The moment the gourd was in his hand, for some reason, a strange sound echoed in his head. It was like some kind of whisper, constantly telling me something, but listening closely, I couldn't hear anything.

"Ahh

I covered my ears with my hands, and there was a sharp pain in the center of my eyebrows, like a fire burning in my skull.

Close your eyes and see the chaos. It was as if all the paintings had been torn apart, and even the darkness after I closed my eyes gradually converged into a huge whirlpool, as if it was about to suck me in.

Unable to do anything, his body was involuntarily swallowed up by the darkness.

"In the near future, we will meet ......"

I heard a voice coming from the darkness, and suddenly the voice in my ears disappeared, and when I opened my eyes, I saw the fat man and Luo Qiong looking at me with frightened eyes, and avoided them from a distance.

I was half-kneeling on the ground, holding the red gourd in both hands, and the ground around me was full of burning flames, which surrounded me and turned into a huge and strange circle.

All the ghosts of the lanterns were gone, and only the black yin qi drifted into the sky. I got up from the ground tiredly, but the fat man and Luo Qiong unconsciously took a few steps back.

"What's wrong? I...... Where's the ghost?"

I asked, shaking my head, my head aching as if it were cracking, and the pain in my forehead and eyebrows was fading away.

"You just burned the ghosts to death, don't you know?"

The fat man asked in surprise.

"I burned to death?"

I said in surprise. Looking at the flames around him, the ground was scorched black, and he could clearly see that there were black scorch marks on the ground, and if you counted them carefully, you would find that the number of scorch marks corresponded to the number of lantern ghosts, and one scorch mark represented a lantern ghost that was burned to death.

"How so?"

I was amazed myself.

At this moment, the firelight attracted the attention of the villagers at the foot of the mountain, and a bright light appeared in the village at the foot of the mountain, and Lingqian walked forward quickly and said, "Leave first, otherwise the villagers will find us next to the flames, and we won't be able to tell." ”

The people in the mountains hate to set fire to the mountains the most, and a fire may destroy a mountain and cut off the way of life for the people in the mountains.

We hurriedly retreated, got to the other side of the forest, and saw in the distance that villagers had already gone up the mountain. Standing in the dark forest, I looked at the gourd in my hand, I don't know when the gourd has been covered, the seal on the top is a black and red cover, I tried to pull it out, but I don't know if it is because I don't have the strength in my hands or the gourd cover is peculiar, I pulled it out several times in a row and didn't get it open.

"This gourd lid can't be opened. ”

I said strangely.

The fat man took it and tried to pull it out, but it didn't move at all, as if it was sealed.

"This fucking spell has been cast, how can it not be opened. ”

The fat man muttered strangely.

At this moment, a ray of moonlight poured down from the sky and sprinkled on the hillside, creating a dreamlike world.

Ethereal valleys, sprawling yet barren worlds, dark hillsides, cold moonlight shining from the sky.

It seemed to be a fairy mist floating up, and I saw a silver light in the moonlight shuttling through the mountains and forests.

"Silver ......"

I pointed ahead and said, in fact, all of us saw it.

"It's a snake, it's a big snake, it's really big......"

Luo Qiong said in surprise.

About a hundred meters away from us, there was a figure with a silver light shuttling through the forest, extremely fast, wandering through the twisted forest, but not seeing the head or the tail.

"It's definitely more than ten meters, damn it, it's more than twenty meters, it's more than that. Look at that thick body, like wheels!"

The fat man shouted in surprise.

"Chase!"

Lingqian had already run out at the same time as she spoke, which was an impulsive move, but she had already run out, and we could only run out with it. Running through the forest, Lingqian rushed towards the silver figure with vigorous skills.

The distance of a hundred meters was measured visually, but it took several minutes to actually run, and when we rushed to the silver figure, the light suddenly exploded, and the silver light came to our faces, and several of us were forced to stop and cover our eyes with our hands.

Then, after about ten seconds, the light gradually dimmed, I rubbed my eyes, and when I opened my eyes again, I saw that the silver snake in front of me was gone.

"Gone, how could it be?"

