Chapter 443 The water is poisonous
Feng Yang and Yun Lu exchanged a glance, then got up and followed. As for the two kids in the small tent, they were guarded by a group of monkeys, making them safer than if they were guarded by monkeys themselves.
"Don't go any further," Yunyi warned without turning around.
The two of them quickly stopped in their tracks.
Yunyi looked at the river water glowing with a pale green light in the night, and at the souls floating on its surface. She raised her hand and pointed into the void: "Little Fish."
Soon, a gate of the Five Elements appeared in the night sky, and fish gills jumped out from it: "Boss Ghost, you finally remembered me."
"Because I need you now."
"Hehe." Little Fish laughed happily, doing two somersaults in the air. "Boss Ghost, just tell me what you need me to do."
"Look at all those creatures swimming on the river, aren't they all under your jurisdiction? Why haven't they been reincarnated?"
The little fish glanced at the souls of fish and shrimp floating on the river surface and flicked its tail: "They all died unjustly and cannot enter the cycle of reincarnation." It paused for a moment, "In other words, they should have been eaten normally, but they were poisoned to death. Therefore, they also have resentment and can only float here."
"Although I can communicate with spirits, I don't understand shrimp language, so I'd like you to help me find out when the river started having problems."
"No problem, I'll ask right away." Little Fish made an OK sign, then turned to look at the river.
The souls of those small fish and shrimp instantly gathered together, and then strangely condensed into a large fish. After swishing its tail, it came to Yunyi and said, "Greetings, Your Highness the Princess."
Yunyi glanced at the fish gills, gave her an approving smile, and then nodded: "Tell me about the situation."
“There was no problem with the river before, and everyone in the village was fine. But last year during the Spring Festival, the village chief’s son, Shi Hulu, fell into the river and fell into a coma. After he woke up, he poisoned the river and set up a magic array.”
"A stone gourd? It's suddenly become so powerful?" Yun Yi frowned. If she wasn't mistaken, it must have transmigrated or been possessed by someone. Of course, it was also possible that the system had approached it. In any case, it was definitely not the original person.
“We were perfectly fine in the river, but then we all died.” The big fish didn’t answer Yunyi’s question, nor could it.
"The river water is flowing, yet it retains its toxicity. The poison must have been put in the pool, right?"
"The Princess is so clever." The giant fish swayed its ethereal tail. "She's right here in the pool."
Yunyi glanced at the fish gills.
"I'm going right now." Fish Gills darted away.
Just as Yun Yi was about to say something, another ghostly figure suddenly squeezed out of the ghost gate and rushed directly in front of Yun Yi: "Ghost Boss, why didn't you come looking for me?"
"Why would I want to talk to you?" Yunyi rolled her eyes as she looked at the alluring wasp.
"This river is poisonous and has killed quite a few birds." Huang Tian'er said, waving her hand. Several bird spirits flew over and began to chirp.
They said roughly the same thing, but the birds knew a little more than the fish and shrimp.
Stone Gourd often leaves the village to meet people in the woods. The people are all black, so their faces are not visible. Moreover, the birds don't know anything about it, so naturally there is no question of it following them.
Yunyi nodded. That's right. This means that the stone gourd was known to someone, but who it was remains to be verified.
Huang Tian'er returned quickly: "Boss, there's a wooden box with holes at the junction of the pool and the river, but I'm a ghost, so I can't move it."
Yunyi nodded, then turned and beckoned to Fengyang: "Come with me, A-Lu, you stay here and guard this place."
Feng Yang hurriedly followed.
The pool is fed by mountain springs. It doesn't look very big from the top of the mountain, but once you get close, it's quite large, about the size of a standard basketball court.
(Data provided by Baidu: FIBA's area is 420 square meters, and NBA's area is 436.626 square meters.)
That person was quite clever; by placing the poison box in this location, it wouldn't pollute the pond or hinder the villagers' access to drinking and water.
After Feng Yang lifted the box up, he discovered that the box was also cleverly designed. There were holes on both sides, through which water entered the box, carrying the poison out from the other side and into the river. As long as the poison in the wooden box was kept, the river water would always be poisonous.
"Young Miss, what kind of poison is this?" Feng Yang asked curiously. He had seen many poisons before. After all, as a bodyguard, protecting his master was his top duty, so he naturally needed to know all sorts of things.
“This…” Yunyi looked at the fist-sized, dough-like thing in the box, picked up a wooden stick and poked it, and some small things immediately came out of the dough.
"The thing inside is actually alive?" Feng Yang exclaimed in surprise.
“Hmm.” Yunyi’s gaze turned cold. “Strictly speaking, this should be called Gu poison.” The river water is full of Gu poison.
“You mean…” Feng Yang’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Yunyi took a deep breath: "It seems that the people behind this village are not simple."
It's even possible that the entire village has been taken into custody. Does that mean Gu Chengyun's identity has been discovered?
I feel like there are more and more things to deal with, and I'm becoming more and more confused. It's as if an invisible hand is manipulating everything, and it all seems to be related to me.
Yunyi's intuition was that it was related to her, not the original Fang Yunyi.
Clearly, her arrival in this era wasn't as Sixteen claimed, that she randomly sent herself here because the main system was hacked. It feels like it was premeditated.
He then curled the corners of his mouth into a smile. Although he was becoming more and more confused, it also seemed to be getting more and more interesting.
She's the kind of person who's not afraid of trouble. If someone dares to cause trouble behind your back, unless they stay hidden forever, she'll definitely beat them to a pulp if she catches them one day.
It's a pity that that bastard Sixteen isn't here right now, otherwise... I would definitely short-circuit her to vent my anger.
At this moment, Sixteen, who was floating next to Chen Rui, shivered inexplicably and almost short-circuited herself. She wondered what was going on. She hadn't been by the boss's side these days, so why did it feel like the boss had found out that she had done something wrong?
The hair is creepy.
He couldn't help but glance at Chen Rui, who was still unconscious, and sighed. This girl was quite tenacious; her soul was almost transparent, but it still hadn't completely left her body.
The Book of Life and Death indicated that she would not live past the age of marriage.
There are less than twenty days left before we can get back to being proactive.
The girl's birthday is June 12th, and the eldest brother's is June 16th, which is only four days earlier than the eldest brother's. She was thinking about turning into a human as soon as possible so that she could prepare a coming-of-age ceremony for the eldest brother.
