A snowfall, washing away the mortal dust, the snow in the middle of winter, falling vividly, covering the hustle and bustle of the world, wrapped in silver like a fairyland. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's nice to be able to overlook the snow in mid-air. But the reality is that you can only walk in the snow with all your strength, step on one foot, sink half a leg into it, and every step is very difficult.

"Senior Gongzi, with such a walk, I'm afraid that I won't be able to reach Spirit Vulture Mountain on Chinese New Year's Eve next year. "Ahri can't change his form and run faster.

Lu Gongzi still walked very chic in the snow with a ruler, and said that if Ahri dared to change into a fox, she would never be able to change back.

Ahri looked forward to it, and finally looked forward to a place where there were people, and where there were people, there would be roads, and the snow on the road would not be so difficult to walk.

At the foot of the mountain in the distance, there is a small town, and there is a road that winds its way to the outside of the mountain. Ahri cheered up and went around the road, and sure enough, the snow on the road was solid.

It's just that the path is somewhat unusual. Not long after the snow stopped, the snow on the road was already very solid, and it can be seen that many people walked by, and there was a lot of paper money on the side of the road.

Ahri knew that this was used by the dead in the mortal world, but this was a bit much, right? There was a thick layer on the side of the road, and under the snow layer, there was also a faint piece of paper money.

"What's wrong?" Lu Gongzi asked when he saw Ahri standing on the side of the road in a daze.

"With so much paper money, a lot of people must have died. Ahri kicked the snow next to him, and there was a layer of paper money and banner foil pressed on top of each other, and it looked like it had been accumulated for a long time, and the paper money on the lower layer had begun to decay. "Could it be the plague?" The last time I saw the plague causing corpses all over the field in Liangzhou, I still left a deep impression on Ahri.

"No, plagues are usually common in spring and summer, and we have never heard of plagues in winter. Lu Gongzi said, "Instead of speculating here, it is better to go over and investigate, and maybe there will be an answer." ”

As I walked on, I found a pile of ashes every few minutes, burning as if it were clothes. Lu Gongzi asked Ahri to remove those ashes, and the things underneath were soaked with snow and water, and they were not completely burned.

"Yes, there is a custom among the people, if the child dies young, the parents will burn the things used by the child before his death in order to avoid touching the feelings. Lu Gongzi looked at the road ahead, and there were piles of ashes every short distance on the road, counting dozens of piles.

"So, either a child with a lot of money died in the town, or a lot of children died. Emotionally, Ahri prefers the former, but she vaguely feels that it should be the latter.

We followed the path covered with paper money and ashes until we reached the town at the foot of the mountain, but the road was gone, blocked by a gate.

There are steep slopes on both sides, and it seems that if you want to get in and out of the town, you have to enter this gate.

There was a big tree next to the door, and a large brass bell hung from the tree, and a rope was attached to it. Lu Gongzi speculated that it should be a copper bell, and someone would come to open the door, Ahri tried to shake the rope, and the sound of the copper bell was long and clear.

Sure enough, as soon as the bell rang, the door opened, and an old monk with white hair pushed the door open with great difficulty, looked at the two of them, and came to salute.

"Amitabha, a distinguished guest from afar passes through this place, the old man is late, and the donor atones for his sins. ”

"The master is polite, our master and servant, we went out to travel, and the road was closed by heavy snow, so I came to rest for a while, I don't want to disturb the master's purity. ”

The two were polite, the old monk welcomed them in, and the door was facing a large hall, the hall ** Buddha, but it was also a treasure solemn, but this direction was wrong, the ordinary Buddha hall is sitting in the north and facing south, but this hall is just the opposite, facing the north.

Ahri naturally has no interest in the Buddha hall, and Lu Gongzi doesn't care at all, which makes her quietly relieved, if he is a person from the Buddha realm, how can he pass the Buddha hall and not worship?

The old monk warmly invited them to use tea, but Ahri was not interested in drinking tea, she was like eating something delicious at the moment, and after sleeping again, she urged Lu Gongzi with her eyes.

This temple is not big, around the main hall, is the gate, out of the door to the town.

There is a huge stone tablet at the entrance of the town, and there are only three big characters on the tablet, Liujia Town.

"Originally, it was called Rokko Town, and the name was kind of interesting. "Rokko Town should look quite bustling, with a lot of shops along the street. It's just that for some reason, there wasn't a single pedestrian on the street.

Not only that, walking along the street, every house is closed, and what's even worse is that in front of almost every house, there are two boys wearing red and green paper, and the hair of Ahri stands on end. Because she knew that this thing was used by dead people, and then she thought about the thick layer of paper money on the way here, and the piles of children's clothes that were burned......

Ahri tightly grabbed Lu Gongzi's clothes and said softly, "I think this place is so weird, it seems that every family has died, are you sure it's not a plague?"

"What, are you scared?" Lu Gongzi said mockingly.

Ahri instantly let go of his belt. "Just kidding, how could I be afraid, I was just looking for some demons and monsters to try out my new magic weapon. Having said that, in the face of unknown things, I was still a little worried in my heart, and quietly held the virtual flower in my hand.

The town is not small, with a street five miles long and a cliff high into the clouds at the end. Walking through the five-mile long street, I didn't meet a single person, and no shop opened, but I faintly heard the sound of chickens and dogs barking, proving that this was not a dead place.

"Senior son, did you do something to hide the demonic aura here and surprise me at night?" Ahri asked.

"What, are you afraid?" Lu Gongzi held his hands on his back, and as soon as he heard this sentence, Ahri became angry when he heard it.

"I'm not afraid, but I'm afraid that when the time comes, it will happen suddenly, and it will be too late to protect your old man!"

"Good means," Lu Gongzi exclaimed, "You have to have this momentum, you have to believe that with your mana, and now that you have a magic weapon in your hand, any demon and monster in this mortal world cannot be your opponent." Don't be afraid at any time, especially these ethereal fears, and you don't need to have them. ”

Ahri nodded and was taught, to put it bluntly, she was not confident enough, before she came to the mortal world, she thought that her cultivation was already good, who knew that there were so many complicated things in the mortal world, which seriously affected her self-confidence.

Seeing that the sky is about to dark, there is still no one on the empty street, and I still want to have a good meal, but now it seems that there is no place to stay.

"Where have all the people in this town gone? Ahri said irritably.

Lu Gongzi wrote lightly, "It's very simple to want to know what's going on, just ask." ”

"There is no one, who to ask?"

"Who said there wasn't a person?" Lu Gongzi raised his eyebrows and said, "You forgot, who let us in?"
