Cold, that's the first feeling.

This was followed by pain.

Bai Xiu struggled to get up, grabbed something in a trance, and climbed up with the only strength he had left.

After a moment of respite, he finally sobered up a little, and when he looked closely, there was a small river more than three meters wide beneath him.

The banks of the river were overgrown with thorns and weeds, and perhaps it was because of their obstruction that he did not continue to float down the river.

After regaining a little strength, he stood up and looked around, the surrounding mountains were completely unfamiliar, and he thought that he had already left the Hongmeng Mountains.

But think about it, night will fall at this time, it should be the next night, he was afraid that he had been in a coma for a day.

Thinking of the dead Bai Yu, he suddenly felt a little gloomy, obviously it was the day before, but he was like a world away - deep down in his heart he didn't want to accept such a fact at all.

Bai Xiu raised his head and looked at the dark and gloomy sky, a little confused in his heart, no matter how regretful he was, the past could not be repeated, where should he go next?

A sound of footsteps interrupted his musings.

He came back to his senses and turned his head to see a crowd of people rushing in the direction of the lower reaches of the river.

Before he could take a closer look, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd: "There are ghosts!

The others were probably startled by him, and there was a commotion, and then they reacted and turned on the flashlight and shone it in this direction.

As soon as they saw Bai Xiu, a few people shouted in horror: "Ghost!"

What's more, they just run away, and within a minute, only a few bold people are left in the group.

Bai Xiu subconsciously touched his eyes.

It was then that he remembered that it had returned to normal, and that the way they would react was not the cause of the ghost's eyes.

It was not surprising that he suddenly appeared here and frightened the nearby villagers.

He hurriedly said: "I'm sorry to scare you, I'm not a ghost, I just accidentally fell into the river and was washed here." ”

He didn't say that it was okay, but when he said that the remaining few people went most of them again.

As they ran, they said, "His face is as white as a ghost, and he says so, I'm afraid that the person who drowned in the river is looking for a substitute!"

Bai Xiu shook his head again and again.

However, he noticed that two people were quite calm, and instead of running away, they walked unhurriedly.

As soon as he looked at him, Bai Xiu became more and more curious in his heart.

The two of them were dressed in straight suits, and they were dressed completely differently from the villagers just now.

They were both in their thirties, one short and sturdy, with a small flat head, and the other tall with a long beard.

The short man looked at him with a pair of eyes purring, and then said with a smile: "Little brother, have you encountered any trouble, do you need help?"

Bai Xiu's mind turned, and he casually made up an experience, and only said the location of Hongmeng Town.

The other party groaned: "Little brother, are you mistaken, the place you said takes a day to take the train, how can you float here?"

Bai Xiu was surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask what kind of place this is?"

The short man replied, "This is a small village under Huicheng, called Chongling Village.

My brother and I were in charge of collecting some strange things for our host, and when we heard that the village was haunted, we wondered if there was something evil at work, so we came to find out what was going on. ”

"Huicheng...... Bai Xiu said silently, and suddenly said, "Is there still an island in this area?"

The short man smiled and said, "Little brother has also heard of Mingyue Island?

I heard that there used to be a big family that was wiped out, and now it has become a ghost island that everyone talks about, maybe there will be some treasures there. ”

I don't know if it was a coincidence or fate, he drifted to the vicinity of Mingyue Island...... Bai Xiu thought about it for a while, and immediately had a plan.

Seeing that he was thoughtful, the short man smiled again: "What, the little brother is also interested, do you want to go over with us?"

Bai Xiu nodded smoothly, and then asked, "What's wrong with this village?"

The short man sighed and sighed: "That is, I lost some chickens, ducks, cats and dogs and other livestock, and I think there are some wild beasts lurking nearby."

They said that tonight was the day of the ghost coming to the door again, and invited us to catch the ghost together, but I don't know who shouted just now, and chased a group of people here.

