Chapter Seventy-Two: The Mountain

At that time, Chu Yun'er woke up from a dream, the second master was not in the house, he went out at the end of the day, and told Chu Yun'er to rest well when he left, and he would return in a moment, but now two hours have passed, Chu Yun'er is worried about turning over and over on the bed, and she can't sleep anymore, she simply got up and opened the window, waiting for the second master's figure to appear on the street.

At this time, it was getting late at night, the sky was like a sickle, and the lights in the town were scarce, as if shrouded in a black veil, hazy and mysterious.

There was occasionally a flash of lightning in the sky, and a large area of gray clouds was rolling like waves, such a scene made Chu Yun'er feel quite familiar, and a bad premonition surged in her heart, could it be that something happened to the second master? But I don't know if it's my own delusion.

When entering the town, Chu Yun'er had already carefully observed, this town was different from Meilin Town, which was bleak and lifeless, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, prosperous and happy, they had never offended anyone, but they didn't know what had stumped the second master.

It was close to midnight, the second master had not come back, everything was already asleep, and the silence outside the window was not even seen by the filarial insects, Chu Yun'er was sitting on the windowsill and was restless, and the inexplicable panic made her even more worried and uneasy, and she felt that the vision in the southwest must be related to the second master.

After thinking about it, she couldn't wait here any longer, she had to go and see, and in order to escape, she took all her luggage and brought the sleeping Ruby with her.

The door of the inn was closed, and inside the counter, the shopkeeper was dozing off with his head propped up, and suddenly opened his eyes and saw Chu Yun'er who was going down the stairs, he was quite surprised, and asked, "Girl, ...... this?"

"Boss, I have an urgent need to go out, if I don't return tomorrow morning, then the guest room doesn't need to be left for me"

"That's fine, it's late at night, girl, please be careful"

Chu Yun'er was so anxious that she only wanted to find the second master as soon as possible, and she didn't have time to respond to the shopkeeper, so she only nodded slightly and went straight to the door.

As she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered that she was unfamiliar with this place, and did not know where it was to the southwest, so she stopped and turned to the shopkeeper and asked, "I wonder what is the southwest outside the town."

"Southwest? To the southwest is the mountain, and there is a cliff on the mountain, which is exactly the southwest ......"

Without waiting for the innkeeper to finish speaking, Chu Yun'er stepped out of the inn, the horse was tied to the door of the inn, and when she climbed on the horse's back, Chu Yun'er threw a whip on the horse, and the horse was in pain, so she spread her hooves and galloped on the street, showing that Chu Yun'er fell off the horse.

The road leading to the mountain outside the town is quite wide, and there is some slight moonlight, and soon they arrived at the foot of the mountain, the trees on the mountain are lush, a narrow road twists and turns and circles up, the horse walks very slowly, the closer to the top of the mountain Chu Yun'er is more restless, and her intuition makes her sure that the second master must be here.

The field of vision gradually became broader, the scene on the top of the mountain came into view, a large number of trees seemed to have been destroyed by a storm, messy, among the empty weeds, the second master's hair was messy, surrounded by eight people in the middle, to be exact, four Taoist priests, four zombies, the ink line wrapped around the second master's arm, and the Taoist priest holding the ink line was rotating rapidly around the second master, trying to bind the second master's body.

The second master was wearing a gray robe given by Master Li, the ink line was particularly obvious when the shirt was torn, as if it was strangled into the body, and there was green smoke coming out, Chu Yun'er only felt that there were gold stars in her eyes, and the second master met the Taoist priest, and in a hurry, he jumped off the horse without waiting for the horse to stop completely
