Chapter 21 Night Crossing Bamen Gorge

"Guest officer, guest officer?" Just as Duan Yuqing and the three of them were immersed in the boundless night, a timid child's voice suddenly came from behind them, which suddenly interrupted the intoxication of the three of them. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Duan Yuqing looked back and found that there was a little girl in a flower dress standing behind her, about ten years old, who was looking at the three of them with her big round eyes open at this time.

"Little girl, what's wrong?" Seeing the cute appearance of the little girl, Duan Yuqing couldn't help but love it and asked softly.

"Dad said that he was going to Bamenxia soon, the guest officer should go back to the room quickly!" The little girl pouted, and her immature voice popped out of her mouth, making Duan Yuqing love it more and more.

"Where is your father?" Duan Lingyue on the side was also interested in the little girl and asked.

This time the little girl didn't speak, she pointed back, and followed the direction of the little girl, only to see a middle-aged boatman standing behind the deck, with dark skin and an honest appearance. This person, Duan Yuqing, was also a little impressed, as if he had seen it when he got on the boat.

"Then tell your father, that the night is so beautiful, and my sister will stay here for a while. Duan Yuqing glanced in the direction of the boatman, then touched the little girl's head, and said to the little girl with a wink.

"No, sister, you have to go back, Bamenxia is terrible!" At this time, the little girl's face suddenly turned pale, and there was even a trace of fear on her face, for some reason, Sister Duan Yuqing felt a little creepy in her heart.

"Girl, listen to Fluttershy's advice and go back to the shipyard, Bamenxia has been haunted all the time, and many people have disappeared in this area, so don't be careless, girl. At this time, the boatman also came over and said to Duan Yuqing, with a sincere look on his face, not like a liar.

"Haunted? this is good, how can it be haunted?" Before Duan Yuqing could speak, Duan Lingyue asked first, and seemed to not believe what the boatman said.

"Alas, it's a sin to say it, do you know that the girl is the court inspector Lord Ning Xu?" the boatman suddenly changed his words and talked about the affairs of the court.

"Ning Xu?" Duan Lingyue muttered to herself, as if she had heard Duan Ling say it in her impression, while Duan Yuqing frowned and was silent, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she couldn't help but exclaim, and Duan Fei'er, who was not noticed by everyone on the side, also had a hint of different color flashing in her eyes.

"Are you talking about Lord Ningxu inspecting the Imperial Shi of the Five Grades of the Dynasty?"

Speaking of Ningxu, the Central Plains can be described as famous, and everyone knows it. Generally speaking, the Central Plains knights generally do not come into contact with the people of the court, and even have some resistance, after all, the people who walk in the Central Plains always go their own way and do not like to be bound by the rules and regulations of the court, but there is one person who is an exception, that is, Lord Ningxu.

Because Ning Xuan is upright, he observes the people's feelings everywhere, is enthusiastic about doing practical things for the people, spreads his reputation in the Central Plains, and indirectly helps a lot of Central Plains chivalrous people, and is deeply loved by the Central Plains, and is dry, quite heroic, perennial walking in the Central Plains and many people with lofty ideals in the Central Plains, and even many people from the Central Plains sect take the initiative to become Ning Xu's entourage bodyguards to protect the well.

But Ning Xu's approach also secretly offended many officials, after all, there must be turbidity, Ning Xu punished bullies and bandits everywhere, cracked down on bandits and pirates, arrested corrupt officials, indirectly cut off the financial route of many officials, offended many officials in the court, and finally took advantage of an opportunity, when Ning Xu escorted the court tribute, someone secretly instructed to send a large number of assassins to rob, and successfully seized the tribute.

This tribute is used by the emperor to please his favorite concubine, when he saw that he was taken away, he was naturally furious, and many people in the court took the opportunity to impeach, saying that he would rather be greedy for treasures, privately swallow tribute, and then pretend to use the hand of a strongman to exonerate himself, so he was finally convicted of the crime of punishing the nine clans.

Destiny, Ningxu Manmen 131 people, except for himself and his wife and monk's infant children, were slaughtered, killed in the patrol compound, a family of three was captured alive, ordered to be beheaded in the Beijing Gate, in order to set an example, this matter soon caused an uproar in the Central Plains.

