Chu Xunyu and the three of them came to the dead silence of Baixiao Heights, where there was only endless silence and silence, looking at the scattered and swaying yellow lanterns on the street, Mu Yuan couldn't help but shudder a little, as if he felt that the coldness and loneliness here were not at all different from the burning desert outside, standing at the entrance and asking Chu Xunyu, "Do you want to go in?"

Chu Xunyu didn't feel right when he looked at the situation in front of him, it was as lively as a mortal temple fair back then, and there were all kinds of rivers and lakes everywhere** In the hustle and bustle, how did the news of the disease suddenly come out, and no one was running here, I couldn't help but be a little wary, and turned my head to look at a small cabin closest to the exit, if I remember correctly, this should be the gatehouse, there are eight entrances to Wuthering Heights, distributed in all directions, there is such a gatehouse, there will be people resident in it, similar to the existence of a sentry card, so I raised my legs and walked over to see the situation inside.

I can only hear the sound of gravel being trampled under my feet, and gradually come to the front, because of the light, it seems darker, the window is open, and the windowsill has a thin layer of ash, it seems that there has been no one for a few months, so Mu Yuan followed, stretched his head in and looked inside, black, I couldn't see clearly, according to the shadow of the rare table and chair, so he came to the front door, knocked lightly twice with his hand, and asked in a low voice: "Is there anyone?"

The knock on the door echoed around his body, and there was no movement for a long time, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and when he turned his head and was about to say something, he suddenly saw a pair of wrinkled eyes in front of him, and he was startled and screamed: "What is it?"

This exclamation provoked both Wangchen and Chu Xunyu to look over, only to see an old man in a dirty robe standing there quietly, with a rickety figure, covering his mouth with a towel, his facial features were not clear, there were as many wrinkles on his face as there was dirt on his clothes, no one knew how it came out, Chu Xunyu and the three of them were immediately alert, at first glance, he only had the cultivation of the Yuan Infant Stage, Chu Xunyu couldn't help asking: "Who is Your Excellency? Is it the porter?"

"Yes. The old man nodded, turned his head to look at Chu Xunyu, a pair of dim eyes seemed to be looking at them, and his voice was a little depressed, "Who are you?"

"Guests. Chu Xunyu raised the entrance token in his hand.

"Guest?" said the old man who claimed to be the porter's expression was a little surprised, "Don't you know? ”

"Is it because of illness?" Mu Yuan asked.

The old man nodded: "You know you're still coming, are you very guts?" ”

Chu Xunyu ignored his sarcasm and asked directly, "Dare to ask this fellow Daoist, where else are there activities here?"

Wuthering Heights is divided into four areas: "business, employment, medicine, and fighting", "business" refers to the place where goods are exchanged, including human trafficking, sales of stolen goods and other shady transactions; "hiring" refers to the area where people buy murder and pay the price to ask people to do things; "doctor" is to be injured by force after causing trouble outside, and as a result, because it is an unsightly deed, they can't go out to seek medical treatment, so they have to come here to find a place for ** Lang Zhong treatment, these ** Lang have superb medical skills, but most of them are not right, and they also make and sell "five stone powder" in privateFinally, there is "fighting", as the name suggests, is a place for fighting to resolve disputes, you know, most of the people who come here are ** bandits, usually lawless, these people gather together, how can there be no accidents, once there is friction, they go to a special place to compete by means.

The old man squinted his eyes and looked at Chu Xunyu, and shook his head: "It's basically gone, who dares to stay here, this kind of thing is unprecedented, God knows what else will happen." ”

"Then why are you still staying here?" Mu Yuan looked at him with some suspicion, "Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm afraid. The old man tightened the towel covering his mouth and nose, "But I'm more afraid of being outside, there are only two kinds of people left here, one is someone who has been infected with a disease, and the other is a person who, like me, is wanted outside and will be hunted down once he shows his head, so we can only stay." ”

Chu Xunyu sniffed his nose lightly, and asked, "You have medicine on this towel?"

"Yes. The old man nodded, "The people who stayed behind have asked Lang Zhong to sprinkle medicine on it, maybe it can block some diseases." ”

Through the smell, Chu Xunyu smelled that there are indeed many excellent medicines to prevent diseases, but it is estimated that it is unknown whether it can resist this poison outbreak, but it is certain that this time there is a lot of trouble, so according to the usual practice, he notified the old man: "Then we will go in." ”

The old man nodded: "Go, come and go freely, you are careful." ”

The three of them signaled, and officially walked onto the street from the old man's gaze, Chu Xunyu suddenly remembered something, and immediately turned his head and asked, "May I ask if there was death after the poisoning here...... Huh, it's not good......" Chu Xun didn't finish asking, turned his head to look, and saw that there was no one in front of him, there was nothing in the porter, and on the empty dark street, there were only three people with surprised expressions, and occasionally the underground wind blew, which made the three of them even more uncomfortable.

Mu Yuan stammered and asked, "What is it? Is this old guy a human or a ghost? Is it an enemy or a friend? How did it come out, why didn't we feel it, obviously cultivating the same as us, but how did it feel wrong?"

Chu Xunyu pulled out his long sword in his hand, and frowned: "This place is really weirdly tight, it's no longer the previous Baixiao Heights Villa, Wangchen senior, your cultivation is profound, have you ever found it?"

Wangchen shook his head: "I didn't find it, this person is so strange, we are here, it seems that we need to pay more attention." ”

Speaking of this, it reminded Chu Xunyu, so he also took out three towels and a small porcelain bottle, poured out a fragrant liquid on it, handed it to the two, and told them: "This is our family's medicine, don't be careless, let's follow the example of the person just now, cover your mouth and nose, take precautions, at least have peace of mind." ”

The two of them nodded, and they all did so, but Mu Yuan was still a ghost, he was afraid of covering it with his hands, took out a thin rope, passed it through the folded towel, and hung it on his ears, so that he could spare his hands, Wangchen and Chu Xunyu looked at Haha, and they also followed suit, looking at the appearance of the towels on the faces of the three people, they couldn't help but laugh.

After laughing, Mu Yuan looked at the empty streets, feeling still uncomfortable, so he asked Chu Xunyu, "Where are we going next?"

Chu Xunyu thought for a while, and then replied: "Let's go to the territory of the 'doctor' first, according to the recent mention here, the main thing is that I still have an 'old friend' there, and I don't know how he is now, if he is here, we may be able to inquire about something." ”

So, the three of them walked all the way through the empty and dark streets......
