The earth, engulfed in white.

When the night swallowed up the last rays of light, the glow of the spirit lamp illuminated the dark village in front of them.

A decay.

In the village, perhaps where the martial arts tree is located, only deep pits remain, perhaps broken by powerful monstrities, or human beings themselves.

In the desolate deserted village, Natsuki hung the spirit lamp on the dry branches of the glowing trees outside the house. Scared away a few crows that roosted again.

"Okay, let's sleep here tonight."

Natsuki looked at the house, although there was a lot of dust, but at least it was very strong, and he didn't have to worry about being crushed by the snow in the middle of his sleep.

took out a town house talisman and wanted to paste it, but it burned in an instant, and at the same time there was a scream in my ears.

A purple aura of concentration emanated from Bai Bai's eyes, but the white shadow flashed, and Bai Bai burped on Natsuki's shoulder, and then fell asleep in his arms.

He is still in the metamorphosis period, and he is awake for no more than two hours a day.

Natsuki didn't care which unlucky ghost hit the muzzle, and after accepting a few lollipops rewarded by the system, he took out one and filled it into his mouth, feeling the taste of the sugar slowly melting on the tip of his tongue, and the fatigue accumulated by the journey seemed to disappear.

He had cleared all the lollipops before he came, so he didn't have much stock now, and he couldn't eat three in one bite like he used to.

After the ghosts in the house were killed, the whole village seemed to wake up, and from time to time there was a screeching sound passing by the window. Natsuki didn't pay much attention to it, the deserted village of humans seemed to be the favorite abode of the ghosts, and there were too many unjust souls who had died here, and he had seen a lot along the way.

At the beginning, he also wanted to kill demons and eliminate demons, of course, mainly to supplement his chivalrous value, but then he found that these ghosts were too difficult, and after nightfall, the village completely became a ghost, which was naturally suitable for them to hide, and Natsuki was afraid that his lion's roar would attract more powerful ghosts, so he had to compromise.

The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, which is probably what it means.

Only tonight, it is not destined to be peaceful.

The sound of horses' hooves shattered the eerie calm formed by the ghost's roar.

Outside the village, a group of people broke in. They held spiritual lamps in their hands, and the dragon scales under their crotches immediately hung sabers.

"Big brother, there seems to be someone in the village."

They soon discovered the glow of the spirit lamp.

"Someone? No way, this village was abandoned three years ago, and ghosts often come out to harm people, and since then, the people around me have not dared to come here. A young man in Tsing Yi next to him said.

"Big brother, it's a spirit lamp, it's not like a trick of monsters."

"Let's go, let's take a look."

"Heroes, don't forget the rules that are treacherous, let's change places, if not, we can camp at the edge of this village."

"It's freezing in the cold, if we camp in the outside world, won't we become a living target for those ghosts? Although there are many strange people in the village, so many of us are full of blood and blood, and ordinary ghosts are scared away. ”

Without waiting for him to refuse, the group rode to the small courtyard where Xia Mu was.

Some riders tried to break down the door, but were stopped by their boss. He said loudly: "Dongqiancheng Guan and his brothers passed through here, and the road was difficult at night, so they forgot to borrow a precious place to rest, and they hoped for permission." ”

These people had already noticed it before they got close to Xia Mu, but they didn't know why they looked at their own small courtyard, Xia Mu didn't feel malicious and said:

"I'm also a traveler passing through here, so please come in."

A group of people came into the yard and tied the horses to the side house, which was built by the big family in the village, and was very spacious. A dozen people coming in wasn't too crowded.

As soon as I entered the house, a strong fragrance came to my face.

The group saw a young man in a cloth shirt leaning against the fire, with a long sword beside him, as if he was holding something in his mouth, and leaning on the fire against a piece of meat, which was dripping oil.

Several swordsmen swallowed in unison.

They showed extreme restraint, and after saluting Natsuki, one of them took out a compass from his package and walked around the room, then nodded towards Guan Xin.

"Big brother, there are no ghosts."

Guan Xin frowned, "Didn't find anything?" ”

"No, not even the slightest yin qi is gone, the breath is extremely smooth, if it is not located in a deserted village, it must be a house with good feng shui."

It's weird, but Guan Xin didn't dig into the reason. Many of the weirdness in the wild is difficult to explain.

A group of people find a place to sit in a circle.

He cut down a few thick branches from the dead tree at the door and used them as firewood, and a fire was burned.

Another swordsman took a loaf out of the package, distributed it to each other, and roasted it in the fire. It's just that the smell of meat on the wings of the nose makes this cake difficult to swallow.

All this Xia Mu didn't realize.

Guan Xin was a little surprised by the composure of the young man, he looked like a simple young man on the outside, and the clothes on his body were not very luxurious, but they were very pleasing to the eye.

"Little brother, why do you stay here alone overnight? What about your companions? ”

"I have something to go to Dongqianshan to find someone, and as for my companion, I'm the only one."

Dongganshan. Guan Xin was a little surprised, and he dared to rush alone, either he was stunned or he was bold, or he didn't know what kind of teenager he was.

Guan Xin didn't continue to ask, whether his purpose was Dongqianshan or not, it had nothing to do with him, he walked the rivers and lakes all the year round, and he knew that those who were curious had gone to see the king of Hades.

The meat was quickly cooked, and Natsuki didn't know where to take out a knife, cut off a small piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, feeling the aroma of the meat blooming on the tip of his tongue, and nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing that Xia Mu was kind, the group instigated a swordsman to come to Xia Mu to buy meat.

"Young man, I have some copper leaves here, can you sell us some meat?"

Xia Mu smiled: "You can't afford my meat." ”

The swordsman looked at Xia Mu's dress, cotton clothes, although he looked dusty, but not gorgeous, and the swords around him did not look like valuable things. In short, it doesn't look like it's very rich.

He thought that Xia Mu was just excused, so he said:

"You just have to make an offer, although we are swordsmen, we still have the money to buy some meat."

"Okay." Xia Mu was helpless, cut off a small piece and said, "This piece, three gold leaves." ”

The swordsman was furious when he heard this, "What! Are you lying to me? This is not dragon meat, and it actually asks me for three gold leaves? ”

Natsuki sighed, this is really dragon meat.

"Black bear!" Guan Xin scolded, "It's people's freedom to sell or not, don't be noisy!" ”。

"Big brother...... I'm not, it's just that this person is really annoying, and if he doesn't want to sell it, he just says it, and it's not refreshing at all. ”
