After Zhang Heng got out of the carriage, he shook his arm, and then walked into the crowd to listen to their chat.

At this time, many people also gathered around and chatted very seriously.

"I heard that the mountain road over there is haunted, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"Of course it's true, as soon as the night comes, the ghost fire comes out, and the sneaky begins to wander around."

"I've also heard that many businessmen have died on mountain roads."

"Now as long as it gets dark, no one dares to walk at night."

After listening to it for a while, Zhang Heng also understood why there were so many people here.

At this moment, a person dressed as a scholar walked out and said to everyone: "Everyone, now that the ghost fire is infested, it means that we must have offended the mountain god grandfather, as long as we honor the mountain god grandfather, it will definitely be fine in the future, what do you think?" ”

"yes, I think so."

As soon as these words came out, many people also echoed them.

"Since everyone agrees, let's prepare something tonight and go to worship the mountain god."

Cui Xian stood up and raised his arms and shouted.

Zhang Heng also shook his head in this regard, thinking that feudal superstition is unacceptable!

Tie Shan walked over and said to him: "Young master, the post station is already full, don't talk about living now, you can't even enter, and you don't even have a place to stay." ”

Zhang Heng waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's the same if you live outside, but tonight should be very lively, and it won't be boring." ”

Tie Shan echoed and said, "That kid is a scholar anyway, and he actually believes in ghosts and gods. ”

Zhang Heng glanced at him and said, "You don't believe in ghosts and gods? ”

"I believe it, but they who read books have always scoffed at this, and I thought they didn't believe it."

Tie Shan replied intently.

"Then clean up! We also went to see the excitement in the evening. ”

Zhang Heng advised, he wanted to see what lively and beautiful things could be seen at night.

Then he went to the side to accompany Master Li.

At this time, Master Li picked a flower on the side of the road, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and then said, "It's still more fragrant than the flowers outside!" ”

Zhang Heng smiled and put his arm around her shoulders and said, "In the future, if you want to come out to see the flowers, you can come out, and I will accompany you." ”

Master Li nodded and leaned on his shoulder, such a scene used to only exist in dreams, but now it is immersive.

As night fell, there was a deep silence all around, and even the sounds of insects and birds disappeared without a trace.

"Let's go, follow me to worship the mountain god."

At this time, Cui Xian also led everyone to set off.

Zhang Heng also took Master Li and others to follow the crowd.

After walking for a while, the group came to the mountain pass, and at the same time, there were many green flames floating around the intersection.

"Ghost fire, a lot of ghost fire."

When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but shout.

"Everyone, hurry up and take out something to worship the mountain god."

Cui Xian also took out something and put it on the ground.

Immediately, many people also took out all kinds of food and put them on the ground, and then knelt on the ground and began to kowtow.

And Tie Shan also knelt on the ground and prayed, with a pious face.

Master Li also showed a trace of fear on his face at this moment, looked at Zhang Heng and said, "These ghost fires are really terrifying, they can't really offend the mountain god!" ”

Zhang Hengxing smiled and said, "That ghost fire, also called phosphorus fire, is produced by bones buried in the ground for a long time, so it is not a ghost fire. ”

"I see"

Hearing this, Master Li's face also looked a lot better.

But then she immediately thought of a question, and said, "Isn't there a lot of people buried in the ground?" ”

Zhang Heng nodded and said, "So to speak. ”

Master Li patted his chest and said, "This is still quite scary. ”

At this time, Cui Xian was leading everyone to kneel and worship, as if there was really such a thing.

"If you want to cross this road safely, you have to leave behind your most precious things."

At this moment, a hoarse voice suddenly came from the shadows.

"Who is it?"

When they heard this, their faces also darkened, and their eyes were full of fear.

But at this time, Cui Xian yelled: "It's the mountain god, the mountain god has appeared." ”

Immediately after that, everyone hurriedly kowtowed.

At this time, Cui Xian opened his mouth and asked, "Lord Mountain God, I don't know what you want, just mention it." ”

"If you want to live forever, you have to leave behind your most valuable and precious things."

The gloomy voice rang out again.

"Hurry up and get the valuables! I just have the money. ”

"I have a jade ring."

"Don't be stunned, both of you, hurry up and get the most valuable things."

Zhang Heng saw Cui Xian shouting at the two of them, and ignored it directly.

At this time, Cui Xian came over and said, "Why don't you take out the things and anger the mountain god?" ”

Zhang Heng sneered, put his hands on his chest, and said: "This is obviously someone pretending to be a ghost, you won't be unable to see it!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, an old lady looked at him and said, "Young man, don't talk nonsense, there are gods three feet above your head, and the gods will hear you when you say this." ”

Zhang Heng spread his hands and said, "If the gods are blackmailing us, don't want this kind of gods." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge flame suddenly appeared from the mountain, and at the same time, there was a loud bang.

"Grandpa Mountain God is angry, Grandpa Mountain God spares his life!"

Seeing this scene, everyone also begged for mercy and threw out all the valuable things.

"None of these are valuable things"

A gloomy voice rang out.

At this time, Cui Xian said with a pious face: "Lord Mountain God, may I ask what you want." ”

"The girl standing at the back"

As soon as the words fell, everyone turned their heads to look back.

Master Li looked at all the people and looked over, and hurriedly took a few steps back, saying, "What are you looking at me for?" ”

Cui Xian walked up and said, "Lord Mountain God has taken a fancy to you, that's your honor, you should feel lucky." ”

At this time, Zhang Heng walked up, slapped him on the head, and said, "Get out of the way." ”

"Look, everyone, he wants to disobey the will of the mountain god."

Cui Xian also shouted at everyone.

"Yes, give her to the mountain god, or we'll all be unlucky."

Others chimed in.

Zhang Heng now saw that the situation was a little wrong, and the people around him seemed to be sure of this mountain god, so he said: "If I can prove that this mountain god is fake, what do you think?" ”

Cui Xian immediately stood up and said, "Impossible, how can the mountain god be fake." ”

Zhang Heng looked at him and smiled, and said, "I'll let you know what's true and what's fake now." ”

Then he walked to Tie Shan's side and muttered a few words in Tie Shan's ear.
