Li Mu's parents were originally from the same village.

After my mother got married, she lived on my father's side, just across the river from my grandmother's house, about three kilometers away.

For children growing up in the countryside, walking a three-kilometer road is not worth mentioning at all.

Besides, there is not so much hypocrisy in life.

The more hypocritical people are, the more tired they tend to live.

I remember when I was a child, my mother often took Li Mu to walk to my grandmother's house to play.

Since elementary school, Li Mu has been thinking about his grandmother, and he will run to his grandmother's house by himself.

Growing up in a big village, I am naturally friendly and familiar with the road and the surrounding environment.

But.

Li Mu found that he just said that he wanted to go home and have a look, so Impermanence walked directly in the direction of his house, as if he was more familiar with the road than him.

When chatting with Liu Hao last night.

learned that Wuchang was Liu Hao's high school classmate, and the relationship between the two had always been good, but Wuchang's family lived in the county seat, and this was the first time he came to Li Mu's village.

But how could Impermanence know the address of his family in the countryside?

Black and white kittens are only the size of a palm.

It's a bit smaller than the average cat.

Sleeping with their bodies curled up together, the size of their fists.

Li Mu carried it for a while, and he simply put the kitten, which was always asleep, into the pocket of his coat.

Grandma's family and Li Mu's family are within the scope of a large village, but the two families belong to their own small villages.

The two small villages are led by a concrete road.

At present, the rural areas of the country are basically connected to cement roads.

It's just that the cement road is very narrow, and two cars can't pass side by side, and when you make the wrong car, you need to retreat to a more spacious place.

But it's better than walking on muddy dirt roads, especially when it's raining, and the advantages of concrete roads come to the fore.

Impermanence walked in front, and Li Mu followed behind.

Suddenly.

Impermanence changed lanes in the middle of the main road and walked towards the dirt path next to it.

"Hey......" Li Mu was startled and wanted to shout impermanence, but this guy seemed to be unable to hear, and walked straight ahead.

The trail is a shortcut.

Anyone who grew up in this big village knows this trail.

From this path to Li Mu's house, it can save about five minutes.

There were many people who walked this path before, but then no one did.

Not because of the cement road, but because something strange happened on the trail.

There is a cypress forest next to the trail.

There are some tombstones erected crookedly in the woods.

As everyone knows.

Most rural people are buried after death.

Although cremation is now promoted, burial is still a difficult habit to change in rural areas.

In the countryside, it is common to pass by the side of the cemetery.

Because there is no overall plan for the burial location, they all look for Mr. Yin and Yang to see the location, and bury the person there if he thinks it is good.

Tombstones in the cypress forest, most of which are slabs of low stone.

Only at the very front of the cemetery, there is a tall and majestic tombstone.

However, I don't know how long these steles have passed, the handwriting on them has weathered, and even some of them have collapsed.

I heard that when Grandpa Li Mu was not even born.

This tombstone in the cypress grove exists.

Anyone who walks through the cypress forest will either become insane or commit suicide, and none of them will be able to live like a normal person.

Since then, no one in the village has dared to take this shortcut.

Once.

Li Mu quietly ran to his grandmother's house alone.

It's this shortcut.

When passing through the cemetery, the feeling that the air is stagnant and becomes extremely cold is very obvious.

There was silence all around.

It seems that all that accompanies him is these cold stone tablets.

Li Mu, who was still a child, was so frightened that he ran to his grandmother's house.

Whoa!

But then, he clearly heard the sound of kneeling behind him.

It's like thousands of troops wearing battle armor, kneeling down to see him off......

The strange thing is that Li Mu survived, not crazy or dead.

Later, Li Mu was beaten by his father for this.

In his memory, it was the only time his father hit him angrily.

Li Mu recalled the things about this mysterious trail in his mind, and kept walking forward.

Impermanence was noticeably much faster than him.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

The trail had not been walked on for many years, and was overgrown with weeds half a man high, but fortunately, when people walked before, the dirt on the road was pressed too tightly, and the road could still be faintly seen.

Suddenly.

The view in front of you is no longer blocked by tall weeds.

The road surface that was once overgrown with weeds suddenly became barren.

Li Mu was startled, and hurriedly looked around, looking for the figure of impermanence.

Only then did he realize that before he knew it, he had walked to the location of the cemetery.

There are not too many weeds in front of you to block the view, and you can see at a glance that it is far away, and there is no impermanence.

"No matter how fast a person goes, he can't go so fast, right? Li Mu frowned and looked at the cemetery.

In the cemetery there are only bustling cypress trees and cold stone monuments.

Other than that, not a single weed is visible on the ground.

Suddenly.

Li Mu saw a person standing in front of the cemetery.

It's impermanence.

"Impermanence......" he shouted, but Impermanence stood motionless in the graveyard.

Something went wrong?

Unlikely.

I feel impermanence knows a lot about ghosts and demons, and there are ways to stop ghosts and demons, otherwise it is impossible to help the third uncle out of trouble, let alone save him from the bride's ghost.

"Impermanence......" Li Mu shouted again, but Impermanence still did not respond to him.

I thought about it for a moment.

Step into the cemetery.

There are not many stone tombstones standing on the cemetery, most of which have collapsed over the years.

The soil on the ground is very hard, and there is really no grass.

I remember the older generation said,

If there is no grass on a person's grave, it indicates that the person's ghost has become a soul king.

The Soul King is the king of the Yin Soul.

Powerful, ferocious, and terrifying!

There is not a single grass around every tombstone in this cypress forest, could it be that there are dozens of soul kings here?

Li Mu has a little numb scalp, it is obviously a hot day, but the cold air in the cypress forest is pervasive, and the cold is biting.

This strange atmosphere made him speed up his pace and walk behind impermanence.

But he was about to reach out and pat Impermanence's shoulder, when Impermanence's cold and resolute voice sounded:

"The attack must be overcome, the defense must be strong, and the horse leather shroud will move forward......"
