Chapter 22: Don't Enter the Tiger's Den

Daddy Ma said it very tragically, and the little carpenter was a little silent.

It is true that after death, people turn into zombies and other dead things, with no sense, no emotion, no soul left in it, and they are manipulated by others...... This is nothing to the dead, after all, everything is over.

But for the living, it is very difficult to accept.

After all, it is really a torment for you to watch your former friends, relatives and lovers turn into such ghosts, turn around and raise the butcher knife at you.

The little carpenter couldn't help but think of Cheng Hanlai of the Yucheng Robe Brotherhood, he also fell into the secret method, and became an immortal state, although the spirit is still there, and he is free to move, but the nature of the whole person has changed, the five senses have subsided, and the food that mortals regard as delicacies is like a dung maggot, and he is hungry for bloody raw meat and rotten meat.

The constant struggle between instinct and reason made Cheng Han fall into a state of near collapse.

And now, in this northeastern land, he has seen something similar again, but this one is even more domineering, making countless living dead......

After listening to the explanation of the Ma family's father and daughter, the little carpenter sighed, and then said, "Okay, I know." ”

Father Ma handed back the letterhead and said, "Two, you and the others, if you need to wait and don't dislike it, you should stay here in Futun for a few days now, and wait for people to come back." I'll ask the four girls to clean up a few rooms for you to stay. Or you can go back to the town first, and when the master comes back, I'll tell him, and then I'll send someone to inform you......"

After figuring out the identity of the little carpenter, Daddy Ma was quite polite to them.

The little carpenter thought for a while, and then said, "I'll go back first and discuss it with those people from the Great Marshal's Mansion." ”

He was going to go back to discuss with Shi Qingsheng, and as for Gu Baiguo, he stayed here and helped Daddy Ma dispense medicine, so that his injuries could be relieved at the moment.

For the little carpenter's decision, Ma Daddy didn't say much, but just said words of thanks repeatedly.

Out of the room and into the courtyard, the little carpenter chatted with Gu Baiguo for a few words, and then Gu Baiguo motioned to him to get some of the medicinal materials he needed - in the two months he went north, Gu Baiguo stuffed a lot of medicinal materials into the little carpenter's Luban Secret Seal.

Although there are not many of these things, they are complete enough and have everything you need.

After the little carpenter took out the herbs, he left Gu Baiguo here to connect with an old woman of the Ma family, and he left with the fourth aunt of Ma.

As he went out, he saw smoke billowing in the clearing, the pile of wood had burned, and the flames had swallowed up the corpses inside, and the family members next to him were crying profusely, and some had even fainted.

As for the shaman in the bird feather and the wooden mask, he was already dancing convulsively.

Back at the gate of Tunzi, the little carpenter called Shi Qingsheng and Uncle Yang over to explain the current situation to a few people.

When he heard the names of Qiao Huhui, Erlonghu and Fengqiao Gang, Uncle Yang couldn't help but take a breath.

The little carpenter asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Uncle Yang said: "The Fengqiao Gang is in Shandong, I don't know this, but Qiao Hu and Erlonghu are still quite famous in the realm outside the Guan, not only are there many masters, but also the leaders are quite famous, and they are all more righteous and chivalrous; The only drawback is that they are not very interesting, when the old man formed a master team, he recruited them several times, but they were all politely refused......"

The little carpenter chatted with Uncle Yang a few times along the way, and knew that he was from the old handsome master team, and was seconded by the young marshal Gong to form the old man of the team.

This person monitors all kinds of people in the Northeast all year round, and he is a very familiar person.

In this way, this Qiao Hu Club and Erlong Lake are quite good.

The little carpenter said: "Daddy Ma told me that we can have two choices, one is to settle here temporarily, he asked people to pack up a few rooms and let us stay, and the other is that we can also go back to Fengling Town first, and when the time comes, someone will be sent to inform our ......."

Shi Qingsheng said: "It's too far away from the town, it's too much time to come and go, it's better to stay here, and it's easy to know what the situation is." ”

Uncle Yang didn't answer, but asked the little carpenter: "What are your plans?" ”

The little carpenter said, "I want to go the third way." ”

When Shi Qingsheng heard this, his brows jumped, he looked at him with some surprise, and then said, "Are you going to go to that skateboard valley to have a look?" ”

The little carpenter nodded and said yes.

Shi Qingsheng was speechless, and said to him: "When you entered the tunzi just now, Liu Shuai chatted with a few people I knew, I listened to it on the side, and the people who ran back were scared enough, saying that as soon as they entered it, all kinds of monsters and evil things popped out of the dense fog, such as skinning tigers, hairy snakes, blood bats, etc., and dead people who could run without heads...... There is such a thing in the valley, and touching it is like looking for death......"

When the little carpenter heard this, his face did not show a trace of fear, but calmly told him the judgment of the master of the ring color and the others.

