After listening to his father's words, it seemed that there was no way to eat outside, Wang Mu simply made some food for his father, and with the small wine he brought, the two of them were also very happy.

After eating, Wang Mu asked his father while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks: "The people in the village should still be on the mountain at this time, right?" ”

The father nodded and said, "Yes, there are a lot of policemen in the county, plus the men in the village, who are there in shifts for twenty hours a day, and I don't have to go because I am not in good health." ”

Wang Mu put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and said, "Then I'll go and see now, maybe I can help something." ”

But my father said, "What can you do, it's enough for so many people to be there and keep watch." ”

What Wang Mu thought in his heart was: If there are really monsters to haunt them, what is the use of having more people! As a Taoist, you should protect the safety of the villagers at this time.

He smiled and comforted his father, "It's okay, I'm just going to take a look." So he took a piece of clothing and ran out, afraid that his father would stop him.

After running a long way, Wang Mu took out the pockets of his clothes, made sure that there were still a few charms in them, and then quickly ran towards the back mountain.

The back mountain is not big, and there is a small river in front of the mountain, which is also the origin of the name of this Xiahe village.

At the bottom of the mountain, you can faintly see the sporadic lights on the mountain.

Wang Mu trotted all the way to the mountainside, where several tents of various sizes had been set up at this time, and it seemed that this time the police and the villagers were determined to catch the murderer.

Seeing Wang Mu coming back, many enthusiastic villagers rushed up to say hello, and Wang Mu was still a little embarrassed.

There is only one person who is still sitting in place and does not get up, that person is named Wang Jiayao, and Wang Mu grew up together since childhood, Wang Mu was admitted to Da Ah Yao, and the fight was also because he stood up for Wang Mu.

Every time he saw Ah Yao, Wang Mu felt indescribable guilt in his heart, he walked to Ah Yao's side, took out a cigarette and handed it over, but Ah Yao waved his hand and refused: "We countrymen are not blessed with good smoke in the city, and this dry tobacco is still smoking." With that, he got up and took out his roll of dry tobacco from his coat pocket and smoked quietly.

Wang Mu had no choice but to get up and continue to have a family affair with the seven uncles and eight uncles.

Although it was only September, the night on the mountain was still very cold. By midnight, most of the people in the village had gone home, and only seven or eight young people, two of whom were police officers from the town, were still sitting together smoking and chatting.

Of course, Ah Yao, who likes to be alone, still sat on the side and smoked a cigarette, lowering his head and looking at the cattle slaughtering knife in his hand by the dim light.

Ah Yao's family has been selling meat for a living for generations, so he has been in good health since he was a child, and Wang Mu is thin and small, and he is bullied by his classmates at school. Ah Yao has lost his mother since he was a child, and his father was also angry and fell seriously ill because he was expelled for fighting, and he passed away after a few years as if he had an accident. Now that the state prohibits private slaughtering, Ah Yao has also cut off his financial path as a butcher, and can only work as coolies in the brick factory and construction site in the village.

Seeing this, Wang Mu stepped forward and said, "If you are sleepy, go back to the tent and sleep for a while, and let me keep vigil tonight." ”

When everyone heard this, this was exactly what they meant, but they still had to say politely: "Can you be alone?" ”

Wang Mu smiled indifferently and said, "Yes, you guys go to sleep." ”

One by one, they yawned and walked into the tents, and within a few minutes there was a snoring sound.

By the fire, Ah Yao still didn't get up, and Wang Mu said to him, "Ah Yao, you should go in and sleep too." ”

Ah Yao shook his head, Wang Mu knew that Ah Yao had a stubborn temper, so he no longer demanded it.

Time passed minute by minute, there was still no movement nearby, and Wang Mu became more and more curious about the identity of this murderer.

Suddenly, a scream rang out from the tent not far away, followed by a shrill burst of strange laughter.

Wang Muxin said: "Oops, something happened!" He hurriedly got up and ran to the accident site, and Ah Yao followed closely behind.

Wang Mu cautiously lifted the tent, and a cloud of black gas quickly flew out of it, Wang Mu shouted to Ah Yao: "You keep an eye here first, I'll chase after you!" ”

After saying that, Wang Mu followed the direction of the black qi and ran over, until he was sure that he was out of everyone's sight.

Sure that no one would see it again, Wang Mu hurriedly took out a tracking charm from his waist, and silently recited a spell in his mouth, the charm flew up in the air, tracking towards the black shadow, and Wang Mu followed closely behind the tracking charm.

At the beginning, Wang Mu could still see the mountain road clearly by the moonlight, but the further he ran, the more the miasma in the mountain became heavier and heavier, and Wang Mu felt a little suffocated before he stopped tracking.

The black shadow also stopped in front of him, a pair of green eyes shining an eerie light in the darkness.

Wang Mu and the pair of ghost eyes looked at each other, neither side dared to make a big move, Wang Mu put his hand behind him, and touched the last yang talisman left on his waist.

Yang talisman can be described as omnipotent, all demons and evil things, this talisman can cause some damage, is to attack by the yang qi between heaven and earth, but it is also the most closely related to the talisman of the person who draws the talisman himself, the higher the person who draws the talisman, the more yang energy is condensed. Xiang Wang Mu, who is new to the Dao Gate, the power of the Yang Fu is very small.

Wang Mu condensed the true qi between his fingers behind him and ignited the yang talisman, and threw it towards the ghost eye, the ghost thing didn't seem to know the yang talisman, and did not dodge, the yang talisman hit the monster, and a howl that resounded through the valley shook Wang Mu's ears buzzing.

The ghost thing seemed to be crazy and rushed towards Wang Mu, breaking through the miasma, the monster gradually came to the front, and Wang Mu finally saw the true face of the ghost thing - this thing has a pig body and a civet head, with two heads in front and back, the head has sharp horns, and the eyes are green.

Knowing that he had angered this guy, Wang Mu didn't dare to slack off, and jumped on his knees, and there was about a meter, he wanted to jump on the back of the monster, but who knew that the monster still had the ability to run the ground, and he disappeared when he drilled his head down.

Wang Mu looked around vigilantly to prevent the monster from suddenly coming out to make a sneak attack.

But Wang Mu only looked around, but ignored the land standing under his feet, only felt that the ground was slightly raised, and when he reacted, he had been knocked into the air by the monster that came out of his feet.

Seeing the monster waiting for him below, Wang Mu couldn't do anything but watch himself slowly fall onto the monster's sharp horns.

Suddenly, a loud shout made the monster take a few steps back, and Wang Mu fell to the ground, although it hurt a little, but it was much better than being pierced in the heart.

Looking at the sound, in the thick miasma, a person with a sharp knife in his hand, burly, looked carefully, it turned out that Ah Yao came with a pig-killing knife.

Wang Mu shouted: "Ah Yao, be careful, this thing is not easy to deal with. ”

Ah Yao didn't answer, and rushed up with a knife......
