Lu Sheng lived in the main house of the owner of Sanhe Village, located in the middle of the village, at the back, and out of the courtyard gate was a straight road for two carriages to walk to the village.

The night was covered and the wilderness was empty, and the scream became more and more eerie, and the villagers were frightened, and turned on their lights one after another, making a rustling sound, and even hiding the exclamation so that there was nowhere to be found. Fortunately, Lu Sheng's ear power is outstanding, and he listens to the sound and distinguishes the position, and at that moment, he judged the place where the incident happened □□ not far from ten. It happened that Zhuang Tou came out of the door of the house next to him, he came in a hurry, only put on a coat, and asked in a panic: "General, general, what is going on......

At this time, a team of guards under General Lu hurriedly came, and Lu Sheng ordered: "Commander Zhao, you cooperate with Liu Zhuangtou to gather the people in the ancestral hall of the Zhuang lord and take strict precautions." Commander Bai, you follow me to check. ”

Zhao and Bai responded neatly and acted on their own orders.

Lu Sheng led the remaining dozen or so guards to the place where the screams began, it was the pomegranate forest at the end of the village in the north, where the houses were sparse, dark and dull, and the five fingers were hard to distinguish, and only the torches in the hands of the guards were lit. There was a faint trace of blood in the cold wind, and Lu Sheng was about to make a warning, when the sharp chirping of some wild fowl suddenly sounded in the air, and seven or eight black shadows swooped in, and they were actually huge crows. Lu Sheng hung the pot horizontally and stabbed at one of the crows, but the crow couldn't dodge and was easily pierced.

The guards drew their swords to meet each other, but the crows were rarely stabbed and scattered into the air. Only two guards were a little worse and were attacked, one of them had a piece of skin and flesh on his left cheek and one of his left forearm, and the wound was dripping with blood and deep to the bone, and the screams started again for a while.

Fortunately, these Yu Linlang were well-trained, and they did not panic when they lost at first glance, and immediately prepared the team, surrounded Lu Sheng in the center, or rescued, or took bows and arrows to defend, and the chaos was in order. Commander Bai was also holding a sharp sword, waiting beside Lu Sheng, and said in a low voice: "General Lu, I'm afraid that there is still an ambush, it's better to retreat first, and then ...... at dawn."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard another scream from the courtyard beside the woods, and then the gate was slammed open, and a figure stumbled out, but only two steps away, and a flock of crows flew out of the room, and surrounded the man, and the beak and claws of the bird tore the flesh of the man's body alive.

Lu Sheng said: "Go over and save people." ”

He made the first move, and everyone naturally followed, but if it was an ordinary crow, it would naturally disperse under the drive of the torch, but these crows were all fierce, and their eyes were red, and they were extremely evil. Not only was he not afraid of the fire, but when he saw someone approaching, he set up a column to snatch human flesh.

These nearly twenty well-trained Yulin guards, supported by bows and arrows in the back, and a hanging pot in front to open the way, actually took some strength, and four or five people were injured one after another, before they killed half of this strange crow flock, and the remaining crows were unwilling to disperse.

But it was still a step too late, and the woman who escaped from the house was a woman, curled up and prostrate on the ground, her back was already exposed with bloodshot ribs, her arms were also white bones, and the flesh and blood were pecked clean, and the swaddling clothes she was holding in her arms were already soaked in blood, and there was no sound at all.

When the guards turned the woman over, Lu Sheng couldn't bear to look at it anymore and turned his head away.

Commander Bai sent someone to the house to check, only to see the bones of a man blocked at the door of the bedroom, the flesh and blood were torn apart, and the bones were exposed, and the shape was terrifying. Thinking that the husband and wife were attacked in the middle of the night, the husband sacrificed his life to save his wife and children from the house - but unfortunately, it was still a failure.

After hearing the report, Lu Sheng frowned and said, "These flat-haired beasts are forced to retreat, and sooner or later they will go and come back to attack, and they will stay in place, so they must not be careless." Don't go it alone, lest you be ambushed. and then burned the bird carcass and the family of three. ”

Commander Bai hesitated slightly, but still responded: "Obey." ”

And he commanded them to go down, and they rested in their place, and took the family's firewood from the nearest place, and hastily built a fire in the courtyard to bandage the wounded.

In addition, a group of four people was arranged to take turns to collect the bird carcasses, gather them in one place, pile up straw and dry firewood, and light a fire to burn all the bones.

Seeing that the bodies of the three members of the family were also burned, Yu Linlang, who was a little younger, couldn't bear it, and muttered a few words in private, saying that it would not be troublesome to say that people died in the ground and buried on the spot, so it was better for him to bury them secretly, and he had the right to do a good deed that day.

