Chu Huan smiled and asked, "Your Excellency, haven't you already seen the people from the village?" ”

The mask said: "Actually, the people in the village have moved away, and someone nearby has seen it. I happened to meet a few people who asked about it, but they also knew a little about it. ”

"Oh?" Chu Huan thought for a while and said, "I can make a fire over there at any time, it's a little cold outside, would Your Excellency be willing to go over and sit down?" By the way, we seem to have some dry food. ”

The masked man did not refuse, Chu Huan led the man back to the room where he rested, Sun Zikong and the others quickly lit a fire, the fire lit up, and the man's mask was seen more clearly, Chu Huan saw that the left eye under his mask was really a scar of the boss, it was really just one eye, but the light of the other eye was very sharp.

"I don't know your honorable name?" Sitting down by the fire, Chu Huan asked people to take dry food, handed one to the man, it was two cakes, the man was not polite, took it, and replied: "My surname is Qiu, you can call me Old Qiu!" ”

"Feud?" Chu Huanqi said: "This surname is really rare. He asked, "The villagers that Brother Qiu saw, did they say that the dog corpses on the trees were haunted by ghosts?" ”

"Not bad." The masked man's old enemy bowed slightly, "According to them, not long ago, many villages discovered strange things. ”

"Strange things?"

"Someone disappeared for no apparent reason." Lao Qiu said: "At the beginning, there was a village where two or three people suddenly suffered from a ghost ......! ”

"Dare to ask Brother Qiu, how can this ghost be explained?"

"It's demon-possessed." Lao Qiu said lightly: "Although I can walk, I don't speak, my eyes are blank, I do what others tell me to do, like sleepwalking, and when I sleep at night, I don't close my eyes...... In other words, they don't have to sleep. ”

Sun Zikong shuddered, "No need to sleep? ”

Old Qiu nodded and said, "That's good." Those people didn't meet their eyes for three or four days, like walking corpses, and they didn't say a word. ”

"And what happened?"

"If you can't rest, your body is naturally worse day by day." Old Qiu said slowly: "Even so, those people still don't sleep day and night. There is no way in the village, and they all think it is evil. Later, I found a Taoist priest to come, and when the Taoist priest saw it, he said that he was suffering from a nightmare, and those people had evil spirits possessed by ......! ”

Chu Huan smiled faintly and did not speak.

"When the villagers heard this, they were naturally afraid, and begged the Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts, and the Taoist priest had agreed, but when the Taoist priest had set up the law field, the villagers found that the men who had suffered from the devil's nightmare disappeared and lost their traces." Lao Qiu's voice was hoarse, in this dark night, it was quite weird, "The villagers looked around and couldn't find it, and at that time, a dead dog appeared in the village." ”

Chu Huan asked, "So they think the dead dog is related to ghosts?" ”

"The dogs used to watch the house in the village all died quietly, and the villagers only noticed that the dogs were missing at first, and soon found that the dogs in the village were hanging from the treetops." Lao Qiu said: "It is said that the villagers specially looked for the Taoist priest to calculate the matter, and after the Taoist priest calculated, he fled in a hurry, and the villagers caught up, and the Taoist priest claimed that it was a resentful spirit." ”

"Those villagers believe these nonsense?" Chu Huan sneered.

"Why don't they believe it?" Lao Qiu said: "Those dog corpses hanging on the treetops are not something that human beings can do. And those who have nightmares, how to explain it? He took a bite of the bread, "Soon after this happened, the same thing happened in other villages. One after another, the people of the village were caught in a series of nightmares, and then they soon disappeared, and the villagers said that they were all captured by the ghosts...... At first, it was just a rumor, but then someone saw a ghost appear. ”

Chu Huan frowned.

"In another village not far from here, there is a villager who has a nightmare and can't sleep day and night, because the other people who have been in the past will soon disappear, so this person's family is very careful and sends people to guard the side day and night." Lao Qiu said softly: "That night, this man's wife has been guarding by her side, and in the dead of night, she heard a strange sound, and then she saw her husband get up from the bed and walk out of the door like a ghost...... ”

Sun Zikong felt the hair on his body, close to Ma Zheng's side, Wu felt a little unsafe, and couldn't help but hold Ma Zheng's hand, Ma Zheng couldn't help but glance at him, saw Sun Zikong's eyes twitched, knew that he was afraid, let him grab his hand.

The woman didn't know what was going on, and she followed her husband out of the house. Although she was afraid, she did not dare to alarm her husband, according to the people here, if he was awakened while sleepwalking, his soul would leave the body, the woman only thought that her husband was sleepwalking, and did not dare to alarm, and when she went out of the house, the woman saw that not far from the door of her house, there was a shadow, the shadow was dressed in black, but he was holding a white banner in his hand......! ”

"White flags?" Chu Huan was also a little surprised when he heard this strange scene.

