Chapter 59: Catching Ghosts
Zhang Tianduo glanced at the door and said, "If the two of them continue to fight like this, sooner or later, they will both lose, so you should go and persuade your senior brother." β
Shen Xinyan said angrily: "Senior brother has always been stubborn, except for the master, he can't listen to anyone's words. β
As soon as the conversation changed, she said hatefully: "It's all because the master made such a decision, the senior brother doesn't know how many times he has fought with people along the way, and Gu Yimen is afraid that he will be looked down upon from now on." β
From Shen Xinyan's words yesterday, Zhang Tianduo guessed some clues, but this is a private matter of other sects, and it is inconvenient for him to ask.
How do you know that Shen Xinyan has no scheming at all, and continued: "We, the four generations of disciples of Guyimen, are based on peace of mind and four characters, and the master sent the disciples of the Xinzi, Pingzi and Qi generations to branches in various places, and only brought the disciples of the Hezi generation who have been in the beginner for less than three years, isn't this going to give the lives of the junior brothers and sisters in vain?" The senior brother clearly knew this, but he still tended to be inflammatory. β
Zhang Tianduo couldn't help but glance at Shen Xinyan, and smiled bitterly in his heart, Shen Xinyan This woman is too naΓ―ve, she actually said to a stranger casually, no wonder Yixin fought with people many times along the way, it seems that most of this disaster was caused by her, but this also shows that she is a person without scheming.
Seeing that Zhang Tianduo didn't speak, Shen Xinyan asked, "You just said that you are a disciple of the Mai Sect, who is your master?" Did he also go to the Tianmen Dao Society? β
Zhang Tianduo nodded and said, "My master's name is Zhang Huaigong, and he will also go to participate in the Tianmen Dao Meeting." β
"Zhang Huaigong? Haven't you heard of it, is your master amazing? Shen Xinyan thought for a moment, shook her head and asked.
Zhang Tianduo smiled and said nothing.
Shen Xinyan wanted to ask again, but Yixin and Yan Feng both walked in, followed by a group of juniors from their respective families.
Zhang Tianduo and Shen Xinyan were stunned, they didn't expect them to finish the fight so quickly.
Shen Xinyan got up and walked over and asked, "Senior brother, have you decided the winner?" β
Yida's eyes have never left Yan Feng since he entered the door, and he said coldly: "Hmph, we will divide the victory and defeat at night!" β
"At night?" Shen Xinyan was stunned for a moment, and asked a person beside her, "Third Senior Brother, what happened?" β
The third senior brother glanced at Yixin and said, "Someone suggested that the senior brother and that Yan Feng go to the Yibao Villa in Jijiao Mountain, I heard that it is haunted. β
"Haunted? What to do there? β
The third senior brother glanced at Yixin again, and when he saw that he didn't react, he said, "Senior brother and that Yan Feng agreed, whoever catches that ghost first will have the better ability." β
After yesterday's battle, Yixin and Yan Feng both knew each other well, and understood that the other party and himself were only between the two of them, unless it was a fight of life and death, even if they fought for a few days and nights, they would not be able to tell the winner.
It's just that there is no deep hatred between the two, and they won't really fight each other with their lives, and if someone makes such a suggestion at this time, it will naturally be accepted by the two.
Whoever can subdue the ghost first will have greater ability, this is an agreement between the two of them, they don't want to lose, and Yan Feng doesn't want to lose, so the two of them made an appointment to go up the mountain tonight to catch the ghost.
Zhang Tianduo, who was listening to the sidelines, vaguely felt that this matter was a little strange, haunted? He stayed in Jieyunzhuang for a few months, saw a lot of dead corpses, encountered a lot of strange things, and even encountered corpse changes, but he had never seen a ghost, he once asked Fu Bowen, whether there are ghosts in the world, but unfortunately there are ghosts and even Fu Bowen can't answer, because Fu Bowen has seen many examples of ghosts, but has never seen real ghosts.
However, Fu Bowen believes that ghosts are real, but ghosts are easily unwilling to appear, and they are rare for mortals to see, and only certain people or people with great skills can see them.
Zhang Tianduo was a little noncommittal about Fu Bowen's statement, he even felt that it was really strange for Fu Bowen to do this line of work but not be sure whether there were ghosts, and he felt that since dead corpses can be driven by people and walk like living people, it is not strange that there are ghosts in the world.
But seeing is believing, no matter how you guess, you have to see it with your own eyes to be true, thinking of this, he decided not to leave.
Shen Xinyan was still persuading Yixin to refuse this meaningless fight, but Yixin was obviously already iron-hearted, and he had to separate the victory from Yan Feng.
Those accompanying fellow disciples and brothers also supported the two of them to divide the high and low, and Shen Xinyan, who was weak and weak, tried hard to persuade to no avail, and finally could only go back to the room and sulk alone.
Zhang Tianduo and the shopkeeper continued the guest room for one more day, he had already made up his mind, and decided to quietly follow him at night to see what this so-called ghost looked like, of course, he did not agree with the haunting, and always felt that things were a little strange, because this matter was too coincidental and logical.
Now that the method of dividing the winner has been agreed, the two groups are no longer angry with each other, and although they stare at each other with horizontal eyebrows during the meal, they are also safe with each other.
In the evening, after Yixin and Yan Feng instructed their respective disciples, they both left the Good Luck Inn.
Zhang Tianduo had been hiding in an alley for a long time and waiting, seeing the two of them out of the inn, he hurriedly retracted his body, and after waiting for a while, he poked his head out and looked, and saw that the two had gone far away, and was about to follow, but saw Shen Xinyan walking out of another alley and quietly following the two.
"Is she going to go with her?" Zhang Tianduo frowned slightly, and hurriedly followed.