I heard that the person in front of me also injured the ghost, but he didn't catch it...... Hehe, I haven't heard that ghosts can be injured by people, maybe it's the beast I just said is hungry and comes to the village to feed, don't you say?"

Without waiting for Bai Xiu to answer, the tall man who had not spoken suddenly said, "I smell a little blood, I'm afraid that thing ran into the nearby woods, why don't we go and take a look?"

Bai Xiu did not refuse, if there was really any fierce beast hiding nearby, of course he had to drive it away, lest it continue to harm the local villagers.

The short man was also anxious, and as soon as he grabbed the other man, he walked in the direction he pointed.

After following them for half a mile, Bai Xiu also smelled a smell of blood, and after a little search, he vaguely saw a furry thing crawling among the weeds.

When he got closer, it was a snow-white mountain stalk.

The mountain is rare, and the white mountain is even more unheard of.

"Yo he, it's really shit luck today!" the short man sighed, "I don't know how much it can be sold for such a beautiful mountain fly......

The tall man shook his head and said: "This thing has been cultivated for a long time, if it is raised by others, I am afraid that it will be a lot of trouble, so it is better for us to kill it on the spot, and it can be regarded as a good thing for the nearby villages." ”

The mountain demon seemed to understand the conversation between the two, and looked at Bai Xiu, who had not spoken, with deep eyes, as if begging him.

It just so happened that the two were arguing, and the short man asked him, "We're tied one to one, little brother, what do you say about it?"

Bai Xiu looked at its survival gaze, as if she saw Bai Yu before she died, was she also afraid of dying at that time, eager to live and reunite with her family?

Thinking like this, he inevitably felt compassion, and couldn't help but say: "It already has its own consciousness, it is not a dead thing, and it is not easy to cultivate, so let's let it live." ”

The short man's eyes widened, and the tall man muttered, "But what if it endangers the neighbors again?"

Bai Xiu squatted down and touched Shan Yao's head, and said in a low voice: "If you can stay away from here and no longer disturb the human race, we will let you go, okay?"

It was also strange to say, as soon as his words fell, it nodded slightly.

Bai Xiu stood up and said to the two of them: "There is a difference between the spirits of things, since it has agreed, it will never come back like an ordinary beast." ”

The short man shook his head again and again, and was about to speak, but was preempted by the tall man: "In that case, let it go." ”

Bai Xiu helped it stop the bleeding, and it arched its claws at the three of them, and flew into the forest, fleeing with a smaller white flax in its mouth.

Looking at their vanishing backs, the short man sighed.

The tall man patted him on the shoulder and said, "Sixth, don't be so depressed, go back and say that we can't drink a meal except for that ghost." ”

As soon as the three of them returned to the village, the panicked villagers really regained their enthusiasm and set up a banquet as soon as the morning dawned.

Bai Xiu has heard of the folk customs in this area, and when he saw it today, he was worthy of his name.

They drank until the sun set in the west, and then they said goodbye.

Bai Xiu took a ride from the two to Huicheng, chatting all the way, and he exchanged names with them.

The short man is called Cheng Lu, and he is called Cheng Liu, and the tall man is called Li Chun, and he is nicknamed Chunzi.

Of course, Bai Xiu will not easily reveal his origins, and only calls himself Xin Fang.

The two were very righteous, and seeing that Bai Xiu was penniless, they booked another suite in the hotel where they lived, not to mention food and clothing, they were all well prepared.

stayed like this for another three days, until the afternoon of the fourth day, Li Chun said to Bai Xiu: "Our host has arrived, and we can go to Mingyue Island tomorrow, Brother Xin has been waiting for a long time." ”

Cheng Lu looked at him, rolled his eyes, and said, "Xin Fang, anyway, you don't have anything to worry about now, why don't you come to our host's house for a few days...... How nice it is that we are friends and colleagues again!"

