Over the campfire, the bandits' chatter continued.

"Who told you that I was going to bet on all the women?" The mountain monkey laughed, "I want to bet, but ······"

The mountain monkey's voice paused, and the surrounding bandits thought that he was deliberately selling Guanzi, including the small leader, they all showed dissatisfied expressions, but everyone has been waiting for so long, you mountain monkey is still selling Guanzi now, what kind of brother is this?

So the bandits were about to coax, but the mountain monkey's voice trembled a little, and he stretched out his hand and pointed ahead: "Look at that······ What is that? ”

The bandits were stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the mountain monkey's finger, and everyone's pupils widened in an instant. In the cold mountain wind, in the boundless darkness, there is a spark constantly fluttering, like a red lotus petal floating from the sky, high and low, bright and dark, swaying from side to side, the darkness it touches, sometimes retreating, sometimes becoming more and more thick. And this spark gradually changed color, originally red, but now it was faintly green under everyone's gaze, and it was getting closer and closer.

"Ghost, it's ghost fire! Everyone, run, it's a ghost fire, this thing is deadly! I don't know who was the first to shout in panic, and the bandits around the entire campfire were suddenly in chaos. Everyone eats in the mountains, and the most taboo is this ghost and god theory.

After all, there are still a lot of unknown things hidden in the mountains, and it is even possible to kill people without blinking an eye, especially in this era, tools and scientific ideas are in the primitive stage, so often all kinds of accidents will be attributed to ghosts and gods, and many times this ghost fire is the punishment brought by the mountain god, and all those who are stained by the ghost fire will be turned into ashes and die without a place to bury.

Soon the bandits on the entire hillside were in a mess, for they noticed that not only this faint ghost fire, but also green flames appeared in several other directions, fluttering up and down.

"Everyone, run, ghost, the mountain god is angry, it's a ghost!" There was another shout, and one of the bandits fell to the ground, and even the bandit leaders could not restrain their men. In the presence of ghosts and gods, their binding power is as thin as paper.

After all, these thieves have done a lot of bad things over the years, and in the face of the wrath of the ghosts and gods, it is impossible to say that they are not afraid. Even several of the leaders turned pale. Although they know more or less that ghost fire can't actually cause much harm to people, but in the face of this sudden flame in the dark, who still has the heart to calm down and think, in the final analysis, they are also human, and people always have something to fear.

What's more important is that the general ghost fire is not very big, and the ghost fire presented in front of you is not only erratic, but also much more than the ghost fire in the impression - even a few leaders who have traveled south and north and have walked through the night road have never seen such a big ghost fire - not to mention that everyone can see clearly during the day, there are no graves around, where did the ghost fire come from?

Then there is only one possibility left, and that is the wrath of the mountain god!

The leaders no longer have the strength to restrain their subordinates, but are just being swept by the flow of people and running in the only direction where there is no ghost fire, and the farther they run, the better. Not to mention sending a few people over to see what was going on, these bandits didn't even have the courage to take a step in the direction of the ghost fire.

"I didn't expect this thing to be really messy and real." Li Qiu couldn't help but sigh with emotion, looking at the few copper bars in his hand, in order to cut and polish these copper bars, but it took a lot of effort for the women and children in the village, if it wasn't for Li Xinchen's insistence on polishing, no one would have done this kind of work of grinding needles with an iron pestle when the war came.

And it turned out that Li Xinchen's insistence was correct, no one thought that these copper bars were thrown directly into the fire, and the entire flame turned green, and it really felt like a ghost fire. If they hadn't been mentally prepared a long time ago, I'm afraid Li Qiu would have to run with them.

Li Xinchen, who was hiding in the dark, opened his mouth and didn't say anything, he didn't expect that he would scare people like this with three fires, but when he thought of this era, it could be regarded as frequent wars and people's wisdom, so there was nothing to be surprised about. Not to mention this era, even if it is placed in the Sui and Tang dynasties a hundred years later or even the Ming and Qing dynasties a thousand years later, it can still scare many people.

In fact, this is very simple, it is to rely on the flame color reaction, in the time and space before Li Xinchen travels, this is the knowledge that will be learned in high school. Copper turns green when burned in a fire, and it naturally has the feeling of ghost fire.

Of course, Li Xinchen also has some regrets, if the copper strip can be ground into copper powder or cut into smaller copper pieces, the effect should be better, and now no matter how you look at it, it is a little incomplete. But that's enough.

"Brother Chen, what should we do?" Li Qiu walked to Li Xinchen's side in a trance, obviously he was also completely shocked by the scene just now, if he hadn't created this ghost fire with his own hands, I'm afraid Li Qiu would have run away without a trace like those bandits.

"Let's keep up, these bandits are going directly to the trap set up by Zheng Qing, I hope Zheng Qing will not disappoint him." Li Xinchen took a light breath, and the icy mountain wind rolled down his throat into his lungs, allowing Li Xinchen to calm down as much as possible.

In the final analysis, he was at most a theorist who had read a few books before he crossed over, and at this moment, in this dark mountain forest, seeing that the first step he had planned was finally successful, Li Xinchen's heart was also hot, so he had to calm himself, even if it was forced.

At that moment, a scream was heard in the darkness in the distance, followed by the sound of panicked footsteps. A few green flames burned faintly in the darkness, like hellfire, driving people away to darker, deeper places in the distance.

It's just that they don't know that the darker place is the most dangerous place.

——————————-

Zhang Er stood there stupidly, just now a row of bamboos falling from the sky stuck the two people in front of him on the ground, and there was also a guy behind him who stepped into the trap and disappeared, just now I could hear a miserable shout, and now there is no sound at all.

The mountain wind blew through Zhang Er's clothes, making him shiver subconsciously, and then he clearly realized that the brothers in front and behind him had died cleanly. And in the darkness the footsteps were confused, and I don't know how many people came in this direction recklessly.

"Poof!" Before Zhang Er could speak, another unlucky ghost fell directly into the trap. No one knows how many traps there are around, let alone what they are, but Zhang Er can already judge that they have given their lives based on the fact that most of them have not moved after they fell in, which also makes Zhang Er have no courage to raise his feet and walk forward.
