Chapter 79 A Thread of Connection
yes!
Following Ding Yi's silent recitation, the porcelain bottle in Ding Yi's hand suddenly shook, and then calmed down instantly.
【Baiyunzi's Ribbon】
[The fate of ten miles is tied by a thin thread. Wearing this item on your wrist can sense the traces of Baiyunzi within a range of fifty miles and give you a reminder. 】
"What the hell is this?"
At this moment, Ding Yi was already accustomed to the things that the system had enhanced. He opened the porcelain bottle and poured out the contents, only to find that there was a slender red rope inside.
"Okay, okay, this is a thread of fate, right?"
Ding Yi had a dark look on his face, but when he thought of Bai Yunzi's huge temptation, he couldn't help but lick his lips, and then tied the red rope around his wrist.
The next moment, the red rope on Ding Yi's wrist seemed to sense something. The thread at one end suddenly stood up and pointed straight in one direction.
"..."
Ding Yi looked at this scene and couldn't complain in his heart, but then he quickly packed up the package, left the Taoist temple and went down the mountain, hurried in the direction pointed by the red rope.
Since it can be sensed within a range of fifty miles, it means that Baiyunzi did not choose to escape after performing the blood sacrifice in Xiaotan Village, but chose to continue to stay nearby.
It has to be said that the courage of this evil spirit is incredible.
Ding Yi ran along the direction pointed by the red rope, passing through villages one after another. Some of them had become a pile of ruins, while others were still inhabited by more than a dozen families.
At the end, Ding Yi came to a slightly larger village. At this moment, the red rope on his wrist changed from staying still to constantly changing directions.
Taking a look at the red rope on his wrist, Ding Yi knew that he was quite close to the target, otherwise the red rope would not swing so accurately.
"It looks like the village ahead is here."
Ding Yi sneered in his heart, then opened the quicksand map and took another look, then stepped into the village in front of him.
The living standard in this village seems to be better than that in Xiaotan Village.
The sun was about to set at this moment, but there were still many people walking around in the village, but they were obviously in a hurry, rushing towards the house.
A stranger like Ding Yi suddenly entered the village, which attracted the attention of these villagers.
They looked at Ding Yi, who was slowly walking into the village, with wary expressions on their faces. The men secretly took out steel forks and sticks, and the women hurriedly pulled the children who were still playing into the house, and A pair of eyes peeked out from the window and looked at Ding Yi secretly.
Seeing this, Ding Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
These reactions indicate that these villagers are still normal people. If they are eroded by the blood evil, they will gradually lose their consciousness and become walking corpses like the villagers of Xiaotan Village.
"Young man, where are you from and where are you going?"
At this moment, an old man came out from behind the villagers, looked at Ding Yi and asked with a cold face.
"My father-in-law, I came here from another state and went to Qingfeng County."
"It was getting dark, and I saw smoke drifting by here, so I wanted to stay here for one night and leave early tomorrow morning."
Ding Yi looked at the old man and said quickly.
"You're not welcome here, you'd better stay somewhere else!"
The old man did not let down his guard at all because of Ding Yi's words. Instead, he spoke directly and coldly.
After hearing the old man's words, the men behind him looked ferocious for a moment, and they all took a step forward, and the weapons in their hands were vaguely pointed at Ding Yi.
Ding Yi looked at this scene, his expression did not change. Instead, he put one hand into his sleeve, took out a white thing, and threw it directly to the old man.
The old man subconsciously took the thing thrown over and took a closer look. It was a small piece of fine silver ingot.
The old man's eyes twitched, and he stretched out his hand to weigh it. He estimated that the piece of silver in his hand might weigh three or four, and his hands were trembling slightly at the moment.
"Sir, you are our distinguished guest in Yunxi Village!"
The old man immediately put on a smile, and then waved to Ding Yi:
"If you don't mind being a distinguished guest, please come and stay at my house for one night!"
When Ding Yi heard the old man's words, a smile suddenly appeared on his lips, while the men behind the old man looked at each other, but slowly put down the weapons in their hands.
Ding Yi glanced at the slightly raised red rope on his wrist, and then said to the old man:
"Then I'll trouble my husband."
With that said, Ding Yi followed the old man and walked toward the back of the village.
"By the way, father-in-law, there are very few strangers here, otherwise why would you be so wary of me?"
Walking on the road, Ding Yi suddenly asked the old man.
"Ah, that's it. In this world, how can we let strangers into the village casually? Once we encounter those disaster stars, it will be over!"
"Several surrounding villages have been swallowed up by the disaster. Our Yunxi Village may have to be relocated in a while."
The old man sighed.
"However, a group of people came to our place recently. However, they are traders and cannot be considered strangers. We still have many things in our village that we need to rely on them to bring them from outside."
The old man suddenly thought of something and continued.
"Going into business?"
Ding Yi muttered, then he stopped talking and followed the old man silently.
After a while, the old man took Ding Yi to a slightly larger house.
"Lao Chen is the village chief here. This is Lao Chen's house. There is an empty room in it. Let's stay in that room tonight!"
The old man introduced with a smile.
"That would be troublesome."
Ding Yi quickly replied with a smile.
The old man's house is very big. It doesn't look like an ordinary house, but it is worthy of his status as village chief.
As for the room the old man was talking about, it was an inner bedroom located at the far end of the house. It was not large in area and contained only a bed and a cabinet.
Ding Yi entered the room, put the package on the cabinet, and then leaned on the bed, thinking about what the old man said just now.
From this point of view, if Bai Yunzi is really here, he must be doing business as the old man said.
Wait until it gets dark and go take a look.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi stood up and prepared to see if the window in the room was easy to open. However, he was surprised to find that after opening the window, the outside was sealed with wooden strips. He was slightly startled.
At this moment, the old man opened the wooden door and walked in with a bowl of porridge-like sticky stuff in his hand.
"This is to prevent outsiders from breaking in at night."
The old man happened to see Ding Yi looking at the window and immediately explained with a smile.
Ding Yi glanced at the old man, smiled, and then moved his eyes to the bowl in his hand.
"Ah, this noble man has come here after a long journey. He must be hungry. Come on, take a bite of the freshly baked batter to warm yourself up."
As the old man spoke, he handed the bowl towards Ding Yi.
