They carefully helped Song and Ren onto them and prepared to send them back. Song Yang and Ren Xiaoping said almost in unison: "There are also those murder weapons.
We have to take it away." Although Ji Kuo is fierce and domineering, no matter how good the Han people's things are, Shanxi barbarians will never use them, let alone fight with two 'distinguished guests'.
The blades were all collected together with the large wooden box, which was carried by a special person and accompanied by two small officers.
After saying goodbye, Song Yang and Ren Xiaoping were escorted by barbarians and rushed towards Yanziping. Before leaving, a group of barbarians not far away cheered. They had dug out twelve corpses intact. Song Yang and Ren Xiaoping
He stretched his neck and looked around, only to see twelve corpses with plump faces and rosy skin. At first glance, they looked no different from living people, and they even seemed to be smiling at others.
Ren Xiaoyu had goosebumps all over his body. He muttered "evil nature" in a low voice and didn't dare to look any further...
On the way home, maybe he was rescued in the mountains, which put Song Yang in a good mood. He smiled at Ren Xiaoqiao and said, "Do you want to hear a story?"
Ren Xiaoze's eyes widened: "Is it still 'a thousand years later'? Very good, you continue."
Unexpectedly, Song Yang shook his head: "This time it's not a thousand years later, it's a matter in the town." After saying that, he looked at Ren Xiaoqian, and after asking her to nod, Song Yang said: "Seven years ago, Granny Song's grandson
He fell into a pond in the west of the town and drowned to death. All the young people in the town who knew how to swim jumped in to help recover the body. The pond was not small, and everyone's efforts were in vain. After two days, everyone withdrew. Only one person
The policeman, after being on duty every day, would run to the pond and go into the water alone to touch the body... I searched for more than ten days in a row, but in the end I still couldn't find it, so I had to give up. Hey, it was a waste of effort."
The young detective said displeasedly: "You can't say that. Although the body was not recovered in the end, my thoughts are definitely not ambiguous. Is it the policeman of this town...which one?"
"Don't be anxious, I'll tell you later." Song Yang responded to him and continued: "There is Liu Ersi in the town. He has no relatives and no connections. He has a bad mind, so he makes a living by guarding a group of sheep. The big sheep give birth to small ones.
You can't expect to get rich with sheep, but you can still make ends meet. About three years ago, he didn't know what kind of fascination he had, so he sold all the sheep, exchanged the money, and went to the big town ahead to buy a few more.
Cows. But he didn’t expect that herding cows and herding sheep are two different things. In addition, cattle from other places don’t know the local roads, so he lost a cow the next day.”
"The fool had a whim and let out another cow, hoping to rely on the cow to find another cow. Needless to say, the second cow was also lost."
"Liu Er was so stupid that he was so anxious that he couldn't say anything. The whole town went into the mountains to help him find cattle. I also went. Unfortunately, my nose was not as good as it is now, so I couldn't help.
.Three days later, everyone came back in disgrace, empty-handed. Only the policeman I just mentioned did not come out. It took another four days for him to come back. God's eyes were opened, and he actually found one.
There was only one cow, but if the catcher had given up for a day, he wouldn't even be able to find that cow, right? The second idiot was happy, but he still cried, hey, his cry sounded like a cow. This one
Er Sha is an honest man. He sold his cows and bought sheep again. He lives in the west end of the town. If you want to buy sheep, go and visit him. But he has a lizard covered in scars that lies on his shoulder all day long.
, don’t be afraid when you see it.”
"Last year, it was Liu Ersi who, for some reason, got into an argument with three strangers who were passing by. He got into a fight and was beaten so badly that he couldn't get up. The three strangers were arrested and taken to the county government.
I think they still have some modest backgrounds, and the lord doesn’t want to punish them..."
At this point, the young catcher raised his eyebrows: "If you don't follow the law, you can't make decisions for the people, so what's the use of having parents as officials!"
Song Yang shook his head: "It's not all like what you said. It's really not difficult to punish him, but if they want to take revenge, who will they find first? The most unlucky person in the future will be Liu Ersi. Mr. Zhou didn't punish him.
They just asked them to pay some medical money to settle the matter. They were beaten, but after paying the money, the matter was justified and settled. But the policeman was furious, so after the three strangers left, he took a few of his colleagues with him
, masked in black cloth, ran for dozens of miles, caught up with those three people and beat them up..." At this point, Song Yang was happy: "Do you think this is what a police officer should do?
Not many people knew about the incident, but I happened to be one. Afterwards, the policeman himself said that he chased and beat people not only to avenge the two fools, but also not to punish evil and promote good. He did not want to see his neighbor being beaten by outsiders.
"
The young catcher was very angry and itchy when he heard this. He came closer to Song Yang and said, "This catcher is very interesting. Who is he?" There was no hint of 'this person can be used as a partner' in his tone.