On the day when Ning Xuan was beheaded, many chivalrous warriors in the Central Plains, under the leadership of the Master of Tianxu Valley, robbed the Dharma field on the day of execution, and finally rescued Ning Xu's infant child after paying the price of many lives, but unfortunately Ning Xu's wife was already weak, and suffered all kinds of torture during the detention, and was tortured to death in prison. Everyone fled all the way west, just here in Bamen Gorge, was caught up by the court officials, the two sides engaged in a desperate struggle, the dead are countless, and finally Ning Xu was still killed by the traitor, the bones were exposed to the wilderness, and Ning Xu's only flesh and bones, under the desperate protection of the Master Xuyin, finally broke out of the siege, fled, and still does not know where it is.

Since then, there have been rumors that Bamenxia is haunted, and even many people swear that they have seen Ningxu's headless souls wandering around here, and there are many woodcutters who have seen two groups of ghosts killing each other day and night, and over time, no one wants to get close to this place, and it gradually becomes desolate. Later, there were many people from the Central Plains who did not believe in evil and entered this place, but there has been no life so far, maybe the rumors are exaggerated, but more and more corpses and bones here prove that this place is indeed very dangerous.

And the boatman would pass by Bamen Gorge every time he ferried, so he naturally knew a lot about the rumors in this place, so when he saw that Duan Yuqing and the three of them were still staying outside, they kindly came over to remind the three of them to hurry back to the room.

While Duan Yuqing was rethinking, a terrifying night cry suddenly sounded, which startled Duan Yuqing, and when he was in shock, a heavy fog suddenly rose in the distance, and he couldn't see in confusion, and a bone-piercing cold wind hit, and he vaguely saw strange rocks on both sides of the strait, rotten dead trees with teeth and claws, trees and soil seemed to be festering on the skin, and the air was filled with a suffocating smell, and the sharp-eyed Duan Lingyue found that on a dead branch in the distance, there was a highly decomposed corpse hanging from it, with a few damp hairs sticking to the skull, and snakes and rats constantly entering and exiting in the hollow eye sockets, which made Duan Lingyue tremble all over and his little face turned pale。

"It's not good, Bamenxia has arrived, hurry in, you won't be able to go back if it's too late. When the boatman saw it, his face became extremely ugly, and he couldn't care about Duan Yuqing and the three of them anymore, so he pulled the little girl and ran to the cabin in a hurry, as if he was so scared that he didn't dare to stay for a moment.

Duan Yuqing's sisters were originally girls, even if they had good skills, but they were inevitably afraid when they talked about ghosts, as soon as they saw the boatman who dared to stay like this, they hurriedly ran towards the shipbuilding, and when they looked back and saw that Duan Fei'er was still stunned there, Duan Lingyue couldn't help but be angry, turned around and grabbed Duan Fei'er's ears and ran to the shipbuilding, all the way as if being chased by someone, three steps and two steps into the room, after the three of them entered the room, Duan Yuqing closed the door of the house, tightly tied it from the inside, her hands trembled, and she didn't seem to have come back to her senses.

"Mom, it's so scary, why did such a terrible place suddenly appear. Duan Lingyue was still shocked, sat on the chair tremblingly, poured a cup of tea by herself, and drank it all.

"It seems that we have entered Bamenxia now. Duan Yuqing said with palpitations, thinking about the terrifying scene outside the ship, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, thinking that fortunately her shipbuilding was located in the middle, if it was on both sides of the ship, there was that scene outside the window, how could she dare to stay in the room.

"Sister, I'm afraid, why don't we sleep together tonight!" Ling Yue said at this time.

Regarding Duan Lingyue's proposal, Duan Yuqing even agreed with both hands, and when she turned around, she saw Duan Fei'er smirking at the two sisters in a daze, and couldn't help but be stunned, how could Duan Fei'er be locked in the room.

Although he is a fool, it is always inconvenient for a lonely man and a widow to be in the same room, and if it spreads, the innocence of the two sisters will be ruined, but if you want to drive him out, where can you drive him, in case he is caught by a ghost outside, the two sisters will have a headache.