Lingqian walked back and forth in the woods, shouting.

"I think there's something strange about the light just now, it doesn't look like a real snake, maybe it's just an illusion. It is often mentioned in ancient books that some goblins can cause illusions to confuse the world when they appear. The existence of the snake in the moon related to myths and stories, I think it must also cause illusions. ”

I stood in the back and said.

"But fortunately, in this way, we can be sure that there is really a moon snake in this Taibai Mountain, and the illusion will not appear for no reason. It must be in this forest......"

Lingqian clenched her fists, walked out of the forest, and stood on the slope, at this moment, on the top of the mountain in the distance, the silver light lit up again, and on the big tree at the top of the mountain, a big silver snake was entrenched, and its body dozens of meters long stretched out in the air, roaring towards the sky.

It opened its bloody mouth, its huge body like a serpent about to devour the sky, roaring silently, towards the moon, towards the sky, towards the night that covered its head.

Under the fairy aura, the silver snake spirit, this shocking scene stirred in my heart. This piece of Taibai Mountain may hide more secrets that no one knows.

Descending from the other side of the mountain, he returned to the village at the foot of the mountain in the middle of the night. Lao Fang was looking for us everywhere, and when he saw us, he immediately asked, "Where have you been?"

A few of us looked at each other, and the fat man said at this time: "A few of us rarely come to the countryside once, and we think it is fun, so we go out for a walk." What's going on?"

"Oops, the silver snake has appeared!"

He said with an exaggerated expression.

"Silver snake?

The fat man asked deliberately in a pretend.

"It's the monster in Taibai Mountain, I told you before, this time it seems to be bigger, and a fire was set off, and people from several nearby villages went up the mountain to put out the fire. Don't run around, I thought you were in the woods. ”

He said with a solemn expression.

"Old Fang, are you saying that the silver snake is bigger, bigger than when I saw it before?"

I asked curiously.

"Yes, the last time I saw it, it was only six or seven meters long, and this time it has to be more than ten meters long, and this monster is getting more and more powerful. The village chief said that he would tell the county and ask the county to arrange someone to catch snakes. Tell me, we rural people all rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and now there are so many monsters in the mountains, what should we do? You wait a few more days, and after a few days, I will take you up the mountain. ”

Lao Fang is worried that we can't wait to leave, then he won't be able to make this money.

"Okay, it's not early, let's go back to the house and rest. ”

After a few polite words we returned to the house, and after sitting down, I said, "It seems that our moon snake has grown taller." It's still developing......"

"It's not surprising, if the snake in the moon that the villagers saw before was a juvenile, it is possible that it will grow up now. Besides, the size of the illusion is not something that the goblins themselves can adjust at will? ”

"I think it's quite strange, it takes a certain range to release the illusion, the silver snake shadow we saw first appeared a hundred meters away from us, and when it rushed over, the light flickered, and it only took us about ten seconds to close our eyes. When I opened it again, it had already appeared on the top of the mountain, and the rapid transfer was a bit unexpected. ”

I raised the question in my mind.

"It's not surprising, powerful goblins often do some unbelievable things, and no one has ever dared to say that they really know everything about the demon clan, in comparison, the demon clan is too mysterious. ”

"If you want to discuss that we still have time, it's not early today, let's rest first, Lao Tzu is sleepy. ”

The fat man muttered that he wanted to sleep, and Lingqian saw that it was indeed late, so he got up and walked back to the outhouse.

I sat in a chair in the corner, and the fat man fell asleep within five minutes of getting into bed. Luo Qiong washed his face and walked in, saw me staring at the gourd in his hand, and asked strangely, "Brother Shan, are you still not resting?"

"Come on, you go to sleep. ”

I said without looking up, Luo Qiong lay down on the bed, and fell asleep after a while.

And I leaned against the window, looking at the gourd in my hand that looked like a flowing fire, and the noise that surrounded my ears sounded.

It seems that all the noise is not audible, but it seems to be able to know what the jumbled voices are saying.

Years later, I realized that the voices that lingered in my ears were actually a sentence.

"Ba Xiaoshan, your fate has opened ......"