When the older companions heard this, they sighed, "You know, this bird is so strange that I am afraid that it is a demon." These corpses were bitten all over the body, and there were not a few taels left, and the demonic qi had already entered the body, if they were buried in the ground and absorbed the essence of heaven and earth to make a corpse, wouldn't it be a self-inflicted scourge. Fortunately, General Lu is a person who understands, otherwise I would have to risk death to give a few words. ”

The younger one was horrified when he heard this, and hurriedly added two handfuls of firewood to the fire.

Lu Sheng saw that everyone was doing their own thing and being orderly, so he walked outside the courtyard and said in a deep voice: "Feiyu, come out." ”

After a while, he saw a young man reluctantly coming out of the bamboo forest dressed in the same black folds as Yu Linlang, approached and hugged Lu Sheng and said, "I've seen General Lu......"

Naturally, it's the mallard.

Seeing his reluctance, Lu Sheng couldn't help but smile and said in a low voice: "The matter is urgent, you can stay by my side, if there is anything, you have to discuss." ”

Ling Hu Feiyu lowered his eyelids and thought for a moment, then nodded slowly, pointed to the western sky, and asked, "The general wants to ask about the origin of those birds?" ”

Lu Sheng followed where he was pointing, and saw that the scarlet stars in the sky were obscured by dark clouds, which were moving extremely fast and were approaching the village. He immediately shouted: "All the people are in the house to be on guard!" ”

The guards were still ignorant, and only after getting a hint did they find that there was an abnormality in the sky, and the crow flock was already fierce and difficult to deal with with only a few dozen of them, and now there are thousands of people in this formation, where are the twenty Yu Lin Lang opponents? Immediately the people were ordered to rush into the courtyard and the houses.

Lu Sheng said again: "Commander Bai, send two people with fast feet to the ancestral hall and camp to inform them, you must not face the enemy head-on, fight in a group, and guard the doors and windows!" ”

The white commanders understood it, and each sent people to rush to two places.

Everyone rushed again, dismantling the doors and windows in the courtyard, carrying wooden stakes and bamboo poles, and blocking the doors and windows of the central hall house solidly.

Lu Sheng took advantage of the gap to introduce Linghu Feiyu to Commander Bai and several subordinates, only saying that this person was a subordinate of his Qingming Administration, and had practiced with the Taoist Master in the Dustless Temple, so he asked about the origin of his crow.

Linghu Feiyu said: "This demon looks like a crow, but it is actually some shapeless ghost car. ”

Lu Sheng heard the word ghost car as if he was familiar, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "What the hell is a ghost car?" ”

Commander Bai said: "General Lu, I have heard of the humble position, the ghost car is covered with fur for birds, and the hair is shed for women, often disguised as adults, and abducted children from the world for food. It's just that the strange force is confused, and the gentleman is silent. Unexpectedly...... Is there such a thing in the world? ”

Bai Tongling's tone was naturally skeptical, but Lu Sheng suddenly remembered the past - when Xie Ying fell asleep, he accompanied him, and when he woke up, he saw the young Xie Ying, who was harassed by a ghost car. Then in a big battle in the temple of sending his son, he killed many ghost cars, and now it can be regarded as a narrow road encounter.

Based on this, it can be inferred that the initiators of these unformed ghost cars should be one of the guardian gods of the Pure Industry Sect, named the Emperor Mother of the Lotus River, who is actually the god of the ghost son and mother - the evil ghost.

Lu Sheng exhaled a long breath, and finally sorted out his thoughts, the truth came out, and he had a plan in his heart.

Seeing that his expression was stable, Commander Bai moved in his heart and asked, "General, do you have a countermeasure?" ”

Lu Sheng said: "There is no good plan yet. ”

Commander Bai was extremely disappointed, but he heard Lu Sheng point to the window facing west and say, "Open." ”

Although the guards were puzzled, they still did as they said and removed the protection from the window. This family is also considered a wealthy family in the village, and the main house is made of brick and stone, which is wide and sturdy, and is used for defense, which is naturally better than the straw plaster wall of ordinary farmers' houses.

But the windows in the wall were as narrow as ever, and now they were half open, but they were more than a foot wide, and in the size of the crows, they could penetrate at most three at a time.

Lu Sheng said: "Although that monster is bloodthirsty and brutal, fortunately, it is still small in size, and it only relies on numbers to win. Now open a window to allow those monsters to enter, and naturally come in as many as they want, and slaughter as many as they want. ”

Commander Bai said happily: "The general's clever plan! ”

So they arranged for men to guard the window, and before they could divide the teams to guard in shifts, the sound of wings flapping suddenly came close like a crackling torrential rain, and the birds were already pressed down, and while screaming sharply, they surrounded the peasant house. The neighing was deafening, and the house shook faintly, as if there was nothing else between heaven and earth.

