Good luck with koi carp

Chapter 90 Formation
Walking along the country path towards Mu Zhen's home, Chi Li could feel peeping glances from all directions.


There was no malice in these eyes, but they were full of fear and wariness. An ordinary monk might have felt offended. Chili could probably guess the reason why these villagers were like this, and he could understand it to a certain extent.


The village looked dilapidated from the outside. When I walked inside, I realized that the situation was far worse than Chili imagined.


Many people's houses cannot be called houses. They are just broken frames held up by a few wooden sticks and straw. They also leak from all directions and have no function of protecting them from wind and rain. They can only be said to be better than nothing.


The whole village is like this, and the village chief's family is naturally not much better.


"Here we are, this is the old man's home."


After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, Mu Zhen stopped and pointed to an adobe thatched house in front of him with a big hole in the wall.


Chili took a quick look and saw that although the house was dilapidated, it occupied a large area. In addition to the main room in the middle, there were two wing rooms on the left and right sides. It was better than most houses in the village.


Apparently the village chief's family used to be considered a wealthy household in the village.


"My old lady has gone back to her parents' house with her grandson and granddaughter to visit relatives. She won't be back for a few more days. I'm the only one in the old man's family now. If the immortal doesn't mind, I can stay in my granddaughter's house first."


It was also because his family was away that Mu Zhen dared to take people home, so that even if something happened, at least his family would be outside and they would be able to escape.


Chi Li could naturally guess Mu Zhen's little thoughts, and she didn't care. She nodded directly and said, "It's okay. I'm the one disturbing your house. These silver coins will be counted as the room charges for these days, so just accept it."


After saying this, she handed Mu Zhen the silver she had promised before.


Although she said before that she didn't want money, Chi Li is not a person who likes to make others suffer, so she still has to give it.


Perhaps because he was afraid that he would offend the immortal if he refused again, Mu Zhen didn't say anything this time. He took the money and led Chi Li into his granddaughter's house, then turned around to make a fire to cook.


Those who come are guests, so they should prepare some food to entertain them.


The Mu family's granddaughter's house is not big, and the furnishings inside are also very simple. There is only a bed and a bamboo box to hold things. It can be seen that the owner of the house is a clean person, which makes Chili's stay more comfortable.


First, place a few restrictions around the house to isolate some possible explorations, and then unfold your spiritual consciousness to cover the entire village silently.


Under Chi Li's spiritual exploration, the village was completely exposed to her perception.


She could 'see' Muzhen who was busy lighting the fire in the kitchen, she could also see the villagers gathered together in every household talking about something unknown, and she could also see scattered people working in the fields. But when her consciousness extended to the west of the village, But it was hindered.


The existence that can hinder the spiritual consciousness of Yuanying monks...


Without alerting the snake, Chili Tathagata quietly withdrew his consciousness just like when he came.


Not long after, Mu Zhen knocked on the door and delivered food.


Chi Li opened the door to pick her up and politely thanked her.


Unexpectedly, he was able to receive a thank you from the immortal. Mu Zhen acted a little flattered and frightened. A complicated look flashed across his eyes, as if he hesitated to speak. In the end, he turned around and left without saying anything.


The meal Mu Zhen brought was very simple, just a bowl of white porridge, a plate of fried vegetables and a stack of steamed bacon. Knowing that this was the best thing they could offer, Chi Li didn't mind it, so she picked up the bowl and chopsticks and gave it to him. Eat everything.


With Jiuxuan Cold Water protecting her body, she was not afraid of whether others would tamper with her inside. If there was any problem, it would be dealt with directly by the strange water in her body.


Of course, Jiuxuan Cold Water itself has no detoxification effect, but it can wrap up the toxins ingested in Chili's body, and then excrete them from the body through sweating. Since this water is cold in nature, it is manifested in Chili's body. Frost on the table.


Don't ask how she knows.
The problem is that she was greedy and secretly took the poisonous elixir, and then almost turned into a frozen fish on the spot.


You can sell it directly on the market.


It was still early after dinner, and it had not yet reached sunset. Chi Li simply cast an invisibility spell on herself, and then went out to check in a place that could not be detected by her spiritual consciousness before.


This was her original plan, but when she was halfway there, she heard some villagers talking about her privately, so she couldn't help but curiously moved over to eavesdrop.


"Why did the village chief bring an immortal back? How dangerous it is. What if she has any bad intentions?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. The immortal insists on living here, and we can't resist. If we offend the immortal, we won't know how we'll die."

"Oh, when is this day going to end?"

"Who knows, just live one day at a time."

"I see that the immortal has a good temper, so he doesn't look like... a bad person, right?"

"Oh, you know people but don't know their hearts. Don't those... all look like gods and immortals? What kind of unscrupulous thing is this?"

"You don't want your life, is that okay to say? Shut up!"

"What are you afraid of? The day has not come yet, no one has come, and you can't hear me."

"You mean you can't hear if you can't hear? Immortals have great magical powers. Who knows if every word of our words will be heard by others now."


Chi Li, who was eavesdropping: "..."


She couldn't help but lower her head to confirm whether the invisibility spell on her body was still there. After confirming, she breathed a small sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was not really discovered, otherwise it would be quite embarrassing.


Although she was indirectly understood, Chili still had no intention of leaving. She wanted to get more clues from the villagers' conversations.


"My Erdan and his wife haven't come back yet. I wonder if they have had a good meal there these days? I hope they can hold on, otherwise I will be left alone and I don't know how to survive." He said. As he spoke, the old voice began to cry bitterly, and the people around him offered comfort.

"Third Aunt, don't cry. Erdan and the others should be back one day. Just wait patiently."

"Hey, several of my children are also there."

"If you think about it, as long as they work honestly and earn wages, even though they are a little tired, they can come back in good condition."

……


Chili didn't listen to the rest of the words because she already knew the information she wanted.


Finally, we have to go to the west of the village to explore.


With a direct water escape technique, Chi Li walked from the middle of the village to the edge far away from the village. This was a mountain range. She was halfway up the mountain. From here on up, the entire mountain tip was enveloped by a formation. It's closed so people can't see what's going on inside.


Instead of testing rashly, Chi Li first patiently circled a small half circle around the outside of the formation, and then found a weak point in the formation with the power of divine consciousness far beyond that of monks in this world.


Raising his hand to seal the secret, he turned himself into a small drop of dew, like water flowing into hundreds of rivers, quietly blending into the formation from the weak point, without causing any fluctuations in the formation, nor attracting the attention of the formation controller.