Jijiao Mountain is not far from Mawang Town, out of Mawang Town, go east for half an hour, and then come to the foot of Jijiao Mountain.
Chicken foot mountain shape as its name, just like a chicken foot to step on the earth, this mountain has three entrances, the mountain is full of mulberry trees, at this time is the fruit ripening period, look at it from afar, the mountain is red and green intersection, endless, there is a different flavor.
Yibao Villa is located on the top of the chicken foot mountain, this village was a large local household several decades ago, and later it is said that it was looted by mountain bandits, and the whole village up and down 20 people died cleanly, and then it continued to spread the haunted rumor in the village, so that no one cared about it, and gradually abandoned it.
When Yixin and Yan Feng came to the gate of Yibao Villa, both of them were deeply surprised.
When they came, they inquired about the situation of Yibao Villa, and they all said that it had been abandoned for a long time and had not been approached for many years, and the reason why they were surprised was that this villa was far more dilapidated than the townspeople had said it was coming.
After a moment's hesitation, the two looked at each other and pushed the door at the same time.
As soon as the village door was pushed, a gust of wind rushed out of it, which made the two of them shiver.
Inside the gate of the village is a large courtyard, which is overgrown with waist-length weeds, and on the front and east sides of the compound are halls and houses, many of which have collapsed and are scattered with broken walls.
To the surprise of the two again, there were several coffins in the hall, and the gloomy atmosphere inside was chilling.
"It's strange that the townspeople didn't say there were coffins here." Ichishin muttered.
Yan Feng didn't hear that there was a coffin here, he glanced at it and sneered: "What's the matter, I'm afraid?" β
Yixin raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and shouted: "Who is afraid? β
The two of them glared at each other and ran towards the hall at the same time.
Shen Xinyan, who was following behind, also followed, she hid behind a half-collapsed wall on the east side, looked over, and suddenly, a hand was on her shoulder, so frightened that she opened her mouth and screamed, but found that she couldn't shout.
Just as Shen Xinyan's heart was beating wildly in fright, a familiar voice came into her ears: "Shhh, it's me, don't make a sound." β
Looking back, it turned out to be Zhang Tianduo.
Shen Xinyan pulled away Zhang Tianduo's hand covering her mouth, frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?" β
Zhang Tianduo laughed in a low voice: "It's the same as you." β
"This has nothing to do with you, you go back quickly."
"Hehe, I want to see what the ghost looks like, don't worry, I won't affect your senior brother and Yan Feng's victory."
Shen Xinyan was a little puzzled by Zhang Tianduo, thought about it and said, "What's so good about ghosts?" You'd better go back. β
"Do you really want me to go back?"
Shen Xinyan nodded fiercely.
Zhang Tianduo stood up suddenly and said, "Okay, then I'll say hello to your senior brother and leave." β
Shen Xinyan was so frightened that she grabbed him and said in a low voice: "Okay, even if I'm afraid of you, you can only watch, but you are not allowed to mess around." β
Zhang Tianduo smiled slightly and asked in a low voice, "Do you know who the person who proposed to go up the mountain to catch ghosts?" β
Shen Xinyan stared at Yixin and Yan Feng in the lobby, and replied, "It's the old beggar from yesterday." β
"Is it him?!" Zhang Tianduo was stunned, and felt more and more that something was wrong with this matter.
"Hey, what are they doing, senior brother?" Shen Xinyan suddenly wondered.
Zhang Tianduo looked at it smoothly, and saw Yixin and Yan Feng circling around a coffin, and their faces looked like they were facing a great enemy, as if there was something in the coffin.
A soft sound of "bang" came, Zhang Tianduo and Shen Xinyan only felt a chill in their backs, this sound clearly came from the coffin, no wonder Yixin and Yan Feng looked like they were facing a great enemy.
"Could it be that the ghost is in the coffin?" Shen Xinyan's voice trembled a little.
Zhang Tianduo also felt a little hairy in his heart, and he said in a stiff tone: "No." β
At this moment, there was another "bump" sound from the coffin, this time the movement was even greater, Yixin and Yan Feng jumped a few steps away at the same time, and shouted: "Who is inside?" β
As soon as the cheers fell, I heard a rapid "bumper" sound from the coffin resting on the wooden shelf, and the whole coffin shook violently, as if something was about to break out of the lid.
Yan Feng shouted again: "Who is hiding inside and pretending to be a ghost? Get out! β
As soon as his words fell, he heard the entire coffin lid flip open, and a white shadow shot out of the coffin, not to mention that Yixin and Yan Feng couldn't see what was running out, even Zhang Tianduo and Shen Xinyan couldn't see what the white shadow was.
The two of them shouted at the same time, turned around and threw themselves at the white shadow, but as soon as the two of them took a step, they felt a huge force hit their chests, and they both screamed at the same time, and fell backwards.
Shen Xinyan saw that her heart was hurt, and she rushed out from behind the wall with an exclamation, and Zhang Tianduo couldn't pull it even if she wanted to.
However, when Shen Xinyan walked around from behind the wall, the white shadow disappeared without a trace, as if the white shadow had never appeared, and there was still an eerie silence all around.
She was stunned, hurriedly ran into the lobby, helped Yixin and said, "Senior brother, are you okay?" β
Yixin coughed, stood up and scolded, "Little junior sister, what are you doing?" β
"I'm worried about you, why are you so angry."
Yan Feng also stood up at this time, he glanced around, and said in a deep voice, "What the hell is that?" It hurts me so much. β
was still scolding Shen Xinyan's heart when he heard this, and he was stunned, and said: "It doesn't matter what the hell he is, whoever subdues him is capable." β
"Hmph, then you're doomed!" Yan Feng replied coldly, took out a spirit talisman from his body, and took the lead in running out of the lobby.