The corpses that had been burned in the open space outside were also dragged out of the fire, and dozens of crows were picking and choosing among the charred flesh and meat, and they were still hungry for the remnants of the raw flesh.

Soon a crow discovered the only entrance, and the crows scrambled to get inside.

Commander Bai said solemnly: "It's coming!" ”

The guards guarding the entrance of the cave each held bamboo baskets and barrels, and the invading red-eyed blackbird was caught before it could emerge, and then his companions raised their knives and cut these flat-haired demons in half.

In this way, two people catch birds, two people kill birds, and two other people make up for the leaks, if they are tired, they will take another shift, and they will kill smoothly for a while, and the bird corpses in the house will be piled up into a hill.

Lu Sheng saw that everyone was safe and sound for the time being, but he didn't dare to relax, and still continued to ask: "Feiyu, what can you do?" ”

Linghu Feiyu said: "Capture the thief and capture the king, otherwise you will not be able to kill you." ”

Lu Sheng said: "I naturally save ...... It's just that the leader of the ghost car is not here, so he needs to hold out until dawn and then look for the leader's traces. I have killed that leader once, and I can naturally kill her a second time, but I must first try to solve the current crisis. ”

Linghu Feiyu crossed his arms and snorted: "The general's plan is effective, not to mention that there are many of us, guarding the window, taking turns to kill, and it will not be a problem to survive until dawn." If there are too many bird carcasses, dig a pit in the ear room and burn it. ”

Lu Sheng frowned and said, "There are still two thousand Yulin troops and the people of Sanhezhuang outside, how can I keep hiding?" Is there any way to dispel the ghost car in one fell swoop? ”

Linghu Feiyu choked, and looked Lu Sheng up and down in amazement.

In the minds of the demons of Dawangzhuang, Lu Sheng had already been stamped with "Mrs. Xie", and when Lu Sheng was mentioned, the preconceived idea was "the one in Mr. Xie's family", and it was to respect Lu Sheng, all because of respecting Mr. Xie.

Even though Linghu Feiyu had been cut off by Lu Sheng at the beginning, the only thing he was afraid of was "The hanging pot sword that Mr. Xie gave to Mrs., Mrs. Xie will use it to cut me indiscriminately, what should I do?" ", not because he was afraid of Lu Sheng himself.

Lu Sheng is just a shadow attached to Mr. Xie, and what his temperament and intentions are, the demons of Dawangzhuang have not paid much attention to it.

Linghu Feiyu saw how he lost his soul after leaving Xie Ying, as if he had no backbone, and naturally became more and more convinced that "Mrs. Xie is useless without Mr. Xie and cannot become a climate".

Now this "Mrs. Xie", who has a vague face and a thin sense of existence, suddenly wants to come forward and turn the tide, so that Linghu Feiyu has some real feelings such as "This is a soldier of the Great Jin Dynasty, who has experienced hardships, and now has two thousand elites under his command, shouldering heavy responsibilities, and cannot be underestimated".

Lu Sheng saw that he was stunned, and urged: "Flying feather? ”

Linghu Feiyu came back to his senses and said, "I'...... The subordinates were ashamed, they didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, and they couldn't think of a good way to retreat from the enemy. If yes, if Mr. Xie is there......"

Lu Sheng's face sank, and he couldn't hold back his anger in the end, and only said coldly: "Without Mr. Xie, the Great Jin is still the Great Jin of the people of the world." ”

How about Dajin, how about the people in the world, how did Mr. Xie ever take it to heart? Without Mr. Xie, how can the people fall, but how will Mrs. Xie be treated? Ling Hu Feiyu thought so in his heart, and naturally he didn't dare to refute it in his mouth, so he had to clench his fists and respond: "Let me, let my subordinates think about it again......"

Lu Sheng was anxiously pacing in the room, and Commander Bai was also racking his brains and muttering, "Since the corpse can be burned, why not attack it with fire?" ”

Linghu Feiyu shook his head: "After death, the demon power will collapse, and it will naturally be burned." The ghost car is a yin and evil monster condensed by resentment, and it is not afraid of ordinary flames, unless it finds something that is supreme to the yang, such as lightning strike wood, samadhi true fire, etc., it can be restrained...... Where to find it now? ”

When the situation was stalemate, the cacophony of birds chirping outside the window suddenly disappeared, and even the crows that rushed into the window were nowhere to be seen, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to respond. One of the guards put his ear to the door and listened carefully, and said in shock: "Oh no, those monsters are going to the village!" ”