Shi Qingsheng saw that he didn't listen to persuasion, and said with a wry smile: "Thirteen, I know that you are very powerful, but as the saying goes, 'gentlemen don't stand under the wall', you just wait for people to come back in this tun, there is really no need to take that risk......"

But the little carpenter said, "What if they don't come back?" Where are you stuck? ”

Shi Qingsheng said helplessly: "Whether the master of the abstinence can help you cure the hidden disease, this is still unknown, and you can't just listen to Wang Baishan's words......

The little carpenter said seriously: "Brother Qingsheng, I have made up my mind, please don't persuade me anymore." ”

Shi Qingsheng saw that the little carpenter looked serious, sighed, and then said, "Since that's the case...... Then, I'll go with you. ”

Uncle Yang next to him interjected and said, "You are the captain, if you go, what will these people do?" ”

Shi Qingsheng turned his head and said to Uncle Yang: "This side of the team, please ask Uncle Yang for your help to take care of ......"

Uncle Yang smiled and said, "You are the captain appointed by the young marshal personally, and those people only recognize the warrant, not my old face." In this way, let me accompany Mr. Gan, firstly, I have more experience, and when I encounter things, I can also deal with them on the spot, and secondly, I am also very curious about this matter......"

He took the initiative to ask for help, which surprised both the little carpenter and Shi Qingsheng, but Uncle Yang was very persistent, Shi Qingsheng said a few more words, and finally nodded.

Then the little carpenter found Gan Wenfang and talked about his preparation to go into the mountains.

Gan Wenfang was a wise and self-protective character, and as the little carpenter expected, she chose to stay in the tunzi, waiting for them to finally return.

The little carpenter thought about it and told Gan Wenfang that he had entrusted Shi Qingsheng to help, and if he couldn't come back, Shi Qingsheng would help send her back to the northwest at that time, so that she didn't have to worry too much.

Hearing this, Gan Wenfang said solemnly to the little carpenter: "Take care." ”

Everything was negotiated, and the little carpenter returned to the Ma family's mansion with Ma Sigu, and talked to Ma Daddy about his decision, Ma Daddy nodded, and didn't say anything.

However, when he persuaded Gu Baiguo later, there was some trouble.

The little carpenter also repeatedly explained the importance of helping Ma Daddy and others who were also poisoned to suppress the evil poison, and even made a straight face, so that Gu Baiguo dispelled the idea of going with him.

After everything was done, the little carpenter went to the place where he was placed, met with everyone, and then after a brief communication with Uncle Yang, he prepared to leave.

At this time, Ma Sigu came over and blocked the two of them.

She then told the two that they didn't know the way, so she came over to help as a guide and took them to the skateboard valley at the bottom of West Peak.

The little carpenter refused without hesitation: "No." ”

Ma Lao Dad gave birth to a total of five sons, two daughters, except for the eldest daughter who married far away, and the third son Ma Laoxi and Ma Sigu, the rest of the children either died early or died at the hands of evil spirits.

If Ma Sigu follows them to the danger this time, and something happens, Ma Laoxi can't come back, I'm afraid that Ma Laoxi will have no children under his knees.

So he didn't promise.

Ma Sigu was annoyed, and immediately argued with the little carpenter, first saying that the other party looked down on her as a woman, and then told the little carpenter, saying that you two outsiders have no guide and can't even find the road......

She talked a lot, and at this time, a person came out next to her and said, "I'll be the guide." ”

When Ma Sigu heard it, she looked back and was a little shocked: "Brother Liu Shuai? ”

Liu Shuai stepped forward and said to the little carpenter, "When you discussed in the room, I heard it. I've been here for half a year, I've been to Mt. West Peak during the search, and I've even been to the entrance to Skateboard Valley, so I'm here to lead the way, no problem......"

The little carpenter and Uncle Yang glanced at each other, and then said slowly, "Are you sure you want to go?" ”

Liu Shuai nodded and said Well, I'll go.

Ma Sigu persuaded beside her: "Brother Liu Shuai, it's very dangerous over there now......"

Liu Shuai said to her sincerely: "Fourth aunt, I heard about the matter that Ying Futun went to the town to discuss with my uncle before, but I didn't expect it to be like this, so I'm sorry." I am bound to make up for it this time, and I hope you don't get me wrong......"

Ma Sigu's eyes were red, how could it be? I have always known that Brother Liu Shuai, you are a man who stands up to the sky.

The little carpenter waited for the two to say a few thoughtful words, then nodded and agreed to Liu Shuai.

Ma Sigu has a sentence that is right, without a guide, it is difficult for them to find the location of Skateboard Valley just based on maps and other people's descriptions, and even if they do, they may be delayed too much.

Therefore, Liu Shuai's joining is indeed a matter of charcoal in the snow.

After settling here, the three of them said goodbye to Yingfutun, and then did not ride a horse, but took a detour from behind the tunzi, and then touched into the deep mountains and dense forests.