Bai Xiu secretly felt guilty, Cheng Lu would say this, it was also because of the origin he made up before.

Although in his current situation, these are not lies, but people treat him as a friend, but he has a lot to hide, and it is really unreasonable.

Thinking like this, he was a little embarrassed to refuse, nodded and said, "If you can, that's great." ”

Cheng Luxi smiled and said continuously: "Don't worry, our owner is very talkative." ”

Bai Xiu didn't care, and chatted with them a few more words, and six cars stopped at the door of the hotel.

Cheng Lu took the lead and opened the door for the most luxurious one.

A young man stepped out of the car, didn't look at him, and went straight to the hotel.

Li Chun stood aside and said respectfully: "Owner." ”

The other party nodded casually, and his gaze swept towards Bai Xiu.

Bai Xiu was also looking at him.

There is no doubt that this is a good-looking man.

His body is slender, his eyebrows are handsome, and he is gloomy and has a bit of sharpness, which is quite magnanimous.

The young man stared at him for a moment, then glanced away at Li Chun inquiringly.

Li Chun hurriedly said: "This is a little brother we met on the road, Cheng Lu and I saw that he was lonely, so we wanted to ask the owner for an errand for him." ”

The young man looked at Bai Xiu again, then nodded, and said to Li Chun, "Just let him join you...... I'm tired, go and rest first. ”

As he spoke, he went upstairs surrounded by a large number of entourage.

Not long after, Cheng Lu came down again, and asked as he ran: "How is it, how is it, has the owner agreed?"

Li Chun nodded.

Bai Xiu hesitated in his heart and asked tentatively, "What are we doing?"

Cheng Lu was about to speak, but when he saw Li Chun shaking his head without a trace, he rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Didn't I tell you, I just found something strange for the owner." ”

If it was before, Bai Xiu would have believed it, but now Cheng Lu still said so, he couldn't help but be suspicious, and secretly speculated, what is the origin of these people?

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Li Chun apologized and said: "Brother Xin, it's not that we deliberately hide it from you, it's just that we have explained it above, and we can't reveal it to the new colleagues for the time being." ”

Bai Xiu didn't have that much curiosity, and when he saw that they were embarrassed, he didn't ask anymore.

The next day, Cheng Lu came over to call him and went to the hall downstairs together.

The young man was standing in the doorway with five men, and when he saw them coming downstairs, he turned and sat in the car next to him.

Bai Xiu was a little surprised, looking at yesterday's pomp, he still thought that this person was a pampered gentleman, but he didn't expect the other party to go to Mingyue Island with them.

However, he didn't ask too much, and followed Cheng Lu and the others into another car.

The two cars did not go very fast, walked for about an hour, and stopped at a small pier.

The pier was very simple, because it was just dawn and there were not many people, only the owner and the guy of the breakfast shop next to it were busy.

The driver of the car, who was in his forties, seemed to be a local, said hello to the boss and asked them to sit around a row of tables and chairs.

After a while, the man brought nine bowls of noodles and sent them to everyone one by one.

The group didn't say hello or say hello, and ate noodles with their heads bowed.

At this time, Bai Xiu noticed that except for Cheng Lu, Li Chun and the driver, although the other three were very obedient to the young man's orders, they were more respectful to the other old man.

It was this almost ancient old man who made Bai Xiu realize that something was wrong, and he even guessed their purpose.

This is a cultivator, and a cultivator of extraordinary strength - Bai Xiu has captured extremely strong spiritual power fluctuations in this person.

The three people who followed the old man also had spiritual power fluctuations, although they were much weaker.

A group of cultivators, many of whom have advanced cultivation, really went to Mingyue Island for the strange things Cheng Lu said they said?

I'm afraid they're heading for Mingyue Island.

But Mingyue Island was destroyed twenty years ago, and the important things were either plundered by the enemy or destroyed by the torrent of time, so what did they go to find?

Isn't it also a fragment of the Tribulation Ding?