"Yes, the black shadow is holding a white banner in his hand, which is the white flag that is inserted in the grave after the person dies." Lao Qiu said calmly: "The woman was so frightened that she almost fainted, watching her husband approaching the ghost, the ghost holding a white flag, leading the way, the man and the ghost followed the ghost in a hurry, and walked farther and farther, the woman wanted to catch up, but she was so frightened that she couldn't move, and she couldn't even shout ...... sound!" ”

At this time, not only Sun Zikong's face was a little pale, but even Ma Zheng and Liu Suifeng's eyes also showed a slight hint of terror.

"It wasn't until the next day that the family found the woman lying in front of the door, and when she woke up, the woman told everyone what she had witnessed, and it quickly spread throughout the village, and the people in the village did not dare to stay any longer, and by the time they moved out of the village, more than a dozen people had disappeared from the village......!" Lao Qiu also took off the water bag on his waist and took a sip, "This kind of thing has happened in several villages one after another, and no one dares to live there, so they all move to other places one by one......!" ”

There was silence inside the house, and there was a cold wind outside the house, and after a while, Chu Huan asked, "Brother Qiu, do you know who the people who disappeared in the village?" ”

"Almost all of them are men." Old Qiu said: "Just in the prime of life." ”

Chu Huan touched his chin and said, "If it's really a ghost, why do they only take men?" The elderly, the weak, the women and the children, why didn't there be an accident? According to common sense, men in the prime of life have the heaviest yang energy on their bodies, and even ghosts will be afraid of three points. On the contrary, it is those old, weak, women and children, ghosts who may invade ......! ”

Old Qiu stared at Chu Huan and asked, "Your Excellency, do you think there is something strange in this room?" ”

Chu Huan thought for a moment and said, "I'm just very strange, why do those ghosts suddenly appear in various villages at such a time, and why do they only take men?" ”

"Brother Tai doesn't know if I've heard a word."

"What?"

"The heavens and the earth have changed, and the demons are dancing." Old Qiu said: "When there are changes in heaven and earth, hunger is everywhere, blood is pervasive, the universe is dislocated, the yang world is turbulent, and the ghost gate of the underworld will also be opened, and those powerful ghosts in the underworld will also take advantage of this time to enter the yang world from the ghost gate, and do evil in the yang, act recklessly, and dance wildly." ”

Chu Huan smiled and said, "Brother Tai believes such rumors? ”

"I don't believe it or not." Lao Qiu said lightly: "But the people here are already convinced of this. They have been privately circulated, the reason for the appearance of ghosts in the world is because there are going to be changes in the Great Qin River, the Qiankun is dislocated, and the current emperor is not even satisfied with the evil ghosts of the Yin World, they are closed from the ghost gate, it is to disturb the country of Great Qin, only when the country changes hands and the ghost gate is closed, the demons will fall into hell again......! ”

"Ridiculous words, not worth refuting." Chu Huan sneered: "What kind of evil ghost in the netherworld is nothing more than someone who wants to use this to cholera the hearts of the people and shake the country's foundation." ”

The old enemy let out an "oh" and said, "So, your Excellency doesn't believe such rumors?" Do you think someone is behind this? ”

"The treetop hook is naturally very unusual for ordinary people." Chu Huan said: "But in this world, no one may be able to do it. Brother Qiu is a martial artist, and he should know that as long as he has a good light skill, it is not very difficult to do that. ”

Lao Qiu nodded and said: "Although the words are good, but such light skills are rare, and they need to be extremely light masters." If it is really artificial, with their efforts, they can do bigger things, why do they pretend to be ghosts and do things to a few villages? And the villagers have a nightmare, how to explain it? He took a sip of water, "Your Excellency will easily convince me, but the people may not believe your words. Such rumors have begun to spread in Anyi Road, you must know that people's words are terrifying, and the worries of the people are worse than those of Sichuan, as soon as this mouth opens, it will not take long for the rumors to spread widely, if there are these bizarre things happening in Anyi, then the people will be convinced of the rumors of the troubled times of the demons......! ”

Chu Huan's brows furrowed, this thing looked weird, and it didn't seem to be a big deal, but if these rumors spread around, Anyi would most likely fall into turmoil.

The most important thing is that now that the Anyi Huang family has rebelled, Huang Tianyi supports the troops and confronts the officers and soldiers in Yusuohu, the Huang family's power and influence in Anyi cannot easily disappear, if the Huang family uses such a message to encourage the people, the situation in Anyi is only afraid that there will be greater changes, Chu Huan looked out the window, the night was dark and the wind was high, he couldn't help but think, these strange things happened in these villages, could it really be that Huang Tianyi sent people to pretend to be gods and ghosts everywhere in Anyi to confuse the people's hearts, right?

"This kind of thing, we can't manage it if we want to." Chu Huan sighed and said with a smile: "I just hope we don't meet those ghosts." By the way, Brother Qiu is also running all the way, I don't know where to go? ”

"Find someone." Lao Qiu picked up the coarse linen package beside him, "Find a friend, I owe him something, I have traveled to the ends of the earth, I will also find him and return the things to him." He got up, picked up the coarse cloth package, walked straight to the door, turned around, glanced at Chu Huan, and saw that Chu Huan was also looking at him, the two looked at each other, but did not speak, Lao Qiu turned around, left the house, and disappeared into the darkness.
